I Became the Laughing Bell Character of the Academy

Poor [mingling cat] Lucia Punisher has been stained by Eleanor. Yeah, it ended up being like a game.

Despite her status as a soldier, she became closer to Eleanor than necessary.

“Prince Oz, please don’t interfere with our affairs.”

not intervene?

No, rather the opposite. she was asking me

Please somehow turn this shitty situation around.

It must have been frustrating.

The fact that she would not be able to act as a member of the organization made her nervous.

That’s why I did such a dangerous thing.

“It’s not even funny.”

Lucia smiled faintly for an instant at my answer.

It disappeared in an instant, so I must have been the only one who could see it.

Intervention itself is impossible for [Myungwang], and I am recognized as a very dangerous being.

In the end, there is only one thing that ＜Tenebris＞ can do directly.

But Eleanor is different. She has no power and no connections.

All Lucia wants from me is to somehow reverse the situation Eleanor is in.

“I refuse.”

Ta–Ah!

At that moment, another sniper shot at me.

intermediate magic

[Parma Shield]

“under… … !”

Did he even accept the meaning of rejection as a sign of hostility?

Seeing that Lucia’s expression was perplexed, it seems that it was an accidental action again.

Did you even think I would attack Lucia?

I guess I was impatient.

Judging from the directions, it looks like it’s the same guy as before, but it might be a beastman like Lucia.

A beastman with excellent senses must have felt quite menacing from me with [Contemplation] activated.

“Rather, it went well.”

“What… … ?”

Originally, I wanted to come up with a strategy slowly, but it is a yard where I was even hit first.

Even if I subdue Lucia by force, you won’t be able to express your dissatisfaction with me. He was so worried about her that he even sniped at her, so it must be enough to be used as material for negotiations.

“If you want hostility.”

“No, this… … !”

Lucia, who noticed my intention to attack, urgently tries to make an excuse.

but i don’t want to listen

I do not intend to miss the opportunity.

intermediate magic

[Strengthen physical ability]

“Ugh… … ?!”

bang!

Lucia also pulled the trigger and started shooting blue magic bullets, probably realizing that I was serious.

＜Tenebris＞, who had been peeping at the situation around him, felt panicked.

Didn’t you think I’d come running from these streets?

It was such a foolish idea.

[Space Barrier Lv. One]

6 shots total. The number of times [Space Barrier] has withstood improvised magic bullets.

This is pretty good for a glass shield.

“Did you ever think that close combat was a stopgap?”

I’ve already shown close combat several times.

＜Tenebris＞ would have known about that, but I would have thought of it as a temporary measure.

So you wouldn’t have thought that I would run.

Because shooters have an advantage in close combat rather than wizards.

But things are a little different.

At this distance, even support through sniping is impossible.

And that’s not all.

“Anyway, the only thing I have left is time.”

Basically, I didn’t neglect training.

No matter how tired I was, I was the one who grabbed ＜Broken Sky＞ and broke the daily quests.

I just can’t stand the time when I’m not doing anything.

Moreover, I know what fate met Oz.

Not only is time spared, but life is at risk.

magic practice?

That’s natural, and when mana is low, even physical skills can’t be tolerated if you don’t train.

I am surprisingly obsessive.

“To spread the distance against a wizard, does that mean you have that much confidence?”

“… … ?!”

Lucia backs away from the constant rushing attack.

It is an inevitable habit of a shooter.

Whether it’s a shooter or a wizard, in the end close combat cannot be a specialty.

Well, considering her basic physical abilities, she would have an advantage over the wizard, but Lucia was also used to fighting at a distance.

“After all, coolness is what counts.”

I lost my cool.

It will feel like an unfortunate mistake.

Clearly, if it weren’t for the pressure from [Contemplation], Lucia wouldn’t have thought of stepping back either.

It was rather a misjudgment because of the high sense of the beast.

In battle, it is important to control the opponent’s psychology.

intermediate magic

[Stone Wall]

First of all, a barrier is built to block the intervention of ＜Tenebris＞ in advance.

It is a defensive attribute magic that creates a wall of rocks.

The earth attribute has a good effect on physical power.

I have already confirmed that fact this morning by tearing down the training ground as a dormitory.

Moreover, Lucia is a shooter and her attack power is not that strong.

“Doesn’t it have to be difficult because there is no one to help?”

SR rating.

Normally, it would be ambiguous in other games, but in ＜Broken Sky＞, where the cost of forming a party was low, it could be said to be the core.

And Lucia was quite competent among the SR-ranked characters.

It was because of her utility that she could blend into any party.

That’s why it was rather difficult in a 1:1 battle like this.

intermediate magic

[stalagmite]

A simple phenomenon magic that causes stalagmites to rise from the earth.

However, it worked even better if it was developed together with [Stone Wall], which builds a wall of earth in front of you.

Aside from being able to keep close opponents in check by putting thorns on the barrier, it was effective because it could be shot straight ahead with just a little application.

The combination of the two magics was enough to be said to be common sense to the extent that it could be said that it was created for that purpose in the first place.

“What… … ?”

Yes, it is well-known common sense.

That’s why it’s only natural that Lucia will escape from the front of [Stone Wall].

It could pop out of the ground or even out of the wall blocking the front, so she had only one choice.

As she jumped into the air, she was shocked to see where the magic was unfolding.

“You are caught in prejudice.”

I specialize in a fighting style that cuts through prejudices from the start.

That’s why he engages in battle with the thought that he cannot subdue his opponent in an obvious way.

[Stallagmite] is created right under my feet.

Originally, the pointed spear should rise, but through fine adjustment, the tip is made blunt.

Then, it flew like a spring and again narrowed the distance with Lucia, who was floating in the air.

“why… … ?”

Lucia’s expression is stained with bewilderment. It will feel like your mind is empty.

It was me who had the advantage over when the distance widened.

In close combat, there wasn’t that much of a difference between her and me.

That’s why it must have seemed like a trick on my part to keep them apart.

Didn’t he mix in a few words of provocation to make it look like he really was?

But I closed the distance again.

“Caught.”

“Ugh?!”

Through the gap of embarrassment, Lucia grabbed the wrist holding the pistol and held it down, landing on the ground.

She fell to the floor and was completely overpowered.

Above all, she was able to block her greatest weapon in advance.

“Oops!”

Lucia, who had been in a daze for a moment as if she did not understand, came to her senses belatedly and tried to pull out a second pistol using her free hand.

Of course, that is expected behavior.

“uh… … ?”

Lucia, who was searching for the holster that was supposed to be tied to her thigh under her skirt, was once again tinged with embarrassment.

“Looking for this?”

Unfortunately, Lucia’s second pistol was taken long ago when she was lost.

It’s a gun that shoots magic bullets, so I don’t know how to use it, but I aim it at Lucia’s back.

It’s the exact opposite of the first one.

“Oh, Prince Oz. Anyway, I wonder what it would be like as a gentleman to rummage under a schoolgirl’s skirt?”

Lucia, who had been fighting fiercely until just now, suddenly blushed as if embarrassed.

“… … Isn’t it a bit cowardly to say such a thing there?”

It was obviously a legitimate duel, but turning people into trash like this?

If a man has a conscience, he cannot act in such a way.

Furthermore, there are watchful eyes watching this from afar.

“Ugh!”

Bending the wrists that were holding on a little more, he refreshed the atmosphere.

Fortunately, Lucia seemed to have come to her senses as well, so she returned with an expression of resentment.

focus a little more Activate [Contemplation] to the maximum.

As a result, the eyes become more cold and cold.

He thrusts the cold muzzle into her neck as if he were about to fire a gun.

Even Lucia, who is looking at me from the sidelines, breaks into a cold sweat as if it is difficult to understand whether my actions are acting.

Now, what to do with ＜Tenebris＞, who will be watching from afar?

Should I abandon Lucia?

No, if it’s time to hide their identity, it’s different if I already know about them.

I wouldn’t want to lose a valuable source of information over this.

As expected, [Contemplation] captured those who were stealthily approaching us from afar.

“One, two, three… … No, four?”

“Five.”

The direction the voice came from was right behind my back, and I missed the movement.

Even though there was [Contemplation], I couldn’t figure out the opponent. As I always feel, [Contemplation] is not omnipotent.

When ＜Parade＞ appeared, I couldn’t even check it because it was far away, and when Alexios approached me during the midterm exam, I couldn’t notice it in advance.

because i was immature

My mental strength was unable to fully draw out the power of [Contemplation].

If you can draw more power, but you can’t control your body with dizziness, isn’t it a turn of events?

As [Erosion Degree] goes up, mental strength goes up as well, but that doesn’t mean I had any intention of forcing such a gamble.

“This is amazing… … .”

I was really very surprised.

But try to be as balanced as possible.

It’s always been like that, but if you show weakness, it’s the end.

My weakness stems from the prejudice that the other person is usually aware of.

It’s dangerous if the opponent digs into my lack of magic skills.

“This is what surprised me. Shall we say that he is the successor of the King of Darkness? I thought I understood enough, but I think I was still lacking.”

“You speak well.”

There was no need to look back.

[Contemplation] still couldn’t catch the opponent, but I could tell that a blade was touching the nape of my neck.

It’s so stealth that you won’t even notice that your throat is being cut if you lose sight of it even for a moment.

Among the members of ＜Tenebris＞, it is impossible not to know such a talented person.

[SSR Penetrating Shadow]

Discre Punisher

The general manager of ＜Tenebris＞ took the mound. To be honest, I didn’t expect this guy to appear already.

It was hard to think that he would exist even though it was already quite different compared to the original ＜Broken Sky＞.

“… … It seems the head of the academy hired the professors faster than I thought.”

Discre Punisher is a professor in the basic combat arts class to replace Gerard.

He’s like an assassin, but it’s probably because the character job group is basically classified as a warrior.

Well, there’s nothing wrong with this guy coming out quickly.

Like Lucia, he couldn’t be deeply involved in ＜Skientia＞.

No, it could be said that the conditions were harsher than those of Lucia.

“… … Really, like Agent Lucia said, great intelligence.”

“Agent… … . Isn’t it hard for a family?”

I look back with courage, reminding myself once again that he won’t be able to kill me.

Suin, a cat with black hair and sinister red eyes, was there, as if emerging from the shadows.

The tone of his words was quite mild, but his eyes were infinitely cold.

“I don’t want to hear from you. The successor of the King of Darkness.”

Lucia’s older brother and leader of ＜Tenebris＞, Discre Punisher is an SSR-class warrior character.

He entered ＜Skientia＞ openly. Yes, it came in plainly.

I even got permission from Tia to seek information on campus.

Tia also offered a professorship on the condition that she be allowed to investigate, as if it was absurd to see Discre openly revealing her identity.

“Could you please free our informant?”

“Isn’t that the attitude of asking?”

“Did you hear that as a request?”

Discree shrugged and pulled the black sword, which was still touching my neck, slightly.

“You don’t want to die here yet, do you?”

Blood flows near the nape of the neck.

It hurts but doesn’t show it.

“I said it before, but can you guys kill me here?”

“But will you be the same? You don’t think you’ll be able to stay in ＜Skientia＞ for the rest of your life, do you?”

“Do you have the confidence to greet me from the front when I am ready?”

“… … .”

Discre’s vertical pupil scans me. you’re estimating

＜Skientia＞ basically corresponds to a 4-year academy.

Graduated? Of course you should.

Even if I wanted to get a job at ＜Skientia＞, I would have to go outside at least once.

To sum it up, it’s simple. I still have more than three and a half years.

“I assure you, when that time comes, you guys will not be able to stop me.”

Discre and I are on the same level.

Of course, in ＜Broken Sky＞, the discreet is stronger.

In PVP, it is a character that can be called a cheat key.

But aside from me, most of the characters’ powers follow the story.

“You haven’t forgotten who I am, have you?”

“… … .”

[Successor of the King of Darkness]

The weight of that title is much heavier than I thought.

There are wizards who are stronger than me in both the game and the story.

exist. No wonder.

However, I am the only one who has the qualifications to become the next King of Darkness.

That’s because I was selected based on my potential, not just my current skills.

“You don’t need three years to graduate. Two years is enough.”

To be honest, it was a bluff, but I have no choice but to worry about discrees.

If I am a gemstone with potential, then Discre is a perfected adept.

My position is different.

Oz, who has both talent and hard work, has a promising future, and an expert who has caught up with talent only with hard work and experience.

Being an expert means judging things systematically and not taking on challenges.

“… … I surrender. Can you tell me what you want?”

Since he is the leader of a group, he has already gone through a lot of experience, so he cannot force himself to gamble.

It was inevitable for a guy who was tainted with world affairs.

Of course, as a member of society, I know very well that life is tough.

Do not make unreasonable requests.

“First of all, I would like you to lend me a place to spend the night.”

“… … ?”

Yes, the most important thing in the world is a house with a roof.

Sleeping in the rain is sad.
