I Became an Academy Regular

Tower – Arihan Hector (1)

‘There is only one person who is Riyu’s older brother and is wearing a mask.’

In the original work, he became the headmaster of ‘Eclipse’, and in this world, he died after being purified by Arthur Grand along with Liu.

Did the guy originally look like this? Of course, I had no choice but to not know. Even in the setting book, the headmaster of Eclipse did not appear, let alone his real name.

‘Layue Grace….’

Even the holy sword, which he had noticed with his aura, spoke sternly.

His appearance was covered by a mask, and his body was resurrected, so even if it was natural to not recognize him, his tone of voice had changed.

I asked Grace to confirm.

“Are you the person who wore a mask back then?”

“Five. Do you know?”

“···Not at all. Because the Holy Sword recognized me too…, yo.”

uhm. I don’t know why they were being polite at the time, but now being treated with uncomfortable respect.

[Why is that guy respectful?]

So is my opinion.

Is that really my intrinsic nature? Anyway, this isn’t important, it’s just why you approached it…

‘Honestly, I mean it’s reluctant.’

Even if he cooperated obediently in the temple and died with Liu, if we were to classify it by its disposition, it was clear that he had an evil disposition. Perhaps the tone of voice is intentional to reduce hostility.

“Jihan. Anyone know?”

Drakhan lowered his sword and looked back at me.

“Yes, a little. Why did you come to us?”

“Did you not tell me? He said he came to see the light of the holy sword. Maybe there were no paladins or saints at that time?”

Are you talking about Arthur Gran and Astiel Gran? I shook my head.

“They didn’t come with them. Besides, I am in charge of the holy sword now.”

Grace made a hopeful expression.

“It seems like a lot has happened. Maybe dead…”

“It’s not like that. Haven’t you seen it either?”

“ah. The most recently dead souls will be on the 5th basement floor, but as I can see they aren’t. Because of the beautiful Hector.”

“Awesome Hector?”

“Wait, Jihan.”

Drakhan put down his sword, but that’s all. He still looked at Grace with alert eyes.

“Did you say Grace? We came to Hell because we had work to do. It’s a bit harsh to say, but it’s good that the dead aren’t involved.”

“Aren’t you here to deal with the handsome Hector? Can you help?”

“What do you mean by a dead you?”

“Because I have been observing the deeds of Arihan Hector until recently.”

Grace frowned and muttered.

“It is for that reason that I came to the altar after seeing the light of the holy sword. Only by helping you will I be able to kill the beautiful Hector.”

“It’s rather suspicious to say that. We’ve already seen Arihan Hector dealing with ghosts. Grace, I think you may be being manipulated too.”

“If you think that way, there is no way to prove otherwise. But I want to cooperate with you.”

Grace turned her gaze from Drakhan to me.

“Because I knew that Arihan Hector was behind the Maiden Kess. I want revenge on him.”

[Seo Seo-han. Can you tell me something?]

If the Holy Sword had a face, it was a tone that would have made a displeased expression.

[I hope you realize that Arihan Hector is behind it, or that Maiden Kess has nothing to do with him.]

It seems that Grace’s words could not be overcome, perhaps because she was active as a holy sword despite her usual appearance of missing screws. He wouldn’t have to say it because he could only be heard by me , but there was no reason for him to ignore the Holy Sword’s words.

“Please tell me . . .”

After hearing the words of the Holy Sword, Grace frowned as if she was momentarily displeased. However, he didn’t seem to have anything to say on his own, so he sighed and looked at the holy sword.

“Excuse me, I am aware of that. But that’s not the reason why I shouldn’t be hostile to Hector.”

[her···.]

For some reason, I thought I should continue the conversation in the middle, so I switched to another topic.

“Have you met Liu?”

“You mean Liu?”

Grace’s face changed, and she showed a bitter but remorseful expression.

“I can’t see it. As far as I know, the soul itself must have been destroyed because it was awakened as a holy thing.”

First of all, Ryu Seo-yeon is in charge of the wreckage called ‘Lieu’, but in reality, it is not Liu.

A reaction that appears to be rational is a natural phenomenon of living beings. It wasn’t Liu’s soul.

If he had been bound by such rubble in the first place, there would be no way the temple could have been left alone.

[That guy’s guess is correct.]

“They say the holy sword is right.”

“okay? That’s good. . . . So what do you think?”

Me and Drakhan exchanged silent glances and then nodded. We were not in a position to seek help. Even if it’s an award.

“great. Let’s talk.”

“It is the right decision.”

When I took Grace with me to the altar, the resting people looked at me in amazement.

Layette reflexively gripped the sword she was grooming.

“Who is that?”

“He must be a smart person. He’s the one who wore the mask when he was in Maiden Curse.”

“Maiden Curse…?”

“ah?”

While everyone reacted to the Maiden Curse, Arwell was the only one who responded to the rumor that he was wearing a mask. Was Arwell the only person you met in person here?

Grace sneaked closer to see if she remembered Arwell’s face.

“The appearance has changed a little, but that weapon man back then. Right?”

“Yes···? That’s right.”

“for a moment. Why don’t you come so reckless?”

When Riel intervened to stop Grace from approaching, Grace raised her hands and stepped back. In the meantime, Arwell had a long expression on his face, even though he knew him.

“Arwell. He was the masked person I went to with Noah back then.”

As soon as I made sure, Arwell’s face turned pale in an instant. Why? I understand it’s unfamiliar, but…

I remembered something I had forgotten.

It was Arwell wielded by Noah Park who beheaded the headmaster.

It was like killing Grace’s father. Perhaps noticing Arwell’s reaction, Grace said with a grin.

“If it’s because of your father’s work, then you don’t have to worry about it. I would have killed him anyway.”

…that’s it. words of comfort.

“Grace. Come to think of it, what happened to the headmaster and other members of the Maiden Curse?”

“Everyone is in bondage to Arihan Hector. It wasn’t affected by its power, probably because it was purified with the Holy Sword. He went up on his own to the 4th floor before being attacked by Arihan Hector. ”

Grace continued to look around to see who was at the altar.

Riel glared at him with a reluctant expression. It seems to be wary of Grace in a similar way to Drakan.

“As you know, the 5th basement floor is where the most recent dead souls accumulate. It is very rare for a soul to realize that he died there and regain his sanity like I did. …but you can’t see the untitled?”

“There are circumstances.”

Arwell’s face darkened and I answered instead.

“I am unable to function normally now.”

“is that so? If she was there, I think she would have been a great power.”

“Perhaps···.”

Then Arwell hesitated and asked Grace. The feeling of catching even straw was clear.

“Do you know what to do with a person who is only alive and cannot find a reason?”

“The opposite sex…, huh?”

“You can think of it as a ritual. It moves, but it doesn’t respond to external stimuli.”

As I added, Grace was silent for a moment, as if contemplating. Then he opened his mouth as if he had remembered something.

“Simply put, you are out of your mind.”

“…well, that’s right.”

“Can I solve that problem? If necessary, I can cast a curse on you.”

Come to think of it, the Maiden Curse is a guild of wizards who were kicked out of the tower with cursed magic. There was no way that the son of the headmaster who was the guild leader couldn’t use magic.

‘Even the ones that were kicked out because of its efficiency.’

Arwell looked at Grace with a worried face, wondering if the word cursed.

“Are you talking about a curse…?”

“yes. Once you do, the effect will be obvious. If you don’t know anything else, you just need to be mindful, right? After casting a curse, there is a holy sword, so it can be purified.”

Surely it might be.

If you cast a curse on someone whose legs are immobile, they may not move again when you erase them.

‘But what if that’s a ritual?’

Even if I purify the curse, will I be able to lose consciousness, not my senses, again? The subject is T.O.P’s child, Noah Park.

I have to see it below. It’s definitely a better way than killing them.

“Grace. then···.”

“Hopeful news is good, but for now, let’s stop talking about it.”

Ahat, who was listening to the story, approached. Ahart said he stood in front of Grace and looked down at him.

“Dead wizard. Let me tell you everything about the beautiful Hector.”

“yes? Oh, I see.”

Grace nodded her head involuntarily at the pressure of some unknown.

“First of all, we have to go back from Hell and reorganize. It will fail like this.”

It was Ahart who spoke with Grace. As for the objective analysis of power, it was natural that the wizard Ahat would do better than me.

“Why do you decide to fail?”

“Besides the beautiful Hector, there are many wizards who are his limbs.”

“Are you talking about dead wizards…?”

“yes. It seems that something pretty big is happening in the tower right now. A lot of strong souls are coming. They are gradually being held in bondage by the beautiful Hector. Among them are some of Hector’s disciples, but most of them are rational souls on the 5th floor.”

Ahat scratched his cheek and answered.

“Ugh. I’m in charge of Arihan Hector, so it doesn’t matter, but the other limbs are the problem. If there are too many, it will be a headache.”

“Wait a minute, you are playing the beautiful Hector. Are you a lord?”

“However.”

At those words, Grace was startled, and the way she looked at Ahat changed. Maybe it was because he was kicked out during the Maiden Curse, so he seems to have reacted to the words to leave.

Ahat raised his chin with a sullen expression.

“If you talk about this topic for nothing, the atmosphere can get weird, so let’s move on.”

Ahat must have killed a member of the Maiden Kers. It would be right to take it out and move on because it makes each other uncomfortable.

“…as it is, I think it’s unreasonable to have this number of people. As you said, Arihan Hector will not be able to deal with all the other wizards even if the Lord is dealing with him.”

“If that’s the case, that’s fine.”

This time, Drakhan wearing a mask spoke, and Riel, who was sitting next to him, folded his arms. It was kind of elated for some reason.

“This is the wizard hunter. You don’t have to worry about unnecessary things.”

“…Are you talking about a fallen hero?”

Grace put on an absurd look on her face and then smiled bitterly.

“Huh. To be honest, I thought the numbers were low against Arihan Hector, but they are literally in the minority.”

“I have a question, but do you think my personality will work for Hector, who is beautiful in the eyes of a wizard?”

“If all the rumors about you are true, I think it will work. Until recently, he had suffered quite a bit from the wounds of the Holy Sword. However, the range of individuality must be a problem.”

“Hmm. We will take care of that matter.”

Drakhan didn’t say anything about the scope of his personality, just in case.

It’s the right attitude Arihan Hector, if not, is likely to be heard by his disciples. Grace, even if you are not conscious of it, along with the probability that you are already limbs.

“For now, I will explain everything I know. The current state of the 5th basement floor.”

“Before that, I have a question.”

“Yes. You tell me.”

When he thought he was going to tell a long story, Layt coughed and said.

“I was talking about the magic of the curse earlier. Is it possible to increase the ability?”

“yes. You pay a certain price and you can think of it as having that much effect.”

“What is the biggest price?”

“That is, of course, a lifetime.”

Layette wanted to think for a moment, then said without thinking.

“Could you give it to me?”
