Iron Blooded Villain’s Academy Class

Episode 159

Bae Seung-joo was realizing that he was busy recently.

Nekrod’s invasion was over, but he was burdened with more work than before.

And the cause of that task was mostly the corpses of the undead brought by Necrod.

“Currently, about 12% of undead corpses have been identified.”

He began an oral report with a report to Seol Gyu-jin, simplifying the contents.

Naturally, the association and the government wanted to get rid of the hideous corpse right away.

But the fact that even among those undead corpses, some useful parts remained. Accordingly, the association and the government invested manpower with the mindset of digging mines to secure by-products.

However, it was not simply a matter of such financial gain.

“According to the opinion of the Veritas Guild, 58% of the currently identified corpses can be recycled as materials for the cure, ‘Senity’.”

Securing a cure that could prevent the mutation of Lunatic Dawn was now the focus of the association.

“Should I say fortunate out of unhappiness… .”

Even though they cooperated with the Defense Magic Engineering Research Institute, there were difficulties in supplying materials.

Strictly speaking, the main reason was that Necrod wiped out the monsters.

“Yes, but even the part where the supply of materials has been completed is having trouble disposing of the corpse.”

“Are there any problems?”

“Basically, the magicians were mobilized to put on makeup, but it seems that there was a species that gave off inflammable gas while dying among some monsters.”

In order to incinerate the body, he mobilized a flame wizard and burned it. However, explosions occurred in some places.

As the cause, it was assumed that methane gas accumulated from the corpse and flammable gas originally generated from the body of the monster remained.

“The accident resulted in injuries and loss of by-products. To that end, we added a safety check, which slowed things down further.”

“Um… Even if the speed is slow, safety comes first.”

“Yes. There was also an opinion from the government that burial would be safer, but I ignored it.”

“Huh, is there anything I can do to summon a deep sea monster?”

Seol Gyu-jin sighed and said. It was obvious that if you scattered monster corpses into the sea, deep-sea monsters would rise.

“Well, isn’t it common desk administration? But it is understandable that the government is impatient. Currently, complaints from residents in the outskirts are flooding in.”

The defense line built by the association and the government was, of course, centered on the outskirts.

Fortunately, the undead army did not cross the barrier, and their corpses were piled up along the defense line as if besieging the city.

The corpses were piled up like a mountain, and the stench was emanating from it, as well as the level of pollution being so severe that the outskirts were no place to live.

“First of all, we are preparing a windscreen forming device that can block the odor by improving the barrier after consulting with Johanna. The government plans to rent long-term accommodation facilities and provide them as temporary residences. Still, some said they were preparing a lawsuit for damages.”

“… When you take them out of the water, they are people who pack their belongings.”

Hunters and soldiers risked their lives to save them, but some vicious people didn’t appreciate it.

Rather, they are preparing a collective movement to compensate for the damage with red flags.

“People’s hearts are so deceitful. Whenever I see people like that, I feel skeptical, but I never get used to it.”

“Do not worry. Where has this happened once or twice? Fortunately, public opinion is also on our side, so most of them will end in dismissal.”

There were not only cunning people in the world. Rather, there were more people who knew shame, and of course, criticism was poured out towards them.

Still, I couldn’t help but feel sad.

“It would be nice if everyone listened to Mr. Kang’s words… .”

“That’s right.”

The two shook their heads.

I didn’t want to be patronized, so things would get better if people didn’t just be vicious.

A few days later, at the Noblesse Academy training ground.

Kang Tae-min gathered student representatives after a long time.

“Time to see how much better you guys are.”

Except for the 6 representative students, he made a separate class plan and entrusted it to Eruah.

‘I may not be able to win, but I think I can feed at least one shot?’

‘Even my grandfather admitted it. Master too… !’

‘I wonder how strong the other guys must have become.’

Perhaps thanks to the 1:1 training with the strongest, a little confidence was seen in the students’ faces.

Of course, no one thought he could beat Kang Tae-min.

“Song Dae-beom, come up.”

“Yep!”

A voice rang through the silent training ground.

Thanks to Rosalyn’s consideration, this time was occupied by the special class.

It was because the power of the students could not be exposed as they were now confirmed as the real representative.

“Do your best.”

“All right!”

If Kang Tae-min dealt with him sincerely, the match would be won in less than 10 seconds. The goal was to analyze the students’ skills, so I dealt with them with enough leeway.

Of course, from the students’ point of view, every moment was a series of tensions, but anyway.

‘The number of types of explosives that can be used has definitely increased. The magic circle installation speed has also increased.’

When the analysis was over, Kang Tae-min instantly changed into a different person and overpowered the opponent.

“Big… !”

“The retreat I made for you is visible to the opponent. Don’t be afraid to get caught in an explosion. It would be better to set a detonation condition that only you can avoid.”

“Ah, yes! I’ll keep that in mind!”

It’s not training until it’s over like that. Kang Tae-min summarized the points for improvement and pointed out another student.

“Next, Yuhwarin.”

“Yes.”

Kang Tae-min, in turn, grasped the students’ strengths and recited points for improvement.

“Even the spirits heard it.”

“As expected, Master… !”

“I will try harder.”

“Even though it’s a supplement… Thank you very much!”

“As expected, it was impossible to fix it in one day.”

Except for the last one, Inoa, all the other students were thrilled. It was because Lee Noah had been pointed out for improvement while receiving separate training from Kang Tae-min.

Kang Tae-min finished the analysis and aligned the students.

“The administrative office should have contacted you, but we will announce it once more. The venue for this World Congress is Washington.”

World Youth Hunter Championship.

The venue for this year was the United States.

“The departure date is approaching in a week. I believe you have already completed basic preparations such as renewing your passport.”

Well, I would like to say this, but except for Dahyun Ju and Yuhwarin, the other four had no experience of going abroad.

I could see the pupils of Song Dae-beom and Ko Min-soo shaking. It was proof that such a story was necessary.

“And this tournament will probably get more attention than previous years.”

Kang Tae-min immediately continued so that the students would not feel ashamed.

“As you know, this year has been eventful. The crisis is over, but people are tired and vulnerable.”

He recalled the time before the return.

Students are abducted and the Übermensch is terrorizing, and society is thrown into chaos. In the meantime, the association shrank due to Seol Gyu-jin’s death and Bae Seung-ju’s stubbornness.

In the shadows, drugs such as Seed were circulated, criminal organizations sprung up, and Lunatic Money was secretly gaining followers.

It was a strange environment if the villains didn’t explode, and a situation that wouldn’t be strange if the society collapsed if there wasn’t a guild maintained by the 5 strongest.

However, even those five guilds were rotting inside, so catastrophe was only a matter of time.

‘Compared to that… .’

A lot has changed now. The mountains of corpses surrounding the outskirts of the city did not seem to be a problem.

However, that was only Kang Tae-min’s position. It could not be seen as a better situation for people of this era.

“Because of this, people will be hoping for your victory. It will make you forget the pain for a while.”

At those words, the students shook their heads with stiff expressions. They expected it to explain the value of the name ‘representative’ that Kang Tae-min said before.

“But you don’t have to live up to their expectations.”

“… Yes?”

The pupils’ eyes widened. Kang Tae-min spoke calmly.

“What they really want is not your victory. It’s the satisfaction you get from winning. In other words, you are just tools.”

“equipment… .”

“If they make a mistake or lose, they will relentlessly change their attitude. I hope you will not be swayed by such people.”

Joo Da-hyun and Pyo Soo-ho’s expressions stiffened for a moment. Before meeting Kang Tae-min, they were sensitive to others’ reactions, so they could understand the meaning right away.

“The standard of ‘representative’ I said is not for them, but for you guys. I hope you take responsibility so that you are not ashamed of yourself.”

Kang Tae-min took out the etiquette injector and placed it on the floor. The students automatically flinched.

But they put on a grumpy face.

“Teacher… !?”

“OMG… ?”

It was because the etiquette injector had turned into powder and disappeared. Kang Tae-min snorted as he saw the surprised students’ expressions.

“Now you don’t need this.”

The time to come to your senses was long past. Kang Tae-min now trusted his students.

That belief was demonstrated directly to the students.

“Be self-centered, but don’t be a selfish person.”

It was the last lesson Kang Tae-min wanted to convey. After the World Championships, students will decide whether or not to graduate.

Winter was coming.

Late night.

It was a dark day with no moon rising, but it was dazzlingly bright everywhere.

It was because the lights installed everywhere illuminated the surroundings. And beneath it were heaps of hideous corpses.

“Oh, isn’t this filter broken? Can you smell it?

A voice mixed with complaints came out with the sound of his breathing.

“If you do that, that’s about it. Stop talking and move quickly!”

“Wow… I’m really going crazy.”

“If you vomit, you can’t use it? You know you have to ask everything, right?”

Those equipped with gas masks and protective clothing were on the move to prevent the undead from getting poisoned, as well as any pathogenic or toxin infection.

“Chief, there was a reason for giving me a lot of money.”

“of course. It’s not something that can only be said to be good for the stomach.”

“Anyway, we get paid. Soldiers go further out.”

“Wow… I’m glad you were discharged.”

The cost of disposing of undead corpses was also prohibitive. Heavy equipment such as a forklift was not mobilized in case by-products were damaged or an explosion occurred.

Most of them needed manpower, and among them, soldiers were treated as cheap labor.

“By the way, at what age did you clean this up?”

“do not know.”

“Wouldn’t it be nice to make more money if you did it for a long time?”

“It’s better than going into a dungeon and risking your life.”

Hunters with mediocre abilities rather welcomed this situation. There was no threat to simple labor, but it was because the pay was good.

It was a time when the workers were engrossed in their work while continuing small talk.

“Ooh!”

“what? What!?”

“Is it gas?!”

When someone made a loud noise, the workers flinched and backed away.

“Oh, no. The body seems to have suddenly moved… .”

“What nonsense are you talking about? This is the place where you finished checking with the drone?”

Somehow, there could have been an undead that could not move between the corpses. Accordingly, the association took time to detect the mana wave, and put manpower only in places where safety was confirmed.

“No, obviously… .”

“I must have misunderstood because of the gas mask.”

“Hey, look out of the way.”

One of the workers, who like to step out, waved his hand and moved. While everyone is watching him nervously.

“Hey!”

“Wow!”

When he suddenly shouted, everyone backed away in surprise. But nothing happened.

“What, what!?”

“No, there are a lot of maggots that look weird. Aww, that dog is disgusting.”

Curiosity was piqued by those words, and several workers also checked the pile of corpses. As he said, it looked as if maggots had almost covered the body.

“Uh… .”

“They seemed to be moving because they were wriggling.”

“Wow… I will tell you to burn it all down.”

“Now then, let’s concentrate again and do Shimai quickly.”

The workers stuck out their tongues and moved away from the maggot carcass. Just like that, all the morgues left.

The maggots quickly spread everywhere and burrowed into the nasal passages as if they were looking for a home.

and after a while

The corpse’s pupils twitched and rolled, and something like a black thread began to tumble inside them.
