Episode 168
47. Year-end exam (4)
“What are you talking about?”
“Yesterday it was decided to expel Byron. Matchmaking is always conducted safely through mutual agreement, and it is against the school rules to unilaterally drive the opponent to death… … .”
That was a reasonable reason.
And personally, I think I could understand why Dean Irkhan Bradamante reacted that way.
The relationship between me and Irkan… … .
Because it wasn’t just an honors student and a dean.
But expelling Byron is another matter.
Byron was a necessary talent for future plans.
What do you think I did in that confrontation?
It was because it was the perfect opportunity to firmly grasp the Joker card called Byron.
“Off, off… … .”
Even though the injury was serious, it was difficult to even simply move the arm.
Illyana, who had been sitting still at the sight, got up urgently and supported my arm.
“Sanwoo!”
“Are you going to go now? Priests still need to rest… … !!”
“It is a provisional decision. So, if I withdraw by today, wouldn’t the expulsion be invalidated?”
“You mean nullifying the expulsion?”
Camilla raised her voice as if she didn’t understand.
“The boy who made you like that! Sanwoo, you really almost died!!”
“You didn’t die after all.”
I got up from bed with Iliana’s support. Although it looked fine on the outside, there were many places where it creaked in many ways.
“Whoops… … ! 👌👌👌👌👌
Every time I exhaled and moved from my stomach, it felt like something was pricking me inside.
Although I didn’t feel any pain thanks to the effect of Illyana’s Elixir.
A strange sensation kept bothering me.
‘Rehabilitation must also be done separately.’
With that in mind, you’re going to pass Camila.
“Baeksanwoo!”
Camila, very angry, stopped me.
“don’t go.”
“Camilla.”
“I told you not to go.”
“I’m sorry, but I can’t listen to you this time. this is my plan Byron is a necessary person.”
“… … What the hell is that plan?!”
Seeing him screaming in the face of evil, I stopped on the spot.
It was the first time I saw it.
“Sanwoo, do you know why I signed a contract with a spirit? to be strong? Those were all excuses!!”
“Hey Camilla… … .”
George pulls Camilla’s sleeve, and she snaps her hand away.
“It’s because of you! I don’t know what your plans are. I also wanted to help you, so I made that decision!”
I couldn’t answer the cry mixed with weeping.
“A war of the world? to put it back the way it was? That’s not the only reason you’re moving!!!”
Camilla strode towards me. Then stand up straight in front of me and make eye contact.
“Answer me. Now, let me tell you nothing.”
I’m not that insensitive Camilla’s attitude was not sudden.
I actually knew
The reason why Camila signed the spirit contract… … And that the country is slowly guessing the identity of its existence.
Even after removing all useless titles, the stance I am currently taking is not easily acceptable.
Right now, even Elijah knows me not as a mere apostle, but as a messenger from the god of light who borrowed a human body and descended.
That is, half-
player.
The appearance I’ve shown so far was like saying that even she, a faithful priest, would readily admit it.
It’s not really wrong at all.
I was actually a player.
It had information that only the player could know.
He was able to predict a clearer and clearer future than any other noble priest or prophet.
It was the same with correcting or using the warping of the world.
Truly the power of God.
Rather, it means that it is only strange if it is not God.
And it was Camilla who watched it all up close.
Often in the past, Camila would ask how she knew all that information.
Even in embarrassing situations, I had doubts about how I reacted calmly.
I just didn’t ask.
Camila believed in me.
“… … .”
When you can’t put it on because of the voice that touches the part you didn’t want to pay attention to… … .
Illyana, who was supporting me, opened her mouth carefully.
“Sanwoo. I am whoever you are whatever you say I will follow you.”
“Illiana… … .”
“there’s no reason. You believe in Sanwoo.”
The same was true of George, Soyoung, and Taehoon, who were standing still in the back.
All three of them were genuinely concerned for my well-being.
As long as you decide to control the variable.
And since I thought of taking them with me until the end.
Forever and ever, I couldn’t do it without telling anyone and notifying anyone.
“Did I say what day is today?”
“It’s November 21.”
“There’s really not much left until vacation… … .”
Anyway, I was thinking of moving in earnest since vacation.
Aidan’s power-up and Nabe’s level-up using the Succubus Queen.
In addition to that, they even took control of the back alleys and the temples of Canaan.
In order to succeed in everything without any setback, the active support of Camilla and other members of our club was essential.
Around that time, I was going to tell you everything about me.
Because four weeks had passed without any help, I was speaking without even proper preparation.
It would have been much better to make it clear now that this has already happened.
“Listen everyone.”
A quiet space where only the faint sounds of each other’s breathing can be heard.
A squeezing voice breaks the silence.
“I am a player.”
* * *
It was a long, but not complicated story. I told my colleagues everything about this world.
I was worried too.
Was the reality they were living in a world that was thoroughly decorated?
Even I, who is accustomed to such a setting right now, is sure to not be able to easily get out of the shock after hearing such a story.
What would be the reaction of the children who did not easily come across such information?
But.
“I knew it would too.”
“Because it’s weird that it’s not.”
It didn’t look like he was shocked or anything.
Even Taehoon and Soyoung, who have relatively little contact points.
“Aren’t you guys surprised?”
“I was surprised. I was surprised… … .”
George glanced at the arm of the vacuum he was wearing on his right hand and added.
“I had a vague feeling.”
“It’s the same with me and Taehoon.”
Soyoung nodded her head.
“I heard a little bit from Camilla-sama… … . Do you remember when we first met, Sanwoo?”
“first?”
It was definitely the master’s exercise room.
Those two were the first sewing machines I modified since I came to this world.
“At that time, Sanwoo said that he was from Daedong of the Eastern Federation.”
“ah? yes… … It was.”
I can’t recall the details, but I remembered that I was arguing around.
“We, Geumgangmun, are surprisingly powerful in the Eastern Federation. I am also acquainted with the prime minister of the capital city.”
“That’s right?”
“So the last time we held the triad, there was a time when we checked the identity of Sanwoo at Geumgangmun.”
Oops.
I hadn’t even thought of doing a background check.
At that time, he was also poor at opening his mouth, and if he digs a little deeper, he would be found out.
“It was unknown. Even in the Eastern Federation, there was not a single person named ‘Baeksanwoo’.”
“The Eastern Federation must register a child when a child is born. It is stipulated by law. Even if it is an abandoned child, the facility takes care of it.”
“So, I already know that Sanwoo-sama is not from the Eastern Federation.”
Taehoon, who was standing next to Soyoung, also helped with a word.
“Then why didn’t you say anything?”
“Because I trusted Sanwoo.”
“okay. Everyone will feel the same Even if you’re from another world, it doesn’t change the fact that you’re the Baeksanwoo I know.”
It was an unfamiliar word.
At the same time, it was also a word that resonated with the heart.
“Sanwoo.”
“Camilla… … .”
“Thank you for telling me now.”
“I’m sorry everyone. You guys believed me like this, but I was in a hurry to hide it.”
“You had a good reason. Now that I’m honest with you, it’s okay.”
It was Camilla, who had been voicing her emotions a while ago, but she smiled broadly as she spoke in a calm voice.
It was a beautiful smile.
“Come on, anyway! The point now is that Byron shouldn’t be expelled, right?”
“uh? Oh yes!!”
It had been completely forgotten for a moment.
“We need Byron for what’s to come.”
“Ahh, if our players say it, we must follow it like a stone.”
George Madeleine shrugging and shrugging as usual.
“We haven’t made a final decision yet, so we should move on to Arthur’s Faculty right now.”
“great.”
We had to move as quickly as possible, but the distance from the temple of Canaan here to the Faculty Building was a bit long.
There is not even a warp gate nearby, so it would be faster to go on foot than to use the warp gate.
However, it is difficult to aim even at my body right now, and it was uncertain whether I would be able to arrive on foot in time.
“Isn’t it difficult to move yet?”
“No, I can go.”
“Yeah, of course you can. But I may not be able to make it in time. So… … .”
Camila said so and held out her arms.
“Give it to me.”
* * *
“Camila-sama, I hung up ‘Yin-Yang Taegeuk’.”
Soyoung and Taehoon clap their hands. The black and white Taegeuk pattern engraved on Camilla’s leg rotates gently.
Geumgangmun’s unique martial art that amplifies the body’s sense of balance.
“Both, this.”
It didn’t end there, and she drank the elixir that Illyana had kept as an extra.
A light expanse’s elixir.
It was an elixir that minimized the damage when falling and reduced the weight.
I wondered where he got so many elixir from.
I decided to ask about it later.
“Are you ready now?”
When all the pre-work for the quick move is done, George and I stand right in front of Camila.
“Come with me, Ceylon.”
When he summoned the 3 star wind spirit, the cold air of early winter blew in.
“Then let me go.”
As George brought the vacuum’s arm to the ground, the high-density air that had been compressed inside exploded out.
The power of the wind spirit was added, creating a huge tornado beneath her feet.
“Uh- ah ah ah ah-!!!”
A body that floats in the air in an instant by riding an updraft.
An unpleasant sensation as if the lower leg had entered a weightless opponent, and the arm that embraced Camilla’s neck was filled with strength.
“San, Sanwoo… … Could you please stop holding me too tight? Joe, it’s a little closer.”
“ah! sorry.”
Camilla’s ears were noticeably bright red.
I don’t know if it’s because it’s cold or if it’s because of untimely skinship.
Now that Camilla held the princess in the arms of her, it was unavoidable.
Wow-!
We rode George’s wind and glide swiftly through the skies of Paradise Island.
However, no matter how much weight is reduced, the altitude will gradually decrease as long as there is no subject in the wind.
By now, the distance from the ground was about 4m or so.
“Sister Jorgan!”
When Camilla called out the spirit’s name, a huge pillar of rock suddenly rose.
Camila jumps up the street using the pillars that rise along the road as a stepping stone.
It was the power of the spirit of Jisan, Yorgan who made a contract with her.
Although the area of the raised pillar was so thin that even a single foot could not fully step on it.
As the weight of her body decreased and her sense of balance was amplified, Camilla sprinted without hesitation.
No matter how much the street is a street, passers-by looked at us curiously in the middle.
It was better to put the shame aside for a while.
Because it was incredibly fast.
“It’s arrival.”
As a result of directing not only the pillars of Jordan, but also James Bond-level action scenes that jump over the roof in the middle.
It took less than a few minutes to get from the temple to the disciplinary committee within the faculty building.
‘Crazy. Did I grow this much while I was fainting?’
I carefully descended to the ground, admiring the strength of Camila, who had grown so much.
Unlike before, when it was difficult for my body to aim, I have now recovered enough to be able to walk properly.
No, it’s just because I’ve lost weight… … ?
Well, anyway.
Let’s try it from the top first.
After taking a deep breath, I opened the tightly closed door of the disciplinary committee and shouted.
“I have an objection!!!”
