Regressor Takes Everything - Chapter 45

The world’s No. 1 Round Academy in the U.K. and No. 2 Chinese Cheonmu Palace. And Sungjin Military Academy in Korea, which ranked third, beating St. University in the U.S.

The magic technique creation competition, held by the three organizations in cooperation, spread to the Hunter industry in a blink of an eye, and the guilds who heard the news belatedly moved busily.

One of the most talented people from all over the world will participate in this competition. From the perspective of the guild, it was a mouth-watering market, and it competed with blood to get in the position somehow.

It is a big event that has made the entire Hunter industry more turbulent than just a school competition.

“What do you think?”

Ban Hye-young, the author of the incident, smiled and looked at Kang Yoo-sik.

“……I’m sure I asked for an on-campus conference, is that my mistake?”

“Isn’t this an on-campus competition? It’s a preliminary round.”

“…….”

Kang Yoo-sik smiled bitterly at Ban Hye-young’s sly response. I asked you to increase the scale so that all the students can participate, and you raised it to the world-class.

It was distributed beyond imagination as much as her talent.

‘Well, there’s nothing bad about it.’

As Ban Hye-young said, the preliminary round will not be disrupted in the fight against Chiruni Archibald within each school.

A little unexpected is that if it goes well, they will participate in the finals in June, but I am also supplementing the preliminary entries, so there is no waste of time except to participate in the presentation ceremony.

Kang Yoo-sik, who realized again that it could be a better opportunity than originally planned, bowed at Ban Hye-young.

“Thank you.”

“No problem. Well, I’m a little tired of trying to convince the two old men, but…… what… hmmm!”

Kang Yoo-sik smirked at Ban Hye-young’s glance over here.

“I’ll work hard on my thesis.”

“Yeah! Today’s thesis…….”

“When the competition is over.”

“……Huh?”

Ban Hye-young looked blank at Kang Yoo-sik’s tell and soon opened her eyes wide to see if she realized something.

“Wait….”

“I have to do my best to participate in the contest. Can you spare me that much?”

No matter how much you know your future knowledge, you can’t afford to write a paper and even create a magic trick to submit to the competition.

“Oh… oh, my…….”

Ban Hye-young, who was distracted by the scale and did not think of the problem, bowed her head, disheveling her head, and soon sighed deeply.

“Yeah, well… I can’t help it. The thesis is urgent, but I’m also curious about what your entries will be.”

“Thank you for understanding.”

“Instead, you have to write hard during the summer vacation after the final exam. I can’t give up on this.”

Kang Yoo-sik smiled lightly at Ban Hye-young’s blazing eyes.

“Yes, I will work hard to finish it during the summer vacation.”

“Hmm. Good.”

Ban Hye-young, who nodded with a satisfied look, asked with a curious look as she filled the empty glass with tea.

“Have you decided what you’re going to make?”

“Well…… I have a few things in mind. I don’t know if I can.”

“Use an empty room in the lab if you need a place to study. I’ll lend you the ingredients if you need them.”

“Huh… are you sure?”

When asked by Kang Yoo-sik, Ban Hye-young nodded.

“It doesn’t matter if I’m not involved in making it.”

“Then I owe you a little.”

I was going to ask for a place to study and materials, but if this happens, there is no more problem to think about. Kang Yoo-sik stood up after finishing preparations for the competition.

“Are you going already?”

“Yes, I’m going to go to the specialized class teachers and tell them that I won’t be able to participate for a while.”

“Oh, well, that’s better than texting.”

“Then I’ll see you tomorrow.”

Kang Yoo-sik, who bowed his head, left the research center and headed for the main building of the Silver Class, and sat face to face with Han Moo-jin in the cadet counseling room as before.

“Now that we’re done with the theory, I’m going to start right……sigh.”

“I’m sorry. It’s a very important competition.”

Han Moo-jin gave a slightly disappointing look to Kang Yoo-sik’s story but nodded as if he understood.

“Well, it’s a shame to let it go. Three of the top 10 guilds have joined as sponsors this time.….”

“Has it been decided yet?”

Kang Yoo-sik, who only knew that the guilds were competing for seats, asked with a surprised look, and Han Moo-jin nodded.

“It hasn’t been disclosed to the public yet, but the Chun-il of Korea, the Royal Knights of England, and White lily of China. These are the three.”

“Well, that’s one of each school.”

“It’s supposed to be between acquaintances. The competition itself was held suddenly by Ban Hye-young.”

Rather than attracting various guilds and institutions to randomly call the size of the competition, it must have ended at a moderate level among those who used to interact.

No matter who did it, Kang Yoo-sik looked satisfied with its clean work and recalled the memories of the guilds that were selected as sponsors.

“Chun-il and the Royal Knights held out until returning…… the White Lily had collapsed.’

Although the potential was excellent enough to grow to the world’s No. 1, the guild was disbanded immediately after failing to stop the mega gate wave that devastated Beijing.

It can be seen as an honorable death because it disappeared with a backlash that would hit the Chinese Hunter industry alone, but it remained the same that it could not endure anyway.

‘Hmm. If the future doesn’t change, I’d better meet people who can use White Lily.’

Kang Yoo-sik, who decided which guild to make friendship with first, looked at Han Moo-jin again.

“I’ll be away until I’m done preparing for the competition.”

“Yes, yes. I will teach Kim Jin-hyuk. Instead, don’t regret that you should’ve learned it early, right?”

Kang Yoo-sik smiled inwardly at Han Moo-jin’s question.

‘That’s not gonna happen.’

Whether you are an actor or Kim Jin-hyuk is an actor, the results will not change. This is because he recommended Kim Jin-hyuk with this situation in mind in the first place.

‘I’m a little sorry, but he’s genius to learn fast.’

Wouldn’t it be okay to take two or three of them with the connection fee? Thinking so, Kang Yoo-sik nodded with a refreshing look.

“I will do my best not to regret it.”

The magic research department located inside the Tower of Babel.

Facilities provided with the support of the school shone brilliantly, and trophies and awards won at each competition were decorated everywhere.

Among the clubs in the Seongjin Academy, the Magic Research Division is one of the top clubs. It was a club where all cadets were proud of themselves.

“How the hell do you handle things?”

Now, there was a cold atmosphere that had to lower the gaze to the floor.

“Did I give you a hard job? I have given you the right amount of work as a teacher.”

“Well, that’s….”

“I don’t need an excuse. We’ve already got the results.”

Archibald looked coldly at Lee Jae-kyung, who couldn’t even lift his head properly.

“Kang Yoo-sik took a class with Ban Hye-young, and now he’s out of control, and even broke your terrible barrier, so his reputation has increased.”

“…….”

Lee Jae-kyung was humiliated by Archibald’s look at him, but could not say anything about it.

The moment he signed a contract with the Hague Guild. Archibald was not a cadet, but his superiors.

“And most of all, Miss. Ban Hye-young……to make me hate myself.… such a piece of crap.….”

Kugugugung!

Archibald’s hands shook with intense emotion, and as if to respond to the emotion, the entire room began to shake in the aftermath of the spell power flowing out.

The amount of spell power is comparable to that of an A-class hunter. Lee Jae-kyung bowed his head silently to Archibald’s appearance, which seemed natural to surpass him in the future.

“……Whoa.”

Archbald, who had been scattering his spell power for a long time, looked at Lee Jae-kyung with cold eyes as if his anger had subsided.

“That’s enough. I didn’t expect much from you from the beginning.”

“……I’m sorry.”

“Get out.”

Lee Jae-kyung, who bowed his head, went out of the poor, and Archbald, who was looking contemptuously at the back, turned to the table.

Dozens of frames on the table. There were all pictures of Ban Hye-young in them, and she was photographed using magic at various ages, from her student days to her time as a hunter.

“How come you don’t know how I feel…….”

Archbald, who murmured with his voice, stroked the frame, and soon bit his lips.

“It’s all because of that lowly, Kang Yoo-sik…….”

There is nothing I like about the frivolous appearance he showed at the first meeting and the fact that he stuck to Ban Hye-young and escaped.

Archibald, who was angry just by recalling his face, again took his breath and looked at the document on the table from the frame.

[Magic Creation Contest Application]

“Still…… you’ll soon know how I feel.”

Now she is deceived by the shallow magic full of a bluff, but she will surely open her eyes again if she sees the number of “hidden strategies” he has hidden so far.

The power that I’ve been hiding to show at a critical moment. Archibald took it out only to crush Kang Yoo-sik.

“Please wait a little longer. Miss Ban Hye-young.”

He was convinced of his victory again.

* * *

The empty lab inside Ban Hye-young’s lab.

Outside, Kang Yoo-sik looked at the documents on the desk in a room equipped with facilities that would be comparable to the lab of a large research institute.

All were written about the magic produced by Archibald with the results of the contest, which the Magic Research Department won.

‘Specialized in defensive magic.’

Since entering the school, Archibald’s main focus has been defensive magic, especially in the great magic battle.

Therefore, if you look at these records, it’s easy to think that Archibald’s specialty is related to defensive magic.

‘You managed to hide it.’

Kang Yoo-sik knew all about his real ability.

(Recircle Mage)

Recircle. It is a word for the reverse calculation of spell power, and its effectiveness refers to the ability to read the opponent’s spell power structure and reverse it and break it down.

In other words, Archibald’s real specialty was not defensive magic, but the recircle magic that destroyed the opponent’s spell power, which was why he was considered a suspect in the disaster-class devil Tagirion.

‘He’s got a lot of talent in him, too.’

Recircle magic itself is not a type that anyone can use because it requires natural talent in an uncommon family.

Therefore, it is usually only possible if they have their own skills or have an overwhelming skills gap, which Archibald was the former and has been hiding.

“But this time, I’ll take it out no matter what.’

In other situations, I may have checked it more, but Ban Hye-young is a judge and above all, she participates.

Considering the impatient nature that he even used Lee Jae-kyung because of the provocation in the morning, it is clear that he will bring out a secret move this time.

‘Come to think of it, he’s a weird guy.’

If he had just revealed his ability, he would have been more likely to attract Ban Hye-young’s attention.

If he’s been hiding it to use it at a critical moment, it’s a great guy as it is.

“It’s not like you’re saying that you’re going to save something for nothing’s wrong?

The person you’ve met with so much care for hiding it is me who knows all the secrets. It was typical worthless behavior, which hid its power but did not get any benefit at all.

Thinking of Archibald, who must be confident of his victory by now, Kang Yoo-sik smiled and looked at the magical plan that only wrote down the title first.

[Magic Reverse Calculation Domination]

Ten years from now, I was going to show him the skill that he could barely reach.
