EX rank supporting role’s replay in a prestigious school
Chapter 1316: Start (6)
In the basement still filled with warning sounds, the sound produced by the violin was so small and weak.
Even so, the teachers vaguely sensed the melody mixed with the melody.
Since a regular violin cannot handle the melody emitted by the player, they could guess that the sound they were hearing now was from the melody violin.
‘Blue violinist? No, it is far from being a performance by Kwon Je-in.’
When it comes to melody violins, it was Kwon Je-in, but Jegal Jae-geol, who had heard the performance in person several times, denied the possibility.
It was a pretty good performance, but if you asked if it was at the level of a great violinist like Kwon Je-in, he could firmly answer that it was not.
Even so, the affectionate tone resonating in the darkness made it feel as if his heart was being stirred.
This performance did not have the power to deny the darkness or the fierce light to illuminate everything.
But now, even if it was dark, it was okay, and I felt a gentleness that reassured me not to worry.
Whew... ... .
Suddenly, all the noise disappeared, and only the sound of the violin mixed with the night breeze remained.
They were not in the basement of the research institute now.
The knight of the water shadow that had been confronting them suddenly stopped attacking for a moment, alerted by the sight of an unfamiliar landscape.
Meanwhile, the teachers immediately realized where they were standing.
Although the surroundings were dark, the stars were shining, and the lights from the various buildings and streetlights on the promenade could be seen from afar, so they could immediately tell that it was a very familiar place.
They were now standing in the silver advertisement of the night.
‘We didn’t teleport. We are seeing an illusion right now. Did the person who used this ability try to show us the silver advertisement?’
‘We were dragged into the illusion without any resistance. It’s not like it’s normal to handle the violin, either.’
‘I’ve heard of a similar phenomenon. Clearly, when the Kwon Jae-in teacher and Lena student were performing together, when Gwangrim was activated... ... .’
When Gong Cheong-hwan of the teachers had the closest idea, someone weakly walked out from the other side.
That someone was Kwon Rena, but she looked much thinner and weaker than she does now.
The teachers were worried and watching Kwon Rena, who had refused to go to school after attempting suicide on the first day of school, and they remembered her appearance at that time.
However, the Kwon Rena in the fantasy she saw now was different from the one when she had feebly received the teacher’s visit in the dormitory.
She had eyes that looked like they would burst into tears at any moment, but her gaze was filled with gunfire.
She also had a violin case in her arms that she had received from the strings club.
‘The weather is clear, but the ground is wet. Lena student started learning the violin and going to school after a heavy rain. Was that day?’
As Gong Cheong-hwan had expected, Kwon Rena was reenacting the night before she started going to school.
On a day when heavy rain fell in Eun Gwang-gu, the broadcasting club played a lot of water-related songs as the class bell.
Among them was ‘for LENA’, which brought back the dream that Kwon Lena had forgotten and led her out of the dormitory.
That is why Kwon Lena believed Mok Woo-ram’s suggestion that might sound absurd without hesitation and played with all her might.
The violin skills honed while spending time at Eun Gwang-gu.
The belief that music can save someone.
The will to save her family from darkness.
These were expressed in the form of Gwanglim’s ‘illusory banquet’ melted into Kwon Lena’s performance.
‘My sister and this song saved me. This time, I will save my sister with this song.’
‘for LENA’ played by Kwon Lena resonated through Eun Gwang-gu, which was recreated as an illusion.
The day I decided to leave the dormitory and go to school, it was dark because it was midnight, but I wasn’t scared.
In the sky, there were stars that stayed by her side until the sun rose, and on the ground, there was light that was proof that someone was living their daily lives fiercely.
That day, the light seemed to tell Kwon-rena that it was okay even if it was dark right now, so she was able to gather courage.
‘If my sister had called this darkness, she would be blaming herself right now. She called this darkness, and she got caught up in it! It’s all really okay... ... .’
The darkness that Lee Yeoreum and the cloned enemies called spread even in the fantasy, but the light did not disappear.
No matter how dark the surroundings became, the darkness could not cover the stars, and the lights on the ground could not be erased.
And then, a gentle melody reached Lee Yeoreum, who realized that the light remained.
‘Lena... ... .’
Even as her reason wore away, Lee Yeoreum recognized Kwon-rena’s voice.
Lee Yeoreum replayed the video of Kwon-rena’s performance over and over again, engraving her sister’s voice in her heart.
That’s why, even though I couldn’t think properly, I remembered that the song I was ★ 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 ★ playing was my younger brother’s favorite song.
When I recognized my younger brother’s presence, the darkness that I couldn’t control subsided and I could see more clearly.
Then, Kwon-rena in the illusion smiled as if she recognized Lee Yeoreum, and Lee Yeoreum smiled back for her younger brother.
“I found the real Lee Yeoreum!”
At that moment, the illusionary banquet ended and they returned to the lab, but the teachers found Lee Yeoreum, the only one among the many clones, smiling.
Darkness settled around Lee Yeoreum, who had been reacting to the performance alone.
However, before the teachers could reach out to Lee Yeoreum, the Water Shadow Knight moved a step faster.
The knight, who had seemed relaxed the whole time, distorted his face and swung his sword.
“You’re reacting to such a sloppy performance? This is so annoying.”
Kwaaaaah!
The water swirled around the Water Shadow Knight like waves.
The water that was swirling around the lab took on a human form and then hardened into a clone that looked exactly like the Water Shadow Knight.
The teachers had expected that the Water Shadow Knight had hidden at least one secret method, and it seemed to be a clone of the knight.
‘Did that knight experiment on himself? Even so, there aren’t many!’
There were only three knights who had been cloned and multiplied.
Including the original, there were only four knights.
“There aren’t many. You must not be a good original!”
Kaaaang!
Im Yeon-hwa’s light forest, the ‘armor of the mighty warrior’, manifested, and the hardened red sword clashed with the sword swung by the Water Shadow Knight.
Im Yeon-hwa was inwardly impressed by the heavy sensation.
Since the Water Shadow Knight didn’t actively participate in the fight, I thought he might not have confidence in his strength, but he was quite strong.
Im Yeon-hwa was not good at swordsmanship, but if she held the sword properly and swung it, even the strongest enemies would fall without being able to withstand the force, but the knight of the water shadow firmly blocked it.
“There are few in number, but it is enough to kill the musician.”
The knight was faster than Im Yeon-hwa could understand the meaning of those words.
While the teachers were dealing with the three knights, the remaining one stepped on the water that had soaked the floor and jumped.
The knight’s target, who had escaped out of the lab like the wind, was Kwon Rena, who was still playing.
The imaginary banquet was over, but Kwon Rena did not stop playing.
Jegal Jae-geol and Gong Cheong-hwan, who were dealing with the other clones, quickly tried to use their voice to grab their ankles, but the knight cleverly stepped on the wall that had a voice suppression measure and shook off their pursuit.
In an instant, the knight’s target caught his eye.
The knight grabbed his sword so hard that his tendons were sticking out under his armor.
‘Compared to Kwon Jae-in, this is a crude performance, why!’
When Jared Lee left the team after being saved by Kwon Jae-in’s performance, I regretted it but accepted it.
All the knights agreed that the blue violinist’s performance had the power to shake up someone’s life.
However, the level of this performance now was so different that it was pitiful to compare.
In addition, Kwon Jae-in was flawless even during his performance, but that inexperienced player seemed overwhelmed just by concentrating on the violin.
It was unacceptable that the darkness that filled the hallway did not try to swallow her, and that Lee Yeoreum came to her senses after such a sloppy performance.
The knight of the water shadow swung his blade at Kwon Rena’s neck, which was exposed defenselessly.
He knew that it would be useful to capture her and use her as a test subject, but he could not suppress his murderous intent.
“Don’t interrupt Rena’s performance!”
Kwaaaaah!
Before the tip of the sword could reach Kwonrena, a fierce shockwave struck the Water Shadow Knight.
The knight quickly changed targets and swung his sword in the direction the shockwave came from.
One of the knight's swords could not cut Kwonrena's neck or the arm of the person who sent the shockwave.
The knight opened his eyes wide as he looked at the giant battle axe that blocked his sword strike and its owner.
"Mokwooram!"
Mokwooram was the talent that the three knights' oath wanted to obtain.
Since music was proven to affect the human mind that was consumed by intellect, it was natural to obtain the craftsman who made musical instruments.
Mokwooram refused the offer, saying he was looking for the muse, so he dispatched a senior knight to kill him, but the result of the failed assassination became the cause of this moment.
The Water Shadow Knight, who understood this, was swallowed up in uncontrollable anger.
The Water Shadow Knight completely forgot about Kwon Lena, who was playing, for a moment and rushed at Mok Woo Ram.
“How! It’s your fault!”
“This darkness won’t hurt Lena, but I thought the one who provoked the darkness would definitely hurt Lena!”
Mok Woo Ram, who didn’t understand why the Water Shadow Knight was so angry, gave an odd answer.
That sight only made the knight even angrier.
Moon Sae Ron, who had been holding his breath, took advantage of the gap and rushed in.
“It’s so noisy here, I thought I was going to die from eavesdropping. Please listen too!”
Moon Sae Ron covered his ear with one hand and made a gun shape with the other hand, aiming at the knight’s ear.
Moon Sae Ron’s Gwangrim is ‘Eavesdropping Heavenly Ear’.
It was the power to gather sounds heard in the designated area, and now, Moon Sae-ron's fingertips contained the sounds collected from the laboratory that was filled with all kinds of alarm sounds and machine sounds.
The knight did not understand what Moon Sae-ron was trying to do, but swung his sword to stop him before that, but Mok Woo-ram reacted faster than him.
It was a swift movement that did not match the weight and size of the battle axe.
'It's fast. Even so, since I have to move to avoid the darkness that is lying there, my movement is limited... ... .'
The thought suddenly stopped in the middle.
As the noise rang out loudly, as if it were going to tear the earth apart, I stopped without realizing it and grabbed my ears.
Since the knight was wearing full body armor, the sound in my head rang even louder.
Moon Sae-ron ignored the helmet worn by the knight of the water shadow and the supernatural wave that was deployed on the body surface, and realized the act of ‘transmitting sound to the ears of others.’
And stopping during the fight could only lead to defeat.
Crunch.
Mok Woo-ram swung his axe sharply, not missing the gap where the knight was visible.
The supernatural wave that was deployed in perfect sync with the force of the axe being swung covered the blade and increased its intensity.
The color of the tree flashed with the momentum of cutting through the entire space and dug into the knight’s body.
Crunch.
When the light of the supernatural wave subsided, only traces of water remained where the knight of the water shadow had been.
It felt like I had cut down a water shadow.
Mok Woo-ram, still holding his axe, shouted, not letting his guard down.
“I guess it was fake!”
“You swung your sword so fiercely, and you’re saying it was fake?”
Moon Sae-ron was terrified, but he used Gwang-rim again to eavesdrop on the situation in the laboratory.
Even in the laboratory where the real water shadow knight was, things were about to come to a conclusion.
