An Angel Lives in the Academy Chapter 26

Episode 26: The angel who drew the holy sword (3)

So what is the referee’s next plan?

Now that we have obtained an alibi and the favor of the professors through Soya, it is now time to intervene in the Moon Cats’ operation through Hongwol.

‘So… … .’

Knowing the future, he intervenes in this operation and makes an operation that would have otherwise failed, a success. In this way, he prevents the Moon Cat clan and Gumyo Fortress from falling to the Demon King’s army.

‘And by saving a clan from corruption, he gains enormous angelic power… … !’

This was the referee’s plan. But a plan is just a plan until it succeeds. A dangerous box filled with countless possibilities. No one knows whether it contains treasure or a trap.

Still, it is human psychology to open it.

‘The time I can talk to Hongwol… I think swordsmanship classes are the most appropriate.’

Hongwol was a famous person in the swordsmanship department. He has the appearance of being chosen as one of the best in the military, has pink hair, cat ears and a tail, and is so talented that when sparring, a teaching assistant, not a fellow first-year student, has to deal with him directly.

Because of these characteristics, Hongyue was famous… … .

If you say that, you are lying.

There was another reason why Hongwol was famous. She was famous because she was a beast and the next chieftain of the Moon Cat Clan.

The culture of comparing beasts to beasts and discriminating against them still subtly remains among superhumans. Because many beastmen are still collaborating with the Demon King’s army to invade humanity.

Therefore, the logic is that it is inevitable to treat them as monsters. Of course, it is sure to be an assumption that will upset the beastmen who are hostile to the Demon King.

But isn’t the Moon Cat clan ambiguous? Not only did they not bow down to the devil, but their actions were criminals themselves. The clan’s livelihood is assassination and theft.

The children of the family and guild, who had originally thought of ignoring beastmen, slandered Hongwol based on the evil nature of the Moon Cat clan.

“Look at how he handles the sword. “How many people did you kill?”

“I guess all that technology was stolen anyway.”

Conspiracy? Is this a conspiracy?

Anyway, fact violence is also violence.

Hongwol ignored what the others were saying and focused on sparring. In the end, Hongwol’s victory is confirmed.

“Huh… “You won.”

“… Thank you for your effort.”

And another student mutters.

“Ah, I thought my eyes were rotting from watching the dirty beastman swordsmanship.”

“therefore.”

… Hongwol didn’t care. After all, it is a well-known fact that humans are afraid of their own moon cat clan.

I didn’t plan on attending this academy for a long time anyway, and if I just stole the holy sword, I didn’t care what those guys would say.

‘So it’s okay.’

In fact, Hongwol was quite concerned. She is a girl who has been trained as an assassin and thief her entire life and has never been to school or anything like that. Moreover, she was born in Gumyo Citadel, the worst slum on Earth, and she had no idea how her school worked.

The only schools she had ever seen were those that appeared in movies and dramas. The girl admired those schools. She admired the famous youth drama so much that she watched it several times. Study and play with your classmates, and there is no heavy content such as clan survival or assassination… … .

And I’m in a relationship… … .

‘Such a school… I do not need… … .’

When longing is broken, people become miserable.

Hongwol felt such misery for the first time in a long time.

“Referee.”

“why?”

A male cadet who had been making fun of himself stopped the referee who had just finished sparring. Hongwol was terrified when he saw the scene.

“Don’t go there now. “The animal smell is strong.”

Of course I know you won’t.

But what if… If that boy also makes fun of him, calling him an animal, teasing him as a thief, and accusing him of being a murderer… That boy who had been gently stroking me until yesterday… … .

‘If you insult me… … .’

Then, Hongwol might not really be able to endure. And then the boy started asking questions.

“beast?”

“Okay, look. That sweaty thief over there. “It’s a feline beast.”

The referee looked at a girl beyond the cadet’s gaze. He was taller than his peers, and as a member of the Moon Cat clan, his model-like curves were the same as always.

However, there is a difference… The fact that he is looking down in some kind of sadness? And the tail that was always wagging was drooping.

‘These kids… Are you fearless? What are you going to do to retaliate when Hongyue becomes the chieftain?’

How dare you make fun of Hongyue, the next chieftain of the Moon Cat Clan? They all have really big livers.

‘Hey guys. Play with yourselves. I need to get along well with Hongwol because of my future plans… I should just ignore it. for a moment… … .’

The referee thought it went well.

This was an opportunity to earn angel power.

“He crept into our academy without shame and stole sword skills… … .”

“stop.”

“what?”

The referee muttered as he wiped away his sweat.

At that moment, the pink cat’s ears perked up.

“Hongyue didn’t steal the sword technique. “They said it was the clan’s secret technology.”

“Ha, bastard. There’s a part of him that’s as innocent as he looks. “Do you believe that?”

“Yes, I believe in Hongwol.”

The referee declared.

‘Hongwol won’t steal your poor swordsmanship. The Moon Cat Clan’s Wolmyo Swordsmanship is of such a high level that it competes for superiority with Cheonggu Swordsmanship.’

Because of that thought, his expression was full of confidence.

Of course, to a certain pink girl, it seemed like she was making that expression because she really believed in someone named Hongwol.

“So don’t make fun of people.”

“… person? “That is not a person, but an animal.”

“If not a person, what is it? “I have never seen anyone as beautiful as Hongyue.”

The moon cat clan has excellent hearing. The referee may not have known it, but a pink girl was listening to this conversation from afar.

“what. “Are you a beast lover too?”

“Are you going to keep calling me an animal? If a beauty like Hongwol is a beast, what on earth are you? “A bean bug or something like that?”

They say bean bugs.

Hongwol smiled for the first time today.

“You, you will regret it if you act like this. If you stick with that beast… … .”

“What can you say, you’re a cowardly scoundrel who bullies multiple people, and I’m not at all afraid of a scoundrel like that making threats. fool. Bean bug!”

Phew – People around me started laughing too.

The referee couldn’t swear due to the nature of the angel race, so no matter how much he lost his temper, he had a sad tone that seemed cute.

Even Park Jin-ho said, “Bean bugs? Tsk tsk. “It’s a fitting nickname.” He loved the referee’s tone of voice. And he shouted.

“You guys have no shame in gathering so many people to threaten a girl! assistant!”

“Yes, Professor.”

“Give the referee a store and give penalty points to the rest of the cadets.”

“We will reflect this immediately.”

An angry voice suddenly fell, and the group that was swearing at Hongwol dispersed, their faces blushing with shame.

“you… … .”

“Well, let’s go first.”

The referee smiled brightly at the angel power that had just arrived, not knowing that Hongwol was listening to everything he said.

‘I didn’t know there would be this many people. It’s been a while since I was able to raise my ability level.’

The current referee’s stats are ‘Strength: 10, Agility: 10, Magic: 12, Paranormal Ability: 5’.

The referee’s goal is to raise all abilities to 10 or higher. This is because there was one privilege that could only be obtained by doing so.

‘At this point, it’s common to focus on one ability. Focusing on other stats is literally a waste of money and time.’

It takes a lot of effort and money to raise one ability level. If it’s such a valuable ability, shouldn’t you focus on where you need it rather than investing it where you don’t need it?

It was basic choice and concentration.

‘That’s why the privilege wasn’t discovered. The achievement that can be achieved when all abilities are raised to 10 or higher… … .’

So the referee consumed angel power to increase his paranormal ability. If he raises just four more points, the referee will achieve a privilege.

‘We need more angel power… … .’

In the end, this too was a problem that required more angel power.

Hongwol had already left.

The boy was the first person to tell me that he believed he was not an animal, a murderer, or a thief.

I’m filled with an overwhelming feeling that I can’t explain. Hongwol had no choice but to quickly escape from there.

There was someone who finally noticed that Hongwol had disappeared. It was the referee.

‘for a moment… Oh, where has Hongwol gone?’

I can’t believe I forgot the most important thing in today’s class because I was farming angel power.

… It was a mistake worthy of an idiot angel referee.

* * *

Hongwol looked for a place to rest with complicated feelings. It would be nice to have something like a box where I could properly stretch my body… … .

I couldn’t see the box, but I was able to find a shady corner where people wouldn’t pass by. Feeling like a chicken instead of a pheasant, Hongwol naturally took that corner.

Being in a small place makes me feel calm.

With such a stable mind,

I quietly gathered my thoughts.

‘After stealing the holy sword… ‘I will never be able to attend this academy again.’

Originally, I thought it didn’t matter.

In an academy created by heroes who were defeated anyway, what can we learn from those who have already failed? I volunteered for this operation simply because I was curious about what the Academy I saw on TV was like.

‘Then I will never be able to take the same class as the boy again…’ … .’

There is a feeling of regret. Hongwol was now learning the feeling of regret.

‘You said you trusted me… … .’

Mother’s teachings. Clan discipline.

What Hongwol really wants to do… … .

‘What should I do if I say I want to continue going to school? You’ll get beaten up by your mother. I might have to be stripped naked and hung in a corporal punishment room.’

I suffered a lot when I was young.

Sometimes those memories made it difficult for Hongwol to sleep deeply. And if she says she wants to stay at the academy because of one guy… … .

‘I might die… … .’

As expected, Hongwol had no options left.

The little girl’s thoughts deepened, and the moon leading the cat rose high in the sky.

* * *

The moon that guides the cats rises high in the sky, and cats drawn by the moon gather one or two at a time into a cathedral.

The referee thought.

‘I decided to negotiate with the Moon Cat clan today. Who wants to come out? After all, Hongwol?’

Next to the referee was Soya, slightly shaking. I’ve felt it before, but Soya is a bit scared.

“This, this… “It’s because of the dark-hating cold.”

Soya lowered her visor and excused herself. The referee silently stroked the perfume on Soya’s hand. Isn’t there something called aromatherapy? As it is literally a heavenly aromatherapy, you will feel more at ease now.

“Is it getting warmer?”

“huh… … .”

He was a referee who cared about angel power like breathing.

And at that moment… … .

“Yes, witch. “She came out without running away.”

“… “Hmph, unlike a thief cat, a warlock keeps his promises.”

Hongwol appeared.

Hongwol looked down at Soya with a cold expression and could not hide his surprise when he saw the boy standing next to him.

“Cow, boy… Why here… … .”

“As expected, Hongwol. “It was you.”

Their gazes intersect.
