chapter 29
12. There are many unusual cadets in the department of liberal arts major (3)
the test has begun
The test time is 2 hours, which is the originally scheduled lecture time.
‘I’m glad it’s not a short time.’
First of all, I ran away from the other cadets as far as possible.
However, it is not possible to clear the current quest just by hiding and wasting time.
I used a brief gap to check the quest notification window.
[Story Quest]——
[Episode 1. Entrance! Theia Academy!]
▶ Quest 1-3
: Succeed in the second awakening through lectures and training of your major department.
[The final quest cannot be cleared.]
: It is possible to clear sub-quests.
▶▶ [Sub Quest 1]
[Hidden titles can be applied.]
——-
The third episode of Chapter 1.
It is literally an event where you have to succeed in the 2nd Awakening.
It is different from the previous quest that ended in one test.
It lasts until the 2nd awakening is successful. this quest.
So the clear reward is quite large.
Above all, the second awakening itself is a great reward.
However, originally, it was a quest that I could not clear.
‘Since I’ve already succeeded in my second awakening.’
Unlike the original An Yu-min.
I already have the seat of the 2nd Power Shadow Mirror.
So I don’t think the current quest has much meaning.
Absolutely not.
I pressed the sub-quest marked in green on the notification window.
——-
[1-3 / Subquest 1]
: Score an In 5 on the first assessment of your major undergraduate degree.
: You can get additional rewards when you rank 1st.
——-
Since it was not a short-term quest, there were sub-quests in each evaluation like this.
‘It is possible to obtain compensation.’
Not only that.
Lectures or training for secondary awakening. That in itself helped me.
‘For the purpose of strengthening the skill of the power in the future.’
Being able to receive the guidance of Instructor Lee Soo-yeon is a great benefit in itself.
I expected more from Lee Soo-yeon than I knew from the original work.
‘This training method from the first lecture.’
If it is a training method using War World. For me, it’s more efficient than anything else.
Hiding in a nearby bush.
I poked my head out for a moment and inspected the terrain around me.
jungle terrain.
Even the terrain was helping me.
Among the many maps in Northern Warworld, it is a fairly difficult terrain.
Just like the original character.
As much as he is the grand master of warworld even in the present reality.
I knew all the caveats of this jungle terrain.
‘No need to hurry. I just need to hide as much as possible and move only when I see the perfect prey.’
You have to achieve at least 3 kills to be certified.
I shouldn’t have been hiding.
There was no need to move too fast.
‘Now the conditions are all the same.’
Class 1 of the 1st year of the department of liberal arts.
All 32 of them connected to War World in Mana Heart interlocking mode.
However, I wonder if Instructor Lee Soo-yeon set it up very well.
All of them were bound by the 1st Power.
In a word, it means that everything is tied except for the basic specs of the Awakener.
For reference, there was no secondary awakening in Class 1.
Even in the high class, there aren’t many secondary awakeners yet.
There was no way that those rare Awakeners could have entered the liberal majors, which were evaluated as mediocre.
rustle-
It was then.
Someone reacted quickly to the trap they had set.
I carefully opened a gap in the long bush and checked who it was.
it’s jeong siwoo
I completely hid my presence.
If it were ordinary sparring or training.
It was like meeting the grim reaper.
Jung Si-woo’s class is a thief. And the power holder of the wind attribute.
That authority was so sensitive that it tracked down the Horror Hall first.
The guy is the bush I’m hiding in.
It came right in front of the three steps.
“Ah, damn it… It’s such a shame that I can’t use my powers.”
But now, Jung Si-woo was different from usual.
The 1st power is bound.
So when one of the five senses suddenly disappears, it’s like a big mess.
The guy seemed to have dulled his senses because his good ears were tied up.
“Is there anyone here? Oh, what is the terrain like? Chew…”
I looked around, but
In the end, that guy couldn’t find me.
‘It’s more convenient to hide the presence because the stats are low.’
I was relieved to see him fall away.
His strength must be over 50.
Even without using authority, he can knock me out with a light straight shot.
‘Well, he’s the one I have to catch today.’
I focused on the magic stone in my hand.
Although the authority was bound.
Professor Lee Soo-yeon handed out 5 magic stones with different properties to the students.
Awakeners have a total of 6 attributes.
Of course, I took out the attributes of the 1st Power, so I gave 5 of them.
It was a very special magic stone.
By containing the Awakener’s mana, he was able to use some of the power of that attribute.
When a certain amount of mana is charged, the skill is activated.
‘Because Instructor Lee Soo-yeon wants to open up the possibilities of other attributes.’
In a word, to test the elliptical fitness of the cadets.
And for me it’s an advantage over any cadet.
In addition to the 1st power of the light attribute already tied.
Because he possesses another power of the flame attribute.

I already own 2 of these.
‘Let’s gradually increase the number of kills.’
I moved my feet carefully.

About an hour passed.
“Keugh… Kkeuk… Sa, save me!”
One cadet was drowning in a swamp and struggling.
It was like a jungle, which is also called the worst terrain in War World.
‘That’s stupid. Of course there’s a swamp there.’
Warworld’s terrain respawns anew every time.
Still, there are some rules.
In the jungle terrain, the water attribute mana density is higher than anywhere else.
There must be swamps.
‘Of course, it’s not easy to detect the mana of the water attribute.’
Unless you are a water attribute awakener.
You need to do water attribute training or special items.
Of course, at the cadet level, you are busy training your main attributes as well.
There is no way to practice other attributes.
So, this is a perfect spot.
The magic stone he was holding was burning hot.
Even though I had no relationship with the water attribute.
I used this flame attribute mana stone in reverse.
Check the mana flowing over a certain period of time. If that mana injection rate is reduced.
Obviously, there is something around that suppresses the flame attribute.
‘The compatibility of the fire attribute is the water attribute.’
Of course, this means that even swamps filled with the energy of water can be found this way.
In fact, my intellect and magical power are not high enough to catch that amount of mana flow exquisitely.
It was not difficult to just check the amount of mana displayed in the system profile.
Fire attribute mana stone.
There, I finished recharging mana.
[warrant]——-
[The power is being activated.]
* Power Name: Burning Fire from Mana Heart (N)
* Attribute: Flame
[Check available skills.]
▶ Active skill
* Fireball (lv.1)
..
▶ Passive skill
* Firepower training (lv.1)
: Fire spells have faster mana acceleration.
——-
A fire that burns from mana hearts, powers made from gold medals as rewards for retesting.
That authority has a useful passive skill called Firepower Training.
‘That’s why the flame attribute mana stone heated up much faster.’
Any magic stone is rechargeable.
So, for the cadets who are inexperienced in mana conversion of other attributes, it will inevitably take a long time.
Of course, there might be a way to give up the skill activation through the magic stone and fight with your bare body.
Of course, even if the skill is weak, the attack on the side with mana is strong.
“bye.”
I aimed at the cadet who had fallen into the swamp.
Fire-
Soon, arrows of fire flew from the magic stone.
“Aww!”
With a bang, the cadet was retired with a sound.
‘See you in this swamp, did you catch all three?’
not bad.
For me, it’s like drinking honey without wasting a little stamina.
‘There is almost no mana consumption.’
If he had used the skill of authority directly, it would have consumed a lot of mana.
However, the only thing I’m ever using is the power’s passive ‘firepower training’.
Of course, you shouldn’t use the active skill of burning fire directly.
I’m not even a magician, I’m the 2nd power of the flame attribute.
It’s actually impossible to complete it immediately with the stats of an incompetent person.
‘Instructor Lee Soo-yeon would feel something strange right away.’
Unknown. My essence as a villain must be hidden from the academy.
The fraudulent skill called Infinite Formation of Authority is too conspicuous.
Unless you’re an idiot, now you have to act natural.
‘The best way is decided.’
Following the current 2nd awakening sub-quest.
And at the right timing when those multiple sub-quests are completed.
Showing the power of burning fire as my second awakening.
The combination of the paladin class and the fire attribute isn’t bad.
It is the best choice for the direction of growth within the academy.
Anyway, to conclude.
Because of my firepower training skills.
More than anyone else in class 1, it means that he has a good offensive means in this test.
‘As long as it doesn’t get raided.’
Instead, my physical ability will go to the goal even if I get hit by just one shot from anyone in class 1.
It was time for more than half of the cadets to retire. It became easier to move.
‘If only the highlands are clearly preoccupied. 1st place is quite possible.’
I moved my feet cautiously, but hurriedly.
***
The first lecture was about to end.
30 minutes left now.
Instructor Lee Soo-yeon, who was freely watching the test with the authority of the game master.
She checked the remaining number of people.
“There are six of us now.”
As expected, the remaining cadets were gathering on the high ground.
He announced that she would cut her own throat as long as she hid on the outskirts.
So avoiding the outskirts and preoccupying a good seat is essential.
And Lee Soo-yeon was closely watching the cadet who was the first to preoccupy the high ground.
‘Lee Jun-woo…’
I’ve already confirmed that cadet in two tests.
However, I was not yet fully convinced of his skills and talents.
If it’s pure skill, of course there are cadets who have already completed the 2nd awakening in the high class.
but a while ago.
Instructor Lee Soo-yeon was surprised to see Lee Jun-woo, who was secretly hiding in the swampy terrain.
‘A paladin, besides the light attribute, other elemental attributes are applied that skillfully?’
He was an Awakener who hadn’t even had his 2nd Awakening yet.
But Lee Soo-yeon saw everything.
How Lee Jun-woo handles the flame attribute mana stone now.
‘If I’m right…’
There were quite a few cadets who showed an unexpected side in this test.
The current Lee Jun-woo was the cadet who most perfectly met the purpose of this test.
