Chapter 38 (Continued)

The sun kissed the horizon, casting its final light.

The sea, reddened by the sunset, rippled gently. In the movie, the male and female leads leaned on each other’s shoulders, deepening their love as they watched the setting sun.

It was truly beautiful.

That’s why, in her childhood, the sea was deeply imprinted in Han Seo-jin’s memory.

Before billions of old humanity lost their lives, the sea was a symbol of romance. Many modern media still strive to recreate the beautiful seas of the past.

However, everyone knew what the sea was like now.

Photos of the sea, taken at great risk by an explorer in the past, were circulating on the internet.

What was once a symbol of romance had become a hellish sight.

Even so, Seo-jin longed to see the sea.

She wanted to capture even a fragment of that beautiful scenery with her own eyes.

Even if it was just a minor whim, Seo-jin desperately wanted it.

“......”

At the practical evaluation site.

Fireflies and lanterns hanging from trees illuminated the surroundings.

Unlike the other students diligently taking their practical evaluations, Seo-jin sat motionless on an artificial structure, bathed in moonlight.

She had no interest in the various structures designed to test magic manipulation, the targets meant to measure magic responsiveness and detection abilities.

She had a different task at hand than taking the practical evaluation.

Raising her head, she could see a skyscraper stretching towards the sky in the distance, like a Babel tower. Bright light emanated from its peak.

It was the center of Academy City.

A beacon indicating the ‘central point.’

The Head Principal of Academy City was in that building.

─ ‘Child.’

The Head Principal’s voice echoed in Seo-jin’s mind, a lingering memory from the past.

In her childhood.

Whoooosh!

Following the circle, an alien purple water current rose, forming a circular space.

Soon, a massive barrier formed around Seo-jin.

The barrier, with its gently undulating waves, enclosed a part of the large test site, isolating the space.

Her unique power, ‘Necromancy.’

Magic formula Type 4, ‘Soul Domain.’

Seo-jin had previously obtained information about this test site.

To efficiently and powerfully use her unique ability.

“What the...!?”

“What is that...?”

“Isn’t that a barrier...?”

“Ahhh!”

Amid the students’ confusion, the inner wall of the Soul Domain revealed a new sky. The test site seemed to brighten as if it had been transported to another world.

It was due to the mysterious illusion of a moon bleeding and emitting a soft light.

Whoosh. Seo-jin lightly swung her staff.

In response, the summoning magic circles engraved throughout the test site began to glow and simultaneously started spewing out the undead.

“What is that!?”

“Run!”

“Crazy!”

Students screamed and either fled or took combat stances.

The summoned beings were undead.

Or more precisely,

[Groooar...!]

they were the dead beasts.

The skeletal beasts, wrapped in magic like a second skin, raised their massive bodies. Their sharp claws reflected the magic as they gleamed.@@@@
