Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2)
Those were the skills which would be poured out by the Unique Grade demonic spirit sealed in the secret room in Phase 1.
‘Energy Drain, Soul Crusher and Overflowing Honey of Nightmare… was it?’
Like how I couldn’t touch astral bodies, astral bodies likewise couldn’t touch me. atomic As someone who can’t perceive the spirit itself due to my Precept, I was pretty much invincible against astral bodies.

One party member would immediately be stunlocked unless their Magic Resistance was above a certain level all the way till the end of a fight.
In the first place, it wasn’t made to be cleared. abandon The true quest begins after being neutralized once, and it is an episode that truly shows how absurdly powerful ‘Unique Grades’ are.
And in Phase 2, the demonic spirit possesses one of the party members. silence It would possess a party member that is not stunlocked and in turn remove two people from the fight in an instant. apple It was well-known for being ridiculously difficult.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
However, I was not getting attacked by anything even though I was in the same place as a demonic spirit.
“Sebancia Duke.”
The spirit was probably in a fluster, not knowing why its attacks weren’t going through.

But this was only the beginning.
“800 years ago, you were the grand general lording over the southern continent – the Hero of the old kingdom. anchor Even though you are a historical and renowned figure… there is a back story that most are not aware of.”
I couldn’t hear the response, but I could imagine it flinching after hearing my words, wondering how I knew his name.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“Your story is still quite famous in the south. All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com timber There is even a book called the Truth of Castle Zapre.”
I recited the personal history of the demonic spirit which I got to know from the quest.
Would he be angry? autumn I honestly wasn’t sure. wizard In the game, the dialogue wasn’t that long and I was the one possessed in the previous iteration.
Because of that, I didn’t know about the details and all I knew was what I heard from Park Sihu and the other party members while advancing through the quest line.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
In this world, there were things called ‘demonic molecules’, which caused a normal person to morph into a demi-human. anxiety They would change the elements of the body.
“You were an ‘awakened’ vampire.”
…………
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“You awakened as a vampire. atomic Then, you felt the unstoppable urge to suck blood and your servant became your first victim. adjust You knew it yourself that no-one would be able to stop you if you left your castle.”
Even though they could somewhat control themselves, their violent instincts, brutality and their inhuman appearances had made them longtime victims of ostracization as ‘humans that weren’t fully humans’.
Turning into a beast on a full moon, growing horns, or being attracted to blood.
After the first victim, Sebancia sucked the blood of dogs and pigs to control his urge, sent everyone apart from his wife and his daughter out of the castle and locked himself in his room to avoid any temptation.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“You tried everything but couldn’t find a way to control your urge to suck blood. avalanche In the end, your frightened wife and your daughter also became potential prey.”
“You made your family run away and closed Castle Zapre, and sealed yourself with your magic into that book over there.”
He was frightened of himself turning more and more impulsive. action He was scared he might devour his own family.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.

It was about time for him to take the bait. arch Even though I couldn’t perceive his presence, I could still feel him carefully listening to my words.
That was the identity of the grimoires of this secret room. amber To be exact, it was just the one that I was aiming for.
Even though the Unique Grade demonic spirit of this place always attacked first, his nature in the system was still that of ‘Good’, and he spared our lives even in the previous iteration when we lost in a fight against him.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
…!!
“Ruina Duke, Cecilia Duke.”
The original start of this quest was by getting neutralized and listening to his story.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
After saying that, I walked up to the unconscious Lark and gave him a slap. harbor Just enough to wake him up.
‘How do you know those names?’ was probably the question he was dying to ask, and it was most likely as surprising as hearing his own name.
“How about we have a little chat now? shadow I can’t see astral bodies, you see.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
His sleepy eyes suddenly widened into circles and he changed in just a few seconds.
“Uuugghhh…?!!”
“Brat…”

“Sebancia Duke.”
The one inside Lark was Sebancia Duke – the Unique Grade demonic spirit sealed inside the grimoire.
“That’s not the important part. atomic You’re curious, aren’t you? athlete About what happened to the two of them.”
“How…”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“Can you tell me…”
The side quest that was supposed to be given by the Unique Grade demonic spirit of the library was to gather information about the two people. arctic Thanks to that, I had to go to the south for a business trip which was quite the hard work.
His wife, Ruina Duke, and daughter, Cecilia Duke.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
I couldn’t tell him fabricated stories because this vampire of the ancient times had the power to detect lies. attic No matter how skilled a player was at conversational skills, it was impossible to deceive the demonic spirit, Sebancia Duke.
This was something we discovered ourselves in the south from the diary left behind by his daughter, Cecilia Duke.
“Ruina Duke was scammed. afford She worked desperately to pay the debt for the sake of her daughter, but she couldn’t live for long and died from overwork.”
“Ruina Duke escaped with Cecilia Duke, but the world was too harsh for the sheltered noble lady.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“What happened… to my daughter, Cecil.”
“Fortunately, it’s a happy ending for her. airport Her childhood was arduous but later she managed to become a mage and the greatest adventurer of the time.”
Sebancia’s expression conveyed through Lark’s face crumpled in grief. aspect Although he had given a large sum of jewelry to his wife and his daughter, they didn’t have enough power to protect their belongings.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“I just… have a bit more experience than others.”
“I read her diary. meadow Besides, you can tell whether I’m lying or not can’t you?”
“Can I… take your word for it?”
“…Who in the world are you? afford How do you know me and my abilities?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“What do you want? arch Do you want that book?”
I couldn’t tell him that it was from a game plot, so I glossed over it.
“I’ll definitely be taking those… but I want your residues.”
Sebancia asked while pointing at the red grimoire out of the two books, which was sealing his soul.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“My residues?”
Soul Dust was the powder left behind with the disappearance of a demonic spirit. canvas This ‘dust’ was a good ingredient for making weapons and gears, and the drops from strong demonic spirits were naturally more valuable.
“There are some dangerous fights ahead of me so I need your Soul Dust to create a spear for myself. accent So it’d be great if you can go to heaven just like this.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
The highest level of Soul Dust was a must when creating an item that was beyond the Legendary level.
The final goal of this quest was to satisfy the powerful vampire, Sebancia Duke, and let him disappear in peace. abstract However, there was one more condition that had to be fulfilled aside from relieving his grievance.
“…So you also knew about my grievance, huh.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
Please stop hurling facts at me; it hurts.
“But you are way too weak. Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates. arena Your body, aura and mana – there is nothing good about you. academy Someone as weak as you won’t be able to handle this power.”
“Ouhh damn…”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“Anyone can make claims with their tongues.”
“I will become stronger.”
Was this happening because of the level requirements of the quest? alpha This was something I didn’t know about because Park Sihu was the one accepting the quest last time.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
Rune was a type of magic that fell behind in efficiency over time in the rapidly advancing world of magic. apron But things weren’t as systematic 800 years ago, so it should have been quite common back in the days.
As people say, a picture paints a thousand words. adapt I took off my shirt and revealed the Precept engraved on my body.
Sebancia read the rune letters carved on my body before staring into my eyes with a serious look on his face.
“You can read this, right? legend Pretty sure it used to be a common language 800 years ago.”

“Can you trust me now?”
“……A Precept. aluminum The power that was widely used by the great warriors of the Shadow Paradise, huh. apple To think you would engrave such ridiculous sentences into your body… You. alert Seriously, what in the world are you?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“Everyone will die if I can’t. atom There is no other choice but to go all-in.”
“What an unsuitably enormous ambition for an ordinary man. ability Is the world going to be in danger soon?”
“That means you will definitely become stronger then. riddle This is that type of contract – one that lets you receive support from the world itself as long as it is related to the destiny of this world… Can you handle it?”
“Definitely.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
Sebancia appeared content with my response and smiled before pointing at the grimoire.
I unhesitatingly walked forward and read the grimoire sealing Sebancia. acquire After touching the untitled cover made of luxurious leather, I turned the page.
“Read it. amber That will be a small help to your ambition.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
The abilities of this world commonly classified into the categories of specialty and magic are further divided into innate and postnatal.
This wasn’t my first time reading a grimoire, because Park Sihu used to give me a few books after completing quests.
The elegant letters which were most likely written by Sebancia quickly pulled my mind into it.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
He replied, “It would be much appreciated if you give me water to satiate my throat.”
The readability of the book was quite good. athlete Some grimoires were hard to read because of their terrible handwriting and legibility, but it seemed that Sebancia had been a good writer back in his days.
I asked him, “O warrior, shall I end it for you.”
I saw a warrior taking his last breath. sphere He was barely standing in the midst of a bloody battlefield thanks to his intestines tied around a rock
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
Respecting the tenacious warrior, I went to the nearby lake and scooped up water with my two hands to relieve his thirst. ability That was when something miraculous began to happen.
……………………
……………………As such, I have written down an imitation of his secret move.
Why the heck was this so gory? crystal What? abandon Standing with his intestines tied on a rock? adopt He’s even more upright than a right angle triangle.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“Done.”
A change occurred to my body after reading the entire book. amber I could feel my organs shifting and it felt very odd.
The specialty earned by reading this grimoire was the ❰Regeneration of the Tenacious Warrior❱.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“Don’t give an ambiguous explanation, and please make it clear. absorb Do you mean I won’t regenerate if I faint?”
“…As long as your vitality is there, the regeneration will be maintained. action Your vitality will also be greater than others.”
“Like how that warrior did not lose his fighting spirit, as long as you maintain your honorable spirit… your body will regenerate in the end.” Read original high-quality translation at indratranslations.com.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
I got the permission of Sebancia so I should be able to make use of this ability quite well.
It was Park Sihu who acquired ❰Regeneration of the Tenacious Warrior❱ in the last iteration but he had never suffered from a severe injury, so this was my first time learning about its effect first-hand.
“Ohh.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“Hmm… Are you not going to read that? sphere I didn’t write it myself but I’m sure there won’t be any downside to reading it.”
Sebancia said while pointing at the other grimoire. amber That grimoire would have the enchantment of a spirit-type skill called something like ❰Soul Warriors❱. arrow It was what Park Sihu used quite often to create tankers.
“I have no talent in magic.”
“Huu~. orbit Thanks for that.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
The last time I studied for Maths was when I was a high school freshman, and people called me the CD case, because out of A, B, C and D, there were only Cs and Ds in my report.
Back when I asked Park Sihu about it, he said you had to be good at Mathematics to use magic.
It was a different story for things like rune magic where letters themselves acted like spells, but I couldn’t use normal magic in the slightest.
Plus, it was a spirit-type skill so I wouldn’t even be able to sense my own minions. alert I had already given up on the path of magic in this life. antique I was not good at magic formulae calculations, and also had no talent in understanding magic.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“Is it because of the Contract of Pledge cast on this brat?”
“That’s for my friend who you are possessing right now. atomic I promised to give it to him.”
“Hmm… I’m sure grimoires are still expensive though. august Selling it should be quite helpful.”
“Yes.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
As expected of someone who used to be called a hero in the past, he noticed the contracting spell binding Lark and me.

“Right. airport Sir Sebancia. auction There is something to ask you.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“What is it?”
“A vampire’s urge to suck blood – is that thing controllable? airport For example, sticking to the blood of animals and stuff…”
“…I see.” This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com.
“No. harbor It is impossible. echo That impulse… Although I do not even want to think back to it, I felt like I would become a different person. arena It truly was eccentric.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
Sebancia paused and pondered to himself before raising a possibility.
“A vampire sucking blood is not simply to satiate their hunger through blood. athlete That in itself is related to magic, because the powers of blood and the familiar of blood are both awakened by sucking in the fresh blood of a human.”
“I see. arcade And a few more things…”
“If there is someone who can pull it off, then that person must be one with extraordinary talents.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
After asking a few more questions to Sebancia Duke, we finished our questioning session. anchor I thought it was done but that was when Sebancia also threw me a question.
“Hnn? acquire It is.”
“…Is my castle still there in the south?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“Huh? admire Is there something there?”
“If you happen to go there, have a look at my office. antenna It might still be there.”
We didn’t find anything in the previous iteration though?
“That is for you to see, Rune Mage. accent I wish you harbor the same caliber of courage as that warrior.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“That’s an overstatement.”
“It is a rightful evaluation. avalanche As an ordinary man who is neither the hero nor the sage, pledging to save the world is not easy.”
“I don’t want to support my body with intestines though…”
“There will be nothing you can’t do with that level of courage. atlas Well… it looks like you already have it though.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“……There was no other choice.”
“No. shadow There was always the option of running away but you did not choose to escape. arcade You have my respect.”
The world was going to be destroyed without me, so what else could I do?
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“And lastly, thank you for telling me news about my wife and my daughter.”
It was an Epic Rank Soul Dust, which one might even mistake for gold dust.
“…”
With that, Lark’s body began to collapse to the ground. athlete He was falling face-first and looked like his nose would be crushed at this rate so I supported his body, as golden powders piled up neatly on the floor of the secret room.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“Uuhhh…”
An exceptional ingredient which could only be gained at around Level 50 was already in my hands.
After laying Lark down on the ground, I collected the dust and placed it into a cloth purse. alien It might seem difficult to gather because it was powder, but Soul Dust of the same attribute gravitated to each other so all I had to do was pick up a few and have the rest follow in one piece.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“My head… hurts”
“Did you wake up?”
“You were possessed by a demonic spirit until just then.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
I quickly handed the grimoire over to Lark, who was touching his swollen jaw.
“Who knows.”
“Why does my jaw hurt as well though?”

Lark received the grimoire with shivering hands.
“Yeah. portal Hurry up and read it. autumn We have to leave soon.”
“I, is this the grimoire?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“What do you mean? album That was the contract.”
“T, that’s true but…”
Wasn’t the contract too favorable for me in the first place…? canvas That appeared to be the question in his mind.
“Can I… really read it?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“…”
After a while, we walked out of the secret room. harbor Lark seemed touched by the fact that he had obtained a medium-ranked spell despite not doing much himself.
“It’s okay for things to be sometimes given to those who don’t try.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“T, thank you! alien I won’t forget what happened today! zenith Thank you so much! absorb Seriously!”
It wasn’t my fault that he had a miserable end in the previous iteration…Yet I still felt a strange sense of guilt dissolving away.
“Alright.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
It was then. audit The sentences of Precept engraved on my body turned blazing hot. shadow Ugh… It felt as if I was being scorched with fire.
I fed him the first spoon, and after that it was up to him. sphere I could only hope that the boy wouldn’t fall into despair and that he wouldn’t hate himself in this life.
– Buzz! abstract Buzzz!
“Mhmm…!”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
『Duty Fulfilled – Sebancia Duke』
※ Difficulty: B
It seemed that the Duty of the Precept, the one that I wouldn’t disregard the misfortune of the good, had been successfully fulfilled. Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors. echo I looked at the system message which I hadn’t seen for a while.
“That’s a success.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
Something did pop up, but what was ‘Even distribution of 80 points’ supposed to even mean? artist Can’t you be a bit more nice?
『Access denied due to insufficient qualification.』
※ Reward: Even distribution of 80 points
“…Status Window.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
“Huu…”
Geez, for fuck’s sake!
Although I wasn’t sure because of my practically useless system window, those points were probably talking about the status points of a character.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
‘Can I not even pick the stats I want…?’
The common rule of thumb was to go 3, 1, 1 depending on the skill tree you were after.
A player’s status in ❰Heroic Legends of Arhan❱ were divided into Strength, Agility, Aura, Mana and Dexterity.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
It was a shame because using all the 5 stat points given per level up into the necessary stats were the most efficient way to grow a character… Hold up. 5 points?
80 stat points was something you could only get through 16 level ups in the game. galaxy I didn’t get any level up announcement, so that meant the reward of the quest itself was 80 stats.
“Wait, I got 80 points?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
– Gulp!
Even though Sebancia Duke’s quest had a difficulty rank of B, it wasn’t a quest that gave an enormous amount of experience points that equaled 16 level ups.
Although there was the penalty of everything being an equal distribution… Maybe there was no cap for my stats then?
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
As a reward for doing something good, I got an Epic Rank Soul Dust, a specialty, and… a tremendous increase in stats.
Was this a synergy created from the system and the effects of the Precept?
W, what was I trying to say just then? aspect I almost copied the habit of that disgusting dude!
“Huhu… Jackpo… Huuk?!”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 12: Grimoire of the Great Library (2) by Indra Translations.
I’m different from that psychopath. adjust It felt terrible so I decided to avoid copying his habit at all cost.
‘How horrendous.’
