The Academy’s Deceased Ate It All - The Academy’s Deceased Ate It All chapter 337
It took a lot of time to calm Yuna Lee, who was trembling and gibbling at us, saying that he was a ghost looking at us, that it would relieve my regrets, so please calm down.
“Yeah, that was it… .”
After hearing the brief explanation, Lee Yu-na nodded as if she could barely understand.
In fact, it seemed that it was only after we alternately fidgeting with Sooyoung and Suyeong’s forearms and shoulders before they came to believe that we were living people and not ghosts, but to protect her pride, I decided not to mention it.
“I’m really glad, though, that both of them are safe… .”
He looked at her as he sighed in relief and asked cautiously.
“Has it been more than a month since we disappeared?”
“Uh… Exactly a month or two?”
As we ate the food she brought, we asked her what had happened.
It’s more delicious than I imagined. When I and Han Soo-young were surprised, she answered with a shyness.
“I only made these for a month. Kimbap, sandwiches, and chicken.”
After muttering like that, she coughed and started talking.
“priority… I will briefly tell you what has happened since you disappeared.”
I said, ‘So… ‘ and lost his luck.
“On that day, you two disappeared in the light, and everyone went into a panic. Even I, at that time, noticed that the magic or energy I felt at that time was not usually unusual, but Professor Alice, Mr. Evangeline, and my sister were also there, right? Above all, it was the first time I had seen Belluna-san so embarrassed.”
A small trembling sigh escaped as the memory of that time came to mind.
“Everyone talked a lot about what to do there, and there was even an argument… For now, it was decided to leave that place, where we fought the Seven Evils, as it is. After that, he said that he might have flown somewhere, so let’s do a thorough search. Because Evangeline said that Jihyeok, Sooyoung, and the two of you were caught up in the light, you could definitely feel the unique energy of space-based magic. That’s why I believed that everyone was caught up in magic and forcibly involved in a space transition.”
world tree clan.
ten ten.
Belluna.
Even their own search and search guilds.
It is said that they wandered in search of us by mobilizing all possible means.
“By the way… Time keeps ticking, no clues… Still, everyone didn’t give up and worked hard to find them. Because the two of you died so absurdly… .”
She gulped and swallowed hard.
“… Because not everyone believed it would. Then, it was about a week or so ago. That’s when Professor Alice found an old record. A record of cases completely similar to the two of you.”
She said with a sad but bitter smile.
“Their faces, their voices, their breaths, not even their footprints or traces were to be found again. It was written that way.”
He said that it was the starting point, and gradually some of the people in the party were frustrated or accepted.
And at the end of a month, he was practically giving up.
“Since this is an unofficial event, your chapter… I couldn’t even hold a ceremony properly. Most of all, there were things that the closest people didn’t recognize, so each one of us, like me or Ivan, took care of it… .”
“People close?”
“Ah, yes.”
Yuuna nodded her head.
“In your case, Jihyuk is known as the world tree clan, right? So Ye-eun said that even if a funeral was to be held, it would be held in a small way within the clan’s estate. If swimming is the same… Hyeonu refused because he had to talk to Master, who is his guardian.”
At her words, I nodded slightly.
Sooyoung let out a deep sigh when she heard that the story must have gone to her master, that is, Nam Hyeonhwa.
“… Did anything serious happen or anything like that? How are you all doing now?”
At that question, Lee Yu-na paused and immediately smiled an ambiguous smile mixed with embarrassment and hesitation.
“Well… Well, first of all, nothing serious. Nothing serious… .”
She let out a sigh that she didn’t know how many times.
“Even if I tried to hide it, it wouldn’t make any sense anyway, so I’ll just tell you everything. Everyone has big and small problems.”
“… … .”
To be honest, I thought so.
I’m ashamed to say it with my own mouth, but it was difficult to express at the level that Yeeun Lee and Yeseul Jin were very fond of me.
In addition, Choi Hyun-woo must have been very shocked to see Han Soo-young, who is more than a family member, disappeared from his eyes.
“Once Yesul is… I’m half-dead… .”
“… … .”
From the very beginning, there was a terrifying sound.
“Actually, that… I tried to do something bad… After talking about something with my older sister and Yeeun, fortunately, there was no sign of that happening. Instead, he was locked up in his room and lost all contact and lost contact… … My sister-in-law is going to take me away now and take care of her.”
Jin Ye-seul is said to be taking care of Jin Ye-seul.
She was also very sad and sorry about what happened to us, but as soon as she saw her younger sister Jin Ye-seul completely collapse, she grabbed herself and said that she was taking care of her.
“Senior Yeeun took a leave of absence and went back to Youngji. And I heard that Jihyuk is still looking for traces of you and Sooyoung… From what I heard, no one could approach me except for Shin Woo-seok and a few close friends.”
This one was equally serious.
He stopped talking and quietly asked Lee Yu-na, who was slowly looking over her eyes.
“What about the other children? Okay, how’s Ivan? Obviously the arm… .”
“Oh, Ivan is fine. Evangeline and Professor Alice, as well as my upcoming older sister, Laura, helped me. In particular, she said that her sister-in-law regularly monitors her condition and gives her medicine.”
but… .
“Ivan is also in bad shape. Obviously, his arm was fine, but his bow skills were very… It’s not like it used to be. That’s why practical classes are all excluded. He said he wasn’t used to it yet, but in my opinion… .”
She kept her mouth shut for a while as if she felt sorry for her, and continued to tell stories and current affairs of the people she was with or related to that day.
“Is it Ahn Do-hoon? He’s still doing pretty well. After you disappeared, I became violent again and was sanctioned at the Academy several times… .”
“Cass Lyle and Professor Alice have left the academy completely. I heard that he is living in Lee Myung-jun’s guild, the Hammer of the Brain Gong, but I don’t know the details.”
“All the members of the Ten Rivers went out to find you, especially Myeongjun Lee, Evangeline, and Laura.”
“Especially, it seems that Evangeline was very heartbroken. I had announced that I would stop all activities externally for a while and then go into semi-retreat.”
“Come on, wait a minute. Wait a minute, Yuna.”
While listening to the story, Sooyoung carefully asked her.
“What about Hyunwoo? Hyeonu, how is he doing?”
“ah… .”
Lee Yu-na, who was very embarrassed by her question, seemed to have made up her mind and bit her lip.
“Well, first of all, Hyeonu took a leave of absence? Originally, the professor in charge and we were barely arguing that he was dropping out… .”
“Come on, resign?!”
Horrified by the word of resignation, Han Soo-young immediately contorted her face and burst into anger.
“No, whoever wants her to drop out. uh? If something like that happened to me, I’d rather be more focused on myself and work hard! Aren’t you ashamed to see Master? No, even if I’m sorry to Master, I should do better! I really am this kid… !”
Perhaps he could not stand the rising anger, he reached out his hand to Han Soo-young, who was voicing in a harsh voice, telling him to calm down first.
The problem was that, despite Sooyoung’s appearance like that, Yoona was just keeping an eye on her.
I could instinctively notice that there was something more here.
The problem was that Sooyoung noticed it too.
“… What are you doing, Yuna? no way… What else is there?”
At her bloody question, Yuuna gulped and swallowed her saliva.
Then, rustling, he pulled something out and began to carefully spread it on the floor.
“this… It’s a list of criminals.”
What she began to spread out on the floor was a list of hunters, heroes, or capable people who were wanted for committing a crime.
They are semi-deprived of their rights, and those who have formally qualified as hunters or heroes are given the right to arrest or kill them at any time.
‘… In the original story, Hyerin Lee and Yuzuki Horie extended that right.’
In the original story, Lee Hye-rin and Horie Yuzuki, who are half darkened by the death of Lee Myung-jun, become hardliners against criminals, strengthening their existing rights and granting the same rights to ordinary people.
But why the hell is this list of criminals now? .
“for a moment.”
A thought ran through my mind.
Han Soo-young was also thinking the same thing as me, so her complexion was getting white and tired.
“Of course, it could be my mistake. However, that is… .”
After a while, I stopped at one page and pushed us to take a better look.
And as soon as he saw it, Han Soo-young let out a rough breath.
In the list, there was a person whose face was covered with a strange mask, and who was wearing rags so that he could not even recognize his body shape.
However, the sword of Choi Hyun-woo was clearly in his hand.
It was certain.
There was no way I could be mistaken.
It must have been because there was only one in this world that the blacksmith of Yado forged the scales of my sword with his sword.
Below the photo, which was taken in a bloodthirsty form, was written briefly about what crime he was wanted for.
[Unauthorized trespassing of important national facilities / seizure of military equipment for the purpose of civil war and national flag disobedience]
“ah… … .”
“Hey, hey! Swim!”
“Soo, Sooyoung!”
Han Soo-young let out a groan and sat down as it was, and I and Yu-na were startled and supported her.
Below us, a wanted letter from Choi Hyun-woo with the words [Life or Death] was fluttering.
* * *
First of all, we decided to put off finding Hyeonu last.
It was also because there was no way to immediately find him, who was running away with a wanted order issued.
I had to let everyone know that we were still alive, and above all, I had to find Laune and Sbangali, who have been waiting for me for over 300 years.
“uh… Maybe I’ll have to go and show my face to believe it.”
When I asked if it would be okay to talk over the phone, Yuna just smiled slightly.
And while I agreed with her, I borrowed her cell phone.
An alarm sounded for a while, and then the other party answered the call.
– Yes.
It was a blunt yet extremely business-like voice that was completely different from the time he was talking to me.
– What’s going on, Yuna-san? You call all of a sudden like this.
He took a deep breath and opened his mouth quietly.
“Mr. Wooseok, I’m fine.”
— … … .
Shin Woo-seok, who can be said to be Lee Ye-eun’s henchman and Lee Yu-na’s senior, was silent.
Moments later, he answered in a voice of slight contempt and anger.
— … Yuna Miss. I didn’t know you could do such a frivolous and short-thinking thing. I think I misunderstood the person.
“Mr. Wooseok, I really do. This is Yoo Ji-hyuk.”
In case he hangs up, I quickly added a story that only he and I would know.
“I still remember the story Wooseok told me that day. to my sister… So, is it okay to be beaten by the head of the family?”
– what… Wait, please… !
Soon, a squeaking sound was heard.
After a while, he asked in a trembling voice, as if confused but disbelieving.
― Come on, maybe… … I hope you are really a master… ?
“Yes.”
After a short reply, I immediately asked him.
“I want to see you. It’s hard for me to move right now… I’ll send you the location right away, so could you please send me someone if possible?”
― I, I will go there right now! Just send us your location… Hey!
Afterwards, Shin Woo-seok contacted someone somewhere and ordered to prepare a helicopter and a car separately right now.
― Do you need anything else or do you have anything to say?
“Oh, not right now. I need a cell phone… .”
― I will prepare everything including them.
“Who are you? First of all, I would like to say something to the head of the family… .”
― That is, that… The lady did not allow access to any of her close associates, including me.
Shin Woo-seok continued the story in a very cautious voice.
― In addition, you only receive calls from us once a day. Since the connection is unilateral, I can’t even contact you from this side.
“Yes… .”
In the end, it was said that I had to go and meet him in person.
Likewise, I nodded at Lee Ye-eun’s serious condition.
“For now, I will wait. And, if possible, would you mind contacting the people you are talking to right now?”
― Yes, tell me.
I immediately asked him to tell Professor Alice Blesbuck, including the sipgangs, that I and Han Soo-young were alive.
After I hung up the phone, I returned it to Yuuna, and she looked at me for a moment and asked.
“… Have you met Yeeun senior? What about Yesul?”
“I need to meet Ye-seul right away.”
Saying that, he spoke directly to her, who was strangely subdued, as if he were making an excuse.
“… It’s not because I want to put Ye Seul behind the scenes. It’s all for a reason.”
First of all, it was the World Tree clan, including Lee Ye-eun, who had the influence to quickly spread the fact that we are alive to other people without causing any misunderstanding.
In the case of Jin Ye-seul, there is no way to contact him right now because he is the furthest and has lost contact with him.
And finally… .
‘I guess this must have been the trace I found in the territory right after I defeated Svengalli… .’
Laune and Sbengali.
It was because the place where the energy of the two was felt was none other than the territory of the World Tree.
