I Became an Academy Fraudster

Episode 43

When I entered the boss door, Jeong Ha-yeon-jo was already there.

“How are you?”

Jeong Ha-yeon looked at me and said.

“…What? Didn’t you catch the boss?”

“Yes. This boss must look very strong.”

Jeong Ha-yeon pointed at the boss.

The size of the boss was huge.

It was a boss in the shape of a giant Minotaur.

At first glance, he seemed to be about 5M tall.

“If you touch this, the boss will probably start attacking you.”

“..So you were waiting to catch it with the next group.”

“Yes. It looks like everyone has come, so shall we start soon?”

“Guys, let’s get ready.”

“Yes.”

When Jeong Ha-yeon spoke, Beccaria raised a shield in front of her.

Edden was standing next to her, casting her spell.

It was probably a supporting magic that improved her abilities.

More than that, Jeong Ha-yeon, can’t you see that in her eyes?

On the boss’s finger was a ring that looked very foreign to say that a monster had it.

It was the original ‘crystal’ ring.

Ah.. It’s not unreasonable not to recognize something.

That ring was too big for the size of the boss’s finger.

It was one of the characteristics of that ring.

It contracts and expands according to the size of the wearer’s finger.

“Hey. Jeong Ha-yeon.”

I said to Jeong Ha-yeon.

“Why? Do Yoon.”

“See that thing on the Minotaur’s finger over there?”

Jung Ha-yeon turned her gaze toward that direction.

“That probably looks like the original ring I saw today?”

“Huh? Really? I can definitely feel the energy emanating from there. It definitely looks genuine.”

“…”

“Certainly pretty is pretty. Really.”

Jeong Ha-yeon looked at the ring with her eyes wide open.

I watched her.

Here, if she clears the dungeon and gets that ring, she will get a clue to her awakening.

She is an essential artifact for her growth.

If she grows up quickly, she will become a great strength when her demise approaches.

“Then shall we begin? Jeong Ha-yeon shot her bow at the Minotaur’s ankle and ..”

I started to explain the Minotaur’s weakness that I had acquired while playing the game.

But at that moment.

[‘Setting change’ – Concern that Jung Ha-yeon’s awakening time will be too early and the difficulty level will be easy. Minotaur’s weakness is removed.]

“…”

f*ck.

“What? What were you trying to say? Do Yoon.”

Jeong Ha-yeon tilted her head.

“Nothing.”

Now that this has happened, she has no choice but to bump into her.

But she was a little worried.

The Minotaur is not a monster that can be caught right now without attacking its weakness.

Jeong Ha-yeon drew the bowstring.

Wedge-

The arrow began to extend towards the Minotaur’s face.

Teeing-

However, the arrow bounced aimlessly.

Even the face with the weakest skin boasted tremendous defense.

Cheer-

The Minotaur, awakened by Jeong Ha-yeon’s attack, screamed.

Bang-

The Minotaur slammed the huge spear it was holding into the ground.

Buss-

The vibration alone made the ground shake.

It was formidable strength.

As soon as the minotaur woke up, the faces of Jeong Ha-yeon’s party members all began to be stained with tension.

They hunched over.

The monster in front of me is not a monster to be taken lightly.

Huwoong-

The Minotaur swung the huge spear he was holding at Jeong Ha-yeon.

Kwaang-

Beccaria raised her shield to block the Minotaur’s spear.

Kwaang-

As Beccaria’s shield collided with the Minotaur’s spear, a tremendous explosion sound was heard.

Beccaria flew away and crashed into the wall.

She couldn’t stand the strength of the Minotaur.

I gulped.

Beccaria is a tank.

The role of a tanker is to receive attacks from the opponent’s monsters.

That’s why tankers’ skills are also focused on defense.

However, even Beccaria, who used that defense skill, flew away at once.

***

Jeong Ha-yeon broke out in a cold sweat.

No matter how much Beccaria was not a top-ranked student at ‘Elpon’ Academy, she was quite famous as a tanker.

However, such a Beccaria was knocked out in one blow.

The Minotaur continued to swing its spear back and forth.

Bang-

Bang-

The speed was very fast.

I was in a hurry to avoid it.

Kwaang-

The entire area has begun to be destroyed.

Jeong Ha-yeon thought.

How can I get out of this situation?

The arrow that had just been shot bounced off the Minotaur without hitting it at all.

Even though it was the face with the weakest skin strength.

“Then I have no choice but to prepare the strongest blow.”

The only solution is to pierce the Minotaur’s skin and deliver a blow.

Kwaang-

This time, Eden was hit by a spear wielded by a minotaur and crashed into a wall.

The number of party members gradually began to decrease.

“Jiyoon. Will you wait until I collect the mana arrows?”

“…Yes.”

Cha Ji-yoon nodded her head.

Charge Yun began to gather his magic into his own hands.

A moment later, a flame-flaming spear began to extend from her hand.

Wedge-

The spear of flame began to fly towards the Minotaur.

Cha Ji-yoon looked at the window of flame without saying a word.

It was the most destructive magic that she could use in her short casting time.

Long casting spells seemed unusable with the Minotaur’s current movement.

Kwaang-

Soon, the spear of flame hit the Minotaur’s ankle directly.

This must be quite a blow.

Kleur-

“!!!”

However, the Minotaur’s ankles are only slightly tanned.

There seemed to be no damage at all.

Bang-

Bang-

The Minotaur started running toward Cha Ji-yoon.

I tried to slow down my mobility due to being sprained, but it failed completely.

Cha Ji-yoon hurriedly began to use other magic.

However, the Minotaur was already in front of her.

Wedge-

Soon the minotaur swung her spear at her.

She closed her eyes tightly.

“…?”

However, even after time passed, she was fine.

She opened her eyes slightly.

There was a crack in the Minotaur’s armor, which had never been cracked.

There was a Minotaur, pushed back, looking at a person.

He was Nam Do-yoon.

Namdo Yoon had his hand outstretched towards the Minotaur.

Cha Ji-yoon smiled.

Has he decided to step out now?

Then no worries.

He must be hiding the power to defeat even that Minotaur casually.

Ugh-

Soon, all the mana gathered in Jeong Ha-yeon’s arrow.

The arrow was dyed golden.

Wedge-

Soon the arrow flew towards the Minotaur.

Pu-wook-

The arrow hit the cracked part of the Minotaur’s armor.

Turn it off-

Red blood gushed out of the Minotaur’s mouth.

There was definitely a hit.

Oooooh-

However, the Minotaur’s eyes began to turn red as if enraged by the blow.

Then he started swinging his spear around faster than before.

Bang-

Bang-

The surrounding terrain began to collapse in an instant.

“hehehehe.”

Jeong Ha-yeon exhaled heavily.

Isn’t that the end?

It was clearly an attack with all the mana poured into it.

However, far from being knocked down by that attack, the Minotaur seems to have only intensified its anger.

Cha Ji-yoon cautiously walked towards Nam Do-yoon.

“…Now you really need to use your hidden power.”

Namdo Yoon looked at her with her expression that she didn’t understand.

That was after he had already used the skill he copied from ‘Urvashi’, the only attack skill he could use.

Bang-

Bang-

The Minotaur gradually started running towards Cha Ji-yoon and Nam Do-yoon.

“..Now you really have to fight. This is not the time to hide your power.”

Nevertheless, Nam Do-yoon did not take any offensive stance.

Cha Ji-yoon tilted his head.

Why aren’t you attacking anything?

He must be hiding his power.

Soon, the Minotaur’s steps stopped in front of Nam Do-yoon and Cha Ji-yoon.

The Minotaur raised a huge spear and swung it at Nam Do-yoon.

Wedge-

A huge spear was swinging at Nam Do-yoon.

However, he wasn’t even thinking about avoiding it.

It’s like a person who can’t even react because he can’t see that movement.

Am I wrong?

Wasn’t the truth that he was hiding his power?

I don’t know about that yet.

But first of all, that’s not the point.

“..You should avoid it. First.”

Cha Ji-yoon said to Nam Do-yoon.

He was my lifesaver.

That was certain.

Just before the Minotaur’s spear struck Nam Do-yoon directly.

Someone’s figure passed them.

Seoguk-

The Minotaur’s head was cut in an instant.

Cha Ji-yoon and Jeong Ha-yeon’s expressions hardened in an instant.

Then he turned his gaze to the man who had cut the Minotaur’s head.

He was wearing a mask.

“Hello? Little ones?”

And the mask seemed to have a voice modifier attached to it, so it didn’t seem like it was the original voice.

Cha Ji-yoon looked at him with tense eyes.

I felt an indescribably huge demonic energy from him.

It is not an opponent that can be defeated.

It was an enormous monster that was incomparable to the Minotaur.

“You don’t have to worry so much. I only came to get this ring.”

With that said, the man removed the ring from the Minotaur’s finger.

“Then I go. Bye Bye.”

With that said, the man walked out of the boss room.

Cha Ji-yoon let out a sigh of relief.

Then I turned my gaze to Nam Do-yoon and Jung Ha-yeon.

“…Huh? Where have you been?”

However, when I turned my gaze, Nam Do-yoon was gone.

Jeong Ha-yeon said.

“…Jiyoon. Nam Do-yoon just chased after the masked man.”

“..What?”

“Maybe it’s because of me. Because I said that ring was pretty, Nam Do-yoon…”

Cha Ji-yoon did not understand her words.

Did Nam Do-yoon go after him because of Jeong Ha-yeon?

“… Ha Yuna. Rather, Nam Do-yoon followed that masked man?”

“Yes.”

“…Ah. So it was.”

It was only then that she understood that Nam Do-yoon neither avoided nor attacked the Minotaur.

He had no interest in the Minotaur from the beginning.

The masked man who just entered.

All my nerves were focused on him alone.

That’s why he had to save his strength to fight him.

“..Yeonah Ha.”

“Huh?”

“…Don’t worry. That person is very strong.”
