The Reincarnated Person Became a Professor at the Academy - Chapter 11
The Reincarnated Person Became A Professor At The Academy 11
11 – Become My Disciple.
“…….”
A strange silence enveloped us.
Yoo Eun-chae rolled her eyes at me for a moment.
“H-hahahaha! Just kidding.”
“…….”
“Just kidding?”
“Surely not.”
I looked at Yoo Eun-chae with my arms crossed.
This guy isn’t just suspicious about one or two things.
At first, I thought he might just be somewhat knowledgeable about information, but judging from the reactions of Wolgongbingcheon and a man named Abel, he was more than that.
“At first, I thought it was either Guumjeolmaek or Bingryeongjiche.”
That peculiar feeling of his condition was present in this guy.
It was a bit ambiguous, but I thought I could figure it out by examining Yoo Eun-chae’s body and teaching him magic.
That’s why I brought Yoo Eun-chae with me.
I had a considerable debt to Wolgong, so I had thought I would teach Wolgongbingcheon if possible.
But now, I feel extremely embarrassed.
The character of Yoo Eun-chae is not just ordinary; he acted as if he knew the secrets of the world.
He seems to not properly understand the value of the information he possesses, and he acts as if he is restless to reveal his own information.
As if trying to prove her worth to “me.”
However.
The information this woman knows is too excessive.
Thinking about the power of the one called the Vampire Princess or the authority of the one called Abel, if it weren’t me, I might have lost a finger there.
“Above all, she knows me.”
That’s the biggest problem.
I am a reincarnator.
I lived the life of a great wizard, and was even called the Emperor of the Martial World, but this world doesn’t seem to have much connection to me.
I did some basic research on the computer at the motel, but the factions were strangely different.
I don’t know the me of the fourth life in that world, but do I know the me of the second life?
“Extremely suspicious.”
As soon as I used the Moonlight Ice, I knew it was the Moonlight Ice.
And one of the things Yu Eunchae said.
“Th-this is really dangerous, isn’t it?! Ahh! I was still trying to cherish this, the Hyukjak…”
She cut herself off in the middle of her sentence, but it was easy to guess what she was going to say next.
“Hyukjak Yeomhwa.”
The flame that encompasses everything inspired by the flames embraced by the World Tree.
If the Moonlight Ice consumes the user’s life, then Hyukjak Yeomhwa is a magic that breathes life into the user.
Yu Eunchae mentioned that.
The flame that breathes life and the Moonlight Ice are a pair of magic.
Understanding those two powers implies a connection with me, whatever that may be.
Who are you exactly?
“…Well, is there a quiet café or something around here?”
I looked at Yoo Eunchae.
After living through about three lifetimes, you get a sense of what the other person is going to say.
‘She wants to resolve it through conversation.’
I also enjoy conversations.
But most people around me talk in a way that doesn’t make sense, breaking my head, making me afraid.
I am someone who, unlike the medieval savages, tends to resolve things through conversation.
And, with the eyes called “Cheonan” in my possession, I can even tell if she’s speaking lies or truth.
‘But if she lies, then I really have to kill her.’
*
Yoo Eunchae and I headed to a nearby café.
We booked a room and sealed it off.
As if about to say something tremendous, Yoo Eunchae took out an artifact.
“This is an artifact that blocks our sound from going outside.”
“Artifact?”
“Oh, this is something obtained in dungeons in a different dimension. It refers to things superior to just artifacts.”
“And what are artifacts?”
“If you know it as a magical item made by humans, it’s convenient.”
Yoo Eunchae said that much and ordered two coffees.
Plus two slices of cake.
“I have to order various things because this place is a bit expensive.”
From Noble mtl dot com
“Oh, really? In that case, a cola.”
“…No, they don’t sell cola here?”
“Then, give me one with cherry on top.”
After a while, the drinks and cakes arrived.
The staff set the cakes and drinks on the table and left.
“Where should I start?”
Yoo Eunchae said with a somewhat serious expression.
I made a somber expression and replied.
“Tell me briefly.”
At my words, Yoo Eunchae puffed up her cheeks.
Where is she pretending to be cute?
She blinked her eyes, licked her lips, and said, “Do you believe in past lives?”
“…Past lives?”
I was momentarily taken aback.
“I’ll be straightforward without beating around the bush. Anyway, I have to know about you.”
Yoo Eun-chae said that and took a deep breath.
“Well, since we’ve come this far, there’s nothing more to hide. I am a reincarnator.”
“A reincarnator?”
A rather surprising answer came.
*
“Whether you believe it or not, this world is a world within a game.”
Starting with a shocking statement, even more shocking words followed.
“A world within a game?”
“Well… to be more precise, it’s a world within a game that imitates reality. I definitely think of it as a game, molding my life here… or not.”
Eun-chae’s unnecessary muttering made me lose interest.
‘A world that imitates reality.’
Come to think of it, this system guy seems like a game.
Forcibly getting stronger when the stats rise in the status window.
Like how the Eternal, referred to as a unique trait, forcefully bestowed attributes to my magic power.
However, I strangely had a different thought.
‘No, is that too speculative?’
I tend to trust my instincts, but this seems too speculative.
But speaking of the system.
‘It’s quite an interesting power.’
While the Nokgwi and Hwaksa were just ordinary abilities, Abel’s bloodline and Ha Yoon-ji’s brilliance were different.
Abel’s lineage was an ability that could boast exceptional strength, even if the perpetrator was a criminal. And Hayunji’s brainwaves, I think, have some usefulness as well.
Especially when martial arts or magic intersect with the system and unique characteristics.
“I’ll probably be able to handle most things.”
A direct confrontation would be incredibly difficult.
“Anyway, that’s the story. I was obsessed with a game that imitated this world, and I ranked first there. It’s like I became the person I admired.”
“Is that so?”
“How did I know about Wolgongbingcheon…? It’s the greatest magic in this world. Hyukjakyeomhwa and Wolgongbingcheon. Someone used these two to defeat the Demon King.”
“….”
No matter how you look at it, this seems like my story.
“The Demon King?”
“Yes. The king of the demon realm. There was a mage who achieved an impossible feat, even with a gathering of extraordinary transcendents.”
“…I see. They must be quite remarkable.”
“Yes, they are incredibly remarkable.”
Yoo Eunchae looked straight at me.
She had said her piece, now it was as if she was asking me to talk about myself.
“There are no lies in my words.”
That’s for sure.
My only weakness is in human relationships, but I don’t necessarily go back on my words. I have a straightforward personality.
Yoo Eunchae is speaking the truth right now.
Well, there may be things she’s hiding.
That’s the level of tolerance I can accept.
Tap. Tap.
I closed my eyes and tapped the table with my fingers.
“I told you not to lie.”
…This is a bigger deal than I thought.
Something so out of place.
Previous life.
To put it simply, Yoo Eun-chae is a hardcore gamer, and the game is based on this world.
I know how absurd the fact is, having been a pro-gamer once.
Especially in RPG, the value of that information is beyond belief.
“To put it simply.”
Yoo Eun-chae should never be turned into an enemy.
If she becomes an enemy, she is someone you must kill.
…That’s what you must be thinking.
Looking at her smug expression, I felt the urge to grab her by the collar.
“Hmm….”
To be honest.
If I were to express my true feelings.
“There’s no need to be afraid, is there?”
Because reality and thoughts are different.
Talking about the past life to me is also like that, without any guilt.
From the recent fight to the battles against Nokgui and Black Salang, it’s the same.
Although there is always an impression that he leaves behind an extraordinary move…
‘That’s about it.’
From an objective standpoint, it’s unlikely that he would be overshadowed by Nokgui or Black Salang in terms of abilities.
Even when fighting Abel, he couldn’t choose his position and was thrown around.
‘Having this kind of person close might be dangerous.’
Speaking while taking various poses, but the content is too substantial.
Or maybe it’s not there at all.
Because of the grace of Wolgong, I thought about teaching him once.
‘Is the burden too heavy?’
But if raised well, it seems quite okay.
‘Ma Wang.’
And the worlds of my past lives spoken by Yoo Eun-chae.
If you combine them, maybe.
‘I might meet the Extermination Lord again.’
Yoo Eun-chae is dangerous. But I have one goal.
I decided and opened my eyes.
Yoo Eun-chae’s eyes, which look confident, but faintly anxious.
“You.”
“Yes.”
*Gulp*—Yoo Eun-chae swallowed her saliva.
“Become my disciple.”
“…………………………………………………………………………………Yes?”
Yoo Eun-chae replied with a vacant expression.
*
“That was risky.”
A gentle, soothing voice.
At the end of the corridor appeared a figure in a black dress. Her shining silver hair fluttered, adorned with a parasol-shaped umbrella.
Crimson eyes.
Jinjo.
The original vampire.
The inaugural bloodsucker.
The princess born from them.
─That is the vampire princess.
“That was… risky.”
Cough.
Abel coughed out blood, trying to forcibly rise and compose himself.
“Stop and focus on recovering.”
Thud.
As if a machine had come to a halt, Abel ceased his unnatural movements and focused on recovering.
Under the robust command imprinted in the vampire’s blood, Abel’s body involuntarily began to take a rest.
“Thank you.”
“For what?”
“How was it?”
“…It’s a monster.”
Abel spoke of what he felt.
It was a monster.
The ability gained from the system’s blood.
Blood Realm.
He casually imitated it, as if mimicking it with ice magic.
‘No.’
It’s definitely not at that level.
Having used Blood Realm until now, he could tell. It wasn’t just a mimicry of the Blood Realm.
The structure, power, scope of the Blood Realm.
He replicated it all.
So, it’s incomprehensible.
There have been several attempts to dismantle the ability so far.
If the power of the system is combined with its unique characteristics, it boasts a formidable force that can push aside the martial world and magical realm.
Although the beings above them, the ‘Transcendents,’ are not moving.
Less than fifty years have passed, surpassing the history of the millennium-old forest and the history of the millennium-old mausoleum.
That’s why the hermits, alchemists, and sorcerers tried to analyze their unique characteristics.
They all failed.
He succeeded.
“He’s an extremely dangerous being.”
That’s why he’s dangerous.
The existence that succeeded in what no one else has is a threat to them.
As Abel thought of Han Seojin,
The vampire princess was also thinking of Han Seojin.
What he showed was equally shocking. Following Abel’s bloodline.
And.
“That boy.”
She definitely recognized herself.
Her gaze was on Abel, but for a moment,
She could sense his mana very faintly directed towards her, thanks to one of her abilities, natural empathy.
“He marked me.”
She reassessed herself. Assessed the measure of strength for a moment.
And that boy saved Abel.
Up to that point, there was no problem.
The vampire princess didn’t want to meddle with the eldest son of the Crimson Blood Clan for no reason.
Though he was abandoned, killing him posed a different problem.
Dying was more troublesome than returning alive to the Crimson Blood Clan.
“Abel.”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
“It’s an order. Do not fight that man again.”
“…Understood, Your Highness.”
Abel bowed his head.
Her orders were absolute to Abel; he would never fight again.
The vampire princess turned away.
“Not a problem.”
It was natural for that boy to save Abel.
Since she was behind it.
However,
What faintly surfaced on that man’s face was an annoying indifference.
The expression she didn’t expect made the vampire princess extremely irritated.
“But, Your Highness.”
“What, Abel?”
“It seems like you’ve grown a bit taller.”
“What, wh-what?! Really!?”
Abel’s words made the vampire princess’s eyes sparkle.
Born from the original vampire, she experienced time passing as slowly as a dragon.
It meant she had to live for thousands of years to reach maturity.
The vampire princess is now a mere 300 years old.
In other words, she…
“Yes. Now you appear to be around 9 years old.”
“Hmm, I see. Abel, take care of yourself too.”
She was just a little kid.
