Episode 375 – Academy (22)

Googungung!

In the endless binge drinking.

The mayor suddenly came to his senses and raised his head. The people being slaughtered didn’t care and hurriedly took refuge in a corner.

“Aaaaah! Ho, escort! Where has the escort gone? Right now-“

Quang!

The moment I was thrown to the ground by a strong shock wave that exploded right next to me.

The mercenary who had thrown away the cutting wind cried out while supporting his body.

“Don’t panic. “It’s even more dangerous if you move hastily!”
“Ugh…! “How did this happen!”

“Just now, the assailants were caught approaching from outside. I think they are the assassins you mentioned. Don’t worry too much. “This is quite manageable.”

How can you believe that! The mayor, who was about to shout, clamped his mouth shut. If you fight with the escort, you will only lose yourself.

He bit his thumb nail and waited for the commotion to die down.

Googoo googong!

The commotion did not subside easily. A strong bursting sound continued to be heard from outside.

‘Ugh. Damn it!’

He supported his bloated body with shaky legs and asked in a suppressed voice.

“Well, what’s the situation outside?”

The mercenary’s expression hardened slightly as he asked what he was talking about into his earphones.

“There are swarms of monsters gathering, but it’s still okay. “Our firepower is far superior.”

Quickly. The mayor, who was gritting his molars, said as if he couldn’t take it anymore.

“Call support.”

“I will incur additional costs, is that okay? Emergency calls not agreed upon in advance cost three times-“

“It doesn’t matter, call me right away! “I’ll give you any amount of money!”
“···All right.”

The mercenary leader pressed the button on the earphones. He coaxed his mouth and communicated something.

Crack!

The mayor started biting his other fingers as if his thumb nail wasn’t enough. Blood drips from the torn fingertips. Nevertheless, the anxiety did not go away.

“I can’t do it. “Apologise to Yang Wei and tell him to come here right away.”

The mercenary’s brow furrowed. He spoke with a shaken expression, as if his pride had been hurt.

“He’s dealing with monsters right now anyways- huh?”

Moment. His eyes widened. He turned around in shock as if he felt something, but it was too late.

Shhh!

I can hear the wind blowing.

The White Tiger tribe was auctioned off. She was crouched in the corner of the stage, looking frightened, when she bounced.

It seemed like the number of new models was increasing so quickly.

Ugh!

A cluster of stars is captured in his sharp fingernails. Kang-gi drew a pure white straight line and approached as if he was teleporting.

Kwaaaaang!!

The mercenary reflexively blocked the front, but could not last even a second. The artifacts plastered all over his body turned into powder in a single blow.

“Gagging!”

It flew dozens of meters and crashed to the ground. It wriggled a few times and then went limp.

“Stop it!”

The same was true for the mercenaries around him. They were all thrown away with just one move.

“···!”

Like a mouse before a cat. The market, which was frozen and unable to do anything, just opened its eyes.

With just a blink of an eye, the escort was annihilated.

Wedge!

A strong force emitting a powerful halo of light flew towards the forehead. Just before Baek A-yeon’s fingernails split the market in two.

Luck and misfortune intersected.

“Keuok?”

The mayor, who was struggling with his arms, fell back. While desperately trying to retreat, he tripped over a slightly protruding stone and fell.

Pee it!

Baek A-yeon frowned. The river barely grazed her forehead. Only her outer skin was torn. The wound was so deep that drops of blood spattered into the air, but the mayor was still alive.

I was so lucky to fall at a time like this. It was luck for her mayor, but bad luck for her.

‘···Doesn’t care.’

I was lucky, but that’s it. Her wrist was slightly twisted. Just before the vertical strike pierced between the eyes.

Quang!

The brooch on the mayor’s lapel glowed and created a magic curtain. Then, lightning rained down from the artifact that had fallen on the floor.

It was a magic tool dropped by the mercenary who had just bounced away.

‘Ah···.’

Baek A-yeon lamented. Due to a series of misfortunes, the time she failed to kill the mayor was only 3 seconds. It was a short period of time, but the results were completely different.

“Stop!”

A man ran as fast as he could and blocked the front of the market. Geomseon’s great disciple and Baek A-yeon faced each other.

The mayor, who had fallen and could not get up, shook his head. I was terrified, as if I had finally realized that I had come back from the dead.

“Hey, Yang Wei…? Ugh?! Hey, what is this! Blood?!”

Quang!

A shock wave rose in the air. Baek A-yeon unleashed her strength as if to attack, but it was blocked by Yang Wei.

“···100 million!”

The mayor’s face turned pale. Before she knew it, she almost died again. The area between my crotches began to become wet with bright yellow water.

“Save me! “Aaaaah!”

He crawled on the floor, giving off a foul smell. She struggled to get away from her.

“···.”

Baek A-yeon chewed her lip as she stared at the ugly sight with her cold eyes. Yang Wei, who was guarding the market, spoke in a cautious tone.

“Look. I don’t know why I became an assassin with that skill, but it’s over. If you want to turn yourself in, I can somehow help you-“

I tried to resolve it through conversation if possible, but it was meaningless.

Beep—!

With a high-pitched whistle, Baek A-yeon kicked the ground. He left the auction house and left not for the city, but for the dimensional erosion area.

***

Not long before the market took a piss.

I quietly sat cross-legged and closed my eyes.

Quang!

A monster bigger than a medium-sized truck crashed right next to it, but did nothing. I just hid my presence and watched how the situation progressed.

‘···Is the assassin that White Tiger woman?’

Of course, there were many other attackers besides her. I could feel masked people crowding in from all directions, centered around the auction house.

‘Most of them are beastmen, but there are also a few humans.’

The identity was guessed. A force that is probably trying to overthrow the Chinese government by starting a civil war. It would be a rebel.

It seems that because of Yang Wei’s protection, they were unable to assassinate him quietly and instead launched a large-scale attack.

“Aaaaahhh!”
“Help me!”

The monster pours out sharp winds in all directions.

Sigh!

The Chinese high-ranking people who were decorated with fancy accessories died, but they left them as if they were strangers.

There was no particular interest in their lives. I didn’t necessarily want to save people who treated people like objects. Neither killed nor helped.

Only the Geomlin disciples brought by Yang Wei secretly helped to prevent them from dying.

‘Tsk. That mayor. ‘I’m going to die like that.’

The White Tiger woman made a surprise attack, and the mercenaries brought by the mayor were neutralized in an instant. He suspected Yang Wei and pushed him away, unable to even protect his own life.

‘Ugh.’

Actually, I don’t like the market either, but I saved it for now. You can kill it at any time, but you can’t bring its corpse back to life.

Since I didn’t know what kind of relationship I would have with the rebels, the more options I had, the better.

“Keuok?”

The market fell backwards. I stumbled, tripped over a stone, and saved my life thanks to the artifacts activated late.

‘Hmm···’

I frowned and concentrated.

The White Tiger woman probably thought it was a simple misfortune, but it was the result of me swinging my heart and sword and twisting reality.

However, the method was a little different from the usual examination. Right now, I was only focusing on the outcome that ‘the market will save my life.’

Stone beak or artifact. I didn’t care about those details. The market survived because of those things that happened to be located there.

Strong!

I feel a throbbing headache.

It wouldn’t have been this difficult if I had created the stone beak and activated the artifact myself.

‘···It’s harder than I thought.’

I lacked confidence. There was no distinction between what I did and what was coincidental.

Actually, it didn’t really matter whether it was a coincidence or not, but I couldn’t deny that it bothered me somewhere in my heart.

This doubt was the wall blocking me. I couldn’t shake it off easily, but I didn’t give up.

I wanted to go one step further than simply manipulating matter and distorting reality.

‘How much is inevitable?’

I quietly closed my eyes. Cause and effect. I sharpened my senses to find something that connected them.

Like the time I split the water and cut down the clouds. I savored the strange sensation glimmering at my fingertips.

‘···Let’s go soon.’

Tuk-tuk!

I got up from my seat and shook my knees. I stared at the mountains in the distance. The place where the White Tiger woman fled.

Several of her mercenaries and her Geomlim disciples chased after her, but were unable to catch her. The rebels walked around the dimensional erosion area as if it were their home. He even caused mercenaries and hordes of monsters to collide or draw them into traps.

“Catch!”
“It’s a land mine! Be careful!”

The angry mercenaries took out various weapons and even drones, but it was meaningless.

Quang!

As they entered the thick forest, the distance between them grew wider. The beastmen actually became faster as the terrain became rougher. I flew around like I was back in my own world.

“Ahh! Catch that bitch!”

In particular, the White Tiger woman even bided her time while her companions fled. Judging from her greatest skills, it was clear that she was her leader.

‘Hmm.’

I hovered in the sky and quietly watched the scene. I just waited. Until she successfully escapes.

What I wanted to meet was the rebel leadership.

She let go on purpose, intending to follow when she returned to her home base.
