Madman in a Fantasy World - Madman in a Fantasy World chapter 87
87. PvP event
Time passed quickly and a month had passed.
Even for a month, the pounding training department with Richie continued.
For three days without classes, he continued to attend the Adventurer’s Guild.
On the 2nd day, a C-rank monster much stronger than a Salamander. On the 3rd day, a B-class pony monster.
Because it was rolled like that, Richie became thinner every day. It felt like I had lost the weight from my skinny body from the beginning and left only my bones.
It was then that for the first time I could see what happens when a person is pushed to the limit.
It is said that you have to go through the crisis of death to grow, but if every day is a crisis of death, that is pain as it is.
Still, Richie didn’t say a word of complaint. Why? Even with that shit, the breadth of growth was palpable.
After the first day, Richie, who came to me on the second day with frizzy hair, said as if she was amazed.
Certainly, the amount of mana has increased compared to the previous day.
Of course it has to be. Because catching monsters grows much faster. If I had any complaints in the first place, I would have given up a long time ago.
Then there’s no reason to go to the academy, is there? If you’re only aiming for growth, everyone should be an adventurer.
However, Richie is still in the first year. I knew it when I looked at the academic calendar. In the first year, the curriculum was structured around theory rather than practice.
As the grade goes up, the proportion of practice increases, but Richie can’t stand it until then.
And the academy has a name.
As an easy example, think of a brand from a previous life. The price soars to hundreds of thousands of won just because the brand logo is embroidered on a T-shirt, and people know wherever they go that they graduated from a university named Seoul.
Just like that, just by graduating from the academy, you can become a talented person who is recognized wherever you go.
Even after the 3rd day the academy was off, the leeches were still rolling.
She had been given a class exemption from the class A professor under the pretext of having private lessons with me.
You can think of it as something like field experience learning from a previous life.
It would be right if it wasn’t the same originally, but it was possible because Richie was the chief and he had that much trust.
Liche, which had been rolled like that for a whole month, definitely got stronger. If it didn’t get stronger, I rolled it until it got stronger.
Of course, while training, there were issues for a while.
Arthur, who couldn’t find Leeche within the academy these days, came to us through a search.
He asked why his heroin was hanging out with me. But the fuck he’s following me, not me.
The heroine follows me around because the main character is incompetent, but I’m just annoying. Come to think of it, I was fed up with a silence punch in the face.
Arthur was sent to the health room as is, and was not seen for a day.
Such a daily life continued, and time passed, and it was the day of the PvP event.
***
“Look at how many people there are.”
We are currently sitting in the professor’s assigned seats at the large training ground.
The large training ground was designed in such a way that spectators surrounded a large space in the middle, and it was divided into several small training grounds in the middle.
Except for the reserved seats, the audience seats were full of people and noisy, and all the seniors, including the seniors, were waiting for their seats.
Even the students who had been out for long-distance practice came, so the number is considerable.
The only people who are not in the audience right now are the students participating in the interpersonal competition today and the professors participating as coaches.
Of course, I don’t fit either way, so I’m just sitting on the professor’s seat and watching with my legs crossed.
“Ugh… there are too many people, so I think I’ll get sick.”
“me too.”
I was also an unemployed person in a room in my previous life, and Yui was also confined to a corner of a room until recently, so I hate places with so many people.
Honestly, it’s free whether you come to see it or not, but I brought popcorn because I can’t miss a good spectacle.
“But isn’t it okay that there is a separate professor’s seat?”
“It’s fine at least.”
Luna seems fine as if she was an insider before she became a slave.
“It sure looks like there are fewer third graders.”
Although they were third-year students who had nothing to do with interpersonal warfare, everyone came, whether they wanted to watch it or not. However, compared to the 2nd and 1st grade, the number is significantly less.
The reason is probably because there are many expulsions and dropouts.
Everyone feels their limits and drops out early, or like Luke in the past, they are expelled for poor grades.
That’s why when you reach the third year, it’s practically considered graduation, and it’s enough to be called an elite not only within the academy but also within the empire.
In fact, the students graduating from the academy with combat-related skills are adventurers, and in terms of military power, they are no different from B-class adventurers.
“It’s still a lot.”
I have to send them all as assistants.
Everyone becomes a graduate student like that.
“Hello, Professor Temporary.”
As we were examining the seniors closely, a female professor I had seen before sat down next to us.
“Who are you?”
However, we only know faces, but we don’t know anything about names or each other.
All I know about her is that she is an academy professor, and all she knows about me is that I am an adventurer and currently a temporary professor.
“Come to think of it, I haven’t had a full statement yet.”
The female professor introduced herself as Liana Lindsey, the homeroom professor of Class C.
So, we each responded with introductions.
“But what are you here for?”
“It’s just that. I hope this seat is empty.”
Liana gave a small smile.
But in my opinion it’s goofy.
There is no such thing as a person looking for a person. Even now, just looking at it, I feel like I have something to say.
Seeing that, he secretly tipped Luna.
“A flower snake?”
“…don’t judge people’s favor like that.”
I heard a voice.
No, in common sense, if a woman who shows favor to the person she just made a statement about is not a flower snake, then what?
“What kind of world did Luke-sama live in…”
The world I was in was a battlefield where you had to keep your hands in your pockets if there was a woman you didn’t know next to you.
I was talking to Luna, and Riana hinted.
“Actually, it’s nothing special. I heard from Professor Effert that the professor invited by the dean personally trained the first year senior, and I was curious about what kind of training he gave.”
The number of people invited by the dean personally educated the academy’s best talent.
Of course, I am curious about the contents of the education.
But unfortunately, there is not much to say.
“Have you been hunting all this time?”
That one word was the end.
There’s nothing to hide. In the first place, it’s my policy to answer if you ask, and I’ve only actually hunted.
“Is that the end…?”
“yes.”
Well, there are many ways to become stronger besides hunting.
During the work, Arthur circulates magic power in the magic circuit to widen the circuit, and increases the maximum amount of magic power by continuously emptying and refilling the magic power.
There are many ways to train, but in the end Arthur grows up with monsters and demons.
“From now on, the interpersonal battle begins!”
At that time, a voice echoed throughout the training ground.
A blue-silver haired professor was standing in the middle of the large training ground, and as if he had put magic into his voice, he could hear each and every pronunciation accurately even though the audience was quite far away.
“The start of Dalian will be signaled by each supervisor at the training ground! The victory condition is if the opponent is judged incapable of fighting under the professor’s judgment and the opponent surrenders! You can only bring one weapon provided by the academy, , All other weapons, magic tools, and artifacts are prohibited! So that we can compete fairly!”
It wasn’t that long, but it was an explanation that had everything to go into.
It was also a line I knew from reading the novel.
I didn’t actually explain it, but in the case of foul play or manipulation of something, it will be treated as a defeat under the professor’s judgment.
So even if you don’t have to say it, you’re telling me to do it.
“Looks like it’s finally starting.”
“Yeah.”
The waiting time is really long.
It’s like going to the cinema and watching useless commercials.
In reality, it’s less than 10 minutes, but it feels like 30 minutes.
After Professor Cheong Eun-bal, who was in the middle, finished talking, two people at each training ground climbed the stairs to the training ground.
Opponents in Dalian are completely random regardless of skill and rank.
then what happens
As an example, the top and bottom may meet.
Then you might think that it’s not good for you, but since I’m a professor, I’ve heard something beforehand.
It’s not just how much you win in this test that’s reflected in your ranking, but how much you show.
You just need to show that the last person can block and endure the chief’s magic, show excellent magic control, or show that you are definitely stronger than before.
Then, after the professors who are supervising judge them, they say that the rankings will change after summarizing them.
“”Dalian begins!””
After voices were heard simultaneously from each training ground, explosions were heard from everywhere.
However, the places that received the attention of the audience were limited.
Of course, the interest of the audience is the colorful side. It means that there are students who are as strong as they are brilliant.
In a way, this is natural.
To be honest, if there was a monster colosseum, Ogre vs. Minotaur would be more fun than Goblin vs. Warwolf.
“Looks like everyone worked hard.”
Liana said with a smile.
I haven’t been here in a while, and I’m not interested, so I don’t know.
Since Riana must have seen all the students so far, she should be able to confirm the extent of their growth.
Even so, in my eyes, it’s all shit.
Naturally, the students below finished without a big deal. Enough to just shoot and roll a few spells.
After several sparring sessions were completed in a short time, the next student went up right after the training ground was restored with restoration magic.
Among them, there was one student who stood out.
“Ah! Student Arthur!”
Everyone’s toilet. It was Arthur.
“You know what? I see that student all the time, but I think the speed of his growth is amazing. It’s different every time I see him.”
He’s the main character and he’s the possessor, so it doesn’t make sense that he’s growing slowly.
To be honest, I still think it’s slow.
“It’s not as good as Professor Luke’s, but I can guarantee that if the ranking changes this time, I’ll go to Class A!”
she said proudly.
We didn’t even say a few words in conversation, but I think I know what kind of personality he is.
A few good nobles.
“Ah… but, of course, the other party.”
Why is she sad
Of course, as it was created as a protagonist recognition change event, the opponent must be stronger than Arthur.
At the same time, it has to be a character that can be a rival.
There is definitely only one person who satisfies all of these conditions.
Daio Brando.
He climbed the stairs opposite Arthur to the training ground.
The reason Professor Liana feels sorry for her is probably because she still thinks that Arthur is not good enough for Dai-O.
But Dai-O always loses this time. This is a set story.
Eventually, when the professor announces the start of the sparring, Arthur fires a new model and shoots at Daio.
Arthur was stupid at worst and honest at best.
Literally, he rushed in a straight line and swung his sword.
A guy who isn’t without magic like me makes such a stupid attack.
‘A real asshole.’
Do people become stupid when they hold a sword?
I had to throw away the psychological state of having to engage in close combat just because I was holding a sword.
Even though he was fighting so stupidly, the world was pushing Arthur’s victory because he was a foothold with the main character.
Daio also tried to fight back hard, but as the battle continued, he physically fell behind Arthur, who was a warrior.
A fight scene that seemed to play over and over again passed by.
The result was, of course, Daio’s defeat. The fight was quite long and flashy, but that was all.
From my point of view, having seen Sea Serpent’s breath, the academy students’ magic looks like child’s play.
Daio went down the stairs with a shocked look on his face, but now he will start trying to die.
And Arthur stopped going down the stairs, looked somewhere, smiled and winked. The direction was the direction where the heroines were waiting.
“Woo-wook. I hate it.”
The sight made me feel nauseous without even realizing it.
It seems that I am using the love knowledge I learned in my previous life as a light novel here.
“Wow… that’s a bit…”
“·······.”
Yui and Luna also frowned as if they had seen it.
No matter how probable the main character looks, if he does something like that, he will lose his liking.
“Mr. Luke! Hey! Mr. Richie is here!”
At that time, Yui tugged at my sleeve and made a fuss.
Looking in the direction Yui was pointing with her finger, there really was a body.
On the other side of Richie climbing the stairs, as expected, Tia was there.
A confrontation between senior and second-in-command. It was enough to grab the attention of the audience.
“I can finally see the results of my tutoring!”
Liana said.
It must be curious about Lee’s growth.
I assure you, it may have been boiling in the early days, but now the top and bottom seats are the difference between heaven and earth.
A battle started soon after.
It was Tia who flew water and ice with great vigor.
-bang!!
As if he had no intention of looking at it, Richie immediately exploded the fire.
‘An explosion is the right attack. cancer.’
I couldn’t see anything because of the acrid smoke, but soon the smoke disappeared and the only people standing in it were Richie and the professor.
Tia didn’t faint, but she was exhausted from just blocking one shot, and the professor, who judged that fighting was impossible, declared Leeche’s victory.
Richie, who was returning to the stairs, suddenly looked around, made eye contact with me, smiled and drew a V with her fingers.
“·······.”
Liana, who had been noisy until just now, closed her mouth this time. It was something that you could tell how surprised she was without even asking.
And on the contrary, I laughed.
“hehehehe…”
It was the moment when the drill was completed.
***
The interpersonal warfare continued even after that.
Even if the main characters, the heroines and Arthur, are over, it is no longer a novel, but a reality, so the opportunity for other students does not disappear.
And so did the assailant sitting on the rooftop in the distance.
“Hmm~”
Since it was not a novel, there were no longer set events on set dates.
Originally, the event was supposed to start when the dean, Lucia, was away and the student, an infiltrator, handed information to the assailant.
Luke killed the infiltrator, leaving the assailant unaware of the academy’s circumstances.
So, from the point of view of the assailant, he had to decide for himself the best time to attack, and that was now.
An interpersonal event where students and professors all gather in one place and lose their stamina by beating each other.
Thinking it was a red flag, the assailant stood up.
“There may be a dean, but… even the dean, with my abilities, it will take some time to get out.”
After several incidents occurred at the academy earlier, Lucia spread a barrier to detect demons throughout the academy.
demons or demons. No, not only that, but it captures everything related to Magi.
That’s why it was impossible to go in and kill or kill directly like before, but there was no problem because he could use his abilities outside the academy anyway.
The assailant stretched out his arms, palms up.
Then, dark and shady energy gathered in the palm of my hand in the form of a sphere.
“Now, it’s your turn~”
The orb in the assailant’s hand flew through the sky and stopped above the academy outside the barrier.
And, from the dean’s office where Lucia was supposed to be to the large training ground, a huge barrier was put on that prevented any light from being seen.
“Strike as hard as you can. Against an opponent you can never win against. Hee hee.”
