I Became A Flashing Genius At The Magic Academy Chapter 148

I became a flashing genius in front of the magic school 148

35. School competition (6)

White Yusul and Zeliel moved to their seats. A private space with few people and quiet where you can concentrate.

Between them was a table made of high-quality wood, on which was placed a soul chess board inlaid with precious crystal.

As Soul Chess is the best brain sport in the magic world, it appeared as a gimmick in many dungeons, and people competed against each other as a bet in various situations.

Okay, so I guess it’s not a big deal to play soul chess just to make a bet… … .

‘Soul chess for me?’

Zeliel was fiddling with the chess pieces with a slightly more relaxed expression than before.

Of course, even though it has been released, it still has an expressionless expression.

‘You don’t know anything about me?’

Zeliel, the daughter of the chairman of the Star Cloud Company, is a genius girl who received the qualifications of a high elf at the age of her teens and entered the starflower tree magic school at the top of her class.

and… … .

‘Grand Master of Soul Chess.’

It was a level that could safely be considered as having achieved the highest level in Soul Chess.

Of course, even among Grand Masters, there were different grades depending on win rate and experience, and Zeliel was still young, so although he was in the lower tier, he was not at a level where he could compete with the skills of a student.

If you think normally, you win.

There is no choice but to win.

Because I am a grand master.

But, I wasn’t sure.

Keep in mind the 0.1% possibility.

‘Why did you ask me to bet on soul chess?’

No matter how much I thought about it, it didn’t make sense that Baek Yu-seol didn’t know his own chess skills.

By chance, Baek Yu-seol did not hear about the reputation of ‘Grand Master Zeliel’, and by chance, he decided to bet on Soul Che

Are you betting?

And that too with such a large stake?

‘No, absolutely not.’

There’s something up there.

Nevertheless, accepting this bet… It was because I was confident of winning.

The oath of magical power is absolute.

And in this oath, there were no rules other than soul chess.

No puns allowed.

Soul chess can only be competed based on skill, so other tricks cannot be used.

Then there is only one possibility left.

‘There is a possibility that Baek Yu-seol is better at chess than me.’

I have heard a bit about his chess skills. He had heard that he had won against Stella’s best Soul Chess player named ‘Adman Athalek’.

As Adman Atalek held the honorable position of being number one in Stella’s school, his skills were at a semi-professional level no matter how bad they were.

They said they won overwhelmingly against him… … Baek Yu-seol’s skills are undoubtedly at the level of a professional athlete.

‘On the same level as me, or better.’

Take a deep breath and then exhale.

You must never let go of your heart.

No matter how confident my opponent was in my chess skills, I trampled all my competitors with overwhelming skills even in the world of true professionals, and even won the title of Grand Master.

As long as you keep the skills you have honed so far to play soul chess with the soul of ancient Carmenset, you will be able to do it as usual… … You can definitely win.

“You seem to have a lot on your mind. “Are you scared?”

Baek Yu-seol said playfully, rolling the soul orb with his finger.

This soul orb contained within the pendant was also proof of the modifications she had made so far.

“… no. are you okay.”

The game is a single game.

With just one play, your fate is decided.

“Then, shall we start right away?”

* * *

“Phew… … .”

As White Yusul and Jelliel began playing soul chess, Anella came out and leaned her back against the wall. Her whole body is covered in sweat as she moves her feet quickly and looks after him.

‘Ugh, isn’t it too much to ask me to prepare for soul chess…? .’

Recently, since Anella’s identity was discovered by Baek Yu-seol, she has been obeying his words as much as possible.

It wasn’t because he destroyed his own abilities and even had the ability to kill.

‘The ability is… It still doesn’t work.，

After casting [Nightmare’s Second Coming] on Baek Yu-seol and failing, for some reason his abilities completely disappeared. It was a pretty strange feeling.

It felt as if half of my existence had disappeared.

‘Was this ability really that important to me? … .)

but.

Without this ability, it would have been quite a pain in most of the missions I had undertaken so far. Aether Wall, which can delve into the other person’s heart.

Thanks to his deceptive nature, which is one of the few in the world, he was somehow able to survive even with his limited abilities.

‘Ugh, what on earth happened…? … ?)

Now that the ability has completely disappeared, it will be a cold meal if you go back anyway. No ス1. It was always a cold meal, but now they’re going to get kicked out… … ?

I quickly threw away the terrible thought because I knew very well what a dark demon who lost his affiliation would end up wandering the streets.

‘If you get kicked out… Do I have to eat cannibalism to survive?

The dark magician survives by absorbing the blood of wizards. But Anella is direct.

I have never committed an act such as killing a person or eating a corpse.

I simply survived with the blood transfusion packs provided after completing my mission.

A life of not having a penny in hand, barely replenishing nutrition once a day with supplied blood transfusion packs, and surviving every night in a pile of buildings that were almost like ruins.

It’s already been 20 years since I’ve lived like that, and there’s nothing left. If you get kicked out… … You will have to wander the wilderness waiting for the day to be hunted.

“Ugh. That’s what I’m going to do here

It wouldn’t be bad to make a living by running a bread shuttle… … .”

Of course, that is not why he stayed with Baek Yu-seol.

‘Don’t you want to go back to being human?’

Very fascinating words he said the other day.

If someone else had done it, they would have laughed. Because there was no way to turn a dark demon back into a human.

If other dark demons had heard, they would have just laughed. Because there was no dark demon who wanted to return to being human.

But this case was very special.

Baek Yu-seol was truly a being who could do anything, and Anella was also… … Because I really wanted to go back to being human.

‘It won’t be easy. You are a complete dark demon, and to get it back, you must sacrifice considerable effort and pain.

but.

If only I could do that.

‘You can go back to the way you looked, from your teenage years… ‘You can start your life again from scratch’

It was a fascinating word.

Baekyuseol did not provide proper evidence. He didn’t even utter such an easy word as the fact that he had once turned a dark demon back into a human.

It’s just that it’s possible.

I can do that.

‘instead… … You are my eyes and ears. ‘Do you accept it?’

I think Anella nodded without realizing it.

I don’t know why.

Is it because there is nothing I can do to leave him anyway?

‘I’d rather start a new life here… …

So can we really be happy?

“ha.”

Anella patted her sore shoulder. Even though he became a dark demon, his naturally weak body was not repaired.

Well, I guess it got a little better. Because when I was a human dying from a disease, I couldn’t even walk.

Anella cannot use magic properly and her physical abilities are extremely weak. And even her abilities were sealed, so

Even if you get caught by a Stella student on your way out, you will be put to death.

‘what… … ‘No one can figure out my identity.’

With that in mind, the moment you turn around to get some rest.

Hot!

“you.,,

Someone touched her shoulder.

“Tsk…!”

There are very few people worth talking to here. Anella instinctively jumped back and clenched his fists.

If necessary, the seal of dark magic is lifted… .

*… … Come to think of it, you don’t know how to do it, do you?’

How did you unlock the sealed dark magic?

“Hey, there’s no need to be so guarded.”

“… what?,,

When Anella showed a wary expression, the other person raised both hands in a playful gesture of surrender and took two steps back.

The other person was a man with bald-white hair and red eyes, and the energy pulsing within those pupils was familiar.

‘Dark Demon… …

“okay. We are the same species, right? I was disappointed that I found out late. Where do you belong? “If you’ve joined Stella, you probably have at least one spot.”

Anella thought for a moment, then opened her mouth.

**… … I am infiltrating under the orders of Black Knight Black Kingdon. Don’t interfere with the mission. Unless you want to invade the Black Magic King’s territory.”

”Whoa, calm down. I don’t think so. “I’m in a similar situation as you.”

He has a name tag hanging around his neck

I tapped the necklace. The name ‘Ka Baren’ was written there.

Jin Myung-ilス 1, I doubt it is a pseudonym.

“Do you see this? I’m on the management staff for the school competition. There are a lot of places we can go. Oh, is there a place you want to see? I can show you around?”

“it’s okay. “Because I’m busy.”

“okay? It’s a shame… … . “I wanted to show you something really interesting.”

“funny… thing… … ?”

“okay! Since it is of the same type, it is being shown specially. In Magic Survival

Something very, very fun is going to happen!”

Anella twisted her pursed lips.

Honestly, I’m not interested at all.

Just because they are black magicians doesn’t mean they are all the same. Acts committed by dark demons of different affiliations… … It was just a distant story.

but.

Isn’t it obvious that something a dark demon would do at Stella Academy?

‘terror’

What kind of terrorism is it?

Terrorist incidents by black magicians are no longer the same as in the past. A little more intelligently, he would carry out a terrorist attack that would engulf the magic world in one fell swoop.

‘… … ‘I don’t even know about white snow.’

It’s an opportunity.

A chance to gain Baek Yu-seol’s trust.

Here, we find out what the dark demon is trying to do and inform him.

A dark horse who must endure someone’s pain, drink blood, and repeat disgusting acts in order to survive each day.

Human life is now tiring.

She made a firm decision and looked Kabaren straight in the eyes. Twist your lips as mischievously as possible.

“Please guide me. “It’s fun, so I’m quite looking forward to it, right?”

“Good, good! I really wanted to show this to someone too! Haha, let’s go right away! Let’s go, let’s go!”

Anella made a promise to herself as she followed Kabaren, who was leading with an excited, strange gait.

‘I’m definitely going back.’

It was small, but I felt happy in small things.

Back then.

* * *

“ah… …

Jelliel looked at the chessboard with blank eyes. Incredible results unfolded before her eyes.

‘The King has fallen.’

By the words of Baek Yu-seol, my king.

It collapsed.

‘how… crab… … ?’

It was difficult to accept the results.

I definitely did my best and thoroughly attacked my opponent by mobilizing all the experience and strategies I had accumulated so far.

however… I couldn’t do anything.

I felt like I had been stripped naked and thrown around. The other person clearly knew all my moves, weaknesses, and even secrets.

This was more humiliating than being naked.

Zeliel was faithful to his intellectual notions, with almost all sexual notions castrated, so he

Having all my thoughts read was so embarrassing that I wanted to bite my tongue.

I had to admit it.

That he has better numbers and strategies than me.

but… … .

For Zeliel, who had always believed that he was the smartest and that he was the one who stood above everyone and controlled the chess pieces, this was a fact he could not accept.

‘… It’s just a game of chess. Make up your mind, Jelliel.’

I tried to keep my expression as calm as possible, but I couldn’t stop my pupils from fluttering.

“I won.”

Baek Yu-seol spoke with such a calm and relaxed expression that it was hard to believe that he had just played an intense game of chess.

“So, the promise will be fulfilled? what… I will also keep the secret. As long as you keep that promise, I can tolerate this kind of manipulation. Oh, and I’ll keep this as a gift?”

He placed the soul orb back in the pendant.

I got up and put it in. This is an item that can be used at any time. At the very least, you can use it as an entrance ticket to meet the king of the elves later.

“I’ll just go. The Magic Survival competition is starting soon. Were you a participant too? Don’t be burdened and cheer up. Because I won’t touch you while I’m there. Oh, and this is a gift.”

Baek Yu-seol placed something that looked suspiciously like a piece of a tombstone on the table.

“It may be a valuable item to you, so please keep this in mind.”

When Baekyuseol finally left, Jelliel, feeling empty in his heart, slowly leaned back in his chair.

defeated.

In return, you must fulfill the terms written in the magical oath.

It’s a bit absurd, but it’s a promise that hurts Zeliel the most.

[First, do not love your father.]

[Second, if the first clause is impossible, do not see your father for three years.]

[Third, if even the second clause is impossible… … Love others.]

A person’s emotions are not something that can be easily changed.

Especially, love.

In other words, the first clause is impossible, so the second clause must be fulfilled… … .

My father, for three years… ?’

Zeliel stroked the magic oath with trembling hands.

Both the first and second are impossible.

However, the third clause also… …

There’s no way it’s possible.

I’ve always lived a life just for my father, and now there’s no way I can fill that position with someone else.

‘What should I do… … .’

She bit her lip tightly and held back the tears that threatened to fall. She was emotionless to begin with, but for some reason, today her head was spinning and her heart was pounding.

White snow theory.

He told himself… They gave him the harshest punishment and left.
