Chapter: 123

‘Mother...’

His mother, Lady Hwa, was killed by the same poison and Yeowun couldn’t forget the fact. He had learned from the pain of having his loved one die.

‘How can he be poisoned?’

The symptom seemed to be severe. Lady Hwa had those dots a few months before she died, and Bakgi had the same dots.

‘That only appears after long exposure.’

It was weird for Bakgi to have been exposed to the poison for a long time.

‘Chun Jongsum!’

Yeowun then remembered Jongsum who was smiling at Bakgi. That was why Yeowun had to check Bakgi’s video in the first place. Bakgi was the only one who defeated the prince within the group. It was likely that Chun Jongsum was angry and embarrassed. However, as far as Yeowun knew, one needed to be exposed to the poison through years of dosage.

‘He was either poisoned before he entered the academy, or Chun Jongsum used a heavy dose.’

It was likely that the latter was what was happening. The former was also possible but Chun Yeowun leaned toward the latter.

‘Bastard...’

To Yeowun, poison was frowned upon since it killed his mother. He knew he didn’t have to do anything with the problem between Bakgi and Chun Jongsum, but seeing the same poison being used made him furious.

‘He will try to do the same against others with the poison. I can’t say he’s doing anything wrong in the Demonic Cult Academy, but I can’t let him do that.”

Chun Yeowun then decided to destroy Chun Jongsum’s evil plans.

At the training ground, a duel was going on. One person was a instructor and the other was 5th cadet Chun Yuchan.

‘He’s beyond the level of the other cadets too.’

Instructor Hong Duwi was astonished. The fight was a close match since both of them were at the level of master warriors.

‘I can’t defeat him with the Seven Demon Sword only.’

The Seven Demon Sword was being countered. It wasn’t a perfect counter like what Chun Yeowun did, but it was still being countered.

‘He’s also a genius like those two.’

They didn’t need to duel anymore. Chun Yuchan already had enough power and knowledge regarding the skill. Hong Duwi took a few steps back and raised his hand to stop. Chun Yuchan smiled back.

“This is enough.”

“Meaning?”

“Here’s the tag.”

Hong Duwi then took the tag and gave it to Chun Yuchan.

“Haha! I’m a group leader now!”

“Yes, congratulations. I wish you luck.”

“Thank you, Instructor.”

Chun Yuchan bowed. After he saw Hong Duwi return to the building, he grinned.

“There’s one. Who should I go for next?”
