At the student association hall, towards Exit 1.
Freshmen students and some second and third-year students were doing a personnel check.
Kwak Gyungu was initially in charge of the exit, but he left it to Joo Soohyuk temporarily.
Kwak Gyungu entered the student association hall to take a rest and to watch Bang Yoonseob and Choi Younghee.
The two suffered from the demon and consumed a lot of their energy so they needed a break, and someone had to guard them because they could be influenced by the demon again.
It was Kwak Gyungy who took on that role.
At first, Joo Soohyuk wanted it since he knew both people.
However, Kwak Gyungu opposed this.
— In case, you can clean up the situation alone or drag out time until support comes, Soohyuk-ah. But you don’t have the same recovery skill that I have. And…
Kwak Gyungu hesitated.
He seemed sorry, but he said it because he thought it was necessary.
— Jo Euishin’s Bbang Shuttle exploded when he looked at you. I don’t know if it’s because of the demon, but it’s better to keep your distance for now.
At that, Joo Soohyuk had no choice but to back down.
He recalled the expressions and words said by Bang Yoonseob when he was unable to control his power.
There was a deep feeling of jealousy in his words.
‘Euishin said he served the demon god of jealousy when they were talking.’
Jealousy was an emotion that Joo Soohyuk often encountered in his life.
He was well aware that he grew up in a blessed environment, born with a talent that could be considered the best among his peers, and he was achieving great things using it.
Joo Soohuyk had some understanding of what people around him thought of him.
Feelings like envy, yearning, and affection.
Even if Joo Soohyuk acted modestly, negative emotions persist around him.
That emotion was jealousy, the same that the demon priest was embodying.
‘What should I do?’
Joo Soohyuk thought about the doctrine that Invidius’ priest had spoken of.
‘The shiny ones are turbidly colored, and the ones on the floor are bogged down.’
He remembered how the people who were jealous of him changed.
After some time, a friend with a sunshine-like atmosphere began to look at him with clouded eyes.
A friend who he thought was good tried to push him into the bog.
Just like the doctrine said.
‘Yoonseob-ah…’
The guilt didn’t disappear because he thought that Bang Yoonseob was in that situation because of him.
He hid his mixed emotions.
Then, someone talked to him.
“Hey, you take some rest too.”
It was Maeng Hyodon.
His hardened face loosened a little at Maeng Hyodon’s words.
Joo Soohyuk replied with his usual smile.
“I’m fine. I still have some energy waves left.”
“You arrived earlier than me and you were already fighting when we got here. It’s amazing that you’re still at ease.”
Although Mok Wooram praised him with a pure heart, Joo Soohyuk was nervous for a moment.
He was nervous to say something that could cause bad feelings around him.
Fortunately, the conversation was cut off as students who came to substitute appeared.
“You guys are here. I’m ready for my shift!”
“Are you good now?”
“Yes! Lena and Geurin, do you want to go inside and rest?”
“Yeah… Wooram-ah, uhm, I have something to consult with you about…”
Joo Soohyuk quietly moved back from the Class Zero students who walked with each other.
Pretending to check the number of people, Joo Soohyuk looked around without talking as much as possible.
‘Should I go to Wonwoo hyung once Yoonseob and Younghee are okay?’
Joo Soohyuk has an insight skill which is advantageous in grasping the situation.
However, even though Do Wonwoo knew that, he sent Joo Soohyuk to the front lines instead of the command center.
‘But if I’m active in a crisis like this, then…’
Joo Soohyuk wasn’t afraid of enemies or royal lineage.
He was afraid of allies.
However, it was obvious that things wouldn’t go well if he verbalized such concerns.
While Joo Soohyuk was in a dilemma…
“Hey.”
This time, it was Class 1-1’s vice president, Yoo Sanghoon.
He seemed to be looking for someone since earlier.
“Did you see Jo Euishin?”
“Didn’t Euishin go inside with Professor Gong Cheonghwon?”
Yoo Sanghoon shook his head with a sour face.
“Professor Gong is inside, but Euishin’s not there.”
“Did you ask the professor?”
“He didn’t answer directly.”
Only a few people can beat Gong Cheonghwon with words. Read the most updated version of this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at Novel Multiverse – “NovelMultiverse dot com”
Spiritual Word.
In a double sense, Gong Cheonghwon’s power is with words.
Yoo Sanghoon, being a man of few words, had no chance.
Joo Soohyuk smiled awkwardly.
“Should I look for Euishin?”
“Oh, thanks if you will.”
He wanted to think about something else and he was worried about Jo Euishin too, so Joo Soohyuk activated Seer, his insight skill.
Fwaaa…!
Joo Soohyuk’s wide-open eyes filled with energy waves as information flew into his eyes.
He looked around Exit 1 and then searched the lobby of the student association hall.
He walked through the entire hall, but Jo Euishin was nowhere to be seen.

While Beonmin, the Bear of Anguish, made a suggestion, the bears and the minions under his control stopped all attacks as if they were waiting for Jeokho’s answer.
Jeokho looked at Kim Shinrok, who bowed his head when they made eye contact.
Jeokho’s son seemed not confident in hiding his expression.
Seeing that, Jeokho’s mouth opened automatically.
“It’s none of my business what kind of delusion you are making, but what nonsense are you on about?”
Jeokho spoke as he aimed fiercely with blazing eyes at Beonmin and the other bears.
Red lightning flashed around in anger, but the tiger trap swallowed him and dug into his legs.
Fwaajaak!
Jeokho’s legs lost their shape increasingly, but what he felt more was anger instead of pain.
He shuddered when he remembered that a year ago, his son lost his leg in the hands of the Bear Clan.
Jeokho cried out as he quenched his boiling anger.
“I believed in love and moved according to it, not for the Bear Clan. That love and faith have abandoned me, and I can’t take it back. All I have left is my son and my friends!”
Beonmin lowered his weapon and looked at Jeokho as if he couldn’t understand.
“Ungnyeo abandoned you? What are you saying? There’s no way. No, if that’s what you think, Jeokho, then…”
Beonmin murmured as if he were reasoning something out.
Of course, not having any intention of listening to the crazy bear’s nonsense, Jeokho cut him off.
“The power of Pungbaek and Usa is in that disgusting snow. What have you done to my friends? Where are they!”
“I thought you would lose your fighting spirit once you knew that Pungbaek and Usa’s powers are in the snow, but hmm… Is it because your son is still alive?”
Jeokho not responding to his bait made Beonmin click his tongue.
At least he wanted Jeokho to contemplate, but things didn’t go his way.
He sighed at the unexpected scenario.
Beonmin stopped thinking for now and decided to seduce Jeokho once more.
“You might’ve had a way to know if you made the right choice. But there’s no room for negotiation now…”
“You must be completely out of your mind if you think I’d negotiate with a bear bastard.”
Beonmin’s attempt didn’t work again.
The conversation wasn’t possible since Jeokho’s anger was rising.
No matter what he tried to say, he couldn’t beat Jeokho’s mouth.
The bear judged that it was impossible to negotiate with Jeokho.
Though Jeokho’s body was still tied to the tiger trap and his son is left defenseless in front of the Bear Clan.
Beonmin, the Bear of Anguish, looked down on Jeokho.
It seemed funny that one of the best warriors of the Tiger Clan, who was once paired with the Bear Clan, was swearing with anger.
‘Ungnyeo doesn’t have great eyes either. To think that she chose such a fool…’
Beonmin narrowed his eyes and ended his thoughts.
He began to gather energy waves in his weapon, preparing to take Jeokho’s life.
As if he were being kind for the last time, Beonmin spoke to mock Jeokho.
“I think you’re curious about your friends, so I’ll let you know.”
Jeokho didn’t shake even though he knew that Pungbaek and Usa were related to the snow.
That news alone won’t leave regrets on Jeokho.
The Bear of Anguish was hoping that Jeokho would be troubled until his last breath.
“Unsa will follow you soon. You can introduce your son then.”
At Beonmin’s signal, the other bears began to gather energy waves in unison.
From his weapon, a wastewater-colored energy wave rose and aimed at Jeokho.
Beonmin smiled and looked at Jeokho’s face.
However, when he saw his face, Beonmin spoke before he knew it.
“…Why are you smiling?”
“Hah, the bears’ mouths became infinitely lighter in front of their prey. It’s the same as before. You were so foolish that you couldn’t take over the Korean Peninsula even after setting a sneaky plan of betrayal.”
Jeokho, who was supposed to be facing death, spoke as if he was winning.
Beonmin had no idea what was happening and why Jeokho was so relaxed.
Swaaa…
Wind suddenly began to blow from somewhere.
The wind, loaded with particles of light, was wrapped with energy waves.
“You use the same strategies over again. How can you do the same foolish thing against my child!”
Kwaaaa!
When Jeokho’s roar resonated, the wind began to blow so hard that it was difficult to keep their eyes open.
In the face of the strong wind, the energy waves of the bears stumbled and they were pushed back.
Through the pouring wind, a white tiger flew in with a great sword.
“Cheonshin, Heavenly God.”
A low voice reverberated.
As the words began, a brilliant light flowed on Baekho’s forehead.
“Please grant me permission
