I miss you for a long time
―I’ll be in the center, so when I raise my hand and send a signal, infuse mana into the magic circle.
I went to the location indicated by Luciel, put my hand on it and waited, but he erased part of the magic circle and raised his hand as a signal.
I inject my inner cavity according to the signal… what?
It feels like pouring water into a completely bottomless dock.
Not only me, but Luciel seems to be injecting mana, but there is still no change in the magic circle.
What kind of magic is this… .
I almost reached the limit and tried to say it was impossible, but the magic circle started to glow blue.
I thought if I held on for a while, the magic would be activated, so I gritted my teeth and endured it, but the mana gathered in the center of the magic circle began to fluctuate wildly.
Quaang-!
I tried to stop the injection and warn him that it was dangerous, but the explosion was quick.
With a roaring sound, the dust flutters.
Fortunately, he immediately released his hand and raised a self-defense force to protect him, so he was not harmed.
Will Luciel in the middle of the magic circle be all right?
When I blew away the dust with wind magic, Luciel looked fine, but his expression was paler than before.
“Hey, are you okay?”
―I had enough mana, but it seems that the theory was wrong.
“What kind of magic is this?”
Among the magic I learned from him, even the most powerful attack magic didn’t eat up this much mana.
―You said you would explain later. I’ll call you when it’s fixed again, so get away and refill your mana.
If someone hears it, they’ll know that mana was entrusted to them.
I asked again, saying that they would not cooperate if it came out like this, but no answer came back.
I didn’t even listen, I erased figures and runes on the floor and wrote them over and over again.
I looked at the magic circle to find out by myself, but I don’t know.
Although I learned magic from Luciel, I didn’t learn the magic of using a magic circle like this.
There are runes that I have never seen before, and the formulas are quite complex.
I give up and try fortune-telling, but within 10 minutes, he touches me again.
Tried again and again failed, failed, failed.
I don’t know how many times I’ve failed.
Sigh… . I feel like dying.
Every time I try, I have to blow my inner energy to the limit, and every time I fail, I explode, so I can’t afford it.
After the master’s departure, I can freely use even the intangible sword, and although I have advanced one step further from the previous level, my inner strength is not infinite like Luciel’s.
Luciel’s condition is also not very good.
I inject my energy from the edge, but Luciel is at the center of the magic circle, the center of the explosion.
Besides, I had luck in the middle, but he never stopped revising and tried it right after the revision was finished.
“Luciel, aren’t you tired? Let’s get some rest.”
Internal energy continues to recover, but it is mentally limited.
Still, when the body is tired, the mind is rather clear, but it feels like the complicated head has become a little lighter because of Sejin’s confession from earlier.
―I’m fine, so fill up your mana when you have time to talk.
That toxic guy didn’t even listen and just stared at the magic circle.
“If we don’t rest now, we won’t cooperate anymore. Get some rest too.”
– Because I’m fine.
I couldn’t even talk without looking, so I bent down and approached Luciel, who was correcting the magic circle.
Maybe because he was so focused, he didn’t even know I was approaching him, but he hugged him from behind.
-What, what are you doing?
I was very surprised to see her body trembling.
Still, it seems that Luciel is also quite tired of not pushing away.
“You are having a hard time too. I don’t know what magic it is, stop it. Can’t you see your wings are sold out?”
Although Luciel is the guardian of the demon beast, it does not mean that the demon beast provides magical power to Luciel without any cost.
Although Luciel became the guardian of the demon beast and became corrupted, it was not completely corrupted.
If it is completely corrupted, it will be the same as the demons… No, it’s more serious than the demons.
It doesn’t even work at all, because it just becomes an incarnation of slaughter.
The more magic is drawn from the demon beast and used, the remnants of it erode Luciel’s body and accelerate his corruption.
Of course, it’s not as threatening as the wounds left by the demon lord I treated last time.
However, I cannot solve the erosion of the corruption caused by the demon tree.
I came here without seeing the side story, but [I became an idiot and an inferior student at the Hunter School] ends with a happy ending.
I chose this world because the main character and everyone around him ended happily, but there is only one unfortunate person on the main character’s side.
That’s Luciel.
It was a planned misfortune.
Luciel falls in love with Kim Do-hyun at first sight.
Every time he meets Do-hyeon, he flirts with him and expresses affection, but Do-hyeon’s son is a single-minded dandelion.
Was it an epilogue?
Near the end, there is a scene where Lee Ji-sung visits Luciel and tells him that he has defeated the demon king.
Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com
Ji-seong Lee, who knows that Luciel likes Do-hyun Kim, threatens Luciel with the news that Do-hyun Kim is getting married soon.
Upon hearing the news, Luciel was silent for a while and asked to call Kim Do-hyun.
Lee Ji-seong is embarrassed, but when Luciel earnestly asks for it, saying that it is the last time, he eventually calls her.
Contrary to Lee Ji-sung’s concerns, Luciel does not cling to Kim Do-hyun pathetically.
Congratulations on your marriage and ask Kim Do-hyun for one favor.
He asked to be killed when he was completely corrupted.
Of course, there is no death scene and this story is mentioned very briefly.
Although they are the same main character, the real main character in the original work is Lee Ji-seong, not Kim Do-hyun.
-Are you worried about me now?
“yes. I don’t know why you’re overdoing it, but the more you overdo it, the faster the demon’s magic erodes.”
―That, how do you… .
Guy Luciel, with a very surprised expression.
“How do you know, did you forget who treated your wounds last time?”
-Ah, it was. This much is fine, so let it go.
I struggle to free it, but it doesn’t work.
Instead, he hugged her tighter.
-ah… it hurts.
The guy who was fine even after being hit by the sword steel was deadly.
“It hurts. Promise me you won’t overdo it. I’ll release you if you promise.”
―My, why did I make such a promise… .
“Yes, because I want to see you for a long time.”
-That… What does that mean?
What do you mean? There is no future if you work so hard like this and completely corrupt before the main characters come back two years later.
“Are you stupid? you just said I want to see you for a long time.”
There are reasons ahead, but the biggest reason is that I want to see you for a long time.
After sending the master so suddenly, I naturally looked around.
There are much more times when we quarrel than when we are friendly, and sometimes I think it’s annoying, but I have a lot of affection with Luciel.
He said it was kind of ugly… .
I don’t want to spend this guy in vain like his master.
Of course, Luciel wouldn’t go to the top without a word like Master.
But one day, if the day comes when he suddenly becomes completely corrupted and doesn’t recognize me… .
I feel really sad at that time.
Well, I might die of old age first… .
-Ah Okay. I promise you, release me.
When I release the hug, he comes to me and presses on my shoulder.
“You promised to take revenge… Ouch!”
puck!
Luciel suddenly kicked him in the shin.
I didn’t expect to attack at all, so when I got hit properly, it felt like my bones were broken.
I immediately bent down and tried to use the healing magic on my shin, but I felt a soft touch on my forehead.
– Promise me. you do it soon
I close my eyes tight and put my face in.
Her face is completely red, probably because she hates my lips touching her forehead while she doesn’t care.
Really, he’s a funny guy.
right!
I just ate chestnuts.
―Ah! What are you doing?
He grabs his forehead and closes his eyes.
“You bastard, did you think you wouldn’t hit me after hitting me first? And the other day, I should have told you how humans make promises.”
―Last time, you did it the Celestial way.
I hit someone’s shin so hard that the bone was broken, and my mouth popped out at the thought of getting hit just once.
“So, this time we have to do it the human way.”
When I put out my little finger, the guy puts it on with a disapproving expression.
-Then next time we’ll do it our way.
“I get it. I used my energy so much that my stomach skin seemed to stick to my back. We made a promise, so let’s go and eat.”
– Come and eat. I’ll be looking at the magic circle.
“Write, you promised a while ago and then write? I’ll get you a box of chocolate bars too, so follow me.”
He spoke and held out his hand.
He said he would give me a chocolate bar, so he obediently held my hand.
-Give me two boxes. Zwigs and Cool Break.
“Did you leave it?”
* * *
– When will you come next time?
“About 20 days? It may be a little late, but it will come within a month anyway.”
―Then, I’ll finish the theory by then.
“Don’t try it yourself, just fix the theory.”
-Okay, so don’t nag me. you promised
For two days, he took time off from eating and sleeping to help Luciel with his magic, but he kept failing.
And still, Luciel didn’t tell me what kind of magic it was.
I’ll let you know if it’s successful, but what kind of magic is it… .
Well, though, as I helped him with his magic research and used his energy to the limit every time, the speed of his energy recovery wasn’t huge, but it definitely got a little faster.
It’s a bit strange that I haven’t heard from the master that I can increase my energy resilience in this way.
At my level, even small improvements are huge.
However, because he was so absorbed in helping Luciel, he couldn’t decide how to respond to Sejin’s confession.
-Aren’t you going?
Well, I’ll try to bump into it somehow.
“I will be back.”
At the same time as he spoke, he tore the leaves.
It’s a familiar bathroom, but no one is there.
Well, since I spent two days with Luciel, about an hour and a half had passed here as well.
There’s no way you’ll be in the bathroom until then. There is no smell (?) because the ventilation is good.
Perhaps my mother hadn’t gone yet, so I put my ear to the door.
“Sejin, mom, can I go to bed today?”
Also, you haven’t gone yet.
First of all, I thought I shouldn’t stay here, so I moved to my car parked in the underground parking lot using warp magic.
I sat down in the driver’s seat and took my phone out of my pocket.
First of all, I tried to initialize it from the time by turning it off and on, but there are several tok messages.
[Teacher, where are you?]
[Teacher, are you still at home?]
[Teacher?]
[Hey, teacher?]
[Why aren’t you saying anything?]
[Your mother went to bed. If you are at home, please let me know where you are. Let me help you. Please reply.]
When I reset the time by turning it off and on, about 1 hour and 40 minutes have passed.
[Oh sorry. I got out of Blink. Maybe I used too much mana, so I fell asleep because I was tired.]
I sent a reply and started the engine and was about to start, but the guy called.
“uh… Aren’t you with your mother?”
―I came out to talk on the phone while making an excuse to work in the guild. How did you get out? That mom went to the bathroom right away without even stopping, so I endured it for ten years.
“Oh, what… I came out with Blink.”
―Isn’t it possible to use Blink only when you can see it? Our bathroom has no window.
did you?
“Well, there are ways.”
―You have a lot of secrets. There’s work today… Teacher? Are you listening?
“yes. I am listening.”
―Can you just pretend that nothing happened today?
… It is a subtle feeling that cannot be explained in words.
If I had to express it, would you feel relieved and sorry?
I’m not stupid.
I know how Sejin felt when he acted like that.
Besides, it was already two days ago for me, but it must have been less than two hours for him… .
I think it’s too cowardly to answer like this.
-Teacher?
After thinking for a moment, he carefully opened his mouth.
