Became a Master of the Academy’s Hidden Skills

chapter 37



Friends were good too.

Kim Seok-cheol was a case where he beat everything into one affair without majoring in pluralism.

His goal is to succeed his father, who is a blacksmith, and make his family into a nobleman.

And the proven ability of being ranked 8th in the grade, enough to make it happen.

These two things could be said to be the driving force and source that made Kim Seok-cheol move.

But these days, Kim Seok-cheol’s main interest lies elsewhere.

‘Lee Seok-hyun.’

Unlike Woo Do-hyun and Yoo So-hyun, they seem like ordinary people who have nothing but a strange sense of distinction.

I don’t know if it’s a case where, like the two mentioned above, they show off their special talents to their heart’s content.

Lee Seok-hyun was a very ambiguous existence.

No one has been able to say exactly how he won first place in Survival, but it doesn’t look like he’s weak when he sees him in a full body battle.

Prof. Hwa-Ryung Lee carefully selected all five questions and took the title of class president very naturally.

‘It’s amazing.’

It must have been the same first admission, but Lee Seok-hyun strangely smelled of an expert.

In fact, it could be said that such an atmosphere made him a class leader.

The most surprising thing here was that he chose a double major.

‘And all three.’

It is very rare for a cadet who double majored in magic, martial arts, and affair and was properly promoted to the grade, so it was common to give up before that.

In fact, there are many cadets who only have a strong passion for learning, so professors examine the qualifications of cadets who want to apply for a double major in the first place very closely.

In the case of Ben Las, he had said it all as he went through a lot of difficulties when choosing to have an affair with magic.

However, Lee Seok-hyun was immediately allowed to take all majors without any investigation.

It was a situation that could be seen as a privilege, but everyone kept their mouths shut because they knew what he was doing.

‘No, I can’t see it as a privilege because I’ve seen it like that.’

Kim Seok-cheol organized his thoughts and headed straight to the blacksmith’s room in the Oedo-gwan.

Originally, the lecture was canceled if only one applicant applied, but this time, there were as many as two more applicants, so the lecture was not canceled.

‘Who is it, are they all children with the same dream of becoming a blacksmith as me?’

Kim Seok-cheol risked his life for the ranking and gave up the 8th place, but he did not think of it as power.

One of his beliefs was that it is only an indicator of his efforts and achievements, and that it should not be discriminated against.

Because of this, I was confident that no matter who came, no matter how many cadets staying in Class F came, they would be friendly.

Maybe because of the difference in skills, I didn’t know that he would implicitly think of himself as a senior.

He entered the blacksmith’s room with a happy imagination.

“Seokhyun-ah, who is here?”

“Not who, but classmates. You don’t even know that?”

“I memorized the wrong person’s name.”

“Proud.”

I could see Lee Seok-hyun sitting in front of the anvil with a serious expression and May-ri behind Seok-hyun with an expressionless expression.

‘What kind of combination is this.’

My mind went blank.

+++++++++++

‘Well, Kim Seok-cheol is here too.’

Fortunately, this part went the way the game intended.

‘I’m nervous because I don’t know what the butterfly effect will be.’

It goes without saying that the more branching a game has, the more difficult it is to predict the future.

In that sense, because there were so many different endings and routes, Pade couldn’t know exactly what would happen with each outcome.

So it was better to do things that had to be done quickly.

‘Kim Seok-cheol is one of the most essential characters for Lee Seok-hyun.’

Lee Seok-hyeon, who was born with only reading hidden skills, needed so-called equipment teething.

It was also a little good cost-effective equipment, not at this level, but at the level of a cheat at all, in order to be able to play the role of a person.

This is because, although monopolizing a lot of skills is a big factor, equipment is also an important factor in the game that cannot be ignored.

In that sense, Kim Seok-cheol was a very good equipment maker.

Starting with the main skill [Blacksmith], [Touch of Masterpiece] and [Soul of a Craftsman], etc.

If it was made by Kim Seok-cheol, he was a person who had to unconditionally get to know each other because most of them received more than excellent works.

In fact, more than 70% of the reasons why I chose Bakhtor’s class was because Kim Seok-cheol listened.

Of course, the remaining 30% was for self-maintenance when the equipment was set up.

“Hello Seok-cheol, you know we’re sitting next to each other?”

“Uh huh, you know.”

“Let’s be friends, let’s be friends.”

“Uh… yes I’m fine.”

Inconvenient moments when we have to break the awkwardness while introducing each other’s names at the beginning of the semester are sure to come.

In this case, the title of class president was very useful.

The best position was the class president, who didn’t feel strange even if he knew his name, and didn’t raise a lot of doubts even if he approached him friendly at first.

“Oh! We’re all here. Then we’ll start the class right away. What’s the name of the new cadet?”

“This is Kim Seok-cheol.”

“Have you ever worked as a blacksmith?”

“Yeah, it’s not good enough, but I can even vaguely do mana forging.”

“Hey, first graders are already learning mana forging? That’s great!”

The conversation seemed like a cheap RPG game NPC, but in a way it was natural.

The combination of a professor who barely escaped from the crisis of class closure and a cadet who secretly respected such a professor was awkward.

As we approached each other too carefully, the conversation became stiff and contrived.

“Well then, I’ll start with a brief introduction.”

Bakhtor started writing in front of the blackboard with an awkward gesture.

“First of all, my name is Bakhtor Vubemus. You can call me Mr. Bak.”

“”Yep.””

“Thanks for the reply, but you don’t have to answer it. From now on, I’ll tell you why we need a blacksmith and what kind of influence it has.”

Bakhtor first conducted the class in a way that boosted self-esteem.

He seemed to be actively considerate of cadets who could be beaten for taking only three unpopular subjects.

How to make and use weapons and how to maintain and store them for a long time, etc.

A basic theory class was conducted to explain what kind of influence a blacksmith can have if he is at a party and the importance of it.

“You might be thinking, “What party does a blacksmith join? But when you go on an adventure, you rarely have a chance to meet a good blacksmith.”

I think the next thing to pick is a blacksmith if the party has all the diltan heels.

He continued to emphasize the importance of the blacksmith and appealed to us how necessary our existence is in the real world.

I was going to keep filling my self-confidence in this way so that I could keep taking the class, but it was to no avail.

‘Even if May-ri doesn’t know, Seok-cheol Kim and I will unconditionally learn.’

It is not meaningless, but Kim Seok-cheol was already full of aspirations for a blacksmith.

I knew the need all too well.

‘The only thing that can strengthen Arachne is Bakhtor in the academy right now.’

There was a way to strengthen it outside, but there were other things to do outside, so it was better to solve as much as possible within the academy before going out.

Unlike the long name, this long weapon, called Arachne’s Breath of Gloves, did not have a long shelf life.

‘In fact, in the early and middle school, it was just self-consolation.’

In fact, from the moment he obtained the title of spider, it could be seen as a short-lived weapon that could be said to have exhausted its utility.

‘It was great when the warden was pampered, but now it’s meaningless the moment you enter the academy.’

If it had been before he got the title, he would still pamper and cherish the weapon, but now he needed to quickly strengthen it.

Even if there was a high possibility that the weapon would be destroyed while strengthening, it had no choice.

‘You have to move as much as possible when you can bring the tempo quickly.’

Bakhtor led us to the anvil, thinking that he would feel bored if he continued to develop the theory diligently.

“Now that the theory is over, it’s time to start practicing in earnest. In the case of Seok-cheol, you can use Mana Forging, so try making a sword by yourself.”

There is no need to rush because you only have to do it until the end of class, and you just have to do it when you can.

As soon as Baktor finished speaking, Seok-cheol Kim nodded with his eyes bright.

Mana Forging.

If the general forging is a form of striking a shape by striking iron, which is full of heat, mana forging is literally carried out in the form of putting mana in a hammer.

There are many effects, but to put it simply, it was an upgraded version of forging.

As soon as the full-fledged training story came out, Mayi stayed away from me and maintained the position of the field trip.

It’s something I’ve felt since taking a theory class, but it didn’t seem like I was really interested in blacksmithing at all.

‘This is not going to follow.’

It was obvious that Mayri also didn’t follow the timetable without thinking, so if it didn’t suit her aptitude, she would change it.

I said earlier that I couldn’t handle mana, so I started forging while sweating profusely in front of the furnace.

Bakhtor looked at me with a ‘what if I quit’ look, but in my situation, it was more burdensome.

Anyway, as a result of pounding the iron hard for an hour like that, I was able to get a result that I was satisfied with.

Tiling!

You have acquired Forging (Beginner).

‘Once we’re done here.’

The basics are all over, and from now on, it can be said that this is the real main.

‘Guinard’s martial arts class and Akasa’s one-man transmission.’

It was a time of serious training.

‘I should go quickly and warm up my body.’

Bakhtor made us quickly put the tools in our hands as soon as class was over.

It was hard, it’s okay if you get used to it, it’s worth it, you have talent

As I was about to go to the Budokan after receiving such a see-off, I saw something in the distance.

“what?”

“Well?”

zombie? vampire? A demon’s attack?

I couldn’t figure it out, but people with pale skin in white robes were walking over there, moaning.

“Vermu-senpai! That’s where Lee Seok-hyun is!”

“I see it! I see it! We’re finally here! Walk a little more!”

“Why don’t you use wind magic to increase your movement speed?”

“Go! How can you do such a trick to bring in a cute junior! Did you forget what Professor Ki Joo-sun said that the important thing is sincerity!”

“Oh sorry!”

It sounds like you said it out loud, but you can hear mosquitoes crowing in the hallway.

‘White gown, ship, vermouth… vermouth?’

The game knowledge I had forgotten came to mind one by one, and I was able to figure out exactly what the situation was.

‘You’re here to recruit me.’

Assuming that rumors of solving the five problems raised by Lee Hwa-ryeong reached the ears of the professors, it was a natural result.

The horse was recruited, in fact, it was kidnapped.

If a crowd like that surrounds a person and says, ‘It’s okay to refuse, let’s go to the lab first,’ who would say no?

“Hey there! Speed up!”

“Everyone, walk fast!”

“I don’t usually walk very well, so it’s so hard!”

“Damn it! Before I came into the lab, I was still able to walk more than 30,000 steps a day!”

“300m must be this hard!”

“Lee Seok-hyun! Who is Lee Seok-hyun?”

As a result of listening to the conversation with all five senses raised as much as possible, fortunately, I was able to find out information that they did not know me well.

It seems that Ki Joo-sun gave me only a name and that I was a freshman, but if this happened, there was only one way.

“Seok-cheol-ah, do you remember the saying to be close?”

“Huh? Uh huh?”

“Friends are meant to help each other, right?”

“yes?”

If I listened to it without the question mark on the back, it was definitely positive, so I opened my mouth after a little distance from Kim Seok-cheol.

“Wow, who is this! This is Lee Seok-hyun, the 6th place in the first year and the main speaker!”

After saying that, he ran away in the opposite direction without looking back.

“I found it! I found it!”

“Hallelujah! Holelujah! Hollalah!”

“Lee Seok-hyun! Lee Seok-hyun! Lee Seok-hyun!”

“You are my slave! You are my rest! You are my vacation!”

“Crazy for you! Crazy for you! Crazy for you!”

“I, what is this, I am not me! I am not really aaH!!!”

Ignoring the noise from behind.

Friends were good too.

There was nothing like this to write as a shield.
