The complete conquest of the smuggling cave.
And after fending off the attack of .
Without even a mont to rest, we hurried back to Korea.
The academy might also get attacked.
It was because of the information that the academy was also attacked while we were being attacked by Cha Soo-yeon and Ji Yoon-jae.
When returning, we received a lot of help from the clan, our collaborating clan.
Shimizu Kenzo and Akiba Miyura actively helped us, and additional personnel were also assigned.
Through a special prisoner transport of criminal Holders, a total of 9 mbers of the clan were transferred to Seoul, and they were transferred as-is to the Korea Holders Association.
And the party mbers who were scattered to their respective affiliations.
I ran straight to the academy without even looking further.
In the academy, which was a ss due to the attack, there was Professor Tak Won-ho alone guarding the campus.
Teacher!!
As soon as I saw him, I ran over.
Instead of the title of Professor that I usually call him, the title of Teacher slipped out.
Of course, his condition was beyond words.
There was a huge stab wound in his chest area, and traces of bloodstains and wounds were engraved here and there.
Not to ntion the countless scratches drawn all over his upper body.
In one word, a battered body.
It was a body condition that indicated traces of intense combat.
Anger rises to the top of my head.
I was already angry that we were attacked at the smuggling cave, but when I saw that the academy was attacked and civilians around were hurt, my anger flared up.
I asked him, clenching my fist.
What What bastard is it. Right now
Calm down.
At that, Professor Tak Won-ho rather cald down in a composed tone.
He is already a senior Holder with a lot of experience and long career.
Even in this situation, he never loses his composure.
Thanks to him, I was also able to calmly settle my mind.
Seeing my teacher with a big injury Ive never seen before, I must have gotten extrely excited without realizing it.
Whats important is from now on. Anyway, we sohow survived.
Professor Tak Won-ho asked continuously with a calm face.
Yes. Did you find all the evidence on site in Japan, and catch the Villain mbers who attacked?
Yes. In particular, this site was Villains new trading place, so catching them and simultaneously dealing financial damage to the bastards will be quite significant.
Well done. Youve done sothing really big. Thanks to you, the Villain side must be quite urgent as well.
Creak-
At the sa ti as those words, the door of the professors office opened.
And soon, three professors walked in.
They were familiar faces.
Yoo Eun-seol, whom I havent seen in a while, Kim Myeong-hyun with a rather dark expression, and a professor with a face I see for the first ti ca in at once.
Like Professor Tak Won-ho, the last professor also had a large wound on one arm.
It seed to be the professor who took the brunt of the attack within the academy.
Oh
Seeing them, I imdiately stood up and bowed my head.
Yoo Eun-seol and Professor Kim Myeong-hyun slightly raised their hands to accept my greeting.
The top brass of the academy and the current strongest at the academy in terms of combat ability.
Very rare figures gathered together.
I briefly wondered if I could be in a seat with such prestigious professors.
Ive heard the news.
Yoo Eun-seol, who was the first to enter, opened her mouth.
Her complexion looked very bad.
Presumably, thats because she saw the victims of the academy with her own eyes on her way here.
Although Yoo Eun-seol has an image of being cold and stiff outwardly, she actually has a warm heart.
She must have had quite a lot of affection for the students she has taught so far and , even though she hasnt shown it outwardly until now.
And at the mont when she was away on an external business trip, many were killed and injured in the attack.
In the original work, she also harbored hatred against due to the Academy Attack Operation, and now that she directly beca an instructor
That emotion was bound to beco more intense.
It happened right when I was away.
At those words, Professor Tak Won-ho slightly bowed his head.
Im sorry. It was clearly an operational failure of the managent. It seems Spies have infiltrated quite deep within the academy. Seeing how the bastards rushed in when Instructor Yoo Eun-seol was out on a business trip, it must be so.
There are spies within the academy.
And this is not just about students.
Clearly, there were also spies hiding among the managent and professors.
At the end of 1st sester, the absurd weakness and negligence of the inspectors in Ha Do-kwons attempted murder case.
At the beginning of 2nd sester, the Kim Do-yoon assault case, where strangely the three of us, , Moon Ga-eun and Kim Do-yoon beca a team.
And in various other incidents involving
Many suspicious points could be discovered.
That ans there are definitely spies on the managent side as well.
This was also information that did not co out clearly in the original work.
The reason why I enthusiastically investigated during this Japan exploration was also to properly detect such hidden spies.
Although late, I will actively participate in the academys future plans. I cannot just stand by and watch this social evil that so rcilessly deals with innocent students and ordinary people.
Yoo Eun-seol declared.
Yoo Eun-seols hatred toward .
That emotion rolled like a snowball and beca the catalyst for her to make an unexpected decision.
The academy had no particular justification to include her as a combat personnel since she was simply recruited as an instructor, but it was as satisfactory as it could get that she voluntarily ca out like this.
Professor Tak Won-ho nodded and turned his eyes.
Professor Kang. May I ask for an explanation?
Yes.
It was the professor with the face I saw for the first ti among the three professors who entered the professors office.
I am a forr full-ti professor of the special division, Kang Dong-wook.
Ah.
At that na, my head flashed for a mont.
Kang Dong-wook.
I definitely had a mory of hearing that na before.
Although an insignificant character without much presence in the original work, after coming here myself I heard that he was quite an influential academy professor.
He is one of the most prominent authorities with the best performance in the summoning (taming) division, and is also a celebrity receiving focused interest from academia.
In particular, Kim Chae-eun, who is quite interested in such famous Holders, I think Ive heard about him a few tis through her as well.
As you all must have heard, this incident involved a large-scale attack by Villain Clans submaster Hwang Seong-yeon and many other Villain clan mbers. And from what I additionally heard, it was also a simultaneous attack on our academy students dispatched to Japan.
Professor Kang Dong-wook put a report and a phone on the desk.
And he played a video.
In the video, there was a mysterious crystal-like item giving off a hazy green light.
What youre seeing now is an item called the Order of Harmony. Its a special academy-owned item that has been secretly buried externally, evaluated by related disciplines as having trendous potential value.
[Order of Harmony].
It was an item na I had never heard before.
Considering Professor Kang Dong-wooks discipline and position, it seed to be a special item specialized for the summoning discipline.
What the Villain aid for in this attack operation was this item. Despite taking on extrely high risk factors, they infiltrated the academy and managed to steal this item.
Professor Kang Dong-wook calmly continued.
The potential value that the Order of Harmony possesses is enormous. Even I, a professional researcher, have not been able to draw out its inherent capabilities, its a legendary-grade item with countless unknown abilities still sealed.
Sotis a lot of effort is needed to unleash the true power of certain items.
Just for the [Forgotten Stone of a Dragon] that I had, it took considerable ti and magic stones to unlock its seal.
The [Order of Harmony] item I just learned about also seed to have such sealing properties.
I dont know how much the Villain Clan will be able to utilize this item, or to what extent they will be able to unleash its power. After all, even our research team hasnt figured out its real power yet.
The look in Professor Kang Dong-wooks eyes darkened as he uttered his last words.
Just that we dont know what will happen when that power is fully unleashed.
Ordinary peoples attack controlling monsters.
Such a disaster could happen at any mont.
Professor Kang Dong-wook assud the worst case scenario.
Thats why we need to assemble our forces as soon as possible and reclaim this item from the Villain.
How so? Yoo Eun-seol asked.
Its easy to say.
Get back the stolen item and take revenge on the .
If only it was possible, it would have been a plan that was implented long before now.
But no one knows the whereabouts of the s base.
As they are composed in a cell-type organization, even the low-ranking clan mbers dont know their base
The clan leaders move their residence using various illegal items.
Unable to locate the exact position, neither the Association nor each clan has been able to launch an annihilation operation so far.
However, Professor Kang Dong-wooks expression seed confident.
Its through this guy.
Professor Kang Dong-wook spread his hand.
Seeing that, I cocked my head.
What is this guy?
Because at first glance, there was nothing in that hand.
But when looking closely, I saw sothing.
Professor Kang Dong-wook slowly held out his hand.
On it, I spotted sothing very tiny, like a speck.
If you dont look very closely, its sothing that is completely invisible.
This thing is a bug called an F-grade monster, a special small-sized monster that can only be found in insect nesting dungeons.
F-grade monster. Bug.
It was a monster na I had never hunted or heard of before.
Professor Kang Dong-wook talked as he looked around at the monster I was seeing for the first ti.
As you can see, this monster is so small that its hard to discern its shape with the naked eye, and it has no magic in its body, making it difficult to detect even with magic sensing.
That alone proved why the gathered professors and I were unaware of its existence here.
Well, it may be an advantage since it has almost no lethal power, but still.
In anticipation of such a situation, I had attached a trained bug to the Order of Harmony item at all tis. I suppose even Hwang Seong-yeon from the Villain who took the item didnt notice this part.
Upon hearing that, I roughly understood why Professor Kang Dong-wook was bringing up this random story.
Not just that the item was simply taken away, but that so special device was installed.
It seed like he wanted to appeal that point
In fact, that explanation alone was insufficient.
What great significance is there in it having no magic? Theres no way to convey the location anyway.
Having no magic makes it difficult to find.
In other words, it ans there is no way for us to locate it either.
The sa goes even if its a trained monster.
[Summoning] tad monsters is one of the combat thods of common tad monster art Holders, but that doesnt an they can identify the current location of the tad monster.
Monster taming is only achieved through a kind of contract and high intimacy, not an affiliation.
However, Professor Kang Dong-wook shook his head at my question.
There is a way. Instead of combat power, they have so characteristics unique only to themselves. Thats why, for bugs
Characteristics?
Professor Kang Dong-wook slowly answered .
Yes. Bugs are small and weak, but there are many of them and communication with their kind is active. Therefore, despite having no magic, through special signals, they can still let their kind figure out direction and location.
Ah!!
When that explanation ca out.
Everyone gathered in the professors office was amazed.
Only then did everyone realize what Professor Kang Dong-wook was trying to say, what it ant.
That is, through this bug attached to the Order of Harmony item We plan to locate the Villains base.
At first glance, the monster seems completely useless.
But by taming it, he had planted a spy to identify the s location.
It was
A kind of biological GPS made through monster taming.
