Main Character Hides His Strength

17. Floating clouds (2)

The death of Fregius, the head of flamethrower, shocked the Aerfurt School of Magic.

Early in the morning, Kim Sung-cheol could see a rare sight.

There were hundreds of students gathered in the correction.

It was rare in schools where blood transfusions of new students were cut off.

They were staring at the bibliography on the plaza.

There was news of the deaths of the deaths of the professor of flamethrowery.

“Oh my God... Professor Fregius is dead. ”

“One of the twin walls that supports our school has collapsed. ”

“Where does Aefret go now? ”

While he was walking while listening to the conversation, Kim Sung-cheol met a familiar face.

“Hey! Top Alchemist! ”

It was Basil Pilus who looked more like a local brother than a professor.

He shook his hand as if he was watching Kim Sung-cheol for the rest of his life.

Kim Sung-cheol stared at Basil Pilus' hand with a expressionless face.

Vasyl Pilus, shrugged his head.

“Oh, dear. Your face is hot.”

“What's going on? ”

Kim Sung-cheol couldn't find any reason to honor him because he had already seen the bottom of Basil Pilus.

“Good to see you. Have you seen that godfather before? ”

Basil Pilus didn't mind Kim Sung-cheol's attitude whether he knew what was wrong with him.

Kim Sung-cheol asked, looking at Basil Pilus' smiling face.

“Professor Fregius' death? ”

“Yes! Yes. But that's not all. There's a more serious lining! ”

“The lining?”

Kim Sung-cheol also showed interest this time.

I just didn't care because Christian's death was a bigger incident. The death of the person appointed as the leader of the followers of the disaster was a quite interesting topic.

After Kim Sung-cheol's callous attitude softened, Vasyl Pilus was excited and ranted.

“Oh, yeah. You'll be surprised to hear that. Come here.”

He took Sung-cheol Kim to the corner, looked around and said in a small voice.

“This is what I overheard at the faculty meeting. The world says that Professor Fregius was killed the same way three years ago as Principal versus Professor Magnus. In other words, it was the same killer. ”

“How do you propose we do that? ”

After rolling his head for a while, Basil Pilus asked Sung-cheol Kim, and straightened up his thoughts and said.

“Half the bodies were dented like they had been beaten by a tremendous amount of strength. It was as if Meteor had been slapped in the face as if it were an unseen horror. ”

“Meteor?”

Meteor is the main magic of the engineering faction.

Powerful magic that summons celestial comets to strike enemies on the ground.

“That's what I'm saying. But you know Meteor is not something you can use indoors, right? The whole building would have been destroyed, as well as the professor. ”

“He died indoors? What of Fregius?”

Vasyl Pilus nods.

Although the practical experience was richer than anyone else, Kim Sung-cheol has never experienced that kind of magic.

‘I can't rule out the possibility of summoning some kind of magic. ’

It may be natural because we can't even predict the cause in magical schools.

“By the way, who the hell is this guy? Another candidate for principal, Professor Fregius, the one who killed the great Magnus. At least not just any wizard. ”

“The killer is a wizard? ”

“Yes, there was a magical reaction. So it's more chaotic. What kind of wizard killed them. Obviously, he's a powerful wizard, at least enough to battle those struggling professors. People point to Professor Robert Danton, who's the head of the Ice Creek Society. From what I see, it's far from the work of the Frost Magic. ”

At that time, soldiers in shining silver armor from the other side of the square were entering the campus in line with heat.

As they entered the square, a number of students left one or two positions, noticing that the square belonged to the soldiers.

Seeing the sudden uproar, Vasyl Pilus frowns.

“Phew. Here we go again. Purification Dogs.”

Kim Sung-cheol's gaze was also towards the soldiers.

He then caught a glimpse of a man under the guard of his soldiers.

The man in the white robe and the crow mask looked more like a holy thing than a human being.

Is that the Inquisitor? ’

Inquisitors are the most faithful warriors of faith among the two clergy members who serve order, one of the five given in the two worlds.

However, their blind faith often emitted poor energy.

Kim Sung-cheol still remembers a village in the north called the front line disappearing without sin.

He killed three Inquisitors.

Not a very strong opponent.

Kim Sung-cheol's feelings for them were as persistent as a cockroach.

‘I don't want to face them. ’

When I thought about it, I heard Basil Pilus' voice next to me.

“That Inquisitor, there's a rumor that I'm Principal vs. Magnus' half-brother. ”

“Half brother? ”

“Yes. The Magnus family is renowned for its historic Wizard family, and the heretic interrogator, a crooked one, was sent to the cult, while his concubine, the son of the concubine, had even earned the title 'The Great Head'. So it wasn't very good between you two. Well, rumor has it. ”

Since then, Vasyl Pilus has told more stories, but it was a dull story.

Kim Sung-cheol hung up on me appropriately and now turned to go to the engineering group.

But there was a group of wizards headed this way right in front of you.

He was a middle-aged wizard with a group of students dressed in a blue uniform.

There is a face to face with the wizard standing at the forefront.

A face with a firm jaw, sharp nostrils, and unassuming blue eyes.

I'm Robert Danton, Dean of the Ice Creek Society.

As soon as Kim Sung-cheol heard that the dean of the flamethrowers had died, he remembered sending Leonard Bottom away miserably.

That Robert Danton's gaze was now heading straight for Kim Sung-cheol.

He stopped in front of Sung-cheol Kim.

“Can I talk to you for a second? ”

“If only for a moment. ”

Robert Danton did not have much reaction to Kim Sung-cheol's attitude, but the students who stood behind him jumped to their feet.

“You have no manners. Who are you to even look down? ”

“Alchemist. You need to know what you're talking about! ”

Robert Danton raised his hand to shut the mouths of his servants, then opened his mouth again, gazing at Sung-cheol Kim.

“Come to my room for just a little while. ”

“I can't spend too long. ”

Robert Danton's mouth twitches slightly.

He turned to his room first and followed behind him, taking the eyes of Robert Danton's disciples.

Vasyl Pilus, who was suddenly overwhelmed by a sudden situation, mutters while watching their backs with a dazed face.

“Oops. What are you doing here already? I haven't... asked you yet! ”

His request was a simple request not to take away the position of a professor of Alchemy.

*

“I've heard rumors. Said he was a Summoner from the inner circle. ”

Robert Danton opened his mouth as soon as he sat down.

Kim Sung-cheol nodded.

“I'm from the inner circle, too. I came here 15 years ago. ”

I'm talking like it's been a while, but I'm much later than Kim Sung-cheol.

Kim Sung-cheol was summoned about 25 years ago.

It's a completely different relationship from the way it looks.

“Anyway, let's cut to the chase, since you're a little short on time. ”

Robert Danton got up from his seat, closed all the curtains in the room, looked around once, and slowly opened his mouth as he turned behind Kim Sung-cheol.

“Excuse me, but who's your guardian? It doesn't matter if you can't say it, but think carefully and say it because it might misunderstand you. ”

Ask about Kim Sung-cheol's background from the beginning.

The thought of being an honest human has passed through Kim Sung-cheol's mind.

Kim Sung-cheol thought of several candidates in his head.

His chosen criteria is a force that is somewhat powerful but difficult to contact first from Robert Danton's side.

Soon, Kim Sung-cheol thought of a force and said in a bold voice.

“An ancient kingdom.”

“The Ancient Kingdom…?! ”

Robert Danton had his appetite.

“Isn't the Ancient Kingdom forbidden from magic? Why did they send you from a coven that rejected magic itself? ”

“You probably don't even know you're doing well behind my back. ”

When Robert Danton heard that, he opened his eyes and no longer discussed the matter.

But we don't know until he doesn't believe what Kim Sung-cheol said.

Robert Danton opens his mouth again as anxious air flows through the air.

“I've definitely seen what you can do. Technically, it's the power of the force behind you. So I'm saying, will you do me a favor? ”

“What do you mean? ”

Kim Sung-cheol asked a question standing up.

“Be on my side. I'm the only one leading the school now that Fregius is dead. Even though it's just a shell, we're trying to lead this school to a better place. We need a lot of support for that purpose. ”

Robert Danton, who was talking around Sung-cheol Kim, sat down and said again.

“Is your real name? ”

Kim Sung-cheol nodded.

“I thought it was an alias. I was even confident when you created a level 5 Alchemy Item. Oh, the guy who wrote that name wanted to get the school's attention. ”

It's more than a dream.

Kim Sung-cheol lifted up Robert Danton's imagination with a expressionless face.

In that boring story, Kim Sung-cheol was able to read Robert Danton's thoughts.

He assumed that Kim Sung-cheol's Herbal Medicine was not made by Kim Sung-cheol.

Even though it was Kim Sung-cheol who actually made it.

Maybe because he doesn't know alchemy well or he doesn't have anyone else to advise him otherwise.

Either way, it's good for Kim Sung-cheol.

Robert Danton is trying to negotiate with the most dangerous man in the world with no friends or friends due to misjudgement.

“Anyway, I don't know who your friends are, but I can see they're paying a lot of attention to you. I'm from inner circle, too. It's a car with a temperature between its inner sperm. I know better than that. ”

Robert Danton continued to tell a vague story, and at some point he intelligently said what he wanted.

“I need money. That's a lot of money. It's natural for me to be the principal anyway, but I often work hard to get a faster promotion. ”

“What can you give me? ”

Kim Sung-cheol sharply asked.

“If I have the strength, I will give you an important position within Aefre. I'm sure you'll have plenty of fun watching your back. Even though Airfurt is ruined, it's not a bad deal, because the price of one name still remains. ”

In response, Sung-cheol opened his mouth, gazing at Robert Danton with an unshakeable gaze.

“I want to hear specifics. ”

“If you want a teaching position, I'll give it to you. Basil Pilus, who is currently in the Alchemy Department, is an incompetent human being, as you know. He must be expelled. ”

“Isn't it a little early for that? I've been a stranger for less than a year. ”

“I'm not saying I'll give it to you right now. We need to put some underbelly on it. As soon as I'm principal, I'll make sure you take the best elite course that Airfurt can offer you. What do you think?”

“ ……. ”

Kim Sung-cheol didn't say anything.

Robert Danton said with patience, even though he didn't like Kim Sung-cheol.

“Don't you like it? ”

“All I want is the vision of the engineering community. I will ask my successor if I can get you to hand over the vision of the engineering faction to Professor Artuzius. ”

“Altuzius.”

A deep crease is engraved on Robert Danton's forehead.

It was an attitude that seemed to concern me.

After a long time, he nods with a thin smile.

“Let's give it a try. But it's gonna be hard right now. ”

“What does that mean? ”

“Altuzius' stubbornness is great. For the record, he wasn't listening to anyone in the first place. He doesn't even listen to that vicious Fregius. Do you really think he listens to me? ”

“Then we won't. ”

“But he also has a weakness. It's time. A loving girl will listen to anything when it starts to rot. So can you wait for me? ”

Kim Sung-cheol nodded.

It is a judgment because we know that even if he shakes his head here, the result will not change.

Robert Danton looked carefully at Kim Sung-cheol when he felt better.

The man staring at his face, squinting like a reader, suddenly opened his mouth.

“By the way, it looks like you're seeking power from me. I saw that you wanted the vision of the astronomers. ”

“Isn't power everything in this world? ”

Then Robert Danton rolls his eyes as if he was waiting.

“I've never seen the vision of the engineering community, so I can't judge it. To me, it's frankly overestimated. It seems like the chief mixed up a lot that Artuzius killed the Assassin Viceroy. Maybe the Viceroy wasn't feeling well. ”

There's a long line of idle talk, but there's something else Robert Danton would like to say.

“What about the vision of the iceberg, not the astronomer? ”

Kim Sung-cheol shook his head like a knife.

Robert Danton's expression is subtly twisted.

Kim Sung-cheol who saw it thought for a moment.

‘Let's give it a try. ’

When Kim Sung-cheol was dealing with disaster followers, his combat skills were not the only ones he learned.

He also experienced the common psychology and habits of wizards and was learning how to provoke them, how to provoke them, and how to make them feel good.

“I've been asked to come and learn the vision of the engineering community. Or learn something else to replace it. ”

I underlined it.

“Is it hard to replace the Ice Creek? ”

“The flamethrowers and the icebergs cannot be substitutes. ”

“Why do you think that is? ”

“It's too common. ”

That inspired Robert Danton's pride.

Wizards are notorious, but they have a lot of pride.

The look on Robert Danton's face changed slightly.

The flow is similar to the scenario Kim Sung-cheol has experienced so far.

Robert Danton took a deep breath and opened his mouth, staring straight at Kim Sung-cheol.

“If you are on your way to the truth, I can show you a little bit. Not too deep, just a little bit, enough to satisfy you and your acolytes. ”

“What's that? ”

When Sung-cheol Kim asked, Robert Danton opened his mouth with a sly smile.

“To see a slight annihilation. Just a little bit.”

The bad feeling fits perfectly.

Kim Sung-cheol stared at Robert Danton with different eyes.

"Is he also a follower of disaster? ’

The whole school was rotten.

Perhaps the majority of the school members were followers of the disaster and passed through Kim Sung-cheol's mind.

But there was no change in his expression.

Rather, he reaches out for Robert Danton with a relaxed smile.

“That's why I came to Airfurt. ”

Then he opens the Soul Warehouse and pulls out a chest inside.

‘No, I can't believe you already have a soulmate. This guy is bigger than you think, huh? ’

Robert Danton waits for the chest to open, feeling a slight heartbeat.

Soon, Kim Sung-cheol opened the chest with a crude grip.

A dazzling golden light flows from within the box and distracts Robert Danton's gaze.

Kim Sung-cheol picked up one of them with his hands, feeling a smile on Robert Danton's mouth.

Doubloons without Issuer

An unmanned gold coin.

Kim Sung-cheol gave the gold coin to Robert Danton and said in a bold voice.

“Never tell me you got this from me. Unless you want to turn the entire Ancient Kingdom against me. ”

“I swear on my name. ”

Robert Danton smiles cheerfully and replies.

The big fish took the bait.
