Chapter 3 - Chapter Three the hall and illusions

In the name of God, the most gracious, the most merciful

I'll write the third chapter, trying, like any writer, to write his chapter well. And it's also nice, my friends, to know a few things.

The power system will be explained as well as some things like meeting the hero as well as some things about the hero and also what Tendo will do and how the hero will meet Toshi and what the meeting method is.

How the relationship will be in short, quick chapters, but it will always be long. I will be there to make the chapter long so that you, the heroes, can enrich it with comments because I am eager for you to join.

Remember to leave a comment in the comments section to share the story and add it to your favorites. You can also join the WhatsApp or Telegram groups via the support section, if you wish. See you, my heroes and heroines.

--------------------

Suzuki quickly entered the academy after the man and girl disappeared. He saw no point in staying alone outside the gate.

After entering, he noticed many differences in the academy. Its style was a mixture of Japanese and Italian styles. The academy's space was spacious.

He took his first look at the statue inside the academy's reception hall, and looked at the images of the First Emperor, the First Exorcist, and the leader of the noble families, whom he had heard about from his grandfather. The statue was very tall, and it was located in the center of the hall where everyone could see it.

"Hey, isn't the new student here? Hello." A quiet voice came from behind Suzuki, causing Suzuki to quickly turn his gaze to him.

"Hey, no need to be suspicious, buddy," the voice said calmly, and Suzuki looked at him carefully. The young man appeared before Suzuki with green hair and equally green eyes behind black glasses with clear lenses.

He was wearing a green jacket, a white shirt, and green pants, standing in front of Suzuki with a calm smile. He was the same height as Suzuki, and his skin was pale. Suzuki was silent for a moment, then quickly said:

"Hello, I'm Toshi Suzuki. It's nice to meet you," Toshi said, greeting the person who had called him. "Hello, my name is Mizuki Gato," he said, extending his hand for Suzuki to shake.

After they both held each other's hands, they both felt the other's hand squeeze. They were surprised for a moment, but they quickly let go. Suzuki, embarrassed by his behavior, said, "Sorry, it's a silly habit to squeeze your hand."

Mizuki shook his hand as well and said, "There's no need to apologize. I know that whoever will study with me will be a strong person." Mizuki said with a smile.

After hearing his words, Mizuki felt relieved. This was good. Not all the guys in this place were like the white-haired girl he had fought outside. After sighing in relief, he said, "Still, I'm sorry if I used some force." He repeated it, refusing to get involved in another fight inside.

Without another word, Mizuki steps in front of Suzuki and says to him, "As if we're late, we should go into the lecture hall." He says calmly as he steps forward.

Suzuki followed him from behind and asked, "No one met us. How did you know? No one told me about the lecture hall." Mizuki laughed softly, enjoying Suzuki's words, and he said in a cheerful voice,

"This isn't something you're supposed to be told, but something you'll know as soon as you walk into this place. Don't you notice anything?" Mizuki Suzuki asked as she continued walking down the hall.

What could he have missed that he didn't notice? After thinking for a few moments about what he had missed and finding no result, he asked again, "What did I miss?" Mizuki asked in an unsure voice.

Mizuki replied, "From the start, you were accepted into this place just like me, so you should simply know that there is definitely a test before entering the class. It's something I heard from my father that is done at this academy."

Suzuki asked himself as he looked at the young man walking in front of him. "Are you saying we have to find the class ourselves?" he said quickly, his voice much calmer.

Mizuki clapped and said, "That's right, friend. Simply put, this place isn't ordinary." He said this as he looked around the hall. After he said that, a green spiritual energy began to emanate from his body.

Suzuki was cautious, but at the same time, he didn't feel a fighting aura from his spiritual energy, so he didn't react or understand why Mizuki was releasing his spiritual energy.

But after she left, the hall they were in began to curve as if it was changing. Mizuki said with a smile, "Look, Suzuki, that's what's happening in this place. This hall seems to interact with our spiritual energy, and the place and space itself seem to fade away and then return, as if we were in an illusion."

Suzuki looked at Mizuki's calm figure in this place and thought to himself,

This person seemed to be more competent than I had imagined. Contrary to what Mizuki had imagined, Suzuki sensed this from the moment he entered the hall amidst the illusion. The training had been very serious and intense, involving cooperation with many deception methods due to his spiritual energy problems.

So he trained himself to deal with things he couldn't handle if he had spiritual energy. These things were just illusions. He started looking around again and at Mizuki, and smiled at the young man in front of him.

"Great, Mizuki. Any ideas on how to get out of here and go to class?" Suzuki said with a smile, but that smile seemed to be stolen from Mizuki's face, as her smile froze.

Suzuki looked at Mizuki who froze and said, "What's wrong?" After saying that, Mizuki looked down at the ground and said, "I haven't found a way out yet. Even if my spiritual energy can dispel the void, it doesn't mean I can break through it. This illusion is too advanced."

After Mizuki explained the reason, his face turned red and he looked at Suzuki and said, "But there's still a case. Even if we can't destroy the illusion directly, there must be a spell that activates the illusion. If we can find it inside the illusion, we can get out." Mizuki said intelligently as he looked at Suzuki's figure standing beside him.

Suzuki smiled at him, thinking, "You're right. Honestly, we can get out quickly if we break the spell on the statue." Suzuki quickly realized this after arriving at this place.

There was a strange feeling emanating from that statue in the middle of the hall, which kept haunting Suzuki as he processed his thoughts. He didn't notice Mizuki's sharp gaze.

What are you looking at, Suzuki? Mizuki asked loudly, surprised by the question. Suzuki turned her gaze back to Mizuki and said, "I'm just looking at the statue."

After saying this, Mizuki froze for a moment and said in an uncertain voice, "Which statue are you talking about?" he wondered aloud as he looked at Suzuki.

Suzuki froze for a moment as he pointed at the statue. At the same time, Mizuki looked over, but saw nothing in the direction Suzuki had pointed in the hall.

Why can't he see the statue? That's a problem. It means that it's not just this statue that's causing this illusion; it's me who's the only one who can see it, and that could cause problems.

While Suzuki was processing a variety of things in his mind, Mizuki's mind was thinking in a way that Suzuki had never thought of.

He smiled secretly and said, "As expected of the Barrier Family, you were right to speak to him." He knew he couldn't get past this place with his strength alone. This illusion was too powerful for Gato Mizuki to comprehend, so when he recognized my persona, Toshi, he was very happy and quickly approached him.

But now he felt very relieved after learning that there was a huge difference in vision and simply attributed it to the Toshi family's ability to use barriers and did not think about other abilities.

But Toshi's mind, on the other hand, worked differently. He didn't use any techniques to identify the illusion, but simply saw where the statue's talisman was after ensuring that Mizuki couldn't see it like he could.

The location of the amulet was obvious, so he hurried over to the statue, leaving Mizuki behind. He placed his hand on the statue and tried to find the location of the amulet.

"Did you find it?" Mizuki asked, following Toshi's movements and trailing behind him. "No, I didn't find it," Suzuki said, trying to search the statue for a way to break the spell.

As for Mizuki, he watched Gata touch the void. He even tried to touch the place where Toshi had touched a moment ago, but his hand got stuck in the void.

He wondered if he was stuck in a mere illusion, or even a powerful one, because in truth, even illusions can't change reality or create something out of nothing. My inability to touch the things Toshi touches is proof of the power of this illusion and its effect on me.

Mizuki's face was terrified, but Suzuki, who was actively searching for the talisman's location, wasn't interested. Their focus was on finding it.

Ah, he finally sighed and made it to the classroom. He was surprised and happy to find no one, but a voice that came out of nowhere brought him back to his senses.

(Congratulations on being the first person to arrive in the classroom. Congratulations on being the first person.)

The voice was female, coming out of nowhere to Jin, telling him that he was the first to emerge from the illusion. This delighted Jin, who had been nervous since leaving the haunted house he had been in.

He sat peacefully in his seat, a cold sweat dripping from his face ever since he arrived here after being informed of his new assignment. Everything was more exhausting for him than ever.

He just remembers that he went to a lot of effort to deliver the production data for the new projects to his company president after a long night of working late and he still didn't see the need to repeat that experience and now he had to do the same thing but in a different way in another book

--------------------

After the blue screen disappeared, Jin was still lost in thought, swallowing his saliva after the trembling he had been experiencing after the blue screen appeared stopped.

That was a week before he discovered his identity in this world. He turned out to be a minor character in the exorcism world, named Tendo Jin, a renowned genius in the exorcism world and a top rookie.

One might wonder what the best beginner in the world of evil spirits means. This world consists of two people: one is an exorcist who works alone, i.e., finds a case, handles it, and earns money from the other by commissioning someone online.

Yes, there are a lot of people on the Internet who believe in evil spirits that can give you money just if you show them a very simple trick, like showing some kind of aura or holding cards up in the air without moving, simply any trick to make the person believe that you have special abilities.

He is simply a con man trying to steal from people and usually a small percentage of these people are the ones who have the real power but on the other hand there is the official exorcist who has the exorcist document

This document is issued by an institute after you have studied there. Everyone in Japan gives you a basic document upon entry, certifying that you are an official exorcist. After completing the exorcist courses, you can simply obtain the full document and become an official exorcist.

What's the benefit of this goodness? First, it gives you access to all the information related to spirit hunters. You can easily earn money by completing tasks assigned to you by guilds that specialize in spirit hunting or exorcising demons.

In addition to the freedom to move around using spirit portals for free from anywhere to expel evil spirits, which facilitates the process of moving around the world

All this privilege will be granted to whoever possesses this document. Well, he thought, he should be happy with such a talented young man, unlike the rest of the exorcists who deceive people and steal from them with petty tricks. I'm completely different, aren't I?

The answer is no, I don't say anything, and I was shocked when I discovered this fact. It turned out that the person I moved with was just a man with even worse luck than me. I was working for a black company that didn't care about its employees. At least I survived and made some money to live a happy life.

But for Jin Tendo, their lives were a magnet for disaster. When an ordinary person entered the garden, he not only found cursed coins that could manipulate his life and save him, but also handed them over as if he had simply found them through his own experience.

No ordinary person would go to a cemetery with the intention of exorcising evil spirits, find books on summoning demons, and hand them in to the guild office for money. No ordinary person would simply go and find quasi-spiritual animals and hand them in to the exorcist guild office.

Yes, simply put, Tendo Jin is just that man who faces all kinds of adversity, blindly trying to make any amount of money. In this world, the profession of Spirit Hunters has become hidden from the general public.

But there are still different guilds for different people on the internet, there are some people who are looking for some excitement about scary things and when they dig deeper they will find some sites that will compensate you with some money if you manage to find these things.

At first, Tendo, who discovered this site, was skeptical, but then he found cursed coins that brought bad luck, the bodies of cursed animals that turned into demonic beasts, and magical books in the graveyards. This man simply went to all the bad places, and thanks to his cursed luck, he discovered many things before they happened. The cursed coins didn't find people to curse, the animals didn't turn into demonic creatures, and he didn't pick up any black clouds from the books Tendo handed over to the association.

This wasn't enough. The man handed over everything he found and received money at a fraction of what he would have received had he had a document for that day. While he was handing over books on black magic...

Jin remembers how Tendo met this man and wants to curse him.

A year ago

Hello, are you Tendo Jin?

Yes, are you a member of the Ghost Guild? Would you like these books?

After Jin handed the books to the two men in black, the man in black looked at him and said,

You have a bright future, boy. How about getting your document and becoming an official Soul Hunter with the Society?

Tendo heard the man's words and decided to ignore them. He didn't want to join any religious sect. Making money was nice, but he didn't want to get into the details and get involved in the trap of fools. Who would waste thousands of yen just for books that looked old?

The man said, noticing that Tendo was not interested in his words, but he was noticing that he was holding the money he had handed him and said:

Joining the association means that the money you will receive will be much more than what you are receiving now.

These words caught Tendo's attention and made him look at the man and say, "You're not fooling me, are you?"

The man smiled and said to Tendo, "Why would I lie to you, boy? Take this card and this recommendation."

The man handed over the recommendation and a business card that had only one thing written on it (of the twelve symbols: the tiger).

Tendo looked at the paper with the twelve tiger symbols written on it, then looked at the man. He couldn't say a word, but he thought to himself, "Poor guy! Thinking he's a tiger, he writes it on his business card. Would I really register at such a place?"

He wanted to refuse, but the man's next words stopped him:

"You'll get a million for this book, not a few thousand yen," the man said. Tendo's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets as he screamed loudly.

You're not fooling me, are you, man? You're definitely not fooling me. He held the man's hand tightly as he looked into his eyes.

The man smiled at Tendo's greed and said in a sly voice that Tendo couldn't quite understand, "Our work is extremely difficult and thus the rewards are plentiful. Just trust that."

The man then easily removed the Tendo reading from his collar, arranged his clothes and looked at Tendo, "I wish you a good job opportunity, Tendo."

After that he walked away from Tendo's place and made him just look at the recommendation he got and without anything else that guy disappeared from there and never came back

at present

The man who reincarnated into Tendo's body, who saw these memories, wanted to severely beat Tendo for his involvement in them. Not only did this man die while searching for another book, causing me to reincarnate in his place, but at the same time...

"Thanks to him, I was able to join this dangerous place," he says, glancing around the classroom from the corner of his eye, "a place where there is no one and my son is forced to sit alone."

Thoughts that cut the door open

"Finally we're here. We were supposed to be first, weren't we?" said a childish voice of a green-haired young man. Behind him was another black-haired young man.

The black-haired man smiled at the green-haired man and looked at the class, but suddenly his eyes widened.

After a moment, the owner of the green café looked at my friend in the same direction, and there his cold gaze met mine, his cold blue eyes and blond hair. He was dressed in black, staring intently into them, his cold face devoid of any emotion. He closed his eyes after looking away from them.

But unlike the cold appearance of this young man in black clothes and blond hair, his lower body was trembling. "He's here, he's here, he's here." These words echoed in his mind.

The hero of the story and the hero of this world have finally arrived and met in the exorcist class and their first meeting was with a cold stare and shock

Hello friends, I know this chapter is long and contains little information. There's dialogue at the beginning that some might find silly, but I hope there's some dialogue, even if it's long in a shounen story.

More conversation and then they start working together.
