023. final exam (2)
“Do you really have to go? Now that the final is over, let’s just rest. huh? Beer party tonight! beer! beer!”
Hoya talked hard, but no one responded. The sarcastic Hoya grumbled, sticking out his mouth.
I’m sorry that I lost to Fonte, but I also don’t like Ackerman’s insistence on going to find Professor Deiane. I want to whine like crazy!
“Something must be strange.”
Ackerman said he didn’t care if Hoya whined or not. His keen intuition clearly tells us that something is wrong.
“Professor Deiane didn’t come out today. Does it make sense for the professor to miss the final exam?”
“Looks like you’re sick.”
Hoya countered as if it was not a big deal. Cain and Ponte were expressionless.
“Am I the only one feeling weird right now?”
Ackerman was confused.
We need to figure out what Sianna’s kidnappers are after. It’s embarrassing that Siana’s safety isn’t fully guaranteed yet.
“Siana. What do you think?”
So, be brave and ask. Siana, who had been silent, was slightly surprised by Ackerman’s question.
“uh? Well. It’s not that I’m weird, I’m worried about the professor… … ?”
I wonder how unwell I was, so I wouldn’t even attend the final exam.
The Professor Deiane she knew was not one to miss such a big event. He is a person who will participate even if he forgets the pain due to alcohol.
Besides, the magic I felt for a moment… … .
More than anything, that worries me the most.
The more I thought about it, the more it wasn’t normal.
“Um, then. Do you want to decide with rock-paper-scissors?”
Shiana suddenly made a sound like a chump.
“ha. yeah let’s go, go let’s hurry up before it is done.”
Hoya lowers her head. For Siana to go that far means to go. It’s hard to say no. Shiana is a girl who will first punch you and then, with a smile on her face, will silently threaten you with scissors.
‘Sianna is scary… … . Still, maybe we can get to know each other a bit this time?’
Hoya was delusional by herself.
“Cain, Fonte. What do you guys think?”
Ackerman grew more serious as time went on.
I have no idea how Cain feels.
Cain chewed the inside of his lips.
‘now… … You can’t show off.’
It’s not noble to be depressed in front of an opponent just because you lost in a fair match. He only bit his lips.
Resentment and resentment should be relieved only when you are alone.
She took a deep breath and said. Let’s think.
“Then there was a strange noise. If that has anything to do with it, the professor’s condition might be serious.”
It is a rational judgment.
The more I thought about it, the more I couldn’t let go of that grievance.
Ackerman is right.
“let’s go. I’m just going to check it out.”
When Cain made his decision, Fonte nodded along.
‘I want to see Aren’s sparring, but I can’t help it.’
My best friends are begging me this much, but it’s not Ponte to ignore.

“Me, professor? Are you inside?”
The magic crystal at the entrance is a blue light today.
However, the five people, including Ackerman, immediately noticed that something unusual was happening.
From the purple light leaking through the cracks in the professor’s room, to the tremendous concentration of magic power and stench.
ugh
Besides, there is a strange noise coming out.
“This, what the hell is this?”
Tak tok tok tok tok!
Hoya’s chin trembles like crazy.
The cowardly Hoya instinctively sensed ‘danger’.
Cain and Fonte have already drawn their weapons.
It’s been a long time since I’ve forgotten that I’m in the worst mood right now.
We must overcome the crisis we face.
thud-!
thud-!
Mana fluctuates violently.
Something is happening inside.
“I need to inform another professor soon… … !”
—–!
Before Ackerman could finish his words, Deiane’s office exploded.
Magical power burst out and blew everything around.
‘Aagh! Hey, are you going to die like this? me?’
As Hoya thought, he noticed that he was fine. Not even a scratch was left in the explosion.
Looking up, he realized that a silver-haired woman was blocking his way.
Wiing. Wiing.
And in front of her outstretched arms, two layers of octagonal barriers were formed.
Shiana protected everyone with her barrier magic!
‘Is it barrier magic… … ? uh, awesome… … !’
Hoya was involuntarily amazed. A barrier that was this powerful in that short moment.
“Hoya! Yanmar! Wake up!”
Ackerman shouts. Only then did Hoya come to his senses. When I came to my senses, the existence that caused the explosion entered my field of vision.
aaa with him!
“Aww. What else is that?!”
Humans are human, but not human.
Its skin, like that of a reptile, occupies about 70% of its body, and purple magic flows through the cracked skin.
Looking closely, the strange horns and sharp claws were also bizarre.
‘I’ve never seen a demon, but if there is, it must be something like that.’
Ackerman swallowed. The tremendous magic and stench paralyzed all five senses.
Judging by its size, that monster wasn’t Professor Deianne. Almost at the level of an orc.
Most of all, the human face that still remains tells us that the monster is not Deianne.
“That guy can’t be… … !”
“right. That’s the guy I missed in the forest at the Zoo and Botanical Gardens! Stop waking up, hoya!”
“Focus, it’s coming!”
What Ackerman and the others faced was Argon, not Deianne.
* * *
Poof!
Euron quickly dug into my side. The speed you would only see in class A cadets.
How did Euron improve his skills in 3 days… … long horns.
‘What did you eat!’
The fact that his stats increased so bizarrely in such a short period of time is proof that he took the medicine unconditionally.
Quaang!
Euron deflected his sword. I twisted my back to block the attack. The whole arm bone rang. His strength stat was much higher than mine, so it was not easy to hold on.
“Hehe. Let’s see how long you can last I’ll finish it quickly.”
Euron grunted.
A very confident attitude.
A little too much. No matter how easy I look, I’m so overconfident about my skills?
‘Are you sure you won’t get caught?’
During sparring, which is considered sacred by the combat world, it is against the rules to forcibly increase strength by taking medicine. You don’t know if you increase your strength with your own special skills or abilities.
Besides, raising the stats so quickly meant that the medicine was pretty strong… … .
‘If you get caught, you will be expelled unconditionally.’
What kind of guts do you think?
Bang bang!
Euron roars.
It’s overfaced from the start.
‘I’m assuming you’re planning to finish the game quickly and end it before side effects appear?’
speed battle. The tactic that came out of Euron’s brain was only a speed battle.
‘I want to win against me as much as I ignored it, but I’m not confident in my skills, so I’ll have to take medicine. It’s going to take even that, so do you want to finish it quickly?’
to die
Whoops, bang!
As if he had read my thoughts, Euron’s sword attack became more intense. Now I feel like I’ll break my arm bone if I just take it out. The guy was also desperate.
–!
“I go back, this baby, this baby!”
This time, Euron’s sword cuts horizontally!
‘This is dangerous!’
It’s too fast to dodge, and you might break a bone if you catch it. His forearm muscles are absolutely not at the level of Class B.
I was quick to judge.
‘I tried to save magic.’
Can not help it.
Power: [26/26]
Power: [21/26]
‘Only as much as is really necessary… … !’
Dexterity and stamina can be overcome with my swordsmanship. The conclusion is that if you catch up with the physical destructive power slightly, you will win.
Consumes 5 mana.
A shadow wrapped around the body.

Koo, Kung!
My heart was beating wildly, and strength welled up like a lie.
“Haaa!”
My sword drew a large semicircle and returned his blow.
–!
The air burst. Euron and I were both thrown backwards by the momentary wave.
My head is dizzy. Still, I caught my spirit and focused on Euron.
‘It has to be done quickly… … !’
But it wasn’t as easy as I thought.
Even though that guy is a piece of trash, the ‘wind wave swordsmanship’ itself, which comes from the Taylor Joy family, was quite tricky.
Being in the Warriors in the first place means that you are an elite in itself.
It’s not weak enough to be ignored. Besides, I took a strange drug and pumped up my physical abilities… … It is bound to be a more difficult opponent.
‘It must have been a boss fight.’
No, no.
For now, let’s just focus on that guy in front of us.
Damn, why do drugs make people tired.
‘Also… … Should I use Blackfire?’
If you use spruce, it is enough power to subdue.
However, no matter how much I think about it, I have to conserve my strength now. for the boss fight.
Besides, if you use Blackfire in front of this many people, you might get into trouble. In the eyes of the public, it will just look like an ominous, evil demonic power.
There is no need to scratch and make a boil for those who do not know the school rules.
‘Let’s compete purely with the sword.’
I made up my mind and got up again. The crowd held their breath.
I fixed my eyes on Euron.
However, a small change has occurred to him.
Blue veins sprouted from his forearms and neck. The guy gnashed his teeth and got up again. The way he grabbed his forearm seemed uncomfortable.
Euron’s pupils shake.
It seems that something is not working out.
“You bastard!”
Euron screams and runs.
Unlike before, his breathing collapsed, and his movements became dull.
‘Also… … !’
Name: Euron Taylor-Joy
Gender: male
Age: 20
Character: ???
specialty: ???
Stats: [Strength: 15] [Agility: 9] [Stamina: 11] [Luck: 2]
Power: [17/20]
Even checking the status window, the stats were off.
‘I’m sure he sucked on the cleverly combined stimpak.’
Green veins, stats that drop over time. These two are typical symptoms of guys who sucked steam packs.
A very brief moment, a drug that exudes power that transcends limits and finishes the opponent in a short time.
It is an extreme drug developed to win the war against monsters, but it is obviously illegal to bring it to sparring.
Perhaps Gilliart had already noticed, he was watching the duel with his eyebrows furrowed and his arms crossed. A look full of displeasure.
However, seeing that he did not stop immediately, it seemed that he had no intention of stopping this match until the end.
then-
widely!
Gap.
I dodged the slowed one’s sword by moving it to the side, then slashed the sword down from above my head.
“Ouch!”
My sword hit Euron’s left rib as it was. Judging by the sensation in his fingertips, it was clear that his ribs had come out.
“Ouch! haha.”
Euron’s breathing becomes more and more rough. The veins in his neck came up to his chin. Side effects will get worse.
‘Forward single sum.’
End with the next blow.
Whoa. I took a deep breath and placed the tip of my sword on Euron.
It’s a great concentration. There were no spectators in sight, and only me and Euron were visible in this space.
When I hold the sword, I feel that my concentration goes up dozens of times.
Euron runs. The posture was immediately destroyed. You can knock him down even if you just dodge and hit him.
But this is a rare ‘real world’ opportunity.
Without this opportunity, there are not many moments to accumulate experience points.
Do your best.
Just like Ponte, Euron seems sluggish. The talent of the sword gave me a great gift.
The wind dwells in Euron’s sword. The air was turbulent.
windbreaking. If he’s properly trained, he’s sure to be a threat-
—!
Euron Taylor-Joy, a drug addict, couldn’t have learned it properly!
I swung my sword as I had hit the wooden doll’s vitals hundreds and thousands of times.
The raging wind was scattered by my sword strike, and disappeared after sweeping my hair like a tailwind.
The feeling of bones and organs bursting in several places was transmitted to my hand.
Euron is full as it is! got down on his knees
“Quak!”
He vomited blood from his eyes, nose and mouth.
My hands and feet trembled. He looked almost faint.
With the side effects of the stimpack and the vital point, the blood had to flow backwards.
Besides, my sword had a bit of emotion on it.
Who has been arguing with since the beginning of the semester!
Wasn’t he the one who spread the rumor that I was following Cain around?
Be fortunate that only a few bones are broken.
And welcome to expulsion.
‘huh. It’s cheap even if you get hurt.’
It’s all cool inside.
“stop! stop!”
Gilliot interrupted hastily. He stopped the sparring and looked at Euron’s condition.
“Whoa. Also… … .”
The crowd was silent.
‘Blackfire’ defeated ‘Taylor Joy’, a famous knight family. This fact must have given them quite a shock.
Poof! I brushed off my sword.
I started to worry about Ackerman’s group again.
‘I have to go quickly.’
Gilliot, let me go quickly.
I deliberately went near Euron to tee off.
Fortunately, Euron’s life did not appear to be in danger.
“Aren? wait a moment.”
“Awesome… … Aree en… … !”
Gilliot raised a hand to stop me. Euron glared at me with reddened eyes. Blood bubbles burst from the mouth.
Seeing that it still makes noise, it seems to be worth living for.
bang!
“Heuk!”
Gilliot punched Euron. But what was that cannonball-like sound just now?
Euron lost consciousness with his white eyes intact.
“You son of a bitch! How dare an academy cadet suck pills? In the world of combat that I teach!”
Gilliot shouted at the fainting Euron. His face was red, and he seemed really angry.
“You risk my instructor position and you are expelled! You insulted me!”
His iron fists trembled. It seemed that he was barely suppressing his desire to kill Euron right away.
Gilliot saw me again only after Euron was completely gone.
“Um, Aren.”
“Instructor.”
I slightly bowed my head. To be honest, I was a little scared.
Soon after, Gilliot grabs my shoulder with a satisfied face. Akawan has changed 180 degrees and is kind. Apart from being mad at Euron, he seemed to see me very well.
“I am sorry. It didn’t stop right away.”
“Are you doing that on purpose?”
“okay. I wasn’t sure, and I wanted to see your skills.”
damn it, i can’t help it
‘I sucked on the steam pack, and if I beat him, of course my rating will improve.’
I had no choice.
Because I had to win first.
‘This is a bit unsettling.’
All you have to do is wait for the results… … .
Damn Yuron. I should have broken more bones.
“Good job. Aren. It’s your victory!”
“… … Yes.”
“You can go down. Go and rest.”
I put my hand on my chest, feeling a little embarrassed.
As soon as I left the arena, the crowd became noisy again. The uncomfortable atmosphere was relieved.
This is the current address of Blackfire.
no one cheers for me just a nasty guy It must have been embarrassing to even praise me.
Of course, none of that mattered to me.
He had neither the time nor the desire to feel the spotlight of a gladiator who had won the Colosseum.
‘Let’s hurry… … !’
Act 1 boss fight.
The only thing that matters to me is that.
I started running at full speed as soon as I passed through the dark passageways of the central gym.
