Chapter 272: Chapter 272: Caught
There were two entrances that led to the Mythical Hero Academy. The two entrances were right next to each other, but it was impossible to confuse the two as one of them was guarded more heavily.
On the right side, there was an entrance which was not crowded at all. If anything, it was completely empty, still there were a lot of guards there, as if there was something special about that entrance.
That was the entrance that was used by the Professors of the Mythical Hero Academy. No one else was allowed to use the entrance as there was a special mechanism at the end of the entrance which led the person to the heart of the Hero Academy.
That was why the entrance was so heavily protected. However, even if a person managed to get past the guards and entered the entrance, the mechanism wasn't going to be activated unless the teacher wasn't recognised.
To activate the mechanism, a total of four things were needed and none of that could be missing. The first thing was the Teacher's Identification Pass. The second thing was getting past the guards. The last two things were iris and fingerprint scan.
No matter how many times Eren thought about it, he was always surprised. To think that a continent had such technology which was similar to modern day earth.
As he had been living in the Eastern Continent which felt more medieval, entering the Southern Continent always felt like entering a new world entirely, especially the Hero Academy which was at the core of this modern change.
Although the Teacher's entrance was more convenient, Eren didn't plan to take it. He was going to take the normal entrance which was less secure.
Eren stood in the line for the ordinary entrance, occasionally glancing towards the Teacher's Entrance where a young man stopped in front of the Guards.
The Guards didn't even ask the man to show his Identification Pass as if they all recognised him all too well. If anything, they were even more respectful to the person, appearing like they were worried about offending him.
Eren was curious about the identity of the person. Intrigued, he was about to use his identification skill when he noticed the man to suddenly look in his direction.
Stunned, Eren stopped as he wondered if the man noticed his attempt to use the skill. Or was it just a coincidence that he looked in their direction at the same time.
The young man looked in Eren's direction. As there were people in front of Eren and behind him, it was impossible to see who he was actually looking at.
"Hey, isn't that the Prophet of the Hero Academy? Is he looking at me? Did he see that I am destined to be a great person?" A young student who stood in front of Eren suddenly exclaimed, his excitement evident in his voice.
Hearing his excited shout, more and more people turned towards the young looking teacher.
With so much attention on him, the young teacher shook his head lightly as he entered through the entrance, soon disappearing inside as the mechanism to teleport him to the heart of the Academy was activated following a few scans.
Eren stood in silence, watching the man disappear into the unknown. His expressions were calm, not revealing anything out of place even when that young teacher was looking in his direction, but deep down, Eren was quite surprised.
As far as he remembered, there was only one person in the Mythical Hero Academy that was called a Prophet.
It was the person who had guided Mist's daughter towards the Eastern Continent, making her take away the important treasures that were destined for the Main Character and his friends.
It was as if someone knew about the existence of the Main Character in the Eastern Continent and didn't want them to become strong.
When he heard about that person from Mist's daughter, he already thought of two possibilities. One was that the person was the main character of this world who actually had a superpower that allowed him to see the future or make prophecies.
That possibility was rejected instantly as he realized that the man didn't know about the future that he had changed, which made him believe the second possibility more.
The Prophet was someone like him, who came from Earth. He was also someone who had read one of the four books of this World, and maybe even more.
That possibility was also low as he had already met the person from earth who had entered the body of a Hero. It was Aster, who became the Vice Dean of the Academy.
The chances of there being two people from earth at the same place felt really low, especially since both of them were changing the future of the continent on their own.
The two of them should have discovered each other and tried to kill each other, but nothing like that happened. Instead, it took him from another continent to come and kill Aster.
'First Fey, and now this... I have already seen three Transmigrators, and two of them are still alive. But what about the Main Character of the Southern Continent?'
Other than Ye Liang in the Eastern Continent, he hadn't seen or heard about any other main character yet. He wasn't sure if they were already killed by the others that came from earth, but the chances were even lower.
The Main Character of the Southern Continent, based on the title of the book that he had seen in hands of the author, was someone who had a SSS Rank ability.
To kill someone who relied on his own abilities was much harder than trying to kill someone who relied on a system like Ye Liang.
It became especially harder as the Main Character of this world was supposed to be someone who had died in the past and was reborn in the future, as the title was called Rebirth of the SSS Rank Hero.
If the person was reborn, it made sense for him to master his abilities much faster. Then where exactly was that person? He wondered.
