At the central area, before heading to the residential area.

I was in one of the conference rooms in the Student Association Hall.

“Jeokho said you would be busy today.”

I thought about how to cut the conversation since I slowly had to go to the residential area, and Gong Cheonghwon, fortunately, brought it up first.

Since Jeokho couldn’t have told him the details of what would happen today, I think he was caught up in Gong Cheonghwon’s words.

“I’ve also heard that if I interfere, everyone could be put in danger.”

Still, it seems that Jeokho didn’t solely give out information.

He made arrangements to make it easier for me to move.

I decided to jump on this opportunity.

“Yes, that will happen.”

“Should I go with you then?”

Several things came to mind at Gong Cheonghwon’s suggestion.

If he were to accompany me, things may easily work out in the residential area.

However, thinking of the possibilities made me change my mind.

‘It’s less likely that a demon will appear where I’m going. Even if one shows up, I can easily cope with it. Unlike here.’

Invidius’ priest, who was attacking students using Bang Yoonseob, was caught.

It’s unlikely that another demon would rescue him, but there’s a possibility that a spy would be sent to see where the hell the priest has been.

Considering that, I decided that Gong Cheonghwon should be left here.

If Jegal, who’s with the sophomore group, arrived in the central early, maybe I could’ve taken Gong Cheonghwon with me.

‘Now Gong Cheonghwon knows about the Spiritual Word skill.’

Instead of agreeing to Gong Cheonghwon, I decided to explain to him some things.

“Professor, I have something to tell you about the Spiritual Word skill.”

The Demon Race’s weakness is the Spiritual Word.

Gong Cheonghwon easily subdued Invidius’ priest with it, along with his many minions.

Given that, the Demon Race tries to secretly deal with those who can use that skill.

While I explained these facts, Gong Cheonghwon who had been listening intently asked back.

“How did you know all that, Euishin?”

It was after Jegal in PMh was tricked by the Black Screen that I found out about this.

Avaritia of Greed, one of the Seven Deadly Sins.

The priest, who was empowered by the Black Screen, used the seeds of curse to trap Jegal as a hostage.

They were right to deal with the Black Screen, but it’s only because Jegal was a skill user of their weakness.

I couldn’t disclose this to Gong Cheonghwon, so I decided to gloss over it.

“…I can use the skill too. I’ve had a fight with a demon.”

Although I borrowed Jegal’s power, I can also technically use the skill.

I captured Avaritia’s priest with Jegal’s power, and that demon is now stuck beyond the Tiger Clan’s realm.

Anyway, what I said wasn’t a lie.

“Use objects and Spiritual Word… It’s not strange that you’ve confronted a demon. You won, right?”

“Yes.”

“Well done.”

It felt like I was hearing the words of a teacher.

It was strange.

No, it’s true that Gong Cheonghwon is a teacher and I’m a student but… maybe it’s because I’ve been going through crises one after the other that I almost forgot that I’m a student.

Does Gong Cheonghwon use that tone on purpose to remind me?

“Since you mentioned that, you mean that I should stay here because there’s a possibility of another demon appearing, correct?”

“…”

“I see. It will be safe as long as I’m here, but what about you, Euishin?”

“What?”

I will be taking great risks, but it will be fine.

I was thinking about how to respond, and instead of lying, i decided to answer vaguely.

“It’ll be alright.”

“It sounds like things could go wrong, Euishin.”

It wasn’t easy to refute him with his mighty voice.

It was even more so because I knew that he was truly just worried about me.

“I don’t have to worry if you’ll deal with a demon since you have the Spiritual Word skill, Euishin. But I don’t think you’re going to be facing a demon.”

It was nice that I didn’t have to explain things one by one, but it still felt strange.

Gong Cheonghwon would’ve come here without a clue about anything, but it felt similar to during the operational meeting at the tiger’s mansion.

Is it because he’s Shinin?

“Be careful then, Euishin.”

While I agonized about what to say, Gong Cheonghwon blurted out.

He smiled and saw me off.

“I told you. I was told by Jeokho that everyone could be in danger if I interrupted.”

“That’s true, but…”

“I was going to let you do what you wanted from the start, Euishin. But if I let you go right away, you’d have been working straight hours without a break. I was worried and I thought about going with you, but  I don’t mean to stop you.”

What he said was true.

If I hadn’t been caught by Gong Cheonghwon, I would’ve pretended to be going to the bathroom but in reality, quickly escaped to the residential area using Jeon Muyeong’s light skill.

‘He held me up to make me rest.’

I grabbed the cup given by Gong Cheonghown and gulped the lukewarm water.

Seeing that, Gong Cheonghwon was satisfied. Read the most updated version of this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at Novel Multiverse – “NovelMultiverse dot com”

I left the post to him and headed to the residential area.

After leaving the Student Association Hall, I actualized the item card given by Eunho and wore it.

It was a crow doll mask and Eunho’s handmade armor with a slightly deceptive function.

We decided to use camouflage armor because if I used Jeon Muyeong’s light skill all throughout, it would consume a lot of energy waves.

I chose a design that I could explain even if I got caught.

‘Eunho wanted to dress me up in a tiger doll.’

Everyone recommended a tiger costume during our operations meeting.

Maybe it’s because my energy wave color is black, but the tigers wanted me in black tiger clothes.

Yong Jegun suggested that I wear a dragon costume, saying that the Joo-Oh Dragon mascot is pretty cute, but no one paid attention to him.

All he got was Kim Shinrok’s pathetic gaze.

Still, when I explained that it would be difficult for me to move later if my connection with the Tiger Clan became public, the tigers decided to make a crow costume despite their dissatisfaction.

But the black tiger costume was still manufactured.

Of course, it was left in the mansion.

‘I have to go now.’

I tried to leave the Student Association Hall behind, but I couldn’t take a step.

There were so many of my classmates, seniors, teachers, and playable characters left here.

It was even more difficult when I remembered how disastrous the struggle continued at the Student Association Hall during the First Christmas in PMH.

‘…I have to trust them and do what I have to do!’

If it doesn’t snow, Eungwang High won’t lose to those enemies.

The more students died, the thicker the snow fell and the enemies improved.

Perhaps the snow was like a sacrificial rain ritual that made them stronger after each student’s death.

But we don’t have to worry about that now, so things will be alright.

I repeated that to myself several times and started running to the residential area.

Wooooaaaah…

Grrrr….

I encountered dozens of enemies moving to the Student Association hall while on the move.

It was creepy, but I decided to leave them to the students who were ready to fight at each exit of the hall.

‘When I’m done solving the main problem, they won’t have to deal with enemies anymore.’

I made such an excuse as I avoided the enemies and ran.

There were none of them who attacked me, perhaps because of Eunho’s great skill or just luck.

That’s how I arrived at the residential area.

While the students were building a barricade around Jiikhoe Hall, the road leading to Cheonik Mountain looked busy.

‘They’re attacking the otherworld!’

Jiikhoe reportedly encountered an otherworld while investigating the emergency exit that will lead outside of Eungwang High.

Now, an attack team has been organized by Sung Siwan, and Gye Idam was left behind to defend the hall.

While hiding and listening to the students’ conversations, I suddenly felt uncomfortable.

I couldn’t believe that Gye Bastard.

No one would believe that he’s the guy he pretends to be if they saw his memories through the former head of the association.

How can I trust that bastard who couldn’t even handle simple enemies while using Ahn Dain’s character, the top player in PMH?

‘Let’s wait and see at least until Sung Siwan rejoins them.’

I climbed onto a simple shelter pavilion on the trail.

Then, I lowered my body and actualized a sniper rifle item, examining the situation in the Jiikhoe Hall beyond my scope.

That’s when I saw enemies break out of the gap.

‘There are four of them. The players around right now are Park Seunghyun, Kim Hyungu, and… Gye Bastard!’

I’m nervous about Park Seunghyun dealing with an enemy alone, but I thought it would at least be fine if Kim Hyungu is with him.

Kim Hyungu was the first to discover the enemies.

He was faster than Gye Bastard, making him reliable.

But that wasn’t the case in terms of combat.

‘That’s a higher rarity enemy. They could deal with it, but they’re too flustered!’

Unknown variables can occur at any time on the battlefield.

Seeing the unexpectedly stronger enemies come out, the inexperienced freshmen were flustered.

With the help of Kim Hyungu, Park Seunghyun narrowly avoided the crisis, but they tried to run away as if they lost their will. 

‘They were attacked while building the barricade, so it’s not easy for them to retreat. The enemy’s rarity isn’t that high, so it’s better to fight.’

The one fighting right now was Gye Bastard, wielding a heavy-looking hammer.

It seemed to take time to call for support because the enemies had just appeared.

In the end, I decided to intervene.

Bang bang! Bang!

Woooahhh…

Kuung…

Thanks to the energy gun used with my Use Objects skill, the bullet penetrated the enemy’s vital point exactly as I wanted.

After knocking down all the enemies with a sniper, I decided to show my face, thinking of the possibility that Park Seunghyun would waste his time looking for the sniper.

I approached them and stopped in front of Gye Idam.

‘Why is that bastard looking at me like that…? Ah.’

I felt displeased at Gye Bastard’s hopeful face.

A clean shot, a hidden body, and Gye Idam’s gaze.

He thinks that I’m Ahn Dain.

Hwik!

Unable to withstand the displeasure, I threw off the mask.

It turned into an item card and returned to my hands.

I glared at Gye Idam with contempt. Read the most updated version of this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at Novel Multiverse – “NovelMultiverse dot com”
