Parallel World Academy - Parallel World Academy chapter 120

Episode 120 Interlude.(3)

* * *

When I arrived at the training ground that was the promised place, an academy staff greeted me as if waiting.

“Cadet Park Seong-jin, come this way.”

“I thought it was going to be held at the training ground, wasn’t it?”

“The president has changed his mind. If I were confident, I would only be interfering with the training of other cadets, so I thought it would be better to practice in a separate place.”

“That would be it.”

To be sure, taking Chloe’s tutoring didn’t do any good for the outside world.

as well as the instrument.

It would be much better to teach quietly in a quiet place.

“By the way, where are you going?”

“You know that professors and T-Class cadets rarely train at regular training grounds, right?”

“Yes, of course.”

“There is also a separate training room used by the president and the dean. I am going there.”

The employee turned his head forward again as if this was enough explanation.

I also didn’t have any more questions, so I silently followed him.

* * *

“Then, I will go back.”

“take care.”

The size of a large auditorium is not unreasonable.

And four training rooms large enough to fill the large space.

As it was a space that was not mentioned in the work, it felt strange.

“It’s surprising. you didn’t know about this place Of course I thought you knew.”

Chloe, who appeared out of nowhere, was talking naturally.

If there is, give it a sign that it exists.

What else will suddenly pop out from behind as if they wanted to be surprised?

However, I was well aware of this aspect of Chloe, so I responded in a tone that was no different from usual.

“is that so? I think it’s weird to know.”

“My little fox is a little different. I’m not at all surprised by things that would be very unfamiliar to common cadets, but I’m just curious to see these things, so it’s just a new approach.”

Hearing that explanation, I wondered if it could be seen that way enough.

It would be strange if a guy who had always been consistent with his ‘I know everything’ attitude suddenly made a gesture that he didn’t know anything.

“Because not everyone knows me.”

“Anyway, let’s move on to training. I don’t have that much time.”

I followed the word without a groan.

It was rare for Chloe, who was in such a hurry to hand over her duties to Oscar, to make time for an ordinary cadet like me.

“So, what are you trying to teach? I think I know a little bit about it.”

“It’s a way to use the nature of your mana and thought power.”

“What is your nature?”

“Yeah, seeing it in person would be the fastest. I’ll show you in the training room.”

For some reason, I followed Chloe, who had a very excited expression on her face, into the training room.

Then, a completely new sensation that I had never felt before began tickling my whole body.

I could instinctively recognize the identity of that strange stimulus.

called Mana.

However, I got the impression that it was significantly different from the mana I had encountered so far.

I had never seen such a large amount of mana in one place, and even the sensation transmitted through the skin was unique.

“Now do you understand what the nature of mana is?”

“It is. It’s soft and warm. Still, it feels so far away, something that reminds me of the past.”

“That is the characteristic of Awoken who use mana itself. Because when you use mana, the nature of your unique ideological power comes out. It’s a feature that doesn’t appear in Awakened people who simply consume mana as a resource.”

“Aren’t the presidents both sides?”

“It is not. But the point I’m trying to say is that all Awoken who deal with mana have their own character revealed in their mana. Would you have felt it if it wasn’t for me?”

I guess I know roughly what you’re talking about.

It must mean the pressure and chill that leaked from Nihilis.

Until now, I thought it was just the atmosphere, but when I remember that the energy got stronger each time I used the sword, I had no choice but to interpret it as closer to the nature that Chloe was talking about.

“Right. I didn’t know that before, but I think I’ll know for sure if you tell me.”

“Don’t you notice something strange here? I can feel such a strong character just from the mana scattered in the air. Why doesn’t the Managlaive’s blade, which is in a state of extreme saturation, not have such a quality?”

I heard it and it is

He didn’t have a lot of experience fighting a sword with Nihilis, but it wasn’t enough to say that he had few.

However, I had never felt anything like that in the sword of Nihilis.

“It’s strange.”

“That’s right. It’s because the lenses and prisms that create Managlaive’s blades remove their properties.”

“You mean that it loses its properties as it passes through prisms and lenses, right?”

“Exactly. Conversely, does that mean that mana aggregates that have not gone through lenses and prisms still have properties?”

“Besides that, I’ve never heard of old-time sword aura users having special abilities.”

“Of course. Those people are ‘prosecutors’. Since they aren’t the kind of people who focus on dealing with mana itself, it’s only natural. There would be no room to raise the proficiency of such trivial things. However, you are not fundamentally a prosecutor.”

They came back around, but there was only one conclusion.

He learned swords, but he wasn’t a swordsman.

It was an evaluation that accurately analyzed me without a firm identity.

He said he was being taught swordsmanship from Nihilis, but because I was more of a bastard than a swordsman.

“Yes.”

“After all, you are a guy with no special features. Of course, in reality, just like in a game, shooting a swordsman skill makes you a swordsman, and shooting a wizard skill doesn’t make you an archmage. However, most of them have a role to play, even if faintly. Just like in the game, we divide tanks, dealers, and supporters.”

“Then what should I do? Do I still have to take the skill again?”

“No. What is one of the characteristics of RPGs in which there are jockeys?”

“Are there a lot of perverts?”

Perhaps my answer was quite funny, Chloe grabbed her stomach and smiled.

I didn’t know that Chloe, who was unparalleled in the middle of the crowd, could understand jokes.

You know more about the culture that young people enjoy than you think.

As I got older and there was nothing to do, did I even start playing games?

Or, did you come to know it naturally through conversations with the cadets?

It was nice to have good communication either way.

Because Aina and Priscilla don’t understand this at all.

“Yeah, right. A lot of perverts do it. It’s also similar to what I was trying to say. The answer I was thinking of was, ‘There are a lot of people who only play for the king’s ears.’”

“Probably so. After all, being a mischievous character means that if you are strong, you can do anything. There are a lot of people who want to play the scoundrel because they want to be a mischievous person.”

“You are just one of those perverts. The skill shots are a mess, and it’s too late to shoot again now. It feels like a representative of a character that was nurtured incorrectly.”

“That’s a bit too much. It sounds like my life was ruined.”

“But is it true? You never feel like you’re a professionally nurtured character. It’s like a game novice or young kids taking a picture when they open a new skill. After that, I found out later that he was ruined because he was a bastard, do you feel the same way?”

That’s the perfect analogy.

It’s true that the circumstances weren’t good, so I grew up with a dick.

However, it was a very sad story for me to hear.

Still, I knew that I would stop doing it in moderation, but Chloe’s harsh criticism, unaware of my circumstances, did not stop.

Judging by the fact that he enjoyed my reaction, it seemed that it was also a small revenge for the joke I made yesterday.

In any case, it was a dreadful old man.

“So, what is the story you want to tell? Do you want me to reincarnate?”

“That’s a little too much, and I’ll make you even a kingfisher, this is the story.”

“how?”

“First of all, the first thing you need to do is increase your mana and affinity. If your body isn’t used to mana, your temper won’t manifest easily. Would you like to come a little closer?”

I shrugged and walked over to Chloe.

The moment she touched my forehead, the point of view changed to a third person’s point of view, not ‘me’, and my collapsed body caught my eye.

However, the surprise has yet to come.

Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲

My vision quickly returned to normal, but pain as if squeezing my whole body began to surround me.

“Sigh… !”

“Well, the procedure is perfect, after all, I am not dead yet!”

What kind of crazy sh*t is that?

You put me in this pain.

However, as if Chloe didn’t care about my situation, she hummed and continued what she was doing.

“Heh heh heh, it’s been a long time since I did this job.”

She snapped her finger, creating a bathtub full of a mysterious liquid.

On the surface, it looked like ordinary water, but it felt like a formalin solution, was it simply because of my mood?

I couldn’t help but feel that way of dragging my body that couldn’t even move one step, and trying to drop it there.

“Now, let’s take a deep breath and come out.”

‘After all, this year was the craziest year. I would never have accepted it… ‘

With that thought, my consciousness sank beneath this cold liquid.

A whitish light crept through between the eyes.

It was strangely dark and dull, like the light from the fluorescent lamp of the house I used to live in, and I felt nostalgic.

Am I finally back home, out of the strange fictional world?

That being said, I don’t have any memories of living with an older sister like this.

Still, because of the familiar feeling, I had no choice but to force my body, which hardly listened to me, to stand upright.

“Oh, it finally happened! My test subject!”

… Then yes.

could you go back

I don’t know what’s so good about that person that he’s even clapping like that.

The moment I thought that I was lucky that I didn’t become a human specimen.

“Kek! Khehe!”

An unidentified fluid that had filled his lungs began to pour out of his esophagus.

This process was also quite painful, but compared to what I had been through a while ago, it was nothing but new blood.

“What happened?”

I barely recalled all of that and asked about the situation a while ago, which reminded me of a scene from a horror movie.

“I used a method to adapt your body to mana as quickly as possible. After severing the soul for a while, I filled the empty body with mana. Then I put my soul back in. Of course, there is considerable heat and pain during this process, so they are soaked in a cold solution of painkillers. Oh, it’s not a strange liquid, so don’t worry. It’s called perfluorodecalin, a liquid that you can breathe in.”

I don’t quite understand what you mean.

Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲

Maybe it was because I was dizzy, but the feeling that I didn’t want to understand was bigger.

Because I didn’t want to know the thinking of a crazy bitch who took a method that normal people wouldn’t even try.

“So, what about me now?”

“It was truly a complete disgrace. Try moving yourself.”

I lightly stepped on the steps and waved my fists,

… Does this make sense?
