A Reincarnated Professor at the Constellation Academy

ready(3)

Swirling Maggie.

Eyes that glow with phosphorescence.

It was an obvious sign of ‘demonization’.

A phenomenon in which the awakened demonic ego pushes out the human ego and takes over the body.

If left as it is, Cynthia’s ego will be eaten by the beast’s ego.

“Even if it imitated the magic beast’s mental attack, it wouldn’t have been mixed with demonic energy.”

As much as he knew Cynthia’s condition, he didn’t give the monster’s ego a chance to wake up.

There was only one reason why this happened, even though there was not even a hint of magi.

“Has the ego been awakened already?”

That the beast’s ego had already awakened, and for some reason it just went back to sleep.

I could find the reason in Cynthia’s red-hot bracelet.

‘Did that stop me? Karina must have given it to me.’

Even now, the bracelet was shining like a piece of heated iron, desperately suppressing demonic energy.

That must be why Cynthia’s magical transformation progressed so slowly.

“Ah… ah… evil…!”

A voice dotted with pain is mixed with the cry of an animal.

A pair of horns were growing from the head he was holding with both hands.

‘If I leave it like this, it will work.’

I broke through the rushing demon and approached her.

As soon as my hand touched it, I had a seizure and tried to rush at it.

“Evil…! Ah… it hurts…!”

“Be patient.”

I took off my gloves and grabbed the horn that was starting to form.

The monster’s blood mixed with Cynthia belonged to the Balaur.

The horns of dragons are the main organ that emits demonic energy, so it is urgent to remove the horns in order to suppress demonic energy.

Do not break or cut.

If that happened, the magi would flow back and Cynthia would suffer damage, so she had to purify it and make it crumble naturally.

Chii Ik-

The hands eroded by demonic energy burn black.

He endured the severe burning pain, raised his holy power, and pushed it into the horn.

The reason why it was holy power was because it was much more effective than magical power even though it was burdensome.

“Kyaaa!!”

When the opposite power begins to permeate, they begin to struggle like crazy.

Long, growing nails scratched my arms and face at random.

My mask fell off and my clothes were torn, but I didn’t move and continued to purify.

“”Close your mind””

During the purification, I continued to talk to Cynthia’s ego through Mind Control.

“”You are a human, not a demon”

The stronger the holy power is to purify demonic energy, the stronger the resistance.

The sharp demonic energy that stretched out here and there scratched his body.

Chest, forearms, sides, face.

The last one was a bit dangerous, so I turned my head slightly and the hat flew off.

The pain and bleeding were intense, but there was no time to take care of the wound.

If we stop now, the monster’s ego, feeling threatened, will run rampant even more.

“ah···.”

The phosphorescence in the eyes fades.

Among the remnants of the demon that had almost disappeared, faintly glowing red eyes looked at me.

Not Cynthia, but the eyes of the sleepy, nameless witch.

There were tears like dew in his eyes.

“I know. It must be confusing.”

I know that I was not born because I wanted to, nor did I wake up because I wished.

“But, that’s not your body.”

A single tear flowed from her ruby-colored eyes.

They were the tears of fear from the ego that had just been born.

“sorry.”

The last remaining handful of demons was also burned, and the horns that had grown were crumbled in the torch and disappeared.

Cynthia’s breathing returned to normal, and the suppressed screams died down.

Eventually, when the phosphorescent eyes retrieved the gun, Cynthia was completely conscious.

“Uh… what is this…”

As if he couldn’t understand the current situation, his red eyes blinked.

I looked around, and then her eyes met me.

“School…School, professor!?”

“Are you awake?”

His wide eyes trembled, and his face instantly turned red.

“Ah…yes, yes! Well, I’ve come to my senses…why, why are you like this… ahh…”

While talking gibberish, he covers his reddened face with both hands.

Is it really embarrassing?

Even if I tried to subdue it, it was buried under me.

It seemed that he had also successfully blocked the magic beast, so I got out of the way without any regrets.

“If you’ve come to your senses, that’s fine.”

When I got up, I started to feel my body properly.

The torn wounds on the fingernails and magi were bitter.

The wounds that Magi had infiltrated hurt as if they were rotting alive, and the bleeding was considerable, and the blood flowed.

The hand that held the horn turned black like a lump of charcoal, and it seemed like it would take a while to purify it.

“uh···?”

Cynthia stood up from her seat and her clothes were damp with red water.

Margie had cut quite deep and was bleeding profusely, and it seems that she even threw away her clothes.

I clicked my tongue lightly, but Cynthia looked at me with a trembling gaze.

“Professor…are you hurt…?”

It was only then that Cynthia’s eyes trembled as if an earthquake had occurred.

Instinctively, he seemed to know what he had done.

He covered the wound with his clothes.

It wasn’t something to show off to students.

“School, professor… that’s it…”

“It’s not your fault.”

I didn’t notice that the witch’s ego had awakened.

I just thought it would be okay if I didn’t expose it to Magi.

That’s why during the Mine Search operation the other day, I only put up barriers to block demonic energy.

I would have thought that even a weak mental stimulation would have awakened the Witchbeast.

If the demons were capable of mental attacks, it would have gone very wrong.

“This lecture was my mistake. I failed to consider your situation.”

“Ah, no! The professor has nothing to apologize for…”

Cynthia was whipped, but I had no choice but to have a bitter taste.

To think that he was so complacent after going through Maria’s work.

The amount was still insufficient.

“I think you need to discuss your problem separately. Come see me later.”

She nodded vigorously.

“Can you move?”

“yes···.”

“Then go back now. The lecture is over.”

I picked up the fallen hat and wrapped my hand in a bandage from the weapon case.

It seems to be a little uncomfortable until all the darkly permeated demonic energy is purified.

However, despite being told to go, Cynthia hesitated in place.

“Do you have anything to say?”

“No… it’s not like that…”

“Then I would have told you to go back. Don’t make me say it twice.”

“···Yeah.”

As if reluctantly, he bowed his head stiffly.

When Cynthia left like that, it was only then that she realized that her mouth was empty.

“Tsk. Is it torn?”

When I go back, I will have to mend my mask.

*

“ha···.”

After leaving the auditorium, Cynthia stopped in place and let out a deep sigh.

“What do we do···.”

I’ve seen signs from before, but this time I got the job done properly.

I didn’t have any problems lately, so I thought it was okay, but I didn’t expect that magical beast transformation would take place in the spirit world lecture.

Putting aside the scary thing, I felt so sorry for the professor.

Cynthia cried when she saw his blood-soaked clothes.

“I’ll have to apologize properly later…”

I told you to come, so I must apologize then.

I was walking stealthily, lest anyone see my blood-soaked clothes, but as I was about to leave the auditorium building, I heard a voice next to me.

“Vinous-throated parrotbill.”

“Aww!”

When I turned around in surprise, there was Estelle sitting on a garden bench.

Have you not gone home yet?

She responded in a trembling voice.

“Muh, what’s going on?”

“You’ve been waiting…”

Then, Estelle’s eyes saw Cynthia’s blood-soaked clothes.

His gaze sharpened at once, and his blue eyes widened.

“What is that?”

“Ah… this is…”

Estelle’s gaze gradually narrowed as she stuttered for a moment at a loss for words.

“That. It’s not your blood.”

“Uh…”

Estelle approached and stopped right in front of Cynthia’s nose.

Fearing that, I tried to step back, but she reached out and grabbed Estelle’s clothes tightly.

Then, now hardened, I buried my face in the crispy clothes and smelled it.

“Eh, Estelle…!?”

“this.”

The eyes, which became even more ferocious, glared at Cynthia.

“Is it Professor’s blood?”

“···yes.”

Estelle placed Cynthia’s clothes.

Emotions surged in his blue eyes.

Her gaze was like a flame, like a blue wisp of fire burning his brother.

“You don’t need to worry. Baepsae.”

“·······.”

Then, he took a step back and looked at Cynthia.

She seemed to understand at once.

The work of Cynthia, who ran out of control, and Kang Yu-jin, who threw herself to save her.

Otherwise he wouldn’t have shed so much blood.

“·······.”

Estelle’s eyes twitched.

Time. jealousy. envy. Remorse.

Emotions that did not suit her flowed in her blue eyes.

“Professor, he must have saved you by throwing himself without hesitation.”

“·······.”

“Because you know that the blood of the beast flows through your body.”

She clenched both fists.

“…it’s not fair.”

Even to yourself.

Will Kang Yoo-jin devote his time alone to help with all his might?

probably not

It won’t be.

Because he was always a kid who did well on his own.

“Professor.”

He was the first to teach me.

It is a milestone that guides me.

Why are you hurting such a professor?

“You can’t bleed for something like this.”

I’m sorry.

Is it because right after seeing his fantasy?

Emotions were out of control, overflowing with emotions like a twisted lock.

“Don’t hurt the professor.”

“·······.”

her voice was desperate.

It wasn’t a warning or a reprimand, but it was a voice full of resentment and jealousy.

“If I also had the blood of a demon… would the professor take care of me like you?”

“uh···?”

“It’s not fair…”

Estelle turned around.

“… I’m glad you’re safe, baby.”

Then I walked towards the house.

Watching Estelle walk away, Cynthia stood nailed to her place for a while.

*

Yujin Kang’s lab.

In a place that is usually unpopular, Skadi visited after a long time.

I didn’t come here with a specific purpose.

I came here to have a chat about my thesis.

And there are things I want to brag about.

Because in this grading review, her professor’s grade went up to second class.

“Why aren’t you here?”

It’s been a while since the lecture was over.

I’m not the type of person who would want to go the other way, and I confirmed that I don’t have any schedules today.

“To make a woman wait for 30 minutes…!”

He patted his legs in the chair with his cheeks inflated.

Skadi’s eyes, which circled and looked around, turned to one corner of the lab again.

Equipment filled everywhere.

And in between, there was something that looked like an operating table covered with a glass dome.

“What the hell is that doing?”

Looking roughly at the shape, I can see that it is an advanced version of the ‘glass tube’ I brought back in the past.

Because the magic I felt was similar.

But I can’t even guess what it’s for.

Is there anything you can do to make it that big?

“It’s always easy to understand what he’s doing…”

From her blunt personality to the clothes she wears with only her eyes open.

A person who can’t figure out who he is.

so much-

“come!”

Footsteps are heard in the distance.

Hearing the neat and regular footsteps, I could tell that it was Yujin Kang.

Skadi, a snow leopard, could tell people apart by the sound of their footsteps.

“What are you doing so late… uhhh!?”

Skadi, who had risen from her chair, was the flagship.

It was because Kang Yoo-jin’s body, which entered the laboratory, was literally in a state of total wounds.

“What’s wrong with you!”

“It’s nothing.”

isn’t that a big deal?

His clothes were torn and blood was dripping all over his body.

He was bleeding so much that his black coat looked red.

“Why are your hands like this again!?”

“No fuss!”

“No! You don’t look like you’re making a fuss after seeing this!?”

At first glance, the hand covered in black burns looked serious.

It was clearly a wound eroded by demonic energy.

From the auditorium, she was steadily pushing her holy power, but the speed of recovery was very slow, perhaps because Cynthia’s demonic energy penetrated so deeply.

“I’ll take care of it, so you don’t have to worry about it.”

“No…”

When Yujin Kang looked this way, Skadi kept her mouth shut.

Come to think of it, this person had a bare face today.

Facing the black eyes that were about to sink in, Skadi felt speechless.

Taking off his hat and putting it on the desk, Kang Yu-jin undid the bandages on his hands and took out new bandages and potions from the drawer.

I won’t show it, but it will hurt a lot.

“If I ask what happened, won’t you tell me?”

“Yes.”

“Chit.”

I thought so.

Skadi, who approached Yujin Kang, brushed off his hand to pick up the bandage and picked up the bandage himself.

“What are you doing?”

“Would it be painful to wrap this by yourself?”

“Originally, I did well alone-“

“Uh huh. Be still.”

Kang Yoo-jin sat down, and Skadi, who invoked the rune word, engraved a spell on the bandage.

All of them were runes such as [Recovery], [Disinfection], and [Enhancement], and although they wouldn’t have any noticeable effect, they were runes that would be of some help in recovering from wounds.

“I’m not going to ask what happened, but don’t overdo it. If the professor gets hurt and goes around, the students look at him.”

“I don’t really care.”

“Eww. I care! I!”

Skadi, who slapped Yujin Kang on the thigh, meticulously bandaged the injured hand.

By the time the disinfection and bandaging were finished, Skadi, who had tightly wrapped the wound, finally opened her mouth.

“Take care of yourself. Okay?”

“···Yes.”

“Hmph. Now to the point! What are you doing with that?”

She pointed to the glass dome politely.

“It’s a redesign of a glass tube I brought back. It’s not yet finished.”

At that time, Yujin Kang’s gaze turned to Skadi.

“Professor Skadi.”

“Huh? Why?”

“I have something I need help with.”

He brought up the story as if it was all right.

“Do you know anything about alchemy?”

“Hmm? What about alchemy… you know quite a bit, right?”

Alchemy is also one of the branches of pure magic.

As an authority on magic theory, Skadi also had quite a knowledge of alchemy.

“But why?”

“Required.”

Use of glass tubes.

The incredible power to reinterpret and amplify demonic energy.

Kang Yu-jin’s goal was to upgrade it so that he could act more actively.

There is an ego to be software.

Now, we need a medium to bear that power and ego.

Yujin Kang was thinking of giving it a body.

“Can you make a human body?”
