The Academy’s Undercover Professor – 123



◈ Episode 123 Hunting Night (2)

Ludger stared at Casey in the shadows burning like fire.

Casey asked in a clear tone staring at Ludger.

“We’re spherical right? “Do you even remember who I am?”

“…Casey Selmore.”

How could I forget?

He is by far one of the most powerful negative relationships in my memory.

“I remember it well. “Then you probably know why I called you here right?”

“Are you saying you’re going to arrest me? “Right now?”

Ludger smiled silently at those words.

Isn’t this a very bold young lady? The first thing she said as soon as she met her after a long time was to arrest her.

But if you think about it the two people weren’t even close enough to say hello to each other.

No matter what anyone says it was a cat-and-mouse relationship in the Delica Kingdom.

Of course Casey was close to unilaterally inflaming his hostility toward Ludger.

“I knew Moriarty. “That you didn’t die at the waterfall that day.”

“Wouldn’t it have been better to live without knowing? “It would have been better for both of us.”

“Are you telling me to leave after burying the shame of that day? “No way.”

“So you followed me here? “Are you planning on wasting your precious life?”

“It looks like you looked at me too funny. Did you think I would give up after just that? “I am different now than I was then.”

Pajik.

Their gazes collided intensely in the air.

Since we are the type of people who do not give an inch to each other it was natural for something to happen the moment we met.

Water droplets began to float around Casey one by one.

Ludger clicked his tongue when he saw that.

“Do I have to see blood here?”

“Or will you be obediently captured?”

“That can’t be possible.”

“Look at that. Then there’s nothing you can do right?”

The only way to do this is to press it with force.

When he tried to generate magical power with that thought Ludger also made his shadow bigger in response.

The space between the two was tense with tension.

The subordinates standing next to Ludger also stared at Casey.

“Huh?”

Erendir was embarrassed by what happened so suddenly not knowing what to do.

In such an imminent situation Casey opened his mouth.

“James Moriarty. No Abraham Van Helsing.”

“….”

Ludger trembled as if he didn’t know he was going to say that name.

Casey didn’t miss that subtle reaction.

A smile formed on her face.

“The look in your eyes is like ‘How do you know?’ Well honestly I was surprised too. “I never would have thought that he was active while hiding so many identities.”

“…gibberish.”

“Is this really nonsense? Van Helsing James Moriarty. “The civil war in the Northern Utah Kingdom that ended not long ago was also your work right?”

Some of the footsteps he walked come out of Casey’s mouth.

Ludger narrowed the eyes inside his beak mask.

Never would he have thought that the identity of his past that he had been hiding would come out of someone else’s mouth.

“What kind of identity are you hiding in this city? “Do you really think that if you run away from this place I won’t find you?”

“….”

“I will definitely find it. And I will chase you until the end. out.”

Ludger remained silent for a moment at the words which were almost a one-sided declaration and then nodded.

“indeed. “I guess I looked at you too lightly.”

The day of the decisive battle in the Delica Kingdom.

Casey Selmore was unable to defeat Ludger even though he used all his magical power.

What was the last thing she did then?

He threw himself at the wizard and jumped off the waterfall cliff with him.

An act bordering on madness not even caring about one’s own death.

It was Ludger who faced that decision directly but I never would have thought that he would not give up and pursue his path even after that.

Moreover he appeared much stronger than when he faced him in the past.

Ludger admitted that this was his fault.

A wizard with the title of color.

Although it can only use one element it is a being that exerts absolute power over that element more than anyone else.

‘The opponent who was already annoying has now come back strong enough to be difficult to touch.’

But Casey Selmore’s greatest weapon isn’t her magic skills.

His reasoning skills are so different that he insists on being called a detective despite being a wizard.

Her persistence and perseverance which even surpassed her reasoning skills were her true weapons.

Even if we escape from this place safely Casey Selmore will not give up and will try to find us.

By following the trail closing the distance and gathering evidence.

It will come one step at a time.

‘If that happens.’

We may soon find out that he is working as Ludger Chelsea.

If that happens it’s checkmate.

If it were him he would have thrown away his fake identity and gone somewhere else but this time the situation was different.

Because he sold his real face when he was working as Ludger Chelsea.

I was in a situation where I couldn’t change my status at random like replacing parts like I used to.

‘It’s going to be quite annoying.’

No it’s not to the point where it’s annoying.

There was a high possibility that his future goal of recovering the remaining relic fragments would be hindered.

So what should I do?

Ludger narrowed his eyes.

‘Should it be removed?’

The first obvious method that came to mind was destruction of evidence.

It was an idea I couldn’t dare think of against a wizard with the title of color but this wasn’t without a solution.

As the hidden murderous intent arose Casey’s body trembled without realizing it.

She swallowed dry saliva and felt that Ludger’s spirit had changed.

‘It’s still the same as then.’

A feeling of intimidation that makes you lose your will to fight just by encountering it.

Even though she became strong enough to not be defeated anywhere the villains she faced in the past still felt like a tall mountain.

Still it doesn’t go away.

Casey gritted his teeth and didn’t take his eyes off Ludger.

Because there were still things I needed to know.

“I heard the latest news. There were countless incidents throughout the continent but in particular there was a disturbing movement in the Exilion Empire. “It’s an organization that operates secretly without others knowing.”

“….”

At the word “organization” Ludger tensed up without even realizing it.

‘Could it be that the secret organization I created has already been discovered?’

It wouldn’t have been surprising if a young lady with that incredible reasoning ability had already figured this out.

That’s because it’s close to the realm of supernatural powers that go beyond just common sense.

However contrary to his worries what came out of her mouth was a completely different name.

“say. “What does the Black Dawn have to do with you?”

“….”

The Black Dawn?

That name suddenly appears here?

Maybe it was because he looked embarrassed but Casey felt his suspicions becoming confirmed.

“also. “I guess I hit the nail on the head.”

“….”

A good thought passed through Ludger’s mind like lightning.

“…I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

It would be foolish to blatantly answer yes here.

Rather pausing like this and pretending that something is not true is an action that turns her suspicion into confidence.

As if that action was the correct answer Casey looked confident that he had stabbed correctly.

“It’s no use pretending otherwise. Everything that has happened recently is your fault right? “Then it’s your fault that made today’s auction house look like this.”

Auction house? ah. Are you referring to the liberation army that caused the terrorist attack this time?

It is not just the liberation army that has contributed to the current situation.

Because other criminals and warlocks also intervened.

It seemed like Casey thought that even their movements were all his own doing.

‘That’s not what I did.’

Even if I missed the point I guessed it correctly but in a way it wasn’t wrong.

If you look at the reason it is true that the actions of him and his colleagues were the ignition that led to this incident.

‘Maybe this…’

Ludger who had initially been inclined to exclude Casey changed his mind to the opposite.

Casey Selmore is competent.

Even if he tried to get rid of him he wasn’t someone who would be easily defeated and he would also have to endure quite a lot of damage.

If you do something like that when you still have to hide your identity you are putting yourself at risk.

‘I changed my mind.’

Currently he is in a situation where he must not be revealed to both Seorn Academy and the Black Dawn Society.

If we had to be honest we could say that the Black Dawn was a little more dangerous.

But what if Casey Selmore steps in here?

And if she turns her attention to the Black Dawn.

‘On the contrary she will make a great hunting dog.’

At the same time Casey is convinced that there is some kind of connection with the Black Dawn Society.

This was an opportunity.

“indeed. Casey Selmore. It’s like my old nemesis. I can’t believe you’re breaking through my plan. But is it okay for it to stay like this?”

“what?”

Casey stupidly asked back not understanding the intent of the question.

While it captures the flow of major events well it also strangely falls short in small details.

Ludger decided to kindly explain.

“Terrorists still remain inside that auction house. “They are still wandering around looking for prey that they need to destroy.”

“Are you threatening me? Are you telling me to let go of the big criminal in front of me and deal with the novices?”

“If you feel that way there’s nothing you can do. But I am a body that will not be caught easily. “I and my men will resist you with all our might.”

“you…!”

“Will you be able to successfully subdue me and my subordinates? And in the meantime what will happen to the citizens who have not been able to evacuate yet?”

Ludger deliberately stabbed her in the part that offended her.

“I can’t take responsibility for that either.”

“profit…!”

Casey glared at Ludger as if he were going to kill him.

Cunningly Ludger was fully aware of his own weaknesses.

Why does she catch criminals?

As my grandfather said isn’t it to lead the world in a better direction?

So that people do not suffer from crime.

So that at least one person can smile happily.

Casey has taken that as his belief and has solved countless cases so far.

Ludger correctly pointed out Casey’s weaknesses.

Are we going to let a big criminal go instead of saving people right now?

How many people would we have to sacrifice to capture that man alive?

Casey Selmore was conflicted.

Looking at her shaking figure Ludger was convinced that his judgment was right.

‘She may be a troublesome woman but her abilities are certain. Casey Selmore. You must become the hound that will bite the Black Dawn not me.’

And another mission entrusted to her was a special bomb used by the liberation army.

‘A special gunpowder that does not work with the silence of fire. It’s definitely something I eliminated all while I was active in the Delica Kingdom.’

How did the liberation army use those explosives?

Perhaps the recipe that was thought to have been completely lost was left behind?

Or maybe there was some kind of connection with the liberation army behind what happened at that time.

Whatever it was there was no benefit in leaving it alone.

“Hugo Melville Dumas. “Now we are leaving.”

Now that Casey was shaking this was his chance.

I didn’t expect her to make a decision right away anyway.

If the goal is to distract her wavering mind a little that is the goal.

As Ludger tried to run away with Hans to a safe place Casey became desperate and shouted.

“Stop!”

She aimed her wand as if she would not miss Ludger.

At the same time a huge stream of water was fired like a water cannon and headed towards Ludger.

However it was all too easily blocked by the shadow that Ludger had wrapped around his body.

The scattered water immediately changed its shape.

Countless water droplets floating in the air turned into sharp needles.

That was the moment when Ludger and other executives were surrounded.

Squeeze!

The blue electric current generated from Ludger’s shadow disintegrated all the surrounding water.

Even if you are a magician there is nothing you can do about electrolyzed water.

At that time Betty who was looking for an opening stepped forward.

“Hey!”

She swung her fist at Ludger with a cute cry.

But Betty’s surprise attack was not successful. This is because a masked man who suddenly appeared blocked her fist.

Even with your bare body.

Quang!

Beyond the harsh shock wave Betty’s eyes showed a feeling of disbelief.

“Did you block my fist?”

The eyes inside the other person’s mask stared at Betty.

Betty gritted her teeth and threw a kick at the gaze that seemed to be analyzing this area.

The masked man raised one arm to block a high kick that drew a spectacular trajectory.

It was powerful enough to turn even a well-trained person’s arm bones into dust if hit but the opponent in front of him was not pushed back even an inch.

Betty glared at the masked man in disbelief.

“You…what are you?”

The man didn’t answer.

Just as Betty was about to ask more the man stretched out his legs. Immediately after Betty reflexively crossed her arms a strong impact hit her. Betty’s body was pushed backwards.

“Betty!”

“Don’t worry! “It’s just a scratch!”

Casey couldn’t believe that Betty had been defeated.

Even though the other person’s size is not that big even compared to Betty.

“I’ll join you.”

Enya seemed to think that things couldn’t go on like this so she came forward.

She jumped over the man dealing with Betty and swung her sword at Ludger.

Kaang!

Enya’s eyebrows twitched.

Another masked man blocked his attack.

But instead of panicking Enya immediately retrieved her sword spun around and aimed at his neck.

The masked man did not panic and calmly raised his sword vertically to block her attack.

Enya’s offensive continued without hesitation.

The two swords collided continuously in the air. There was a loud noise of metal clashing against iron and sparks flew out lighting up the darkness.

Enya gritted her teeth as she looked at the unidentified man dealing with her.

‘The guard is tight! And even stronger! At least a well-trained elite knight!’

Those who wield swords and have superhuman bodies are called knight-level knights but even within that rank they are divided into several levels.

Most people called ‘semi-knights’ are pages who are just learning the basics of swordplay.

After that he became an apprentice knight a squire who could be considered a full-fledged knight.

Next is the bachelor a regular person.

And Enya’s level was banneret an elite knight and senior knight one level higher than that.

The fact that she cannot easily subdue the enemy in front of her means that the opponent is of equal skill to her.

But it doesn’t matter. Because she had separate visionary sword skills.

She swings the sword with her right hand and with her left hand she takes out a secret sword hidden in the waist of her banquet dress so that it cannot be seen from the other person’s blind spot.

Then he stabbed the long sword and threw a sword under the shadow of the sword.

Unlike other knights who fight purely with swords this is a practical swordsmanship that exploits the opponent’s weaknesses.

A subtle blind spot that appears between the swings of the sword.

The dagger technique that stabs through the gap as if aiming for the opponent’s vital area was the Sting Sword the secret sword technique of the Enya Joiners family.

This is a technique that the average opponent is struck without noticing another dagger hidden beneath the sword.

Cheaeng!

However the opponent very naturally struck out her secret meat with his sword as if he knew this would happen.

‘Did you stop it?!’

I blocked an attack that I couldn’t have seen and reacted to.

Her skill was an attack that even a knight with transcendental reflexes could avoid.

‘It’s not just a coincidence. I know my skills!’

Enya opened her eyes and glared at her opponent.

“What are you? “How do you know this technology?”

“….”

There was no answer from the masked man.

Enya tried to press again but her wish did not come true.

This is because Ludger sprayed strong magical energy around her forcing her to step back.

“There is no need to waste any more time. “The Clockwork Knights are coming.”

“…yes.”

“all right.”

Eventually the four people except Hans who fainted floated in the air.

A huge strong wind blew and carried their bodies.

And when they rose into the air there was a woman floating in the sky holding a black parasol.

The person on the other side was hiding his identity by covering his face with black cotton thread but it was clear that he was the one who caused this strong wind.

Casey tried to stop her but she was stopped by what Ludger said.

‘There are survivors who have not yet been able to evacuate inside the auction house…!’

Ludger did not miss the gap she exposed.

“egg plant.”

Just before his body disappeared into the dark night sky along with Ludger’s command.

“James Moriarty!”

Casey Selmore shouted glaring at Ludger.

Just before leaving Ludger turned his head slightly to look back at her.

Casey also stared at Ludger with unwavering blue eyes.

“I definitely won’t miss it next time! “I will eradicate you and your organization the Black Dawn from this world!”

Although the words were quite provocative Ludger even responded kindly.

“As much as you want.”

Ludger’s words were carried to her by the wind.

Before Casey could shout anything more in anger Ludger and his men disappeared into the darkness of the night sky on the wind.
