Became a Third-Rate Villain in the Hero Academy chapter 252

252 – Ghost Song (2)

Maximin looked at Theo, who had pulled out ‘it’ with his mouth open.

A variety of emotions were mixed within Mak Si-min’s wide eyes.

‘I was able to pull out something that I had personally sealed with a magic chain given to me by the Pope…’

The first one was surprising.

‘This is an item that can bind even a mid-level demon… Are you saying my sealing ability was this bad? Did retirement… Actually increase my career? ‘I wouldn’t have been able to survive with these skills.’

Secondly, despair.

‘Still, I’m glad that the person chosen was Theo.’

Thirdly, relief.

‘But is it okay to hold that thing for that long? It must be very mentally painful.’

Lastly, I was worried.

Mak Si-min also once used ‘that’.

When I was in contact with ‘that’, I heard a strange voice that kept strangely interrupted.

─Beat… Spill it… Stab it… Hold it… Back…

It was an experience of electricity flowing through the blood vessels of my entire body.

I instinctively felt that if I kept holding it, something big would happen, so I avoided making any contact. The maximum contact time at one time was 3 minutes.

However, it seemed like Theo had been in contact with ‘it’ for well over 3 minutes at best.

He did not move at all, but stayed where he was standing…

Mak Simin’s eyes trembled.

‘Could it be that I lost my mind while standing…!’

Maximin hurriedly ran to Theo.

“Theo! “Are you okay?”

“Yes, it’s okay.”

Theo answered calmly. It was the same as the first time.

Mak Si-min asked questions one after another.

“Isn’t it mentally painful? “I keep hearing strange noises.”

Theo lifted ‘it’ and glared at it.

“That may be a bit much to say. Rather than being distressed, I feel more frantic. “It’s worth holding on.”

“Is that so…”

Maximin closed his mouth.

‘Is Theo really chosen by ‘that’?’

The longest recorded time of contact with ‘that’ at once within Rue de Chalon is 3 minutes. It was a record set by Mak Si-min himself. He tried to hold on a little longer, but he felt like his mind was breaking and he had no choice but to give up.

However, Theo is still holding ‘that’ without changing his expression.

No matter how good your mental power is, it is an impossible performance.

At that time, I remember what Theo said.

─’That’ wants me now. He said he doesn’t care about the chains that bind him.

“······.”

Is this really true?

A person who is not even a member of the Chalon family is chosen by the family’s god.

Anyway, what Theo did today is something that will change the landscape of the continent. That’s still something.

Maximin looked at the boy who was still holding ‘it’ casually, and then opened his mouth.

“Many geniuses of the Chalon family, including me, tried to be chosen by it, but you are the only one who was truly chosen by it. “I will ask you to take care of the future of the continent, Mr. Theo.”

If the previous heads of the Chalon family had heard, they would have opened the coffin lid and come out.

The words to ask for the future of the continent also included the meaning of ‘please take care of the House of Chalon’.

Whether he knew what that meant or not, the boy nodded with a calm demeanor.

“I will try my best.”

I returned to the room.

─Theo, are you there? We came…

─Hey, what did you talk about with your father? It took me this long to find out what there was to see in that treasure trove.

Aids and P.L. Came to the room, but were sent away.

That’s because there was something more important than that.

At that time, the [Demon Sword] Worn at the waist chanted.

─Hiyaaa… I feel relieved inside. It’s so nice to be somewhere else after being stuck there for more than a few years.

I thought to myself, ‘I’m crazy, so please be quiet, Demon Sword.’ When in contact, my thoughts are immediately transmitted to [Demon Sword].

Immediately, an answer came back from [Demon Sword].

─Hey. Why are you so careless? Don’t you feel the stuffiness and loneliness of being locked in a room without even a mouse for several years? Tsk tsk… Why don’t you try to understand other people’s minds half as well? And please don’t call me by the unpleasant name [Demon Sword]. My name is Ney.

The [Demon Sword] That shot at me in such a long sentence… No. Ney once again started praising the world by saying things like, ‘I’m so glad you came out.’

I took off the [Demon Sword] From my belt for a moment and gathered my thoughts.

‘In your words, you said that the voices of those who had used you so far were all strangely cut off and grotesque.’

But it didn’t sound like that at all to me. It was completely incomprehensible why Mak Simin was worried about mental contamination. On the contrary, he was so chatty that I almost wished he would keep his mouth shut.

Conversely, the user said that Ney’s voice was strangely interrupted and sounded strange. This is the truth that was confirmed in this work and also confirmed by Mak Si-min.

However, I can now communicate normally with Ney.

‘In that case…’

The cause is most likely due to my body.

‘For what reason?’

To check the current situation, I opened the status window.

The first thing that catches your eye is the characteristics.

Characteristics

-Hero’s Descendants (Permanent Effect/Blooded Ability)

-Twisted Dignity of Nobility (Permanent Effect)

– Nullify magic (use effect)

-Observer’s Eye (Permanent Effect)

-Weapon Expert (Permanent Effect)

-Sword Expert (Passive effect)

There was no specific characteristic that seemed to be the cause of the current situation.

At least [Descendants of the Hero] And [Twisted Dignity of Nobility]. Two characteristics were questionable.

First of all, they are not [Descendants of Heroes].

This trait is inherited from blood to blood, inherited by the descendants of people who have been in the warrior business since before Ryuk appeared about 200 years ago.

However, even though the protagonist of this work, Neike, also has this characteristic, he was unable to communicate with Ney, so this characteristic is not the cause.

‘Then is it because of [Twisted Noble Dignity]?’

Ney has a young voice, but his speaking style is old-fashioned. In modern times, it is an old-fashioned way of speaking that not even today’s or tomorrow’s grandmother would use.

When asked about his identity, he said he did not remember… There is a high probability that Nei was of noble lineage before he was trapped within the [Demon Sword].

And the twisted nobleman in me, Theo, may think that she is not noble enough for not hearing her voice.

‘······It’s too far-fetched.’

I clicked my tongue and erased the hypothesis from my mind.

‘Let’s just focus on the present.’

Even if it meant suffering from mental contamination, it was something I tried to take.

Since permission from the original owner, Maximin, has been granted, all I have to do is make the most of [Demon Sword].

I opened my mouth.

“Hey sir. As you can tell, I have to get stronger quickly. “I’d like to hear your advice.”

Ney, who was still praising the world without stopping, answered.

─If you don’t choose any means, there are many ways to become strong. There are too many to count. But I have seen too many miserable stories of those who have become strong in that way. I don’t remember exactly when, but I remember a colleague who turned his back on the entire continent like that. He was a knight belonging to the imperial family who was the same age as me…

Ney again tried to press the start switch of the motor attached to his mouth (although I doubt he was there).

I immediately cut her off.

“······As long as you are still alive after a maximum of three and a half years. Other than that, it doesn’t matter what price you pay. “If only I could become stronger in a short period of time.”

─Hmm. In that case, I think we should first take a good look at your current skills. It seems like you can’t use magic, so try martial arts and swordsmanship first.

How did you know I had no mana?

“How did you know that I had no mana?”

─If you pretend, you pretend. I felt it right away the moment you held me. Plus, I knew what kind of blood you were. Child, you are a descendant of a warrior.

“······That’s right. “It is the blood of the Balderk family.”

─Oh my. Balderk… It sounds like a name you’ve heard before. Ah… It seems like the memories are finally coming back, albeit slowly. First, try your hand at holding me and using your sword. Ah, it would be better if the shape was similar to the sword you usually use.

At the same time as those words were said, the form of the [Demon Sword] Changed.

The changed form was the same as the [Elemental Sword], Including the thickness, length, and weight of the sword body.

‘Is this a mythical artifact?’

I immediately grabbed the [Demon Sword] And started swinging it.

At the tip of the sword, all the sword techniques I had seen with my own eyes and learned with my body were displayed.

“······Hu.”

For about 10 minutes, my body was soaked with sweat as I swung the sword with extreme concentration.

‘This was great.’

A feeling of fullness arose in my heart.

“It’s over, Nei.”

However,

─To be honest, it’s very poor. At that level, you can’t even kill a single low-level demon.

Ney’s evaluation was harsh.
