105 – Friendly sparring (5)
The Korea Academy was in trouble.
The third student to participate is Jihyeji.
In addition to her passing out after hitting her head on the wall, her fourth student also got into trouble.
“When will it come out!”
Boom boom!
The academy assistant knocked hard on the bathroom door.
The man in the toilet stall was none other than Paeng Gu-moon, ranked 3rd.
“Oh please! Don’t rush it! “The more you do that, the less it comes out, right?”
Pang Gu-moon originally tried to hit his head on the wall and pass out, but Ji Ji-ji beat him up, so he had no choice but to escape to the bathroom. Because he couldn’t use the same trick.
The teaching assistant habitually checked the watch on his wrist and constantly brushed up on his pen.
“Ha. What are you doing before sparring!? Don’t you know that the sparring is being delayed right now because of one student at Paenggumun? You should also cause a reasonable amount of inconvenience! “If you don’t poop, just come out!”
“I can’t go out because I feel like I’m not going to come out! “If I force myself to hold back and spar and get bored in the middle, will you take responsibility for my life?”
“No, why am I responsible for that? “It’s Student Paeng Gu-moon’s fault for not being able to control his sphincter muscles!”
“So! “I’m telling you, I’m going to pack a little bit so I can control my sphincter better during sparring, right?”
“It’s already been thirty minutes since I said just a little bit!”
Pang Gu-moon did not give in despite his assistant’s urging.
Even if I was threatened rather than urged, I had absolutely no intention of leaving.
If I leave now, I will definitely have to go up to the sparring hall.
That was an extreme specification.
In preparation for a situation where a teaching assistant breaks through the door, Paenggumun even installed a strong barrier on the wall and door of the toilet compartment.
‘f*ck. ‘If I’m going to fight Lee Hyun-seong, I’d rather go into the special dungeon wearing only my underwear.’
Lee Hyeonseong’s summoned beast naturally appeared in Paenggumun’s mind.
Two 5-star monsters.
Hydra and zombie dragon.
A humanoid monster estimated to be of the highest 4-star level.
In addition, all the monsters that were treated as minors seemed to be at least 3 stars, so I had no choice but to lose my fighting spirit.
In the end, the instructor ran out of patience and tried to break down the door, but it was not enough to break through the barrier of the legendary barrier master, Paenggumun.
Anyway, Paeng Gu-moon was unable to attend the sparring match with the excuse of pooping in the bathroom.
***
Professor Choo Min-guk, in charge of first-year students, looked around the students.
The purpose was to select students who would serve as substitutes due to the absence of Ji Hye-ji and Paeng Gu-moon.
“······Is there anyone?”
Even though Professor Choo Min-guk asked the question three times, the first-year students tried to avoid eye contact and looked the other way.
When no student volunteered to participate, Professor Choo Min-guk began singling out students one by one.
“Student Ryu Si-won? “Why not set an example for her by being ranked #7?”
“Ah… “Actually, I’m not feeling well today.”
“I’m sure I saw you running around earlier… “Ugh, that’s it.”
Ryu Si-won, ranked 7th, made the excuse that he was not feeling well.
“Then, the student ranked 8th, Myeong-Cheol Koo…”
“Ugh! “I’m hungry because of the 200-day-old yogurt I ate for breakfast!”
Myeong-cheol Gu, ranked 8th, suddenly sat down on the floor and grabbed his stomach.
“Student Yu Nara ranked 9th…”
“Because today is that day. Sorry.”
“Student Seungmi Joo ranked 10th…”
“I think it will be difficult because I am careful not to hit men.”
All students expressed their intention to not participate, making various excuses.
“Haa…”
Professor Choo Min-guk let out a deep sigh.
He can’t forcefully kick out a student he doesn’t like.
He had no choice but to turn his head towards the second and third year students.
But the older students were no different from the first graders.
It was a natural reaction.
Who would want to go to sparring after seeing Lee Hyeon-seong’s summoned beasts currently encamped in sparring? It was safe to say that it was no longer a sparring ground, but the deepest part of a special dungeon.
In the end, after a meeting, the academy professors and instructors bowed to the Hero Academy and asked for their understanding. This was because instead of five-on-five sparring, it had to be changed to three-on-three sparring.
***
‘Tsk. ‘You cowards.’
Namgoong-cheol, who was entering the sparring hall, felt sorry for the academy students. Anyway, there is an artifact installed in the sparring hall that prevents instant death. I couldn’t understand why they were so scared when they had no chance of dying.
‘······Don’t you know that being scared and not participating in the sparring will damage your reputation more than being brutally defeated? Jerk the.’
Namgung-cheol’s thoughts were not wrong.
She was scared and stayed back.
She would be well-received for courageously entering the sparring match.
Even if she does nothing and is defeated.
‘Well, I have no intention of losing.’
Unlike other academy students, Namgoongcheol was confident. He is confident that he will not be pushed by Lee Hyun-seong.
It was not unfounded confidence.
Currently, Namgungcheol can summon a whopping twenty-five spirits.
There are six mid-level spirits and four are high-level spirits.
Because she was able to summon two ‘Great Spirits’, the highest level spirits.
Namgoong-cheol only has to play one more ranking match.
She assured that now she will be able to beat Kim Soo-han and take first place. Her confidence was sky-high.
‘Still, it would have been dangerous if I had faced Lee Hyun-seong from the beginning. I never would have thought that such power was hidden. But by now, you’re running low on mana, so it’s probably hard to maintain summons. ‘I can win.’
Namgoong-cheol, with a wry smile, proudly stood on the sparring grounds. And she lifted her head toward the audience. She was heading in the direction of the guild members of the guild she belonged to, ‘Aura’.
“Cheol, fighting!”
“Cheer up!!!”
Shin Ji-ah and Shin Ji-yu are cheering.
Namgung-cheol responded to them by raising his hand as if to show her appreciation. At the same time, she looked at Lee Hyun-seong’s reaction out of the corner of her eye.
‘······Baby. ‘To pretend like nothing happened.’
They and Lee Hyun-seong are former lovers.
And Lee Hyun-seong was dumped by the girls and abandoned from the guild due to lack of progress, and he clung to them miserably, unable to forget them.
After that, the reason why I grew up trying so hard until now was to struggle to return to them…
‘But what? ‘Did you lose the women to me before you could get them back?’
Of course, it was all made up, except for the fact that she was abandoned by the guild.
The full story of their relationship was like this.
Shin Jia wanted to rebuild the guild.
To do so, the first thing to do was to build her awareness.
The easiest and fastest way is to recruit students who are at the top of the academy rankings.
While she was wondering if there was any way, she gathered information that Namgoong-cheol, who knew Shinji, was feeling jealous of Lee Hyeon-seong. And she cleverly tricked him into recruiting him to her guild.
Of course, if Lee Hyun-seong denies it, it will be a lie…
She asked Lee Hyun-seong if she could go along with the lie even out of consideration for their old relationship, and with the complacent thought that she would somehow be able to continue deceiving Nam Gung-cheol, she committed the act and saw it.
So they tried to approach Lee Hyun-seong, but she was still unable to ask for a favor because the people around her were too much in the way.
Namgoong-cheol is unaware of that fact.
She believed what they said.
‘There is nothing more damaging to a woman’s spirit than losing her. ‘The mental shake-up operation just before the sparring was a success.’
Fatigue accumulated due to previous sparring.
Mental damage due to the shock of losing a lover.
After summoning several high-ranking summons for a long time, my mana must have been slowly depleted.
This was Lee Hyun-seong’s condition as analyzed by Namgung-cheol.
‘I’ll push you from the beginning and finish quickly.’
Namgung-cheol, who assured her victory, summoned all her spirits at once.
***
Yongyong, who was glaring at Namgungcheol, asked me a question.
─Master.
“Huh?”
─That sodomy bastard, why do you keep giving us a bad look?
“I don’t know.”
Actually, this was a question I had been wondering before.
What kind of delusion are you having? Why are you grinning and looking at me so sinisterly?
‘It’s already the last sparring. ‘I didn’t know you’d be so scared that you’d give up on competing.’
She was starting to get bored.
One-sided sparring is not fun.
It would be better to just finish it quickly and go back.
Without further ado, I was about to use Yongyong and Yongsik’s final skills to sweep away all of her spirits.
─Master!
The iron rice bowl flew in with ice wings sprouting from its back and urgently called to me.
“···Bobbasket. “Have you returned Yura’s ice spirit yet?”
─This is a long-term rental. Anyway, I am here to ask you to be careful as you must not kill the spirits.
“Huh? Oh right. “I said it can only be absorbed if the form is intact.”
─Yes. I will eat everything you can, so please wait patiently.
After saying that, Bobtong immediately descended to where the spirits of Namgungcheol were.
─I will follow you and help you! That dark blue lid is crazy about your spirit, I need to say this line! Hi-Hi!
Kebi, who was rolling around on Yongyong’s back and eating ice cream, also followed the iron rice bowl.
The only people left on Yongyong were me and Pingping.
─Demon God. What can I do?
“Pingping, all you have to do is absorb all of Namgoongcheol’s jealousy at the end.”
─You mean the jealousy of that indigo haired man?
“Yes. Once the jealousy goes away, it won’t bother you later. Oh, as a bonus, let’s use the language.”
─Whatever you said. Can I just take off all my clothes and make Zero Two dance?
“That’s good, but… “I just want to see it as a small matter of speaking out about the atrocities I have committed so far.”
─As expected, the Demon God is generous.
While chatting with Pingping, I glanced down and saw that the situation was already coming to an end. Not even a minute has passed. From what I heard, no matter how great the spirit was, it seemed like it couldn’t resist the ancient spirit stone.
“f*ck you! What is this?! “Don’t absorb my spirit!!!”
─Shut up. This is good nutrition.
─Your spirit is amazing!
When Namgung-cheol, who appeared confident, began to steal her spirits, she was chasing and begging for her iron breadbasket with a screaming voice.
