Episode 121. Grounded Faith (1)
As soon as the spell was cast, fog rose from the magic sword and enveloped the owner’s body.
A selfless energy that I have never encountered anywhere else in the world.
Xian, who manifested the magic sword, was no longer human.
I thought it would be more correct to view it as a demonic sword transformed into a human rather than a human.
His hands and feet were shaking, his breathing was getting harder, and his nerves felt like they were frozen, but for some reason, Boris’s face was full of joy.
He may seem like a crazy person, but he was completely engrossed in a thrill he had never felt before.
Living as if you could tear yourself apart at any moment, and the thrill that comes with it.
Sian Berth, who is he?
Who on earth is it that stimulates his desire for exploration so much?
I felt like my whole body was being taken over by the desire to explore the unknown inner world hidden in that black fog, and I was on the verge of going crazy.
– Taaat!
After completing the union with the demon sword, Xian finally sprinted towards Boris.
A speed so incredible that it cannot be considered human movement.
A normal human being would have just been helplessly decapitated.
But Boris could tell.
The owner of that magic sword would never kill himself easily.
The feeling of revenge clearly written in those eyes was proof of this.
I don’t know why, but it didn’t matter.
That’s something we need to look into carefully from now on.
Even if it means bringing out all of one’s magical power, even if it means bringing out the magic of the Bible that has not yet been cultivated,
I have to explore the existence of Sian Bert… … .
“Stop.”
For a moment I was excited by desire,
An inner voice stopped his emotions, which were boiling like a volcano.
“I’m leaving like this.”
Boris couldn’t believe his ears.
“What do you mean by that? The owner of the magic sword appeared before my eyes, but somehow… … .”
“This is not a vessel you can deal with.”
Boris could not continue speaking due to the firm yet stern voice.
Only in his eyes did the soul of the Supreme Bible suddenly appear, looking at the owner of the magic sword with an unpleasant gaze.
“Aer. You were hiding something much more dangerous than I thought… … .”
His voice was full of negative emotions, not interest.
* * *
He seemed to be shouting a spell, and then a magic circle was drawn beneath his feet.
I know what this is.
It’s an escape spell.
When are you going to use your tongue as if you’re going to do anything, and now you’re going to cast an escape spell?
I’m so shocked that I can’t even speak.
-Tung!
Just as I was about to cut off the arms collecting the mana, something thin and transparent blocked my path.
“It’s a shame. “I wanted to chat and enjoy it a bit more with student Xi’an, but unfortunately, I think we’ll have to part ways here.”
Break up? Who wants it?
Do you think I will let you go completely?
With you, who is no one else?
-Jeojeok
The mana barrier he had installed was starting to crack.
I was able to build a fairly strong wall in a short period of time, but it’s beyond me.
-Kwachang!
The moment the wall broke, I rushed at him again without any delay.
“Hey, marionette!”
The dolls, which were lying around like wet laundry, blocked my path as if they were guards.
It’s so similar that it’s almost laughable.
-Seogeeokeuk!
To prevent it from getting up and attacking again, I tore its limbs apart on the spot.
The dolls, which had been torn into dozens of pieces, crumbled into powder and disappeared without even retaining their shape.
“… … Uh, why the curse?”
curse? What curse?
Did I really want my body to be torn apart like those dolls?
That sounds like a no-brainer.
Such shallow curses don’t work on me.
-Phew!
Exactly one inch above the guy’s heart.
I finally gave him the first blade of revenge that I had been looking forward to since my previous life.
“Aaaah!”
He screamed at the wonderful encounter of the cool touch of the blade meeting his hot flesh.
It’s thrilling.
Have you ever felt this good while stabbing your sword thousands and tens of thousands of times?

An exhilarating pleasure that cannot be explained in words embraces my entire body.
[You’re late.]
A word from Keiram as he strikes the candle.
“Kikik… … .”
As if he had heard those words, he smiled meaningfully.
-Shooooong
Before I knew it, blue light radiated from the completed magic circle, and the guy’s body gradually began to fade.
The escape magic has been activated.
What you’re doing by activating the power of that proud god is nothing more than a fool’s errand?
“See you next time. Sian Bert… … .”
Was I being too faithful to my emotions?
I, who never missed the target, ended up missing the enemy from my previous life right before my eyes.
Oh, that’s annoying.
-Kwasik!
“Aaaah!”
The tightly packed Kayram was twisted mercilessly.
I still remember.
While the light of the holy sword pierced my heart, those damned looks you and that devil bastard were making!
A sneer that says you knew everything from the beginning and you were just completely taken advantage of!
But now things have changed.
I know the dirty intentions of you and that devil.
But you don’t know anything about me.
You will have no idea what they are thinking or what powers they have.
If you are a person with a thirst for exploration, you will want to know me so much.
So keep doubting and wondering!
By the time you have truly gained strength and realized who I am,
I would have already given you the worst gift of despair I could ever give you!
So, until then.
I hope you are cleaning your throat well.
“Ugh!”
Replacing the almost endless screams with a final greeting,
Boris eventually disappeared before my eyes.
* * *
I closed my eyes for a moment to cool down my boiling emotions.
I wondered if I should have installed a barrier first to prevent him from using magic, but I immediately shook my head, thinking it was a pointless thought.
[It’s a shame. It’s been a while since I thought I’d meet a decent guy… … .]
Kayram looked at me like that and let out a sigh of regret.
I was dumbfounded and asked the same question.
“Why didn’t you tell me?”
[what?]
“The owner of the Bible was here. “Wouldn’t you have known from the beginning?”
It makes no sense for a god’s weapon to not be able to recognize the same god’s weapon.
Even though Kayram clearly knew from the beginning, he never said anything.
She looked at the distant mountains and said, as if she didn’t feel like answering.
[If you worry about every single thing like that, you’ll only get tired? Haven’t you ever heard the saying, “Don’t worry about the past and just focus on what happened?”
Are you going to silence Eoyoung Buyoung?
Just by looking at that uncomfortable face, I could tell right away that there was a reason why I couldn’t say something.
I decided to think about this later,
I turned my head again to where the head of the family was.
The crew members who had taken refuge for a while quickly returned and were in the process of cleaning up the area.
The head of the family looked at me with his arms crossed, silently telling me to come closer.
I shrugged my shoulders and walked over.
“Would you like to speak first? Or should I speak first?”
Whatever it is, it’s a situation where there’s bound to be a lot to say to each other.
I was given the option to do whatever was convenient, but honestly, I still wasn’t sure what to say first.
“You have a lot of things you want to say, but you look like you don’t know where to start?”
The head of the household accurately captured my inner thoughts.
“Then I’ll ask first. “Are you able to do everything you need to do?”
“Yes, well, roughly… … .”
I answered, avoiding eye contact without realizing it.
“Didn’t you say about ten days? To be honest, I’m a bit disappointed that it came back sooner than I expected. I was just about to finish work when you came back… … .”
I don’t know if it was planned from the beginning or if it was accidental, but it seems like the head of the family really intended to kill Boris.
Otherwise, she would never have shown her bare face holding a sword.
“It just happened to be like that. “I feel like I need to come back quickly.”
I looked gently in Kayram’s direction, but she didn’t react.
“Whatever the reason, I don’t think I can just smile. “I expected him to be no mere scholar, but I never expected him to be a holder of the Bible.”
The ‘Black Fog of Greed’ summoned by the head of the family is a magic powerful enough to neutralize the magical power of a 9-star great sage at times.
I can guarantee that there would be less than five people on this continent who would survive being eaten by that fog.
If you ask me if that would work for the Master of the Bible,
Honestly, I don’t know.
Biblical Hiscrea.
Although I briefly disparaged it, calling it a disgusting piece of paper, I know better than anyone else the power of God’s weapon.
The power of God that allows us to overcome human limitations that have been established since the beginning.
It is unknown since when he possessed the Bible and how much he can handle and control its power, but considering the amount of magical power that was manifested from the light of the Bible at that time… … .
It might have been the head of the family, not Boris, who benefited.
The head of the family probably didn’t know that either.
But she didn’t hesitate.
He probably only had one single thought: to kill Boris.
If you ask why,
Of course it’s because of me.
“I hope you don’t look at me that way. Didn’t you tell me? I can’t see you being in danger. “The instructors say they will do their best to ensure students have a comfortable life at the academy, so there shouldn’t be any problems, right?”
It was always like that.
Yes, now, and in the future.
No matter what danger I face, she will continue her cleansing work for me.
As I know this very well,
I couldn’t laugh right now.
“Aren’t you going to ask any more questions?”
“What do you mean?”
“Anything.”
Boris’s reason for coming to the Academy was extremely consistent.
Finding the presence of fog that threatens light.
I don’t know where he started, but he had me under suspicion from the beginning.
It was something I should have solved entirely, but since my sister’s work was urgent right now, I had no choice but to postpone it.
Still, to prevent this, Brian and his group were temporarily evacuated somewhere else.
In the end, this happened entirely because of me.
There is a way to ask about this, and there is a way to interrogate it,
She never asks me anything.
“This is my first time seeing a student who forces questions with such crooked eyes. “What does our Xi’an student want me to ask?”
She took a step and slowly began to come towards me.
“Why do you have perfect power as a successor?”
“… … .”
“Or, how did you find the magic sword, the location of which not even Aer-sama knew?”
“… … .”
“Or why do you have such extreme hatred for your blood-related family?”
You already knew everything up to that point, right?
After all, he is the one who meticulously watches my existence from beginning to end, and he must have already completed all the preliminary research.
-chin
I thought we were talking about something serious, but she suddenly stroked my head.
“You told me this before, right? I won’t ask anything… … .”
“You mean nothing? “No matter what I do?”
The head of the family nodded without a second’s hesitation.
Knowing that there wasn’t even a speck of lies mixed in with those words made me feel very strange.
‘There is nothing more dangerous than ignorant trust.’
Why do the words of that idiot god suddenly come to mind here?
It doesn’t mean that the head of the family has ignorant trust in me.
Because I am the heir,
Based on that one absolute reason, she has a well-founded trust in me.
Yes, that’s right.
So wouldn’t it be a bad idea to add some basis to that trust?
I raised my head again and made eye contact with her.
“I have already lived one life.”
“… … ?”
The head of the family’s smile froze in an instant.
“I met the head of the family even in that one life.”
Interesting.
Have you ever seen the head of a family so embarrassed in your entire life?
I hope you don’t get angry.
