I Got the Academy Morale Rune - I Got the Academy Morale Rune chapter 29
EP.29 Forgotten Dragon (1)
A room with deep darkness.
All kinds of wines are displayed in the room like a collection.
From rare wines that ordinary people cannot purchase…
Even cheap wines you can buy at convenience stores.
Even a stranger could recognize at a glance that the owner of this room was a wine collector.
The owner of this dark room.
Cha Soo-yeon looked out the window and slowly savored the wine.
Life is bleak after losing a lot…
When I drink wine like this and see people from the outside world.
She still felt alive.
“Chief. There seems to be a problem.”
An exhilarating voice was heard.
A man kneeling on one knee and bowing his head.
A freshman who entered the holder academy as a second class assassin, and holder of the <Villain> clan academy branch.
It was Ji Yoon-jae.
Anxiety rushes to the subordinate who arrives without notice.
But Cha Soo-yeon asked with a smile.
“Mmm. What could be wrong?”
What the <Villain> clan had planned for Seoul Holder Academy has not yet started.
If I had to pick just one…
A B-class monster appeared inside the academy through the special item [Odd Bait] that summons monsters?
It wasn’t even an all-out war.
The possibility that the [Magic Barrier] could simply be broken.
You showed him to the academy.
Right now, it’s only in the preparatory stage…
There was no room for any problems.
But from Ji Yoon-jae’s mouth, a really problematic story came out.
“The academy underground dungeon seems to have been attacked.”
“Well?”
Cha Soo-yeon’s eyes widened a little.
It was as if he had heard something strange.
After she took a sip of the wine.

Ji Yoon-jae raised his head with a long hand.
“What does that mean?”
“The artifact that was linked to the entrance of the underground dungeon responded. Apparently, it was discovered by other holders, and the attack seems to have been completed. Considering the performance of the artifacts, it’s probably certain… ”
“It’s Yoon Jae.”
“Yes, branch manager.”
Around Cha Su-yeon, her magic began to rise little by little.
Her mouth is smiling, but…
His eyes were incredibly cold.
“What does that mean?”
“Ugh. Gagging- Branch, blind… Cuckoo.”

Ji Yoon-jae, who was kneeling on one knee, collapsed.
He was lying on his stomach in a twisted position.
He exhaled with a painful face.
Cha Soo-yeon’s trademark [Unbearable Gravity].
The magic of this rune was poured upon him.
A feeling of pressure as if choking.
A threat posed by the overwhelming strength of gravity.
[Unbearable Gravity] was an extremely dangerous rune.
After Cha Soo-yeon puts the wine on the table.
In front of the place where Ji Yoon-jae fell, he bent his knees and sat down.
“Umm- Yoonjae, are you sick?”
“Great – no… is.”
“lie. being sick.”
Cha Soo-yeon flicked her fingers lightly.
Then the pressure on him was relieved a little.

Ji Yoon-jae gasped and breathed heavily.
“Heh-uh-huh-”
“It’s Yoon Jae.”
“Yes, branch manager.”
“Do you know how much the undiscovered dungeon is worth?”
“Yes. I know.”
Undiscovered dungeons, or untapped dungeons.
A hidden dungeon where you can receive rewards related to holder information by the system when you first complete the capture, and also take over the rewards in the rest room, the last room.
Any holder wants to find it…
Anyone who finds them will try to attack.
<Villain> Clan Academy branch recently.
They were preparing to attack these undiscovered dungeons.
Cha Soo-yeon smiled and asked again.
“I asked the clan for support, did you know that I was able to attack in just a week?”
“Yes. I know it all too well.”
“I trusted it because it was the first dungeon Yunjae discovered… What the hell is this? No one found it.”
“sorry. Something I’ve probably missed… ”
“Umm- I can’t, after all.”
I got an unwanted answer.
Cha Su-yeon used that logic to cast magic again.
“I think Yoon-jae needs to get a little crazy.”
“Uh- oh oh oh oh- sa, save me… ”
Once again, [Unbearable Gravity] exploded on Ji Yoon-jae’s body.
… Was there an answer you wanted in the first place?
Such a question was meaningless.
The <villain> clan doesn’t work with common logic.
It’s a collection of bizarre, cold-blooded psychos.
* * *
When I opened my eyes, it was a familiar ceiling.
The ceiling of the dungeon that I have been attacking for the past few days.
A dungeon made with a cave-like structure caught my eye.
As soon as I saw this, I immediately tried to stand up.
But I felt intense pain all over my body.
In particular, injuries to the left shoulder are excessively painful.
I had to bend over again regardless of my intentions.
“ah! uh… .”
“Do Jaehyun, are you okay? It’s still hard to get up.”
Was she taking care of me when I fell?
Mun Ga-eun hurriedly supported me next to me.
It was out of the blue, but I felt her hand quite warm.
Something doesn’t fit with her bubbly personality… .
Moon Ga-eun was subtly different from her appearance.
I grabbed my left shoulder and looked around.
“Any other kids?”
“I’m sorting out the magic stone and rewards in the boss room. When you wake up, I will distribute it.”
“What if I wake up?”
Then I saw how far down I was.
I even remember catching that damn lizard chick.
Moon Ga-eun nodded and said.
“yes. Your role was the biggest in finishing the attack. Of course, I think it’s right for you to have a choice.”
“Ah, it was only when we caught the boss. Dealers did it all when they caught common monsters.”
“Don’t say that. Thanks to you, we were all able to live.”
“… It’s disappointing.”
The boss room was the most dangerous in this dungeon raid.
It was here that I felt the danger of death.
Did everyone think the same?
I felt sincerity in Moon Ga-eun’s words of gratitude.
She looked at me for a moment and then asked.
“How is your body? The shoulder looks serious.”
“It’s okay because I poured out all the potions I bought. shoulder what… You should go out and receive treatment from the divine-type holders.”
Buying potions in bulk from Choi Arin was a godsend.
Even though I used most of them…
Anyway, thanks for saving my life.
I think I’ll have to find Choi Yu-min and Choi A-rin later and say thank you.
There was a serious injury to the shoulder.
This can only be treated by divine-type holders.
It is a world where holders make their own abilities a profession.
Here, it was more effective to visit the ‘Sacred Healing Center’ run by the Shinsung-affiliated holders rather than the hospital doctors.
If you pay enough money.
They treat any trauma.
“But I don’t have the strength to get up yet.”
“Can you help me?”
“Then thank you.”
So, with Moon Ga-eun’s support, I slowly got up.
She put one arm of mine on her shoulder and the other hand grabbed my waist.
Normal support posture.
But maybe it’s because they’re too close.
Unexpected body parts also touched each other.
I was taken aback for a moment and looked away.
‘… It’s embarrassing.’
Moon Ga-eun is really…
It seems to be very different from what it looks like.
On the way to the boss room with her support.
The information windows that had been pushed back appeared at once, cluttering my eyes.
[You have won the duel! Victory is recognized for high contribution in duels. With the mysterious power of the Rune Hunter, you can duplicate one of your opponent’s runes. Please select a rune to duplicate.]

An information window about the runes obtained by hunting Grizzly Drake appeared.
As expected…
Grizzly Drake is all the monsters that haunt the dungeon.
It was a boss monster with their runes intact.
[Lizard’s Scale], [Animal Movement], [Strength], and [Fighting Four Legs] are ‘body-related runes’ possessed by the monsters encountered at the beginning and the middle, respectively.
Grizzly Drake had grown these runes to the limit, so he showed such overwhelming fighting power.
Especially considering the defense that showed tremendous power.
[Lizard’s Scales] almost reached the Max level, I thought.
Since I already have all of the runes, [Overwhelming] was automatically selected and registered as a rune.
After [Rune Hunter] and [Seeker’s Sweat].
It was the first Epic Rune to be acquired.
‘Performance is great… .’
I stuck out my tongue as I read the rune information of [Overwhelming].
Every single thing you see in the information window is just an attractive effect.
First of all, it is a mind-related rune.
Mind is a fairly important stat for the holder, but my stats are on the low side.
Therefore, acquiring runes that support the mind is precious from my point of view.
There are special effects.
When fighting an opponent with a lower stat than yourself, the effect is supported by that stat.
If my strength is higher than the strength of the opponent, then it is possible to fight with the strength supported by 5%.
This is probably the percentage that varies depending on the level.
It was a special effect worthy of the name of [Overwhelm].
‘That’s why Grizzly Drake was so strong.’
Even if it’s an A-class monster and a dungeon boss.
Our party was never weak either.
Kang Ju-yeon is a B-class holder, and the rest of the party members are C-class holders who show superior skills even within the same grade.
Park Jin-woo and I have just reached the C level, but we have a lot of special abilities, so we are competitive enough.
It is safe to say that it is a standard B-class holder party that hunts A-class monsters.
However, a dungeon gimmick that completely ignores magic attacks.
And the combat power with [Intimidation] or reinforcement runes overlapped.
Because of these various variables…
Grizzly Drake couldn’t help but be stronger.
‘The declaration of war is also useful.’
When Grizzly Drake met us for the first time, the skill that put ‘fear’ in the abnormal state, [Declaration of War].
It is quite attractive to be able to inflict temporary but status ailments on the opponent during battle.
In particular, it is difficult to obtain skills with abnormal status…
The related runes were also on the rare side, so it was nice to see them.
If there is one flaw, it’s about an hour long cooldown.
Still, there seemed to be plenty of room for use.
“Jaehyun! it’s okay?”
“Oh, are you awake?”
Leave the rest room and return to the boss room.
Kim Chae-eun and Park Jin-woo welcomed me.
Next to him, Kang Joo-yeon was also looking at me with a relieved face.
… It’s kind of an awkward welcome.
Obviously, an attack that risked their lives together seems to create a camaraderie.
There was hardly any awkwardness when entering the dungeon for the first time, and it seemed that only a certain sticky feeling remained in the party.
I smiled awkwardly and raised my hand.
“Sorry to keep you waiting. They said they were checking the compensation.”
“yes! I’ve got it all sorted out. Come and see.”
I moved to the touch of Kim Chae-eun.
Arranged neatly in the middle of the boss room…
Various magic stones and items.
The true flower of untapped and undiscovered dungeons.
It was time to check the restroom rewards.
