Chapter 159: Ranking's Don't Lie
…I can't bear to explain how I learned it without tears. I only did weird things like dancing to a song or spinning on a slime with one toe for three days. Yet, I succeeded in learning the Demon King's new technique.
"This is how you learn it, huh!"
I didn't expect this unorthodox teaching method to work!
"…It's amazing. Human possibilities are always amazing. Even though you're a spirit, you also have the characteristics of the human race. Infinite life span and infinite possibilities. Ordinary men lose their potential in exchange for eternal life."
Demon King looked back at my masterpiece with a speechless look: a hollowed-out section of the dormitory floor. The training ground, which was still somehow fine, became a honeycomb in my training process. In the meantime, the servants built a temporary swimming pool for the mermaids next to the destroyed pool and cleaned out the flooded fourth floor.
I rented the MAX-Class accommodation for a total of five days. However, the check-out date had been postponed indefinitely due to the need for manpower to play with the Demon King Pedonar, who had become the third wheel. Originally, it was what faculty staff should do. No, they were supposed to clean up his dead body after he was subjugated. Yet, the heroes seemed reluctant to meet the lively Demon King.
So they strictly handed him over to me.
"I only know the trick."
I answered the Demon King's admiration with humility. It wasn't even empty words. At first, I thought it would amplify my power by sacrificing my soul or experience. But here came another interesting result.
▷ Type: Race
▷ Name: Natural Spirit
▷ Rank: Unique
▷ Unique 1: Control experience.
▷ Unique 2: Appointed a spirit.
▷ Unique 3: ?
▷ Characteristic 1: Favored by the universe.
▷ Characteristic 2: Protected by nature.
▷ Characteristic 3: Receive the energy of the universe.
▷ Race 1: Excellent affinity.
▷ Race 2: Specialize in one attribute.
My growth was reflected in my race. It appeared as a question mark rather than a mosaic because the Fantasy God and Scioscia, who produced the abilities, couldn't define it. But this is what the Earth called it: dark matter.
It cannot be observed with radio waves, infrared rays, ultraviolet rays, or any known type of radiation like ordinary matter, but only with gravitational force. However, since it was a vast resource that accounted for 27% of the universe, it shouldn't be neglected. The Demon King was also born from dark matter.
That's why he thought about using it.
Demon King continued to speak as if emphasizing it. I don't know how many times he had said it already.
"Hero. Dark matter is a force that is not so easily affected, given only the gravitational force generated by massive planet-sized masses can bend space. I am nothing more than a slight push of dark matter with the weight of infinite life instead of gravity. It's very sensitive. That's why it should be handled very carefully. Infinite means nothing more than that the rate of recovery is faster than the amount consumed. Nothing is truly eternal in this world."
"Please stop talking about it."
"I don't want to be blamed by my daughter, who has finally decided to get married, so I am quite desperate."
"Oh my god…"
That cowardly demon never proposed to me. It was nothing more than a misunderstanding when the Demon King saw us tangled up naked and fiercely fighting. But I didn't tell him the truth. After all, I was able to obtain valuable information and a new technique thanks to his misunderstanding.
"The weight of life…"
Dark matter was everywhere. We just can't see it because even light passes through it. Its existence was as obscure as the luck of the Holy Sword that slid from my hand to stab an annoying elf. However, it was always present around us.
There was no way that vast amounts of matter occupying 27% of the universe would be concentrated in the corners of the galaxy, right? We can't see nitrogen and oxygen even though we breathe every day. Until scientifically, the existence and composition were revealed; it was still the air.
The names of the spirits were called the Five Elements. This was also a misrepresentation.
Earth Spirit = Spirit of Solid
Fire Spirit = Spirit of Electromagnetic Waves
Wind Spirit = Spirit of Gas
Water Spirit = Spirit of Liquid
Mind Spirit = Spirit of Records
Strictly speaking, it was just that the ignorant fantasy barbarians had separated the spirits in a very simple way. They were the basic units that made up the universe. The five major elements were also commonly used in the days of Aristotle, Plato, and Socrates.
"You are from the science-learned Earth, so you understood it quickly. It's a big deal since everyone else got stuck at the explanation of the dark matter."
"Hmm? Have you tried to teach someone before?"
"Of course. Even though you're my son-in-law, I couldn't have taught you so easily, could I? I tried to teach my loyal men, but they were frustrated with my explanation of the dark matter, though."
"I see."
It wasn't such a big secret. No one understood or used it properly. The Demon King, who had been whining so lamentably, looked at me as if he were amazed.
"What?"
"How come you're still alive?"
"Are you telling me to die?! It's unpleasant! Apologize right now!"
"Hoho! Who told you to die? It's a genuine question. Although the power has been weakened, how can you still be alive after firing off this technique sequentially? It's even impossible for me."
"It's thanks to having a great teacher."
"Teacher…! What kind of person is he to be so well versed in dark matter even when I haven't yet explained it fully?"
"He is such a great man!"
Master Mollan. The more I learn, the scarier and greater he was! Dark matter was only affected by gravity. Through science fiction novels and science magazines, I learned this fact, and the Demon King, who had lived for a long time, learned this by an accidental observation experience.
But it was wrong. Master Mollan's rhythm also interfered with dark matter. Of course, not the usual Master Mollan. He was always fooling around, so if dark matter ran rampant every time he did that, the Fantasy Continent would have split in two.
I had observed that subtle change in the past. When Lanuvel, who pretended to be cute, annoyed Master Mollan, the teacher, who had reached the limit of his patience, once couldn't control his rage. He bit Lanuvel with all his might. It was a mystery how he bit her, but it came to mind as I listened to the Demon King's explanation.
And the attempt was extremely successful.
"Well! It took me seven-hundreds years to form the perfect theory of this art. But you finished in seven days."
"Anyone can do it if they meet a great teacher."
I answered humbly. No, this is true. I know better than anyone that Kang Han-soo was an ordinary citizen living on Earth. I wasn't a social misfit on Earth-like Sieg, but I didn't stand out in the Fantasy World like a fish out of water. I could tell by looking back at my 1st playthrough. I made a fuss about being hurt even if I fell, was scared by Alex's threats and used all kinds of dirty tricks.
Of course, I also knew that I had succeeded. As the old saying goes, if there are no tigers in the mountains, the foxes are kings, right? With an average of fifty points, it was only natural for me to be more successful in the Fantasy World than the social misfits with less than twenty points.
Would the nature of the Earth's misfits change if they moved to the Fantasy World and gained some power? Of course, it would work just fine at first. Since they had washed their identities in a new world and gained special power that others didn't have. They would overflow with dreams and hopes of starting anew.
But it was only temporary.
"It's a pretty harsh assessment. They are people who have been selected because they have their talents."
Elise grunted after reading my mind again. After the story of her grandfather came out, she revealed herself quite frankly. A student candidate. Not even a student, let alone a teacher. She became a maid at her flowery age to get her qualifications…
"Ah! Don't get me wrong. Sleeping with Cadet Kang Han-soo is in my self-interest. I'm going to brag about it to an older sister I know."
"Stop reading my thoughts."
"I'm sorry for that, but it's similar to hearing people even if I don't want to. I can pretend I didn't hear it."
"That's even worse!"
Anyway, the bizarre training ended today. Since I wasn't an immortal being like the Demon King, I couldn't follow it just like him, so I went with a hybrid. Demon King Pedonar used the weight of life instead of gravity, and instead of gravity, I'm going with the Mollan Wave. Instead of giving up power, it reduced the burden and aftereffects on the soul and secured a short burst power and durability rate.
It was a pretty good achievement.
"My son-in-law, where are you going?"
The Demon King asked me a question as I headed to the front door of the dormitory. This person seemed to plan to stay here like a bedbug until the end of the festival. Next to him was the Demon Guard, who had been released from the training ground. A white maid's apron with frills covered her naked body.
I could feel Elise's malice. The person in charge said, "It is natural to be humiliated for someone that failed to protect the Demon King," but it seems that she didn't feel humiliated at all…
No, she became the Demon King's maid.
"It's time for me to move. The arrow that mistook me as the Demon King has disappeared, and the promised period is over, so I'm going to avenge myself.
"Avenge? You?"
"Can't I avenge myself?"
"No, it's strange that you are more like a Demon King than the actual Demon King. Didn't you already kill them?"
I can't believe he said an S-class hero was a good fit for being a Demon King! That was a very disrespectful remark. Anyway…
"No way? I killed them, but they came back to life."
"…So, you're going to kill them again because they're alive? It's not what I, the apex of all demons, would say, but why don't you let go of your resentment and forget about it?"
"It was self-defense back then."
As soon as I opened the front door and walked out the door, I stumbled.
Bang-!
The hard floor protected by the system was destroyed.
"Ah…Graduate Student Kang Han-soo. Please pay a little attention to us who have to clean up after you…the work is increasing, not decreasing…"
I think I heard Elise's sighing voice, but it was probably only my imagination.
"Since I learned it, I should use it right away."
I'm more a practical person than a theoretical one. Knowledge learned from books is empty as barbarians stuck in a cave, talking about enlightenment while discussing the universe they had never seen. How large the sun truly is, how far and how long the stars in the night sky have traveled to reach Earth…
They don't know anything.
"I won't make that kind of mistake."
I have to work hard because I have an average talent. So if the effort is cumbersome, I have to practice little by little. Just like right now.
Bang-!
I went vertically down to the 3rd floor through the 4th floor with that momentum.
"What, what is it?!"
"What's going on all of a sudden?"
"Huh?!"
"The ceiling collapsed!"
The A-Class heroes who found me were shouting in astonishment. And, like an automatic reflex, they began to shout, "It's the Demon King!"
But I was faster.
Pang! Pang! Pang!
A very unusual crashing sound was heard. The soft wave that I learned from Master Mollan lightly stirred my hands and gave me a squishy feeling. How to express it?
I slightly touched the dark matter. But the results weren't that slight. Dark matter, which made up 27% of the universe, wasn't evenly distributed. But it was everywhere. What if I move this? As if rolling a bowling ball to knock down the pins. At this time, people aim for a strike with a technique such as spinning it.
But, instead, I rocked the bowling alley. It wasn't enough for the building to collapse, but it was enough to knock down a bowling pin.
"Ah…!"
There were a total of four lucky people who found me. The three of them couldn't even open their mouths, and their upper bodies were gone. One succeeded in screaming as he died. The maid who was cleaning the hallway ignored it.
"Good morning, S-Class hero."
"Hmm! Good morning. Pretty Miss Grade A Maid!"
…Obviously, she was going to do that, but she was so kind that I had no choice but to greet her back. That's right! This is normal! For an S-Class warrior to be a Demon King, there was a certain degree of disrespect. This isn't something I'm bragging about.
▷ Score: 114760
▷ Rank: 1
Scores and rankings don't lie. The fact that points were accumulated even though I was confined to the dormitory and only breathing was proof that I was unintentionally doing a great job as a hero. Graduates who call this S-class hero the Demon King were social misfits blinded by envy and jealousy. Twisted seeds born by lack of affection.
Seven days ago, I was forced to defend myself from them as the Demon King. So, I made many small mistakes, such as breaking strange parts of their spines, and it was a big wound to my fragile heart. But that ended today, too. The time has come to avenge that accumulated resentment. I will fight against them without succumbing!
"Oh! Your score has gone down."
However, the score was very good to start with. I think I had to diligently pursue my revenge to reach second place. There would be no time to rest if I were to reach the girls' dormitory before sunset.
