237 – Blood (2)
My whole body is hot as if on fire.
It is a completely different energy that is not even my mana element.
“You…What are you…!”
It also belongs to Gaia, the goddess of the earth.
I am in a situation where I am forced to take it as my own and turn it into a circuit.
What should have gone out and purified itself is being poured into me and I am treating it as if it were my own. Even if the goddess is angry, there will be no excuse.
“It’s an energy that shouldn’t be contained. It’s not human. Stop. The main woman will help you, so stop. Her body will burn.”
Still, I don’t care.
I have already used my power to purify the elements several times.
Even then, power was contained in the circuitry of the hand, albeit briefly.
Of course, it was possible because the hands were strengthened.
‘Hold on.’
In short, it is the act of putting the status of a god into a human body.
I had a gut feeling that I could endure.
It is not arrogance, it is objectivity.
This is my mana circuit that has already been strengthened by spinning the purest earth element.
From Noble mtl dot com
It will be able to withstand the energy of the goddess Gaia, the origin of the element.
Turn carefully, avoiding touching the circuit as much as possible.
Every time I touch it, it feels like my organs are burning, but I persevere.
The damage is greater when blood clots are not removed.
‘If you can’t get rid of it, you have to obey the cult leader.’
I have to obey the one I must defeat?
It is impossible.
“… Ugh.”
I swallow the moan that comes out of my mouth.
When transferring mana through the body, the most important thing is to maintain composure.
Otherwise, you will fall into a coin trap.
It will become like Black Angus, which turned into blood and destroyed the academy.
“……”
It is okay for your body to shake a little.
All you have to do is get your mind together.
Luckily, I have a title.
No matter how painful it is, you can endure it.
In this way, I direct the energy of the goddess to my Danjeon.
Near the blood clot.
It is like a huge monster.
Whether it is the power of God or something else, it is something that must be eaten by someone who points a knife at him.
Hyeolgo opens his mouth as if to devour the power.
— Procrastination
And then he flinches.
Despite its energy, it seemed like a living being.
I suddenly had that thought.
Could it be that the shale cult leader has the ability to shape energy into life?
It’s an unimportant thought.
I shook off my thoughts and thrust my power into Hyeolgo.
Does he even have senses?
The guy runs away as if startled.
The guy is knocking to escape into the danjeon.
“Keuuuity?)”
It feels like someone is hitting an organ inside the body with a hard fist.
But I endure it.
With the door to the temple tightly closed, I controlled the goddess’s energy without hesitation.
And then he stabbed it straight into the blood vessel.
— Coo!
Hyeolgo rams in as if to open the door to Danjeon.
The Danjeon rings as if it will break.
Blocks even more firmly.
Poke it in again at the same time.
— Coo!
“Wow!”
A handful of blood is vomited.
Maybe there are more.
I don’t know because I haven’t opened my eyes.
I can only guess that the blood girl’s breathing became rough for a moment.
I didn’t care.
Once again, the power of God was pierced.
Puuk.
Digging into something.
— Faaat!
The power swept through the blood chamber with tremendous force.
It seemed like he was going to swallow it according to his instinct.
— Keek!
What sounded like a faint sound was probably an auditory hallucination.
I felt a sense of expansion for a moment.
Papak!
I couldn’t hold it in and felt like I was going to explode.
It was blood pressure.
Any energy that seems to have a will soon loses it all.
The malice has disappeared and only the energy itself remains.
Suddenly, an idea occurred to me.
Hyeolgo was strong as if it could contain anything.
What would happen if its energy was coated on the mana circuit?
I released the authority and at the same time turned the mana circuit once.
“… Phew.”
I opened my eyes after completing what I had hoped for.
Big, bright red eyes are slowly blinking and staring at me.
It belongs to a blood woman.
She was looking at me half with concern and half with joy.
“You…You.”
Uncharacteristically, she stuttered.
As soon as she saw that my eyes were moving, all of her emotions seemed to be consumed by joy.
“You are truly… Brilliant.”
The voice was full of heat.
He must have realized that I had eliminated the blood pressure.
It was fortunate that I wasn’t angry about it.
If it falls into the cult leader’s ears for no reason, it’s okay.
Because it was certain that I would not be treated well.
“If you had just accepted it, it would have led you to a higher level. There is something special about when a blood vessel is curled up inside your body.”
“I have already reached a higher level.”
“… Sometimes there are unlucky moments.”
The blood woman pursed her lips.
The corners of her mouth immediately rose, but she spoke.
“Even that is precious.”
The way the blood girl treated me seemed like she was actually dealing with something precious.
During the time she spent here with her eyes open, she never once neglected me.
Honestly, it was unexpected.
When I fell, leaning against that wooden pillar, I thought I was going to die like this.
The treatment of Shaleam Bridge greatly exceeded expectations.
Even the religious leader circled around me.
‘Those who tried to kill me…’
Opinions are probably different even within Shaleam Bridge.
However, the attitude of the blood girl was special.
At first glance, you might be mistaken in thinking that you cherish it.
But if you think about it carefully, it’s definitely something they value as food.
Her attitude in front of the religious leader was clearly possessive.
“……”
It was good anyway.
I lowered my gaze to the table.
Learning one of these is a priority.
Gyoju Shaleam would also have learned martial arts based on these techniques, so it was also a clue to understanding him.
“If it were me, I would learn this.”
Sleep.
The thighs exposed through the gaps in the clothing were pure white.
Before she knew it, the blood woman approached her, sat down on her table, and opened her mouth.
She pointed to [Hyeomamaamsulgong], That is, a book that deals with the use of blood techniques.
“From various sword techniques using blood and memorization to all kinds of martial arts. The blooming of anything is infinitely beautiful. If you learn this, I look forward to what you will create.”
Ha—. The blood girl rested her chin on her hand and made an ecstatic expression while sighing harshly.
At this point, she was rather curious.
The three books of magic that all her Shale Church members long for lie before her.
How can you not be greedy?
“Are you not cooking it?”
“I can’t learn it.”
“… What?”
In response to my question, the blood girl combed her jet-black hair. Slurp. Her hair flowed as if she were flowing with water.
It contrasted nicely with her red lips.
“A true woman does not suck the dirty blood of others.”
They don’t suck blood?
This means that life force is not absorbed.
It goes against common sense.
Blood cultists are clearly all people who take the life force of others.
“… Then what?”
“Are you curious?”
The blood girl’s eyes widened mysteriously.
Her lips slid towards me.

“Move quickly, quickly!”
“Yes, manager!”
Lichten Academy.
Inadequate newspaper club.
There was a time when the last remaining member of this place was the manager.
But it is different now.
At first glance, there appear to be more than a dozen cadets moving around busily.
Among them was Brody, the newspaper department manager.
In her hand was a page of a pre-printed newspaper.
On one side, a person was printed in large print.
His identity is Ian Black Angus.
He is the person who contributed the most to the revival of the newspaper department through all kinds of activities and gossip.
His face appears in the newspaper once again.
However.
This time the direction was a little different.
“There is no need to record the personal information of the missing person in too much detail. Just list physical characteristics and a few activities! That way, word of mouth will spread quickly.”
“Yes!”
Busily moving members.
They were all doing their best to spread the news of Ian Black Angus’ disappearance.
It wasn’t because I thought this would be a hot topic or sell well.
‘I have to do this at least.’
Thanks to Ian, the newspaper department maintained its reputation and regained its former glory.
Manager Brody thought that this was the duty that must be done.
So, as soon as we heard the news that Ian was missing, we were moving quickly.
“We need to print as many copies as possible! We will distribute them not only to the Academy, but also to the city of Liechten! Please secure a print shop.”
“But, Manager! The printing fee…!”
“The student council has decided to support printing costs. This is what the vice-student council president said directly.”
“Yes!”
From what Brody heard, Ian went missing three days ago.
It was said that it was presumed that Hwalamgyo was the one who kidnapped him.
Then there is still no hope.
It usually takes about a week to absorb a person from Shaleam Bridge.
‘There may still be time left.’
The role she can play is to spread the word about Ian’s disappearance and to receive and sort out various reports.
I heard that more than that is being discussed by the student council, the church, and Laurent.
You need to be faithful to your current role.
“Manager! I think you should receive this call?”
“Why? Where?”
“Hey, this is Editor-in-Chief Schwab of the Empire Ilbo…! He has something to say about Mr. Ian.”
Jeguk Ilbo is the newspaper representing the empire.
The voice of a man who appeared to be no older than middle-aged was heard through the voice transmission device.
— Ian I heard that Black Angus is missing. If you have any relevant information, please share it. The information fee is well worth it…
“There is no need for an information fee. However, can you send out the article as soon as possible?”
— Of course. This is why I contacted you to do the same. I have a close relationship with Cadet Ian.
“… Ah, I understand.”
Ian Black Angus, how far does his network extend?
Anyway, you must find it.
The cadets of Lichten’s Student Council, Laurent University, and the Dessert Research Society were already moving with all their might.
“Let’s focus on the role I have to play.”
Muttering to himself, Brody rolled up his sleeves.
