Academy Munchkin Grew Up To Become a Genius - Chapter 96



Episode 96 Battle for Kang Seo-Jun (1)

Today’s academy schedule was almost no different from yesterday.

Self-study in the classroom in the morning.

After lunch.

Self-training at the gym in the afternoon.

‘The number of teaching assistants has decreased significantly compared to yesterday.’

The difference is that the number of assistants supervising self-training has decreased significantly.

‘It must be because of the Kenji Kuyamoto incident.’

Academy officials probably had to deal with twice as much work as of today because of Kang Seo-jun’s atrocities.

While the Park Shin-hoo kidnapping case had not yet been properly resolved, an incident occurred in which a foreign cadet who was scheduled to transfer to another school was attacked by an unidentified assailant and seriously injured.

‘Still, surprisingly, it looks like there won’t be any more school closures.’

Since two large-scale unfortunate incidents occurred in succession in two weeks, it was thought that the academy might be closed indefinitely until its security and defense were completely inspected.

‘Should I say I’m lucky…’

If the identity and purpose of the culprit had not been identified, the school would certainly have been closed.

From what I heard from Kim Joo-hee during the morning ordinance, the culprit of the incident was identified as the ‘Red Cross Society’ and the purpose of the crime was identified as ‘elimination of pleading individuals.

‘It may not be certain yet, but it seems like the Academy is trying to keep a focus on promising players and monitor the situation further.’

Perhaps that’s why active hunters dispatched from the Taesan Group, Sungjin Group, and the Association were in the gym, wearing security uniforms, taking the vacant positions of the trainers.

It seemed like the security was especially tight because the prospects of the Korea Hunter Academy were concentrated in Class A.

‘Juhee says she’s worried about me a lot too.’

From noble mtl dot come

After the assembly was over, Kim Joo-hee called Kang Seo-jun aside and specifically told him, ‘You must be especially careful as you are also a promising star of the Academy.’

‘If you knew that I was the one behind all the incidents, you would faint.’

Of course, both incidents were caused by Kang Seo-jun, and in fact, the Red Cross Society was just making a fuss, so Kang Seo-jun had nothing to be careful about.

‘I think it wouldn’t have been so bad if schools had been closed.’

In that case, I could just farm dungeons with Serin and Eunha.

‘Well, if 50 Luck created this situation, it means that this is the best course of action.’

In that case, just find out what you can do now and do it.

-Whoop!

“Wow, wow!”

He was lost in his thoughts for a moment and almost got hit in the ear by Jin Serin’s kick.

“Kang! Seo! Jun! Don’t just look at me, do it right! I’m doing this seriously!”

“…I’m not looking at you.”

“Puh. Don’t be funny!”

Sparring with Jin Serin.

Se-rin seemed to think she was joking, but Kang Seo-jun was really fighting her with all she might.

‘If it weren’t for the Eye of Providence, it would have retired a long time ago.’

-Whoop! Huh! Whoo!

“Really! Just dodge! Counterattack! Please!”

“…I can’t see any gaps.”

“Puhuhuhuh. Don’t be funny!”

Jin Se-rin started smiling a lot after Kang Seo-jun became handsome.

‘No, but really…’

-Boo! Huh! Whirling!

‘And! It was really dangerous!’

All Kang Seo-jun, who was inferior to Jin Se-rin in terms of pure specifications and characteristic correction, could do was to read Jin Se-rin’s attack path with the Eye of Providence and avoid it.

-Boo! Whirling! Paang!

“Huh! Huh! Hah!”

After the acrobatic level evasion circus time, there is a break of about 20 minutes.

“Whew…”

While Jin Se-rin went to the bathroom for a moment, Kang Seo-jun also took a moment to catch his breath.

-Suddenly! Jump up!

Seojun Kang thought as he took a refreshing sip of his sports drink.

‘I guess I’ll have to learn combat skills little by little.’

I felt it keenly while sparring with Jin Se-rin.

[B] Level enemies don’t have any special abilities, and most of their combat skills are at a poor level, so you can somehow defeat them just by pushing your hardware physically.

If you add corrections like Jin Se-rin and actually reach [A] Level level, it will be very difficult to deal with you without combat skills from here on.

‘Until now, I only focused on increasing hardware, believing that I had time to counterattack, but now I may encounter enemies that use [Legendary] Level or higher skills. I think it would be difficult to survive without software.’

The time when you could only push physically is over.

‘Now that we have some hardware, it’s time to get the software. Whether it’s swordsmanship, magic, fighting skills, summoning skills, other weapon skills, mecha control skills, nymph voodoo skills, whatever it is, I need to learn it first.’

Now it was time to develop a ‘technology’ that would allow Kang Seo-jun’s ‘physics’ to be utilized to the extreme.

‘Where should I start?’

There were truly endless ways to acquire combat skills.

‘You can learn by copying an opponent’s skills with the Eye of Providence, purchase martial arts with the Dimensional Shop, farm hidden pieces in dungeons, and obtain special skills from the secret library of powerful forces such as the Kuyamoto clan. It could be stolen.’

Therefore, it was necessary to think carefully about choosing the best option.

‘Let’s decide by elimination method. First…’

First of all, the dungeon is eliminated. It would take at least three days to conquer a proper dungeon, but I don’t have time to go there because of the academy.

Opening the secret archives of powerful powers was also eliminated. If successful, the return is certain, but the probability of failure is too high with the current specifications.

‘If I get caught… At least one of the limbs might get cut off.’

Now that I have finally gone from being disabled to a normal body, it would be very heartbreaking to immediately become disabled again.

‘What. Physical defects can be corrected with implants sold in the “Galactic Emperor’s Life Support System” Or the “Dimensional Shop,” But… After all, it is also dimensional currency. If possible, it is best not to create the possibility of unnecessary waste.’

So now there are two options left.

Copying someone else’s technology with the “Eye of Providence” Or purchasing a good technology with the “Dimension Shop.”

‘Hmm…’

The decision wasn’t as easy as I thought, but it came to a conclusion soon.

‘Copying the technology with 《Eye of Providence》 was also eliminated. There is no technology around right now that can be copied.’

Of course, it wasn’t that there weren’t ‘people with technology’ around Seojun Kang.

Jin Se-rin was learning 《Seongjin Spear》 and 《Seongjin Fighting》, which were created by combining various fighting techniques from around the world,

Park Shin-hye is also learning 《Taesan Sword Method》 and 《Taesan Boxing》, which were created based on the level that Park Tae-ho farmed from the tower.

‘But all of them are of lower grade than [Rare]…’

Of course, whether it was 《Seongjin Spear》 or 《Taesan Sword Technique》, if you polished it to the extreme, you could grow it to [Legendary] Level.

‘But that also takes a lot of time and effort. If that’s the case, it’s better to start from the beginning…’

If you’re going to spend the same amount of time and effort anyway, wouldn’t it be better to get [Epic] Level skills from the beginning and raise them to [Mythic] Level?

‘The problem is dimensional currency…’

I had recently spent a huge amount of dimensional currency while purchasing the “Galactic Empire Emperor’s Life Support System,” And since I had been concentrating on training recently and not farming, my dimensional currency was only enough for living expenses.

‘What. If you don’t have it, you have to earn it.’

Of course, as always, Kang Seo-jun had a way.

‘I need to rob Omen’s secret warehouse again.’

A while ago, I robbed a secret warehouse in a cathedral and earned a huge amount of dimensional currency.

There were still 5 more secret warehouses left in Omen.

‘One of them shouldn’t be in the headquarters of the Red Cross, and the other four are in places that are easily accessible.’

Since the Red Cross is a group of demons centered on Korea, most of Omen’s secret warehouses were located in Korea.

‘One in Jeju Island, one in Gangwon-do, one in Ulleungdo, one in Russia, and one in Geumgangsan Mountain in North Korea…’

All places could be reached in one day by going to the portal customs office and the ‘dimensional store table teleport scroll’.

‘The most formidable one among them…’

Ulleungdo is probably the closest to Stella Port.

‘It is the smallest of Omen’s secret warehouses, so the money earned will be less than at the cathedral, but you can still earn enough to buy [Epic] Level combat skills.’

It would be nice to be able to buy [Legendary] Level martial arts, but even if you have dimensional currency, you can’t buy it because the stat requirements are not yet sufficient.

‘Whether it’s equipment, magic, or martial arts, if you want to handle the [Legendary] Level, you need to have at least an all-stat rating of 30.’

◆Ability level

[Strength: 19], [Dexterity: 19]

[Durability: 18], [Anti-demon: 18]

[Stamina: 20], [Magic Power: 20]

[Sense: 18], [Intelligence: 18]

[Will: 33], [Luck: 50]

It is premature to use [Legendary] Level skills as the current status has not yet reached ’20’ in all stats.

‘What… If you acquire [Epic] Level combat skills, train hard as usual, buy and drink elixirs diligently, and raid the rest of Omen’s secret storage, you will soon reach ’30’ in all stats.’

I made a rough plan, so I thought this would be enough for now.

‘I need to finish preparing to train again before Serin comes.’

It was a time when Kang Seo-jun was walking to the recycling bag to throw away an empty beverage can.

“Hey.”

“?”

Suddenly, I heard a sound from under her chin and looked down to see Park Shin-hye looking up.

“I told you to contact me yesterday, but why didn’t you? Why are you neglecting me?”

Park Shin-hye asked with an expression full of irritation and dissatisfaction.

What else is he dissatisfied with…

“They said they would help with training!!”

“… ? Ah. That’s right.”

I was supposed to watch training yesterday.

In order to acquire the trait 《Taesan’s Successor》, I had to manage it as well.

I should have raised him first before his stats went up any further, but I forgot because I was thinking about combat skills and farming.

Kang Seo-jun answered differently.

“I forgot.”

“Stay, what, what!?”

Park Shin-hye crossed her arms and raised her eyebrows as if she was very dissatisfied with Kang Seo-jun’s attitude.

“You said it and you already forgot it? Do you have youthful dementia? Anyway, if you said it once, you take responsibility…”

“Ah. It’s noisy.”

“… Ugh!”

This guy is trying to abuse power.

“I was trying to do you a favor, but you know it’s a right, right?”

“Oh, no! You said you would do it first… !”

At the time when Park Shin-hye was about to argue with Kang Seo-joon.

“Huh? What is it? Park Shin… Huh?”

Jin Se-rin, who came back from the bathroom, saw the two fighting and tilted her head.

“What is it? Do something for me? Seojun? Do something for me?”

It seemed like he heard the conversation.

“Ai…”

Park Shin-hye glanced at Jin Se-rin and waved her hand as if she was annoyed.

“Don’t intervene and get out. I have nothing to do with you. I’m right now…”

“… What?”

For a moment, Jin Se-rin’s expression freezes like frost.

“Ah.”

Kang Seo-jun sensed that war had begun.

“No. Is this crazy? What are you saying while talking to someone else’s boyfriend?”

“What… ? Boyfriend? Hey, Kang Seo-jun. Are you dating Jin Se-rin? Huh?”

“… What a piece of shit.”

Why did this suddenly happen?

Was this what was going to happen?

“Hey! Park Shin! Say it again. “What did you just say?”

“Ah. Get out of here!! “I have no business with you!!!”

“What a crazy b*tch!?”

In the end, Jin Se-rin raises her hand.

“Whoa, whoa!”

Under… How do you mediate this?

It was at that time that Kang Seo-jun was urgently trying to stop Jin Se-rin.

“Seo, Seojun!”

A third voice suddenly intervened.

When I looked there, Lim Chae-won was standing there.

“Now, can you give me a moment? Come on, come on, just a moment is enough?”

“Ah! Really!! Lim Chae-won! What are you doing again? I said I came first!! Hey Kang Seo-jun! He said he’d help me train!!”

“No!!! Hey!! Park Shin! What are you?! What are you!!! What are you? Don’t tell me to get the hell away!?!?”

“Ah…”

Driving me crazy. Should I just run away?

Suddenly, the nightmare of the face genius episode with an appearance score of 1700 came back to mind.
