Became an Academy End-Of-Life Genius - Chapter 141



141 – Arcius – 6

I felt eyes on me. A gaze that I have seen many times and have longed for.

The curious gaze contained a gentleness that could never be forgotten.

So, I immediately raised my head.

Then she was there.

“… ….”

She didn’t say anything. Rather than complaining about why she hid for so long, she just kept her mouth shut and looked up at her sky.

That was the only thing that could be done, and it was the most efficient way.

The sky trembled. The clouds twisted and the wind blew strong. Meanwhile, a winter cold wave suddenly hit him.

The wind was like a sword. It wasn’t a very good feeling to have it enveloping the skin and trying to pierce it.

But I endured.

He could have sorted it all out with a wave of his hand, but he didn’t.

Pure white hair flutters between the eyes. The blue eyes and vertically slit pupils characteristic of polyps watched Katrell carefully.

“You….”

“It’s been a long time.”

He muttered softly to the white dragon, who was looking down with sad eyes.

She landed lightly beneath the snowy field. Without making a single sound, the snow she stepped on with her bare feet was as if nothing had fallen on it.

It wasn’t just that. From the moment Arwen appeared, the surrounding Mana stopped listening.

This is because the original essence of the dragon was to control mana. Therefore, if she wanted to handle mana in front of a dragon, she had to have the same level of restraint.

And he was a being with a suppressing power comparable to that of the dragon in front of him.

If Katrell wanted to, she could take control whenever she wanted. By using magic, he was able to prevent Arwen from escaping, and if necessary, he could make this space his own.

But Catrel did not do that. As he waited quietly, Arwen looked impatient and then opened her mouth first.

“I was here for a reason….”

“Have you forgotten me?”

Interrupting Arwen, Katrel spoke calmly.

She looked at him with wide eyes and shook her head violently.

“You couldn’t have forgotten. I thought only of you every day….”

“Then, do you hate me?”

“That can’t be possible….”

Arwen, who was now crying, carefully approached Katrel.

“Then it’s done.”

We hugged each other quietly. A white dragon’s unique coolness that I haven’t felt in a long time. You can clearly feel her warmth melting inside.

“Okay, it’s done?”

“Do I need to hear more? “If you haven’t forgotten me, haven’t hated me, and are in front of me now, it’s okay.”

“But, I want you….”

“There must have been a reason.”

Cattrell confirmed. Arwen’s eyes widen at her confident tone.

“There must have been a reason for leaving, and you probably decided that it was necessary to hide it from me as well. “Isn’t that why you left?”

“Yeah, that’s true, but I could lie.”

“Not only is it impossible, but even if it were, it doesn’t matter.”

Katrel slightly moved away from Arwen, who was hugging her tightly, and then she pointed her finger at her heart.

“Your heart.”

Then she moves her finger and places it on her own heart.

“Because it is mine.”

**

Wow, this is cringy.

I went out for a short walk and I don’t know what kind of disaster this is.

I struggled to straighten my fingers, which felt like they were going to break at any moment, and cleared my throat a couple of times.

“Big, big.”

“If you’re going to show off like that, just come out. “I’ve been noticing it for a long time.”

At Katrell’s words, I came out of the bushes with a sheepish smile on my face. Arwen stands at me and opens her mouth wide.

“Oh, son?”

“It’s been a while. Mother.”

“D, were you listening?”

“Yes, it just so happened.”

Arwen looked at Katrell and me alternately and asked in a trembling voice.

“Uh, how far?”

“That’s hard to explain…. “I heard one thing.”

I pointed to Arwen’s heart as Katrel had done, and then to my own heart.

And then he said the same thing, following his tone.

“Your heart is mine….”

“G-maaan!!”

Arwen hurriedly ran towards me and grabbed my finger.

I relaxed my stance because it felt like my fingers were going to be broken at any moment if I didn’t stop.

“Did you know?”

“What.”

“Deron was watching!”

“I knew. “I thought you knew too?”

“I had no idea… !”

Arwen blushed and ran to her room. I approached Katrell cautiously and asked her in a voice that would not be heard by her.

“Father.”

“Why?”

“Aren’t you embarrassed?”

“What should I be ashamed of?”

This person is real. I really don’t feel any shame.

Even I got goosebumps listening to it. I can’t believe he could say something like that without any hesitation. And that too without a single drop of alcohol.

That is dangerous. So much so that the reason for my mother’s death could have been a shameful death.

… It’s strange that he read my presence.

Although erasing traces is not my specialty, it does not mean I am inferior. Even those at an advanced level would never be able to understand it, right?

“I’m going to kill you….”

As I was quietly glaring at Katrell, I felt her fierceness and turned my head.

There, Arwen with tears in her eyes is glaring at Katrel. She gathers controlled mana around her.

Blame.

The mana gathered like that is directed to her fist. Arwen immediately got to her feet and lunged at Katrell.

‘Eek.’

I immediately fell away from Katrell. This is because we have been taught since ancient times that fighting is something to watch from afar, not to stop.

Even as Katrel watched Arwen rushing towards her, she stood still. She looked calm, as if she knew her attacks wouldn’t reach her.

Bang!

A loud explosion is heard from Arwen’s fist. Her snowy field rippled and her eyes popped into the air. Her eyes hovered in the air, blocking her vision for a moment….

“Really….”

Through the slowly scattering snow, I could see Arwen’s fist stopping right in front of Katrel’s face.

If she had moved even slightly, she would have been hit directly. But because Katrell didn’t move, her fist also didn’t reach.

Arwen retrieved her trembling fist and glared at Katrell.

“It hasn’t changed at all. You are.”

**

Perhaps due to the sound of the explosion, Bell and Aksi came rushing over soon after.

They looked around at Arwen and Katrell, checked the mess around them, and then walked back awkwardly as if they understood.

If you do that, what will happen to me, who is openly watching?

“What’s going on?”

Katrel, who slightly distanced himself from Arwen, asked Belle.

Belle was Katrel. Because of her natural fierce eyes, she flinched slightly and opened her mouth.

“Large-scale movement of monsters has been confirmed nearby. In relation to that, an explosion was heard here, so my father was able to understand the situation….”

“Tell them that nothing has happened.”

After dismissing Belle’s long message with one word, Katrell tried to turn her head again.

“Now, wait a minute. Father?”

“… Yes.”

“By any chance, what is your father’s name?”

“Dietrich Cardia….”

“That Duntang got married.”

When she calls her father her dun tang, her bell’s shoulders tremble briefly.

“Then we should meet at least once.”

As Arwen tried to leave, Katrel grabbed her hand.

“Can I leave?”

“What is it?”

“I’m asking if there’s any problem even though I’ve been down for this long.”

“How about that?”

Cattrell’s eyes glance in my direction. Arwen read Katrel’s gaze and nodded her head as if she understood.

“Ah, this is okay. “The reason I stayed away from you was to recover.”

“So is recovery complete?”

“No, not yet. “But we’re almost done.”

Katrell’s expression becomes gentle, albeit slightly. If the wounds on Arwen’s body heal, we will be able to see her at the Duke’s house in Philasia, as she used to be.

You must have thought so.

Arwen even asserted that she would have no reason to leave Catrel if she had not been hurt in the first place.

“Did you see it?”

“Of course I saw it.”

However, Aksi and I knew right away that that was a lie.

No matter how strong Kattrell is.

You can’t help but be fooled by this.

That’s because he’s never seen the devil’s magic before his eyes.

However, he could tell that I almost became the devil lord and that Aksy tried to stop me.

A disgusting, foul smell emanating from her wrist. If it’s black, it’s energetic. A magical energy that is different from the energy of mana and the dragon.

Among them, the energy that the Demon King had that was consuming my lifespan was also consuming her body.

Perhaps it was because she stayed in that cabin for a long time or because she smiled bitterly when she saw me. It’s probably because I knew that scar.

Wounds caused by demonic energy, especially curses filled with malice, are not easily removed.

Since it belongs to the Demon King, who is the one controlling the demonic energy, it cannot be easy to solve. Even if she is a white dragon, it will take quite a long time.

This is also a story about when she was completely focused on Hae-ju in the space created for her.

If you go out and wander around like now, all you have to do is block the curse. Perhaps even that is not perfect and the demonic energy may leak out.

Just like that.

The demonic energy she had been forcibly blocking, a small portion the size of a fingernail, was leaking out.

It leaked into the air and tried to take over part of Arwen’s body.

Suddenly.

I didn’t want to see that happen, so I lightly flicked my hand.

Even though its power is halved because there is no sword, it can cut down demonic energy of that size.

To be precise, resistance to demonic energy arose from the moment the demon king was captured. If you can find the blood and cut it like before, you can remove it.

So, if only I had a sword and could check her wounds.

I can completely heal her wounds.
