...
The white light faded away and Kieran found himself in a corridor.
A simple memory popped up in Kieran's mind.
"Teacher?"
Kieran muttered to himself, the profession that he felt was unreliable.
Compared to this profession, the detective and reporter jobs that he used to play were much more reliable.
After all, Kieran knew his own knowledge very well.
Although he worked hard in school, he was only at the level of a common middle school student. Plus, he dropped out of school and worked part-time, his true level would be lower than a common middle school student.
It would be a joke to ask him to teach a bunch of high school students.
That's right, high school students.
Saint Brilliant High School was a high school!
Moreover, according to that simple memory, this high school outfit was quite good.
Whether it was in terms of education or hardware, it was commendable.
"Am I supposed to teach them [Mystical Knowledge] when I am a teacher in this kind of place?
I might be treated as a lunatic if I opened my mouth. "
Kieran mocked himself with a smile and started to size up his surroundings.
On his left was a row of classrooms and on his right were windows.
The classrooms were just like what Kieran remembered, there was a front and back door and a class nameplate.
Through the window on his right, he could see the field.
There was a field in the middle and a running track outside.
Students in twos and threes were chatting and laughing as they walked through the field, heading out of the school.
Even though the setting sun shone on them, they were brimming with endless youthfulness and vigor.
Huu!
Kieran sighed.
If it weren't for his illness, he would probably be as carefree as these students.
But now?
Kieran grabbed his backpack and walked toward the teacher's office.
The background of the dungeon world did not explain much, but it clearly stated that the time was night.
According to the description, it was very likely that something bad would happen when night came.
It was already sunset. Kieran, who was no longer a newbie, would naturally not waste this precious time.
Kieran was confident in his own strength.
But that didn't mean he didn't need more information.
Disappointingly, the teacher's office was empty.
Kieran frowned.
Even if one had never eaten pork, one would have seen a pig run.
Kieran, who used to be a student, had the most contact with teachers.
He was very clear about the habits of his teachers.
Other than some special circumstances, most of the teachers wouldn't leave before the students, especially those who were in charge of class, they would only leave after all the students had left the school.
Now, before the students had even left, the teachers had already left.
"Is the school at night more dangerous than I thought?"
Kieran wondered and was ready to leave.
Although the teacher's office was empty, Kieran saw through the window that there was a guard at the school entrance. Similar to the teachers of Saint Brilliant, the guard would know something.
However, the moment Kieran turned around …
Tssk Gak!
An irritating, teeth-numbing screech later, the door that should have been opened was shut.
Not only the door, even the curtains were closed.
The room, which was not well-lit to begin with, instantly became dark.
Darkness filled the room.
Kieran was stunned.
Following his A + Intuition, even without activating [Tracking], Kieran could roughly sense the presence of wandering souls and evil spirits.
However, he didn't notice any of them just now.
He didn't even sense any negative energy.
It could be said to be very 'clean'.
"What the hell is this?"
Kieran activated [Tracking] with doubts lingering in his heart.
Still, he couldn't find anything.
Everything was normal under [Tracking]'s vision.
However, what Kieran saw was definitely not normal.
Fuuu!
A cold, gloomy wind came out of nowhere, fluttering Kieran's cape. The black crow feathers fluttered along with the wind, creating a sense of depth in the dark room.
Dak Dak Dak.
Clear footsteps came from behind him.
Kieran took a step forward without batting an eyelid and turned around abruptly.
Silence.
The clear footsteps vanished.
However, it only lasted for a second.
A second later, the footsteps sounded again.
It was still from behind him.
"Is it an illusion?
No, it can't be!
It's … "
A sudden guess rose in Kieran's heart.
In order to verify his guess, this time, Kieran didn't turn around but launched a kick behind him.
But …
The kick missed.
However, the footsteps behind him didn't go away, it still entered Kieran's ears clearly.
If it was just a guess before, now it was confirmed.
Kieran didn't even care about the footsteps behind him, he didn't even care that the door was shut, he just walked forward.
Then, Kieran went through the door and arrived at the corridor.
Kieran turned around and saw the teacher's office had returned to its original state.
"It really is an illusion!"
Kieran thought.
An illusion wasn't an illusion, it didn't require Spirit authentication.
All it needed was to be realistic enough to deceive those who saw and heard it.
Just like what Kieran did before.
However, a fake was still a fake. It might be able to deceive others for a while, but it would eventually be exposed, especially when it came across a player like Kieran.
Kieran quickly regained his senses after the initial shock.
He didn't believe that in his sixth dungeon run, he would run into something that could make him fall into an illusion without a sound.
His Spirit was SSS + rank after all.
With such a high level of Spirit, he had already surpassed other players of the same dungeon run, allowing him to clear the dungeon with ease.
So, after a little testing, Kieran noticed an inkling.
"But to be able to create such a realistic illusion …"
Kieran started to scan his surroundings.
He was searching for the person who created the illusion.
Bang!
A sudden heavy thud came from outside the academic building.
Kieran followed the sound and saw a body fall to the ground.
It wasn't just a bloody mess, but …
