One of the things we discussed ahead of Christmas was how to deal with the Demon Race.

It was certain that the priest of Invidius was aiming for Bang Yoonseob and we were sure he would intervene in some way.

It wasn’t difficult to solve if Bang Yoonseob would be controlled from outside the school.

The problem was if the demon would show himself directly.

— We’ve consistently blocked all their attacks, so they’re going to come in bolder and stronger than they did in the game. It would be safe to assume that the Demon Race would directly participate in the attack.

The Demon Race through a powerful high-ranking priest of a Demon God.

It was unlikely that they’d fight fair.

The priest must’ve looked into Bang Yoonseob’s head, so it’s likely that he’d take advantage of his weaknesses.

However, we had countermeasures that we could take.

— A player with a Spiritual Word skill should deal with the demon.

— Good. You can use it, right Jo Euishin?

I could use my Player Identity light skill and use Jegal’s power.

I’ve used it once on Avaritia’s priest.

But we can’t afford to let our guard down.

— But the demon saw Euishin hyung use the skill while he was wearing a crow mask. That’s what the ‘eye’ left by the other demon priest saw and relayed.

Eunho seemed to agree with me.

It’s easy to assume from the various circumstances that the crow mask was related to Eungwang High.

Therefore, if the Demon Race were to directly intervene during that day, they’d be prepared for the skill.

From that line of thought, there seems to be a gap that appeared.

— I used Professor Jegal’s power to engrave letters that held down Avaritia’s priest.

There are two forms of Spiritual Word — spoken and written.

The poet Jegal’s words are mainly expressed through writing.

That’s what the Demon Race saw.

— They experienced it through writing last time, so they’ll be wary of that instead of spoken word.

The tigers seemed to have figured out what I was referring to.

There was a Spiritual Word user in Eungwang HIgh who had a deep connection with the tigers.

Eunho spoke first.

— You’re going to call Shinin, no, Gong Cheonghwon-nim.

— Yeah.

I gambled as I thought the tigers would oppose it.

After all, I’d be summoning the reincarnation of Shinin to a dangerous place.

I would have to come up with the next best plan if they opposed it, but Hwang Jiho gently nodded.

— Okay. We need to place reliable power where we need it.

— …

— Did you think we’d stop you? Hahahaha! Shinin isn’t someone who can easily be beaten by demons. Even if he’s in human form.

Hwang Jiho laughed as if he had read my mind.

Following the laughing Hwang Jiho, Eunho also spoke.

— It would be ridiculous if Shinin-nim weren’t there. We’ll be scolded in the future if we try to keep him somewhere safe.

— Yeah, we’ll get in trouble for taking away the opportunity to save his students.

— Yes, he would.

Even Jeokho affirmed, so there seems to be no need to doubt.

The topic of the meeting changed to how to place Gong Cheonghwon in the right place.

Gong Cheonghwon will be at the Eungwang Light Nursery on Christmas Eve.

He might spend his Christmas with Hani and Dokgo Miro.

— I’m sure the Demon Race knows about Gong Cheonghwon. I’ll figure out the teacher’s schedule and monitor him.

The Demon Race has this persistent eye that looks over Eungwang High.

They will check whether Gong Cheonghwon is headed to the nursery.

— They won’t slow down surveillance until they confirm that Professor Gong Cheonghwon has entered the nursery. After that, they’ll be looking around the school’s vicinity.

If the Demon Race would move like that, we could counterattack them.

The Demon Race would let their guard down a little if they thought that Gong Cheonghwon was outside the school.

— Let’s trick that eye and lead Professor Gong Cheonghwon to the school.

There were many ways to call Gong Cheonghwon without getting noticed.

We could install a portal inside the nursery, go underground, camouflage, or use Jeokho’s smoke.

The Demon Race can’t see through Jeokho’s fog, so it’s more certain that we can use his power.

— The Demon Race made full use of their dirty hobbies. I think we can turn it around this time.

Jeokho, who I decided to move Gong Cheonghwon into Eungwang High with his powers, added something

— But I have a mission I’m supposed to take on in school in advance. It’s hard to keep moving together.

Jeokho was right.

Even if he could bring Gong Cheonghwon to school, Gong Cheonghwon has to move on his own.

— Is there a way to get him to go where the demon is?

— I think Euishin hyung knows how to call him where he needs to be when he wants to. Read the most updated version of this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at Novel Multiverse – “NovelMultiverse dot com”

The tigers looked at me.

Something came to my mind.

Rather than original thought, it was memories and experiences.

— Professor Gong Cheonghwon is good at finding me.

I unintentionally missed a lot of Gong Cheonghwon’s classes.

Perhaps that’s why he’s worried, but I feel that Gong Cheonghwon cares about me a little as he often comes to find me.

‘And I don’t stay in usual places. And Eungwang High is extremely huge.’

I go around various places to get used to the school’s geography, and Gong Cheonghwon doesn’t fail to find me.

Unlike Hwang Jiho, he doesn’t use tricks like locating my device.

— He probably has a tracker skill. Maybe it’s not too, but… Anyway, Professor Gong Cheonghwon has a knack for finding me at school.

I looked at Jeokho.

— Please ask Professor Gong Cheonghwon to come to school and find me.

I arranged for Joo Soohyuk to search for Bang Yoonseob.

Joo Soohyuk would’ve joined the central area after listening to Do Wonwoo’s broadcast.

And Class Zero was likely to be in charge of defense with Class One and Two.

‘The details will be different because the people and situation are different from PMH. But it remains the same that our class will move with Class One and Two.’

I planned to face Bang Yoonseob in the central area.

That’s how the variables were set in place.

‘All the pieces are set to counter Invidius’s priest.’

First, the head of the Snake Clan that gave Bang Yoonseob an order.

When I contacted her by device and told her about Bang Yoonseob, she willingly accepted meeting in person.

After hearing the situation, the head of the Snake Clan gave out her scales and said “Take care of that stupid fool, please.”

Although she calls him a stupid fool, it’s apparent that she has affection for Bang Yoonseob.

‘After preventing Bang Yoonseob from being controlled, we had to secure a means to attack directly.’

Second, Gong Cheonghwon who can use Spiritual Word against demons.

Gong Cheonghwon wasn’t just a strong player.

In PMH and this world, he wasn’t supposed to be in Eungwang High.

The demon knew this and had his guard down a little.

As expected, he found me and seized the demon.

“Those are a lot of minions. But I don’t think they’re all from your powers.”

The priest of Invidius glared at Gong Cheonghwon with humiliation and anger.

Gong Cheonghwon only looked at him with a calm face.

No matter how angry the demon was, he couldn’t disturb Gong Cheonghwon’s mind.

Tadak!

When Invidius’ priest could not move, Bang Yoonseob ran to Choi Younghee.

He tried to release her, but he couldn’t do it easily.

Bang Yoonseob was restless.

It seems that the power of the demon couldn’t be overturned by Bang Yoonseob.

[Let go of that kid.]

With Gong Cheonghwon’s single word, the kd was released from the demon’s grasp.

Before Choi Younghee fell, Bang Yoonseob caught her and wiped her forehead with his school uniform.

“Hey! Are you alright? You’re bleeding!”

Bang Yoonseob almost became a minion of a demon, but he only cared about Choi Younghee.

When Choi Younghee was released from her ties, the priest seemed to flinch for a moment.

He lost his hostage, and he’s now held by Spiritual Word.

However, he wriggled his hands as if he hadn’t given up.

‘He’s going to explode power from the stigmata if he has to!’

I wasn’t the only one who read his move.

“I see that robe has the power to reject my word. I guess you can move somewhat freely under the robe.”

Gong Cheonghwon said in a soft one. 

Invidius’ priest must’ve prepared to robe to prevent letters from being engraved on his body.

Worst case, I would have to use Jegal’s power, but things wouldn’t go easy if that happens.

“You have to ruin your body before you use your power again. You kicked that student’s treasure with your foot, didn’t you?”

Gong Cheonghwon pointed at the priest’s feet.

Energy waves gathered at his fingertips.

He’s going to use another skill with Spiritual Word.

[You can no longer walk with that foot.]

Wooook!

I could hear something break down several times.
The priest collapsed without being able to scream.

I couldn’t figure out how it changed because he was covered by his robe, but I don’t think he could even use that foot for walking again unless he cuts it off and it regenerates.

“You listen well.”

Gong Cheonghwon said as he looked at the demon and his unmoving minions.

Students murmured at the sight.

“Is that even possible? That royal lineage was extremely strong though, so what the heck?”

“I knew Professor Gong Cheonghwon was strong, but this much…”

“Is that royal lineage weak against Spiritual Word? Is there such a thing?”

“I recorded it on my device. I should analyze it later.”

Invidius’ priest lost his hostage and was in more pain than being hit by the snow.

The Demon race’s most humiliating and feared weakness is the Spiritual Word.

The secrets that the Demon Race has been hiding for a long time will be revealed to the world after this incident.

“Thank you, Lena… Because of us, you…”

“Don’t mention it. What’s important is you guys didn’t get hurt!”

“Lena…”

As the situation calmed down, my classmates collected fragments of what was left of the energy violin.

However, the largest fragment was barely the size of a fingernail.

I couldn’t apologize much, thinking that Kwon Lena would only get more upset if we kept talking about the violin.

Kwon Lena smiled and kept trying to change the subject, so the children didn’t ask further.

“I guess that royal lineage is weak against Spiritual Word. … I wish Professor Jegal was here too.”

“…I heard that the department heads are on a business trip overseas.”

“…I miss Professor Ham Geunhyung.”

Teachers in managerial positions are known to be on a business trip.

My classmates seemed to think so too.

Meanwhile, while Yoo Sanghoon and Maeng Hyodon picked up the fragmented strings, the two looked at me and murmured.

“He’s suspicious.”

“Suspicious.”

I pretended not to hear what they said. Read the most updated version of this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at Novel Multiverse – “NovelMultiverse dot com”
