Became a Dark Merchant in the Academy chapter 118

118 – Academy Competition_5

The winning pair in the pair division of the Fall Mutu Festival is Olivia Pair, Seonghyun Lee. All-‘

It was definitely something to be happy about.

However, I couldn’t help but be happy.

That he won. It was because he was overjoyed as if being recognized was his job, but the more he rejoiced, the more he drifted away.

That’s why no, he worked hard even before that.

“hehehehe.”

Several months of self-motivated training.

Han Yu-ri let out a heavy breath and stopped her running body.

Then she looked back for a moment.

On the early winter dawn track that hadn’t risen properly yet, I couldn’t see anything, let alone a person.

Since it was early in the morning when the cold wind was blowing hard, it was natural, but Han Yu-ri felt uneasy about her.

It wasn’t just because the cold wind brushed through her sweat-drenched body, bringing a chill.

Darkness, the dawn before dawn.

Because what was seen and what was coming seemed to tell of what would happen in the future.

No matter how hard she tries, she can’t get everything done.

‘…No.’

Han Yuri shook her head.

If she had time to think about it, she should have focused on improving her skills by running one more lap.

She had to improve her skills if she wanted to be by his side.

‘The representative will go to class A in the second year, right? I’m envious.’

‘I’m sure, they say you can’t refuse a grade change like you did when you were promoted.’

She heard a story going around somewhere.

‘If that’s the case, are we going to have nothing to do with the CEO?’

‘But that’s probably not the case. There is something called friendship. And do you think the CEO will discriminate against you because your class is different?’

‘I’m sure that’s true, but it’s probably too much for now.’

Terrible small talk.

But reality is starting to happen now.

Because it’s only half divided.

I know you can see it whenever you want to.

There is no way to know that when one or two differences begin to appear like this, they gradually become farther apart as time goes by and eventually you will not be able to see them.

Moreover, rivals are on the rise.

I hate to admit it, but looking at it objectively, they are better than Yuri Han.

They fill the surroundings.

Someone got away.

If I can’t even see my face anymore.

Can it be the same then as it is now?

‘…’

Emotions are infinite, although some say.

I know that’s not the case.

The world is neither a dream nor a fairy tale.

There is no unbreakable dream, and even if the front story ends happily, there is no guarantee that the back story will be happy.

Love is favor.

It is a momentary fever, and a momentary shaking.

I know.

But I didn’t want to give up now.

‘It’s not the limit yet.’

From noble mtl dot com

You can try a little harder.

Han Yu-ri took a deep breath.

So she gathered mana again, strengthened her body, and started running.

“Nice to meet you all. It would be a short meeting, less than three days. My name is Lee Sang-cheol, the drill instructor who will be in charge of this training camp.”

Despite the fact that it is daytime, in the forest where even the light cannot be seen because of the densely packed trees. A muscular man in a black guerrilla instructor’s uniform looked at the cadets and raised his voice.

“Everyone will be confused. I came because it was said to be a training camp, but I came to this forest.”

A few of the students nodded at Lee Sang-cheol’s words.

I participated in the camp because of the compensation I received for participating in the camp, but I did not know why I came here.

“There is nothing wrong with the place. This is the lodging place. We will camp here for three days from now on.”

“Yes? What is that…”

“This is a training camp?”

“How about lodging?”

“Couldn’t it be… you mean staying here for three days?”

The cadets seemed to be disbelieved by Lee Sang-cheol’s words, and they immediately started to get excited.

That’s also true. When it comes to training camps, it’s natural to talk about staying in a building where accommodations are provided and doing training together.

No matter how much I looked around, I could only see a forest, let alone a building for lodging, and it was safe to say that the cadets were naked with only clothes on.

“This is the right place to camp, and staying here for three days is also right. You guys will spend three days here naked. That is the content of the camp.”

“Then how do I get food and water?”

“It is self-sufficient.”

“Where is the accommodation?”

“This is it.”

“No, if this is going to happen, tell me in advance…”

Whether he believed or not, Lee Sang-cheol calmly told the truth.

The cadets were confused by Lee Sang-cheol’s answer.

“I remember you were not forced to participate in the training camp, right?”

Lee Sang-cheol reacted as if he was dumbfounded.

“Still, since this is the academy schedule, can’t we notify you in advance? It is too sudden.”

“Cadet Park Kang-cheol, work always comes suddenly.”

“No, even if it is…”

“You can go back if you don’t like it. I have no intention of forcing it.

Of course, in that case, you just have to remember that you will not be able to attend the training camp.”

“But…”

“Other cadets do the same. If you don’t want to do it, you can go back.”

“…”

As if he had nothing to regret, Lee Sang-cheol gestured to his cadet to let him go.

Then the cadets stopped their hesitant mouths of displeasure.

Most of the cadets who participated in the camp were those who participated because of the benefits of participating in the camp.

However, it is said that if you do not attend, you will not receive the benefits, so it was because I could not bear to say that I would not attend.

“I understand that there are no cadets who will not attend.”

End of silence.

Lee Sang-cheol started to continue his words.

“Then, I will explain the training camp. First, the rules are as follows. You guys go out of this forest for three days…”

‘As expected.’

I nodded as I listened to Lee Sang-cheol’s explanation.

I remember that there was no such content in the original work, but considering the place and method of the academy competition and the explanation in the previous call, I could roughly guess the reason for this training camp.

Perhaps a temporary experience.

Even if there is a non-disclosure contract with people who know the contents, not all actions themselves are prohibited. The intention was to create an environment similar to the place where the competition was held around this area to experience a little bit of the content and rules of the competition.

At the same time, it also fosters a cooperative spirit. It was an intention to make the cadets who were not tolerant of this sort of thing adapt to it.

If it’s a foul, it’s a foul, but according to the professor’s explanation before, other than Laplace Academy, other academies were doing similar things, so it wasn’t a big deal.

Rather, now it is fair.

Even if you try to get the book there, someone here will have to tell you about it. I made him an accomplice while giving him a huge benefit, and made me shut my mouth, so there was no way I could reveal this here.

In the first place, it was ambiguous because it could be said that something like survival coincided with voluntary participation, so there was no big problem.

“…In case of an emergency, you can put mana into the distributed items. I will finish the explanation above. Then, I wish the cadets good luck.”

Lee Sang-cheol, who finished the explanation, disappeared like the wind.

However, seeing the presence from a distance, it seemed that they were secretly monitoring it.

I wondered if the reason was probably to intervene in case of a problem.

‘I’m not taking care of the kids on the picnic.’

It was funny that he was taking care of grown adults, but it was natural that the academy was not a Spartan training center.

‘It’s annoying, but it doesn’t seem to be a problem.’

Lee Sang-cheol’s level is roughly A-grade or lower.

At that level, working out of sight is not a problem.

Because there is teleportation in the first place, no matter what you do here, you won’t be discovered.

I looked at the group of cadets who couldn’t have a proper conversation, giving off awkwardness to each other after Lee Sang-cheol left.

The number is six.

A 4th year cadet who is the winner of the Ishiana Individual Competition with a taste to personally aim for. There was no Chun Yoo-seong, who was unable to appear in the academy due to overdoing it in the last Marie kidnapping case, but it didn’t matter.

For some people, the benefits of participating seem like a big deal, but for others, it’s just that.

Still, if I were included, 7 out of 10 people participating in the competition were gathered, so this was enough.

“Now what?”

“I have no choice but to spend three days here. If you leave this forest, you will be treated as a non-participant.”

“Ah, sir… I would have brought something if I had known this.”

After Lee Sang-chul disappeared.

As if embarrassed, the cadets began to talk about the situation at Danggeum mixed with dissatisfaction.

It was a natural reaction when he told the cadets, who had never suffered properly in civilization, to survive in the thick winter forest for three days without any tools.

“So what?”

“Shouldn’t we find a place to stay for three days first? In this state…”

“Rather than that, shouldn’t we prepare drinking water first? If it’s 3 days, it’s enough to survive without food. They say it’s hard without water.”

“Water… Is there anyone in the magic world who has learned water magic?”

“Isn’t it better to move first and find a place to stay rather than water?”

“It’s colder than that, so how about starting a fire?”

“Agree, from fire…”

“Rather than that…”

Still, the cadets must have realized that they couldn’t just continue talking about their dissatisfaction.

But there must be someone who has done a survival game like this to come up with a sound idea. Since they were all newbies, they had no jaw to come up with good ideas.

I know I have to do something.

It was because I didn’t know how to do them or why to do them.

That’s why the cadets presented opinions they thought were right. Wanted to run again.

“That’s why it’s better to prepare a place to stay first. Isn’t it a bit harsh to say that you have to start with water?”

“Don’t you know the rule of 333? It is common knowledge that a person is dangerous even if he does not drink water for three days.”

However, the more opinions came out, the more the conflict was expected.

If there was a leader, it would have been able to control the traffic somehow, but he wasn’t either.

“A person with mana ability can’t last even 3 days?”

“That’s not what I meant. I mean, it’s very common sense. And since I’m a senior, in my words…”

“Isn’t it a bit much to campaign for being one year older?”

“What?”

At first, it must have been a discussion about the direction of survival, but it seems to be getting more and more muddy as time goes by.

It was just the right time.

‘Then let’s start.’

I approached the group with a moderate smile.
