There Are Too Many Background Settings in the Possessed Novel

The rumored freshman (2)

“Are you Leonhard Deinhart?”

the boy asked me coldly.

“yes. Is that right?”

Then I remembered the boy’s name.

Kayden Adan.

He must be the second son of the Duke of Adan.

“Right.”

In response to my answer, Kayden injected an aura into the sword as if he had heard everything he needed.

The sword was surrounded by silver-gray light, and the aura emitted a violent light.

Kayden growled like an angry beast.

“I challenge you to a duel with your family’s honor. Leonhard Danhart. A person who knows honor will accept it, right?”

And Kaiden tilted his head and glared at me fiercely.

The light of the aura was emanating from the cool blade at the nape of my neck.

Aura is a powerful force that releases the spirit of the soul into the sword.

It can be said that it is the essence of swordsmanship that only warriors who have reached a considerable level can do.

Its destructive power was comparable to that of magic, and it was possible to improve physical performance or protect oneself from magic by wearing it as well as a weapon.

‘Is it the student council? That’s quite a level.’

Judging from her round, youthful face, she must have been at a young age, but being able to emit an aura was impossible without great talent or hard work to sharpen her soul.

“Isn’t that person Kayden Adan? Last year’s year-end exam ranked third in the grade… .”

“Is that sword… covered with an aura?! at that person’s age? Wow, that’s dangerous.”

“Did the Duke of Danehart and the Duke of Adan not get along?”

“Anyway, it’s dangerous, so call the professor quickly!”

The students quickly became upset.

“You’re not going to refuse, are you?”

Contrary to what he said, it doesn’t matter if he refuses.

In the first place, he challenged a duel without reason, and there was no justification.

It means that my reputation will not be tarnished.

Still, I wanted to know why, so I asked again.

“What is your reason for doing this? senior.”

Kaiden looked at Leonhard and slightly narrowed his brows.

“…If I say it here, you’ll be in trouble too, right?”

At this point, I was starting to get a rough idea of what it was.

Apparently, this boy saw YuRia, who had burst into tears yesterday.

And, perhaps, it seemed that there was some kind of misunderstanding.

Like I made Yuria cry…or something like that.

Anyway, it was unexpected, but this is fine.

In order to keep Libya quiet, it was necessary to cause such an uproar once anyway.

Originally, I was going to raise it myself, but let’s pretend that there is no need for trouble.

“good. A duel, let’s do it.”

I closed the book and gently pushed the sword that had entered my neck with magical power.

When his sword was naturally pushed back, Kayden widened his eyes in surprise.

“You, what… uh, how?! A sword with an aura?!”

The reason why Kayden was surprised was simple.

Aura has the power to reject magic, and it was known that magic does not work.

Originally, in the original novel, the main character was close to the style of a magician who uses magic and swordsmanship at the same time.

So, the main character of the original work would compete with an opponent using an aura through a sword.

The problem was that it was very difficult for me to handle the sword because I couldn’t shake off my illness.

I couldn’t learn the sword properly and had to use only magic.

The good news is that this aura has one unknown fatal weakness.

Of course, it’s a setting that doesn’t exist in the original novel.

I needed the power to easily counter the aura, so I filled in the holes in the settings in advance.

[If the source of the aura is the soul, it can be said that its nature is similar to the imagery needed to deal with magic. Therefore, it is also possible to weaken the aura that rejects magic with empty attribute magic.]

Void magic is magic that removes or weakens other magic.

A magic that exists only in the background of the novel, and no one except me knows of its existence.

I have been practicing this since childhood.

I haven’t had much chance to use it since I used it on Yuria at the age of 8, but I thought there would be many opportunities to use it at the academy.

I never thought that the day would come so quickly that I could experience the settings I had filled in.

It was always thrilling to see these well-stuffed settings in action.

“A duel is good, but it would be better to move the location instead.”

I said as I slowly got up from my seat.

“Senpai, aren’t you in trouble in a place where so many people are watching?”

Bewildered, Kaiden looked at me warily, then forcibly nodded.

It’s good that they’re freshmen, so they don’t know much about it.

As proof of that, Kaiden’s face was a little hot.

“That, yes. Don’t change your seat.”

I smiled and walked out of the classroom.

‘Rather than that, it’s Kayden Adan. I think I’ll remember.’

I glanced at Kayden, who was following me, and called up the settings window because I was concerned about something.

I definitely remember seeing that name in the original work, but there was a strange sense of difference.

——————————

Seeing that there was no additional setting, it was clear that the character had already appeared in the novel.

In the first place, even if there was an additional setting, it was almost impossible to add a setting to the character, except for cases such as Elina, who died before the novel started.

Most of the settings related to the characters were added or managed by the world in advance.

In other words, background settings were added in real time.

However, it was not impossible to confirm the background setting added by the world.

It was possible to look into some of the settings through the ‘Setting Unlock’ ability, which was unlocked when the level of the explorer’s special ability in my setting reached 3.

Tring!

[Found 50 unlocked presets. Some settings are automatically unlocked through the ‘Unlock Settings’ ability of the Seeker of Settings LV3.]

[Setup Unlock LV1. 21 unlocked settings among the Kayden Adan keywords.]

I quickly skimmed through the unlocked settings, and found one setting.

‘Right. I can use this.’

Discovering an interesting setting, I laughed lightly.

“Why are you walking so slowly?”

Kayden urged me from behind and said.

“Oh, I was thinking about something. sorry. Hurry up.”

It was partly because I was looking at the settings, but I was walking a little slower for another reason.

It was obviously because ‘she’ wanted to watch me and Kayden go to the duel.

I should have checked it soon, so there was no need to waste time.

“Arrogant guy.”

I deftly shrugged my shoulders at his accusation and moved to the academy’s arena.

still early.

There was no one in the academy’s spacious indoor arena.

I stood in the arena, feeling the chilly temperature of an empty space without people.

“How did the freshman know this place?”

In response to Kayden’s question, I asked back with a mocking smile.

“Shouldn’t you know if you’re a freshman?”

“You’ve been acting arrogantly since before. Aren’t you afraid of dying?”

“Ah, did you intend to kill me? That’s great. scary Isn’t murder between students forbidden at the academy? Even if it’s not the academy, it’s the same legally. You don’t have to know that senior?”

Kayden’s face flushed bright red, ready to explode with anger.

“You guys! How far do you look at me… !”

Pretending not to hear, I turned around.

As expected, several students were hesitantly entering the conference room to watch the duel.

There weren’t that many, about 10 people.

None of them wanted me to watch the duel, but her personality made me think she was hiding somewhere and watching.

Even if you haven’t seen it, there’s no problem because those students will spread rumors.

“Well then, let’s finish quickly since we have to go back before the ordinance time begins.”

I said lightly and neatly.

“A senior is a senior?”

When he said it as if he were conceding, Kaiden seemed so angry that he couldn’t be more angry.

“…I know you as a wizard, but I’ll give you one chance to get away.”

‘Oh sure.’

I applauded his transcendent patience from the bottom of my heart and smiled a little.

“no. no. I have enough here. You do it to your advantage.”

No matter how patient he was, it seemed impossible to endure any longer.

He lowered himself and brought his hand, shaking with rage, to the hilt of the sword he had put in its scabbard.

“Have no regrets. freshman. You provoked it this far, so it doesn’t matter if your head runs away, right?”

The dim light of the aura gathered under Kaiden’s feet, and the next moment.

wooong!!

He rushed at me with super-high speed like an arrow.

Most wizards would have changed their name to the swordsman who used this aura at close range.

However, I was already spreading the ball attribute magic around me.

It must have been incomprehensible to Kayden, but his speed, which had been rushing at me, significantly decreased when he entered the range of ball-type magic.

“what?! My body doesn’t move the way I want!”

I cast a swift spell on myself and moved.

Thanks to that, it wasn’t difficult to dodge his sword, but I deliberately waited for his sword and dodged it at the last minute.

It was intended to agitate him.

“Why can’t you reach me!”

It was threatening enough even in the field created by Kayden’s black ball magic containing an aura.

I continued to dodge his sword with a piece of paper, aiming for the moment when his sword was at its flimsiest.

“what? why?! what!”

Bewildered, Kaiden’s sword movements became faster and more promiscuous at the same time.

He must have thought that he had hit me accurately over and over again.

but can’t reach

Between me and him, a strong repelling force made of magic was created.

When he comes near me, his sword naturally deflects.

Even if it was repeated dozens or thousands of times, it was inevitable as long as he had an aura on his sword.

Originally, when wizards and warriors of similar levels battled, there was no case where Aurors could not cut magic.

However, it was possible inside the field created by ball magic.

The aura around the sword was weakened, so I couldn’t cut through the defensive magic I was wearing around me.

Of course, this is only limited to those who emit pure auras, so it won’t work for higher-level aura users.

‘This is enough for this guy.’

I aimed for an opening in Kaiden’s sword swing, and reached out to his body.

He noticed my movement and moved the aura wrapped around his sword toward his body.

It is at this time. I’ve been waiting for this moment ever since.

Waiting for him to release the aura that had dwelled in his sword, I deliberately gave my face to his sword.

If you give your face to the aura-infused sword, it won’t end with minor injuries.

I felt a burning pain and splattered blood, but that was enough.

Meanwhile, my hand gently touched Kayden’s chest.

If the speed at which he put the aura on his body had been a little, just a little bit faster, he would have been able to at least halve the power of my magic.

“It’s too bad. Senior Kayden.”

At that moment, a strong magical power acted on his body.

‘Explode.’

The moment the magic imbued with that image worked, the magic worked on Kayden’s body before Aura.

Quaang!!

With a loud explosion, Kaiden’s body floated into the sky.

There were no actual sparks, but the huge impact that exploded right in front of him blew Kayden almost to the end of the large arena.

Kayden’s body rolled on the floor in tatters, only to stop moving just before colliding with a wall.

The freshmen, who had been watching with bated breath, quickly became noisy.

“What just happened? Can the wizard come and make the user that easy?”

“They say the duke of the Daneheart family is a genius… . Is that already possible?”

“I am on a different level than I am… ”

And one of them gave me the reaction I wanted.

Then everyone seemed to realize it.

“Your face is… bleeding.”

“Gee, it’s true. The wound looks very deep.”

I put my hand over my face to check the size of the wound.

A stab wound the size of a finger was touched.

It wasn’t a very deep wound, but the cut was so wide that it seemed to bleed profusely.

“Kuh…not yet…it’s over… ”

Kaiden, who had flown far away, was trying to force himself up by using his sword as a staff.

However, it must have been quite a shock, and I slipped to the floor again and again.

I leisurely walked over to Kayden, took his sword, which he couldn’t wrap around with magic, and threw it away.

Ting, Tingle.

The sword flew away and rolled on the floor.

“Kuh… !”

Only then did he seem to realize that he was out of luck.

Facing him looking up at me with empty eyes, I slowly lowered my head.

His whole body was trembling slightly with the shame of losing to the first year, the shame and resentment of the defeat.

“ruler. Now, just listen to me.”

I lowered my face slightly to him and said.

“My, why am I talking like you… ”

He said with a last resort.

“No, then did you really think that you would just lose the duel and move on? If you’re from the Duke of Adan, you probably know this, right? Nope? You started the fight first. You have to take responsibility for that.”

I said harshly, grabbed him by the scruff of his neck and lifted him up.

Then, by spreading soundproofing magic around it, it prevented the sound from leaking out to the outside.

What I’m going to say now is a bit sensitive.

“You will have to pay the price with your life. Just know that what I’m talking about is not the petty threat that the seniors did. Senior Kayden. ”

I grinned.

“life… ? die… ? Shi, if you don’t like it… ?”

Seeing him still unaware of his reflection, I was about to break a bone, but just laughed lightly.

“Then, can I reveal the secret you’ve been hiding so tightly?”

When I recited to him the background settings I discovered while checking his settings earlier, his complexion turned whiter than that of a corpse.

The trembling of the whole body was more than the humiliation of defeat earlier.

“Are you going to do it?”

When I asked again, he nodded as if he didn’t notice that even his lips were quivering.

I smiled with a sigh.

It was the completion of the bait to lure Libya.
