Chapter 232 - Omen A confrontation,
not a confrontation with Jecheon Daeseong, which started like that.
“Cuck!”
To be precise, training under the guise of confrontation.
Wow—billion!
More accurately, it could be called a beating under the guise of training.
Kwa Dang Tang!
Seo-joon, who was hit by Yeoui-bong of Jecheon Daeseong, rolled on the floor.
A terrible pain raged through his body, and his mind was dizzy.
Seojun bit his teeth and grabbed hold of the spirit that was moving away.
To be honest,
I thought I could deal with it to some extent.
While absorbing Beserk's heart, Seo-joon continued to grow by leaps and bounds.
Above all, in the battle with Eldritch, I was able to take a step towards transcendence.
That's why I thought I might not be able to beat Jecheon Daeseong,
but I wouldn't be beaten pointlessly.
However, Seo-joon overlooked one fact.
[What are you saying? Try your best.]
This is none other than the Earth, but the transcendent academy!
As a result, Jecheon Daeseong is not subject to any causal restrictions!
I managed to raise my eyes and look at the place where Jecheondaeseong Fortress was located on top of Yeouibong Peak.
He was looking at Seo-joon with a bored expression, clearing his nose.
The power of the perfect Jecheondaeseong without the restrictions of cause and effect.
It really was like a crazy monkey!
Seo-joon squeezed all his strength and raised himself.
“Keuk...!”
However, the intense pain swelled and he collapsed to the floor again.
Daeseong Jecheon yawned at Seo-jun's appearance.
[Haam.... It was so boring that I wanted to die. Take responsibility.]
“Damn it.”
Seojun had nothing to say.
[What, have you already given up? Eh tsk tsk.]
“You can’t be the opponent, the opponent. Besides, this wasn't a match, wasn't it training my senses? What if I just blindly lose?”
[It's not fun if you just practice.]
Ha.
Anyway, that bastard monkey didn't answer.
That moment.
[Oh yeah! How about this?]
Daeseong Jecheon continued by clasping their palms together.
[If you brush even the tip of my hair, I'll have a good fight with the lady. How is it?]
“Yes? Is that true?”
[then! Are you okay, Auntie?]
〔It's me.〕
Seeing Irina nodding her head, Seo-joon's eyes flashed.
“Not one shot, but the ends of the hair. You must keep it.”
[of course. I joke, but I don't lie. You know?]
“Yeah, but...”
[But can you do it? I don't know if it's because I keep being beaten and I can't learn anything and get kicked out!]
Jecheon Daeseong smiled.
Seo-joon gnashed his teeth and got up from his seat.
win!
That bastard monkey will definitely win!
Seo-joon burst into TRP speed towards Jecheondaeseong.
The distance narrowed in an instant with a flashing light.
A distance that leaps from moment to moment.
However, Jecheon Daeseong was in a state of avoiding the seat right away.
‘Where is it?'
Seojun quickly scanned the surroundings.
At the same time, the senses were expanded to the maximum.
but not visible
Even Chiron's heightened senses couldn't capture it.
The opponent is a crazy monkey.
He was a transcendent among transcendents who competed for the top.
‘I can't reach it at the current level.'
I had to admit what I had to admit.
However, I couldn't feed him poisonous bananas like last time.
Poisoned bananas had no effect on Jecheon Daeseong, who had
no way to feed them and no causal restrictions.
I don't know if it's the real Jormungandr's deadly poison.
Seojun calmly closed his eyes.
If you can't reach the current level,
you have to go one step further.
Seo-joon recalled what Irina had taught him.
Recognize the elements that make up the surroundings of an object.
In order for existence to exist, space is absolutely necessary,
so it inevitably affects space.
The flow of air that changes when a being exhales.
A subtle vibration that spreads when a being steps on the ground.
These are inevitable limitations that beings who need space have no choice but to have.
No one can escape these limits.
So, even if you cannot directly recognize an object,
you can indirectly recognize it through such information.
‘Irina told me to go further and rule the environment...'
It's still not up to that level.
You can't even get to that level all of a sudden.
step by step step by step.
Like expanding your own territory.
It brings the surrounding environment down to the realm of the senses.
That moment.
─.
With Seo-jun's senses, there was an illusion that something was floating.
I feel a strange sensation that cannot be clearly defined.
Seo-joon gently opened his eyes.
Jecheondaeseong is still invisible.
There was also nothing that caught my senses.
However, I can feel the vague presence of Jecheondaeseong.
Something like a thread that can't be caught.
‘now!'
Ka-ang!
The rushing Yeouibong was blocked by Longinus's spear.
[......!!]
[......!!]
Jecheon Daeseong and Irina's eyes opened wide at the same time.
Seojun twisted Longinus's spear.
Cacan!
A sharp sound erupted, and Longinus's spear tore the sound.
At the same time, it was shot fiercely, aiming for the neck of Jecheon Daeseong.
Daeseong Jecheon hurriedly retrieved Yeoui-bong and stepped back.
yeah back off
Seo-joon felt the actions of Jecheon Daeseong.
The movement of Jecheon Daeseong, which has not been seen before.
trajectory digging in speed.
All of that was vaguely felt.
Seo Jun chased after the Great Wall of Jecheon and brandished the spear of Longinus.
[Suddenly what!]
Jecheon Daeseong shouted with a surprised expression.
But soon he burst into laughter as if he were going to die of fun.
shhh!
Soon, Yeouibong of Jecheondaeseong flew into the air.
Seo-joon was also able to recognize that.
don't dodge this time
Seojun swung the spear of Longinus wide.
The Spear of Longinus and the Nueui Bong pierce each other, tearing through the space.
The power of transcendence contained within them covets each other's lives.
Rurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
The walls vibrated and the air shook.
Seo-joon's body was pushed back by the violent collision.
It was evidence that he had clearly been pushed back in a power confrontation.
However, Seo-joon was not discouraged.
can respond
It can respond to the movement of Jecheondaeseong.
That moment.
[It's still a long way off.]
Jecheon Daeseong's voice came from behind.
‘Which break?'
Seo-joon could feel goosebumps all over his body.
I kept watching, but
this time I didn't feel it at all.
But there is no time to think.
Seojun turned around and swung the Longinus spear.
However, the movement of Jecheon Daesung was a couple of beats faster.
Wow—billion!
riotous noise.
Seo-jun's body flew away.
[Hahahahaha! It suddenly became so much fun!]
Kwadangtang with Jecheon Daesung’s laughter!
Seo-joon's body, which was flying in the air, hit the floor roughly.
Could it be that the bones in the whole body have collapsed?
The terrible throbbing pain was not of the kind to be endured.
“Keuk...!”
However, Seo-joon stood up from his seat.
I got up somehow, using the spear of Longinus as a support.
“One game… one more.”
[Haha! Your eyes have changed! good! As much as you can!]
Jecheon Daeseong smiled happily and grabbed the Yeouibong.
Seo-jun calmed the pain and exhaled calmly.
The movements of Jecheondaeseong are vaguely felt.
Of course, it was blurry anyway.
Jecheondaeseong, which has no causal restrictions, could not be defeated.
It is also impossible to be able to feed one shot.
But somehow, it seemed like I could brush at least one hair.
flash
Seo-joon fired TRP's speed straight toward Jecheon Daeseong.
And just then.
Bad-.
Along with a clear sound coming from somewhere, Seo-jun's body suddenly stopped.
The burst of light quickly subsided.
His body was as stiff as stone,
as if he had not been allowed to move .
〔It seems that this is all there is to it.〕
And Irina's voice came.
[Eh, I thought it was going to be fun, but it stopped.]
Following that, Jecheon Dae-seong spat out words as if grumbling.
[I feel like I just pooped.]
It was a dirty metaphor, but
there was no metaphor that fit better.
Seojun was able to move his body only then.
After a while, he turned around and looked at Irina.
“I can do more. Just a little bit more...”
[No.]
Irina cut off Seo-jun and answered.
[Kim Seo-joon's condition isn't very good right now. I also did a lot. There is nothing wrong with the physical body, but there is a limit to being able to endure with Sakyamuni-nim's mental strength.]
“......”
Seo-joon had nothing to say.
Transcendent Academy is a space located outside the dimension.
Seo-joon's real body remained on Earth.
That's why the blows made now went into mental damage.
If it wasn't for that, Seo-joon would have fallen out immediately.
However, as Irina said, even Shakyamuni's immobility was slowly reaching its limit.
An EX-level sensation that surpasses the SSS-level.
That power far exceeded Seo-joon's expectations.
[By the way, is it really surprising? I didn't expect you to learn so quickly.]
Irina's expression was filled with pure admiration.
〔You seem to have got a sense of concepts and theories to some extent, so now you can learn them in Seojun Kim's way.〕
〔And if you learn more here, Seojun Kim will be in trouble. Above all, there is no time.]
Irina looked away for a moment and looked into the sky.
Then he said with a bright smile.
[There are people waiting for Kim Seo-jun, right?]
“Yes? Are you the one waiting for me?”
Seojun tilted his head and asked.
Then, like a vision, a scene began to appear in front of Seo-joon.
There, Seo-jun was lying still, like a dead person.
As in the boundary space, the time of the body has stopped.
And just then.
Fire, fire, fire!
Suddenly, dark flames began to soar over Seo-jun's body!
T-ring! Tring!
At the same time, Seo-jun's smartphone notification started ringing like crazy.
[Atlas lecture progress rate 89.4% (+1.1%)]
[Atlas lecture progress rate 90.7% (+1.3%)]
.
.
The progress rate of the Atlas River was rising there.
“what...?”
A moment of embarrassment.
Seo-joon could see Soo-yeon using Inferno magic.
“What crazy!”
Seo-joon shouted involuntarily.
To be honest, the flames of the Inferno magic didn't matter much.
That's because Atlas's hanseo was enough to handle it.
Seojun's body was not injured or anything like that.
but.
“Your clothes are burning!”
It wasn't the clothes I was wearing!
Last time, thanks to the care of the watcher, the clothes were safe.
But not this time.
Your clothes were burning roaring in the dark Inferno's hellfire!
In just a little while, the situation will burn completely.
“Director! Please send me soon! Quickly!”
Seo-joon urgently approached Irina.
Irina tilted her head as if she was pretending,
[Didn't you just say you could do a little more? And if we break up now, I don't know when we'll be able to meet again... Are you leaving right now?]
“That's not the problem right now!”
Irina gave a small smile.
Bad-.
and a clear sound.
[I hope that the day we can meet again will come.]
After Irina's last words,
Seo-joon's mind was cut off.
#
Right after Seojun left.
[It's the most fun to fight against that guy... Well, I have to promise the next time. Then I'm going, Ajumma.]
< I'm going too. >
Jecheon Dae-seong and the mentors also left to find their own jobs.
After everyone left, Irina was left alone in the director's office.
Irina seemed lost in thought.
He stood still in his place.
How much time had passed like that?
[I didn't expect you to visit me so soon.]
Suddenly, Irina muttered to herself.
He seemed to be talking to someone, but there was no one there except Irina.
Irina slowly turned her gaze and looked into the void.
And right at that moment.
『Are you crazy, Irina?』
An unknown will came from the air.
A watcher who oversees the dimension.
Irina quietly raised her eyes and looked at the presence of the observer.
『What you did is a clear violation of the contract. You must not have forgotten the price for the violation.]
〔It can't be. What oath did I violate?]
『Use of cause and effect without permission. I didn't allow you to teach him. However, you arbitrarily—.]
[Yes? Who am I teaching? I don't know at all?]
[...]
At Irina's impudent words, the observer lost his will for a moment.
Irina was putting a question mark on her face as if she really didn't know. 『
Are you saying you want to get rid of pretentiousness?』
I just managed to convince Kim Seo-joon to give up the free coupon.]
Irina smiled and continued.
[Our oath. Just like that.]
The observer was speechless for a moment and spewed out his will as if shouting out loud.
『Not pretentious, are you trying to play with words? Anyone can see that he gave up the free coupon in exchange for your teaching!]
[No, I really don't know. What evidence do you have that I did that? Do you have any evidence?]
『Proof? What proof do you need? As long as you didn't intervene, there's no way the burden of causation would suddenly come from something like this!!]
The observer shouted with a will full of anger.
That would be the case as soon as Seo-jun passed away, the causation of the dimension that was caught.
Because it's really crazy!
There was only one such case in all dimensions.
however.
〔I'm not sure... did you see it yourself?〕
『Wha what?』
〔I asked if you saw that I taught Seojun Kim?〕 I
wonder if he put adamantium on his face.
Irina was laughing single-singly with an expression that she really didn't know.
[...]
The observer once again lost the will to say anything.
That expression...
It seemed like I had seen it many times before.
For an instant, a nightmare flashed through the mind of the observer.
At the same time, I thought of a guy I never wanted to see again.
Is it because of that?
The observer shouted in anger. 『I
‘ll
show you the proof!』
In an instant, with a clear sound, a book appeared in front of Irina.
The Book of Thoth, which can reveal the records of cause and effect.
『If you look at this rat-like toy, the record will remain.』
Before long, Thoth's books began to unfold.
That moment.
Koo Goo Goo Goo...!
A tremendous sense of intimidation began to weigh down the entire space.
It focused on the expanding Book of Thoth and
prevented the further unfolding of the Book of Thoth.
The observer let out an annoyed will.
『What are you doing?』
[Does not intervene in the circumstances of the academy. Wasn't that an oath?]
The observer had no choice but to pause.
It was because Irina's words were true.
The Book of Thoth is a record of causality held by the Transcendent Academy.
It is located outside the dimension and is free from the observer's influence.
do not interfere with each other
That was the first oath from the first transcendent.
If he had told Seo-jun the secret of the oath with the observer, in
other words, if he had interfered with the observer's work.
The observer could see it immediately.
However, Irina kept the right line.
Therefore, the observer did not have the right to read the book of Thoth.
So, in order to check for a breach of a covenant, we have to break it.
Even if the violation of the covenant is confirmed,
the observer is also in a state of violation of the covenant, so the authority to dispose of it disappears.
Ironically, the observer could not do this or that.
『There's no way you would have had such a small head... That damn guy.』
The observer couldn't utter any will for a while.
So little time passed.
“Either way… a stupid choice.”
The observer reprimanded Irina.
『The more the causal burden on that dimension increases, the more his restrictions are released.』 『I
don't think you know why I had to stop him from using free coupons?
』 Do you think you can handle that bastard? The guy you couldn't handle and sent away?”
Ha.
The observer let out a will similar to a laugh and continued.
『Are you stupid or arrogant?』
〔Isn't that something to wait and see?〕
『As expected, it was stupid.』
The observer immediately took over his will.
“Don’t get me wrong, Irina. No matter how much you are a ‘third' Transcendentalist, you are only a Transcendentalist after the concept of transcendence has been established.] 『There is
nothing you can do.』
〔You probably said something similar to Master, right? In the end, he couldn't handle it, so he killed Master.]
The observer hesitated for a moment.
However, as if nothing had happened, he soon let out his will.
“Think freely. However, you will surely regret this choice of today.”
So the observer left.
#
The mind seems to be swimming in the water.
I couldn't properly recognize the humming sound in my ears.
The moment when such a hazy mind tries to continue.
“Burn up.”
Inferno.
Along with Suyeon's voice, a strong mana burst out from somewhere.
Soon, black flames burst into Seo-jun's whole heart.
Roaring Roaring!
Like a pitch-black aurora.
Jet-black flames soared through Seo-jun's body.
“stop!!!”
Seo-joon jumped up from his seat and shouted.
The pitch-black flame still wrapped around Seo-jun's body.
It looked like a demon descending from hell.
“Oh! Alive!”
Suyeon's voice is heard.
When I turned my gaze, Soo-yeon was raising her magic power with one hand outstretched.
Apparently, he was preparing another magic.
Seoyoon was standing next to him.
Seojun said with an absurd expression.
“What are you doing right now?”
“Your brother was wearing makeup!”
“......”
Seo-joon was at a loss for words when he saw Soo-yeon shouting proudly.
Of course, Seo-jun knew that he was wearing makeup.
Roaring Roaring Roaring!
Even now, I could tell just by looking at the black flames burning through my whole body.
however.
Why are you wearing makeup on a normal person!
And just then.
“Seojun! Why do you keep dying!”
Seoyoon strode closer to Seojun with an angry expression.
“for a moment!”
Seeing Seoyoon like that, Seojun was startled and shouted.
However, Seoyoon continued to approach Seojun.
This time, there was no hesitation, as if he was going to speak firmly.
Seo-jun shouted at Seo-yoon.
“Don’t come any closer!!”
Only then did Seoyoon stop moving.
Roaring Roaring Roaring!
Inferno, the flames of hell covering Seo-jun's entire body.
The hot flame did not harm Seo-jun.
But it was enough to reduce the clothes she was wearing to ashes.
Fortunately, it was invisible due to Inferno's black flames.
It was as if a black curtain had been put on it.
But if you put out this flame...
to be precise, when you get close.
“Ah...!”
seemed to some extent.
Seo-yoon's eyes were on Seo-joon, but they stopped and hardened.
The last time he was cremated in America, Seo-joon's clothes were fine.
That's why Seoyoon thought she would be fine this time as well.
However, there was consideration of the observer then, and
now there is no consideration.
Of course, Seoyoon couldn't understand such a situation.
“Uh...uh...”
Seoyoon's face heated up as she looked at Seojun.
In an instant, he turned red like a carrot and began to panic.
Eventually, Seoyoon turned her head and sat down in her seat.
“Ah ah ah ah I didn’t see it!!!”
It's not that I didn't see it, but Seoyoon's words that I didn't see it.
“Get out now!!”
Seo-joon shouted, bursting with the magic of the triple battle.
