The Academy’s Deceased Ate It All - The Academy’s Deceased Ate It All chapter 365

Gaiden ― Later Illusion (10)

“Can’t we go a little faster?!”

In response to Yeeun Lee’s training, Wooseok Shin skillfully moved the steering wheel in response.

“This is the fastest speed, my lord.”

They were now running on a road paved for hunters and heroes.

Originally, it was a road that could not be used under normal circumstances to cope with the sudden appearance of gates or monsters, or to provide support as quickly as possible in an emergency area.

Originally, putting her position and authority in front of her in this way was her most reluctant and detestable act, but now she was not in a situation to question such a thing.

“… … .”

She continued to breathe quietly, in an anxious feeling as if she was clutching her neck.

Shin Woo-seok quietly closed her eyes to calm down, and began to recall what had just happened.

I wake up early in the morning and go to work, after I finish my workouts, including archery, I have a meal.

This was originally her normal weekend, but today was a little different.

The secret conversation with the guest I met last night was getting longer, so I naturally went to bed late, and thanks to that, I woke up much later than usual.

Lee Ye-eun woke up blankly and looked around, blinking her eyes.

I couldn’t see Yoon Seo-ryeong, who was usually right next to me to attend, nor Kang Kang-kyung, who served as his secretary right after graduation.

It’s been a long time since I overslept, so I got a good night’s sleep.

With that in mind, she carefully reached out for the box she had placed by her bedside.

Inside the box were the potions handed over yesterday, and seeing it, she had an embarrassing smile on her face without realizing it.

Even for the next day, you have to work hard today.

As she hummed as she thought so, her cell phone rang.

[Jihyuk ♡]

She immediately answered the phone in a hurry.

Does that mean it will come today? Or is there any other reason?

It was when I brought the phone to my ear, happy to be able to talk to him anyway.

– Help me, sister… !

It was the first time I heard such an urgent voice.

Before he could even ask what was going on, he gibberish and began to mumble quickly.

― Please come to my dorm room without telling anyone. I can’t get out of here. Please, no one other than my sister can ask… !!!

Then there is the sound of a loud bang and something falling.

The sound of a cell phone falling.

someone’s scream.

At that moment, Yeeun Lee was already running out of the door.

When he came to his senses, he was already fully armed, sitting in the back seat, and the car was going full speed.

“Whoa.”

She took another small breath, trying to somehow regain her composure.

No matter what happened in those days, even if the seven evil bells appeared in front of him, he maintained his composure.

That Yoo Ji-hyuk, the person he admits, has such an urgent and helpless voice… .

“… Be patient.”

Perhaps something he could not have imagined must have happened.

Yeeun Lee was so sure.

… And it was also a sound that was semantically correct.

* * *

Han Soo-young woke up about 20 minutes after Yoo Ji-hyuk woke up.

Stuttering and fiddling with her side, she got up in shock when she found nothing in her hands.

“Woke up?”

Yoo Ji-hyuk sat next to her and simply finished taking a shower, waiting for her to open her eyes.

He held out a glass as he looked at her as she sighed in relief.

“Aren’t you thirsty?”

“yes… .”

Han Soo-young nodded her head.

She, who hadn’t woken up yet, said like a whimper.

“Feed me.”

“I will spill. You’ve been there before.”

“Then the bed will be as dirty as it was back then, so what do you think?”

At her whining, Yoo Ji-hyeok gave her water as if he couldn’t help it.

Every time Han Soo-young, who got up halfway, took a drink of water, a squeaking sound resounded very clearly.

“Are you okay now?”

“yes… .”

“Then let’s talk about this now.”

Towards Han Soo-young, who was rubbing his eyes, Yoo Ji-hyuk gently lifted his shirt and showed his upper body.

The strange pattern that follows his heart, reaching the middle of the stomach and abdomen, left her blankly staring at it for a while.

“At first I thought it was forty or forty like Yuna or Grossman, but it didn’t seem like that… No matter how much I think about it, I think it was because of the fragments of Milited that I put in my body yesterday, am I right?”

“Wait a moment.”

She cautiously reached out towards his body.

A cold hand touched the pattern, and her slender fingers moved slowly through the pattern as if to scan it.

After a while she nodded.

“… That’s right. Maybe it was because Jihyuk was placed on the left side to balance Minerva and Svengalli living in your body, so it appeared from the heart side.”

“What does this mean? Is it dangerous?”

“Well… You won’t have to worry too much.”

Han Soo-young said confidently.

“Like I said yesterday, Jihyuk’s fragments of Milited won’t have any adverse effect on you. Milited’s thoughts did not remain, and even if they did, there would be no way that Minerva and Svengalli would be the only one as long as Jihyeok was attached to you. It just appears in the process of assimilation into your body… .”

She quickly covered her mouth with her hand at the sudden burst of yawn.

Yoo Ji-hyuk was able to notice that she looked very tired.

… Knowing the reason well, he nodded calmly as if he didn’t know anything.

“If swimming is your thing, then it would be really good.”

“Hmm… .”

As she lay on the bed and looked up at him, she made a meaningful sound.

Yoo Ji-hyuk looked at her as if he was asking why, and then turned his head towards the sudden ringing of his phone.

The caller was none other than his sister.

“Oh, Gina.”

– brother. Are you really going to meet me today?

“yes?”

Yoo Ji-hyeok questioned what he meant, and Yoo Ji-na answered him as if why was he doing that.

― Oppa, you asked me to go to the aquarium today. maybe you forgot?

“ah.”

– Ugh… .

At the moment he was speechless, she let out a sigh as if she knew it.

However, Yoo Ji-hyuk did not lose sight of the disappointment and anticipation that was subtly contained in his younger brother’s sigh.

It was his own fault with no excuses.

I’m sorry for my brother, but Han Soo-young, who is with me now, was important.

It was at the moment when I was about to apologize to my brother, saying that he had no choice but to postpone it until later.

‘He said to go today.’

Han Soo-young, who picked up the conversation that was unintentionally flowing right next to him, whispered like that.

Yoo Ji-hyuk looked into her eyes as if she was really okay, and she nodded.

— … No, don’t worry, brother. It’s my fault for not speaking properly. Instead, are you going to go together later?

“no. No, it’s Gina. let’s go today Is it okay if we meet later in the afternoon and go to the aquarium together?”

– uh?

Then she asked if she was really okay.

– uh… really? I’m really fine. Oppa, you seem very busy right now, wouldn’t it be better to see you later when you have more time?

“No, it’s okay. Gina. later did… .”

Here, Han Soo-young stretched out three fingers towards him.

“Let’s meet around three o’clock. Like you said, I will try to contact other people.”

― If you’re busy, you can really put it off until later… .

Even as she murmured in a small voice, she could not hide the joy that was flowing softly.

In response to his younger brother’s reaction, Yoo Ji-hyuk felt his lips dry out without realizing it.

―Then I’ll be waiting for you at 3 o’clock just like my brother said. see you later!

Yoo Ji-na, who shouted in a cheerful voice to see if she had regained her energy, hung up the phone as it was, and Yoo Ji-hyuk, who confirmed that the call was cut, breathed a sigh of relief involuntarily.

“Whoa.”

That would have been a really big deal.

Thinking like that, he turned his head to look at Han Soo-young.

“Thank you, for helping me.”

“What are you thankful for?”

Han Soo-young replied with a grin.

“At this opportunity, I have to give the lady some points in advance.”

“… But will you really be okay?”

“yes?”

“It’s funny to say things like this now, but at least for today, Sooyoung was trying to focus entirely on you.”

Towards Yoo Ji-hyuk, who was sorry, Han Soo-young gave a meaningful smile in many ways.

It’s like, ‘Look at this?’ It was such an odd gaze.

“To be honest, it’s a pity, but I can’t be the only one who can own it. That was the promise.”

“promise? What promise?”

Yoo Ji-hyuk tilted his head and asked.

It passed very quickly, but he did not miss the look of bewilderment passing by her eyes.

“Oh, more than that.”

Han Soo-young turned and looked up at him.

“Jihyuk, where did you learn such a word?”

“What?”

“If it was like the old days, I would have pulled back every day and said, “I don’t know anything, I don’t understand.” Do you know how frustrating it was for me and everyone else?”

“… That means I really have nothing to say, but please understand my position at that time.”

He thought that one day he would have to return to the world he lived in, so he tried not to cross the line he had set.

But now there was no reason for that.

“But you have changed too much.”

Han Soo-young said so and rolled over on the bed.

Her body trembled and her red hair was scattered.

“Like before, I spit those words out without hesitation, and now, slowly, I don’t know anything, and I don’t even take it back. There like yesterday… .”

Her face was as red as her hair, as she stopped talking on the way.

As if in a sudden resentment, she picked up the pillow and threw it at Yoo Ji-hyeok, and Yoo Ji-hyeok spit out a sound of pain as he was struck by the intuition that he should not avoid it.

“Ouch. Why are you like this, all of a sudden?”

“I don’t know, you idiot! Don’t look this way!”

“okay okay. I will turn my head.”

After seeing that Yoo Ji-hyuk had turned, Han Soo-young got up and headed to the bathroom.

After a moment, she looked in the mirror and muttered in a voluptuous voice.

“Ugh, the weather is still hot, but you look like you’re wearing a polarti for a while.”

He grinned bitterly at her grumbling.

He had to wear something to cover his neck, but he didn’t say anything.

After a while, Han Soo-young quietly called his name in the bathroom.

“Ji-hyuk.”

“yes.”

“… Did I ask what the promise was earlier?”

At Han Soo-young’s words, he kept his mouth shut this time as well.

After a while, she heard her voice again from the bathroom.

“Actually, you know that our situation is very strange right now, right?”

It was as she said.

Aside from that, he was already aware that Han Soo-young, or other people besides her, was hiding something from him.

But he was just pretending not to know.

“Aren’t you going to ask?”

“If you ask me, swimming won’t bother you.”

In response, he burst out laughing.

“You did it before. Every day, if you want to be in trouble, you pull it back and say that I don’t know anything or I don’t understand.”

“yes.”

“You know I’ve always been like that.”

“… I’m indecisive.”

He burst into laughter at her words.

He wasn’t waiting because he couldn’t choose.

I just chose to wait.

There was a big difference between these two.

Yoo Ji-hyuk understood better than anyone that she and other people would definitely have their own position.

“Instead, you even like me who is indecisive.”

“… not really? do you hate me at all? Jihyuk is up to you, right?”

“Like last night?”

Han Soo-young seemed to be speechless for a moment at his words mixed with laughter.

After a while, she asked him again.

“By the way, did Jihyeok wash you?”

“Oh, just a shower. Now you have to get ready to go out.”

“How much time until check-out?”

“About an hour? I’m not in a hurry, but that doesn’t mean I can afford it.”

“Enough, well.”

With those words, the door that had been closed with a click opened.

Han Soo-young slowly leaned his head out and looked at Yoo Ji-hyuk.

“… One more wash, just.”

“What?”

“Well, you have to pay extra.”

She said to him as if frustrated.

“You idiot, you still don’t know why I told you to make an appointment at 3 o’clock in the first place because I can move around?”

… So they left the hotel after 30 minutes after 2pm.

First of all, after changing clothes and finishing preparations, Han Soo-young placed her hand on Yoo Ji-hyuk’s body, saying that they would see each other.

After that, they crossed the space and arrived at Yoo Ji-hyuk’s dormitory room, and as soon as they put their feet on the floor, they immediately turned their backs and looked around.

“what?”

“… What is this?”

His dorm room was literally a mess.

Furniture was blown all over the place, smashed and broken, and in some places, starting with the collapsed ceiling, and in some places the walls were smashed.

Above all, they frowned at the strange smell and energy floating in the air.

“… It’s crazy, you broke my barrier and didn’t notice me at all until you got to this point?”

Han Soo-young muttered as if she couldn’t believe it.

It was because yesterday, before the task of injecting the fragments of Milited into him, he had laid out a simple barrier to detect the intruder, hiding sounds and signs around him just in case.

It was said that the barrier had entered the room without being touched or detected at all, and made a mess.

Even if it was Yoo Ji-hyuk, it was impossible, so Han Soo-young began to raise her magic without realizing it.

However, Yoo Ji-hyuk just sat down on his knees slowly without saying a word.

Under his feet were shredded plant roots and tree bark.

“… no way.”

Laune.

He muttered in a muffled voice.

Subsequently, he saw that the necklace Laune was wearing was broken and thrown on the floor, and Han Soo-young, who understood the situation late, unknowingly covered the corner of his mouth with his hand.

It was because she knew how dependent he was on Laune.

“… … .”

On the contrary, Yoo Ji-hyuk could feel him cooling down.

As he slowly got up from his seat, his whole body was so sensitive that he did not miss the feeling of being popular in a place where heaps of toxic debris and clothes were piled up.

“Sbengali.”

Yoo Ji-hyuk muttered softly.

On his right arm, the king of thorns had already pierced his skin like an explosion, as if expressing his feelings.

“Let me please.”

His eyes were dyed red with a slit in between them.

It was a recoil using the thorn king, but he didn’t care.

It was because the only thing that mattered to him now was to tear the body of that intruder who dared to touch Raune to shreds.

As if he couldn’t wait any longer, Yoo Ji-hyuk flew towards the wreckage, and as if he had waited, something suddenly appeared in the wreckage.

And Yoo Ji-hyuk, who saw the intruder, was able to stop his swinging arm with all his might.

“… … .”

It was the first girl I had ever seen.

It must have been the first time he had seen him, but for some reason he was so familiar.

Yoo Ji-hyuk, who felt close to her as if he had known her for a long time, couldn’t help but panic.

Then, an idea ran through his mind.

no way.

no way… .

“… Laune?”

Yoo Ji-hyuk muttered blankly.

“… … !!!”

Soon, the child smiled brightly enough and ran to hug Yoo Ji-hyuk as it was.
