The Orientation

Yoon Yul was a case of impulsive contracting with a Constellation.
In fact, many curse-casters were like that.
Because they were made of negative emotions.
He neither particularly admired nor liked hunters.
He was a rational person who would rather become an ordinary office worker than fight monsters at the risk of his life, only having the impression of ‘they make a lot of money. I’m jealous.’
So he didn’t think he would be chosen by a Constellation.
And he certainly didn’t expect the catalyst to be a flying monster that had suddenly appeared, unable to be removed, at the hospital where his mother was admitted for an examination.
It was just a short examination.

“Yul, run away!”
His mother had said, and then she was torn apart by the monster.
After that, Yoon Yul and his mother were rescued by the hunters who had barely arrived.
But even after that, he couldn’t erase the impression that that monster would come back to life.
He wanted to kill it himself.
His mind was filled with such thoughts.
If it were me, I could surely kill it.
I could.
His mother has been unconscious ever since.
It was diagnosed as a mental wound that even potions couldn’t heal.
If only I had handled it well, my mother wouldn’t have become unconscious.
It was then that a hand reached out.

[The Constellation, The Dawn’s Confirmation Kill, proposes a contract.]
[Will you make a contract?]
I want to kill that thing.
I want to kill anything.
If it’s me, I can do it for sure.

[The contractor Yoon Yul acquires the ‘unique skill: The Blade from the Farthest Place’!]
With such an impulse, he accepted the contract and became a curse-caster.
But that was the end of it.
With a body judged as F-rank, he couldn’t save, revive, or kill anyone.
The only thing he could do was enter the Crow Guild under a s*ave contract and pay for his mother’s hospital bills.
He was kicked out of the Crow Guild he had entered like that when The Crow’s Ruins fell, and he had applied to the Nate Guild, clutching at straws, because he needed money.
He hadn’t expected to be chosen.
A gloomy low voice was heard.
“Maybe you made a mistake choosing me…”
“No, if we didn’t choose you, those two wouldn’t be here either.”
“If I hadn’t chosen you, I would have been a human, not a Constellation.”
“But Seonibaek would have still not let him go even if she were human, right?”
“That’s true.”
Yoon Yul blinked at the sudden shower of compliments.
The lowest grade among the three, and an F-rank at that, which was no different from an ordinary person.
With that judgment, he had entered the Crow Guild almost as a s*ave, doing various errands and acting as a porter.
But now that a Constellation and a Magic Tower Head were praising him, he began to feel a little suspicious.
‘Isn’t it a lie?’
Snap.
The sound of a finger snapping was heard.
Daisy gathered their attention.
“You’re curious why we chose you, right? I’ll tell you about your future.”
The selection criteria were simple.
The amount of mana must be high for their grade.
This also includes potential mana that is not detected by the measuring device.
The soul must be pure.
It sounds like some kind of cult missionary, but the purer the soul, the higher the person’s talent limit.
In that sense, these three passed.
“Kim Seoah. Was C-rank, but will be upgraded to A-rank. Will grow into an all-rounder who can handle three types of dolls for tanking, dealing, and healing. The possibility of a special upgrade to S-rank according to a consultation with the Hunter Association will also be considered.”
“Huh?”
The three of them opened their eyes wide, as if they hadn’t expected an S-rank to come out from the beginning, and their suspicion deepened.
But what can you do.
The express train had already departed, and there was no stop to get off.
“Lee Won. Was D-rank, but will be looking at B-rank or higher. Will function as a milestone, being confirmed as the first case of fulfilling his potential as a magic swordsman. The possibility of a special upgrade to A-rank according to a consultation with the Hunter Association will also be considered.”
“…Muh-huh?”
A foolish sound came out of his mouth.
I looked at them, who were becoming dumber one by one, with a smirk.
“And Yoon Yul…”
Daisy, who had been looking back and forth between Yoon Yul and me with a complicated expression, looked at me again with eyes that said, ‘Should I say it, or not’.
I nodded my head in permission.
“…Upgraded from F-rank to S-rank.”
At those words, Yoon Yul’s mouth dropped open.
“You don’t even have to do anything. You’re a case that will do well on its own once the path of mana is opened. You’ll become a unique figure in the world as a curse-caster. At the same time, you’ll be a signal that shows how far curse-casters can go.”
“W-wait a minute.”
Yoon Yul, with his stiff body, flailed his hands and approached Daisy.
He looked at Daisy and me with suspicious eyes and said in a slightly trembling voice.
“S-rank? Me? M-Magic Tower Head-nim. And Constellation-nim. I don’t know if you know this because you’re in a high position, but that’s…!”
“He’s a very precious talent even for a Constellation. I know too.”
I took over the words for Daisy.
I said roughly while eating the homemade cookies that Yeon Taeseon had brought over like a ghost.
But there was no lie.
Just look at the high-rank Constellation, The Crow’s Ruins, he had even sent down Lilac, who had become a part of his soul, to whine about returning his only S-rank, Han Siyoon.
That’s how precious, untouchable, and important S-ranks were.
“But it’s really possible.”
My Sun’s Eye sees the mana of the gloomy, lanky man.
Mana usually stays inside a person’s body and rarely flows out.
But his purple, flickering mana…
Was burning brightly like a flame, reaching up to the ceiling.
‘That much, is it comparable to when I first went to the Lexas Empire?’
Meaning, his potential is the same as a Constellation’s when they were human.
Of course, you can’t become a Constellation just by having a lot of mana, but for now.
“I know it’s suspicious.”
Daisy took over.
“It hasn’t been long since I came to this world, but my appearance is no different from a human’s. I know that everyone is suspicious of me and Seonibaek… I mean, the Silent Calamity.”
Yoon Yul, who had been hit on the mark, hung his head.
He seemed to be worried about what kind of disadvantage would befall him.
“But.”
A gentle breeze blew.
Even though there were no windows here, the wind gradually grew stronger, and finally, it shook his hair.
A golden color was at his feet, above his head, in front of his eyes…
A huge magic circle covered all directions.
“We were magicians before we were Magic Tower Heads, before we were Constellations, and we are researchers who have proven everything by turning theory into results.”
“We’re very used to suspicion.”
Especially me.
When I magically implemented the knowledge from another world, the words I always heard were ‘that’s ridiculous’.
Meaning, even if you say the same thing, it won’t have much of an impact.
“So I’ll prove it.”
“One month.”
A calm and clear voice rang out.
I said.
“I’ll raise your grade by two stages in one month.”
It was a declaration of war.

The three were half-in-doubt, but the train had already departed and they couldn’t get off.
We decided to each take charge of one person.
Including Yeon Taeseon, who had said to gather talents.
“Is the orientation over?”
“Yeah. Sorry to keep you waiting. So, please take a look at Lee Won.”
Yeon Taeseon, who had been leaning against the wall and looking this way as if bored, was called over like a servant.
He, who moved immediately as if he were used to it, went in front of Lee Won and said bluntly.
“You need to learn how to hold a sword first.”
“I want to hold a longsword…”
“That’s not bad either, but you’re more of a greatsword wielder.”
Daisy walked over to Kim Seoah with a leisurely gait.
“I’m an expert in doll magic. You’ll have to work really hard.”
“Yes! But will I really become an S-rank?”
“If you work hard? Of Course, my disciple. Let’s go. Take out your doll first.”
And I…
Stood in front of Yoon Yul.
“…”
“Hello.”
I looked up at Yoon Yul, who was much taller than me, and greeted him.
He seemed to be feeling a great sense of pressure at the thought of being taught by a Constellation, not just anyone else.
“E-even if I can’t do it, as long as there’s no divine punishment…”
“I told you, I don’t do that.”
Do I look like some kind of crow?
I just stared at Yoon Yul’s uncontrollable purple mana, then raised my white mana and wrote in the air.

[Yoon Yul]
Two letters were engraved in the air.
“Our first goal is…”
“Yes.”
“Dictation with mana.”
“What?”
A dumbfounded response came back.
I smiled brightly with a slightly amused feeling.
“Congratulations on becoming a first grader. Student Yoon Yul. Let’s run all the way to a master’s degree in graduate school.”
For the record, my first disciple, Lilac, had an average of 2 hours of sleep per day when he was learning.
Let’s see you die.
