Episode 59 Final exam.(1)

finally finished
The word “completed” might be a little awkward.
It would be fair to say that it is only now that we are able to use this technology properly.
Representative of Ryujin’s advanced skills, and optimized for breaking down the opponent’s defense.
shedding cherry blossoms.
The biggest advantage of this technology is that it is safe even if it is clogged.
It is very easy to link with other moves, so you can use it as a special move that you never know when it will appear.
Thanks to this, he showed good efficiency against Raven, who boasts agile movements.
As the opponent is a Raven, it will be difficult to gain an edge over him with this skill alone.
However, personal satisfaction is great.
It’s not perfect, and it’s a little sad that it was only available one day before the final exam, but it’s still usable.
… It is of course a secret to Aina that she has neglected to practice.
I feel like I’m going to scratch the rip off what I’ve done without even practicing until now.
No, Aina is also responsible for making me unable to concentrate in the first place, so isn’t it just my fault?

Park Seong-jin.
Even if it’s always clumsy and full of shortcomings, it’s just my lover’s name that’s lovely.
I can’t even understand myself like this.
How did you end up giving your heart to such a blind guy?
Sometimes I wonder if this heart is just a passing emotion.
It’s just a thought though.
Just by looking at his face, those thoughts disappear like snow.
There were quite a few days when I wore gloves because I hated these scars, which could never be called beautiful.
However, after wearing a ring like that, scars like that became better.
It’s been a long time since I took off my gloves, just because I like being able to let others know that I and his hands have the same thing.
But, why can’t you understand me like this?
I’ve thrown away all the face I’ve managed so far, and I’m giving you all of my sincere heart.
I’m not saying this in hopes of getting something from you.
Because you gave a lot that no one else gave you.
This ability, which I had never been able to handle until now, was now able to be used with just the thought of you.
With this alone, what I received from you is enough.
There’s only one thing I want from you.
accepting my heart.
I never knew that this could be so difficult.
I don’t even have to get anything from you, it’s something you just have to accept.
Oh, I think I know a little bit now.
The space in my heart that you occupy is so wide, but it’s because my space in your heart is so small.
then… Can you get rid of that woman who has even a little bit of your heart?
With this power you awakened.
I won’t make lame excuses like, ‘This was all for you too’.
It’s true that it came from my selfish heart.
I want to own you.
When I first became able to use this power properly, I swore I would use it only for you, but it would be foolish to break that promise so quickly.
But, can you forgive me just this one time?
I’ve yielded a lot to you so far.
I just want to give you more.
I hate to see others share what I gave.
I want to be the only one who has your love.
That’s all.

The day of the final exam was bright.
Unlike the midterm exam, which was conducted as an open tournament, the final exam, which evaluates individual task performance, is not very grand.
Just like the training we’ve been doing so far, it’s just going to be normal.
Personally, I think the final exam is much better than the midterm exam, but this is purely my opinion.
It’s different for each person how they take it.
The content of the exam itself may be more difficult than the midterm exam, but it is especially true that the rest of the exam has a much broader condition than the midterm exam.
If you are a person like me who feels a lot of pressure from external factors, the midterm exam will be more difficult, and if you are not sensitive to such external pressure, the final exam will be more difficult.
“Did everyone prepare well for the final exam?”
“yes.”
“no.”
“It’s just that.”
The reaction is different.
The most surprising thing was that Beatrix confidently answered yes.
No matter how you look at it, it seems like you answered it without much thought… .
I don’t know.
Will you be able to do it again?
“Yes, there are no failing points anyway, so I hope that everyone will take the final exam with a relaxed mind. Don’t ever do it lightly though. Then, go to the training room you were assigned to.”
“”yes.””
The training room I was assigned to is number 142.
It’s nice to have a training room not too far from the entrance to the training ground.
“Everyone, do well on the exam.”
“Oh, this hyung is going to have a drink with Jade after the exam.”
“You said you were going to vomit because of the hangover, are you drinking again?”
“When you get drunk, your hangover goes away.”
“You really are crazy.”
James and Jade are great guys too.
These are the guys who drink like that every day and never miss a lecture.
Should I be sincere or should I be insincere?
“Is Seongjin Park, who ranked first in the midterm exam, confident in the final exam?”
“Well, I think I might get a C.”
“Are you sure?”
“How are you confident that you will get a C?”
“You are a mouthful.”
At first, he tried to retort, but he quickly gave up.
Because he said he wasn’t confident about the midterm exam several times and got 1st place, so it was obvious that other people would hear it as a deception.
“Yeah, take a good look at the finals too.”
“I only think about vacation.”
“Do you have any special plans for vacation?”
“no? What plan do you need? Just not coming to the academy is enough. Anyway, good luck with your exam. I go.”
it’s vacation
I had no idea what to do either.
I’ll have to give it some thought.
“Good luck on the test! Sungjin-ah!”
“Beatrix, you too.”
“I will pass!”
Beatrix made the way by blowing turquoise vuvuzela over and over again.
That bastard vuvuzela still hasn’t given up.
I thought it would stop after a few days of blowing.
Even though I thought it would be boring now, Beatrix still had a happy expression on her face.
It’s really the same.
“Look at the end. If it were you, you would be fine.”
“Still, I thought you were going to take first place. The record is great, isn’t it?”
“Certainly, it doesn’t look like we will ever miss first place at the end of this season.”
“Okay. See you later. Aina.”
“Hurry up and leave. I will be waiting.”
are you waiting
How fast are you trying to finish?
It’s not that Aina’s confidence is incomprehensible.
Aina was the only one who had the record of killing Ravens not only in the S class, but also in the entire upper class, including the U class.
I don’t understand what you did to have such a rapid growth, though.
Did you do any doping?
While I was contemplating what caused Aina to grow rapidly, I had arrived at training room 142.
“Are you also from Park Seong-jin?”
“yes that’s right.”
“Identification is complete. As you may have already heard, in this test, even if you do badly, there will be no failing points, so please do your best.”
“yes.”
“Then, please take the exam.”
The door to the training room opens.
As if the setting had already been completed, Raven’s hologram was already standing on the other side of the training room.
[User recognized. You are synchronizing your thinking. please wait for a moment.]
[Synchronization of user, Park Seong-jin’s thinking has been completed.]
[Countdown, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0, the test has started.]
Another f*cking holographic city.
The figure of Raven, which had been seen before, is hidden between the buildings and is no longer visible.
All you can see is dense buildings and a large transport plane behind you.
Transport planes are, of course, there to carry citizens on board.
The goal of this final exam is to get citizens on this large transport plane and safely finish takeoff.
Fortunately, the location of Raven is quite far from here, and the location of the citizens who need to be rescued is usually close.
… Of course, if you are aiming for a high score, the story is a little different.
The two citizens are quite far from this transport.
Considering that the total number of citizens to be rescued is 20, you might be thinking, ‘There are only two people?’ will be.
18 to 20 A.
15 to 17 people B.
12 to 14 were C.
From 9 to 11 people D.
Six to eight people E.
1 to 5 are F, failing.
As such, even if those two are discarded cards, in order to receive an A, all but one must be saved.
It’s such a beggar condition.
Even B is not so accommodating.
Since this is a Hell difficulty test, it may be natural that there are no failings.
However, if you are willing to be satisfied with your grades at E, which is just above the failing point, there is a way to rescue only nearby citizens before Raven comes to this area and take off the transport plane immediately.
Even this is an impossible method for people with low mobility.
Of course, it’s a method I’d like to try, since I’m very mobile, but I don’t think so.
If that was the case, I wouldn’t have researched only how to deal with Ravens in the first place.
I’ll have to find Raven first.
After activating the second ability, it traverses the entire city.
You can read the signs of citizens here and there, but you can’t feel the sharp and angular movements characteristic of Raven.
Are you still far away?
I’m still not good enough to scan the entire city, so it’s definitely painful to have to move around and find Ravens.
It’s been about 5 minutes since I wandered through the whole city like that.
I managed to find Raven.
f*ck you.
You’ve already killed two people.
In this case, A has crossed the water.
Besides, this edition doesn’t bring much luck.
It would have been nice if Raven rushed to me like in training, but this time Raven doesn’t show any signs of approaching me.
It’s tiring to unravel the studio by focusing on spatial distortion.
Still, if you only use space distortion like before, it’s not at the level of being helpless.
Now that I have a rough idea of what the maximum range of space distortion is, it is because I have learned how to contain the attack at a distance that cannot be reached.
In fact, there is nothing to call it grandiose as a check.
There is no need to go up to Raven level, and even S class members rarely get hit by my bullets.
Still, it is enough to enhance the character of the other person.
Several thread bullets flew towards Raven.
None of the bullets hit, but it doesn’t stop firing.
We still have a long way to go before we can piss off that fake Raven.
… Despite my indiscriminate shooting, Raven slowly narrowed the distance without losing concentration.
Now, if Raven takes only two or three steps forward, I’m within range of his spatial distortion.
This is where the real battle begins.
Space Distortion is an instant-acting thought force, so it is impossible to see and avoid it.
So, it is necessary to continuously maintain the breathtaking distance that the spatial distortion touches.
I have to make the space distortion wasted by the guy who couldn’t overcome the frustration.
In that way, my breathtaking tightrope at the maximum crossroads of space distortion continued.
Sometimes, to catch him, he deliberately went in and out a few times within the range of space distortion, but he never tried to attack in haste.
That hologram theme sells really well.
I can’t.
I can’t stand this frustrating composition.
The only choice is to use the osprey drop, which is good for tricking the eye and good for access.
It is not that I have chosen this technology because I am confident.
Rather, it’s a skill I’m not very good at.
Still, I chose this technique because it’s very useful for blurring the opponent’s vision.
Originally, this technique was an anti-aircraft technique to knock out opponents who were rushing at me from behind, so it is quite different from the normal charge technique.
It’s just that it’s not rushing forward, but flying backwards.
Instead, if you use it with your back against the opponent, it becomes a skill that can be attached to the opponent.
It’s a very difficult technique to understand, but if you have to follow a similar movement, it’s a little bit like jumping backwards in a high jump.
Just this way.
feet fall off the ground
When I turn my head down, I see a space distorted by Raven’s spatial distortion.
It’s successful.
In terms of the game, though, only Phase 1 is over.
