The Golden Sun of the Academy - The Golden Sun of the Academy chapter 122

Chapter 122

main character (2)

Kang Hyuk thought as he watched the golden sun release the back of the archer’s head.

Kang Hyuk feels his strength fluctuate as each day passes.

It wasn’t bad when we first started team fighting.

If you work hard and improve your skills, the reaction of the opponent immediately changes. There was a taste of hard work, and it was visible that his skills were improving.

There is nothing more fun than seeing your own growth with your own eyes.

It’s fun because it looks intuitive, and it’s fun, so I work harder.

Growing again through hard work.

The virtuous cycle continued.

Even if you have low grades and lack of skills to enter the finals, if you match your hands and feet with your teammates, you can easily penetrate the preliminaries.

In the middle, there were some intrusive behaviors of the golden sun, but I was able to put up with it.

But now that’s the limit.

He spat his spittle mixed with fine dust onto the floor.

[How is Hyuk? Was it worth doing today? It seems like you’ve grown up though?]

“… … It wasn’t bad.”

[yes? I started drawing the sword light, so it’s right now.]

obviously grew up To the extent that it is rude to compare it with the previous one. However, the ability of the opposing team against him is faster than his growth rate.

Was it because I lost my points because of the wiretapping device and bought skills and talents that were one level lower than I wanted?

I definitely thought that if I was the [owner of the system], I would be able to grow in line with the improvement of the opposing team, no, even faster.

that was conceit

It was the first talent I had in my life.

I raised my head and looked at the back of Taeyang, who was heading out of the arena.

The guy stretched out his hand holding the black sword, brushed off the soil on the sword, and put it into the sheath.

If asked to pick the protagonist for today’s game, anyone would nominate Geum Taeyang.

Because it was so overwhelming that no one could refute it.

When I think of the golden sun that draws out sword energy, my eyes are furrowed.

The neat connection with the teammates, the ability to sweep the back row alone, and the order that followed in the meantime.

From the generosity given to the losers to the arrogance of laughing at the audience.

It has everything.

On the other hand, what did he do?

Even if they held on to one of the assault squads of the opposing team and made a match, would it not have seemed to Taeyang Geum Taeyang that the weak kids were hugging each other by holding onto each other’s hair?

When I first got the trait, I used to think of myself in terms of the protagonist of a hot-blooded boy’s manga who rises from a tragedy.

The moment that awakened Yeriel felt like a chance.

But it suddenly occurred to me that all of that might be insignificant in the eyes of others.

I also want to shine like the golden sun.

He looked down at his own two hands.

There are a lot of calluses stuck in each knuckle.

Even when I make a fist, I can hardly feel it on my palm because of the calluses.

[Hyuk-ah, what are you doing? let’s go.]

“uh.”

Kang Hyuk also walked toward the stadium door that was slowly closing.

* * *

After dinner, I moved my feet to the cathedral.

It was to meet Chevalier, who had absorbed the attack I was about to hit during the daytime battle.

There was no other reason.

The entrance to the church is still there.

Gray walls and towering spiers.

Even the ivy vines that stand out everywhere.

It is hard to believe that there is a place like this in the academy, which is called the essence of 23rd century technology.

Trampling on the green face sticking out of the weeds on the dirt floor, I headed for the church door.

A wooden door twice my height blocks the entrance.

No matter how hardened her mental strength and body, and even if she could mitigate the damage she received through her characteristics, the attacks she absorbed during the day were not to be taken lightly.

An archer who can use magic kills is rare.

Compared to those who use mediums such as swords, swords, and spears, it was closer to the realm of creation where they create arrows in the empty air with their own magical power.

Therefore, archers who use magic arrows needed superior magic management ability than general melee classes, and after graduating from the academy, they were ranked among the love calls from various organizations.

Predicting from the size and explosive power of the magic blade I hit, if she had held the sword, even if she didn’t reach expert level, she would be at the end of the user’s stage.

Stopping the chatter here, I put my hand on the handle of the wooden door blocking my way.

Chevalier’s identity, which only shows a bright side, is a fallen root heroine.

And the reason was nowhere else.

– Kiki profit.

I entered the cathedral listening to the sound of the old hinges twisting my body.

Upon entering the church, the marble floor is the first thing that catches your eye.

Candles and electric lamps glowing yellowish in the dark illuminated the interior.

The brown-colored wooden chairs are more yellow in the light.

At the end of my field of vision, there is a church, and I can see the back of Chevalier sitting on a chair right in front of it.

If someone passing by sees it, it must be the back of a nun praying reverently. but.

“ha… … , oops.”

The sound of a low rumbling coming from the direction she was in was unusual.

Looking at her back with her shoulders twitching and bowing her head, she sighed and walked towards it.

In the meantime, she has not been able to display her characteristics in the tournament, so I just overlooked it, but from the point of view of receiving help, I can’t just pass by.

To be honest, I wouldn’t have died without her help.

In the first place, it was a kind of ‘contest’ wearing magic protection, but it wasn’t so harsh that the students died.

The referee must have cut it off at the right time.

Part of it gave strength to the leg to take the next step.

The sound of ‘jeobeok’ resonates inside the church.

Hearing that sound, Chevalier saw a flinching back.

As if to show a side of herself that shouldn’t be shown to others, I want to calm her down a little bit.

“Chevalier.”

called her name

So now, as if frightened, he shakes his head.

A blue veil covering the back of her head caught my eye.

Watching her barely turning her head, I approached her.

She starts to freak out at the sound of footsteps approaching.

“Tae, Taeyang?! Wait-.”

Her face was covered with a veil as she spoke as she waved her arms.

However, the parts not covered by the veil are clearly visible.

A trickle of water dripped down his jawline, not knowing whether it was sweat or tears.

Arriving right next to her, without hesitation, I put my hand on her veil and grabbed it.

“Oh, I can’t-”

Pull it straight and remove the veil.

“… … I knew it would be like this.”

Inside the veil was a crying girl with a teary face.

Everywhere on her face is flushed red, as if she had suffered a slight burn.

His eyebrows were burned and half disappeared, and one eye was grayish white, as if he had lost his eyesight.

However, the wound quickly disappears soon after.

As if you had fast-forwarded time. But that’s just what it looks like on the outside.

To be precise, it is being absorbed into her body.

“Hey, let go of this hand!”

“… … you.”

I knew it, but it was shocking to actually see it.

While I felt as if I had been hit in the back of the head and bruised for a while, she snatched the veil from my hand.

-Absorbs damage taken by teammates.

These are some of the explanations written under Chevalier’s ability column.

Absorbs damage received.

That’s a good word for a tank. But that’s only in the game, if it becomes a reality, would it be good for the person who plays the role of a tank?

It’s a physical pain, but it’s okay if you put up with it… … .

It absorbs everything such as trauma, insanity, and psychological pressure that belong to abnormal conditions?

It was like that in the original too.

She takes all the pain herself. stored inside oneself.

A lamb wrapped in the wrapping paper of a saint and forced to sacrifice himself.

A saintess who drowned in the poison she had accepted, unable to finally vent out the pain that had accumulated and accumulated inside her.

that’s chevalier

She swung her veiled face away as if she didn’t want to show it.

“… … Taeyang, did you know?”

“I expected it from your ability description.”

Chevalier sighed after turning the veil over.

“Don’t tell the other kids. They’ll say they don’t want to get hurt or burden them.”

“… … .”

The moment a saintess falls is when the poison accumulated inside her exceeds her limits.

And how much poison has accumulated inside Chevalier over the past 17 years… … .

… … It is inconceivable.

“I don’t want to talk about it now. Please come back later.”

At her congratulatory order, I looked down at Chevalier and left.

* * *

next day. Round of 16 is over.

After the game, Lee Young-woong looked back toward the audience and felt the lack of reaction.

Of course, it was undeniable that the reaction was better than other teams because it is the team that is receiving the most attention.

But it doesn’t fill the castle.

As I walked out of the arena and walked through the corridors, I heard a sudden sound.

It’s not that annoying a sound.

In the first place, since the surrounding itself is noisy, the words would normally just disappear into the background noise.

‘Hey, how was the game today?’

‘Just like that? It’s the same as usual, is there anything special?’

‘Well, who is that? Are you Cha Seung-hyuk or Lee Young-woong? Their team is really good, but it’s a one-sided game.’

‘That’s right. I think even if one person goes wild, I think I can make a decent team go to the finals, but what if the top guys openly form a team and then go crazy like that, won.’

Lee Young-woong, who was sitting on a chair and wiping his sweat with a towel, turned his gaze to the place where he heard the sound as if possessed.

There, a group of people gather in front of a vending machine, pulling out drinks and chatting.

‘That, that healer? Oh, I can’t even remember the name. If he went to another team, he would be able to play an active part, but he gets buried.’

– Knocked up!

The swings who lowered their heads and pulled out drinks casually laughed and chatted.

Of course. It was because they were literally strangers with no contact points.

It doesn’t matter what you think.

Anyway, in Lee Young-woong’s view, their grumbling was at a level that went beyond the gossip of those who didn’t have it.

That is, until the last word was heard.

‘It’s just because I’m jealous.’ The moment I tried to lift my butt off the chair and stand up.

‘Even if there are many main characters, there are too many.’

I hear words that are immediately embedded in my brain.

Youngwoong Lee, who was standing hesitantly, folded his half-extended legs again and sat down.

Pretending to be indifferent, he wiped his chin with a towel and lowered his head.

Even if they left, I hoped that the story they were talking about would end and go.

‘Look at the Geumtaeyang team yesterday, they have a certain one that stands out. This is why ‘how many outstanding kids there are’ is not important, but ‘how sure one person stands out’ is important.’

‘That’s right. Come to think of it, it definitely has a strong feeling of a one-man team. What would have happened if it wasn’t for him?’

‘What’s going on, what’s going on? just go right out It would be fortunate if I had entered the round of 16.’

‘And Lee Young-woong, the guy called the team leader, only bows in the back, so I wonder if he can stand out.’

‘Ah, it’s not unusual for archers to do that.’

After smirking a few times, they left as if they had finished their business.

Even so, he constantly rotated and evaluated other teams.

Only after the voice faded away did Lee Young-woong raise his head.

The towel hanging from the back of my neck slipped down and fell to the floor.

Either that or not, Lee Young-woong muttered quietly, not caring.

“’There are too many main characters.’ … .”

A bloody laugh comes out of nowhere.

It was because he seemed to understand why Cha Seung-hyuk, who was united with arrogance, was so indifferent to other guys.

I watched the final round to see if there was anyone who could be rescued or who could be a threat.

Nowhere in the matches that have been played so far, the guys who just chatted were nowhere to be seen.

It’s funny.

They casually bite and tear at someone who is in a position where they can’t even stand up, and it was so funny to see them.

Even so, it does not mean that what they say is useless.

Opportunities to listen to the opinions of the audience 100% objectively do not come so easily.

but.

Lee Young-woong is not Cha Seung-hyuk.

Because there was only one place I wanted since I was a child.

It doesn’t matter if he really wanted it or was made to want it by his father.

Now, Lee Young-woong wanted that. There is not even the slightest doubt that what you wish for will not come true.

When he thought of himself, he had enough ability to take the position, and now he just quietly hides his claws and waits for the right time.
