I Became a Demon Professor at the Academy chapter 124

124 – Regita – 6

“You don’t have to try to break the barrier and kill me. Because even if I die, the explosion will happen. It’s designed that way.”

“I’m trying to save it.”

“…Save them?”

Ruin was embarrassed for a moment.

In the first place, she didn’t calculate that she would survive. Therefore, in order for Ruin to survive in this position, she needs to do very inefficient things.

Inefficient work here means, of course, that it requires a lot of knowledge and mana resources to the point of ignorance.

“Yes. To save.”

However, Jekiel had no hesitation. He doesn’t even experience fear.

I just think it’s the right thing to do. There is a belief that Ruin will also be influenced and help her main characters. It’s just like this.

“You are a guy who can live happily ever after.”

“Happiness, happiness?”

She laughed as if Ruin was dumbfounded. She was so dumbfounded that tiny water droplets formed in her eyes.

“Happiness… It’s called happiness. I’ve never been happy in my life. You speak so easily.”

“I’m not saying that easily.”

While muttering that, I put my heart and soul into disabling the barrier.

It was literally devouring an ignorant amount of life force, but the barrier that consumed that much life force was wonderfully released.

Patching within! The barrier is released with a sound.

Because the barrier itself was a living organism composed of ‘life force’, it scattered life force in all directions as it shattered. Re-absorption was not difficult.

We now looked at each other without a screen separating our two sides.

“……”

She was a Ruin who felt a bit embarrassed that the barrier was lifted, but she didn’t lose her composure.

It doesn’t matter. Anyway, the curse of this explosion is designed so that it cannot be lifted, and even if Jekiel gets impatient and kills Ruin, the bigger explosion will be triggered.

By the way…

Ruin looked at Jekiel, who was staring blankly at him.

She was full of confidence in him. There seemed to be no element of hesitation.

It’s an indecipherable curse, and even though he probably understands it best, he hasn’t been shaken in the slightest.

“What… great. Do anything? I won’t close the barrier anymore.”

It was an obvious provocation. If Jekiel kills him, this explosion explodes even louder. Provocation for that.

“Hmm.”

Jekiel, who was looking at Ruin like that, walked slowly and approached. It was an unwavering gait.

It didn’t take much time for the two to get closer. Jekyll let out a small sigh.

He quietly grabbed Ruin’s wrist. Luin did not resist. She didn’t have to resist.

“Certainly, there is no way to unlock it.”

“Put.”

As soon as he heard Jekiel’s words, Ruin laughed.

An extremely powerful curse that even Jekiel cannot lift. In other words, your plan will come true, and you will die.

Now, unknown emotions welled up.

I heard that when you face death, you think more.

—By the way.

At some point, Ruin’s body reacted sensitively.

“What?”

Ruin opened her eyes wide and began spinning the mana inside her body rapidly. I checked the condition of her body.

Thump-!

My heart beats loudly once.

It was a reaction that couldn’t have happened, and shouldn’t have happened.

“The heart… Are you running?”

Ruin hardened with her eyes wide open.

The moment the curse was cast, the heart stopped working. In other words, it has become an institution that is only under the control of the curse.

By the way, was the curse placed clumsily?

There’s no such thing as a badly cursed curse. If you catch it, you get it; if you don’t, you don’t get it. The time when Ruin, who gave her goose bumps, was trying to figure out her situation.

“You looked at me so funny.”

A voice that thundered in my ears.

Even at this moment, when Ruin feels a lot of her embarrassment, the tone seems to be still relaxed.

“If you can’t release it, you don’t have to release it.”

“……!”

She must know that Ruin is in awe of her. But even though she knows that, he doesn’t even care.

“I have been stealing many things. I stole something that shouldn’t have been taken away.”

I just stared at Jekiel’s red eyes as she muttered her incomprehensible words.

I was afraid that I would understand what he was saying. If you understand it, it really seemed like it would shake at that time.

“But… If I had to ask, this would be something I had to take away. It’s not a curse that suits you. Because you are a great demon and also a great human.”

All of her demons discriminated against her, and all of her humans discriminated against her.

However, this being who occupied the highest place among her vampires proudly told her that she was a wonderful being.

“What… do… “

She tried to shake off his arm, but even that was impossible. Since he had already been caught once, it was next to impossible to defeat him with brute force.

So, I had no choice but to watch him do ridiculous things.

And when he realized what the nonsense was, he had no choice but to cover his mouth with his free hand.

“This is… This is a curse… ?”

He was transferring the curse from Ruin’s body to his body.

This happened because his nails dug deep into Ruin’s wrists and ‘cheated’ the curse so that the two bodies felt like one.

A top-notch vampire could do such an outrageous thing.

“I know.”

He replied calmly. Even though he harbored a curse that bordered on catastrophe, he felt no pain and seemed to show no remorse.

“From the moment I put my hand on the barrier, I could have exploded it. But the fact that you allowed my access while thinking about this and that… “

Once again, their eyes met in midair.

“…Maybe he was hoping for salvation after all. I will save you.”

Ruin couldn’t come up with any objections. Transparent tears run down her cheeks. After all, she was hoping for redemption.

“Yes… “

Finally, Ruin nodded her head. The hem of her sleeve wiped her tears.

“I didn’t want to live like this. I wanted to live happily. Me too… I just wanted to live a normal life. The ordinary life that others enjoy is my salvation… This is so unfair.”

A story that could not be told to anyone because no one listened to it. Ruin finally brought up the story that had been buried deep in his heart.

“I… Please save me.”

Kung— Kung—

And finally, the heart started beating inside her body. That she was alive once more, a move that proved she was saved.

“It’s done.”

There was no need for a one-day speech. Ruin, who has gained a new life, will have to whip himself.

Before Ruin, feeling her guilt, could murmur something further from her, Zekiel slapped her on the back.

“Then now.”

My index finger pointed at her upstairs.

“I have to solve everything.”

Ruin nodded her head without saying anything.

◈

The strange existence called ‘ghost’ was nothing more than her phantasmagoria, which Ruin interfered with the heads of other wizards.

In other words, it means that it was solved at the same time that Ruin ate her heart.

It wasn’t a loss to me. Anyway, if you don’t activate this curse of explosion, it seems that you have to die to activate it… If I don’t activate it, that’s it.

When I went back to the social club with everything resolved, all the wizards were already gathered.

They looked at me with slightly mysterious eyes. Among them, Miant, the president of the society, approached me. One arm was wrapped in bandages all over.

“Professor Adrian. That’s right?”

“Yes, I am.”

“I heard that you solved it. I am asking if that is correct.”

Belatedly, the members of the society approached us.

I was in the middle of thinking about the most appropriate line to answer, but Demeri and Louin opened their mouths.

“I-I saw it! Adrian-nim dismantled the barrier of the demon realm that was underground!”

“Right! I even dealt with ghosts!”

Around that time, another member of the Society came up from the basement and reported to Miant.

“Yes. Certainly, there are many spirits of the demon realm in the basement… Professor Adrian’s mana has been confirmed.”

The eyes looking at me slowly changed. The most surprising look was the look, but it was a look that acknowledged its greatness anyway.

Miant snapped his fingers and controlled his voice to spread throughout the social hall.

“This is Miant, the president of the society. The unsavory incident has now been resolved, but we will still suspend social gatherings today in preparation for any unforeseen dangers.”

That way, I roughly sent the wizards back to her quarters and she approached me.

“And to you, Adrian… I can’t help but reward you. Follow me. I will show you Ruikiran’s sincerity.”

If it’s a reward, there’s no need to refuse it. I silently followed her.
