Episode 10. Anticipated terror and Angela Lucifer’s
“I’m sorry.”
“I have nothing to say. scram.”
People say that when people get too angry, they become colder.
The other day I screamed and threw the flask bottle.
Of course, that’s a good thing for me.
I bowed my head to Professor Silbec and came out of the office.
Before I took over his body, Adrias wasn’t just playing around, he was occasionally running errands for the professors and collecting pocket money.
And it had just been cut.
But even if it was me, it was worth cutting.
I didn’t do what I was told because of course I didn’t say I couldn’t do it if I couldn’t.
I’m glad I didn’t have a double bath.
But this time, I won’t be kicked out with a loud voice, so I won’t attract attention.
I thought it must be so.
‘…?’
why is everyone looking at me?
“What you looking at? Did you see it?”
I feel a bit of déjà vu.
Trying not to care, I first moved to the library to return the borrowed book.
But even on the way to the library, I felt strange eyes from around me.
‘Really what? Am I sensitive?’
Ever since I met Bahat the day before yesterday, I had become extremely sensitive.
First of all, the first reason was that my identity was almost discovered, and the second reason was that I realized that I didn’t know what would happen because it was a time zone I didn’t know.
‘It was definitely a building that didn’t exist.’
An academy building that I came across by chance on the way back with Lucia after coming out of the Mage Tower.
It was definitely a building that didn’t exist in the game.
As far as I know, there was a graveyard there instead of a building.
‘I barely remembered yesterday.’
It wasn’t important in the game, so I forgot about it.
No, it’s important, but should I say it’s something I don’t have to pay much attention to?
‘The terrorism of the Zefar Church.’
It happened in the past in terms of game time, so I just thought that it happened and moved on.
Because it can’t be changed anyway.
So I don’t know exactly when or why it happened.
But one thing is certain.
‘It hasn’t happened yet and it will happen soon.’
Even if I came over, I came over at a strange time.
About half a year until the start of the game.
This meant that a terrorist attack would occur within half a year.
Of course, there was nothing to go near there, so if I didn’t get caught up in it, everything would be fine.
‘The number of people who die from that terror is really… ….’
I don’t know how many people died, but it was difficult to have one named.
It’s also very close to the playable character.
“Carlos Alven.”
The eldest son of the Duke of Alven and older brother of Diene Alven by 10 years.
In the game, I’ve never actually seen or seen it because it’s the time period after I’ve already died.
However, due to the important characters Diene Alven and Bahat Alven, he was occasionally mentioned.
“ah! Student Adrias Cromwell.”
“hello.”
When I arrived at the library after a complicated thought, the librarian happily called my name for some reason.
“I’m here to return the book.”
“< Conflicting understanding of nature and mana > It’s only one week. You can leave it here.”
hmm week. Time passed so quickly.
…Wait a week?
“Ah, by the way, student Adrias is rumored to have developed a potion this time….”
“sorry. I have something urgent to do.”
I rushed out of the library.
This stupid baby.
I entered Adrias’ body and my intelligence followed his body?
How could I be forgetting that?
I ran aimlessly, but then slowly slowed down.
‘But what can I do?’
When I calmed down a bit, there was nothing I could do.
Yes.
Today was the day Angela’s evolution ended, but there was no way to get into the lab.
then….
“I have to make an excuse.”
I visited the magic material shop in the academy.
* * *
“This is the first time you’ve come to see me first.”
“haha. I will come to see Master often from now on.”
“I’m sure you told me not to use that title outside the lab?”
“sorry. I’m so happy to stop.”
“hmm….”
Charon was in the magic circle lab inside the academy on personal business.
After asking here and there, I managed to find out the location and went to find him.
Karon, who was giving me a strange look, soon nodded.
“Sit down.”
“yes.”
“So what did you come for?”
“Professor, I actually developed a potion. Still, I came here because I thought it was polite to inform them once in a while.”
“You come early. Now that the review is over, did you think it wouldn’t be taken away?”
I’m just throwing a stone fastball.
okay! I did it secretly because I thought you would steal it! okay!
“…ha ha ha. I want to pass the screening and show myself with confidence….”
Of course, he wasn’t crazy enough to tell the truth.
Karon still looked at me with penetrating eyes, whether he knew what I was thinking or not, and then got up from his seat.
“Follow me.”
As planned, I was able to enter the lab.
Charon opened the lab with courtesy mana interaction and the light of the ring.
The moment I was about to follow him, I had no choice but to stop when he suddenly stopped.
“Master?”
“….”
The atmosphere was unusual.
Leaning aside for a moment, I looked inside, which had been hidden by Charon, and I could see the mess inside.
‘Am I fucking late?’
By the way, how did you get rid of the Mana Binding Orb?
Did you evolve and become strong enough to get out of the restraints?
for a moment.
Are you still inside?
Goosebumps ran through my body and I involuntarily took a step back.
Even vampires are powerful beings.
I couldn’t even imagine how strong he would be if he had even evolved.
‘But the probability of success was 55%, right?’
Of course, looking at that mess, it’s hard to see it as a failure.
Still, when I was calculating the odds, Charon took the lead and went in first.
When he entered, I slowly followed him, thinking of running back at any moment.
“dare….”
Charon’s grim voice trembled with rage.
The inside of the lab was spotless, as if someone had made a fuss about it.
Various instruments and reagents were broken and abandoned, and the collected bodies were torn to pieces.
When I thought of the existence that would have caused this uproar, I was very worried about whether I should run away even now.
“Adrias.”
“yes. Master.”
“When was the last time you came?”
“that is….”
I was trying to figure out how to escape from the sudden question, but I didn’t get an answer right away.
“This is the day I went to Binharz National Cemetery six days ago.”
I spat out the answer I barely remembered, but Charon was looking all over the place without even responding.
And after looking around for a while, I asked the question again.
“Did you visit yesterday or today?”
“yes? doesn’t exist.”
there can’t be
First of all, you have the key.
After hearing my answer, Karon finally walked towards the grate where Angela was.
I just watched from a little distance, nervous that Karon would spurt blood and die.
“This mongrel bitch….”
A low rage came out of his mouth.
“Adrias.”
“yes.”
“Have you ever touched Angela’s restraints?”
“doesn’t exist.”
Are you saying I’m crazy?
What will you do when you are released?
…I was eventually released because of me.
“Well, there’s no reason for you to do that unless you’re crazy.”
“If I had touched her in the first place, she would have already killed her.”
“Shut up.”
It looks like you’re feeling uncomfortable.
Well, it’s worth it.
After raising the level of necromancer, the finest materials he was trying to use ran away.
If I hadn’t even used nickel before and thought it was taken away right in front of my eyes, or if I thought that nickel had disappeared somewhere, a fire would have exploded.
The only difference between him and me is that I believed in my characteristic, evolution, and immediately used it, and he cherished it as much as I could and then turned into shit.
Clink!
Charon picked up a nearby flask bottle and threw it.
If that calm Charon is at that level, it seems that his anger has soared to the limit.
“…scram.”
“yes.”
Fortunately, he didn’t take out his anger on me, he just kicked me out.
Looking at the situation, it seemed that Angela had already left.
I don’t know because I didn’t calculate the exact time, but I’m sure it’s been a week since today, so it must’ve been a while since I escaped.
I left Karon alone and quietly went out into the office.
The empty office was dreary.
“Adrias.”
“…!”
I was so startled that my body froze.
Someone was whispering in my ear right next to me.
Suddenly?
“What the hell have you done to me?”
An alluring voice tickled the nape of his neck.
I was so defenseless considering I had just escaped.
Still, I thought I was hiding in the office.
“Look at me Adrias.”
But was the tone originally like this?
Is it my imagination that I feel friendliness rather than hostility in my voice?
For the time being, he was in a position where his life was pledged to her, so he listened to his words.
“under.”
I immediately covered my mouth, which made the sound of air escaping.
Angela, with dark red hair down to the floor, wasn’t what I had known before.
The mysterious color that flows between the alluring eyes and tear points showed off its presence.
The thick, red lips, as if they were soaked in blood, made such an atmosphere even thicker.
Besides, the shabby yet tattered clothes she was wearing now made her look even more bizarre, and there was nowhere to turn her eyes.
‘Of course I will stand up and see.’
There is absolutely no selfishness.
Didn’t he ask you to see it?
“Angela Lucifer. Keep your promise.”
When I met her eyes, I blew the first bread.
“promise? Shouldn’t you explain the situation first?”
“There was no way to cancel the Mana Binding Orb with my own power. So I used a different method.”
It was a lie, but I tried to make a plausible excuse for now.
“You’re asking what the method is.”
“I have no reason to answer. Didn’t I just have to get you out somehow?”
“joy! I always say that you brought it out, but this is what I came out of myself?”
“Would that have been possible without my strength? It doesn’t matter that you came out in the end. If it wasn’t for me, you would have been undead to Charon.”
As I struggled to live, the words came out easily.
The opponent is an existence that can eliminate me with one gesture.
If I die anyway, I have to do something.
“Charon? Are you just calling your master?”
“Is that important now? Anyway, keep your promise.”
“no. It doesn’t pay off to keep all your promises.”
What kind of resin taryeong is here!
I wanted to scream, but I barely held it in.
“Then what are you going to do?”
“I will only half keep my promise.”
“…Do you only keep half?”
I slipped back.
“It’s literally half. I’ll keep only one of the promises I made.”
I tried to turn around and run away before the other person finished talking, but she stood in front of me as if she had teleported.
Angela, revealing her sharp fangs, strode towards me as I was blocked from retreating with an alluring smile.
