My Cell Prison

Chapter 49: Cleared

Core exposed.

Han Dong was well aware that with a body like his, fighting a protracted battle was impossible.

Seize the opportunity.

With the "Plague Doctor's Short Blade" grabbed in his left hand.

Upon seeing an object similar to the core attached to the stomach pouch, Han Dong stabbed out with his sword.

Not only did the short sword carry poisonous properties, it was also very sharp itself.

The core, which did not have any protective layer, was pierced with a crack by this sword... Plague energy, visible to the naked eye, overflowed from the tip of the sword and soaked into the core through the crack opening!

Ka.

Completely shattered.

This 'sewing monster' that needed to be sustained by its core was like a marionette that had lost its strings, its body went limp as mud, and it had no sense of danger.

The Dark Moon Forest belonged to the territory of the Department of Mysteries.

Han Dong suspected that these crows parked on the branches could monitor their every move, so he didn't sacrifice a special metal syringe and didn't take the risk of extracting the cell essence of the sutured creature.

"Um... what's going on in this forest?"

Han Dong was not allowed to examine the dead sutures in detail.

The seemingly normal land actually turned into a mud puddle and sucked the stitches into it.

"Will it come back to life?!"

Han Dong couldn't confirm if the stitches monster that were sucked into the ground would come back to life and continue to attack them.

Seizing the time, Han Dong assisted Pasha and left the forest as quickly as possible.

One hour.

Due to Han Dong's superior sense of direction, he managed to leave this grotesque Dark Moon Forest without taking any detours.

As for the suspicion of resurrection, it didn't happen... the land took the stitches away and 'recycled' them nine times out of ten.

A gurgling stream.

A clear stream of up to five meters in width served as the borderline of the Dark moon Forest, separating the forest from the central built-up area within.

By simply crossing an arched wooden bridge, one would reach the core building area of the Mysticism Department.

Before crossing the wooden bridge, the building was completely obscured by a thick mist, making it impossible to see its overall scale.

"We've... finally made it out! Thank you, Nicholas."

The Middle Eastern girl's eyes were filled with gratitude, and she even felt like she was about to cry... Without Han Dong, she would have died long ago.

"Well, good luck."

"Nicholas, let's hurry across the wooden bridge and go to the main building to submit the test items... According to the rules of the test, it's not complete without turning in the items, and there might still be some danger in the meantime."

Pasha was right, it had to be done quickly.

However, Han Dong stopped in the middle of the wooden bridge and stared at the clear stream flowing from underneath it.

"My stuff, why don't you give it back to me?"

In response to Han Dong's question, Pasha looked confused, "What is it?"

"The real metal box...you switched it, didn't you? I'm not sure of the exact timing of the switch, but if I just go ahead and submit my assignment to the Department of Mysteries building, I'll most likely be judged 'failing', right?"

For a moment, the atmosphere changed.

"It won't be a failure, but it will just reduce the points."

For a moment, the little Pasha girl whose ankle had been cut open with scissors didn't even need to hold onto the guardrail of the wooden bridge... standing in the middle of the wooden bridge on her own, her face expressionless.

Han Dong immediately turned around and crossed his short sword in front of him... The ghoul's arm also triggered corresponding characteristics.

However, Pasha's next move was not to harm Han Dong.

Instead, she took the real metal box containing the eyelids out of nowhere and handed it to Han Dong.

To a certain extent, it means that Pasha's real identity is not the kind of sneaky student who deliberately switched the package to enjoy the results of the test alone.

Rather, it was one of Han Dong's 'interfering items' in the test.

Pasha stared at it and asked curiously, "When did you see that?"

Han Dong accepted the real metal box and put away the short sword after confirming that Pasha was not a 'sinister villain'.

"From the beginning, I was suspecting that it wasn't your acting skills that were the problem, but rather that you've made a fundamental mistake... relying on me too much.

From joining Destiny Space, until now.

With physical qualities like mine, my teammates tend to dismiss me at first glance, not even believing that I'm a trainee knight.

You, on the other hand, appeared without any doubt at all and tried to team up with me.

According to you, you could have continued to wait in the cabin for the next trainee knight to arrive. There was no need to conduct a test with someone who was in extremely poor health and had chosen a dangerous item like me.

It might have been something you divined ahead of time, but you still seem too aggressive to make me suspicious... After all, my image cannot make the opposite sex feel any sense of security."

Faced with Han Dong's explanation, Pasha couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Hahaha! It's funny, so it's a mistake here... You really can't trust your teammates with a body like that, it's really bad with a severe nutritional deficiency and skinny skin.

Hey, it's a mistake indeed."

Han Dong continued, "Of course, your performance is also too commonplace, not at all like a trainee knight who has experienced the Destiny Space... So, I'm almost certain that you're either deliberately pretending to be a greenhorn, trying to secretly switch the Key props while sitting back and enjoying it, or you are part of the test."

Clap!

Hearing this, Pasha began to applaud.

"Awesome... Also, I have one more question.

What was the reason why you chose to stay when I lost my line power?

Is it because of Justice mindset, or did you guess my identity ahead of time, considering 'I' was also part of the test and stole important items?

That's why you chose to stay and fight around me."

Han Dong said without hesitation.

"Just a choice made from my own self-interest... In today's world, very few people would fight to the death for a stranger they've just met, right?

I'm just considering that saving you might give the test a higher rating.

Also, your divination does attract sutures...this one will give us a 'head start'."

Pasha nodded, "Well, you can report to the main building now."

Said.

Pasha, the young girl, disappeared in front of Han Dong.

At the same time, [Stargazing Room], a certain special person smiled in satisfaction.

........

"Phew... I thought there was still a tough battle to be fought, but I didn't think I would just have to reveal my identity.

There are quite a few points assessed by this test, and it's troublesome if I don't pay attention."

The dense fog dispersed on its own as he crossed the wooden bridge.

It should be that Han Dong had entered the inside of the dense fog boundary, thus no longer being disturbed by the fog.

It was completely different from the Knight Teaching Building that Han Dong had imagined.

What was erected in front of it was a giant castle tower that towered to the sky.

The medieval architectural style, which appeared to be made of gray stone bricks on the surface, might have actually used some kind of special material, allowing the building to bring an extremely oppressive feeling to an ordinary people.

And Han Dong realized a problem.

"Strange, this kind of building that towers straight up into the clouds should be obvious... Why can't I see it on the outskirts of the school? Is it possible that some kind of magical means was used to hide this building?"

In order to lean towards the ancient castle tower, one would also have to cross a graveyard that was filled with dense gloom.

The cemetery was so vast that there was no such thing as a detour... It seemed that the cemetery was the castle's 'front yard'.

Just as Han Dong was carefully walking on the stone pathway laid in the center of the cemetery.

An eerie, long-haired arm stretched out abruptly from one side of the graveyard... This sudden arrival of Jump-Scare frightened Han Dong, who also turned around at once to prepare for battle.

Climbing out was one of the cemetery's 'occupants'.

While climbing out and wearing a still neat formal dress, and inserting two spare eyeballs into the empty eye sockets.

After inserting the tongue and dentures into the mouth, a 'relatively friendly' sound is made.

"New trainee knight, I am your temporary steward-Aji. Next, I will be leading you into the [Dark Moon Gauntlet]."
