EX rank supporting role’s replay in a prestigious school - Chapter 629
Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse
Around a hundred years ago, after the otherworldly collisions on the Korean Peninsula.
The royal lineage, which is represented by the 12 regions located in Korea with strong earth power, signed a non-aggression treaty.
However, two of them fell for the temptation of the Black Screen and violated the pledge when they invaded the Tiger Clan’s territory.
The traitors of the 12-point alliance are the Pig Clan and Cow Clan.
‘The Cow Clan isn’t stupid enough to talk rubbish here. If they say unnecessary things here, it would surely drive a wedge.’
Even though I called their clan name, I heard no response.
Not even a single lousy refutation was heard.
They haven’t been found to be the traitors of the alliance for so long, so I expected that they’d be smart.
After a short silence, the mechanical voice asked.
“Do you know what you’re talking about right now? I wouldn’t dare say such a word without evidence if I were you.”
They must be curious about the evidence that I have that led me to conclude that they are the Cow Clan.
Depending on the evidence, they could determine how the Tiger Clan would respond.
Of course, since I’ve identified them by elimination, I had no direct evidence.
But I didn’t need to tell them that.
“Even if there is, I don’t need to reveal it to the traitors. It’s probably after you’ve been caught that we’d see evidence of betrayal.”
If they are caught here, they can be branded as criminals who violated the territory of the Tiger Clan.
Then their identity will be the evidence.
Perhaps they understood what I mean, the Cow Clan replied in a rather rougher way than his tone at first.
“You want to catch us? You say that even though you know we’re royal lineage?”
A young student suddenly calling out their name, branding them a traitor, and vows to catch them would surely trigger a royal lineage.
But seeing that they’re still not attacking me, it seems like my taunt is lacking.
While I was thinking about how to agitate them more, I felt the energy of a needle-thin energy wave pass by.
Fwiing…
Judging from the flow of energy waves in the surroundings, they seem to be detecting the existence of a trap.
If they backed down and hadn’t attacked me, I would’ve had to pull other moves, but this is good.
If they see that there’s no trap, they’ll attack me immediately.
But it’s not good enough to provoke them, to slightly shake their composure.
Should I do something more?
I said something that would upset them a little bit more.
“Of course. You are weak enough to sneak a surprise attack for a student-led Christmas event, and to be wary of traps after getting provoked.”
Although students of Eungwang High are strong enough, it’s still true that targeting teenagers like this is merciless and cowardly.
On a Christmas Event at that.
As if my words hit the nail on the head, I felt their presence get stronger.
An energy wave strong enough to cut my tongue and stab me right away began to emerge.
It was time for me to sort out where they were hiding when…
“Don’t fall for provocations.”
A mechanical voice I heard for the first time spoke and the others stopped raising their energy waves.
In just one word, as if nothing had happened, silence fell.
It seemed to be someone other than the head of the Cow Clan that the members respected enough.
The person’s coolness and leadership felt more deadly than the energy waves that wanted to kill me just now.
Of course, I had no intention of shutting my mouth still.
“If you’re not going to attack me, are you going to the bamboo forest to carry out your operation again? If the chill disappears, it will be hard to find what you’re looking for.”
They want to find the road that connects the bamboo forest to Mt. Cheonik.
Jukho, the chief sorcerer of the Tiger Clan, is the owner of the garden there.
Jukho uses the earth power from Mt. Cheonik to maintain the bamboo forest and garden hidden.
Although the bamboo forest is outside the boundary, I heard that there’s a passage built there to draw and use earth power.
When I heard that during the operations meeting, I better saw the Black Screen’s intentions.
Although the entire Eungwang District has strong earth power, it’s said that Eungwang High, the center of the territory, is particularly powerful.
The Black Screen will aim for the bamboo forest outside the boundary and its connection path that draws on earth power.
The reason why the Black Screen used the Long Tail Cow Clan here, which stayed hidden for a long time, was for their secret agenda.
‘I’m sure there’s another reason why the clan head isn’t here.’
Based on the information I obtained before Christmas, I had a sense of where the head of the Cow Clan was and what he was doing.
But his task will take more time.
Perhaps the Black Screen distorted the time outside and inside the school to attack students more efficiently and to buy time for the Cow Clan head to move.
So now was the time to deal with the men in front of me instead of the clan head.
“It looks like we can’t let you go since you know what we’re up to. I’ll destroy all your tricks and catch you. I’ll cut your dirty mouth and get your head.”
Seven presences turned to me as if they had been waiting for their leader’s words.
They prioritized to attack me over their original mission.

Those people would’ve tried to search for the connecting passage from outside and inside at the same time.
Since the Cow Clan will be distracted by me, the number of royal lineages to attack the bamboo forest will decrease.
That’s how much burden is on this side.
“Don’t kill him. The source of information has to be identified.”
“Will it be alright as long as we don’t kill him?”
“That’s right. He doesn’t need his arms and legs to talk.”
Shwiiik!
A flash went before my eyes.
The identity of the flash was energy waves condensed in the form of a blade.
It flew from a low position, obviously trying to cut my leg to prevent me from escaping.
But the blade didn’t reach me.
I immediately activated the card hidden in my hand.
<Light skill Player Identity activated.>
<Skill Leap activated.>
Fwaabak!
As I kicked the ground and jumped up, my field of view changed in an instant and the energy wave blade sent my way completely missed.
What I used was Baekho-gun’s leap skill.
I don’t know if anyone here expected me to show the leap skill to the level of a mythical Tiger.
It feels like they stopped at the sight of me jumping so high.
I measured the position of the blade that flew through the trees and counterattacked with my energy gun.
Bang! Bang bang bang! Bang!
Hwik!
I identified the positions of five of them.
None of the bullets I shot, but I felt them avoid the bullets which tells me that I correctly estimated their positions.
My flight time was long as I jumped high, and the cows aimed at me again.
“How silly. There’s no escape in the sky. Attack at the same time. Don’t let him kick trees and change direction.”
They were ready to use the energy wave blade again.
The reason why they’re using that kind of attack instead of a light skill or skill is probably to leave no trace.
The attack itself was simple, but there was no way to avoid it if seven royal lineages shot an energy blade while I was in a leap state.
But I didn’t jump to the sky for nothing.
I activated another card.
The main character was Saeum of April.
<Skill Flight activated.>
Hwik!
I can now fly freely in the sky.
I used Saeum of April’s flight skill and flew away and the energy wave blade missed again, cutting only the air and a few branches along the way.
Flight skills aren’t common, and the first skill I used earlier wasn’t a flight skill.
The Cow Clan people who were careless lamented.
“A flight skill user. How annoying.”
“Gather the minions on standby to the sky.”
I knew well that I couldn’t last long in the sky.
I even debated against flying because I was wary of enemies in the sky.
Now it was just a trick to avoid this attack.
Hwik!
I plunged to the ground and landed on the floor.
The Cow Clan exclaimed, not expecting me to suddenly land where they were again.
“…! He went down.”
“That bastard is looking down on us! Get him!”
I heard the voices of the subordinates, not the leader.
I could feel their presence fly toward me here and there as if they had no intention of hiding.
I took out another card, not intending to get caught by them.
<Light skill Player Identity activated.>
<Skill Sprinter activated.>
The characters I used were the grown versions of Min Geurin and Kim Yuri.
Min Geurin had naturally fast feet, and Kim Yuri had the ability to accelerate for a short time.
I started running on Mt. Cheonik with the two’s powers but the distance between me and the cows wasn’t narrowed.
“You were boasting like that earlier, but the only thing you can do is run! Do you think you can play us like that?!”
“Quit talking and show us what you can do!”
As much as I wanted to do that, I had more efficient means right now.
It was a rather unpleasant move, but I couldn’t help it because I had to deploy everything efficiently.
“No, this is…”
“Be careful!”
Kwaakwang! Fwoong!
I heard a series of explosions behind me, but I ran without stopping.
The trap set up by the Class 3-0 sunbaes was fierce, but not all of the cows were caught.
I found the position of five of them when I jumped into the sky, but some of them were careful.
Booom! Boom!
Explosions reverberated nonstop.
After that, I felt that there were fewer people chasing me.
Woo Kihwan managed to set up the traps based on the location I got from the bullets in a short time and the route I told him about, but only three cows seemed to be caught.
‘Four people left!’
As the explosions decreased, I heard a voice again from behind.
“Looks like all your traps have run out. Did you think this was the only way you could get us all?”
But as soon as the words ended, a fog began to rise behind me.
The heavy fog was thick enough to block the view.
It was the Mist of Night Silence, Gye Idam’s light skill. Read the most updated version of this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at Novel Multiverse – “NovelMultiverse dot com”
