Academy Life of a Career Hypnotist

Episode 84. all rounder (1)

What was the element that I always made a fuss about?

The world is doomed without a hero. Since the main character is gone, I need to take the place of him.

What is the reason for this saying?

‘That’s because the Psychic Age didn’t leave players to rest.’

Psychic Age was a Bondi game. And we had to stick to the first principle that games should make the player happy in some way.

If the progress of the story is loose, adversity is given, or if the story is too tense, strange or playful happenings are created to evoke the atmosphere.

That game was superimposed on reality.

What this means.

‘The incident will happen soon.’

The Meteor Shower Qualifiers do not always proceed peacefully. Shin So-ra’s 3rd loyal subjects, led by Jung Kyu-min, did not belong to the axis of crisis.

In the Psychic Age, crises were often accompanied by problems directly related to someone’s life.

‘But there’s no need to worry right now.’

The event I’m concerned about happens on the ninth day. Now you just have to pay attention to the test in front of you.

It went smoothly until the 4th day.

A test to check the ability of adults to use topographical features through the facilities of the outdoor training ground. It was a test in which participants were thrown into a specific environment and their ability to improvise was tested.

It wasn’t particularly difficult up until this point. Because it is a section to check the basic specifications of adults.

My dormitory roommate, who was personally curious about when he would drop out. Oh Myung-jun somehow managed to pass safely until the 4th day.

‘Could Myeong-jun be able to safely pass the 5th day?’

The real thing is the 5th day that will be held tomorrow. Among the students, it was a date called the ‘evil section’.

If the 1st to 4th days were the section to filter out the idiots, the 5th day can be said to be a full-fledged selection process.

――――――!

Noise from large speakers. The instructor, who had been testing the microphone by blowing into it, finally opened his mouth.

“From the 5th to the 7th, the test against Monstrum will be held! It will be held at the augmented reality training ground, so everyone get ready to move!”

Augmented reality training ground. It was the same huge training ground where joint classes were held in the early days of Signal.

In the same group, he met the three main heroines of Psychic Age, and furthermore, it was the place where he realized that the original protagonist, Yuseong, did not exist in this world. It was a place of deep connection in many ways.

“Before taking the test, keep in mind one thing! It’s not just about passing the ordeal you’re prepared for! This test is a time for self-introduction. I have this nature and will be useful in one way or another in the contest… So that I can personally appeal to you!”

In this test, the instructor further explained that the situation would be staged so that one could actively utilize one’s abilities, such as the stage and situation suitable for one’s position, and the type of entity in the monster room.

The 5th day is an individual test, and the position I participated in. The content of the test as a dealer was very simple. If an enemy appeared in front of me, I literally just had to crush it and it was over.

‘In the Meteor Shower, firepower was considered the most important thing for dealers.’

Firepower was not the same firepower. Depending on which attack method is preferred, scoring appropriate to the field is individually applied.

Whether it’s heavy firepower that can inflict a big blow against a single enemy, wide-area firepower that can attack multiple enemies at the same time, or long-range firepower that can feed Yuhota to enemies from a distance.

On Day 5, you’ll often find situations that require that kind of firepower. Even if you are not confident in the field, you have to show your good side by demonstrating your own strength.

“Kuk!”

Shak shak! Shashashashak!

A thin, piercing sound resonated in my ears.

Currently, the monster I encountered at the test site was a monster called ‘Painless Hornet’. It looks like a wasp at first glance, but it has the characteristic of firing poisonous needles through its mouth.

If you get hit by that stinger, your skin will be extremely itchy. That said, it wasn’t that it was life threatening. Is it a bit more itchy than a mosquito bite?

‘Even the speed at which the poison needles fly is not that fast. Is it roughly the level of arrows flying by the standard when an ordinary person holds a bow?’

The flapping of the wings of the Painless Hornet has a very strange frequency. Listening to it, it strangely caused such an unpleasant noise that scratched people’s nerves.

And that’s not all. When the guy receives a strong shock from the outside, his body explodes, and then gas blows out in all directions.

When the skin comes in contact with the gas, it causes itching like when you are hit by a poison needle.

‘The very existence itself is a monster that was born to piss off opponents.’

And that was a fact, not my speculation. Monstrum is not a creature that was suddenly born.

He is said to be the worst demon in the entire world and is also the head of the Septagram. A saint with the power of “Diablo”, the nature that creates Monstrum.

As he was a creature created by ‘Rogers’, all of Monstrum could be said to be a living being with intentional biological abilities because of his will.

“Suck!”

A Painless Hornet flies toward me. He kicked the floor and took a big step back.

They fire poison darts at mid-range, and if they get out of hand, they launch a suicide commando strategy. Literally, it’s trying to self-destruct by crashing into its own body.

I looked around. Currently, there are a total of 12 monsters surrounding me. It was only the Painless Hornet.

and.

“As expected, your combat skills are boring.”

There were personnel watching me not far from here.

An adult healer and an examiner on standby in case a participant student is injured. There was also one assistant, as expected. It was Kwak Min-ki, one of Shin So-ra’s three loyal subjects.

‘If Shin So-ra had participated in the Meteor Shower, he would have been the one to go see Shin So-ra.’

It seems that he prioritized watching my performance over Shin So-ra’s, perhaps because the medicine went up the other day. Of course, he probably didn’t come to cheer them on, but he must have come to see if there’s any room for faults.

“As expected, you must have been quite taken aback when Iljin Monstrum, in charge of you, appeared.”

From nob le mt l. com

Judging from the way he spoke, it seemed that his influence had a great influence on the selection of the Painless Hornet.

‘It’s definitely a very annoying Monstrum for me.’

Adults who use spirit-type natures require more delicate concentration when exercising their abilities than other adults. In that sense, the Painless Hornet, whose existence itself is a stress release machine, was its natural enemy.

That was the case under the assumption that he was an adult of a general mental system.

what am i

‘If that’s the case, then I have no choice but to trample on that intention, right?’

The warm-up seemed to be enough.

Now is the time to show it to Kwak Min-gi.

While avoiding the attacks of the Painless Hornet, I stopped at some point.

“What are you doing? Can’t you avoid it if you stand so far away?”

When a participant student is taking the test, if he or she does not understand the content of the test properly or does not solve it well, the assistant’s role is to encourage, point out weaknesses, and provide direction.

But could he be considerate of that? I thought of pointing out my flaws aside from everything else, so all I could see was a smiley face.

Awesome!

Instead of Astrolabos, I drew a dagger for close-quarters self-defense and cut off the head of the Painless Hornet that was attacking me.

If you try to kill them in the form of a blow, your body will explode, but as you can see, if you cut off the neck neatly like this, you will die as it is without a chance to explode.

“her? I heard you’re good at shooting, but you can also shoot a knife?”

Kwak Min-ki muttered as if it were quite right.

As you can see, I did it without incident, but in fact, it was a very difficult skill.

The Painless Hornet is as big as a gorilla, but its neck is only 5cm in diameter. Considering that the diameter of the head size is 50 cm, it was a really thin neck.

‘If you try to cut off his neck and touch his body, shoulder, or head even a little bit, he’ll explode right away without a word.’

I had to cut only the neck area perfectly without any superfluities. Not against a guy who stays still, but against a guy who flies fast.

Awesome! Awesome!

I did it effortlessly.

“her. See this guy?”

Kwak Min-ki kept laughing nonsense.

The secret was right here.

＜Mental acceleration＞

:: Accelerates the caster’s thought circuit, slowing down the perceived time.

:: Predict the opponent’s movement using the accelerated thought circuit.

see.

It just looks.

Before Monstrum attacks me, the Abnormality that can only be seen by me attacks in advance, leaving afterimages.

Through this, it was possible to predict the direction of its flight, the trajectory of its attack, and the speed at which the afterimage would disappear, and even predict that it would fly at about this speed.

Awesome!

All I have to do is move slightly to the side of the path he will fly in and lightly swing my right arm. Depending on how you look at it, it will feel as if the enemy is sucked in front of my dagger and thrusts itself in.

“What are you… . Why are you moving? No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t feel like you’re watching, avoiding, and swinging? Are you predicting?”

Kwak Min-gi seemed to see through the principle of my behavior in a short time.

Even though his actions were ridiculous, he was a guy who definitely deserved recognition for his skills.

‘I’ll be sad if it ends here.’

He condescendingly used the expression that the Painless Hornet was my team. To deny that statement head-on, the performance could not have ended here.

I took out the Astrolabus and immediately charged it with mana.

“Are you going to write that? Does it explode the moment you shoot it?”

I didn’t feel the need to answer Kwak Min-gi’s question.

You’ll know it when you see it for yourself.

Caang! Caang! Caang!

This time, three or four of them rushed at the same time. I fired Astrolabos at them without hesitation.

Passes… .

As expected, they immediately exploded and sprayed gas everywhere.

There was no problem.

＜Sense control＞

:: myself. Or arbitrarily manipulating the sensitivity of another person’s specific senses.

[Activates ‘Sense Control’.]

[Severely slows the sense of touch.]

[Severely dulls the sense of pain.]

[Activates ‘Emotion Implant’.]

At that moment, the sensations in my whole body changed to the feeling I would feel when an anesthetic was released.

Subsequently, the gas spread by the Painless Hornet reached my body.

Caang!

That was it.

I didn’t show the slightest change in expression. Since there is no sense, there is no reason to manage facial expressions.

He inhaled the air mixed with gas and pulled the trigger of the Astrolabos tirelessly.

‘Of course, if it’s a real Monstrum, it’s better not to do crazy things like this.’

To the end, that monster room was made with fantasy-style augmented reality, so it could come out like this.

Even if it is a surreal technology that reproduces physical force, it does not perfectly reproduce toxicity. It just made me feel the toxic tingling sensation.

“you… … .”

I saw Kwak Min-ki staring at my face with a piercing momentum. He’s probably trying to find out if I’m forcing myself to endure the pain.

There was no more performance to show here against these small puppies. I decided to finish quickly at this point.

Walted Shot.

The firing angle of the magic bullet was arbitrarily twisted so that the bullets collided with each other.

The magic bullets colliding with each other oxidize the magical power in their bodies, gain momentum again, and are fired again through the bent angle.

‘If you repeat this, the magic bullet will gradually decrease in size and power, but it doesn’t matter.’

The true meaning lies in the fact that once it has left, it makes the magic bullets and magic bullets continue to bounce, constantly tearing all enemies in its line of sight. It was like a storm of bullets raging.

“Tempest Bullet”, an applied technology using the so-called Walted Shot. This wasn’t in the original game, it was a technique I devised on my own.

Whirly Rick.

“It is over.”

After spinning the Astrolabos around and storing it in the pistol holster, he also used the finger technique to turn the dagger he was holding in his other hand and insert it into the knife holster.

To be honest, it’s superficial, but if you showed an activity worthy of that superficiality, the atmosphere was quite lively.

“Excellent.”

The examiner who was watching clapped his hands with a heavy feeling. Unlike him, Kwak Min-gi showed a dissatisfied face when I solved the problem with ease.

“It’s quite right. But the next step won’t go smoothly.”

After a while, I moved to the next exam hall and met a male student in the same position as me and in the same year as me.

‘Kwon Young-tae.’

Long-distance dealer position belonging to Class 1, Class 2. Yooseong was one of the three rivals to compete in the selection round.

If there is a singularity, it is the anti-material sniper rifle that is the size of his height in his hand.

“you. With such a cute baby, it will be difficult to defeat the upcoming Monster Room.”

Following the instructor’s instructions, I stood side by side and Kwon Young-tae started talking to me.

what a cute baby Are you talking about Astrolabos?

“They say that small peppers are spicy. Have you ever heard of it?”

“well. Once you touch the enemy, he will tell you if it is spicy or not.”

The guy loaded the sniper rifle with magic in a drooping voice. From the fact that it was a weapon carried by adults, it was already clear that it was an artifact.

There is one difference between this test and the previous one. While taking the test personally, there was a difference in being able to observe the performance of one’s competitor up close.

The intention was obvious without an explanation. In other words, the goal is to encourage competition in the way of ‘Who is better?’

“The test that will be given to you this time is simple. After a while, a flying monster will appear in the sky and you just have to hit it with skill. Day 5 is an individual exam, so it will alternate with each other.”

Following the instructor’s explanation, each of us infused magic into our weapons.

“First, Kwon Young-tae. Take three steps forward and prepare!”

“yes.”

Standing in his seat, Kwon Young-tae leaned the barrel on his shoulder and looked blankly up at the sky.

and.

Above the sky, which seemed to be about 500 meters away, the previously announced flying monster room appeared.

Entity Recon Eagle.

It was one of the few non-preemptive entities among Monstrum. But if you ask if it’s a harmless creature, it wasn’t.

Some monsters live in groups led by individuals with some intelligence. The Recon Eagle, under the control of such an entity, turned into a very menacing Monstrum.

‘That guy had the ability to share his visual information with other monsters.’

It was one of the troublesome regular monsters that you would often encounter if you entered an area inhabited by monsters and would require a lot of attention.

“This is chewing gum.”

He aimed the sniper rifle with one hand and pulled the trigger in a point-and-shoot stance without using the scope even though it was attached.

Tuquaang! Gee-ing – Cheeky duck.

Shortly after hearing a loud bang from a sniper rifle. A shockwave exploded in my direction, which was at a distance.

The Recon Eagle in the sky has already disappeared beyond recognition, no, literally deleted.

As if he couldn’t even warm up at this level, he turned around chicly and returned to the seat next to me.

If I had kept my mouth shut, I would have said, “It’s kind of cool.”

“Can you reach the Monstrum on that street with that mite gun? hmm. If I somehow condense my mana, I might be able to reach it. It will be difficult to kill.”

This is why people always have a problem with their muzzle.

If it wasn’t for the cubic tablet, half would have gone. Maybe it’s because it’s a character created as a rival for the preliminary round, so it’s typical for her to argue with her.

“The noise is trembling. I’m watching you in silence.”

“next! Student Doyoon Kim. Take three steps forward and prepare!”

I moved my steps at the instructor’s cry.

It’s time to crush that guy’s tall nose.
