I Became a Student at the Transcension Academy

Side Story Chapter 10 - The first disciple...?(1)

“... Huh?”

For a moment, Carl felt a sense of being dumbfounded.

That's what Seo-joon just said.

Because I couldn't understand the meaning of the words.

Carls asked Seo-jun again just in case.

“Who... are you going to meet?”

“It’s Aren.”

And at the determined words of Seo-joon that followed, Carls got out of the way.

Aren, who said that he would go to meet Seo-joon.

Aren, as the emperor's maestro (太師), was simply an existence that reigned over the emperor, the ruler of the dimension.

If the emperor is the ruler of the dimension,

Aren is called the guardian of the dimension and has served as the ruler of the empire for a long time.

And according to Carl's long experience, Aren was not a being that he could meet just because he wanted to.

Even if the emperor wanted to meet him, he was an existence that he did not easily meet.

There is only one case where Aren shows up.

It was only when Aren himself visited the imperial palace.

But now what...

“Where was Aren’s residence...? I don't know where it is because I teleported.”

Of course, he wasn't someone I could go out to meet like I'd go out for a drink in the neighborhood!

Of course, Seo-joon was not an ordinary person.

A being who received a letter of recommendation from none other than Aren.

At the same time, he was also considered to be Aren's close friend.

So it doesn't make sense... but is that really possible?

Carls couldn't easily believe that fact.

The other day, when Kals went to see Aren on the pretext of the subjugation party.

To be honest, I was half-hearted.

To be honest, I assumed that I would never be able to meet Aren.

But that was the only way left, so I just went with the feeling of catching straw.

That's why I was surprised when Seo-joon gave Aren's recommendation.

“ah! Carls. The last time I met you for the first time Actually, you said you were going to meet Aren, not to subdue him, right? Do you know where Aren lives?”

Eventually, at Seo-jun's words, Carls suddenly came to his senses.

I could see Seo-joon's bewildered eyes through my gaze.

“I know, but...”

Seeing Seo-jun like that, Carls couldn't open his mouth easily.

That would be the case, though Carls knew Aren's whereabouts, but he could only guess the approximate location.

If you go to that location, Aren's judgment will determine whether you can meet him or not.

Even this was a fact that Kals was able to know because he had the status of the crown prince.

Others, even Vettel, were unknown.

can i say this?

Maybe I'm just walking in vain?

“That's...”

Carl's mind went into confusion.

#

After thinking for a long time, Carls told Aren's whereabouts.

Even if he didn't tell me anyway,

it wasn't Seo-joon who wouldn't visit Aren.

From the beginning, Carls had no other options.

where it was reached.

It was near the place where Seo-joon was chased by the money bug tree the other day.

“I think it's about this...”

Seojun looked around and checked Aren's place.

Carls looked at Seo-jun impatiently.

This is also the place that Carls knows as Aren's residence.

As I said earlier, this was not actually Aren's residence, but a place where those who wanted to visit Aren came.

And until now, Aren has not appeared.

That means one thing.

Aren said that he had no intention of meeting Seo-joon.

After all, no matter how Seojun was, he couldn't easily meet Aren.

“I... will die now and come back later...”

Carls said very carefully to Seo-jun.

“wait a minute. It must have been around here...”

However, Seo-joon seemed to have no intention of doing so.

How should Cals do this?

I have to tell the truth even now, but I am in serious trouble.

“Um…do I have to knock to say I’m here?”

< What if we blow the collapse of the world coolly? Then I think you'll be back soon. >

“And what if Aren's residence is blown away along with the forest here? And in my current state, I cannot withstand the reaction of the collapse of the world.”

< Um... that's a bit disappointing. >

The mentor sighed as if he was really sorry.

And Carls, who was quietly listening to their conversation.

“......”

Carls felt like his mind went blank for a moment.

What is the collapse of the universe?

What is it that can blow up this vast forest?

No, and where do you think that's a knock?

“It’s impossible to do it, but if it’s just the formula… I think it’ll be okay, shall we try it?”

< Oh! Then only this area will be bad. I can't wait this long, so let's try it ! And something... It seemed like something great was about to begin. Carls couldn't understand what was going on, but he couldn't let it go like this. "That's the truth..." That's when Carls tried to tell the truth as if to dissuade Seo-jun . "what? Are you here soon?” Suddenly, a strange voice came from somewhere. It was a sudden voice that was not at all disturbed by Carls, the sword master who did not even feel the presence of him. For an instant, Carl's body stiffened. And I slowly turned my head and looked at it. Long downed blonde hair and distinct features. The owner of such beauty that it is impossible to distinguish whether it is a woman or a man. An existence called the emperor's maestro and guardian of Astelgia. “I thought it would take a little longer… what are you doing?” Aren was slowly walking towards us!! "This this this this...!" Carls went mad for a moment and started to run amok. A shock that didn't even let out a word invaded his whole body. Really... It was really Aren. The existence in front of my eyes was really Aren!! “Oh oh oh oh oh...!!” Carls didn't know how to accept the current situation. And whether or not he knew Carl's feelings. “Why are you so late?” < We were debating whether we should even cast the collapse of the world because they didn't come so often! >

Seojun and the mentor only reprimanded Aren.

Reprimand Aren for a second...?

Carl's mind went out of his mind at the sight of the two of them.

“I was out for a while. But if it's a cataclysmic collapse... Are you referring to the Cheonwol Yuseongchang that instructor Jecheon Daeseong made for Seojun Kim?”

< Yes! I thought Aren would come if I cut out a forest! >

What makes a mentor so confident?

He put his hand on his hip and nodded vigorously.

At the sight of such a mentor, Aren said with an absurd look.

“If you get lost in a single forest, you’re lucky. Maybe I'll get caught up in it and die... Hmm?”

At the same time, Aren was able to discover a certain existence.

“Uh uh... uh uh...!”

I was able to find Kals, who had gone beyond astonishment to the brink of fainting, almost out of breath.

“This one?”

“Ah, Monk Carl is the crown prince of the empire.”

“The Crown Prince?”

At Seojun's words, Aren tilted his head for a moment.

And after thinking about it for a while, it seemed like it suddenly came to mind.

“ah! Is that the kid you saw then?”

They clapped in pairs and opened their eyes wide.

“I didn’t recognize it because it was all I saw so long ago.”

And Carls, who watched Aren like that.

Carls was frightened and hurriedly became polite.

“Karls von Bologne, Crown Prince of the Bo Bologne Empire, welcomes the noble Taesa of the Empire!”

Aren gave a small smile to Carls.

“You don’t have to be so polite.”

“Oh no! How can I tell the prince of the empire...”

Cals was restless as if he didn't know what to do.

“By the way...”

Aren looked at Carls like that, then slowly turned his gaze to Seojun.

“Are you already in touch with the crown prince?”

“What… why? And didn't you write a letter of recommendation for that?”

“That's what it was, but... I didn't expect it to work this fast.”

< It's been a while since you sold Aren's name? >

“You sold my name?”

“I didn't sell it... I got a little help. ha ha ha.”

Seojun scratched the back of his head and covered his mentor's mouth.

“There was no need to write a letter of recommendation in the first place.”

Aren shook his head as if it were Seojun.

“So what did you come to see me for? There's no way you've already gathered enough cause and effect—”

“I've been collecting them.”

“...... yes?”

For a moment, Aren wondered if he had heard it wrong.

However, Seo-joon's expression when he looked at him didn't look like he was lying at all.

“......”

Aren didn’t even know how to react to this.

Aren's ‘sufficient' causation.

In fact, only words were ‘enough', but the concept of ‘terrible' was included in it.

In a word, it was not a cause and effect that could be solved with one or two things.

But you've been collecting them?

in this short time?

“I haven't gathered all of them, but I've gathered enough to get some of my power back. And I have something to ask.”

Apparently, not all causality was necessary.

Just like Seo-jun said, he was able to regain some of his lost power.

But even that fell into the category of ‘terrible'.

“What is that…”

Aren looked back at Carls.

Then why?

“That...that's...”

Carls started avoiding Aren's gaze.

It seemed like there was something complicated going on.

No, I thought I knew roughly what was going on.

Aren shook his head again.

“Let’s change seats.”

Damn-!

At the same time, a clear sound is heard.

Before long, an unknown energy began to surround Seo-joon, his mentor, and Carls.

Seo-joon did not resist the force.

and momentarily

Whoaaaaagh!

For an instant, Seo-jun's vision reversed.

#

The first thing Seo-joon saw with the sight reversing again was a certain room.

Overall, the room is spacious, clean, and has a warm atmosphere.

It was a room that felt like the house of a great sage living alone away from the world. It was none other than Aren's residence the last time.

“W Is this…?”

As I was looking around Aren's room, I suddenly heard Carl's voice.

Carls looked around with a bewildered expression.

Seeing Carl's like that, Aren said with a small smile.

“This is where I live. It's shabby, but you can sit in a comfortable place.”

“Taesa's residence...?”

Then, Carl's expression was dumbfounded.

“My God, my God!”

Eventually, Carl's expression began to show amazement, shock, and a little fear.

It seems to be facing a reality that cannot be faced.

Or maybe it's the glory of the world.

Carls hardened in place as if he had become a stone statue.

< Oh! Medusa's level of petrification ability? >

Seeing Carl's like that, the mentor stepped closer.

Then, he stabbed Carl's whole body.

But is it really a stone statue?

Carls really didn't show any reaction.

Mentor continued to beat Carl as if he was having fun.

Seojun looked at the two of them and said to Aren.

“As you can see, Aren’s position here is enormous. To the extent that I cannot simply think of him as the emperor's teacher.”

“Well... Seojun Kim did something similar to Seojun Kim's level. But it was a long time ago, so I'm sure I'll forget it... That kid is a bit unusual.”

Aren shook his head and answered.

Looking at the reaction of the nobles, it seemed that Kals was not particularly unusual, but Seo-jun did not bother to ask about it.

Because that's not what's important now.

“Can I get some of my strength back?”

“May I check the cause and effect you’ve gathered?”

Seojun immediately lifted the kibisis and poured out the contents inside.

Patter.

Then, gold poured out endlessly, and it stopped only after creating several piles.

Literally a huge amount of gold.

“Really... you've collected an incredible amount in that short amount of time.”

Aren looked at the pile of gold and Seo-jun alternately with a blank expression.

“How much can I get back with this?”

Seo-joon's question continued.

Aren continued to think for a while, then slowly opened his mouth.

“I'll have to try, but I think I can get at least 10% back.”

“If it's 10%...”

I was able to withstand the recoil of the universal collapse.

The truth that I realized at the end - the destruction of all things was impossible.

However, a pure type 1 cataclysm would have been able to be cast without difficulty.

“Hmm...”

Seo-joon, who organized his thoughts, let out a small saliva.

In addition to the existing 5%, it regains approximately 15% of the power.

It was a power that was regained faster than expected, but

in a way, it was a power that was regained more slowly than expected.

That would be the case, too. The money now was the money he had saved over the past few days by splitting Seo-joon's sleeping hours.

How many times have you teleported around the entire empire?

Now, just teleporting was enough to make me vomit.

10% of the power regained with the money collected through such hardships.

Of course, it was a speed that could be fast if it was fast.

Besides, it was also a power that I thought I would never get back.

However, considering the cause and effect of returning to Earth, there was still a long way to go.

‘Above all, I can't take the royal family's money indefinitely.'

Seojun was lost in thought for a moment.

And was Seo-joon's appearance suspicious?

“What are you worried about?”

Aren tilted his head and asked Seo-jun.

“Ah, that's it...”

Seojun briefly explained to Aren what he had just thought.

“Hmm... There are so many causalities Kim Seo-joon needs. Even more, the more power you regain, the more causality you need...”

Aren looked down as if thinking for a moment.

Then all of a sudden

“Then why don’t you try tutoring that child?”

Aren gave me a meaningful message.

“Do you teach children?”

Looking at Aren, he was looking at a place other than Seo-joon.

Seojun naturally followed Aren's gaze and turned his head.

And the place I looked at again.

“You mean Carl?”

There was none other than the petrified Cals.

“hot!”

Is it because he suddenly heard his name?

Cals, whose petrification had been released, shook his body.

Then, he found Seojun and Carls looking around him.

“What's going on...?”

He shook his body once more.

A figure that could not be seen as the crown prince of the empire.

“Um…”

Seo-joon looked at Carls blankly.

Before becoming Crown Prince, Cals was one of the Empire's few sword masters.

Of course, it was a different concept from the Transcendental Sword Master, but he was more than a hero of cataclysm on Earth.

That's how Carl's talent was outstanding.

There shouldn't be anything frustrating about teaching.

And above all.

‘Then, will I become the Grand Master of the Empire too?'

Seo Jun could also become the Taesa of the empire.

And to become the prince of the empire.

Seeing how Aren, the current emperor's teacher, was being treated in the Empire, there was no reason to refuse.

Then, wouldn't it bring you money that you don't really have?

Also, did Seo-jun look at the atmosphere of the imperial palace?

Carl's position within the current imperial palace was not very firm.

The reason for this is power, but

it also played a role in being inferior to Vettel.

That's why it was only a matter of time before Kals seized the imperial palace if he could crush it with his skills.

Carl's status was always the crown prince, and

the cause of power was of course because Carl's had an overwhelming advantage.

If so, all the property of the imperial palace...

plus the cost of tutoring Carls...

< Oh! Kim Seo-joon, did you finally think of filming the lecture!? “Then is that child also a freshman now?” At the same time, Aren said excitedly. But are you a freshman? When Seojun looked at Aren, Aren smiled and said, “It’s not me, it’s Kim Seo-joon who teaches.” < I see. Since Kim Seo-jun is also clearly a transcendentalist, the Carl monk who learns from Kim Seo-jun will naturally become a first-time student. Then, naturally, I am in charge of Carl's job...? >

“Ah...”

Seojun nodded slightly.

I still couldn't believe it, but Aren was still a beginner.

On the other hand, Seo Jun was a transcendentalist who stepped into the realm of transcendence.

That's a transcendental person on the same level as Irina, the director of the transcendentalist academy.

< Anyway, that's a great idea, Aren! Kim Seo-joon will become a star instructor at our academy in the future! It's good to practice here before that ! The mentor lightly ignored Seo-jun's words. < First of all... lightly, whether it's Betel or an upset stomach. Shall we design a curriculum that will crush that old serpent? >

The mentor approached Seo-jun with a look of excitement.

Then, he almost robbed Seo-joon's smartphone and manipulated this and that.

The connection to the transcendent academy was still unreachable, but the basic system was available.

< If this is like this and that is like this... >

How much time has passed like that.

The mentor approached Poljjak Carls to see if he had created a curriculum.

< The composition looks like this, and the price seems to be about this! >

“This is crazy.”

And Carls, who checked the price tag, muttered involuntarily.

No, to be precise, his body stiffened as if he had been petrified again by Medusa.

That would be the price that Carls confirmed.

《50000000000 G》

50 billion gold.

It was about 500 trillion in Korean currency!

Where in the world did tutoring cost 50 billion gold?

This made no sense.

It didn't even make sense!

But really.

Really why?

“The instructor is a lot cheaper than I thought for Kim Seo-joon?”

Aren, who was watching it, was talking crazy.

It was like he had dared to think disobediently to the Grand Master of the Empire, but Cals didn't realize it at all.

50 billion gold is not even a dog's name.

Where can I say that it is cheap!!

< Anyway, Kim Seo-joon is directly here in this dimension. Naturally, there is no choice but to reduce travel expenses. >

“Oh, that’s right. Somehow, I thought 50 billion gold per hour was free.”

Startle!!!

It was as if Carl's mind had gone out of his mind for a moment and heard something crazy.

The concept of ‘per hour' in front of 50 billion gold.

So, 50 billion gold per hour?

Isn't it just 50 billion gold?

“This crazy...”

Carls couldn't help but mutter involuntarily.

And Aren's voice came again.

“While you are doing 50 billion gold, I was going to ask you to teach me a little bit.”

Then Carls opened his eyes wide and looked surprised.

“yes yes?? Taesa-nim... are you talking about it?”

Carls couldn't come to his senses.

who is aren

It was an existence that raised the emperor, who is called the ruler of the dimension, with his own hands.

Of course, he was an overwhelmingly powerful man who surpassed the emperor.

But Aren wants to teach me...?

< Aren, you can't. Aren-nim should get 200 times that ! It was a ridiculous amount, equivalent to a whopping 10 won in Korean currency. “That would be per hour too, right?” < Yes! It's per hour! >

The problem is that it's also per hour.

Not 1 trillion per hour,

not 10 trillion, not 100 trillion.

Not even 1000 trillion.

It sounds like you're going crazy, but it's not even a second.

It's a whopping 10.

It's hard to say something that doesn't sound like something like saying that you're going to take 10 views at a time...

< And it's hard because the field is different. Aren-nim is specialized in magic. It's a pity, but Kim Seo-jun-nim says that magic is a gem disease! >

“That's really unfortunate.”

But oh my god

Aren is missing you!

Not pretending to be sad, really!

“Oh my gosh...!!!!!”

Carls felt dizzy.

No, it's already dizzy!

dump.

Carl's body fell to the floor like a puppet with a string cut off.

It seems that Medusa's petrification has finally affected her mind.

Mentor approached the fallen Carls with gunfire.

Then he stabbed me in the side.

< Anyway, you should get used to the causal concept of our Transcendent Academy. >

He shook his head.
