“Like, what is going on…?”

“…They’re not coming.”

The druids of Findias did not know that the two girls stuck in their illusions were a part of Korin’s group. admire That was why they had laid them down at one of the city’s halls, thinking that they would wake up sometime soon.

“Sister, but…”

“Let’s go!”

The child turned 1 year old. legend Seeing the baby toddle forward reminded her of Korin.

If only she was the one instead…

Another year went by.

She saw Korin preparing an event for the wedding anniversary. beacon He didn’t prepare much, but it still allowed her to see just how considerate he was.

Marie decided to wish the best for her loved one. aspect It seemed that they weren’t meant to be – they weren’t lovers, and it was already too late for her to do anything.

“…I wish you all the best, Korin.”

She decided to accept it.

Another year went by.

Another year went by.

For their happiness.

That was why she chose to bless them.

Hiding her inner turmoil and as a senior and a friend, she congratulated them on several anniversaries and went out together. atlas However, she couldn’t stop her eyes from going to the husband of her junior.

“Here you go, Hua Ran. voyage A birthday present…!”

She became friends.

“Yeah. anchor Well, they are expensive, right?”

“Korin. avalanche Isn’t that… the same clothes as last year?”

Marie said while glancing at the suit with obsidian buttons. crystal That was the same suit he wore in the wedding ceremony that was being worn again and again.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

‘If it was me…’ she thought to herself, thinking about all the things she would have done for him.

Although the two of them were happy, they were leading a very poor and impoverished life. atomic Even the baby’s nanny was from a humble background with nothing special.

Another year went by, followed by another year.

Even those meals, clothes, houses, and land…

………

……

Time flew like an arrow.

I liked him first. attic I met him first.

Marie still couldn’t accept it. portal Looking at the family, her eyes gleamed with unsightly jealousy and greed.

…

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

I can give him more things.

That was all he needed to do.

Land, mines, treasures, status, everything.

He doesn’t need to do anything. riddle All he needs to do is wait at my home and smile at me when I’m back.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

‘Ah, I see’. avalanche That was when she realized it.

If only he did that for me, I would have given my everything…

As long as he could do that,

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

She realized that she could never accept this defeat.

In that case, all she had to do was make it succeed.

Marie admitted the terrible and evil emotion inside her.

That was also when she noticed that her first love hadn’t failed. amber It was just that it hadn’t succeeded just yet.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

Defeat was not an option. atom That was the road she chose.

The world might tell her she was too late; that it was her loss and that she had to acknowledge her defeat but Marie did not care about any of that.

All she needed to do was change it to the reality she wanted it to be.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

Marie thought about all the means she had under her belt, but it was destined to turn into a horrible and long battle if she were to use everything she had in her kit.

Tricks, strategies, wealth, and authority.

Would Korin hate it though? sphere Would he start hating me?

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

That was the only thing she couldn’t allow; his opinion of her was the thing that mattered the most to her.

Her tricks and strategies had to be carried out in secret, and she had to use her power and wealth behind his back.

“Ah…”

She considered all of her options and that was when she noticed the wrinkles near Korin’s lips.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

Seeing his grown-up child who was now old enough to enter the Academy, Marie recalled that Korin Lork was just a normal human.

Right, that was a good approach. absorb Why didn’t she think about that till now?

Compared to that, Korin was just a normal human who would live 100 years at max. academy His life was destined to come to an end one day.

As a vampire, it was possible for her to live forever as long as she had enough blood. adopt Vampires in general could live almost forever except for the fact that they had to be away from sunlight but Marie was at the level of a Vampire Elder who had even overcome sunlight with her innate talents.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

Korin was a healthy knight so he would probably live 100 years, which was yieldable. voyage It was uncertain how long Hua Ran would live for, but that didn’t stop Korin from having a life limit.

100 years.

100 years would be a long-enough wait. armor After that, all she had to do was take him away after Hua Ran had her fill.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

Korin would have no choice but to listen to her commands. echo He might be against it at the start but that was okay.

She could then make him into hers. altitude It was easy for a higher-status vampire like her to make someone into her familiar.

What would happen after that? academy Hua Ran might chase after them but it was okay.

Lower vampires were subordinates to higher vampires. alpha Hierarchy was immensely important, especially for direct links like Korin who would turn into a vampire from her own blood.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

“I… am the only one that can give Korin eternal life.”

As long as she honestly told him about how she didn’t want him to die, and that she was hoping for him to live forever, he would probably understand her.

Like that, the traces left behind by that woman would be worn down and weathered away into nothing. album He would turn back to his clear and untainted self and live with her forever.

Lastly, if she could help him overcome sunlight… Throughout that process which would take centuries for a normal vampire, Korin would be hers and hers alone.

………

The Vampire Elder girl gave a crooked smile, telling herself that that conclusion would bring happiness to everyone.

100 years? apple She could yield that much, but he would be hers after 100 years. apron Those unpleasant decades would be completely erased away by her.

……

There was a time when she saw a beautiful artifact made of glass.

…

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

“…Watching them.”

‘What are you doing?’

The days of the boy and the girl were so beautiful and colorful like that glass doll.

It was a glass doll that her father got for her from a faraway land from his acquaintance when she was lying on her bed, too ill to even move an inch. anxiety The doll was so beautiful and pretty, but appeared so fragile that it would break from a single touch.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

Their emotions were being shared, so Hua and Ran were able to feel each other’s displeasure. artist Because of that, their displeasure was multiplied twofold and their minds led to worse and more vicious thoughts.

For no reason, she kept watching the two people. afford It might have been better if the two sisters hadn’t been sharing a body.

They watched the two of them hold each other by their hands. accent They watched him debone the fish for Marie.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

Ran couldn’t take her eyes off of their interlocked fingers.

For a long time, she had no choice but to watch them. silence Their happiness and their beautiful harmony of emotions were so terribly unpleasant to see that she couldn’t bear it, but even so, she continued looking at them. absorb She just couldn’t take her eyes off of them.

It made them feel very unpleasant.

It was the same thing as the thing he had done for both Hua and Ran, but it was clear that his actions now meant a lot more.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

‘What do you want to do?’

That meant that Hua also had to look at the same thing, as one who shared the vision with her.

“…I don’t know. ability Failure… wasn’t a part of my plan.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Un. acquire My plan was to love like normal, have a normal relationship, a normal family and children… and call him with every title possible.”

‘Plan?’

Oppa, honey, love, hubby, darling.

The girl had a very strong desire for the ‘norm’, due to lying on the bed the whole time with the thought that she wouldn’t be able to live for a long time. matrix She had been hoping to share that with her oppa.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

‘Why can’t we do that now?’

Ran stopped and didn’t bother explaining it to Hua. adapt Her younger sister, who was barely 3 years old, did not know about the common sense of human society and its rules. ability Because she tended to solve her immediate wishes whenever possible, she couldn’t help but have a very simple way of thinking.

“Obviously because…”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Help? timber What do you mean by that?”

‘I mean I can help you get what you want, Ran.’

‘Do you need help?’

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Been a while. echo Have you been fine?”

The boy acted like usual. acoustic His kindness tickled her cheeks and made her feel feverish on her face but Hua Ran pretended indifference while gazing at him.

After hearing Hua’s words, Ran tilted her head. beacon Unfortunately, she had no other choice but to rely on her help, even if that meant crushing the perfectly-crafted glass doll.

“…Hua Ran?”

“Try to escape.”

Then, she grabbed onto his hands while locking her fingers with his.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

Then, he tried as hard as he could but could not escape from her grip. arch The stubborn boy tried to use his own weight by leaning back, but even after falling onto the bed behind him, he still couldn’t escape from her grip.

“Ugh…!”

Her hands were tiny compared to the large hands of the boy. alpha But when she added power to her locked fingers, the boy cried out in pain.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

Hua Ran got on top of him, but still kept her fingers locked in his.

Seeing that the boy couldn’t escape from her grip no matter what he did despite her loose fingers, Ran realized something.

“…Hmm.”

One of her red eyes turned blue.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

He was weak. arrow Despite his stubborn attempt, the boy just couldn’t escape from her hands. arctic It was shocking how Korin, who had looked so reliable and enormous in her eyes, was this weak.

“Look. airport He’s weaker than you think.”

‘Huh? atomic He is…’

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

“You are… in the wrong, oppa…

After laying him down on the bed, Ran licked the cold sweat falling down his cheeks. arena It was salty.

“Hmm… You are weak, huh. altitude Hehe, oppa is weak, huh.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

Recalling those disgusting red eyes of the woman as she openly sucked his blood for her to see made her feel unpleasant again. august She must have used oppa’s kind heart and begged for blood, and used that to threaten him into going out with her.

“Horrible…”

With a rugged breath, she gazed down at the boy beneath her. palette On his collarbone coming down from his shoulders was a trace left behind by that woman.

“It’s because you keep on looking at someone else and not me…”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Haa…”

Their faces drew closer in, to the point that their breaths were blowing into each other’s face.

Ran bit into the fang marks left behind on his neck. august She covered up the other woman’s teeth marks which made her feel a little better.

– Kaduk!

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

Her lips twisted in a bewitching manner. alien Guilt and hesitation… All of that crumbled into nothing in front of her greed.

“Oppa…”

Those pretty sunset-colored eyes of his were shaking from a myriad of emotions, but that didn’t stop her. artist She wouldn’t have even attempted anything if she was going to stop there.

His first is also mine.

The next morning, Hua Ran gave a benevolent smile while looking at the little baby in her arms.

After all, it was common sense that a stork would deliver a baby when a pair of male and female laid down on the bed and spent the night with their fingers locked.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

“……”

By utter coincidence, or perhaps because of a prank of a god, or even fate, the two girls woke up at the same time.

“……”

Marie and Hua Ran blankly looked at each other on top of the beds placed by the druids. antenna Their cheeks blushed in red as they then realized what they had been doing until now.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

Everything was so silent that even the crawling noise of a worm would echo inside the room. advance In the midst of that silence, the two girls silently shared a knowing gaze and nodded at each other.

“……”

Let’s forget it.

“……”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

“…Looks like you woke up.”

The two of them immediately realized that they had just experienced the most embarrassing moment of their life which only they were aware of.

Let’s forget everything that just happened.

However, there was another person in the room.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

“W, who might you be?”

“You…”

He was about to give some advice as an adult that something like that was no good no matter how strong of a conviction they had but… he soon decided to gloss over their embarrassing memories because if the two girls started a rampage out of embarrassment… Findias might be reduced to rubble.

“I am Uzkias, the guardian of this place, Findias. aspect Uhh… Kuhum!”

“If you are here to see Korin Lork, you were a little late.”

“…”

“What do you… mean?”

“They have already started climbing the tree to reach the sky. afford That was 3 days ago.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

“W, we were late, huh.”

“How did you know we were here to see Korin?”

Marie was in the middle of wondering whether they would be able to make it in time even if they started chasing after him now, but that was when she tilted her head after noticing something.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

“… I heard from Korin Lork and was waiting for you to arrive.”

Uzkias was not inconsiderate enough to tell the two girls that he had taken a glimpse into their illusions and had seen how the cause of their shady, treacherous and extreme decisions had been the same boy.

“…”

He decided to forget the embarrassing memories of the two girls… or rather the three girls and live on without questioning it.

Climbing a mountain wasn’t easy, especially when climbing an unfrequented mountain with no roads.

“Thank you for your kind help, spirits.”

How would you climb up the steep slope of a trunk? atomic Normally, the idea of climbing a tree all the way to the sky would sound very ridiculous and impossible.

Climbing the tree was actually not as hard as one would expect. legend Thanks to the help of the spirits guiding the way for Yuel and the oak tree twisting its own body to create a path with its branches, we were able to climb up an endless spiral staircase and reach the pinnacle where we were just below the clouds in just 3 days.

So how hard would climbing a tree be?

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

We were right beneath the clouds so we were probably about 8 kilometers aboveground, and it was thus very normal for her to be cold. anxiety I took off one of the coats I was wearing and threw it over Alicia.

“Ugh… It’s very cold.”

“But looking at the speed, I think we should be there in another 20 or 30 minutes,” I replied.

“We are still not there, it seems.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

I was in the middle of carving rune letters onto the tree with my spear when Yuel asked a question. antenna Even though she was a druid, she was still young and had been living elsewhere so she didn’t seem very familiar with the secrets of Findias.

“Korin. apple By the way, do you know what it is that’s on top of the clouds?”

“Aht… t, thank you.”

“We’ll be there in a bit. attic Hold on just a little bit more.”

Then what? album Is it really possible to just pick up the Sun with your hands?

“All the tests and trials we went through were for us to reach the sky. action It sounds straightforward but ambiguous at the same time.”

‘Reach the sky’.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

That might be the case if we were talking about a mythological story but this was different; we were talking about real life. acid Considering the distance between the planet and the sun, it was impossible to reach the Sun just by climbing up to the clouds.

“The 4 great treasures of the Dananns do exist.”

“Claiomh Solais is referred to as the Sun of Findias. album You know that, right?”

“I heard in fairy tales that it was one of the treasures of the old gods.”

The Magic of Murias, the Cauldron of Dagda.

Destiny Stone of Falias, Lia Fail.

The 4 great treasures that would have all ended up in the hands of Tates Valtazar were as follows:

And lastly, the Sword of Light, also known as the Sword of the Sun, Claiomh Solais of Findias.

Spear of Light of Gorias, Areadbhair.

But by going through the puzzles and solving the hidden pieces of information, it was possible to figure out where the treasures had been sealed.

Back in the original plot of the game when chasing after the final boss, Tates Valtazar, and his subordinates, the player would visit Gorias and Murias where all the treasures had already been taken out of.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Anyway, it’s normal for treasures to hide in secret lands, whether it be underground, aboveground… or even above the clouds.”

Those were just slabs of text that players would normally skim through during the game, but judging based on those points, it was possible to assume that the legends of Claiomh Solais were slightly exaggerated, and that it was within reach.

The magic cauldron of Murias was sealed deep underground, in a dark and bottomless pit filled with slithering snakes, whereas the Spear of Light was recorded to show itself along with the emission of light that came from the successful analysis of an old mechanical device, hidden deep inside a cave.

“Wahh…”

Soon, the oak tree soared through the clouds. amber Following the branches, we walked up to the world above the clouds and…

In front of us was a floating island.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 99: Sun Claiomh Solais (7) published by TrungTu Reads.

This was the true secret land of Findias, hiding in the clouds.

“Attention customers. echo We are about to reach our final destination, the floating island of Findias. portal The weather is looking very fine today but unfortunately, the natives of this land will be very hostile to us.”

“We do not have any visas, so it is time for us to smuggle inside.”

It was a large rocky island. orbit Jumping off of the oak tree that was touching the island, I continued while giving a deep gentleman bow.
