Vroom.
The car levitated in the air.
"How does it feel? Can you sense the power of the new series-connection magic engine?"
"Yes."
I learned a few things while spending ti with Song Rahee.
First, Song Rahee talks a lot.
And she is a science geek.
That is to say...
"As expected. I knew you would understand as our top student. Usually, magic is connected in parallel, but this engine that connects magic in series is..."
She's a relentless explainer.
Despite having covered a distance that would usually take a 30-minute walk in just 30 seconds, I was quietly listening to Song Rahee's explanations in the car.
"Oh, I've been too focused on explaining things. Let's go inside now."
Once inside, I could see Ersil playing with a doll.
"Oh, you ca along too."
Ersil smiled slyly.
"But did you bring a swimsuit?"
"A swimsuit?"
"Yes, there's a beach near our villa. And English beaches are famous for their beauty."
Ersil said this, crossing her arms and scanning from top to bottom.
"Hmm, but you, Seoha, you naturally have a great face-to-body ratio, so anything should suit you."
"That's right. Our valedictorian has a face and body as if they were crafted by a god."
"Exactly. Professor, you know, not appearing on TV or Internet dia with these looks is almost a cri."
"Indeed."
"Cough, cough cough."
Flustered by Song Rahee and Ersil's shower of complints, I gave an awkward cough.
"By the way, where's Yuhwa?"
"Hong Yuhwa will co directly to the warp gate. She said she had a place to stop by before coming here."
Ersil's eyes glead.
"Speaking of which, you two seem to be getting along well these days."
"You an, Yuhwa and I?"
"Yes. Eating together these days, or Yuhwa seeking out your pictures, or exercising together. There are a lot of rumors amongst the students."
"..."
I felt incredibly wronged.
The reason we're eating together is because Hong Yuhwa insisted on having a al competition with , and the photo-seeking is probably her own way of fostering a sense of rivalry.
As for the exercising together, it's because Hong Yuhwa insisted on it.
"Hmm, from your reaction, it seems it isn't true."
Ersil said with a smirk, her head bobbing up and down as if she was in a good mood.
I stared at Ersil with a strange look in my eyes.

Arriving in England was quick.
This was mainly due to the warp gates established globally, most of which lead through the artificial island where the Korea Hero Academy stands as a transit hub.
A great and illustrious hero had established the academy and conveniently set up warp gates there that connected to the entire world.
So, even though it was rely a club activity, we, the students of the academy, could travel anywhere at any ti.
"Ah, it feels good to be back ho after so long," Ersil remarked with a smile.
Hong Yuhwa, with her haughty expression, crossed her arms and handed off her luggage to her attendant.
"Couldn't any student of the Korea Hero Academy co here whenever they want?"
"I wanted to focus. I've found a competitor I want to beat."
Ersil's bright eyes ford crescents as they t mine.
"...?"
"Yes. I don't feel as competitive towards Kim Seohyun... but strangely enough, I'm extrely competitive when it cos to you, Seoha."
"But Seohyun is strong too."
"I guess, with him, I feel like I can win anyti now?"
"....."
Her point was quite accurate.
Ersil was a master of Illusion Magic. The talent Kim Seohyun possessed was more exceptional, but he had a lot to learn.
Though they both have transcendent masters, lanie who has practiced Illusion Magic for over 1,000 years and the Sorcerer of Heavenly Vision are not the sa.
'He also has martial arts.'
As the martial world collapsed, he needed to learn the Thousand-Year Martial Arts left behind by them.
Kim Seohyun might be weaker for now, but things will change once we move on to the second year.
"But I am strong against illusion magic."
"That's why I'm learning a special skill."
With a sly grin, Ersil spoke.
"So, please stay as our class's top student. During the final exam, I'll defeat you."
"Okay."
I nodded, feeling a slight chill, but then rembered that despite their maturity, Ersil and Hong Yuhwa were still kids.
"But what are we going to do together?"
"Since there are four of us, we can do what we want or take a break."
"What about the club president?"
"Oh, right."
Ersil briefly panicked and glanced over at the club president. Thankfully, the president was observing the surroundings and didn't seem to have heard our conversation.
Then our eyes t.
"Ahem, ahem. My, my mistake. This is my first ti in England."
"So what activity will we be doing today?"
Ersil answered with a beaming smile, and the president pondered for a mont before speaking.
"Since it's our first day, how about we each do our own thing?"
"That sounds good."
I quickly replied.
The location with Tianma's legacy is quite far from the danger.
So, after obtaining the Body Against Heaven, if I could just get past the very early stages, I had planned to co directly to England and retrieve it.
'But there might be sothing else, so I need to go and co back quickly.'
"Hmm, what's the matter? Were you that curious about England?"
"There's a place I want to visit."
"Where? I'll guide you there. As the eldest daughter of the English Illusion Magic Witch and the next head of the family, I'll personally guide you."
Ersil smirked as she said this.
"There's a place I must go alone, I'm afraid."
"Hmm."
Ersil squinted at as if to asure my words.
Suddenly, the Heavenly Demon was beside , gazing at Ersil.
'Heavenly Demon?'
[Hmm, that presence within her. You should be able to sense it now.]
'Are you talking about lanie rhen?'
[Is her na lanie rhen?]
The Heavenly Demon continued to observe Ersil.
Thud.
A sound echoed in my mind, and my vision shifted.
I activated Divine Vision.
And then I looked at Ersil.
Enormous.
Inside Ersil, a massive 'world' revealed itself. A world that a being nad lanie had created over a thousand years in the illusionary world.
At the center of that world,
A silver-haired woman appeared. Her silver irises held a peculiar scale-like design.
lanie rhen.
[...How interesting. Indeed, a successor of the Tianma. But you still lack 'qualification'.]
As those faint words reached , my consciousness drifted away.
And then my vision returned.
'......'
[Master, did you really see it?]
'...Yeah. I'm a bit dizzy though.'
[Deactivate your Divine Vision. A mortal gazing upon a transcendent being always cos at a cost.]
Rubbing my eyes, I switched off the Divine Vision.
A surprised Ersil stared at .
"......So, the descendants of the Tianma can see even this?"
"I'm just a bit unique."
I sighed.
"......Does your going alone have to do with the Tianma?"
"Yeah. But do you know about the Tianma?"
"Yes, my master told about it."
"Really? Can you tell about it later?"
"Yes, that much I can do. Is it dangerous? I can help you."
Ersil grinned mischievously.
"You saw my master just now, didn't you? Though it's for a short period, I can use her power."
In fact, Ersil can draw on lanie's power.
However, the aftermath is that she can't move and has to stay in the infirmary for about a week.
"I'm sorry."
"There's no helping it. But once this is over, make sure to spend ti with ."
Ersil chirped joyfully.
"Ah, I rember there's a saying in Korea. If you go sowhere, they treat you to a full-course al. I'll treat you to a full-course al in the English style."
"......Sure."
I nodded uneasily.
Because, after all, England was notorious for its poor cooking.

Inside the dungeon.
The Black Divine Martial Art's dungeon is hardly dangerous
'Even those traps are harmless, as long as one is careful.'
The dungeon of Black Divine Martial Art is exceptionally benevolent.
Once again, I reviewed the dungeon layout in my mind.
Still, nothing that could be called a hint ca to mind.
'So, is it reacting to the Body Against Heaven?'
I walked further into the dungeon. Its structure was familiar. I must have been here over a hundred tis.
Dodging traps, solving quizzes, I moved deeper in.
An old altar.
On it lay a single book.
Black Divine Martial Arts.
'...So it really is Black Divine Martial Arts. The book that the previous owner used.'
The Heavenly Demon spoke.
[But it's strange. I can't sense the spirit of the previous owner around here...?]
"Really?"
Although the Heavenly Demon said it couldn't sense it, I could clearly feel it.
The Conceptual Stat, Body Against Heaven.
As the na suggests, it governs its power.
Even if the previous owner, known as the Tianma, were to appear here, when it cos to controlling the energy of Body Against Heaven, I won't lose to her.
I reached out to the booklet inscribed with Black Divine Martial Art.
And I drew out the Body Against Heaven.
-AAARRGH!
A scream rang out.
And that energy coursed through and entered my body. A very familiar energy. It was precisely Body Against Heaven.
enjoy! :)
nah not the england slander
