Academy’s Genius Swordmaster - Chapter 76

[ 76. Resuscitation (2) ]

#76

The spiral staircase that leads to the laboratory has appeared. Jarodine opened his mouth while holding onto Ronan’s shoulders.

“We must begin the 144th experiment. Right Now.”

“Now?”

Jarodine turned his back instead of answering. He descended the stairs with a precarious step like a deer with a sprained leg. The essence of fresh blood was still in Ronan’s hands.

“Eight shit.”

Scratching his head, Ronan followed Jarodine. The dark laboratory was still pervaded by the thick scent of roses that smelled of ink and steel.

The glass coffin containing Sunya was shining like a star in the distance. Ronan stepped on the books that were spread like fallen leaves and moved.

“You are late.”

Jarodine, who had arrived earlier, was flipping through his notes like a madman. He held out his hand without looking away.

“Will you give it to me? We must hurry to extract the magic.”

“Wasn’t it all going in?”

“A small amount is enough. It will be over soon, just wait a little bit.”

The worn-out desk was lined with tools previously used to extract magic from Sarante’s ring. Having received the essence of the fresh blood, Jarodine immediately began extracting it.

Indeed, it took less than 10 minutes to complete the job. The separated fresh-blooded mana was pulsating inside the small flask. Taking a deep breath, Jarodin continued.

“Then, we will begin the 144th resuscitation experiment. The experimenter was Jarodine Stonesong. Can you be the test subject?”

Jarodine headed for the glass tube with the two flasks in hand. In the other one, the mana of Sarante extracted from the ring was swaying.

Sunya was still floating in the glass coffin with her eyes closed. She was wearing a dress different from the ones she had seen before.

As Jarodine chanted the spell, the two types of mana from inside the flask were transferred to the inside of the glass tube. The scene unfolded as if red and blue paint had been dissolved. A cracked voice escaped from between dry lips.

“…please.”

Shua- Mana mixed with an unknown liquid and slowly began to permeate Sunya’s body. Jarodine watched it for a long time before turning away.

“I should say this first. thanks.”

“Are you done?”

“no. You have to wait until all the mana is absorbed. Results will be available in about an hour.”

Jardin’s face was a mixture of half hope and half resignation. It was the expression of a person who was aware that this was just one attempt out of countless attempts. said Jarodine.

“I apologize for the military juncture without any hesitation. The fresher the essence of fresh blood, the better.”

“are you okay.”

“Thank you for your understanding. Do you have some time?”

“yes.”

“Then let’s talk for a minute.”

Ronan nodded. There must have been a mountain of things we wanted to ask each other. The two sat side by side on the bed and talked.

“Why are you helping me?”

“I want to.”

“If you don’t want to tell me, don’t ask. Still, I need to hear this one. What did you do to obtain the essence of this mad vampire?”

“What did you know?”

“okay. I couldn’t believe it, but it turned out to be from someone I know.”

“Uh… that’s a bit long, so to speak.”

Ronan briefly described what had happened the night before, with appropriate dramatization, of course. The Bloodhook Conspiracy, the bet with Balzac in the abandoned burial mound. Jarodin’s eyes gradually widened as the story progressed

. Lani is completely insane.”

“If only the results were good, wouldn’t it?”

“By the way Balzac. That vampire is still looking for me?”

“I’m obsessed with it because I completely turned around. What wonderful experience did you give me to become that shape?”

“There are too many to guess, so I can’t answer. It was a fierce battle that wouldn’t be strange even if each other died ten times.”

Jarodine asked a lot of questions to see if he was curious about Balzac’s current situation. Ronan answered as he wanted. Jarodine, who had been listening while touching his chin, opened his mouth

. comes to mind.”

“Suddenly?”

“Yes. I was not afraid of anything. The me of the days when I was mistaken that the world revolved around me.”

“Ronan shrugged his eyebrows. Jarodine suddenly started talking about his past. His youth was like a tree that grew vertically with no side branches. “The Stonesongs were the foremost magical family in the South

. He was a genius that only appeared once a year. Wealth and fame were as natural as the sun rising every morning.”

“It’s very unlucky to say that with your own mouth.”

“Yes. I was arrogant and arrogant. Back then, I treated everyone, including my family, like a goldfish walking on two legs.”

Jarodine was a genius. He solved the challenges that others took on for the rest of his life like blowing his nose into a tissue. He tried to find and challenge people who were known to be strong, but in the end, he ended up laughing at his opponents’ efforts. Around the age of

18 In 2009, everything became trivial and he went on a wandering road. There was nothing like a free mercenary to rampage with his blood. He made a

lot of money because he had skills, but he said he spent it all on alcohol and women that night. Ronan said his story. I was completely immersed in. I felt a lot of kinship in the trashy move

.

“I won’t deny it. If I hadn’t met these two women, I’d probably still be living like that.”

“One will be your wife. Who is the other?”

“Butterfly Rose. You are familiar with the monster.”

The first time the two met was in the southern jungle. At that time, Navi Rose was also a free mercenary like Jarodin, but it was funny that it was the request of the requesters to catch each other. He said that he had a very different personality

.

“Damn it, our instructor? Looks like you blew it.”

“Balzac was rather meek. The students should have seen the monster pierce a hole in a palm fruit with his pinky finger and drink it.”

Jarodine shook his head in disgust, and he described his mortal struggle with Navirose for nearly half an hour, a tidal wave of boulders

filling the lake and hundreds of trees being decapitated with each great sword blast. The duel that started at noon ended only in the middle of the night, and the winner was Naviroze

.

“…You flew more than I thought.”

“It was expensive even for the tuition for learning humility. If it wasn’t for Sunya who heard the sound and came to visit me, I would have really become food for the beasts.”

Sunya was an aborigine living in the jungle. She took Jarodine, who had become a half-ass, to her village and nursed him for almost a year. It was a strange situation not to fall in love. It became unimaginable:

“I couldn’t eat alone and slept on a bed made of straw. But looking back, those were the happiest times.”

The two naturally became lovers, and eventually got married with the blessings of the natives. Jarodine, who had recovered perfectly, immediately took Sunya back to the Stonesong family. It was good so far. Suddenly, a shadow fell on Jarodine’s face.

” The problem is, I was an idiot.”

However, the gazes around Sunya were never nice. The family treated her more like a curious exhibit than the wife of Jarodine Stonesong. Of course, Sunya didn’t mind that kind of contempt. She loved her husband as always. The problem

is It was Jarodine, he wasn’t offended by those who asked such questions, the main voice coming from Jarodine’s lips: ”

…I’m starting to feel ashamed of my wife.”

“What the fuck.”

Ronan nearly drew his knife. There were about ten minutes left until the experiment was over. Jarodine continued, “People often ask me why I got married. I gave a different answer each time. Friendship with the natives.

” For some magical research… Several questions and answers were conducted in the presence of my wife.”

Every time it happened, Jarodine apologized to his wife, handing her her favorite rose. Sunya always smiled like an idiot and said it was okay. Jarodine didn’t even say she was sorry now that she was dead

. When he came back from work, he was dead.

“You don’t know why he died?”

“I don’t know. It wasn’t a soldier or a viper. I couldn’t figure out the cause of death.”

No matter what method was used, the cause could not be determined. What happened next was the same as what Ronan had seen in his diary.

He was throwing everything to revive his wife. Jarodine closed his mouth after the story. Ronan spit on the floor. He spat out and

stood up.

“I will not deny it.”

“Then are you trying to bring your wife back to reveal the cause of death?”

“Of course there is that. I have to apologize. But the biggest reason is to answer the question that has been asked so many times. Why did you marry her?”

“What are you going to say?”

“First I’ll punch whoever he is, I’ll punch him in the face. Then…”

Jarodine, who had been dragging his horse, raised his head and looked at Ronan, eyes red and bloodshot deep in his sockets. Lose.

“I will answer that I just got married because I love you.”

Ronan said nothing, then a bell rang signaling that an hour had passed. At the same time, the two of them turned their heads to look at the glass coffin. Jarodine’s face

hardened

. There was no mana in sight. Sunya still had her eyes closed. After watching for another five minutes, Jarodine stood up. He put his hand on the glass coffin and muttered softly, “…Failed.

”

Jarodine’s expression was calm. He stepped to the desk and collapsed into his chair. Before long,

the sound of a feather pen screeching in the silence was heard. He must have been writing about his 144th failure. “Damn it…”

In

a way, it was only natural. Although he used a grandiose material, this was just one attempt out of countless. Ronan turned around and was about to start the car. Suddenly, a strange sound sounded in his ears. Tickled.

– Boogle.

“Hmm?”

Ronan looked back, his eyes widening at the same time, and Ronan, barely holding back the urge to scream, called out to Jarodine, who was scribbling on the report. “…Jarodin?

”

“Why but.”

“I think you should come and see this.”

Jarodine slowly turned his head, Ronan pointing at the glass tube with his eyes wide open, his eyes met Sunya, the quill in his hand fell to the floor, “…my God.

”

Jarodine got up. He couldn’t stand up at once, perhaps because his legs were weak. He fell three times while approaching the distance of less than five steps. Eventually, he reached the glass tube and sat down on the floor. Transparent tears stopped

. He was riding down the cheeks of Zaro Dean without a bird. He shook his head with the glass pavilion. The slender shoulders began to shake. “Ah … Ah

…. ”

.The interval between occurrences was as stable as breathing. There was a faint blood color in the body that had been pale as

lead

. I started working on my research like crazy again

. Because it’s different from before.’

The 144th attempt at resuscitation was not a failure. Sunya began to breathe again and began to function as a living being.

However, he could not open his eyes as if his consciousness had not yet returned. Whether Jarodine really succeeded in reviving a person fully remained to be seen.

All the way through the campus, Ronan remembered the story of Jarodine and Sunya. It was a story that made people’s hearts complicated.

‘They said they got married because they fell in love.’

Ronan returned to the dormitory as it was. It seemed that the sleep that had come was running away. I was about to enter the building when I heard a familiar voice from behind.

“Ronan.”

Ronan turned his head. A tall girl stood with her back against the wall of a building. In her hand was a coat worn by martial arts departments. Ronan smirked.

“Adeshan?”

“Yes. It’s not been a long time… It’s only been a day.”

“What’s going on here?”

“The morning star of the empire was looking for you, so I came just in case. They said something about moving.”

“Moving?”

“Yeah. He said it was very urgent. He asked me to come to the club building quickly.”

“Thank you for telling me something else.”

I wanted to ignore it, but it wasn’t the subject. Ronan was about to turn. I grabbed his sleeve,

“Wait a minute.”
