I Became an Academy Genius Swordsman - I Became an Academy Genius Swordsman chapter 4

Episode 4. Selection test (3)

Episode 4

One

When I came to my senses, the armored mammoth was too far away to chase after me.

Jin Hyun-min and Yoo Ji-min looked at the monster’s backside with empty expressions. I could understand what it meant to run away.

The selection test, which was exciting with an all-time big match of geniuses, ended without a hitch.

Just like when they were transferred to the Wasteland, they were moved back to the Great Playground.

The atmosphere of the candidates was untidy.

“What did I see?”

“Is it a real hidden camera?”

The main reaction was that it was absurd why the armored mammoth was suddenly killed.

“I’m not sure if this is what I saw… … Something fluttered in front of the mammoth. petal… … is it? Anyway, I fell down as soon as I touched it.”

“what? does that make sense? And what petals?”

“So you said. Not sure.”

“I don’t know if that’s what killed me, but I’ve seen something shiny, pink or red.”

“really?”

“uh. I’m sure you saw it.”

There were also candidates who were gradually finding answers.

“Ha, I think I may have fallen.”

“cheer up.”

“I’m so depressed, but… … .”

“Oh, come here.”

Some were aware of the reality and were giving comforting hugs.

“It hurts terribly.”

At the scene of the jumble, Siwoo was looking up at the sky with his sprawled face. It was the master of random drawing on the subject of using sword skills for the first time.

It was a weak sword skill, but it was enough to slaughter the degraded monster. Although his body hurts, he was quite satisfied with the results.

“… … .”

I slowly get up to go to the dorm, but my bones scream. When he opened his mouth, he kept his mouth shut tightly in case something like an idiot would come out, then stood up pretending nothing was wrong.

last technique. That was the problem.

“sh*t”

It was good to create a unique sword method, but it was too late.

Hadn’t the last wave started before we knew it?

He swung his sword in a hurry, and he somehow managed to produce good results, but it seemed that his body was strained.

It’s nothing strange. A person who is ignorant of swords squeezed out sword skills… … .

At the time, I thought he was wielding it in an intoxicating atmosphere, proud of having invented the swordsmanship, but it was an act that put a tremendous load on his body.

“Let’s practice… .”

I moved to the dorm while kneading here and there on my aching body.

As he was walking, someone blocked his way.

“Hey, did you do well on the test over there?”

“… … … ”

Siu’s expression changed to a shiver.

It was a girl who asked for a hug saying that she was nervous before Warp.

I don’t know why you ask, and I don’t even want to answer that much. Siwoo nodded roughly and tried to just pass by.

staggering-

‘uh.’

However, even though I was not in good shape, I was very bad.

I tried to change direction, but at that moment, my legs lost strength and my body leaned forward.

And that body was right in her arms.

Although I got out of my arms immediately.

It wasn’t that what I had done was lost.

“Gwa, gwa, gwa, are you okay?”

“… … thank you.”

“Oh no! That, hey, I think I saw it well… … ! It is a test.”

As Siwoo nodded and was about to leave, she hurriedly said,

That’s why I didn’t even answer.

Are you doing this to brag about how well you did on the test? I don’t know why you’re curious about the grades of someone you’ve never met… , I just decided to answer.

“I, um… .”

Since I ate half of the monsters of the last wave by myself, I must have scored quite a bit.

Even the shocked monster ran away as it was, so the other candidates didn’t get any points, so if you were to rank it, it would be high enough.

You don’t have to tell me that.

“I think I saw it reasonably well.”

“That, that, that’s right. congratulations!”

“yes. Then I will go.”

Saying that, Siu tried to pass her by. It was burdensome to gradually turn red like a beet, and there was nothing to say. I’m afraid of what to say.

In the first place, Siwoo, who is not naturally affectionate, does not maintain a human relationship even if it is not a necessary relationship.

In a game that has become a reality, the only important connections to him are the leading NPCs in this world. The person he met for the first time in the selection test will be erased from his memory from this moment on.

He’s an unusual guy, and that one-line summary is a sentence that represents his meeting with her.

It was meant to be.

She grabbed his collar.

“excuse me! Congrats so much, by the way!”

“why?”

Siwoo, who was starting to get annoyed with his body aches and that burdensome way of speaking, replied bluntly.

At that, she flinched slightly.

I called and hesitated again.

It’s the kind of person he hates.

However, treating people with discriminatory words and actions based on personal likes and dislikes is also a human attitude that he hates.

I even caught someone who was about to fall… .

Siu drew a seal of patience and spoke again in a relaxed tone.

“What is it?”

“… … … I want to.”

Then she opened her mouth. It’s because the sound is so low I can’t hear it well.

You can’t see his face because he lowers his head, but even if you don’t look at his neck, you can tell that it’s a blush.

“I can not hear you well. Please speak a little louder.”

Siwoo was curious about what he was trying to say.

He decided to be a little more patient. Opening my mouth felt like practicing.

That’s enough to prepare for that… … .

Even when he proposed to his ex-lover, he didn’t do that.

‘I’m a lover… .’

I started as a designer because of her, and I’m in that game.

The world is really a gist.

“Whoa!”

While immersed in the past for a moment, she raised her head. As expected, it was a bright red face.

Resolute, she put her two clenched fists on her chest and said.

A voice too loud to just speak.

“I want to hug you!”

“yes?”

“I want to congratulate you for doing well on the exam and give you a hug.”

“… … … ”

It must have been the words that entered the ear canal.

Why is my head pounding like a bullet has been put in my brain?

He thought he had heard wrong.

I forgot.

what this world is like

The industry’s best masculine s*x game. Despite the gloomy social setting, NPCs act in a way that is convenient for players.

The developer’s patch, which ignored the worldview and only pursued profitability, created the biggest contradiction in the world.

Isn’t the evidence right in front of you?

Out of the blue, I asked for the grade and he said he wanted to congratulate me and hug me. if this makes sense

Siu looked around.

Kissing is commonplace and some are rubbing their bodies against each other in a sticky way. this is only It is an act of congratulating each other that the selection test is over.

“Congratulations, huh~”

“Ha, you too”

Siwoo rubbed his forehead at the dizzying sight.

“… … .”

It was sad that this girl was at least normal.

‘No, is it abnormal in this world?’

I knew this was the world, but going through it in person meant something different.

You realize that you and them are people from a completely different world, just standing in the same place.

“Hey, over there! I’m not really this kind of person.”

On the other hand, when Siwoo’s reaction was not very good, she quickly continued.

“sorry! I’m really not like this. That, that, the moment I saw that way, that, that… .”

Siwoo didn’t even listen and turned around.

In fact, I couldn’t even hear it from the time I said I would give you a hug.

“I must have seen it somewhere, and that’s why… … .”

Siu moved away, and she couldn’t catch on.

He disappeared into the crowd before he knew it.

She muttered in a more melancholy voice as he watched him walk away by then.

“It’s true… … … . I think I saw it somewhere… .”

A lightning strike fell on Siwoo, who was sleeping soundly at home, no, in a temporary lodging.

“Empty now?”

“yes”

“No, but all of a sudden… .”

“We informed you when you checked in. Then please empty it by 18:00.”

The staff just said that and closed the door. Siwoo, who had been left behind, opened his mouth stunned.

“no… … .”

At least I thought I’d take it off tomorrow… … . Siwoo, who hadn’t heard the instructions, was just regretful.

Less than 30 minutes left until 18:00. Siwoo, whose foot caught fire, began to search for his house urgently.

I looked for something on my smartphone, but fortunately, his address was registered in the delivery application.

Besides, it’s close.

However, his expression did not brighten.

“It comes out, but… … .”

His quivering eyes were fixed on the address.

“Square-dong… … It must be 4th grade.”

There are several differences between the Republic of Korea in Desire’s worldview and the Republic of Korea in reality.

The land stolen by monsters and the borderline drawn, the farther away from the borderline, the safer and better the infrastructure is like a dark fantasy cliché.

Unfortunately, that cliché also applied to Siu. in a bad direction.

Level 4 is the second most dangerous area after level 5.

Although they are ‘treated’ as citizens, it is difficult to receive practical protection under the law.

Although it may not make sense in a world where human rights exist.

In some areas, ‘cracks’ are constantly created due to magical power oversaturation, and monsters emerge from them, and borderlines and military deployments are a matter of course.

No wonder no one wants to live close to the land of monsters.

There is bound to be a difference between a populated zone and a low-density zone, and the difference is mainly money. The reality is that the voices about human rights are suppressed by capital and cannot even be heard.

“I’m from the 4th grade zone.”

Siu thought that the original owner of this body must have gone through a lot of hardships.

I also felt sad that this lean, solid body might have been obtained after going through such hardships.

Siwoo suddenly became curious about the owner of the body. If you dare to match a 4th grade area like a quadrangular dong with a similar place in reality, it is about a slum in the United States.

Like a Desire version of a slum, there are many abandoned orphans and children who do not even know their parents.

perhaps? Siwoo, who wanted to, entered the contact information.

As expected, it was empty.

Even if you don’t have friends, your parents are there… … .

Siwoo, who was looking for more information, soon became convinced.

“An orphan who lived in a 4th grade zone… … .”

Correct.

It was right to say that I had walked the path of thorns or hell, not the path of hardship.

To have survived to this age alone was an achievement in itself.

how did you live

“Have a go?”

There was an exhalation, but it soon faded.

I feel goosebumps running through my body thinking that I have to go to the 4th grade residential area.

Anyway, square dong won’t go.

The problem is back to square one.

You have to find a place to go.

“Should I get a motel somewhere?”

However, there was still a month left before entering the academy. I could live in a motel for a month, but there was no way I could afford it.

18:00 is getting closer.

Unable to decide where to go, Siwoo looked back to the square.

“No, but that’s a bit.”

I hated going to a place where drug addicts roamed the streets like zombies.

Rather than going to the 4th level zone, it was more comfortable to find a crack in the incubation period.

“That might really be better.”

It’s a stream of consciousness idea, but it’s not a bad choice.

If it is a crack in the incubation period, there is no monster. He had plenty of magic power, and it didn’t matter whether he broke down a wall or dug into the ground.

Siwoo packed his things, recalling an undiscovered incubation rift nearby.

He took a taxi and arrived in Gangnam.

It is different from Gangnam, which was famous as the center of downtown Seoul and an affluent village.

There are no tall buildings to prevent damage from flying monsters, and most buildings have a wide cone-shaped top.

“Why are they all motels?”

There were many buildings with neon signs flashing all over the outer walls, as if glitter was added to the cement when the building was built.

Despite the M•O•T•E•L signs at the head of the building, it looked like a futuristic club from the outside.

What is it, a flare that attracts fire moths?

At that time, a guy who looked like a prankster handed Siwoo a flyer.

“The water is no joke today, brother.”

Anyone can see that you are my older brother… … . Siu saved his words.

The yellow-green head leaves with an eerie smile… … . When I turned the leaflet over, something like ‘MT Man: DiCaprio’ was written in the corner.

Shiu, who tore it into shreds and scattered them in the air, turned around, ignoring the woman’s moans coming from somewhere.

The place he arrived at was the entrance of Mt. Gwanggyo.

Instead of a public toilet and a well-paved hiking trail that would normally be in front of it, there was only a terrifying sign saying [No entry after 19:00, all disadvantages taken by yourself] and a dirt road.

I guess it’s good that there is a convenience store.

Siwoo, who bought plenty of bread and drinks at the convenience store, climbed the mountain.

The mountain at night was indistinguishable from one inch in front, but it was possible to move easily using the light of the smartphone and the five senses that had changed almost to the level of evolution by removing the black waste.

Did you wander around for about 2 hours like that?

“found”

I found 8 huge rocks that were sticking together in a round shape facing each other.

A rock that looked like a red rosary in his right hand.

Once on the ground and once off the rock face. With two breaths, Siwoo climbed to the top of the rock and went towards the gap between the rocks.

It looks like a space created by simply touching rocks, but it is a crack. It’s just that the location of the crack was so exquisite that it hadn’t been discovered until now.

Soon after, Siwoo threw himself into the gap.

Like a fairy from a magic lamp being sucked in, his body shook like smoke and was sucked in.

And three weeks passed, and the results of the selection test came out.
