Episode 315 – Academy (48)
‘Could it be… Young Isabel?’
I couldn’t just ignore it and leave. She approached Isabelle with her concealment tassel open.
Ta-ta-tat!
I see a girl running away with a pale face. She pursed her lips as if she had no time left. Her dream demons chasing her taunted her in their eunuch-like voices.
“Keuhihihi! “You bitch, just give up!”
When she saw that, her doubts arose. It’s full of strange things. She recalled the common sense she learned in academy class.
‘The incubuses must have all died 200 years ago?’
Two hundred years ago, Geomseong would not have even been born.
“Haaak.. Haaak..”
Isabelle’s breathing became increasingly rough. She had the feeling that being white was her limit. She was covered in dirt and seeing the girl being chased made her feel dirty.
-That’s not how you use a sword. Shall I tell you?
Something she once said passes by. Isabel, who was a swordsman, had a laid-back and playful personality, but she was different when she was younger.
Suddenly, the goddess’s advice came to mind.
-The dream world is a place where the flow of time is distorted.
‘Ah.’
But. If you look at Seoul alone, it is a strange world where all kinds of eras are mixed together. In many ways, the thought that it was a dream became clear.
It seemed like perhaps one of her nightmares had come to life. Just because she is, doesn’t mean she’s strong from the moment she was born. There must have been times when she was chased by monsters like this.
Sigh!
A mound of dirt rose before her as she fled.
-Grrwook!
A huge toad appeared from the rising dust. A tongue the size of a log shot out like a cannonball.
“Tsk!”
Isabel slid to her feet and bowed her waist. She swung her sword, dodging the tongue by a single inch.
Sigh! Sigh!
The black and red flesh broke into pieces and flew into the air, and the toad that had opened its mouth was split open.
‘That’s amazing.’
I was naturally impressed by the clean chain of action. Such sharp sword skills at a 5-star, first-class level. He was truly worthy of becoming a swordsman.
It was an excellent slash, but the girl’s complexion became pale.
“Khaha! What a bitch! “I finally got it!”
Her dream demons that had been chasing her had blocked her path.
“Tsk..”
“I went through so much trouble for no reason because of you!”
Not only dream horses, but also various bizarre monsters blocked the road. They approached her, forming a siege around her.
Chaang!
Young Isabel aimed her sword. She created a sword and glared at the dream demons.
“Fuha! Black energy? “What can I do with something like that?”
“It’s just caught nicely, right? “You mean we make you feel good?”
Her dreamers surrounding her giggled.
He rocked her dirty lower body back and forth, fucking her in the air. Her tongue flicked as she maintained her siege.
“It’s been a while since I’ve been so lively. Ah! Do you want to make a bet on when that bitch will break down?”
“It’s good. “I get ten human females in three days.”
“Hey, are you that angry? Just by looking at him, he looks stubborn. “I get two elves a week.”
Isabel, who had pursed her lips, hardened her expression. The magic power in her dantian began to fluctuate.
The purest energy of life that humans possess. Xian Tian Jin Qi began to fill the dantian.
‘Her.’
I furrowed my eyebrows. It was a great talent to use the innate power to a first-class level, but it was tantamount to suicide. The way she used her innate true energy was similar to breaking her dantian on her own.
‘···Are you planning to die?’
I had to ignore it and just keep going, but I couldn’t move. It was clear that if she left now, she would die.
I glanced at the bracelet.
The amount of golden dust falling was increasing. It was predictable what would happen when all of the goddess’s power was used up. I will be kicked out of the dream world.
‘What happens if I die here? Am I just going to end up having a nightmare?
I felt really uncomfortable because I didn’t really know anything. If it’s as I expected, this place is just a dream. Of course, even so, I didn’t want to see the Sword Saint die. The memories of what she had taught her held her back.
“Ugh…”
“W-Who are you!”
The dreamers were startled by the sound of my sighing. I opened my eyes wide and looked around.
“You rat! “Come out now!”
“Where are you!”
He placed an iron mask on her face and grabbed the hilt of her sword. If you’re going to go out, do it neatly. It had to be cut off with a single knife.
Suddenly.
The silver blade drew a semicircle.
“Kwak…?!”
The expression on his face froze as he shouted. His eyes widened and he grabbed my neck.
“Big! Grrrr..”
“Off..”
He was waving his hands as if asking for help. Blood lines appeared on their purple necks, and their heads fell off.
Dump.
He killed them all without saying a word. I had no intention of wasting the goddess’s power on those guys.
“To···?”
The eyes of the swordsman with rabbit eyes met. I glanced at the bracelet. The power of the goddess consumed was about 0.5 spaces. There was still room.
She stood there in a daze and stretched out her hand to her.
“Tsk.”
Her shrunken shoulders made her look like a scared puppy. Her spirit energy seeped into her as her body trembled. She restored her cracked danjeon.
“Who are you?”
Where did the playful side go? Her fingertips trembled slightly. He still looked scared.
She thought about just leaving, but then grabbed her sword. In the past, she did me pure favor. She gave her teachings without any compensation.
I don’t know what it means to leave her mark, but if even a speck of her affects the person she was in the past.
Wouldn’t a gift like this be okay?
Ugh!
Blue energy burned on the silver blade. A pure flame that burns flames. A sword sharp enough to cut even a sword danced.
Whi profit!
The blue river illuminated the dark forest. Every time she swung the sword, the girl’s small lips became wider. The round eyes become hazy.
How much time has passed? The energy that was emitting brilliance suddenly turned into powder and dispersed.
Widely.
The moment the silver blade disappeared into the scabbard.
“Ah···.”
Isabel, startled, blinked her eyes. Her cute eyes turned round. She was like a child waking up from sleep.
I laughed at the innocent expression that matched her young face. Suddenly, I felt playful.
“Did you see it? “This is how the sword is written.”
Actually, I didn’t know if this act had any real meaning. It was simply a repayment for the swordsman who taught me.
“Hey, that name over there…!”
Taaat.
Leaving behind her as she tried to tell her what to do, I jumped into the air. She ran north and looked at her left arm.
Saaa…
I looked at the gold dust that had disappeared from her bracelet. Her gun was drained by 1 space behind her when she encountered her. There are 9 spaces left. Consumption was less than I had planned.
‘I’m glad. Is it because it covers her face?’
I was prepared to go up to two spaces. Perhaps thanks to the iron mask, the consumption was low.
How far she would have run to leave her.
Googungung!
A distance that cannot be seen with the naked eye. A wave of air from beyond the horizon stung her skin.
‘Found.’
The waves caused by the collision of the two creatures swept everywhere. Trees were uprooted from dense forests and blown away, and mountains made of rock collapsed like sand.
‘The King of Dream Demons.’
Cabrox was fighting with some being. Judging by the constant clashes, they were all whistles.
It was obvious who the opponent was. In original history, the King of Mongma was killed by Amelia’s ancestor.
‘It’s probably the same here too.’
Her ancestor Adrian. He would be fighting Cabrox.
Grumble! Quaaaaang!
The closer I got to the source of the shock wave, the more the back of my head felt numb. An intangible energy filled with murderous intent permeated my entire body.
Grumble.
Black blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. Just the aftermath of the collision made my insides tingle.
‘My meridians are damaged.’
It was absurd. I know best how strong my body is. This is the body of a superman who can crush steel with his bare hands, but this much.
‘Is this the power of Hyeon-kyung?’
I realized why there were no soldiers around. A person lacking in realm could not stand in this position. You won’t be able to simply watch and you will die.
One step. One step.
Every time I took a step, the internal injuries got worse. I was sobbing and forced to swallow the blood. I controlled the tattered meridians.
By the time their appearance became faintly visible. Electric sounds poured in as if they had been waiting.
-Human. Help me! If you do so, I will give you eternal glory!
-Hehe… It’s my first time seeing this young man. What an achievement.
Two voices rang in my head at the same time. He hid both his physical body and inner energy with Wolyeongshin, but it was meaningless.
They saw through my hiding skills at a glance.
‘It doesn’t work either.’
It was what I expected, so there was nothing to regret. I focused on the voice I heard in my head.
-I will win this war anyway. Don’t be tied down by the human species and stand on the side of the winner! If you help me, I will repay you in the name of Cabrox.
It was a dignified voice. He was born as a king and stands above all people. It was the voice of an absolute being whose reign was natural.
I could almost guess why he was trying to attract me. In a tense fight, I became a variable that could upset the balance.
-It’s surprising that I never knew of someone as talented as you. I am Adrian. What is your name?
The other one was ordinary. It was a voice you would hear several times a day while walking down the street, just like the guy next door.
I didn’t answer and kept walking. I’m gradually getting used to it, but it’s still difficult to talk about. My internal organs were damaged and I felt sick.
Soon they were close enough to see each other’s faces. The battle between them had stopped.
“Whoa…”
Suddenly, breathing became a little easier. I gradually became accustomed to the magical power that caused my internal organs to die.
The body stimulated by danger instinctively took a step forward. The meridians, which were already tough and flexible, became stronger.
‘That guy is the king of nightmares. Is it Cabrox?’
I could tell just by looking at its purple-black skin, gray bat wings, and a tail with spikes like spear blades. It was a dream horse with a sculptural appearance.
My eyes met the man who was confronting the King of Dream Demons. The moment I saw his face, I felt glad.
‘They look alike.’
The purple eyes and facial features resemble Amelia at a glance. As expected, her ancestors were correct.
