Academy Light Attribute Vampire

53 – Omen

He lightly greeted seniors and Shin Jong-gil who entered the club room.

The expression of Shin Jong-gil, who looks somewhat bewildered,

A gloomy senior who doesn’t show any reaction.

All the members of the club naturally gathered at the table,

The conversation started in earnest when the narrow-eyed senior brought the amount of coffee.

“…So, you came because you were interested in the club?”

“Yes.”

“Hmm… That’s troubling.”

“…? Why?”

The narrow-eyed senior smiled bitterly and continued.

“This club is exclusively for humans…”

Ah.

I looked around and saw Shin Jong-gil, a senior with a dark smile, and even a senior with narrow eyes.

All were human.

“…Why do you only accept humans?”

“The very purpose of the club’s founding was to supplement knowledge about the lack of gates in the dimension ‘Earth’…”

“…The knowledge of the gate?”

“Yes, because Earth is still in a difficult situation to deal with the Gate compared to Merhem… Ordinary people don’t even know about its existence.”

Concealment of gate existence.

All of the human families currently attending the academy are children of upper-class families on Earth, or

From a young age, they were chosen because they showed a special temperament for mana.

It has been deceived with various expressions such as unidentified objects, ghost stories, and illusory existence.

No matter how hard you try, you can’t hide it forever.

We had to come up with a perfect countermeasure against the gate as soon as possible.

“…So. What kind of research do you mainly do?”

“The problem of manpower shortage is not something we can solve…”

So!

“What if you could artificially create gates?”

“… Yes?”

“Oh, don’t get me wrong. It’s not a gate from which monsters jump out.

I’m talking about the gate that connects Earth and Merhem…!”

… Wait.

Next to her, Mirae Yoon opened her mouth with startled eyes.

“The gate connecting Earth and Merhem…?”

“Yes. It’s the research contents that have been passed on since our ancestors… Currently, there is only one gate connecting Merhem and Earth.”

“… You mean the gate on the side of Serpinia, some distance away from the capital, right?”

“That’s right, even if you run straight from the guild when a gate occurs in Earth, it will take a lot of time.

Because not all active soldiers are in Merhem’s capital…”

The narrow-eyed senior continues his conversation with an expression that makes him thrilled just by imagining it.

“At such times, we artificially create gates with the gate induction device we developed! So-called portals!

Then communication, support, and trade between dimensions will be able to develop progressively.”

“… Can you make a gate that easy?”

“Of course, I’m still researching, and I need to study the properties of mana in the dimension for a long time and get the exact coordinates…”

It is definitely a club with good intentions.

But…

I already know about that ‘gate guiding device’.

From noble mtl dot com

Around the break of dawn that lights up the morning.

Sung Jin-ha and Adela stand guarding the gate.

And at the same time as the sun came up, armed people suddenly appeared and rushed in.

The Merveus family, exhausted from the battle with the vampires last night, leads their weakened bodies in the morning,

I had to deal with the incoming forces of Earth.

-aaah!!

A tired body and drying mana.

The armor of the knights distorted in the rain of bullets,

The members of the vampire guild have become cold corpses.

“…”

“Of course, even if peace comes later,

We’re making tourism products with this technology! You can travel between Earth and Merhem…!”

Unlike the narrow-eyed sunbaenim, who was excited and expedited his explanations.

Senior gloomy and Shin Jong-gil were just smiling pretentiously, as if they weren’t interested.

In the meantime.

“…”

I met the eyes of the gloomy senior.

Looking at it like this, I don’t feel the same ominous energy as last time.

“…Do you have something to say?”

“No… I’m just sorry.”

“…Yes.”

The narrow-eyed senior who was talking to Yoon Mi-rae opened her mouth.

“… It would be nice if Junior Lai could come in too, or I could tell the advisor…”

“No, I’m fine.”

“Ah… Really? It’s a pity, but it can’t be helped.”

Of course, there is also the option of forcibly entering the club and keeping it in check, but

You can’t spend too much time on a gate guidance device that may be finished when it’s finished.

And in the first place, there is a convenient way…

I don’t think there’s any need to be suspicious and raise your guard.

“…But it’s a good club. Can I come over often?”

“Then! As long as Jong-gil is your friend, it’s okay to come anytime!”

…Naturally, Shin Jong-gil and his eyes meet.

If it’s the way it used to be, I’ll have to make a fuss at this timing…

“…Yes, come hang out anytime.”

…?

I wonder if there’s really something…

To be honest, the gap with the first impression is too big, so I can’t adapt.

“Uh… Yes, do your best in club activities.”

“Go in carefully! Future friends will contact you later!”

Contact?

Kikki-

The club door is closed,

After leaving the annex, he naturally opened his mouth.

“… Contact me?”

“Oh, I want to join that club.”

“Huh…? Why?”

“Why… It’s because I’m willing to go in, isn’t it?”

No, it would be embarrassing if you did that all of a sudden….

In my head, the image of Yoon Mi-rae blackened by being assimilated into the idea of the dimension comes to mind.

-Inferior races…!

‘…Something seems to suit me.’

“… That’s right, it seems like there’s an investment possibility just by listening to the explanation, right?

Wouldn’t the fact that you participated even a little later in the development give you some benefit?”

It’s really Yoon Mi-rae’s way of thinking.

Still…

“…When will you start?”

“Hmm… The sooner the better, maybe next week or so?”

Next week…

Even if we take action from now on, it won’t be resolved within a week.

“Hey… Then, just in case, allow the smartwatch location transmitter.”

If you press the crisis button in your smart watch,

A function that automatically sends the current location to registered people.

However, there is a possibility of invasion of privacy if pressed incorrectly,

If you are not a really trustworthy person, do not register well.

“… I’m not interested in you?”

“It’s a bit… I’m just worried, so don’t talk nonsense.”

“Worried..? Ah. Is it because of the narrow-eyed senior…? You really…”

“Not that one, but the other senior. I’m a bit concerned.”

Huh…

The reason why I came to this club in the first place was through my words that the senior was suspicious.

“What. Special. Star. Hee. I’ll do it.”

“…Someone says it’s good, but it’s very popular.”

“Who said what? Anyway…”

Mirae Yoon muttered in a low voice as she turned her head.

“…Thank you. For your concern.”

She then opened her mouth in a confident tone as she stepped forward.

“Still, she’s not stupid enough for you to worry about. She takes care of the kids she used to take care of.”

… Contrary to what she said, she disappeared from sight in an instant.

‘He’s ashamed of everything.’

Couldn’t it just be that her friends were worried about each other?

‘…Let’s stop by the gymnasium.’

It’s about time the sun starts to set.

If you go now, there will be few people, and it would be nice to sweat, wash, and sleep.

As we move to the gymnasium,

As expected, no one was around because the time was ambiguous.

“It’s perfect.”

I was just going to do some light exercise before going to bed anyway.

Let’s just do a few laps around the gym.

“Whoa…”

Tak. Widely.

I can definitely feel that my body has become lighter than before. She

Even when she entered the school, she was out of breath at the slightest run.

When she looked at the status window, she didn’t really feel it….

It seems that her physical abilities have improved.

After running about ten laps around her gymnasium, sweat begins to leak from her body.

‘… That’s enough.’

Because it’s rather bad if you exercise excessively before going to bed.

It’s getting dark even if I do it slowly,

I’d better go back to the dormitory.

Just like that, on the way back to the dormitory.

“…?”

There was someone in the training room.

‘… At this hour?’

The indoor training room is a space mainly used by humans and elves who handle elemental magic or spirit magic.

However, it was not a very popular space for wizards who had to learn more about theory than actual combat.

Can’t stand the curiosity, let’s go inside the training room.

I could see a familiar figure.

Elf ears pricked in marigold-colored hair.

‘…Helena?’

… You’ve been practicing so hard by yourself.

The appearance of Elena during the martial arts competition.

Certainly, it was not an achievement that could be achieved by working hard for a day or two.

You must have always worked hard behind the scenes like this…

‘It’s wonderful.’

Okay then, shall we go eat something expensive with Elena today?

The moment she moved her steps.

-… Is it still far?

Suddenly, Elena began to open her mouth.

-…Again! I’m always lacking… I just say I’m not enough..! When the hell…

I looked around and saw no one but me and Elena.

If so,

I hear Elena is talking to herself into the air…

– You did that the other day…

The conversation is too real to be a self-talk.

… Suddenly,

I remembered my conversation with Veronica.

-… Do you hear hallucinations or something?

‘No way…’

That moment.

-… Yes? What is that

Suddenly, Elena turned her head and met her eyes with mine.

Then, Todo hurriedly came running towards us.

“Rye?!”

Elena ran out the door, looking startled.

“Uh. Um. Hello?”

…It seems like something is happening to Elena.
