Chapter 1402 – 1402. Savior of the Academy
“… Sung Eugene is strong.”
“I know. Because he is my son.”
Sung Ha-ri continued.
“And there are many people who are stronger than Eugene.”
Sung Ha-ri’s expression was serious. He seemed to have no intention of stepping down.
However, it makes no sense for Seong Ha-ri to participate in the academy Korea-Japan exchange match. In Japan, the media will be excited from the moment Seong Ha-ri enters the country. It was obvious what kind of article he would write. We will raise Japan up while putting down Sung Ha-ri.
Of course, what Kang Ji-young was concerned about was not Japan’s reaction, but Seong Ha-ri, who would be excited by Japan’s behavior. Seongha, who often gets into trouble, was anxious.
“Dean Kang Ji-young.”
Choi Jeong-hwa, who was still, opened his mouth. She was wearing a blue velvet dress and arrogantly crossing her legs, she was not at all frightened even in front of Kang Ji-young.
“We have already decided to go to Japan. If the dean refuses, I will personally go to Japan. There are many ways to go to Japan.”
“I would have said. The government and the Hero Association won’t allow it.”
“Do you think he would care about that?”
Choi Jeong-hwa pointed at Seong Ha-ri with her chin.
“…….”
Kang Ji-young couldn’t refute. If she was Seong Ha-ri, she was the woman who was. She rolled her head. If we refuse Seong Ha-ri and Choi Jeong-hwa’s proposal and leave… They will follow you to the Japanese academy at their own expense. I’m almost 100% sure.
‘I’d rather….’
It seems that it would be better for her to spend it with the students participating in the exchange exhibition.
“… I get it. Your proposal is positively reviewed. However, as much as I backed off, you will have to listen to me to some extent.”
Seongha-ri’s atmosphere was more relaxed than before.
“If it’s not too much of a request, I’ll do it.”
“For now….”
Kwaaang!
The interior of the dean’s office flashed with thunder. Their gaze turns toward the window. This is where the stadium is. Opened during special events, it is now used by first-year students to take practical exams.
Aaaaagh!
Lightning struck again.
Kang Ji-young watched her lightning strike from the sky, then turned her attention to Seong Ha-ri.
“… Why are you looking at me I didn’t do anything.”
“I know you didn’t. Instead, the guy you were involved with would have done it. And I’m not really to blame.”
“Is this Eugene? Didn’t the wizard drop her thunderbolt?”
“There is no magician in the first year who can drop that level of lightning.”
“Our Eugene is amazing.”
Seongha-ri laughed. She said that the slightest compliment from her son made her feel better. She knows herself too weak for her son, but… She couldn’t help it. Just hearing her son’s praise causes her spine reflex to raise the corners of her mouth.
Bang bang bang bang!
Lightning strikes in succession.
Shining outside the window
Kang Ji-young asked Seong Ha-ri with her eyes narrowed.
“There are degrees out of the standard…. How did you educate your son? As an educator, I really want to know.”
“Education… ? Okay, I think it’s normal… Eugene is stronger than I thought. Has she grown up… ?”
Seongha-ri tilted her head as if she really didn’t know.
•••
Bang bang bang bang!
Ma Jin-bae, struck by lightning in succession, collapses forward.
It happened 10 seconds after the start of the 1v1 sparring. At first, I thought it would be over in one stroke… Being as strong as a body, he easily withstood the thunderbolt. The second thunderbolt also survived, so it struck seven times in a row.
“Stop!”
The supervisor intervened. He gestured quickly to the waiting staff. They took the fainting Ma Jin-bae to the medical room. Even if you faint, you won’t be injured. Because there is an aurora simulator installed in this arena.
“Sung Yujin. Go back to the waiting room.”
“Yes.”
My next game is in an hour. I went back to the waiting room and watched the next match through the monitor installed.
Sieun Lee VS Seona Bae
Bassena is a magician belonging to Class 4 of Year 1. Her main magic is fire-type, and her entrance ranking is 54th.
Bassena was smiling confidently against Lee Si-eun. She must have researched Lee Si-eun beforehand. She is generally considered to be inferior to wizards for her energy control ability, so she must be confident of victory in her heart.
‘If it’s an ordinary person with energy control ability.’
The supervisor blew the whistle. It was the whistle announcing the start of the sparring.
Bassena moved in a straight line. First of all, cast magic while widening the distance. After casting, attack immediately without hesitation. It’s not about standing still after an attack. She then casts the next spell.
Lee Si-eun gestured toward the flying fireball. The direction of the fireball is reversed and it flies to Bathena. Bassena, taken aback, was unable to respond quickly. She said that she was stuck. She was hit by a fireball she flew, and then Lee Si-eun’s electric shock pierced her.
The battle ended so simply that it was trivial.
‘It was great that Bae Sena was careless. Well, even if she hadn’t been caught off guard, she would have won Lee Si-eun.’
The sorceress Bathena cannot beat Lee Si-eun. If she was an experienced mage, she wouldn’t know.
‘Looking at this, Lee Si-eun doesn’t have to worry.’
•••
My next opponent was Cheonwoo Kim.
I looked around. The stadium was full of freshmen. Everyone was watching this match. A match between 2nd and 5th place in the admissions ranking. It was a big match that is not easily seen.
Kim Chun-wu held his greatsword in both hands and aimed it at me.
“I know I can’t beat you. I’ll do my best though I will do my best in this fight. So do your best too.”
“So what?”
Beep beep!
A whistle sounded.
I aimed the RPG-7 Cheonwoo Kim in my hand and pulled the trigger. The rocket fires and flies towards Kim Cheon-wu. Kim Cheon-woo put his greatsword aside and charged.
Aaaaang!
An explosion occurred. Coming out through the explosion smoke, Kim Cheon-woo brandishes a greatsword at me. The greatsword imbued with sword spirit swells and cuts through the air. Gaps caused by large movements. I dug into that gap.
[Uses a moment. Stacks Remaining: 6]
‘The faster I finish the sparring, the more I stand out and my score goes up.’
So I didn’t intend to take it too long. The spear in his hand extended in a straight line toward Kim Cheon-wu’s stomach. Then, suddenly, Kim Chun-woo’s body rotates. Rotation was too fast. If I stay like this, I will be cut with a great sword. I quickly fell back.
‘It didn’t turn around all of a sudden. Be prepared for me to come inside… He rotated his body from the beginning.’
Clicked his tongue Kim Cheon-woo has prepared preparations for the ‘instant moment’.
‘You know I use chal-na often. Well, not surprising. I used it often while practicing for a moment.’
It’s hard to dodge the moment at close range. If there is a difference in skill, it is even more impossible. However, if you know that you will use the moment and prepare for it, the story will change. Kim Cheon-woo’s instant response was very good. Deserves praise
‘But what about the second and third?’
[Uses a moment. Stacks Remaining: 5]
It narrows the gap again in an instant. In the slowing world, Kim Chun-wu’s eyes shook. It reacted in an instant. His greatsword swayed slightly and headed towards me.
[Uses a moment. Stacks Remaining: 4]
I dodged the greatsword by a single margin and thrust the spear into Kim Chun-wu’s neck. Kim Cheon-woo staggered in shock and fell to the floor.
“… You don’t even give me time to do my best.”
“So you can’t surrender?”
“It’s the other way around. I lost I’ll admit that I won’t be able to defeat you easily as I am now. But next time it will be different.”
Kim Chun-Woo’s eyes are burning brightly. To be honest, it really bothered me. When a male offspring gets entangled, he gets annoyed. If Kim Chun-woo had no value as a weapon for the great devil, he would have trampled on it thoroughly.
“… Work hard.”
•••
The third and final opponent was Hana Ryu, who ranked first in the admissions ranking.
It was expected, so it wasn’t surprising.
‘Since Kim Cheon-woo, who was in second place, was beaten easily, of course, Ryu Ha-na, who was in first place, should come out.’
Ryu Hana took her fighting stance with her sword in both hands even before her sparring began. That meant she would give her all to this battle from the start.
‘I don’t do things that break through in an instant.’
Just like Cheonwoo Kim, Hana Ryu must have prepared for her moment. She had no reason to let her opponent move the way she wanted.
The tense air in the arena became the wind and flowed. Hana Ryu’s light purple hair flutters, and dust rises from the dirt floor of her arena.
“Pick up her knife. I know your real weapon is a knife, not a rocket launcher or spear.”
“Well. Do you think you’ll win even if you don’t lift a sword?”
“You…. Those words will make you regret it.”
Beep beep!
A whistle sounded. Hana Ryu and I acted opposite to each other. I ran back, and Ryuhana did not move from her place.
‘As expected, he was preparing for the moment.’
Hana Ryu panicked and she belatedly followed me.
As I ran away, I threw a javelin at Ryuhana.
Caang!
Hana Ryu frowned at her even as she slashed her spear with her twin swords. Her legs falter. The brain energy contained in her spear flowed through her body.
‘Her brain machine must have surprised her muscles.’
She gritted her teeth and followed closely behind me.
As I ran away, I continued to throw the javelin. Hana Ryu dodged to her side without cutting her spear.
‘He’s quick to judge.’
It was enough to throw 2 or 3 spears in a row so that they could not avoid them.
Ryu Hana’s movements slowed down as she was hit by her cerebral qi. And all the spears in my hand disappeared.
“Pull out your sword.”
Ryuhana said.
“You can win even if you don’t lift a sword.”
“… You will pay the price for ignoring me.”
“I’m not ignoring you, you’re ignoring me.”
Right!
Snapped her fingers A flash of lightning flashes for an instant, then disappears. Immediately after, the javelins scattered all over the arena were lifted by magnetic force and flew at Ryuhana all at once.
“What?!”
Hana Ryu is embarrassed and she dances. Dodge or knock out the windows that fly dangerously.
I kept snapping her fingers as if I was laying her beat on her as she danced.
Right! Crackle! Crackle!
Lightning flashes with a sound, and the 12 spears move as if they are alive and attack Ryuhana.
‘This is how it works.’
She was surprised even by herself. Because I used to have a pretty hard time dealing with her magnetism.
‘A lot of mana? Or simply because I grew up?’
Judging that she couldn’t continue like this, Hana Ryu gave up her defense and charged towards me.
“You are the subject of power! If only you knocked me down… !”
“Do you think you can knock me down quickly with your slow legs? Absolutely not.”
Fuck!
Five spears flew and hit Ryuhana on the back.
That was it.
Ryu Hana couldn’t overcome her shock and fell.
The supervisor, who judged that it was a match, intervened.
Falling to her floor, Hana Ryu bit her lip and looked up at me.
“I can’t live like this… Nonsense… !”
“Keuk. Try harder next time.”
