I went to school for nothing (182)
Lesson 36. How are you feeling right now? – 2
“The crisis seems to have passed, so shall we clean up the devastated land now?”
Attracting everyone’s attention, Yumina landed lightly on the floor and snapped her fingers with a smile.
Then, the kilometer-long thorn stems that pierced the body of the predator spread seeds all over the body of the predator and then crumbled and disappeared.
However, the seeds planted throughout the carcass of the predator soon became tens of thousands of flowers and bloomed.
“No, this is not the time to stare blankly.”
It is a good thing to suck up nutrients from predators and return them to the earth, but wouldn’t it be okay for a semi-amusement to take a concept that is not very helpful to the planet’s environment?
Yes, excavation.
[I got 1325 excavation.]
“As expected, life is one shot.”
The depth of the solitude spell was only about 1,000, but this is the concept that the ancient monster called the predator took lightly at the side of dying!
Ban Yu-Won tried to ignore everyone looking at him with stunned expressions, and landed Lilith back on the ground.
The predator had broken through and had a huge hole drawn into the surrounding forest, and as the group landed nearby, a small hand drill popped out of the hole.
―Wuiyiing
“Yes, I know it’s time to feed you.”
Banyuwon finally fed the concept of excavation to the Abyss who returned after finishing all the tasks.
Originally, there was a limit to growth, but perhaps because the concept and compatibility were so good, he swallowed all the [Excavation] that emits a blindingly bright light because it was so deep.
Then, he completely deviated from the form of a hand drill and changed it to a step drill (a conical drill) that would appear in a cartoon.
A unique shape perfectly suited to the needs of semi-yuwons who value romance rather than practicality.
In fact, there was no problem with practicality as it could be supplemented with the power of anti-yuwon.
“What else is that?”
“Pet drill.”
“Pet drill…”
Even though Abyss didn’t give him a life, he was able to move with his ego, perhaps because he was born in a solitude spell, but Dokgo-yeon was speechless at the sight of him swimming freely in the air like most of Banyuwon’s followers do.
“Spread!”
In the meantime, Yumina’s work was progressing.
Countless flowers that bloomed on the predator’s corpse were transformed one by one into a collection of tiny feather-shaped seeds like dandelions, and then spread out in all directions on the wind created by Yumina.
Some melted into thin air, some clung to nearby trees, and others burrowed into the earth.
It was only in the form of a flower, but in fact it was just magic that efficiently returned the energy of predators to the world.
“Huh, it’s almost over now.”
Yumina, who had returned from her large-scale work, said with a smile, and looked at the Rebellion members one by one to make sure they were all right.
“All of the protection artifacts are broken…”
“By the way, can the professor catch that bug? I don’t know about dimension pirates, but he was originally from this planet…”
“Think about it. Can a senior year solve a world where bugs that can devour a star run rampant? The E-1 dimension has potential and mana density that cannot be called a lower dimension. It was recognized as a special case, so there is no need to worry about this evaluation score.”
She felt the darkness of power peeking out from Yumina’s back, smiling brightly, saying that if Ban Yu-Won’s videos and appropriate reports were accompanied by a proper report, Yu Mi-Na smiled brightly, but Ban Yu-Won decided not to dig deep.
“So what happened to Ryu Cheol-myeong?”
Yumina must have been checking their situation, too. Seeing Ryu Cheolmyeong called by name only, Yuwon Ban answered with a bitter smile.
“No more.”
“Aren’t there any corpses left? I wish I had something to prove death.”
“If it is.”
Mira held out the greatsword she had been carrying to Yumina.
Yumina, who received and confirmed it, was delighted and declared with a clear cough.
“We have confirmed the fraudulent involvement of former professor Ryu Cheol-myeong of the Academy. I promise to prove your damages under the authority of full professor Yu Mi-na and take appropriate compensation measures from the confiscated personal property of Ryu Cheol-myeong.”
“It’s already been seized.”
“I was monitoring because there was no evidence, but I had suspicions from before. I’m also digging up the relationship with the dimensional pirate group, but it suddenly cut off in the middle…”
Yumina put on a cold expression for a moment.
“His collaborator must have guessed Ryu Chul-myeong’s end in advance and stepped out. I can guess who it might be… but unfortunately there is no evidence.”
Even though Yumina and the Union executive team moved as quickly as possible, the fact that the tail was cut off meant that Ryu Chul-myeong was planned to be sacrificed from the beginning.
Well, it was to the point where even anti-yuwon doubted what the hell Ryu Cheol-myeong believed in and ran into it so openly.
“Surprisingly, the more life experiences you have and the stronger you are, the more you do stupid things like this.”
As if reading his mind, Yumina said with a bitter smile.
Shati, who saw Yumina talking to Banyuwon for the first time, was startled, but Yumina’s eyes were only focused on Banyuwon.
“When you are weak, you desperately try to survive, but after you get stronger beyond a certain level, your sense of crisis becomes dull. The more you are pampered by others, the more you overestimate yourself and underestimate your risks.”
Those who have survived several dangerous experiences are mistaken.
The illusion that you are the main character of the world and that you will be able to solve whatever you are going through in the future.
As such experiences are repeated several times, they gradually become bolder and only inflate confidence that they cannot control, and eventually make foolish choices that are directly related to their end.
“Perhaps Ryu Cheol-myeong did the same. In fact, I have succeeded in stealing students from the lower dimensions in this way a few times in the past…”
Yumina put on an indescribable expression and spat out a few words that seemed to be swear words in a small voice that even the ears of a semi-yuwon could not catch.
Looking at it, Ban Yu-won repeated the question he had already asked her several times.
“Why didn’t the president stop it right away?”
“So why is it so…”
Ban Yu-won, who knew that she would deny his words in some way, stiffened at the unexpected reply from Yu Mi-na.
“Why did you let this person go… I want to ask, but I can’t.”
“sister?”
“…Now shall we go back?”
“Previously.”
Just when Yumina was avoiding Ban Yu-won’s gaze and trying to change the topic, someone stepped forward and grabbed Yumina’s arm.
It was sloth.
“Talk to me.”
“huh?”
Sloth’s eyes were shining fiercely.
Yumina blinked in embarrassment, but Slotty closed the gap with her again… and
bowed her head.
“Master.”
““Master?!””
* * *
With the help of Yumina, a master of plant magic, the hole in Jeddah, the star of jade, was filled with green again in just a few hours.
Of course, all the newly filled areas were incorporated into the territory of the Wolftooth tribe, and the Wolftooth tribe, which safely passed all the crises, at once doubled the difference in power with other tribes and firmly established their position as rulers of the stars.
Originally, Banyuwon and his party planned to stay in Jeddah for a few more days to prepare for any possible situation, but to say the conclusion, it was not necessary.
It didn’t take long, and in the middle of the afternoon when the descending body fell, envoys from each tribe appeared waving white flags, and before nightfall, all the chiefs of the mighty tribes of this planet gathered in the territory of the wolf tooth tribe.
The fact that the chief entered the territory of the Wolftooth Tribe on his own was tantamount to a declaration that he would entrust his life to the Wolftooth Tribe.
“We, the Rabbit’s Foot Clan… swear allegiance to the Wolf Tooth Clan.”
“The Monkey Hand Tribe will also admit defeat and be loyal to the Wolf Tooth Tribe.”
Could it be because the descending body of the constellation collapsed and the interference power weakened? The chiefs of other tribes, who appeared in a state of dread, willingly knelt in front of Canid.
This is a ritual of obedience comparable to choosing a master, and because it has far superior binding power than halfway magic contracts, once the ritual is performed, you can never go against the order.
Kanid also readily accepted their surrender because he had the dangerous elements under his control without having to shed blood.
“The head of the Ghosthorn tribe. Is it really your tribe that defeated the descending body of the ruler of the forest?”
The head of the Ghosthorn tribe was the strongest man both personally and in terms of power among the tribal chiefs gathered here, and the harmony of the horns and mane that abruptly rose above his forehead, like a Korean goblin mixed with a lion, was impressive.
‘It seems to have the origin of a divine beast that can’t be pushed by Kanid… What the hell is this planet doing? If you include Kanid and Lucia, there are only three descendants of Shinsoo, right? Predators won’t come out, so I can’t be relieved in the future.’
At this point, I wonder why he wasn’t chosen as the descendant of the constellation… Perhaps he cleverly pulled himself out after recognizing that it was a stone that was discarded in advance.
Canid responded with a confident smile while receiving his sharp gaze.
“My son-in-law Ban Yu-won, who is here with cancer, treated it himself.”
“….”
Everyone’s eyes were focused on Ban Yu-Won.
Strictly speaking, it was not Banyuwon alone, but Celon, the owner of Lucille’s light magic, who had awakened a wild core, was also present, and Abyss, who could be said to be the incarnation of the concept of excavation, was included in the final blow.
Maybe he felt something while watching Banyuwon, but the head of the Horned Horn tribe nodded and knelt in front of him.
“He was indeed a man with an absurd soul. If this man is the future of the wolftooth tribe, then I need not hesitate to obey. I will be with the Wolftooth Clan forever.”
“Eh. Am I the future?”
“At least our children.”
Lucille whispered in his ear ‘quite loudly’ and crossed his arms.
At that moment, all the members of the wolftooth tribe in the meeting place, as well as the chieftains of other tribes who had sworn obedience, cheered in unison.
No, it looks like Ruchel is pregnant right now…!
“…isn’t it?”
“I’m sorry, but I still have to graduate.”
“I’m glad…”
But is it really fortunate?
It is as if the future is fixed after 5 years
.
what? I’m the owner of this right?
Aren’t you a slave?
“Hmm, as a proof of loyalty, I want to give my daughter as Ban Yu-Won’s concubine…”
Don’t add more here.
stop please

The banquet held to commemorate the tribal harmony lasted all night.
Everyone was talking loudly, enjoying drinks and food.
Mira could not and did not intend to blend into the atmosphere.
On the contrary, it feels odd to see Shati, a true outsider, mingling in the middle of the chaos, gleefully chattering and drinking.
Still, I felt like I wanted to be alone right now, so it just happened.
She found a lonely tree and perched on a branch.
“Whoa…”
I sipped the fruit wine with the voices of people chattering in the plaza far below as an accompaniment.
After today’s battle, Mira recalled the contents of Ketra’s report that she and Banyuwon checked.
He belonged to the Crimson Spear even before entering school, and was leading a project to make a certain dimension rich and strong by sacrificing fairies.
And the core of the project is Mira herself, the princess of the fairies.
‘No, it’s different. The moment I entered the school, I became the core of the project.’
The success rate of changeling increases as you make contact with the same fairy and student status.
That’s why Ketra approached Mira in the first place.
For a factor abduction plan using changeling.
After all, they were a relationship full of lies from beginning to end.
–but.
He eventually revealed the existence of the project to Mira, and chose to sacrifice and die in her place.
Ryu Cheol-myeong’s plan to bring in Exodus must have been a good opportunity for him.
It would have been nice to catch Crimson Spear Exodus at the same time and induce action.
The result came true according to his will.
Perhaps it’s not purely because of his feelings for Mira.
It must have been Ketra’s will to die as a fairy.
“Even if it’s a lie, if you can’t throw it away until you die, is it the truth…”
Mira thought about Ketra.
I can admit it now.
The reason she wanted to ignore Ketra wasn’t out of a desire to be loyal to Banyuwon.
‘I guess I just wanted to pretend that my failed past didn’t exist. I just wanted to rekindle my wonderful and perfect first love with Yoo-won.’
That would be the case, because the ending of her first love was the worst no matter how well she tried to wrap it up.
No matter how much Ketra planned to kidnap Mira, wasn’t it the time she didn’t know that she was trying to curse Ketra?
It was a mess, ugly and dirty.
But Ban Yu-won said he would accept them all.
It was thanks to that that Mira was able to truly repent and apologize for her mistakes.
Ketra was able to bow her head before cowardly and alone to finish her atonement and flee to her death.
I could thank him.
“…policy.”
Blindly ignoring something doesn’t mean it didn’t happen.
Pretending not to know the past or guilt, she realized that the shackles that had been clinging to her ankles the whole time she had been living her life calmly had been released the moment she honestly admitted everything.
Perhaps Ban Yu-won knew that and pushed her back at the crucial moment.
Mira became free and her ego was whole and matured.
I was able to love Ban Yu-won more confidently.
“Yuwon…”
I can’t stand it either.
I wanted to be held in the arms of Ban Yu-won right away.
tonight.
I really wanted to give him my all.
-Can I help you?
“I don’t intend to let you ruin this love either.”
―You may not believe it, but I was always rooting for you.
“Noisy gravekeeper.”
Mira snorted and stood up from her seat.
He stroked his coveted black hair and smiled coquettishly.
“As long as I can drag a man into bed, I can do it now.”
