The Academy’s Deceased Ate It All - The Academy’s Deceased Ate It All chapter 342

Who the hell are you talking about?

If I had to pick the one most closely related to this place, it would be Yuno, but now he’s sealed, but not dead.

If so, is it Milited, who is the most relevant?

Judging by time, he was the first, so this one seemed more likely.

However, it was clear that it would take a little longer, just like the powers of Margot, Sbangali, and Minerva, so it was time to think about it.

“Choi Hyun-woo.”

Leto muttered his name quietly.

Upon hearing that name, Sooyoung and the other children’s expressions hardened in an instant.

“Are you an old man’s friend?”

“… Right, but how did you know?”

Leto blinked those big eyes for a moment.

“The master told me. There are probably many close friends with the old man, and in some sense we will hear or know his name. And watch.”

Then, while rustling, he pulled out a wanted badge from his arms and saw Sooyoung taking a deep breath.

“It’s just been rumored here and there… .”

“Oh, it won’t be, miss. This is Charisna from one of our colleagues, and there is a person who is very good at collecting information. Because he brought it.”

Leto sighed in embarrassment and made an excuse and cleared his throat.

“I wondered if the first thing the old man would give us an order was about him… I did an investigation just in case.”

To be honest, I was a little surprised by his words.

Because it meant that he knew about me and those around him for a long time and was watching.

“Hey, old man?”

I frowned for a moment at Leto’s call, then immediately shook my head.

“No, I’m sorry, Leto. I’ve been thinking for a while… So, how much do you know about Hyeonu?”

“It’s about what you robbed and what you’ve been up to. I don’t know where you are now.”

Leto opened his mouth when he told me to explain something quickly.

“The thing he stole is something called a metronome.”

“metronome?”

If it was a metronome, it was definitely something that ticked and showed the beat.

There’s no way it’s really that metronome, and just hearing the name, I couldn’t figure out what it was used for.

“Simply put, it is an object that can be repeated over and over again from one’s own memory or experience.”

His explanation was this:

Although it is said that the owner of the object can repeat memories or experiences over and over, it is not a very useful object. It can only be used for training purposes.

In other words, it is impossible to ask a person you have met in the past and get an answer, or to find out information that the owner does not know.

In a nutshell, it was a training ground that you could just carry and use, and it was just that.

“Theoretically, if you use the metronome well, you can continue to develop powerful hunters and heroes without time constraints. … But the risk was so great that it was discontinued.”

According to his explanation, it was understandable to some extent that Hyeonu defeated Ose Evans.

Perhaps he continued to practice his training until he became strong enough to defeat one of the Ten Gang using that object.

Literally keep going until you beat your opponent in memory and experience.

“Dangerous?”

Leto looked at Han Soo-young and carefully told the story.

“… If his mental power is weak, he will be buried in the memories and experiences of the past and die or become an idiot. In fact, everyone who took part in the metronome experiment was like that and stopped using it.”

“… … .”

She shut her mouth.

Leto was perplexed at the sight, then waved his hand and said:

“Ha, but no need to worry right now, since he’s been using it a few times and he’s been fine! This lowly thing, I swear in the name of its master, has never seen anyone so strong in spirit!”

“… Did you say that you know roughly how Hyeonu has been? Could you explain that too?”

The gigantic half ogre nodded naively, though he was very restless, wondering if he had made a mistake.

“Actually, I have nothing to say about it. After taking the metronome and using it to train, he fought and defeated Evans, the Ose of the Ten Rivers, who found him while he was training, and he continued to hide. And it’s definitely there… .”

When Leto gave the address, Sooyoung let out a small sigh as if lamenting.

“what’s the matter?”

“This is the address of the orphanage where Hyeonu and I used to live. A place where I was before I even met Master.”

She frowned as if she remembered bad memories.

“It’s been at least five years since we closed our doors… Because it was designated as a dangerous area, all the residents in the vicinity also moved to other places.”

“Then it would have been a better place to hide.”

He nodded and asked him one more time.

“Does the saying that you’ve been hiding for a while isn’t there now?”

“Yes that’s right. After winning a fight with a woman, I ran away again.”

“Woman?”

“Yes, she was a young woman with pure white hair, and she used a sword.”

“… … .”

“… … .”

Me and Sooyoung kept their mouths shut.

White hair, woman, swordsman.

Because he knew immediately who these three were pointing to.

“… Where has Hyeonu gone now?”

Leto shook his head.

“sorry. I don’t know more than that.”

“Then let me ask you. If it’s okay with you, Leto, would you like to ask other colleagues as well?”

At my words, he nodded with a solemn expression.

“The elder’s request is our joy.”

He then bowed his head as if bowing loudly.

“Don’t worry, we’ll find it in half a day at the latest.”

“I have to move as quickly as possible. There must be people chasing after Hyeonu even at this moment, and above all, if the side effects are so severe, we must prevent them from being used again before something happens.”

Saying that, Ivan repeated clenching and opening his fists.

“I said leto. Is it possible to know when Yeseul’s work will end? If it takes a long time, I would rather Nana Yuna and Sooyoung. Even like this, I think it would be better for the three of us to go first and take a look.”

“I don’t know that either. If you are qualified, it will be over soon, and if you are not, you will not be able to finish it in days or days.”

Leto, who had been talking up to that point, raised one corner of his mouth as if sneering in surprise.

“But, in this Leto’s view… It is very disrespectful to say this to an old man’s close friend, but it is true that the woman lacks a lot compared to our master. I’m sure you won’t be able to pass the exam even if it’s been a month.”

As soon as he spoke in a confident tone, someone snorted.

The sound of walking up and down the stone stairs.

familiar voice.

“okay? If so, I am very sorry.”

The person who walked up was Jin Ye-seul.

She was a little filthy, unlike before she was given the test.

She looked at Leto with a smirk, then slowly looked at me.

“… I’m here.”

Seeing Ye Seul smiling brightly, he smiled face to face as if he had worked hard.

Then, a notification popped up in front of my eyes.

[Encountered the true successor of the Shadow Walker.]

Heir to the true Shadow Walker.

When I felt a strange sense of dread in that sentence, the notification windows popped up one after another.

[Due to the confrontation with the Shadow Walker, your inner aura begins to react!]

[The power of the Seven Evils begins to reveal its fragments… !]

[You have acquired the Power – Non-Hatching!]

Non-Hatching (飛蛾赴火) (???, ???) (weakening)

The power of the Seven Evil Bells with countless names has changed its form into a single power.

Called Milited, this seven-evil species, the longest-lived, had the power to understand and accept the wounds and shocks inflicted by its opponents, and eventually adapt.

The more the opponent repeatedly attacked, the more his life was devoured in the end.

Such abilities of the Seven Evils took a different shape, allowing them to understand, accept, and adapt to attacks directed at those who possessed these powers, instead of reversing them back to their opponents.

Non-hatching means that a flying summer moth goes into the fire, and it voluntarily jumps into danger and causes destruction.

Isn’t this the most appropriate word for those who oppose those who possess this power?

― A maximum of one attack per opponent can be received without shock. In this case, if the opponent’s overall stats are significantly higher than the holder of the power, the shock cannot be completely dispelled.

― When the opponent’s power is absorbed, resistance to all actions taken by the opponent is acquired.

― Magical power is continuously consumed while using Non-Hatch.

― You can only take it once per person, up to three people.

― When returning the opponent’s attack, the power is proportional to the ability of the holder of the power and the amount of magic used.

― You can use it repeatedly on an opponent who has used it once, but in that case, the resistance you gained before will be lost.

● Due to the fact that there are so few fragments of the Seven Devils that have been absorbed, the power is expressed in a weakened state.

● If you additionally absorb the fragments of the ‘Seven evil species with countless names’, your powers will be strengthened.

It was the fourth power of the Seven Evil Species, and, as expected, it was the power obtained by absorbing Milited.

While I was scanning it quickly, I frowned at the comment at the bottom without realizing it.

That’s because Milited didn’t exist in this world anymore.

‘But honestly… .’

Now I’m wondering what’s the use of this.

Now I can see that there are very few opponents who can beat me.

And now I didn’t have time to pay attention to such things.

It was because things far more important than these were just around the corner.

“She passed the exam.”

Then I heard a voice for the first time.

I looked at the place where the voice came from and saw a woman walking up the stairs following Jin Ye-seul.

Surprisingly large wings sprouted from her shoulders.

“Sharisna-sama.”

Leto looked at her as if it were real.

She nodded and said in a cold voice.

“According to his will, now she is the shadow walker who will succeed him.”

After saying that, she looked at me and bowed her head slightly.

“My name is Garuda, Sharisna. Nice to meet you, Maengwoo’s family.”

She spoke and acted in a very business-like manner, and she seemed to be convinced that Leto was good at gathering information just before.

‘By the way, Garuda to the half ogre.’

When she thought that she had made a lot of very unusual friends, she opened her mouth.

“Since you’ve come all the way here, I’m going to talk about it assuming that you are aware of the situation to some extent. It is not a very relaxed situation, so please understand.”

With one small flap of her gigantic wings folded over her shoulders, she looked around and looked right at me.

“As requested by Maengwoo, we each did our own thing. Leto guarded the tomb, I gathered information at the request of my allies, and the other comrades did their own thing. And one of my allies’ requests was to monitor the seals of Juno and Venus, the Seven Evil Servants.”

She blinked a little.

“… Meanwhile, a man named Kwakal informed us that the seal of Venus was breaking. Kwakal is the gargoyle charged with monitoring the pyramids sealed by Venus.”

“Gargoyle… ?”

At Yuna’s murmuring, Charisna looked at her once.

Even though she didn’t look like she was reproaching, Yuna bowed her head as if she was sorry, perhaps because of her sharp eyes and overbearing attitude.

“I will continue the story. The seals of the Seven Evil Bells have a structure in which as soon as more than half of the seals collapse, the rest of the seals will also collapse sequentially.

However, the allies firmly believed that someone would destroy the seal before it could even collapse naturally, and according to her will and will, we have been closely monitoring the seals of Venus and Juno. so that… .”

We know who broke the seal of Venus.

Without realizing that, I took a step closer to her and asked.

“Who is that?”

“Boiling sunlight flows over your skin, you make the great land springs with milk and honey, and you are the master of all hot iron and molten iron… .”

For a long time, Charisna continued speaking as if reciting a verse of a poem.

“The spirit of flame, also known to humans as the blacksmith of wildfire. He is the one who broke the seal of Venus.”

Then she muttered quietly.

“He is also a servant of Ariman.”
