Chapter Index

    XCVIII.

    There was something strange about the large room, which looked like a conference room and could easily be called a banquet hall.

    If you were to say that it was shabby or shabby, you could say the opposite. Various beautiful ornaments and luxury items were decorated everywhere. Competitively.

    The sight of over-the-top luxury goods scattered around without any context or theme that runs through the whole thing made me feel like I was trapped in a narrow room covered in bright fluorescent paint.

    In this room filled with gold, mithril, and all kinds of jewels, a being whose beauty could not be described by human standards was sitting on a gold chair decorated with jewels.

    “Failed?”

    “That’s right? You know? That Turi guy has been a bit pretentious since long ago.”

    A woman sitting on a chair sparkling with gold pushed her red hair, reminiscent of a burning flame, over her ear and tapped the armrest of the chair with her other hand.

    The man in front of him was also ‘handsome.’ Or, he was a handsome man, as if drawn in a way that cannot be described by the word ‘handsome’.

    “That’s right, but it’s still a Turi that was outstanding in our generation. A guy like that failed to deal with three of the least decent humans among humans? And that too by taking the four kites who follow him? Does this make sense now? S?”

    “Well, that bastard was a bit arrogant, but… . This is a bit unexpected, right? We also captured an ancient dragon. So what do you think? Nitas?”

    S and Nitas.

    Their original names were Glachies and Ignistas.

    Silver and red dragons.

    You may have guessed it, but of course these are fallen dragons. Of course, you know Nitas, the corrupted and immoral dragon, and Silver Dragon Es is the same silver dragon as Turi, the idiotic Silver Dragon who always said he would become a Dragon Lord in the future.

    He too was corrupted, but the reason for his corruption was due to Nithas rather than following Turi.

    Turi was an annoying person to him. From the beginning, Es evaluated himself as superior to Turi in all aspects.

    But was origin important in dragon society? Turi’s parents were more ancient dragons and stronger than S’s parents.

    So I thought Turi was more recognized by the Silver clan than S.

    It was natural for Es to become friends with Nitas, who she hated, clashing with Turi at every turn.

    After hearing the news that Nitas had changed his mind, Es willingly joined because he was still looking for a way to contact Nitas.

    “The intervention of the gods?”

    “No. at all. It was handled entirely by human power.”

    “What?! This doesn’t make sense! Those idiots were called idiots and assholes to us, but they were still dragon idiots. Above all, because he accepted demon energy, he was able to transform into a demonic beast if necessary. But everyone died?”

    “Hmm… … . It would be nice if we could look into the memories of the earth.”

    The moment they fell, all communication with the spirits they had been connected to was lost. It’s natural. Spirits are the opposite of those who are polluted.

    It’s not that there aren’t magics with similar effects, but magic corresponding to the four major attributes also couldn’t be used on fallen dragons.

    Because the attribute power, which is like a part of nature, does not react. Instead, I thought it would be beneficial to learn the excellent and ancient magic of the Demon World. Except when it’s inconvenient like now.

    “I can’t help it. I have no choice but to ask them.”

    “Tsk.”

    Nitas clicked his tongue and expressed his dissatisfaction with Es’s words, but he also knew that what she said was not wrong. Even though Nitas didn’t do anything, a black crow appeared and sat proudly in front of Nitas and Es.

    -What’s going on?

    “The operation to eliminate superhumans failed from the beginning. This side lost five dragons.”

    -Tsk. I can’t believe I finally figured it out. What a disappointment.

    “Sorry, sorry.”

    The usual arrogant Nitas was embarrassed and frightened by the sound of clicking his tongue, so he lowered his head in a panic.

    It’s been a long time since I got down from the golden chair I was sitting on in an arrogant posture and knelt on the floor. Nitas was like this, but Es, who was weaker than her, was already hitting her head on the floor.

    -Five dragons went to attack the superman.

    “Yes.”

    -I failed. At first, the five of us set out because we thought the superhumans would be scattered, but the three of us gathered together.

    “Well, even so, what can three superhumans do with five dragons…? … .”

    -Because it didn’t end there. The superhumans somehow knew that they were going to be attacked. I thought there might be a spy inside… .

    “Oh, no!”

    “That can’t be possible!”

    Nitas and Es simultaneously uttered a hasty denial.

    -My words are not over yet!

    “Sorry, sorry!”

    “So, I’m sorry!”

    -I think so too. In the first place, our system is such that there can be no such thing as a spy. That probably means that they have discovered our plan. And it looks amazing.

    “Grey. Must be that son of a bitch.”

    -okay. I guess so. They actually showed up, and we even saw Gray and his bitches kill a silver dragon.

    “Candidate… Are you talking about a dragon?!”

    -okay. Strictly speaking, the women who follow him are strong, but there are rumors that his spear skills are also quite good. Let’s investigate that part a little more clearly. Why do those women follow him? And see if appeasement is possible.

    “Okay.”

    Nitas thought appeasement might be possible. Honestly, didn’t S, who was bowing his head in front of me, look much better than Gray?

    “I… … . I think I can persuade about two superhumans.”

    Nitas couldn’t just watch as that being’s trust in him disappeared. She unlocked the last piece of information she could use, one that she had saved until the very last moment.

    -Who is it?

    However, the owner’s answer on his return was insignificant. Nitas bit his lip and spoke as if spitting out the object.

    “Juan, this is Dean Juan and Vice Dean Fletcher of Evergreen Academy.”

    ◈ ◈ ◈

    As soon as Dean Hu heard the news, he immediately rushed over. The term “running” here is not a metaphor or metaphor; it literally means “running.”

    “Whoo, whoo… . Phew… . Is this really true?”

    I was afraid that there might be some problem in the aftermath of the space movement magic.

    The highest point of Evergreen Academy. Dean Hu’s son, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter Catherine were lying in a secret room where most students and even professors did not know what they were doing.

    When I first entered Evergreen Academy, the reason why I couldn’t help but feel that the clown was ‘hiding’ was the same reason why Dean Hu was angry when the candidate competency evaluation took place and the wizards of the Tower of Magic muttered their magic.

    This was because I was worried that the magic that had been superimposed here as a result of the high circle magic, and that even Dean Hu could not touch it now, would be affected.

    Then the news came to the dean that his son and wife and granddaughter had woken up.

    “Really?! Really? Really?”

    It was something that was only possible in a dream.

    “Yes. More than that, it is said to remove all the magic entangled in this place. Do you agree?”

    “Huh? Well, that’s… … .”

    The dean was embarrassed and could not easily tell him to do so.

    I learned that there was a Circle 9 woman at the highest level of Circle 9, and even among other superhumans, but even she could not do anything to Dean Hu.

    He behaved politely in everything as if he was dealing with a long-time senior, but at the same time, he found it difficult.

    Then, this is a space so tangled that even the dean himself cannot figure out where to start.

    Because it is my son and his family, they poured out good things and helpful things without restraint, and now it is a space that not even they can handle.

    “It’s beyond my abilities.”

    “I heard so. Didn’t I tell you? It is said to ‘dispel’ the spell. Of course, I am not asking you to do anything.”

    “Uh? Huh?”

    “Tiger.”

    “Yes. let’s begin. High Link—Dispel.”

    Looking at the dean’s expression of confusion, it clearly seems like it’s magic he doesn’t know about. Even though it was the moment when she could meet her son’s family, her eyes were wide and she was surprised.

    The magic of the long magic starter word and the long name is revealed, and like peeling off several layers of plastic wrap, the energy surrounding this unique and special space stands and fades.

    While letting out rustling sounds one after another.

    “Finished.”

    It ended so easily.

    This was magic that Dean Hu could not even touch.

    “And since their condition is very bad right now, I’m thinking of using healing magic. Do you agree?”

    Yes.

    In fact, it certainly could have been handled before, but as mentioned before, since it was a space where magic overlapped, it was best for Dean Hu to come in and out as well.

    Even if healing magic was activated in that space and treatment was performed, I was afraid that there might be another tangle, so I had not treated it yet.

    The son, Uncle Josef, had a neck injury, the daughter-in-law, Aunt Poppy, had her face melted and looked extremely disfigured, and the granddaughter, Catherine, was as well.

    “Chi, treatment? Oh, Rod?”

    “Yes.”

    “I agree. Don’t do it!”

    “Then please. Two horns.”

    Tukhung twisted his body at the request, but quickly changed his attitude and looked serious as if he was facing a life-or-death enemy, ready to unleash his magic.

    what? Is it difficult? When I asked you a little while ago, you said it was as easy as applying red medicine to a slightly cut finger.

    “Absolute Recovery.”

    How should I describe the sight of green light, not pure white, starting from the two palms of the turtle and seeping into the family of three?

    okay. It felt like turning back time.

    The sight of wounds disappearing, new skin growing, melting, ugly skin coming off, and child-like skin sprouting.

    “The external and internal injuries were treated, but the psychological shock… … .”

    “Yes. That would have been good for our witch and May.”

    “Ah, yes.”

    When Twohorn mentioned the witch and May, he understood and nodded.

    Maybe it would have been better if Dean Hu had been mentioned? I would never back down. To us, Dean Hu’s trustworthiness is exactly that level.

    After using clean magic to erase the traces of the wounds that had fallen under the bed, like a snake shedding its skin, the wait for Dean and us began.

    And Catherine, the youngest granddaughter, was the first to wake up.

    “Oh, oh… … . My Kitat!”

    Afterwards, the dean was moved and staggered towards Catherine. Granddaughter Catherine also had tears in her eyes as she looked at Dean Hu.

    It was a touching moment of reunion between grandfather and granddaughter.

    Was Catherine looking at Dean Hu with tears in her eyes? After seeing those eyes, tears start to form in the Dean’s eyes as well.

    Catherine got up from the bed and her feet were bare on the floor. His feet meet the floor and he walks slowly, making a clicking sound.

    He stumbled for a moment during his first steps, but quickly regained his balance and took steps slowly but without hesitation, leaving everyone watching with pride.

    After seeing Catherine and her granddaughter, who arrived in front of the dean, the dean’s touching meeting was,

    “Oppa… ?”

    “What?!”

    It had to be postponed for a long time.

    Because Catherine passed the dean and approached me, who was standing behind him.

    Everyone thought that Catherine was looking at Dean Hu with tears in her eyes, but it seemed like she was looking at me through Dean Hu’s short stature, which she insisted was average for a man.

    “It’s my brother! Gray oppa!”

    That cry became a confirmed kill and plunged a dagger into Dean Hu’s chest. okay. It definitely seemed like it had been plugged in twice.

    “I missed you. Oppa.”

    Was it three times?

    Now that I see it, Catering is a little taller than Lina and definitely shorter than May.

    Wearing pure white pajamas, hugging my waist tightly, eyes looking up. Those eyes contained tears hanging down, relief for something, and, unexpectedly, anxiety.

    “Oppa… … .”

    “Oh? Ah, I was waiting. Catherine.”

    “Hee hee. Yes, yes!”

    As I carefully stroked her head like I saw in the video, Catherine showed a child’s typical smile and held onto my waist again.

    As if he would never miss it.

    “Key, KitKat… … . Pfft! Damn Gray guy!”

    The loser crying from behind… No, I just had to feel embarrassed by my grandfather’s voice.

    “Catherine? Should I say hello to my grandfather?”

    “Wow? Hal… Buzzy?”

    “Yes. Over there.”

    “Wow! Grandpa!!”

    “Yeah, right! Kit Kat! Hey, come here!”

    The Dean opened his arms wide. He must have been expecting his granddaughter to jump into his arms and twitch.

    “Hello!”

    However, Catherine held my waist with one hand, or more precisely, my coat, and waved her hand with a bright face towards the dean.

    At this point, should I say four or five times? This is the number of times a dagger was struck in Dean Hu’s chest.

    this child.

    There is a crueler side to it than you might think.

    Dean Hu became even more frustrated, and it was a sight that my group, including myself, couldn’t help but laugh at.

    The witch was even holding a video storage crystal ball, no matter where she got it. From the beginning until now.

    “This is Catherine May. Do you remember?”

    “Woong? wow! It’s May!!”

    Katherine raised her arms when she saw May (shouting “Wow!”), then grabbed my pants with her small, wiggly little hands and stretched out her other arm to hold May’s hand.

    As if he was showing his will to never let go of one of his hands.

    And as soon as they greeted the clown, the witch, and the Punisher one by one, and even introduced the Two Horns, Uncle Joseph and Aunt Poppy came to their senses almost at the same time, thinking that they were a married couple.

    As soon as the couple woke up, they looked for Catherine, found me holding Catherine, and quickly approached me.

    “Uh-huh! gray! I saw it in my dream and I see it here too. Is this a dream too?”

    “Oh my. gray? Is it really gray?”

    Let’s just pretend we didn’t see each other for a moment as we passed by the Dean. Still, it’s because he has the prestige and social status of a Circle 9. Let’s keep it a secret only between us.

    At this point, there’s no need for us to come forward and confirm with the facts and even kill them!

    I’m not that cruel.

    Anyway, to the extent that people who don’t know me would think of me as part of their family, Catherine’s family – now called Catherine’s family, not the family of the later dean’s son – never seemed to be able to separate from me.

    There was so much to say about the story that even I, who had watched the entire video, couldn’t easily follow it, so all I could do was smile and nod.

    Still not bad. I was an orphan at birth and have never had a family since, so the warmth of this busy family was a bit surprising and a bit nostalgic.

    Because it was a different feeling from what I felt from the Arcana. But that atmosphere did not last long.

    “Yay! You bad guys!!”

    Because the old grandfather’s ugly jealousy had begun.

    “Huh? Father?”

    “Oh my! Father?”

    The two couples, Josef and Poppy, were surprised to recognize Dean Hu.

    “How long have you been there?”

    “If you are there, please make an appearance. Please keep joking. Father.”

    And I just ignored it. Arcana everywhere was giggling and had a hard time holding back their laughter.

    “I hate you guys!!”

    “Grandpa~.”

    In response to Dean Hu’s shout, showing his true feelings, Catherine still clinging to my leg, trailing off her words, cutely called Dean Hu.

    Later, when the dean looked at Catherine with sparkling eyes with a glimmer of anticipation,

    “It’s noisy.”

    The dean’s remaining expectations were shattered. Children are unnecessarily honest.

    Perhaps the origins of factual assault are children.

    So, how many confirmed kills… … .

    Let’s just say that counting is now a hassle.

    In any case, Dean Hu’s long-held dream of meeting his family and having a tearful reunion certainly came true. A little bit towards the way.
