Chapter Index

    The next morning.

    Yum Yum.

    Liliana ate coffee beans while watching TV.

    I already ate all the chocolate that Ho-yeon Lee brought as a gift from France, and this was a snack that Da-hee Nam bought secretly.

    Since I had to share it with Nam Da-hee if I caught her, I only ate it when she was playing with Da-eun.

    “Sister Liliana! I want to eat coffee peanuts too!”

    “Damn it, I got caught! Run!”

    “What about coffee peanuts… I told you to share some with Dahee.”

    Hoyeon Lee sighed as he watched Liliana run away.

    Seeing them running around makes me feel like all my energy is drained.

    I can’t imagine at all that there’s Liliana Calliope in there who made hell tremble.

    “Rebecca. Is it okay if I turn on the news?”

    “That much is up to you, baby daddy.”

    Instead of the entertainment show Liliana was watching, she turned on the news.

    [The mysterious island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean is expanding its area at an incredible rate. Among them, strange creatures with wings attack drones that come close… .]

    Of course, the world went into chaos again in one day.

    This is because the Iris Guild disclosed all information about the Gates of Hell.

    The Gates of Hell that appeared in the middle of the Pacific Ocean gradually expanded its territory.

    The sea was stained with darkness and turned into a solid island, and on that island the monsters of hell settled down.

    Unlike other abnormal phenomena, they actually struck humans.

    So far, it’s only at the level of shooting down flying objects that come close, but once the Earth is identified, all those with wings will fly to the continent. Among them, there will be one with another monster attached to it.

    I don’t need to explain what will happen when an increasingly wide island covers the Pacific Ocean and touches continents.

    [Can’t we blockade the area around the island?]

    [It is impossible. Because it is in the middle of the ocean, it is difficult to deploy troops, and the island of darkness is increasing in size at an alarming rate.]

    [What about experts? What on earth are they doing at a time like this? .]

    There is no particularly nutritious information.

    It was all information that Lee Ho-yeon would know.

    ‘Is it strange to expect information when we haven’t even been properly attacked yet?’

    Hoyeon Lee leaned his head on Rebecca’s shoulder while watching the fighting panels.

    Seeing her caught somehow makes me feel at peace.

    “Rebecca, let’s take special training in the magic of hell with me. As I said yesterday, there are too many black pillars in this world that need to be destroyed.”

    “You mean the one you do with Wizard Imsol…? Uhm. I don’t know. Can I help you?”

    “With Lee Ho-yeon’s special training, you will adapt quickly. Don’t worry.”

    “If that’s the baby’s father, then it’ll be okay. Okay, I’ll try.”

    The Gates of Hell have already appeared, but that doesn’t mean the Black Pillar isn’t important.

    Rather, you have to work harder to destroy it.

    The Black Pillar is also a structure that accelerates the assimilation of Earth and Hell.

    The problem is that there are too many black pillars for Lee Ho-yeon to destroy alone.

    Even if Rebecca and Lim Sol move around together and work as much as Ho-yeon Lee, the work will be twice as fast.

    ‘Actually, it’s best for Rebecca and Sol to go separately… .’

    The problem is Rebecca and Imsol’s safety.

    There is a way to attach the Iris Guild, but Lee Ho-yeon wanted to leave the work related to the Black Pillar to people he could really trust.

    Moreover, it takes a long time for them to learn the magic of hell.

    Even if a fight breaks out next to the black pillar, you cannot provide support.

    ‘A person who is talented and skilled enough to master the magic of hell, someone I can trust, and someone I can constantly check to see if he has been brainwashed… .’

    Just when I was about to lose my mind, a teacup appeared in front of me.

    When I turned my head, there was Nam Da-eun with a faint smile.

    “Hoyeon. Have a cup of tea.”

    “Thank you Da-eun.”

    I brought the teacup Nam Da-eun gave me to my mouth.

    I feel like warm black tea relieves tension in my body.

    “As expected, Da-eun… huh?”

    Ho-yeon Lee raised her head and made eye contact with Da-eun Nam.

    When Nam Da-eun suddenly looked at him intently, he tilted his head.

    “what’s the matter?”

    “It was here.”

    People who are highly skilled and whom Lee Ho-yeon trusts and can constantly check to see if they have been brainwashed.

    There were many such women around Lee Ho-yeon.

    *

    “Did I exercise too much in the morning?”

    Hoyeon Lee yawned and stretched.

    After smashing the black pillar 30 minutes away from the academy in the morning, I felt hot.

    Jerk. Jerk.

    Hoyeon Lee walked around the Academy grounds for the first time in a long time.

    When we left for France, there were many buildings in bad condition, but now the aftermath of Lucifer’s attack was hard to find.

    ‘Is the academy about to restart soon?’

    It’s really bad timing that the gates of hell are opening right after the restoration is complete.

    If this continues, won’t I be able to graduate?

    At that time, I was walking around looking around with a dull feeling.

    “Ihoyeoeoeon!”

    “Hoenn sir…!”

    The twins who ran from the side hugged Lee Ho-yeon.

    When he saw Lucy and Rumi for the first time in a while, the corners of Lee Ho-yeon’s mouth automatically went up.

    “How are you both?”

    “Why did you come so late? Ugh.”

    “I’m sorry. I have a lot of work to do. But I came to see you first, so please look after me.”

    “…But it’s not a date.”

    As Lucy said, today was not a date, but a trip to see Lim Sol.

    Ho-yeon Lee wanted to have a leisurely date, but he had a lot of work to do.

    “After seeing the professor, we can go get something to eat.”

    “Really? Then let’s eat cake.”

    “Mr. Hoyeon… you don’t have to overdo it….”

    “It’s not a problem, so don’t worry. Let’s go see the professor first.”

    Hoyeon Lee laughed, rubbing Rumi’s cheek with her finger.

    I had a favor to ask Imsol about the black pillar, and I was planning on taking the twins to receive some magic education.

    ‘Because it would be good if Lucy and Rumi became stronger as well.’

    Lee Ho-yeon’s heroines are all stronger than in the original.

    Ellis, who overcame a congenital magical power disability, Moon Su-rin, who overcame the stalking trauma, Im Sol, who overcame her limits, and Nam Da-eun, who left the Buyer’s Guild early.

    Lucy and Rumi also learned magic from Hoyeon Lee and became stronger… It still feels a bit lacking.

    The inside of the Magic Hall was strangely quiet.

    Since the academy is closed, it seems that many professors do not come to work.

    Does not matter. Imsol will be on the second floor anyway.

    Ding dong-

    Hoyeon Lee took the elevator with the twins and went up to the second floor.

    An intense magical power that is felt as soon as one enters Imsol’s laboratory.

    Boom! Bang!

    A lab that resonates loudly.

    Lucy and Rumi looked around in confusion, but Hoyeon Lee smiled familiarly.

    “This is how it is. Let’s go towards the training room.”

    If Lim Sol’s lab is quiet, he’s conducting an experiment, and if it’s noisy, he’s training.

    After walking a bit, I saw the training room.

    “wow….”

    “Ho, Mr. Hoyeon. Over there, Professor Lim Sol is there.”

    Lucy and Rumi cling to the glass that illuminates the inside.

    Inside the training room, Imsol’s magic was exploding.

    A column of fiery heat soared high into the sky, and lightning struck the ground, scattering debris in all directions.

    A huge wave from afar hit Imsol, and a dazzling flash of light fell from the sky.

    ‘It’s a curriculum exclusively for Imsol.’

    Why are you fighting natural disasters alone?

    How surprised others would be when they see it.

    In fact, Lucy and Rumi were also trembling with their mouths open.

    ‘You’re always the same every time I come.’

    After comforting Lucy and Rumi, Hoyeon Lee entered the training room and waved.

    “Professor Lim Sol!”

    A welcome voice that breaks the concentration of training.

    Imsol shook off his sweaty head and turned his head.

    Since it was my first time seeing Lee Ho-yeon in a long time, I was planning to stop training.

    “Our student has finally arrived…?”

    Imsol tilted his head when he saw Lucy and Rumi standing behind his student.

    *

    A flame arrow floats above Lucy’s head as she closes her eyes.

    Hundreds of arrows moved like flowing water and swam in the air under Lucy’s hand.

    Hoyeon Lee smiled at Lucy’s growth.

    The heat and energy contained in the arrow seemed strong enough to require great care to block.

    But my professor doesn’t seem to think so.

    “Cadet Lucy. Focus on what you’re good at. Burn more fiercely and control your power clearly. Your arrows are wasting energy needlessly.”

    “Oh, I understand.”

    “The same goes for Cadet Rumi. I learned the core techniques well from Hoyeon, but it’s still not enough. If the opponent was Lucifer, I wouldn’t have been able to block it with that much of a shield.”

    “… Yes, four.”

    Although the class is difficult, I think I can overcome this.

    Lucy and Rumi’s talents point to much greater heights.

    The gates of hell opened faster than in the original, but if they properly absorb Lee Ho-yeon and Im Sol’s teachings, they can do one serving.

    “Good. It’s much more stable than before. This time, I’ll try the training system. It’s what I usually use when training, but since it’s level 1, you should be able to do it well.”

    Imsol manipulated the training room’s system and implemented [Imsol Special Curriculum No. 1].

    Lucy and Rumi’s talent was definitely enormous.

    It’s lower than Lee Ho-yeon, but compared to the old people who whined at the Wizards’ Association, the difference is like that of a whale and an anchovy.

    As a teacher and a colleague who fought against Lucifer, I can teach you this much.

    [Execute Imsol’s special curriculum number 1.]

    “Remember that you are stronger when you are together. The pain level will remain the same, so be careful.’

    “Ugh… Rumi!”

    “Uh, yes. We should be together.”

    Lucy and Rumi immediately clung to each other and created magic.

    The twins, who each specialize in attack and defense, became stronger when combined.

    ‘Of course, it doesn’t have to be that tight… ‘I’ll take care of it.’

    Hoyeon Lee got up from her seat as she saw Imsol coming towards her.

    “As expected, you’re a professor. You teach much better than me.”

    “Yes. But, Cadet Hoyeon Lee?”

    “Huh? Huh?!”

    dump-

    I was momentarily surprised by the awkward title of Cadet Hoyeon Lee.

    Lee Ho-yeon, who was pushed by Im Sol, collapsed on the sofa.

    As I blinked at the sudden situation, Imsol spoke first.

    “You came to see Master for the first time in two weeks, and you brought two different women with you.”

    “Professor. No. Sol. I definitely told you to bring Lucy and Rumi before….”

    “….”

    “I’m sure they’ll bring me back as soon as work is over….”

    “….”

    “Yes. I’m sorry.”

    Hoyeon Lee lowered his head.

    When he saw Imsol’s eyes staring at him, an apple automatically popped out.

    It was a little unfair. Obviously, I had decided to bring Lucy and Rumi after I was done with the Iris Guild.

    ‘still… It’s true that I didn’t pay attention.’

    Honestly, it’s not that I didn’t want to see Lucy, Rumi, and Imsol at the same time.

    Because we are so busy, we don’t have time to deal with the gates of hell if we visit each person one by one.

    I thought people would overlook Im Sol because he always has a cool image.

    Not this time.

    “I’m sorry, Sol. Oh, that’s right. Should I give you the gift I brought you from France?”

    I bought a special magic puzzle for Im Sol.

    Puzzles with meaningless, rule-free magical patterns are a luxury item that will take you more than 5 minutes.

    However, if you solve the puzzle, it turns into a pretty snowy cube, so Imsol will also like it… .

    “Take it off.”

    “… yes?”

    Lee Ho-yeon was astonished, as if he had committed a crime.

    I was scared today of Imsol coming towards me.

    “My student, I told you to take off your pants.”

    “…Lucy and Rumi are behind us.”

    “It’s okay because I’m concentrating on my training. If I hit your barrier lightly, I won’t be able to recognize it.”

    “No, if I hit the barrier, no, just a moment.”

    Without even waiting for Hoyeon Lee’s answer.

    Im Sol placed his hand on Lee Ho-yeon’s thigh.
