Became a Dark Merchant in the Academy

chapter 36



36 – Anzeroth_2

Building 5, where the club rooms are located, is not far away.

In addition, I often went to Akari’s club room to play, so there was no reason to get confused.

That’s how Anzeroth was able to stand in front of a certain door.

It was in front of the door of the magic alchemy club room.

“…”

Swallowing saliva.

Soothes the trembling body.

Then he quietly opened the door.

A rumbling sound rang out.

At the same time, a chuckle was heard from inside the club room.

It was a familiar gesture.

“Sung Hyun-ah, are you here? Listen!! The improvement you asked for… Ange?”

It was Akari.

She greeted the guests with a smile, but when she realized that she was not the person she wanted, she changed her expression over and over again, from a puzzled expression to a displeased expression.

It was a surprisingly colorful change.

As expected, it wasn’t the Nise Akari that Anzeroth knew well.

“What’s up?”

The way he spoke was also dry.

“For a moment… I wanted to talk to you.”

But if she was going to back down that much, she wouldn’t even come in the first place.

“That story again? I’ll take care of that later, so why don’t you go back today?”

“No, we need to talk now.”

Not yet.

I don’t know what’s missing, but it hasn’t come yet.

Then this was the only chance.

“Akari, you really—.”

So I took a deep breath into her lungs.

She stared at Akari, her sweetheart, her best friend, and was about to raise her voice just like that.

Akari’s expressionless expression began to change in an instant.

Hope, joy, affection, and other positive and blind emotions began to mix.

Still, if I had to express it in one word, it seemed like it would fit.

Faith.

“It’s weird, I’m worried that you don’t seem to be the usual you…”

“Are you friends with the manager?”

It’s creepy.

Goosebumps spread all over my body.

Goosebumps spread from the back of my feet to my head in an instant, and my body began to tremble.

The reason was the voice of someone who had just heard from behind.

“Seong Hyun!”

Her own friend, Akari, had a very bright expression on her face, but Anzeroth couldn’t help it at all.

‘What, what’s there?’

Who didn’t tell you?

The greatest fear among fears is the fear of the unknown.

That was right.

The fear filled only by imagination was the greatest fear.

It’s coming. Coming.

He’s coming.

I don’t even know what it is.

I don’t know what kind of face he has.

Seeing the name being called, it was certain that it was a human, but I doubted whether it was okay to call such a fearful being a human.

Angelot was paralyzed with fear.

“Are you okay?”

But unlike Anzeroth’s fear, what came from behind was a very kind voice.

‘Ah…’

It was the kind of voice that would ease anyone’s tension just by hearing that voice.

A thick hand came up on my shoulder.

“Hee-ik”

Anzeroth let out a nasal murmur of unbearable horror.

“By the way. He can’t stand his guests like this. I’m also curious about the fact that the manager is strange. Shall we go inside and talk?”

But as if he didn’t care about that, the hand on his shoulder gradually wrapped around Anzeroth and began pushing Anzeroth’s body straight into the magic alchemy circle.

I felt that the door to the magic alchemy club room, where I hadn’t felt anything before, was now opening its mouth with something ominous and terrible.

“Ah, no, I…Later…Talk…To…Ah…Akari that…But…Will…?”

Anjelot struggles not to enter her and asks her friend Akari for help and looks at her with sad eyes, but Akari doesn’t even give her a glance.

I was only looking at the man called Seonghyeon.

‘Ah… Kari?’

“Will the manager allow it too?”

“Yes. If Seonghyun wants it.”

The door closes.

The way out has disappeared.

There were 2 people and 1 person in the club room, not 3 people.

**

I didn’t know her identity.

Her name is Angerot Nise Akari’s friend and best friend. She’s in class 1-K. Had left

She did remember her, yes.

That was all.

That’s why I wondered if this incident was an extension of that.

She continued to bother her when she was teased, so she tried to dispel her misunderstandings and gently distort her memories.

She was busy with her work on Akari Nise and preparations for that upcoming event, but she was not even a named character, so she had no time to pay attention to her.

Of course, it was a different, more comfortable response than usual, but since I don’t have two bodies, it was an inevitable choice.

Even if I erased them one by one later when I had more time, I had to do that for now.

‘Look at this?’

But I couldn’t do that anymore.

She was interesting.

What was interesting was her behavior.

At first I thought it was just a coincidence.

Even if they offered water or provided snacks, they might not be thirsty or want to eat, so I thought so.

But that was also the case with subsequent actions.

When I tried to use a skill to do something, it strangely escaped.

It can’t be seen clearly, but it’s as if he knew it from the beginning.

So, in order to experiment with her, I asked her to drink water using Akari, but she refused to do so, and when she tried to give Akari another drink, she talked about it strangely and took time to induce her not to drink.

That’s why she wanted to know something, but looking at her actions, she didn’t.

She had no way of knowing what was happening only in this club room in the first place.

So she thought it was strange.

That’s why she thought it was interesting.

That’s why I was able to guess.

I don’t know, but I know.

It’s like predicting the future.

‘Future Wisdom…’

I’m not sure.

It could be because I’m not feeling really well today, or it could be just a coincidence that I avoided my skills.

In addition to that, Akari Nise’s friend, who has no reaction to the direct gaze, which is his inherent temperament, and was called Angerot, had never been seen in the original work.

Of course, I don’t know everything about the original work, and I’ve only seen about 100 episodes, and I’ve only seen one or two reviews, which are summaries, so I forgot it, or it could be because I’m a character who appears later.

So I’m not sure.

But it was worth experimenting with.

And there was no guesswork.

It was a supernatural world.

Generally, mana ability possesses one of three systems.

Typically, about 90% of martial arts mana abilities are of this type.

Next to that, about 9% of magic-type mana abilities are of this type.

And about 1% of healing type mana abilities are of this type.

This is not something that the mana ability can decide on their own like choosing a job.

It was decided at the time of birth.

However, sometimes there are people who do not follow the basic 3 lines like a mutant.

That is the supernatural world.

The supernatural worlds were those who possessed one of the three strains, plus special powers.

For example

Something like the miracle of that S-class saintess in the 7th Republic of France who said that whatever she wished would come true.

Something like the severance of the Heavenly Demon, one of the S ranks of the 17th Federation of China, that says nothing can reach it.

A representative example is the slash of the S-class swordsman of the Japanese East Army Alliance (Yamato-Emishi), who is said to literally cut down everything.

Well, it’s not that all psychic worlds have that much power, but because there are so few individuals and most of them have unique and irreplaceable powers, they are considered valuable talents in each country.

That’s why the supernatural realm is really right.

If you have future foresight or similar powers…

‘Then I must obtain it.’

And even if that wasn’t the case, now that I think about it, it seemed like it could be used as the last opportunity for Akari Nise.

Does not have time mean algebra?

There’s no need to spend too much effort on trivial things because the bigger benefits are right in front of you.

After organizing my thoughts like that, I signaled to Akari to leave for a while.

“Ah… I remembered something, but I’ll go out for a while and come back.”

Akari reacts immediately.

It was an awkward performance.

But it didn’t matter.

“Ah, then I’ll be gone too. We talked a lot… I don’t think we should interrupt the club time any more than this.”

Anzeroth, which responds immediately, she raises her body as Akari Nise tries to leave.

He looked at me with a glance and was extremely wary of being left alone.

I signaled to Akari again.

“It’s okay, my errands will end soon, and Ange can be in the club as many times as she wants, so it won’t be a hindrance.”

“…But”

“It’s okay. Are you okay. Anje is my friend, so Seonghyeon will understand, right Seonghyeon?”

“Of course. You’re a friend of the manager.”

“But…”

“It’s okay. I’ll be back soon, so wait for me.”

Dissuade Anzeroth.

Nise Akari sat Anzeroth back in her seat.

Nise Akari quickly left the room after that.

Anjerot stretched out his hand vaguely, but could not reach it.

An awkward silence fell quietly in the magic alchemy club room where only the two of them were left.

“You said you were a friend of the manager, right?”

And I was the first to speak.

“…Yes.”

Then it was Anzeroth who answered with a small trembling voice.

It looked like a frightened kitten.

“I am concerned about what you said earlier… Is the general manager strange? Is there any reason you thought so?”

“No…that…was an empty word. It really is nothing.”

“Please feel free to tell me. I am your junior.”

“…”

“It’s okay. My mouth is on the heavy side, so I will never tell you even if the manager asks.”

However, Anzeroth had no answer.

It was like an expression of will that he would never talk to me.

‘I’m completely on guard.’

Of course, I knew that, but it was just too sad that I didn’t answer properly.

“Ah, is it because it sounds like the manager talking behind your back?”

“…”

“Are you nervous? Then you can drink some water and talk slowly.”

I handed Anzeroth a cup full of water.

“Okay…”

And Anzeroth is about to reject it right away.

[Unknown Lv.22 Is activated.]

[A little out of all awareness and cognition.]

But I can’t avoid this.

Aiming for the right timing, the concept of rejection was distorted.

Then Anzeroth reached for the cup as if possessed by something.

And drink…

“!?”

-Clang

The moment water is about to enter your mouth.

It was Anzeroth who seemed to have come to his senses, opened his eyes wide, and immediately threw the cup away.

“Why is that?”

I smiled brightly.
