I Became the Only Buffer in the Academy

188 – Selection Test – 2

The selection test for black dungeon raiders was a rare interest.

It is natural. It is to attack dungeons that mankind has not conquered yet.

Unlike other dungeons, black dungeons create dungeons around them. In other words, just by its existence, innumerable monsters that are threatening to mankind will occur.

Black dungeons have occurred not only in Korea, but also all over the world, and some countries have fallen into danger of extinction because of black dungeons.

So everyone knew the danger, but no one was able to clear the black dungeon.

Because the monsters there are so strong, and so many.

That’s why many heroes struggled to clear the black dungeon.

Since it is a selection test to target such a place, there is no choice but to draw a lot of attention.

“Shouldn’t it be possible for S ranks to gather and attack the black dungeon together?”

The day on which the selection test is held. Quite a few heroes gathered in the association.

All of them are only those who are confident in their skills, so their power is not normal. As I waited while watching dozens of A-class or higher heroes standing with nervous expressions, Yoo Choa, who was standing next to me, asked a small question.

“That’s true. There are many reasons. Just because there are S-ranks doesn’t necessarily mean they’re strong… Not all S-ranks are on good terms.”

“Huh? Really?”

“Yes. Kenichiro Yamamoto, a Japanese S-class hero called Shinchang, has the worst relationship with Jinho-nim. If they see each other, they will wield weapons first, right?”

“Wow…”

“There are many other things. The S-classes have been attacking dungeons and ruins together or fighting the villains for that long. In the process, there can be no complaints about each other.”

From nob le mt l. co m

Not only that.

When all the S ranks enter the black dungeon to attack, if a villain or a powerful monster appears, they cannot be stopped.

“An S-class monster appeared during the third black dungeon raid. At that time, most of the S-class heroes went to the black dungeon raid, and in the end, Hungary suffered great damage from the S-class monster.”

The damage was so great that Hungary was eventually absorbed by neighboring countries.

As I recalled the contents of the history book I had read before, Choa Yoo put on a serious expression.

“I see… Wow. This won’t be easy.”

“Here you are!”

At that moment, a bright voice was heard. Turning her head, she saw a dark blonde beauty. She was elizabeth

She walked with a soft smile, the same as usual, and was wearing the Taylor family’s combat uniform and the blessed sword I gave her.

“Wow. Are you serious?”

“I have to be serious…”

Elizabeth’s expression was determined.

Well, it would be more like her. She must be thinking that she can save her own mother only by defeating her demon, the master of the black dungeon.

You don’t want to entrust everything to Old Man Breath.

“Yes! Cheer up!”

“Yohan and Choa. Are the two of you okay? My grandfather said that the two of them are almost pass…”

“Well, that’s right.”

Me too, but Yoo Choa is especially like that. Yuchoa was essential to attacking the most recent blockage and forced to retreat several times.

“It was a splitting slime, right? Phew… It’s a pity. Having to recapture the monsters in the black dungeon…”

That was the most irritating feature of the black dungeon. Unlike other dungeons, black dungeons recreate the monsters you caught over time. In other words, it’s a story that you have to catch the guys you caught so far.

There is really no other way to describe it than to say that it was a dungeon built to feed humanity.

“Ahahahaha… I can’t help it. But this time I’m sure I’ll be able to clear the black dungeon. Don’t worry too much~.”

Yoo Choa smiled brightly and hugged Elizabeth’s arm. Her Elizabeth, who sent her warm gaze towards her, nodded slightly and clenched her fists. She always says she’s laid back in her but she sure seems she’s nervous this time around. That’s why I held Elizabeth’s hand.

“John?”

“Don’t be too pressured. If you do your best, you should be able to pass the test.”

“…Yes. Thank you.”

“…What is it? Why are you guys holding hands except for me?”

It was then. What a blunt voice was heard. When I turned to where the voice came from, Jin Si-yeon was standing in pitch-black greaves.

With her long, black hair like her armor in a tight ponytail, she stared at me and Elizabeth at the hand she was holding and then looked at me.

“Why?”

“…No. Nothing.”

I laughed at the sight of her turning her head away. She’s like a dishonest guy.

I stretched out her hand to her, and when I held her hand, Jin Si-yeon grumbled, but did not remove her hand.

When we’re together, he’s overflowing with cuteness, but when we’re with other people, he’s always like this.

But this is also a cute part, so let’s go over it with a smile.

“Cheonsuho and Serenia?”

“I think it will come soon… Ah. Did you hear more than that? The Student President and Executive Director…”

Before Jin Si-yeon finished her words, she saw people walking from the gate. It was Joo Se-hee and Ryu Sena.

As I watched them enter the crowd in combat uniforms with expressions no different than usual, I patted Jin Si-yeon on the back.

“Can you do it?”

“…As much as you like.”

The selection test is conducted in two rounds. The first is the basic combat power evaluation. After shaking it off to some extent, a tournament between the remaining members.

Indeed, it could be said that it was a very clean selection.

“How do I select a tank?”

“Ah. It seems that tankers and other support positions evaluate their basic combat ability and take a test for each job instead of a tournament.”

I wonder if this is why there is a story of a poor dealer. But what can I do? Among the Awakeners, there are many dealers, few tanks, and few healers, and I am the only buffer.

I just have to say that.

“Ha ha ha! Were you there?!”

“What are you doing now?”

It was Cheon Soo-ho who appeared with a relaxed voice.

Equipped with a bone shield obtained earlier, newly fitted armor, and a shotgun, he grinned and shrugged his shoulders.

“Originally, the main character appears last.”

“Then you’re not the main character. Serenia hasn’t come yet.”

“What?!”

“Ahahahaha! Another second?”

“Hmm! As expected, the main character comes last!”

With a short hair difference, Serenia appeared. Chun Soo-ho was moved by her confident words and tried to say something.

“From now on, we will conduct a selection test for black dungeon raiders!”

At the cry of the association staff, he eventually couldn’t utter his words and just turned his head toward it with a huff.

“From now on, please go to Area A! Yohan Kim! Suho Cheon! Choa Yoo! Serenia! Luscalt! Lee Bau! Chang Ryui!…”

Are dealers and other job groups divided? Even after dividing it like that, there are more people on the dealer side. I waved to Elizabeth and Jin Shi-yeon.

“Then see you later.”

“Yes!”

“Yes. See you later.”

The two mixed dealers head to Area B. In the meantime, the personnel heading to Area A were divided again. The tank and healer went to different places, and only Yuchoa and I were left.

“You two will be evaluated separately.”

“Okay, but what kind of evaluation will I get?”

“First of all, Yohan Kim is registered as a buffer…”

“Yes.”

“All you need is to cast buffs on other heroes and members of the association. And the tests Yuchoa needs to do are prepared underground.”

We’re splitting up here too. I’m up, she’s down I lightly patted Yoo Choa on the back.

“Good job.”

“Uhuhuhu~! Who do you think I am! Don’t worry! See you later!”

Watching Yuchoa go down under her, I climbed the stairs to the top.

Then we met.

“…Welcome.”

What is this bluntness?! I raised my head and looked at the owner of the voice. With Jinho. He stood with his arms crossed.

“Follow me.”

“Oh yes.”

The grown-up father-in-law, no, the grown-up future father-in-law said in a bleak tone and led me. For some reason, being with him made the awkward atmosphere grow as the days passed.

“That…”

“Yes.”

“Are you getting along well with Siyeon?”

“Ah. Yes. I am.”

“…And. I heard that the two of them went to an uninhabited island.”

“…Yes.”

“…Wasn’t it all right?”

From nob le mt l. co m

No big deal, right? Okay. Because we only slept holding hands… You can assume that there was no one. I stared at the sword hanging from his waist and nodded.

“Yeah. It was fine.”

“…Yes. That’s what it should be.”

He nodded as he gently stroked the hilt of his sword. Good luck! Because the sword of a father with a daughter is not wielded.

“Here.”

The place where he took me was a small conference room.

“You are Yohan Kim. I heard the story from Captain Oh Wongu. I heard that you are a buffer??”

“I didn’t know that there would be a person claiming to be a buffer…”

“Isn’t this the first proper buffer since Azazel? Do you have anything to do with Azazel?”

The heroes belonging to the association were showing interest in me. When countless requests for questions were pouring in on me, the future father-in-law next to me lightly raised his hand to block their questions.

As expected, the love of a son-in-law is an adult father-in-law…!

“Take the test first and ask questions.”

“……”

It doesn’t completely block it.

I received his gaze and nodded his head.

“What I need to do is buffs… So I’ll use the buffs first.”

I immediately applied the buff. All the buffs that are used for each individual, starting with multiple buffs.

After buffing all 17 people, I saw their expressions.

Everyone couldn’t hide the surprise on their faces.

“…Excellent. Not at all like the report… No, I think it’s even better. You… May be the savior of mankind.”

That sounds a little too far fetched.
