“I’m going to ask you, did it feel like the surroundings were getting darker? Or did it feel like there was no light at all?”

“yes? Uh, uh, first of all, I’m proud of my night vision. It was completely dark. I didn’t see anything!”

“You didn’t see anything, did you?”

“yes! nothing really! Did you think I was going blind?”

Latte trembles as if the memory of that time is still vivid.

“That’s right, you’re blind.”

“I see! Snow… … yes? Are you blind?”

“Yeah, since you’re working at a cafe, aren’t you supposed to have magic on your body? It was just exposed to black magic.”

And, as far as I know, there was only one guy who would come into the academy casually and do something like this at this time.

“A dark drug. It looks like he moved.”

“Ah, if it’s a secret drug, it’s him! A villain who said no one could know his identity, no one had ever seen his face and survived… … !”

Latte jumps up and down after learning that the identity of the person who blinded her was a secret drug.

The reaction was so strong that I couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

“I know that. I guess he was famous in Niflheim too?”

“Yu, not at the level of being famous! That man is running towards a legend! When I was in Niflheim, how many rumors about him!”

‘A dark drug. No one has ever seen his face. for all who have seen his face are dead.’

‘There are no secret drugs in the world. because he has never been ‘observed’.’

‘There are only two things left on the path of secret medicine. blood and darkness. Nothing else exists.’

“how is it! You know what a terrifying villain he is!”

Latte speaks as if telling a horror story to a child.

Scary behind! Scary! It’s perfect even to say.

“That’s right, he’s a villain people should be afraid of.”

“Right? right?”

“Then why do you think people are afraid of a guy no one has ever seen?

Latte opens her eyes wide as if she had never thought of such a thing.

“yes? Did you just say that? I’ve never seen anyone… … what? Why are you scared when no one has ever seen… … Eh? what?”

“Yeah, that’s it. The unknown always brings fear. But, on the other hand… … .”

──If you know its true identity, then there is nothing to be afraid of.

A secluded cabin located in Gangwon-do.

A man dressed in jet black all over his body was grooming weapons to be used for the mission as usual.

Profits—— Profits—— Profits—— Profits——

While carefully sharpening the blade of his black dagger, he suddenly raises his head and looks at the stack of papers on the desk.

An anonymous request that arrived on your mobile phone for a request last night.

There, along with 50 million credits, the contents of the request were written.

[A cafe located inside the Seoul Hero Academy. Bring all of the safes of ‘Cielo Nuturno’.]

Even though it was to rush into the dangerous area of Seoul Hero Academy alone, it was not a contract request, but a request to retrieve an object.

Thinking that he didn’t have to fight in it and that 50 million credits would be enough to open a regular cafe instead of an academy facility, he succeeded in opening the safe as requested.

And those documents are what came out of that safe.

Took-

Putting down the dagger he was holding, he slowly walked over to the table and picked up the papers.

“… … .”

What exactly is this, why did such a request come in?

He had been doing this job for years and hadn’t touched the requested item, but somehow this request made him experience something strange.

The secret drug that apparently blinded the staff in the cafe and blinded all the rodents around it.

but.

‘Snow… … ! Eyes benefit! thief! It’s a thief!’

In a situation where an ordinary person would fall into a panic and fall down, Cafe Alba tried to kill herself with the bread knife she was holding.

It wasn’t an attack that was wielded at random, but to a location where a vital point was likely to be.

‘That was absolutely not a coincidence.’

In a situation where nothing can be seen, how can a person who can accurately wield a place where a person’s vitals are located be called an ordinary cafe part-timer?

Of course, he came out of his mission in a hurry because it seemed that if there was bloodshed inside the academy, the situation would escalate, but what happened at the time was a strong shock to him as well.

It’s been a while since I’ve been threatened with my life.

“Whoa… … .”

He put the papers he was holding down on the table and sat down again.

The reason he was able to survive on this floor for a long time was thanks to two rules.

The first is not to show yourself to anyone.

The second is not being curious about the client’s request.

This is because the price of unnecessary curiosity could be life.

You just have to stick to that principle.

When he returns to his seat and tries to take care of his weapon again.

-Dengleur. Took.

“… … hmm?”

He turns his head at the sound of something falling.

Since it is a cabin in the mountains, it is a common situation for nearby stones to fall due to animals or wind.

But now, the thing rolling into his cabin was not a stone, but a translucent blue marble.

And that.

“This crazy———.”

-Quaaagh!!

With a tremendous roar, flashes of light rain down, and a huge explosion and flames engulf the place where he was.

The roof collapses, the walls collapse, and the shape of what had just been a cabin changes to a level of derelict.

“Keugh… … ! Whoops!”

A secret drug that is eagerly crawling out of such rubble.

His clothes are full of wounds caused by the explosion just now, as if he couldn’t completely block the shock.

“What the hell is this… … .”

Then, a sound that he shouldn’t have heard from somewhere began to enter his ears.

Pair- Pair- Pair- Pair- Pair-

“Hey. can you stand this? After all, is a cancer drug a cancer drug? That’s great.”

Seeing the man walk out clapping his hands as if he was genuinely great, he made an expression of disbelief.

“Hey, how the hell is this place… … It must have been a place no one knew.”

“huh? here? Alas, I found it while bathing in the forest. Would you believe me if I said that?”

Seeing the man smiling while saying absurd things from the start, I slowly looked at the man in front of me while grinding my teeth.

A cold face with a neatly organized gail perm. And red eyes and black suits.

His mind starts spinning fast.

And of all the people he knew, there was only one like him.

“Hey! Kut! Carlione’s successor… … Eugene Han Callione.”

“You got this right. Did you do some research on me as well?”

It was a smile on his face, but the dark medicine felt like his blood was getting cold. It was because those eyes were as cold as looking at insects crawling on the ground.

“Well, it doesn’t matter. You have to get out of here.”

the man who said so. Eugene reached into his pocket and took out the translucent sphere once again, shaking the stone as if to ask him to take a closer look.

“This is like a portable bomb. To be honest, I didn’t expect it to perform this well. I’m sorry if it hurts a lot.”

What was in Eugene’s hand was a portable strategic weapon that Ahn Byeong-hun had made as a prototype not too long ago.

‘Boss. You have to be really careful when throwing this. If you’re an ordinary Awakener, this will end in one shot.’

He hasn’t awakened yet, but his power is enough to convince even a half-mad scientist.

In a way, it was only natural for a building of this size to be destroyed in half.

“Hmm, but it still seems dangerous, so shall we try one more shot?”

While saying that, Eugene lightly rolls a gururu bomb with a nonchalant gesture.

And it’s coming soon.

──────!!

meant the second explosion.

A strong wind blows by Yu-jin, who holds onto the door tightly to avoid being carried away by the aftermath.

“How about this time?”

Yujin sticks her head out and examines the situation inside once again.

A space that has become hot due to the explosion a while ago.

“Kaaagh——!! You damn bastard!”

and the roaring voice. Around him, a pitch-black defensive magic that had already been tattered was spreading.

Didn’t he die from this too? Eugene finally sighed and went inside.

“Once I used everything I brought, there’s nothing I can do about it. From now on, I have to deal with it with my body.”

Eugene breaks her hands and steps inside.

at the same time.

“Caught!”

At the same time, the guy stretches out his hand towards Yujin and shouts.

“abyss blind.”

A representative technique of dark medicine that steals the target’s vision.

Even though it was one of the basic black magic, if the person who uses it is different, the effect is also different in thousands of ways.

And the magic… … .

“Are you done?”

“Eh, what is this… … .”

It was only revealed that Eugene had not been eaten at all by looking straight at the dark medicine.

“You must be thinking that by now, right? How did you come to this place full of traps and how your magic doesn’t work?”

And Eugene’s answer was very concise.

“I ate some good stuff before I came here.”

“A ruined baby… … !”

A secret drug that twists his expression as if he thought he was joking. At this, Eugene looks at him as if he is curious.

“You look like that? Well, since you look like that, you must have hated showing your face to others.”

It was because his face was starting to show through the mask torn by the explosion.

Distorted eyes and saggy skin. And even a face stained with gray. These were often cited as side effects of black magic.

“Shut up!!”

Perhaps because of the humiliation of showing his face, the guy with a more crumpled expression rushed at Eugene holding a dagger that had fallen on the floor.

“abyss blind!!”

The guy who once again activates his magic towards Eugene. But this time, he shrugged his shoulders as if there was no response.

“Your magic. It doesn’t work at all.”

“Keuuugh!”

Perhaps because of the shock of the explosion a moment ago, the guy tries to strike a knife at Yujin despite his awkward movements.

but.

“I’m afraid of knives, so let’s put them down.”

Eugene fired his dagger with the pistol in his hand and sent it far away.

“why! Why, why! Why why!”

Darkness had a kind of pride.

He was both a war mage and a warlock. Going back and forth on the battlefield, he bound or paralyzed enemies with black magic, and defeated them with hand-to-hand combat and weapons.

He was no different from a specialist in black magic who had crossed countless dead lines and crossed the river of corpses.

No matter how strong a person is, he eventually lost his life in front of his black magic and weapon skills.

“Why the hell doesn’t black magic work! What, are you wearing a holy relic!”

That’s why I didn’t understand it any more.

Why does his magic not work? And the answer to that is–

“uh? how did you know?”

“… … what?”

“There is, a holy relic.”

Eugene responded by pulling out a pair of chopsticks from his pocket.
