chapter 9
Episode 9
omen(1)
I’ve heard the saying, ‘Highly developed science is like magic.’
It comes from the three laws of a very famous science fiction writer.
Why are you suddenly talking about this?
The fruits of the 23rd century’s super-advanced scientific and technological civilization and the collection of magic engineering that did not exist in reality were looking down at me.
… … .
A flattened nose and slit, bulging eyes. Large fangs protruding from thick lips.
It is so huge that it is impossible to believe that it is a humanoid that can be 3m.
The whole body must have been hit dozens of times with steroids, and the muscles that seemed to burst filled the huge body without any empty spaces.
Lastly, the light green skin like an unripe plum that wraps around its enormous body.
A level 7 humanoid monster.
Oak.
He was licking his lips and drooling as if he had been dragged along the asphalt floor.
-ah. ah. Solar student-? It’s just a light test, so don’t be nervous!
A room plastered in white, like a mental ward. Inside the large measurement room, a room that looked like a huge extension of a lab rat case.
I swallowed dry saliva in my mouth as I listened to the training assistant’s voice resonating through the speaker.
… … Don’t be nervous watching that?
-Because he was implemented with spirit-type magic and a hologram device, even if he was shocked, the actual blow would be weak-!
Hearing the instructor’s words, he turned his gaze toward the boy’s hand.
There, there is a thick wooden club that could be 2m tall, no, rather than a club, it’s just a suitable tree.
Even the iron nails protruding from the ceiling glisten in the light pouring from the ceiling.
Really sincerely.
Even if it’s right, it won’t hurt at all. crazy guy… … .
Still, I looked at the other hand with anticipation. Even my fingers were pumped with muscles with bumpy veins, and the moment my face was in that hand, I felt as if my head would be squeezed like a junk car.
How can I be hit, I can be hit without pain… … .
With curiosity embedded in his brain, the orc let out a scream and rushed at it.
* * *
Most of the practice was also skipped, just as the theory class scene in the game was flashed and cut cleanly.
It wasn’t that there was no information at all. Because it was the first fight scene with a monster, he explained it to some extent.
The guy who appeared to Kang Hyuk in the original work is a level 8 humanoid monster troll.
A monster grade award that gets stronger as the number gets smaller. Orc is one level higher than the one Kanghyeok was dealing with.
Is that a guy I can’t beat? Looking back, that wasn’t the case.
Monsters below level 7 can’t use magical power, so it’s said that Golden Sun was a good enough opponent to defeat… … .
How do you keep your composure when you see that?
Even if the orc was a dumb monster who rushed at a distance of 2m with just one step and tried to strike down a towering club, it was possible to fully guess the guy’s inner thoughts with his ferocious eyes.
‘Cut in half and die. human-!’
Against the backdrop of heavy sound effects cutting through the air, the target of the savage stick was, of course, the top of my head.
The impression of seeing the guy’s club growing bigger and bigger in the field of vision was as follows.
crazy-.
It’s not about splitting up. it will be crushed
Still, at such an early age, I had no intention of becoming a human meatball, so I hurriedly deployed my magic and threw my body backwards.
Thanks to the quick evasive maneuver, the orc’s club, in contrast to the strong movement, slammed the floor with only the tip of my head in vain.
When the eyes followed the movement of the guy with a movement close to instinct, the brain recognized the information that the guy was doing his best through the visual information of the wide deltoid muscle and biceps.
‘—!’
It must have been so dissatisfying that I lightly dodged it, so the howling green mass snorted and swung the stick that had hit the ground to the upper right, sweeping the yard.
He also lightly leaned over and dodged it.
But maybe the timing was slightly off, the iron nail at the end of the orc’s club split the end of my clothes this time.
Roughly… … Are you feeling?
It didn’t take long to figure out the guy’s attack, which was embarrassing to even call it alcohol.
However, 2 sets. That was enough.
There must have been a better attack method, but his movements were only swayed by his own physical strength.
Even until I figured out the timing of his attack in 5 moves, the assistant who happened to come into sight at that time looked like that.
At 10th, I recognized the pattern, and I saw him making a surprising expression outside the window with a wide view.
And in the 15th, by the time I figured out the principle of the attack, the assistant’s jaw dropped.
After the 20th episode, when he got used to his attack, he stopped counting and started observing him with inorganic eyes.
I don’t know how many times I avoided him while observing his movements. The attack, which had been quite menacing at first, now did not reach me at all.
If it was the golden sun of the original work, he would have known his weakness, so he would have used his strong point, splendid swordsmanship, to finish it off at once.
but. My thoughts, purpose, and circumstances were different from Taeyang.
Even in the middle of my thoughts, I saw that guy’s club swinging at my head, as if I lowered my head and passed by.
I dodged it really lightly.
His movements are based on his instincts with overwhelming power.
If you replace it with a sword.
sword.
It’s a swordsmanship that doesn’t suit me.
Perhaps realizing that he was being played with, he let out a snort filled with anger.
As if to prove that he was really angry, his burning eyes began to turn red.
Gwanghwa.
At one time, the body-type buff was so powerful that even discussions were held in the association about whether a guy without magical powers should be raised to 6th grade.
Looking at the orc’s eyes that turned completely bloody, there was nothing more to extract from him.
It was time to test the magical power obtained yesterday. Grabbing my sword, I awakened the flame of my image.
At the same time, the clock slowed down.
The roar of the orcs that were spewing towards me increased.
Throwing out red eyes, the guy who ran towards me slowed down.
Finally, the hands of the clock hanging on the wall stopped.
In a dark image with nothing. A dazzling white flame bloomed.
The size is not much different from the previous one. But I’m not disappointed here. Because I knew that this single leaf of flame was the beginning.
As if wrapping the first flame, the next flame rose up.
the next flame.
And then the fireworks too.
next… … .
that… … .
The sparks that started with one suddenly became dozens, and the white sparks that multiplied by that number were no longer simple fires.
all sorts of flowers.
Each flame turned into petals and blossomed into a single flower.
This is the magic image of the golden sun.
The whitish-white magical boots ascended upward, annihilated at the end, and regenerated from the bottom, brilliantly repeating and blazing splendidly.
The moment when the peak of magicization was fully unfolded.
I drew my sword-.
Why, it seems like you’re picking it up now. The guy answered with a clear rustling sound.
Everything that had slowed down found its speed.
The sword in his hand spewed out pure whitish light.
* * *
-ah. ah. Taeyang Gold student. Taeyang Gold student. There are missing items, so please return to the measurement room C-8 now.
– I spread it once again. Taeyang Gold student. Student Taeyang Geum… … .
After the practice time, as usual, when I finished taking a shower in the public shower room, there was a broadcast urgently looking for the golden sun. Because it is the same ‘ㄱ’ character surname, our cabinets were directly facing each other.
As if something good had happened, Geum Taeyang, who was smiling with satisfaction, put down the cell phone he was holding and headed toward the door with great strides.
-widely.
Silence followed by the sound of the door closing.
It was already quite late, so I was the only one in the large dressing room.
I hurriedly started changing my clothes to avoid being late for my next class, and by the time I was almost done.

Jiing-.
I heard a cell phone vibrate somewhere.
A vibrating sound that would normally have gone over casually.
However, it was the result of diligently looking around along the vibration that was strangely familiar.
I was soon able to find the starting point of the vibrating sound.
-Geum Taeyang.
The inside of the golden sun cabinet that was not completely closed was the source of this sound.
It has nothing to do with me.
There was no eccentricity of looking through other people’s cell phones, so the moment I completely changed my clothes and went out.

Jiing-.
The sound of my phone ringing again caught my steps.
At first it was a loud, blaring, vibrating sound, but now it seemed to be talking to me.
If you leave like this, you will regret it for the rest of your life. I’ll give you one last chance.
There was no charm whatsoever, it was just a simple phone vibration.
It sounded sweeter to me than anything in the world. As if possessed, I followed the vibrating sound and headed in front of the golden sun cabinet.
And the moment you stand in front of it.
Through that small crack in the door, the blue light that appears when a cell phone rings came into my eyes.
Trying to calm his trembling fingertips, he reached for the handle.
As soon as the hand slowly reached the handle, the shaking of the hand stopped.
slowly.
very slowly.
A familiar name appeared on Taeyang’s mobile phone, visible through the gap between the slowly opened door.
– Kang Haneul.
It was only three letters. It was enough to take away the blood from my limbs and make them cold.
I hear tinnitus in my ears at the moment.
why… … How are you two… … ?
I couldn’t think of anything else.
I was so curious about the contents of the call, so I opened a shop using my unique skill.
-Everything’s shop.
Favorite: Demon Summon Scroll. -200P
Search word: Eavesdropper.
For Sale: ‘cheap’ wiretaps. -150P
Remaining points: 180.
My hand was pressing the purchase button on a cheap wiretap.

I ate my lunch at the communal restaurant and looked around.
The restaurant, which should have been crowded at lunchtime, was empty.
Normally, the entrance was not so secluded, but students had to stand in line, and the noise of children talking loudly could be heard from all directions.
Obviously, if there was even an intense exercise called a practice test in the morning, it would have been crowded by now, not full, but crowded like hell during rush hour… … .
It’s been so quiet today.
Anxiety overtook me for a moment, and my throat choked.
In an atmosphere where it felt like a necklace of bombs hung around my neck, feeling the cool air, I prepared to gradually increase my mana.
Nothing really happened… … .
ah… … .
When I remembered today’s lunch menu, everything made sense in an instant.
As I moved my gaze to the tray where the lunch was contained, today’s menu, which I had been eating without thinking, winked at me.
Originally it should be crispy, but the batter has become soggy over time.
Seen through that yellowish color, the greasy blue light that hit my eyes at once was so rich that it overflowed.
Finally, at the very bottom of the soup, brown powders that were ready to disperse at any moment like the sediments of the deep sea had settled and settled to the bottom.
It’s a gosuntwie dung soup that even Yellowy filters… … .
… … Somehow, there weren’t many people in the restaurant, but after lunch, everyone jumped out.
Shit, I’ll go to the canteen too.
* * *
I could see Kanghyuk and Anya skipping lunch and forgetting their lunch boxes at the cafeteria we went to for coffee.
Today’s lunch was a lunch they skipped too… … .
