49 – #049 New Record
“… Uh?”
Thinking it would take about 30 minutes, Jin smoked a cigarette and dropped the cigarette in his mouth without realizing it when he saw John Doe and others who came out after about 5 minutes.
Having heard of John Doe’s power to some extent from Peter, the professor in charge, Jin expected that they would come out sooner than the other groups.
But this was too fast.
The size of the dungeon wasn’t that large, but it wasn’t a dungeon that could be conquered in just over five minutes with four newbies.
Jin, who hurriedly ran towards John’s group with doubts in his heart, soon found a student who was being supported by another member of the group while lying limp, as if he had passed out.
When Jin, who saw that scene, made a very reasonable judgment that he had to give up the test because of an injury, John Do returned the magic tool and said.
“We cleared the dungeon. There is one injured person, but he just passed out, so you don’t have to worry too much about it.”
“You attacked the ball?”
I immediately checked the magic tool that John Doe gave me, and there was a red mark proving the strategy along with the number 127.
127. The sum of all the monsters in the dungeon that the academy had researched in advance was exactly the same number.
Even though it’s a beginner’s dungeon, clearing the dungeon in 5 minutes is ridiculously surprising. Subdued all the monsters in the dungeon?
No matter how much I thought about it, something was strange. It was much more realistic that they had cheated or that the magic tool had caused an error.
Right before Jin, who made such a natural decision, said he would delay whether or not to pass the test, Jin remembered the advice Peter had given him before leaving.
‘Maybe something unbelievable will happen. But it’s definitely not a trick or a broken machine, so don’t take it seriously. And no matter what, you must never use discriminatory words like barbarians. If… If you use such words, the academy cannot guarantee Jin’s life.’
No matter what happens, it’s just an ordinary thing, so just ignore it.
Jin, who recalled those words and looked at John Doe once again, swallowed his breath when he saw the heavy forearm muscles that looked like he could easily twist an ogre’s neck.
I heard that there were many students who quarreled with him on the first day of the semester. Isn’t that crazy
No matter how much mana makes up for the difference between physical strength to some extent, the opponent also uses ki, so how could he ever think of taking on the challenge?
“Why is that? Any problem?”
“Oh, no… no. The test passed, so it’s good to go.”
As John Doe took a step forward, the frightened Jean immediately nodded to him.
Team 5, led by John Doe, had a record of 5 minutes and 42 seconds. The number of monsters subdued was 127.
It was a new record that no one had ever achieved in the history of the academy.
*****
The fact that John Doe cleared the dungeon in just 5 minutes quickly spread and reached the ears of all students, not just the first-class freshmen.
You could say it was such a fuss that it barely set a record, but even though it was a beginner’s dungeon, it was shocking to be able to clear the dungeon in 5 minutes.
The dungeon is wide and complex.
Of course, the level of dungeons for beginners was far less than other dungeons, but it was still wide enough to take 30 minutes just to go around once without monsters interfering.
It was not unreasonable that the story spread so quickly since he managed to get through such a dungeon in just 5 minutes while defeating all the monsters.
“No, does this make sense?!”
It was the students who protested most ardently about John Doe’s dungeon raid.
The reason the students protested was not simply because of their inferiority complex, but it was because of a sense of crisis that if they continued like this, they would lose the first place in all exams to John Doe.
Everyone knew about John Doe’s skills, either by hearing or experiencing it, but it was ridiculous that he cleared the dungeon in 5 minutes.
Of course, they protested fiercely, but all of their opinions were ignored.
The students said that the lead teacher had been bribed or that the magic tools had been manipulated, but as a result of the investigation, all of them turned out to be groundless.
“f*ck….”
Among the students, the ones who rebelled most vehemently were classmates Louise and the recently humiliated Mileon.
Both of them were eager to crush him, at least s*xually, but they were defeated by such an overwhelming margin that they couldn’t help but feel resentful.
Meanwhile, the professors were all wrapping their heads in the face of problems that had already been predicted.
“What should I do now?”
If the problem was caused by someone doing something wrong, things would have been simpler.
If he punished the wrongdoer, the situation could have been resolved somehow. But this time no one was at fault.
It started with John Doe, but he didn’t use any tricks, and it wasn’t his fault that he got good results.
In fact, this unfunny uproar wouldn’t have happened had he been a noble or royalty, but as always, his status got in the way.
“Students’ backlash is a bit strong, but… I’ll say that Will you be like that all three years?”
When a professor who received a black dog’s skin from John Doe spoke cautiously, the old professor frowned and said.
“Since that student will be in first place all three years, he will be like that all three years. Look at that score? Honestly, among these people, is there anyone who can clear a dungeon in five minutes with four loads of luggage?!”
At that, Vivian and Marianne laughed and raised their hands, and the old professor cleared his throat and turned away.
“Anyway, we have to take some measures. I don’t know what they will do because of their inferiority complex if we continue like this!!”
I’m not going to commit a violent act of resigning as a group, but I don’t know what will happen behind the scenes.
Also, even if you don’t do such a thing and train yourself, those who get frustrated by reaching out to reach out of reach always tend to be negligent.
Moreover, since the opponents are Asians who are treated contemptuously in the kingdom, their humiliation will double.
“But what can I do? You can’t ask for a lower grade just because other students get frustrated, can’t you?”
“So it’s a problem!! What to do with this….”
While everyone was putting their heads together and thinking, Vivian, who had been quietly watching their conversation, spoke.
“Then why don’t we just exempt you from the test?”
“Hmm? Professor Vivian What do you mean….”
“It’s literally. If getting first place in the exam is the problem, then all future exams should be waived. Would he be satisfied if I gave him some privileges instead?”
For example, I mentioned things like a permit that allows you to freely enter all the dungeons in the academy, and things that allow you to participate in classes at any time you want.
Then, the professors opened their mouths in amazement at something that normal students would never have imagined.
“Ah, but isn’t that too much? Even if you say it’s a permit, doesn’t it mean that you come to the academy to freely participate in classes?”
“What’s so bad? So, to be honest, is there a single person here other than me or that shorty b*tch who can teach her something?”
“Ummm….”
I have nothing to say about that. Let alone what to teach him, what kind of teaching can he teach when he can’t even break the record he set?
“I’m not saying this because he’s my disciple. Unexpectedly, when he talks a little, he has a lot of common sense. Even if I gave you that privilege, you wouldn’t abuse it?”
From noble mtl dot com
“But if you give me that privilege and other students protest….”
“Ah different, uh different, that’s it, it’s up to the packaging. For example, the provision of a private room is so violent that it is said to be isolated.”
“Um… ….”
The professors, who finally got their bearings at Vivian’s words, started discussing what to do.
Either way, it was to John Doe’s advantage that he was spared the troublesome exam and had privileges that ordinary students do not get.
*****
“… Could you say that again?”
“How many times do you ask?”
“No, no matter how many times I hear it, I don’t understand….”
Exemption from the test is enough privilege, so why on earth are we giving privileges in addition to that?
In exchange for exemption from all exams, I received the right to use the professor’s cafeteria and all dungeon permits in the academy.
In addition, tax exemption for by-products obtained from dungeons is not only exempted, but even unauthorized absences up to three times a week are counted as attendance.
I don’t quite understand. Why the hell am I being treated like this just because I set a new record in the exam?
I heard a brief explanation of the reason for this, but I still couldn’t understand it.
“Why do you raise a student like a 5-year-old child?”
“That’s right. Kids need to grow up a bit stronger…. This is why nobles….”
Well, since it’s beneficial to me, I don’t have any intention of rejecting it, but a sigh leaked out of my head at the reality of the academy, where students complained that they were a little whiny.
“By the way, do you have some time now?”
When Vivian, who was sighing together, asked that question, I nodded and said,
“As always, no promises.”
“That’s great. That inspiration just came.”
“That inspiration?”
“My exclusive blacksmith. I got a call not long ago that it would be arriving soon. You should be here by now, so let’s go quickly.”
