A Reincarnated Professor at the Constellation Academy

Spider Hunt (2)

The campus, immersed in darkness, was silent.

I was fine because I had good night vision, but Estelle couldn’t walk and was uneasy.

I told her to turn on the lights to draw attention, but Estelle shook her head.

Then she reached out her beautiful hand and grabbed the collar of my waistband.

“What are you doing?”

“Because we have to conserve mana.”

How much does it cost to light a fire?

I suggested several times, but she responded by holding the collar firmly.

Anyone could see that it was an extremely selfish act, but there was no particular restraint.

Darkness is a strange fear for students.

If you can hold on to your mental cords that are about to shake, you can give up at least the collar.

“By the way, Professor.”

“What.”

“I bought this.”

I saw her out of the blue.

The shiny silver gun barrel stands out.

It was a revolver.

“It wouldn’t be a weapon suitable for you.”

“Seeing the professor write it, I wanted to try it.”

“So, are you asking me to teach you how to write?”

she shakes her head

It wouldn’t be too difficult.

I’m not asking you to teach me how to shoot again.

“Are you curious about how to put magic into a gun?”

“Yes.”

“Hmm···.”

estimating location and time.

There is quite a distance to the place where the core of the barrier is.

The capella coffin is wide enough to walk for 10 minutes, and there must be demons in between.

It was not a bad condition to teach as an attribute.

“First of all, we must grasp the structure of the revolver without exception using magical power.”

“Yeah.”

“The barrel, the trigger, the chamber and even the loaded bullet.”

“···Done.”

The answer is one beat late.

It won’t be easy for beginners.

Putting mana into a gun is so difficult that it is difficult even for a moderately skilled person.

“Now, pull the trigger, connect the magic in the order of the ball, the chamber, the casing, the gunpowder, and the bullet.”

“Yeah?”

“And if you infuse a magic formula into the connected magical energy, the bullet will be imbued with supernatural power.”

“ah···?”

Estelle finally raised her question.

Most people get stuck here.

People think that it is only necessary to strengthen bullets, but that is not the case at all.

How do bullets fly?

Your finger pulls the trigger, the gun strikes the casing, and the gunpowder is ignited.

It is only after that that the bullet flies off and pierces the enemy.

It is fundamentally different from swords and bows, which can be simply held and swung or shot with a string.

You can tell just by looking at Estelle tilting her head and being embarrassed.

“Don’t be impatient. It’s difficult in the first place.”

“How did the professor write this?”

“I practiced.”

“·······.”

I’m not joking, I practiced until it really bleeds.

The grip is such that the holding hand is torn and the finger that pulls the trigger bleeds.

“Estel. Your ability is ‘star fire’.”

“···Yeah.”

“It’s good to put it in bullets. Since multiple attributes are put into one ability, the synergy will be good.”

I asked her to raise the torch for a while.

Tilting her head, she raised the torch in her hand, and I immediately scanned the torch’s magic structure.

Complex.

It was one of the most complex magic structures I’ve ever seen, but it seemed like it could be reproduced somehow.

Arousing magical power, I carefully concocted the formula according to the structure of the torch I just saw.

After about 5 seconds of concentration, the reconstruction was finished, and the moment I activated it, her torch burned in my hand.

“How did the professor do that…?”

“It was reconstructed by inverting the structure of magical power. It’s nothing special.”

All I can bring out is a torch no bigger than a torch.

Compared to the ‘real’ torch that Estelle handles, it falls far short of it.

Blow it into the gun and connect it along the structure.

The flared torch was wrapped around the barrel and burned brilliantly, and a golden flash exploded and a bullet was fired.

The bullets entwined in the holy fire pierced the head of the Witchbeast that was running towards us through the darkness.

“You can do it like this.”

“·······.”

At the same time as the hit, I saw the magic beast burning and turning to ashes.

It’s a great effect, but for me, it wasn’t enough to use in practice.

Because it was reproduced forcibly, time and magic were inefficient.

“Prepare soon… Estelle?”

“·······.”

“Estel.”

“… Ah. Yes, Professor. Yes.”

“Be alert and prepare. We have arrived.”

I woke the half-fazed woman and looked ahead.

Before we knew it, we arrived at the central hall, the center of Capella’s coffin, and the nucleus that formed the barrier began to be visible to the naked eye.

Around the black core of light, I could see a number of simple gates shimmering black.

The gate, which seemed to have been created with that nuclear weapon, was still spitting out demonic beasts.

“·······.”

And, in front of him, there was a single assailant.

Wearing a robe, probably the instigator of this incident.

The gaze hidden in the shadows turned to us.

*

Estelle doubted her eyes.

what did i just see?

‘You used my torch…the same.’

Does Yujin Kang also have a torch?

No, it can’t be.

When Seonghwa first awakened, he was confirmed to have a unique ability in all dimensions.

It must have been what the family constellation said.

In other words, it means that the sacred painting Kang Yu-jin used was truly an analysis of Estelle’s sacred painting and reproduced with pure magical power.

‘Oh My God.’

Is there anyone in Helios who can do this?

I bet there won’t be a single one.

Even Professor Skadi, a master of magic, saw Estelle’s torch and called it ‘a noble flame that only you can use’.

But Yujin Kang did it.

That too, only seeing it once.

The ability to reverse-calculate and recreate the magic structure of an ability that has only been seen once.

There was no other way to explain it other than that it was truly overwhelming genius.

Estelle had heard many stories from a young age that there would be no genius surpassing her.

However, now I could be sure that was wrong.

A genius who surpassed himself was right in front of his eyes.

‘If this professor…’

If it was Yujin Kang, if it was under him.

you can learn more

The grace of ‘learning’ that was lost a long time ago can be received from him.

My heart was pounding.

After walking alone for a long time, it felt like I had finally met a guide who would light up my future.

Maybe that’s why, the torch burning in Yujin Kang’s hands.

To Estelle, it felt like a torch shining in front of her.

“…Stel.”

“·······.”

“Estel.”

“… Ah. Yes, Professor. Yes.”

i made this mistake

Am I too excited to answer?

But what can you do? I’ve seen that

He sighed to himself and nodded his head. It is unavoidable.

Wouldn’t the professor choose something like an assistant?

If I choose, I will apply right away.

Thoughts of this kind and that, again, thoughts leak to other places.

What awakened her thoughts was the voice of an uninvited guest coming from the front.

“What are you? Why are you here?”

A voice that I don’t want to hear, as if it had been altered once.

Estelle’s expression cooled coldly at the appearance of the intruder.

It’s been a long time since I’ve been alone, but I’m going to have a good time.

Her hard gaze studied the assailant.

A robe wrapped tightly around the body and a demon so dense that the skin tingled.

Estelle was able to grasp the identity of her opponent at once.

“Professor. It’s Mine.”

Yujin Kang nodded.

Helios is a Mine, if anyone had heard of it, they would have been shocked.

Helios, which is considered the safest in all dimensions, was not an issue that could be easily overlooked.

-Kiii…

Suddenly, demonic beasts gathered and surrounded the two.

A demon resembling a giant spider.

It was the Shelop that Estelle had encountered in the border area not too long ago.

“All intermediate?”

There must be no command object here to control a mid-level monster like this?

It wasn’t normal for so many Shelops to move in an orderly manner.

“Kuhuhh…. The professor of the Great Mathematics and his students? Hooh. Indeed.”

The monster’s gaze scanned the two of them.

The eyes that stayed for a moment on Eugene reached Estelle, and greed shone under the shade of the hood.

“Altaïr’s only daughter. Is today my birthday?”

“·······.”

“The world says it’s the light closest to the stars… A precious offering came to me.”

Estelle’s expression crumpled.

It was very unpleasant to scan myself with dirty eyes.

Contempt and disgust welled up and the torch was lit fiercely.

However, before the torch could catch fire, Yujin Kang’s hand stopped her.

He naturally hid Estelle behind his back and stood in front of the assailant.

“professor?”

“Stay behind me.”

Acts of apparent protection.

Estelle looked at Yujin Kang’s back and blinked blankly.

“Don’t intervene, professor nerd.”

“You know me.”

“Yes. I know. Great Mathematics-“

“no.”

Interrupting the stranger’s words, he took a step forward.

The revolver held in both hands is imbued with magical power, and the bleak flames burn brightly like a ogre’s fire.

It was as if it were a ghost surrounded by blue demons in the dark.

“I was asking if you knew ‘me’ as a hunter.”

“What nonsense…”

“I don’t know.”

he walks

“If you knew, you wouldn’t be able to relax.”

Horrible magical energy spreads out in all directions.

A shadow spreading in the blue flame.

It was a signal that informed that the hunter had arrived on the battlefield.

bang!

A revolver engulfed in flames flashed.

A burst of bullets cut through the darkness and shattered the head of one of the Shelops.

– Key profit!

They roared menacingly and retreated into the darkness outside the flames.

angle to angle.

In pitch-black darkness, the sound of spiders’ footsteps draws a circle.

“Professor. I’ll light-“

“Not required.”

He pointed his gun into the darkness where nothing could be seen.

bang!

bullets are fired

Slap!

The Witchbeast’s head was smashed.

bang! bang! bang!

He pulled the trigger in succession without looking away.

Only the two arms moved quickly and pierced the monsters without an inch of error.

Estelle realized.

Now, Yujin Kang read Shelop’s mind and grasped its location.

You know where they’re going, what they’re going to do, and their purpose, so you don’t have to look for them or even look away.

Shelob, who had filled the surroundings, suddenly began to explode and roll on the floor.

There was no battle or anything.

This was just a massacre.

Scattering bullets cause screams.

I swallowed a dry saliva as I watched Yujin Kang slaughtering the monsters casually.

‘Can I do that too?’

He looked down at his hand, but then shook his head.

If you use the torch, you will be able to catch it.

However, like Yujin Kang, he cannot handle them one at a time efficiently.

Because of Shelop’s movement between darkness and blind spots, he had to cast a torch in a wide area, and by the time he caught them all, his mana would have run out.

Even if I caught all the shlops, I would have been beaten by the assailant in front of me.

But Yujin Kang is fine.

If it wasn’t for the smell of gunpowder, he was so calm that he wouldn’t even know he was fighting.

In reality, he probably didn’t use much magic.

Keying-!!

The chambers of the two revolvers are rotated and looped.

Mana rushes forward, and the magic formula dwells in the bullet.

「Penetration」 「Distortion」 「Dispel」

The three magic formulas were mixed to form the magic formula of “Spell Destruction”.

There was no superfluity, and even Estelle admired the neat magic expression.

Kwachang!

The bullets fired in succession destroyed the construction formula of the simple gate that the assailant had opened.

The gate, which shook filthyly, collapsed in its supporting structure and eventually disappeared as if it melted into thin air.

“·······.”

Silence fell.

In a place where no one spoke, Estelle looked at Yujin Kang’s back.

The hunter’s back that never shakes.

Estelle wanted to learn a little more from him.
