“…”

Seeing me appear under the crow mask, Gye Bastard’s jaw dropped and his expression was stupid.

He inhaled, and I felt disappointment, embarrassment, and shame from him when he saw my appearance.

The disappointment grew even more when he realized that he hadn’t dealt with the situation properly.

He took care of the obvious enemies, but now that they’re dealing with an otherworld, how can the defense leader be so careless?

Kim Hyungu and Park Seunghyun, who were in the middle of the crisis just now, seemed calmer than him.

“Oh, it’s the Nameless Supernova.”

“It was Euishin who shot the bullet. You saved us!”

Hearing Park Seunghyun speak with confidence made me feel better.

He thanked me for a bit and then asked why I was here late.

“I thought Euishin was in another area since there were no Class Zero kids in the residential area!”

Park Seunghyun’s eyes stayed on the crow mask item card in my hand.

I guess it bothered him that I was hiding myself.

I was about to go see Sung Siwan when I decided to intervene in this situation anyway, so I decided to tell him what I could reveal.

“I started from the freshmen area and came here from the central area. I’m wearing this because I have to stifle my presence while on the move.”

“Oh, I see… It’s difficult to join the central area, right?”

“If several people were to move together, it would be difficult to move without getting noticed. You might have to engage with enemies.”

Park Seunghyun’s face darkened by my words.

He thought about the possibility of having backup forces other than me and the possibility of joining the others in the central area.

But I was the only one who came here, and leaving this place wasn’t ideal.

Park Seungyhun looked at me and then at the barricade with a complex expression.

“It’s a dangerous situation, but I’m glad you got here safe, Euishin. By the way…”

Park Seunghyun’s words trailed.

During the April Fool’s Day, Park Seunghyun witnessed a very suspicious thing I did to save some people.

I used Do Wonwoo’s light skill Iron Chains in front of him, and I showed him the Weight and Wealth of Life item card.

Park Seunghyun didn’t ask deeply about the skill and item that I used, nor did he ask how I knew he was in a crisis.

The only thing Park Seunghyun asked me that day was my device code.

He may be wondering why I came here, but Park Seunghyun didn’t ask any questions.

“Thanks for saving us. But how did you end up here? I don’t think you knew there would be enemies here though.”

Kim Hyungu thanked me and asked a question, unlike Park Seunghyun.

Of course, I couldn’t tell him everything.

“I have something to do.”

“…That’s suspicious. Still, I feel reassured that you’ll be fighting with us. Let’s stay with the defense line together until the end of their attack.”

I’ve spoken to Kim Hyungu several times, mostly while he was with Park Seunghyun.

Although he bluntly called me suspicious, I think we became close enough to just pass it off instead of explaining further.

“What’s the situation in the central area? I heard the former student representative’s broadcast.”

“It’s as Do Wonwoo sunbaenim said. There are a lot of things going on, but I’ll tell you when Sung Siwan sunbaenim joins after they’re done attacking the otherworld.”

As if it heard my words, the gap to the otherworld blurred a little.

It was a sign that they were almost done.

It happens when the attack team reaches the boss's room.

The situation inside can’t be grasped entirely, but the attack seemed to be ending safely under Sung Siwan’s command.

‘As expected, the otherworld isn’t what wiped out Jiikhoe.’

At that moment, Gye Bastard, who had been spacing out, finally butted in.

“…How’s the situation outside the school? Is there any possibility of backup coming in?”

Gye Idam suddenly asked about the situation outside.

It’s a rational question, but it was strange to ask it suddenly at the time when the attack is about to be completed.

Kim Hyungu and Park Seunghyun listened quietly since Gye Idam is a senior, but they seemed to think it’s a little strange too.

“Is there a possibility that the central area succeeded in communicating with outside? I don’t know.”

“Do Wonwoo sunbaenim’s broadcast didn’t mention anything about that…”

Suddenly, I could vaguely guess why Gye Idam brought it up.

He realized that Jiikhoe’s annihilation wasn’t because of the otherworld too.

We don’t know what’s going to happen, so he’s hoping for outside support.

‘He’d know how’s the situation outside if he played PMH properly.’

We looked into his memories, and he couldn’t have known.

I felt the pain of the transcendent universe bringing such a pathetic guy as a candidate.

It was ridiculous, so I returned the question.

“…Outside the school?”

At my short response, I saw Gye Idam gulp.

I guess he really doesn’t know.

I wanted to shame him, but I couldn’t since Park Seunghyun and Kim Hyungu were here.

Well, the whole school knows about how I beat up Gye Idam during our battle, but there’s no need to publicly show that ugly situation.

‘There’s nothing he can do even if he knows anyway.’

I hope that bastard can fight well without worrying about things he can’t do anything about.

I didn’t bother answering him.

***

Central area, at the Silver Hall.

One of the safest places in Eungwang High was currently closed.

There was a notice that Chairman Hwang Myeongho would be away from school, and so the Silver Hall was closed accordingly.

The Student Association considered the Silver Hall as an evacuation place since enemies can’t enter, but…

The Chairman’s permission is needed to enter Silver Hall, and since communication outside the school isn’t possible, they gave up the idea.

However, there was actually someone inside.

Cheon Dongha.

‘…Everyone’s fighting! What the heck are these enemies?!’

Cheon Dongha looked around the Student Association Hall and the Jiikhoe with a Seer skill.

None of those fighting enemies were seriously injured, but the number of students with minor injuries gradually increased.

Overwhelmed by the urge to fight with the others, Cheon Dongha almost ran out of the Silver Hall several times.

But reason kept him here every time.

‘I should trust Eunha and Euishin. I have to do what I’m supposed to do here to reduce damage.’

The reason why Cheon Dongha, a powerful player, was placed within the safe confines of Silver Hall was because of his light skill, Eyes Embracing Heaven and Earth.

That light skill is a rare ability that can read enemies’ movements and where they’re hiding.

Most importantly, it allows him to have the widest view of Eungwang High.

‘A Seer skill isn’t enough.’

He could read enemies’ movements, but not those who were hiding.

The enemies who infiltrated Eungwang High seemed to be fit to deceive the mythical Tiger Clan.

Eunho asked Cheon Dongha to remain in Silver Hall.

— You said you noticed Jeokho-nim through his fog using your light skill, right Dongha hyung?

Cheon Dongha nodded.

When Cheon Eunha’s body was moved to the Silver Hall by the Tiger Clan, Cheon Dongha saw through Jeokho’s red fog.

He didn’t completely know what was inside, but he detected it.

Cheon Dongha saw everything from the appearance of the red fog leaving Hwangmyeong Research Institute and entering Eungwang High.

— Then we have no problem. Enemies will be using high-level hiding abilities, but they’re not at Jeokho-nim’s level. I’m sure they’re no match to your eyes, Dongha hyung.

Cheon Dongha couldn’t speak a single word of denial seeing his younger brother talk with such joy.

He was reluctant to send Eunho to the meeting on his behalf, and it was heartbreaking that he couldn’t fight with the other students outside.

Still, Cheon Dongha chose to stay inside Silver Hall for the school and his brother.

While Cheon Dongha was feeling his nerves, he heard a business-like voice.

“One of the Eight Real Bears is caught. Please activate your light skill to check the entire school now.”

It was the Chairman’s secretary, also one of the Tiger Clan.

Hwang Myeongho’s direct secretary remained to escort Cheon Dongha.

Fwish…

As if the carrier pigeon item finished its task, the pigeon disappeared into thin air.

The Tiger Clan generously uses a high-rarity carrier pigeon item to communicate.

The son of a conglomerate family, Cheon Dongha, was also shocked by the number of item cards being used.

Of course, no matter how expensive those cards were, they’re nothing compared to the safety of the students.

‘Finally, I can use my light skill.’

Until now, Cheon Dongha had refrained from using his light skill to save on physical strength and power.

His light skill is wide-scale, requiring a lot of energy waves and endurance.

In addition, a sudden surge of information comes to him all at once, and he could easily get fatigued.

He doesn’t know how the hell Jo Euishin knew, so he couldn’t even attempt to bluff his way out.

“Please go ahead.”

At the secretary’s words, Cheon Dongha released energy waves.

He activated his light skill and information began to pour into his head.

Cheon Dongha identified important points.

People with umbrellas stand on the roof of the sophomore building.

The blue-green lake had nothing but a waterway.

Enemies wandering around the same place as if on watch.

He used his eyes to follow the traces of energy waves of those who were using hiding skills.

He pointed them out one by one, finding a different sense of incompatibility from the school landscape that Cheon Dongha knew.

While sending the coordinates and identifying things, something very strange came into Cheon Dongha’s eyes.

“This is, what the hell…”

Cheon Dongha’s voice, which calmly recited to coordinates just now, suddenly trembled.

He forgot for a moment that Hwang Myeongho’s secretary was with him.

“What’s going on outside the school…!”

Cheon Dongha doubted his eyes.

However, even with the Seer skill, he saw the same thing.

What he saw was Eungwang High’s boundary.

The boundary of Eungwang High was covered with frost coming from outside.
