Possessed an Academy Security Guard

20 – 020. The Two Reasons (2)

At the presence of an angel that suddenly appeared in front of my eyes, I gently grabbed the dagger that was worn around my waist.

‘Angel? Did angels exist in the original work?’

A beautiful figure that captivates the viewer.

However, I couldn’t be careless. Existing in this place that was a closed room a while ago means that it could be a monster that occurred in a dungeon.

Watching the angel’s movements, I slowly took my posture. So that I can activate Talisman in case of emergency.

However, the angel seemed completely unwilling to fight. He just looks at me with a bewildered expression. Soon, those half-parted lips begin to tremble.

– Shake!

The morning star’s breath fell to the floor with a loud metal sound. As I looked towards it, the angel opened his mouth with even more bewilderment.

“Oh, that. That is.”

An infinitely trembling voice. The eyes of the angel who met me lost their way and wandered.

– Flutter.

The next moment, an angel crouched down on the altar covered himself with his wings. As if trying to hide from me.

“…… Uh?”

The angel’s wings trembled. A small muttered voice leaked through the feathers.

“…… That, so What did you tell me to do at a time like this? Manual. It was clearly stated in the manual. Let’s see, if you inevitably come into contact with a being from a lower dimension, choose one of the following five examples to manipulate your memory……. Well, by the way, that possessed chair isn’t from this dimension, is it? Uh? Then what should I do?”

A small, fast-paced voice. It was hard to hear what he was saying because his pronunciation was unclear, but judging from his attitude, he seemed to have no hostility towards the angel in front of him. No, more than not hostility, it was just like he was scared.

“Over there.”

“Hey!”

At my call, the feathers rose stiffly and the angel crouched down even more.

“What should I do? If the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure catches me contacting the possessed chair…….”

“What?”

I doubted my ears for a moment at the ‘word’ that came out of the angel’s mouth. However, there is no way I could have misunderstood such a distinctive word.

“Hey.”

I called an angel.

“Hey. Angel.”

I called once more because there was no answer.

“Put your head out. Look over here.”

At the continued call, the angel stuck out his head through his wings. The appearance of an angel with tears in his eyes.

However, I didn’t feel sorry at all. Anger took precedence over such emotions.

“What did you say just now?”

“Eh, yes?”

“Don’t pretend. The Heavenly Demon of Pleasure must have said something.”

With the dagger drawn, he approached the angel with great strides. She didn’t think it might be dangerous. The angel in front of me was an unknown being, but I couldn’t make a rational judgment because his head was full of heat.

The angel stepped back with a frightened expression. However, this is a closed space. Before I could take a few steps, the angel facing the wall looked at me with trembling eyes.

-Gasp!

“Wow!”

Caught an angel by the collar. It was a thin outfit that had nothing to do with the collar, but I roughly gripped the collar roughly near my neck. Because of that, the angel’s heart was exposed to the whole world, but it was not the time to pay attention to such trivial things.

The angel did not resist at all. Rather than he had no will to resist, he seemed as if he was unable to resist itself. However, even with that cooperative attitude, the anger boiling within me did not intend to go away in the slightest.

“Are you the subordinate of the Demon of Pleasure? What’s the matter with that paper-wrapper’s henchmen here? Why, because I was trying to take advantage of the opportunity, did you even order me to collect it so that he couldn’t eat it?”

“…… I cannot tell you.”

“I can’t tell you the damn thing. It’s written all over his face.”

The shameless attitude raised the tide.

Now I’m doing it, but I’m even putting my hands on the existing technology. I couldn’t help but laugh because I was so dumbfounded by that petty act.

“Hey, let’s ask one thing.”

“Well, I can’t answer the question-.”

“That bastard, what the f*ck did I do so wrong to do this to me?”

I asked the angel. Just pointing out that probability, just a few comments and one argument, is it that bad?

Does it make sense to have a person who has lived a fine life for that reason be possessed by a f*cking world and interfere with every single thing he or she does?

I asked the angel in front of me as if shouting in anger, but the angel avoided my gaze and just shook his head.

“No matter what you ask, I can’t answer your question.”

“…… Under. sh*t, that’s it.”

I slammed the dagger down with all my might.

-Kwajik!

“Hey!”

The dagger was lodged in the wall right next to the angel’s head. As I gave strength, the finely shattered crystal pieces fell down.

‘The fact that they didn’t resist after being threatened this far doesn’t mean that they didn’t resist, but they couldn’t.’

Then the initiative is on this side. He said in a low voice, exerting more force on the hand that was holding the angel’s collar.

“Your name?”

“Ah, Arael…”

“Okay. Arael. Contact him right now.”

“Eh, yes?”

“Contact the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure. If he were subordinate, he wouldn’t have a means of contact. I will build the negotiations myself.”

“Well, if I do that, I might die… ….”

“Or would you die right here at my hands?”

As I drew the dagger and put it to my throat, the angel screamed and wept.

A situation in which you intimidate an opponent who has no resistance. However, there was no reluctance at all. It had been a long time since his sense of values, such as morality and ethics, had already evaporated from the fury that boiled to the tip of his head.

“If you kill me!”

The angel hurriedly exclaimed, apparently realizing that I was serious.

“If you kill me, the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure will notice right away! Other angels too!”

“That’s great. If he comes here, we can negotiate directly.”

“No! No matter what you do, the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure cannot appear in front of you! No other angel will come but me! Oh, in the first place, we angels are strictly forbidden from contacting the possessed person-“

“Really?”

He laughed at the tempting information. The angel belatedly covered my mouth with surprised eyes, but what could I do? What you’ve already heard

“You’re forbidden to run into me? So, are you totally screwed right now?”

“That, that… ….”

Looking at the angel who couldn’t speak, I quickly grasped the situation.

‘The angel in front of me is the subordinate of the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure. The goal is probably to retrieve the morning star’s breath.’

‘From his point of view, he probably didn’t want to see me monopolize the opportunity and go on a winning streak. You’re a naive classmate as always.’

‘But why did you send your men instead of stepping out yourself? In the first place, the original author must be a god-like being in this world. Is it impossible for him to retrieve or destroy the bracelet from a distance without having to send a subordinate?’

‘Come to think of it, it’s not that the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure won’t appear in front of me, but that it can’t appear. Does that mean that there are restrictions that even a divine being can’t go against?’

‘If you think about it, most of the way he f*cked me up was indirect. Although he set his stats badly or made quest rewards tight, he never did any direct harm.’

‘Even if you are a god, direct interference is impossible. It’s a setting that often appears in ice novels. If such a restriction actually exists, and that’s why the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure sent his subordinates instead of stepping out in person…….’

The current situation must have been an unexpected situation even for the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure. Maybe that’s why the angel is in trouble like this.

As I thought about it, a smile naturally drew on my lips.

This might have been a much better opportunity than the morning star’s breath.

“If I kill you, the Demon of Pleasure will find out right away, does that mean he doesn’t know that I met you yet?”

“…… I can’t tell you.”

“You better answer properly. If anything, you can poke it somewhere and check it yourself.”

“Ugh… ….”

The angel’s expression rotted away. I felt it a little while ago, but the angel in front of me had no talent at all to hide its expression. Just by looking at his expression, it was obvious what he was thinking.

“…… That’s right. Neither he nor the other angels have observed this place yet. Ha, but if you kill me, you won’t be fine either?”

“Stop bragging. If he could have done me any direct harm, he would have done it right away. He doesn’t want to kill me, he wants to see me hit and run. That’s why he didn’t come here to steal the opportunity in such a petty way. Is not it?”

“… ….”

“It’s no use even if you close your mouth. Because it shows on your face.”

I picked up the breathing sound of the morning star that the angel had dropped. Then, a low exclamation escaped from the angel’s mouth.

“Let’s ask one question. Failing to retrieve this bracelet, and having the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure find out about my identity. Which of the two is more difficult for you?”

“…… The one whose identity was discovered.”

“Then it’s easy to talk about. Won’t you make a deal with me?”

“Deal, yo?”

I pointed my bracelet at the angel who tilted her head as if to say something.

“I will take this bracelet. To the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure, I took it first and couldn’t retrieve it. Anyway, make up an appropriate excuse and report it. If you do, I will not attempt to contact other angels or demons of pleasure through you. Of course, I will keep quiet about the fact that you revealed your identity to me.”

“…… All right. I will.”

“Okay. In addition, if the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure tries to do something nasty next time like today, let me know in advance. So that we can prepare and respond.”

“That, that can’t be!”

The angel shouted with a desperate expression.

“You’re asking me to act as a spy, right? I can’t do that! I’m sure you’ll get caught!”

“That’s none of my business.”

“I can’t… ….”

“From what I hear, it’s not like they’re watching me 24/7. Wouldn’t it be fine if I secretly informed you when no one was looking like now?”

“It’s not as easy as it sounds…….”

The angel looked at me as he was speechless. He probably wants me to take his circumstances into account, but he doesn’t.

“You better judge quickly. If you waste time, you might be caught by the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure or another angel, right?”

As I smiled as if I had no intention of paying attention, the angel’s expression became even more complex.

***

A huge temple made of white marble.

– Woo woo woo woo.

In an instant, the space was distorted, and a blue gate appeared in front of the temple.

An angel emerged from within. The angel who just passed through the gate, Arael, sighed deeply.

She glanced back at the gate. There was no one in the splendid crystal cave beyond the gate. The possessor who had threatened him a moment ago had already left.

Arael bit his lip in the sadness rising up.

The thirteen angels who help the creator of this world manage the world. Among them, Arael was the youngest angel who had just become an angel. The first mission given to her was the recovery of the ‘morning star’s breath’.

The breath of the morning star is an element designed to be used not now, but in the distant future. It was something that shouldn’t have appeared at this point. I heard the importance of this work from the angel who delivered her mission. She knew that she must never fail.

However, she failed.

It wasn’t just a failure either, even when his identity was discovered by a possessed person he should never have encountered.

Arrael’s body trembled. If her older sisters or the creator who made her an angel know this, she will not be able to escape severe punishment.

In particular, Ahn Su-ho is a possessed person whom the Creator pays special attention to. In the worst case, you may even have to prepare for the extinction of your existence. Thinking about it made me feel as if the tears I had been holding back would flow.

‘I’d rather open the gate and run away as soon as I run into them. If it was, it wouldn’t have turned out like this.’

Angels cannot directly harm beings in the underworld. It was a rule of the world that could never be broken. It was possible to affect only the mind, such as erasing memories with the power of the manager, but even that did not work on the possessed person, Ahn Su-ho.

In that situation, the best decision was to get out quickly. However, what is the use of judging properly now? It’s after I’ve already been caught by him.

“Arrael? You’re back.”

Arael turned his head at the voice he heard from behind. Soon, her expression darkened even more.

“How was your first summer? It was my first assignment, so I was very excited. Can you tell me your impressions?”

White bobbed hair, like pure white snowy fields, and golden eyes with intelligent light. Above her head, a halo that shone more brilliantly than Arael’s was slowly spinning.

“Ramiel sister… ….”

Ramiel. Among the thirteen angels, she belonged to the second rank and was the one who gave this mission to Arael.

When she faced her, Arael’s body naturally trembled. Even if they were the same angel, there was a difference in hierarchy. Even more so, now she has failed in her mission. She was in a situation where she couldn’t keep her composure because of Arael’s weak personality.

“Arrael. Why are you so trembling? What’s going on?”

“That, that… ….”

Arael closed her eyes tightly. Arael reported on her mission’s failure in the spirit of reporting something that couldn’t be hidden anyway.

Of course, even during that time, she did not report that she had met Ahn Su-ho. As Ahn Su-ho advised Ramiel, she said, ‘The possessed went first and couldn’t retrieve her bracelet.’

“…… Indeed. That’s how it happened.”

After finishing her report, Arael looked at Ramiel. Her reaction will determine her own treatment. When she thought so, even though she was an angel, cold sweat broke out in her hands.

“It’s unfortunate that we failed, but there’s nothing we can do about it. Thank you for your effort. Arael.”

“Uh, yes?”

Arael asked with a dumbfounded face at the unexpectedly plain reaction.

“Arrael’s failure was because the possessed had gone to the dungeon beforehand, right? It was I, not Arrael, who set the recovery time. Arael only followed my words, so this failure can be said to be my responsibility.”

“Ra, Ramiel sister?”

“So you don’t have to worry about Arael. I will also tell the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure that it was my negligence. Good job on your first mission, Arael. You must have been very nervous, but please go back and rest in peace.”

Arael, who thought that he would be punished, could not accept this situation. Afterwards, she was able to turn her steps back with her bewildered face only after Ramiel told her she was okay twice more.

Looking at Arael flying away with her helpless gesture, Ramiel smiled softly.

‘You did something sorry for Arrael. Her experience of failing her first mission will scar her for the rest of her life.’

But she couldn’t help it. If she had been an angel other than Arael, she would never have failed in her mission, even if the recovery was delayed.

‘Maybe I will be put on probation for a while because I am responsible for this incident, but it was necessary. In order for him to overcome the hardships that were scheduled in the future, only the breath of the morning star had to go to him.’

Ramiel believed that her Arael would fail in her mission and gave her her mission. She didn’t expect that in the meantime she would even discover the existence of an angel, but she was rather good.

The existence of angels and the fact that angels and demons of pleasure cannot directly harm themselves.

That knowledge will serve as an important criterion for Ahn Su-ho in the future. Whatever it was, if it helped him even a little, it was a satisfactory result for Ramiel.

Ramiel looked down at the underworld with the power of an angel. Ahn Soo-ho, who came out of the dungeon, was filled with the breathing of the morning star.

Looking at that scene, Ramiel gave a deep smile.

‘Please, struggle hard.’
