Iron Blooded Villain’s Academy Class

Chapter 105

A few days have passed since school started.

Both students and teachers felt like a dream during the vacation, and returned to their daily lives.

However, Seol Ga-eun’s daily life was a little different from before.

‘… It looks very difficult.’

Minsoyul no longer used alchemy tools. Instead, she was devouring the paper on a tablet she bought with patent royalties.

At first glance, the contents looked like documents found in outer space.

‘Well, to be able to patent it means that you’re greater than a guild alchemist.’

It’s been a long time since I’ve already surpassed the level of a student. There was only one way for Seol Ga-eun to help her.

“Soyul.”

“Yes?”

“Sometimes I cool my head too. I bought ice cream, let’s eat together.”

Seol Ga-eun smiled and held out a black bag. I went to my store for a while.

Min So-yul smiled brightly after checking the contents.

“Wow! Grassroots! Thank you sir!”

Seol Ga-eun did not understand the taste of mint chocolate. In her hand was a regular chocolate ice cream.

“What are you looking at now?”

“Ah, this. This is a study on the relationship between the efficacy of combat enhancers currently in circulation and mana consumption. Basically, we compared and tested the argument that mana usage decreases as physical ability increases and the opposite argument that mana usage increases due to increased physical fatigue… .”

At the explanation that followed, Seol Ga-eun smiled and nodded as she ate the ice cream.

‘I don’t know what you’re talking about.’

At least I understood the outline, but when I moved to the data graph, I felt more at ease.

“Here, Soyul.”

“Yes?”

“The alchemist exam… Aren’t you going to play?”

Min So-yul’s knowledge has already surpassed that of most alchemists. Wouldn’t it be a loss for her to remain at the academy?

“uh… Because publishing papers and applying for patents don’t necessarily require an alchemist’s license.”

“But Soyul likes to do research, right?”

Seol Ga-eun remembered her appearance from the Spiral Guild.

Min So-yul, who is immersed and focused on research, and fits well among researchers with whom he can communicate.

On the other hand, what about here?

Compared to the laboratory, the infirmary was shabby, and Min So-yul sitting there alone reading a thesis felt relatively pitiful.

“I like it.”

Min So-yul did not deny it.

He was confident of acquiring an alchemist license right away. He would be able to take his place in the alchemy industry more confidently and faster.

But still, she didn’t.

“Still, the only time I can attend the academy is right now.”

Before meeting Kang Tae-min, I wanted to become an adult early. I wanted to work quickly and get out of the dreadful poverty.

However, after attending the academy, my thoughts changed. Friends were made and memories were made.

“I like now.”

Seol Ga-eun looked at Min So-yul and smiled heartily.

‘I’m almost an adult.’

Children want to become adults early, and grown-up children tend to miss the past.

In that respect, Min So-yul has already crossed the threshold of an adult. However, it was just waiting for the time to stop and move on.

Because I want to grow up together, not alone.

“Yes, it would be better if we all graduated together.”

Once again, she wanted to see the changes made by Kang Tae-min until the end.

* * *

1 week after school starts.

Kang Tae-min went to the principal’s office at Rosalyn’s call. She greeted Kang Tae-min with a bright smile.

“Ah, come on!”

“Did you call?”

“Yes, yes, um, should we sit down and talk?”

“Yes. You see.”

Rosalyn smiled and sat down, but her eyes weren’t smiling.

“Um, calling Mr. Kang is no different… .”

She secretly studied Kang Tae-min’s expression and chose her words. Eventually, with a short sigh, the main topic came out.

“In fact, until now, the special class curriculum was at the discretion of the homeroom teacher… ?”

At those words, Kang Tae-min roughly guessed what was going on.

“Looks like the other teachers are in trouble.”

“Huh, after all, if it’s a chuck, it’s a chuck. This is why I care for Mr. Kang.”

“I was thinking the same thing. The gap with the other classmates was getting worse, so I felt that it would be difficult with the class method of the first semester.”

The skills of the special class students improved day after day. However, the growth rate of other classmates was too slow compared to him.

As in the first semester, even if the students in the special class became the subject of practice in each class, there was nothing to gain from each other.

In the special class, the opponent was too easy, so there was no stimulation, and students in other classes only felt frustrated.

“I’m glad you understand. So what are the other class teachers saying directly?”

However, there was no teacher who could say that he could not cooperate with Kang Tae-min now. I told her to treat me like normal, but I didn’t dare.

Opinions were gathered and conveyed to Cha Dong-hyuk and Rosalyn.

“If it disturbs other students, it is right to stop. We will take action on this right away.”

“Aww, thank you! Oh, and not just because of that.”

Rosalyn took out the folder she had prepared. It was a document related to a friendly match that he had received from Cha Dong-hyuk the other day. External events and sponsorships were all rejected by Kang Tae-min.

“It’s a friendly match request, but I only selected the countries closest to me!”

“Are you representing China, Russia, and Japan?”

It was a request from the representative academies of the three neighboring countries. As the distance was close, the schedule could have been set up quickly.

“By the way, Mr. Kang. Have you decided who to give the remaining representative seats to?”

Two more were needed as national representatives to compete in world competitions. Taemin Kang shook his head.

“Not yet, but it will be a good opportunity.”

“opportunity?”

“We will measure it with this friendly match.”

It was just the right opportunity.

‘Suho can’t show his strength yet.’

I don’t know Rosalyn, but Pyosuho needed a little more training. Johanna’s seal won’t break easily, but there’s no need to risk it.

‘Excluding Suho and putting in three, the number is correct.’

Rosalyn rolled her eyes for a moment at the answer, then shrugged.

“Well, that’s it, I believe that Teacher Kang will take care of it. Then, the problem is which country will accept the friendly match first! This probably needs more time… .”

“it’s okay.”

At Kang Tae-min’s immediate answer, she widened her eyes.

‘Have you already figured it out?’

It’s the first time I’ve brought up the friendly match, but have you already figured out the representatives of other countries?

However, Kang Tae-min’s answer was unexpected.

“Let’s start with the one that can come quickly.”

“Aha… .”

Rosalyn opened her mouth slightly. It was immediately clear to me what was behind the answer.

‘Does it mean that I am confident that I can win no matter who comes?’

To an unfamiliar person, he has confidence that is close to arrogance. However, because Rosalyn knew him, her expectations outweighed her worries.

“Um, okay! Then I’ll send you the friendly match response right away!”

“Yes. Oh, and one more.”

Rosalyn, who was about to get up after finishing her story, hesitated.

“Classes on campus have become difficult, so we will conduct external classes.”

“… An outside class?”

Kang Tae-min had no intention of leaving his students alone.

* * *

“Welcome everyone!”

Jung Joon-hyeok greeted the special class with a cheerful smile.

It was because the guild and Sura-do were the places Tae-min Kang had chosen for outside classes.

“Oh, maybe it’s because they’re the disciples of Teacher Myolak, so everyone’s prayers are different.”

Jung Joon-hyeok felt good.

It was the car that Kang Tae-min did not accept the challenge, saying that he had to focus on his work as a teacher.

‘If it was the other strongest, I would have pushed it somehow… .’

Kang Tae-min was different from the other strongest players. Not only did it not work for such a person, and he could have been completely deprived of the opportunity to challenge.

Then he would be thrown into the desert again.

‘I’m glad you need me!’

However, this class became an excuse to get that challenge. There was no way Jung Jun-hyeok would not be happy with the special class that provided the opportunity.

“I got to see Ko Min-soo and student Inoa again. Are you steadily training?”

“of course.”

“I am doing it thoroughly.”

Both students responded immediately. Haven’t you carved it into your body so much that you can’t forget it even if you try to forget it?

“A greeting is enough. Let’s go.”

At Kang Tae-min’s words, Jung Jun-hyeok smiled again and led them to the pentagonal building. Strangely, it was more heavily guarded than other buildings.

They were motionless, like wooden stones.

“Here, the gatekeepers guarding Suramun. If there is any problem, it will be helpful.”

Anxiety passed across the faces of the students at those words.

‘Is there a problem?’

‘Sam, what kind of training did you prepare… ?’

‘Isn’t Kwon-seong really serious enough to say that?’

Either way, Kwon-seong and Kang Tae-min went inside first. Students followed suit.

Eventually, the students could immediately know that it was an environment in which ‘problems’ would arise.

“Crab, gate?”

“There are four of them… !?”

Except for one of the corners of the pentagonal building, each of the remaining four gates were open.

A barrier forming device was placed around the gate, and flags of four colors were planted next to it.

“It’s just like I heard.”

Unlike the surprised students, Kang Tae-min and Lee Lu-ah were calm. The reason I came here in the first place was because of this gate.

Normally, a gate is formed by distorting space after solving a dungeon break and leaving the core undestroyed.

However, Sura-do’s guild members brought all of the cores to private property.

‘For Sura-do, the gate is just a means for self-denial.’

It was a thought that came to mind because it was Jung Joon-hyuk. It’s no different from holding a bomb that doesn’t know when it will explode, but I didn’t care.

The association also allowed it because it judged that it was safer to manage in Sura-do rather than deploying separate management personnel.

“Someday, I want to secure a code-red level gate, but… Unfortunately, that is difficult.”

But still, there was a law. Originally, Jung Jun-hyeok tried to secure all five stages except Code Black, but the association limited the upper limit to Code Orange.

‘Then that flag… ?’

‘It was meant to represent the grade.’

Only then did the students know the meaning of the flag erected next to the gate.

“Jung Jun-hyeok decided to give us a code yellow class gate for the class. Thank you all.”

Jung Joon-hyeok offered the right to use the gate in exchange for the right to challenge. Both sides were satisfied, but the students were puzzled.

‘Yes, yellow?’

‘Blue, green, yellow… It’s step 3, right?’

In the meantime, Song Dae-beom raised his hand.

“What is it, Song Dae-beom?”

“Oh, sir! Are we going in alone?”

At this, Taemin Kang shook his head.

“As you saw in the strategy practice class, you guys who don’t have the qualifications yet can’t enter the dungeon alone. Guild members from Sura-do will be with you.”

At that, some of the students were relieved. Then, no matter how strong Taemin Kang is, he would not drive the students like this.

“But it’s not like I’m with you as a supervisor like during the strategy practice.”

“… Yes?”

“ok?”

Korean language was always a law that had to be listened to until the end. The relieved students unknowingly made noise.

“It is rather a competitor. Of course, it’s not that I’m doing any direct harm, but it’s better not to expect to help you.”

“hahahahaha, it’s important to overcome yourself.”

As if Jung Joon-hyeok was right, he put in a choo-im-sae from the side.

“The name of this dungeon is ‘Golem’s Cradle’. The monster that appears is a golem, as its name suggests, and your goal is to bring as many drive cores as possible.”

“Other than the gates I picked and picked. Thanks to that, it’s been quite a while since I replaced the yellow class.”

Gates that are not suitable for training are attacked as they are. However, ‘Golem’s Cradle’ was an optimized gate for training.

This was because golems of various shapes and attributes were created, and various strategies could be learned.

“Pyo Soo-ho, tell me.”

Pyo Soo-ho opened his mouth with Kang Tae-min’s permission.

“If there is no supervisor, what should I do in case of danger?”

“It’s self-help.”

Kang Tae-min answered immediately and looked around at the other students.

“There is no rescue team. The only thing you can trust is yourself But if you feel insecure about yourself, you can form a team.”

“team… .”

“However, as the number of team members increases, the loot per person will decrease. That’s why you’ll have to deal with more enemies. Decide for yourself which one to choose.”

Russia’s capital, Moscow.

State Moscow Academy.

A man stood in the center of the training ground.

“Alexei.”

The instructor called him. But he didn’t turn around.

“A reply came from Korea.”

Alexei’s blue eyes were steadfast in the dim passageway ahead.

“It is about complying with the request.”

A faint sound of breathing could be heard from across the aisle. Soon, several red eyes appeared.

“Let’s finish training as soon as possible and wait.”

“All right.”

Along with Alexei’s answer, pale reptilian men jumped out of the aisle.

The Moscow Academy used captured monsters for training.

What’s out now is a group of Lizardmen, one of the highly intelligent monsters.

It is a monster that needs at least an equal number of hunters who are good at cooperating and linking with each other and have excellent physical abilities.

“I’ll be right there.”

Alexei was enough alone.

To be precise.

“frieze.”

he wasn’t alone

When he uttered his will, the white foxes attacked the Lizardmen.

Frost left where the fox had passed, and the bitten Lizardmen hissed and froze.

‘Well… Not good.’

Alexei shook his head and turned around. The white fox, snow and ice spirits accepted that will.

‘Are there good models in Korea?’

Alexei walked after the instructor.

Eventually, with a crisp sound, the Lizardman’s body collapsed. It was so frozen that not a single drop of blood came out.
