139 – For growth – 2

Yangjun seemed taken aback by Scarwie’s words.

It would be absurd to say that he was an angel in the sky and then fell to the ground himself.

“You look so incredulous.”

“Oh. It’s not like that… But I’ve never heard of Azazel before.”

“I bet. Very few people know about Azazel.”

Skawi smiled and shook his head.

“Could you elaborate?”

When Yang Jun was amazed, Scar Wei closed his mouth and looked at him. Then he turned his gaze to me.

“1999. Then 2012. There was a time when the world almost came to an end.”

Yes. As she said

When dungeons first appeared in 1999, and when a huge wave of monsters broke out in 2012, the world almost came to an end.

Among them, the monster wave in 2012 was able to pass through the efforts and sacrifices of humans who experienced a risk and prepared for it.

But what about 1999?

A test of the end that suddenly came upon humans who were not even ready for anything.

Awakeners appeared at the same time as dungeons and monsters appeared, but it took time for those awakeners to fight properly.

It’s time to hone your strength and train again.

“1999. We fought for our lives to buy time.”

Those who are currently teachers of each aptitude. They did that

“But it wasn’t enough just for us. That’s because the apocalypse wasn’t something that could be easily prevented. For people who lived ordinary lives, dungeons and monsters. Even if you became an Awakener, everything was terrible and painful.”

Instructor Yangjun swallowed his saliva at the voice full of bitterness. Scarwi, who looked at the movement of his neck with pleasure, quietly looked at me.

“Then one day. It was when the first white dungeon occurred and other dungeons were being created around it as a result. We tried to attack the white dungeon, but we had no choice but to fail.”

“But…!”

“Yes. White dungeons could easily be conquered by current S-class people. But at that time, other people, including myself, were at the level of A-class even if they were the best.”

It wasn’t just that.

Not only was the system not well established, and even the technology using the energy core was not as active as it is now.

There were no excellent equipment made with the know-how accumulated by the Association, and there were no artifacts that could be obtained from the ruins.

In a situation where they had no choice but to fight with their own skills, there was a ray of light that appeared to them.

“It was a deep night. A pitch-black night. A meteor fell from the sky while we were all in despair.”

As if recalling the past, Scarwee closed her eyes. And he put a faint smile on his lips.

“When we went there, what we found was a woman. She was a woman with hair as black as the night sky. She was a very mysterious woman.”

“What was so amazing?”

“Because she had wings on her back. But when she came to her senses, those wings were gone in flames.”

“…Huh. Has that ever happened? I’ve never heard of that before…”

“Well. At the time, the association was at the level of matching the assortment, and information was shared only with people I knew…”

Scar Wee smiled and shook her head.

“She called herself Azazel, and she told me the world was being tested now.”

“It’s a test…”

“Apocalypse. In the time of the end, they said that humanity is being tested to see if it can survive or not.”

At Scarwie’s words, Yangjun’s expression became serious.

“Is this… Can I listen to it?”

“Where are you going to talk?”

“Oh no. Just…”

“That’s all right. By the way, it’s a story that even the president of the academy and the high-ranking members of the association know.”

The words that the world is undergoing an end-time test could cause great confusion.

However, Instructor Yangjun has a heroic sense of duty. And he is also the main character of Hero Academy.

As such, he won’t use it to create confusion just because he hears stories related to the apocalypse.

It was like that in the game too.

“It is the blue bird that calls the end that announces the time of the test.”

“…….”

“Anyway, going back to the story… Azazel told us that he refused to let the human race come to an end, and that he fell from the heavens himself to help humans. So, he joined us in clearing the White Dungeon. Came out.”

“Oh… Was Azazel using the buff then?”

“Yes yes. She is an angel who has lost her wings, so she couldn’t use her power properly, but she could only use the power to strengthen others. She gave us powerful buffs. Thanks to that, we can I was able to clear the white dungeon.”

“A powerful buff… So where’s Azazel?”

“I don’t know.”

“Yes?”

Instructor Yangjun asked with a bewildered face, and Scar Wi shrugged his shoulders.

“A powerful demon that appeared after conquering the White Dungeon. After defeating the demon to bring about the end, she disappeared. As if she never existed in the first place. It disappeared as if it were a mirage.”

And since then, the frequency of monsters and dungeons appearing has decreased.

Thanks to this, humanity gained time and was able to safely pass through the first apocalypse.

“That…”

“Since then, the Association has been working hard to find Azazel. Anyway… It’s weaker than the buffs Azazel used, but your buffs are quite useful.”

Since his aptitude hasn’t been enhanced yet, it’s bound to fall short compared to Azazel.

“It’s a pity. If Azazel-sama met you… Maybe the association knows that, so they’ll keep an eye on you, and they’re working hard to find Azazel. Of course… The villains won’t stand still.”

Villain. Those who use power only for their own desires.

In order to keep Azazel out of their hands, the association hid as much information about Azazel as possible… The story was.

Well, the part about finding Azazel will be solved as you progress, so there is no problem.

At the end of Chapter 2, if you get the true ending route points in the confrontation with Eon Ju-yeong, you can ride the true ending route.

“Well. That will work somehow.”

“Whoops. I see. But what brought you here?”

“Ah. Yohan also participated in the Ruins raid this time… I have to train like the others, but I don’t know how to train the buff.”

Scar Wie thought for a moment at the words full of trembling, then nodded his head.

“Of course it is. Azazel-sama also said that enhancement is a special power.”

“But in the end, it’s a skill. Isn’t it the answer to constantly use it and increase your skill level?”

At my words, Scar Wie opened his eyes wide, looked at me, and smiled.

“Yes. Yes. Effort. Don’t forget that being right is the most important thing. Um… Yes. I’ll give you this.”

Ah?! Unexpected equipment acquisition event here?!

The anticipation rose.

This is Scarwee, who just talked about Azazel.

And I wanted to have something to do with Azazel.

So, wouldn’t it be possible that original equipment for buffers that couldn’t exist in this world came out?

“Take this with you.”

From nob le mt l. co m

No.

What she held out was an old necklace.

[Bloodstone of Concentration]

[A jewel that increases concentration. When applied to equipment with skills, the power of the skill increases slightly.]

Buffs also belong to skills, so if my buffs get stronger, the power itself increases. I think that’s why he gave it to me.

The soul ring I have now has the power of the soul, so I need to put it on.

“It’s something I got before. You’d rather have it than I do.”

“It would be better if Mr. Scarwee stepped forward himself…”

“Hohoho. I’m already old and sickly. It won’t help much if I step in. Now we just have to live like the old people in the back room. Don’t you think this end must be prevented by this generation?”

At Scarwie’s words, Instructor Yangjun let out a big sigh. Well, I can’t tell those who suffered so much in the past to save the world again.

“Okay. But teaching the cadets…”

“Don’t worry about that. And… You said John?”

“Yes?”

“Take good care of the child over there… Yuchoa.”

You Choa. The protagonist of this world.

And she confessed to liking me.

I looked at Yu Choa in her lotus position and nodded her head.

“You’re reliable. Ah. The meditation will be over in a little while, so would you like to meet me?”

“Yes, I do.”

“Then why don’t you take a break over there? Yangjun. You’re following me for a while.”

As Scarwee took Instructor Yangjun to another place, I sat in a chair and looked at Yoo Choa.

She seems to be concentrating quite a bit, not even moving. Seeing that she is concentrating differently from her usual smiley face, it seems that her mood has changed quite a bit.

Um… Anyway, I hope you don’t get mad at me for this.

-Diriririring!!

Then she rings the alarm. Her closed eyes slowly opened and Yoo Choa’s gaze met mine.

“What?! John? Why are you here?”

It was a puzzled yet delightful voice. Slowly rising, she covered her lips and smirked.

“Ahhh? Ehhhhh? This. This… Could it be that you came here because you missed me?! Ehh. Did you feel lonely because you didn’t have noona? Huh? Huh? Let’s go to sleep. I’ll give you a hug~.”

She approached her with open arms, and just as she was about to hug me, I reached out and grabbed her head.

“Ouch! What a shame!”

“No, I’m not particularly ashamed. I have something more to say than that.”

“…Really? You look serious?”

She took a few breaths in and nodded her head.

“I’ll give you an answer tonight.”

“…Aren’t you too fast?”

“Think deeply, but make decisions quickly. This is my life motto.”

There is no need to waste time.
