I Became a Mafia in the Academy

Chapter 188

The heroes and Kurus return to their original positions as if time was rewinded.

The battle proceeds according to the settings as the bodies of the other heroes are pushed back, and only four remain in front of Kurus.

[Kwak Chun-sik, Young Hoham, Park Yoon-ho, and Lottie.]

“Forward dealer, forward tank, backward supporter, backward dealer. It’s a classic, basic combination, and remember, what you’re about to see is a battle of heroes recreating the skills of their time.”

With a snap of his fingers, Park Yun-ho signaled the start of the battle, and the four heroes began to move.

Kwak Chun-sik was the first to move.

The pure white sword he holds turns blue, sending a low vibration through the air.

-Gulp.

At the same time, a gagging sound comes from the side.

Although none of the students gathered here made a sound, it was clear that they were all thinking the same thing.

Even if this place is just an illusion, their skills are ‘real’.

-Start.

With a low chant from Kwak Chun-sik, the battle begins.

He rushes toward Kurus with such speed that it’s hard to keep track of him, and his sword slashes straight down.

Kurus’ mouth drops open at the sight. The black mass protruding from his abandoned mouth instantly takes on the form of a man and strikes at Kwak Chun-sik with both hands.

-Kigigigigigig!

Letting out a grotesque laugh as he flies off into the distance, the black mass disappears, and at the same time, two jet-black swords appear in his hands.

It then lunges at Kwak Chun-sik, who has fallen to the ground.

Kwak Chun-sik scrambles to his feet and tries to regain his footing, but the impact of the blow is too much for him and he falls to the ground.

It’s a close call but his movements lie still.

There was a figure in the distance pointing a finger at Kurus.

Park Yoon-ho used his magic to stop Kurus’ movement.

At the same time, Young Hoham, who was guarding the back row, lunges at Kurus with his blonde hair whipping around.

With both hands raised, he slams him down with all his might as Kurus’ body crumples like a piece of paper and he falls to the ground.

But the creature turned to liquid as if nothing had happened and it tried to step back to lessen the impact.

As if to stop him in his tracks, blue swords appear in all directions, blocking his movements.

Kwak Chun-sik, who had recovered his damage, summoned his aura to block the creature’s movements.

-Kigigig! Kigigigig! Kigigigig!

Kurus, whose movements were now blocked, began to struggle furiously but was unable to move in the face of a mage.

It was a hopeless situation as Lottie, who has been casting a spell, extends her staff in front of her and chants.

-Delete.

A red pillar that hadn’t existed a moment ago begins to fall toward the trapped Kurus from the edge of the sky, like the setting sun.

“Wow…….”

The children, who had been watching with bated breath, let out an exclamation of admiration and began to stare at the spectacle.

The magic of a top-level wizard was not something that could be easily seen, whether on video or in real life.

───────!!!

A space-tearing roar engulfs the room.

Lottie’s magic?

Nope.

With pained expressions on their faces, the children look towards the source of the sound.

The sight of the red pillar fading into darkness was like…….

“Eclipse. It’s Kurus’ ability to turn light into darkness, and it’s the reason why demons, who abhor light, flock to him.”

The children nodded and turned their attention back to the scene before them.

The pillar, which had slowly begun to be engulfed in darkness, like a pure white tissue paper dipped in ink, finally turned black at the end, and soon it was engulfing the sky.

“Wow, that’s crazy. Boss, if you and I fight that thing, who wins?”

“That’s scary…….”

The children of Familia are also speechless at the sight, which is unlike anything they’ve ever seen before.

Soon, the dark pillar dissipated, and what walked out of it was no longer human but a grotesque creature that looks like a lump of black tar.

-lethum.lethumlethumlethumlethumlethumlethum.

The creature that moved its mouth furiously, spewing out unintelligible words.

-mors descendet in te.(Death will descend upon you.)

It was only a single word but Lottie screams and falls back, as Park Yoon-ho glares at him with a pained expression.

“It’s a curse that most demons can use. You should remember this in case you ever have to fight a demon in the future. The easiest way to get rid of their curse is to-“

───thwack.

“You bury them with something louder than that.”

A massive boom that echoes and the source of the sound was Young Hoham, hands clasped together.

With a single clap of his hands, he had blasted away the curses of 33 demons.

Tilting his head at the sight, Kurus raised one of his six new hands and pointed it at Lottie, who had yet to recover.

Slowly, as if absorbing the darkness around him, energy begins to gather at the tips of his fingers.

At this rate, she’ll be pierced.

But

-Dokyachengcheng.

A blue flash accompanied the familiar voice, slicing through every part of him, including his arm.

The hero, Kwak Chun-sik, had moved.

Smirking at the sight, Young Hoham lunged at Kurus, who was still breathing and slowly recovering but he generated a shield of darkness to block him.

Kwaang──!

The shield shatters with a single punch, exposing his body.

-Kikikikikikikikikik!

The creature raises a hand and points it at Young Hoham as a beam of black light flying in a straight line like a laser to pierce through his opponent.

Then.

-Wave.

──The world tilted.

The black light that scratched Young Hoham’s cheek soared into the air.

-Gué (櫃).

Park Yoon-ho, who had been looking for an opening behind him, cupped his hands together and unleashed his magic, as a translucent pillar of violet light surrounded Kurus.

Kwak Chun-sik pointed the tip of his sword at Kurus, who could only flinch, unable to move, and declared.

-Moon White Wind Qing.

The moon is clear and the wind is cool.

He swung his sword in a very light motion, as if to shoo away a butterfly in front of him.

Will such a weak attack work against him? I thought to myself.

A light breeze ruffled my hair.

“Huh?”

“What?”

I looked around, wondering if I wasn’t the only one who felt the wind, and all the children felt it.

This is a fantasy world but a faint breeze had swept through all of us, even though it was impossible for something in an illusion to affect us.

And then it swept through everything.

It carries the darkness, fear, and corruption that surrounds it and blows it away.

The darkened sky was replaced by a starry night sky, and the blackened sun was transformed into a blue moon.

-Moonlight Wind Chime.

The moon was clear and the wind was cool.

-Kie-e-e-e-e-e-e-e!

Park Yoon-ho’s magic faded, and the screams of the creature inside began to echo around him.

-It’s loud.

Even though it’s clearly an illusory simulation.

-Be quiet.

For some reason, I thought I heard Kwak Chun-sik’s voice.

-Good night, isn’t it?

I felt as if I had made eye contact with him.

Kurus falls to the ground in a fountain of black blood and with that, all time stops, and everything around turns black.

“Now, this is why we learn villainology.”

Park Yun-ho’s voice brought us back to the classroom where we were sitting.

“To know the abilities and techniques of villains, to know how to deal with them properly, and to consider the optimal situation. As you can see, the damage from the battle just now was four minor injuries. That’s a far cry from the previous attempt.”

He puts his hands on the table and looks at us.

“You have been given this textbook in the hope that you will not make the mistakes of your predecessors.”

His words seem to radiate an unearthly heat from everyone.

To find the best way in a situation where you don’t know when it will happen. To never make mistakes again.

After saying that, Park Yun-ho looked at us with a satisfied face and opened his mouth.

“Alright, then, Jin-woo Bevalt and his team members, come to the staff room today at lunchtime to receive your rewards.”

* * *

The events of today’s Villainology class kept replaying in my head until the moment I returned home to relax after finishing all my classes at the academy.

The middle-aged Kwak Chun-sik was strong; at that age, he already had the power to change the world, and he had succeeded in dealing a fatal blow to Kurus, who had contracted 33 demons.

Of course, we all know that Kurus will return one day, but since there have been no sightings of Kurus since that day, there is no doubt that Kwak Chun-sik attack had dealt him a devastating blow.

“……That won’t work.”

I immediately dialed Kwak Chun-sik’s number using Smart Lens.

A brief beep.

-What’s going on at this hour?

Kwak Chun-sik asked in a voice that said he didn’t expect me to call him first.

“Hey, old man, it’s been a while since we had a mentor class.”

-It’s because you’ve been running around saying you’re busy all the time.

……Surely it’s not my karma.

“How about tomorrow, it’s the weekend and I’m free.”

-Tomorrow?

Kwak Chun-sik’s words are interrupted by a pause, and then a voice.

-No.

“Why? Aren’t you going to the academy tomorrow anyway?”

-No, not tomorrow! I’m going to play with my granddaughter!

“……?”

-My granddaughter is going to hang out with me for the first time in a long time, how can I miss it! I can’t. You bastard! I’m busy tomorrow!

I was taken aback by his adamant attitude.

Playing with his granddaughter is so important?

Well, at that age, it might be important, but at any rate…….

~Big brother!~

At that moment, I heard Jiyun’s voice outside my room.

Wait……Jiyun?

Something flashed in my head.

Yes, this is it!

I immediately opened the door, gestured for her to be quiet, and continued the call.

“Old man, didn’t you say your granddaughter is seven years old?”

-Huh?

“I have an idea.”

-What idea?

“My little sister is also 7 years old. Wouldn’t it be great if we let them play together, so they can become friends?”

-What? You mean Jiyun?

“I don’t know about you, but my Jiyun is very polite and nice. Why don’t we let her become friends with your granddaughter?”

After a moment of silence.

-Good.

“Right?”

-I’ll text you the time and place, and you can meet me there.

“Okay. See you tomorrow.”

-Yes.

Okay.

With that, I hung up the phone and turned at Jiyun, who was sitting on the bed, looking at me distantly.

“Hey, big brother. Are you done with the call?”

“Yeah.”

I walk over to her and lift her up.

“Jiyun, do you want to go play with your brother tomorrow?”

“Tomorrow? Really?!”

“Yeah. And let’s meet a new friend.”

“Friends! Wow!”

Jiyun couldn’t contain her joy at the mention of meeting a friend and hugged me tightly.

“I love it!”

Sigh.

Just as planned.
