I Don’T Have Any Magic Power But I’M Having A Blast At The Academy 76

From Noble mtl dot com
A robust man with his eyes covered by white bandages.
What emanated from him was not magic but ‘magi.’
“Mi, mine······!”
Eungaye, who jumped up from her seat, raised her hand to the sword hilt.
Whether the blind man could see it or not, he briefly glanced at Eungaye, then sat down and asked me.
“You brought her along without informing me?”
“It’s confidential.”
Meeting with mines was a strictly confidential matter. Mines were beings that must be eradicated by the Transcendent Society, so there was nothing good about letting them know in advance that I was meeting one.
Nevertheless, I had brought Eungaye along to persuade this man.
“Gayae, sit.”
“Still, mines······”
“It’s okay. She knows everything.”
With a puzzled look, Eungaye alternated between me and Main, then furrowed her brows at my indifferent gaze and let go of the black handle.
“Ah, I don’t know what’s what.”
Eungaye, tilting her head, moved to sit next to me. She then eyed the man cautiously. Seeing him smiling like a calm cat that day, the man finally spoke.
“How on earth did you manage to contact us?”
In truth, the man felt extremely bewildered at the moment.
It was because the organization he belonged to was a secretive group unknown to anyone in the world unless they were a member.
Moreover, within that group, even the members often didn’t recognize each other’s faces unless they were part of the leadership.
Yet, the young man before him had casually reached out to the leadership of that secretive group. It was a situation that left the man extremely flustered. However, he could deduce what had happened through the next words spoken.
“I found out through Norton.”
“…”
The man fell silent for a moment.
Norton had once been among them, but he was certainly not someone to disclose information. However, with clear evidence in front of him, it was hard to deny.
With a puzzled expression, the man with tilted head asked, “Are you saying that Norton, who was once part of our organization, made contact?”
“Yes.”
I lightly grabbed Eungaye’s shoulder and exerted anti-magic.
Eungaye’s boiling magic subsided like rain-soaked flames.
“Why…?”
Eungaye turned to me with a look of incomprehension.
It was no wonder, as Norton had joined hands with Georg and attacked Eungaye.
For her, the fact that Norton, who had been part of that organization, was in this situation meeting me was simply incomprehensible. I shook my head as I looked at Eungaye.
“It doesn’t matter. Norton acted alone in attacking Eungaye.”
“That’s right. We have no information regarding Eungaye’s case. It’s been a long time since we lost contact with Norton.”
“Fine. I understand.”
As Eungaye calmed down, I had been looking at the blind man who had remained calm all along.
[Encounter with the Band of Banmain, Undemon.]
[A reward of 500 SP will be given.]
‘Undemon.’
The organization to which the man belonged, Undemon, peculiarly did not antagonize people.
They were not individuals who willingly became mines.
Moreover, they had not made any pacts with demons.
They had been forcibly turned into mines by someone.
Mines made by mines.
Demonmakers, by August.
Those forcibly turned into mines by August were called ‘Demonspawn’ and became August’s subordinates.
Undemon was a group created by Demonspawn who had escaped August’s grasp.
And among those Demonspawn, many harbored strong resentment towards Georg.
So, it was believable.
There is a saying, “The enemy of my enemy is my friend.”
‘Even if they are not superior in strength, they are first-rate in character.’
The man in front of me was a formidable figure.
He was so sensitive to his surroundings that not even the sharp-eyed Eungaye could detect him following her.
Moreover, with the help of the “Undemon,” he had enough power to capture Georg.
“Do you really know how to kill Georg?”
“Yes, I do.”
Georg wouldn’t die even if his heart was pierced or his throat cut.
He had been granted ‘immortality’ from the demons under certain ‘conditions.’
If he failed to meet those conditions, Georg could no longer be resurrected.
And I knew very well about his conditions.
It was closely related to his incessant creation of ‘vengeful spirits’ that opposed him in all directions.
“What is that method?”
“I cannot tell you. However, I can assure you that I can definitely kill him.”
“······.”
The man fell silent for a moment.
I realized that even though he had no eyes, he was staring at me intently.
“Haesol. If you don’t reveal it, we won’t help you.”
I chuckled at the man’s words.
“Are you trying to threaten me?”
“You can interpret it that way.”
“Absurd.”
“···What?”
The man’s mouth hung open in surprise as if he didn’t expect me to curse.
“It seems you are mistaken. It’s not you who chooses, but me.”
Georg, who spread hatred everywhere he went.
There were plenty of people ready to seek revenge on him. There was no reason for the Undemon to have a grudge against him.
On the contrary, the Undemon was frustrated for not being able to kill Georg.
The fact that they sent someone, despite not having a clear organization or a definite method, just because they said they could “kill him,” spoke volumes.
“If you came, why not speak directly instead of eavesdropping?”
At my words, Eungaye raised an eyebrow.
“Speak directly? Who else is here?”
The place they were in was a small café with only four tables. Besides the waitress at the counter, there were only themselves.
However, I knew.
The ‘blind man’ in front of me was nothing more than a guard accompanying one of the Undemon’s leaders.
And that leader had a very dark soul.
He never conversed with those who didn’t notice his presence.
He must have been testing me. Testing whether I could sense his existence.
Sure enough.
Clap clap clap!
“Oh~ Impressive. You actually recognized my presence.”
“When did you······”
Eungaye showed a shocked expression.
Next to the blind man, a young man with golden hair, now wearing a beret, was sitting.
I, too, was quite surprised inside, but I tried to remain composed.
“Hans, stop eavesdropping.”
“Yes, sir.”
The young man, who had bitten the man’s hand, stared at me intently and curiously asked, “I can’t really tell by looking at you, but how did you recognize me?”
“There’s no reason for me to tell you that.”
If you recognized me, you should know better than to ask.
“Well, it doesn’t matter anyway.”
The young man chuckled and reached out his hand.
“Arene.”
“Haesol.”
I prepared to unleash my hidden powers as I shook his hand.
The young man named Arene simply smiled and shook hands up and down.
“You’re right. Haesol. There must be plenty of cards we can play even if we’re not together. But I don’t like that.”
His expression turned cold.
“I want to kill Georg with my own hands.”
“So, do you have a plan?”
“No. You don’t need to know that.”
As if asking when his expression turned cold, he smiled warmly.
“Just being able to kill him is enough.”
“…”
I never intended to give him the final blow, but I quietly kept my mouth shut.
Arene casually sliced through Eungaye’s chocolate cake with a fork and asked, “I’m sure you have a plan on how to catch him, right?”
“As.”
Instead of answering, I called out Anastasia’s nickname. In response, As nodded from the emblem on my chest.
“Oh, a spirit of light.”
Arene’s eyes sparkled as he looked at As sticking out of my head.
“It’s definitely going to work.”
Georg has a few characteristics.
Unless it’s a special case, he hates moving even to the point of death, especially during the day.
That’s because he is restricted to using only a fraction of his power under the sunlight.
So, even if he moved, he only did so at ‘night.’
But even without sunlight, it was possible to weaken his power to some extent.
By utilizing a spirit of light.
Moreover, if it’s not from the realm of spirits but from the natural world, his power could be further diminished.
Originally, Norton summoning As was a precautionary measure in anticipation of Georg’s main body moving after losing the pearl of the sea god.
Ironically, I was now making use of that, though.
“Is there a way to stop his ‘blood magic’?”
One of Georg’s organs was precisely blood magic.
A curse that weakens the opponent by staining them with blood.
If there was no countermeasure against blood magic, punishing Georg would be difficult.
Of course, I had already thought of something.
“He will stop it.”
I pointed at Eungaye sitting next to me.
“······?”
Eungaye looked confused as our gazes turned towards her.
“Me?”
“Could you explain?”
Arlen looked at me as if he didn’t understand.
“Georg separates his ‘power’ to move under the sun.”
This is called a nucleus. And unless Georg is eliminated, breaking or damaging his nucleus is impossible.
That’s why Georg doesn’t pay much attention to his nucleus.
However, when he uses blood magic, the nucleus, the source of his power, floats in the air.
Since the basic requirement of blood magic is to ‘levitate blood.’
The nucleus also floats in the air according to the blood magic.
This cannot be stopped by physical force or magic.
Only by using [gifts] could it be interfered with.
However, finding a gift to hinder Georg’s nucleus was difficult, and even if there was one, the extent of interference was minimal.
Only by eliminating Georg’s main body could the nucleus also be eliminated.
But if Eungaye’s gift, [gravity], was involved, the story would be different.
The gift of gravity was a formidable gift that could crush anything it touched.
In the game, Eungaye’s significance in Georg’s punishment was due to this gift of gravity.
‘Blocking just the blood magic is as good as sealing half of his power.’
Of course, Eungaye’s gift is not limitless.
Since using the gift consumes mental strength, it is uncertain how long Eungaye can endure.
It was like a battle against time.
“It’s also a problem to clean up his close aides without him noticing.”
Georg is not alone.
There are hundreds of minions under him.
However, Georg, being a coward, did not keep his minions close to him.
Only the four bodyguards, the means to gather them, were around him.
To prevent the minions from gathering, those bodyguards needed to be dealt with.
“Leave that to me.”
Arlen raised the corner of his mouth as if to reassure me. With that, leaving Arlen in charge of the aides, one crucial issue remained.
‘The problem is how to lure him out······’
To get Georg, who controls his minions from the corner, to come out, a suitable bait was needed.
From Noble mtl dot com
‘A bait, huh······’
The first thing that comes to mind is ‘a young and pretty woman.’
He had a ridiculous wall that only stole magic from beautiful humans.
Moreover, his standards were so high that if the quality of magic was low, he wouldn’t even bother stealing it.
The aides who had to find and report on him were pitiful.
‘A truly picky guy.’
Fortunately, around me, there was someone who met all of his picky criteria and still had a surplus of qualities.
Young, beautiful, and even possessing ‘pure magic’ – a versatile classmate.
Ring?
Just then, a call came from that classmate.
“Oh, Amelia.”
?The spirit stone has been auctioned off, please check as 300 million won has been deposited.
Checking the smartphone bank app, the balance appeared.
[430 million won]
?Since it’s the first deal, no commission was deducted.
“As expected, Amelia. Your ability is outstanding.”
?hahahaha, it’s only natural.
As she said it was natural, Amelia’s face, full of laughter, came to mind.
“So, I have another favor to ask. It’s a bit risky, but not difficult.”
I started talking about the ‘bait.’
I was planning to reward generously.
