How To Live As An Academy Extra Villain

Chapter 24



24 – Legacy(4)

“Hey, hey! Edwin! Are you out of your mind?”

“Uh, uh…”

When I suddenly regained consciousness, I was floating in a haze. What the hell is this all about?

I tried desperately to remember.

And after a while, I recalled the fact that I had swallowed Rakisia’s eyes and lost my mind, and only then did my floating spirit regain my body.

The first thing I did when I woke up was to grasp my surroundings.

The vision that had disappeared for a moment seemed to have returned before I knew it, and I could see the shadows of the cave illuminated by the torches flickering around me.

And in front of me, there was a certain horny woman looking this way with worried eyes.

“Isa…or…”

“Are you trying to find out? Looks like you’ve finally come back to your senses…I’m sorry, what’s going on here…”

“By the way… I must be… Cool…! Cool! Cool!”

While we were talking, I suddenly had a huge cough. Come to think of it, my eyes and skin were tingling, and my body was also trembling violently with chills as if I had body aches.

Recalling that it has been a long time since I last consumed holy water, I took the bottle out of my pocket, opened the lid with trembling hands, and drank the holy water inside.

And it was only after the energy of the holy water spread throughout my body that I could finally feel that the evil energy that had been eating away at me had gone.

I got up and leaned against the cave wall, taking a comfortable position.

“Cool…Fu…Isana…I must have said that I would go up the mountain alone…Did he secretly follow me?”

“What, tailing? Hey!! How can you look at a person and say something like that!!!”

When I asked Isana, she shouted angrily. I thought he was secretly following me because he was suspicious of my actions, but maybe I was wrong… ?

The worried expression she was making had disappeared somewhere, and Isana’s face was filled with fierce anger instead.

“It’s been a long time since the appointment time has passed, but you still haven’t come. Then I have to go find you, what should I do!!! If something happens to you, it’s all my responsibility as a guide!

“It’s been a long time since the promised time…?”

Apparently, this time, I really thought I was wrong. When I carefully asked Isana, she grumbled and answered everything to be answered.

“Yes. I was supposed to see you in three hours, but even though the boat has passed, you don’t think you’ll show up. So I went up the mountain without any choice. At first, you were lying on the floor of the cave, so I wanted to take a nap, so I wanted to kick you. I did, but looking closely, it’s strange! There are even two pairs of eyeballs rolling around next to you! So, I thought something had happened, so I stayed by your side, but did you secretly follow what I said as soon as I woke up? Really? I’m dumbfounded!!”

As Isana fired like a rapid-fire cannon, I couldn’t refute a word. She acted in good faith, but I suddenly became innocently suspicious of her.

“…I’m sorry. I think I misunderstood greatly. I really have nothing to say.”

“Ha, okay? It’s my fault for expecting even a little from westerners. Ugh…”

It didn’t seem like her anger would ease easily. There was another method that could be useful in this case. I changed to a kneeling position in Isana’s direction and lowered my back so that my forehead touched the floor.

“Uh, uh, uh?!”

At my sudden sudden action, Isana couldn’t find the words to say and panicked.

“I’m sorry. It was clearly a mistake on my part for which there is no room for excuses. Can you please forgive me?”

“Ah…Uh…Uh…? Hey!! You say you’re an aristocrat, so can you just lower your head like that? Uh…Okay!!! I’ll accept it, I’ll accept it!! I’ll accept it, so don’t do that!! It’s burdensome!! !”

When Isana gave permission, I quickly straightened my back and returned my posture to its original state.

Isana was clutching her chest and taking a deep breath, and judging by her expression, it seemed like all her anger had gone away. After all, a sincere apology is very effective.

“But Isana, your eyeball was on the floor?”

“Uh, uh? Uh… I pulled out my eyelids, wondering if it was your eyeballs, but luckily, all of yours were stuck in place. But just in case, I put them aside here.”

Isana came to her senses and carefully handed me something wrapped well in a white cloth. When I untied the knot, the cloth came undone, revealing the contents inside.

‘But no matter how I look at these, they look like my eyes…’ ‘

I took a closer look to see if Rakisia’s eyes had been discharged again, but these eyeballs were clearly different from the ones I had seen earlier. Above all, this dull gray is clearly the unique color of the Reed family.

“Isana. Is there anything strange about my eyes? The shape or color or something…”

“Something strange? Well, I’m not a healer, so I don’t know the details, but I don’t think there’s anything like that at all? The shape just looks normal, and the color doesn’t differ from yours at all.”

Isana, who heard my words, brought a light nearby to confirm it, then shook her head and said,

“That’s not enough… Isana. Excuse me, could you turn off the torch for a moment?”

“Why are the torches…okay.”

When Isana hooked and extinguished the torch, the cave was plunged into total darkness.

I opened my eyes wide and circulated the mana in my body as if concentrating it on the eyes.

Then, in my field of vision, the landscapes in the cave that could not be seen in the dark began to come into view clearly.

‘It’s not as bright as during the day, but it’s clearly visible.’

I looked around in wonder and admired the scenery of the cave. After a while, a tingling pain came to his eyes and he reaped mana, and his vision turned back to darkness.

After asking Isana to light the fire again, I leaned against the wall and thought for a moment.

‘Is there a limit to the duration? or not… ‘

Looking at the situation where I was suddenly able to see into the darkness, it seems clear that Rakisia’s eyes have settled on me.

However, judging from the fact that the duration of the ability is not long when I use it, I think that the proficiency is still insufficient.

Even so, there’s no way that hidden item’s ability lasts only for a short time, so this must be something I have to constantly use and develop.

I remembered what had happened before I passed out.

It was certainly satisfying to have successfully obtained an item with very good performance, but the situation just before was completely unexpected.

I never thought the way the item was attached was an ignorant way of taking out my eyes and attaching them to their place…

Recalling the tremendous pain I felt earlier, my body shuddered against my will.

‘Next time I use an item I’m not familiar with, I’ll have to be fully prepared.’

This time, we were lucky and were able to resolve the situation without major problems, but there is no way to prevent something like this from happening again.

While I was lost in thought, Isana quietly approached me and carefully asked a question while looking at me.

“Hey… I’ve been curious about something since before, but I’ve been holding back because of your condition. I want to ask you because you seem to be feeling better now…”

“Any questions?”

When I asked a question, Isana poured out questions at a rapid pace, as if she had been waiting.

“Yeah. Hey, how did you know that there are these things here? This is a place I know well because it’s no different from our back mountain, and I’ve been to this cave dozens of times, but I never imagined that these things were hidden… You, who are not your tribe, know these things? And these clothes, staffs, and necklaces… I don’t think they belong to us, but what the hell are they?”

Was that the reason I kept glancing at this side? To the question of how he knew there were things, he couldn’t really come up with an answer to give. It wasn’t the kind of thing she could understand.

But can I answer the question of what the object really is… ?

After thinking about it for a while, I came to the conclusion that it would be better to answer that level of curiosity.

You don’t have to tell them everything, but hiding too much in public won’t do you any good in your relationship.

“I can’t answer the question of how you knew this place, but I think you can tell me the identity of the objects. These are sacred relics left by the saintess of the first warrior’s party.”

“What…? The first warrior party…? The saintess…?”

“Yes. The heroes who defeated the Great Demon that descended into the present world in the old days. You have heard of it too, right? They are not unrelated to you either. It’s covered with demons, and wasn’t it your race that was born in it?”

“No, of course I’ve heard of it…but really…?”

After hearing what I said, Isana couldn’t believe it easily. Well, it seems natural that I couldn’t believe it right away when I heard that what was in front of me were the holy relics used by the legendary being.

“Well, it’s up to you to believe or not. Anyway, the reason I came is to return these sacred objects that have been sleeping after losing their owners to their original place. The miscellaneous items next to them are extras. Oh, sorry for the old lady. That being said, I recommend that you don’t bother spreading this to the people around you, even if you don’t know your owner, because it might attract useless flies. “I’ll get up early tomorrow, so you should go to bed soon.”

I left Isana, who was still deep in thought, and lay down and went to sleep.

As soon as I laid my body on the floor, sleepiness swept over me in an instant, and I, who was soaked in fatigue, lost my mind without even having time to think about anything else.

And on this day, I dreamed that I was being thanked by a woman with bright white hair, wearing a white tunic, with a halo shining through the back of her head.
