I Became an Academy Overpowered Dual Swordsman

28 – Ancient Devil Slime



When I came out of the historic site and got into the jeep, the sun was rising. Have you been at this site for half a day? It was a surprisingly fun experience. I don’t want to feel it again.

“You’re really not hurt anywhere?”

“Yes.”

It was there until just now, but when I tried to show it, it was already cured with super regeneration.

“They say that a mature tree recognizes the cotyledon first… I feel like I really want to kiss you.”

“I’ll decline.”

When we returned to the village, the residents at the entrance were waiting for us. When I heard the story, he even slept next to the entrance on a mat.

“Sister! That and Mage. How did it go?”

At the words of a colleague, Yewon looked around and said.

“What about your father?”

“Here it is.”

As if his expression didn’t make him think he’d caught the slime so quickly and returned, he just thought he had failed to catch it at all.

“It’s okay. It’s enough that they both came back safely.”

“I thought so too…”

I showed you the loot I got from killing the Ancient Devil Slime.

“They caught me within 30 minutes of entering. It took more than 12 hours just to go back and forth.”

“…!!”

How should I explain the chief’s expression? Relief that we returned safely. They were really laughing and crying, mixed with the joy of finally being freed from the slime.

***

After the incident was settled, the head of the Beasts Association appeared with the chief and talked with the chief, who was sad when he didn’t appear anymore.

I wasn’t particularly interested in what they were talking about, so I just went to a bar and ate chicken.

“Eat slowly. I’ll pretend.”

The daughter of the chicken restaurant said with a smile.

“You don’t know when you’re going to eat chicken like this, so you should eat a lot.”

“Don’t be sad about that. Wizard! You must come to our village again.”

That’s right! Because I won’t pay for chicken for the rest of my life. I’m the daughter of the owner of this house, so that’s possible. So when you want to come over, come over.”

A wizard is treated like this in a village where he was ostracized. I don’t know what to do

Around that time, the head of the village and the president of the association entered the chicken restaurant as if they had finished talking.

“Father. What were you two talking about?”

“Just. Solving the past. Received a promise to support the village. I will be quite busy in the future. More than when I was catching slime.”

“Whoops. Yes.”

On the other hand, I felt the eyes of the head of the association and the manager, so I turned my head and looked.

“…Would you like some chicken?”

“Heh heh. He doesn’t eat greasy food as his digestive power is poor as he gets older. Can I sit next to him instead?”

“I see.”

He said this with a serious expression on his face.

“As you may know, the Ancient Devil Slime you defeated was a top-notch, different beast among S-class monsters. Even when an S-class wizard went 22 years ago, it was only sealed.”

“That mage must have been a bit weak, didn’t she?”

The association president laughed out loud at those words.

“hahahahaha! I was about to say that you are overwhelmingly strong among S-rank wizards. I’ve never seen such a strong wizard in my entire life.”

Hey, that’s 10,000 mana with just one blade blast sword. In addition, since I picked and captured only the monsters that gave me fraudulent skills, it might be natural in a way. The president of the association added this as if he still had something to say.

“And among S-class wizards, he’s overwhelmingly good.”

“Line?”

Why are you saying this all of a sudden?

“Sounds good.”

“No. I didn’t ask for the meaning…”

“I see. I’m sorry.”

I think I know the reason.

As of now, there are not 7 S-rank wizards, but 8 if I include myself.

Of these, there are only three S-class wizards who helped the protagonist in a good position: Lee Tae-san, the head of the Witchbeast Association, Kim Hyun-ji, the principal of Delaon, and Lee Ye-seul, the teacher of Seohyun.

The rest either stick to hermit life or become the final boss’ henchman in a villainous position. From the perspective of the president of the association, the SS seems very reassuring, but they must be worried that they will not fall into evil.

“You must be tired after holding the Witchbeast. I don’t know if I should ask you this question… What is your goal?”

If I told you honestly that it was a remake of a novel, would you be treated like a crazy person?

“Just, peacefully graduating from school.”

The president of the association said this with a satisfied smile.

“Puff. hahahahaha! Ah. I’m really enjoying every day because of you. I’m sorry for suddenly asking a question that’s hard to answer. Enjoy the chicken.”

“Tongue, president of the association. It’s not okay to say that you’re going to die.”

“Chuckling. I’m sorry. Manager.”

“But really. It’s not that I don’t understand the president’s heart. As you said, it’s true that SS has revitalized the Witchbeast Association. Everyone is working hard following the example of SS. The same goes for me.”

And then he said this out of nowhere.

“Could SS-nim be an angel who came down from the sky? An angel holding twin swords instead of wings?!”

“…”

It was difficult to say something, so the president of the association spoke up.

“Did you drink too much yesterday?”

“What are you talking about! Then I couldn’t even drive.”

“Then it’s more of a problem…”

“Yes?!”

***

After eating that much stuffed chicken, I got on the limousine of the head of the village entrance.

“As I said before, please keep the fact that I am an SS a secret.”

“I know. I even wrote a confidentiality agreement with the president of the association, so there won’t be any leakage.”

Did you write that too? I looked at the president of the association with that expression.

“Silent magic looks like a villain. Isn’t this a peaceful request?”

“I guess so.”

Then Yewon approached me.

“There is no rubbish in our village that would dare to reveal your true identity. If so, I will shoot you.”

“It’s scary.”

He laughed at my joke and answered like this.

“You’re more afraid, man.”

“hahahaha.”

“So don’t worry about that and continue to play an active role as the unknown hero SS. If you’re having a hard time, you can come to our village anytime.”

I flew up the sky, being escorted by all the villagers. Around that time, the president of the association looked at my sword with a serious expression.

“Then, now that no one is watching, how about taking out the curse of Nemesis? The demonic energy is much thicker than before. Is there anything special?”

Even if the magic control level is raised, can’t the eyes of the president of the association be fooled? He is also a person worthy of the nickname sage.

“Yes. What.”

Each time you pull it out, your stamina is consumed, but it heals with super regenerative ability. As a result, nothing special happens.

As soon as I showed him the curse of Nemesis, he said this with a rather serious expression.

“Nemesis, Queen of Devourers, she’s starting to open her eyes… Are you really all right?”

“As you can see, I’m fine.”

The manager’s voice came from the driver’s seat.

“What do you think of our SS-nim, President of the association! You’re the one who lightly pulled out and lifted the curse of Nemesis.”

“Heh heh. Look at that. Now I’m in the middle of a cold meal.”

I laughed at his joke and put the knife back in.

“I’m sorry, but if you have any problems, please contact me right away.”

“Probably won’t happen.”

Before that, I already had super regeneration.

“Chuck. It’s nice to be like you.”

“After all, SS-sama’s cool, the best!”

“Me, won, is it the secretary of the president of the association or the secretary of the SS?”

I arrived near the school before I knew it. She decided to get off in a safe place and walk because it would be a big deal if she got off in front of the school gate.

“Thank you for the ride.”

“No, thank you very much for defeating the beast.”

“Yes, and yes.”

After clearing the sudden quest last time, I received an increased chance to contact the butler as a reward. It’s better to prepare in advance.

“If I contact you later, could you write ‘high school student’ in the SS information column?”

His eyes widened at my unexpected request.

“Wasn’t he hiding his identity?”

“That’s fine.”

Because there are students who need to use that information to build a kite.

“Anyway, I understand you’re okay. Come to think of it, midterms are coming soon, right? I’m going to observe during the Dalian exam for the first year.”

“Oh. Really? To see who.”

“Of course you are.”

“But it must be boring because I’m ranked 222nd.”

“That’s why I’m going. I think it’ll be fun to see how they hide their power.”

This nobleman…

“True. I heard that my student and the headmaster of your school are stopping by the school just in time for the midterm exam…”

Principal Lee Hyun-ji.

The Wizard of Light and Darkness.

At first, I was expected to be the final boss, but I was surprised because he was a good man. Even watching the main character who uses a knife, he doesn’t criticize.

“Are you going to keep it a secret even from the principal? The identity of the SS.”

“Hmm…”

As I said before, as a good S-class wizard, he is one of the characters you must have a crush on. If you tell me that you’re not the kind of person to gossip about, but rather that you’re an SS, it’ll make things a lot easier.

“Catch me sometime.”

“I’m glad you’re so cool.”

It was time to say goodbye to the two and head to school.
