313 – Isn’t there anything like this in your country? – 1
A large-scale performance that tore the sky apart. Fortunately, the scars left in the sky were quickly erased.
The scars left by Kagan also disappear over time. If the scars were to remain permanently in the first place, the northern sky would have already changed like the demon realm. No matter how much human beings affect nature, nature is the law to recover itself.
In addition, Ma Jong-gong was among the spectators watching Sky Slash from the side. Sky Slash is a skill that uses mana after all, and if mana is grafted, it is an area that can be controlled by Majonggong. Thanks to this, the scars that should have disappeared on their own were sealed more quickly. I’m so glad Ma Jong-gong is at the academy.
“The trace itself disappeared in 5 minutes. Not many people see it—”
“Stop.”
I shut my mouth at the resolute prince’s words. As always, the teleport wizard kindly sent, and the escort knight who opened the door as soon as he arrived in front of the office. After going through a very simplified process, the prince who faced him was rubbing his forehead and cursing with his eyes.

So I immediately put my head in and solved my excuses. No matter how much the punishment stack is in the initialization state, there is nothing to be afraid of, but if you stretch out for nothing, you can eat probation in one shot as a shameful sin. That should be avoided
“Chief Inspector. You know that time is not important, don’t you?”
However, he inadvertently lowered his gaze when he said that he would not accept excuses.
Honestly, you’re right. The sky has already been torn, so what does it matter if it’s 5 seconds and 5 minutes? Whether the blade is lodged in the heart for five seconds or five minutes, there it is.
The prince, who closed my mouth like that, was silent for a while, then continued with a sigh.
“Fortunately, there were no major cities near the academy, so there was less confusion. Even in the area where the traces were observed, there was just something black, but I had no idea that the sky was split.”
This is also true. According to common sense, if you saw something black in the sky, you would say, ‘Oh, the sky is split.’ How many people would think that Something strange just appeared— I want to. It is difficult to conceive of the sky being torn apart unless you have personally seen the sword wielded.
“Furthermore, if the sky in the capital city turned black, it’s a bad omen, but if the sky in the academy changed, it could be thought that it was a simple magic or the aftermath of an experiment. It’s all the more so since there was a Demon Lord.”
The place where abnormal symptoms were even seen was the academy, and it was also the place where Majonggong, the pinnacle of magic, was located. As the prince said, there is a possibility that the wizards will be dismissed as having done something strange.
‘…Isn’t it a big deal?’
And after hearing the prince’s words, hope raised its head. I hope that this will go beyond a reasonable amount of admonition.
It’s true that I tore the sky, but other people don’t think so either. It’s not a madman’s eccentricity, but a mage’s daily mistake. Of course, leaving black traces in the sky is not simply an accident, but at least it is natural to think that it is the aftermath of magic rather than the conclusion that it was cut by a sword.
In other words, a strange situation where a crime has occurred but there are no victims and no witnesses.
‘I lived.’
If there is no victim, admonishment, the maximum is no end─
“But not everyone thinks so.”
Ah.
With the rapid drift, the sense of hope rapidly bowed its head.
“Reports have been uploaded non-stop since yesterday. Remnants of the Reverse Heaven have appeared, the specter of Gaar has returned, and all sorts of heinous things have been said.”
After saying that, the prince sighed again and handed me a pile of documents. Judging by the strength in his hands, he seemed to be desperately holding back what he was about to throw.
When I received and checked the pile of papers before throwing them out, a sentence that felt urgency and confusion came into my eyes without filtering.
[ Observation of traces of extinction in the sky above the academy. ]
[There are only a handful of people who can imitate annihilation, both in the imperial army and in the nomadic forces. Among them, only the Inspector General and Udesr Dorgon are still alive. ]
[There is a possibility that Udes Le Dorgon, who is on the run, taught his nomads to perish and infiltrated the empire. ]
A report full of negative speculation, as if a seizure button had been pressed. It’s full of cerebral fissures rather than an explanation of the situation, can this be considered a report?
Anyway, I instinctively closed my eyes to the contents of the Apocalypse. Come to think of it, more than one commander and soldier participated in the Great Subjugation War. If even one of them was near the academy or in a nearby territory under any pretext, such as promotion, transfer of troops, or discharge, he would have noticed it right away. Because those who have seen Myolse even once cannot forget it until they die.
No, it’s more strange than that. The report also says that the director of the inspection department can imitate annihilation, so why don’t you think I did it? Isn’t it more likely that I did it than that Dorgon infiltrated the spy?
[ The military provocation at the Imperial Academy, the highest educational institution in the Empire, where children of nobles gathered, was an obvious challenge to Heaven’s mandate. ]
[ In a situation where key figures from other countries are also enrolled, the probability that the head of the inspection department will cause a commotion in the academy is low, so Udesr Dorgon’s— ]
I read the contents again in a puzzled mind, and then I closed my eyes again. There is no right word to say.
Who would have imagined that a bastard who should protect the academy by common sense would blow away Kagan’s technique in the middle of the academy.
“What do you think?”
The words of the calm prince are as if ‘I will kill you.’ It sounded like
‘f*ck.’
I can’t even ask you to take a look at it because it’s crazy even if I think about it.
***
As expected, the head of the inspection department is a loyal subject.
Isn’t such a large-scale incident happening because I’m worried that I might get tired from work and feel bored with the repetitive daily life? Every time he receives a surprise gift from the inspector general, his fatigue and boredom go away, so there is no loyalist like him. There are no two of them in the world, and if there are two of them, they will never be loyal.
‘…Will things change when I get older?’
Reports came screaming from the southern part of the Empire. The Inspector General, who read the gruesome reality himself, was like a criminal—no, he was a criminal. In any case, he bowed his head in the form of a criminal.
It’s an ugly look. Since the head of the inspection department is a god he cannot bear to throw away, he has to carry it with him whether he gives a surprise gift or a terrible gift, but I hope he will take care of himself when he is in his 40s and 50s. Even then, I don’t think I’ll be able to endure it if I burst into such an accident. I don’t want to become an emperor who collapsed from high blood pressure.
“What do you think?”
“I have caused great sorrow to Your Highness because of my carelessness, so what can I say?”
I get more pissed off. If you come out shamelessly, you will be punished, including offense, but if you know that you have an accident, you will immediately lower your head and become more angry. Anyway, I only learned a strange way of life.
Still, the director of the inspection department is thoroughly bowing down, so the plan can go ahead without a hitch.
“According to the report from the commander of the Southern District Army, the wizards were all shocked. It seems that they immediately noticed that it was not the result of magic as much as they were wizards.”
At those words, the head of the inspection department lowered his head even more.
“Then it goes without saying to the wizards in the academy. If you tell your family or country what happened yesterday——it will quickly spread throughout the continent.”
“Because your beliefs are careless…”
“It’s cowardly to settle actions into words, isn’t it?”
“…Yes, Your Highness. You are right.”
After hesitating for a moment, the inspector general finally uttered the words as if vomiting his own blood.
That’s it. With this, the inspector general has no choice but to accept whatever results come out.
“The imperial family is going to make an official announcement about this situation. The sword attack of the inspector general split the sky, and this can be proven by Lord Majong.”
The imperial family will choose to spread rather than settle. If it’s something that can’t be hidden anyway, if it’s something that doesn’t need to be hidden in the first place, it’s better to announce it in the name of the imperial family. If so, this incident would not be an accidental action by the head of the inspection department, but an incident involving the directives and involvement of the imperial family.
The director of the Inspection Department must have reached that point as well, and his dark expression began to brighten.
“Isn’t the Inspection Director personally showing the tip of his sword for the sake of the academy students who are working hard?
“That’s too much praise, Your Highness.”
I just nodded my head at the quick reply of the inspection manager.
I have nothing more to say. I was still mentally tired from speaking at length, and even if I said this much, the inspector general was someone I could understand.
‘Now it’s the knights’ turn.’
The empire gained tangible and intangible benefits as Jong-Gong Ma became a dispatched instructor at the academy. The wizards gathered to see the wizard who had reached the end of magic and to hear even a single passage of his teachings. And for smooth entry and activities, the request for admission and the price appropriate for it.
When Prince Majong first decided to go to the academy, he laughed in vain, but when he started residing at the academy, only positive things happened. After seeing this sweet taste, it is only natural to find other ways to use it.
Amidst all this, the head of the inspection department, who resides at the academy, displayed a splendid appearance with a sword. Although he is at the level of mimicking the skill of the reverse heavenr and can use the son of the reverse heavenr, other people don’t know that.
‘Is it a sword after a horse?’
A warrior who has reached the point of cutting through the sky with a sword. If this rumor spreads, there will be an uproar comparable to that of King Majong.
‘I’m looking forward to it.’
At the time of King Majong, the Ernesto Academy of the United Kingdom of Juven bowed its head. Those who were proud of being a sorcery powerhouse surrendered to the Empire. If so, wouldn’t it be the turn of Armin, the kingdom of knights, to submit?
Armaine should get on his knees whenever the opportunity presents itself. A country bordering the Empire and a powerful country succeeding the Empire. Besides, it was a kingdom of knights, so how proud they were.
But now Armin’s pride is over. Kingdom of knights? So, in Armain, is there a warrior who can cut the sky? Compared to the magical world, where there is an overwhelming number one, the ranks of warriors were complicated, but not anymore. At least on the surface, the head of the inspection department is number one.
***
I lived.
When the crown prince brought out the report, he was prepared for at least probation and at worst more than that, but fortunately it ended without any punishment.
“Isn’t the inspector personally showing the tip of the sword for the devoted academy students?”
In the meantime, there were words that forced me to do extra work, but that’s okay. It’s better to just be a nuisance than probation or detention.
Besides, I don’t have to play the role of an enthusiastic teacher, just like Ma Jong-gong gives instructions at his convenience. Unlike Ma Jong-gong, which was crowded with people because it coincided with the school season in the first place, I am in the middle of the semester, so there will not be outsiders from the mainland suddenly asking for lessons.
‘…I’m glad I cut the sky.’
If the academy was ambiguous and not the sky, it would have ended with punishment.
As expected, if you’re going to do something crazy, it’s right to do it in earnest. Not something to do twice.
