Became a Third-Rate Villain in the Hero Academy - Chapter 323



323 – Time is Running Out (1)

When dinner time was almost over, everyone from each department returned to the mansion.

Everyone gathered in the lobby on the first floor of the mansion.

Academy faculty and staff followed the instructions of Head Professor Locke, who was in charge of the department. They moved quickly under Locke’s leadership.

However, the atmosphere of the outsiders was unusual.

Oliver spoke to Fiat with a frown.

“You bastard… Hey, black panther. Let’s meet again later. “I haven’t lost yet.”

Fiat snorted and responded.

“If you did it right, you are no longer from this world, kid.”

Fiat asked Maximin, who was standing nearby.

“Isn’t that right, Maximin?”

Fiat was a dark elf over hundreds of years old, but he looked like he was in his 20s.

Therefore, the current situation seemed like a woman in her 20s speaking informally to a middle-aged man in his 50s.

Mak Si-min seemed to find this situation amusing and answered with a light smile.

“Hmm. Honestly, yes. Black Panther, it looks like you care a lot about him.”

Maximin gave Oliver a look.

“Oliver. Ms. Black Panther is still a tough opponent for your abilities, so just give up. Didn’t you say this to Theo earlier? Avoiding it is one way.”

Maximin’s words hit Oliver right in the face.

However, Oliver is not a man who meekly walks away just because he has been hit hard.

Oliver said in an angry voice.

“Ah, Maximin Seonbae. You didn’t use any artifacts. It’s completely different when you use it. “It will be at least 100 times stronger than before using it, right?”

“What would happen if Miss Black Panther also used the artifact? Black Panther Yang’s artifact is one of the few new artifacts on the continent. No matter how skilled you are at using artifacts, Oliver, it will be difficult for you to handle it.”

“Ah, Mr. Seonbae. You need to know what is long and short. You also said it, Seonbae. “He said he wasn’t as strong as me when he was my age.”

“Black Panther Yang is a master of practical combat who has honed his natural talent for hundreds of years. “I don’t want to see Oliver die.”

Suddenly, all people’s eyes were focused on Oliver and Fiat.

Fiat raised his finger and pointed at Oliver.

“Artifacts cannot be used.”

She moved her finger back and forth from side to side.

“If you pick up artifacts, you little one will die. But I must not kill you.”

“That’s a bit funny. “A murderer who could fill this mansion with the corpses of the people he killed would say something like that?”

Fiat said, standing next to Theo.

“Then Theo Lin Walderk will be in trouble. “I don’t want him in trouble.”

Oliver tilted his head.

“······? What did this old monster do wrong? “Black Panther, when did you even think of such a thing?”

“That’s right…”

“Well, what?”

Fiat said, lowering her head slightly, as if she was embarrassed.

“Because I am going to become his wife. That’s why I shouldn’t kill you, kid.”

“What… What? Wife? “Your junior’s?”

Oliver looked at Theo and Fiat in turn, as if he was at a loss for words.

The other people in the lobby were the same.

Everyone except Taylor and the Light Acolytes who had seen Fiat’s passionate courtship opened their eyes wide.

“Well, what is it? I didn’t hear it wrong, right? “Black Panther…Is Theo’s wife?”

“I’ve heard it before. “The story is that the black panther of the empire will become the wife of the person who defeated her.”

People looked at each other’s faces and whispered.

Theo had a calm demeanor on the outside, but on the inside he felt like he was dying.

‘······f*ck. What day is today? ‘I passed one difficult moment and then something happened again.’

I convinced Irene and took a breather, but Fiat dropped the second bomb.

Theo quietly rolled his eyes and checked the status of others.

‘······Life is not easy.’

Irene seemed shocked, her mouth wide open.

Mak Si-min also opened her mouth without dignity.

After a while, Mak Simin, who finally came to his senses, asked.

“······ Mr. Theo, is what Ms. Black Panther said true? “That Miss Black Panther is your wife.”

Mak Si-min’s eyes were unusually trembling.

That’s right, he had made up his mind ever since Theo took the family treasure [Demon Sword]. He said he would make sure to marry Theo and his daughter Piel. Due to various adult circumstances, she could never send Piel as her concubine.

He even told Theo directly about his intentions.

“······.”

Theo quickly turned his head to come up with an appropriate answer.

However, no answer could come to mind to overcome this situation.

There was not enough time.

No, even if I had enough time, I don’t think I would be able to come up with something to convince everyone here.

When the thoughts reach that point.

‘······I can’t help it.’

Theo chose to attack head on.

“Half right and half wrong.”

Mak Simin narrowed his eyes and asked back.

“······What does that mean?”

“Fiat is not my wife. ······Not yet.”

“······!”

Mak Si-min was startled. Everyone else was so surprised that no one opened their mouth.

Theo continued his speech without missing the opportunity.

“Fiat has decided to help eliminate [Turning White]. The biggest purpose of my life is to eliminate everything related to [Turning White] From this world. At that time, I smiled and promised to take Fiat as her wife.”

Mak Si-min revealed his true feelings.

“······To your original wife?”

Theo shook his head.

“Nothing is set in stone. Right now, I just want to focus on getting rid of [Turning White]. “Isn’t that right, Fiat?”

Fiat nodded.

“Yes. It doesn’t matter to me whether it’s my wife or my concubine. “It’s enough if I can just live as Theo Lin Walderk’s woman.”

“······.”

Maximin looked at Theo in silence, then opened her mouth again.

“······Hu, I understand. I knew Theo was great, but I’m seeing him again. “I never thought I would have defeated that black panther.”

Mak Si-min’s words were sincere.

‘······Theo is no longer a being that can be judged based on rank.’

Maximin is a strong man who maintained the second place in the continental warrior rankings until his retirement.

No matter how old he was, he had no confidence that he would win in a fight with Fiat. Currently, Fiat has the new [Eater], So the probability of losing was higher.

Theo answered calmly.

“It was just luck. “The swordsmanship that Sir Maximin taught me was very helpful.”

Mak Si-min laughed. He might be sugarcoating, but he was nice to hear.

“Don’t say that. I’m just a retired back room guy. “Anyway, it’s been a while since we talked so much, so I’m hungry.”

Theo used Maximin’s words exactly.

“Yes, I heard that the meal is almost ready even without that. Mr. Taylor?”

Taylor, wearing a stylish suit, came forward and spoke to the people.

“hahahahaha, the meal is just about ready.”

Clap, clap, clap-

As Taylor applauded, people from the inner kitchen brought out food. These were people hired by Taylor.

······And so dinner began.

Theo thought as he put food into his mouth.

‘······I guess I should eat quickly and run away.’

I felt stinging eyes from all over the place.

If you get caught, you’ll be in a lot of trouble.

I didn’t want to do that now. Anyway, as time passed, I was only able to answer 100 questions about 10 times.

“Please don’t worry and eat. “I’m going to take a walk.”

After Theo finished eating, he left the mansion immediately.

* * *

After getting out of the mansion.

Theo ran at full speed.

Until he was completely out of breath.

It ran like hell.

How long did it run?

“Gasp, gasp, gasp….”

A rough breath came out of my mouth.

But I felt a little relieved.

Recently, I used to take physical training lightly, saying that I mainly focus on energy training.

Theo took a short break and then repeated his run at full speed.

He lifted his wrist and looked at his watch. Approximately an hour had passed.

‘Okay, this is enough for physical training.’

Theo found a suitable place to practice energy again.

Just then, a large tree came into view. Theo sat cross-legged under the large tree and closed his eyes.

─Please guide me today, Nei.

─And so on. Hmm, training outside like this is different and nice. The moon also rose beautifully.

─Then, will the probability that the Moon God will look at me increase?

─It won’t be like that. The moon floating in the sky is just an image. The moon god is not a being bound by an image or anything like that.

─It’s difficult. I’ll just practice. If you do it, won’t you watch it? There is also Ney.

─That’s right. It’s been a while since I spoke properly. First, let’s start by circulating energy.

Theo began to capture the energy flowing from every corner of his body and circulate it.

Approximately 10 minutes have passed.

─Open your eyes, child! A being with tremendous energy is approaching this place!

Nei said hurriedly.
