I Became a Student at the Transcension Academy

Chapter 125



Chapter 125 - Across the Sea (1)

“The situation in Europe?”

At Lee Tae-bum's question, Seo-joon tilted his head.

That was also because Seo-jun had no idea what the situation was like in Europe.

Then Lee Tae-bum nodded as if he knew that.

Then, he took out his smartphone from his pocket, manipulated it a few times, and handed it to Seo-jun.

“It would be faster to see it for yourself than to explain it.”

Seo-jun immediately accepted the smartphone Lee Tae-beom handed over.

The first thing I saw on the screen I received was none other than a black screen.

Seo-joon flinched at the moment, but of course it wasn't a lecture at a transcendent academy.

It's just a standby screen before the video starts playing.

Seo-jun smiled awkwardly and pressed the ? button in the center of the screen.

Hold on.

.

.

The screen, which changed with the touch, reflected the city's scenery exuding an exotic feel.

uk? france?

I don't know exactly where, but what's certain is that it was a landscape that anyone could easily tell that it was the West.

-Kerrrrrrr...

And an ominous sound coming from somewhere.

Just hearing this sound, as if the vocal chords were being shattered, made me feel uncomfortable.

Soon after, the owner of the sound appeared on the screen.

A monster in the shape of a giant lizard.

“basilisk...?”

It was none other than a 9-star monster, the Basilisk.

The Basilisk lifted its huge tail and began destroying nearby buildings.

-Quaaaaaang! Quaang!

The surrounding buildings collapsed as if heads were crushed by the basilisk's tail.

It is only natural that buildings made of concrete cannot withstand the power of the 9-star monster Basilisk.

But the problem was, why was the basilisk in the middle of the city?

-Kyaahhhh!

People's screams erupted at the same time as the sound of the building collapsing.

On the screen that flipped back and forth, people could be seen running away in a panic.

Abigyuhwan's appearance.

right at that moment.

The basilisk started looking at the front of the screen.

It seemed to be looking at the person who was filming the video.

-Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

Sure enough, a tearing scream erupted and the screen shook.

After a while, the video on the screen, which became quiet, was blankly reflecting only the empty space.

I felt like I was running away, throwing away the device I was taking the video with.

And right at that moment.

- Kieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Chijik...!

The groaning sound of the basilisk was heard, and the video ended with a loud noise.

.

.

“What is this…”

The video ended, but Seo-joon couldn’t easily put down his smartphone.

“Is this the current situation in Europe?”

A monster that walks openly through the city.

A landscape resembling an abyss.

Even in the days of great cataclysms, this was a case of believability.

Lee Tae-bum nodded and replied.

“Not all countries in Europe are like that, but it is confusing.”

“No, why?”

Seo-joon asked Lee Tae-bum with round eyes.

With the end of the cataclysm, the era of artificial awakening is possible.

Now, it was an era where both dogs and cows could become pro hunters.

Not only in Korea, but pro hunters from all over the world were also saturated everywhere.

That's why the video just didn't make sense.

In the first place, it was raided before the dungeon even braked.

Even if the brakes happened, the monster couldn't even walk openly to the middle of the city like this.

Lee Tae-bum also nodded slightly as if he knew how he felt.

“Recently, they say that the Distortion dungeons are running rampant in Europe.”

“Distortion? No, it's just because of the Distortion...!”

Seo-jun stopped talking and hurriedly shut his mouth.

It was because he didn't think it was just a Distortion.

Actually, I didn't have to go that far, just looking at the draug dungeon a while ago gave me an answer.

If it wasn't for Seo-jun, Young-seong couldn't come out of the Draug Dungeon alive.

Then, in the end, the Draug dungeon would have been braked without being dealt with, and the Draug would have been released out of the world.

In addition, even the demon that Seo Jun had annihilated.

Then, the landscape of the video I just watched made some sense.

In Korea, there was a high possibility that a more horrific scene was produced.

As such, if it had already happened in Korea, there was no law that it would not happen in a foreign country.

“The video you just saw is none other than Italy. The Italian government tried to calm the situation by mobilizing professional hunters... but it seems that it was not enough.”

“Isn’t Andrea there?”

At that moment, the voice of spirituality came from upstairs.

It seemed that Youngseong heard the commotion and came down for a while.

“Is this a situation where there are too many twists and turns that Andrea can’t handle?”

Then, as if he overheard the conversation between Seo-jun and Lee Tae-bum, Young-seong's expression was puzzled.

“Andrea... are you referring to Andrea of Sicily?”

“So it is.”

Young-soo slowly nodded at Seo-joon's question.

Andrea of Sicily.

Like the five Korean heroes, he was a cataclysmic hero representing Italy.

In a word, the question of spirituality was no different from asking what Andrea was doing.

And Lee Tae-beom's answer that followed was quite shocking.

“It is said that Andrea passed away recently.”

“What what? Are you saying Andrea is dead?”

Lee Tae-bum nodded his head heavily.

“What the hell why?”

“They say it was a dungeon accident. I haven't heard the details, but it seems that the Distortion happened while dealing with the dungeon.”

“Huh...”

Lee Tae-bum's answer made Yeong-sung drooling for a long time.

Then, Young Sung's eyes turned to Seo Jun.

Seo-joon faced the gaze of such spirituality.

Seo-joon fell into deep thought.

It was because he couldn't erase the feeling that it was quite similar to the case of spirituality somewhere.

If I had to pick one thing that was different, it was just one.

It was only that Seo-jun was present in Korea and not in Italy.

And the word of darkness that Jinrihoe is trying to eliminate the heroes of the cataclysm.

Was it really a dungeon accident?

Seo-joon and Young-sung had no choice but to question that fact.

“And it is said that the situation is similar not only in Italy but also in other European countries. The heroes of the cataclysm in other countries are struggling, but the situation is like this...”

So the situation grew out of control.

“In the end, the European Union said they asked for help from the Jinrihoe.”

In the end, I had no choice but to ask for help from the Jinrihoe.

The Jinrihoe is a religious organization for human salvation that ended the cataclysm.

Jinrihoe, which is active all over the world, has been doing charitable acts worthy of its prestige.

“With Jinrihoe coming out, this situation is gradually calming down. But they said it was too much for them to handle with so many countries in Europe.”

‘Hmm...'

Lee Tae-bum's words forced Seo-joon to fall into deep thought once again.

To be honest, Seo-joon suspected that the Distortion was caused by the Truth Society.

However, they are raising it up and stepping out to calm this situation?

Somehow, the actions of the Jinrihoe were again inconsistent.

‘Or... is it that I can't completely control the Distortion?'

It was only a piecemeal speculation, but at least I could leave it open as a possibility.

“But why are you telling me this…?”

Then Lee Tae-bum looked at Seo-joon and said.

“Sir Calia has asked Korea for help. to help Italy.”

“Is the situation in Europe so serious that it cannot be resolved even if Jinrihoe comes forward?”

“It is, but… in fact, Italy is not necessarily for that reason.”

“yes?”

This time, Young-seong answered Seo-joon's tilting head.

“It must be because Andrea is dead.”

“That's right.”

Then Lee Tae-bum nodded as if he was right.

Seojun tilted his head once more.

Of course, Andrea is Italy's only Cataclysm hero.

Therefore, his death could be said to be a very serious matter.

But a hero of cataclysm is only a hero of cataclysm.

Just because he died didn't mean that pro hunters would disappear.

Not to mention the A-class and S-class hunters with good skills in Italy.

There were also hunters who approached the heroes of the cataclysm like Ryu Jin-cheol and Lee Tae-beom.

But why...?

As if he knew Seo-jun's question, Young-seong continued his speech.

“Andrea was a hero of cataclysm and at the same time a mafia godfather.”

Sicilian Mafia.

Andrea was the first godfather to unite the mafia, a global criminal group.

“Andrea was a madman who always screamed that he would rehabilitate that criminal group. Rehabilitation of a criminal group spanning the world. Of course, I dismissed it as nonsense, but... he really did it.”

After Andrea unites the Mafia, the Mafia's crime rate begins to drop noticeably.

It was changing its image as a security group rather than a criminal group.

“Of course, there was opposition from within the mafia, but the little ones couldn’t surpass the cataclysmic hero.”

In reality, there were mafia organizations that rebelled against Andrea, but all of them were crushed by Andrea.

And that to only one Andrea.

Andrea, the godfather who led the mafia with such overwhelming power.

Andrea died suddenly.

“Isn’t it obvious how crazy dogs that lose control will react? At least it started to run amok. Perhaps now Italy is in a state of anarchy.”

“Ah...”

After hearing Yeongseong's words like that, Seojun was able to nod.

no wonder.

No matter how rampant the Distortions were, the scene I had just seen in the video in this era made no sense.

It was literally a sight you would only see in Cataclysm.

However, if the words of spirituality were true, it was understandable enough.

Because the government is not doing its job properly because of the rampaging mafia.

“It is said that the Italian government secretly requested help from the Jinrihoe. However, they said that the Jinrihoe had its own problems.”

It is also true that Jinrihoe is a religious organization to the last.

It was a position that could not be easily approached on political issues.

But that doesn't mean you can't just sit still.

Young-seong frowned and shouted at Lee Tae-beom.

“So... are you asking this child to do something that even the heroes of Cataclysm couldn't handle? Do you think that makes sense now?”

“Of course I declined. There's no way I would send Hunter Kim Seo-joon to such a dangerous place. However, Lord Calia asked me to convey the words, so I only brought up the story.”

No matter how absurd it was, if it came out of Jinrihoe's mouth, it could not be ignored.

Jinrihoe is a global human salvation organization.

Among them, if it was a request for the position of successor to the apostle of chastity, he had to at least pretend.

“Hunter Kim Seo-joon doesn’t have to move. I also don't think it's necessary for Hunter Kim Seo-joon to go to an area where danger lurks in a foreign country.”

Along with those words, Lee Tae-bum kept his mouth shut as if waiting for Seo-joon's answer.

Youngseong also waited for Seojun's answer, which would follow.

“Um…”

Facing the gaze of the two, Seo-joon thought once more.

The Suspicious Truth Society.

Above all, Calia pointed out Seo-joon, not anyone else.

It seemed that it was necessary to dig into the question a little.

How much time had passed like that?

“I...”

Seo-joon's mouth opened slowly.

#

“Give me some money…?”

“......”

Calia could not bear to answer the question of the Apostle of Temperance.

I didn't know exactly what to answer.

Calia is speechless.

The Apostle of Temperance was also speechless at Calia's appearance.

Of course, Seo-joon's request itself was justified.

Compensation is a must.

However, that was a request to the Italian government, which received help, not to the arbiter, Jinrihoe.

Even so, there is only one thing to say confidently.

“Does Seojun Kim know our purpose?”

“I don’t think… it doesn’t.”

Calia firmly shook her head.

“Then why?”

“I wonder if it's right to say this...”

Calia spoke out after a long thought.

“It seems Kim Seo-joon is just crazy about money.”

“......”

The Apostle of Temperance was momentarily at a loss for words.

“......”

“......”

The silence continues.

“How much did Seojun Kim ask for?”

The Apostle of Temperance, who came to his senses, asked Calia again.

“100 billion.”

“......Crazy.”

The Apostle of Temperance's eyebrows furrowed.

Of course, to Jinrihoe, 100 billion could not be seen as money.

The financial power of Jinrihoe, which spreads around the world, was almost limitless.

The problem was that only the money they were asking for from Jinrihoe was 100 billion won.

I don't know, but there must be some compensation from the Italian government.

It seemed that Kim Seo-joon noticed some connection with Jinri-hoe in this incident.

Otherwise, this request could not have been made.

“Instead, he also said that he would not go alone this time, but with the members of the Dream Team.”

“Hmm...”

The Apostle of Temperance fell into deep trouble at Calia’s continued words.

It was a series of difficult situations in many ways because I couldn't see it.

After deep thought, the apostle of temperance slowly opened his mouth.

“Gives the request.”

“yes? Ha but...!”

Calia was taken aback, but the Apostle of Temperance did not budge.

“The Distortion monster that swallowed Andrea still remains in Italy. You say you'll go on your own, so what's the point of stopping you?”

“......”

Calia was silent for a moment at the apostle’s calm moderation.

A distorted monster that swallowed the Italian hero Andrea.

It was because Calia knew better than anyone how terrible it was.

It was a monster that could not even be compared with the Korean devil.

“Why are you doing this?”

So Calia had no choice but to ask.

Of course, the degree of interest Jinrihoe had in Seo-jun was excessive.

No matter how invisible Seojun was, it was not something he would do to this extent.

No, in that case, it would have been enough for Sado to step out and deal with Seo-jun.

But the reason why it is so cumbersome to draw a big picture...

“Calia. I know that there is not much time left before the apostle ceremony. If you become an apostle of chastity, then you will know everything.”

The Apostle of Temperance turned around and left without answering.

“That...”

However, Calia's hesitant voice made the Apostle of Temperance stop for a moment.

“Is there anything left to report?”

Calia pondered seriously whether she should say this or not.

But in the end, what you need to know.

Calia slowly opened her mouth.

“Please pay in advance...”

“......”

For the first time in his life, the Disciple of Temperance felt astonishingly ascending to heaven.

#

“... so I went to Italy.”

Seojun told his teammates all the previous stories.

“All of us?”

And then Seoyoon's question.

Seojun shook his head resolutely.

“no. It's not coercion. You don't have to go if you don't want to go. As I said, Italy is very dangerous right now. I want to go once...”

That moment.

“and! It is an overseas trip!”

“Italian pizza! Pasta!”

Min-yul and Su-yeon started shouting in a bright color.

What was so exciting about it, their eyes lit up and they started talking about something.

If you think about it, Min-yul was a native who practiced confined to the mountains.

Su-yeon was a high school girl who had just become an adult.

It sounds like you are very excited to leave Korea.

At least Lee Ha-yoon had an expressionless face.

I wondered if Lee Ha-yoon wasn't too keen on it, but when I looked closely, I could see that her eyes were shaking as if an earthquake had struck.

Seojun sighed and corrected his words.

“It's not a trip, it's because I'm going to handle the Distortion dungeons.”

“Colosseum!”

“Leaning Tower of Pisa!”

“Didn’t it all collapse during the cataclysm?”

“Eek!? Is that true, Hayoon unnie?”

“As far as I know is?”

“Oh, no!”

Why didn't I listen to Seo-jun's words with the back of my ears?

“I guess it's already been decided?”

“Ehh...”

Seo-joon shook his head.
