I Became God of War's Youngest Disciple - Episode 87
87fury
Instructor building, conference room.
Also called the surveillance room, a total of 128 communication crystals are placed here..
Not only will it monitor Yeongdo's every move, but it will also be able to respond at any time if a powerful monster invades the retreat camp..
Usually, only three or four monitoring personnel wait here, but during special exams, most of the instructors stay..
Some people even slept on bedding, making the conference room a place full of life..
The total number of instructors in the conference room is twenty..
‘…hmm?’
Among them, the first to sense a sense of discomfort was Soymond, a survival teacher..
128Of the 20 communication modifications, only 28 illuminate the retreat camp..
The remaining 100 are located in every nook and corner of an area with a radius of 10 kilometers around the camp..
‘In order to prepare for a 'just in case' situation..
“That is…….”
One of the crystals was in poor condition..
Screen turns black after intermittent flickering.
Because the crystal was located in a corner, other instructors did not notice..
Soymond also didn't think much about it..
The Butterfly Forest is a mysterious place.
The mana flowing in this area itself is special..
As various relics and magic tools were placed on this land, its nature became more complex..
Because of this, accidents causing confusion between corrections were surprisingly frequent..
So Soymond felt puzzled when more than five communication fixes stopped working..
By that time, other instructors had also expressed their doubts..
“Why is Sujeong like this??”
“Isn’t it a full moon today? In these cases, the magic tool sometimes malfunctions..”
“Anyway, there are too many.?”
“It won't be a big deal.”
Such sayings disappeared as soon as more than 20 modifications lost their function..
Even optimistic instructors felt that the situation was unusual..
“…I don't feel well.”
“Is someone in Yeongdo breaking the crystal??”
“It would be difficult to detect hidden crystals at their level.…….”
“But I can only see this as someone else's doing..”
Then the knights came out.
“We will patrol the surrounding area. Where is the closest place??”
“It’s area A-3… Are you okay??”
“of course. I'll be back in 30 minutes.”
The knights who left did not return for over an hour..
By that time, more than half of the communication crystals were broken..
‘I don't feel good.’
Soymond felt a sense of discomfort, apart from the still unknown ominousness..
In an emergency situation like this, there was no one who would speak loudest..
“…Has anyone seen where Mr. Juan went??”
“Are you a martial arts teacher? I didn't see it.”
“me too.”
“I saw you leaving the conference room earlier..”
Soymond looked over and asked.
“When was that??”
“Well up to that point…….”
Somehow I didn't feel good.
When I looked closely, there were several other criminals in the conference room other than the martial arts teacher..
These days, people have been giving more and more weight to the martial arts teacher's remarks..
‘…….’
Soymond left the conference room, feeling a rising sense of ominousness..
To be exact, I tried to step forward..
“i am here.”
Juan appeared at the entrance to the conference room..
“…….”
“…….”
Normally, many people would have gathered around Juan who appeared at this moment, but there was no sign of that now..
Rather, silence fell..
Juan's whole body was covered in blood..
If you are keen, you will be able to tell that the blood is not Juan's..
“…Teacher Juan, where did you come from and what did you do??”
Juan answered as he took off his blood-soaked robe..
“I just sent the knights into the forest.?”
“That's right.”
“I'm on my way to kill them.”
“What……?”
At that moment, someone jumped out like a spring from among the instructors..
It was a fast, threatening movement reminiscent of a wild animal..
‘Tanko……!’
However, the moment Hunting Teacher Tanko's body reached Juan's very close proximity, his body stopped in midair..
“……!”
It looks like it was caught by something invisible..
Tanko waved his fist and seemed to be trying to attack something, but his hands and feet only grazed the air..
“Stay still, hunting teacher. You don't want to die yet, do you?.”
“…What did you do??”
“I haven't done anything yet. Because you too are a precious sacrifice. Of course, if you bother me any longer, I can't just sit by and watch.-.”
Tanko threw a kick..
However, just before the tip of his toe stuck into Juan's face, Tanko's body flew all the way to the wall with a loud noise..
“I told you to stay still..”
“Mr. Tanko!”
Soymond quickly ran to Tanko..
And his expression became scary and stiff..
died.
“Oh my, this can't be happening…….”
Tanko, the great warrior and great criminal of the grasslands, died in a single blow..
“What on earth is this?!”
“Teacher, do you know what? Just a century ago, didn't lawmakers know that there were different types of human blood? They carried out blood transfusions indiscriminately, not knowing that when different types of blood were mixed, the blood would coagulate and the patient would die. How many patients died as a result of that ignorance??”
Soymond said to Juan with fear:.
“how… What on earth are you talking about??”
“Ignorance is tragedy. That's why Teacher Tanko died. They didn't know the natural truth that if you attack a priest during a ceremony, you will be punished..”
“It's consciousness?”
Some people forcibly raised the corners of their mouths and said.
“Now, you're being too playful, martial arts teacher.…….”
“haha. I guess you still feel like it’s a joke..”
“What is this if not a joke! Wow, I can't believe Teacher Tanko died like this... Isn't it strange?!”
Juan laughed quietly.
“There's nothing strange. Guys, isn’t this an extremely bad joke??”
Soymond now understands the situation.
The being in front of you is an obvious enemy..
“How dare you say Badniker’s name with that dirty mouth?…….”
“Is there any reason you can't say it? I'm talking about one of Badniker's iron rules..”
“It's an iron rule?”
“Strong self-respect.”
This is the moment when Juan stretched out his arms..
Black slime rose from the floor and began to devour the instructors and knights..
“What the hell is this?……!”
“Don't panic! Get in formation!”
“And the attack doesn't work.!”
Not only blades but also protection and magic did not work on the slime that moved organically like a living thing..
The slime approached the instructors, ignoring all attacks, and swallowed them up in an instant..
They did not give up even when their entire bodies were covered in mucus..
It looked as pitiful as a struggling animal caught in a net..
The slime soon subsided, surrounding all the instructors in the room..
“… An angel will soon appear here. He is much stronger than Badniker's matriarch, Sanghyeolgong. So it is right for us to obey Him.”
…….
“So far, is there anything strange??”
There was no one left to answer Juan's words..
* * *
“…….”
“…….”
Playback is over.
We stood there in silence for a while..
The video contained the identity of the priest in a ridiculously simple way..
“Was the martial arts teacher a dark person? … . It's far beyond what I expected..”
Charon muttered to himself..
By this guy's standards, it looks like that..
I didn't find it particularly surprising..
For some reason, from the beginning, the martial arts teacher Juan felt uncomfortable to me..
My theory is that people who laugh without being funny have a high probability of being upset..
“Is this the end of the video??”
“I guess so..”
Where did Juan go after this?,
It is unknown what happened to the remaining living instructors..
So, Karon and I naturally headed upstairs..
“…wait for a sec.”
Then Charon said.
“…The human scale above is moving..”
“what? Are you trying to run away??”
“no. It's coming this way. It's ridiculously fast... … . Already here-.”
Jeopuk-.
I heard footsteps outside the door..
I wrapped my fist around a firearm, and Charon quietly lowered his posture..
It's good-.
And the conference room door opened..
“…what. Are you still alive?.”
woman with a bored face.
The woman dressed as a religious nun had a familiar face..
One of the Daesapbeoms.
Doctrine teacher Junian.
“…….”
“…….”
Of course, Karon and I did not relax..
Is this woman an enemy or an ally?.
While contemplating, Junian spoke in a feeble voice..
“I thought Badniker's support came.…….”
“…….”
I nodded towards Charon, who glanced at me..
We said as we relaxed our battle stance..
“Instructor Junian, what happened??”
“What is the instructor doing in this yard... Junian is fine. Rather, do you guys have the beginning of the year??”
“…….”
Is it okay for a priest to smoke tobacco??
I don't know much about the doctrine of the Sun Church..
Anyway, seeing him looking for cigarettes from Youngdo, it seems like this guy has lost his taste too..
“I don't have any.”
“okay? It's a shame.”
“What exactly happened here? I saw Juan show his magic and turn the hunting teacher into something like that..”
“I saw? ah. Did you use communication modification? You're smart..”
Junian nodded to himself in a low voice and sat down on a blood-covered chair nearby..
“Everyone has already left. I was out in the forest for a while because of work and it saved my life..”
“Did the priest not realize the instructor’s existence??”
“I'm good at avoiding the attention of demons..”
“…….”
I have heard that Junien is an inquisitor for the church..
When it comes to fighting demons, he's probably a better expert than Tanko..
“Do you know where the priest went?”
“I'm going to go to where the altar is. It's one of the tools you need to summon the devil..”
altar.
Seren came to mind at that word..
If Juan knew the location of the Altar of the Forgotten God... A ceremony for the devil's descent could be held there..
“But are you two the only ones in the group??”
Charon responded to Junian’s words..
“There are a few more outside..”
“okay? Is there even Evan Helvin??”
“yes.”
With those words, I looked at Junian again..
It's still a bored face with not even a trace of faith in it.…….
“Instructor.”
“I told you to call me Junian..”
“Could I please ask you a few verses from the religious scriptures??”
“suddenly? Right now?”
I nodded while Charon looked at me like I was crazy..
“yes.”
“why?”
“I saw a devil on my way here and I was so scared. As a Youngdo, I was embarrassed, but the fear was eating away at my whole body. I think I would be encouraged if I could listen to a few verses of the scriptures from the instructor, who is a faithful priest..”
Junian said to me with an annoyed face..
“hmm… It's a bit weird to do it suddenly. The place is a bit different too.”
He said that while looking at the blood-covered conference room, so I said, putting my hands together in prayer..
“Because it’s a place like this, we need to do more. It looks like you haven't comforted the lion's soul yet..”
“Hmm…….”
“Or maybe the instructor, who was a heresy inquisitor, doesn't know the scriptures??”
“…….”
Only then did Charon look at Junian with a hard face, as if he felt something..
