Chapter 71
Episode 71. New students getting entangled in
a white and spacious lab.
It was a private laboratory obtained through a deal with Deos.
‘It’s also a private laboratory. Look at this size and equipment. It’s different from what you see in the game and what you see in real life.’
As expected, I thought I was good at stabbing, and I recalled the strange energy I felt as I left the principal’s office.
‘I can’t see it because I don’t have affinity, but I was just in case it emitted mana… … .’
When he emitted mana, he could feel something bounce off him.
Deos couldn’t hide his sinister intentions and tried to attach a spirit to me.
If I hadn’t known in advance that he was an elementalist, I would have worn his spirits.
‘Now, let’s do something. Busy busy!’
Where all kinds of tools and equipment for experiments were placed, I had taken out nickel and Timur.
“It’s a real mess.”
Nickel’s damage rate was quite severe.
Since he was the one who fought Hosan to the end, unlike the other undead, there weren’t just one or two places to fix.
right!
Nickel, whether he knew what I was thinking or not, was still trying to swing the sword with one hand.
The good thing about being undead is that there is no pain no matter how damaged the body is.
‘Let’s fix it first.’
In fact, there was unexpected news after the battle with Hosan.
That’s the evolution of Nickel and Timur.
[Sloth Phantom (Legendary) Evolution Probability 32%]
[There is one branch when evolving.]
[Do you want to evolve it?]
[Revenant Fighter (Legendary) Evolution Probability 88%]
[Evolution If you do, there is only one divergence.]
[Do you want to evolve?]
Nickel has only a 32% chance, so I decided to wait and see.
If I failed, I hadn’t checked the consequences yet, so there was no need to take the risk, not in a hurry.
‘Timur deserves a try.’
Ordinary necromancers had limited ways to make a summoned entity stronger.
At least to the extent of providing equipment?
However, I am proud of myself for choosing the Evolution Trait once again, as it can push its potential to the limit.
“Let’s fix it for now.”
If you don’t know, you should fix it and then evolve it.
I took Hosan’s corpse out of the space expansion bag and went straight to work.
With the experience of helping Charon, restoring the undead was an easy task.
It was something I had been doing almost every day in the early days of entering under Charon.
‘I should have done it sooner, but the body rotted a little.’
Nickel’s left arm was replaced with Hosan’s, and all the ribs that were broken or missing were replaced.
Fortunately, Timur only had a lot of small wounds, but he did not lose parts of his body like nickel, so he was easily repaired.
In the first place, unless they were seriously injured, the undead summoned by magic were slowly and automatically restored with my mana.
“Whoa.”
When I checked the time, it was late at night.
I came almost immediately after leaving the principal’s office, so I’ve spent about 10 hours working on it.
Even this would have taken several days without experience.
‘I’m surprisingly dexterous, too.’
It can be seen as almost the only talent that Adrias had before.
Of course, it’s not so special that it appears in the status window.
“Since the repairs are over, it’s the evolution time we’ve been waiting for.”
Unfortunately, the evolution of nickel seemed to have to be postponed until later.
The 32% chance was honestly too risky.
[Revenant Fighter (Legendary)]
[Evolving… … .]
[Remaining time: 342 hours 28 minutes 03 seconds]
It takes about 14 days and 6 hours.
About 2 weeks.
When I used Evolution, Timur scratched his body as if it tickled him, and it looked like he was really alive.
Nickel reacts differently.
‘All that’s left now is the medicine for Lucia and the promise to meet with Benjamin. Is it an exchange meeting next week?’
There was a lot of work to be done.
In the meantime, I had to watch Kyler’s potion come out, so I thought it would be nice to have two bodies.
‘I can’t help it. It’s because I’m preparing for the future as much as I’ve been busy.’
But he couldn’t stop training himself.
Since I decided to remain in the Faculty of Magic, I have to learn not only earth magic but also other magic.
* * *
Chris Yunor was the eldest son of the famous swordsman, Marquis Yunor, and he had great pride.
He has been learning the sword since he was a toddler, and on the day he turned 14, his father encouraged him to enter Monas Academy.
‘The family’s swordsmanship is deep. But it is also like a narrow well. Learn about the wider world.’
As mentioned earlier, Chris was very proud of his family and his swordsmanship, but he could not bear to go against his father.
He implicitly thought that there was no better swordsmanship than the family’s swordsmanship.
Chaeng-Geurang!
‘Lewis beat Chris!’
‘amazing! How did you beat Chris, who is from a famous swordsman?’
However, his pride was shattered shortly after he entered the academy.
And that, too, by mere commoners who were not from the same prestigious family.
‘A mere commoner is a ignorant who has no family swordsmanship!’
It was so humiliating.
What made me even more upset was the fact that I had no choice but to admit that I had lost.
Because his tight personality and standards were strict even to himself.
‘Damn it.’
After that, Chris started training with the momentum to eat away at himself.
Somehow, the lost honor and reputation had to be restored.
3 years like that.
He still couldn’t beat Lewis.
Not only was he unable to beat Louis, but he was unable to sleep at night due to Serena pursuing him closely.
‘How the hell am I supposed to beat him?’
3 years at Monas Academy.
He trained to the extent that everyone around him knew that he worked harder than anyone else.
Of course, someone said that part of the break was also training, but this uneasy mind of oneself made the break not feel like a break.
Chris, who had no reason to enter Rodlen Academy, followed Louis and Serena as if driven by anxiety.
thud!
While Chris was taking a break after putting down a barbell that was too heavy for the general public to improve his strength, the students who were talking around him saw Chris and approached him.
“Oh Chris! Are you done exercising?”
“no. It is still.”
“okay? No, it’s nothing else, did you hear that?”
“What are you talking about?”
“Louise stormed into the Faculty of Magic after the lecture yesterday morning!”
“joy. I don’t know.”
He said so, but even after the break was over, Chris was waiting without lifting the barbell.
And the students who were talking continued as if they were familiar with Chris’ reaction.
“They went to visit someone who became famous in this tournament. Was it Adrias Cromwell? I haven’t seen anyone who uses magic and swords like that.”
Chris was instantly taken aback by those words.
What the hell is a guy who doesn’t dare to focus only on the sword, but just dips and eats this and that!
He didn’t like the fact that Louis, who had been less and less engaged with himself lately, went looking for someone who wasn’t like that.
“But you know what’s funny? Louis went and applied for sparring, but the man named Adrias ignored it without saying a word.”
Having heard that, Chris jumped out of his seat and got up.
The students who were talking about his sudden reaction asked urgently.
“chris? Where?”
“The Faculty of Magic.”
It was Chris who disappeared without leaving a single word.
* * *
Evening time to wrap up the day after all the lectures.
Serena was heading somewhere in a hurry due to the news that had been delivered a while ago.
‘This stupid thing!’
The news was that Chris was suddenly attacking the Faculty of Magic.
I didn’t think much of it until then, but when I heard that the target was Adrias Cromwell, I had no choice but to go to stop it.
For Chris, Louise’s existence was a love-hate goal.
He must have been personally involved in the story of Louis being ignored.
however… … .
‘The senior Adrias I saw that day… … .’
It was a wall that neither she nor Chris could overcome.
Maybe Chris can be so reckless because he didn’t watch the tournament.
Chris’s Yunor family and Serena’s Erestial family have long been rivals.
Even though they were rivals, they weren’t particularly bad, and from the point of view of others who competed with each other to the point of childishness, they seemed to have a deeper friendship than any other family.
Since they were families in between, Serena and Chris had grown up conscious of each other’s existence since childhood.
A good rival and friend.
That was their beginning.
‘Although it’s a bit out of sync now.’
Even when Chris was proud of his family, he wasn’t as clogged up as he is now.
It was no different from any ordinary nobleman’s son who preached chivalry knowing the honor of being an aristocrat.
However, he became dark due to the huge light he met at Monas Academy.
‘It’s getting dark. Not smiling like before. Just practicing like a person possessed by something.’
darkness.
In other words, it was solitude.
Chris chewed on his solitude and turned into a lone wolf.
Chris became a black wolf who rejected the approach of others and only pursued the light.
Serena felt sorry for Chris and felt pity for him.
Knowing his childhood made me feel that way even more.
And because she was like that, I was able to stop Chris.
‘I must be late.’
She took out a tablet from within her arms and checked the news.
Fortunately, his classmates who were with him were following Chris and texting Serena.
‘Arrived at the Faculty of Magic! But I can’t find Adrias-senpai yet!’
After checking the text, Serena muttered worriedly.
“please… … .”
Adrias Cromwell’s notoriety was full.
They say it has changed a bit now, but until last year, they say it was like trash with a broken personality.
If Chris gets into a fight with such a senior first, if he does something wrong, he will be expelled.
As it was the beginning of the semester, being hospitalized was fatal when each lecture was important.
It’s a bonus that the honor and reputation that Chris cares so much about will fall.
As I was thinking, a new text was updated.
‘Serena! once i found it first Senior Adrias in the Research Building of the Faculty of Magic. But I think Chris will come this way too. Stop it quickly!’
Just in time, the train came into the Faculty of Magic grounds.
If you take the train to the research building like this, you will be able to arrive earlier than Chris, who is walking.
“This station… … .”
The train finally arrived and Serena got off the train and looked around.
And I was able to find Chris right away.
“chris!”
Chris’ head turned at Serena’s cry.
He looked at her with a slightly surprised expression.
“Why are you here?”
“Why are you here! I came because of you!”
Serena let out a sigh of relief and walked over to Chris.
Along with the thought of being fortunate, I thought about what I had to convince Chris from now on, and it hurt.
“chris. Did you come to find Adrias-senpai? Don’t do that, let’s just go back.”
“I don’t know where you heard it, but it’s none of your business. you go back.”
Then, a stranger’s voice came from one direction.
“You came to see me?”
Serena got goose bumps behind her and turned her head to see Adrias Cromwell walking from afar.
Where did the beast-like energy and ferocious smile he had seen in the arena go? A man with a cold impression was coldly looking at him and Chris.
“Are you Adrias Cromwell?”
When Chris asked, Adrias looked at him wondering what these guys were up to.
Then he said
“Are you a freshman? I ate rice without rice. You to the senior?”
As expected, the rumored Adrias was not an ordinary personality.
Chris’s eyebrows narrowed at the words of Adrias, who dared to discuss the title.
“I have no intention of treating those weaker than me as seniors.”
“chris!”
In the already serious atmosphere, Serena felt like she was about to lose her mind.
This stupid thing doesn’t even know the subject!
And after hearing Chris’ words, Adrias smiled eerily.
“There was another guy from the Knights Faculty who said that to me at the tournament.”
Adrias, who suddenly snapped his head and made a bone noise, said while looking at Chris and Serena.
“Looks like you came to see me… … .”
Adrias’ energy engulfed the surroundings.
That sticky and dark energy made Serena and even Chris flinch.
“I’ll do whatever you want. Go wild once.”
