Taking admission for nothing (232)
Lesson 45. Preparing for the founding festival – 7
She wore a shimmering bandage all over her body, and a gray robe over it.
Every time the purple eyes barely revealed through the bandages wrapped so tightly that it was difficult to recognize the face shimmered, a vast amount of concepts that could not be captured even with only one eye was revealed and disappeared repeatedly.
It was her distinctive voice that made it possible to tell that she was a woman.
However, the enormous concept embedded in the bandage was hiding her identity physically and even in the realm of magic and spirit… If you look away even now, there is a possibility that you will not be able to recognize her.
He had already heard that there was such a mysterious being among the full professors.
Clio Hecate is a being called “The Prophet Who Decides Destiny,” and is now an advisor at Ulrike Prominence.
And…
“Nine.”
“Amazing.”
With a face that wasn’t surprised at all, she let out a voice of admiration.
Perhaps she had guessed that the moment he met her, he would recognize her identity.
“It wasn’t that there were no hints at all… but to break through so many barriers and reach the truth at once.”
Saying it’s a barrier, she gropes for the bandages covering her body.
She gestured to check if there were any holes, but she knew that there were no such gaps, and Ban Yu-won also knew.
And it was also an act of affirming that she was the one who came as a reinforcement with Aneri and other Level Force members when the Orc Wave came to Earth.
Why did he come to see Ulrike, but he still hadn’t grasped the situation properly, but Ban Yu-won decided to show his courtesy first.
“I was grateful at that time. But how can someone become a full professor at the academy?”
“It is the same principle as namelessness. It wasn’t my body that was there… You guessed it, right?”
Well, since it disappeared so suddenly, I guessed that it must have used some unusual trick.
Of course, that’s not what Ban Yu-won wanted to ask.
“It is, but… Professor Yumina couldn’t come on her own at the time.”
“It’s natural because she doesn’t have freedom.”
“Could it be that Professor Yumina requested instead…?”
“No no. She and I are separate. Because the purpose is different.”
Then, does that mean that Yumina was unaware of No.9’s true identity?
However, it is natural that the professor in front of him is also the last-minute guidance professor who sent the Orc Wave to the Earth of Ulrike Prominence.
Now that he came to the point where he even doubted her true intentions when she had come to help him.
When Ban Yuwen narrowed her eyes, she trembled weakly and smiled.
“You have a lot on your mind. You are not the time to cover your enemies. Let go of all doubts and use all that is available.”
“It’s always easy to get a stomach ache from picking up and eating without thinking.”
I didn’t make an appointment like this, but he suddenly showed up, grumbling, leaning against the sofa where Ban Yu-Won suddenly appeared.
He was pretending to be calm, but at this moment, he was a bit nervous thinking that he might be facing the biggest crisis since he entered the academy.
A situation you can’t control. An opponent who doesn’t know whether it’s an enemy or an ally.
Maybe… I don’t know if I should take out all the concepts that Koigo has been saving.
“Excellent. It would have been nice if my disciple had that side as well. No… things wouldn’t have turned out this way.”
As Nine lightly lifted one hand, the teapot on the table in the corner of the room started to boil.
“What brought you to this place today.”
“Wait a minute, I was originally going to meet Ulrike Prominence senior today.”
“That’s right. You know that he can no longer be patient and wants to have personal contact with you. That’s why we guided you to a safe meeting place.”
A stunned expression crept over Ban Yu-won’s face.
“As a result, I was caught by the professor.”
“Exactly.”
“Isn’t this just a hoax, not a prophecy?”
“I have never prophesied. I just move to make things happen the way I want them to.”
Now, she is saying that the fact that she stood by Ulrike Prominence’s invasion of Earth and came to him in the form of Nine to help Banyuwon on such a topic were all actions for her own purposes.
What happened as a result of the invasion of Earth?
Strengthen Earth’s security Strengthen Ban Yu-Won’s power Meeting with Moo-Myeong and Nine.
And the precious mother and the annoying but precious older sister begin their full-scale actions…
‘…if we assume that Ulrike Prominence invaded the Earth with this person’s will mixed in.’
No, actually it would have been.
No matter how single-celled she was, this was so dramatic and reckless that she couldn’t do it unless someone encouraged her.
If the professor in front of you… Clio Hecate moves Ulrike Prominence from the back, isn’t that what he intended from the time he accepted Ulrike as his disciple earlier?
‘Then her real intention is to change the Prominence family or the entire Teenage family… or did that go too far? There’s no guarantee that our lesser older sister will subvert Prominence properly.’
Ban Yu-won screamed inwardly and scratched his head at the feeling that his brain was complicatedly confused.
I already have a lot of work to do, but I can’t believe there’s another problem to worry about.
I just wanted to leave this place right now and quietly go to my room and fall asleep.
However, as if she had expected such a reaction, she manipulated her magic and poured the perfectly brewed tea into a cup and placed it in front of my eyes.
“I understand your feelings, but for now you have to be patient. Even with that irritation, there is still information to be gleaned from me.”
“Haaaaa.”
A desperately annoying person.
Perhaps that tone of objectifying even the situation in which she is included is related to her trying to hide her identity?
“Whoa.”
He sighed and cleared his mind.
Anyway, there is nothing wrong with what she said.
Even if she is the enemy of Banyuwon, having the opportunity to talk openly on a one-on-one basis is definitely an advantage for Banyuwon.
It seems that the opponent will not come out with an armed demonstration.
If that’s the case, then all she has to do is to thoroughly analyze everything about her with Ban Yu-Won’s proprietary patent Yu-Won-Gong and the prayer sword.
“Okay then let’s get down to business.”
Ban Yu-won said, pouring the tea the enemy gave him into his mouth without hesitation.
Just like Nine said, they were enemies or allies, and it was Ban Yu-Won’s own expression of intention to devour whatever he saw.
“The main point.”
The bandage that covered Mira’s mouth twitched as if she liked the bold movement.
“I don’t think the purpose was to reveal the identity of Nine. I think there must be a reason for calling me at this time, isn’t it?”
“Oh sure. It makes me want to reward a smart kid right away.”
Drinking tea with Ban Yu-Won (Ban Yu-Won realized that he was still far from himself as he watched the tea flow naturally through the bandage without a hole in it), she said.
“But I cannot give you the right answer right away. Because I can’t intervene this time, and you have to recognize the importance for yourself.”
“A masquerade? No, that’s not it…”
Ban Yu-won’s eyes were gently closed.
It’s something ‘nine’ can’t help.
It wouldn’t be a masquerade, so there was only one answer.
“Special competitions against clubs.”
There was no voice to answer Ban Yu-won’s words.
But that was enough for him.
In fact, Ban Yu-Won was deeply involved in this special club competition from the beginning of its design.
A competition held in each abandoned dimension by receiving applications from clubs of a certain size.
This is a tournament that is perfect for academy students aiming for God, but at the same time it is a dangerous tournament that is different from simple special activities.
The abandoned dimension is a space where all kinds of monsters thrive and even the environment is severely altered by causing overlapping waves.
No matter how many people with the ability, it was dangerous even if the majority worked on the purification.
…even more so if there is a traitor in the majority.
“The live broadcast is your idea, right?”
“I reached an agreement with the president through your student council president.”
“If you do that, you must have expected that there would be an even more rampaging group, right?”
“Yeah, I’ve laid the plate this far, but there’s no way it won’t come out.”
Early Semester Rebellion Channel.
Ban Yu-Won, along with his colleagues, had a good evaluation of the dimensional pirates he encountered due to the irregular phenomenon that occurred inside the tower.
That was one of the triggers, and the Rebellion channel was able to grow smoothly, but on the contrary, the dimensional pirate group Exodus, who was beaten by the fledgling freshmen, began gnashing their teeth and targeting him.
While encountering the Crimson Spear, a group of pirates from another dimension, or colliding with Prominence, their impressions have faded, but they have never forgotten their existence.
“The situation where I, the prey of the video being broadcast live, stuck out the nape of my neck to make it easier for me to bite. If Exodus finds out, they will have no choice but to run.”
“It was really reckless and bold…. I’m going to prepare for it, but I’m looking down on them. ‘Constraints’ alone are not enough.”
“…”
In the heavy silence, Ban Yu-won calmly emptied the remaining tea in the cup.
and got up from his seat.
“Thanks for the advice. I think I heard everything.”
“Was it helpful?”
“yes.”
Ban Yu-won bowed his head and left the seat.
Instead of holding him, Clio Hecate threw a strange greeting.
“Looks like you’re doing well.”
“…?”
I looked back inadvertently at the greeting that made me feel uncomfortable, but at that time the door was already closed and even that door disappeared without a trace and a stone wall was formed.
If I hadn’t experienced it earlier, I would have thought I was possessed by a ghost.
[Master, why did you bother calling the master at this timing?]
Lilith finally spoke to him after leaving her territory.
Ban Yu-won replied simply.
“It must be because what will happen in the special tournament is under conditions similar to the situation I am in right now.”
[Similar conditions… a teenage family?]
“Right.”
The answer came quickly, perhaps because it was a release that shared most of the concepts with Banyuwon.
He shrugged his shoulders, expressing an affirmation to the answer given by his family.
“We already knew that Exodus had a teenage family attached to it. Professor Hecate must have warned me not to neglect the special competition by focusing only on the masquerade.”
As a bonus, he secretly informed me of his intentions.
If it is not his misunderstanding, she is hostile to the teenage family.
She is famous for accepting only the elite belonging to teenage families as disciples.
It’s too obvious that she’s trying to make herself a chess horse, so I don’t like it, but if Ban Yu-won’s intuition is right, she’s not the enemy.
At the same time, if there’s one thing she realized, it was that she couldn’t see through all of her numbers.
‘You weren’t a prophet either. It seems that not everyone knows.’
Relieved by that fact, I knocked on the door that appeared in front of Professor Hecate’s room before I knew it.
Through the wide open door, the figure of a young lady who was restlessly waiting for his visit was revealed.
“Oh come on. I was waiting. Come inside.”
[It smells like a vulgar female.]
‘Don’t imitate Ruchel.’
Ban Yu-Won, who entered the room while paying attention to Lilith, soon realized the identity of this room.
Previously, when I had to work with Mira without informing others, I used the Artifact Manufacturing Department’s practice room.
In fact, it was a similar concept to a private room where only representative students certified by a full professor could enter, but this room was Professor Hecate’s version of such a private room.
Like Mi-ra and Ulrike, Ban Yu-won felt that he was being loved by great characters.
So if you ask me if I’m happy about that, I’ll shake my head with all my might…
“I think we can have a quiet conversation here, just the two of us. How is it? It’s quite cozy.”
“Yeah, well… I guess it shows off his personality well.”
Mysterious artifacts decorated everywhere Golden decorations reminiscent of ancient Egypt.
I don’t even want to ask what the purpose of the crystal ball in the center of the table is.
“Actually, I didn’t call it because I had a big intention.”
I know.
To put it bluntly, Professor Hecate was the main dish and you are the dessert.
“As your junior knows, we will compete in a special match with each other’s honor and wishes. Until then, not being able to say hello properly is not only so desolate, but also lacks dignity. That’s why today… ah… today…”
Ulrike’s voice cut off as if he was reciting a previously prepared script.
Ban Yu-Won looked at her with a puzzled expression and noticed that her gaze was fixed on his neck.
Both fists clenched tightly against a reddened face.
It was only then that he realized that he was wearing a kiss mark around his neck.
That means it’s not just Ulrike we’re facing right now, but also Hecate we met earlier…
[That’s why even the professor deserves admiration.]
‘Because I’m begging you to be quiet now…’
Banyuwon sank.
Can it be said that it is fortunate that Ulrike sank with more force?
