Became the Academy’s Munchkin Power Priest - Became the Academy’s Munchkin Power Priest chapter 48

48 – Beast

“Morath, this is a letter from Deian.”

Moras’ eyes narrowed. It was two months after Deian left for the academy.

Moras asked Deian not to contact him unless it was urgent. Deian was a smart guy. It was a letter sent by such a guy at the risk of risk.

“Let’s see.”

The content of the letter was concise.

“A warrior….”

The content is that the hero and the demon hunter are attached to the academy.

Moras knew about the demon hunter’s presence at the academy months ago, but he couldn’t figure out the whereabouts of the hero.

Only the news that he was withdrawn from the front and that the party was temporarily disbanded. However, the fact that the party was temporarily disbanded did not mean that the hero disappeared, so the most important thing was to find out the hero’s whereabouts.

Deian found out the hero’s whereabouts. All the obnoxious ones were off the battlefield.

Deian’s correspondence was concise but clear, allowing me to understand the situation.

The probability of Gran coming out to the battlefield right now is low, but the warrior did not. He’s been training with the demon hunters, but he says he can leave at any time.

“Smart guy.”

Moras continued with a chuckle.

“Heretic Questioner Ryzen must still be on the front lines.”

“Yes, it looks like you intend to defend the front for a while. Perhaps, it seems to take the role of a hero.”

“Yes…. There’s only one thing we have to do Gather your soldiers. You are heading to the Demon Realm.”

“Okay.”

Morath exhaled slowly and closed her eyes.

The day he had been waiting for had arrived. He has no better chance than now. The demon hunter and the hero were innocently staying at the school.

The two most menacing men on the battlefield have disappeared. If they were tied up in the academy, it would have already been the same as victory.

“Wait…. We’ll be leaving soon.”

“Gran, come home soon. Be sure to bring your weapon.”

Florina stopped her class for a moment and spoke to me.

“Gran has to win!”

“Honestly, it makes no sense for Gran to lose.”

Today was the preliminaries for the tournament. I thought that if I passed the preliminary round, I would immediately participate in the competition, but the preliminary round remained.

I decided to take her weapon as Florina said. Of course, I didn’t bring my wand. Since she could kill me without knowing if I wielded a 100-kilogram cane, she decided to get another one.

It’s not a cane, but I brought a barbell suitable for use as a substitute for a cane.

The weight of the Grand Gym barbell was 30 kg, which was about 10 kg heavier than the normal barbell.

Booooong!

“Hmm…. I’m sorry about the taste, but this should be enough.”

It was light weight. Still, good for practice.

I headed to the preliminaries with a barbell. The children who were to compete in the preliminary round gathered one by one.

The venue for the preliminaries was a stadium located at the foot of a mountain. It was literally in the woods rather than a stadium.

“Everyone, it was hard to get here. You guys have already succeeded just by coming to this qualifier. So don’t be too discouraged if you fall. Yes, you must have heard about the preliminaries from your homeroom teachers, right?”

Standing on the podium, the instructor gave a brief explanation about the preliminaries. The more he explained, the more the children’s faces darkened.

There seemed to be a lot of dissatisfaction with the sudden news that they had to play in the preliminaries, but there was only one person who could participate in the tournament.

Through the preliminary round, the first place in each class will participate in the preliminary round. After the preliminaries, only one person will participate in the competition held during the festival.

“Why didn’t you announce in advance that there is a preliminary match?”

A child said in a gruff tone.

“You guys fight a lot, so we changed the rules.”

As the instructor said, if the preliminaries had been announced in advance, there would have been a lot of blushing like it was at the beginning of the semester.

Moreover, as a student representing a class, there was a concern that the fight would escalate. Anyway, we were notified the day before.

Come to think of it, it was also too many people to participate in the competition. In the first year alone, there were over 70 students.

The only problem is that out of nearly 80 people, only one can compete in the competition. It was also a competition with those who passed the selection round and passed first place.

The complaints of the other children had no choice but to burst out.

I didn’t really care. Rather, it is beneficial to me. So you can fight more people. If they fail here, the results are obvious in competitions involving senior students.

The rules for the preliminaries were not much different from the first semester group evaluation. First, if you get a fatal wound, you will be automatically summoned. The most important thing is to find the hidden flag.

There was only one flag hidden in the stadium.

If the qualifiers were all about fighting, it wouldn’t have been too difficult, but I also had to find the flag.

Fortunately, the location of the owner of the flag can be known. It was said that the location of the flag appeared in increments of one minute. Time is 3 hours. Whoever has the flag wins.

“Now then, kids, go through the gate.”

I listened to the instructor’s words and crossed the dimensional gate.

When I opened my eyes, I was in the middle of a forest. All I could see was trees.

***

“Who do you think will win?”

“I…. What, could it be that child?”

“Ah…. The kid also stood out. Still, that child….”

The teacher looked at Gran through the screen.

“Oh, I see. The image I showed in the first semester was no joke…. I also think that Gran will win.”

The teachers who were listening to the conversation from the side also nodded in recognition.

Gran ran through the forest at high speed. If anyone had seen him, they would have thought he was more of a beast than Tarzan.

Gran’s first target was the flag. The holder of the flag has a handicap of being discovered, but he didn’t care much.

If no one had the flag, he wouldn’t know where the flag was, so it was best to look around the stadium as quickly as possible.

Even if Gran is strong, if he can’t retrieve the flag, he will be eliminated.

It was the moment when Gran crossed the forest at high speed.

Kaaang!

The knight hiding behind the tree pushed Gran’s body with his shield.

The shield knight flew backwards and fell, and Gran lost his balance for a moment, but he regained his balance by performing acrobatics with one hand on the floor.

“Hmm…. The article is a surprise.”

Shield Knight Hansen hurriedly stood up and drew his sword. He planned to finish the run after knocking over Gran by surprise.

When things didn’t go his way, he decided to change his strategy. Gran seemed to be stronger than I thought.

“Wait! I just apologize for the surprise. I just attacked you because I thought you were running this way and it was dangerous. I had no further intentions.”

“Heh heh, you don’t need to make excuses. Aren’t we competitors anyway?”

“How about collaborating? Shouldn’t we find the flag first? The two of us are fighting here and the time is running out.”

A cold sweat ran down the nape of Hansen’s neck. When he collided with Gran, he felt how strong his strength was. That ignorant-looking rod was more menacing than sharp swords and spears.

Not only was the armor vulnerable to blunt weapons, but the pain was transmitted as it was.

“There is plenty of time.”

Gran said in a low voice.

“Then, just go on your way….”

“I’ve seen my competition and I just can’t pass it by.”

Quang!

Gran kicked the ground.

He raised the giant pole high and slammed it into the ground.

Quaaagh!

The ground was hollowed out, and dirt and stones were thrown in all directions.

Hansen hurriedly backed away, gasping for breath.

‘What kind of bastards are there?’

Hansen had raised his shield before Gran could strike. But in an instant, fear took over. Instinct told me not to block it, to avoid it.

Booooong!

Paaagh!

As Gran swung the pole horizontally, the tree was cut down. The cut surface of the tree was straight as if it had been cut with a sharpened weapon.

‘Lord, I will die.’

Hansen slowly backed away. He seemed to run away slowly to avoid provoking wild beasts in the wild.

But Gran had no intention of letting go of poor Hansen.

“Wait, talk!”

Paaang!

“aaagh!”

Gran hit Hansen’s shield with a 30-kilo stick.

Hansen’s shield split in half with a single strike and flew away.

Hansen grabbed his arm in agony as the shock spread through his shield.

His arm cracked even though he blocked it with his shield. He aimed his sword at Gran, but his heart was already broken.

Teeing.

Hansen’s sword fell to the floor.

“Sure.”

Gran raised his bar high to finish off Hansen. It was the moment to strike down Hansen.

Red light soared into the sky like a flare.

[Shooter, Shisha. Capture the flag.]

Someone found the flag.
