Chapter 136 – The Second Wanderer -2-

The land on which the capital’s Lofty Academy sits is an absurdly large area, even if it includes the entire number of students, faculty members and contract workers.

Not only the land where the building is located, but also the forest and low hills behind it are included in the academy’s ownership, and there are training grounds or vacant lots that are sometimes used in classes.

In the past, it was often used, but with the expansion of the gymnasium and auditorium, it is now a place that can be said to have been used a lot if used once a year.

So, if the cadets Robert and Isaac set out to find it, they can somehow find a secluded space that is surplus empty.

In particular, at a time like now, when cadets are taking classes, there is stillness and silence in the empty field.

“Not yet? Almost done?”

Robert followed Isaac with a box full of objects he could not understand.

“Robert. This isn’t going to be that easy… Be patient.”

Isaac squatted down and stood up repeatedly, placing materials or drawing geometric patterns on the floor.

Isaac’s hands were busy, drawing patterns and pouring a strange liquid to keep them in place.

Shuk- Shuk-

On the flattened floor, messy magic circles and catalytic materials were placed at regular intervals.

Isaac, who prepared to activate various magics immediately just in case, for safety, drew a magic circle with one hand and periodically bit the nails of the other hand, unable to erase his expectations.

Was it worthwhile to throw away classes and busily prepare?

“Huh guk-!”

Isaac got up and did a few stretches, pulling his aching back back, then took out the last catalyst in Robert’s box.

“Activate the scroll at the place marked with an X over there and get out immediately. Okay? Never touch the gin or catalyst with your feet while coming out.”

“Because I know.”

Jerk- jerk-

Robert stepped cautiously and opened the scroll towards the place where the mark was.

The size of the magic circle engraved on the scroll in his hand was shabby, but in terms of complexity, it was nothing compared to those around him.

A scroll that has been restored to the same magic circle as before based on the books found in the Academy Library.

Robert opened a magic circle that only responded to his own mana and let the mana flow.

…
…

Tsujeojeog-!

The empty space, which could not be identified, split open, and a mass with a mysterious color like the last time fell out.

Isaac took off his glasses in surprise and rubbed his eyes to see the scene again, but Robert was not as impressed by what he was witnessing again.

Isaac, who carefully picked up the fallen pieces, alternately looked at the fragments of the first dimension he had brought in his bag and this one, took out his magic tools and repeated strange actions, then opened his mouth so much that his jaw fell out.

“Amazing…! Crazy amazing…! Robert! This piece and this piece have different mana wavelengths. Do you know what this means?”

Isaac’s eyes flashed with madness, becoming something beyond the words ‘mad wizard’.

Robert asked with anticipation as he looked at another piece that fell out of thin air.

“Tell me briefly so I can understand.”

“The first hypothesis is that each space has its own unique wavelength. If the dormitory has a wavelength of 1, the vacant lot has a wavelength of 2. Do you understand?”

“Um… What.”

“But this is a fact that has already been proven to be a false hypothesis in the book I have been transcribing.”

Then, a wrinkle appeared on Robert’s forehead, which he couldn’t understand why he mentioned it.

“And the second hypothesis, which is listed in the book and that I also thought of, is… The hypothesis that the world connected to this rift has a unique wavelength. If this hypothesis is confirmed as certain. Each dimension has a unique wavelength. If you know…”

“What if…?”

Robert, who couldn’t hide his anticipation, waited for Isaac’s answer with a dry spit.

“For the first time in the history of the Empire, we prove the existence of another dimension…—-?”

Robert’s and Isaac’s heads turned simultaneously to the hole in the air.

An ominous and unpleasant flow of mana.

I felt something change in the crack that was barely the size of my palm.

“Robert- Get back! Fast!”

“What, what is…?!”

Isaac, who had been supposed to, came to his senses relatively quickly. Robert couldn’t erase his embarrassment at the grotesque presence flowing out.

“…”

The ominous feeling that shook Robert and Isaac trembled and died down like a lie in an instant.

And after a while

A hole so large that not even a cat could pass through vomited a young man who was taking off his shirt as if liquid were spilling out.

*****

Since some time ago, human rights organizations have grown in size in this world, and now it is really hard to ignore them.

The reason for this was a single study that a famous scholar appeared on public broadcasting during prime time and proved.

As actual research proves that congenital or acquired psychic powers can color a person violently or emotionally.

It is because the opinion that the villains committing evil may not be a voluntary crime has become valid.

Right after that, as if they had waited, the opinions of the media slanted to one side and were dominated. Memoirs of villains in prison become bestsellers.

A bizarre social phenomenon that is hard to believe even if you see it with your own eyes has blown up.

Since that day, there has never been a case where even a vicious villain has been executed after being arrested.

Knowing the changed society and reality, there were many cases in which heroes, who had no room for rehabilitation, thought of elimination rather than arrest in the first place.

A society where a hero, who was an object of admiration for his dedication and service, first came to mind the bleak number of murder and destruction.

After a long effort by a certain group, the social perception that villains are naturally unfortunate and disadvantaged people began to sprout.

January 1, when a number of openly provocative incidents occurred, raising the bar for being evaluated as a heinous crime.

One incident happened.

The tragedy that happened at the hands of a young man who had just turned 22 covered the Internet news that day.

Even if it was a tragedy, the young man’s appearance became an issue rather than the brutality of the incident, and no one thought it strange.

ㅡSuddenly, I was so hungry that I was about to die! I ate and ate, but I was very hungry… I didn’t want to die, so I just ate what was in front of me!

The young man who appeared on the news said he had only eaten a large cake and hamburger when he looked ahead, and wept bitterly.

According to the testimony at the time, he did not know that what he ate was human, and he did not resist at the time of his arrest.

The youthful and smooth face of a young man who stimulates maternal love became so popular that a fan club was formed even though he was branded as a villain.

As he developed his psychic powers, he suddenly felt hungry. He testified that the hunger was so unbearable that he could not survive without eating the food in front of him.

He complained of mental problems and confusion, saying that he only saw food in his eyes.

A criminal who killed an unknown number of people and ate human flesh in a hurry and was arrested on the spot.

He was sentenced to stay in a treatment center for one year, and he was dragged out by the judge, shouting that it was unfair.

As the scene was stuffed on the Internet, figures from fan clubs and human rights groups continued to protest in front of the court.

Hearing the news from inside, he turned around and smiled.

‘Sick people~’

If it wasn’t for real arbitrariness, he might have been really unfair.

Of course it was a lie. Now, it’s natural to try to arouse sympathy for the arrested villains.

I tried cannibalism and murder just out of curiosity.

He wanted to know the limits of his ability, so he killed passers-by, so he suddenly wanted to know the taste of people, so he put it in his mouth.

“Haaam-!”

As he was lying on the floor in a straitjacket and looking at the ceiling, his mouth let out an unconscious yawn.

Now that I have cleared my curiosity, I am worried about what to do after going out to society after the treatment center is over.

‘Do you still have 10 months left? It’s boring~ It’s boring~’

If the person who speaks is also talking nonsense, a psychiatrist will be assigned to diagnose a disease that is advantageous to a specific group.

Various media take care of themselves and package criminals as pitiful human beings. In particular, if you are handsome or pretty, the effect is much better.

“Ummm…”

A time when you have no choice but to endure boredom for the sake of the future. The best game was to close my eyes, enjoy the delusion, and then go to sleep.

Today too, the moment when you are about to fall asleep and fall into the land of dreams.

Damn-

There was the sound of something breaking and my eyes opened.

A crack in the air that appeared out of the blue to one who was confined to solitary confinement.

“What, what!”

Coudangtang-!

Sensing that he would be sucked in just by looking at it, he threw his body back and pressed his back against the wall of the solitary cell.

“…?”

After a while, his head began to spin as he noticed that there was no other abnormality.

‘Come to think of it… Didn’t I say that there is a person with the ability to teleport in the Union?’

It is an urban legend that a person with the ability to move through space is sent to scout a criminal who caught his eye in the Villains Union. Those who know that it’s a real story know.

Now that you’ve recognized your true worth, you’ve come directly from the Alliance.

Postponement and efforts for commutation?

As long as the coalition, which is actually ruling the world, came to visit him, there was no need to act unfair and weak.

Jjiik-

The man, who easily tore the straitjacket that was holding his body firmly in place, stepped into the crack without hesitation.
