Academy Life of a Career Hypnotist

chapter 42



Episode 42. Ordeal reappears (2)

The phone call came at the perfect timing.

I quietly brought the phone to my ear.

“Was the present I prepared for you not good enough?”

Sure enough, it was different.

“You did it.”

“You are a very nice gentleman. If it had been other men, I would have thought it was right and held you in my arms.”

“What are you going to do with the rear end?”

“It is still not too late. The medicine is still circulating in the living room, so take Seol Chae-hwa there and wake her up. I will take care of the aftermath.”

what is this again?

Embarrassed, I decided to ask.

“Mr. Ghost is responsible for taking care of the aftermath?”

“yes. I don’t know much about seolchaehwa. He probably wouldn’t blame you if he got drunk and ran over them. rather… . He will try to take responsibility.”

“… … .”

“Does this sound absurd? Even though she looks cold-hearted in everything, that lady is quite a romantic. The thought that he would have to live the rest of his life with the person who gave him his virginity once… … .”

“So what are your gains?”

I interrupted the Ghost and asked a question.

“aha. okay. Are you suspecting that this is a trap?”

“I asked what you would gain by doing this.”

“It is simple. You are cooperating with me in exchange for having a woman named Seol Chae-hwa. With her talent, she can become the owner of Chilsung. As her husband, you will be able to obtain the power of Chilsung.”

Laughter came out.

‘That’s right. I wondered why they dragged it on while missing the right time to betray. I was thinking of taking a detour in this way and drawing the big picture.’

I expected. In the end, the existence of myself caused a variable in the main episode.

Following the last time in Neverland, you’re trying to enlist as an ally again this time. I knew that he would definitely try to kill me next time because of his criminal record for giving a big blow to Glenn, who was an executive.

‘You still haven’t given up on me, does that mean you’ve seen something more in me?’

Their eyes are everywhere. You may have continued to watch my performance so far.

There are so many ways to guess what kind of potential I had and exactly what kind of potential I saw, so I decided to play second.

In this situation, there was another problem to be addressed first.

“You look down on Seolchaehwa too much. Even if I give in one hundred steps and become your husband, do you think he will be influenced by my words?”

“well. How well do you know about seolchaehwa? Do you know that girl as well as I, who has been helping her since she was 10 years old?”

There was a reason why I kept asking questions like this. It was to pry information from the other person while pretending to be worried about whether or not I would succumb to this temptation.

“of course. I know the heart that worries ahead. You must be embarrassed to try to get your hands on a young lady from a conglomerate family. I will definitely support that part.”

“How do you support them?”

“In the process of Seolchaehwa establishing her position in Chilseong, my help is secretly added. Later, when she grows up, the process I helped can be caught. 」

“aha. Do you want to control the seolchaehwa with it?”

“I only create flow. You will be in control, not me. Because that would be more certain. After all, don’t you have the best talent in that field?”

Was it like that

It is not a plan to trample the cotyledons before they grow big, but to grow them as a crop that will produce the fruit they want.

Certainly, the latter must have been more attractive to them than removing cotyledons. In that sense, I must have seemed the best and optimal medium they needed.

[Remaining Spirit: 55%]

while passing the time with a story. The remaining mental strength was also secured by about 3%. Although small, this small difference could have big consequences.

“Well, that’s all I can say. So, leave the rest of the work to me and go to the table I prepared and sit down again.”

Looking at Ghost’s reaction, it seemed like it would be difficult to take more time.

<Save call log.>

After I manipulated my smartphone to save the call I just made. I threw away the pretense that I was forcibly using to dig up information.

“I’m sorry, but I didn’t live an insignificant life to the point of succumbing to such lowly temptations. You trashy pervert.”

“… You will regret it.”

“Shut up that filthy mouth. Do you know how old I am with him in the first place? I was a kid in elementary school when I was enlisted in the army. If you were going to seduce me, you should have prepared a sister my age or older.”

I am the three main heroines of Psychic Age. It was the secret to basically maintaining composure while dealing with Pyo Yu-rim and Kang A-ram. Sometimes I shake, but when I think of our age difference, I wake up.

“If you want a different female color, I can prepare it according to your taste, but that is not the intention of the answer.”

“you. Can you handle betraying Seol Chae-hwa?”

“If I couldn’t handle it, I wouldn’t have talked about it like this in the first place. It is very regrettable that the negotiations broke down.”

“What do you mean?”

“A great person decided to take care of the aftermath by himself. I am… I have to do my part to prepare for the unexpected. hehehe.」

pop.

A call cut off with an eerie laugh. Looking at the smartphone screen, I immediately saw that the data was not captured along with the departure of the call range.

‘It must have been their fault.’

I remember the last thing he said.

The expression “clean up” probably means that I, who have found out the secret, will remove Seolchaehwa.

‘For a great man to step out… … .’

The worst possibilities flashed into my mind.

Just thinking about the other person makes my heart beat wildly. The emotion of fear of death that I suppressed with the Emotion Implant stimulates my rationality.

“Whoa.”

[Activates ‘Emotion Implant’.]

[Remaining Spirit: 52%]

He showed his genius to the sleeping Seolchaehwa. It was a measure taken to help her come to her senses quickly.

I came out into the living room again.

I confirmed several times that no one was in the house except for Seol Chae-hwa. If so, the Ghost guy must have observed me through a CCTV installed somewhere in this house.

‘Then staying in this house is not a very good option. My movements will continue to be read.’

To go outside, I tried to open the first exit I saw, the window from the living room to the front yard.

rattle! rattle!

‘Is it locked?’

Most of the other windows, as well as the front door we first entered, were locked.

I was troubled.

‘Should I just break the window?’

As a test, he hit one of the windows hard with his fist.

Tung!

Even though I applied strength with the thought of breaking it, the glass window did not budge. Judging by the dull sound, it was by no means an ordinary windowpane.

‘It’s a house built by a chaebol lady to stay alone, so she must have made it strong.’

Then, of course, it would have been built for adults. As a test, he took out the Astrolabus and fired a bullet in a way that consumed only a very small amount of mana.

Paperweight!

A small spark flew from the window, and the magic bullet disappeared without a trace.

‘also. It’s an artifact that’s been treated with magic.’

First, I decided to go around the house and check the other windows and unlocked doors. At least one window could be open.

Drooling!

Surprisingly, there really was one.

“hmm.”

It was a small ventilation window on the kitchen side.

I made an estimate by alternating between my head and shoulders, torso width and window space.

‘At this rate, my shoulders would get caught on both sides and I wouldn’t be able to pass.’

Then how about this

[‘Delusion Practice’ is activated.]

Wood deok!

Using the power of nature, I deliberately dislocated my shoulder and folded it inward as much as possible. After that, I struggled and pushed my body in, and I was able to get out with really little effort.

“this. It’s different from what I’ve heard. I heard they locked it inside so they couldn’t escape. You come to meet me personally.”

While I was restoring the dislocated part by activating the Delusion Practice again, a voice that gave me goosebumps just by hearing it came from beyond the darkness.

“Glaine… … .”

“Hello. irregular. It’s been a long time since then.”

yet.

From the darkness, Glene appeared with a fishy smile.

“I heard that a great man is coming. Somehow it seemed to be you.”

“Originally, I tend not to engage in such cumbersome things. But didn’t you and I owe each other? yes?”

The boy stretched out his palm towards me. Traces of the last time I tried to stab him and failed. I could see the scar that had blocked my blade.

“Didn’t you get the right treatment? Are Septagram medical facilities that poor?”

“Seeing that the muzzle is alive, it seems that I was looked down on quite a bit. These scars… . I left it on purpose so that I wouldn’t forget the debt I owed to you. To maintain this boiling intent to kill.”

He grabbed the Astrolabus from his right hand with his left hand, then pulled out the dagger stored in the holster on the side of his thigh with his right hand.

‘I can’t blindly shoot Astrolabos against him.’

His nature is a Silencer. Anything that makes a sound can be controlled. It would be foolish to shoot magic bullets at him like that. It won’t mean much unless you’re shooting at really close range.

ugh

[Activates ‘Emotion Implant’.]

It raises mana by infusing calm emotions into the heart. Just doing this action basically increases resistance and resistance to nature. It was the combat posture Kang Ah-ram showed me the other day.

“Hoo. Have you taken off your kid’s shirt while you haven’t seen each other for a while? yes, it should come out like that It’s not fun to watch if you’re helpless.”

It was relatively recently that I perfected this skill. Practice itself has been going on for a long time, but I didn’t use it because I didn’t have enough skills to use it in real combat.

It was because if I lacked tips, my mental strength would have been wasted. It wasn’t even a skill that could be learned by sight, so I couldn’t get help from the Delusion Practice.

“Did you come to kill me and Seolchaehwa?”

“I want to kill myself too, but it’s itchy. One last recommendation. Doyoon Kim, come to Septagram. A special place is reserved for you.”

“A special seat?”

“I will promise you a position as an executive at Septagram.”

It’s coming out really hard.

Maybe it’s the truth, since Glene never bluffs.

‘Even so.’

As long as I know for sure that the ultimate goal they want is the end of the world, I will never compromise with them even after I die.

“good. It’s a different story when it comes to executive positions.”

“… … .”

“why? Didn’t you expect me to say yes here?”

Glenn was not taken aback.

Rather, he replied with a smirk.

“Funny. If that’s the case, I’ll set a condition for the induction ceremony as an executive here as well. Kill or rape Seolchaehwa in that house. Since you said you have no interest in the position of Chilsung, there will be no regrets.”

“Tsk. It doesn’t work.”

“It is ridiculous. Do you think you’ll get beaten twice by the same number? but… . It was an interesting number. So, I will show you a number that rises on this side as well.”

“what?”

“Come out. kid.”

Bubbly.

Out of the darkness where Glaine appeared, a new one appeared.

“brother. Is it my turn now?”

“okay. It’s your favorite time to play with fire. That guy will do it for you.”

“lol. exciting! Uncle, come play with me!”

I saw the child standing next to Glenn and my fist clenched.

‘That child… … .’

I remember. One of the many children used in the satellite project experiments. No. 45. In the original work, it was a child who was rescued by Meteor during an experiment. Obviously, at that time, the natural blooming was not possible.

Roaring!

It was different this time.

“mister! look at this! Is the fire huge?”

Unlike the original, the rescue time was delayed, so No.45 had become an adult whose nature had blossomed.

‘If this is the case, will the thing I feared really happen?’

The ultimate goal of the satellite project. Fostering adults to create an afterlife. No matter how much I thought about it, it only gave me an ominous feeling.

“Little boy. Fire is dangerous.”

“huh? why is it dangerous fire is good It warms me up.”

up

My teeth gnashed when I remembered what they must have done to bring that nature to bloom.

“You may not be in danger, but other people are. If I burn myself in that fire, I will have to cry.”

“Oh, should I? really?”

“okay. So put out the fire.”

“I did not know… . sorry… … .”

No. 45 extinguished the flames with a sullen expression.

But I still couldn’t let go of the tension. Because Glene still had a relaxed expression.

“Remember? Back then, when we first met, there was a kid of this age. You missed a golden opportunity to kill me to save him.”

“What kind of bullsh*t are you trying to do?”

“I made a request to the worker ants. If there’s a little kid left in stock, ask them to send one. Because I wanted to put on a special stage for you.”

f*ck!

Glene snapped her fingers lightly.

That moment.

―――――――――――――!!!

No. 45 started screaming in pain as he clutched at his hair. A familiar shade of purple could be seen in the complexion of the child’s face.

‘Supernova Virus… … .’

in the midst of that

Whoops.

A halo appeared above No.45’s head.

said Glene giggling.

“Let’s play that proud hero again. Because at that time I couldn’t see properly.”
