Chapter 91. Humanity’s First Discovery Was the Apple (3)
“Your Highness, are you alright?!”
“Yes, I’m fine, but….”
The 2nd Prince glared at Ruin as if asking what the hell he was doing.
“Are you Professor Ruins Wayne?”
His killing intent was fierce. He already harbored ill feelings toward Ruins for stealing away the Princess. His red eyes, visible between his black hair, flashed piercingly.
“What is the meaning of this?”
In contrast, Ruin smiled coldly as he approached the Prince.
“I’m terribly sorry about this. I never thought a Prophet wouldn’t be able to dodge something like this.”
“…!”
At those words, the 2nd Prince’s displeased expression changed dramatically. It was the look of someone who had something to hide.
But Ruin played innocent and spoke politely.
“Actually, I was checking prophecy abilities for ‘personal reasons.’ I thought Your Highness would naturally be able to read the future, but I suppose I overestimated you.”
The students were horrified.
Personal reasons? Graduate school? Is it really for graduate school?!
However, the 2nd Prince’s eyes were trembling slightly.
Ruin casually approached the Prince and whispered secretly to him. His smirking lips were a bonus.
“You don’t need to be so frightened. I’ll be sure to keep Your Highness’s ‘secret.'”
“…!”
The 2nd Prince looked at Ruin with shaking eyes.
A secret?
* * *
After the apple terror ended.
Ruin visited the Chairman’s Office.
“I found Charlie and the culprit, so please grant what I want.”
“It’s quite an honor that Professor Wayne came to visit the Chairman’s Office personally… but you caught the culprit?”
“Yes.”
“Are you perhaps here to turn yourself in?”
As if that would happen.
“The culprit is a student. But I’ll educate them, so leave them be.”
“Even though a student has gone missing?”
“I have an idea about that too. Don’t worry.”
At those words, the Hero who had been sighing clasped his hands together.
“Fine. Let’s hear what you want.”
A strange silence flowed.
What was he trying to demand, that Ruins Wayne? The manifestation conditions of the Wish Stone? Or Haven’s secrets? Control? Or perhaps the purge of a specific person?
‘Right. Is he finally showing his true colors?’
However, the response was unexpected.
“Give me the Red Moon Dormitory Supervisor position.”
“!”
At that moment, the Hero’s eyebrows twitched, and the Principal, who was there for the student search, opened his mouth in surprise for a different reason.
It was unexpected. After causing such a big commotion, just a dormitory supervisor position.
“Are you… sure about that? It’s not any other special privilege. I could give you more powerful authority.”
“Supervisor is sufficient.”
Rather, at Ruin’s unwavering words, the Principal smiled as if seeing him in a new light.
‘To be so modest and incorruptible…!’
Should she call it lack of greed, or firm conviction? Anyone else would have demanded power or requested something difficult to grant. Charlotte’s gaze couldn’t leave Ruin.
But there was a problem. While she was fine with him wanting to be supervisor, there was someone who would hate it to death.
Sure enough, as expected, the Hero beside her became sullen.
“Supervisor won’t do.”
“Didn’t you say you’d grant anything?”
“If you take on supervisor duties too, won’t you become busier? Then you can’t come with me to catch Fire Butterfly.”
That’s exactly why I’m asking for it, you idiot. Of course, becoming supervisor would also bring in special allowances, so it’s good for him too.
Then, the Hero pressed his brow as if truly troubled.
“Your lack of greed makes this more difficult. It would have been simple if you’d demanded money or honor. Asking for a supervisor position means telling me to fire one of the current supervisors.”
“If that’s the case, Charlie Whiskey has expressed his intention to resign. So that position-”
“It’s too early to remove Professor Charlie from that position.”
“Why?”
“Intuition.”
The Hero’s eyes sharpened as he said this.
“I have a feeling Fire Butterfly would like it.”
“….”
Ruin looked at him with displeasure.
Was that bastard still suspicious?
But well, he was right. If he became the Red Moon dormitory supervisor, he could obtain the artifacts hidden in Red Moon. He could also get closer to Duke Isles.
The Hero smiled brightly.
“But the supervisor positions excluding Red Moon seem fine. Like Gold Moon.”
“Are you telling me to get killed by the Grand Duke?”
Was he found out?
The Hero grinned and shrugged his shoulders.
“Actually, there’s intelligence that one of the supervisors is in contact with an external terrorist organization.”
Ruin’s pupils trembled slightly.
-Intelligence has been obtained that a Haven supervisor made contact with the terrorist ‘Hades’. Identify the individual in question.
Was this bastard also detecting that?
Ruin stiffened for a moment.
Because he remembered what Sansa had said.
“…Actually, the real reason for targeting Haven is because of Fire Butterfly… you.”
“…Because Fire Butterfly’s military funds are hidden in Haven.”
“Since the Hero doesn’t know about the military funds yet, if we destroy Haven, we can take them…”
‘Could he be targeting Haven? To get my military funds?’
The Hero rested his chin on his hand and slowly added.
“I need to know who it is to fire them, but unfortunately my luck power doesn’t work here. I wonder why.”
Why wasn’t his luck power working?
The answer was simple.
The Hero wanted to catch Fire Butterfly. And Toad, the terrorist Hades, was targeting Fire Butterfly’s military funds.
In other words, if the Hero just stayed still, Fire Butterfly would eventually move directly. As a result, staying still was the method with the highest probability of catching Fire Butterfly.
However, regardless of who died in the process, luck power didn’t care. Ruin found such luck not just disgusting but abhorrent.
“So you’re saying to find out which supervisor is working with terrorists. And then you’ll vacate that position.”
“That’s right. Though it would be difficult. So why don’t you track Fire Butterfly with me instead?”
At those words, Fire Butterfly’s eyes changed to a light of destruction.
Difficult?
‘It’s very easy though.’
* * *
The supervisors were trembling in fear.
‘Surely it won’t appear again today.’
They couldn’t sleep at all. It was because of the ghost appearing in the supervisor’s room.
The supervisors took turns doing night duty in the dormitory supervisor’s room, and the ghost that started appearing recently was the problem.
Of course, there’s no way ghosts exist in the world. But the problem was that something more vicious than a real ghost appeared in the supervisor’s room.
And today’s duty.
Gulp.
Silver Moon’s supervisor, Cruna, swallowed his saliva.
Whooooo- The sound of wind came frighteningly. Then with the sound of tree branches tapping the window, that thing…!
Clatter!
“!”
The lights flickered, and at the sound of objects shaking, Cruna had a fit. And the moment he turned his head-
“Kyaaaah!”
Blood dripped from the ceiling, and the sound of fingernails scratching the wall could be heard.
Words like ‘save me, save me’ were written in blood on the wall. On top of that, objects floated and flew around.
Cruna tried to go toward the door, but the door wouldn’t open.
“Damn it, again!”
So he tried to go out through the window, but…
“Uaaaah!”
Cruna screamed when he saw the window. Ghosts that looked like Union Forces were swarming like zombies, pounding on the window.
“As expected, it’s not an illusion!”
The supervisors felt like they were going to have a neurosis.
When they were in the supervisor’s room, when they patrolled the dormitory, this always happened when they were just in the dormitory. It even happened in the bathroom. Even when they tried to sleep at night, they were tormented until morning and couldn’t sleep.
The bigger problem was that this only happened to the supervisors. When they called other people, everything was normal as if nothing had happened. The nail marks and blood writing all disappeared. Thanks to that, only the supervisors were treated as crazy.
At first they thought it was the students’ prank, but attacks and defenses didn’t work. Like a real ghost!
As such things happened, all kinds of stress, sleep deprivation, and neurosis were basic. Fighting with something of unknown identity, they hadn’t slept at all for 6 days already.
In the end, Cruna had only one choice.
“I’m quitting being a supervisor!”
Watching Cruna leave while wailing, Ruin, who was hiding, looked at his watch.
“It took 145 hours and 43 minutes. Silver Moon was the first to give up.”
The Shadow King transformed into a ghost and gathered the shadows that were waiting around, giving them commands.
“Right. Well done. Next it’s the turn of the Red Moon, Blue Moon, Gold Gate, and Black Moon dormitory supervisors. With this, we can find the vicious terrorist.”
「Terrorist my ass. You’re just trying to kick out all the dormitory supervisors.」
No. I’m finding the terrorist fair and square, you know?
* * *
A strange scene was unfolding. The students also whispered among themselves as they watched the scene before their eyes.
So, Ruins Wayne was walking through Haven’s corridor. And behind him…
Trudge trudge trudge trudge.
“That’s His Highness the 2nd Prince Ryle, right?”
“What is that cold-blooded one doing…?”
The 2nd Prince was following him around.
The students found him strange. And for good reason, considering what kind of existence the 2nd Prince was.
Unlike the sociable and popular 1st Prince, or the somewhat arrogant but loyal Imperial Princess, the 2nd Prince was supremely self-centered. He was taciturn but had the manners of a cold-blooded bastard who ate rudeness for breakfast. There were more than a few who had approached him based on his looks alone, only to have their uniforms slashed and flee naked.
He was a prince whose swordsmanship ability was so genius-level that he would follow in the Hero’s footsteps, so no one could say anything about him.
“…Shouldn’t we inform Her Highness the Imperial Princess about this?”
“Didn’t he say he was going to train a Prophet? Not long ago, he was targeting her with apples too. There were widespread rumors about making her his assistant.”
“Then could it be His Highness the 2nd Prince?”
“Her Highness the Imperial Princess would go crazy, wouldn’t she?”
Around that time, Ruin sighed and stopped.
“I don’t have a hobby of being stalked by men?”
Flinch.
At this, Ryle stopped walking and pondered. Then he said.
“I have something to consult with you about for a moment, teacher.”
The eavesdropping Gold Gate students turned pale as sheets.
A consultation?
‘Don’t tell me that guy is also interested in Ruins like the Princess?!’
‘Is he going to ask for private tutoring?’
But Ruins was the one who had told even Her Highness the Imperial Princess to come for consultation only after half a year. He wouldn’t be so accommodating to that bastard…
“Fine. Please come in.”
Gold Gate screamed.
“Your Highness the Imperial Princess!”
“This is terrible! That bastard Ruins is going to take on private tutoring for another guy!”
…Those bastards?
Ruin looked disdainfully at Gold Gate as they screamed and disappeared, then brought Ryle into the Senior Professor’s Office.
As soon as the door closed, Ryle glared at Ruins.
‘He’s being cautious.’
There was no way Fire Butterfly wouldn’t sense the youngster’s killing intent. Ryle was truly ready to kill depending on how Ruin answered.
However, before that, he was feeling perplexed.
‘What? He’ll keep my ‘secret’ hidden.’
What did he mean by that?
‘Don’t tell me.’
At his rapidly chilling gaze, Ruin smiled.
“Why are you like that? Is it strange that I noticed Your Highness’s secret?”
