chapter 30
30. No. 2057
The sight flashed.
The impact from the front threw his head back, and he hit the wall up to the back of his head.
“Keep.”
He sat down with a short moan.
Something flowed from his nose.
‘This is… blood.’
that blood was shed.
do you mean it’s reached?
just that chain?
I couldn’t believe it even though I had experienced it myself.
Shin Min-seok has two abilities.
One of them is Barrier.
It is a veil that is always spread out, invisible to others.
It’s strength is quite high, so it won’t break with most attacks…
You said it was pierced?
“…”
flinch.
Shin Min-seok raised his head and trembled involuntarily.
It was because of living that made the whole body goosebumps.
Shin Min-seok swallowed dry saliva.
An ordinary life is a law without a clear image.
It’s just that the enemy’s hostility is fully revealed, and you can feel the fear caused by it.
But this is a little different.
A clear image of dozens of blades pointed at my throat.
I can’t lift a hand
‘Pink hair… is it Nari Seo?’
He was one of those people to watch out for.
······Warning?
Don’t give a damn.
This is not a ‘caution’ level.
“…”
Nari Seo looked around in silence.
No one made a quick move.
Without exception, Kim Soo-young looked at the situation without a smile.
At that time, Nari Seo’s gaze lingered on Kim Soo-young for a while.
A face contemplating something.
Nervous Kim Soo-young raised her nails.
However, Nari Seo inserted the chain and headed for the back door.
The three B-class people standing in front of the door passed by without even paying attention.
‘Where are you going…?’
It seemed a bit rushed.
It doesn’t seem like running away…
“······you.”
Shin Min-seok pointed out the invisible ability.
“Follow that girl. If you think it’s dangerous, you can step back.”
“······okay.”
The transparency ability followed Nari Seo, and Shin Min-seok stood up.
“Ouch… I think it’s broken.”
After fiddling with his nose, he wiped the blood with a handkerchief.
“There was a moment of commotion. Then again… uh.”
Could it be because of Seo Nari’s actions?
The atmosphere that I had worked so hard to create had changed a little.
I could tell from the eyes of a few people.
Confidence that you can do it yourself, and the will to solve this situation.
Well, it’s Hero Academy.
If you give me a little hope, these kids will come out.
‘Stupid bastards.’
Clicking his tongue, Shin Min-seok checked the time.
Because Seo Nari took up time, five minutes had already passed.
The average time the heroes arrive on the scene is around 10 minutes, so I’d assume they’d be there in 5 minutes.
Even if you find out Lee Yu-hyeon’s location now, it’s difficult to kill him.
In other words, the operation is a failure.
‘What did Lee Hye-sung say?’
I was instructed to do this when I couldn’t kill Yuhyeon.
‘I told them to kill me and come out. ······It’s better if you kill the consignment.’
If you kill as many students as possible, the perception that ‘the academy is no longer safe’ will be planted.
Besides, what if there are students who are not affiliated with the academy among the victims?
The ripple effect will be enormous.
“Aww, you psychopath bastard.”
I honestly don’t like it, but what can I do?
It’s a boss order.
“Operation is a failure. just kill them all Ah, Mr. Kim Soo-yeong, please wait for now.”
Despair once again appeared on the faces of the students.
However, some students who had hopes were different.
As the villains approached, they activated this ability and started resisting.
Either because of pride or a sense of duty.
His ferocious will was admirable.
Yes, even though I am a student.
The abdomen of the female student who was running at the forefront was pierced by the villain’s blade.
Shin Min-seok looked out the window because he didn’t want to watch the horror.
“······uh.”
There, I met someone’s eyes.
It was a very strange thing.
It’s definitely outside the window, but to see eye contact.
Clink-!!
The next moment, someone broke through the window and entered.
“Um, isn’t Joo Hyun-ah here?”
It was Lee Yoo-hyun.
***
There are no always-remaining heroes in the academy. So I tend to focus more on security.
But now, all of that security has been breached.
Were the villains simply seasoned?
no
Even near the academy, there are dozens of CCTVs.
It is impossible for any villain to infiltrate through all the surveillance networks.
but.
If you limit the scope to the ‘rooftop’, you will be able to neutralize the CCTV there.
And what if there is a way to get to the rooftop without being noticed?
You can break into the academy without being noticed.
okay.
With Joo Hyun-ah’s ability, everything is possible.
Strictly speaking, it was a copied ability, but once copied, it could be used permanently, so it was safe to say that it was Joo Hyun-ah’s ability.
anyway.
“Um, isn’t Joo Hyun-ah here?”
It seems that Joo Hyun-ah did not come with me.
It’s only natural that he’s a talented person whom Just cares about, but on the other hand, it was disappointing.
If I kill it in advance, I won’t miss the enemy like last time.
“you are······.”
I broke the window and saw Shin Min-seok.
I see a woman who is somehow familiar next to him.
I also saw a student in my class being murdered in the present progressive tense.
Nari Seo is nowhere to be seen.
where did you go
I was a little nervous, but calmed down quickly.
Kill them all and ask.
[ Syncing to the 5th life. ]
[ Synchronization rate – 20% ]
[Use the skill, ‘throw’. ]
I threw the previously summoned artifact, ‘Moonlight’.
It was in the form of a blade when attached to Nari Seo’s chain, but in fact, this artifact is a dagger.
Shuwook!
The dagger, which flew quickly, wanted to extend in a straight line, but twisted its path here and there.
It was not a meaningless move.
Because there was a villain in the path the dagger passed through.
“Keuheouk!!”
“Aagh!!
The dagger pierced through the villains one after another and returned to my hand.
The faces of the survivors were stained with astonishment.
“Those many A-ranks at once…”
It seems that all the dead people were A-class.
honestly it’s a coincidence
I didn’t even know they were class A.
[The skill, ‘Ambush’ is active. ]
[Ambush – Your surprise is sure to succeed. ]
It was only possible to kill them in one hit with the effect of the surprise skill.
It wasn’t exactly what I intended, but it was rather good.
Fear, once imprinted on it, is not easily changed.
Now that this has happened, I wanted to grab some weight.
[Use the skill, ‘Intimidation’. ]
The range is limited to villains.
[ Change the artifact. ]
[ Summon the Artifact, ‘Goodwill’. ]
The silver dagger disappeared, and a pendant was clutched in my hand.
star shape. In the center is a green gem.
Put it in the hand of the student who was stabbed in the stomach.
Then, the wound healed quickly.
This is the default option for ‘Goodwill’. It heals the wounds of the possessed target.
“Huh! Heo-eok…”
Soon, the girl’s breathing returned to normal.
“are you okay?”
The female student nodded her head, though bewildered.
I can’t see the trauma anymore, and it seems that I’ve become aware of the situation, so I retrieved the artifact and changed it back to moonlight.
I turned my head and looked at the villain.
“…”
I liked the web novel.
The world I possessed in the first place is also a web novel worldview.
Like that, I also had at least one romance.
For example······.
“……Yes, how many people have you killed so far?”
Is it such an ambassador?
“Lee, this cheeky baby!”
As if he didn’t like my cool lines, one of the villains rushed in.
Are there people everywhere who can’t grasp the atmosphere?
A sigh came out of my mouth.
[Use the skill, ‘throw’. ]
A villain running from the front.
In this case, the surprise attack does not work.
If the villain is A-class or higher, there is a possibility that I will be pushed.
However, now the number of enemies is high.
I must never look down on you.
so.
[ Activates the special option of the artifact, ‘Moonlight’. ]
This time, it must be finished in one blow.
Few.
A silver line was drawn in the air.
It was the trajectory of the moonlight.
All the villains that were near that trajectory.
Fush Shot!
fall and bleed
After a while, the moonlight returned to my hand.
I put on a relaxed expression.
[Use the skill, ‘bluff’. ]
“Are you going to hit me harder?”
Adding an appropriate bravado to it was the icing on the cake.
I laughed leisurely and counted the number of remaining villains.
About twenty-five, including the guys outside.
If the situation continued as it was, it seemed like it would be easy to win.
at that time.
“Everyone, go down!!”
Minseok Shin shouted.
“Leave Yoohyun Lee to this person.”
······this person?
“hi?”
A smirk and a quick wave of hands.
gag drama.
The nails barely blocked it with the moonlight, but the shock was hard to handle.
In the end, it is blown away without being able to hold on.
Quaang!
just stuck to the wall.
“Ugh…”
A-class movements can be handled well enough.
Moonlight’s basic options are ‘retrieval’ and ‘increase the wearer’s speed’.
The fact that I finally responded means that the opponent has surpassed the A-class category.
In other words, he is an S-class villain.
“······no wonder.”
I thought I knew why Shin Min-seok made that decision.
Apparently, he thought of my level as S-rank or higher.
I don’t think I’ll be able to win even if we all attack together, so he must have entrusted me to the strongest one.
The rest will serve other purposes.
Considering that the system’s clear condition was the protection of the entrusted student, it was clear that their ‘other purpose’ was to kill the entrusted student.
“Poop.”
I burst into a small laugh.
The entrusted students are guarded by Jang Ha-ra.
There is no need to worry about failing the quest because of the villains who just went down.
“I’m glad you didn’t come with me.”
While muttering that, I got out of the wall and checked the villain’s face.
It was the villain that I felt a strange sense of deja vu from earlier.
“you… … ?”
And, it wasn’t long before I realized the true nature of that feeling of deja vu.
“You seem to know me.”
I wasn’t used to it simply because I was a wanted man.
Because I didn’t even remember the villains before the original work.
however.
I haven’t forgotten about that villain.
No, I couldn’t forget.
“······Lee Gong Oh-chil.”
How can you forget
prison guard days.
It’s the prisoner who killed me.
[The second sub-quest occurs. ]
