I Became a Student at the Transcension Academy

Chapter 64 - Variable (1)

flashes.

When Seo-jun opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was an unfamiliar ceiling.

At the same time, the landscape forcibly injected into the eyes was overall a neat and spacious room.

Ornaments that seem simple yet create an antique atmosphere.

It was a luxurious room not seen anywhere else.

However, the folding screen placed in the corner of the field of vision and the soft touch of silk brushing against the skin.

These things, which can only be seen and felt in historical dramas, were enough to confuse Seo-jun.

“...?”

The accident reminded me of the question of the current situation a beat late.

And a beat later than that, as the memories of the past came flooding back like a panorama, Seo-joon was able to realize that this was the home of Geomseong.

“Seojun! Are you awake?”

Sure enough, Seoyoon's familiar voice came.

When I turned my gaze to the side, Seoyoon was looking at Seojun with an expression somewhere between relief and worry.

And only then did Seo-joon see the bandage wrapped around his shoulder.

Wounds inflicted by the swordsman.

I couldn't check it properly because I passed out right away, but it wasn't a light wound.

It seemed that Seoyoon kept her seat while nursing.

Seo-jun slowly got up from his seat feeling grateful to Seo-yoon.

“How faint was I?”

“It hasn’t been long. He doesn't lie down any longer than that...”

Seo-joon shook his head lightly.

It was not a light wound, but it was not fatal, and above all, there was no time to lie down.

“Rather than that, Sword Saint…”

It was then.

jump.

The door suddenly opened and the swordsman came inside with Seomuncheol.

Seo-joon didn't know if he heard Seo-joon wake up because he appeared at the perfect timing or if the timing was really good.

Geomseong walked towards Seo-jun without saying a word and looked at Seo-jun blankly.

At the same time, Seo Mun-cheol also looked at Seo-joon.

And for some reason, Seo-jun felt that the eyes of the two were quite different.

In addition, Seojun was worried about what would happen if the swordsman changed his words.

That would also be true, but what Seo-joon applied at the end was actually just a scratch rather than a wound.

And since the condition for Seo-joon's victory was ‘valid hit', the criterion for judging scratches was ambiguous.

Geomseong looked at Seo-jun for a long time, wondering if he knew what Seo-jun was thinking, then handed him something.

“Take it.”

Seo-joon unexpectedly received the item that Geomseong gave him.

And it was none other than the Blue Dragon Sword.

“Lord Moon!”

“Ha grandpa?”

At the same time, Seo Moon-cheol and Seo-yoon widened their eyes in surprise.

“Why did you do this to me…?”

And it wasn't much different from Seojun.

The swordsman spoke calmly.

“Don’t make a fuss. I'm just trying to keep my promise.”

promise?

As Seo-jun tilted his head, Geomseong continued to speak.

“If you take that sword as a token, you will know that it is my will. It's better for you to do whatever you want than to take care of it myself. Wherever you like, try it.”

In a word, it meant lending your name and at the same time doing what you want because he will do it himself.

The question was whether people noticed that the Sword Saint had intervened, but if it was the Blue Dragon Sword of the Sword Master, it could have been enough proof.

Seojun looked at the blue dragon sword and said.

“Are you really giving this to me?”

Then, the Sword Master replied with a bewildered expression.

“……Write it all down and bring it.”

While doing so, the Sword Saint secretly glanced at the spear of Longinus placed on one side of the room.

Seeing the figure of the swordsman like that, Seojun knew what to say about the spear, but the swordsman looked away and left the room without a word.

In Korea, there was an organization that managed professional hunters.

Professional Hunter Association.

It's only been a few decades since the cataclysm officially ended.

The concept of a professional hunter was still unfamiliar to people, and the social system had not yet caught up with him.

As a result, conflicts between professional hunters and ordinary people occurred frequently.

So, the Pro Hunter Association did the work of managing such hunters so that they did not deviate from the borders of the country and society.

At the same time, it was a group that raised its voice by representing the various disadvantages caused by it.

Therefore, the Pro Hunter Association is a government agency that manages and supervises hunters, and at the same time.

It could be said that it was a for-profit organization established by professional hunters to protect their interests.

And the representative of such a professional hunter association was the president of the association.

Lee Tae-beom, president of the Korea Professional Hunter Association.

Of course, Lee Tae-bum was also a pro hunter, and in a way, he was a ‘pro hunter' representing Korea, so his skills were nothing to talk about.

More specifically, Pro Hunters and Heroes. It could be said that he was a person in the middle.

It is also true that Lee Tae-beom did not go through a cataclysm completely or completely.

It was because he surpassed the skills of an S-class hunter, but his skills were a bit disappointing to be called a hero.

Of course, that was only in comparison to the heroes. According to the general idea, Lee Tae-bum was a man of great skill.

In addition, the position of the president of the association was closely related to the government.

Therefore, it was necessary not only to have excellent skills but also to have excellent political judgment.

But now.

‘I'm going crazy...'

Even Lee Tae-bum didn't even know how to accept the current situation.

“nice to see you. Association President. My name is Seojun Kim.”

The man who introduces himself as Kim Seo-joon.

In fact, there were not many people in Korea who could embarrass Lee Tae-bum.

It was at most 5 heroes or some S-class hunters.

The reason why Lee Tae-beom feels that Seo-joon is in trouble.

‘Why is Geomseongnim's blue dragon sword here...'

It was because none other than Seo-jun brought the blue dragon sword of the geomseong.

The blue dragon sword was the same sword as the symbol of the sword castle.

But why did this man, not the Sword Saint, have the blue dragon sword of the Sword Saint?

“Is it really the sword saint’s blue dragon sword?”

Unknowingly, Lee Tae-bum had no choice but to go out.

My pride was hurt because I felt like I was only going to bow down to the students, but I couldn't help it.

Lee Tae-beom couldn't handle the responsibility of the Sword Master, and above all, Lee Tae-beom already knew Seo-joon.

It was none other than Amseong who came to me a while ago and threatened... no, asked to deposit 3 billion from a person named Kim Seo-joon.

‘From Amseong-nim to Geomseong-nim... Who the hell is this guy?'

As I was thinking about this and that, Seojun answered.

“I thought the president of the association would recognize it at a glance… didn’t it?”

Lee Tae-bum neither affirmed nor denied.

In fact, Lee Tae-bum knew that the blue dragon sword of the sword castle was real as soon as he saw it.

Lee Tae-bum changed the question.

“May I ask how you have the sword saint’s blue dragon sword?”

“Of course, Geomseong-nim directly gave it to me. Could it be that I stole it?”

“......Sword Saint-nim himself?”

Seeing Seo-jun nodding, Lee Tae-beom couldn't help but doubt his eyes and ears.

The Sword Master gave me a sword that he would never sell even if he gave me hundreds of billions of dollars?

Lee Tae-bum stood in a daze, as if he had lost his mind for a moment.

and.

‘I didn't expect to meet the president of the association in person...'

In fact, Seo-joon was also slightly surprised.

I thought I would be able to hear the information easily, but I honestly did not expect that the president of the association would come out like this.

This time, while fighting directly, I felt it, but the perception that he was Seoyoon's grandfather was strong, so the swordsman was definitely the swordsman.

Whatever the case, the head of the association is the highest person in the association and a representative of professional hunters.

It would have been possible to skip complicated procedures and obtain the necessary information.

Seojun slowly opened his mouth.

“There are a few things I want to know.”

“…you tell me.”

Seeing Lee Tae-bum suddenly come to his senses and answer, Seo-joon asked questions about Man-cheol.

The story is neither too long nor too short.

‘If I had to...'

Lee Tae-bum had no choice but to fall into great trouble.

After putting together Seo-jun's story, the answer Seo-jun is asking for is.

It was because it was something that the devil had previously asked not to tell anyone.

‘Now, even the Demon Lord... is going crazy.'

No matter how much he thought about it, Lee Tae-bum couldn't even figure out how to handle this situation.

Lee Tae-bum continued to worry for a long time.

“Before answering that question, I think we need to check if the blue dragon sword is real.”

And the conclusion at the end was to turn off the time for a while.

“It is at the discretion of the president of the association, but I hope you will answer quickly.”

“I think the determination of authenticity should come first.”

“If things go wrong due to delays in processing… can you take care of the aftermath?”

However, Seo-joon was not dragged along by Lee Tae-bum's numbers.

shit.

Lee Tae-bum swears inwardly.

As the president of the association, Lee Tae-beom was an existence that could not be treated carelessly, even by an S-class hunter.

But it wasn't the swordsman.

No matter how much he was the president of the association, he could not ignore the five heroes.

Even if all the Korean professional hunters came and protested, Lee Tae-beom was able to handle it.

But the swordsman couldn't handle it.

That's why it was right to answer Seo-jun's question now.

‘I'm going crazy...'

The problem was that in order to answer that question, I had to give up the demonic trust.

Is it a swordsman or a demon?

Lee Tae-bum constantly weighed the two between them.

and at the end.

“Huh, actually...”

In the end, Lee Tae-beom raised the hand of a lively swordsman, not an old and sick demon.

After Lee Tae-bum's story, Seo-joon was able to grasp the truth.

And to sum it up, it was:

It was none other than Demonic Spirit who took Man-cheol with him.

And, at the request of the head of the Maseong Association, he was investigating the last 10-star dungeon break.

Then, this time I caught a clue and headed to a specific dungeon to investigate it secretly.

‘Wait, Amseong-nim said that the 10-star dungeon break was done by the Jinrihoe...?'

An ominous smell began to emanate from somewhere.

Seo-joon checked the dungeon where Maseong and Man-cheol were heading and got up right away.

And the moment I was about to leave.

“Oh. This is really just in case.”

Seo-joon asked Lee Tae-bum out of curiosity.

“Can I use this blue dragon sword as collateral for a loan from the association? Well, rather than a loan, I secured the cause and effect of giving up the blue dragon sword... No, I wrote a memorandum. In a word, selling.”

“......”

It took Lee Tae-bum a lot of time to realize that the nonsense was not nonsense, but was really sincere.

After leaving the association, Seo-joon immediately called Soo-yeon.

- Oh brother! Have you contacted your father?

Then, did you wait for Seojun's call or did you just look at your smartphone all day?

Suyeon answered the phone before a few ringtones followed.

Seo-joon told Soo-yeon the stories he found out after a brief thought.

On the day of his disappearance, Man-cheol followed someone suspicious into the dungeon, and it seems that there was a problem there.

Of course, I didn't say that the suspicious person was a demon and that the Jinrihoe was involved.

The head of the association begged him not to reveal anything about it, but it was because Suyeon knew nothing good about it.

-I heard that someone followed someone... But I thought it was because it took a long time... As expected,

Suyeon also knew the news about Mancheol while researching here and there.

And it seemed that the purpose was to reassure Soo-yeon, and it was a little different from the truth.

- Then how...? Oh Dad... Are you dying?

It wasn't long before Suyeon's crying voice was heard over the receiver.

And Seo-joon could fully understand Soo-yeon's feelings.

That's also true, because Soo-yeon's mother also passed away in this way.

It was an accident, to be exact. no one's fault

At that time, Hunters were not completely saturated as they are now.

That's why the dungeon that I couldn't handle was causing the brakes, and it was only that Su-yeon and her mother were nearby.

Su-yeon's mother sacrificed herself to save her life.

Thanks to that, Soo-yeon was able to survive, but her mother was not.

Those years have already exceeded 10 years, and it has been 11 years.

Maybe that's why Man-cheol objected to Su-yeon becoming a hunter.

A hunter is, in a way, a job that fights monsters.

Because I didn't want to lose someone important to the monsters again.

Maybe that's why Soo-yeon wanted to become a hunter.

A hunter is, in a way, a job that has the power to stand up to monsters.

Because I didn't want to lose someone important to the monsters again.

-Me I... I...

The self who had no power.

The fear of losing my dad the way I lost my mother.

And the guilt and helplessness of oneself for not being able to do anything in it.

- How to live alone...

Soo-yeon's voice over the receiver was intertwined with those feelings.

Seojun slightly lowered his gaze.

According to the president of the association, something happened while investigating a 10-star dungeon break.

I don't know why he took Mancheol there.

Still, since he was with Maseong, there was a high possibility that Man-cheol was still alive.

No matter how old and sick he was, his demonic nature was demonic.

Also, Amseong said that the 10-star dungeon break was the work of the Jinrihoe.

In return for knowing that fact, the planet of darkness is currently being pursued by the Jinrihoe.

Perhaps the devil also found some clue about Jinrihoe in the 10-star dungeon break.

Didn't Jinrihoe know about this and plot this incident to get rid of demonic nature?

Maseong knew that Jinrihoe was suspicious, so he informed only the president of the association.

It seemed that the investigation was under way in secret.

But one thing.

What Maseong overlooked was the fact that Jinrihoe could see the target of attention in a special way.

Because I knew the fact, I was able to prepare in advance, but demonic nature did not.

And that means.

It meant that no one could help Maseong and Mancheol.

Because if someone intervenes in this case, the Jinrihoe will notice it right away.

But Seojun was different.

Amseong said that Jinrihoe could not see Seo-joon.

Seo-joon doesn't know exactly what the phrase “can't see” means.

But only one thing was known.

Even if Seo-jun intervenes in this case, Jinri-hoe does not know about it.

No one can intervene or help.

Do not intervene or help.

The moment it intervenes, the moment it helps, Jinrihoe only notices and responds.

A perfect plan that is close to being a one-shot.

Therefore, we must deceive the eyes of the Truth Society.

They have to make a variable out of the plan they think is perfect.

Neither the Sword Saint nor the Demon Saint could do that.

“don't worry.”

that's only

“Because I will definitely bring it.”

Only Seo Joon could do it.
