After Han Kang-yoon left, Yoo Ha-on’s group began to wait for an opportunity to intervene, as he had instructed.
Then, soon after, a man in a shabby robe really did leave the battlefield and started chasing Han Kang-yoon’s shikigami.
“. . .Is it really okay? That man. He doesn’t seem like an ordinary sorcerer, no matter how I look at him.”
“Oppa said he’s okay, so he probably is.”
“I think so too.”
As Han Seo-ah said, Yoo Ha-on also trusted Han Kang-yoon.
However, on the other hand, she felt complicated emotions.
She felt sorry and regretful.
Because in the end, she couldn’t be of much help to him this time either.
「𝙄’𝙢 𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙩𝙤𝙤 𝙬𝙚𝙖𝙠.」
It was the same in the previous fight with Sori-soe. Yoo Ha-on didn’t even notice the existence of the townspeople who were nothing more than empty shells, and she couldn’t help much in the battle with Sori-soe’s main body either.
If she had been a little better, Han Kang-yoon would have been able to push himself less.
It wasn’t that Han Kang-yoon didn’t trust Yoo Ha-on.
However, when the decisive moment of crisis came, Han Kang-yoon didn’t have the option of being with Yoo Ha-on.
It was a natural realization and a valid judgment.
It was something that made her feel her own inadequacy.
“. . .Ugh. Suddenly acting on your own.”
“Obviously remove the ritual! You can’t stop this takeover by yourself, can you?”
“There are three 1st-grades on this side, it’s only a matter of time before we reach a conclusion. If you want leniency, you’d better surrender now.”
With the departure of the man she was with, Yoo Hye-yeon, who had been stirring up the enemy camp, lost her momentum in an instant.
On the contrary, the exorcists regained their composure and gradually cornered Yoo Hye-yeon.
「𝘽𝙪𝙩 𝙬𝙝𝙮.」
It didn’t feel good. At least, that’s how Yoo Ha-on felt.
And this type of intuition was rarely wrong.
“. . .I didn’t expect anyone’s help from the beginning anyway.”
Suddenly, Yoo Hye-yeon’s momentum changed in a different direction than before. At the same time, the form of the ritual that was overturning the academy began to change rapidly.
Rumble.
“Yoo Hye-jin. You’re going to come with me to father’s side here today. Kneel down there and apologize.”
“. . . . . . .”
The ground shook, and the flow of air fluctuated incessantly.
Before long, a thick deathly aura began to overflow from the center of the ritual where the black fog was lingering.
The power accumulated from numerous battles that had taken place within the academy so far. That was what it was drawing out.
“O voodoo seed, I offer you my body. So give me more power in this hand!”
“You’re going to use your own flesh as a medium! You’ve completely lost your mind!”
In the midst of the rapidly changing situation, Yoo Ha-on felt that now was the time to act.
“. . .Let’s move too.”
“Huh, Ha-on? You want to go into that mess right now?”
“Everyone’s exhausted, and we don’t have time anymore. We have to do it.”
Baek Eun-seo tried to dissuade her, but Yoo Ha-on’s attitude was firm.
Han Kang-yoon must be buying time by taking on an even greater risk right now.
There was no way she could waste it.
「𝙏𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙩𝙞𝙢𝙚, 𝙞𝙩’𝙨 𝙢𝙮 𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙣. . . . . . .」
It was her turn to ease the burden Han Kang-yoon was carrying. Yoo Ha-on, who had made up her mind, silently walked forward.

Thud.
Hektel, who had finally reached me, settled down on one side of the training ground and let out a bloody laugh.
“Nice to see you. I was planning on going to you after I cleaned up the exorcists, but were you tired of waiting?”
“Why did you help her?”
“Well, I got interested.”
I didn’t call him here to listen to some lame excuse anyway.
I summoned Black Yin from the shadows along with Ggong-sam-yi, and spoke to Hektel.
“Are you sure? I’m telling you, you’ll definitely regret it.”
The last time I was at Seo Ji-an’s facility, I had no idea Hektel is going to be there.
Naturally, I hadn’t prepared any countermeasures for him yet, and it’s fair to say that I had very few cards to play.
But it was different now.
I had spent the past month completing all the preparations to the named boss warlock Hektel.
If he thinks it’s the same as before, Hektel will definitely pay the price.
“You’ve become so arrogant that you’ve lost all sense of reason. There’s no one in the world who I should be afraid of.”
“Really? Maybe you just haven’t met them yet.”
Hektel is clearly an overwhelming power, but in terms of the entire exorcism worldview, he is not the strongest or anything.
Of course, he has attack methods and weaknesses, and he’s just a being who dies if he gets a fatal wound like an ordinary human.
“I heard the story of Bi-hyeong from the Cheong family’s lady.”
“. . . . . . .”
“It wasn’t a special relationship, but there’s nothing I couldn’t do to take your soul and soothe it.”
Rumble.
An enormous spiritual power surged from Hektel, and the aura of the curse imprinted on his soul overflowed everywhere.
“Black Yin.”
Flap!
『Screech!』
I looked at Black Yin, who had landed on my shoulder at my call, and faced my opponent without hesitation.
A member of the Yahwak, and the named boss warlock Hektel from the story.
From now on, it was my turn to go back to being a player and attack him.
