I Became a Student at the Transcension Academy

Side Story Chapter 5 - Strange Stranger (1) A

man in neat armor.

Of course, if you look at the details, many parts were different, but he looked like a medieval knight of the earth.

Seo-joon looked at the man without saying anything, wanting something.

But did he think Seo-joon's silent appearance was ignoring him?

The displeased man's expression contorted.

Soon after, he started to move toward Seo-joon.

The armor collided with each other and several times heard the sound of iron.

The man stood in front of Seo-jun.

The man he faced up close had an impression of being somewhat firm, but, to put it bluntly, aloof.

In addition, judging from the momentum of the close encounter,

it seemed that he had a considerable level of skill.

If I had to compare it to Cataclysm Heroes?

“Can you hear me?”

I don't know if it's because of that, but

the man's voice seemed to look down on Seo-jun.

“You must have heard that the punitive force is moving. But still blocking the way of the punitive force...”

The punitive force?

At the man's words, Seo-joon tilted his head for a moment.

Then, when I glanced around, there were countless troops behind the man.

To be precise, a series of groups that looked like knights were lined up in an orderly fashion.

Each of them seems to be at the level of an S-class hunter.

Seo-joon looked back at the man.

Looking at it, I thought this man was their representative.

And as the man said, Seo-joon was blocking the way the punitive force passed.

Of course, this did not mean that Seo-joon alone completely blocked the main road.

I couldn't stop it in the first place,

and even if I blocked it, it was enough to avoid it.

But now, there were large cliffs rising on both sides.

The only way to pass was blocked by thousands of subjugation troops.

Therefore, in order for Seo-jun to pass the road, the punitive force had to stop their march for a while and slightly get out of the way for Seo-jun to pass.

However, if the subjugation party did not get out of the way,

Seo-joon had to go back the way he came.

And again.

“I'm sure you're not trying to make an excuse that you didn't hear that the punitive force was moving.”

The man seemed to have no intention of moving out of the way for Seo-joon.

Judging by the atmosphere, it was a few days before the march of the subjugation party.

It seemed that the marching route was announced in advance. It must have been the purpose

of accelerating the advance of the punitive force and

minimizing the damage to civilians.

Well, it was Seo-jun's guess.

That's why I couldn't know the details, but

anyway, I thought it was a notice in advance and control the road.

The problem is, does Seo-joon have the guts to have heard of such a situation?

In the first place, Aren only said that the situation in the dimension was dire.

He didn't say much about this dimension.

He didn't even explain the simple circumstances, let alone the story.

‘Just help the imperial family.'

And then he smiles kindly...

Of course.

It was also the fault of Seo-joon, who flew straight to the teleport as soon as he was asked to collect cause and effect as soon as possible.

But anyways.

Could you give us a hint as to what the circumstances are?

‘Haa...'

Seojun let out a small sigh inwardly.

It was a sudden situation, but I still had to adjust to this situation.

Even if he didn't know, it was Seo-jun who didn't hear the circumstances, and

it seemed that they were the emperor's army, judging from the direction from which the punitive forces came.

Now you have to farm causal to regain your power and return to Earth.

Even though there was a letter of recommendation from Aren,

there was no need to blush for nothing as he had to ask for help from the imperial family.

But just then

“It is a march of the subjugation force led by the sword master of the empire, Carls. Can't get out of the way!”

sereung-!

Suddenly, the man in front of me drew his sword and pointed it at Seojun.

Spaaaaaa!

The magical power of the sword.

Somehow, it wasn't just to intimidate,

it contained a killing intent that would really kill if you didn't get out of the way.

< Hee hee! >

The mentor shrank in his arms as if he was afraid of killing himself.

At the same time, Seo-joon could not hide his embarrassment.

Are you trying to kill me just for blocking a road?

I couldn't even say that it blocked the road in the first place.

That's why Seo-jun tried to say something, but he shook his head right away.

Judging from the situation, it seemed that the conversation would not work.

Even Seo-joon didn't want things to get bigger.

That's why Seo-joon tried to withdraw, but there was only one.

There was one thing that got on Seo-jun's nerves.

It was none other than the word ‘sword master' among the words the man just said.

Seo-joon pretended to lower his eyes

and looked behind the man who was quietly aiming his sword.

Knights lined up in an orderly fashion.

In the center of it, an unusual existence appeared in Seo-jun's field of vision.

Perhaps that person was the sword master the man had just spoken about, Cals.

And was Carls also conscious of Seo-jun's gaze?

Carl's gaze turned to Seo-joon.

Two eyes meeting each other.

At the same time, tremendous momentum began to emanate from Carl's body.

Ku-gu-gu-gu-gung...!

The momentum that burst out vibrated the surrounding atmosphere and was soon shot at Seo-jun.

And as if he was trying to pressure Seo-joon.

Seo-joon's whole body began to be tied.

but.

“Eh?”

Seojun tilted his head involuntarily.

That would also be the eerie momentum that now entangles Seo-joon.

‘Is that the Sword Master?'

It was because the level was too terrible to be called a sword master.

The sword master Seo-jun knew was none other than a transcendentalist.

Of course, it was a Maginot line that could be called a transcendentalist as a 9th grade job, but a transcendentalist was a transcendentalist nonetheless.

Simply put, the minimum level at which an ant can defeat a dragon.

It was a transcendent level that overturned the 0% probability.

But what is this now...

If it's about the time of the Transcendentalist's claws, will he be able to nod his head?

Seo-joon didn't know how to react to this.

And did he notice Seo-jun's condition?

“......!”

In an instant, a different color began to appear in Carl's eyes.

and at the same time.

“It wasn't enough to block the path of the subjugation party, and to ignore the advice!!”

The man in front of him, who had pointed his sword at Seo-joon, burst into a roaring cry.

They probably didn't know that Seojun and Carls were fighting a war of nerves

and thought that Seojun was ignoring them.

“I will bury that sin with summary execution!”

As expected, the man swung the sword imbued with magic.

Awesome love!!

The man's sword rushed in, scattering an eerie blast sound.

Seojun did not respond differently.

I just raised my eyes and looked at Carls.

And just then.

“stop.”

pop.

With a low voice, the man's sword stopped.

“You have a lot of guts.”

And Carl's voice.

Carls took a step forward and approached Seo-jun.

Then, he slowly scanned Seo-joon's body.

It seemed as if he was trying to gauge Seo-jun's level by feeling the weak power of magic in his eyes.

So little time passes.

food.

“He was a no-nonsense guy.”

He let out a laugh full of ridicule.

Eventually, Kals spoke to the man who aimed his sword at Seo-jun.

“Lerit. Clear the way for this man to pass.”

“Ha, but then the march of the punitive force...”

“I should have just told you to open the road.”

At the flash of Carl's, a man called Lelith flinched.

But that's for a while.

Lerritt bowed his head toward Carl's and said to Seojun.

“Carls-sama was generous. Bow your head and give thanks!”

And at Lelith's words, Seo-joon was momentarily dazed.

Should I be thankful for this...?

“How dare this bastard!”

“I would have told you to stop.”

flinch.

At Carl's muttering, Lelith flinched once again and stopped moving.

Eventually, Carl's gaze turned toward Seo-jun.

Carls passed Seo-jun and spoke softly.

“I have good guts, but luck like today doesn’t happen often. If you want to live by my name, make sure to remember it.”

So, Carls walked past Seo-jun.

After that, Lelith followed.

By the time you get so far out of sight.

The mentor burst out of his grasp.

< You're trying to kill people. What kind of guys are there? Eight! Unlucky. >

Then he frowned and shouted...

well, Seo-jun agreed with that.

Seojun shook his head and moved on.

Let's approach the knights lined up like that!

Like seawater splitting, Seo-joon opened a path for him to pass through.

Seo-joon walked across them.

But why?

Every time Seo-joon passed by, I felt some disapproving glances.

Dare like you.

Or because of you now.

It was the gaze that seemed to radiate the same nuance.

< These are really! >

He

started to run amok in Seo-joon's grasp, as if he could feel that he was also a mentor.

The problem was that

it never came out of his grasp.

There was no need to scratch and make a boil.

not exactly.

Kee Ee Ee El -e ─ !!!

It wasn't even a situation like that.

“......!”

“......!”

The screams erupted in an instant, and the knights flinched.

All of a sudden, they turned their heads in the direction the sound came from.

When Seo-joon also turned his gaze to follow him, it was above the clear sky.

A swarm of hairy flying spiders was gathering there like dark clouds.

“Why are they here...?”

“There must still be a long way to go to the realm…?”

“No way! Did they extend their territory to the vicinity of the capital?”

The sudden appearance of the mysterious creature caused the knights to panic.

But that's for a while.

“All knights ready for battle!”

“Everyone raise your arms!”

The knights drew their weapons in unison at the shouts of Kals and Lelith that burst out in front of them.

At the same time, an eerie speculation erupted.

“Don’t get in the way and get out of the way!”

“If you want to live, run quickly!”

The knights passed Seo-jun and ran forward.

Weiyiyiing—!!

Facing him, a group of flying spiders also raised a dark flesh.

Shu Shu Shu Shu Shu Shuuk!!

And the poisonous needles of long awls that shoot out.

It started pouring down on the knights like black rain from the sky.

At the same time, a series of people emerged from the group of knights.

Eventually, along with the exploding magic, a translucent film was created and wrapped around the knights.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!!

riotous noise.

“I don't think I'll last long...! Wow...!”

“Damn it!”

Seeing the knights coughing up blood, Carls gnawed his teeth and shouted.

whatever you have to do

It was not easy to pierce the shower of poisonous needles.

The feeling of the swarm of flying spiders covering the sky was not at the level of a normal monster.

With a bit of exaggeration, it was because the Demogorgon I met in Italy was on a similar level.

I don't know if he's a real sword master.

It was too much for him to use a sword that was a little higher than the Cataclysm hero.

Seo-joon watched the scene from a distance.

And the mentor who watched it together.

< That... it's probably not because of Kim Seo-joon, right? >

the mentor said to Seo-jun with a meaningful look in his eyes.

Ay no way

Seo-joon shook his head as if he couldn't do that.

However, the doubt that was rising in the corner of my heart could not be erased.

That would also be the case with the swarms of flying spiders covering the sky now.

Shu Shu Shu Shu Shu Suk!

Kwak Kwa Kwak!

“There are too many! I can't stand it any longer...! Big...!”

“How the way...!”

That was when I first met Aren.

Because it was the swarm of flying spiders that Seo-jun was chased by!

“Why the hell are the Letra swarms near the capital!”

Besides, that swarm of spiders actually seemed to be a group that shouldn't be here.

“It is not too late to judge the situation later! You must run away now, Mr. Carl!”

“Nonsense! How can I...!”

“I can't handle those Letra swarms with my current troops!”

“shit...!”

A tense situation.

< What will you do now? >

The mentor asked Seo-jun with tears in his eyes.

After a moment's thought, Seo-joon grabbed Longinus's spear.

< Can you help me? >

“W-wouldn’t that be? It looks like it's because of me.”

More than anything.

“Couldn’t they have been dispatched from the imperial family? Then… you can count this as helping me, too.”

Then you can get some money as well.

< Uh... that's right, right? But now Kim Seo-joon has full power... >

The mentor kept his mouth shut without ending.

Currently, most of Seo-joon's powers were sealed.

Although I was able to use about 5% of my power thanks to Aren, it was only 5%.

That's why it was right to see that he couldn't use almost all of his power.

But 5% is just a percentage figure.

If you look at the absolute numbers, there is a huge difference.

For example, 5% of 100 is only 5, but

5% of 100,000 is 5,000.

At the time of teaching Seojun, even if it was Jecheondaeseong.

Due to causal restrictions, numerically, approximately 98-99% of the power was sealed.

Nevertheless, Seo Jun at the time could not defeat Jecheon Daeseong no matter what he did.

Of course, I gave him a shot with a poisoned banana, but...

that was just a ‘one shot'.

If you fought each other, you could never win.

Transcendence was just such a realm.

And now.

Bounce - Bounce!

Along with the exploding speed of TRP, Seo-jun's new model disappeared in an instant.

< Well... >

Mentor murmured softly at the sight of Seo-jun.

Seo-joon's level was one that he could not dare to approach even among those who transcended combat.

Irina, the director of the transcendent academy

as well as Jecheon Daesung .

And even the observer could not do anything about it.

Like that flock of flying spiders. < Who the hell am I going to worry about… Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!! Kee Ee Ee El -e ─ !!! No matter how many, it was just a number. # It didn't take long for Seojun to wipe out the flying spiders. Above all, with the return of 5% power, all the skills that Seo-joon had learned so far have also returned. It was a completely different state from when he completely lost his power. “What the hell...!!” “Don’t believe me…!” The faces of the Knights Templar were contorted in astonishment at the swarm of flying spiders that were swept away in an instant. "This can't happen...!" In particular, Carl's expression was the highlight among them. Carls was in a state of confusion and was dizzy. He was also called the Sword Master. A high-ranking person who is recognized anywhere on the continent. It wasn't that there weren't people who were better than him, but there weren't too many to count on one hand. But the inaction Seo-joon just showed was crazy... that... that didn't make sense. no, it shouldn't have been. How can that be an inaction that existence can have! Would that be possible with the emperor, the ruler of this dimension? But, literally, he had to become an emperor. But what the hell is that stupid bastard! “Oh, oh, oh…!” Carls didn't really have any thoughts. And there was something else that made Carls jump even more madly. Kwajik. puck! For an instant, a terrifying sound of destruction was heard through the blank mind. where I was looking for something. “Is it because the power is automatically adjusted? It’s broken just right to dismantle.” Seo-joon was holding the body of a flying spider and dismembering it! “……?” “……?” “……?” In an instant, people's faces started to go blank. What did you do that... But how fast those hands are. Kwajik. puck. It took less than 2 seconds per giant! “What is that…?” Carls muttered involuntarily. And as if he had heard that muttering, Seo-joon kept his head upright. And the sound of doing it. “Since I caught all of these, can I keep them?” “......” Carls had nothing to say. “Come to think of it, do you trade monster corpses here too? I need a lot of money...Hmm, otherwise it would be a bit difficult...” Seo-Jun continued. Are you kidding me? I wanted to, but Seo-jun's expression looked really serious! “......” “......” Cals and Lelith were dumbfounded. And the faces of the knights. between them. < Ehh, I really can't live... >

Only the dejected voice of the mentor resonated emptyly.
