Misunderstood as a Villainous Villain

17 – Misunderstood as a vicious villain 17

To continue making excuses here, I had no choice but to open some of my abilities.

It was already a situation where he was accused of being a spy rather than simply being expelled.

It’s dangerous to open your abilities, but it’s even more dangerous to end up as a spy whose lies have been destroyed without opening it.

‘Now, you have to explain it well. Don’t let the mental hospital ending happen!’

It’s an ability that can’t be revealed anyway.

Let them know that it is an automatic counterattack, not of their own will, but appeal as harmless as possible.

Sehyun took a few deep breaths quietly as she organized her thoughts before carefully speaking.

“I don’t know if I can say this, but it is because of the abilities in my skill… … .”

“Oh, what ability is it?”

“That’s the ability to counterattack when attacked.”

It is the ability to counterattack when attacked.

Kim Tae-hwan stroked his beard like a habit.

It’s definitely a unique and unheard of ability, but I couldn’t say it was impossible at all.

Because there are countless types of characteristics and skills in the world.

There were also many unique abilities that were not registered in the database.

It was also the reason why hiding one’s abilities was not a violation of school rules.

“Let me explain in more detail.”

“When the opponent attacks, you can react to the attack and counterattack to stop it. The counterattack has the effect of temporarily neutralizing the defense, but the power itself is weak, so it cannot deliver meaningful damage. It’s not meant to attack, it’s just an ability to defend yourself.”

Sehyun tries to appeal to the harmlessness of unconsciousness as much as possible.

“Hmm.”

Taehwan calmly cooled his head and recalled the time he was attacked by Sehyeon in detail.

‘Yes, sure… … .’

Just before the drop kick landed, the mana shield was pulverized like a sheet of paper in front of the drill.

When the foot hit the face, even the skin, which had been trained through the reorganization of the body, lost its protective barrier and allowed the hit.

‘But the power of the blow itself was at the level of ordinary people. No matter how hard you hit it, you can’t suffocate an Awakener with a B rank or higher.’

A superpower-type skill that completely neutralizes defenses rather than piercing them with strong power.

A common feature without exception among Awakeners with such abilities was that their offensive ability was greatly reduced.

‘If that’s the case, all the actions are understandable, but… … It’s still only his words, so I can’t trust him straight away.’

Taehwan questioned him a little more and decided to test this and that.

“Why did you hide that you had that ability during the admissions interview?”

“that’s… … As the chairman felt, isn’t it a strange ability no matter who sees it? I was afraid that I would be locked up and become something like a research subject. It’s because it’s difficult to control my abilities.”

“There are so many unique traits and skills in the world, and it makes a fuss with that much… … .”

In fact, it was a very unusual ability even from Taehwan’s point of view.

The mana shield neutralization itself is not common, but it is an ability that can be seen occasionally, but it is the first time I have seen it activated at the same time as a counterattack.

Still, it’s not to the extent of being locked up and studied.

It might be the case with the villains, but at least from the clan side.

“Then good. Let’s check here to see if what you’re saying is true. Get up and punch me.”

“Ugh. Oh, I see.”

Sehyun stood up and stood at attention.

‘If it’s enough to detect and activate that mana bullet, it’s said that it will block all sorts of surprises… … Where should I look?’

Thinking so, Taehwan attempted a surprise attack with a very fast jab.

baek!

However, it was faster for Sehyeon’s fist to fly and pierce his philtrum.

“Chew.”

From Taehwan’s mouth, which was wrapped around his philtrum, abusive words that did not suit his age and dignity came out.

‘It’s not just about crushing the mana shield. Something like a strange energy sluggishes the nerves and slows down the reaction, taking out the soul the moment it is hit. It’s so exquisite that even an awakened person like me can’t figure out what’s what if I’m not focused!’

The stopping power that comes out of admiration.

Apart from being great, I was annoyed.

“… … Why are you hitting me in the face?”

“It’s not just about hitting the face… … I think it’s because it’s embarrassing, and it can effectively stop the action. I’ve tried this and that, but it has no other purpose than just me.”

Admittedly, it depends, but when it comes to human opponents, punching them in the face whenever possible is a good deterrent.

‘If a surprise attack is prevented in this way, how about a continuous attack without a break?’

puck! baek! Bubbubuck! baek!

In that way, it took an hour and a half to test Sehyun’s abilities.

“… … It certainly seems to be an ability for defense.”

Taehwan’s face swelled up like a bun.

“Hey, Chairman, are you okay?”

“Well? What do you mean?”

“Your face is very swollen… … .”

“Hey, if you sit still and rest like this, you will quickly sink.”

After Taehwan answered, he considered Sehyeon’s abilities.

‘Even if the applied power continued to increase, the damage caused by the counterattack did not deviate from the level that ordinary people would get. Because the defense is completely neutralized, there is pain and hurt, but it cannot inflict more than a certain amount of damage. If an awakened person of A rank or higher is going to die from being hit by this, it would be faster to just die of old age. It’s powerful, but it’s missing a screw where it matters… … .’

Even if the screw is missing, it is clear that it is a very strong ability.

No matter how old he was and he didn’t use his full strength, he couldn’t even hit a single blow even though he, an S-rank hunter, kept attacking.

It’s too early to judge, but in terms of defensive ability, I think it belongs to the upper ranks among the S ranks.

‘As for the ability itself, I think you can trust it. There’s no other way.’

If you forcibly judge that there is room for something else, in fact, Yoon Se-hyun has ridiculous skills and shows this kind of performance with only a small amount of mana and physical strength at the level of ordinary people without any unusual characteristics… … .

If you don’t know what to say, the other person is yourself.

If that was possible, it was an unrealistic ghost story, so I decided to dismiss it.

Perhaps Kim Tae-hwan would never know that the ghost story was real.

“More than that, I haven’t fully trusted you yet.”

In terms of ability, it was definitely verified.

I understood the reason why I committed this kind of eccentricity.

However, even so, there is no guarantee that he did not infiltrate the academy by entering undercover for a specific purpose.

“How can I trust you?”

“Try to prove your ideas with tangible results. Join the villain tracking team and actively cooperate in catching the villain. Then I will trust you to be a good student.”

“What, what.”

A villain tracking team?

Just by listening to it, I can feel that it is a dangerous job that active hunters risk their lives.

“Why can’t I?”

“no… … Still, I’m a fresh academy freshman. There is no offensive ability at all, and such dangerous things are a bit… … Would you accept me from that place in the first place? A kid like me won’t accept it because it’s a hindrance.”

It was a question for Taehwan that he was abnormally lacking in confidence even with such a tremendous defensive ability.

Just like you know you’re a weak person.

‘Am I acting while knowing everything, or did I just not realize it because it wasn’t long after I woke up… … I can’t tell them apart.’

Either way, this action seemed necessary.

If he is a spy, then he would have no intention of attending the academy anymore since he was discovered by the chairman.

If you release him for a while in the name of participating in the villain sweep, he will immediately pull himself out and run away.

Then you can catch it again.

If you’ve been a really good student, this hands-on experience will help you realize your powerful abilities.

‘Anyway, if it’s a decent villain, I won’t be able to touch it.’

In Taehwan’s eyes, there was a possibility that Sehyeon’s awakened ability was difficult to measure.

If you grow a little more, wrap it well, and don’t reveal your weaknesses, that possibility that could become a huge fear for the villains… … .

In many ways, it’s a waste to rot.

‘If this guy is on the side of the clan, it might be a great joker card in the current game. I hope it’s not like an outside spy.’

Assuming that I am not a spy, I have a junior that I want to raise properly after a long time.

It’s already been 7 years since he took the position of president of the academy, but he is the first cadet with such a unique identity.

Anyway, I hoped things worked out well.

“No need to worry. That much is possible as long as my breath touches it.”

“… … Are you serious?”

“Then you think you’re saying this as a joke?”

“No, then what about classes? Missing class would be a big blow! I’m also an academy cadet, so I have to pay attention to my grades!”

In the meantime, I don’t think he’s interested in doing sexual things.

“The course you applied for… … Was it the basic class of the Faculty of Magic?”

“Yes.”

“That’s no problem either. When you come back from the mission, I will give you a special make-up class myself. That would be better for you.”

“… … .”

In this way, there was really nothing to lose.

Do we really have to do it, clearing the villains?

“And from now on, don’t tell anyone about your abilities. Even if someone higher than me comes. I won’t spread this anywhere and only I will know.”

“Why is that?”

“Anyway, it’s to your advantage, so don’t gossip about what adults say.”

“Well… … I know what.”

Anyway, Sehyun didn’t have any intention of going around talking to the neighborhood.

Wouldn’t it be rather good if only the chairman knew about it?

I’m just worried about the future.

“By the way… … The basic class of the Faculty of Magic, are you even listening to it?”

“I am listening more seriously than anyone else.”

“Why do you have that ability?”

“Magic… … Because you like it?”

“Um, yes I got it. I’ll call you when the time is right, so let’s go out and see.”

“All right.”

As soon as Sehyeon left, Taehwan picked up the phone and started talking.

It was to solve various problems such as the process of joining the villain tracking team or preventing escape.
