Academy Life of a Career Hypnotist

Episode 18. approaching mind (3)

I listened carefully to her words.

“The more I remember, the more affectionate I become. Any memory related to that person is fine. The more stimulating memories, the better. for example… … .”

I slowly took a step back. It was because she gave off a strange atmosphere and tried to approach me.

one step. two steps. My back, slowly stepping back, was finally blocked by a wall. The distance between them was close enough that they could feel the warmth of their breath.

“Actually, there was a time when I asked someone else for advice. What do you think of this feeling? So when I heard that answer, I felt a little strange… What do you think, Doyoon Kim?”

That moment.

What I buried deep in my heart. It is a mistake of the not-too-distant past, and it reminds me of what the woman in the past said.

“i like you.”

The woman and the stray forest overlapped.

Despondent, the woman took her own life, and I had sworn I would never make the same mistake again.

and.

I was once again at a crossroads of choice.

“… … .”

The act of giving her the answer she wanted here might solve my troubles. By giving her hope, she will not be eaten by the darkness in her heart.

At first glance, it seems like a very easy way to solve it. But even though the path was obvious, I couldn’t take a step forward.

“Was that a strange question? It certainly wasn’t something to talk about late at night like this. just… Pretend you didn’t hear it.”

When the answer was delayed, Pyo Yu-rim ended the conversation in a lonely voice.

pod.

As she did when she came, she suddenly disappeared when she left.

I stood in my place for a while.

Again, my reasoning was correct.

she remembered me Since it had been regarded almost as a fait accompli from before, it was not a matter of surprise now.

only.

‘Would it have been right to tell her the answer she wanted?’

How to save her.

I needed some more time to think.

“Kim Do-yoon.”

A few days later.

In the midst of raising his natural proficiency at the training ground, an unexpected guest came. The guy I met in class the other day. It was Pyo Yoo-rim’s fiancé Nam Sung-jin.

“How did you get here?”

“You said we should talk the other day. I asked my classmates, and I heard that they come here often.”

The atmosphere isn’t very unusual.

I stopped what I was doing and looked at him.

“Tell me about your business.”

“If you’re interested in her rationally, you’d better give it up.”

“… … .”

“you. Did you hypnotize Yurim? I know everything even if I don’t see it but i won’t say anything i’m generous Instead, help me to take the hypnosis you tried on him this time.”

It was absurd.

I was just wondering what he was trying to say by suddenly coming to me.

“Think carefully. I am the 3rd generation chaebol? No matter how much hypnotic power you have, if you mess with a large corporation, you won’t be able to find the bones. Wouldn’t it be better to behave while taking good care of the other person?”

“hmm. so?”

“When rumors about you and the wild forest spread, my grandfather said he would scold you, and I stopped it over several weeks. Why do you think that was?”

I decided to listen to a little more of the bullsh*t he was talking about.

“Why did you do that?”

“I hate fighting. Let’s go nice and good. If you cooperate with me even now, I’ll turn a blind eye to everything you’ve done. I can quell all your bad rumors. So, huh? you know?”

The dark smile was very unpleasant.

‘Because it’s intertwined with this guy, the pyoyurim has become so corrupted.’

It was obvious without looking.

So, the answer I would give was also decided.

“hey.”

“huh?”

“Don’t you think something is strange?”

“What are you talking about?”

“If I really hypnotized Pyo Yu-rim and got to know him, would he have bothered to watch as bad rumors spread about me?”

“… … ?”

It’s a look that keeps both eyes open. I kindly added an explanation to such a guy.

“In the first place, people around me constantly gossip about my abilities and whatnot. If I had really been abusing it with my hypnotic powers, I would have made all those students shut up.”

“uh… . That means… You mean you didn’t hypnotize Yurim?”

“It’s difficult to believe the rumors as they are.”

The man’s eyes widened violently.

“No, really. that… Are you really not hypnotized?”

“Because it is.”

“Then why is Yurim being friendly with you?”

“I don’t know. Go and ask yourself.”

The secret of the wild forest. The natural side effect of amnesia is known only to herself. Even her parents don’t know about it. I didn’t want to worry about it, so I didn’t tell anyone.

‘Instead, he confessed to me in a way that he quietly turned around, but… … .’

In the meantime, the male jin said with an awkward smile.

“Oh yeah. You mean that? So you’re saying you don’t have any feelings for the pyoyurim? If so, that’s fine with me. My offer remains unchanged. cooperate with me Help the stray forest fall for me.”

“What if you don’t like it?”

The boy’s face instantly turned red.

“Kim Do-yoon.”

“what.”

“Recently, after hanging out with Seolchaehwa’s girls, do you feel like you’ve become something? Do you think they will stand behind you if you are in danger?”

You finally reveal your true nature. Yes, this is the typical third-generation conglomerate villain I used to know.

“I’ll make you realize what reality is and what the difference between ranks is.”

Nam Sung-jin, who kept fighting alone, eventually kicked off the training ground when I continued to ignore him.

I wasn’t particularly afraid of the threats he would make on me.

‘It would be difficult if I hung up on a stray rim for no reason.’

In case you don’t know, I’ll have to prepare my mind.

***

next day.

After finishing regular classes, I put the textbooks I had put on my desk into my bag. As soon as the bell rang, the classmates ran out of the classroom as if they were racing each other.

I glanced out the window.

Is it because tomorrow is the weekend? Many students were seen exiting the campus to enjoy Fire Friday.

Some go back to their hometowns to get some rest, and some go out to the city to play. It was truly a youthful atmosphere.

‘How nice it would be if I could live comfortably like those guys.’

For some reason, Pyo Yu-rim said he had business to do today and left. Even yesterday, they clung to me like gum, trying to add even one more word.

“ah.”

After leisurely tidying up my desk, I was on my way to cross the 1st grade class to get out of the 1st grade building.

Coincidentally, I ran into a familiar face. It was Min Seo-eun.

“hi.”

“Oh, hello… .”

It was Min Seo-eun who went somewhere and returned to timid mode the other day. Heck, she was originally like this. I used to show a strong side only in certain situations.

‘right. Come to think of it, when I was in critical condition, he helped me like Pyo Yu-rim.’

The last time I was contacted, there was no rush. I forgot to say thank you to Yu-Rim Pyo because I was so focused on Yu-Rim Pyo.

“Oh. I owe you a little last time.”

“yes?”

“You, along with Pyo Yu-rim, helped me to save me. I guess I didn’t say thank you.”

Min Seo-eun took a moment to answer.

“… yes. It’s natural to help people in crisis. Besides, I only helped, and Yurim did the most.”

Something seemed to keep sweating. Maybe he was conscious of what happened in the backyard of the 1st grade building the other day.

‘I said let’s start with friends, but it’s still awkward.’

Even Min Seo-eun thinks that I am interested in her rationally. It’s a misunderstanding, but from her point of view, dealing with me would be very burdensome.

“I see. Have a nice weekend then. I go.”

I decided not to talk to you anymore and go on my way here. It’s someone you should be close to someday, but there’s no need to act impatiently.

“Now, wait a minute!”

“huh?”

“I have a question for you.”

It was unexpected. What could Min Seo-eun be curious about?

‘I can’t guess.’

It wasn’t a particularly difficult request, so I decided to listen.

“What are you curious about?”

“I know it’s not polite to interfere in someone else’s love history. In this case, I am also involved, so I wanted to tell you.”

“What are you talking about?”

“I think Yu-rim has special feelings for Kim Do-yoon.”

Unable to meet their eyes, they wiggled their fingers and moved their eyes around. Because it’s still in full swing. It was a time when I felt embarrassed to have a conversation about this topic.

“How did you find out about that? It’s not even the same class.”

“I found out about it last time during the Neverland incident. The way he was worried about the injured Kim Do-yoon didn’t seem like he was treating an ordinary classmate.”

“hmm. so?”

“Ugh! I’ll just be straightforward! A more attractive driftwood than me who is sober… … !”

―――!

――――――!

―――――――――!

That moment. A strange thing happened.

A feeling of trembling in the brain. A swollen nostril. The focus of his vision blurred for an instant, and he lost his balance and fell.

[Activates ‘Emotion Implant’.]

The moment just before losing consciousness. I barely got hold of my psyche. When I looked up, I saw Min Seo-eun, who had fallen on the floor.

and.

Woo woo woo.

I confirmed that a huge magic circle had been summoned above Signal.

After looking at the situation for a while, I supported the collapsed Min Seo-eun’s shoulders.

“Hey, wake up! Yumma!”

“Ahh… .”

He didn’t appear to have passed out completely, but he seemed unable to control himself.

I know what this phenomenon is.

Magic wave pulse. It was because of the abbreviation MMP (ManaMagnetic Pulse). It was convenient to understand that it was a fantasy version of the EMP that everyone knows.

Adults have their own mana. The energy labeled ‘mental strength’ through the vital chip also meant my mana reserve.

The difference here is that the total amount of mana is not the same for each adult, and the efficiency of the power that can be extracted with mana is different.

At this time, if an adult with powerful magical power exerts a high-output nature in an instant without warming up, MMPs are generated and spread everywhere.

If you don’t have the right magical power, or if you’re not a saint like me who has a mental nature, your body will be completely broken like Min Seo-eun now.

‘In the current signal, an adult who has the magical power to emit this much MMP… … .’

only one. It was only a fringe.

The problem was that this was only the beginning.

eeen!

A creepy sound came from the hallway of the 1st year building. It was similar to the flapping of its wings that you hear when a mosquito flies by your ear.

I took out the weapon strapped to my waist. A musket pistol that was supplied by Tak Gwang-jun the other day. It was Astrolabos.

“… … !”

Before long, the existence that had been making strange noises appeared. A monster with a body resembling a mosquito and eyes resembling a fly. It was a mosquito fly.

ssut

Its characteristic is that it is inconspicuous like a mosquito and nimble like a fly. In the original version, it was a Monstrum that had a high evasion rate and was often misjudged.

Yes. The opponent was that Monstrum. The Monster Room appeared in Signal.

‘… … Most would think.’

However, its true identity is not Monstrum. It was a summoning object created by a runaway wild forest.

There was reason to be so sure. Because the same thing happened in the original.

‘In the end, it fell into a Halo state just like the original story.’

It was a phenomenon that occurred because Bang Si-hyuk, the male student who had been teasing Min Seo-eun the other day, could not hold back his anger.

Why did she create a summoned object that looked exactly like Monstrum? I even knew why.

It was a kind of resolution process.

When people reach the point of unbearable anger, they want to scream or break something. That’s how you try to release what’s stuck inside.

But what if you are drunk? It’s not a very perfect example, but it seems that the currently runaway pyoyu forest is also in such a state.

All the stress you put in your mind. Even though her memories may be forgotten, her unresolved negative emotions are eventually released to the outside through the medium of her natural magician power.

Caang!

I pulled the trigger and destroyed the stray forest’s summoning body. One shot was enough against such a weak individual.

‘I can’t keep killing myself here.’

The pyoyu forest runaway came earlier than expected. I wasn’t upset though. There was no need to use your natural instincts to clear your mind.

I already tasted repeated variables. Humans are animals of adaptation.

I wrapped Min Seo-eun’s arm around my neck and carefully raised her up. Fortunately, he seemed to have the strength to stand on his own two feet, although he could not control his mind properly.

‘First, take Min Seo-eun to a safe place, and then… … .’

Yooseong, the main character of the original work, defeated Pyoyurim with his fraudulent nature and main character Bajeong.

I can’t. I didn’t even want to.

‘I’ll have to do it my way.’

My plan was a little messed up, but my work was still the same.

My notoriety spread to Signal. It was finally time to show an activity worthy of the name.
