A Reincarnated Professor at the Constellation Academy

Midterm exam (4)

Professor Roshua’s office.

In a cluttered place full of paperwork, numerous screens were currently illuminating various places of the record.

“Isn’t it really too much to use my office as a control room…?”

He murmured grimly as he watched the household items pushed to the corner of his office.

“It’s all your business. The future has been decided since I was captured by Helios.”

Mason, speaking quietly, patted Roshua on the shoulder.

His eyes lit up as they scanned dozens of screens.

“Ohhh. Is what I’m seeing really real?”

children taking exams.

All of them were attempting to interfere, large or small, with the magic of the record.

All of them were those who had listened to Kang Yu-jin’s special lecture, and they were calculating the magical power of the record using the three formulas he announced.

The wall that had been built in the name of impossibility for a long time was shattered by a man named Yujin Kang.

“I didn’t know that I would see such a sight in my life. It’s one of my worst regrets not to hear his special lecture.”

“That’s why I told you, old man.”

“Yeah! I mean, don’t you mean you want to hear from me? I’m not a gangster like you.”

“Someone said it was a bang!”

Skadi screamed, but Mason cleared his ears and ignored it.

And then, he carved into his eyes the wondrous sight created by Kang Yoo-jin.

I came here in case of an emergency, but I didn’t feel like I needed to step out.

The seeds sown by Kang Yoo-jin have already succeeded in transforming that dangerous record into a perfect test site.

“The more I see him, the more amazing he is. If possible, I’d like to take him to Awencal’s Magic Tower.”

“Wouldn’t the Most Holy Heaven allow it?”

“… that’s why I’m so lamentable.”

Yujin Kang’s hinterland, Laniakea, is the noblest star called the Empress of the Constellation.

No matter how outstanding Mason’s reputation was, he couldn’t even take out his business card in front of her reputation, where even the constellation was fading.

“Eh… but isn’t that a bit strange?”

“What?”

A professor who was looking at the screen opened his mouth.

“One student is missing.”

A little over 700 students entered the record today.

The Situation Room is locating all of them, but strangely, one person has not been located.

“Jason von Dalton… I don’t see any restraint from the Dalton family.”

“The traitor family?

“Still, it has to be visible on camera. Jason, in particular, is the son of terrorist Andrei, so there should be a lot more cameras attached to surveillance…”

No matter how much I turn the camera, Jason is nowhere to be seen.

In the end, Roshua and Skadi stepped out.

“I’ll have to get into the records. It’s in trouble if something breaks.”

“Ego… I was wondering if you could rest in peace.”

“I also cut taxes. First of all, I was also invited to be in charge of safety.”

With Mason following behind, the three quickly headed to the record.

The situation room where they disappeared.

A professor sitting in the corner smiled faintly.

“Oh wow. It’s dark.”

A landscape of records immersed in darkness and starlight.

Encia was amazed by all of that.

Forgetting that this was an exam, she was engrossed in capturing the landscape of the record.

-Ansia. We’re having a hard time…

– Oppose unfair labor! Improving the working environment!

-Ms. Ansia… Do you know what the Labor Standards Act is…?

“Oh, I’m sorry, guys.”

The environment of the record was not good for the spirits.

Encia’s holy power protects them, but the mighty magic power of the record occasionally breaks through the holy power and strikes them.

“Let’s find that shrew rat quickly and go out.”

For Encia, the test results were actually good.

As Vega’s daughter, she didn’t have a problem making a living without a Helios diploma.

Rather, because of her birth as an angelic tribe, those who wanted her even without special degrees were widespread.

There is only one thing Encia wants. It was all about revealing Kang Yoo-jin’s secret.

She wanted to quickly finish this test and go to Kang Yu-jin’s side as soon as possible.

“Huh? What is this?”

However, her gaze caught something foreign.

A marble fell in the corner of the record’s bizarre bush.

“Wow. It’s a terrible color, isn’t it?”

-You can’t just pick up strange things and then Encia…

After carefully examining the beads, she immediately figured out the magic on the beads.

“Are you under a perception-damping spell?”

In order not to be found, the beads had a perception-deterrent spell applied to them.

It would be difficult to detect or even feel its presence because it had an extremely low presence, but it was magic that Encia, who could see through the truth, had.

– Doesn’t it look suspicious just by looking at it?

“Oh! Then, can’t you get points if you take this to the professor?”

-Yes···?

-Encia who makes things that don’t exist, what the hell are you…

After picking up the beads, Ensia completely forgot about the exam and skipped through the records.

It’s a place where darkness is at a distance, but her eyes see through the darkness of the record.

Besides, since she was familiar with the holy power and could feel the holy power of others, it was not too difficult to find Kang Yoo-jin’s location.

Because the holy power of Laniakea he embraces is more unique than any other holy power.

Encia ran to Kang Yu-jin, who came to the record to supervise the test.

“professor!”

“Why are you here?”

She held out the marble that Ensia was looking for towards him who looked already tired.

“I found this!”

“The test task must have been a shrew.”

“That’s right~ but this also seems pretty important!”

“·······.”

ha···.

Kang Yoo-jin, who sighed and accepted the bead, soon hardened her expression.

An orb endowed with an unusually large amount of cognition-disabling magic and all kinds of stealth magic.

Recognizing that the muddy air current hovering inside it was ‘Magi’, he turned to Ensia.

“Where did you find this?”

“Uh~ Nearby? I saw it on the way there, and there were many here and there.”

The marbles were scattered evenly across the record.

The number of marbles that Encia saw while visiting Kang Yu-jin was well over a hundred.

“Hey~ Professor? Did I do well?”

“·······.”

“Good job? Good job?”

Ensia grabbed her sleeve and shook it, but Kang Yujin didn’t answer.

I was about to stare at the beads without saying anything, but the artifact that was tied around my waist reacted.

It was a square artifact used as a walkie-talkie.

-Professor Yujin Kang. One student is missing.

“Who are you?”

-Jason von Dalton is a student. Right now, the camera can’t capture it anywhere.

“I’ll go now.”

Kang Yoo-jin, who put the marbles in, moved on in a hurry.

Wow. Is this idle play?

Ensia looked at him curiously as he strode out, and then followed suit, puffing out his cheeks.

How many hours have you been on record?

While most of the students were still wandering in the dark, Cynthia breathed heavily and spread her hands.

In her hand, the shrew, which was the subject of this test, was sitting with its bewildered eyes shining.

“It’s done…”

When the exam was over, I was filled with sadness.

Trembling in fear from the black darkness of the record, and fleeing surrounded by unknown native creatures…

It was a terrifying experience that made me want to cry, but the immediate results made up for it all.

“I’m so glad…”

At first, she thought it was a difficult test, but Cynthia, who studied Kang Yoo-jin’s lecture, knew that he had already put all the hints in the class.

I learned the precision of mana management through magic language, and I also learned how to feel and analyze mana.

In addition, the ‘formula for obtaining the movement of magical power’ learned in the special lecture.

Although the last course was very difficult, I was able to solve it somehow thanks to memorizing the formula learned in the special lecture over and over again.

And the result is this.

She smiled at the shrew, whose cheeks were swollen with two chocolate balls.

“Now let’s go outside with me, okay?”

“Yes, yes.”

While putting the shrew in his pocket, he also stroked Yongyong who poked out his head.

It was because Yongyong was the one who flew off and fetched the shrew while she was tracking magic power.

While organizing the luggage she had used during the test, Cynthia carefully touched her chest and felt a circle filled with magical energy.

Everything Yujin Kang taught me.

It wasn’t limited to the nature of ‘Great Mathematics’, which chased and tracked demons, but also affected the interpretation and interference of magical powers.

Calculating and reading the mana of records.

In the process, Cynthia naturally refined her chaotic magical power and felt that some of the refined magical power accumulated as it passed through the circle.

Kang Yoo-jin did not stop at the in-depth interpretation of the magic language and tracking the prey, but also led the students taking the test to enjoy the benefits of the record.

“amazing···.”

With the keywords ‘midterm exam’ and ‘record’, he prepared the best stage for students to grow.

Cynthia couldn’t help but admire Kang Yoo-jin’s ability and insight.

“When I go back… I’ll be sure to say thank you.”

As a disciple, I wanted to show even a little sincerity.

The moment I tried to use the return function by turning the bracelet while thinking about happiness.

Something flew out of the darkness and hit her bracelet hard.

“Aww!”

When I put my wrist together with a sharp pain, the bracelet was discolored black and sparks were flying.

“Uh…why is this…”

I hurriedly tried to use the return function, but the bracelet was already broken, so there was no answer.

The bracelet broke without knowing why, and her face turned into tears.

“cadet···.”

Without a bracelet, returning is difficult.

I have to find the warp gate I came in again, but it is not an easy task to retrace my path in this dark and vast record.

Can we go back in 5 hours?

Nervousness ran at the thought that I had to go before the shrew died.

The moment I was about to walk so fast.

Sabak-

Strange footsteps were heard.

“who···.”

Said Cynthia, turning to where the sound had come from.

The darkness of the record was so thick that I could barely see the outline of the opponent, but I couldn’t tell who it was.

In-young stopped right in front of Cynthia and opened her mouth.

“The bracelet won’t work.”

It was a hoarse voice.

However, the tone was familiar, and Cynthia recognized who he was at once.

“Jason…?”

In the past, he dragged Cynthia to the border area and was the main pillar of the group that harassed her.

Ahead of him, Cynthia opened her mouth in a timid voice.

“Pa… the bracelet doesn’t work… what do you mean…?”

“You’re literally an idiot.”

He stepped forward and revealed himself to the light.

Perhaps he had suffered from severe stress during that time, his face was haggard and looked like a beggar.

“I threw this and hit it.”

He pulled out a small jewel from his bosom and threw it at Cynthia.

An ominous jewel that emits black air currents from its cracked surface.

Cynthia involuntarily backed away from the jewel.

“Because the magic of records mixed with Magi is lethal to artifacts?”

“What… what are you talking about…?”

“By the way… aren’t you curious about what will happen to people?”

He snapped his fingers, and the ominous jewel began to glow black, consuming the light Cynthia had raised.

Seeing that, Jason laughed like a madman and murmured.

“When the record’s mana mixes with the magic, it’s said that it runs rampant like crazy and tears apart the magical structure, whether it’s an artifact or a circle.”

“What are you talking about…”

“Especially, for demons like you, that’s even worse.”

In an instant, Cynthia felt an excruciating pain in her chest and fell to the floor.

It was a pain that felt like my heart was being torn to pieces.

It’s the first time I’ve ever felt an unfamiliar pain.

Cynthia instinctively knew what it was.

Circle runaway.

The record’s mana, mixed with Magi, penetrated into the circle and collapsed the mana structure.

“How… ah… evil…!”

“hehehe. I don’t know who they are, but they gave me something good.”

Jason walked over to the fallen Cynthia and picked up the jewel that had fallen to the floor.

He clutched his chest and looked down at Cynthia, who was suffering, mockingly.

“Why… are you doing this…?”

“I mean. Now my family has been shattered. It’s because of Yujin Kang.”

And, that expression distorted like that of a demon.

“Because of that bastard, my father… the family collapsed. Just because he was an infiltrator of the Witchbeast.”

Jason’s father, Andrei, was killed by Aragos, and the family’s power declined rapidly.

Read at readwn.com

Jason’s family soon lost everything and was stripped of their title of nobility from the central plane.

It was like a death sentence for him, who was born as an aristocrat and had more pride than anyone else.

“Is that so wrong? My father is also desperate? Huh? When people are desperate…

Aren’t you able to use some magical powers?”

“Ah… bah… I’m too…”

“I’m going to get my revenge on that bastard. But… I’m not even bothered by you being fine?”

He squatted down in front of Cynthia, pulling her hair to make eye contact with his.

Looking at the teary face of the pain, he giggled as if it was pleasant.

“I didn’t like you from the start.”

“······!”

“It’s not enough that hybrids, who are neither human nor demon beasts, attend Helios, so while I’m falling, only you can escape unscathed.”

He muttered as if chewing and erecting.

“I don’t fucking like it.”

he said with a laugh.

“After all, you’re our accomplice, right?”

Cynthia trembled with fear.

that pure malice.

and fear of death.

Everything seemed to become fear and erode reason.

Cynthia crouched down in agony as if her heart was being torn to shreds and let out a muffled scream.

“Cough Cough…!”

Blood vessels are hot.

From the cough he had spit out, blood that had turned black gushed out.

The demon inside her ran out of control and began to erode her body.

At this rate, Cynthia would be consumed by the beast’s blood and her ego would evaporate.

And the only thing waiting after that was death due to the runaway circle.

‘It hurts… it hurts… Please help…someone please…’

She desperately hoped for someone’s help, but she knew it wouldn’t work.

Born as a demon, she was always alone, and there was no one to help her even when she was in danger.

She always endured the malice poured out on her with her tiny body.

‘someone···.’

It’s sad.

I just saw hope.

I thought I could get out of this bondage.

Fate seemed to pursue him so persistently.

“professor···.”

And finally, I called him.

The only one who saw himself as a human being.

In the pain and consciousness of receding, Cynthia called him one last time.

“yes.”

And.

like a lie

“Did you call?”

A voice was heard.

“What, what!”

“Jason Dalton.”

Out of the darkness, he appeared out of nowhere like a ghost and looked down at Jason.

His eyes were shining red with cold hostility.

“Get out in front of my students.”

With a ghastly voice, his hands squeezed Jason’s head, causing an explosion of mana.

Jason fell to the floor as his magic roared through Jason’s head.

“Keah… how… you…!”

Clearly all traces have been erased.

It was not caught on camera, and all signs were blocked.

how···!

In the agony caused by runaway magic, Jason twisted his body as if in a seizure while holding onto unresolved questions.

“It’s pointless to hide your presence from me.”

As long as the prey is alive, I never miss it.

He, chanting coldly, took Jason’s jewelry and broke it.

“Don’t worry. I won’t die.”

Kang Yoo-jin, who had walked past the seizure-ridden Jason, picked up the collapsed Cynthia.

A bright light formed on his hand, revealing Cynthia’s darkened vision.

“professor···.”

“Don’t tell me.”

“I… die…”

“You won’t die.”

Magical power rose from his hand into flames.

“Because I’m here.”
