16 Imperial University Tower (4)
Heavy stillness in the drawing room.
How long has such silence passed?
Sion’s mouth slowly opens, looking at Ahmad’s dizzying eyes with languid yet still eyes.
“ It doesn’t matter.”
With him, Zion’s eyes curved like a crescent moon.
“ The important thing is that I, who is in front of you, is called Zion Agnes and has survived the Imperial Castle until now.”
Ahmad felt an unending ominousness in Zion’s eyes.
9 , the terrifying feeling of pressure that is so far beyond the limits of human beings that even those who have it momentarily shudder.
It reminded him of the heyday of Emperor Urdios, whom Ahmad had seen decades ago.
‘ Maybe… … Did only the essence really change?’
And it brought these thoughts to Ahmad’s head.
he also knew
How has Prince Zion been treated in the Imperial Castle so far, and how has he been treated?
Abandoned from the imperial family at a young age of less than ten years, and almost imprisoned in Chimseonggung Palace, the imperial family was shamed and subjected to countless assassination attempts and contempt.
Even the assassination attempts he had heard at first glance could not be counted with his fingers.
‘ To survive in the Imperial Palace?’
Although it was very rare, there were cases in which the essence of existence was changed.
When life is on the brink or fate is twisted.
Perhaps the case of Prince Zion could correspond to the first reason.
In fact, Prince Zion’s words gave me the feeling that I would not have been able to live until now if the essence had not changed.
‘ Did Agnes’ blood wake up late?’
It was probable enough.
In the depths of Ahhamad’s eyes, who was convinced by putting the pieces together like that, a bitter light appeared for a moment and then disappeared.
If it is enough to change even the essence in order to survive, how hellishly happened in the Imperial Castle?
“… … I was reckless when I asked your lord who he was. We apologize. Then can you tell me what you came to see me for?”
After bowing his head to apologize to Shion, Ahmad asks again.
“ There are three in total.”
At that, Shion opened her mouth with three fingers.
“ I want you to improve the whereabouts of the mysterious monster and how to connect with it, improve a magic circle, and help me once.”
bizarre (怪醫).
In the chronicle of Flosimar, his actions as a doctor with three fingers were very eccentric and free-spirited.
A person who can be called the best in the empire simply in terms of improving the human body.
The location of the ghost was hidden and constantly changing, so there was no way to meet him except through acquaintances.
And Ahmad in front of him was one of the few close friends with such a skepticism.
Shion was going to improve his weak body through negativity.
“ Hmm, the side of the monster and the magic circle can be considered if your Highness tells you why, but… … It is impossible for me to help you personally.”
Ahmad shook his head in response to Zion’s words.
“ I am already retired and have decided to dedicate everything to this university tower. That is why they are no longer receiving calls from the family and the imperial family. If I help His Majesty Zion like that, I will be breaking the oath I made.”
It was a statement that could only be made because he had reached the ‘sky’.
The right to choose everything according to one’s own discretion without noticing the Imperial Castle and the family.
Only those who have reached the apex of the world will have this power.
But even with Ahamad’s words, Zion’s eyes did not waver and was still.
Because I knew I was going to answer like this from the beginning.
And Zion had already prepared the answer for that.
“ What if my request for help is not for Hwangseong, but for the university’s mato?”
“… … What does that mean?”
Ahmad’s eyes narrowed at Shion’s words.
“ Here, it has to do with the magic you need to improve.”
Sion handed the magic circle he had drawn on paper to such an archmage.
It was the red circle that was used to sift out the monsters of the old Chimseonggung Palace.
“… … .”
Ahhamad silently looked at the magic circle in front of him.

Maybe it was because it was the first magic I had ever seen in my life.
Ahmad’s eyes began to flutter.
How much silence had passed?
“ This is… … What the hell is the magic to find?”
A question came out of the archmage’s mouth.
“ Enemy.”
Shion replied with a smile.

“ Damn it, damn it!!!”
The hallway of the university tower where all classes are over and no one exists.
It was already night and Essien was walking down the hallway lit only by soft magic lamps, swearing.
His eyes were full of young shame and anger.
In Essien’s mind, the image of himself, who had been slumped and slumped down by the eyes of Prince Sion in a lecture a while ago, was endlessly replaying.
“ I’m like that guy!”
To be honest, the eyes of Prince Sion I saw at that time were so frightening that my body trembled even when I remembered it now, but the shame that he showed an unsightly appearance in front of Priscilla was greater than that.
“ Sion Agnes… … I will not forget.”
Essien, who muttered like that, started looking around the classrooms as if walking down the hallway looking for something.
‘ By the way, what happened all of a sudden?’
The reason Essien was in the tower at this time was because he had received a call from someone.
Originally, the eldest son of a large family, he did not go just because someone called him, but this time was a special case.
It had to do with his grades.
Unlike other students, Essien had a different reason for maintaining top grades in the Imperial University Mato.
Just s*xual dealings with some professors.
Even if it was the tower of Agnes University, the best magic educational institution in the Empire, not all professors could be clean.
There were, inevitably, professors who wanted to rise higher or to take advantage of something rather dishonest, and Essien was one of the students who had s*x with them.
‘ Don’t you know that contact at school like this poses a risk of being caught?’
The person who called this time was one of the professors who had such a s*xual transaction, and he had returned to the tower like this because he had a very urgent business.
Of course, I didn’t tell anyone because it wouldn’t be good for other people to find out.
Rumble!
Essien, who finally arrived in front of the classroom he was supposed to contact, roughly opened the door and went inside.
What he saw in his eyes was,
“ Essien? why are you here… … .”
“ What, Essien, you too… … ?”
There were five or six students who arrived first in the dark classroom with no lights on.
All the sons of the great family who are similar or slightly inferior to him.
As soon as Essien saw them, he knew that they were just as s*xually traded as he was.
“ What kind of dog… … .”
It was not a good place to meet and get to know each other, so when swear words came out of Essien’s mouth,
“ Are you all here?”
In the corner of the dark classroom where even the moonlight did not shine, an In-young appeared.
A middle-aged man with a very soft impression for teaching a cold class.
It was Professor Proud Lindel.
“ Tell me right from the start. How important is it that you have called us all here? You are well aware that it is dangerous to gather inside the tower like this.”
Essien, who frowned at such Proud, spoke nervously.
A very cocky attitude for what a student would do to a professor.
However, Professor Proud continued to speak with a smile on his face, not frowned even at Essien’s attitude.
“ It’s not a s*xual story, but I called it for something more important than that.”
bum bum, bum bum.
With those words, Professor Proud slowly began to approach the students.
“ Is it important?”
Is it because the atmosphere felt by such a professor was different from usual?
Students who unknowingly move one step back.
“ Today, it is finally time for you to do your best.”
A soft voice came from the lips of Professor Proud, who approached the students faster than that.
“ What… … !”
The moment when doubts and embarrassment are young in the eyes of the students,
Kwajik!
Something like black thorns protruded through Essien’s chest in front.
“ Big, gagging! This me… … !”
Essien’s breath is cut off without even being able to complete the right words with the scream of death.
His eyes were so young that he could not understand this situation until the moment of his death.
And before Essien’s body even fell to the floor, quagga-ga-ga-ga-gak!
Dozens of black thorns began to erupt from the bodies of other students who were watching the scene from the side with astonished eyes.
“ Sah, live… … Aww!”
“ Ahhh!”
Students screaming and dying in an instant.
Looking at the father Gyu-hwan that he had created in that way, a gentle smile appeared on the lips of Professor Proud, or higher-level demon Hiduk.
* * *
“… … Shall I just go back?”
The hallway of the tower where Essien was a while ago.
There, Tyrian Friharden was walking slowly with a face that everything was bothering him.
Now that all the lectures were over, Tyrian, who was bothered by lifting his fingers, was here for one reason.
Professor Proud’s call.
It was a little strange to call Tyrian himself because he had never had any contact with him, but he was forced to move when he said that he had something to discuss with him on an important matter related to attending the university’s horse tower.
“ I also need to review the recipe that Prince Zion wrote down earlier… … .”
In Tyran’s head while muttering like that, the figure of Prince Zion he had seen a while ago came to mind.
Contrary to the rumors called the shame of the imperial family, when I saw Prince Zion in reality, the words that he was the ruler immediately came to mind.
But more than that, Tyrann’s memory was the sight of Prince Zion writing the formula on the blackboard without hesitation and writing it down in one breath.
‘ It was obviously impossible without a perfect understanding of the technique.’
How did Prince Zion know the answer to that problem?
It was a problem that even he himself, who had the memories of his previous life as a great mage, could not properly grasp it.
‘ It didn’t seem like he had any particular skill in magic.’
Is it natural for Agnes’ direct blood relatives to be like that?
No, it couldn’t be.
‘ Thanks to you, I could see a way forward, but… … .’
How long have you been thinking about him?
Tyrian, who arrived in front of the classroom where he was supposed to meet, pushed the door slowly.
Drooling-
A classroom door that opens easily if it is not properly closed.
Soon after, Tyrian’s eyes began to sink as he entered the classroom.
“ This is… … .”
A thick bloody smell wafts through the tip of the nose.
And with him, the scene inside the classroom, where only the light of the moon shines through his eyes, begins to enter.
Five or six corpses were scattered randomly between the chairs and the podium with the school table.
“ He just died.”
Tyran, who recognized at once that they were students of the University Mato because of the remnants of magical power remaining on the corpses, approached the corpses with cold eyes.
As if they had been stabbed by dozens of spears, they had holes all over their bodies, so the bodies could not even be identified.
Its cruel appearance was also her appearance, but it was something else that made Tyrian worried.

Magi flowing from the pierced wounds of the corpses.
As if he had no intention of hiding it from the beginning, the concentration of such magic was so thick that even ordinary people could recognize it.
‘ Black magic? if not… … .’
Tyr’an’s eyes, holding up a handful of such magic with his fingertips, glowed blue and began to chase the traces of the magic.
A unique tracking magic that only you can use.
Tyrian knew how serious the situation was now.
It was because the murder by the Magi took place inside the Imperial University Tower in the center of the capital.
So, no matter how lazy by nature he was, he couldn’t just look at it and pass it on.
His head begins to spin quickly with him.
‘ Obviously, it was Professor Proud who called me into this classroom. But the professor is not here. Then this is… … !’
It was a moment when Tyrian, who had drawn a conclusion in an instant, was about to leave the classroom with a firm expression on his face.
“ Tee, you are Tyrian! what are you doing now… … !”
A loud shout came from the classroom door as if waiting.
There was Professor Froud, who was looking at this with astonished eyes.
Before Tyrian even reacted to him,
“ What’s going on!”
Perhaps five or six professors came to the lecture hall after hearing Professor Proud’s cry.
“ Hey, what is this!”
Soon after, their eyes also begin to color with astonishment after seeing the devastation in the classroom.
and at that moment,
Fuhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Magi, flowing from the corpses, gathered at Tyrian in an instant, wrapped around his right hand and burned fiercely.
“ That… … Magi!! I hope you are Tyrian!!”
One of the professors, who immediately recognized that it was a Magi, looked at the corpses and Tyr’an’s right hand, shouting in disbelief.
There were corpses lying around, and Tyrian was emitting magic energy from the middle.
It was a sight that made everyone think that Tyrian was the culprit.
In particular, Maggi is a felony that can be executed just by dealing with it.
‘You got it right.’
Tyrann thought as he looked at the Magi that was firmly attached to his right hand and did not fall off.
This was a trap.
A trap he dug out from the beginning.
In this lifetime, he was just a student at the university tower and had no power or power.
Of course, the Eunwon relationship.
So it wasn’t easy.
I never thought that I would sell a trap to myself, so I got caught.
‘ It bothered me.’
With that in mind, Tyrian slowly turned his eyes to look at Professor Proud.
The traces of magic visible only in his eyes.
The traces were directly leading to Professor Proud.
‘ If I’m dragged like this, I’m sure I’ll be the culprit.’
Professor Prowood was certain to be the culprit for all this, but there was no way to prove it right now.
However, if he was caught like this, he would surely be sentenced to death without even getting a chance to be properly framed.
If it was enough to kill even the sons of the great family just to dig a trap, it would be easier than turning your hand over to drive yourself with fabricated evidence.
‘ Then you have no choice but to get out of your seat.’
You will be disqualified from being a student at the University Mato and will be on the run for the time being pursued by the Empire, but it was better than being caught.
“ Tiran, I promise you that I will not use force if you obey me.”
Contrary to what they said, the professors approached Tyrian while gradually raising their magical powers.
Their eyes had already confirmed Tyrian as the culprit.
At the same time, Tyrann also chanted magic inside, and it was time to sneak into the window.
“ Something interesting happened.”
A single voice echoed in the ears of such Tyrian and the professors.
His voice was low, but it was very vivid, as if he was speaking right next to him.
Was it because of the unknown ominousness in his voice?
As if possessed by something, people’s heads turn toward the direction the voice came from at the same time.
Soon in the eyes of such people,
bum bum, bum bum.
The image of Shion walking towards this side with languid eyes, wearing a black robe like darkness, began to be reflected.
