I Became an Academy Regular

Chapter 58

Original departure (1)

When I opened my eyes, I saw the ceiling of the infirmary after a long time. I felt a sharp shock in the back of my head and got up.

“Ugh… it hurts so much.”

ugly cub. Are you really touching your head?

Fortunately, there were no scars when I touched the back. He must have been treated by a priest nearby. It seems that he was brought here without consciousness.

Just in case, I took my smartphone out of my pocket, and a message arrived, just in case.

…should you like this or not?

Before checking the status window, it was displayed on the screen to first distribute the stats received as a quest reward. It would be nice to keep it, but if you don’t use it right away, it’s random distribution, so I took the stamina right away.

[Health E++ ▶ Health D–]

Finally, his stamina rose to D-class. It took so long, I wasn’t really impressed. There is still a long way to go, but with this, I have the stamina as an aspiring hero shooter.

I checked the current stats in the status window.

strength E-

Horsepower C–

Stamina D– [*1 level increase]

Durability E+ [*1 level increase]

‘…why did the durability suddenly increase?’

In the meantime, I thought that the durability wouldn’t go up while rolling, but it seems that the last hit I got hit was the last blow. For some reason, it feels bad, but rising is a good thing.

Lately, while continuing to train, the only thing I have gained is a one-step increase in strength. Although it is a low stat, the rate of increase is bleak due to its low potential.

Still, considering that it’s only been a month since the main story started, it’s not a bad ability. The effect of antler juice, which has been ingested for a month, is also activated.

uhm. Considering that when I first started, there were only three Fs, the lowest grade, in my abilities, it was just mind-boggling.

Even if this was enough, there was no problem in fighting with the lower ranks of the A-Class by utilizing the perks and characteristics, except for the compatibility car such as the Line Castel.

At first, I did not feel any difficulty in this practical training test that I saw with class B. In terms of their abilities, they would only be about average, but as long as there is a difference in perks and experiences, this is an unavoidable phenomenon.

In addition, the magic-related characteristics have been strengthened to the extent that Oh Yun-ha and Aiden are mistaken for talent, so it can be called Yang-hak.

‘Honestly, considering the ball that Mine and Ye-chan Choi caught, I don’t think it should be specially promoted to Class A…’

I’m not from the top, so it won’t happen. Then the curtains around me were pulled up.

“Oh, are you awake?”

Mr. Grand asked, sticking his face out through the curtains. It’s a face I haven’t seen in a long time.

“Jihan-kun. Do you have any other ailments?”

With that said, I checked everywhere. There was no place where anything was wrong.

“No, no.”

“I’m glad. By the way, the aspiring hero who injured Jihan this time will be disciplined separately.”

“…discipline?”

what’s up Originally, this was not a level of verbal warning.

“Isn’t that the extent of the original?”

“It’s usually the case, but it seems like it’s because of the recent unpleasant things and it’s still sensitive. Besides, this time, the atmosphere is overheated, so there are more conflicts than before. The level of disciplinary action is probably the demotion of the C class and the disqualification for promotion…, I heard.”

When I heard that, I sighed inwardly.

It’s just that he’s just tired because he’s been chastised, and he unintentionally created one more Cheoncheon supporter rather than a bad guy.

‘I lost 1st place and was even disciplined…’

Next time you see me, won’t you stab me with a knife?!

While I was worried, Mr. Gran took out a business card from somewhere in the nun’s robe and handed it to me.

“And take this.”

“The new instructor who brought Jihan-kun asked me to deliver it.”

I glanced at the business card and flinched. A familiar name was written on the card.

‘Mika Beatrice…?’

Why is this person here? Are you sure you are included in the newly dispatched faculty members?

Gran said as I read the name engraved on the business card.

“I’m in charge of the weapon, so please call me at the number below when I wake up.”

“···is that so?”

As soon as he heard that, he quickly got up.

“Thank you. I’ll just go.”

I greeted him and immediately took out my phone to contact him.

‘Mika Beatrice’

He is one of the few ‘Weapon Master’ title holders in the worldview and another sub-heroine, but there was one important setting that was hidden more than that.

She was a hidden character who could attack the second main scenario outside, ‘Corrupted Hero’ alone.

“Yeah, okay. I’ll get you back soon.”

Aiden hung up the phone. He had just heard a shocking fact from one of the hounds.

‘Turn people into individual stones…’

It was a technique that had never been successful before.

The tower secretly conducted various experiments to make more individual stones that are only mined on some floors of the tower. And among them, there were biological experiments using criminals or executed prisoners.

The idea was to extract their individuality and make them into individual stones…, of course, it failed.

Listening to the process, the point of view of remaking a body with personality into a stone of personality was similar. However, it was an experiment that was quickly discarded because it had never yielded any significant results other than failure.

‘But it seems that he succeeded in making it into a drink.’

As a result of tearing off the captured wizard’s circuit, Maiden Curse’s magic was developed in a different direction from the tower. So it might be possible.

Aiden checked the date displayed on the phone screen. It has been quite some time since he had not met his own grandfather.

‘It’s an important fact, so I’ll have to see you later.’

Midterm exams will be over. Anyway, I was going to visit the tower.

“Ellen, where are you?”

Then, Yurin’s voice was heard. She thinks she’s done her exams too. Aiden sighed and put his phone in his pocket.

“I’m here!”

Aiden hurriedly walked to Yurin and thought.

‘Mr. Jihan will come if you tell me.’

I was just thinking of taking him to the tower, but I think we should go together now. By the way, refusing to do so was to no avail.

Aiden was planning to kidnap Seo Ji-han and drag him away as if forcing him to exercise.

I decided to meet Beatrice at a nearby cafe and headed there to organize my thoughts.

The second scenario outside, ‘Corrupted Hero’.

It is a story of aspiring heroes chasing down the cause of what happened after receiving a request from the tower that wizards who went out on a mission keep disappearing. It was also an important junction where some ending routes diverged.

The final boss of the scenario is ‘Wizard Hunter’, Drakhan.

A hero who got eroded while attacking the tower.

Usually, those affected by erosion transform into monsters or die sooner or later, but there were some who survived with tenacious vitality. The problem is that the surroundings of such a person are eroded in the same way.

The tower dispatched wizards to get rid of him, but Drakhan succeeded in killing them all and escaping outside.

The goal of the quest was to subdue heroes with the cooperation of only aspiring heroes, so it boasted a high level of difficulty. There were even strategies to avoid this event from occurring.

Above all, Drakhan had the ‘personality’ to neutralize all wizards. Therefore, in order to attack him, he had to fight only with pure body and weapons.

At that time, the minimum characters needed as colleagues were ‘Oh Yun-seong, Russell Tails, and Yu-rin’. Since the event usually occurs between the summer semester and the second semester, it is easier to attack if there are additional 2nd and 3rd year senior characters who have built up relationships.

But there is one Easter egg here.

One of the achievements [’10 or more ‘Wizard Hunter, Drakhan’ subjugation] is achieved, regardless of the route, a secret will be revealed.

[86 – 「True Name: Drakhan Beatrice」/ ‘Wizard Hunter, Drakhan’ Subdue ’10’ or more]

He was the older brother of Mica Beatrice.

The 7th floor imperial family is impossible to enter unless you push the tower scenario, and the fallen hero is an event that occurs before that.

As a result, Mika Beatrice had no choice but to approach the player first. This was also an event that occurred with a very rare probability, which had to be done with a great performance.

Beatrice was personally pursuing her brother’s whereabouts. He killed Drakhan himself with his own hands to free his family and free him.

The reason Drakhan is a hidden character in the attack is because if there is Beatrice as a companion, she does not fight and simply dies at her hand.

‘I didn’t know that until the achievements came out.’

Even if she knew that the player killed Drakhan, she never said anything about it. It was the same when she attacked Beatrice as a heroine.

The reason could be consideration for the playable character, or it could be a dislike to talk about.

Anyway, one of the most difficult quests, ‘Corrupted Hero’, was the easiest to break if luck and probability overlapped.

‘Should this be called a phone violation?’

If she was there, even if the Corrupted Hero Quest occurred right away, I could respond.

…More than that, Beatrice’s approach to me is probably ‘curiosity’, which is the subject of action, what is it? How did you ever see me fight?

No, that’s not what’s important right now.

‘It is impossible to meet Beatrice at this point even in the original work.’

I had to take advantage of this change.

I opened the door to the cafe and entered. There was a woman with pink hair who found me at a table seat in the corner and raised her hand. Her familiar face was Mica Beatrice.

As I approached, Beatrice said with a smile.

“Welcome. Aspiring hero.”

“···hello.”

I said hello and sat down in front of him.

“Are you okay with being hurt?”

When Beatrice spoke with a worried expression on me, she quietly nodded her head.

“Yes. It’s fine. Maybe my weapon…”

“Ah, here it is.”

As if forgot, Beatrice handed me my weapons from the seat next to me. He took the engine blade and assault wolf and put them all under his seat.

“I use good weapons. Did you buy it?”

“No. I got it as a reward.”

“Ah. That’s right.”
