Academy Life of a Career Hypnotist

Episode 105. Reorganization time (3)

After a little fuss,

Pyo Yoo-rim and I took Do-rim to the housekeeper’s house and returned to our respective dormitories.

Dorim was upset about not being together from today, but I also needed time to clean up.

of course.

“I’m sorry.”

Pyo Yu-rim’s request to live with him was rejected.

Fortunately, she didn’t ask again if she had stabbed her once. If I had come out recklessly, it would have been very difficult to refuse.

Even in this part, Dorim revealed his second mode of resentment, but when I secretly promised to play with the child as much as the mother’s share, he smiled brightly, saying that he would understand right away.

‘huh?’

While I was getting out of the bathroom and drying my hair with a towel, the light on the smartphone screen I had placed on my desk came on briefly and then turned off again. As I did something, Seol Chae-hwa spoke to me through a messenger.

[Can I talk to you for a minute?]

＜Let’s do it over the phone?＞

[no. You can’t be disturbed by phone calls when you should be resting. I’ll just ask you a few quick questions. Did you have any regrets in this contest?]

I could get the gist of the question.

‘Maybe he’s asking about the reward he promised to give me?’

If it was Seolchaehwa’s thoroughgoing personality, there was a high probability that she would prepare with reference to my opinion.

indeed. It’s a pity. I thought it would be better to say it clearly than to answer halfway.

＜There must be a mana-related problem. My abilities generally consume a lot of mana.＞

[Isn’t it forceful?]

＜It’s just that this selection was special. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t feel sorry for the force, but there’s nothing good about being greedy.＞

[I gave you a Magical Soul Watch the other day, but wouldn’t that be enough?]

That was helpful enough. If it hadn’t been for that, it would have been very dangerous.

At the last Septagram Lab, there must have been a lot of hurdles that I couldn’t overcome in this selection round. Looking back on it like this, it was a grateful artifact that quietly fulfilled its role.

but.

＜That definitely helped. I just want to be more greedy here. Not to become stronger with an artifact, but to become stronger myself. For example, something like an elixir?＞

I looked at Seol Chae-hwa’s reaction while sneaking up on luck.

From nob le mt l. com

Just because there were a lot of artifacts, it wasn’t that they could only profit.

One of the main disadvantages of artifacts was that they ate away the durability of the body. It was a part that had to be endured as it was a device that drew and used adult mana.

What I am referring to here is the elixir. In Psychic Age, there was a case where stats increased permanently through certain consumption items.

‘If there is a downside, it’s that it’s filthy hard to find. If it’s not a high-grade elixir, the penalty is usually severe, so it’s worse than not taking it.’

After a while, Seol Chae-hwa’s answer came back.

[It’s an elixir… … . It’s very ideal. It’s a problem that it’s hard to find no matter how much money you have.]

＜I guess so.＞

[Usually, such talented people are preoccupied by others and hide their existence. Originally, the good thing is that they only want to use it among themselves.]

＜You asked, so I just said it once.＞

In that sense, it could be said that Min Seo-eun’s presence was revealed.

It was because among the enchanted foods she made, there were foods that permanently raised stats.

The only penalty is that you have to consume it regularly for a certain period of time. Other than that, there were really no downsides.

‘If I had to make a downside, would it be that it is a benefit that I get when I take the Min Seo-eun route?’

Simply put, it means that you have to make her fall for you.

It’s not such a simple concept that she has to like me to make me. It was because her nature had to be awakened through love before she could acquire the nature related to elixir manufacturing.

＜Um. It’s not that I’m sorry about the selection process. Apart from that, there is something I personally feel is lacking.＞

[What is that?]

＜money＞

[Money? Do you have a separate place to write?]

＜There are many places to write. In life, there are a lot of things to spend money on.＞

What else do you need besides the means to become stronger? nothing but money That was the reality, and the original reality was a world that runs on money.

[Is there anything else?]

Seeing that he kept asking, it was clear that he wanted to refer to the reward he was giving me.

‘wait. Should I ask for that?’

A key stage in the upcoming third episode. There are two main events taking place on the Meteor shower stage.

The two purposes of the septagram. Killing immature adults and absorbing aura, and enlisting talented people who can become members of the Septagram.

‘Even if the former cooperates with Seol Chae-hwa and prepares to respond in advance.’

In the latter case, there was one person I needed to intervene on my own.

If you just ignore it, you’ll fall for Septagram’s proposal and become one of them, as well as be promoted to an executive officer of Septagram in a later episode, giving players a headache.

Sword Demon Eltrina.

The woman who will become the sixth star of the currently vacant Septagram. … … Don’t ask me why it’s a woman again. It’s only because the original ‘Psychic Age’ is a male-oriented RPG game based on unplayed games.

anyway.

There was only one way to prevent her from becoming a Septagram executive.

Sword Demon. sword ghost. A being who turned to the camp of evil just because he wanted to wield swordsmanship to his heart’s content. Coincidentally, the way to appease her was also very simple.

‘If you became evil because of your dissatisfaction with swordsmanship, then I just need to be the object of your swordsmanship desire.’

In the original work, it was impossible to prevent it in advance due to the constraints of having to move according to the set script. It was different now.

How many times have the existing scripts been torn because of that f*cking variable. How many other times have you been in trouble because of that?

If it’s not going to go according to the original flow. I’d rather use my hands first to suit my taste.

I sent a text message to Seol Chae-hwa with that will.

＜Could you recognize a teacher who is deeply versed in swordsmanship?＞

***

“Eltrina. Are you practicing your sword today?”

A slum in France.

“Are you going to deal with me?”

A woman who silently practiced swordsmanship against an imaginary enemy on a flat earthen floor. Eltrina asked in a hard voice in response to her neighbor’s question.

“I was just asking. I am not interested in swordsmanship.”

“If you’re not interested, go. It gets in the way.”

sword and swordsmanship.

and a prosecutor.

Eltrina was completely indifferent to anything not related to these three words.

“Whoops. Normally, I would have returned here without incident, but today is different?”

“What is the business?”

“Would you like to see this video? It’s a video of a man practicing swordsmanship that you love so much.”

fence. Only after the word was mentioned, Eltrina finally looked at her neighbor.

I literally just gave it a look.

“If you’re going to introduce the swordsman to the sword, stop it now. Not one or two people have made me look forward to it and disappointed me in that way.”

“Take a look! This one has over 3 million views on Star Tube? Doesn’t that mean that a lot of people searched for it?”

Eltrina slowly put down the blade that had been erected high up in the sky.

“If the video is of little interest, I will never speak to you again.”

“Eltrina. Didn’t you say that three times before?”

“This is your last chance.”

“Yes, yes, I understand, so take a look.”

The video introduced by a neighbor friend looks like an arcade. A man swinging a sword at an imaginary monster created through holograms. None other than Kim Do-yoon was filmed.

“… … .”

“how is it? isn’t it great this person. He’s quite handsome and, well, he’s had a fight with the notorious Septagram executive.”

“Septagram… .”

“huh! That septagram! Did you know that you risked your life to save a child in danger?”

Eltrina’s eyebrows narrowed.

Septagram. It was a name I had never heard before.

‘ah. A suspicious man I met in an alley before. Was it the name of the organization he invited me to join?’

To make your dreams come true. I was fascinated by your swordsmanship. She did all sorts of tricks, but she didn’t pay much attention.

I don’t want to become a Mine. It wasn’t because there was a particularly righteous reason. In the first place, she didn’t think of herself as an honest person.

Rather, if you want to take him, he told you to prove it with your skills, and then, without hesitation, he swung his sword and cut his throat.

‘I’m just babbling. He was a man who had no taste for cutting.’

He’s a guy who serves an evil organization anyway, so there’s nothing wrong with killing him. That was the only reason.

“You’re annoying.”

“uh? why are you annoying Aren’t you good at this?”

“It doesn’t mean that. The video is unnatural.”

“Is it unnatural? Ah~ I’m sure it’s because the boring sections were cut?”

The length of the video is about 10 minutes. The flow of swordsmanship was interrupted midway through editing. Eltrina was very displeased with that fact.

What this means.

‘I want to see more raw swordsmanship. from start to finish. The linkage process of swinging the sword, without any omission.’

It meant that Doyoon Kim’s swordsmanship aroused her interest.

“Funny. I wish I could meet you in person.”

At the end of the video, after the swordsmanship, he hurriedly disappears through the crowd with a woman holding a child.

“I translated the comment window and saw it? I heard that you are from Korea, right? In Korea, there is ‘Avenir’. There is also a school called Signal in the country, and they say students there.”

“hmm. is it.”

“what? Eltrina. It’s the first time I’ve seen you look like that. Did you like this guy too?”

“Not bad.”

“Oh my. Eltrina. You were a woman after all.”

Eltrina was lost in thought, letting her friend’s words go through one ear. There was something that suddenly came to mind.

meteo shower.

Eltrina was a student of Abnir. In addition, Meteor Shower was also a person who was selected as the French national team.

‘It was a competition that I wasn’t very interested in. Maybe a little bit of fun.’

Kim Do-yoon’s swordsmanship was truly divine.

I didn’t even follow it with my eyes, but I dodged here and there as if I knew where the attack would come. There is no hesitation at all when it comes to sword strikes, and once swung, the blade does not look to the end, and it goes straight to the next target.

‘I want to face it myself.’

I couldn’t be sure because it was an edited video, but it was unmistakably strong. If he could use that level of swordsmanship, he would surely participate in the Meteor Shower.

back.

Power went into the handle of the sword he was holding.

It was the moment when Eltrina’s empty heart was filled with unknown emotions.

***

next day.

It was the same as the last meeting. Seol Chae-hwa and I met at the Signal Clock Tower. The difference was that when I headed toward the clock tower, Seol Chae-hwa pulled the car out first.

“Are you driving today?”

He didn’t even have a driver, he drove the car himself. I wasn’t interested in driving, so I didn’t know what model it was. At least it was certain that it looked expensive.

“I also sometimes want to enjoy driving. Get on.”

burrung.

The car was a two-seater and open car. The wind was quite refreshing, probably because it was a time when the heat was on the rise.

“Where are you going?”

“Where is it? Of course it’s my company. I kept the reward for Mr. Kim Do-yoon there.”

In fact, it is no exaggeration to say that Seolchaehwa is a private company. PMC. Polaris, a private military company. I knew where it was because I had stopped by for a request the other day.

“Come to think of it, Ghost. What happened to him?”

“Don’t talk. I couldn’t even see how thoroughly I hid my nose. Even though we have uncovered all the information about being involved with Septagram and are cooperating with the police in the investigation.”

The only consolation is that Ghost was nominated as a Mine. In a word, he became a criminal and could not lead a normal life in Korea.

“If it’s his ability, it won’t be easy to catch him.”

transparency ability. It must have been his natural ability to become transparent and see through things.

Seol Chae-hwa let out a small sigh as if she was getting tired of it.

“You don’t know how much I suffered because of that little guy. Thinking that there might be more traitors besides Ghosts, I interrogated each and every employee of the company and people who seemed like family, and I was exhausted.”

“Even in the midst of such hardships, you managed to come out at the last meeting.”

“For me, it was a break for the mind. It’s just that I haven’t teased it so far. After the Ghost Betrayal incident, I fell into a pretty serious state of distrust.”

“Ugh. I see.”

I knew.

If she hadn’t taken the Seolchaehwa route in the original work, she would have become more toxic than before, less cooperative and more demanding than before.

“Unlike when I was at the company, the fact that I didn’t have to suspect anyone was not that comfortable. The people Kim Do-yoon believes in are no different from those who have been verified.”

“You don’t doubt me?”

“If you were a suspicious person. I must have been nervous about whether or not two lines were drawn by now?”

“Cool.”

I suddenly remembered the incident at the villa and felt embarrassed.

why am i ashamed of this It’s usually the opposite.

It was embarrassing indeed.
