I Became a Student at the Transcension Academy - Chapter 291

Side Story Chapter 8 – Crazy Stranger (2)

The place where Seo-joon crash landed was in the dimension called ‘Astelgia’.

Astelgia.

It didn’t mean anything different.

Just like calling Seo-jun’s dimension ‘Earth’.

This dimension also had its own name that the people of the dimension called it.

That is Astelgia.

To put it simply, it was the name and designation of this dimension.

Astelgia boasted about twice the size of the entire Earth.

However, that was literally only the area, and the land was useful.

So if you only count the land that people can live on, what you can call real land has shrunk.

Of course, even that was an enormous size beyond the Earth.

And the country that rules Astelgia.

It was the ‘Empire of Volunus’ and the country where Cals was the crown prince.

Apparently, at first, several countries, not just the Volunian Empire,

were dividing and ruling Astelgia.

But as time passes, history builds up.

Currently, the continent was unified under the Volunian Empire.

And now.

The city of Pindos, located on the periphery of the Volunw Empire.

“Save me! help me!!”

“Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”

People were running out of breath as if something was being chased.

Medieval European cityscape.

Numerous people poured out in the urban landscape, which is quite different from the earth developed based on science.

A huge shadow was cast over them.

The body of a dragon and the face of an ogre.

Then, grabbing the centaur legs and repeating synthesis and strengthening.

Then, if he crooked in the middle and seemed like a failure, how much could he explain?

In this dimension, it was a monster called Rapis, and of course it was a monster that could not be found on Earth.

Lepis was spinning over the heads of the fleeing people, flapping their wings.

It looked like an eagle contemplating which prey to eat.

“Damn it!”

And seeing Lepis like that, Bernard unknowingly spat out curses. Bernard, an S-class mercenary

who is a high-ranking sword expert

and not many in the empire.

Bernard had been working as a mercenary for a long time, and he had gone through a lot of deaths as well as prenatal battles.

Veterans of War or Beta and Mercenaries.

No matter what you say, it will suffice to describe Bernard.

but.

“Cheukhak…!”

Even Bernard was struggling in front of the Lepis group.

Of course, even though Bernard was an S-class mercenary, not too many in the empire, it was true that

he was the elite of the elite and

lacked compared to the imperial knights, all of whom were sword experts or higher.

But that’s what the Imperial Knights are crazy about.

Bernard’s skills were by no means inferior.

If that were the case, he wouldn’t have earned the title of S-class mercenary.

Even so, Bernard was struggling.

Would it be possible to quell this situation only with a sword master?

‘No… This is impossible even if the sword master comes.’

Bernard shook his head at once.

Lepis, who is rampaging right now.

For each of the lapis, the sword master was enough.

However, the number of lepis rampant in Pindos City was uncountable.

“Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

“Kik! Kihehe!”

Enormous numbers, enough to cover the sky in pitch black.

It was impossible for even a sword master to handle that amount of numbers.

Of course, it was based on the sword master of this dimension, not the transcendent,

but anyway.

At least the 1st Battalion of Imperial Knights, including the Sword Master, had to come.

You cannot solve this situation alone.

There are only two people in the Empire who can solve this situation alone.

Recognized for surpassing the Sword Master.

Sir Vettel, called the Grand Sword Master.

And the emperor, who stands at the top of the empire and

is called the ruler of the dimension, had to come directly to solve the problem.

but.

The two couldn’t come.

This was a city located on the periphery of the Empire, and

above all, this situation was occurring not only here in Pindos, but throughout the Empire.

And what do these facts suggest?

we all

die here

“Keugh…!”

Lepis grabbed the sword he was holding tight.

In order to save people, I had to catch that Lepis.

But Bernard had neither the conditions nor the skills to do so.

“Shit! Shit!”

Bernard just kept swearing at the feeling of helplessness.

“Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-!

At that moment, a horrifying roar erupted from the group of Lepis floating in the sky.

At the same time, Lepis fell vertically from the sky towards the fleeing people.

Bernard threw himself at Lepis without hesitation.

Kwa-ang!

A small explosion exploded and the falling Lepis flew far away.

Thanks to him, he was able to save people, but it wasn’t without a price.

“Cool!”

Bernard’s whole body felt like it was being cut off, and blood poured out of his mouth.

‘Should I run away?’

Bernard couldn’t help but think for a moment.

Bernard is an S-class mercenary.

And by mercenary, I meant a job participating in war for personal gain.

Therefore, for a mercenary, what is important is the allowance, but

what is more important than that is their own lives.

The city of Pindos is over.

So running away is the right decision.

Kwap!

But Bernard did not turn his back.

There was no other reason.

Because Bernard was not an ordinary mercenary, but an S-class mercenary.

And being an S-class mercenary was not something that could be simply based on skill alone.

“Keeeeek! Kik!”

Lepis let out a scream after losing his prey by Bernard.

The rage contained in that roar reverberates through the whole body.

‘I can’t handle it at my level.’

Bernard was quick to admit.

Of course, he could do something about that lapis.

Maybe 2 or 3 would be possible.

However, there were dozens of Lepis flying in the sky over the city.

The troops around him, including Bernard, couldn’t handle it.

The existence that can solve this situation has been decided.

But Bernard knew better than anyone that that was impossible.

“Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!”

Lepis, who found Bernard before he knew it, began to fly with fierce momentum.

“Run!!”

A fellow mercenary shouted at the sight of Lepis.

But Bernard did not move.

“You sick bastard! you are a mercenary! You don’t have to risk your life!”

That was right.

Just a handyman who gets paid and fights instead.

And his instincts, sharpened and polished while serving as a mercenary, were telling him.

tell me to run away

there’s nothing you can do anyway

It’s just a waste of time.

There is only one thing that can solve the current situation.

but.

‘A miracle like that doesn’t happen.’

Bernard knows that better than anyone.

Even so, the reason why the steps don’t fall easily… what the hell is it because of.

“No Bernard!!!”

The desperate voice of a fellow mercenary bursts out.

two eyes wide open.

And

it was then.

Whee-ae-ae-aeae!!

A piercing crackle sounded from somewhere.

at the same time.

Nice——Oh!

A flash of light pierced and the Lepis, which had been flying towards Bernard, exploded.

Literally and literally.

Lepis’ whole body exploded.

“what…?”

At the sudden situation, Bernard opened his eyes wide.

At the same time, a group of Lepis flying in the sky discovered the death of their own people.

“Keeeeek!”

“Kik! Kihehe!”

Before long, the enraged Lepis let out a terrifying roar.

And it’s like he’s going to get revenge.

All at once, they began to fall towards Bernard.

Wedge!

Wedge liquid!

Hundreds of lapis were pouring down all at once, and tremendous pressure erupted.

The creepy pressure of being unable to even move your body.

Right then.

Bounce – Bounce!

As if I could see through that pressure.

A ray of brilliant light burst out.

“……?”

Bernard’s mind was dazed by that sudden light.

And that was true not only of Bernard, but of everyone here.

people who ran away.

And the mercenaries and other troops blocking Lepis.

They all just stared at the scene in front of them with blank expressions.

A group of Lepis pouring down from the sky all at once.

And an unidentified light rushing towards it.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

A collision of tremendous power shook the space.

and.

“Eh eh eh ──!”

With the collision, the group of Lepis were swept away.

“Three goodies!!”

“What nonsense is this…!!”

Astonishment erupted among the people at the overwhelming sight.

The unbelievable sight of hundreds of behemoths being swept away.

This… This…!

Bernard’s bulging eyes did not subside easily.

“Kee-Kee-Eek!!”

Lepis, who had survived the terrible collision, screamed as if frightened.

A movement that seems urgent.

Did you just feel the overwhelming gap in the collision?

The surviving Lepis hurriedly began to fly into the sky.

Right then.

“To use the power of dragon words… It is still difficult.”

A small murmur was heard from somewhere.

At the same time, the eyes of Bernard and others were directed there.

Looking at it like that, there was a man with an atmosphere where it seemed like a screw was missing somewhere.

None other than Seojun was standing there.

Seo-jun stared blankly at the group of Lepis fleeing into the sky.

If he could use the power of dragon words, he could have dealt with it right away.

However, it was still difficult to use the dragon.

Although Beserk’s heart was intact,

it was because he lacked the magic power to support him.

The highest level of language magic,

the power of dragon words that overturns the laws of the world.

If it wasn’t for the magic of Samdanjeon (三丹田), it was a power that I couldn’t even dare.

Fortunately, as the power returned, the three-stage battle was also able to exert its function.

However, the mana that Seo-joon had accumulated in the meantime could not be fully used.

“I need to raise money quickly, I want.”

Seojun shook his head.

Then he took out Gungnir from Kibisis and sighed.

I threw Gungnir as hard as I could without even having time to check the appearance of Gungnir taken out of Kibisis

.

Gungnir, who left Seo-jun’s hand, will rush in scattering the eerie sound of pangong.

but suddenly it crashed.

Suddenly, Gungnir stopped moving in the air.

Eventually, he slowly turned the spear head toward Seo-jun…

It was as if he was staring at Seo-jun.

“Again why! This time, you put your magic power into it too!”

When Seo-jun shouted, Gungnir headed toward Seo-jun as if he were tipping a spear.

It’s like… ‘Don’t leave me like last time! I won’t!’ It seemed like he was rebelling against it.

“……”

Seojun was at a loss for words when he saw Gungnir like that.

That would be the case last time.

It happened when I defeated a group of moneyworm trees with Gungnir.

Seojun used Gungnir to buy some time.

Right after that, I met Aren.

However, due to the swarm of flying spiders, I had to move quickly.

At that time, Seo-joon had not been able to take care of Gungnir.

Later, I retrieved Gungnir, which was lying alone, but…

Kirik! Let’s go!

Maybe it reminded me of what happened then.

Gungnir did not fly away easily, as if in defiance.

“okay! Okay, so catch them quickly before they all run away!”

Seo-joon shouted out of nonsense, and

only then did Gungnir vigorously turn the spearhead.

It’s like ‘really! I promise you!’

woooooong!!

Puff!

Gungnir, who had been shot out, began slaughtering the Lepis group that covered the firmament.

The group of Lepis tried to fight against Gungnir, but Gungnir tore the first giant, Ymir.

Among them, it was a transcendental weapon belonging to the highest level.

Puffup!

“Kee-Kee-Eek!!”

Naturally, there was nothing I could do about Gungnir.

That’s why there was no problem in dealing with the Lepis group.

But there was one very serious and important problem.

“hey! Kill me! The body explodes! They should all be dismantled and sold!”

It was none other than that all the corpses were exploding!

Seojun was frightened and shouted.

But why?

Puff puff puff!

I didn’t eat the words of Gungnir!

That look is like, ‘Oh no! I’ll take care of it, so supply more magic power! Gazuaaaaaaaaa!!’ It seemed to be shouting.

This was enough to convince me that I had a real self.

And it seems that it’s not just Seo-jun’s thoughts.

The mentor in his arms jumped out and shouted.

< Why is he really like that? >

“I don’t know! You must be like the owner!”

Of course, it meant Odin, the original owner.

woooooong!!

Puff!

Gungnir was finally able to return after destroying all the Lepis groups.

The time required for the process was really short.

It was an ambiguous time to say how much.

“How could the group of Lepis be so easily…”

Bernard couldn’t believe the sight at all.

Having experienced the strength of Lepis,

he knew how absurd this was.

This… was only possible for an emperor of an empire.

No, even the emperor of the empire was like this…

Bernard’s head naturally headed there.

People’s eyes also turned there.

good.

“Damn it…”

There, Seo-joon let out a long sigh and was retrieving Gungnir.

Seo-joon looked at Gungnir who had returned with his eyes wide open.

However, Gungnir seemed to say, ‘Cheer up! It seemed like they were shouting ‘It’s too late!’.

The moment Seo-joon was about to say something because his appearance was so absurd.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

Suddenly, great cheers erupted from all directions.

“huh?”

Seo-jun could not hide his embarrassment at the sudden shout.

I slowly turned my head and looked around.

People were looking at Seo-joon with exasperated expressions.

On the other hand, there are people who clenched their fists and cheered.

There were also people who shed tears and bowed their heads.

“What is it? Suddenly this atmosphere.”

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

Even so, the sound of shouts that do not stop.

Similar incidents broke out across the empire one after another.

#

“Now… are you asking me to believe this?”

Hearing Vettel’s cold words, Cedric seriously pondered over how to excuse himself.

To be precise, I was seriously worried about how to explain this situation to Vettel.

The representative of the nobility and

an absolute power next to the emperor.

But now that the emperor is missing.

An existence that is not lacking even if you call it number one.

Reporting to such Vettel always had to be perfect.

And Cedric, as Vettel’s aide,

was only able to deliver perfect reports to Vettel.

But not as much as this moment.

That’s because he had no way to explain what he had been through.

Existing expressions could not fully convey it.

space collapsed?

The world split in half?

Cedric shook his head.

Would you believe it even if you find the perfect expression in the first place? I can’t believe it

even though I’ve seen it with my own eyes

and experienced it myself.

In the end, Cedric made up his mind to compromise with an appropriate explanation line.

“That’s… I think it’s quicker to see it for yourself.”

“…… what?

Vettel’s absurdity evaporated in an instant.

I told you to report it, so you told me to go and see it in person?

“Are you kidding me right now, Cedric? Or have you gone mad?”

“It seems so.”

“What what?”

Then, it was Vettel who was taken aback.

Do you think you’re crazy about yourself?

What kind of crazy shit is this?

“It seems I am out of my mind. Maybe I was unknowingly subjected to mental magic. May I report back to you after meeting the priest?”

“……”

Vettel kept her mouth shut and said nothing.

There was no other reason.

Because I had nothing to say!

Silence fell for a while.

“And before meeting the priest…”

In the midst of that silence, Cedric handed over a small piece of paper.

Vettel took it and confirmed it.

The contents written inside felt almost like a settlement statement.

To be precise, it could be said that it was a request for Seo-jun to pay for his future work.

Vettel confirmed it slowly.

And the amount Seo-joon asked for in exchange for his help was 100 billion gold per case.

Roughly calculated in Korean currency, it amounts to about 1,000 trillion—.

“What what?”

Vettel couldn’t help but doubt her eyes for a moment.

Not a total of 100 billion gold.

100 billion gold per case?

“What nonsense…!”

Vettel’s hands trembled involuntarily.

No, even if it was 100 billion gold in total, it wouldn’t make sense!

100 billion gold per case?!

I’m not crazy about this kind of money!

This is what makes sense!

Cedric’s words were heard in Vettel’s ears.

“They told me to show their ability, so they showed that level of ability, so they asked for that kind of price… That was what this stranger said…”

Flash!

Vettel’s eyes flashed for an instant.

Cedric closed his eyes and shouted.

“And the settlement for monster corpses is separate…!”

“You crazy bastard!”

Whoops!

Vettel roared and tore up the request.

Seeing Vettel notice, Cedric quietly spoke.

“And W, you can show additional abilities here… but then the unit price will increase, so the longer you drag it…”

Quaang!

“Call that stranger right now! Right now!!!”

“Yes yes!!”

Cedric hurriedly disappeared from Vettel’s sight.

And it was later.

Cedric was only repeatedly told by the priest that it was normal.
