I Became an Academy Regular

Original departure (3)

To be honest, as soon as I started the main story, I almost got a game over.

‘The 103rd Tower’, due to the worldview that has become more hardcore than the original original, a new force appears out of the blue, and even the events that should take place over time overlapped at the same time.

I somehow overcame them, but it cannot be denied that luck played a role.

‘This case of lying is a preparation for the future.’

The final exam in the midterm is ‘practicum’. This is a gate or dungeon attack. It was originally a ranking match, but it is a different element from the original, which was newly added due to the sudden death of the heroes.

In order to take the test, you have to go outside where they appear, so it’s not yet the time for Drakhan to resume his activities, but there were enough reasons to prepare.

Since Drakan only removes the elements that threaten him to the end, he doesn’t aim for anything else, but he was a boss that had to be dealt with anyway.

‘Because there is also erosion in places where Drakhan wanders.’

What I want is an unconditional companionship with Beatrice.

Even if it is a disciple who is not a disciple, due to her personality, if I go outside to take a test, she will follow me for the supervisor and watch over me.

Beatrice was silent at my request, then pulled out her sword and looked at me.

“···like.”

That was it.

Naturally, he lowered his body and raised his sword. Beatrice looks at me intently. He must have recognized my posture due to the activation of the privilege.

Whoa. I caught my breath and put my finger on the trigger.

“Then I’ll go.”

“Anytime.”

I pulled the trigger repeatedly to heat up the engine and then ran to Beatry. Anyway, it is impossible for me to succeed in her attack on her now.

What she has to show is a singularity that will stimulate her curiosity.

The lack of power and speed depends on the performance of the weapon. As he got closer to Beatrice, he pulled the trigger all the way to explode the booster. She momentarily swung her accelerated blade at her.

Kaang! But Beatrice calmly took it with her one-handed sword. Rather, I was swept away by my power.

It was the same even if he widened the distance again and attacked with a different trajectory. Beatrice received them over and over again with a casual expression. As the meaningless battle continued, Beatrice opened her mouth.

“A hero aspiring hero. Would you like to try it with a weapon other than a sword?”

I wiped the drops of sweat and put the heated engine blade into its sheath.

“Yes. Anything please.”

“Then do whatever you want.”

Beatrice took out various weapons from the subspace. There was no such thing as a spear, a lance or a whip. Fortunately, when I lifted the familiar window first, an information window appeared.

‘It’s also a good weapon.’

As a weapon of the imperial family, it is a unique grade in S rank. It’s probably the best weapon I’ve ever seen since coming here.

“When you’re ready, let’s start over.”

After that, I continued to switch weapons and attack Beatrice. Beatrice still didn’t move even a single step, smashing back my attack. Rather than knowing where to attack, I feel like I am blocking just by seeing where I am attacking.

Time passed again. As I became more and more exhausted, Beatrice put her sword into the subspace. At the same time, the perks were deactivated.

My natural posture changed erratically again, said Beatrice.

“Let’s do it this far.”

“Whoa. I see.”

Beatrice looked at me as I gasped for breath and folded her arms.

“So that’s a trait? Or a personality?”

“Yes? What do you mean….”

“Breaking. Didn’t you want to compete with me to show that?”

···right. Beatrice seemed strangely aware that my weapon proficiency was constantly changing. It’d be strange if she didn’t notice her if she had the same eyebrows as her. To show that, I asked him to compete.

“Hmm. Like the test I saw, it seems that it only works when you are competing with someone… It’s strange. I’ve never heard of a case where you have to satisfy such a fluid condition.”

When I did not deny it, Beatrice nodded as if she had understood something.

“Okay. Personally, I’m curious, so I’m accepting a request from an aspiring hero.”

“···! thank you.”

“Still, as I said before, it’s not ‘I’m. share it.”

“All right.”

“Well then. See you then.”

As I nodded, Beatrice turned and headed for the training ground door. Then he came back soon after.

Beatrice, who appeared with a shy expression, said bluntly.

“Would you like some help?”

He forgot to put the weapon he had taken out. . . . . I thought she forgot. I gathered the weapons scattered around and put them in Beatrice’s subspace.

Beatrice carefully inspected the weapons and returned only after confirming that they had been put in.

‘Ahhh… Anyway, this is what happened.’

There is only one purpose for me to eliminate the events of the ‘Corrupted Hero’. Just to prevent the contact between Noah Park and Drakhan itself. If that happens, the ‘bad ending with evil tendencies’ will disappear at the fork of the ending.

If a battle takes place between the military commander Drakhan and Noah Park, of course, Noah Park, who is still only an aspiring hero, is pushed back without outside intervention. Furthermore, a situation in which the weapon, ‘Lian Arwell’ was destroyed inevitably occurred.

Destruction in the state of arms means death. Even if Arwell dies, since I have secured one soul iron, I can save it, but in that case, I will slowly head towards the true ending.

‘…From that starting point, Noah Park’s personality will change too.’

In the dual aspect, the tendency to be good will largely disappear. You will be less reluctant to act.

Then the call came. When I checked the screen, an unknown number was floating. Carefully answering the phone, I heard a familiar voice.

[-Is this the number you signed up for?]

“···Huh? What. What’s going on?”

The owner of the voice was Astiel Gran.

“So when is he coming?”

“It used to be a training ground, so I’ll come soon.”

The man sitting in front of Astiel took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. With a tired impression, he wiped away the small glasses that had flowed down and put his cigarette into his mouth.

Astiel looked at it and frowned.

“Are you sure you want to smoke here?”

“Is there a problem?”

“Yeah! You’re talking natural.”

The man ignored Astiel’s pinzan, put a cigarette in his mouth, rummaged through his pocket, and pulled out an empty hand. The man who was looking around said to Astiel.

“Student council president. Could you lend me some fire?”

“…is it possible for a student to carry something like a lighter?”

“Oh, I guess.”

The man put the cigarette back in with a sad expression. Just in time, the clerk, Chae Yoo-ah, put coffee on the table.

“Have some coffee here.”

“Thank you. I’ll drink.”

The man put his finger close to the steaming coffee. Then there was a breeze, and the center of the coffee began to swell and rotate. After it had cooled down a bit, I sip my coffee.

Soon a knock was heard. As soon as the door opened, Seo Ji-han’s face appeared.

“Chairman. Why did you call me…”

Seo Ji-han stopped talking as she entered the student council room. When the man turned to Seo Ji-han, he looked at him and closed the door slowly.

“Are you here? Come by my side.”

As Astiel said, Seo Ji-han quietly came to the seat next to him and sat across from the man.

“Seo Ji-han. This person is….”

“Oh, I’ll introduce myself.”

The man put down his coffee cup and handed it over.

“The wizard from the tower is Ron Ahtra. Nice to meet you.”

“Hello. My name is Seo Ji-han.”

Seo Ji-han grabbed his outstretched hand. He already knew who the man was.

‘Ron Ahart’.

A wizard with the only ‘wind’ attribute in the worldview. This is a family that was destroyed by the disciplinary action of the master of the tower, trying to use the expedient to reach the top through the ‘outer wall’ without climbing the tower normally.

At one time, they were a wizard family that represented one attribute in the family, such as ‘Aiden’ of fire, ‘Dwan’ of water, and ‘Ahat’ of wind, but lost everything due to that sin.

There is no way to learn wind magic in the game, so there is nothing related to wind magic in the ‘achievements’. At the present time, in order to prevent magic from being practiced in the Ahat family, only one heir was allowed to inherit blood.

Then he said he found himself… Seo Ji-han asked cautiously.

“I heard you found me. What’s going on?”

“I want to ask you about the unfortunate thing that happened the other day. I heard you killed Choi Ye-chan. Is that right?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

Ahart looked at Seo Ji-han carefully.

“Can you explain in detail how you knocked it down?”

Seo Ji-han began to explain the situation at that time. Except for things that don’t need to be said. Ahat drank coffee and listened to the story. Soon after the story was over, Ahat put down the empty coffee cup.

“You know how to deal with shadow magic. Have you studied?”

“I’m personally curious.”

“Um. Good posture.”

The conversation ended with that. Ahat didn’t ask Seo Ji-han about anything else.

‘··········?’

When Seo Ji-han felt puzzled, Astiel opened his mouth as if he had been waiting.

“Then did this happen?”

“Yeah. Since you granted my request, I should also do the student council president’s request. Is the student council president telling Yoosung Academy not to attack the gates in the tower?”

“Yeah, because the academy wants to force it into practice somehow.”

Astiel said with a very serious expression.

“Why not?”

“In this training test, there are more accidents between aspiring heroes than before. If the atmosphere is overheated and a real test with grades is conducted, someone might die this time. Shouldn’t it be flexible at the academy level in the first place? That’s our idea.”

“From the academy’s point of view, it’s because we have to supply heroes for the attack.”

“…so that’s why you shouldn’t treat children with the word supply?”

“Oh, I’m sorry. I made a mistake again.”

Having said that, Ahat didn’t look very sorry. As for Astiel as well, when the atmosphere started to rise, Seo Ji-han felt like she wanted to get out of her seat.

‘…Astiel doesn’t know what this person’s insides are, so he’s probably saying this.’

I thought it would be nice to be a little more careful.

‘More than that, if the exam is replaced, the time until the end of the exam increases.’

Around that time, it would be time for Drakhan to resume his activities, so it would be easy to pinpoint the location of the wizard based on the information he had been killed. Until then, there was nothing wrong with being able to receive training from Beatrice with peace of mind.

“Well, anyway, I understand your position well. I’ll pass it on to the top.”

“Tell me it’s the student council’s position.”

“That or that.”

After finishing the chores, Ahat got up from his seat with the fedora next to him.

“I’m going to have a good coffee.”

And right before he opened the door and left, Ahat looked back and said:

“By the way, Seo Ji-han. Are you from Earth or from the Tower?”

“It’s Earth.”

“But how did you learn magic?”

When Ahat asked, Astiel looked at Seo Ji-han.

“Eh. Magic, what do you mean?”

Seo Ji-han had a calm expression even after hearing those words. It is natural to know The opponent is the head of a family that has been destroyed. It means that you are not pushed by wizards of other families by being single.

There was no way such a person could not feel the attribute of mana flowing through his body.

“Do I have to tell you that too?”

At Seo Ji-han’s question, Ahart smiled and shook her head.

“No. It’s just my curiosity.”

“Then I won’t tell you.”

“Haha. I see. I hope to see you again later.”

Saying that, Ahat left the student council room.

widely.

As the door closed, Seo Ji-han felt like she wanted to take a deep breath. scared Ahat looks like a gentleman on the outside, but on the inside he is as exhausted as he looks.

‘…I didn’t expect to meet the boss of the top scenario out of nowhere.’

Later, Ron Ahart causes confusion by occupying the 25th floor alone. I knew she was supposed to be in charge of the exchange between TOP and the Yoosung Academy, but I didn’t know that she would meet like this.

“What is it, what does magic mean?”

Astiel asked with fuss, Seo Ji-han shook his head.

“It’s a secret. By the way, did you call me to ask that?”

“A shameful secret… Uh, I think Choi and Ye-chan were personally friends.”

Seo Ji-han suddenly became terrified.

“The president called me even though he knew that?!”

“Ah-, don’t get me wrong. It’s a private matter, and I’m here for a public job. I’ve investigated all the people involved besides you to get the full story of the incident. You’re the last.”

It’s a surprise. Seo Ji-han finally let out a sigh that he had been holding back.

“Whoa. . . . but Chairman. What was it about earlier? Is the exam being cancelled?”

“Is that? The final exam schedule for the midterm exam is next week.”

Astiel said while eating the refreshments on the table.

“I was in the process of filing a petition to replace it with another test somehow. The student council decided on a meeting.”

“Really? There were no rumors floating around.”

“It’s a secret. If this doesn’t pass, you have to go outside, just in case anyone is relaxed. If the test is replaced, you can tell it then.”

“Um. Wouldn’t that make a fuss as it is?”

“Well. It’s usually welcome.”

Astiel said with a bitter smile.

“Because I don’t want to risk dying.”

“…it is true.”

Although there are aspiring heroes who go into the tower for exploration, there are very few aspiring heroes who go outside like Seo Ji-han or Park No-ah. This is because the feeling is different from the area receiving the protection of the tower.

“But then, what kind of test will be conducted?”

“Keukkeuk. That’s what I thought. I’m pushing it to a test that emphasizes cooperation.”

“Cooperation?”

“Yeah. Collaboration.”

cooperation.

It was a word full of good meanings, but Seo Ji-han felt insecure. Because it was the rule to always do something out of the ordinary when Astiel had a sly smile.

“Fufufu…. It’s good to look forward to it.”

Seo Ji-han was not expected at all.
