Transcension Academy Chapter 57

Chapter 57 – Identity (1)

A hotel room located in Korea.

Calia sat alone in the quiet room and stared out the window without saying a word.

And looking at the scenery of Seoul, Korea, which seemed barely visible at a glance through such a window, Calia was lost in thought.

smart.

At that moment, the sound of knocking brought Calia to her senses.

“Come on in.”

Then he looked away from the window and turned his head toward the door.

Then a man in a black hood entered the room, and Calia asked him as if she had been waiting.

“How was it, Calcus?”

“Kim Seo-joon is said to have won the final.”

At Calcus’s words, Calia nodded softly.

And that fact wasn’t particularly surprising.

Because I already knew that Seojun Kim would win.

The important thing was this:

“Did you see the Distortion?”

“That is…”

Calcus hesitated and muttered.

Calia waited silently, and after a while, Calcus slowly opened his mouth.

“I could see the Distortion, but… I can’t decide if I should consider this a Distortion.”

“What do you mean?”

Calcus continued immediately.

“It is said that Kim Seo-joon suddenly changed the weapon he was using. And he says he used an aura blade during the confrontation…”

“Wasn’t that originally planned?”

Calcus nodded slowly.

Calia looked at Calcus like that and was silently lost in thought.

So little time has passed.

“All right. For now, please keep an eye on it. I will report this to the apostle.”

Calia turned her gaze to Calcus.

But for some reason, Calcus didn’t answer.

When Calia looked back, Calcus was standing in a hesitant position.

Callia said.

“Do you have anything more to say?”

Calcus hesitated for a moment before opening his mouth.

“……Do you have any reason to go this far?”

“What do you mean?”

“I know that Kim Seo-joon is a person worth keeping an eye on. but···”

Calcus didn’t finish, but Calia could see what was to come.

So instead of blaming Calcus, Calia responded by not answering.

In fact, as Calcus said, Kim Seo-joon was not in a position that the Jinrihoe would be interested in this much.

In fact, if you look only at the relationship, Kim Seo-joon was nothing more than a student, not a pro hunter.

It was true that he was excellent.

Irregulars, who are on a different level from regular students, are also right.

However, even in the world of pro hunters, they ask if they are irregular enough to be on a different level… well…

Calia could not readily nod her head.

Of course, I didn’t know what would happen with time.

But right now, there are plenty of hunters who are better than Kim Seo-joon and need to keep an eye on them.

More than anything.

“With this 10-star dungeon break, the Korean association launched a full-scale investigation. Because of that, the plans we had been preparing were inevitably disrupted. Is there a reason for this because of only one student…”

The fact that Jinrihoe intervened this time was irrational.

That’s why Calia was able to fully understand Calcus’ question.

Because Calia also had the same questions as Calcus.

Even so, Calia’s reason for doing this was simple.

“What did the Apostle of Substitute Temperance say…”

“Calcus.”

In response to Calcus’s question, Calia responded coldly.

And Calcus kept his mouth shut at Calia’s cold sting.

At the same time, he bowed his head as if he realized his mistake.

“sorry.”

Calia looked at Calcus like that, then looked away again.

And Calia recalled her recent encounter with the Apostle of Temperance.

.

.

It was not long after the dungeon distortion accident occurred in Korea.

When Calia heard that the Apostle of Temperance was looking for her, she hurriedly got ready and headed to the Apostle.

‘Calia. I heard that the Distortion occurred in Korea this time. Is it true?’

And the apostle of temperance he faced.

The Apostle of Temperance was wearing a black robe darker than jet black.

Because of that, I couldn’t see his face at all.

However, this pressure, as if encroaching on the space, unfilteredly revealed that the being in front of me was an apostle of self-control.

Calia took a few deep breaths and opened her mouth slowly.

‘……yes. It’s true.’

‘And I heard that the Distortion has been resolved. Is this also true?’

Calia nodded without speaking.

‘Who solved the Distortion?’

‘This is Kim Seo-joon.’

Moment.

Calia spit out an answer, but she couldn’t hide her doubt.

It was also because the question of the apostle of temperance was quite strange.

The Disciple of Temperance knew the news that the Distortion had been resolved.

And that’s why he called Calia.

In a word, it means that you have seen and heard everything over and over again.

So the Apostle of Temperance said, ‘I heard that the Distortion has been resolved.’ I’m not asking like this.

‘I heard that a person named Seojun Kim solved the Distortion.’ I should have said this.

But why…

‘Keep an eye on the behavior of that person named Seojun Kim.’

Suddenly, an unexpected order came from the Apostle of Temperance.

Calia hesitated for a moment before asking.

‘May I ask why?’

That moment.

‘Keugh!’

Instead of answering, tremendous momentum erupted from the Apostle of Temperance.

Calia could not come to her senses from the pressure emanating from the Apostle of Temperance.

It was Calia who did not change her expression despite the pressure of the Sword Saint in the past, but the Apostle of Temperance changed the arc.

Then the Apostle of Temperance spoke.

‘Calia. I know that you are the most established among the successors of the apostles of chastity. But sometimes you seem to forget that that doesn’t mean you’re an apostle of chastity.’

In a word, he meant that if he was a successor, he should not cross the topic like a successor.

‘I’m sorry…!’

Calia hurriedly admitted her mistake, and the Apostle of Temperance looked at Calia and regained her momentum.

And then, he sighed and spoke.

‘It’s not my will.’

Calia is in a dizzy mind. He chewed over the words the Apostle of Temperance had uttered.

I mean, it’s not your own will.

If you interpret this word differently, it means that the apostle of temperance now is in a position to deliver someone’s order.

And let your thoughts reach here.

‘That, that, that word…’

Calia’s voice began to tremble involuntarily.

The Apostle of Temperance is none other than one of the Seven Apostles.

And the seven apostles are ‘humility, mercy, kindness, patience, chastity, self-control, diligence.’ It meant the apostles corresponding to, and also referred to beings in the most important position within the Jinrihoe.

Not only in Jinrihoe, but also in the world, no one dares to do anything about them.

But using such an apostle of self-control as a messenger to deliver orders?

Searching all over the world, not many could do that.

No, in fact, there was only one.

Calia’s body trembled involuntarily.

The Apostle of Temperance looked at Calia and opened his mouth again.

‘In the meantime, I know that you are doing things alone without the elders’ approval. And considering the status of your successor, it is somewhat acceptable. However, please report everything related to Kim Seo-joon.’

Thus, the apostle of self-control left leisurely, leaving behind meaningful words.

The event match ended with Seojun winning.

And mock exams were also ended without additional exams.

In the end, along with the Hunter Mill practice test, all of the event matches ended with Seo Jun winning.

and to these results.

“It’s crazy… I don’t think I’ll have any regrets even if I die today…”

People were literally outraged.

“I’m going to Asari’s house to reach Buddhahood… Do you want to join me?”

“Do you really need to go home? I can do it right now.”

“You need to change your panties.”

“Ah, admit it.”

Not just the spectators who came to watch the game without thinking.

“…… I didn’t know Kim Seo-joon would be like this.”

“How much time is left for the Pro Hunter exam? Shall we contact you first?”

Scouts from various guilds and raid teams.

“When I heard that Seojun Kim solved the last dungeon accident, I thought he was exaggerating… Hmm.”

“According to the President of the Association, the Demonic Disciple and the Sword Saint are keeping an eye on it.”

“What, what? Those two?”

All, even bureaucrats from governments and associations.

The name Kim Seo-joon was clearly engraved on the stone.

In addition, unlike previous competitions, this event match did not proceed only offline.

It was being broadcast live nationwide, which meant that Seo-joon’s actions could be seen by everyone in the country.

『[Chosun Wizard Maegwan Magic]: Crazy…! Today’s Hunter Mill Mock Test Event Match Spring? Are you sane??』

As a result, the hunter-related community was also burning with Seo-joon’s story.

.

.

B[The nun who hit the monk]: Out of her mind. It was cheaper than me.

ㄴ[Joseon Dynasty Seal Look]: Chew-in-jeong. In particular, when he was using Kim Seo-joon’s aura blade at the end, he smashed the front door with a hammer and ran out to the road in front of the house, tearing his shirt and shouting from the east, west, north, and south.

ㄴ[Howl’s Mmm~Squeaky Castle]: ㅁ ㅋ ㅋ ㅋ ㅋ But I admit it. Yes, I was bored. I thought it was over when Lee Min-yul used stealth. The thought that Kim Seo-joon would use the blade for aura…

.

.

Strictly speaking, what Seojun saw was not an Aura Blade.

To be more precise, it wasn’t the Aura Blade people knew.

To borrow Merlin’s expression, Seo-joon’s own law was introduced to the world.

In a word, it was nothing more than a transformation of the form of Aura and reproducing it in Seo Jun’s own way.

Still, there was no big difference from the Aura Blade in terms of power, so it was no different from the Aura Blade in the eyes of people.

anyway.

The Hunter Mill Mock Test, which had many twists and turns, ended with such a big ripple.

And Seo-jun, the protagonist and winner of the excommunication.

“How… I guess it’s my feelings that I’m gradually becoming a monster, right?”

“It is a monster. You talk a little harshly, Mr. Seoyoon.”

“It is severe. Who would think so? Speaking of using Aura Blades in particular… By the way, where did you learn about Aura Blades?”

Seojun met Seoyoon and talked about various things.

The contents were mainly what Seojun showed in mock exams and event matches.

“Haha… I was lucky.”

Because of that, Seo-joon had to give off a shy smile.

Quite a long time had passed, and when she thought the story was roughly organized, Seoyoon slowly opened her mouth.

“After that, I will take care of the prize money. So… are you going home today?”

“yes. I think so.”

Seojun nodded and continued.

“But before that, I have someone to meet.”

“Who are you meeting?”

“yes. Now is the time to come…”

It was then.

buzz buzz.

“Oh, well! Because I hate it!”

Somewhere along with a murmur, an annoyed cry was heard.

Seojun and Seoyoon naturally turned their heads toward the source of the sound.

“We promise to treat you the best. As well as scholarships…”

“Speaking of our academy, it is a 1st division academy with the best facilities and excellent instructors…”

There, with people gathered like bees.

“Because I hate it!”

Min-yul shouting at such people gathered.

And at that sight, Seo-joon was able to grasp the situation at once.

The protagonist of this Hunter Mill mock test and event match was definitely Seojun.

However, it was not only Seo-jun who stood out.

Lee Min-yul, who faced none other than Seo-joon in the finals.

Even though he lost to Seo-joon in the end, it was enough to get people’s attention just by beating the three major academies and taking second place.

And above all, since Min-yul was a self-taught student, the academy had no choice but to drool.

“Don’t do that, visit yourself once…”

It was natural for various academy officials to stick together to recruit Min-yul.

“Is that the person you are going to meet?”

“yes. It is, but…”

At Seoyoon’s question, Seojun slowly nodded.

And looking at Minyul again.

“No, what are you going to do when people are lined up like that?”

He shook his head.

I thought it would be like this in the first place, so I deliberately told them to see each other like this.

“No matter how much money you give, no matter what benefit you give! I don’t go to the academy!”

Min-yul was walking towards Seo-joon steadfastly, going one way or another among the crowd.

And right at that moment.

“no! I don’t like it, so I keep doing that… huh?”

When Minyul found Seojun, he stood tall and stopped.

At the same time, those who were chasing Minyul also stopped.

Naturally, people’s eyes turned to the place where Seojun and Seoyoon were.

For a while, Seojun and Seoyoon were taken aback by the sudden gaze of people.

Min-yul seemed to be thinking for a while, then shouted at the people.

“I’m going to Dream Academy! okay?”

A fleeting moment of silence.

“……What is he saying now?”

There, only Seo-joon’s dazed voice resonated.

#

Seo-joon took Min-yul and escaped as if he were running away.

In the process, I had to struggle to avoid people rushing at me, but anyway.

Seojun, Minyul and Seoyoon were able to escape from the people.

Seo-jun looked at Min-yul in silence, leaving behind Seo-yoon’s puzzled expression.

“Because people keep sticking to me… I don’t know.”

Then Min-yul scratched the back of his head and said, as if he knew his mistake.

Seo-joon sighed deeply and spat out his words.

“You mean you just did it?”

“Um… no. I have no thoughts at all.”

Seojun tilted his head once and asked again.

“You don’t have any intention of going to the academy?”

“No, I don’t mean to go to the same academy as you.”

“……”

Seo-joon couldn’t figure out how to react to this.

He said that he would come, but it was because Seo-joon had no reason to talk.

After all, Seojun was just a student at Dream Academy.

This was a problem that Seoyoon had to deal with, not Seojun.

Of course, if it was Seoyoon, Seojun’s opinion would be the most important.

It was clear that Seo-joon would not accept it if he strongly opposed it.

But Seo-joon didn’t want to interfere that much.

It was because the dream academy was no different from Seoyoon’s dream, and if Seojun intervened one by one like this, it would be no different from what Geomseong did.

Seo-joon shook his head as if pushing away complicated thoughts.

In the first place, Min-yul only said that he had an idea, but he did not promise to come.

So now I had to deal with the problems that had to be dealt with before that.

Seojun said to Minyul.

“For now, we’ll talk about it again a little later. Do you remember the promise?”

“of course.”

Seeing Minyul nod his head, Seojun slowly opened his mouth.

“The person you said was Master. Who is that person?”

Minyul immediately opened his mouth.
