I Became the Academy’s Genius Shikigami Summoner

𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝟐𝟖

Han Seo-ah opened her eyes and blankly stared ahead for a few seconds. Then, she collected her wits and hurriedly looked around.

「. . . . . .𝘼𝙝.」

Fortunately, she could spot the two teachers who had received emergency treatment and Han Kang-yoon lying right next to them.

Their complexions were pale, but all three of them were breathing properly. Han Kang-yoon, who had been on the verge of death, also didn’t seem to have any major injuries other than bruises.

「𝙃𝙚’𝙨 𝙖𝙡𝙞𝙫𝙚.」

Han Seo-ah covered her face with both hands and let out a sigh of relief. It was definitely a life-or-death situation, but somehow her brother had managed to escape even when there seemed to be no way out.

And that was all that mattered now.

No matter what happened, as long as Han Kang-yoon was alive, that was enough.

「. . . . . . .」

Whew.

Although his condition didn’t seem critical, his body was cold. Han Seo-ah quickly used the basic healing technique she had learned at the Academy to generate warmth.

Thud.

She tightly held Han Kang-yoon’s hand with both of hers and continued to infuse him with warmth.

「𝙄’𝙡𝙡 𝙣𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙡𝙚𝙩 𝙖𝙣𝙮𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙝𝙖𝙥𝙥𝙚𝙣 𝙖𝙜𝙖𝙞𝙣.」

Han Seo-ah felt helpless. To be honest, it was an irresistible force, but she couldn’t even be of any help. All she could do was regret and blame herself.

Class A? Once you’re out in the world, it’s nothing more than a meaningless title. She had deeply realized that during this incident.

In order to protect something in the face of real threats, she had to become stronger and grow further.

Han Seo-ah made a firm resolution and stared fixedly at Han Kang-yoon, who had lost consciousness.

Ding.

【An unknown trait has been recognized.】

▶【Companion(S)】

Without realizing the change that had happened to him.

Time continued to flow like that.

🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷

Crash.

Rumble.

Changsha City, Hunan Province, China.

One of the administrative branches of the Sagunpa, a large faction that wields great influence in modern-day China.

This place, where a huge building once stood, had been reduced to nothing more than ruins, and as if to prove it, corpses were strewn all over the place.

In the midst of that chaotic scene. Three men and women were standing.

Bi-hyeong.

“. . . Bi-hyeong’s reaction has disappeared.”

The one who quietly uttered those words was a woman wearing a cheongsam made of luxurious fabric.

Upon hearing that, the large man spoke.

“No way. You must be mistaken?”

“Have you ever seen me make such a mistake?”

At those words, the two men who were standing there hardened their expressions with a serious look.

Their colleague’s reaction had disappeared. The implication was simple.

“You mean he’s dead? That Bi-hyeong.”

“. . . I guess so.”

He shrugged and responded calmly, but the woman also had a look of incomprehension.

Another man who had been listening quietly spoke up.

“Where is it?”

“Korea. Not North, but South.”

“. . . Is that where the Three Great Houses are?”

The woman, who had been pondering deeply, clapped her hands as if she had remembered something.

Clap.

“Come to think of it, I heard that they were doing something interesting like a revival ritual or something. So, I also provided a movement spell for him.”

“I think I’ve heard about that too.”

The woman, who had been silent for a while, continued speaking.

“I heard that they used some kind of sacrifices. What was it. . . . . . Cheongho Academy?”

In any case, this was no ordinary matter.

It wasn’t the first time a member of Yahwak had died, but it was definitely not a common occurrence.

“Korea. . . . . . . . Now that I think about it, I had a rather appealing offer.”

“You’re going?”

In response to that question, the long-haired man with his eyes closed answered.

“If there’s a festival, it’s only right to participate.”

Bi-hyeong is dead. Something unpredictable must be happening.

Hektel, a member of Yahwak and a forbidden arts master who once terrorized an entire state in America.

His destination was Korea.

🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷

The Yeongwol Island incident came to an end.

Four of the students on the island were injured, and three teachers, including Baek Ji-eun and Choi Do-won, had to be hospitalized.

Fortunately, there were no casualties, but it could have been a much bigger disaster.

Therefore, after things had settled down to some extent, I had to work hard to provide testimony about the incident along with Yoo Ha-on and the others.

“Something did awaken, but it didn’t seem to be in its right mind.”

Whether they knew anything about what happened there, the being that had injured Choi Do-won and Baek Ji-eun, and so on.

Yoo Ha-on and the others had finished their statements before me. Among them was a testimony that they had received help from an unknown person while confronting Bi-hyeong.

So I also decided to subtly follow their lead.

“Yes. He was a man with his face covered. Or maybe he wasn’t a man at all. Thanks to him, the teachers and I were able to survive.”

If it had been a testimony from just one person, it would have been half-believed, but if the testimonies of two people who were in different places matched, it would become somewhat reliable information.

In the end, it was concluded that Yoo Ha-on and I were able to escape the crisis with the help of that mysterious man.

「𝙏𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙨𝙝𝙤𝙪𝙡𝙙 𝙩𝙖𝙠𝙚 𝙘𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙤𝙛 𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙗𝙡𝙚𝙢.」

The reason why I survived even after using the life-substitution forbidden art was also resolved for the time being by bringing up the mysterious man.

In any case, everyone was confused at the time, so no one could know the truth.

Therefore, both internally and externally, people were busy making a fuss about what was only visible on the surface.

【1st-grade exorcist Ji Yoon-ha returns to Korea. When will he join the pursuit team?】
