Admission is a waste of time (53)
Lesson 12. Monster Wave – 3
Union Academy rode a hemispherical shield like an airship and ‘observed’ all thirteen battlefields where large-scale clashes between humans and monsters were taking place in the dimension Gelas.
Perhaps because Zeno had already finished explaining everything, the professors didn’t waste any time upon arriving at the battlefield and instead focused on clearing out the monsters using force.
“Everything will fall down!”
-Kwagagagagak
What was particularly impressive was the display of force by Ryu Cheol-myeong, a professor of Auror combat science.
Living up to his reputation as an unrivaled master of cold weapons at the academy, he wielded a large sword the size of a house with great skill, but what was truly surprising was the devastation caused by the pure magical power gathered at the tip of the sword – the Aura.
“Looking at that man’s swordsmanship, I can tell that he must be quite a man of great character. He has cleverly twisted the laws of the world to achieve his hegemony. I am infuriated, but with my current achievements, I have no way of dealing with him.”
This was Dokgo Yeon’s impression of Ryu Cheol-myeong slaughtering tens of thousands of monsters with the crimson aura he unleashed by swinging his greatsword.
However, Ban Yu-won tilted his head because he could only read the overwhelming power from the enormous energy emitted by his sword.
“You twisted it? It looks like you just pressed everything down as it was.”
“That’s why it doesn’t make sense. That man’s status doesn’t reach the ends of the heavens, so how can he suppress everything under the heavens? That’s a martial art that distorts reason and blinds the eyes of heaven.”
“Ugh… I don’t know.”
“It’s okay. You’ll be able to read it naturally soon.”
Most of the martial arts that Ban Yu-won is currently dealing with are those that pursue one meaning to the extreme, such as Gwan (貫) or Ban (反), so it was impossible to read another meaning hidden in Ryu Cheol-myeong’s martial arts.
If he could add another meaning to his dance, then he might be able to find out the true meaning behind Ryu Cheol-myeong’s actions.
“Hey, Ban. I heard you’re learning magic too. When you get stronger, you’ll be able to show miracles like Professor Yumi?”
Meanwhile, Light was mesmerized by Yumina’s might as she single-handedly swept away half of the battlefield.
She was using a terrifying magic that allowed her to grow thorny vines over a wide area, blocking the movements of hundreds of thousands of monsters, and then instantly absorbing their magical powers, drying them up and killing them.
Ban Yu-won could barely understand the concepts of what constitutes a plant and the concept of absorption, but he had no idea how they worked to produce such a terrifying result.
“It’s a long way from being able to produce that level of power, Light. Besides, Professor Yumina’s main magic is beyond the realm of training.”
“but…….”
I don’t know the plant magic that Yumina uses, but it must be a unique magic that originated from her birth.
It was not something that others could dare to learn, and in fact, the magic she taught was only what could be called common magic.
It’s the same reason why Ban Yu-won was able to deal with all languages and their concepts through the Babylonian code.
So, Ban Yu-won was more concerned about someone else than Yumi.
It was Campanella, a professor in the Department of Artifact Creation.
‘I was wondering what it would feel like to have an artificial artifact created by someone other than me.’
To conclude, Campanella’s artifacts were on a different level from those made by Ban Yu-won.
If Ban Yu-won were to add or combine linguistic concepts that only he can handle to existing objects or machines and recreate them (while others would be even more amazed by his ability).
Campanella studied natural artifacts that were said to have been given by the gods, and collected all the mysteries he could find to recreate them as closely as possible.
Since the starting points and goals are different, the results are bound to be different as well.
‘Strong. More so than natural artifacts that can be said to be the product of chance.’
You can tell because you are a semi-erect person who has already obtained natural artifacts.
Unlike natural artifacts whose birth is entirely dependent on chance, artificial artifacts created with the firm will of humans were at least more purposeful and efficient than natural artifacts.
Honestly, Ban Yoo-won was the one who made me consider majoring in artifact creation.
‘It’s well suited to handling my abilities.’
In any case, since the goal is to create a single object, wouldn’t there be a lot of room for Ban Yu-won, who can freely manipulate the power of linguistic concepts, to be active?
Even if it’s not your major, it might not be a bad idea to take her class.
Lucelle noticed that Ban Yu-won was watching Campanella and grabbed his sleeve tightly and asked.
“Youwon, that’s the kind of woman you like… …?”
“Don’t say that in front of others because it will be misunderstood. And it’s not my taste.”
If the power that Zeno displayed was so incomprehensible that it was hard to believe, the activities of the other eight professors, including Professor Jeong, were realistically close to an eerie powerlessness.
A level that is intuitive enough to be understood at a glance, yet makes you doubt whether you yourself can achieve such an overwhelming level.
Even the unlucky Cantone was in awe as he watched thousands of monsters being crushed simultaneously with his transcendental psychic powers!
-Moving to the next scene.
“Meteor!”
“Professor Jeong is using his full power to summon magic!”
“That’s great, Professor!”
The tour of the battlefield continued.
The professors ran wild and swept away millions of monsters, and the students watched them and exclaimed in admiration.
“Yeah, I survived.”
“I’m alive! Reinforcements have arrived!”
“Union, Union is us… … !”
“We survived… … Damn it, we survived!”
And the soldiers who had come out to the battlefield to give up their lives sat down and cried in joy when they saw them.
Even though there was only a barrier between us, I felt a terrible sense of alienation.
Ban Yu-won felt a little sick.
―That’s all for today’s group activity. Let’s all reflect on what we saw today and gain enlightenment for both body and mind.
The Union Academy members, who had conquered the large-scale battlefield in Dimension Gelas in less than half a day, once again teleported and returned to the Tolmon Empire capital square where they had first arrived via the dimensional line.
They must have already heard the news from each battlefield. Those who looked high-ranking at first glance rushed out barefoot to greet the group.
“I’ve been waiting for you!”
“Salute to the savior of the dimension!”
An attitude that seems like it would lick the professors’ shoes.
In fact, thanks to the faculty’s efforts today, the monster wave in Gelas was almost over, so their attitude was understandable.
I couldn’t understand why other students who hadn’t done anything yet were bragging on behalf of the professors.
“stop.”

Zenon raised one hand to stop the applause and cheers pouring down toward the group, then took a step forward and spoke alone.
“Is the accommodation ready?”
“I will take you all to a place where you can rest comfortably.”
“Okay, let’s sort by power!”
“yes!”
Even though most of the cities in the dimension were largely destroyed by the massive monster wave, the capital of the Empire of Tolmon was relatively unscathed, which is why the Union Academy decided to stay there.
What was given to them was a huge villa attached to the Tolmon Imperial Palace.
The floors were divided by grade, and then the districts were divided again by class. Thanks to Yumina’s influence, Class 11 was able to be assigned a fairly good district.
“This is someone who will help you during your stay.”
“i look forward to!”
Even the three guides followed them.
Ban Yu-won and Light have a beautiful woman who is dazzling, and Dokgo Yeon and Ruchel have a handsome man who is oozing s*xiness.
The guide attached to Yumina was relatively ordinary.
At this point, Ban Yu-won completely abandoned the idea that Yumi had any influence on the room assignments.
No matter how you look at these kids, they’re spies!
It was so cliche that it made me slap my forehead.
“If there’s anything you want, just let me know. I’ll help you in any way I can.”
“Haha, you are so kind.”
Ban Yu-won smiled awkwardly at the guide’s attitude of giving him overtly seductive glances.
He quickly exchanged glances with Dokgoyeon, trying to pretend not to know their true identities.
‘I see, this is where they’re going to start messing around.’
Although all the guides were wearing military uniforms, Ban Yu-won, who was able to read their internal concepts ‘a little bit’, realized that they were hiding their identities.
Even if they chased them away because their identities were suspicious, it would be the same as advertising that they had discovered the enemy’s plans, so for now, it was best to risk sleeping with the enemy.
-These authors are surprisingly strong. Tell Light to be on guard too.
Have you ever thought of something like that?
Ban Yu-won silently nodded his head at the telegram that came flying from Dokgo Yeon.
Then suddenly it occurred to him that maybe he could convey his feelings to her in a similar way.
The key is the magic he had recently begun to learn. Among them… … .
‘If it’s language magic, then maybe.’
Having mastered the magical language, Ban Yu-won was able to use his own unique magical way, language magic.
The essence was to draw out a magical language with a specific meaning, infuse it with magical power, and bring that meaning into reality.
This felt familiar to Ban Yu-won, because language magic was not much different from actually unleashing the power of linguistic concepts.
‘If there is a difference between the two… … if conceptual liberation applies only to the linguistic concepts that I possess, then linguistic magic is that I can artificially create and manifest specific linguistic concepts.’
The depth of the magical language that Ban Yu-won had acquired was as much as 100, so the amount was extremely vast and each word had a deep meaning, so it would not be an exaggeration to say that he could actually cause almost any phenomenon.
However, as with all magic, it is not truly omnipotent as it requires a huge amount of magical power to produce a great effect. In terms of efficiency alone, Concept Liberation is overwhelmingly better.
‘But if it’s just to the extent of transmitting sound.’
Since I saw Dokgo Yeon handle the sound, I had a rough idea of the principle.
The determined Ban Yu-won immediately moved the qi within his body and created two magical languages and stuck them together.
Then I realized that it was a simple matter to express my thoughts in words and convey them to others.
– These guides don’t seem to be from this dimension. They were probably prepared directly by Ortima.
– Have you been stealing sounds from me in the meantime?
Dokgo Yeon responded calmly without being surprised by the telegram that came from Ban Yu-won.
– No way. They’re just imitating it in a different way.
-You’re talented too.
– I’ll be happy to learn if you teach me formally. Anyway, for now, let’s both be careful of these guys.
―Ban Yu-won, you should be careful. If there’s anyone among you who would fall for the beauties’ trap, it’s you.
– You’re really going too far. You don’t believe me, who didn’t even glance at a beauty like you in front of me?
-How can you be so ridiculous?
The guides obviously didn’t notice that they were communicating without even looking at each other, but Ruchelman noticed it with his unique animalistic senses and his eyes lit up sharply.
“This is your room. Please feel free to stay until dinner is served.”
“If you need anything, please call me anytime.”
Fortunately, the group’s rooms were adjacent to each other.
It would have been much more unnatural if they had left it alone, but fortunately, it didn’t seem like they had any intention of causing a big commotion in the dorms.
“Well then, everyone, get some rest.”
“Yes, professor.”
Even as they entered the rooms assigned to them by their respective guides, the group acted calmly as if they knew nothing.
However, everything was in vain the moment Ban Yu-won and Light’s guide followed them into the room.
“No, why are you trying to follow me in?”
“I wanted to wait on you until you were ready to eat… … .”
The guide responded calmly, but slyly emphasized his chest so that only Ban Yu-won and Light could see it.
But of course, it had no effect on Light, and Ban Yu-won had no time to react.
Because.
“Kurrrrrr… … !”
“Hic?!”
Before he could react, Ruchel let out a loud, animal-like roar and grabbed the guide’s arm violently.
Ban Yu-won was shocked to see that the two emotions of anger and affection had surged within her body by more than 50 each, completing the 100-point path.
This was the first time her psyche had been activated so instantly and to such a high degree!
-bang!
Ruchel, who had dyed half her hair black, pushed her hard against the wall before the guide could even react, thrusting her head in and shouting in a low voice.
“To Yuwon, stop messing around… …!”
“Yes, yes! Sorry!”
At that moment, Ban Yu-won had a hallucination in which two pointed ears appeared to sprout from Lucelle’s head.
As Ruchel pushed him away strongly, the guide sat down with a dumbfounded expression, and an indescribable, awkward atmosphere came over him.
“Oh, the spring breeze is blowing. See you in the evening.”
It was really annoying that Yumina was calmly saying those words and closing her room.
Meanwhile, Ruchel, who quickly regained her senses, realized what she had done and hid behind Dokgoyeon in confusion. Dokgoyeon, who suddenly found himself acting as a shield, snorted in disbelief and picked Ruchel up with one hand and went into the room they had been assigned.
“… … .”
“… … .”
Then, the only ones left there were the three guides who had been abandoned, Light, and Ban Yu-won.
Ban Yu-won looked at his guide, who was trembling in fear from the wildness left behind by Ruchel, and at the other guides who were making indescribable expressions at her, and thought about what to say. In the end, he couldn’t say anything and dragged Light into the room and closed the door.
It’s all ruined.
* * *
After an extremely awkward amount of time, it was finally time for dinner.
Ban Yu-won, who arrived at the banquet hall under the guidance of the guide who returned without running away despite being trembling, realized that the students in other classes also had guides assigned to them almost one-on-one. After reading the internal concepts of some of those guides, he became serious.
Honestly, I didn’t want to read it.
“This place is really hard to get used to… … .”
“If I could please a human who belongs to a higher dimension like that, wouldn’t my life be over?”
Dokgoyeon sneered as if he had noticed what Ban Yuwon was reading and thinking.
“Think about it, I’m a student at Union Academy, which is considered the best in terms of potential in all dimensions. If I can sacrifice my body and connect even a little bit, there’s no reason for them to hesitate.”
“Grrrrr.”
Perhaps stimulated by Dokgo Yeon’s words, Ruchel, who was sticking close to Ban Yu-won, bared his teeth and looked around.
I heard that her growth was slow because she had been suppressing her wildness, but after coming to this special activity, I saw that her wildness had already increased by 5 or more.
“Eek.”
“… … !”
The female guide, who was under Ruchel’s fierce gaze, flinched and moved away from the half-circle to cling to Light, but unfortunately, there was no hope for that side.
But I decided to leave it alone for now because it was funny to see Light being burdened.
-Are you enjoying your meal?
Ban Yu-won’s appetite suddenly disappeared as Zeno’s voice simultaneously echoed in the minds of all the students.
―Let me briefly talk about the schedule starting tomorrow. Tomorrow, we will conduct a class activity where we will deal directly with monster waves under the guidance of professors. In the afternoon, we will have a group activity time to freely tour the capital of the Tolmon Empire.
“It wasn’t a retreat, it was a school trip.”
“Ban Yu-won, what is a school trip?”
“Yes, a trip where you get carried away by the atmosphere and come back with only a dark past.”
Why do people get unnecessarily excited when they travel?
And strangely enough, the stupid things I did back then remain in my memory for a long time.
I shouldn’t have done something like trying to seduce a foreign beauty just by relying on my language skills…
As I shook my head, recalling the memories of the school trip that made me call myself a Bansanova for the rest of the second semester of my second year, Dokgoyeon’s eyes lit up with interest.
“Oh, you seduced a woman.”
“Yeah, you have red hair and green eyes, you’re so pretty… … Was I talking out loud the whole time?”
“yes.”
When Ban Yu-won turned his head, unable to bear Dokgo Yeon’s smiling face, Ruchel, who happened to catch his eye, clenched his fist and spoke with a determined expression.
“I won’t lose either.”
To whom?
To the red-haired beauty?
“The more I hear about your world, the more interesting it becomes. When I first met you, I thought your level was not that bad, but your talent itself is extraordinary, and your travel technology has advanced enough to allow you to travel abroad freely, and you also handle things similar to machines that are handled at the highest level.”
“Come play later.”
“… … Me? In your world?”
Dokgo Yeon asks back as if she never imagined it.
Ban Yoo-won shrugged his shoulders and replied, thinking that since everyone in the Union gathers together, why can’t he bring his friends to Earth?
“If possible.”
“That’s a really interesting story. … … No, it’s not interesting.”
Dokgo Yeon laughed.
Although he pretended to be calm, there was a coldness to him that he couldn’t hide.
It was then that I began to think that maybe there was something going on with Dokgo Yeon as well.
Dokgo Yeon looked away from him and replied.
“I’ll pretend I didn’t hear that.”
“I will go, any time.”
“I will do my best,” said Ruchel firmly.
“I have to say hello too.”
To whom?
To our parents?!
“Everyone, love fights are good, but you have to remember the notice. Tomorrow morning is class activity, and afternoon is group activity. Did you all hear that?”
Yumina’s calm voice instantly broke the strange atmosphere that had been forming among the group.
Ban Yu-won quickly grabbed the rope she had given him and replied.
“Of course I remembered. Professor, you’ll be moving with me all day tomorrow, right?”
“Of course.”
Yumina answered with a bright smile.
Both Ban Yu-won, who asked, and Yumi, who answered, had a rough idea.
If I get any feedback it will probably be tomorrow.
It was also the afternoon, a time when it was easy to avoid other people’s eyes, and it was free activity time for each group.
‘They’ll try to take Yumina away from us somehow.’
I don’t know for sure, but the moment I lose her protection is when I become the most dangerous.
And that’s when the ‘plan’ begins.
Ban Yu-won squinted his eyes as he checked his inventory without anyone knowing.
I’ve prepared enough.
Now all we have to do is wait for the final battle.
“huh?”
… … For a moment, I felt something move inside my inventory, but I must have been mistaken.
There’s no way that such an obvious development, like something miraculously hatching from an egg and saving him at the moment he’s in danger, could happen in real life!
Ban,that called plot-armor,use it well.
