Subscriber of the Gods Episode 64
Episode 64. The New First Order
“Fuck.”
Mason spat out a curse.
He kept swearing. He was so excited that he couldn’t control his emotions.
His subordinates, who had confirmed his condition, ran to Mason.
“Mason!”
“Did that damn teacher pick a fight with you?”
“How dare that insolent brat. I’ll go and complain, Mason.”
“Shut up, I said shut up!”
Mason shouted and glared at his men. They all backed away, intimidated by Mason’s harsh words.
His condition was different than usual. Mason, who usually controlled his anger coolly, was now furious.
Born as the third son of a duke, he has been compared to his two older brothers ever since he was old enough to hold a sword.
Mason, who had inherited the ducal blood strongly, showed much greater talent than his two older brothers.
But that was only for a short while, as I tasted success too quickly and ended up falling into the despair of failure.
I struggled and tried to get out somehow, but it was difficult.
The two older brothers constantly teased Mason’s mentality, perhaps because they were annoyed by their youngest brother who grew up much faster than them.
His father also looked at Mason with a cold gaze, as if his talent was already showing its limits.
That was the end of it.
Mason ran away from the Duke’s family, got accepted to Ibeka Academy, and lived like a self-righteous scoundrel.
I tried to relieve stress at the academy, but the more I messed up, the more empty and angry I became.
The students don’t know that although they are being praised as the children of the Duke, the power struggle is actually over.
“The swordsmanship department came in second place because of me?”
It wasn’t a word to slap Mason.
Rather, it was a statement that highly praised Mason’s possibilities and potential.
It’s already been three years since I started attending the academy.
Many teachers have resigned due to pressure or concern over their own feelings due to the bullying that started from the first grade.
The remaining teachers deliberately avoided and ignored Mason.
Otherwise we’ll get into trouble with Mason.
The same was true of Claude Hyde.
At first, he reached out to Mason, but after learning about his position at the Academy, he withdrew his hand and treated him indifferently.
And it was a look that knew so well.
give up.
It was the look I felt from my father.
Even if you try, it won’t work. Even if you try, it’ll be useless.
It was the kind of look he gave himself when he saw the limits of his talent.
But Ethan was different.
Claude Hyde said that the reason he couldn’t raise his level in swordsmanship was because he abandoned himself.
And he said he wouldn’t repeat that mistake.
“You need me.”
I’ve never heard anything like that before.
Because he was born as a candidate for the successor to the Duke’s family, he had to be a leader who needed others, not someone who was needed by others.
“under.”
I was clearly being ignored, but I couldn’t figure out why my heart was pounding so hard.
I was confused for a moment, but I soon pulled myself together.
“Okay, let’s try. Let’s see if you can teach me well!”
If you take a proper class, I’ll tell you everything about Ethan Wickers.
* * *
“I think you understand by now.”
Ethan smiled happily.
If I tell you this much, you probably won’t miss class again.
Perhaps, a sense of anticipation was rising in your heart.
‘Because if the swordsmanship department wants to become number one, they need Mason.’
Even if we don’t know his current abilities, there is no student with as much potential as Mason.
Of course, there were other outstanding talents among those that Ethan knew, but they were not old enough to attend the Academy at this point. They were much younger.
So, with the current power available, there was no one as talented as Mason to make the swordsmanship department the best.
‘If I produce the best student in the swordsmanship department, my reputation will rise.’
You can also achieve multiple achievements.
‘Besides, if a student I taught gets first place, I get another achievement.’
It was said that in the process of raising your swordsmanship to the highest level, you could gain fame and even likes.
“I don’t think anyone else will come. I should go to the teachers’ office first.”
Ethan went to the teachers’ office to find the First Order. The first thing he suspected was, of course, the teachers.
It was likely that he was naturally working among the teachers.
There are three principal’s offices in total.
Ethan started by visiting the teachers’ office on the lowest floor.
As soon as he entered, he examined the teachers with the Eye of Horus.
Ethan remembered the movements of the First Order and the Third Order. If there was even a little bit of similarity to those movements, he could match them with the memories in his head.
‘There isn’t any.’
There wasn’t one on the first floor.
“teacher!”
As I was about to leave, I heard someone’s voice.
There are so many teachers here, I doubt they would have called me.
As soon as Ethan left, the voice was heard again.
“Teacher Ethan!”
It was a voice I had heard before.
“Hello, Miss Nadia.”
It was Nadia von Chernkastel who called him.
Nadia, her hair tied neatly, approached Ethan, carrying a rather heavy-looking book in one hand.
“This is my first time greeting you formally. I was planning on saying thank you at the congratulatory party.”
Nadia nodded. She had an embarrassed expression on her face because she had tried unsuccessfully to help Ethan, who was in trouble due to the previous Chen Garcia incident.
He solved it before I could help.
“Thank you for helping me back then. If it weren’t for Mr. Ethan, I would have failed the exam. I was in a really bad condition.”
“It was nothing serious. I have a very weak body, so things like that happen to me a lot.”
Ethan said with a smile.
Then he bent down slightly and approached her.
Nadia looked startled as the distance between them suddenly narrowed.
“Why, why all of a sudden… … .”
“I couldn’t tell you at that time.”
Ethan spoke in a voice that only Nadia could hear.
“It’s not just a simple check.”
“yes?”
“That stomachache back then, someone had been intentionally blocking Miss Nadia’s mana road for quite some time. It happened because the blood flow was blocked.”
Her expression changed at Ethan’s words.
Until just now, he had been the face of an Academy of Magic teacher, but now he had the face of a member of the Chernkastel family.
“I don’t know who did this, but be careful.”
After saying those words, Ethan turned around and left the teachers’ office.
And in the second floor teachers’ office, Ethan found a man walking with the movements he remembered.
He was a nice-looking teacher who wore glasses.
As a teacher of pensions who mainly teaches second-year classes, Ethan watched his movements more closely.
For a moment, his eyes and Ethan’s met.
“Hello, Mr. Ethan.”
“hello.”
Ethan was already a famous figure within the Academy, so everyone knew him. When we made eye contact, we knew him even more.
There was something odd about that smile that made people look so good.
‘found.’
Second year pension and Hasen Little. He is the First Order of the Moon Followers.

“I found it, Your Majesty!”
Schudlen’s expression was very bright.
At the sight, Yeorika’s eyebrows twitched.
“Well done, Schudlen.”
Shudlen finally smiled brightly at Ethan’s praise.
‘As expected, he’s capable.’
Finding traces of the outside was the most difficult task.
It was a task that required a lot of physical strength in many ways, and if your senses weren’t sensitive, you could actually miss it even if you saw it right in front of you.
But Ethan intentionally sent Shudlen outside instead of Yerika.
‘Only then can Shudlen grow.’
Schudlen needs a chance to grow.
Since he was a talent who was sure to grow if given the chance, there was no need to be reluctant just because it was difficult.
“Thanks to you, I was able to get things done at just the right time.”
“I am not too late. Thank goodness, Your Majesty!”
Now all that remains is to lure the First Order into a trap using information leaked from outside.
* * *
Dark night.
There was a man in a pitch-black robe walking across the night.
As usual, covertly.
However, he moved quickly, received the report, and then reported on the work within the academy.
The report was simple.
Internal work is progressing smoothly, and a large magic circle is also being steadily built.
One variable was the new teacher, Ethan Wickers, who stood out from his first class, living up to the principal’s appointment as the class’ top teacher.
But even so, he’s just a new teacher.
It was a regular report that things were going as planned.
As soon as he finished his regular report, the man in the robe slowly disappeared into the darkness.
but.
Phew-.
A sword pierced his back as he tried to disappear.
Shaaaaak-.
“Ugh.”
A pure white glow began to spread around the pierced area.
“Who knew that Hassen Little was the First Order?”
“Who, who… … .”
“I know you killed more than a hundred people to get to that position. Maybe several times that number.”
“Uh, Ethan Wickes?”
The man in the robe, no, Hassen Little, looked back, bleeding.
The situation didn’t make sense. Why was new teacher Ethan Wickers doing this to himself?
And how do you know!
“Uh, how… … definitely.”
“You must have hidden it well.”
Ethan said what he wanted to say.
“But those are people who don’t know you well, so they can’t help but not know.”
Ethan pulled out his Frostblade and slashed Hassen Little once more.
Hassen Little’s body just collapsed.
“Hoooooo.”
Ethan used the same method as before to kill Hassen Little. Now Ethan was completely weakened. But this time he was determined.
‘This time I won’t sleep on the floor.’
Because today was colder than that day.

“Fuck, fuck-! What the hell is this!”
Ares, the god of war.
He tried to somehow attract the hottest subscribers these days, even at the cost of his pride.
But he did not reply to my letter.
He was so angry that he couldn’t even comfort himself by not responding to Athena’s letter, who was also a goddess of war.
That’s understandable, because he didn’t read the letter and subscribed to another god and wrote a review after subscribing.
“You fucking [subscribe to only the real God]! If I’m not the real God, then what am I!”
Ares was angry and looked at his newly uploaded subscription review.
But despite my anger, I ended up reading his subscription review to the end as if I was possessed.
“Damn-! Well done!”
Once again Ares almost subscribed to that unknown oriental god named Hong Gil-dong.
“The number of subscribers and likes keeps increasing. The ability itself is ordinary, but the video flows in a way that it is good to obtain that ordinary ability.”
The ability to move is really important.
From short distances to long distances.
The ability to move can be seen as useful in warfare, as it saves time spent moving, and can be a huge advantage if utilized.
“How can this god named Hong Gil-dong make me feel so special?”
And that wasn’t the end of it.
“Horus? The Horus I know?”
There was one more god who belatedly gained subscribers and likes.
“Is this guy also a god chosen by [Only Subscribe to the True God]!”
Ares screamed.
