I Became the Academy’s Kibitz Villain

Chapter 131: Do Ji-hwan's Ambitious Project (8)

Screams erupted again, alarms and cries filling the air.

It was no longer surprising to hear of villains or demons causing havoc worldwide, especially when the location was Ulleungdo’s port.

“Die, you wretch!!”

Demons usually arise from intensely negative emotions.

“Help, please! Someone save me!”

Especially when an ability user became a demon, it signified a significant event triggering these dark feelings.

“I did nothing wrong! Please, somebody, do something about her!!”

“Die───!!”

The demon roared.

Her white wedding dress was stained with red blood, and her skin, once as pale as the dress, had turned into the distinctive purple of a demon.

Clearly, she was a bride who had come to Ulleungdo.

Given that she was in her wedding dress, she likely had just gotten married and arrived here by boat in the evening.

“You bastard! How could you do this to me!! Ahhh!!”

The female demon, clutching the ring on her left hand, was in agony.

Her pain seemed more profound than the man bleeding from his shoulder after being attacked by the demon.

“Someone, call an ambulance! Save me! It hurts…!!”

The pain must be unbearable.

The flesh was torn to the bone by a magical blade not meant for a mere human.

“My love! It was a mistake! Only once, please…!”

“Aaaaah!!!”

While there were ability users and those capable of subduing demons, as well as people who rushed to the scene after hearing about the chaos, the public reaction was mixed.

“That’s the man’s fault.”

“How can a non-ability user cheat on his ability user wife? If it were the other way around, maybe.”

“No matter if they had an ability or not, cheating in a marriage makes him trash. What’s the point of saving him? The victim is that woman.”

Being an ability user was like winning the lottery, and marrying one was the envy of many.

Yet, this man cheated on his ability user wife with her sister.

Not many wanted to risk their lives to save a man who caused such trouble.

“What men should really be wary of. He’s playing around with his sister-in-law despite being married to a superpower user. How angry she must be to turn into a demon.”

“Shouldn’t we stop this? If we let it continue, that man will die.”

“Let him. I don’t want to risk my life for such a guy.”

The power of ability users stemmed from will.

It was hard for those who came to Ulleungdo for love to intervene on behalf of the cheating party.

But even if people hesitated, and even if the man was at fault, the situation ‘a demon is trying to kill someone’ remained unchanged.

“Die! You’ll die, and I’ll die too!!”

“Ah, help, somebody please─!”

Flash!

Just as the demon was about to unleash a magical bullet towards the man.

A golden circle appeared, and a woman stepped out with the sound of heels clicking.

“That’s…!”

“No way!!”

Everyone’s eyes widened in shock.

Not only was the appearance of the golden circle surprising, but the fact that a person emerged from it was even more astonishing, particularly when that person was someone making headlines globally.

“Golden Priestess!!”

[Solar Platina has arrived.]

The Golden Priestess, dressed in a black hood and black mask, Solar Platina, held the red aura handle like a whip and lifted her head.

[I’ve come to purify the devil. I will begin purifying you now.]

“Move aside! I don’t know who you are, but I have to kill that bastard!!”

[You shouldn’t kill people.]

Solar Platina said in a firm voice, setting the aura aside.

“Are you saying you’ll save that trash?!”

[…I don’t know what kind of trash this man is, but for now, I-]

“I just got married today, and that guy went to a motel with my sister yesterday!!”

[…….]

Solar Platina abruptly turned her head.

Her golden eyes glittering above the mask hardened, and the man felt as if the red whip would lash at him.

“Save me, please! I, I’ll repent! I don’t want to die! You’re a hero, right! Heroes are supposed to save people! Look, there’s a villain!! No, a demon!!”

[Tsk.]

Solar Platina swung the rope behind her.

The snake-like elongated rope quickly entangled the man, and having bound him with the aura, Solar Platina drew a new weapon in her hand.

[The one I wish to save is not that man.]

A golden folding fan shimmered in Solar Platina’s hand.

[I’m here to save you, who has become a demon because of such trash.]

“……!”

[From now on.]

Flutter.

As Solar Platina opened and swung the fan, a golden aura began to emanate from her.

[To this pitiful demon, the salvation of light.]

It was a little sudden, but in this world, ability users were able to create their own powers.

Of course, this was only possible for those who had awakened their abilities.

‘People without mana can’t use abilities.’

Officially, there were no cases where someone without abilities could use them or someone born before 2000 could use magic or abilities.

‘With mana, anything is possible with abilities.’

In comparison, ability users could create any kind of power as long as they had the skill.

‘Just like a magic wand can create anything, with mana and abilities, nothing is impossible.’

Naturally, this required a lot of magic power and was almost impossible, as it involved creating new natural laws in reality.

If abilities were like coding, then the existing abilities were algorithms that could be used immediately when needed.

The techniques people shouted were the process of processing these algorithms quickly.

Then, what could the process of creating abilities be compared to?

Writing my own code?

No.

It could be likened to ‘creating a coding language.’

If compared to real-world theories, it was like discovering and establishing notable academic mathematical or scientific theories.

Yumir was the protagonist and a genius in dealing with abilities.

For her, if she really needed an ability, there was virtually no ability she could not create.

She just needed to feel that it was absolutely necessary, to the point of feeling extremely inconvenienced without it, to generate the willpower to create it.

Like feeling the need to buy something worth five times one’s salary with a six-month interest-free credit card installment.

Such willpower resulted in the creation of the powerful ‘Space Movement’ ability.

“Crossing over like that, they wouldn’t know they went from Ulleungdo to Ulleungdo, would they?”

“Yes. If it were me… I’d probably think they went from Sejong Island to Ulleungdo.”

Baek Seol-hee and I watched Yumir from the sofa in the living room after coming out of the open-air bath through an 80-inch TV.

According to the information obtained, the demon ‘Sirmila’ was a newlywed couple who had their wedding in Gangneung this morning and headed to Ulleungdo, and the husband, Mr. Kang, had an affair with Sirmila’s sister, Ms. Cheon…

“…….”

I was momentarily at a loss for words.

Given the background of the incident caused by the demon, both Baek Seol-hee and I were momentarily speechless.

“Seol-hee.”

“Yes.”

“We have permission, so it’s okay.”

“…Is it really okay?”

“Yes. Their situation is a bit unfortunate, but we have discussed everything in advance and agreed, so it’s okay.”

It was infidelity, but not really.

Unknowingly committing it was cheating, but knowingly doing it became ‘play’.

“Besides, Yumir, everyone indeed has a lot of popularity. Ah, Seol-hee, aren’t you getting calls on your Taekwuk Watch right now?”

“Not today. It’s a magic day.”

“……Are you using menstrual leave? Seol-hee, if you are going to use that excuse, it would be a week from now-”

“……How do you know my cycle again?”

Baek Seol-hee narrowed her eyes and glared at me.

“How could you have known?”

“Well, you naturally find out when you talk. But Seol-hee, when I was talking with Yumir about space movement….”

“Let’s hear about that later.”

Baek Seol-hee turned up the TV volume with the remote and tightly grabbed my shoulder with one hand.

“Can we have a quiet conversation, just the two of us, right now?”

“No, I was about to talk about that-”

“Do Ji-hwan.”

Baek Seol-hee placed her index finger on my lips and brought her face close to mine.

“I want to eat a JjooJjooBar.”
