I Became an Academy Fraudster

Episode 25

“Everyone worked hard for a week.”

The homeroom teacher said.

“Wow. I finally have a day off tomorrow.”

“What are you going to do tomorrow? Seoul Go?”

“Good. Let’s go to a listening shop or something. They said they had really good earphones this time.”

The kids were excited about that.

Because tomorrow is Elpon Academy’s only holiday Sunday.

“Come on! Everyone, don’t get too excited and pay attention!”

The eyes of the children were focused on the homeroom teacher.

“You can write your name on the place where you will go to the experiential learning next Monday.”

He hung a large poster in front of the blackboard.

[Region 1 – Exploring coastal dungeons in ‘Busan’ area. – 5 People]

[Region 2 – ‘Chungnam’ area cave tour.- 10 People]

[Region 3 – ‘Gyeonggi-do’ area dungeon tour.-15 People]

“Hey. Where are you going?”

“Chungnam is the closest to here. Isn’t that better?”

“Cole. Then let’s go there.”

Students started to write the name of the area they wanted.

I looked at Lee Ho-jin.

He was sitting still and staring at Jeong Ha-yeon.

It’s as if he’s trying to follow where Jeong Ha-yeon writes.

Kikki-

Within a moment, Jeong Ha-yeon pushed the chair and stood up.

She walked over to her poster and wrote her name in her 1st region, Busan.

Lee Ho-jin, as if she had been waiting for it, she rushed to herself and wrote her name in area 1.

Lee Ho-jin sat down again and looked at Jung Ha-yeon with a shy expression.

“….”

f*ck.

If this is the case, then I have to go to area 1 unconditionally.

Perhaps, if Jeong Ha-yeon and Lee Ho-jin are alone, the probability of him running out of control is very high.

There is probably a 99% chance of going overboard on that trip.

I also quickly went out and wrote down my name in Area 1.

****

I lay in my dorm bed and pondered.

Lee Ho-jin’s movements during the first and second year Dalian days.

That’s not the power you can get by contracting with a lower demon.

At least, it means that the Eojung did not sign a contract with the demons.

In that case, I also need a weapon suitable for that.

As of now, there is no way to overcome it.

I left the dormitory and walked to the express bus terminal.

“One bus ticket to Cheonan, please.”

“Yes. Here you are.”

I got on the bus bound for Cheonan and looked out the window.

Can you come back in time?

I’m already worried.

I know of a dungeon that has not yet been discovered at this point.

That place is the underground cave of ‘Cheonan’.

There is a weapon I must obtain.

The problem is, that weapon can only be obtained by going to the end of the dungeon.

I’m not sure if I’ll be able to return to the academy by next Monday, no matter how tricked I try to get past the monsters.

“The bus has arrived. You can get off now.”

After getting off the bus, I walked into a shady bush.

There was no human trace at all.

There were only thick grass and dense trees.

After walking for about 20 minutes, we came to the entrance of the underground cave.

The aisle was barely wide enough for one person to pass through.

I cautiously moved to the entrance of the underground cave.

I gulped.

I know all about the geography of this underground cave.

Because I played a lot of boring games.

However, the problem is that it takes too long to get to the room with the weapon.

Now it’s Saturday evening. The return time is Monday morning.

Even if I went to a side road where I didn’t encounter monsters, I wouldn’t be able to return to it.

But you have to try it first.

I set foot inside the underground cave.

It was completely dark inside, so I couldn’t see anything.

All you can see is the creepy red eyes of the monsters.

Should we start now?

I tied the laces of my sneakers to run.

That moment.

A voice was heard.

[Who are you?]

…… ?

I shook my head.

Obviously, such an event did not exist when playing the game.

I tried to ignore it lightly and pass by.

But then.

A blue glove floated in front of me.

And that too, with a pure white glow.

Uh. What? Why are you here?

This is exactly what I was looking for.

The thing I had to get and return to the academy.

Why the hell is this here?

[I asked who you are. Who are you?]

This… No way?

Originally, this game has a back setting.

Some of the high-class weapons have the same consciousness as humans.

And they said they choose their masters themselves.

However, the patch was immediately deleted due to the backlash from users.

If you just get it, it’s over. Where else is there such a thing?

But I guess that’s not the case here.

That moment.

Hwaaak-

The underground cave in front of me disappeared and turned into a garden.

And in the middle of the garden was an old man who looked old.

He soon walked in front of me.

“Who are you?”

And there is one more in the back setting.

The point is that weapons with consciousness can see through the lies of the other party.

They can tell whether the other person is telling the truth or not.

“I am currently a student at ‘Elpon’ Academy.”

He looked at me gently.

He nodded as if he had confirmed that it was the truth.

“Then why did you come here?”

“I need a teacher.”

“Why do you need me?”

“That is to exterminate the demons.”

“Does my need mean that you will be my master?”

“Yes. You’re right.”

“Then let’s start by making sure you really deserve it.”

The old man looked at me intently.

Weapons with consciousness can view the opponent’s stats.

It is to directly select the person who will become their master.

The old man laughed.

“But you are terribly weak. You don’t deserve to be my master.”

I think I looked through my stat window.

It is only natural to have such a reaction.

“Even if you become my master, I don’t think you can catch the devil.”

“…..”

“Let’s go back now. I have someone waiting here.”

If you give up here, it’s the end.

I have to do something.

“If I don’t get your help here, this world will perish.”

Really.

If you can’t become the owner of the glove here, you can’t beat Lee Ho-jin.

In the end, Jeong Ha-yeon will die, and if that happens, the destruction of this world cannot be prevented.

The old man looked at me carefully.

“You talk as if you know the future.”

“Yes. I know all about the future. We all know what the world will be like in the future.”

The old man looked at me for a long time as if he was reading my true intentions.

Then he made a startled expression.

“…You really know the future. Could it be… then, are you the ‘savior’ mentioned in the prophecy?”

“Yes?”

What are you talking about?

A savior in the prophetic book?

The old man smiled broadly.

“According to the prophetic book, there is a verse that says that a ‘savior’ who knows the future will eradicate all ‘fiends’ and make this world peaceful. I have been waiting for that ‘savior’.”

A savior?

I’m not like that?

I only know because I played the game.

“Ask me again just once. Do you really know the future?”

“Yes. You’re right.”

He looked at me intently.

Then he grinned.

He seemed to read that there was no lie in my answer.

“At first, I thought there was no one who knew the future, but I thought there really was. Good. Cooperate with you.”

Ugh-

When I closed my eyes and opened them, I was back in the underground cave.

I had a blue glove on my hand.

I originally expected it to take at least 2 days, but this is great.

To get this in less than an hour.

[‘Archimedes’ gloves] (Growth type)

1. You will be able to inflict attacks that ignore the Mine’s defense. (Can be used twice)

However, after 3 hours of use, you will be exhausted.

I came out again less than an hour after I entered this cave.

****

I returned to the dormitory much earlier than expected.

I turned on the computer.

[Real-time search term – No. 1 ‘Oriental’ guild disappearance case.]

Currently, employees in the department in charge of information in the ‘Oriental’ Guild, headed by Ji Yoon-yang Cha, the daughter of the ‘Samhwa’ Group, are missing one after another.

Currently, the police are investigating this case, but it is known that the investigation is going through difficulties as they cannot identify the culprit.

Has it already started?

It seems Cha Ji-yoon’s secretary has started to work.

His purpose is to make ‘Cha Ji-yoon’ completely dependent on himself.

To do so, she gradually begins to eliminate the people who become her hands and feet.

And when Cha Ji-yoon completely relied on herself.

She ends up dedicating ‘Charge Yun’ to herself and her contracted demon.

Because she wants ‘Charge Yun’, the demon she contracted with him.

And he gets the ‘Samhwa’ group in return.

“…Ha.”

That said, there is nothing I can do right now.

There is no way Cha Ji-yoon believes my words and doubts the secretary who has been with me for over 10 years.

First of all, I just have to do my best.
