I Became a Student at the Transcension Academy

Side Story Chapter 7 - Crazy Stranger (1)

The conference hall was turned upside down.

“That, that, that…!”

“Where is this place!”

Frenzied nobles run with them.

It wasn't just a fuss.

“How dare a stranger insult the imperial family!!!”

“What are you doing! Hurry up and don't drag him out!”

His spirit was ferocious as if he would even kill Seo-joon at any moment.

So is Carls.

So are the nobles here now.

I wonder how this side of the dimension is going to kill people for the first time.

A small sigh leaked from Seo-joon without even realizing it.

Well, unlike Carl's, this time it wasn't an incomprehensible reaction.

The crown prince is the successor of the emperor.

It was the existence of the position next to the emperor.

Since I said ‘unlucky' to such an existence in the face, of course I have no choice but to kill it.

The only problem was that Seojun didn't do that.

“What are you going to do with this?”

< Hey!! >

Seojun muttered softly, and the mentor in his arms looked startled and startled.

A slightly overlooked view.

There, the mentor slapped his mouth and was in a sense of self-doubt.

It seemed that the mentor also came out unintentionally.

Seojun shook his head while looking at such a mentor.

Anyway, the words have already been spit out and can't be picked up.

Now, even if he blamed Wah and his mentor,

nothing changed.

And above all...

it wasn't wrong.

“If you are a stranger, you will take care of yourself like a stranger. I dare not even know the subject...!”

“Your Highness the Crown Prince! This must be dealt with severely!”

So, now I'm talking about how to deal with this atmosphere...

If I apologize, will you accept it?

Or do you just throw it all over?

‘Hmm....'

Just at the time I was devising this and that method.

“stop!”

In an instant, a loud cry echoed throughout the conference hall.

At the same time, the atmosphere in the conference hall, which had been cluttered, suddenly subsided.

A natural gaze.

Cals was sitting there with a serious expression on his face.

And with such Carl's whole body, momentum to overwhelm the surroundings exploded.

It's a long time compared to the transcendent sword master... No, even using the word sword master was embarrassing.

Nevertheless, it was Kals who had skills beyond that of a cataclysmic hero.

The momentum emitted by Carl's was enough to control the atmosphere in the conference room.

“He is a guest invited by me. But what disrespect to you now?”

Carls yelled at the nobles in a voice full of anger.

He wasn't interrogating him either,

because he had invited Seo-jun to the imperial palace and suppressed him.

Of course...

In the first place, this side did the rudeness first.

“I invited you suddenly, but I think I made a mistake because I came to a strange place and messed up.

Cals calmed down the nobles, as if he was forgiving of what he had just done.

But why did his expression frown a little…

.

what though

What more can the party say to forgive?

however.

“Haona, Your Highness! This is something that should not be taken lightly!”

“Yes, Your Highness! The author's actions are a clear insult to the imperial family. This must be strictly governed by the Yellow Law!”

The nobles didn't seem to be like that at all.

And Seo-joon was able to notice at once the reaction of such aristocrats.

Even though Carls is called a sword master and at the same time has a position next to the emperor, he does not have enough power to control the nobles.

“Didn’t I say I was fine?”

Cals distorted his impression at the reaction of the nobles.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

At the same time, a tingling force burst through Carl's whole body.

The nobles were all suppressed by the momentum and kept their mouths shut.

But just then.

“majesty. This is not just a matter of your Highness. Please consider that it is also related to the dignity of the imperial family.”

Someone stepped forward and spoke to Carl.

An old man was standing there.

The overall atmosphere is old-fashioned.

And if that old warrior orphaned orphaned a serpent about 10 times, would it be like that?

Above all, it seemed that the old man was not at all intimidated by Carl's momentum.

There was no change in facial expression.

Seo-joon looked at the old man calmly.

Intermediate courses in the Transcendental Curriculum consisting of introductory-beginner-intermediate-advanced.

To be precise, it was an intermediate level that seemed to have just entered the advanced level.

In a word, he was a talented person who could not be compared on Earth, and was an exceptional talent who could not be easily found throughout the dimension.

That's why Seo-joon knew at once.

That person is the representative of the nobility here.

“Sir Bethel.”

Carls looked at the old man and murmured softly.

The old man called Vettel faced such a Carls with a slightly lowered gaze.

Showing courtesy but not giving in.

In any case, it was certain that the serpent had orphaned number 10.

Carls raised his eyebrows slightly and said.

“I don’t know what you mean, but this incident was completely brought on by me. So let’s just skip this time.”

“If that's what Your Highness means...”

Vettel withdrew without any further objection.

From the start, it seemed that he had no intention of refuting Carl's opinion.

It seemed that he just didn't like the atmosphere of being dragged away by Carl.

Vettel took a step back and glanced at Seo-joon at the same time.

Seojun, who was looking at Vettel, met Vettel's eyes.

Our eyes met for a while.

food.

Vettel laughed and turned her head again.

It looks like it will pass this time.

It was a nuance that seemed to say that if you are a stranger, do not act rashly like a stranger.

< What about that old man? Aren't you more unlucky than Carl? >

At that moment, the mentor's voice came from inside his arms.

With a slightly looking down gaze, the mentor seemed to ask when that was the case.

She was looking at Vettel with her cheeks puffed out.

The only good thing was that the surroundings were quite cluttered and

nobody listened to it because of the small whisper...

Or maybe Bethel heard...?

just as expected.

Vettel's laughing expression hardened for an instant.

It was as if he heard the voice of a mentor whispering like a rare talented person.

But since the only person who heard it was himself, he couldn't say anything.

Seo-joon burst out laughing without even realizing it.

It was so messy, but the situation was sorted out.

“There was a sudden situation, but it seems to have calmed down, so let’s get into the agenda right away.”

In the meantime, Carl's solemn voice was heard.

“The reason for inviting strangers here is simple.”

Eventually, Carls calmly scanned the crowd.

Then, he stopped where Seojun was standing and slowly opened his mouth.

“Currently, His Majesty the Emperor is missing.”

“majesty!”

“majesty!”

At the same time, the nobles shouted in amazement.

Unlike just before,

it was an expression that I never expected that such words would come out of Carl's mouth.

Apparently, the disappearance of the emperor was an outside secret.

It was a natural reaction when I revealed it to a stranger who looked like a stupid bastard.

“Therefore, I tried many times to find His Majesty, but... I couldn't find it in the end.”

However, Carls didn't care at all and continued.

“So I'm going to ask the stranger here for help with that matter.”

After Carls finished speaking, he looked around the crowd once more.

Contrary to the expectation that opinions would be divided,

the nobles did not show a different reaction.

I wonder if he had guessed from the time he said that the emperor was missing.

If you think about it, there was no reason to stop you from helping.

but.

“You can’t blindly ask for help from a stranger.”

The problem started from here.

“Therefore, I would like to give the imperial family assets as well as the empire's budget as a reasonable compensation.”

“What nonsense...!”

“majesty! That is nonsense!”

After Carl's words, the nobles went crazy.

“The imperial family's assets are not enough, so the empire's budget is drawn! Even to a stranger!”

“This is exploiting the blood of the imperial people!”

“It is impossible! Please take my orders!!”

It really lifts, jumps and flies.

It was very spectacle.

He was running more mad than ever before when his mentor had accidentally spilled his words.

In a way, it was a natural reaction.

It was no different from saying that I would spread this and that to strangers I didn't know.

That's why, to be honest, Seo-jun was also suspicious.

Although it is said that along with Aren's letter of recommendation, Seo-joon showed the power.

Now, Carl's words suddenly accelerated.

It didn't seem that much of a difference.

To be precise, the question was whether it was worth spending that much money on Seo-joon.

To put it bluntly, I'd rather put that money somewhere else...

Could it be that there are other circumstances I don't know about?

I guess I'll have to listen to the details to know.

Anyway, if Seo-joon is like this too.

What are the nobles like?

“majesty. I think this is an unwise decision.”

just as expected.

Vettel, who had been listening quietly, stepped forward again.

When Vettel came out, the other nobles kept their mouths shut.

And a word that followed.

“I think it would be the right decision to ask Aren for help.”

At Vettel's words, the other nobles nodded their heads.

And Carls seemed to know that.

He slowly opened his mouth to those nobles.

“I have already asked Aren for help.”

“……?”

Vettel tilted her head at Carl's sudden words.

What nonsense are you talking about...? For a moment, the expression.

As expected, did he ate 10 orphaned snakes?

Vettel immediately understood Carl's words and slowly turned her head toward Seo-joon.

“What did you just say…?”

And Vettel's murmur continued.

As if answering Vettel's question, Carls opened his mouth again.

“Isn’t the result of that help right in front of you?”

“……?”

“……?”

At the same time, the expressions of the other nobles also began to dim.

Carls said as if driving a wedge into such a question.

“He came here on the recommendation of Mr. Aren.”

“......!!!”

“......!!!”

Then, the eyes of all nobles, including you, began to open wide.

Vettel also seemed quite surprised.

Two wrinkled eyes widened.

shock and astonishment.

And stillness mixed with a bit of fear.

It was as if a promise had been made between the silence.

Everyone's eyes turned to Seo-joon.

Seojun met that gaze and quietly spoke to his mentor.

“Is Aren’s position really great?”

< It's the same for Kim Seo-joon when he goes to Earth. No, Seojun Kim is a popular star not only on Earth but across all dimensions! You can't even compare to Aren! >

Of course, in a different way.

The mentor slipped away like a whisper.

It seems that he came out unwillingly even though he wanted to hear it, but

Seo-jun was able to hear it enough.

well anyway

From the moment Aren's name was mentioned, the atmosphere in the conference room changed to silence itself.

And I don't know if it's because of that.

“So from now on, matters related to Your Majesty are left to strangers...”

Carls always had the initiative in the ensuing meeting.

#

Like that, the meeting continued and

Seo-jun was able to come out in the middle.

It was a place to introduce Seo-jun anyway, and

even if Seo-jun was there, there was nothing to do.

Seo-joon, who came out of the conference room, was able to return to the parlor following the guidance of the chief chamberlain.

Returning to the parlor, Seo-joon sat down blankly.

Something... complex situations were taking place.

That confused my mind a little.

Seojun organized each one in his head.

first.

Aside from everything else, there were two things that worked the most.

to regain lost strength.

and returning to Earth.

For this, an enormous causal... that is, money was needed.

And in order to earn that money, I had to solve what was happening in this dimension.

So, the question of what is happening in this dimension.

disappearance of the emperor.

And that the disappearance was done by Beserk.

Kals had mentioned that he had disappeared after the emperor left to subdue Beserk.

‘Hmm...'

Seojun calmly organized his thoughts.

Dragon Emperor Beserk.

It was an apocalyptic monster called Cataclysm itself.

And if that beserk was the beserk that Seojun knew, it was a word that should never have been used here.

Because Beserk was obviously destroyed by Seo-jun's hand.

It was swept away by the collapse of the universe.

No, even if it didn't disappear.

Beserk could never have been alive.

That would be too.

‘I have Beserk's heart?'

Because Seojun had Beserk's intact heart.

That's why Beserk couldn't be alive in any way.

But how...?

Perhaps the concept of Beserk was different from what Seo-jun knew.

Or, as they say, of the same name.

The possibility that the name Beserk is also the same person...

‘There's no way.'

Seojun slowly shook his head.

Of course, it wasn't that there were none.

But that possibility is very slim.

Therefore, Beserk had to be regarded as the Beserk that Seojun knew.

The question is...

‘how the heck?'

It was like how.

‘Hmm...'

Seojun thought over and over again.

But maybe it's because the power of Insight [S] isn't perfect yet.

‘I don't know...'

Nothing came to mind.

And thinking about what you don't know will only make your head hurt.

I guess I should ask Carls more about this.

That time when I wanted Carl to come.

smart.

“May I come in?”

Along with the sound of knocking, Carl's voice was heard outside the

parlor

.

“Sorry to have kept you waiting so long.”

A voice that sounded like something weary.

Perhaps because of that, his face was also slightly stained with fatigue.

Carls slowly approached and sat across from Seo-jun.

Then, he looked around as if he was looking for someone.

“Where are those dwarfs?”

As expected, Carls asked Seo-jun.

But what about small people?

“If you are Amento, you are now sleeping in my arms.”

Seojun looked down slightly at the same time as he spoke.

view looking down.

There, the mentor was sleeping like the world did not know.

I felt like I was tired after speeding up here and there.

“I tried to restore my unfortunate image... but I guess I'll have to postpone that to another opportunity.”

Carls smiled softly.

Apparently, Carls

seemed to know that his mentor, not Seo-jun, had said that.

Seeing Carl's like that, Seo-jun smiled at him... Wait.

Seo-joon's body instantly stiffened.

One thought seems out of place.

It was because it passed through my head.

The figure of Carls looking for a mentor none other than him.

It was because it made me feel so uncomfortable.

It was so natural that he forgot about it, but

in fact, the mentor's appearance was invisible to anyone other than Seo-jun.

Even in the last district, Seoyoon and other team members couldn't see their mentor.

At the same time, the mentor's voice is also the same.

Of course, it was possible because Aren was a first-time student at the Transcendent Academy.

But it wasn't Carls.

No, not exactly all beings other than Aren.

That's why the first mentor muttered that he was unlucky.

It shouldn't have been heard by others.

But still, I heard the voice of the mentor...?

‘What is it?'

This dimension... Something is strange.

There is something Seo-joon doesn't know.

To a mentor who shouldn't be seen.

Even Beserk, which shouldn't exist.

Seo-joon hardened his expression and said to Carls.

“It's a sudden question... but could you tell me more about Beserk?”

Cals was momentarily taken aback by Seo-joon's unexpected question.

But is it because of Seo-joon's firm expression and atmosphere?

Carls also straightened his expression and slowly opened his mouth.

“Actually… I don’t really know.”

“...... yes?”

For a moment, Seo-joon felt like he was losing his mind.

You say that the emperor went missing after going to subjugate Beserk, and you don't know about Beserk?

As Seo-jun stared blankly at him, Carls continued talking as if making an excuse.

“Because the existence of Beserk was actually a legend.”

“A legend?”

“Fairy tales for children to read. We call the powerful enemy that the hero defeats there Beserk.”

To put it simply, the word demon king was called Beserk here.

“A long time ago, the time when the beginning of the world was suitable. It is said that a monster named Beserk went on a rampage... Since then, monsters whose existence in the dimension is at stake have been called that.”

“Ah...”

Seo-joon let out an exclamation involuntarily.

In other words, Beserk was not the Beserk Seojun thought of.

However, Seo-joon could not easily agree with that statement.

A strange feeling, like a tickle in the chest.

Is Beserk really a different concept?

A being in a dimension where you can see your mentor.

I guess I'll have to see it with my own two eyes.

And that means that.

That you have to run on your own feet.

‘Eh, somehow I wanted to go easily.'

Seojun shook his head.

Anyway, in order to regain my strength and return to Earth, I have to earn money.

Seojun asked Carls again.

“So what can I do?”

Then, Carls flinched.

And then he seemed to do a little bit for a while.

“That's true... I'm having a bit of a problem.”

He opened his mouth with a bitter expression.

“Is it a problem?”

Carls hesitated for a moment before opening his mouth again.

“They said they wanted to see your abilities.”

“If it's ability... my ability?”

Carls nodded slowly and continued.

“There was a lot of backlash, saying that it makes no sense to give money to strangers who are completely unfamiliar with it. I tried to convince him by mentioning Mr. Aren... but in the end, I came to the conclusion that I should look at my ability first and judge it.”

Carls gave a self-deprecating smile.

Seojun seemed to be leading the meeting.

In the meeting that followed, it seemed that this was not the case.

I couldn't watch the whole process, but

there was a possibility that I might have been swung by someone named Vettel.

The Vettel I saw at the conference could have done that.

“And...”

Carls swallowed in silence.

He didn't spit it out, but Seo-joon was able to guess what it was.

Perhaps Carls was also not convinced of Seo-jun.

It would have been difficult for them to meet in the imperial palace

if Seo-jun hadn't shown inaction for the first time

and hadn't had Aren's letter of recommendation .

That's why Seo-joon became more and more curious about the contents of the recommendation window.

“What was written on Aren’s letter of recommendation?”

“Hmm... It's quicker to see this than to explain it.”

Cals handed Aren's letter of recommendation in his arms.

Seojun received a letter of recommendation and confirmed it.

A splendid rhetoric was added along with the elegant writing style.

And, excluding such fancy rhetoric, it was as follows to start with the main subject.

“I know roughly what you are thinking.

A bastard with one screw missing.

Are you thinking?

But even though it looks like that on the outside, I can't do anything about it.

It's hard to believe, but it really is.

So, it's better not to think about fooling around.

Well, this isn't a warning, it's advice.

Even so, if you think that you want to do it,

if you think that you will go crazy if you do not do it.

I won't bother drying it.

Sometimes experiencing it speaks louder than words.

But I don't know much about the aftermath.

One last piece of advice, though.

There are many beings who unknowingly fight against him and see blood.

They are difficult beings to explain, but

they are some... transcendent beings that you can't even imagine.

well anyway

Just ask for help.

To be precise, money without money.

Collect all the treasures, assets, and budgets of the imperial family and ask for them.

Then maybe pretend you can't win.

I'm sure he will help you.

Maybe you can hold

back the grinning smile.

Like I said, I don't know what's going to happen to me if I'm bothered.

Anyway, that's a long story, but to sum it up in one word.

All you need is to ask Seojun Kim.

With money attached.

”

.

.

widely.

“......”

After checking the contents of the letter of recommendation, Seo-joon was at a loss for words.

Is this why I told you never to read it?

no, but wait.

Where the hell did you see this as a recommendation?

“I have never seen a being that Aren-nim speaks to this extent. Even His Majesty, who treats her as a baby, went this far...”

However, seeing Carls say that, it seemed that he fell within the category of ‘recommended' as a result.

well anyway

Thanks to that, I had a corner to make money, so it was a good thing.

Seojun calmly organized his thoughts.

to regain lost strength.

returning to earth.

The concept of Beserk and

the secrets of this dimension.

Solving all of these things at once is, of course, cause and effect.

I had to earn money!

“I’ll help you at least once.”

And in order to make money, you have to show your ability first.

Originally, it should have gone smoothly... but

it went a little wrong when a serpentine named Betel intervened.

Overthrowing Asari was also a way, but

the ‘causation' that Seo-jun had to collect had to have a proper cause.

There was also a cause and effect called extortion....

There were many corners where the cause and effect called help could be derived much more than that.

And most of all, it didn't matter.

“Instead, there are conditions.”

Because Seo-joon had no intention of remaining silent.

#

The next day.

Vettel headed to the imperial palace without fail.

On the way to the imperial palace.

“I heard you received a letter of recommendation from Aren. What nonsense.”

Vettel thought for a moment about the commotion yesterday.

The prince suddenly brought a strange stranger.

How absurd it was to say that he would give away his assets out of the blue.

Looking at the tail, I wondered how the prince was roasted and boiled with Aren-nim.

It was clear that the substance was probably a bastard with no ability.

Seo-joon, whom Vettel watched over, was definitely like that.

To be precise, Vettel could not dare to judge Seo-joon's level, but Vettel had no way to know about such a situation.

The imperial palace arrived like that.

“……?”

Vettel was momentarily dazed by the huge mountain in front of the imperial palace.

A huge mountain that was created overnight.

Even those mountains were not one or two.

And people were busily coming and going between those mountains.

Vettel approached slowly, wanting something.

“Monster corpses…?”

Upon closer inspection, it was not a mountain, but monster corpses.

“What is this...?”

At that absurd situation, Vettel looked around for a moment.

“I'm crazy... I'm crazy!”

“Save me!!!”

People were working on something in front of the piles of monster corpses.

Upon closer inspection, they were not ordinary people.

“Imperial Knights...?”

None other than the Imperial Knights.

Among the elite knights called the elite were doing some strange work.

Even the staff in charge of the imperial family's finances were all present.

Vettel caught a knight passing by just in time.

“Lerit.”

“Oh Vettel!”

At Vettel's call, Lelith bowed her head in moderation. A knight

who is the vice-captain of the Imperial Knights and

assists Crown Prince Calth on the spot.

Vettel asked Lelith.

“Now… what are you doing?”

“We are dismantling and transporting monster corpses.”

It was a fact that anyone with eyes would know.

The question is, why are you doing that!

Seeing Vettel's outrageous expression, Lelith opened her mouth again.

“This is what His Highness the Crown Prince directly ordered.”

“You mean His Highness the Crown Prince?”

Lelith nodded.

“That's it...”

And Lelith also continued, avoiding her gaze as if she was dumbfounded.

“That... Her Highness needs money urgently, so we have to sell it quickly...” “

......”

Silence settles down.

Vettel slowly looked away.

In Vettel's field of view, an enormous mountain of corpses was piled up.

And the level of those monsters was also not normal.

High-level monsters that even the knights have a hard time with.

Did you handle this large number alone?

is that bastard?

And that in just one day?

right at that moment.

“Here comes another pile! Hurry up and deal with it!”

Patty pounding.

With an erupting cry, two mountains came into existence in an instant.

“......”

Vettel ascended to heaven.

“Stop that, you crazy bastard!!!”

Only the voices of the members full of screams echoed.
