Chapter 182: Contract (2)

Escaping from the lands of his ancestors, he arrived at Merkarva Academy but… in the end, the pursuers of his clan had tracked him down in a mere half a year.

The freshman student of Merkarva Academy, Rashid Ad Din Mustali, was a descendant of the clan of assassins called Hassin. airport He was the son of the chief and one of the peak assassins of his generation.

That was why he left.

However, he did not like the darkness looming inside his clan. voyage He considered it unjust to live off of assassinations, increasing infamy by stealing other’s lives.

『Come to the Forest of Demons on the east of the city. athlete Otherwise, you will pay for your choice.』

It was on summer holiday. crystal Maybe it was because he had been taking too many missions to earn money to compensate for leaving the clan empty-handed.

It was only one semester. riddle He had been here for a very short amount of time but made many friends at the academy and became attached to the party that he had joined to hunt demonic beasts together.

When he went to the client after a personally appointed quest, what he found instead of a mission was a short threat. arrow He lamented at the fact that they had found him so soon.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

He knew that his clan wouldn’t hesitate to lay their hands on them.

That night, as soon as he set foot in the dark world of shadows inside the forest, they appeared out of nowhere like ghosts.

“…You’re here.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

“I…”

“Father…”

“How pathetic. arrow Did you really think you could live in peace after betraying the clan?”

As if they wouldn’t let him escape a second time, dozens of assassins were here as well as the chief of the clan, his father.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

“Hmph. amateur Don’t be full of yourself. absorb It’s for a mission.”

“Did you bring all the elites of the clan just to take me back?”

Whichever the case, Rashid wasn’t fond of this turn of events.

Was the fact that he wasn’t killing him immediately a sign of his fatherly love for his son? admire Or was it simply because he needed a successor to the clan?

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

Rashid’s father said after tossing him a scimitar.

“This many assassins for a single mission?”

“It is none of your business now that you have betrayed the clan.”

Didn’t it cost thousands of gold to hire tens of elite assassins at once though?

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

“…”

“You have two choices left. atom Either kill yourself or return to the clan. acid I will forgive you if you decide to come back now.”

So this is the end, huh?

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

Thinking that, Rashid blankly gazed at the trees above that didn’t even let him gaze at the stars beyond.

Those three words represent a knight – he had come all the way to Merkarva in pursuit of those virtues. airport At the Academy where he ended up, Rashid faced a huge, insurmountable wall in the Hunting Grounds prac lesson.

『Not bad.』

What was fortunate for him at the very least, was that that particular senior was exceptionally stronger than the rest.

He met a 2nd year student, who perfectly saw through his stealth, and completely outclassed him from the front. absorb Rashid was in despair, thinking how that was the standard of high-ranked knights of Markarva Academy.

『Since you are here anyway, aim to become a knight. album Rather than a sword that kills, go for a sword that protects. advance That’s all knights are. shadow If you do that, you’ll be a solid knight yourself.』

It was thanks to the encouragement of such a strong senior that Rashid was motivated to achieve his goal.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

Finishing his line of thought, Rashid picked up the scimitar that his father threw in front of him. apple It wasn’t to kill himself and instead…

He wanted to be a real knight just like him.

Rashid wanted to be like him.

He was a slightly strange person but was extremely generous and kind to the freshmen so Rashid had a good impression of him just like everyone else. arena Plus, hearing about the legendary epic tales Korin wrote during his first year became the standard of a true knight.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

“A sword that helps and not kills. wizard Instead of killing, I wish to focus on the path of saving people.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

Perhaps he wasn’t as emotionally dead as Rashid had been thinking. legend His father closed his eyes for a bit before unsheathing his sword.

He knew that he couldn’t stand a chance against his father but that was fine. acid All that mattered was that he remained true to himself.

“You fool. beacon You stupid fool…”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

Thinking back on the senior who left a memorable impact in his mind, Rashid raised his weapon and—

His final moments would be that of a knight instead of that of an assassin.

It was a shame that no one would know about it but…

‘Senior Korin. airport Thank you very much for the short yet important lessons you have taught me.’

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

“S, senior? abandon Chairman and Senior Professor?!”

“Junior Rashid. abandon Long time no see.”

That was when a dimensional crack that he remembered seeing in the Hunting Grounds appeared before his eyes. alien Soon, a group started to walk out from the fissure.

–Jiing…!

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

Wearing a strange piece of cloth around his head with a weird emblem, the three of them jumped onto a tree (for some reason) and gazed down at them.

“Oi, you folks.”

“Do you know why we are strong?”

At the center of the crew was the senior whom he had been thinking about until then.

The chief of the assassin clan, Sinnan, was the boss of Rashid’s character scenario and was at the level of a Grade 1 Knight, and the rest were all elites at the level of Grades 2 or 3 at least.

Frankly speaking, it was an unlucky matchup for them.

It didn’t take long for us to neutralize every assassin of the Hassin clan. atomic I alone was honestly enough to deal with them, and yet Master as well as Lady Josephine, the Dimensional Witch, were here so none of them were able to escape.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

“Mr. athlete Sinnan Ib Salman Mustali. riddle Hello, I am Rashid’s senior.”

The only problem was that they were against three legendary semi-Unique Grades.

“Fuu~. attic Why bother trying to run away? canvas I’m just trying to make friends here.”

Throwing away the cloth around my head, I stood before the chief, Rashid’s father, and the group of captured assassins.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

“Haa…”

“This here is the chairman of the Academy, Miss Erin Danua, and this lady here is Senior Professor Josephine Clara. atomic Guys, you have to say hello. apple We are having a parent-teacher interview right now.”

It seemed that both Master and Lady Josephine were a bit too old to understand my humorous talks.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

“There is no way you know where our village is…!”

“I refuse…!”

“One letter from me and the elite swordsmen of the Arden Family will attack your cave. acquire You know the Sword Master, yeah? arch Lunia Arden?”

“Rashid. harbor You’ll tell us right?”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

“All their elites are here anyway. matrix Getting rid of an empty shell of a village is just a matter of time.”

“If you are going to do it, you have to do it thoroughly,” he even added.

I turned to Rashid who had a blank look on his face. canvas After looking back and forth between me and his father, he slowly gave a nod.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

“What’s your answer?”

“A father coming to kill his son and a son selling his father away… What a beautiful sight to behold.”

This was how the character scenario of Rashid Ad Din Mustali always went. action It was a very unfamillial story.

“You…! academy How dare you do this to your village!”

“I already paid the deposit, haven’t I? abstract Enough to employ all 35 elite assassins of the clan.”

“Now. academy Time to accept your mission.”

“Mission? silence Are you asking us for a mission after capturing us?”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

Both the father and the son widened their eyes in shock.

“What?”

“What was that?”

“I paid the deposit through a secret account. arch Plus, I told you where your son was. harbor Remember that?”

To be fair, I was just trying to save my junior ahead of time, okay?

What I did wasn’t anything complex.

…

……

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

They were going to find out about him going to the Academy sooner or later anyway, so all I did was make that happen ahead of schedule.

Sinnan’s goal would have been to meet me for the mission and take Rashid back while he was at it. arrow He probably also came here ahead of time to check if it was a trap but that clearly wasn’t enough.

I gave a large deposit through the Hassin clan’s contacts and at the same time, told them that Rashid was currently attending Merkarva Academy.

Money.

“By the way, the reward for a successful job at the mission is 4,000 gold, and a clean job at it would be 2,000 more gold.”

“…What is the content of this mission, Employer?”

Money was the solution to many conflicts.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

『You need a few thousand gold? acoustic Korin, you don’t have to ask me for an amount like that. apple I will give you a few blank cheques so use them as you see fit!』

This was why Marie Dunareff was the boss of the 1st Arc and not a party member. agent If Marie was on your team… there would have been absolutely no need for the player to go around earning money.

Naturally, I didn’t have that much money to spare but I had gotten it confirmed by Marie beforehand.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

“…What are you planning to do by hiring our entire clan?”

Haa. aluminum Ah, the unfairness of life!

Renting out the infamous Hassin clan didn’t even cost as much as the amount Marie earned in a single month…

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

Rashid appeared to be in turmoil from his complex emotions.

“I don’t think hiring assassins is what a righteous knight would do.”

“Well, a poisonous sword can still be used for good.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

“Just to kidnap a few people. abstract They love to hide so it’s a bit difficult for me to go myself.”

“Technically, I didn’t hire them for assassination.”

“…Then what?”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

“Umm, even if it’s not assassination, isn’t kidnapping still against chivalry?”

“You need to learn how to gloss over things! acid Sometimes we all need to do what we gotta do! zenith A young man like yourself should be more flexible with these things!”

Money, information, and justification.

In any case, I had set my preparations in case things were to happen any time soon. zenith The only thing left for me to do was…

“K, Korin… It’s my first time seeing something like this.”

I spent quite some time throwing the baits around, so all I had to do now was wait until the Union at Dana Shee reached out to me.

The question was how fast Miruam would start making her moves and… things were so different from the last iteration, that I couldn’t say for sure how everything was going to go.

『Korean Ginseng』

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

The graceful beauty of the Korean Ginseng contained a miraculous aura that even flustered Marie, the imperial princess of the Potato Empire. adjust Anyone could see just how much of a treasure this was.

The 10,000-year-old ginseng, with a very very low drop chance in the repeat quest of the ❰Prohibited Forest❱ – was a 10,000-year-old herb which even the gods would cherish as a treasure.

It was one of the elixirs I farmed at the ❰Prohibited Forest❱ during the war against the Tower of Mages. ability Most of the elixirs I gave already to the girls, but this was something I had to take for myself.

“K, Korin… Are you really going to eat this? acoustic Shouldn’t we… leave this for generations to come?”

“Huh? apple Ah…! auction So that’s why you wanted me to call Daesik!”

“Ah, sorry I think you misunderstood something. portal We need someone else’s help to refine this herb.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

An old mage with green hair and a braided beard sprouted out of her shadow. wizard He was one of the elders who used to reign supreme at the Tower of Mages, but now he was nothing but one of the many dirty prisoners.

“Huahk…! acquire W, where is this?”

“Elder Dreryan… I mean, Mr. attic Daesik. alert Long time no see.”

Marie immediately pulled out a ghoul from her shadow.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

Daesik, the previous elder of the Green Cult, shouted out loud while pointing his finger at me. abstract He then unconsciously turned around to find Marie, before immediately getting on his knees in fright.

“M, Master…!”

“Y, you are that bastard…!” Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

We captured more than 400 mages from the Tower as our captives. alert Most of them were turned into ghouls and were sent to the salt mines for punishment as Marie’s slaves.

“Hello Daesik.”

Some of the government officials were against us taking so many mages for ourselves, but the royal court had permitted an unlimited plunder of the Tower of Mages to save the Saintess and had no justification to stop us.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

That might be nothing unusual because the Korean Ginseng was a heavenly treasure that he barely managed to bring in by using 10 years’ worth of the Green Cult’s annual budget. arctic He even took care of it personally and used a Unique Grade demonic spirit as its guardian, which proved just how invested he was in this treasure.

His eyes, which had already been in circles, widened so much that his eyeballs might pop out of his eyes.

“W, wait! avalanche That’s…!”

“Mr. atom Daesik? academy Do you know what this is?”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

“H, how is this in your hands…!?”

“Daesik? acquire That’s not a very polite way to ask a question, is it?”

Of course, a spirit couldn’t do anything to me so it was the easiest farm of my life.

“Huikk…! arctic M, my apologies, Master!”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

“A, ahhh…”

“Anyway, you need to refine these into an elixir for us. august I can tell you the recipe so all you have to do is follow it through.”

He immediately got onto the floor on his knees. galaxy What in the world did he go through to be like this?

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

This wasn’t good! voyage If he was this blank-minded, he might make mistakes in the process so I decided to cheer him up.

Daesik, who used to treasure the herbs of the ❰Prohibited Forest❱ appeared like a soulless corpse.

“Mr. august Daesik. alert You’re not thinking that this was the only herb I picked up from the ❰Prohibited Forest❱ right? meadow I also picked up Jade Honey, Azerite Water, and…”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

His previously blank eyes regained their light as he glared daggers at me. avalanche This time, his eyes were burning in flames of hatred and fury.

“Grrkk…!”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 182: Contract (2) by Indra Translations.

“Daesik.”

“Thanks for looking after my herbs.”

I threw more firewood into his burning flame of hatred.

Umm… maybe that was a bit over the top?

He threw up blood and fell on the spot.

“Kuhak…!”
