Became an Academy Self-Inflicted Blackmailer chapter 8

8 – Entrance Attempt (5)

As written in the description of the talent, the more I use my ability, the more I will have to accept the penalty.

‘Causal pain.’

It is a literal burning pain.

Is it because of the ability to handle the power of lightning?

In a way, it can be said that lightning also has the attribute of fire in a large frame.

Anyway, the penalty I had to bear was ‘pain’.

As expected, it probably won’t be taken lightly.

Why, isn’t there at least one character like that in every work?

The ability is obviously strong, no joke.

Depending on the work, it could even be included in the line of the strongest.

‘But now one screw is missing.’

Did they say that with great power comes great responsibility?

I don’t think it’s a word used at times like this, but it felt similar anyway.

He’s a damn strong character with damn strong power…….

The child is strangely useless. It doesn’t help. Why?

Because there is a penalty.

Well, that might not necessarily be painful. For example, the cost of using abilities is the consumption of life span.

In that respect, things might be a little better for me. Because it won’t cause permanent damage.

Casalgia is also called one of the most intense pains that humans can feel.

To be honest, I’ve never experienced it, so I can’t say anything. Does that hurt that much?

It was a thought that came to my mind as I reached out my hand toward the sky.

‘Hmm.’

I don’t know much about the character of ‘Dante’, but if there is one characteristic that I can vaguely know, it is high risk high return.

If Dante in the game also had the Oath of Thunder and the Curse at the same time, that was probably the intention of the developers themselves.

For example, it feels similar to a job group like a berserker.

When you think of a berserker, you probably think of a structure that gains great power at the cost of losing reason.

Dante was no different. Rather, I couldn’t think of a job group that could better describe Dante than berserker or berserker.

The only penalty was changed from ‘losing reason’ to ‘enduring pain’.

To be honest, I couldn’t figure out what the game companies were thinking when creating such a unique mechanism.

‘I guess you suddenly wanted to release a fun new job.’

Honestly, it was the intention of the game company and it was not my business. It’s already a yard that has been possessed, and if you don’t even have a chance to change jobs, you have no choice but to adapt.

Anyway, that’s what I’m trying to say. In order to handle this ‘Dante’, which has now become my body, it was important to understand the character’s abilities more than anything else.

‘A person with the ability to handle thunderbolts… ….’

The supernatural ability, a separate ability from magic or swordsmanship, has already been mentioned several times in the game.

Dante was actually the first to emerge as a playable character, but that doesn’t mean that there weren’t any characters who dealt with superpowers.

Usually, people with special abilities have special abilities, either in a good or bad sense.

For example, the astrologers of the East did.

‘Was his name probably Jibril?’

For someone from the East, he had a very western name, so I remember being quite impressed.

I frowned as I felt my fingertips begin to tingle in a different way.

A prophet or prophet.

There were several titles for her, but in the eyes of her players, she was the only ‘leading character’ in the game, a talented person.

She might one day come face to face with her entering her academy, but it wasn’t her immediate concern.

As far as I know, the only important thing is that Jibril, who has been blessed by the stars, will also bear a considerable burden when using her abilities.

Are all people with special abilities like that?

This is not an immediate problem. However, I could have guessed that it might be half the case.

Jibril suffers a temporary loss of sight as the price of her ability. But she doesn’t know, but that’s not all of the penalty.

According to the community’s prediction, the level of reward will also vary depending on the importance of the ‘future’ she wants to see…….

Likewise, it was not something I could confirm.

Should I say that I still feel a sense of kinship? It was as if his affinity for the astrologer girl, whom he had never seen before, suddenly increased.

‘Of course, it’s all the same that I haven’t seen the faces of the other main characters except for Tsumei right now… ….’

Her I felt pretty close to her just because I was possessed by this talented character.

Aren’t they born with the same kind of ability, but have to live with a similar type of penalty? A year later, when she entered the academy as her junior, it was the moment when she made up her mind to do well in her own way.

‘…… Well, that was after I safely entered the academy.’

I laughed and clasped my hands.

I open my eyes quite seriously and look at the cracks in the disconnected space.

If you can’t get out of this prison, it’s a failure to enter the academy.

In other words, something that has to be done.

Pajik-

At the same time, at the point where I made up my mind to live in this dizzy world, this is also the path I had to go through someday.

Making the ‘power of lightning’ my own.

That was a prerequisite that would never change.

Koo goong, koo goong…….

The air is twisted.

Despite the fact that it must have been a disconnected space, I was able to see the darkened sky for a moment.

And.

“──Thunderstorm.”

At that moment, the sky was colored with white flashes.

Quarrreung!!!!!

*****

Challang-

The red liquid inside the glass rotated once inside it.

Tsumei took a light sip of the wine that tumbled around and tumbled around and put it in her mouth.

“Hmm.”

The expression on his face looked somewhat uncomfortable, but it wasn’t because he was dissatisfied or had problems with the entrance ceremony that was going on right away.

She was just ashamed.

“…… I am crazy.”

Muttering in a calm voice, her complexion did not look very good. However, it was a look that could be said to be natural in a way.

When I thought of the image of arguing with my inner voice and talking nonsense to myself, I felt that my reddened face became even hotter.

How can you not be ashamed of yourself when your subordinates caught you?

It wouldn’t be strange if the gold dragon’s pride and honor urged her to commit suicide right away.

I have maintained a dignified appearance until now, but how did it fall like this?

Tsumei tapped the glass with a slightly downcast expression.

The fortunate thing is that Helena, who knows her true self to some extent, appears on the spot.

She tried to find comfort in that part, but Tsumei still let out a sigh that couldn’t be swallowed by her.

…… Anyway, Helena was in the middle of overseeing her entrance ceremony as her acting dean. She shouldn’t be bothered by the way her boss goes back and forth.

She hid her petite frame on the upper banister of the auditorium, until she could not see a single strand of her hair.

“…… We sincerely congratulate you on your admission to our academy, and we would like to introduce a special admissions student according to a long tradition. Students whose names are being called from now on, please come up to the podium. Aria Ten, Beatrice Lewis, Grisha Finnier…….”

Still, Tsumei sticks her head out because she still has to watch the entrance ceremony.

Three specially enrolled students are contained within her two thinly narrowed walls.

“…… Mmm.”

It was about that time that Tsumei let out her drool.

She slightly turns her gaze to the entrance of the auditorium, but she knows better than anyone that there is no possibility in the first place.

“Ha, what am I thinking… ….”

Shaking her head from side to side, she brushed off her vain thoughts. I won’t deny that I had the thought of ‘perhaps?’ For a moment, but the impossible is still impossible.

She creates a space of disconnection, she is herself, not anyone else.

Coming out of that space was not something she could pull off at the freshman level, no matter how good she thought it was.

How much more is that boy not a freshman at the academy, but a loser who was eliminated because he failed to prove his talent in Mana, her first test?

Tsumei reproached herself for having expectations that she didn’t expect for a moment.

“He was a powerless guy.”

I didn’t feel anything.

She was sure of that.

I don’t know who she is, but Tsumei looked at the boy quite seriously at the time.

It wasn’t that she simply saw it, it was that she contemplated the boy with the ‘dragon’s gaze’.

None of mana.

Her physical abilities were not at the level of being excellent even in empty words.

To get through that space and reach the main auditorium was a mission I was told not to succeed in the first place.

“… ….”

It will.

…… It must be so.

Tsumei slightly narrowed her brows and looked at the entrance of the auditorium once again.

Was that a hunch?

Or did she, with her dragon senses, realize that something unusual had happened to her in the ‘space’ she had created?

It was the same for Tsumei who didn’t know the correct answer.

She just glared at her entrance with a slightly more serious expression than before.

“…… We will end the entrance ceremony with the introduction of the three exceptionally admitted students. ….”

Tsumei couldn’t hear Helena’s voice as she stood on her podium and wanted to finish her entrance ceremony.

As if she was just possessed, as if she had a premonition of something in her.

“Wait a minute, Helena.”

She just raised her palm towards Helena.

Stop-

It was not a loud voice. It was a small voice that no one could hear.

But Helena immediately stopped her words and painted a puzzled expression.

‘Dean?’

The moment Helena involuntarily looked at the upper floors of the auditorium.

Boom!!!

The entrance to the main auditorium, the gate.

It was roughly opened by someone’s kicking.

“…… Under!”

Tsumei burst out laughing.

When everyone in the auditorium looked back in bewilderment, there was only one boy in her eyes.

Silver hair.

It was blue eyes.

I don’t know what happened in that short amount of time, but it was definitely that boy who appeared in tattered clothes.

The interesting little boy who was imprisoned (?) In the isolation space by himself, not by anyone else.

The corners of Tsumei’s mouth began to lift up.

“Heo Eok, Heo Eok… ….”

Is it a coincidence or inevitable?

Just as ‘Dante’ caught her breath and lifted her head, the first thing she looked at was also Tsumei.

For an instant, Tsumei’s eyes twinkled like those of a child.

How did he get out of that space?

I didn’t know.

What did he do, why did he appear as if he had been struck by lightning?

I didn’t know that either.

But at least for this moment, Tsumei purely wanted to burst into her admiration.

“…… It’s fun.”

She must be hiding something, she kind of guessed.

That’s right, isn’t it? Seeing her own face that was not widely known in her, I saw through her identity at once.

Information was another kind of ‘power’.

Tsumei was curious about the secret the boy was hiding.

It was also with that foot that she thought that she would keep him by her side and appoint him.

Apart from his personal crush, he was a boy enough to look into.

“You got through that?”

But, even so.

This was definitely an unexpected result.

Tsumei let out a laugh.

For some reason, it was a miscalculation that didn’t make me feel bad.

‘There was something more hidden, la.’

How much more so is it an ability that has been captured well enough to fool the dragon’s eyes.

If you’re not interested in it, that would be rather strange.

With a couple of claps, she hid herself over the railing again, avoiding the gaze that was staring at her.

It was a very natural avoidance.

“?!”

Dante’s eyes were stained with astonishment, but right now Tsumei didn’t know that.

“It’s a big deal.”

A strangely trembling voice.

No matter what anyone says, it was the training of the academy’s president, Tsumei, the gold dragon.

She didn’t have the confidence to handle it.

“…… Now, by what means do we have to make him a special case?”

As expected.

A picture is drawn.

How Helena and the staff at her academy will look at her when she makes that boy with no credentials her fourth exception.

A drop of cold sweat ran down Tsumei’s white cheek.

-If you can enter the auditorium by then, my sister will personally recognize you as the fourth exception.

Actually, she was the one who yelled at her like that, but she also thought that she would fail of course.

No, how could a guy who doesn’t know how to handle a handful of mana in common sense destroy the gold dragon’s disconnected space?

From noble mtl dot com

It literally makes no sense.

“Ahhh… ….”

Tsumei couldn’t help but panic.

It’s really a square beat.

It was like I fell for my trick.
