28. Cynthia is laughing
#28. Cynthia is laughing
“Sir baaal!”
The stone sling of anger was directed at the monster.
Lee Soo-hyeok thought that this time he would be able to crush the f*cking monster’s head.
However, the monster evaded his movements with a single step.
Then. Wept.
“Mehe~ Mehehehe~”
The cry was like a mockery, so Lee Soo-hyeok became more enthusiastic. No, actually, he was sure to laugh at me crying like that every time an attack failed.
Why is his cry so loud because he looks like a dog and not a goat?
‘Does a f*cking monster laugh at people?’
Lee Soo-hyuk has already forgotten why he fell here and why he had to fight with such a monster.
‘I have a dog. I can’t go out unless I get my feet wet… sh*t.’
After all, there is only one monster, so you can think about how to kill him and get out slowly.
“I will definitely kill you.”
An angry male voice echoed throughout the cave. He felt his anger rise as he heard the echo of his own voice.
“Chubert?”
The bastard monster licked his tongue at Lee Soo-hyuk.
The other day I thought he was licking his lips, but when he opened his mouth and wiggled his tongue up and down… It seemed that there was an impure intention. Such a dog child.
‘What crime did I commit to come here? Why do I have to be ridiculed by such a crazy son of a b*tch….’
Lee Soo-hyeok felt resentful of the person who imprisoned him here.
And more than that, I wanted to kill that bastard. However, the mana did not gather well because of the pounding head.
‘… Whoa. It’s not the time to lament your life. It’s done, I just hope my head hurts a little less. I thought it was a dream and hit the head too hard.’
A few seconds to pass out after hitting a stone on the head.
The monster bit him on the arm and woke up, startled by the pain.
‘It’s fortunate that this guy didn’t kill me right away. If I had bitten an artery rather than a leg while passing out, I would have gone to the underworld. Thanks to that, he is humiliated like this… I’ll pay you back soon.’
Lee Soo-hyeok thought the monster was trying to play with him before killing him.
He thought that he could kill himself at any time.
He intended to destroy that idea completely.
‘Monster. I’ll tear your limbs apart.’
Lee Soo-hyeok endured the pain and saved his mana. And again he rushed at the monster. Reach this time
It will be different from before. It’s absurd, but… Because I learned a lot while being fooled by that son of a b*tch.
Moreover, this place is full of magic. He concentrated the magic he had accumulated here into his stones and fists.
‘I’ll end it with this one shot.’
He intended to make me regret my carelessness.
‘Take it!’
A blow of conversion.
Lee Soo-hyeok’s attack containing all the essence he learned was directed at the dog-like monster.
“… ….”
And missed.
“Mehehehe! Mehehehehe!”
This time, not only was she ridiculed, but she was also slapped on the cheek.
The attack failed, so he came up to himself, slapped him on the face, and returned to his original position.
Blood was seeping from his face. The scratch hurt. And it was embarrassing.
“Hey! You bastard!”
Lee Soo-hyeok eventually lost his temper and threw the weapon he was holding. It wouldn’t kill him, but he wanted to hit even one.
He wanted to see the smile on his face distort.
But….
“Mefehehehe!”
He avoided even that.
Splendid movements… He tumbled back and dodged stones flying at him.
The monster laughed at Lee Soo-hyuk and repeatedly sat down and stood up in front of him.
Lee Soo-hyeok grabbed him by the back of his neck and fell down.
***
There are several hidden pieces in [Owning the Academy]. And Lee Soo-hyeok absorbs all of them and grows up.
Talent and skill add up to become a monster.
Nothing is known about the existence of Hidden Peace.
Why does it exist and how did it come about? No one knows, and it has never appeared in a novel. It just exists.
And Lee Soo-hyeok finds it by chance.
He is a typical ‘lucky’ type protagonist.
Does a hidden piece come out just because you caught an eel? Although Lee Soo-hyeok’s method of finding hidden peace is mostly the same….’
I’m just thinking about it now, but it was absurd to think that the hidden peace came out of the elk’s body.
Oh, I didn’t have any complaints.
Could Cynthia be dissatisfied with it?
‘Anyway, Cynthia. Become the strongest being as soon as possible by absorbing hidden peace, elixir, and everything else. If necessary, I will steal what Lee Soo-hyeok wants to eat….’
I thought it would be nice if Cynthia was a villain who was trying to destroy the world by entering the realm called the shrine.
I imagined the future Cynthia.
Creepy-
“… ?”
But at that moment, goosebumps broke out all over my body.
What is it?
‘When I think of the image of Sia as an adult, I suddenly get goosebumps. It’s strange.’
When I imagined the future Cynthia, I felt something drained away.
I seemed to see such an ominous future that haunted me. Is it an illusion? I guess… ?
Yes. A good girl like Shia would do something that would harm me.
‘I guess it’s just my mood.’
Ah yes. Lee Soo-hyuk is also rolling hard, so he will do his part properly. Let him save the world and let Shia help by her side.
‘Because I will support you with money and everything… Just grow healthy and right. Don’t be crooked like Lee Soo-hyuk.’
By the way, what is Lee Soo-hyuk trying to do now?
You must have broken level 1, right?
The second step is the real thing, but I don’t know if I’m going to do it well.
This time, it’s set so that you can only break up to level 4 to be released… I don’t know. You will do well
“Um… It’s perfect this time.”
I looked at Cynthia’s posture and nodded her head.
It was an impeccable posture.
… Said the bodyguard next to him.
‘Certainly, he has a natural talent for physical use.’
I remembered it all after I told her several times. I didn’t stop there and even applied it. I could tell from the surprise of the bodyguards.
“The monsters aren’t much, are they?”
Cynthia said with a grin.
“It’s because you’re good at it. At this rate of growth… Do you think your grades will go up a lot in this midterm exam?”
“Really?”
“Oh. I have a pretty good eye, so you can trust me.”
This time I just gave my opinion.
No matter how you look at it, it was right that Cynthia was doing well.
I heard that Lee Soo-hyeok struggled a little at first, but Cynthia was killing all the monsters with the attitude I told her.
“Hmmm. Then I’ll believe you. Ah! Mister.”
“Why?”
“If your grades go up a lot in the midterm exam this time… Can you give me a present?”
“A gift?”
Cynthia, who receives something from others, makes the request first? I was honestly surprised. She wondered what the plan was. Hmm… I don’t know.
“Yes. Since I signed a contract, if I get good grades and my rank goes up, it’s good for you, right? So… If your grades go up a lot, that is, if you go up as much as you want, give me a small present. With what i want FYI, it’s not expensive!”
‘Yes. What can you do if your grades go up? It’s not like the gift you’re asking for is something that’s hard to get.’
I nodded.
You didn’t look confident until a while ago, but it was nice to see you gain confidence like this.
To be honest, I felt like giving a gift right now.
“Good! Did you promise?”
Cynthia smiled brightly and pulled the protest again.
She could see a faint light streaming from her palms.
Hidden Peace was showing signs of manifesting little by little. As in the original work, the condition for expression was to catch a certain number of monsters.
‘It looks like Sia’s hidden peace will be revealed soon. I wonder if I can hunt for another hour.’
The place we are currently at is a special type gate, which was discovered by Lee Soo-hyeok in the original work.
You can set the strength and number of monsters that appear through a special control device.
‘Anyway, there is no better place to train than here. Because there are almost no gates where monsters come out step by step. I can control the quantity.’
The principle of monsters appearing is simple.
There are 4 doors in this gate, and each door has a different monster strength.
The red door on the far left is easiest, then yellow is easiest, then blue, then purple.
As you can see, the array of rainbow colors was left as it is.
Control is done by moving the stone slab in front of me.
There is pressing and pushing. Pressing is related to opening doors, and pushing is related to numbers.
In the original work, Lee Soo-hyeok monopolized and used it alone.
He is a greedy guy.
Anyway. Since Shia has also adapted to this amount, should she try increasing the amount of monsters coming in?
I pushed the stone slab.
I could feel the monsters increasing little by little.
… But something seems to be growing a little too much?
