I Became the Student Council President of Academy City-Chapter 119

"Hahaha!! Let’s do this!!" Goliath cut Woo-jin off with a roar, launching himself forward with a leap.

"Can’t you at least let me finish...!" Woo-jin frowned, chasing after him.

Whoosh!

Se-ah’s red eyes began to glow menacingly once more.

But in that moment—

Crack!

"……!"

Se-ah gasped in surprise.

Before her, a spatial rift appeared, and Woo-jin and Goliath both vanished into it, retreating into the subspace just as her eyes flared with power.

Both men had the protection of the Golden Goat. Moreover, Woo-jin already knew that Goliath could travel through his rifts, something he had learned in the first semester.

Goliath, for his part, had anticipated that Woo-jin would support him, so he moved confidently, seemingly ignoring Woo-jin’s warning but, in truth, fully trusting him.

Crack!

Behind Se-ah and to her left, new rifts suddenly opened. Woo-jin and Goliath shot out of them like bullets.

Se-ah’s powers, which sent opponents to the Otherworld, faltered in the face of their swift and coordinated assault.

Crackle!

Woo-jin’s Cheolryong-gon, crackling with teal lightning, and Goliath’s enormous fist, wrapped in a powerful gravitational field, simultaneously struck.

Boom!

The explosive impact of the electric shockwave and the gravitational force shattered Se-ah’s body, sending her flying like a ragdoll.

The destructive arc of Goliath’s punch created a powerful gravitational shockwave that dented and pierced the thick walls of the Central Tower.

Se-ah was thrown out of the building, sent hurtling far into the distance.

'Even with that kind of power, you’re not invincible,' Woo-jin thought, recalling the original storyline.

In the original story, Se-ah had died. If her death had been at Baek-seo’s hands, it was likely that Se-ah had been assassinated without even realizing it.

No matter how powerful Se-ah’s abilities were, they were not truly hers.

Se-ah was still human.

That meant she could be defeated.

Besides, with both Woo-jin and Goliath able to teleport at will, even Se-ah wouldn’t be able to handle them easily.

Whoosh!

As Se-ah’s body flew through the air, crimson mana suddenly wrapped around her.

Then, something unnatural happened.

Her body, which had been flying away, abruptly stopped and began to reverse course, like a video playing in reverse.

Swish!

Crimson mana filled Se-ah’s form once again, rapidly healing the fatal injuries she had sustained.

"……!"

Boom!

At the same time, a sudden shockwave erupted from the spot where Se-ah had been moments before she was struck.

Woo-jin and Goliath, caught off guard, raised their arms to shield their faces as the shockwave slammed them into the walls of the Central Tower.

The force was relatively weak. It merely knocked them back without causing significant harm.

In other words, it wasn’t an attack.

'I see...,' Woo-jin thought.

It was an extremely unnatural phenomenon.

He recalled what Geumyang had explained about Se-ah’s powers and began to understand the basic principle behind them.

'She erased the fact that we hit her, altering reality so that she merely leaped out of the building.'

Her unique ability, Destiny Recalibration.

Magic Formula Type 1: Causal Replacement.

'She’s outright ignoring the laws of the world.'

It was truly a power beyond reason.

Even in a world filled with fantastical abilities, Woo-jin now understood why Geumyang had said that Se-ah’s power defied all common sense.

To defeat Se-ah, they would need to either knock her unconscious in one strike or kill her instantly.

The recent surprise attack by Woo-jin and Goliath had been effective but had not completely overwhelmed Se-ah. The Otherworld’s power had protected her.

"Hah...!"

Se-ah frowned, her body now fully healed.

"You two are strong, as expected…."

It had taken a coordinated assault by the two strongest fighters in Neo Seoul, and even then, Se-ah couldn’t avoid injury completely.

"I guess I’ll have to go all out, then."

Se-ah smiled slyly, spreading her arms wide.

Behind her, a crimson ring of mana appeared, and numerous human-shaped figures made of red energy extended outward, forming wings.

Whoosh! As her wings flapped, powerful gusts of wind rippled out.

An eerie, radiant glow began to emanate from Se-ah.

"What... is that?"

"Freakish…"

Se-ah floated in the center of the Central Area, drawing the attention of everyone nearby.

Journalists, who had been capturing footage from a distance, zoomed in with their cameras to record the eerie light radiating from Se-ah.

Civilians, watching from their windows or via live streams, gawked in shock at the unearthly spectacle.

"It’s like… that’s not the power of one person. It feels like the energy of a multitude…," the president of Saein High’s student council muttered.

The mana surrounding Se-ah carried the life force of many people.

A terrifying aura spread across Neo Seoul.

Anyone ranked 5th tier or higher could immediately sense how grotesque and unnatural that red mana was.

Something that should never have existed had revealed itself to the world.

Bam! Bam!

In response, Dohwa’s brainwashed soldiers, who had been lying in wait, leaped into action. Their eyes glowed red, a sign of their enslavement to Se-ah’s will.

Crimson rings and wings, smaller in size but similar to Se-ah’s, manifested behind the soldiers.

They formed a defensive perimeter around Se-ah. A sickening aura crawled up Woo-jin’s spine.

"So, she brought fifty soldiers, huh…!"

Standing in front of the gaping hole in the wall, Woo-jin and Goliath stared at Se-ah and her soldiers.

"You think you can take me on with just that?! You pathetic trash, don’t underestimate me…!"

"Watch out for their eyes. They might all have the same power as Se-ah."

"Hmph! No need to explain…! I’m already aware…!"

"Good, then."

Woo-jin extended his right arm toward Se-ah, while Goliath stretched out his left. Mana infused with their respective abilities surged from their hands.

Crack!

"……!"

A massive rift appeared in the sky once more.

Another crack formed in the ground below. Debris, rubble, and soil from the destroyed structures flowed into the crack.

Everything fell toward the sky.

Boom!

But that wasn’t all.

A powerful gravitational force emerged from the rift Woo-jin had created in the sky. As a result, the falling debris accelerated, and the smaller fragments became as deadly as bullets.

At the same time, Goliath skillfully infused the debris with intense gravity. Anything that touched those fragments would be crushed and destroyed.

Each falling piece of debris had become a lethal weapon.

Anyone within Woo-jin’s Heaven’s Subjugation field was guaranteed instant death.

But Se-ah wasn’t going down that easily.

"Are you trying to wipe me out all at once because I might be dangerous?"

Despite the overwhelming gravitational force trying to pull her down, Se-ah floated effortlessly in the air. Her crimson mana created a force that countered the pull of gravity.

Her unique ability, Destiny Recalibration.

Magic Formula Type 2: Law Reconfiguration.

Se-ah had rewritten the natural laws to oppose the gravitational force generated by Goliath’s magic.

"That attack is beyond my reach…."

Se-ah couldn’t manipulate the gravity that Goliath had unleashed on such a massive scale. No matter how powerful her authority was, her body couldn’t handle the density of the mana Goliath was wielding.

It was a testament to how overwhelmingly strong Goliath was.

The soldiers, though protected by Se-ah, couldn’t completely avoid the effects of Goliath’s gravity. Their movements were hindered.

Crack! Boom!

Dozens of cracks formed around Se-ah, and from them, gigantic lightning bolts shot toward her.

Se-ah sensed the cracks’ angles and positions in advance and managed to dodge, but the lightning relentlessly pursued her, zigzagging through the rifts.

Eventually, Se-ah extended her hand toward the oncoming lightning.

Swish!

Suddenly, the spatial lightning reversed direction, fizzling out soon after. Its path had been altered.

Once again, Magic Formula Type 2: Law Reconfiguration.

'Her recalibration ability… What’s the condition?' Woo-jin thought as he teleported through the falling debris.

'In the first semester, she used it on people who had died to manipulate the fact that they had been killed. Now, she’s using it to counter my lightning and the debris. She hasn’t done anything to me or Goliath directly, though, so contact isn’t a requirement.'

Woo-jin quickly arrived at a conclusion.

'She can’t use it on living beings.'

It seemed unlikely that she would be able to manipulate either him or Goliath anytime soon.

'She can’t touch my spatial jumps either… Maybe it’s because she can’t handle the mana within the wormhole?'

The wormhole he traveled through for teleportation, as Geumyang had once explained, was a realm densely packed with an extraordinary amount of mana.

Even Se-ah’s powers likely couldn’t cope with it.

Crack!

Woo-jin and Goliath teleported through new cracks, instantly closing the distance between themselves and Se-ah.

From both sides, they aimed their Cheolryong-gon and fists at her.

The moment they closed in, Dohwa’s soldiers rushed in to shield Se-ah, taking the blows in her place.

Boom!

The soldiers were flung backward with incredible force, crashing into various parts of the Central Tower.

Meanwhile, Se-ah extended her arms toward Woo-jin and Goliath. Crimson mana surged forward, silently creeping toward them like an assassin.

A sense of danger pricked at Woo-jin’s spine.

Reacting swiftly, he activated a rift he had prepared for emergencies, escaping into the subspace along with Goliath.

"Hmm…. I hate to say this to you, Senior, but you’re like a rat. I could’ve finished this just now."

The power of the Otherworld.

Genetic manipulation.

Had they been caught by that, both Woo-jin and Goliath’s bodies would have twisted into grotesque shapes.

Dohwa’s soldiers, their crimson wings spread wide, swarmed after Woo-jin and Goliath whenever they reappeared from the cracks, engaging them in fierce combat.

Every time Se-ah flew toward Woo-jin, another intense battle would break out.

Se-ah, now fully enveloped in crimson mana, had greatly enhanced her physical abilities. Even a light swing of her arm caused a violent tearing sound, sending shockwaves that struck Woo-jin with crushing force.

Her power far exceeded the 7th tier. Woo-jin felt the bones in his body breaking from the sheer impact.

But whenever Woo-jin was in danger, Goliath would leap in, his gravity-infused punches sending Se-ah flying away.

Debris rained down on Se-ah, infused with even more mana and speed, making it impossible for her to deflect them using her law-rewriting ability.

Each time, Se-ah flapped her wings, dodging swiftly.

Conversely, whenever Goliath was in trouble, Woo-jin would create a rift to pull him out or unleash several spatial lightning bolts to strike Se-ah.

"You two are really in sync, aren’t you?"

Amid the fierce and destructive battle, Se-ah scoffed in frustration.

Meanwhile, Dohwa’s soldiers relentlessly attacked Woo-jin and Goliath.

'All of them have physical abilities similar to Se-ah’s.'

Se-ah, using the power of the Otherworld, possessed physical capabilities far beyond the 7th tier.

The soldiers she controlled were no different. While not as strong as Se-ah herself, they posed a significant threat with physical abilities comparable to the 7th tier.

Splurt!

However, as the battle dragged on, the soldiers’ bodies began to split and bleed, unable to fully handle the power they wielded.

Their expressions remained emotionless.

They showed no signs of pain or hesitation.

They were nothing more than marionettes.

Fighting off a horde of such opponents was proving to be overwhelming for Woo-jin.

Crack!

Woo-jin and Goliath slipped into another rift, entering the same wormhole.

Woo-jin had intentionally brought Goliath along with him.

"Huff, huff…."

Woo-jin clutched his broken ribs, gasping for breath.

"Fighting while avoiding eye contact is harder than I thought."

There’s a saying that the eyes are the windows to the soul.

In all his previous battles, Woo-jin had relied on subtle changes in his opponent’s eyes and facial expressions to predict their movements.

But now, against Se-ah and her soldiers, he couldn’t afford to make eye contact.

On top of that, Se-ah’s physical strength was so overwhelming that even a simple swing of her arm generated winds strong enough to crush bones.

Without even trying, she could deliver devastating blows, making it difficult for Woo-jin to keep up with her movements.

Se-ah’s attacks were too much for even someone with 7th-tier abilities to withstand.

"Hehehe…!"

Goliath, though injured as well, grinned, thoroughly enjoying the fight.

"Isn’t this fun? When will you ever get to experience something like this again? This is a refreshing challenge! Hahaha!!"

"You’re such an annoying bastard, but I guess it’s good you’re staying positive."

Woo-jin chuckled.

"If we don’t stop Se-ah, it’s over. She’s revealed her power, and there’s no way she won’t make her move. She’s definitely planning something."

"I know…! I have no intention of losing. I will personally take down that trash…!"

Goliath grinned, cracking his knuckles. His fighting spirit was burning brighter than ever.

"They said they’d try to do something about Se-ah’s power source on the other side. I don’t know if they’ll succeed, but we have to hope for the best."

"If all else fails, I’ll use my trump card…!"

"Yeah, go ahead and go wild. I’ll cover you."

"You’ll cover me?"

Goliath raised an eyebrow, intrigued by Woo-jin’s words.

"And you cover me."

"Hehehe! You cheeky brat… You say interesting things…!"

"Let’s go."

Woo-jin and Goliath charged through the wormhole, emerging once again to confront Se-ah.
