Transcension Academy Chapter 96

Episode 96 – Fish gather in clear, deep water (2)

Lee Ha-yoon felt dazed for a moment at the sight of Seo-jun turning around and leaving.

But I guess I’m just trying it out… so I stayed there.

However, Seo-joon only moved quickly as if he was really busy.

He might look back at least once out of curiosity, but Seo-jun never looked back.

The appearance of Seo-joon, who is already far away.

“Now, hold on!”

Lee Ha-yoon shouted while chasing after Seo-joon.

It was a voice that sounded quite urgent, but Seo-jun did not stop walking.

Lee Ha-yoon shouted while blocking Seo-jun’s path.

“for a moment. wait for a sec!”

“What?”

Seo-joon finally stopped and looked at Lee Ha-yoon, who stood in the way.

“·······”

However, Lee Ha-yoon did not say anything.

I just don’t know what to do and I just put on a puzzled expression.

“If you have nothing to say, I will go.”

When Seo-jun tried to leave again, Lee Ha-yoon hurriedly opened his mouth.

“There are rumors that you are a disciple of Sword Master…”

The voice seemed to creep in.

I couldn’t even hear it near the end.

Seo-joon looked at Lee Ha-yoon with an absurd look.

That would also be the case because Seo-jun was not a student of the Sword Master.

However, going into sparring mode as soon as you run into it could also be called a disciple if it falls into the category of a disciple.

But what Lee Ha-yoon said doesn’t mean that.

Seo-joon replied with a tone telling him not to say anything that didn’t sound like words.

“If I were a disciple of the Sword Saint, wouldn’t I have been using a sword instead of a spear?”

“…!!”

Lee Ha-yoon opened her eyes wide and looked surprised.

Seo-joon was surprised to see Lee Ha-yoon like that.

“what. Didn’t you really think about it?”

Lee Ha-yoon gently nodded his head.

Seo-joon looked at Lee Ha-yoon and then turned around and left.

“Then didn’t you learn anything from the Sword Master at Dream Academy?”

But for some reason, Lee Ha-yoon kept following Seo-joon.

Seo-joon ignored it and moved on in silence.

“What do you mainly teach at Dream Academy?”

However, Lee Ha-yoon didn’t know how to give up and followed up and asked me something.

Seo-joon quickened his pace to get rid of Lee Ha-yoon.

However, where is the best pro hunter talent not to have?

Lee Ha-yoon followed Seo-joon’s movements.

Seo-joon was fed up with Lee Ha-yoon’s figure following him even if he stepped on a certain amount of steps.

It really bothers me.

Seo-joon finally stopped walking.

“What are you so curious about?”

Lee Ha-yoon flinched at the sudden action of Seo-joon.

And then I gently lowered my gaze… It seemed like I was afraid of being hit again.

Seojun let out a deep sigh and said.

“Do you want to attach any reason to the fact that you lost to me? Is that the Sword Master?”

“Oh, no… it’s not like that.”

Seo-joon was at a loss for words for a moment.

That would also be the atmosphere of Lee Ha-yoon that can be seen now.

It was because the cold and arrogant atmosphere I had seen for the first time was nowhere to be seen.

It feels like watching a beast with all its teeth missing and whimpering in hunger.

Lee Ha-yoon hesitated for a while before spitting out the words.

“That… Ah! Where is the manager? Weren’t we together?”

“Seoyun? Why are you looking for Seoyoon?”

“Ha, I have something to say…”

Seojun tilted his head involuntarily.

What did Lee Ha-yoon have to say to Seo-yoon?

However, Seo-jun did not bother to ask what it was.

“I don’t know. I went first because I had something to see. I don’t know where it went.”

Then he spoke again.

“Then don’t follow me. If you come after me again…”

Startle!

Lee Ha-yoon hurriedly lowered his gaze.

Seo-joon slowly turned around and left.

#

A flower garden in an antique tile-roofed house.

Seoyoon and Seomuncheol were moving briskly to this place, which Geomseong (劍星) most often visited within the family.

The two walked silently without saying a word.

And when we reached the room where the sword castle was, Seo Moon-cheol took a step forward and said.

“Lord Moon. The lady has come.”

I didn’t hear the answer from the Sword Master.

However, Seo Mun-chul trudged and opened the room door.

Originally, it was the rudeness of the rudeness that I couldn’t dare to imagine, and I shouldn’t have done it.

However, Seo Moon-cheol knew better than anyone else that he didn’t care much about these things until Seo-yoon came.

“What are you doing all of a sudden?”

Unsurprisingly, the swordsman only expressed his doubts and did not say anything else.

Seoyoon slowly approached the Sword Saint and sat down on her knees.

In the process, Seoyoon didn’t say anything.

Geomseong could feel a certain sense of deja vu when he saw Seoyoon like that.

none other than a few years ago.

Seoyoon wants to quit being a hunter and become an academy instructor.

It was because the same appearance he had at the time he was talking to himself was reflected at first glance.

Even those eyes that contain a certain determined will.

Swordsman silently waited for Seoyoon’s words.

Also, no matter what.

“I want to hold the sword again.”

Shocking words flowed from Seoyoon’s mouth.

“…!”

“…!”

At Seoyoon’s sudden words, Geomsung as well as Seomuncheol opened their eyes wide.

Among them, the Sword Saint’s surprise reached its climax.

over the past few decades.

No, at any moment when the swordsman taught Seoyoon how to use the sword.

It was because Seoyoon didn’t say those words out of her mouth.

If I had to repeat the words “I don’t want to be”, I would have repeated it.

Not once did he ever mention that he wanted to hold a sword or learn it.

So the swordsman had no choice but to ask Seoyoon.

“……What is the reason?”

No matter how much she was her own granddaughter, the swordsman could not understand Seoyoon’s feelings.

Seoyoon hesitated for a moment before slowly opening her mouth.

“I want to go with you.”

It was a difficult word to guess.

But for some reason, a thought passed through the swordsman’s head.

“Are you talking about him now?”

Seoyoon didn’t have an answer.

So that could be the answer.

said the swordsman.

“Are you saying you want to give up your dream now and follow him to the path of a professional hunter?”

“no.”

Seoyoon firmly shook her head.

“I am not giving up on my dream.”

Then, the head of the swordsman gently tilted.

Seeing the swordsman like that, Seoyoon recalled a conversation she had with Seojun one day.

I’m not sure when.

It didn’t seem that long, seeing as he had memories of being fed up with Seo-joon’s money bug habit.

At that time, Seoyoon asked Seojun.

‘When did Seojun have the dream of becoming a professional hunter?’

Then, as if Seojun was talking about something, he answered like this.

‘Becoming a pro hunter isn’t my dream, is it?’

‘yes? Aren’t you training like this and saving money to become a professional hunter?’

‘That’s right… but being a professional hunter is not my dream.’

‘What do you mean?’

Until then, Seoyoon couldn’t understand Seojun’s words.

Just like how Geomseong feels for Seoyoon right now.

‘Hmm… Once, that high-ranking person said something like this. It’s hard to tell who it is, but it’s someone Seoyoon knows. haha···’

Seo-joon smiled awkwardly and said this.

‘He said that once. To dream is a verb. Occupation, on the other hand, is a noun. That’s why a job can’t be a dream.’

A word from Seo-joon that follows.

‘A professional hunter is not my dream.’

Seoyoon’s original dream was to teach someone.

He enjoyed teaching and loved that he was of some help to one person by doing so.

That’s why I dreamed of becoming a teacher, but I had no choice but to give up because I couldn’t overcome the opposition of the Sword Saint.

In the end, it was Seoyoon who chose the Hunter Academy instructor as the next best thing.

But now come and think.

I wondered if it was necessary to be confined to the title of teacher or lecturer.

Right now, Seoyoon herself was really learning a lot through Seojun.

It was changing with a lot of help.

‘Dream is a verb. Occupation, on the other hand, is a noun. A job as a professional hunter is not my dream.’

Seoyoon said to the swordsman with eyes full of determination.

“I want to walk my own path in a different way.”

The relationship with Seo-joon is as short as the short time.

The end of the relationship that has already arrived.

Not too long ago, Seoyoon accepted that fact.

It’s unfortunate, but I thought it was unavoidable.

What can’t be done. because it didn’t work

However, due to what happened in this exchange match, Seoyoon decided to be a little more honest.

I want to do more together.

I couldn’t guarantee or be sure how long we would be able to go together.

He is also well aware of how inadequate he is to stand by Seo-jun’s side.

But at least I didn’t want it to end like this.

I want to do a little more together.

To do so…

“I want to hold the sword again.”

“……”

Swordsman was speechless, unable to even open his mouth.

It was because Seoyoon’s will, which seemed to be visible now, seemed stronger than anything else.

Even more so than a few years ago.

‘What the hell is that guy…’

It’s been decades.

The time of the years when the swordsman tried to change Seoyoon’s heart.

And it was impossible.

Rather, it only caused Seoyoon’s repulsion, and because of that, they fell apart.

On the other hand, the period when Seoyoon and Seojun met was really short.

just a few months

It’s a really short time, less than a year.

From the point of view of the Sword Saint, who had been through a cataclysm, it could be said that it was like an instant.

However, the same amount of time has passed.

Seoyoon was sitting in front of her right now and said she wanted to hold a sword.

What the heck is that nothing bastard?

‘By the way, swordsman. Someone who sometimes thought it was nothing. He does what no one else can do, moreover.’

In the ears of the sword star, the words that the devil said someday flicker.

What else is causing the discomfort?

“……Wait for a moment.”

The swordsman raised himself.

#

Seo-joon, who roughly outplayed Lee Ha-yoon, headed straight to Dream Academy.

Originally, he was going to go to the hospital where Soo-yeon and Min-yul are, but when he heard that he had already been discharged, he turned his steps again.

Seeing that he had just been discharged from the hospital, fortunately, there seemed to be nothing wrong with him, so Seo-joon was able to completely let go of his worries.

Dream Academy arrived like that.

There was no one at Dream Academy.

He wondered if Seoyoon had come first, but it seemed that he hadn’t finished his business.

Seo-joon felt strange for nothing at the loneliness he hadn’t felt in a long time.

“What will happen to the next cause and effect of the store…”

Seo-joon immediately raised his smartphone.

The causal effect of the transcendent shop that was confirmed in this way is no different than 6 billion.

It was all of the prize money he would get for winning the second game.

“Aren’t you crazy?”

I had money, but it’s gone!

Of course, it was there because it hadn’t been written yet, but it was virtually the same as not being there.

To be honest, Seo-jun was thinking about 4 billion causality.

Because the causal factor to buy Gongqing Oil is 2 billion.

I thought it would increase about twice as much here.

Some people think it’s only twice, but in reality it’s not.

8 billion is next. 16 billion. 32 billion. 64 billion

If you go over 5 times like that, you will break through 100 billion.

If you repeat it a few times again, the trillion units will easily go over.

And the mentor said that in order to fill the bowl of Samdanjeon (三丹田), a huge amount of mana was required.

For Seo-jun, who might not know if he should drink the elixir like water, it was, as the mentor put it, ‘an enormous causal burden’.

It wasn’t even just buying elixirs.

Depending on the situation, you may need to purchase other items as well.

However, if it multiplied by 3 or 4 times instead of 2 times like this…

In addition, if you think about the curriculum of advanced lectures in the future…

“Such a f*cking academy!”

Seo-joon hit back and turned off the page of the transcendent store.

“I have to go around the dungeon quickly and collect money diligently…”

Seojun was still a student, so the 6-star dungeon was his limit.

But with the Pro Hunter exam coming up soon, things will change a lot by then.

Seojun let out a sigh.

“Eh, well, I’m not in a hurry right now.”

Then, he shook his head.

Right now, the first priority was to absorb the power of the scattered Gongqing Petroleum.

It could have changed depending on how much the power filled the three-way battle, so hasty judgments were prohibited.

Seojun immediately sat down.

It was because I needed to complete the daily assignments in order to attend the next lecture.

Just when I was trying to concentrate.

“……hmm?”

I felt a strange gaze from somewhere.

It was something subtle that could be overlooked if you weren’t paying attention.

That’s why Seo-joon noticed the identity right away and muttered.

“Does it always have to come like that?”

No answer came.

However, when Seo-joon stayed still as if it was useless, an answer came from the air.

– It’s really amazing every time I see it. Even the members of the Jinrihoe couldn’t recognize me, so how could they recognize me?

slip.

After that, as if the space split apart, an old man trudged out in front of Seojun.

It was none other than Darkness, one of the heroes of the cataclysm.

“Can you just feel it?”

“…I guess I’m old too.”

When Seo-joon shrugged his shoulders and replied, Amseong gave a slightly disapproving expression.

Not even the Truth Society. Not even a pro hunter.

It seemed that his pride was hurt that he was detected by Seo-joon, who was only a student.

But that was an idea that I was able to do because I didn’t know what the ignorance was.

Seo-joon was getting used to Chiron’s senses.

And Chiron’s sense was a sense that transcendentalists must acquire.

In a word, the senses of transcendentalists.

No matter how much the ignorance is the hero of the cataclysm, it is nothing more than new blood compared to the transcendentalists.

However, it was rather surprising to Seo-jun that he was able to deceive Chiron’s senses to this extent.

However, from the point of view of Amseong, who did not know such circumstances, it was a matter of going crazy and jumping.

Seojun shrugged once and said.

“Then what are you doing all of a sudden? No, were you alive before that?”

It is also true that Amseong was in a position to hide from the pursuit of Jinrihoe.

However, as the hero of the cataclysm, Amseong was an opponent that even Jinrihoe could not ignore.

So it was a question that was half joking, and half sincere.

“I have something to tell you about it.”

“To me?”

Darkness nodded and continued.

“Before that… is he okay?”

Seo-joon knew that the guy Amseong was talking about was Min-yul.

And asking like this means that he probably knows what happened in this exchange match.

Seojun nodded slowly.

“They said he had already been discharged to see if there were any major problems.”

“…… Tsk, stupid fellow.”

Then, the darkness clicked its tongue disapprovingly.

If one’s pupil was beaten by someone, where would a teacher like it?

Still, on one side of Amseong’s expression, there was a feeling of relief that Minyul was fine.

“The opponent was not good. Lee Ha-yoon is known as the greatest talent ever in the history of pro hunters, but do you know?”

“Such an arrogant bitch. I have neither heard nor heard of it.”

Seo-joon unknowingly burst into laughter.

It was also because the ignorance called it ‘an arrogant bitch’.

It seemed that I had not only heard the name, but had also encountered it.

However, the ignorance still pretended not to know and opened its mouth again.

“So I told you to focus on one weapon…”

“Min-yul has his own style.”

At Seo-jun’s words, Amseong tutted and clicked his tongue.

Then, he put his hand in his chest and rummaged through it, then handed a few books to Seo-jun.

“What is it?”

“Tell the guy. Because I wrote down a few more things to not get hit somewhere.”

Then the ignorance spoke again.

“I will give you the promised 3 billion sooner or later.”

Seojun raised his gaze and looked at the castle of darkness.

None other than Amseong, who decided to pay Seo-jun whenever he needed help.

Seo-joon stared blankly at the men in his hands again, then spat out words.

“Oh. Mr. Amseong. Did you know that a disciple of Maseong-sama is also here at Dream Academy?”

“If you are a disciple of a devilish bastard… are you talking about Jeong Ji-min? Is he here?”

“no. You have brought in a new disciple other than Jimin.”

“what?”

Darkness opened her eyes in surprise.

And although his eyes seemed to be asking for an explanation, Seo-joon continued to say what he had to say.

“And Maseong-nim gave me 10 billion won for entrusting that disciple to me, right?”

“…?”

At that moment, the head of the dark castle tilted slightly.

“I told Maseong-nim about Amseong-nim. Amseong’s disciples are also in our Dream Academy. And I honestly told you about Amseong-nim’s circumstances and this complicated and delicate relationship with me.”

Then, suddenly, as if he had remembered, Seo-jun asked Amseong.

“Oh, maybe. You shouldn’t tell the demon, right? Maybe I made a mistake…”

“no. It doesn’t matter if it’s demonic, but…”

Seojun nodded as if he knew that and continued talking.

“Anyway, Maseong-nim heard the story. Are you willing to give 10 billion if you can only have 3 billion? Hansako won’t accept it… even though he says he won’t accept it, he’s forced to give it to me. It was not polite to refuse there, so I accepted it.”

Of course, that was a slightly different story from the truth.

However, it was true that Maseong gave Seo-jun 10 billion won.

It was also true that he told the demons about the ignorance.

It was also true that this served as an opportunity for Maseong to entrust Suyeon.

And the reason why Seo-joon brings up this story out of the blue.

“So what do you mean?”

Amseong asked with a hopeless heart.

“No, well… Maseong-nim gave me 10 billion to take good care of my disciple.”

“……”

That’s how I was able to ascend to heaven with the outrageous exodus of the ignorance.

The expression on Amseong’s face was literally that of a guy like this.

There is a degree to being crazy about money.

No, I’m not crazy about money.

It’s just money itself.

Besides, that only didn’t carry a knife, so what’s the difference between a robber and a robber?

The funnier thing was that the target of the robbery was none other than the star of darkness.

What kind of fool in the world would rob a cataclysmic hero?

It was a low-level joke that anyone who heard it would laugh at it, saying it was a new way to commit suicide.

But really surprisingly.

“Ah, but don’t worry too much about it. It just happened.”

There was such a crazy bastard here.

“……”

I had a strong urge to assassinate him without even realizing it.

I even thought that maybe even if I assassinated him like this, this would be self-defense.

maybe.

“This… what’s the situation?”

If this voice hadn’t been heard, the darkness might have been like that.

At the sudden voice, Seo-joon and Am-seong turned their heads at the same time.

And what was shown to those two was none other than the figure of a sword star.

Swordsman looked at Seojun and Amseong alternately.

And soon, the gaze was focused on the darkness.

“……Why are you here?”

His expression began to contort into something indescribable.
