Academy Dropout Is Too Strong

49. summer vacation (1)

Have you ever cried at someone’s funeral?

I thought I was cold-hearted.

I’ve seen countless deaths by my side, but I’ve never shed tears, so that’s for sure.

I vaguely guessed that it was because I was accustomed to tragedy since I was born, and I lived a life of raiding dungeons and killing monsters.

Around the time I got used to dungeon raids and monster hunting, I got a phone call from somewhere.

—… … According to the contents of the will, I invite you, Choi Kang-jun, my former disciple.

What did you do at first?

history? former disciple?

Among the people around me who are about to die, there is no one who is delicate enough to leave a will, and there is no one who calls me a disciple.

… … After denying the reality for a while, I realized.

Among my acquaintances, there is still one person who is delicate and will call me a disciple.

It’s really dumbfounded.

Going to the funeral home of someone I never imagined would die before me.

It is truly pitiful to sit on your knees and shed tears all day long at the grave of a person who couldn’t even leave a corpse for some reason.

I wasn’t too happy when the elf with tear marks on his face spoke of the inheritance he had given me in a voice that maintained a fairly calm voice.

If I had earned that fortune by doing something else, I would have danced with great excitement.

Dressed in mourning clothes, I was uninspired, as if my worldly desire had evaporated in an instant.

On the other hand, the moment I recognized my condition, I was very funnyly relieved.

The fact that I am not a good enough person to rejoice at your death for this amount of money.

Calling myself an idiot for being so relieved, I stayed up all night in tears, pouring myself a drink, and reciting your name in desperation.

I finally realized the pain of losing a loved one.

I hate to see someone die.

still.

I’ll probably hate it until I die.

“… … Mmm.”

Feeling my whole body tingle, I tossed over and lifted my heavy eyelids.

how long have you been asleep

In an instant, the light that leaked in was dazzling, and my vision was bathed in brilliance.

I blinked a few times to focus, and the face right in front of my nose was properly formed on my retina for the first time.

Blue eyes that look like the sea.

There was someone looking at me who always made me feel benevolent with a playful smile.

“Woke up?”

Hearing that carefree voice made it all seem like a dream.

But it couldn’t be.

I knocked on my messy head, sorted out my confused thoughts, and answered.

“Yes, very clean.”

It looked like he needed to recuperate because his veins were a bit damaged, but it was good that he survived.

Did you have similar thoughts?

The master laughed and chanted quietly.

“I’m so glad.”

In the pitch-black darkness, the god of ten thousand horses raised his eyelids.

As if he could see through even the future that no one could see, the king silently glared into the darkness.

“My son is dead.”

Death itself was not a problem. I was sent to die anyway.

However, among the children sent, there was one who lost his life too early.

Giant of Destruction, Gaylord.

The energy that had risen like a volcano plummeted to the floor in an instant.

He lost his life much faster than expected, without even having time to carry out his mission.

It was a soul that shouldn’t have died like that.

… … The future only gets twisted.

In order to keep pace with the rapidly changing future, they are speeding up the invasion of cities and accelerating preparations for war, but the future runs faster.

The demon king finally admitted it.

There are unpredictable variables.

If you can’t solve this, you don’t have the right to talk about world domination.

“My sons.”

At the king’s call, the souls hiding in the darkness raised their heads.

They engraved the eyes of their king and the god they serve.

“Looks like you need to welcome a new brother.”

Having said that, the demon king came down from the throne and placed his hand on the prepared coffin.

Inside are the corpses of ancient Murim people and the blood of countless and various transcendental beings.

Although there is a gap with true transcendence, they were the souls of beings of a much higher rank.

“Rivers of dark red blood will flow from your spirit. Be the terror of all.”

The demon king gave an order.

***

Cheonyang Jieum Taegeukmu (天陽地陰太極武).

Taegeuk’s pole suit that gathers and uses the spirit of the world.

After all, it was a technique that was close to the crowd even after reaching the state of transcendence beyond the climax.

It wasn’t until a week or so that I was able to get up after robbing the bed in the infirmary.

It seemed that the load was severe because he moved again in a repulsive state.

“It’s been a while.”

Feeling that the care of the qi was completed now, I put on my school uniform and left the room.

Since it’s vacation, no one will say anything about wearing plain clothes, but since sometime, this has been comfortable.

You don’t have to worry about what to wear, and it’s a sophisticated design.

After leaving the penthouse dormitory, I shaded my hands as soon as I came out.

The intense sunlight shooting from the sky above my head tried to pierce my eyes.

Regardless of the level, he is a fearsome guy.

“It’s filthy bright.”

Is this really summer?

Suddenly, I wondered if we would all go to the beach at least once, and I was playing with my feet.

Well, in reality, it will take a long time for it to happen because the vacation started and they scattered all over the place.

Now I don’t even have the time to do that.

‘The future has changed.’

A magic engineer awakens and releases a new technology, or a top-level cadet drops out.

A problem of a fundamentally different level of seriousness has emerged.

A demonic invasion of the world’s major cities has been brought forward years early, starting with a school terrorism that has grown larger than expected.

The beginning of a war that shouldn’t have happened in the first place began to flicker in my sight.

It shouldn’t be like this.

I must become stronger.

A level that can solve everything at once without anyone getting hurt… …

“If such a thing were possible, he would have reached the top of the line long ago, rather than being a world hero.”

My thoughts were interrupted by the sharp tone.

Wearing a uniform, Lee Chung looked at me with a bright smile as always and added a few words.

“Hero of Seoul, aren’t you sad?”

“… … Uh huh.”

“Uh-huh, to say uh-huh to senior.”

“… … .”

No matter how you look at it, Master’s face is full of mischief.

By the way, the fact that she said that she was a ‘hero of Seoul’ was like a rumor that spread as if someone had seen me kill monsters while running.

A young man in a school uniform of a leader killed a giant and even cleaned up all the monsters in the street.

‘… … It’s a shame that the information didn’t spread.’

Perhaps because of my inclination to not reveal my skills, my identity did not spread worldwide thanks to the cooperation of all members of the Hyangwoo Association and the Student Council.

Yes, I was very fortunate.

In the New York Times, ‘Seoul’s Hero Appears, Cadet Choi Kang-Jun.’ If an article with the same title had appeared, it would have been embarrassing and I would have been more disciplined for a week.

I wondered if the New York side would have the spirit to post such an article because of the invasion.

“Isn’t it sad that your name didn’t come up?”

The master tilted his head and asked me in a sincere tone.

As expected, he doesn’t know the heart of an introverted person.

“Not at all.”

“Hmm, you also have to pay for your name soon so you can earn a living later, right? This case was definitely big enough to make a special issue.”

“… … I don’t need any nicknames.”

“really? Why are you cool?”

Usually, a special issue is created by synthesizing the subject’s background, main martial arts, and inclination.

In my previous life, I was an orphan, a former mercenary, and I didn’t have a fancy nickname because I didn’t have a clear martial arts skill.

I didn’t even want to commit myself, at least it was a fist fight or a fist fight.

‘… … It would have been great if they stuck together.’

It was a nickname given to me when I was rolling around as a mercenary, so I don’t even want to remember it.

He was the 2nd god of war, and similar to the guy called Mad Dog, the word dog was attached to the nickname, so I didn’t like it.

Later, by the time he became one of the world’s leading masters, there was no one in the world to talk about rumors about, so a special issue wasn’t made properly.

So what do you do?

It’s been a long time since I gave up on a nice nickname.

I had never been given a really nice nickname in my previous life, and this time I wasn’t greedy enough to cling to such a vain reputation.

Whether or not he knew how I felt, Lee Cheong looked at me with clear eyes and then said.

“Hmm, if you don’t want your name to spread like that, there’s nothing you can do about it.”

“Yes, there is nothing I can do.”

Make a name for yourself as a tax-saving master.

It was something I wanted to avoid if possible until the issue of the Great War was resolved.

At first glance, the awl in the hand and the dagger hidden in the pocket have different levels of stealth.

Thinking so, I was comforted by the fact that the article had not been published, when the teacher suddenly asked me.

“Then may I attach it to you?”

“… … ? A nickname?”

“Yeah, I couldn’t see the juniors I cherish working as unknowns. to build in advance.”

I am so grateful.

– Just when I thought about it, Lee Cheong, who was wearing a uniform, suddenly threw out his fist.

With a very mischievous smile.

“If you do good to me, I’ll give you a very cool nickname.”

“… … aha.”

I don’t want a nickname that far.

Also, a person who wears a gamtu cannot understand the mind of an introverted person.

I corrected my posture before I knew it, and I raised my energy and smiled at him.

“What a wonderful nickname you want me to give you.”

summer vacation for two months.

I was going to spend that time in special training with a tax-saving master so that it would not be wasted.

with my master.
