I Became an Academy Heroine Stalker

89 – Part 1 (Complete): Towards the Illusion, for the Mission

Fortunately, this absurd situation did not last long. From Lesha’s explanation, I found out that he was Drake and had polymorph abilities.

Nayeon also did not refute or doubt the explanation, so she was able to avoid the situation where she had to break out in a cold sweat.

No, the fact that I was 22 years old and had a son who looked like he was 8 years old was absurd.

Well, it was a really dizzying sight to see a little kid in a warehouse with shackles on.

“So, that’s it, no. You think he’s the black dragon Velokas?”

“I’ll have to ask myself (?) for the exact details, but I think that’s probably the case.”

The little boy just looked around us, as if he hadn’t had the ability to acquire a language yet.

without saying anything

Of course, judging from the slight hostility in Nayeon’s eyes that seemed to be looking at me, it seems that Velokas was right.

“I don’t seem to have any memories.”

“yes… ?”

If he remembered what happened on the continent of Pangea, it would be normal for him to go wild by now.

But the boy just stood still.

Perhaps the barking at me at the time of hatchling was not based on memory, but according to an instinct left behind in memory.

anyway.

I wondered if I had to put an end to it before I could subdue him and find the memories of the black dragon Velokas, but it seemed that there was no need to do that as he was obediently following Lesha’s words.

Moreover, we should have grown even more than Elroden and Raffia at the time.

Even though he has a vicious mind, he’s not particularly afraid.

Maybe it would be fortunate if it was an S-class boss.

In terms of experience, the monsters on Earth seemed much stronger than the monsters on the Pangea continent.

“By the way, how did Velokas get over here? You must have seen death with your own two eyes then, right? That’s why we were able to return.”

I don’t know.

Because I never imagined that the record of Han Tae-jin’s second grade in the original work, which had a black flame dragon nestled in his left arm, was real.

However, what can be inferred is that the [Black Dragon Summon] trait was manifested at the same time that the blackened left arm was cured, so there was a high possibility that it had hidden in the mind or body of the returning Han Tae-jin.

I didn’t know why the blackness was released, though.

“Maybe he pretended to be dead and then hid through a portal when he returned. In the process, things like side effects came to me.”

“is it… . After all, he’s an evil boy. But, then, shouldn’t we definitely end it now?”

Mmm.

That’s right, but I’m sorry for the original Elroden… I couldn’t bear to kill him because there were some things I had a strange affection for, and I felt sorry for destroying Lesha’s credit for working hard to raise him.

Furthermore, how could he put an arrow into the heart of that naive-looking little guy?

More than anything, Lesha likes it too much.

“what… If it seems like a threat, it’ll be enough to deal with it then. If you can’t break even the magic shackles sold on the market, then no matter how much you grow, you won’t be a threat.”

“yes? Hmm. Well, if you’re hetzling, there’s no need to worry. But will you take him?”

“I thought it would be better than leaving it here and seeing it on the news.”

“It is true. But how are you going to take him?”

That’s the problem.

“Hmm… Is there any better way?”

He muttered that next to Nayeon.

It was nice to have the ability to polymorph.

This means that the chances of being noticed are significantly reduced.

However, if only a human figure was possible, that would be a headache in its own way.

Wouldn’t there be a guard who would send a party willing to go outside the barrier with a kid whose identity couldn’t be confirmed?

In a capitalist society, keeping your mouth shut with money also has limits.

So, I’ve been thinking about it for a while.

-Suddenly.

Lesha whispers something in his ear.

After that, he nodded and Pong! It created smoke with a roar.

And.

“Is your problem resolved?”

By the time the smoke disappeared, I had to smile mysteriously at Nayeon’s words.

A dagger was lying on the floor where the smoke had cleared.

It was a fairly long dagger with a black blade.

A pretty cool dagger with a dragon pattern on the base.

Lesha picked up the dagger and shrugged her shoulders happily.

Had they been mother and daughter in a previous life?

Speaking of Lesha, it looks as if she could dance.

anyway.

I blew a single blow to Lesha, and with this, our preparations seemed to be over.

“Let’s eat. I’m hungry.”

Mt. Geumgang is also an after-dinner view.

Before leaving, we decided to enjoy a Last Supper (?).

#

– Jerking away.

around noon the next day.

Nayeon and I were heading to the southern wall, the meeting place.

It’s finally starting.

It was a head-to-head match against Illusion.

Even though he was nervous, a strange heartbeat was making his heart beat.

The journey, which began with a heavy sense of duty, made me feel hopeful that it would bring about a happy ending.

“I ate really well yesterday. Raina-san, your food skills are really amazing.”

On a long journey, a good cook makes a great contribution to boosting the morale of team members.

That’s why Lesha is an indispensable existence.

However, that Lesha was not with us now.

No, there was.

Above our heads, in the air.

-tweet.

Lesha, a polymorphed little bird, was loitering over us high in the air.

Early in the morning, Lesha was supposed to have set off for the barrier first.

It was in the name of conducting a preliminary survey (?) to see if there were any problems in passing through the barrier, but fortunately, Nayeon did not raise any questions.

Apparently, the dinner last night left a strong aftertaste.

It would be shocking to be able to compete with Berthe, who was my exclusive chef.

Thanks to that praise, Lesha’s hostility (?) was somewhat alleviated.

Then, he tapped a black dagger clad in his waist.

-Giying!

A guy who falls hard.

Being short is also damn right.

If it hadn’t been for Lesha’s plea, he would have cut my crotch with the blade by now.

It’s a trembling companion, but I didn’t hate him so much that I didn’t put it in my mana pocket.

It’s fun to play around like now.

– Tuk-tuk.

-Jiing!

-Tutuduk, tuk-tuk.

-Geeeing-!!!!

goofy bastard.

When you beat it rhythmically like a drum, it gives off a lot of f*cking light.

chuck.

The brutal black dragon, Velokas, has turned into a small dagger and trembles like a dildo, so he must be quite ashamed.

‘Consider yourself lucky not to be petted. lock.’

As an aside, Lesha whispered to me to call me ‘Lock’ and his name became Locke.

anyway.

So Nayeon and I, along with Lesha who became a bird and Locke who became a dagger, arrived at the barrier.

I was able to meet Sua and Hyeseo who had been waiting for me since I came first.

Since they had told the news of Nayeon’s joining the expeditionary force in advance, everyone was not surprised by Nayeon’s appearance.

Perhaps, when the time comes, they will ask themselves why they joined. I announced the joining news and briefly added the reason.

Sua said hello first.

“You are here. Brother, Professor.”

“yes. Did everything go well?”

I asked if there was anything wrong.

If that general question is directed to the 52nd regressor, it will not be a general question.

Fortunately.

“It was innocent.”

It seemed that nothing special had happened to Ersia.

to the next.

“Are you here? Holder.”

I greeted Kim Hye-seo politely.

In terms of friendship alone, the most awkward relationship was with Hye-seo. However, there is still no way to know why the popularity ranking is currently at 45% (it has risen by 2% in the meantime) and is in first place.

Due to the favorable impression of the unknown reason, I had not yet decided on a registrant for the picture book.

Hye-seo was greeted bluntly and looked east.

“Yes. Let’s leave soon. We have to move 30km east before the sun goes down.”

“Is it 30 km?”

When I checked the map, there was a small town [Southwest] about 19km away, so I thought I could spend a night there.

“There is Osan Village 29.4 km to the east. I have to go there.”

“Isn’t there a Southwest Village before that?”

“Southwest Village is classified as a dangerous area due to a small-scale villain raid yesterday, so it is not possible to enter for accommodation purposes.”

“ah.”

Ohh.

So, since Kim Hye-seo belongs to the Monster Management Bureau, is it possible to quickly access news that is not featured in the news?

Le Shae, the great chef, and Hye-seo, the speedy courier.

It would be really lamentable to fail this journey with this combination.

If I had gone leisurely to the southwest village without knowing anything, I would have had to sleep in an unknown plain.

It must have been a pretty horrible first night.

to him

“OK. Then hurry up and move.”

I agreed without hesitation.

It was because he knew that Hye-seo was risking life and death on this journey as much as Su-a and me.

After such a short greeting, we moved straight to the guards at the barrier.

I had to answer a simple question.

The combination of two S-rank hunters, diamond-level holders, and apprentices didn’t look ordinary to anyone.

“What is the purpose of entry?”

I, who suddenly assumed the position of leader of the party (?), replied as the representative.

“This is for research purposes. It is here to support Professor Park Na-yeon’s research and to accompany her to collect samples.”

The guard looked at Hye-seo from behind.

And asked curiously.

“Kim Hye-seo is the owner of the Monster Management Bureau… ?”

“Ah, Holder Kim Hye-seo is friends with Professor Na-yeon Park, and she decided to accompany her because she had something to investigate near the research destination.”

“Is that so. Then you could move to the Mana Glader, but why did you choose to move on foot?”

Nayeon helped with this inquiry.

Because it was an expected question.

“It also serves as a training for our cadets. Because they are my children. What, is there a problem?”

“Oh, no.”

Most of the guards were Hunters.

That’s why I was very nervous about the S-class hunter’s question and opened the way.

“Then I will grant you permission to enter.”

“Ho Ho. thanks.”

Nayeon gives him a smile that doesn’t suit him.

And with that smile at the end, we were able to safely pass through the barrier and come out.

‘Is it a start?’

A desolate stretch of plain.

A bleak wind blowing.

Unidentifiable sounds coming from a distant place.

A scene that seems to face a post-apocalyptic worldview.

A sense of oppression and solemnity, which is definitely different from what you see while riding a Mana Glader, strikes you.

In Mana Glader, I felt like I was playing the game from the perspective of a third person, but now I feel like I’m actually in that game.

Feeling that tension with her whole body, she joined Lesha who was waiting outside the barrier.

“You are all here.”

Lesha, who has flown over the barrier, greets you calmly.

When the time came, I was going to tell Lesha’s story to ease the trouble.

It will be possible only when the unstable journey that is just taking off is stabilized.

Because it was before a strong relationship was formed between them.

“Then, shall we go?”

Nayeon and Lesha stood to the left.

Sua and Hyeseo stand to the right.

Looking at them together, I proposed the first step of what might be a long journey.

Soon, we started walking endlessly to the east, where the Taebaek Mountains would be located.

– Tuk-tuk.

-Geeing!!

Along with a picky black dagger.
