Became a Genius Shikigami at the Academy

Episode 7

[This is Han Kang-yoon.]

[Honestly, I thought I would quit… … .]

It hurts my ears a bit.

It was the first time since the Academy was established that I had dropped from Class A to Class D, so I was desperately trying to feel the feeling of being a celebrity rather than a celebrity.

[Ah, that senior… … .]

[Maybe I won’t be like that?]

[Come on, speak small. You may hear it.]

It seemed that among the newly enrolled freshmen, I was regarded as a bad example that should not be imitated.

It was roughly the expected reaction, so I went to the auditorium where the entrance ceremony and the opening ceremony were held, regardless.

[A hearty welcome to all new students who have just entered the school. I’m not going to talk long. You will be here… … ]

A huge two-story hall.

On the first floor, figures from the school side, distinguished guests from the outside, and first-year students who were admitted to the school were lined up in a long line, and on the second floor next to it were the second and third graders, respectively.

Meanwhile, a sharp gaze was felt from the first floor. It was definitely a memorable face.

‘It’s Hanseo.’

A supporting character who comes from the same nursery as Han Kang-yoon and enters the first year this time.

They were staring at me as to how they found them in this huge crowd.

‘It’s the first time I’ve actually seen your face from my point of view.’

Of course I knew why.

Han Kang-yoon was angry at the fact that he was deceiving his situation and being unreasonable to support the maintenance costs of the orphanage.

‘Perhaps they heard the rumors from the surrounding students.’

As Han Seo-ah herself is a character with a high weight, in the original work, Han Seo-ah was often portrayed angry with Han Kang-yoon. In a way, it was a piece of cake for a later event.

‘Of course I’m not going to do that.’

As in the original, it is a specification to remain in a cold war state for months.

From the beginning, I have a strong supporter named Seo Ji-an. Perhaps we can move on to explaining the situation better.

‘And obviously, the one in the middle of Han Seo-ah’s back row… … .’

Yoo Ha-on. He is the playable character and main character of Exorcism 1. I looked for him and looked away.

And tilted his head.

“Why not?”

Maybe my memory is wrong. Anyway, the last time I played the initial game was about 2 years ago.

But in the back row, in the back row. The man presumed to be Yoo Ha-on did not exist.

After scanning all the seats like that, I realized that something was terribly wrong.

‘none. Yoo Ha-on.’

The reason didn’t matter. Because Yoo Ha-on was an indispensable character at the end of this game.

I waited for the event to end as soon as possible, not paying attention to how the entrance ceremony and the opening ceremony were going.

and.

“Now, sophomores, go to the classroom according to their class! Everyone must gather by 9:30!”

As soon as the waiting time came, I ignored the guide and moved to the first floor where the first graders were.

Tub, Tub!

tick.

“Hey!”

“Ah, what is it?”

Because the hall was so crowded, I bumped into someone in the process, but it was not the time to worry about that.

‘none. really.’

First-year students who follow their guide. There was no figure of Yoo Ha-on in any of them.

Then, someone’s face caught my eye.

Originally, it was a single female student who occupied the position where Yoo Ha-on should have been.

‘That’s… … .’

A ponytail-type black tail and a soft impression that gives a favorable impression just by looking at it. I’m sure I’ve never seen it in the original, but somehow I feel a sense of déjà vu.

And crucially, she is wearing something very familiar around her slightly exposed neck.

It was a necklace with a shape very similar to the memento left by Yoo Ha-on’s parents.

‘Maybe?’

turuk.

Having lost sight of her, I grabbed her by the shoulder as she was about to follow her guide and tried to empathize. And luckily, I found out that my guess was correct.

【Yuhaon】

▶Level 21

▶ Ability

【Health: C+】

【Spirit power: B-】

【Method: C】

【Spirit: B-】

▶Characteristics (4/10)

[Limit Break (S)]

【Blue Lighthouse (A)】

【Growth Acceleration (B)】

【Agile Hunter (C+)】

Breaking the limit, a characteristic that leads to the main character’s proprietary patent, regardless of the series.

A blue lighthouse that lets you instinctively choose better options.

The main and supporting characters are tolerant of growth acceleration, which is the characteristic of growth.

The figure was the same as that of Yoo Ha-on I remembered. However, the most important thing was missing.

‘Unidentified properties, no.’

Perm (破魔) is the only characteristic that is positioned as an EX grade in Exorcism 1.

It exists as an unconfirmed characteristic at first, but it is a unique characteristic of Yoo Ha-on that reveals itself as the story progresses.

The one that was in line with Yuhaon’s existence value didn’t exist now.

“I, there.”

Yoo Ha-on, who was suddenly caught by me, was panicking. Already my reason was completely blown away.

“why… … .”

I looked at her with an empty face, and then staggered out of the hall as if my soul had left.

This world, no matter what went wrong, was completely wrong.

***

In the auditorium where Han Kang-yoon disappeared, someone hurriedly approached Yoo Ha-on, who was standing blankly. It was Baek Eun-seo, who recently became friends as a freshman.

“Hey, are you okay? What is that person?”

“that… … . I do not know. He’s someone I can’t remember.”

Yoo Ha-on was equally embarrassed. At first, I thought he might not be able to remember, but no matter how much he thought about it, he didn’t know.

‘But why do you have such a face… … .’

Because it was an expression full of sincerity to be an illusion, Yoo Ha-on couldn’t shake off Kang Yoon’s hand.

Unless I’m confused with someone else, there’s only one case I can think of.

‘I don’t know over there, but does that person know me?’

It was not unusual for Yu Ha-on.

Because his birth was unclear and he had no relatives, such a relationship was seldom possible.

‘Well, then maybe.’

He has been searching for his past all along, but so far no clue has been found.

But he may know something about his past self. Then you should never miss it.

“If you ever want to do something, tell me. I will give you a very harpoon.”

“it’s okay. It wasn’t threatened or anything. just… … .”

I’m just a little concerned. Yoo Ha-on glanced in the direction where Kang Yoon had disappeared.

***

You’ve probably seen this scene in movies.

Even in the midst of dozens of bullets raining down, the main character’s party evades them safely, or a zombie, which others seem too heavy, tore apart like a piece of paper in front of the main character.

In reality, it is a contrived and nonsensical story.

But people don’t tackle it much. That’s the story from the beginning, and that’s the main character.

‘Of course, even if that is the case, a device is needed for the least convincing.’

Such as disturbing the field of vision with a smoke screen, or the protagonist having a past as a soldier who excelled in battle.

‘And in Exorcism 1, that was the perm characteristic.’

EX grade called out of specification.

The perm characteristic can be said to be the number one contribution to helping the main character and the supporting actors around him somehow get through the situation in a fight with a slim chance of winning.

For example, Deus Ex Machina, a cheat key in the course of the story.

But what if not?

‘In all situations to come, there must be a hole somewhere.’

In the future, the perm characteristic itself is a strategy, even enemies exist, so it means that you have said everything.

‘If it was a normal trait, there is a possibility that it can be obtained even if it is not now.’

However, the perm characteristics are different. It is a trait that is impossible to have unless it is innate from the beginning.

“after.”

Exorcism 1 is an old game, so it draws a fairly standard storyline. In other words, inevitably, the tight tightrope of the main characters and their party follows.

If the tightrope had failed due to the lack of perm characteristics, what would happen after that was obvious enough that you could see with your eyes closed.

‘The main character dies during the supporting role.’

And what if it happens again and again and finally the allies run out of power?

‘Can the story go on to the end?’

I was immersed in endless troubles, and someone started approaching me from afar.

I didn’t care, but the owner of the popular chuck stopped in front of me and talked to me.

“What are you doing here?”

The turquoise short hair that fell down to her shoulders caught the light and cluttered her vision.

It was Seo Ji-an.

“I have something to think about.”

“You can see that.”

Seo Ji-an, who took out her cell phone as if it was ridiculous, showed the screen to me and said.

“… Thirty minutes have passed? Aren’t you going?”

It was then that I was able to recall the words the leader had shouted in the auditorium earlier.

[Everyone must gather by 9:30!]

I completely forgot.

Embarrassed, I asked Seo Ji-an, who gave me a pathetic gaze.

“you?”

“Special consultation.”

In the end, it meant that I was the only one late.
