I Got the Academy Morale Rune - I Got the Academy Morale Rune chapter 57

EP.57 Return and Inspection (2)

-Kaah… !!

The cry of the lizards spreads through the dungeon after a long time.

Lizardmen who almost occupied all directions.

Even C-class monsters are dangerous when grouped together.

However, for me, who had become accustomed to many-on-one battles by attacking the ‘Hobgoblin Village’, the level of battle with them seemed easy now.

Besides, these guys don’t even have shields.

They are monsters that only believe in tridents and strength to fight.

-Kaah!!

– Kaak, Kaah… !!

“Kaak is better than Keruk.”

I think the cry of the lizardman is more friendly than the hobgoblin.

The battle composition was similar to the attack on the hobgoblin village.

Attract their attention with the [Bow] or [Dagger], and defeat them individually with the main battle rune.

The rune I mainly use is [Sword].

Among them, the sword method is a combination of [Wave Inspection] and [Water Inspection].

[Animal movement] was used as the footwork.

Tanks and dealers for me.

The Bruiser has the ability to play both roles.

Diversely distributed runes made him possible, and his evenly grown stats supported him.

[The rune level has risen.]

[The rune level has risen.]

About the time when about 70 Lizardmen were cut down like that.

The information window of the rune level increase that you have been waiting for appears.

“This is real.”

What I wanted to test in this inspection is the versatility of the newly obtained [Wave Swallowing Waves] while catching Swir Leviathan.

We tried to find the range of ‘water-related’ among the special effects of the rune, ‘growth increase and effect amplification for all water-related runes’.

Both [Wave Sword Technique] and [Wave Sword Technique] are sword methods that mimic the shape of water.

The former symbolizes waves that come and go quickly, and the latter is a sword technique that symbolizes waves that flow gently.

So I guessed that the two swordsmanships would fall under the water-related runes.

The word ‘relevant’ can broaden its scope depending on your point of view.

And, as expected, that guess.

fit exactly.

“It has grown faster and has more power.”

When hunting lizardmen using a sword.

It feels much easier than before.

My stats and rune levels may have increased compared to before, but I couldn’t ignore the effect correction given by [Wave Swallowing Waves].

In addition, the level of both swordsmanships has risen to level 8 as of just now.

The unbelievable rate of ascent achieved by combining the growth of the preceding water-related runes and the growth of [Seeker’s Sweat].

Now that there are only 2 levels left until level 10…

Perhaps before being promoted to B-class, the restrictions on the use of ultimate skills may be lifted.

-Kie… !!

A familiar cry was also heard in the middle section.

Toxin iguana.

Although small in stature, a monster that threatens the holder with its swift and agile attacks and [Venom poison].

Against him, I researched how to hit it better than how to hit it well.

This is because he is much stronger than Lizardman, so hunting is difficult, and it is also necessary to check the tank-oriented runes.

[How to fit deliciously! You begin to develop a knack for your defense, which blocks the opponent’s attack with a meat bombardment.]

[The rune level has risen.]

[Acquires 1 Durability with rune inclination.]

[A venomous ingredient flows through your body. Your understanding of dealing with poison will increase.]

[The rune level has risen.]

[Acquires 1 Poison Resistance with Rune Propensity.]

The runes that were at low level achieved steady growth.

The [Beat Defense] obtained from the Hobgoblin Chief has risen to level 5, and as I received the poison of the toxin iguana with my bare body, [Venom Poison] also continued to grow and reached level 5.

“Now, almost all of the main runes are level 5 or higher.”

Except for the runes that can be grown in special situations such as [Intimidation], [Sturdy Teeth], and [Fighting Fours], all of the main runes used in battle were above level 5.

Tanking is tanking.

If it’s a deal, it’s a deal.

Auxiliary Side Auxiliary.

He plays all the roles that will be distributed in the party alone.

There was no such thing as a bastard.

“… There are downsides, though.”

As the number of runes increased, the time to devote to them also increased.

This is one of the factors that slows the growth of runes even if there is [seeker’s sweat].

This is probably an issue I will continue to ponder.

If the growth of the main rune was accelerated, perhaps some runes might have to give up the growth itself.

For example, like [Simple Curse], where you can’t even level up 1 level after acquiring it.

-Kie!

-Kee, key… !!

I looked around and saw an endless number of toxin iguanas.

I had my mind wandered for a while, and they had just formed a swarm.

“… Go, go.”

My choice was [Sprint].

He ran away without looking back.

No matter how strong I am, to be honest, it is difficult to deal with this number of B-class monsters all at once.

To be precise, it can be dealt with somehow.

[Smoldering Flame] and [Swirling Waves].

Now, the two runes that use magical power have established themselves as the only runes for deals.

However, the two runes do not have good compatibility with the opponent’s monster.

Using water and fire against a lizard-type monster has no effect.

The reason Kang Joo-yeon’s magical attack was effective was possible because her fire magic was strong enough to ignore her compatibility.

Perhaps I, too, will be able to deal damage to them if the two magic-related runes grow significantly.

“… Should I just get the Lightning Runes?”

maybe that’s faster

＜Judgment of Fire＞ On the day of joining the intern clan.

I was at Yeouido Station.

Although the clan buildings of domestic clans are widely distributed, most of the three major clans and some mid-sized clans are based in Yeouido.

This is probably because the political and business circles are all located in Yeouido.

As I stood at the exit looking at the tall buildings that seemed to pierce the sky, I felt someone tap on my shoulder.

10 minutes earlier than the appointment time?

He turned his head slightly surprised that he had already come.

“I came early… ”

And when I saw her in sight.

The surprise doubled and I swallowed my breath.

Today is the day that I received a brief introduction to the clan from Joo-yeon Kang, and decided to stop by the clan HR department to confirm joining the internship.

Because of that, I was waiting at Yeouido Station, and as expected, it was Kang Ju-yeon who tapped my shoulder.

By the way…

‘… You’re pretty, but you’re too pretty.’

I stared blankly at Kang Joo-yeon for a moment.

Although she originally has a unique appearance, she seems to shine more when she goes out in casual clothes.

Black jeans that stick to the sky blue white blouse.

With black hair down to her waist.

Even the red necklace I wear all the time.

Costumes that fit perfectly…

It was making her sharp and luxurious image deeper.

‘It’s different from what you see at the academy.’

Is it because there are so many pretty girls around?

Seeing Jooyeon Kang outside the academy, the feeling is new again.

“… hi.”

“Uh, uh. hi.”

Thanks to you, the greeting was one tempo late.

It seemed like he was looking too closely, so he scratched his head in embarrassment and turned away.

“Looks like we haven’t seen each other in a long time. After a week?”

“yes.”

“… haha. It’s my first time wearing jeans. Goes well.”

Kang Joo-yeon’s expression darkened at those words.

… What else did you do wrong?

I’m just going to be more careful.

Fortunately, the answer that came out of her mouth was mediocre.

“Remember?”

“uh? uh huh You only wore slacks. Sometimes I wear skirts.”

Is this too specific?

You feel like a stalker.

Perhaps it wasn’t a bad story though, Kang Joo-yeon turned her gaze away while tamping the magic bag and clothes.

And asked in a low voice.

“… suited?”

“uh. Too. completely. supremely. I think I can wear it like that every day.”

My words poured out like quick-fire cannons.

Oops.

Without realizing it, the truth came out.

Kang Joo-yeon smiled slightly at him.

I didn’t laugh enough to hear laughter, but just making me smile like this is a huge improvement.

The Kang Joo-yeon I know is not someone who can easily see even a small smile like this.

Not as much as Moon Ga-eun.

Maybe it’s because she belongs to the axis of close people?

I somehow felt proud.

“I heard. I was promoted to C class. … congratulation.”

“uh? Uh, thank you.”

Seeing you receive such congratulations.

Now, I have to go somewhere and boast that I am Kang Joo-yeon’s friend.

But I asked with a slightly questionable face.

“But who did you hear from? He didn’t talk much to me.”

“… To Ga-eun Moon.”

“After all, he is the center of all rumors and rumors.”

also too.

roughly expected.

Gaeun Moon, Chaeun Kim, Jinwoo Park.

I only told these three about the promotion…

Because Kim Chae-eun and Kang Joo-yeon are somehow unfamiliar, and Park Jin-woo is not very close with Kang Joo-yeon.

Ga-eun Moon was the only one who could tell me this.

But surprisingly, Kang Joo-yeon greatly sympathized with my words.

“right. Almost everything he says is a rumor.”

“Yes?”

“… Nothing.”

Kang Joo-yeon spares words with a slightly frown.

… I didn’t expect this kind of reaction.

It looks like she has something piled up.

What the hell is Moon Ga-eun doing?

Anyway, we relaxed lightly and started walking out of the station and walking through the buildings.

＜Judgment of Fire＞.

It was the first clan I visited.
