Chapter 47
The poison killed its target slowly without them knowing . The red dot was the symptom that showed when the person was poisoned .
Chun Yeowun bit his lips .
‘Mother…’
His mother, Lady Hwa, was killed by the same poison and Yeowun couldn’t forget the fact . He had learned from the pain of having his loved one die .
‘How can he be poisoned?’
The symptom seemed to be severe . Lady Hwa had those dots a few months before she died, and Bakgi had the same dots .
‘That only appears after long exposure . ’
It was weird for Bakgi to have been exposed to the poison for a long time .
‘Chun Jongsum!’
Yeowun then remembered Jongsum who was smiling at Bakgi . That was why Yeowun had to check Bakgi’s video in the first place . Bakgi was the only one who defeated the prince within the group . It was likely that Chun Jongsum was angry and embarrassed . However, as far as Yeowun knew, one needed to be exposed to the poison through years of dosage .
‘He was either poisoned before he entered the academy, or Chun Jongsum used a heavy dose . ’
It was likely that the latter was what was happening . The former was also possible but Chun Yeowun leaned toward the latter .
‘Bastard…’
To Yeowun, poison was frowned upon since it killed his mother . He knew he didn’t have to do anything with the problem between Bakgi and Chun Jongsum, but seeing the same poison being used made him furious .
‘He will try to do the same against others with the poison . I can’t say he’s doing anything wrong in the Demonic Cult Academy, but I can’t let him do that . ”
Chun Yeowun then decided to destroy Chun Jongsum’s evil plans .
At the training ground, a duel was going on . One person was a instructor and the other was 5th cadet Chun Yuchan .
‘He’s beyond the level of the other cadets too . ’
Instructor Hong Duwi was astonished . The fight was a close match since both of them were at the level of master warriors .
‘I can’t defeat him with the Seven Demon Sword only . ’
The Seven Demon Sword was being countered . It wasn’t a perfect counter like what Chun Yeowun did, but it was still being countered .
‘He’s also a genius like those two . ’
They didn’t need to duel anymore . Chun Yuchan already had enough power and knowledge regarding the skill . Hong Duwi took a few steps back and raised his hand to stop . Chun Yuchan smiled back .
“This is enough . ”
“Meaning?”
“Here’s the tag . ”
Hong Duwi then took the tag and gave it to Chun Yuchan .
“Haha! I’m a group leader now!”
“Yes, congratulations . I wish you luck . ”
“Thank you, Instructor . ”
Chun Yuchan bowed . After he saw Hong Duwi return to the building, he grinned .
“There’s one . Who should I go for next?”
It was now close to dinner time . The cafeteria was crowded with cadets who were busy eating . They were all smiling as their internal energy had increased greatly from absorbing the Black Dragon Ball . But those cadets who had not achieved the thirty years worth of energy were gloomy, since having that much was the basic requirement to learn the Seven Demon Sword .
That’s when everyone turned to the person walking in . It was the 18th cadet, Bakgi . He was alone, unlike the other group leader worthy cadets . He took a seat in an empty corner and began to eat .
Someone then sat down in front of him . Bakgi did not look up .
“Hey, 18th cadet . ”
Bakgi then raised his face . It was Chun Kungwun, the prince from the Sword Clan .
“What is it?”
“I watched your duel . ”
Bakgi placed his chopsticks on the bowl and glared at Chun Kungwun .
‘How dare he?’
Chun Kungwun did not like Bakgi’s attitude . Most cadets were always polite toward him since he was still a prince, but Bakgi wasn’t like that .
“I am eating . What do you want?”
Bakgi was curt . Chun Kungwun became angrier, but he kept his calm .
“Hmph . I noticed you were at the master level . ”
Bakgi was appalled . It seemed like he had seen the qi too . This meant that Chun Kungwun was also a master .
“I like your skill . I think you want to be a group leader, but don’t you want to go up higher?”
“Ah…” Bakgi sighed as he realized Chun Kungwun’s intentions . He was offering him to join his group . Bakgi then began to eat . Chun Kungwun frowned, but he wasn’t the type to show his anger in front of everyone else .
“Well, you think about it . ”
Chun Kungwun left and Bakgi focused on the food . This was the second time already . When he was on his way to the training room, Chun Yuchan had already come up to him, offering a spot in his group . Bakgi refused since he wasn’t interested in joining the princes’ groups . All he wanted was to become strong .
He kept eating while he was irritated, until someone sat in front of him again .
“I’m sorry, but can we talk?”
‘Ugh… again?’
Bakgi sighed . If he had known that this would happen, he would not have challenged instructor in front of everyone else . He spat at the cadet .
“Not interested . Get lost . ”
“…Hm . ”
The cadet moaned . It was Chun Yeowun .
