Chapter 459 – Academy Final Exam (1)

“Home is the best.”

I woke up in a soft dormitory bed and felt a firm mattress.

Even though I had combat sleep and could sleep soundly anywhere, I could definitely feel the sensations before falling asleep and when I woke up.

I could clearly feel the difference even when I used my body a little more vigorously than sleeping.

“Whoa…”

Feeling comfortable as I moved my body around on the bed, I brought up the status window.

【Yusian】

【Level: 4】

【Combat Power: 1672】

【Skills possessed: Underworld Possession (S), Establishment of Self (S), Skill Link (S), Black and White Twin Wheels (B), Yeonhwanryu (B), Black Spiritual Assassination (B), Survival Rules (EX), Shadow Mastery (A+)), Yeonyeom Shingong (9 stars)】

【Awaiting Quest (13/13)】

‘Combat power has increased considerably.’

The one who took the strongest position again was Han Sian, and the one who took the weakest position was Cyan Raven. By possessing me, Cyan Raven receives the correction of the EX assimilation rate and has a power similar to that of the main body.

Because while Xian Raven and I are at a similar level, Han Xian briefly experienced a higher level.

“It was a good experience to fill my body with the king’s energy.”

To be honest, the fight where the expert’s strength is fluttering is too advanced to be of much help.

It is true that the Seven Kings’ power to throw strong energy is superior, but only his comrade Chris Roanna can fire a more spectacular magical barrage.

‘Shall we watch the wizards fight?’

I thought it would be helpful if I could feel the difference between the Seven Kings, who started by storing energy in their bodies and reached the point of releasing energy, and the wizard who learned to release mana from the beginning.

If I say that watching wizards fight will help me grow, the student support office will allow it.

I immediately picked up my smartphone and sent a text message to the student support office.

-This is Yoo Sian from 1st grade class Q. It’s not a quest right now, but I think we can learn something by watching the wizards’ battle.

Is there any way for me to watch the battles of wizards who gave their all?

After sending a text message to the student support office, it occurred to me that I might be able to see it soon.

A text message from the student support office that came a short while later made what I thought into reality.

-We will help you take the practical exam for the magic department final exam in the second semester of your third year.

“What are you doing on the final exam?”

At the Global Academy, I asked two acquaintances who were not in class Q, my girlfriends Kim Seo-yeon and Royna Naen.

Upon hearing that, Seoyeon smiled and seemed a little angry, and Naen sighed.

“Whoa. Unlike class Q, where there is only one test, we have to prepare for multiple subjects, so it’s hard to say exactly.”

“Yes. Since you choose your department starting from the second year, the common subjects are a bit difficult. You don’t need to study much about magic or healing magic.”

I spoke to two people who live at a different academy than me.

“For the midterm exam, I went into a dungeon with thousands of ogres, but I didn’t know what to do for the final exam.”

There is a high possibility that we will spar for the first semester final exam, but now that there are fewer people, I thought that we might do something more strange than I imagined.

The two people who knew the story about Class Q’s midterm exam laughed awkwardly because they had told it before.

“Ah… Cheer up?”

“After the final exams are over, it’s vacation. I’ll have some free time.”

Unlike Naen, who was worried about the immediate exam, Seoyeon was looking forward to winter vacation.

Even though she was a student at the academy, she didn’t have to stay in the dormitory, and they provided housing support, so she planned to stay with them like before.

There is a high possibility that there will be three of us with Shahemos joining in, but it will be better than now when we are divided into dormitories.

Naen could be seen frowning slightly after hearing Seoyeon tell a slightly different story.

“Seo-yeon, shall I go?”

“Let’s go together. Sian, are we going to study for the test?”

“Okay. Study hard.”

When Seoyeon and Naen left, she sent a text message to Seoyeon telling her to contact her when she misses her. Hearts came immediately with emoticons, and she seemed to understand.

‘Then let’s look into Yang Qi.’

I headed to the Global Academy’s library, which contained more information than I could have imagined, but was difficult for me to accept.

*

(Shahemoth, yin and yang are very strange.)

(Master, what do you mean by strange?)

(You can’t tell even if you look at it.)

There were many books on martial arts or techniques that deal with yin and yang.

Should we say that all problems are abstract? It was a summary of her own realization of her, so I didn’t understand it properly.

Of course, I also had a hard time when asked to explain the shadow energy.

Should I say that I can at least explain the Yeonyeom Shingung (連炎神功) that I learned from Master?

Skills acquired sensuously and as quest rewards also had this drawback.

Since the end of the first semester, I have gained and developed many skills in a short period of time.

Rather than delving into the basics one by one, I thought it would be better for me to combine the skills I gained through quests to get the best results.

That’s probably why Skill Link became A-level.

‘They say you have to possess a body that can use yang energy.’

After getting up and organizing the books in the library, I headed to the dormitory.

*

“Use. There’s nothing else.”

I laid down on the bed in the dormitory and searched for a body with a high assimilation rate, but there was no body that I could possess similar to before.

Since there was no one in the underworld with a similar level of power to me who could handle shadows and heat, I had no choice but to use restricted possession if I had to possess it.

As a result of the pharmaceutical possession I did last time, I strengthened my shadow dive and established myself, so the results were better than I expected.

Even though my strength was weakened, the combat power gained through EX assimilation rate helped, and it wasn’t that difficult unless I made a mistake in the order of the quest.

‘Let’s prioritize learning how to deal with Yang energy without being possessed.’

After that, I thought that the order to develop the skill through pharmaceutical possession was correct.

I know that it is faster to acquire and strengthen skills by completing quests after being possessed, but restricted possession is a little different.

And wouldn’t I be able to create the skills I want now? Because I’m different from when I came to the Global Academy and was struggling with only the possession skill.

‘Should we first try to increase our proficiency in shaded energy to obtain negative energy, which can be said to be the opposite of positive energy?’

I thought that if I increased my proficiency with the shading device that I currently use to destroy mana, I would naturally be able to understand the fundamental shading device.

“So it’s a dungeon again?”

(Master, what is missing and what is in the dungeon?)

Shahemos whispered to me.

Come to think of it, even though Shahemoth, who had absorbed a lot of negative energy from Kaena, mixed with her body after waking up, he didn’t think to look into exactly what kind of power it was, right?

I gained a technology that allowed me to overcome the space limitations of the warp marker, but other than that, I felt that Shahemoth had changed a bit.

“Shahemoth, use all the mana you can get and come out.”

Shahemoth’s body was created using Shadow Craft.

I was frowning as more mana was consumed than I expected.

I think this is the first time I’ve consumed this much mana to summon Shahemos. Even if you use Spiral Breakthrough, you don’t use this much mana.

Shahe Moth, who took most of the mana I had, blinked his eyes a few times and looked around his body curiously.

There didn’t seem to be much difference in appearance, but seeing Shahemos look at his body like that made me feel like something had changed.

“Shahemoth, what’s wrong?”

“Ah! Master. I can definitely feel a difference.”

Shahemos spoke to me with a bright smile.

He smiled so brightly that I thought it was the first time I had seen him smile so brightly since he became subordinate to me.

“Even though I grew up by draining Kaena’s power, when I came here briefly and the master created my body, I used the same amount of mana as usual, right?”

“That’s right. I stopped by briefly to modify the dyeing magic circle before heading to Hangzhou.”

“But now that the master has handed over the maximum mana I can have, I understand. My essence has changed.”

“The essence has changed?”

Shahemoth, who said those words, closed his eyes tightly.

As I was watching what he was doing, a tail with a lot of shiny hair, like Shahemoth’s gray hair, appeared from his butt.

I forgot what to say at that sight, and as I was looking at the tail swaying gently, Shahemos approached me and said.

“Master, now I am both an elephant and a fox.”

Shahemos subconsciously caught his outstretched tail and stroked it gently.

“You didn’t use illusion magic, did you? Is Kaena’s negative energy strong enough to affect your essence?”

“I wonder if that woman was a transcendent of a class for no reason. I didn’t know that it would affect my essence until I used my master’s mana to its limit.”

“When you have no mana, you become closer to an elephant, but when you have a lot of mana, you become a fox?”

“What… Will that happen?”

Shahemos acknowledged his condition and smiled at me.

“But now I think I can eat my master♡”

Seeing Shahemoth’s cool smile with shining eyes made me think that I could study her vagina without having to go outside.
