Chapter 232 – Omen
It wasn’t a fight with Jecheon Daeseong that started like that.
“Cuck!”
To be precise, training under the guise of confrontation.
Wow—billion!
More accurately, it could be called a beating under the guise of training.
Kwa Dang Tang!
Seo-joon, who was hit by Yeoui-bong of Jecheon Daeseong, rolled on the floor.
A terrible pain raged through his body, and his mind was dizzy.
Seo-joon grabbed his teeth, biting them, and seized the spirit that was moving away.
To be honest,
I thought I could deal with it to some extent.
While absorbing Beserk’s heart, Seo-joon continued to grow by leaps and bounds.
Above all, in the battle with Eldritch, I was able to take a step towards transcendence.
That’s why I may not be able to beat Jecheon Daeseong, but
I thought I wouldn’t be beaten for nothing.
However, Seo-joon overlooked one fact.
[What, that’s boring. Try a little harder.]
It is none other than the fact that this place is not the Earth, but the Transcendent Academy!
As a result, Jecheon Daeseong is not subject to any causal restrictions!
There, when I managed to raise my gaze, the Jecheondaeseong Fortress was on top of Yeouibong Peak.
He was looking at Seo-joon with a bored expression, clearing his nose and parvo.
The power of the perfect Jecheondaeseong without any causal restrictions.
It really was like a crazy monkey!
Seo-joon squeezed all his strength and raised himself.
“Keep it up…!”
However, the intense pain swelled and he collapsed to the floor again.
Daeseong Jecheon yawned at Seo-jun’s appearance.
[Haam… You were so boring that you wanted to die. Take responsibility.]
“shit.”
Seojun had nothing to say.
[What, have you already given up? Eh tsk tsk.]
“You can’t be the opponent, the opponent. Besides, this wasn’t a match, wasn’t it training my senses? What if I just blindly lose?”
[It’s not fun if you just practice.]
ha.
Anyway, that bastard monkey didn’t answer.
That moment.
[Oh yeah! How about this?]
Jecheon Daesung continued his conversation by clasping his palms together.
[If you brush even the tip of my hair, I’ll have a good fight with the lady. how is it?]
“yes? Is that true?”
[then! Auntie, are you okay?]
〔That’s me.〕
Seeing Irina nodding her head, Seo-joon’s eyes flashed.
“Not one shot, but the ends of the hair. You must keep it.”
[of course. I joke, but I don’t lie. You know?]
“Yeah, but…”
[But can you? I don’t know if it’s because I keep being beaten and I can’t learn anything and get kicked out!]
Daesung Jecheon smiled.
Seo-joon gnashed his teeth and got up from his seat.
win!
That bastard monkey will definitely win!
Seo-joon burst into TRP speed towards Jecheondaeseong.
The distance narrowed in an instant with a flashing light.
A distance that leaps from moment to moment.
However, Jecheon Daeseong was in a state of avoiding the seat right away.
‘Where is it?’
Seojun quickly scanned the surroundings.
At the same time, the senses were expanded to the maximum.
but not visible
Even Chiron’s heightened senses couldn’t capture it.
The opponent is a crazy monkey.
He was a transcendent among transcendents who competed for the top.
‘I can’t reach it at the current level.’
I had to admit what I had to admit.
However, I couldn’t feed him poisonous bananas like last time.
There was no way to feed
Poisoned bananas had no effect on Jecheon Daeseong, who was not subject to causal restrictions.
I don’t know if it’s the real Jormungandr’s deadly poison.
Seojun calmly closed his eyes.
If you can’t reach the current level,
We have to go one step further.
Seo-joon recalled what Irina had taught him.
Recognize the elements that make up the surroundings of an object.
Beings need space in order to exist,
Therefore, it inevitably affects the space.
The flow of air that changes when a being exhales.
A subtle vibration that spreads when a being steps on the ground.
These are inevitable limitations that beings who need space have no choice but to have.
No one can escape these limits.
So even if you can’t directly perceive the object,
It is possible to indirectly recognize an object through such information.
‘Irina told me to go further and rule the environment…’
It’s not quite up to that level yet.
You can’t even get to that level all of a sudden.
Step by step, step by step.
Like expanding your own territory.
It brings the surrounding environment down to the realm of the senses.
That moment.
─.
With Seo-jun’s senses, there was an illusion that something was floating.
I feel a strange sensation that cannot be clearly defined.
Seojun gently opened his eyes.
Jecheondaeseong is still invisible.
There was also nothing that caught my senses.
However, I can feel the vague presence of Jecheondaeseong.
Something like a thread that can be caught, but can’t be caught.
‘now!’
Ka-ang!
The rushing Yeouibong was blocked by Longinus’s spear.
[······!!]
[·······!!】
Jecheon Daeseong and Irina’s eyes widened at the same time.
Seojun twisted Longinus’s spear.
Cacan!
A sharp sound erupted, and Longinus’s spear tore the sound.
At the same time, it was shot fiercely, aiming for the neck of Jecheon Daeseong.
Daeseong Jecheon hurriedly retrieved Yeoui-bong and stepped back.
yeah back off
Seo-joon felt the actions of Jecheon Daeseong.
The movement of Jecheon Daeseong, which has not been seen before.
Speed, digging trajectory.
All of that was vaguely felt.
Seo Jun chased after the Great Wall of Jecheon and brandished the spear of Longinus.
[Suddenly what!]
Daeseong Jecheon shouted with a surprised expression.
But soon he burst into laughter as if he were going to die of fun.
shhh!
Soon, Yeouibong of Jecheondaeseong flew into the air.
Seo-joon was also able to recognize that.
don’t dodge this time
Seojun swung the spear of Longinus wide.
The Spear of Longinus and the Nueui Bong tear apart the space and burrow into each other.
The power of transcendence contained within them covets each other’s lives.
Rurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
The walls vibrated and the air shook.
Seo-joon’s body was thrown back from the violent collision.
It was evidence that he had clearly been pushed back in a power confrontation.
However, Seo-joon was not discouraged.
can respond
It can respond to the movement of Jecheondaeseong.
That moment.
[It’s still far.]
The voice of Jecheon Daeseong came from behind.
‘Which break?’
Seo-joon could feel goosebumps all over his body.
I kept watching,
I didn’t feel it at all this time.
But there is no time to think.
Seo-joon swung his body around and swung the spear of Longinus.
However, the movement of Jecheon Daesung was a couple of beats faster.
Wow—billion!
riotous noise.
Seo-jun’s body flew away.
[Hahahahaha! It suddenly became so much fun!]
Kwadangtang with the laughter of Jecheon Daesung!
Seo-joon’s body, which was flying in the air, hit the floor roughly.
Could it be that the bones in the whole body have collapsed?
The terrible throbbing pain was not of the kind to be endured.
“Keuk…!”
However, Seo-joon stood up from his seat.
I got up somehow, using the spear of Longinus as a support.
“One more game…”
[Haha! Your eyes have changed! good! However much!]
Daeseong Jecheon smiled happily and grabbed Yeoui-bong.
Seo-jun calmed the pain and exhaled calmly.
The movements of Jecheondaeseong are vaguely felt.
Of course, it was blurry anyway.
Jecheondaeseong, which has no causal restrictions, could not be defeated.
It is also impossible to be able to feed one shot.
But somehow, it seemed like I could brush at least one hair.
flash
Seo-joon fired TRP’s speed straight toward Jecheon Daeseong.
And just then.
Bad-.
Along with a clear sound coming from somewhere, Seo-jun’s body suddenly stopped.
The burst of light quickly subsided.
As if not allowed to move,
My body was hard as stone and I couldn’t move.
[I think this is the end.]
And Irina’s voice came through.
[Eh, I just thought it would be fun, but it stopped.]
After that, Jecheon Daesung spat out words as if grumbling.
[It feels like shit.]
It was a dirty metaphor, but
There was no analogy more fitting than this.
Seojun was able to move his body only then.
After a while, he turned around and looked at Irina.
“I can do more. Just a little more…”
〔no.〕
Irina cut off Seo-jun and answered.
[Kim Seo-joon’s condition isn’t very good right now. He did too much. It is said that there is nothing wrong with the physical body, but there is a limit to enduring with Sakyamuni-sama’s mental strength.]
“·······”
Seojun had nothing to say.
Transcendent Academy is a space located outside the dimension.
Seo-joon’s real body remained on Earth.
That’s why the blows made now went into mental damage.
If it wasn’t for that, Seo-joon would have fallen out immediately.
However, as Irina said, even Shakyamuni’s immobility was slowly reaching its limit.
An EX-level sensation that surpasses the SSS-level.
That power far exceeded Seo-joon’s expectations.
[By the way, is it really surprising? I didn’t know you’d learn so quickly.]
Irina’s expression was pure admiration.
[You seem to have a sense of the concept and theory to some extent, so now you can learn it in Kim Seo-joon’s own way.]
〔And if you learn more from here, Seojun Kim will be in trouble. Above all, there is no time.]
Irina looked away for a moment and looked into the air.
Then he said with a bright smile.
[There are people waiting for Kim Seo-joon, right?]
“yes? Are you the one waiting for me?”
Seojun tilted his head and asked.
Then, like a vision, a scene began to appear in front of Seo-joon.
There, Seo-jun was lying still, like a dead person.
As in the boundary space, the time of the body has stopped.
And just then.
Fire, fire!
Suddenly, dark flames began to soar over Seo-jun’s body!
Tring! Tring!
At the same time, Seo-jun’s smartphone notification started ringing like crazy.
《Atlas lecture progress rate 89.4% (+1.1%)》
《Atlas lecture progress rate 90.7% (+1.3%)》
.
.
The progress rate of the Atlas River was rising there.
“what···?”
A moment of embarrassment.
Seo-joon could see Soo-yeon using Inferno magic.
“What crazy!”
Seo-joon shouted involuntarily.
To be honest, the flames of the Inferno magic didn’t matter much.
That’s because Atlas’s refusal to speak was enough to handle.
Seojun’s body was not injured or anything like that.
but.
“Your clothes are burning!”
It wasn’t the clothes I was wearing!
Last time, thanks to the care of the watcher, the clothes were safe.
But not this time.
The clothes were roaring and burning in the hellfire of the black Inferno!
In just a little while, the situation will burn completely.
“Director! Please send me soon! Quickly!”
Seo-joon urgently approached Irina.
Irina tilted her head as if pretending to be pretentious.
[Didn’t you just say you could do a little more? And if we break up now, I don’t know when we’ll be able to meet again… Are you leaving right away like this?]
“That doesn’t matter now!”
Irina gave a small smile.
Bad-.
and a clear sound.
[I hope the day will come when we can meet again.]
At the end of Irina’s last words,
Seo-joon’s mind was cut off.
#
Right after Seojun left.
[It’s the most fun to fight against that guy… Well, I have to promise the next time. Then I go, lady.]
<I’m leaving too.>
Jecheon Daeseong and mentors also left to find their own work.
After everyone left, Irina was left alone in the director’s office.
Irina seemed lost in thought.
He stood still in his place.
How much time had passed like that?
〔I didn’t expect you to visit us so soon.〕
Suddenly, Irina muttered to herself.
He seemed to be talking to someone, but there was no one there except Irina.
Irina slowly turned her gaze and looked into the void.
And right at that moment.
“Are you crazy, Irina?”
An unknown will came from the air.
A watcher who oversees the dimension.
Irina quietly raised her eyes and looked at the presence of the observer.
『What you did is a clear violation of the contract. I must not have forgotten the cost of the violation.”
〔It can’t be. What oath did I violate?]
『Use of cause and effect without permission. I didn’t allow you to teach him. But, you arbitrarily—”
〔yes? Who am I teaching? I don’t know at all, but?]
『·······』
At the shameless words of Irina, the observer lost his will for a moment.
Irina was putting a question mark on her face as if she really didn’t know.
『Are you going to let go of pretense?』
[It’s not pretentious, it’s really something I don’t know. I just persuaded Seojun Kim well and made him give up the free coupon.]
Irina smiled and continued.
[Our oath. As it is.]
The observer was dumbfounded for a moment and uttered his will as if shouting.
『Not pretentious, are you trying to play with words? Anyone can see that he gave up a free coupon in exchange for your teaching!”
[No, I really don’t know. What evidence do you have that I did that? Do you have any evidence?]
“evidence? What proof do you need? As long as you don’t intervene, there’s no way the burden of cause and effect will suddenly come to you like this!!』
The observer shouted with a will full of anger.
That would be the case as soon as Seo-jun passed away, the causation of the dimension that was caught.
Because it’s really crazy!
There was only one such case in all dimensions.
however.
[I’m not sure… have you seen it yourself?]
“What, what?”
〔I asked if you saw that I taught Seojun Kim?〕
Did you put adamantium on your face?
Irina was laughing single-singly with an expression that she really didn’t know.
『·······』
The observer lost the will to say anything again.
That expression…
It was a look that seemed to have been seen many times.
For an instant, a nightmare flashed through the mind of the observer.
At the same time, I thought of a guy I never wanted to see again.
Is it because of that?
The observer shouted out loud, full of anger.
『The proof, I will show you!』
Bad-.
In an instant, with a clear sound, a book appeared in front of Irina.
The Book of Thoth, which can reveal the records of cause and effect.
『If you look at this rat-like toy, that record will remain.』
Before long, Thoth’s books began to unfold.
That moment.
Ku-gu-gu-gu-gu-gung…!
A tremendous sense of intimidation began to weigh down the entire space.
It is concentrated in the unfolding Book of Thoth,
He blocked Thoth’s book from unfolding further.
The observer let out an annoyed will.
“What are you doing?”
[I do not intervene in the circumstances of the academy. Wasn’t that a pact?]
The observer had no choice but to stop.
It was because Irina’s words were true.
The Book of Thoth is a record of causality held by the Transcendent Academy.
It is located outside the dimension and is free from the observer’s influence.
do not interfere with each other
That was the first oath from the first transcendent.
If you had told Seo-jun the secret of the oath with the observer,
That is, if you interfered with the work of the observer.
The observer could see it immediately.
However, Irina kept the right line.
Therefore, the observer did not have the right to read the book of Thoth.
So, in order to check for a breach of a covenant, we have to break it.
Even if a breach of the covenant is confirmed,
The observer is also in a state of violation of the oath, so the authority to dispose of it disappears.
Ironically, the observer could not do this or that.
『There’s no way you would have rolled such a small hair… Is that the damn guy?”
The observer couldn’t utter any will for a while.
So little time passed.
『Either way… it’s a stupid choice.』
The observer said as if reprimanding Irina.
『As the causal burden on that dimension increases, its limitations are also released.』
『Why did I have to stop that bastard from using a free coupon, you wouldn’t know that?』
『Or do you think that bastard can handle him in good condition? The guy you couldn’t handle and sent away?”
under.
The observer let out a will similar to a laugh and continued.
“Are you stupid or arrogant?”
[Isn’t that something we have to wait and see?]
“As expected, it was stupid.”
The observer followed the will.
“Don’t get me wrong, Irina. No matter how much you are a ‘third’ transcendentalist, you are only a transcendentalist after the concept of transcendence was established.”
“There is nothing you can do.”
〔You probably said something similar to Master, right? In the end, he couldn’t handle it, so he killed Master.]
The observer paused momentarily.
However, as if nothing had happened, he soon let out his will.
“Think freely. However, you will surely regret this choice today.”
The observer left just like that.
#
The mind seems to be swimming in the water.
I couldn’t properly recognize the humming sound in my ears.
The moment when such a hazy mind tries to continue.
“Burn up.”
Inferno.
Along with Suyeon’s voice, a strong mana burst out from somewhere.
Soon, black flames burst into Seo-jun’s whole heart.
Fire, fire, fire!
Like a pitch-black aurora.
Jet-black flames soared through Seo-jun’s body.
“stop!!!”
Seo-joon jumped up from his seat and shouted.
The pitch-black flame still wrapped around Seo-jun’s body.
It looked like a demon descending from hell.
“Oh! Alive!”
Suyeon’s voice is heard.
When I turned my gaze, Soo-yeon was raising her magic power with one hand outstretched.
Apparently, he was preparing another magic.
Seoyoon was standing next to him.
Seojun said with an absurd expression.
“What are you doing right now?”
“Brother, you were wearing makeup!”
“·······”
Seeing Soo-yeon shout out confidently, Seo-joon was at a loss for words.
Of course, Seo-jun knew that he was wearing makeup.
Fire, fire, fire!
Even now, I could tell just by looking at the black flames burning through my whole body.
however.
Why are you wearing makeup on a normal person!
And just then.
“Seojun! Why do you keep dying!”
With a deliberately angry expression, Seoyoon strode towards Seojun.
“for a moment!”
Seeing Seoyoon like that, Seojun was startled and shouted.
However, Seoyoon continued to approach Seojun.
This time, there was no hesitation, as if he was going to speak firmly.
Seo-jun shouted at Seo-yoon.
“Don’t come any closer!!”
Only then did Seoyoon stop and stop moving.
Fire, fire, fire!
Inferno, the flames of hell covering Seo-jun’s entire body.
The hot flame did not harm Seo-jun.
But it was enough to reduce the clothes she was wearing to ashes.
Fortunately, it was invisible due to Inferno’s black flames.
It was as if a black curtain had been put on it.
However, if this flame is extinguished…
exactly when you get close.
“Ah…!”
seemed to some extent.
Seo-yoon’s eyes were on Seo-joon, but he stopped and hardened.
The last time he was cremated in America, Seo-joon’s clothes were fine.
That’s why Seoyoon thought she would be fine this time as well.
But at that time, there was a watcher’s consideration,
Not now.
Of course, Seoyoon couldn’t understand such a situation.
“Uh… uh uh…”
Looking at Seo-jun, Seo-yoon’s face became angry and hot.
In an instant, he turned red like a carrot and began to panic.
Before long, Seoyoon quickly turned her head and sat down in her seat.
“Ah, ah, ah, ah, I didn’t see it!!!”
It’s not that I didn’t see it, but Seoyoon’s words that I didn’t see it.
“Get out now!!”
Seo-joon shouted, bursting with the magic of the triple battle.
