The Academy Heroines Remember My Death

Chapter 34: Conversation Under Surveillance

Conversation Under Surveillance

-Thump!

With the noise of the door closing, a large amount of pure mana began to flow.

No, that wasnt right at all.

With the presence of magi mixed in, it was more like oil and water.

Take a sip.

Stop saying nonsense. What if this tea is poisoned? And whats with the flow of mana?

If I wanted to kill you, I would have done so.

If you have so much confidence in your strength, just try it. Stop trying to change the subject and take a sip first.

All right.

The chairman began to drink the unknown liquid.

Seeing that he had no adverse reaction, it didnt seem like he tried anything.

[Magi Manipulation has been activated. Physical abilities are greatly enhanced]

Due to the presence of magi in the air, my skill had been activated, which boosted my confidence.

Even with this power, I didnt know if I could beat him, but I was confident in being able to let others see that we were fighting.

Lets get over the formalities. Why did you call me here?

Isnt it obvious? Its because of what you did in the final exam.

The final exam heh. Isnt that something you should be explaining to me?

Of course not.

The chairman kept changing the subject.

I questioned internally why he wasnt getting to the point.

Did he want me to explain what occurred during the final exam? Or did he want something else?

I dont like you.

I agree. I rather despise-

I suddenly stopped, having noticed something.

While the chairmans voice was filled with bloodlust, he was writing furiously.

What was that power you used during the final exam?

[Thank you.]

What?

The mana in the room seemed to want to tear me apart that instant.

But his demeanor completely contrasted that, quietly handing over a note.

It had [Thank you] written on it.

I couldnt understand what he was doing.

Because of your actions, many students were disadvantaged. Its natural that I should hold you accountable.

[Thanks to you, I was able to reduce the number of students who were admitted.]

Whats this bastard doing?

If he went through the trouble of writing it out, he should have just said it aloud. Why bother going through the trouble?

Was he being monitored?

That was the only thing I could think of.

The chairman was either being blackmailed or monitored.

And someone who could have power to the extent of being able to threaten the chairman must mean

That bastard and the chairman must not be on the same side.

The chairman and that bastard who killed me could be on different sides.

I couldnt be sure, but it was something to think about.

Ark.

[Id like to thank you greatly for protecting my daughter.]

What?

A large explosion occurred with a boom, but as if the attack was meant to distract someone, it was aimed in a completely different direction. Ignoring it, I focused on the word on the paper I didnt understand.

A daughter? His female offspring?

What kind of bullshit was that?

None of us knew for over six years?

Someone among my comrades was the daughter of the chairman?

Th-Thats a little too shocking. Lee Hyun-a is a boy, so thats not possible. Since Seo-ah didnt participate in the third exam, the only one left was Ha-eun.

They dont look alike at all, though.

Ha-eun is his daughter, despite not having an ounce of likeness?

What are you thinking about?

I decided to worry about it later. Right now, Ha-eun would probably tell me if I asked anyway.

First, I needed to get information about the bastard who had killed me.

Assuming that the chairman was being watched, I continued speaking.

Who do you think you are to put the blame on me?

Im the chairman of this academy.

Thats not what I mean. Whats your true identity?

The chairman was silent for a brief moment.

As if he thought writing too much would be a problem, he scribbled something quickly.

Im not sure what you mean.

[Fifteen years ago, the devil]

Whatever. At least tell me why I have to take responsibility.

Fifteen years ago

I felt like I heard something about that time frame, but I couldnt seem to remember.

I could find that information out later, but I needed to focus on the pressing issue at hand.

There was definitely a reason why he called for me besides giving me information.

Because of you, our academy suffered a large loss, so we want compensation. I was told you destroyed a magic orb and defeated a professor in single combat.

What do you want?

As a student of the academy, you will clear a dungeon that we designate and bring the reward to us.

[Trap.]

This asshole of a chairman is actually pretty helpful.

Because of his generous information, I would be able to set up a plan in advance.

A trap, huh?

What kind of dungeon is it? Shouldnt you give me some more information? Like its rank, whats inside-

Well provide you with information related to the dungeon. Will you try? If you succeed, we will ignore any damage done to the academy and its reputation.

[You still cant clear it with your current strength. Run.]

Did the chairman tell me to run because that bastard was coming?

No, that shouldnt be right. He must still be regaining his power.

If he had his full power back, he definitely would have come to kill me personally. He wouldnt be setting up a trap.

Regardless, I would run in headfirst.

Fine, Ill do it.

What?

Ill clear that shitty dungeon.

I would go personally.

I hadnt tried it, but there was a high possibility I could use [Magi Manipulation] whenever I wanted.

That meant I could use that fearsome power I had used during the fight with Professor Park Ki-yeol. But even during that fight, I hadnt gone all out.

Deep in my heart, I wanted to grab the chairman and throttle him, but I couldnt.

In a situation where I couldnt know what restraints the chairman was under, I couldnt act carelessly.

If it was a trap, there was likely something awaiting me that he believed could kill me.

It would be better to track down and question that bastard who killed me instead.

Theres one more condition.

You seriously have a lot of annoying requests. Just tell me.

Because the academy has determined it would be dangerous for you to go on your own, they want you to bring your friends with you.

Are you talking about-

Yes, the three people youre thinking of. Take them with you.

Sigh. He wasnt just aiming for me, but also for the people around me.

It was so obvious that I was dumbfounded.

At this rate, things will get complicated.

Besides wanting to beat that bastards face in, I would be all right.

Even knowing it was a trap, I was prepared, so no matter what danger awaited me, there shouldnt be a substantial problem.

However, that was only the case when I was alone. I couldnt make the others follow me down that path.

Make sure they come with you.

[If they dont, you all will surely die.]

It was so ridiculous.

Did that bastard have other subordinates?

The chairman had no intention of threatening me, so even though I had no idea what he would do, he probably wasnt lying.

Do you accept?

[Please save my daughter no matter what.]

I accept.

Damn.

He really didnt resemble Ha-eun. The fact that he had a daughter kept bugging me.

No way Seo-ah is his daughter, right? Well, whatever. The situation was resolved quicker than I thought.

I had assumed a fight would break out, so I had planned ahead, but nothing ended up happening

I would have to prepare for that dungeon, but I was fine with thator so I thought.

Instead of a goodbye, Ill give you this.

?

As the mana in the room became more violent, it began to concentrate in his hand.

Fuck.

Suddenly, the chairman showed the intent to attack.

Seeing his completely unexpected action, I stood shell-shocked for a moment, but quickly realized why he was acting like this.

Seven minutes have passed!

It had been over seven minutes since I had been in this room.

-Thump!

Master!

The door opened with a thump, showing Ha-eun, Seo-ah, and a very confused Lee Hyun-a.

As soon as I saw Ha-euns status window, I understood the chairmans intention.

Yu Ha-eun! Hurry up and activate [Mass Teleportation]!

Huh? How did you know I hav-

Thats not important right now! Hurry!

[Mass Teleportation] was a skill that could be cast quicker if the people were closer to each other.

For that reason, I grabbed onto the confused Lee Hyun-a and ran to Ha-euns side as fast as I could.

At that moment, she used his skill.

Ark!

M-Mass Teleportation!

A large explosion reverberated throughout the chairmans office.
