Iron Blooded Villain’s Academy Class

Episode 110

Taemin Kang and Yohanna first moved to the Veritas Guild. It was thanks to Alexei’s condition that stimulated Johanna’s desire for knowledge.

“Alexei is not a guinea pig.”

Kang Tae-min nailed it to her. Although he is a suitable person for Cid, his karma log was also intact, and he clearly showed good tendencies.

“Do not worry about it. Do you know what kind of mad scientist I am? No, mad magician would be a more accurate expression.”

Johanna laughed and fanned Alexei into a bed in the containment cell.

“It’s not just about doing research. It might be okay now, but you never know again, right? It could turn into a monster.”

She activated the barrier generator in the containment room and drew another magic circle on top of it.

“For now, let’s see the progress.”

Kang Tae-min looked at her for a moment and then shook his head.

It was definitely not wrong.

“I can’t hold on for long though. He also has a place to return to.”

“Well, I guess. He must be a valuable talent in Russia as well. So we should check sooner.”

“Ugh… .”

While the two were talking, Alexei let out a shallow moan, as if he had come to his senses.

He then got up and looked around to assess the situation.

“ah… It didn’t get ugly.”

It seems that not turning into a monster is more important than suddenly waking up somewhere else.

Johanna adjusted the barrier to create a passage. However, Taemin Kang entered first before her.

“Are you okay.”

“Ah yes. Although there is still some pain left.”

Taemin Kang looked at him for a moment before explaining the situation. Everyone at the other Moscow academies turned into monsters, and even the story of the culprit, Cid.

“Am I the only one who doesn’t have a problem?”

“I do not know yet. I’ll have to keep an eye on it a little longer and do some tests.”

At Johanna’s answer, Alexei turned his head. She, too, could speak Russian fluently.

“If you are a prosecutor… ?”

“I’m going to start with a blood test, and I’ll have to do a mana wave and a psychological test as well.”

Alexei’s soul merged with Cid. There was reason to investigate the conscious aspect as well as the physical changes that followed.

“Oh, it’s not difficult.”

Alexei accepted the situation surprisingly meekly. Taemin Kang looked at him and slightly furrowed his eyebrows.

“… My friends and teacher who came with me are dead. Are you okay?”

He had heard of the deaths of Ivan, Tanya and Nikolai, but he showed no sign of sadness.

“It is unfortunate, but it has already happened. We weren’t very close.”

They were not of much value to Alexei. Taemin Kang shook his head.

Even before the regression, Alexei expressed his feelings only for what he considered ‘beautiful’.

‘It’s ambiguous to see because of Cid’s influence.’

He should have left the rest to Johanna.

next day.

The media focused on reporting on the monster occurrence at the hotel.

[The identity of the black monster is a monster?]

[Hunter Association, ‘All-out efforts in the current investigation.’]

[＜Exclusive＞ Survivor Testimony, ‘They were people.’]

[Biological terrorism? Spreading uneasiness among citizens]

It would have been easier to accept if the dungeon had occurred. However, the shock was considerable as the person suddenly turned into a monster.

As much as they were anxious that it might be a new type of disaster, people’s attention was focused on one person.

[This time, ‘Destructive Teacher’ came out]

[The one I saw at the crossroads of life and death was the ‘iron bat’.]

[The strongest appeared faster than anyone else!]

[Survivor’s testimony, ‘Be grateful for the rest of your life.’]

Fear and anxiety grew the more clearly the target was not known.

However, Kang Tae-min solved the problem by himself. He has shown that he can respond to unprecedented situations.

Thanks to this, the anxiety felt by citizens was limited to ‘a new problem has occurred’.

‘Thanks to Kang Tae-min, the response has become easier.’

Bae Seung-ju did not miss this flow. For now, it was suppressed by Kang Tae-min’s performance, but as time passed, ‘imagination’ would be displayed.

‘The media loves horror.’

The identity of the monster, the conspiracy theory, the uselessness of the association, and so on. All sorts of speculation would be rampant not only in various media outlets, but also in Q-Tube and the internet community.

The media profited from public attention, and fear and anxiety were the best lures for attention.

‘Now is the right time.’

Accordingly, he immediately scheduled a press conference and invited Kang Tae-min and Joo Tae-ji.

Unlike when the 6 strongest players were announced the other day, heavy air was weighing down the press conference.

“First of all, I would like to express my deepest condolences to the victims and their bereaved families.”

In front of numerous cameras, Bae Seung-joo started announcing the results of the investigation with a solemn expression.

The content was exactly as it was discussed at the meeting of the strongest.

“Here, the head of the Spiral Guild, Changhwang Ju Tae-ji, has been tracking Seed all along.”

At Bae Seung-joo’s words, the camera lens and reporters’ eyes turned. Taeji Joo calmly took the microphone.

“exactly. The drug fight, no, the drug dealers introduce it as a stimulant that strengthens their abilities, but in reality it is poison that turns people into monsters.”

Of course, the truth was different.

Seed sold on the market is not the same as the improved seed in this situation.

However, since the truth is not important right now, Bae Seung-joo and Joo Tae-ji lied.

‘It’s a white lie.’

Kang Tae-min also participated.

It would not only be a simple warning against monsters, but would also curb the purchase of illegal drugs.

* * *

At the same time, Torso’s hiding place.

She was concentrating on seed production for her new plan.

“This time I’m taking a more cautious approach! Pete, do you think you know where we’re going this time?”

Pete looked at her blankly and turned his head away.

“This time, we’ll be aiming for lunch right away! It’s not just the academy, but it’s also spreading seeds in general schools! Not just one place like last time, but Papak in several places at the same time!”

Torso’s eyes lit up and he laughed. If they were students with immature souls, the rate of erosion of seeds would be fast, and they could spread in all directions before the Association or the strongest could respond.

“Well, the probability of finding a suitable person is small, but it is enough to cover that with numbers. As soon as he sees Head, he’ll say, ‘Oh, I admit this.’”

She smiled and brushed the brain tissue off her hands. But that smile didn’t last long.

＜Torso.＞

It was because the voice came out of the screen along with the noise. She trembled and glanced sideways.

“Oh, head? What is it?”

＜I did encourage the members to do as they please, but it’s difficult to do things randomly.＞

Cold sweat ran down Torso’s back. However, as I had already expected him to notice, I decided to act as I had prepared in advance.

“A random thing! That wasn’t luck. It was an original plan! Ah, if you hear the new plan now, you will change your mind… .”

＜Shh.＞

Hearing Head’s monotonous voice, she snapped shut. There was fear in his quivering eyes.

＜The other members are also in trouble.＞

“Head, I… .”

＜It’s okay.＞

he cut her off. Although Torso wanted to be forgiven.

＜Because it is the privilege of the worthy to be expected.＞

It felt like my heart sank at the sound of the voice that followed. Torso was speechless and froze.

＜It will be difficult to waste more seeds than this. I hope you understand something while watching this.＞

The crackling noise soon turned into a press conference room.

* * *

“You must be worried about the danger of monsters. About this, I will listen directly to Myeorak teacher, Kang Tae-min, who was active in the field.”

Bae Seung-ju’s words changed the eyes of the reporters. Taeji Joo is a person with a lot of influence, but the center of the recent topic is definitely Kang Tae-min.

I had to focus more and deliver the news faster.

When Taemin Kang took the microphone, the hall became quiet without a single noise.

“The Association named these monsters Corrupted.”

As he uttered a word, the reporters’ fingers became busy. Kang Tae-min explained the characteristics of Corrupted and stared at the camera.

“The CCTV at the scene was all damaged, but the culprit was captured before the incident.”

“… criminal?”

“Is this a deliberate accident?”

A few surprised reporters unknowingly spoke out. He hurriedly shut his mouth at the glare of another reporter right next to him.

“Yes, that’s right.”

When Kang Tae-min answered, the silent reporters expressed their regret.

Soon after, Bae Seung-joo displayed the data screen on the screen. There was a close-up of Pete mixing seeds into ingredients.

‘Originally, I was going to conduct a secret investigation… .’

Bae Seung-ju had no intention of publicizing the existence of Pete. However, after hearing Kang Tae-min’s words, he changed his mind.

– Hiding is not the best. Pete is a villain with the ability to move through space, and the effectiveness of secret investigations will not be very great.

Usually, a wanted person will hide the criminal and can make it difficult to arrest.

However, Pete is difficult to apprehend under any circumstances because of his ability.

-If you make him a public enemy, your movement will be limited.

Kang Tae-min hoped that ordinary citizens would also be used as monitors. Wherever he went, if citizens recognized Pete, the radius of action would be reduced.

“The culprit has the ability to open a portal through which he can move through space. We need your report and cooperation for this.”

“portal… ?”

“Spatial movement… !”

Reporters’ eyes widened. The Awoken who deal with space have never been revealed.

It was a new scoop.

‘But with this, they’ll notice that our side is securing Hwang Ye-ri.’

Only Kang Tae-min and Hwang Ye-ri, who were in disguise, knew Pete’s abilities. Nobody would have known that Hwang Ye-ri was cooperating with the association.

That was a minor matter.

“Everyone.”

When Kang Tae-min opened his mouth again, the buzzing reporters quickly focused.

“Please try to protect yourself.”

For others, for society, for the common good.

What struck me more than those ‘desirable’ obligations was personal gain.

Two days later, in the Noblesse Academy principal’s office.

Rosalyn looked down at the inspection station located on campus.

It was an additional notice when the association announced the monster and corrupted status.

‘Do you mean detecting a mad follower over there?’

Bae Seung-joo accepted Kang Tae-min’s opinion and switched to a prosecutor rather than a Lunatic money check.

While preparing a suitable reason for this, the Corrupted situation broke out.

‘To take advantage of the fact that seeds can be contagious, should I call him the head of headquarters?’

They needed an excuse to test citizens, and the contagious seed was just the right excuse.

Originally, it was a secret, but because Rosalyn was in a position equivalent to the strongest, she was able to receive related information.

‘Well, the association will take care of that problem… .’

Rosalind decided to stick to her original job, her duties as principal. Eventually, when the scheduled time arrived, an email arrived.

[Dear Principal Rosalyn.]

It was a reply from China’s representative academy, ‘China New People’s School’.

Summarize everything in one line.

‘He said he couldn’t come because he was scared.’

It was the content that the friendly match requested this time would be postponed.

It was because of the news that there were casualties at the Moscow Academy due to this Corrupted incident.

Moreover, they felt threatened by the possibility of contagion of Corrupted.

“Ugh, what are they saying?”

Rosalyn muttered with an expression full of disgust, and then managed her expression again.

Fortunately, the Japanese side, ‘Bushido Academy’, had received an answer in advance that they would proceed as is.

‘Since China was the last one anyway, I’ll just have to look at the situation.’

Rosalind scrolled down with her chin on her chin. There was another issue more important than that.

[I express my deep regret for the treatment of Noblesse Academy.]

It was an e-mail from the Moscow Academy. The transmission was from the academy, but it was safe to say that it was the position of the Russian government.

‘Even though they were students, they were representatives of the world competition… .’

While visiting Korea, two out of three representatives died. The responsibility for this was that the Noblesse Academy and the Korean Hunter Association also lay.

“It’s a very damn rich year.”

Rosalyn read the email again and cursed. It wasn’t intentional and it wasn’t an accident.

It was an incomprehensible act to hold people accountable for the deaths of their own people.

‘I guess I’ll pass the blame on.’

Still, after the cataclysm, Russia tended to be more nationalistic. It must have been the judgment that it was better for the ruling class to turn the arrow to the outside.

‘Well, if I saved even one, I should be grateful.’

The survivor, Alexei, was being protected by Yohanna at Taemin Kang’s request.

Kang Tae-min said that he deliberately revealed the fact of protection late for Alexei’s stability.

“principal.”

Hearing Cha Dong-hyuk’s voice accompanied by a knock, she managed her expression again.

“Come in!”

“… Have you rejected international calls by any chance?”

At Cha Dong-hyuk’s question, Rosalyn shook her head.

“Aw, yes. It’s voice phishing, isn’t it scary?”

“It looks like you didn’t reply to my email right away. Thanks to you, I was contacted through the Russian embassy.”

At Cha Dong-hyuk’s words, Rosalind crumpled her face.

“under… Those nose guys are really nasty.”

“… The headmaster must also belong to that race.”

“So, isn’t that something you can say? If someone else does it, it’s racist, but because of me, it’s possible!”

“Yes, anyway. The Moscow Academy has notified me that they will personally take Alexei.”

“No, if you go, you will go on your own. I’m not a kid with a stuffy nose, so I came to pick him up myself? And why did you pass that on to us?”

Rosalind grumbled, but Cha Dong-hyuk did not respond.

“Right now, Alexei’s guardians are Teacher Kang Tae-min and Johanna-nim, so isn’t it like that? It would be embarrassing to talk about it in person.”

Cha Dong-hyuk paused for a moment and added a word.

“Just like me now.”

“Uh, okay. I’ll apologize for that. So, when did you say you would come?”

“It seems to be arriving by afternoon.”

“Yes, yes, I will deliver it to Mr. Kang, so let’s take a look!”

“Yes, then… .”

Cha Dong-hyuk left, and Rosalyn immediately relayed the fact to Kang Tae-min.

“Well, this is what happened.”

＜Okay. It’s okay.＞

Kang Tae-min’s voice was calm.

＜It’s time for student Alexei to go home too.＞

It was thanks to him that he found out everything.
