Chapter 39
The Reincarnated Person Became A Professor At The Academy 39
39 – Imperial Swordsmanship (2).
I shatter Namgungsega.
That’s been my only thought from the beginning.
But how to shatter him is the problem.
“What should I do to break him and make a name for myself?”
The best way is to expose their weaknesses, collaborate with the government, and push them aside.
That’s good, too.
“There are other ways, though.”
In matters like this, it’s best to leave it to the experts.
And I happen to have a fairly good relationship with this expert.
Even if it’s more of a one-sided attachment.
“You’re going to shatter Namgungsega?”
As soon as I explained my job, Yoo Eunchae made a strange expression. It was a look that said, “Can you really break him with just that?”
“But isn’t that enough?”
“…Oh, yes. That’s apparently all you’re doing.”
Yu Eun-chae, with an incredulous expression, heaved a deep sigh.
“Well, considering how great the master is, I guess such thoughts are possible.”
Hmm—she mumbled, crossing her arms and lost in thought.
Initially, she had questions, but gradually, she was becoming more and more interested.
“Wait, come to think of it, isn’t that the item Nam Gungsae is digging up right now?”
“Don’t speak of things you know alone.”
“If that gets unearthed, it could mark the complete downfall of Nam Gungsae, making it the perfect time. But to bring down Nam Gungsae, cooperation with the government is needed…”
Thwack.
“Ow… W-why did you suddenly hit me?”
She winced as he flicked her forehead.
“Because you’re blabbering about things only you know.”
“Well, I still have a few ears to listen, you know.”
“Is your innate ability really that remarkable?”
“Yes, it is. In this world, there are creatures that immediately come after you if you mention specific words.”
“Is the territory the entire Earth?”
“Not exactly the entire Earth. It’s called the Inwamagyeong, the origin of the Academy’s ley lines, and where the traitors of humanity gather. Apart from that, it’s mostly true.”
“Heh.”
Could one really train their innate ability to such an extent? Well, I wasn’t in a position to speak about someone else’s innate ability.
The innate ability I possessed, Yeongeok.
When that was reinforced once more, eternity gave me a new power.
The bloodline Abel possesses.
The brainwave Heo Yoonji possesses.
I gained a power similar to that.
Using that as an excuse, I asked the headmaster if he could install Yeongmaek for me.
“But are you really going to expose only Nam Gung-se’s weakness?”
“Do you think I’ll handle things so quietly?”
“Destroy Nam Gung!! Ugh!”
“Why are you shouting like that?”
He says, plugging his ears.
But Yoo Eunchae continued in an excited voice.
“There are people who will do this with me.”
“People who will do this with you? Who are they?”
“I really hate it, but now is the best chance.”
There are only two people whom Yoo Eunchae hates so much.
Sunwoo Hyun, Shin Yura.
Only those two.
“Sunwoo Hyun. Shin Yura. We have to get them involved!!”
“Do the Genes want to destroy Nam Gung?”
“Yes. Sunwoo Hyun would rather take the lead. They’ll gather their forces together.”
“Is there any power?”
“Well, there are those who are like children of darkness. They are gloomy characters.”
At that moment, Yu Eun-chae began to gossip.
“Seon Woo-hyun may seem cold and composed as a psychopath in his daily life, and he may be a worthless guy, but still, I think he needs to be eliminated just like Nam Gung.”
“…Is that so?”
It was a furious remark.
It was accompanied by tremendous hatred. How much grudge could have led to this extent?
“Did the two of them date?”
Come to think of it, it’s still too early.
It’s common to fall in love at first sight when you land in this world.
When things are good, that is.
“Your eyes are suspicious.”
“So, is that why you wanted to take the Genes with you?”
“…Huh? Wasn’t that the reason you told me?”
No, I was planning to go alone.
“…Are you that strong?”
“No, not to that extent.”
Even I can’t take on Nam Gung Se-ga alone.
Nam Gung Se-ga has fallen, and risen again.
But the power of that family remains unchanged.
The landlord is in a difficult situation… Well, it’s absurd to be unmanned at the pinnacle.
“According to Nam Hye-rin, there seem to be quite a few guys left.”
At the very least, two in a difficult situation.
I can somehow handle one, but more than that is impossible.
However, there is a way to catch the tail.
I was thinking of bringing Heo Yoon-ji, whom I met before, and giving Nam Gung-se a good beating.
“Do you want to expand your business?”
If you’re going to expand, it’s better to do it aggressively.
“Excluding the students, what about members of other clans?”
“That would be difficult. Even if they belong to another clan, they try to maintain a good relationship outwardly.”
“What about the Iron Blood Sword Clan?”
“Do you want to use the Iron Blood Sword Clan?”
“I think I can use them.”
It feels close.
However, considering the actions the Iron Blood Sword Clan showed last time, the probability seems very high.
“Alright then.”
“…Can you bring in the Iron Blood Sword Clan?”
“It seems possible.”
I recalled the first time I saw the head of the Iron Blood Sword Clan not long ago.
◈
It must be because of the unification battle.
Those who came to the banquet seemed to be prominent figures.
A party after the unification meeting.
Many people attended there.
Originally, I had no intention of attending, but my thoughts changed a bit.
It was right after receiving a request from the principal and seeing Nam Gung-ga-ju.
“Well, it’s fortunate. If Professor Han Seo-jin hadn’t come, many would have left, wouldn’t they?”
“Aren’t they the ones leading this family?”
“Rather than building connections with such banquets for them, self-discipline is more important.”
“As expected, there is no normalcy.”
It’s also a characteristic of those who hold the family head position.
Although they are in charge of the family’s power, it’s a fact that they all are skilled in martial arts or magic, having gone mad with it.
“Their appearances are quite glamorous.”
I haven’t been in this world for long, but sometimes I feel faces that have appeared on the internet or in newspapers are watching me.
I sense Abel nearby is tense.
“That person is called Geomseong. Currently, he holds a high position, but soon he will become the highest rank.”
“That person is the family head of the magic god, Shin-i-seol-nim. She was the first female head of the family and has exceptional magical skills.”
“The person with a black dragon drawn on the bandage on the right hand and an eyepatch with a crimson pattern is?”
“…The family head of the Am Yeong Jo Ga.”
“Jo Ga-eun is like that too. Is it a characteristic of Am Yeong Jo Ga?”
“…Embarrassing, but yes.”
“Really, these are the ones who should be embarrassed to show their faces.”
“Is he the teacher of our Gaeun?”
“……!!”
Abel felt a shock beside me.
And there was only one reason for it.
The person we had been gossiping about just a while ago appeared right next to us.
“Yes, I am the professor in charge of Gaeun’s studies.”
“Hmm….”
He looked at me as if measuring me up.
But what could he see?
Even the principal couldn’t assess me properly, let alone someone beneath him.
“You seem to have some skills.”
“There are a few moves worth bragging about to others.”
“Is that so? But it’s unexpectedly rough. From what I heard from my daughter, the professor has a straightforward personality.”
“I may be a bit rough with those trying to compete with me, but our students’ parents are a bit different.”
They are the financial backbone of the academy.
Even if I show daring moves within the academy, there’s nothing to worry about.
Performance.
Because I have overwhelming results.
—
However, they are different.
Those who support the [Academy].
In other words,
“They have the money.”
They are individuals who can legally squeeze money.
Is there a reason to not be kind to such people?
Of course, the moment they try to test me, I have to show them who I am.
“Wow, this person is different from what I expected, quite surprising.”
“I also didn’t expect this person, so today’s party should be enjoyable.”
“What do you mean by that?”
“You seem more knowledgeable than I thought…”
It felt bothersome to make an enemy out of them.
For example, memories of past grudges come to mind.
They repay kindness tenfold and grudges a hundredfold.
“You seem more sinister and dangerous than I thought.”
“Is that so?”
A mocking tone.
The bandage with a black dragon drawn on it wrapped around the right arm, and even though he can see, he wears an eye patch to conceal himself.
“It’s quite ridiculous how he’s trying to hide.”
I have a rough idea.
How has this person been living?
“This, this. Our professor seems to have outstanding insight.”
He passed by, giving my shoulder a light tap.
I had been raised in the household of the head of the Dark Shadows Guild for a while.
“People from such families, they all must be at that level, right?”
“…Yes. However, I believe the head of the Dark Shadows Guild is somewhat weaker.”
“Kyung-ji?”
“I heard he’s at the highest level of the initial transcendent stage.”
“Is that so?”
Must be a truly sinister person.
As Abel’s superior, I replied.
[Change that information immediately. He might be someone who can overcome walls with some incentive.]
“…!”
Abel’s eyebrows twitched.
He still can’t manage his expression. There are only people watching us right now.
‘I guess adding three more climbs up the cliff later should do it. Oh well.’
