I blinked at the status window that appeared in front of me.
◆ Name: Kyler Diablick
◆ Age: 18
◆ Stats: Strength (457) Agility (470) Magi (512) Endurance (465) Dignity (94)
◆ Skills: Diablic Force (S) LV 5, Magic Barrier (A)
A very simple status window.
But the content was all too familiar to me.
“uh… .”
If you rub your eyes and look again, you can still see the status window.
Then it is not that I am seeing an illusion.
‘this… Why does it float here?’
If this is the Earth, of course there is a status window.
Also, if I were human, it would be normal to have a status window.
But now this place is not Earth, and I am not a human being.
‘Is there a status window in the Pandemonium?’
However, there was no mention of the status bar in Kyler Diablick’s diary.
If so, it should be assumed that there is no status window in this demon realm.
Of course, it could be that he just didn’t mention it.
I asked while looking at Jetty next to me.
“that… Do you have a status window?”
“uh? What do you mean?”
Jetty asks back with an expression that she doesn’t know why.
Looking at the reaction, it seems that you don’t know anything about the status window.
In case you didn’t know, I decided to ask more precisely.
“You mean there is no status window in the Demon Realm?”
“that… I’m sorry, but I’m not sure what you mean.”
“Well… not.”
It is certainly.
There is no status window in this demon realm.
then.
‘What the hell is this?’
The hologram that appeared before my eyes was the status window I had checked and seen countless times during my Hunter days.
Their stats and skills were completely different from the original me, but the basic framework was obviously the same.
‘Could it be that they were possessed and mixed?’
This is the most persuasive assumption in the current situation.
The body is Kyler Diablik, but the mind is Kang In-hyeok, an S-class hunter, so a hybrid called a demon with a status window was created.
‘No matter how you look at it, this is the only one.’
It doesn’t make sense, but it doesn’t make sense from the situation I’m in right now in the first place.
It’s easy if you just think of it like that.
But there was another part that was hard to get over.
‘Why are my abilities like this?’
There are 5 stats displayed on the status window.
When I was Kang In-hyeok, the stats I had were strength, agility, magical power, and durability.
And this was the same for all Hunters.
But now my ability is a state of majesty, an unheard-of ability that has been added.
In addition, magic power was changed to an ability called Magi.
Most surprising of all was the number of abilities.
‘Similar to me in the days of an S-class hunter?’
The ability level that is the standard for S-class hunters is over 400.
And now my stats are similar to or slightly inferior to those of my Hunter days.
Among the 100 or so S-class hunters, I was a little above the middle level.
I was 28 at the time.
However, at the age of 18, it is said that he already has abilities that exceed the average of S-class hunters.
‘If this was the Earth, there would be an uproar.’
That’s an unbelievable number.
As far as I know, even those who are called the strongest S-class hunters had 300 units when they were in their teens.
But it’s 400.
In addition, if Magi’s ability is similar to magic, it can be said to be higher than that of the Hunter days.
‘As expected, the lineage of the Great Demon King is different. Or are there just as many strong people as that?’
It was expected that this place called Demon World had far more strong people than the hunters on Earth.
The next thing to look at was skill.
In the days of S-class hunters, there were many skill windows, but now there are only two.
The problem is that both of them are new skills.
Of course, one of them was an S-class skill and the other one was an A-class, so it’s true that they are sufficiently excellent skills.
‘By the way, did the skill originally have a level?’
The level indicator next to the skill called Diablic Force.
That clearly indicated the level of skill.
And as far as I know, I’ve never heard of skills having levels.
‘Is that skill a special case?’
The A-class skill next to it didn’t have a level indicator, so it could be that only Diablic Force has a level.
I checked the explanation of Diablic Force.
＜Dablic Force＞
The evil force of Diablo, the great demon king who rules the northern part of the Demon Realm.
It is an evil force that is transmitted only to his blood relatives and shows the highest efficiency in building demonic energy.
Its destructive power is also one of the strongest Evil Forces in the Devil World.
The proficiency is divided into a total of 10 levels, and the skill can evolve after reaching the 10th level.
‘This must have been the Evil Force.’
This was the Evil Force written in Kyler’s diary.
Listening to the explanation, it seemed like a concept similar to the inner core method or the mana practice method in the novel.
The only difference is that the Evil Force builds up demonic energy.
And it seems that there are several types of Evil Force.
One of the outstanding evil forces Jetty said was the diablic force.
‘How can I use this… yes?’
The moment you want to check your skills in more detail.
“there… it’s okay?”
Jetty’s voice came from the side.
“yes? Oh, I had something to think about.”
From Jetty’s point of view, it would have seemed like I was staring blankly into space.
On Earth, you wouldn’t see people checking status windows as weird, but it might look weird enough here.
“Oh, I see. Kyler, did you learn the Evil Force separately?”
“Well… I learned.”
“Also! I think Diablo-sama’s evil force would be amazing.”
An embarrassingly bright eye.
Of course, it is true that Diablic Force is great.
It’s listed in the description, and if it’s only connected to the Great Demon King and his blood relatives, it’ll be counted as one of the rarest.
‘But is it something to be envious of?’
From my point of view, who didn’t know exactly about the Evil Force yet, I couldn’t understand Jetty’s reaction.
However, I immediately nodded my head at the words that followed.
“I didn’t learn the Evil Force. I had no connections and no talent to teach me, so there was no opportunity.”
They talk with a smile on their face, but the sad feelings are still conveyed.
Of course, the question arises first.
‘Can Slime learn Evil Force?’
I don’t know the exact principle, but if you think it’s a kind of practice, it seems that only humanoids or similar beings can learn it.
But listening to Jetty, it didn’t seem like that.
I looked at Jetty once again.
‘Well… cute. Oh, not this.’
No matter how you look at it, it has no body organs to store and utilize mana or anything like that.
Even if you can build it inside your body, what’s the use if you don’t have hands or feet to extract it?
‘Could it be a torso bump? Or something like a breath.’
Whatever it is, there is a way to use it, so I would say that, but I was very curious about the way.
“Then you will learn the Evil Force taught at the academy?”
“Maybe it is? Even with water, the grade is different depending on the talent.”
A look of regret appeared on Jetty’s face.
He probably thinks that he won’t be able to learn good evil force because of the fact that his talent is not very good.
‘Hmm… Is there any way I can help?’
It is impossible to tell the Diablic Force.
It is said that it is passed on only to Diablo and his blood relatives, so it can cause problems to inform others.
It’s not even a situation to tell.
‘Then what about the other Evil Forces?’
There seemed to be a lot of types of Evil Force, and it might be possible to tell Zetty about a moderately high level of Evil Force.
Considering his status as the son of the Great Demon King, it wouldn’t be difficult to find an evil force with excellent performance.
‘I’ll have to ask Sebastian later.’
There was no need to give people anticipation by talking first, so I decided to just move on.
“If you work hard, there will be good results.”
“thank you. I will try hard.”
As I and Jetty chatted casually, I could feel the people around me trying to approach me.
But their attempts are blocked by a sudden noise.
kiik-
All eyes turned to the source of the sound.
it’s the same for me too
?
What else is that?
* * *
It’s bizarre.
It was a short time since I came to this place called the Demon World, but I saw a lot of strange and unusual beings.
But right now, that being is the most unusual of all.
First of all, the face is a skeleton.
Yeah, the skull isn’t all that unusual.
However, it is very unusual that the skeleton is sitting now.
‘That’s… bathchair?’
As far as I know, there are no words to describe it other than a wheelchair.
In other words, should it be called a chair with wheels?
that’s what it means
Now the wheels of the wheelchair were blazing with black flames.
Yes, let’s say that’s the case here.
The problem was the state of the skeleton.
‘Isn’t it hot? No, doesn’t it melt?’
A normal skeleton should be made of bone.
They are classified into various monsters depending on the strength of their bones or their weapons, but I have never seen them composed of elements other than bones.
But now, the body of the skeleton in front of me is made of ice.
A skeleton with a burning wheelchair and a body made of ice.
The skeleton, which has two things that don’t match at the same time, slowly heads towards the center of the classroom.
Naturally, the students’ eyes also moved along the skull.
“Hmm… Are you the black yeomban of this jockey that I will be in charge of?”
The pattern of black flames in front of the classroom must have been a symbol of class.
‘If it’s a black flame, will a black flame dragon come out?’
While I was thinking such silly thoughts, someone called my name.
“Is Kylers Diablick here?”
The existence that called my name was the skeleton.
I answered as confidently as I could, and yet politely.
“I am Kyler Diablick.”
“Well… great. It’s just what I heard.”
I don’t know what I was told, but I know for sure that skeleton knows me.
‘Because he’s so famous.’
Aside from being the son of the Great Demon King, he had such an accident at the entrance ceremony, so it seems that at least the person in the academy would not know about it.
The skeleton took its gaze away from me and looked around.
“Let me introduce myself. Some of you may already know, but I am Cedric, the Demonic Professor. And I’m the homeroom teacher who will be in charge of you guys for a year.”
As expected, Cedric was a professor.
In the first place, the atmosphere itself was different from being a student.
“My specialty is magic, but considering the low level of you guys, I can match other fields to some extent. So, all you have to do is sharpen your skills in the field you are most confident in.”
Although it is a demon academy, the basic framework of professors teaching students and students developing according to the teachings seems to be the same.
‘He’s finer than I thought.’
However… that was my mistake
“Then let me tell you about the training process. You just have to train yourself, realize yourself, and grow by yourself.”
?
what is that again?
I guess I wasn’t the only one who questioned that absurd statement.
“Does that mean there is no teaching from the professors?”
Cedric clicked his chin at the question of one of the students who seemed to be demons.
“Of course. We only confirm your achievements, we do not teach anything.”
buzz buzz.
The classroom becomes noisy again.
Because it was an absurd thing to say.
If they don’t teach, why are there substitute instructors and why is there a place called the academy?
“I… Then what do professors do specifically?”
“Didn’t we say we were confirming your achievements? Whether you guys can go to the next level, or stay or get expelled, you decide by sparring with us.”
So, it is a story that you have to become strong on your own and produce satisfactory results against professors.
‘What, this crazy academy… .’
And more shocking words flow from Cedric’s mouth, which embarrassed the students.
“Okay then, let’s fight each other from now on.”
crazy… .
excuse me? Is this a real academy?
