Academy Life of a Career Hypnotist

Episode 50. starry night (2)

I didn’t go out of the dorm.

There is a saying that Korea is a country of CCTV.

Didn’t they say that one of the reasons why Korea has better security than other countries is because the land mass is small, but CCTVs are everywhere, making it easy to arrest?

thus.

‘Not everyone has come yet.’

We planned a strategy to go outside to avoid the CCTV surveillance network of such a signal. Since it is not known how far the Septagram’s magical powers extend, it is decided to consider the number of cases as much as possible.

In that sense, the place I came to now is the rooftop of the men’s dormitory. There was a reason for coming out here.

It was because I decided to meet the operation members right here.

‘I can see a lot of stars today.’

While looking up at the night sky, I was immersed in various depths.

Tuck – Tuck –

I could see the shapes of people approaching this way, crossing buildings and building rooftops and stepping on tall sculptures.

“Mr. Kim Do-yoon. we’re here Did you wait a long time?”

“Mr. Uncle~ I’m here to pick you up.”

yet.

The figures of the person jumped over to the roof of the men’s dormitory.

The person who spoke to me was Seol Chae-hwa, who was riding on Um Na-yeon’s back.

“It hasn’t been long since you came. Rather, I wondered how you would come here, but you came that way.”

“Oh, it can’t be helped. It’s because I can’t jump high like senior Kang Ah-ram or Na-yeon Eom.”

Adults with a nature specialized in combat have better basic muscle strength than other adults. Because of that, it was possible to leap across the building I saw earlier.

“under.”

“Sup… .”

taste was bitter. Kang Ah-ram also gave a short sigh about what he was going to do in the future.

Of course, I wasn’t born to specialize in combat. Therefore, she had to face the same fate as Seol Chae-hwa.

“I didn’t know the day would come when I would carry a boy on my back and run around.”

“Well, that’s how it happened, what can I do?”

“madam! Don’t waste your time and get on your back quickly!”

It was a sympathetic bar. There was no time to waste in such trivial brawls.

I headed towards the back of Kang Ah-ram, who was half-kneeling on the floor. It was a step that felt particularly heavy today.

“I’ll wrap it around my arm first and then around my neck.”

“If you gently touch her breasts, she will fall behind.”

“What nonsense. Would I do that in a serious situation like this?”

“hey. Don’t push your lower body too close to your back. If it touches me, I think I’ll feel very dirty.”

When you say things like that, it makes me unnecessarily conscious.

“yeah. He carries me on his back and runs. If you feel uncomfortable, please let me know right away. I’ll instantly change you to a good mood with a shot of my nature.”

“hey! you just do it again Really don’t let go! I warned you! Is it possible to shove it right into the ground?”

“What are you two doing… … .”

“no way. It’s Chaehwa. don’t look at it that way You’re both trying to relax like that.”

Seol Chae-hwa’s pitiful voice was followed by Eom Na-yeon’s soothing voice.

In the meantime, we hurriedly got out of the signal through the night air.

Even after we got out, Seol Chae-hwa and I had to be carried on our backs for a while.

Being able to jump high means that they can run faster than normal adults. It was because a moderate level of motorcycle could speed up to overtake lightly.

“Nayeon. go over there.”

“huh? where?”

Around 15 minutes, when I was carrying it on my back. The sound of conversation came from the Seol Chae-hwa & Eom Na-yeon pair, who were running in the lead.

“That side I’m pointing at. There is a vehicle I have concealed.”

“Okebari~”

The Septagram Lab we want to go to is very far from Signal. No matter how much Um Na-yeon and Kang A-ram could run faster than a motorcycle, their physical strength was definitely limited.

Considering the future battles, physical strength is essential. Seol Chae-hwa devised a plan to ride a car from a certain point after leaving only the area where the surveillance network would be dense.

rattle.

After a while, Seol Chae-hwa said as she opened the door of the hidden car.

“Come on, get on. I will do the driving.”

“Ugh. Finally, you don’t have to carry this skinny guy.”

Kang Ah-ram, who was stretching his arms around as if his shoulders were stiff, got on the back seat first.

“Then I’m the passenger!”

“It will take some time to get to the lab. If everyone is tired, close your eyes. I’ll wake you up when we arrive.”

Afterwards, Eom Na-yeon and Seol Chae-hwa boarded the vehicle.

“What are you doing? You don’t get on quickly.”

As I stood still in front of the car, Aram Kang asked.

“Oh sorry. I was thinking about something else.”

I got into the car, holding my fingers feeling a bit empty. I felt a strange anxiety that I couldn’t explain in words, but I didn’t want to say it.

‘I’m sure you feel this way because you’re worried about No.45. If not.’

I didn’t even know it was because I wasn’t sure if I could overcome this ordeal with my current strength.

“Aram Kang. I need some help from you during the transit.”

“What?”

“There are some new natures that I have recently acquired. I haven’t used it against another person yet, so you should be my opponent. I need to know exactly how to use it in real combat.”

“I made it clear earlier! I hate your skills! And why me? Am I happy?”

I explained to Aram Kang what the reason was.

Seol Chae-hwa told her that she could not interfere because she was driving, and Eom Na-yeon told her that it was inappropriate to experiment because her natural resistance was extremely strong.

“hey! Then I can drive!”

“That is difficult. You’re a key combat agent like Nayeon Eom, so I can’t let driving fatigue build up.”

“Wouldn’t it be fine to just switch and drive while you experiment with that nature?!”

“Then you have to get out of the car for a moment. There is also a time delay, and if we get out of the car and our faces are exposed outside, and the septagram even notices it, it will be difficult.”

“Don’t you think of the blood you will accumulate from being subjected to your nature?!”

Aram Kang groaned for a long time with his arms folded while saying that.

Eventually.

“Eww… . Then quickly find out your real ability and finish it quickly. got it?”

“I also have to conserve my mental energy, so I don’t intend to drag it on for too long.”

“Oh oh! Uncle’s new ability! I want to see you too! ah! It’s Chaehwa. Can I use the center rearview mirror?”

“I put a drone camera on the outside of the car in case there was a follower. You have enough visibility, so use it however you like.”

The inside of the car started to shake a bit.

Kang Ah-ram scratched the side of his head as if he was displeased with the atmosphere.

“good. Then what is the nature to know?”

“Two.”

“Can’t you tell me what kind of ability it is? Your skills are a bit scary.”

“My nature basically doesn’t work well if the opponent is preparing in advance. Now it’s time to find out what kind of ability it is. If an ability is applied vaguely, it’s hard to know exactly… … .”

“Ahhh! okay okay! I understand, so stop wasting your time and do it quickly!”

First up is Demagog’s second ability.

＜You can arbitrarily set the emotions the other party will feel in relation to the caster’s specific actions＞

I decided to look into this option.

[‘Demagog’ is activated.]

After turning on Demagogue, I set it so that Kang Ah-ram feels amused when I gag.

and.

“hey. Let me give you a quiz.”

“A sudden quiz?”

“What does a sheep hate the most?”

“… … hmm?”

Kang Ah-ram’s expression that he doesn’t understand.

I raised one of my index fingers with a serious expression on my face.

“The correct answer is brushing your teeth.”

“… … .”

“sheep. hemorrhoids.”

That moment.

“Kyahahahahaha! Come brush your teeth! sheep! hemorrhoids! Big! hehehe!”

Laughter erupted from an unexpected place.

Nayeon. I didn’t call you, why are you laughing? Could it be that you like it?

“… Did you gag? Isn’t that funny at all?”

In the meantime, Kang Ah-ram maintained his true colors. No, he was struggling to maintain his true colors. When I looked closely, the corners of my mouth twitched, albeit weakly.

It’s ambiguous, so let’s check it a little more.

“What if Cinderella gets insomnia?”

“Oh what else!”

“Mozzarella.”

“Khehehe! It’s mozzarella. It’s so funny. Whoops!”

I decided to ignore Eom Na-yeon, who was gurgling after being hit by an accidental bullet. okay. You might like this one.

The important thing now was Kang A-ram’s reaction.

“What is he saying now. If you are testing your nature, why are you giving a quiz?”

“What if God is angry?”

“… … .”

“Shoelaces.”

“… … .”

“god. hot.”

“Ahahahaha! 100 million? ok. Bae, bae, bae! My stomach hurts! Tear your stomach! turn it off… … !”

In the end, it was Eom Na-yeon who was hit by repeated shots and was driven to death, but she kept ignoring it.

I focused only on examining Aram Kang’s face.

“… … big.”

“uh. Did you laugh?”

The long awaited response finally came.

Kang Ah-ram covered his face with one hand and turned his head toward the window. Even so, I couldn’t hide the laughter that erupted from my mouth.

“Ha, sh*t. hurt self-esteem. Why do I have to laugh at something like this… … .”

“Actually, that was one of my natural abilities.”

“Somehow it seemed like that. Normally, I would have been in a bad mood, let alone funny, but why did I smile today?”

Eom Na-yeon, still distracted from giggling. Kang Ah-ram is embarrassed that he laughed.

and.

“It’s an interesting ability.”

Seol Chae-hwa, who finished with a very plain word, silently focused on driving again. It was a somewhat nerve-wracking reaction, but I decided to focus on my work first.

Now there is only one nature left to discover.

‘Except for the second ability of Mental Acceleration because I personally recognized it.’

The second ability of Delusion Practice. It was finally time for the main dish.

＜The caster implants the thoughts in his mind into the target＞

An option that I couldn’t get a feel for just entering the explanation.

‘But if it fits as I expected.’

A much more powerful weapon than the Demagogue introduced earlier will be put in my hands.

“Now I’m going to test my next ability.”

“What else is this time?”

“Relax. That makes it difficult to test your nature.”

“Can you not relax? Can you be relieved to demonstrate the creepy power of forcing something that isn’t funny to be funny?”

I couldn’t deny anything about that.

I said in a calm voice.

“that’s right. As you say. I made an unreasonable request. Because I had that kind of perception, the evaluation was not good in school until now.”

The atmosphere inside the car also calmed down.

“… … uncle. You know I don’t care I’m on my uncle’s side.”

I was grateful that Nayeon Eom secretly supported me.

“You don’t work well with my abilities in the first place. So you can rest assured.”

“hehehe?”

Big hum.

I deliberately cleared my throat to break the mood. And again, I started to create the atmosphere I wanted.

“Except for a special case like Nayeon Eom, I’m destined to live like this for the rest of my life. No matter what I do, doubts will always follow, and no one will be able to relax when dealing with me. I forgot for a while To ask for your peace of mind without knowing my topic… … .”

“Hey, hey. Why are you getting sullen and not like you? feel sorry for people I didn’t mean it in that sense.”

As Kang Aram looked at me, his voice began to grow timid.

“really? Then can you trust me?”

“If I hadn’t believed, would I have been here in the first place? So, bastard, don’t get mad at each and every one of these things.”

I guess now is the right time.

[‘Delusion Practice’ is activated.]

I implanted the idea that ‘the act of hugging me is as light a skinship as shaking hands’ to Aram Kang.

and.

“If you mean it, can you hug me just once?”

“What a mess. What’s so difficult about that?”

Kang Ah-ram naturally wrapped his arm around my neck without any rejection and put it on my shoulder. It was a somewhat subtle sense of distance to hug.

“Did this hug you?”

“Are you still in doubt? There is no such thing as a true base.”

Then, this time, he looked at me from the front and used both arms to hug my neck.

if there was a problem.

“town?!”

I literally just tried to hug her neck, so my head was buried in Kang Ah-ram’s chest.

“Omma! Jackpot case… !”

Eom Na-yeon’s shrill voice is heard beyond the darkness.

I calmly sorted out the situation.

‘For now, my prediction was correct.’

The second ability of Delusion Practice. In one word, this could be defined as ‘recognition change’.

An ability like identity that comes to mind when hypnotizing with an emoticon implant. It’s the nature that makes it so that you don’t feel that what you’re doing is strange.

‘It was good to know for sure… … .’

To be honest, I had no idea it would be held like this.

At best, I thought it would be a composition that stretches your arms deeper and hugs your back. Isn’t that a normal hug posture?

I swallowed a dry saliva, foreboding the future fate.

[Release the ongoing ‘Dilusion Practice’.]

“sorry. That was the second ability I was trying to test.”

He moved cautiously, as if he had become a member of the explosive ordnance squad. sneaky. I slowly pulled my head back so as not to irritate it.

cheek slap. Thinking of Kang Ah-ram’s temper, I thought that my fist would fly, so I clenched my teeth hard.

“Then, was it just a test show to set the mood?”

“huh? Oh, that? I was trying to catch your guard, but my true feelings were slightly mixed. I’m a human too, so I’m not completely indifferent.”

why don’t you attack Is it a plan to catch your guard slightly and then throw a punch with a lag?

“Is that so? That’s it. I also thought you were a Jjoda guy despite your appearance.”

Contrary to expectations, her reaction was calm.

“Aren’t you hitting me?”

“What are you hitting? Do I look like someone who is ignorant and only tries to solve it by force? Ever since you said you were going to test your abilities, I’ve roughly prepared my mind.”

“That, is it?”

Kang Ah-ram crossed his arms and turned his head toward the window again.

“If I had the sensibility to squeal because I held it in my heart in the first place, I wouldn’t have slept like that in the clubroom, dude.”

“ah.”

“what… . It doesn’t wear out at all. You haven’t touched it with your hands, so don’t be unnecessarily conscious of it. Rather, it’s more disgusting that you react so awkwardly. I’m more embarrassed understand?”

“Yes.”

“Tsk. Seeing how they do things differently from rumors, it’s 100 percent crazy.”

I guess I didn’t have to say the last thing.

“Whoops. I agree with what you said.”

Seol Chae-hwa, who had been quiet until now, suddenly agreed.

Having nothing to say, I turned my head toward the window and looked at the distant mountains, just like Aram Kang. I don’t know if it’s because of my mood, but the stars felt closer today.

Are you counting the number of stars until this awkward atmosphere disappears? I was seriously considering such a foolish plan.

“By the way, aren’t unnie and Chae-hwa in the same situation? Since we’re all comrades, why are you teasing us with things like that? I can’t use it if I make my uncle faint.”

“… … .”

“… … .”

“… … .”

Nayeon.

That doesn’t help me at all.
