Chapter 80 – Turning Point
Episode 80 – Turning Point
Phut! Pabababang!
It was close combat skills time, and as always, Alyssa gave me some bloody punches.
However, the difference from usual is that her fist flew so fast and in a bizarre trajectory that it was difficult for my defense to keep up.
It was clearly different from before the vacation.
‘I tried it just in case, but it turned out to be correct.’
From the first time I saw it, I couldn’t feel any momentum, so I did something and realized enlightenment.
Of course, even if she surpasses level 150, she will not be able to increase her stat efficiency or gain new unique skills, so her physical changes will not be significant, but her strength has increased significantly just by improving her skills.
This would be especially true because Alyssa is not dependent on her body in the first place.
When I couldn’t keep up with her attack and just stiffened up her defense, Alyssa twisted one corner of her mouth and laughed.
“I guess you don’t have enough time? Why don’t you try harder? You looked bored before vacation, right? Huh?”
The force of hitting the guard becomes stronger.
It seems that she didn’t like the fact that she was growing up and trying to be on the same level.
She deliberately touched her entire body without stopping, and when she got tired of it, she changed her trajectory and stuck her fist into my chin.
Wow!
My body leaned back.
Maybe my brain was shaken, but the whole world started shaking as if it was turned upside down, and soon turned black.
‘Damn.’
*
When I came to my senses, what I saw was not big breasts, but red, small lips.
“Huh?”
When she let out a small sound in surprise, the warmth weighing down her forehead, her fell away and her lips spread further apart.
Thus, the saint who appeared, Iris.
She placed both her hands on her waist and frowned as she shouted.
“What strange thing did you eat?”
“Yes?”
“Your physical condition is so strange! “I feel like I’m seeing a divine beast, not a person.”
“Ah…”
I wondered what was going on, and during the treatment, I felt a change in my body and felt like I was being examined.
‘I thought we were kissing again.’
If the saint wanted it, she would have gladly accepted it, even if her conscience prevented her from actively responding.
As I opened my mouth with a feeling of regret, one question immediately came to mind.
“But, saint. Didn’t you get treatment last time? “Didn’t you know at the time?”
“Oh, during the attack? “I didn’t treat it at the time.”
“Really?”
“Yes. When I arrived, treatment had already been completed. “I only did nursing!”
I was aggrieved by the attitude of asking if I didn’t even know that.
“No, you said it as if you did it yourself, right? “When my sister thanked me for treating her, I said it wasn’t a big deal, but now you’re saying something else?”
“Oh! Well, did I do that? I don’t remember…”
“Is it okay if I say I don’t know? “Then, is it okay for me to say that I don’t remember touching the saint’s breasts?”
“No!”
“Look! “He’s only generous to himself.”
People are generous to themselves and strict to others. This is an unavoidable instinct. However, it is morally wrong to reveal it openly.
The saint was unable to give any sort of rebuttal to my point and just muttered her mouth.
I was both considering and joking.
“By the way, I didn’t know that the saint had even examined her.”
“Yes? “Examine the body?”
“So, didn’t you say that my physical condition is similar to Shinsoo’s? Is that really a lie too?”
If it was a lie, the saintess, who glanced at her and jumped up while sitting down, shook her head as if she was truly disappointed this time.
“Oh, no! This is based on what was written in ancient literature! This is possible because it’s me! Unless you are as skilled in handling divine power as I am, you won’t know!”
“Really?”
“Yes!”
Since I heard that I only provided nursing care last time, I was worried that the priest who treated me at that time might have noticed my physical condition, but I think I can rest assured.
At this point, I decided to change the topic.
“More than that, saint. “I have a question.”
“Yes? What is it?”
She is a saint whose eyes sparkle as if this is an opportunity to escape from an unfavorable topic of conversation.
I pretended not to be conscious and brought up her business.
“You said there was a possessed person during the school opening ceremony. Is there a way to track down those people?”
“How?”
“Yes. You say you know the future, but you can’t know with that alone. “If we knew the future, we would investigate and find out who was involved, but that’s not true.”
In fact, it would be possible to use Deborah’s foresight her, but the secret is currently known only to Roxana and those possessed by her, so even the church would not think of using her.
The saint nodded her head as if she understood her question and accepted her words.
“Of course it is. “The owner of the Foresight Eye has not appeared since the Starlight Witch passed away 20 years ago.”
“Witch of Starlight?”
“Yes! Don’t you know? You are a famous prophet. The hit rate is 90%. At one time, it was popular among noble families to predict the future of a newly born child. “Didn’t Luan do it? “
“Well. “I don’t know.”
The original owner of this body was an extra, so detailed settings were not provided.
I shrugged my shoulders and asked one more question.
“But, saint. “Is there a reason you revealed the possessed person now?”
“Hmm… In fact, she’s been looking for it since the first semester, but hasn’t been able to find anything. Moreover, the Dark Church is also slowly starting to move. If I can’t find it, I won’t Let it move at all. Above all!”
“More than anything?”
After hoarse, the saint stretched out her index finger, pointed at me, and shouted loudly.
“If this happens, the future will change! This means that it is difficult for possessors to utilize information!”
Clearly, revealing such shocking information will have a huge impact on the story.
The change in the movement of the Dark Church in the first place is a big variable, and this will be an opportunity for the entire academy to change.
‘That’s what it was.’
I was convinced and gently folded her saintly fingers her. Everything else is good, but I hope you can put up with the pointing.
“I understood. Thank you for speaking with us.”
“Is it so? Thank god. But surprisingly, you’re very interested in possessed people, aren’t you?”
“Yes?”
“No way…”
The saint slurred her words and narrowed her eyes. The doubt in her gaze makes her nervous. Finally she let out her bullshit.
“If you find the possessor, you plan to threaten him!”
“… Threats?”
“Is it so! If she doesn’t want to get caught, she’ll tell her to show off her tits! This pervert!”
The tension that had filled her entire body disappeared like air leaking from a balloon.
‘I’m a nervous idiot.’
How dare you surprise me like this? It makes me want to crush those damn big tits.
I shook my head with a puzzled expression.
“Isn’t the saint a pervert?”
“W-what? “I’m a pervert?”
“Yes. I guess it’s true that I think about that every day, right? Aren’t you so obsessed with it that you want to stop me? Do it in moderation. “My bones are sore.”
The saintess’s face turned red as she looked down at her entire body with a look of understanding.
A collaboration of shame and anger.
“Oh, no? “I don’t know about that!”
“Yes. I guess so. Then I will go.”
“No? Stand there! No! “I’m not pervert!”
I left her recovery room, easily ignoring the saintess who insisted on her innocence.
‘Thanks to you, I got a lot of information.’
First of all, there doesn’t seem to be a clear way to catch the possessed person in the church right now, so I think we can take it easy.
Then it’s time to think about other problems.
‘I need to do some tailing this weekend.’
My roommate, Kenneth.
There is a need to chase him to see what kind of person he is.
I guess I’ll have to borrow the tracking magic tool from Deborah again.
*
-Kihahahaha! Die! Die!
The screams of monsters and the sounds of slaughter, along with frantic cries, were transmitted through the magic tool.
Two hours since I followed Kenneth.
In just that amount of time, I figured out what kind of person Kenneth was.
“You’re crazy.”
Apparently, he was fine when he left the academy and visited the inn of Grant, who raised him, but the moment he entered the dungeon and faced the monsters, his personality changed 180 degrees.
The more blood got on his sword and body, the more ferocious he became, and he could no longer control his madness.
There is a need to be vigilant.
‘I’m glad I’m weak.’
As if he had not yet attained enlightenment, Kenneth was unable to use his sword skills.
Except for the fact that his physical abilities were strengthened through unique skills or various methods, he was at a level that could be achieved at level 99.
“Anyway, the performance is good.”
I was fiddling with the tracking magic tool.
Because it is very small and light, it is easy to attach secretly, and the range is wide and the sound quality is good, making it easy to track and eavesdrop.
Deborah must be an angel to give away such good things for freedom.
‘I still don’t know what was said in the middle.’
-If you are grateful, be nice to your teacher. Got it?
It’s unclear whether it’s just a threat to be careful if you don’t want to get caught, or advice for when you encounter it later.
Well, you’ll find out when you meet Roxana someday.
“It’s best to meet as late as possible.”
At my current level, I have no choice but to bend Roxana to her she will no matter what she does.
I’m sure she cares for Deborah and wouldn’t harm her student’s friend, but she knows how to shut up.
For me, I just want to avoid even the slightest risk.
“Haam… It’s getting boring.”
As I listened to the scene of madness and carnage that continued without end, I leaned back deeply in my chair and looked around.
I took a seat near the dungeon in order to intervene immediately in case of emergency, but since this was the outskirts, there was nothing worth seeing.
If it were a busy area, time would have passed quickly.
As I was complaining softly, the battle between Kenneth and the monster came to an end.
-Good! Now let’s check the rewards!
No matter how crazy he was about killing, Kenneth shouted with excitement as if his expectation of reward was the same.
‘What was the reward here?’
It was probably a suction boot.
Since it was possible to freely absorb and release wind, it was used to climb walls or jump in the air.
Although there was no direct increase in strength, it was a fairly high-tier item due to its great versatility.
-Found it!
The moment when Kenneth screams joy with the sound of a treasure chest opening.
-Get out of the way!
Wow!
A cutting sound as if something were being cut was heard along with a familiar voice.
I jumped up from my seat.
“Pernia?”
I thought I would spend some time quietly, but then he appeared from an unexpected place. Her voice was full of confidence, as if she had gained a lot during her vacation.
Kenneth groaned softly as if he had been damaged and showed his guard as if he was growling.
-What are you? Are you a possessor too?
-I know. Those boots, I’ll take them.
-Who wants it?
-That’s up to me. If you don’t want to die, get out!
I love you!
The sound of something being shot violently was heard along with the Ilgal.
A strength that goes beyond cutting through the wind and seems to be unified. From that alone, I realized what Pernia had gained.
‘Dropping wind!’
It is a dagger imbued with the blessings of the Wind Spirit King in Storm Valley, hundreds of kilometers away from here.
Not to mention its power and strength, it can be summoned and counter-summoned, and it can summon the wind spirit, so it can be used in a variety of ways.
The current attack was most likely a dagger thrown using the wind spirit.
“What should I do?”
Apparently, I heard from Abel some time ago that Pernia had also awakened her sword energy. In fact, it was safe to say that she had no chance against Kenneth.
The key was whether to let him die like this or to intervene.
In the former case, there is a disadvantage that Pernia can become stronger and become a threat to me, and in the latter case, there is a risk that my existence will be revealed to Kenneth.
Of course, killing Kenneth would solve the problem, but for that to happen, what I’ve seen so far bothers me.
‘It’s not trash that can’t be dealt with.’
He’s a crazy guy who doesn’t know what he’s going to do, but all he’s done so far is be obedient to Grant, who raised him, and cut down monsters.
Of course, I don’t know what it’s like on Earth, but that’s none of my business.
After thinking about it, I soon made a decision.
‘Save.’
Anyway, the power gap between Kenneth and me is hopelessly clear.
There is no guarantee that even killing him and gaining a unique skill will help me, so it is not a bad idea to make the situation fixed.
Maybe Kenneth will help you later?
-Aaaaah! Damn it!
‘Let’s hurry.’
Before Kenneth died.
