The Reincarnated Person Became a Professor at the Academy

When you hear the word dungeon, you usually imagine a dark space.

Because if you create a dungeon in a plain or mountain, it will be soon discovered by others and looted.

Not because you can obtain money or rare items.

“Just put a bounty on them in the Empire.

Thanks to Emperor who announced that anyone who captures them will be rewarded with money or Imperial citizenship.

“But it’s a dungeon…”

In the world I was in, dungeons weren’t really profitable places to make money.

Most of the people who create dungeons are low-level wizards banished from the Tower of Magic.

Some say there are wizards who research forbidden dark magic, but…

“I killed all those bastards.”

I killed every single one of them.

Cleanly, with my own hands.

They were just summoning a superior demon, claiming they had summoned the Demon King.

Why would rich people hide away in corners to do research?

The Empire created a place for wizards to gather and exchange knowledge.

But those who failed there went out, claiming to summon the Demon King for a worthless cause.

I managed to entice those who went out and summoned dozens of wizards, just for one superior demon.

And that superior demon didn’t even cause any damage.

It’s because it died cleanly in my hands, the same hands that went out to grab a drink.

However, the strength of the superior demon left quite an impression.

Perhaps a few cities were reduced to ruins.

That’s why I had no choice but to kill all those who were researching forbidden dark magic.

“But the Demon King did appear in the end.”

A person who introduced themselves as the Dragon King came to mind.

But they were not the ones summoned by them.

In the first place, they forcibly descended with weakened power, bending space.

Perhaps that subject was what they called a “Mashin.”

“In the end, I brought them down with my own hands.”

Some may call it an achievement, but I consider it a mere victory in death.

Those who believed in me and followed me.

Those who waited for me.

Those who anticipated my demise.

I cast them all aside to kill the Demon King.

Anyway.

A dungeon is such a place.

There are many traps, but nothing rare.

Money?

I doubt there are only a few surviving individuals barely sustaining themselves in caves after being banished.

That was my image of a dungeon.

However, now that image has changed a bit.

“This is quite surprising.”

I exclaimed sincerely, looking around.

It was a place illuminated by sunlight.

The wind gently rustled through the field.

This was the place Yu Eunchae had introduced to me as a ‘dungeon’ while saying, “How do you like it? Surprising, isn’t it?”

She extended her chest and looked at me with a smirk.

I paid no attention and glanced behind.

──────────────────────

《Nest of Malevolence.》

《You cannot leave until you eradicate the evil presence here.》

──────────────────────

The system window was conveying the objective of this place.

Kill the existence known as malevolence and then leave.

‘It might be lucky on this side, considering the circumstances.’

Though the aura of Yin leans towards the cold, the power I newly created, called Moonlight, contains the energy of the moon.

──────────────────────

「Moonlight (A)」

Harmony of the power of the moon and the power of Yin.

: The power of the moon and Yin’s energy imbue you.

: All attributes +5

──────────────────────

The system defined my power in this way.

The energy of the moon and the power of darkness are in harmony.

How has moonlight changed?

I have captured the power of the celestial realm.

I have imbued my mana with the attribute of eternity, according to the unique quality known as perpetuity.

Thus was born moonlight.

When creating this, I desired a power that would circulate like a sword.

“It would be more accurate to say that moonlight is adorned with the power of the celestial realm, like a sword.”

That was my intention.

However, whether this attribute would play along with my intentions is quite a different matter.

Therefore,

I wanted to confirm the power for myself.

I looked to moonlight for an explanation.

“What kind of power do you possess?”

There was a fair amount of anticipation.

“So, what do you want me to experiment with here?”

“It’s a bit challenging to capture spirits in this sunlit field.”

Spirits in a place like this?

It doesn’t seem like the right location.

“Well, the system is known to defy common sense.”

Enhancing through the concept of overlaying on the physical body, infusing arbitrary unique attributes.

As we walked a bit, a chilling energy began to circulate.

“It feels eerie.”

“Yes, because this is a place where the energy of darkness is concentrated.”

Yoo Eun-chae said with tension.

“This place was where a spirit had destroyed a kingdom.”

“Really?”

“Yes, but now the spirit is gone. However, the malicious energy that the spirit possessed contaminated things here.”

No wonder the chill felt serious.

Sigh──.

“So, in this place, there are weak spirits tainted by that energy…”

“Sir, it seems unpleasant.”

“What?”

“Prepare for battle.”

I sense movements.

Resentment of the deceased who loathe the mountain.

“Look ahead.”

“…Surely, you don’t mean for me to fight alone?”

“You need to experience real battles to improve your skills.”

“Well, still, there’s something called mental preparation.”

“Do you think the enemy will always wait patiently for your readiness?”

“Ah.”

Yoo Eun-chae clenched her mouth and lifted her sword.

From the seemingly empty space, she reached in and pulled out a staff.

Placing the sword in front and holding the staff behind. I crossed my arms and evaluated.

“Your stance seems awkward.”

She intends to wield both magic and a sword at the same time.

However, it appears to me that magic is more suitable. The sword doesn’t seem to fit her.

Those who train in martial arts relentlessly work on their fundamentals.

Although geniuses easily surpass those fundamentals.

But Yoo Eun-chae doesn’t seem to be one of those people.

“Hmph.”

Yoo Eun-chae chose her breath.

Her crimson eyes flickered, igniting flames.

Spirits tainted by the malicious energy left behind by the deceased were coming here.

They entered, releasing an ominous power.

“Hoo.”

Yoo Eun-chae stepped forward.

*

Yoo Eun-chae took a deep breath in silence.

“Your unique ability, the power to see the world, is ingrained in you.”

“Your characteristics, like flames embracing a tree, take root in your heart.”

A sense of tranquility settles in.

Flames flicker in Yoo Eun-chae’s eyes.

“A flame that encompasses everything.”

A creative combustion.

And eyes that see the world take hold within oneself.

Looking ahead.

Five demons come into view.

Extraordinary beings.

They despise everything in this world, extinguishing the spirit of justice.

Normally, just the act of seeing them would cause a headache.

“No problem.”

She felt well-prepared.

“Start off lightly.”

This is a moment where they test each other.

Deliberately, Yoo Eun-chae chose a slightly more challenging place.

“That man.”

She recalled her battle with Abel.

That man effortlessly imitated Abel’s bloodline.

Fortunately, if it’s just imitation, but judging by Abel’s reaction, it seems to be more than mere mimicry; it appears to have been created quite similarly.

And there’s something else.

The most basic characteristic: slashing.

That man casually evolved it.

It’s not that there wasn’t anyone who couldn’t evolve it.

The problem arises approximately two years from now.

From Noble mtl dot com

“Since then, things with a high likelihood of evolution will move up the ranks.”

As of now, there are barely two individuals who know this.

However, as soon as that man obtained the slashing ability, he used it.

“I still can’t guess who you are.”

Han Seo-jin, who has taken over Han Seo-jin’s body.

He is not the same as himself. Therefore, he wouldn’t act so defenselessly.

And he’s not a different irregular like Sunwoo Hyun.

However, he is confident that he will become an extraordinary irregular.

Because he knows the original of Wolgong Bingcheon.

“Rather than that damn lunatic.”

He thought about Sunwoo Hyun.

He had to become stronger.

He didn’t want to act like that demon wearing the mask of a human.

He would also save Nam Hye-rin, and others who were exploited by him.

However, he lacked time for himself.

So, he had to become stronger quickly.

“But I wanted to learn from the enigma of Cheongan.”

The mentor known as the chosen one, the psychopath.

And the existence that might be equal to the annihilator called the Demon King’s Assassin.

That man might also be a comparable presence.

Cheongan’s enigma.

The annihilator.

They have many enemies.

They acted on their own, made audacious moves, and destroyed everything that bothered them.

Now, as soon as those who claimed to be his successors appeared in this world, most of them were plagued by inexplicable disappearances.

So, you could say it’s an unexpected stroke of luck.

He quietly opened his eyes.

Hwaryuk.

Flames bloomed. The flames that started from his heart moved to the tip of her sword.

Yoo Eun-chae leaped forward towards the first thing that came running.

“Hup!”

The sword swung.

‘Flames.’

Crimson flames burst out of the sword.

And with that, the demon was cut down.

Swoosh─.

A precise hit.

The core the demon held was precisely severed. And the staff was immediately raised to aim at the demon.

Hyeokjakyeomhwa.

Jeokyeomgu.

Whoosh!

Spheres of flame rose up, totaling three.

Each of them flew toward individual demons.

The demons moved through the air, trying to evade them.

“No chance.”

Kwahng!

As will manifested, the flame spheres burst, engulfing the demons in fire.

That alone won’t kill them, though.

“Trait, Double Bombardment (B), activated.”

Kwaaang!

Within the explosion, the flame sphere triggered another bombardment.

A structure where you’re bound to take hits if caught in the initial assault.

Learning Hyeokjakyeomhwa was, in essence, the most useful skill tree in the early stages.

And finally, only one demon remained.

“Characteristics, Activation of Throw (C).”

Swoosh.

The thrown sword pierced into the core of the evil spirit.

“Hoo.”

Just a moment ago, it was so cool.

With self-praise, Yu Eunchae approached Han Seojin.

“How was it?”

She looked at Han Seojin with a smug expression.

Han Seojin had an indifferent expression.

Did she really think she did well and expected him to praise her?

“It’s plenty.”

“hehehehe, there’s a lot to praise, right?”

“What nonsense. It means there’s a lot to fix.”

“…Huh?”

Yu Eunchae had a bewildered expression.

Although the previous battle wasn’t perfect, it was quite satisfying.

Han Seojin folded one finger and spoke.

“First. You haven’t had much experience handling a sword, have you?”

“For about a month…”

“It shows. Your posture is awkward when wielding it, like with a staff.”

“Once it grows, there won’t be any problem.”

“You’re quite good at throwing swords on that subject.”

“There was no reason to miss the target, right?”

“That’s the problem. What if there was a hidden enemy?”

“….”

“You’re too careless. Just because it’s a dungeon doesn’t guarantee there won’t be other enemies.”

Yoo Eunchae puffed her cheeks.

The dungeon hadn’t reached the hidden place yet.

She tried to say that, but it was also a meaningless excuse.

“Someday, Sunwoo Hyun might send an assassin.”

He probably meant to point out this problem.

“And secondly, it was good to cut the nucleus at first, but did you have to wield the sword?”

“Well, that’s because…”

“You waste too much mana. If it were me, I would have just used magic.”

‘Either you have a lot of mana, or you have excellent control over mana recovery methods.’

Yoo Eunchae couldn’t see that right now.

Han Seojin praised her for thinking that far.

“On the other hand, the magic was quite good. You may not have talent in handling a sword, but you’re not bad at magic.”

“Not bad?”

“Yeah, not bad.”

Especially the double explosion was quite innovative for Han Seo-jin.

“Is it the characteristic that made it possible?”

Or there might be something about its unique trait, but since this one has many hidden secrets, the probability of it not being a unique trait is higher.

“Well, how about showing me how you fight?”

“I’ll show you.”

It’s better to get acquainted with this annihilating weapon if you want to meet the Extermination Master.

“And there’s also the debt of Wolgong.”

Han Seo-jin put his hand in his pocket and walked confidently.

“No, why do you put your hand in your pocket?”

“It’s the walk of a master. Those called masters have a different way of doing things, starting from their posture.”

“That doesn’t really matter… Ah, never mind. Do it your way.”

In response to Yoo Eun-chae’s seemingly resigned words, Han Seo-jin smirked.

Not long after, the evil spirits started approaching.

There were a total of seven gathered.

“What should I do?”

If he uses magic, he can easily eliminate them all at once.

But that is no different from forcing the use of magic.

“Above all, I still have a body that can use the Wolgong Bingcheon.”

The Hyeokjak Yeomhwa is nothing more than a forced technique.

And Yoo Eun-chae will probably say that she can easily handle it by using Wolgong Bingcheon as well.

‘Rather, let’s start with this.’

Let’s try experimenting.

‘Moonlight.’

As I summoned my will, moonlight lingered in my hands.
