chapter 23
perfect plan
It was really easy to spread the word.
Hide your presence next to the tired and difficult aristocratic cadets and leave a letter and something to eat.
The important point here is that deliveries must be made strictly according to grade level.
If the order is messed up, the speed of the spread may be fast, but the credibility is bound to be lost.
At least, it was necessary to get the word that it was spread by S-Class.
‘You can’t offer too obvious a reward.’
What if it’s not a ‘highest honor’ but a shop or extra points?
Rather, it was very detailed, so there was a high possibility of suspicion.
I’m only going to raise my vigilance at the thought that I can’t give you something like this all of a sudden.
This was the reason for setting a vague and vague goal.
Nobility cadets filled with a sense of choice would naturally think, ‘It is right to support the nobles as well.’
If so, if you gently scratch the spirit of improvement by citing honor, which is the crystallization of a sense of privilege that only they can share.
‘That’s what happens.’
It’s a good profit!
A sharply forged stone arrow cuts through the wind and strikes the cadet’s forehead in the dark.
Following the verse of the letter stating that honor that can only be found in the darkest places is noble, the cadets make their way through the darkness that cannot be seen an inch ahead.
Every time the sparse moonlight illuminates the face, one by one disappears without a sound.
‘This is the only way I can win without a main skill or a sub skill.’
In order to win with an incompetent ability that can’t use mana and can’t use skills, he had no choice but to actively use the environment.

Judging soberly, at the current level, even when faced with a cadet in the fourth place, victory could not be guaranteed.
Of course, combat is not won just because the number of combat power is high, but it was important to be aware of the situation.
“aah!”
Shoot aa
As soon as the protest was released, the stone arrow hit another cadet in the head.
Noble cadets will never stop walking even when they hear screams around them.
The last line of the letter.
Because there was only one phrase holding them back: “Can you have honor despite the danger lurking?”
Rather, they would be thinking, ‘It’s natural to have this kind of trap to get the highest honor.’
Thinking that the person being beaten is an idiot, and rejoicing that there are fewer competitors to see the cadets drop out.
I keep running with a sense of despair that I can move faster.
But.
‘As expected, the overall speed has slowed down.’
that’s just a thought
Actually they weren’t running.
No, that would be the correct expression.
Thumb thump.
“No, darling darling!”
A cadet who had been walking well was so focused on the arrow that he could not think of the floor being turned off, so he was eliminated.
Of course, arrows alone could not prevent it, so the fact that several traps were installed was shining.
The trap dug hard from the moment they decided to make a plan hides in the dark and quietly waits for the right time.
When you step on a spider’s web, a piece of wood pops up, a stone rolls around, the floor collapses, and so on.
He creates the situation as if he were a knight who spared no effort for his honor.
The reason I can set traps and shoot arrows so boldly is because I trust the professors.
Since the professors were monitoring each cadet, it was clear that they would unconditionally return them before they were seriously injured.
Knowing that he did not die, he was able to set up a trap that could actually kill him.
The prepared trap was not all.
The best trap I’ve ever made, that’s it.
“Idiots! I’ll go first! Accelerate!”
“Where are you going! You can never go alone!”
“Do you think I’ll let you go?”
“Aww, what’s this!”
The nobility was itself.
‘Is there any way these guys who are aiming for the same goal can become colleagues?’
They weren’t cooperating, they were literally just ‘walking together’ in a relationship.
It was proof that he did not help even if he was caught in a trap, and that he was happy when others fell.
In such a situation, one person is trying to get ahead by using skills? That was absolutely unacceptable.
The position is discovered due to the limitations of the first year that he cannot use his skills if he does not speak out.
The aristocrats who heard the sound decided to keep it in check.
You can’t move fast, it’s dark and it’s hard to avoid traps, and the pressure of having a competitor everywhere.
These three conditions were too difficult for a young 17-year-old to go through.
But in the end, over time, a winner will appear.
Only then do they realize
“What, nothing!”
that he was deceived.
And that moment was when I carried out my final plan.
“That bastard!!!!!!!!!! He has the most noble!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!”
Spreading false information with a spit-out voice.
The cadet, realizing that he has been deceived, creates a misunderstanding and spreads it before saying anything else.
He changes his mind from ‘Really?’ to ‘Does it exist?’ and fills the desire to take it.
It does not end here, but he repeats the same sound over and over again so that even commoner cadets can hear this fact.
By referring to the unspecified target of that child, he made all the cadets around him suspicious and dropped the seeds of war.
It wasn’t a lie, and the commoner cadets, who thought there was something there, gather at the place where the noble cadets are.
If this happens, the tired aristocratic cadets will be attacked by commoner cadets who are resting relatively comfortably.
‘Then naturally, the ranks of nobles are lowered, and the ranks of commoners are inevitably higher.’
Even the traps were activated by the noble cadets eagerly eliminated, so commoner cadets did not get caught in the trap.
Moreover, unlike the nobles, commoner cadets did not see each other as enemies.
Because it was a situation in which it was clearly revealed that he had the highest honor as a ‘noble cadet’.
‘The commoners aim at the nobles, but the nobles cannot aim at the commoners.’
Only one person wins the highest honor.
Nobles cannot cooperate and aim for each other, and commoners dig into the gaps of such aristocrats and eat them.
‘It is perfect.’
The most interesting thing about this situation is that the atmosphere of war will surround the uninhabited island.
If all the cadets, who had entered a lull, come forward and fight, the fighting spirit that was not there is bound to burn.
What’s more, since you’re at an age where you’re easily influenced by those around you, you’ll quickly get into the mood.
A cry of victory and a cry of defeat.
These two fill the island and frantically expel dropouts.
‘Good.’
Now that you’ve made such a wonderful embers, the firewood will keep replenishing itself.
Without watching the situation, it was obvious what would happen, so I left.
No, I was trying to get away.
If it weren’t for her,
“Mary, don’t hide and come out.”
“…how did you know?”
Because you’re the only one who doesn’t care about the current situation.
‘Shinmibi’, an absolute geek who lives a life completely unrelated to the world.
There was no way that she, who was born there, could be drawn to such worldly values as the noblest honor or victory.
The only one out of 1,523 whose plans don’t work.
That was Mary.
“It’s hard not to know how much mana oozes out.”
“Can you feel the mana of nature?”
“Huh? What do you mean? Nature’s mana?”
“Ah… it’s okay if you don’t know.”
Lee Seok-hyun is a character with high expectations for growth in the latter half of the year, so he needs to make up for the lows in the early stages.
And complementing the low point included raising Lee Seok-hyun’s individual ability level, but also learning how to deal with it.
‘It’s because Mary’s case is special.’
A deceptive main character who can’t even play an opponent without natural mana.
With a small and compact body shape at 131 cm, and a sleepy face, he has a languid movement.
You might think that she is weak from the outside, but she is a strong person in the first year and second place.
‘Of course I expected to meet.’
When I gathered most of the cadets with honor or something, of course, I knew that if it was Mary, she would come to me.
I’m not interested in the situation, so naturally the mastermind was curious.
“So why are you here?”
“yes?”
“Why did you come, there must be a purpose for me.”
She thought about how to deal with Meiri hundreds of times, but she did not come up with a specific answer.
Shin Mi-bi was that special, and her personality itself was unpredictable.
Even when playing directly, it was not once or twice that he moved at his own pace rather than following his options.
“…Aren’t you embarrassed?”
“Why should I be embarrassed when I’m talking to my classmate?”
With those words, I approached her very naturally.
I can’t hear well when I’m talking from a distance, so I put on an expression that I want to have a conversation up close.
Carefully, sneakily, without even hinting at living with pure intentions.
‘Mayri doesn’t consider me a beast anyway.’
There was no way that she, who had communicated with many animals in Shinmibi, could not be suppressed.
Rather, even Woongbak might have hugged him as a cute teddy bear.
‘Mary, it’s a big mistake that you didn’t learn to doubt people.’
The question that Mary asked at first.
There was a reason why he was consistently ignorant about whether he could use nature’s mana.
‘Because I’m not stupid enough to tell my competitors what I can do.’
Of course if she knew that I could use Nature’s mana.
With common sense, Mayi might have been wary of my approach.
Then, of course, there will be no gaps, and the chance to defeat her will never come.
“It’s usually like this… If you get caught, you’re embarrassed. Isn’t that what black screens are like?”
“You don’t see me as a bad person, do you?”
“…I’ve never seen it that way.”
Mary’s pure white skin shone in the moonlight.
Pure eyes that are not tainted by the world and gestures full of curiosity about the new world.
Her clenched lips indirectly indicated how many things she wanted to ask.
As I started my full-fledged academy life after being in Shinmibi, I’m sure there were a lot of questions about it.
I could understand enough.
“Is there anything you want to ask me?”
“yes?”
First of all, it was important to open a conversation and approach it kindly.
That way you won’t have any doubts, so I’ll firmly believe that you’re a kind person.
bum bum bum bum
“No, because there are many faces that I want to ask you.”
“Ah…Tina? Actually, that…”
“Before that, I have one thing to tell you, is it okay if I tell you first?”
“Huh? Uh…”
As soon as she realized she couldn’t use nature’s mana, her vigilance was lifted.
And I approached her very naturally through conversation, and with that, the match was already over.
Innocent May-ri, when you lived in Sinmibi, no one tried to deceive you, and everyone would have treated you with sincerity.
But this was Mirinae Academy, not Shinmibi.
“Life is practice.”
“Uh… uh… uh…?”
The reality was sometimes cruel.
puck!
no matter how strong the enemy.
If you put a single shot of the regime that puts all your strength into a body that doesn’t even have mana on it.
“I’m… a bad person…”
dump.
Of course he was going to fall.
Mayi, who did not even complete the sentence properly, was eliminated.
“A large number of nobles were eliminated, more than half of the commoners were eliminated, and the first year and second place were eliminated.”
As I pondered the outcome of this plan, I smiled genuinely.
The operation was a great success.
