I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 48

[ King of Iron Mountain (4) ]

According to the second precept,

“

I do not perceive spirits,” I cannot perceive spirits, but if there is a rare opportunity to communicate with or intervene with spirits, that is ‘possession.’

Among demonic spirits, there are types that can possess objects or living creatures.

For example, in Sevancia Duke’s case, a demonic spirit in this state can interfere with me by possessing a living being.

This case involves a Geist possessing an object. The concept of possessing an object that is not a living thing. In this case, it is ‘home’.

A large villa built in the mountains. A ‘haunted house’ where a family committed suicide and became possessed. What should I do if I want to exorcise a demonic spirit that possesses the house itself?

Simple. Just get rid of the whole house.

Physical demolition is the best solution in most cases.

“Just to confirm, the wizards’ attempt failed, right?”

“Two second-level wizards failed even though they used flame-type magic. They say the magic spirit’s defense was stronger than expected.”

“Well, we probably had to adjust the firepower. It could spread into a forest fire.”

“Yes.”

If you start a fire and burn only the haunted house, the possessed Geist will interfere, but if you increase the firepower, it will spread into a forest fire, and there is no solution.

In the end, the best way to solve the problem with the lowest cost and lowest risk is to enter the inside of the demon’s body and kill the Geist’s main spirit.

“It’s going to be difficult using normal methods. That family is a completely demonized demon cave.”

“Well, it will be resolved quickly. But are you really going to follow me?”

In response to my exciting declaration that I would cut 30 seconds of the haunted house, old man Harmon said he would come along and check it out in person.

He was ready to go with only his combat knuckles on his hands.

“For your information, we do not provide protection.”

“Hmph! Who are you talking to, kid?”

I don’t think I’ve ever seen Old Man Harmon fight in person. Even in the game, it was closer to a skill NPC.

When I was young, I was a veteran knight who even reached the level of a first-level knight, so I’m sure he’ll take care of it.

“Okay. Then get ready….”

He bends down like an athlete preparing to sprint.

The haunted house in my field of vision is just an ordinary old abandoned villa. However, to old man Harmon and the association employees who followed him, it must have seemed like a creepy devil’s den.

Well, it’s none of my business.

“earth!”

-Papak!

Kick off the ground and rush into the haunted house. Old Man Harmon chases after me, but unlike me, who charges forward resolutely, Old Man Harmon is careful about something.

-Cookung!

A tree trunk rose from the ground and lashed out like a whip.

“Now, avoid the attack by jumping and use the spear to cut off the core of the root at the top of the stem! One jump!”

“??!”

Old Man Harmon tilted his head at my commentary that started out of nowhere. What are you so surprised about? It’s just getting started.

“If you push forward and push the window forward, the window on the terrace will break and pieces of glass will fly out. Use the slide to avoid it and enter the door!”

5 seconds.

“When you come back, cut the clock on the upper right and jump and stab three times! Smash the nail sticking out from the bottom of the stairs. There’s no need to look at the top. Let’s go down. Step on the carpet in the middle and step on it once.

-Ujikkeun!

12 seconds.

“There is a desk next to the magic circle in the middle of the basement. If you cut the flying thing in two and break it into two pieces and scratch the magic circle, it will be damaged and its telekinetic power will weaken. If there is a candlestick on the top right, kick it once and use the window to hit Kenaz Plus Hagalaz!”

16 seconds.

“Now, let’s go up the stairs. The door breaks and a picture comes flying out. Poke your evil eyes once to change them into good ones and sprint up the stairs!”

Carve runes from time to time.

“Now! If you come up, the chair and table will come flying at you randomly, so take care to avoid them and I’ll carve some runes on the wall that you can’t move! Next, dishes will come flying. If you touch them, you’ll get the tetanus debuff, so let’s block them!”

21 seconds.

“There is a dressing table on the right. Step in and block it! The chandelier falls, so jump and stab it three times!”

25 seconds.

“Now, there is no more furniture to fly to. Just as you are wondering, ‘What is this guy doing with his eyes wide open?’ I activate the rune magic that I have engraved all at once! Bwaaaaaah!!!!”

Rune magic Kenaz Resonance activated.

“I’m going to take care of the fire now, so get out of the house. Don’t look back during the explosion scene in Real Man’s Special. You can do it like this.”

-Roaring!

30 seconds. Cut!

“Cha-am~ It’s easy, right?”

“………….”

“…………..”

BJ, the legendary star singer who once dominated the Korean Internet broadcasting industry. It was his last strategy.

This video now remains only as a memory.

Haunted House Mission.

In fact, this mission is one of the missions that can only be selected around the second semester.

Like the Special Demon Spirit of the Great Library, Sebancia Duke, this is an optional side quest. By that time, the grade would have been a level 1 demon spirit.

The mission itself is simple.

In order to subdue the level 1 demon possessing the ‘haunted house’, he throws all kinds of household furniture to avoid being attacked and destroys the magic circle of the demon hidden underground, blah blah blah.

However, because this haunted house mission had a pattern that made my blood pressure explode, many people left comments like, ‘I don’t know if this is an RPG or Soullike.’

In any case, it can be said that the ‘haunted house’ is a symbolic mission to prove that the ghosts are dead people.

“Congratulations. In fact, you are almost confirmed to be a semi-first level knight.”

Old Man Harmon congratulated me as if I was the best and patted me on the shoulder.

Now that I have been promoted to Associate Level 1, my authority to receive monthly activity support funds and mission orders will also increase.

Raising your level meant that your authority also increased, meaning you could actively intervene in future scenarios.

“There’s a port city called Sarr nearby. There’s a good restaurant I know there, so let’s have a meal.”

“If you buy it… is it a sashimi restaurant?”

At the same time, it is also where ‘it’ is. This is also the reason why I chose to subdue demon spirits in this area.

“Oh? You know? Do you have any aversion to raw fish?”

“I like that raw fish.”

“Good! Let me introduce you to an awesome raw fish restaurant!”

I glance towards the side of the mountain. A red-faced dog is staring at us.

Okay, I’m following along well.

* * * *

Experimental Building, 4th basement level. In this place, where only a very small number of people can enter the academy, all kinds of monsters and demonic spirits are sealed.

There are all kinds of dangerous demons sealed for experimentation, including the first-class monster, the Demon Dragon, King Tyrant, but if I had to choose the biggest one among them, I would definitely introduce this wild boar.

King of Iron Mountain.

Marie feels like she’s lost her mind when she sees a huge wild boar weighing tens of tons right in front of her.

If it were just the size, Marie would have thought it was just a rather large wild boar. There weren’t any animals bigger than this on the farm.

But what was important was the overwhelming spirit felt from the wild boar.

Its mane of fur, which is a mixture of red and blue like blood, and its skin are as hard as armor, so they don’t seem to be able to even scratch a decent weapon.

Unlike the colorful fur, the tusks were sharply forged as if the blacksmith god had put a lot of effort into tempering them.

“Special monster… ‘King of the Iron Mountain’.”

This is express. This is a monster of a non-standard level that is equal to itself… or perhaps even higher.

The legendary magical beast that devastated the northern Dingle Peninsula 80 years ago was blocked from moving by strong chains made by melting hundreds of tons of magic stones and all kinds of magical seals.

‘It’s like Hwaran…’

Would this be what it would feel like if the scale of the chained nun uniform that restrains Hwaran was greatly expanded?

“Now then, bring the pangboers in first!”

The staff, following Professor Dana’s instructions, dragged the pens containing the trapped fish out of the cage.

In the small cage, the pangboar were barking fiercely, but when they saw Marie, they began to bark and become intimidated.

“For safety reasons, I would like everyone to leave the laboratory except Marie’s student, Professor Permak.”

The employees immediately left the experiment site under Professor Dana’s instructions. Now, all that remains in the vast underground 4th floor cavity are monsters sleeping in all directions and a few humans.

“Student Marie, would you like to dominate the Pangboers first?”

“Ah yes…!”

Marie approached the Pangboers as instructed by Professor Dana.

“come out.”

Open the cage and give orders to the trembling pangboers. Then the pangboers walk out with legs trembling to the point of pitifulness.

“Marie, would you like to try a simple command?”

“yes.”

Marie gave simple orders to the Pangboers as explained in advance. These are simple commands such as sit, stand, run, lie down, etc.

The Pangboers tried to carry out most orders, but some seemed not to be understood and hovered around their seats.

“You don’t hear this very well, do you?”

“We have reached the limit of communication that comes from the difference between demons and monsters. Low-level monsters lack the intelligence to understand student Marie’s commands.”

Even if it is the same animal, it is different. This is because their language systems are similar.

“Professor Permac, please unseal the ‘King’.”

“I understand.”

Following Professor Dana’s instructions, Professor Permak approached the sleeping Majer.

“I will use the unlocking rune to dismantle only the first seal.”

The first seal that seals Majo’s consciousness. Carving the rune to unlock it was quite a bit of hard work.

Rune magic is a magic letter in which the engraved letter itself has a magical meaning. Dozens of runes are engraved on the body and completed into a sentence that has a single meaning.

In modern times when rune writing has become a dead language, there are very few people who can handle this level of rune magic, and Professor Permak was among that minority.

‘I heard that the seal was broken several times over the past 80 years… Then who did it then?’

Even such a small question made me flinch as the runes engraved by Professor Permak activated for a moment.

-Crr…!

Howling like a vicious beast rather than a wild boar. Marge opened her eyes and looked around with ominous blue eyes shining.

-Cra la la la la la la la la!!

Majer’s roar echoed throughout the cavity. At the same time, he flinched and struggled to break the chains that bound him.

“Article 1, Article 3, Article 7, activate the pressure formation! Article 4, Article 6, strengthen the chain of seals!”

Under Professor Dana’s instructions, wizards here and there activated huge magic circles.

When magical energy was injected into the great magic circle for suppressing demons installed in the experiment building on the 4th floor, the chains began to tighten the demons.

-Cookung!

In addition, the pressure magic installed on the ceiling activates and weighs down the spirit.

This magic circle, each of which can be said to be a great magic, has been repaired and repaired for 80 years and has suppressed demons.

“Krr…!”

Perhaps because he decided that he could not be freed by his own strength, he roared. Then the panbore begin to react.

-Gruk…!

-Quite good!

“Student Marie!”

At Professor Dana’s shout, Marie glares at the Pangboers and is ordered to ‘Stop!’ A command that worked before. But the pangboers are acting strangely.

-Pretty cute…!

Although it does not rush towards Marie right away, it is clearly a movement that seems to be resisting. It didn’t take long to conclude that it was attacking Marie.

“joy…!”

When Marie hit the floor with her cane, water came out from all directions and hit the topbore.

Marie subdued three pangboar in an instant. She looked at Dana as if asking her what to do with it.

“Ha~ I guess it’s because it’s from the same wild boar family? Control is lost too easily.”

“What should we do with them?”

“Just knock them out. Let’s make cutlets later.”

“Can I just take a few servings of meat?”

“Sure.”

We were happy for a moment because we had something to cook for the boy. Then, we all flew away.

“Emergency! Emergency! ! A-107 Our monster has escaped!」

“What? No way ! ”

The center of the disturbance is to settle in the test site of the monster that escaped from

us

.

”

A chimera monster with a lion’s body and a snake’s tail that is comparable in size to Majer. It rushed towards Marie. ”

Hmm…”

[Blood spear]

A large number of Icicle lances were formed. Marie fired at him. However, the cunning and nimble Manticore showed an acrobatic jump and escaped the blood spear’s attack range.

“Deokgu…!”

The moment Marie tried to summon Gwonsu, her shoulder Professor Permak grabs hold of her.

“Save your strength.”

Professor Permak, standing in front of her, took off his sunglasses and assumed a boxing stance.

It was strange to fight against a giant monster weighing dozens of tons with boxing that would only work against a human. For a moment, I felt a sense of disconnection.

[Shadow Servant]

A doll (human-shaped) rising through Permak’s shadow. It is a Servant created as a shadow clone, a characteristic of Professor Permak. The

Shadow Servant, who looks exactly like Professor Permak, took a boxing stance as if replicating him.

“ᛟ──Oh my god. ᚱ──Raido.”

In an instant, Professor Permak’s new form disappears. The only person who was able to witness the hyper-accelerated compression movement was Marie, who has monster-like visual acuity. Even in her eyes,

Professor Permak’s speed was difficult to follow with the naked eye. That was about it.

“Guh?”

The manticore looked at Professor Permak, who had already arrived in front of him, and made an incomprehensible expression.

But Professor Permak and his shadow were already out of breath.

[Ducking Boost in Dash.]

It crushes the floor and instantly burrows into the body. Fermak gets under him as the manticore gets under him. At that moment, his left arm penetrates as if it were piercing the sky. [Southpaw Screw Demolition] – Boom! – Boom

!

A

dizzying

noise explodes twice and the internal organs shake. Manticore. A large amount of blood poured out of its esophagus.

-Boom!

One blow. Professor Fermak, who killed the giant manticore with a single blow, wiped his gauntlets, which were stained with fresh blood as he had penetrated the creature’s body and into its internal organs. .

“Professor Dana, something is strange..”

It was the moment when I was about to say something to Professor Dana.

-Craaaaaaaaaaaaaaa……!!!!

Even he let out an unbelievable scream. At that moment, people came from all directions. The monsters reacted to him.

-Kyaaaaa!

-Ssss!

Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssvvvvvvsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssv thoughs respectively. -Kyaaaaa

!

“What what? There was nothing like this in the records!”

Not only that.

“Professor! This is strange! The monsters are slamming into the iron bars like crazy trying to get us out! You have to get out!” It was an

obvious abnormal reaction from the monsters. However, Professor Dana stayed calm. Responded:

“Manual Z-17! Simultaneous operation of cannabis water pressure and blockade magic! First of all, the King of Iron Mountain will also be resealed! Activate the sealing ceremony!”

She responded very well. In the sudden situation, she remembered the manual, applied the magic installed on the fourth basement floor, and decided to reseal Marge, who was likely the culprit of this situation. As this situation occurred

, The re-experiment went awry, but safety was prioritized over the scholar’s academic passion.

However, there was a misfortune that Professor Dana could not figure out.──

“Here is Article 2! The magic circle does not activate!”

“The same goes for the sealing magic circle. Lose! Oh shit! Someone damaged the sealing magic circle!」

“What?!”

Professor Dana burst out in astonishment. But that wasn’t the only thing that caught them off guard.

-Clunk! Clunk!

“Professor Fe Permac! ”

Marie, who witnessed this, urgently looks for Professor Permak. She stretched out her finger toward him with a visibly embarrassed look in her eyes. “Ouch…” Professor Permak’s pupils widened

and

he Inside is the image of Marge.

The ‘King of the Iron Mountain’ of the Dingle Peninsula was chewing on the magic stone chain that was constricting him.

“We have to stop it!” Marie student!”

“Yes…!”

[Crystal Spear]

A huge spear of water created by Marie in an instant. Alchemy magic was added to form a huge frozen lance.

Advanced alchemy magic that is never used on humans. . It struck down at Majer’s defenseless blue fur.

-Kwaang!

The crystal knight’s spear was crushed in the aftermath of the collision. But Majer’s condition was surprisingly intact.

‘It’s strange… There’s no damage like this?’

However, it is clear that Marie’s crystal knight’s spear caught Majer’s attention. The moment his eyes turned to Marie, Professor Permak came right in front of her. Professor Permak threw his strongest punch at Majer’s defenseless body

. .

His fist, which killed even a manticore with a single blow, digs into even its ‘red fur’. -Thump Is

this

what happens when you throw a stone at a rock? Professor Permak’s turning blow was only that much.

“No words . An…”

Mager’s gaze intersects with Professor Permak. The moment those blue eyes turn to him, strange characters begin to appear on the tusk.

“……Rune?”

[ ᚦᚠ──Turisaz Fehu]

-Boom!

A huge amount of heat poured out from the tusk and hit Professor Permak. A

huge amount of heat of light engulfing the underground cavity. The place swept away by the wave of pure mana.

-Truck boom!

– Crackling!

“Oh no.”

Professor Dana’s scream rings out meaninglessly. The chains that were constricting her and the pressure that was oppressing her have been crushed and destroyed. Having

released all the seals that bound her, she is vaguely aware of her surroundings. He looked around and let out a loud roar.

■■■■■■■■■■────!!

Boom! Boom!

Boom! Boom!

The sound of iron bars breaking here and there can be heard. At the command of the special monster. As if to respond, the monsters sacrificed their bodies to fight against each other, and as a result, the cage was destroyed.

“Emergency! Emergency!”

All the monsters sealed in the 4th basement floor cave were released.
