I Became an Academy Fraudster

Episode 16

“Guild leader. They say they just arrived and entered the warehouse.”

“Yes. I’ll be there soon. Hyewon, let’s go too.”

“Yes.”

Kim Ha-yoon and Jin Hye-won were heading towards the guild warehouse the three of them were heading to.

“…Hey, the guild leader?”

Jin Hye-won tilted her head.

“Why?”

“Can I ask you something?”

“Yes. Of course. What?”

“…It is true that the movement of the devil has stopped, but it cannot be concluded that Nam Do-yoon did it, right?”

“What.. Right?”

Hayoon Kim also nodded.

There was only one CCTV video nearby.

It was because the other CCTVs were cracked because of the magic that Mine spewed out at the same time as the runaway.

That’s why I was only able to find a video with Nam Do-yoon and Jeong Ha-yeon.

“There is a possibility that a dragon in camouflage, which was not recorded on CCTV, happened to pass by and found the mine and stopped it.”

“…..”

That’s a very unrealistic statement.

However, it was more realistic than saying that a human could control the devil’s demonic energy and stop her movement.

“But what if he did it?”

“……Too unlikely.”

“However, if this is true at all costs, he is one of the talents we need to capture.”

“…..”

“We have to make a good impression on him so that we can have an advantage when scouting later. I caught mine, but I threw a few million won with my daughter as a reward and it’s over? What do you think of our guild?”

“But, aren’t there treasures worth tens of millions of won in the guild storage? If that day comes…”

“Hyeyeon-ah.”

The guild leader put his hand on her shoulder and said.

“Yes?”

“Don’t worry. Because at the student level, there’s no way you have the eyes to pick it up.”

“..So why did you decide to open the guild storage?”

“Yes. As a reward, we even open a large Guild Storage. I can give you this impression. Instead, what the students take is only a few hundred thousand won.”

“In a word, we can take care of our image and keep our silence at a low price, so it’s a benefit, right?”

“Yes.”

Soon Ha-yoon Kim and Hye-won Jin arrived in front of the guild warehouse.

I nodded with my homeroom teacher who was watching from a distance.

*****

I entered the guild storage and started looking around.

This is an unexpectedly huge harvest.

Originally, this event is a reward you receive after joining the ‘Crystal’ guild and playing on the battlefield for the first time.

Originally, it would be a very distant future from now.

You have to graduate from the academy and join the guild.

But now, that time has come forward a lot.

It’s full of items that most of us wouldn’t have if we gave them away.

When I was playing for the first time, I also chose a lot of weapons that I wouldn’t have even if I did.

However, after playing multiple rounds, I quickly learned which weapons are good here.

Of course, the items in the guild storage here are not very good.

That’s because they already use and own the incredibly good stuff.

Nevertheless, befitting the No. 1 Guild in the rankings, you can easily find items that cost tens of millions of won.

And I know what it is.

“Ha… No matter how I look at it, I don’t know?”

From the side, Jeong Ha-yeon sighed.

“Hey.”

“Why”

She said in a cold voice.

It seems that he has decided not to act in front of me anymore.

As long as I’m caught, I’ll do as I’m comfortable in front of you. Is this

“Pick up the ring in front of you there.”

“Why? What is it?”

“Just pick it up. You don’t know what’s good anyway.”

“Do you want to die?”

However, she didn’t get angry for a while, and as I said, she obediently picked up the ring.

“Whoa.”

Kim Hye-yoon, the leader of the ‘Crystal’ guild, who was watching this scene from behind, approached me.

“He’s a pretty funny guy, isn’t he?”

She grinned and looked at me.

The accessories I recommended for her are those that accelerate her magic recovery.

When that happens, she will be able to shoot her magical arrows for a long time.

It’s not that expensive, but she was a must-have accessory for her.

And I…

I looked around.

And then he grabbed a sword that looked shabby.

That moment.

Hyeyun Kim’s expression hardened.

“…..Student Doyoon Nam, are you really going to choose that one?”

She said in a trembling voice.

I grinned.

Looking at her reaction, I guess I made the right choice.

“Yes. You’re right.”

I laughed.

“It’s a shabby-looking knife, but is it really okay to pick it out?”

Her voice continued to tremble.

“Yes. For me, this is enough without greed.”

“Ah! If so, what can you do? Nam Do-yoon student. Is that what you choose?”

“Yes.”

“Then you can take it. See you next time!”

She forced a cool expression and waved her hand.

At a glance, I could see my stomach bubbling over.

I bowed my head and started going out of the guild with Jeong Ha-yeon and her homeroom teacher.

Push-

At that moment, I heard someone collapse behind me.

“Ki… Guild leader.”

Next to her, Hyewon Jin ran to her.

I got into the car with my homeroom teacher and Jeong Ha-yeon.

The homeroom teacher said.

“Any way you look at it, it just looks shabby, so why did you choose that?”

Jeong Ha-yeon also made an expression that she didn’t know.

“Ah… This one.?”

In fact, this shabby-looking sword was the one that General Gyebaek used while alive.

Considering its historicity, its value would be tens of millions of won.

I grinned.

****

I was lying on the dorm bed.

I felt desperate while dealing with Mine today.

[Skill 3 – Be able to control the actions of demons possessed by demonic energy. (Condition: Limited to mines that have been face-to-face for more than 1 minute.)]

(As the skill level increases, the stopping time increases.)

I couldn’t react to the demon’s movements at all.

There was nothing I could do other than just watch Jung Ha-yeon and Ma-in fight in a daze.

Until the activation time of this skill 3 is reached.

Right now I am so helpless.

If Jeong Ha-yeon hadn’t lasted one minute, I would have died as well as Jung Ha-yeon.

The most fundamental problem lies in my pitiful stats.

Tee-Ring-

A blue window appeared before my eyes.

[Stats]

Power-1

Agility-1

Stamina-1

HP -0 (+1)

This is an unparalleled stat.

Just considering that the average of the cadets is 10 Strength, 10 Agility, 10 Stamina, and 10 Magic points, you can see how bad I am.

It’s just that the skill was so fraudulent that I was lucky enough to hold on until this point.

There are many ways to raise stats.

Among them, the best way to raise in the short term is to take the ‘Elixir’.

When you take an elixir, your stats increase temporarily.

If that happens, future battles will be much easier.

I entered the auction site.

Search [‘Less Flask of Agility’. (The item does not exist.)]

As expected, the elixir is not even listed on the auction site.

Elixirs are very hard to find in this world.

There is a limit to the amount a single elixirist can produce, but it was only natural that there were many people who wanted elixirs.

Therefore, the only way to obtain the elixir was to make a face-to-face contact with the elixirist and receive the supply.

The problem is… The point was that the magicians all lived in one village.

Besides, the village is guarded by the government. Since occultists were so rare, it was a measure to protect them.

So, to enter the village, you need some kind of membership.

The problem is that this membership is very difficult to obtain.

Whether it’s holding a lot of power in politics, or being the president of a company that’s quite famous in the world.

This is because only the highest level can receive it.

Even in the ‘Elpon’ Academy, which is attended by many of the best children in the political and religious world, the number of children with membership was very rare.

Issuing memberships was that tight.

It was natural that he had no relationship with me at all.

“Hmm… “

Originally, it is correct to give up the elixir.

However, it was such a waste.

It was because there was nothing worth raising stats in a short period of time.

Tee-Ring-

A notification went off on my phone.

What is it? I can’t reach anyone?

[‘Cha Ji-yoon’ – Hey…The weather is nice today. (Corn the squirrel wearing sunglasses from a sunny place)]

In the text she sent, out of the blue, there was a story about the weather.

How should I reply to this?

I couldn’t come up with an appropriate answer.

I want to say that I don’t text like that.

[‘Nam Do-yoon’ – Ah. Yes. The weather today is pretty cool and nice.]

[‘Cha Ji-yoon – …….]

She didn’t reply for a while.

She won’t know how to respond to the same text I sent her.

And why is the sun so bright? It is pouring rain outside now.

There was no reply from her for 20 minutes.

Then the alarm sounded.

Tee-Ring-

[‘Cha Ji-yoon – Yes…The weather is nice. I sent you a text message, but I was wondering if you know anything about the ‘Deep Forest’ dungeon… (Squirrels put their hands together and pray)]

Now let’s get to the point.

I know about the ‘Deep Forest’ dungeon because I read an article in the morning.

This is the second dungeon to be attacked by the ‘Oriental’ guild, which she is the representative of.

Of course, since that place was also an undisclosed dungeon, it was clear that there would be no information yet.

[‘Nam Do-yoon’-Yes. Of course I know.]

[‘Cha Ji-yoon’- Then maybe ]

Then maybe? The message was cut off there.

Did you stop playing?

[‘Cha Ji-yoon- can you tell me? (Squirrel bowing emoji)]

I peek laughed.

It was quite unexpected to use such a cute emoticon for her personality.

[‘Nam Doyoon – Yes. Of course, I can tell you, but I also have something I really need.]

[‘Cha Ji-yoon’- what is that?]

[‘Nam Do-yoon’ – You need a membership to enter the ‘Elixir’ village.]

Cha Ji-yoon did not have an answer for a while.

About 20 minutes later, the reply came again.

[‘Cha Ji-yoon’ – I can’t transfer my membership, but I can go with you as my companion. (Con the squirrel winks his eyes)]

I decided to accompany her to the Elixir Village.

By the way… I can’t get used to this emoticon she uses.
