The Academy Leader is too Strong - Chapter 43
Only Krnovel
After dealing with Canis, I had some free time. I thought I’d take care of some things that came to mind.
I never dreamed that I would come here on my own. Even in broad daylight, it was so dark that I couldn’t see an inch ahead of me. The place I finally reached with the light of the Bible was [Research Lab-301].
“It’s gentle.”
But it wasn’t that scary after seeing it once. It was a large, unhuman thing.
A monstrous hairstyle that is half white and half black. However, the atmosphere feels more mysterious than awkward.
Astral was still unconscious, bound by numerous chains.
“Something. There’s no response.”
I thought it might react like a piece of metal flying into a ring, but it was quiet. There was a piece of metal stuck in the wall, but I didn’t bother to collect it since there was no reaction.
I leaned against the wall and looked at Astral. When I saw the beautiful face with a few cracks, my conditioned reflex reminded me of a nightmare from the game.
He constantly throws stones the size of a car and shoots sword energy with a broken sword.
It is difficult to approach the wide-area magic waves that explode periodically, and all attacks from a distance are avoided. Each attack leaves an afterimage, leading to additional attacks.
It’s funny that this is only phase 1. It’s an incredibly difficult level that you can never clear without a strong named monster.
I decided not to think any more. Because I feel like crying when I think about it.
“Well. It’s still a long way off.”
Come to think of it, I also picked up a few hairs. I wonder if it has any use, but since it’s the body of a transcendental person, wouldn’t it be of use somewhere?
I looked around the floor while I was at it. The hair I picked up last time had a lot of white parts. I was thinking of picking up some black ones too.
I remembered that there was a bracelet made of braided hair among the game items. I thought that if I did something like that, I could make something.
“uh?”
Since the body size is large, the hair size is naturally large. While looking for hair of a certain thickness, I found something strange.
A handful of hair lying in a pile of stones. I thought it was nothing special and tried to pass it by, but I hesitated when I realized that the shape of the stone was sharp.
“what.”
I kicked the stone away and picked up the hair. It was in direct contact with a sharp part, but it was still intact.
I cut the hair with the sharp part of the gauntlet on the back of my hand. Surprisingly, the hair was not cut and stayed in its original state.
“It’s this strong?”
It feels soft when you touch it. However, it cannot be cut by sharp objects. Is it even possible for hair to be this tough?
While admiring the body of the transcendent being, I wondered why the hair was like this and why the roots that held it up were like this. Shouldn’t hair not fall out?
“also. “Hair loss is incurable.”
Something comes to mind. If hair has this kind of defense, why not use it? I’ll think about it later.
For some reason, I didn’t get scared. It doesn’t matter if it lasts a long time. But I have work to do and I also want to take a nap.
If possible, I wanted to sleep comfortably while listening to the sound of winter bells. Should I stop drinking here? I got up from my seat and shook my butt.
-Clang.
“… … .”
A sudden noise sent shivers down my spine. My thoughts expanded in an instant. A thrilling sensation ran down my spine.
I slowly turned my head back. Is there a reason for the sound of chains? The brain, which sensed something with its sensitive senses, immediately thought of the worst possible assumption.
“Phew.”
There was gravel falling from the ceiling. It seemed like some boulder had fallen from there and hit the chain.
Still, just in case, I looked into the astral. I also looked around thoroughly. I recalled my last appearance and confirmed that there were changes.
Fortunately, there was nothing special. She breathed a sigh of relief and turned around. In that short period of time, her entire body was drenched in sweat.
* * *
“Seniors!”
For once, Winter’s face was full of smiles. Winter is not a particularly bright person, so it’s rare to see him secretly smiling.
She was holding the notice handed to her by the bachelor’s office in her hand and was pleased. I looked at her absentmindedly.
What Winter was holding in his hand was a notice that my suspension was being lifted. He handed it to me with a bright face.
The student said, “Shalla shalla.” It meant that he would resume normal classes next semester. He threw it on the table as if he was throwing it away, and Winter’s face turned into a huge grin.
“Are you… happy?”
I’m not sure. Her grumpy face did not change. Because suspension doesn’t mean that much to me.
It doesn’t matter if I do it or not. If I think about how annoying it is, suspension would be fine, but if I think about it, it would be right to just go since I’ll have to go for another year.
“Anyway, even if I stayed still, it would have been released in a year.”
“No, senior. This is to show that it’s not your fault! It’s more necessary than ever when you think about the image of the school!”
“… … uh.”
I didn’t think of it that way. I guess it’s definitely necessary in that sense. It’s true that I’ve neglected my work a bit.
Still, there are a lot of things that keep getting on my nerves, so I can’t concentrate. The same goes for the imperial side and the astral side.
There are no episodes until the holidays. Events may occur, but there is a delay of about three months.
Also, when vacation begins, you have to go on a pilgrimage to a sacred place. Of course, Episode 3 starts when the pilgrimage to the Holy Land begins, so I had to prepare for that as well.
“Ah, I want to lie on the sofa and live comfortably for the rest of my life.”
“… … You are the leader of the church. “Why don’t you become a more sound person?”
“But I’m still working hard to live.”
Winter’s dumbfounded reaction is also laughed off. This kind of break is good, but I guess I should deal with what’s bothering me first.
“We need to increase the number of church members.”
“Hmm? Already? We don’t have any fixed income yet. Isn’t it difficult?”
“About one person.”
“… … “You can take care of that.”
I took from Winter’s words what really hit home. Fixed income. The church definitely needs operating funds.
Other denominations have a lot of followers, so you can’t ignore the money they pay. Above all, we receive requests from all over the place.
Some even sold special products specific to their religion.
“Hey. Just a sec.”
“yes?”
“We also have something that can be used as a product, right?”
“Yes? Us? Uh… … We can’t remain silent!”
There’s no need to look back at a guy who gets upset and misunderstands things on his own.
Mukjong can only use Winter in the first place. This must be proof that Anaye discriminates. Come to think of it, I’m the only one who uses the Lightning Wedge, so I guess I’m the best.
Anyway, we also have something we can proudly sell under our name. This is something I make every single day.
“This is enough.”
“… … It’s a bead.”
“Are your eyes slits?”
What he proudly took out was a bead. Winter’s eyes instantly turned cold.
I wiggled my eyes and handed her the bead. Winter, who was examining her beads with a puzzled look, finally nodded her head.
“Mark.”
“Yeah. Isn’t that worth it?”
Also known as a grenade. If we express it in this way, it would be something like a rune stone.
The power of the glass bead engraved with the thunder horn mark is great. It is a weapon that is as powerful as it is used.
It’s a shame that it’s disposable, but it has its uses.
Now, thanks to the increased stamina, the basic damage is also high. The range is a bit disappointing compared to an actual grenade, but this thing inflicts the rare electric shock condition.
In addition, the bead itself has a vicious configuration that causes it to shatter upon explosion, dealing additional damage.
“surely. You used it often in battle, right? “You also gave that crazy wizard a punch back then.”
“He’s a reliable guy.”
“But it’s hard to get a permit to sell something this dangerous. It can be purchased by assassins or criminal groups. It’s difficult to manage, and it’s also not cheap.”
“You can supply that for military use.”
“For military use. For military use? Huh?”
“You only have to supply it to the Imperial Knights.”
“Oh! That’s okay?”
Only then did Winter’s face brighten. There was certainly no need to worry about the imperial family’s opinion, and verification, provision, and distribution could be handled all at once.
This is pretty good. Winter was quietly muttering, drawing up a business plan.
“But there is a bit of a problem.”
“yes?”
“It explodes only when I give a signal.”
“to?”
Thanks for the stupid but cute reaction. Winter’s stupid reaction continued as she couldn’t follow what I was saying for a moment.
“Then it’s meaningless!”
“You just have to find a way!”
“Find it and then tell me!”
It’s problematic for a priest to react to a cult leader. If I heard it from someone else, I would have been a little annoyed.
For some reason, Winter’s reaction is just funny. How can you get so angry? To the extent of doing so.
“Ehm. sorry. I’m worried… … .”
And then he knew my topic and immediately offered me an apology. I smiled and waved my hand.
“Canis. “Are you there?”
“Yeah~ Always there~”
“Hugh!”
Just in case, I called Canis. I was sprawled out on the sofa when Canis suddenly popped out from behind the sofa.
Winter screamed at the sudden appearance of a first-class assassin. I guess it’s because I’m used to it now, but Canis is still far away for the weak Winter.
Amazing hiding ability. When you call its name, it appears like a ghost. I suspected that it was using some magic related to its name.
I shook off my random thoughts and threw a bead at Canis.
“Please consider this as a stab in the back. Find a way to explode without my signal. “He’s the deputy head of the magic department, so there shouldn’t be any problem, right?”
“Of course~ I don’t know if it’s wrong, but I have to pay it back anyway~ Should I help out a little~ But there needs to be a lot of samples?”
“It’s done.”
I handed over a bag full of glass beads. It was a shame to waste them, but I didn’t have anything to fight with, so I handed them over without hesitation.
You can make glass beads anyway. Come to think of it, Winter could also make the thunder horn symbol.
“why… … why?”
“You can make this mark too?”
“Eh? really?”
“Why don’t you know?”
“You have to teach me so I can understand! Neither the senior nor the goddess are teaching me, so I guess! How do you know… … .”
The accent, which rose gently, fell towards the end. I shrugged my shoulders. Since Winter’s stamina is so meagre anyway, it’s hard to expect much damage.
Still, it’s better to know than not to know. If used well, it will be of great help in escaping a crisis.
“Oh my~ Can all religious believers use that?”
“huh? yes. What if I appoint myself?”
“Oh~”
“Why? Come into the church?”
“I’m interested, but my father is furious.”
Kanis seems interested. He seems to be drawn to the idea of using the rare lightning attribute without much cost.
Of course, this is a reaction that comes from not knowing that the cost is using up a lot of stamina. It’s okay to take that into consideration.
If it’s a guy like Canis, all sorts of ways to utilize him will pop up.
“Then, let’s do research with Winter.”
“Huh? Oh, I have to study for the midterms.”
“huh? “A test is something you take with your usual skills.”
“… … Deceiver.”
Canis laughed at Winter’s axe eyes. Of course, contrary to his laughter, he was getting closer to Winter.
Winter looked at him with eyes asking for help. I shrugged my shoulders.
“You don’t have to work so hard.”
“yes?”
“I’m going to live forever as a priest in our church anyway. Then I don’t have to worry about finding a job, right?”
“uh… … uh. “That too.”
It somehow feels like an innocent child has been corrupted. But isn’t that true? Winter, you will study whatever you want to do.
Rather than worrying about other useless things, it would be better to follow Berenice and run around the playground.
Anyway, if we can’t stop the dark forces, there will be no future.
“hey. Then, you two can study together. If I destroy the chapel, I will do the same to your head. “Be careful.”
“to. “Where are you going?”
“To find a new slave.”
Three months is a long time. I should bring him here and give him a try.
