I Became a Student at the Transcension Academy - Chapter 215
Chapter 215 – Encounter (1)
[You can’t just think of magical power. The completeness of the pre-interruption must be fully considered.]
[Before the interruption? Are you talking about the circle?]
The three transcendentalists continued their heated discussion.
Seo-joon watched their discussion for a while and then came out of the cave.
Even inside, there was nothing I could do.
Above all, after listening to the mentor’s words,
I didn’t have the confidence to stay inside.
Seeing them just discussing without any work, it felt like they were throwing money into the air.
Of course, he knew that it was a necessary process to properly purify Beserk’s heart.
I know it clearly in my head.
‘Ah, my money…’
But I just couldn’t bear to watch the scene with my eyes open.
But Beserk’s heart was worth it.
Not only was he able to use the power of dragon words, but
he was also able to solve the long-awaited lack of magical power.
In addition, judging from past experiences,
it was clear that the progress of the lecture would rise explosively.
‘Instructor Siegfried’s middle class lecture seems to be completed without incident.’
Is it simply graduation?
There was also a very high possibility that Seo-jun’s heart would awaken as the ultimate end of the dragon heart stop battle.
Maybe…
there was a possibility that Lu Dongbin’s Hadanjeon (下丹田) would be completed.
Then all of a sudden
‘But… it’s not like I can’t finish it in time, right?’
Seo-joon trembled at the sudden thought.
The money currently in balance is 145 trillion.
In a word, the allowed time was 145 hours.
145 hours is approximately 6 days.
If it can’t be purified within 6 days…
Seo-joon hurriedly shook his head.
Because it was a terrible idea that I didn’t want to imagine.
anyway.
I don’t know, but it would take at least a day or more.
“I don’t know if the team members are doing well.”
Seo-joon’s smile leaked out.
Resurrection in the crematorium? Since it suddenly disappeared after a while, it was probably embarrassing and absurd.
“…… Seoyoon-sshi must be very angry?”
For some reason, Seo-joon felt chills.
With that in mind, the thoughts continued to bite their tails.
Then all of a sudden
‘Come to think of it…’
Right after Seo-joon came out of the boundary room.
I remembered hearing a faint voice.
Seojun recalled the memory of that time.
‘I think I was told to be wary of observers.’
I think he said something else…
I can’t remember.
‘Who the hell was that?’
And just then.
< What are you doing here? >
I suddenly heard the voice of my mentor.
“I was just… thinking about this and that.”
Then, Seo-jun asked the mentor with a tone that he had arrived well.
“Mentor. Aren’t the observers just benevolent towards me?”
< Uh... that's it... >
Then the mentor evaded his words with a puzzled expression.
Seo-joon looked at such a mentor and said.
“Is it because of the oath from the beginning you said last time?”
The mentor nodded with a sullen expression.
< Yes... I really want to tell you too! really! Really, I'm dying of frustration! >
The mentor rolled his feet as if he was really angry.
< But if Seojun Kim transcends, you will know the whole truth! Eat this Dragon's Heart! Transcend one day soon! Aaaaaaaaa! >
the mentor shouted, clenching both fists.
Seo Joon let out a small sigh.
“I don’t know when I will be able to transcend.”
< What are you talking about! Where is a freshman who grows up fast like Kim Seo-joon! You are already taking advanced lectures! >
“Advanced lectures are not the end. They say that the real beginning is after completing the advanced lectures.”
< I do, but... >
the mentor continued, scratching the back of his head.
< It's my personal opinion, but I think Kim Seo-joon will soon transcend it . < Because Kim Seojun-nim is the most insane among the existence of the transcendent academy! >
“…… Is that a compliment or an insult?”
< It's an insult! >
Why are you so confident?
Seojun just shook his head.
Then he slowly turned his gaze and looked straight ahead.
The scenery of the Grand Canyon, where the ocher-colored cliffs continue endlessly.
Just like that scene, Seo-jun’s situation also seems like a fight with no end in sight.
Above all, what will be at the end of this road?
Will I be able to reach the realm of transcendence someday?
Even if you can reach the realm of transcendence.
What awaits you next.
What is the truth of all of this?
“……”
Why?
My heart went numb.
“Ac.”
Seojun took out his smartphone.
When I was in a mess,
the Shakyamuni lecture was the best.
I’ll have time anyway.
While Beserk’s heart was being refined, it didn’t seem like a bad idea to attend the overdue lectures.
‘Because I have to complete the upper part of the middle and lower part as well.’
Then, you will reach the stage of a complete three-way battle.
Seo-joon immediately took out his smartphone.
And access the Transcendent Academy.
After selecting Shakyamuni Lecture from My Lecture, ‘Continue to take the lecture.’ I pressed the button.
Hold on.
《The member’s free pass usage period has expired.》
However, a notification window suddenly popped up and the Shakyamuni lecture did not play.
“huh? Why is this… Ah.”
Seojun nodded.
Come to think of it, after the license expired in the UK.
I did not purchase a free pass pass.
As soon as I came to the United States, Lucas ripped off 50 trillion… no, I did.
However, all of that was evaporated with the Power Lecture.
‘Come to think of it, I made 200 trillion in the US alone.’
However, out of that 200 trillion, 55 trillion was spent.
Besides, 1 trillion per hour was being spent now.
“……”
Suddenly, a great sense of desolation came over me.
However, I quickly shook my head and checked the price of the free pass.
《￦ 150000000000》
The confirmed price is 150 billion won.
‘Is it cheap?’
huh? cheap?
Seo-joon paused at the sudden thought.
Isn’t 150 billion won by no means a cheap price?
However, it felt relatively cheap because other expenses were so outrageous.
Seojun bought the free pass ticket without much hesitation.
Well… it was true that 150 billion was cheap compared to the money I had.
‘But surely the instructors won’t be summoned because of this?’
It was right before taking Beserk’s heart, just like in the case of the last time.
‘Um… I don’t know.’
Seojun decided to go there and think about it.
Soon after, Seo-joon pressed the button to take the course again.
Hold on.
.
.
[Most beings aren’t that generous with themselves.]
As expected, something that seemed like it would go crazy came out.
[Rather than saying I’m doing well to myself, ‘I’m trash.’ It’s easier to say.]
It’s been a while since I heard Shakyamuni’s lecture.
It was the lecture of Shakyamuni that never changes no matter when I listen to it.
[Even if you hear positive words or comfort, it all sounds fake.]
[Existence is the heart. It will be like a reed that is always shaken.]
[Today, I want to tell you an interesting story for such people.]
Shakyamuni continued.
[There is a plant called bamboo in the dimension of earth where the monks lived. It is a plant that would be a shame if the second child went upright.]
[This kind of bamboo takes 5 years to fully grow.]
[And you have to water and fertilize it every day for 5 years to grow it. [
But bamboo never comes out of the ground during the 5 years when its growth ends.] [
After growing in the ground for such a long 5 years, once the bamboo comes out of the ground.] [
Bamboo does not know when it did that . It grows up to 80 ships in just one month.]
80 ships are about 27m.
In other words, it grew by 1m in one day.
[Then I will ask.]
[Did the bamboo grow in a month? Or did he grow up in five years?]
Sakyamuni continued with a gentle smile.
[Of course, 5 years.]
[If the person who watered and fertilized the bamboo stopped doing that at any time. Bamboo must have withered in the ground.]
[Life is like this too.]
[A gloomy future that can’t be seen. A boring routine that repeats
itself every day.] [Uncertainty about what we do always entangles us.] [It
is our lives that we do not see immediate results even though we work hard.] [Like
bamboo.]
[ If someone else sees someone growing bamboo, they’ll laugh at it for being stupid.]
[Bamboo doesn’t come out of the ground, but every day. Giving water and manure to the bare ground without any meaning.]
[But in the end, it was the beings who silently gave water and manure.]
[Even if you seem insignificant right now, be sincere in what you do. It will be a true asset in the changing fortunes of the years.]
[Do not put a period in a comma that was put in for a while.]
.
.
“Anyway…”
It was a lecture that seemed like it would go crazy whenever I listened to it.
#
Time passed quickly.
And Seo-joon has been steadily attending lectures that have been delayed.
Therefore, the current progress of Seojun’s lecture was as follows.
《Shakyamuni Lecture Progress 72.7% (+1.1%)》
《Lu Dongbin Lecture Progress 58.3%(+4.2%)》
《Siegfried Lecture Progress 79.9%(+1.3%)》
《Atlas Lecture Progress 67.6%(+13.9%)》
《T Alphy River progress rate 44.6% (+20.3%)
《Satan River progress rate 29.9% (+0%)》
[Cheonwol Meteor Spear completion rate 50.5% (+28.7%)
] Achievement rate 51.9% (+0%)]
{Lectures completed – Reverse divergence [A] Phantasmal metamorphosis [A] Insight [S] Divinity [S] Celestial Emperor – Neighborhood Heodo [S] Jecheon Grand Seongsik – Rannachal [S] Morale [ S].}
.
.
Overall, it was an evenly increased rate of progress.
Among these, one thing worth pointing out
was that the Satan River, the lecture of power, did not go up.
30% of the progress needed to reach the state of Fa-Gyeong.
Only 0.1% remained, but it did not rise.
‘I almost got into trouble at Eldritch.’
Seo-joon let out a smile.
And one more thing.
[It’s finally finished!]
Beserk’s heart, which he had longed for, was completed.
Seo-joon accepted Beserk’s heart from Hwa-ta.
Outward appearance did not change much.
However, instead of the terrible feeling, there was a clear energy somewhere.
It feels as if the essence of nature has been dragged and put together.
In addition, the amount of mana he felt was much stronger than before.
It seemed that it was because the three transcendents had replaced all the effort and essence.
I knew it.
The face of Paracelsus, who looked at Hwa-ta and Pyeon-jak, was very haggard.
[Hurry up and try it.]
[It’s the heart of a dragon where all our essence is concentrated.]
But their eyes were shining brightly.
Paracelsus continued with a look full of pride.
[Perhaps there is no elixir like this in all dimensions. Even if it’s the ultimate elixir, it’s not enough—.]
Right at that moment.
Paracelsus’ voice stopped speaking.
“huh?”
I looked at it because I thought it was strange, but Pyeonjak and Paracelsus were nowhere to be seen.
[What…?]
All I could see was a bewildered figure.
“ah.”
Only then did Seo-joon understand the situation.
It seemed that he was reverse summoned because he ran out of money.
However, it seemed that Hwa-ta was still there because he only made 10 billion won per hour.
I didn’t know why the word ‘outside’ was added after 10 billion per hour, but anyway.
In a word, it meant that Seojun’s current balance had fallen to less than 1 trillion won.
‘…… shit.’
In an instant, a great sense of despair came over me.
[Quickly! Let’s eat quickly!]
Hwa-ta also shouted urgently, as if he had grasped the situation.
Seojun looked at Beserk’s heart in his hand.
A heart the size of a basketball.
“Can I just chew and eat it?”
[Yes! hurry! Come on, let’s eat!]
Seo-joon laughed without realizing it at Hwa-ta’s annoyed answer.
Then,
without hesitation, he took a bite into Beserk’s heart.
Well well.
The taste… was just okay.
The feeling of eating the heart along with the texture.
Because of that, there was nothing special about it other than a little groaning.
And the aura I feel.
Seo-joon continued to bite his heart.
Wow.
Well well.
That’s how all the heart disappeared into Seo-joon’s mouth.
And just then.
Rurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
In an instant, fierce flames soared from the lower court.
As if the sun had just begun, great heat surged through his body.
and.
Kudo deuk!!!
A bizarre sound began to emanate from Seo-joon’s heart.
At the same time, the circle next to Pajik’s heart began to break.
“Kuhup…!”
Seojun could not stand the pain and groaned.
Is this… is it okay?
Seo-joon managed to raise his gaze and looked at Hwa-ta.
[Oh oh oh…!!! This is…!!!]
Hwata’s expression was tinged with shock and shudder.
Fortunately, it didn’t look like anything went wrong.
‘But this…!’
then again
Ku-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-gung…!!!!
An inexplicable wave of immense power burst through Seo-jun’s body.
It was more powerful than anything Seo-joon had ever seen or felt.
Quagga gagagak!
The entire cave was torn apart by an uncontrollable force.
Seo-joon was unable to do anything because he was crushed by the bursting force.
“Cheuk…!”
Terrible pain ran through his whole body.
My mind went dizzy and my consciousness went farther away.
and then it’s over
dump.
Seo-joon lost his mind.
#
The world was still seething with stories about Seo-joon.
Humanity’s strongest hunter who raided even death.
People couldn’t help but be enthusiastic about the name Kim Seo-joon.
Above all, what happened at the crematorium was truly spectacle.
If you come after raiding death, you say, ‘I’m busy with something, so I’ll be back!’ was
What kind of bizarre situation is this?
In addition, as the dream team’s absurd interview video became a hot topic, the popularity of Seo-joon did not know how to cool down.
but.
A day or two after Seo-jun disappeared like that.
Now, a week has passed.
There was no news from Seo-joon.
By this point, people were starting to get anxious.
As a result, all sorts of speculative articles began to flow.
《What is the busy work he said?》
《Another disaster following the devil?》
《Now is the time to prepare for the situation that Kim Seo-joon faced.》
.
.
And now.
“I really…”
Risbury, who was reading the article, let out an absurd laugh.
Risberry, director of the U.S. Pro Hunter Bureau.
He was a hero of cataclysm, called a demon hunter in the past.
Risbury skimmed through the article on his smartphone.
“There is no such thing as this.”
“What do you mean?”
At Risberry’s words, Lucas, deputy director of the US Pro Hunter Management Bureau, asked with a curious expression.
“This article.”
Risbury pointed her finger at the article she was reading.
《Now is the time to prepare for the situation that Kim Seo-jun might have suffered.》
“Why is this like this?”
In response to Lucas’ question, Risbury looked at you as if asking why.
“Let’s assume that Kim Seo-joon was beaten by someone like in this article. Whether it be a monster or a human.”
“So what?”
“Do you think we can handle its existence?”
“……”
Lucas was momentarily speechless.
It was because he knew well how strong Seojun was.
I couldn’t even guess exactly.
Can we win even if all the heroes of Cataclysm stick together?
Lucas was skeptical.
It is not a waste to say that he is the strongest hunter of mankind.
Any monster, any calamity.
If I put the name Kim Seo-joon next to it, everything was okay.
But an enemy strong enough to defeat such Seo-jun appeared?
He had to wait for the end of the entire earth,
not Seo-jun .
“That too… I see.”
“You can’t talk in the first place. I want to write something like this as an article.”
Lisberry nervously turned off her smartphone.
And just then.
“okay? You mean that guy?”
Startle.
A strange voice came from somewhere.
Risbury’s and Lucas’ heads jerked at the same time.
Looking at it, there was an Asian standing there.
A face that Risberry has never seen before.
“Who are you?”
Risbury asked, raising her tension.
He didn’t even feel the presence approaching.
even a sign.
aura too.
I didn’t recognize any of them until I heard a voice.
If there was an intention to kill, Risbery would have died without doing anything.
“Who I am… you probably wouldn’t even know? So let’s just move on.”
But that Asian didn’t seem to have such a mind.
“Rather than that, I heard that there is a freshman named Kim Seo-joon here. Do you know where it is?”
“Why are you looking for him?”
“Oh, it’s nothing special. I have something to tell you.”
Risbury stared blankly at the Asian’s face.
But I couldn’t catch any hint of it.
Risbury opened her mouth slowly.
“I do not know.”
“I don’t know? Hmm… This is a bit difficult.”
The Asian continued with a troubled expression like the contents.
“I don’t have much time. I came here after working hard, but shouldn’t I also have something to gain and go to?”
He was silent for a while, as if he was in trouble.
But Risbury and Lucas couldn’t act rashly.
“I can’t help it. Originally, I was going to tell only what to deliver, but I’ll just wait here until he comes.”
And again.
“But it’s a waste of time to just wait…”
That moment.
“……!”
“……!”
The Asian’s new style disappeared from sight in an instant.
and momentarily
Kwajik!
“Quaaaaagh!”
Lucas’s screams broke out with an eerie destructive sound.
A movement that cannot be seen or felt.
“At some point…!”
Risbury’s eyes widened.
A fishy voice flowed into Lisberry’s ears.
“How many causality do you guys have?”
