I Became the Only Non-mage in the Academy

Chapter 211: Boundary



Chapter 211: Boundary

Seo Ga-yeon was a child expected to achieve great things, just like others her age.

Her parents had excessive expectations of her, especially as the eldest daughter who was admitted to the Korean Hero School.

“Even though I barely made it in.”

Maybe, if things had gone as they were supposed to, if she hadn’t met Lee Seo-ha, she might not have been here.

Her real ability was a power that even transcendents coveted, but until that power manifested, she was nothing more than someone far below average.

Therefore, to Seo Ga-yeon, Lee Seo-ha was nothing short of a benefactor.

Even if she gave him her whole self, it wouldn’t be enough. That’s what she thought.

“Though sometimes he can be really annoying.”

Suddenly, he’d laugh and play pranks. Despite knowing her feelings, he’d reject her and then flirt with other girls.

She felt that she could live a lifetime of happiness with just Lee Seo-ha, but it seemed that wasn’t the case for him.

Still, it didn’t matter. The fact that he looked at her, Seo Ga-yeon, and cherished her didn’t change.

“So I held it in…….”

But eventually, she exploded.

It was because of something Ershil said.

“Did you know? Seo-ha’s lips are really soft.”

Teasingly. The casually thrown words made Seo Ga-yeon lose her composure. She lost her rationality for a moment and spoke recklessly.

She regretted it, fearing that Lee Seo-ha would think poorly of her.

However, Lee Seo-ha didn’t.

Instead, he apologized.

The problem came afterward, though.

When she heard that Hong Yu-hwa was dating Lee Seo-ha, her mind went blank.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say she lost the will to live. Even if the world were to end tomorrow, Seo Ga-yeon wouldn’t have been as shocked.

“The real problem came afterward…….”

She got too excited.

When Hong Yu-hwa said she was fine with it, she immediately dragged Lee Seo-ha away.

“Hopefully, he didn’t think badly of me.”

More than anything else, she didn’t want Lee Seo-ha to think she was too eager or had strong desires.

It was because she grew up watching her parents. Her mother had a strong libido, and even when her father screamed, she would forcefully, forcefully do it.

“Let’s do it next time.”

At Lee Seo-ha’s words, countless thoughts swirled in Seo Ga-yeon’s mind. Should she give in here? Would Lee Seo-ha hate her for this? But Seo Ga-yeon soon made up her mind.

This time, she decided to yield.

Fortunately, I managed to get away from Seo Ga-yeon midway.

The reason was simpler than I thought.

Since Seo Ga-yeon and I shared a mental connection, she understood that I urgently needed to go somewhere, so she let me go.

“I’ll let it slide this time.”

“…….”

I couldn’t say anything.

Because Seo Ga-yeon’s mental world was too strong.

-Should I tie him up somewhere so he can’t escape?

-But Seo-ha would hate that. Maybe I should monopolize him the first time and then, from then on, make sure he can’t flirt with other girls by draining him every day?

-I heard guys are fine after being drained two or three times.

I couldn’t say anything.

“Two or three times won’t be enough.”

It was because of my talent, “Infinite Stamina (S).”

When I spent my first night with Hong Yu-hwa, I almost knocked her out, and even then, it wasn’t enough to calm me down.

“I’ll be back as soon as possible.”

“Okay. I’ll be waiting.”

I didn’t need to specify where.

Well, I’d figure out the place when the time came. Booking a nearby hotel wouldn’t be a bad idea.

After calming Seo Ga-yeon down, I climbed out of the building through the window. Inside the building, Kim Ara, Seolhwa Ryeon, and Kim Seo-hyun were still there.

To avoid being seen by others, I moved quickly with Hwan Yeom Shinbo and headed toward the warp gate.

There weren’t many people in front of the warp gate.

“Isn’t that the guy from YouTube?”

“Huh? Who… Is that, Lee Seo-ha?”

… There was a commotion in front of me.

I pulled my hoodie down, feeling embarrassed. Luckily, there weren’t many people, so my turn came quickly.

“Where would you like to go?”

“North Korea, Pyongyang, please.”

“Sure.”

I arrived in Pyongyang in an instant.

Instead of the typical city smog, I was met with a clean, smoky smell from the surrounding mountains and screams coming from all directions.

… What’s going on?

“Aaaaaahhh!!”

“It’s a t-t-terror attack!!”

What was this? This was ridiculous.

Even as I thought that, I stepped forward, inserting Black Heaven into the White Rouge.

In retrospect, this was a natural situation. The Mines, wanting to materialize humans’ negative emotions for otherworldly beings, instigated terror attacks, and villains assisted them out of their own desires, causing chaos in the city.

It was an era where terrorism was no longer someone else’s problem but my own.

However, it was something I hadn’t experienced much of in Korea, where it had almost been eradicated.

“It’s been a while.”

In Seoul, the Masked Man and Lee Seo-ha alternately handled these issues. Seolhwa Ryeon also helped out a lot.

At some point, when the number of Mines and villains decreased.

The association members also stepped forward.

I placed the White Rouge on my shoulder.

-What’s this, a hero? But he doesn’t seem like one.

A Mine looked at me. He spoke casually, as if confident that even if the people here tried to escape, he could catch them all.

“They’ve set up a barrier.”

There were three Mines nearby.

But they were all of the mid-tier level.

I casually walked forward and reached into my subspace.

-What’s this, a subspace? You must be from a rich family.

-A subspace pocket? An artifact? Whatever it is, it doesn’t matter. Nowadays, anything related to space is disappearing from the market…

I took out a mask from the subspace. The moment I did, I felt the Mines flinch.

Although Lee Seo-ha had been trending on YouTube recently, this mask was different. It started moving this spring, capturing high-tier Mines and villains. Even the Nazi Empire was keeping an eye on the person who wore this mask.

“That’s why some kind of vigilante group was formed.”

I put on the mask.

Hyeonhok’s Faceless Mask.

It was a mask that made it impossible for anyone who saw it to identify the wearer.

-It’s the vigilante! There’s no way the Masked Man could be moving this early….!

-…A mask that hides the user’s information, an A-rank artifact… Why, why is the Masked Man here so soon…?

The three Mines muttered in disbelief. Their awareness expanded. I could see over a hundred Mines with my Divine Sight.

Pyongyang was a large city. It might seem small compared to China, but it’s still the capital of a country. I could feel the presence of many Mines.

“How long will it take?”

I took out a coat.

The black coat that Ershil gave me fit perfectly. I threw the hoodie I was wearing into the subspace.

Sssssss.

Shadows began to rise. Not shadows, no, they couldn’t be defined as shadows. They were everything that was denied, yet they embraced, engulfed in scorching black flames.

I looked at the Mines.

There was no will to resist in them. Even without releasing it, my presence, which had reached the highest level, was already suppressing them.

As I looked at them, I thought.

“I guess it’s okay to reveal it now.”

That Lee Seo-ha was the Masked Man.

That Masked Man was Lee Seo-ha. But there was no need to reveal it.

Sssssss.

The blackness moved. I passed by them.

-Wh-what! The, the shadow is moving!!

-W-why isn’t my magic working!!

Screams echoed.

The screams started from behind.

-S-save me!! Th-the shadow-like thing!!

-Everyone, get away from the shadows… Aaaargh!!

The screams that started from behind soon spread in all directions.

I just walked.

The black flames embedded in my body, the stars, began to rotate. The nine stars resonated with each other and began to emit shadows. That was all.

-W-why, father!

-Why, why are you abandoning us!!

The Mines screamed.

The villains screamed.

In the black space above, those who hadn’t been devoured stood dazed, watching the current phenomenon.

The Absolute Stat Black was the evolved form of the Energy of Defying Heaven. It denied everything like Defying Heaven. Yet, it embraced the black flames.

“The word ‘black’ suits it best.”

Defying Heaven, Black Flames, Shadows. It didn’t define any of them. It’s just black. But it embraced everything.

After using it once, I could guess what kind of power it was.

“Black……. A color where everything has mixed together.”

Therefore, it denies everything, embraces everything, and burns everything. That was its power.

Tap, tap.

About three minutes passed.

And yet, the entire ground beneath Pyongyang had turned pitch black.

The screams of the Mines could no longer be heard. The screams of the villains, well. I couldn’t tell if they had helped the Mines or were with them of their own volition.

“They must be left.”

They would have moved the moment they saw the blackness. Mines could be detected and killed with the blackness, but villains couldn’t be completely eradicated.

If I took care of them, it would be done quickly. But if I tried to take care of all of them, it would take too much time.

Ssssss.

The blackness that had covered the ground all gathered under my shadow again. I removed the mask.

I looked up at the sky. It was a clear sky.

I counted the number of Mines that had died from the blackness a moment ago.

“1,593.”

It was an eerily large number.

“It’s not bad.”

No, this power might surpass all the other powers I had gained so far.

Of course, it’s hard to increase that number.

I smiled as I headed toward my destination.
