I Became an Academy Regular

Magic (1)

beep.

I stopped the treadmill, got down and slumped into the chair. After running for more than an hour at a sprint, sweat is pouring down like rain, and it feels like your eyes are spinning even when you are still.

I’m going to die hard If it wasn’t for his endurance ability, he’d already be lying down and stretched out. On that day, he promised to accompany Noah Park on the expedition, and since then, after school, he has been spending time only focusing on physical fitness.

The name of this quest is ‘Suspicious Village’.

Unlike the first scenario of Meteor Academy, ‘Attack of the Necromancer’, this is the first scenario that takes place outside.

Since this is a fairly large-scale long-term quest, I felt the need for strength and stamina, and I was already training and preparing for a few days before…

‘Isn’t this too much?’

My stats are still strength E– and stamina E-.

After taking the elixir, he didn’t go up a single step.

Originally, I wondered why Seo Ji-han’s stats were unusually high in endurance and low in strength, stamina, and even agility.

However, it is vague to say that it is not a vessel for the awakening, and just looking at the rapid increase in magical powers, the potential of this place was sufficient.

He may have the power of special privileges, but, as Aiden said, he seems to be a really talented person in the field of magic.

‘If that’s the case, should I create a new attack route…’

Since it’s early days, ‘Suspicious Village’ is a quest that two playable characters, ‘Park Noah’ and ‘Rian Arwell’, a basic companion character.

Noah Park receives a request for the first time and heads to the ‘4th Base’, the stage of the scenario. It was a time when the beasts came on a large scale every night, so it was said that the power of the awakened was needed.

If you survive here safely and successfully defend the town, there will be two branches next.

1. After completing the mission, I will go back. – [Quest Complete]

2. Find the cause of the crowds of beasts. – [Identification of cause]

If you select the first, the ‘good tendency’ value will increase and the quest will be completed. However, in the later scenario, the difficulty of the outside increases due to the butterfly effect.

The reason was that the gate was kept open in the basement of the 4th base.

It was also because of the energy flowing out of the gate that the beasts were flocking to. If it is left undestroyed, it will be eroded by the gate after time passes, and the ‘4th base’ will be transformed into an area where monsters ‘respawn’.

For reference, the process of selecting these two branches is slightly different for the Gene Ending route.

Noah Park does not depart in the morning or afternoon of the next day, but goes straight to the 4th base from early dawn. Here you will get soul iron for the true ending, since I got it, the events that occur in this section will be skipped.

Except for the difference of arriving a little early in the morning, near the 4th base, witness the energy of ‘erosion’ flowing from the base and acquire new clues. Here, it is forced to enter the second branch, the ’cause determination’ route.

From then on, there is a difference in the way to kill the villagers or not, but the ending of using Lian Arwell to destroy the gate is the same.

‘Heh. Before that, I’ll have to raise my stats somehow.’

At least level E is required to proceed with the quest, so you will not get tired. He had to rake in the potential of his body that had already been exposed.

There was still time to pass before I could enhance my potential in the tower.

After a bit of breathing, I got up to exercise again. Then I heard a voice calling me from the side.

“Jihan.”

When I turn my head, I see a familiar face. Another protagonist of Class A and their leader, Russell Tales. He is the boy I bumped into at the entrance ceremony last time.

I looked at Tails and he pointed to himself.

“I saw you last time. Do you know my name?”

“Russell Tails… right?”

“Oh, that’s right. I’m sorry, can you spare some time now?”

“What’s going on? I’m working out.”

I asked, wiping my still sweat with a towel, and Tails said with a cheerful smile.

“The line found it.”

After school at Yoosung Academy.

Except for ordinary teachers, the instructors and wizards were all gathered in the conference room, except for those who had jobs in the first, second, and third grades.

Standing in front of them, Jenna Walkers was explaining the development of an unfortunate recent incident.

“─CCTV caught a person wearing the uniform of Yoosung Academy here.”

At those words, the principal of the Yoosung Academy, who was sitting at the center, raised his only arm to the desk and asked in a hoarse voice.

“Is this saying that it could be an aspiring hero’s case?”

“There is such a possibility, but what I want to say is that the aspiring heroes who turned into demons in this mine crisis were victims.”

Hmmm. Jenna Walkers coughed a bit nervously, cleared her throat and spoke again.

“It’s unclear whether this person was accidentally or deliberately captured on CCTV, but it is clear that there is a risk of other victims if this continues. Action must be taken in this regard.”

The principal turned his gaze and said to Choi Ye-chan, who was sitting on the right.

“Instructor Choi Ye-chan. Are you keeping the corpses of demons?”

“Yes, Principal. We are currently keeping it in the basement of the first grade building.”

“The bereaved families are clamoring for the body to be returned quickly. When will your master arrive?”

As I had to solve the case of Main, the corpses of demons such as Gide and Cain were in the state of being kept at the Yoosung Academy after asking for permission from the bereaved families.

However, it was only a few days, and as more than two weeks had passed without any news, the bereaved family gradually lost their patience.

Choi Ye-chan answered with a troubled expression on her face.

“I heard that the situation on the tower side is urgent right now, so I need at least one or two more weeks.”

“Ummm… It’s difficult. It’s impossible to return the body as it is.”

“I will ask Master again today.”

“Yes. Please.”

Choi Ye-chan’s teacher, necromancer Arihan Hector, is a master of ‘Necromancer’, one of the black magic series. He had the ability to awaken the corpse and recognize his memories, so his help was desperately needed in this case. Unfortunately, Choi Ye-chan, a disciple of Arihan Hector, has not yet reached that level.

The principal closed his eyes and opened his mouth to think.

“For now, I’m not going to control access. There are thousands of ways to break through this large lot anyway, so even if you control it, it won’t mean anything to security in the end.”

“Yes that’s right.”

“If that’s the case…, Ttt. Blight, I think my head is going to break.”

The principal sighed and looked around.

“Once we get the results of Instructor Choi Ye-chan’s contact, we can talk about it, so we’ll have a detailed discussion at that time. At least temporarily, increase the number of instructors by two more, and let the wizards strengthen all the security magic around the buildings within today.”

There was a moment of silence, and some people closed their eyes tightly. The principal asked, staring intently at those who had their eyes closed when they saw it.

“Are you kidding me? The answer?”

“All right!”

“Okay… Then let’s end the meeting with this. See you later.”

With that said, some of them got up from their seats, sighing inwardly from the increased work. Leight went up to Jenna Walkers as he watched the people walk away.

“…it’s kind of weird too.”

“It’s the same.”

Layette and Jenna Walkers looked at Choi Ye-chan as she left the conference room. Awesome Hector. The displeasure he felt when he saw the wizard from the tower was also felt by his disciple Choi Ye-chan.

The layer trusts her senses. He was going to act judging him again this time.

“I can’t help it. I’ll monitor Choi Ye-chan for a while.”

“Then what about class organization?”

“There are a lot of people to do but me. It’s not urgent yet.”

Layette if Choi Ye-chan looks suspicious.

‘I’ll make it the same…’

He was going to cut down the same place as the demons who died to him.

Rein Castell was sitting alone in the library with her forehead crossed. It was late, so there were only a few people there.

Castell was still thinking about the events of that time.

‘after. I don’t understand. Why did I do that?’

It is still questionable. At that time, unlike usual, he could not keep his emotions calm.

In the first place, asking Seo Ji-han to show her abilities must have been a little bit of a mischievous declaration. She didn’t want to take it seriously, but from the moment she entered the arena, she suddenly felt a surge of rage.

‘Did I love Ellen that much-!’

In the end, being swayed by that feeling, he made an embarrassing statement not to approach Ellen, and accepted the absurd condition to cast magic as it was.

Even when I’m trying to sleep, when I just remember that, I get the urge to give up on my body pain and kick the quilt with my feet.

The most important match was lost to Seo Ji-han unilaterally.

It was also attacked by weaknesses.

‘The mana of the ice attribute….’

Later, I heard that Seo Ji-han was from Earth. Still, her innate nature of mana gave her a little bit of why she was interested in Ellen.

‘The reason why I said that we should do a match is probably because I know that I can handle water.’

Because the abilities of aspiring heroes of Class A have been rumored to some extent. It has already lost the information power in the dictionary. There was no bitter laugh out of pity.

“line.”

He turned his head when a familiar voice called out to him. There, Tail and Seo Ji-han were coming side by side. Seo Ji-han’s hair was a little wet as if she had just washed it.

Rein Castell sighed and carefully took the magic book out of his bag.

‘I told you to give me one magic.’

If that’s the case, just throwing in a copy of the magic book will satisfy the condition. Because I didn’t mean to let you use magic.

However, it was a frivolous thing that gnawed at the pride of the 7th-floor prince, Rein Castell.

Those who threw a copy of the magic book through such a pun like that would not even be able to interpret it with the magical knowledge possessed by the B-Class from Earth.

In the end, it is said that there is no meaning to Seo Ji-han, who won the bet.

So, from today, Castell was going to teach Seo Ji-han magic. That is the right thing to do for a loser.

‘What. I might shed tears to say thank you.’

Any aspiring hero knows what this means. Suddenly, Seo Ji-han approached Castel.

“Castell.”

“Don’t be too grateful because it’s the result of a bet. You deserve it.”

As Castell spoke with a princely smile, Seo Ji-han’s brow furrowed a little.

“What nonsense all of a sudden. You called me.”

“······yes?”

“I won, did you lose?”

“Then you should come to me directly, don’t you?”

Seo Ji-han said so and pulled up a chair and sat across from it. I glanced at Tail and saw that he was watching to see if the situation was funny. Castel stared at Seo Ji-han, and finally opened her mouth slowly.

“…that’s right. I’m sorry.”

“Well, you know.”

Line Castell hated Seo-han a little more.
