Acquired the EX-class attribute ‘Transcendence Copy’

52 – Social Circles

Thump!

“Rachel and Flome were both beaten! Such a fool… !”

Black Rose Boss Van Roth.

He pounded the desk with a nervous expression.

The two captains of the Black Rose were killed in an instant. Even by academy students.

From Ross’ point of view, it was completely unbelievable.

“Why did this happen….”

Thinking about it again, I don’t understand. No matter how much the opponent was the daughter of the Swordhorn family, whose stock price was rising recently, it was an unreasonable story that both ‘cassowary’ and ‘white knight’ were beaten.

To be precise, Arsha Sword Horn didn’t kill both of the commanders. According to her men, ‘The White Knight’ was killed by a male student.

“Of course, two of the guards were killed when their movements were unusual. sh*t…. I guess I’ll have to live like a dead mouse for a while.”

The current forces of District 15 were in a situation where the Black Roses had driven out the guards, but I didn’t think that this type of terrain would continue forever.

No matter how much there is an ‘Assassination King’ behind the black rose, it is too risky for the guards to give up one area. The reason why they couldn’t take a strong gesture right away was because they hadn’t completed their grasp on the black rose.

“Damn it. I was going to take a proper hit and disappear, but things got messed up.”

“Yes. It looks very twisted.”

I muttered to myself, but there is an answer that comes back. Van Roth jumped up from his seat in surprise.

“Who are you!?”

From noble mtl dot com

“Hmm~ There’s someone in the royal capital who doesn’t recognize me. It’s been a while.”

“That, that voice can’t be….”

Ross raised his head, his brow twitching. A woman stands in front of him with arms crossed. As if she personified a sharp sword, she is a beauty exuding sharp momentum. In her unwavering eyes, she saw herself, full of bewilderment.

“Half-vampire… !”

“Oh my God. It’s been a long time since I’ve heard of annihilation.”

One of only three sword masters in the capital.

The head of the academy’s swordsmanship department, and a half-vampire.

The person who smiled meaningfully in front of Ross’ eyes was Flora Chepesch.

“Flora Tzepes! Why is a giant like you… ?”

“I heard that you bullied our academy students.”

That’s what Flora said, clapping her hands. Flora’s face was covered with a flawless smile, but Ross felt her heart beating fast.

“How did you find this place? I thoroughly hid it as an item… !”

Ross said, biting his lip. True to his words, Ross’ hiding place was hidden in a very secret place even in District 15. Even the guards couldn’t pinpoint his whereabouts.

“Was there an anonymous tip? Anyway, the liver is great. Aren’t you overconfident just because you’ve been bitten by the guards for a while? A crappy criminal organization like this would collapse if there was a little attention from the center.”

Ross couldn’t argue with Flora’s words. No matter how much the ‘Assassination King’ was said to be looking after her, it was an established fact that the Black Rose would collapse. Because the power of the center is strong.

The brief dominance of the Black Roses in the 15th Ward was only a temporary phenomenon taking advantage of the administrative vacuum, and Ross himself was well aware of that fact. Originally, Roth’s plan was to dominate District 15 for a while and profit from it, then run away. However, all those plans fell through.

“No will? You, if you are tried anyway, the death penalty will be confirmed, so wouldn’t it be neat to die here by my hand?”

Flora said with a smile. Ross gulped his saliva, weighing the possibilities in his head.

Of course, winning against a sword master is out of the question. What he calculates is the possibility of escape.

‘0 Percent….’

The calculation results were hopeless.

「Soul of the Butcher」 (Class A)

[Raising your senses, you can activate the ‘Search’ ability and ‘Living Detection’ ability. While the ‘Search’ ability is active, you are immune to ‘Confusion’ and ‘Illusion’ status ailments. While the ‘live detection’ ability is active, the evasion rate is increased by 100%. In addition, you can use the ‘Giant Killing’ skill once during attribute activation. Attribute activation has a cooldown of 24 hours and consumes mana every second.

: Applicable only to bosses. Skills or normal attacks are applied as 100% fixed damage. When the critical hit effect is activated, the power of the attack increases by 100%.]

Arsha’s copy of 「Hunter’s Legacy」, 「Soul of the Butcher」 Was also a morale trait.

Originally, in addition to the ‘Search’ ability included in 「Hunter’s Legacy」, The ability called ‘Living Detection’ was added. The ‘living detection’ ability doubles the evasion rate, and it was a perfect match for me, a thief class. In addition, the special skill ‘Giant Killing’ was also a great skill.

‘It’s not even a pity that it can only be used on bosses. Originally, most of these skills were only for boss fights.’

This is a skill that allows you to 100% true deal against the boss. Usually, bosses have extremely high physical defense or magic resistance. For that reason, it is a natural procedure to take a water pipe or a demon pipe for a boss battle. By the way, if you have this skill, you can insert 100% of the deal without any material or magic.

‘Of course, it’s limited to 1 shot, so I need to take care of the penetration setting, but anyway, even considering that, it’s a powerful skill.’

S-Class Attribute ⸢Owner of the Golden Dawn⸥ Although it does not reach, it is a good enough Attribute. Very satisfied.

“John-kun~! Would you like to go around the circle together after class today!?”

During class, Ellie spoke to me like that.

“Good. Are you going with Sierra?”

“Muhhhhh~! Surprisingly not! Today is a special date for me and Yohan!”

I was taken aback by Ellie’s words.

“Does Sierra fall for you?”

“These days, Ms. Sierra is receiving special tutoring from Professor Reina. I think she has a special desire to be strong. Even in the dormitory, she always trains, trains, and trains again. I live only with water lilies! You have a great girlfriend!”

“Hmm. Having a strong desire to improve is commendable.”

Certainly, Sierra’s skills are terrifyingly rising. It may be because of her Sierra’s character, her 「Twilight Empress」, But without her own will, such a large rise is impossible.

“Anyway, that’s why today Yohan-kun and I are looking around the circle~! You said before that we should go out alone without Miss Sierra. It’s not going out, but I’m going on a date with Yohan this way.”

Ellie looked at Sierra and she said so.

“Well, that’s how it works.”

“More than that, Yohan-kun. What happened to Arsha? I’m worried~!”

“Yes, four!?”

Suddenly, Arsha’s name came out of Ellie’s mouth.

What is it?

How do you know?

“Keukkeuk! Yohan-kun, don’t you take a woman’s intuition and intelligence too lightly? You haven’t forgotten who I am, have you?”

“You are the cutest mascot of Janet’s top, Ellie.”

“You know well~! Information power is the same as basic physical strength for merchants! They say Miss Arsha is learning how to cook by herself these days. Who is it for?”

I readily acknowledged the words of Ellie, who burst into laughter like a goblin.

“We went as far as kissing.”

“As expected! Demon~! Pervert~! Poor quality!”

If it was me in my previous life, I would have suffered tremendous damage from every single word, but not at all now. Customizing Yohan’s face like this was a damn good thing no matter how you think about it.

“Hmmm! My dream is to become a harem master.”

“Whoops! Yohan is getting more and more interesting.”

That’s how the department class ended. As Ellie said, Sierra went to take lessons from Professor Reina. You are really eager.

“Miss Sierra. It’s amazing. When I look at it from the side, I automatically think that the woman I love can be that strong.”

Ellie said with a grin. And she added in a very small voice, ‘Can I be like that?’ Let’s pretend we didn’t hear the back story.

“Ms. Ellie. Where are you going to see today?”

According to the regulations, academy students must join one circle unconditionally. Duplicate registration is not possible, and it is impossible not to join any circle.

In-game, the circle is the location of various events. Also, there are quite a few useful items or hidden pieces that can be obtained from circles, so joining a circle well is a very important factor in gameplay.

First-year students must decide which club they want to join within one month of admission. So, until then, I freely look around various circles.

“Did you tour the craft circle the other day? There, it seemed fine. I liked that there were no high-nosed nobles~!”

“Anyway, nobles don’t fit into crafting circles. But Miss Ellie doesn’t seem to fit in well with a place like that.”

“Right~! I am confident that I can do well in selling art, but I am not confident in making it!”

“Where are you planning to visit today?”

“hehehe! Don’t be surprised! I am thinking of looking at the ‘Red Lake’!”

Red Lake

The academy’s only social circle.

Befitting the name of a social circle, most of the circle members are either nobles or commoners who are serious about moving up the ranks.

“Because I don’t think there’s a better place to make friends than there. I also obtained super-special information that Miss Sarah Leoris and Miss Arsha Swordhorn, the first year bigwigs, are considering going to the Red Lake~!”

Ellie chatted happily. Naturally, our steps headed towards the main building of Red Lake Circle.

“I see it over there! After all, a super luxurious social circle! The interior of the main building is different from other buildings. Huh? By the way, why are people so crowded?”

Ellie pointed at the lobby and said. As Ellie said, the lobby was crowded like a cloud. I can hear people groaning from here.

“Something seems to have happened.”

An interesting smell wafted through the air.
