Park near the main building. I sat on a bench with Solli and listened to an explanation about the student ID card.

“Student ID is a magic tool used throughout the academy.

There are many functions such as course registration, timetable confirmation, maps, notices, club activities, personal messages, etc. Please note that this is only possible within Academy City. You can’t send messages from outside the city to people inside.”

“Wouldn’t it be too dangerous if it were lost?”

“If you register mana, only that person can use it.”

The student ID card is a square-shaped plate with your name, photo, department, and professor’s name written on it. If you press the academy emblem at the bottom right of your student ID, a screen will appear in the air, allowing you to handle other tasks.

“This method of use should be fine. Next is course registration, but you can apply late for courses that are affected by the aptitude test.”

“Are there any other lectures you recommend?”

“Well, it would be good to listen to the lecture on combat against black magic. Because the fortress and remnants of the empire were often seen, it became popular. And, basic ministries are also popular. Learn how to tame familiars that are more helpful in real life than in battle.”

“How many lectures do I have to take?”

“You can think of it as an average of 6. As long as the times do not overlap, you can fill the entire timetable. Of course, first-year students must apply for ether theory, and Perrin must also apply for ether practical lectures.”

It was time for the senior to explain. Tension has increased. I’ve felt it since morning, but it seems like he likes explaining things. There was also an education topic in the lecture. Did you apply?

I took advice from my senior and signed up for 7 lectures.

Close combat.

Crowd control.

Great black magic battle.

Basic ministry.

Black magic theory.

Ether theory.

Ether practice.

“Senior, it’s all over.”

“Then, shall we start exploring the academy now? Is there a place you want?”

“First, I want to go to the building where the lecture is held.”

“I understand. Just follow me.”

This time, the senior took the lead and started walking. It was to the point where I doubted whether it was the person who had been shaking with fear just a moment ago.

‘Is this his original personality? ‘How have you held on until now?’

[Fallen One]

A modifier that has been attached to me since I was young. A word that has been called more times than a name, and has colored my life in a dark way.

I made a devil contract. No, if I want to explain why this happened, I have to explain my family first.

My father is a necromancer from the imperial nobility.

The family my father was born into is one that has produced excellent necromancers for a long time. Both my father’s grandfather and father made a name for themselves as skilled necromancers. My father also underwent rigorous training from a young age and became a necromancer.

However, when my father turned 20, the Allied Forces put pressure on the Empire through the power of Aether. As it became apparent that the empire was collapsing, the upper echelons of the empire decided to fight back by using gold magic.

Gold alcohol.

Safety is not guaranteed even in the imperial magic, which is still called black magic, so only methods have been passed down.

Magic that opens the door to the other world.

A magic that creates chimeras by sacrificing humans.

Magic that reverses the ecosystem.

A magic that increases body density using the bodies of killed humans.

And, the magic of making a contract with the devil.

Devil contract.

A golden drink passed down from my father’s family.

Unlike existing devil contracts where you offer a sacrifice to the devil or visit him directly. This was because Geumsul could summon the desired demon and sacrifice the future rather than the present.

When Dad learned of this, he ran out of the family and headed to the Allied Forces, and was guaranteed safety by providing the information that the Empire was preparing gold magic and his own knowledge as collateral.

After confirming that Dad’s words were true, the Allied Forces quickly assembled an army and were able to stop most of the Geumsul. At this time, Dad’s family was suppressed at the beginning and the devil did not appear in the war.

After that, my father became an elf woman. I met my mother, got married, and gave birth to me.

Dad that day. I could see that a devil contract had been made.

The daughter’s hair was stained with an all-defying darkness, the white of her left eye was stained black, and the pupil was red.

The next day, my father notified my mother of the divorce and left home. He said he was not at fault and that it was all his mother’s fault.

My mother, who had no one to rely on, took me with her and returned home. However, even the family did not accept the daughter who gave birth to a corrupter. My mother was also excommunicated from home.

Since the story of my mother’s excommunication and giving birth to a daughter who was a degenerate spread, she was unable to live in the city and took me with her to live deep in the mountains.

“Mom. Why can’t I go outside?”

“It’s because it’s dangerous outside.”

“But, mom goes out.”

“Mom is an adult. When Solly grows up, I will let him go outside.”

“I understand! I’ll become an adult quickly!”

“Thank you for listening to my Solly mom.”

I lived in a cabin in the woods with my mother. My mother never let me out of the house, and she went to get food by herself every day. Even when I asked him about his eyes and hair, he only told me that he looked like his father.

Then one day. I heard a voice in my head.

-Hello, kid.

“nu. Who are you?”

-I am the devil. The devil in your body.

“Devil?”

What is the devil? Rather, why are you in my body? Among the things my mother taught me, there was no mention of the word devil.

-okay. A very evil and scary being.

“I didn’t do anything wrong. I haven’t done anything bad.”

-no. you are wrong As proof, one eye is different and the hair is also black.

“Lie! This is because I take after my father. Mom told me!”

-Hehe

When I shouted, the devil laughed at me.

-Then why don’t they let me out?

“They’re so dignified that they won’t let you out. They said they would let me out when I grow up.”

-Is it really dangerous? Think about it carefully. How many times has your mom come home hurt?

Has your mom ever come back hurt?

… It wasn’t that long ago that my mother came back because she was injured. The end result was a small wound.

-Have you ever heard a scream outside? Has your house ever broken down? Isn’t it strange that the house is fine?

The more I heard the devil’s voice, the more I wondered if it was really dangerous out there. You can check it by opening that door and going outside. Mom has never been hurt before. It will be fine.

-Let’s go out for a little while.

-are you okay. If it’s dangerous, I’ll protect you.

I believed the devil and opened the door.

When I opened the door, I saw green grass and a dense forest. I heard birds chirping, and insects sat gently on the flowers.

“Liar. Mom is a liar.”

-okay. Mom is a liar. Liars must be punished.

“How can I punish him?”

-Let’s hide outside. Mom would have been looking for you, and that was her punishment.

I followed the devil’s words and ran into the forest. I looked at the outside scenery for the first time and was surprised by insects. What was the animal afraid of? When it saw me, it pulled out its tail and ran away.

“It’s hard.”

-There is a cave ahead. Let’s rest over there.

On my first outing, my stamina quickly ran out. In the end, as the devil said, I decided to rest in the cave ahead.

“Huh? Here’s a blanket. Who lives there?”

-That can’t be possible. It’s just that someone took a break.

“If I use it however I want, won’t I get scolded?”

-It’s obviously something left for the next person. Have I ever lied?

Has the devil ever lied?

does not exist.

I just lay down on the blanket and fell asleep.

I didn’t even know that this was a bandit’s hideout.

.

-Is there a little boy in the large intestine?

-I think it’s an elf, but its hair is black.

-It appears if you make a contract with the devil.

-Let’s kill the captain quickly.

-hang on. I heard there’s a perverted noble who wants a corrupter these days. They say they buy it at a high price.

-But, wouldn’t it be dangerous for us?

-Anyway, kid. And, a magic seal bracelet. I have one for you. Use that.

-Isn’t that expensive? Just for a kid.

-Hey. It’s more expensive than most adults.

-All right. Leader.

“Ugh.”

I opened my eyes to a sudden shock. Three men were looking at me. I was scared and tried to run away, but my arms and legs were tied and I couldn’t move.

“Who are you..?”

“Hey. Isn’t it better to cover your mouth too?”

“I think that would be good. Captain.”

“Hey, get the rope quickly.”

“Okay.”

The men ignored me and talked amongst themselves.

“Can’t you hear..? Who are you?”

“I brought it.”

“Don’t report it, tie it up quickly!”

As the man called the boss shouted, another person approached me and wrapped a rope around my mouth.

“Ugh. Wow”

“Is it this safe?”

“Looking at your reaction just now, you’re a kid who doesn’t know anything. You don’t even know what’s happening to you.”

I instinctively felt that I was in danger due to the men’s evil laughter, so I asked the devil for help.

“Ugh. Ugh!”

-what? I can’t hear you very well?

“Ugh! Ugh!”

-Speak. If you say it like that, you won’t be able to understand it.

The devil ignored my words. It was definitely a dangerous situation, but the devil did not help me.

‘As expected, it was dangerous out there. ‘Mom, I’m sorry.’

-puck

“Gagging..”

“The little boy is so loud. Shut your mouth.”

“Captain. Then, I will catch one kid.”

“Can I hit you just once?”

Stomach pain.

It was my first time being kicked and it hurt so much.

‘Mom, it hurts. Help me!’

-deeply

The man who was trying to hit me fell to the floor. There was an arrow stuck in the man’s head. I stopped screaming at the murder that happened right in front of my eyes.

“Ugh!! Awesome!”

And, the line was pushed out little by little, and my mouth became a little freer.

“Um..yeah…Mom..ma!”

“Soliya!”

Mom appeared at the cave entrance like a hero.
