Episode 35 Freshman Hunt (5)
“Listen carefully. ‘Freshman Hunt’ is not an event that can be won easily. Me too, Kim Yu-jung and you too. The skills are definitely excellent, but that’s not enough.”
“of course. Just look at the skills right now. Less than C grade… even if the limit was only B grade.”
Kim Yoo-jung said with indignation.
That would be the case, and the magic she used was usually B-class or higher.
Because it consumes a lot of mana, it is dangerous to overuse it for 3 days, but the more options, the better.
However, in this sub-space, as Gu Ja-in said, all skills above B rank are restricted.
The only magic Kim Yu-jung can use here is simple attack magic and «Change».
The only thing that was fortunate was Seo Eana’s «Sword of Alfheim».
‘Alfheim’s Sword’ is a unique skill. Furthermore, there is no need to repeat casting, which is a weakness of the magic world. We have to make good use of this.’
Even 《Alfheim’s Sword》 is a growth-type skill that is rare among unique skills.
Although its power has been downgraded to the level of C, it is natural that it has overwhelming power compared to other skills.
There is absolutely no reason not to use it in this limited area.
“……Can I succeed?”
Seo In-na’s hazelnut-colored eyes turned to Jae-hyun.
Jaehyun felt a bit reluctant to see her eyes filled with strange trust, but soon nodded and agreed.
“No operation will be completely successful, but for now, this is the best.”
“Yeah… I’ll believe it.”
“don’t worry. Inaya. Even though he looks like such an idiot, he has a good head.”
“If you’re going to give a compliment, don’t you do it right? Do you want to be pinched again?”
Kim Yoo-jung and Jae-hyun growled at each other.
Seo Ina tilted her head at Kim Yoojung’s words and looked at Jaehyun’s face.
Where in the world is that face stupid?
Even without makeup, the jawline and clear features are revealed.
Enough…… Handsome?
‘Ah…….’
The moment she thought, Seo Ina’s face turned a little red.
While Jaehyun was arguing with Kim Yoojung, he turned to Seo Ina for a moment and asked.
“why? Inaya. Any problem?”
“Oh no.”
Jae-hyun felt strange at Seo E-na’s urgent gesture of waving her hands, but she didn’t care much.
Anyway, sooner or later, we will have to start the operation we talked about. I can’t afford to worry about trivial things right now.
“The operation will begin in 30 minutes. Be aware of what has been said. Kim Yoo-jung You know that your role is important, right? Don’t play around, do it right. Got it?”
“hey. of course. Did you forget that I taught you magic theory? You have to use honorifics again to come to your senses, right?”
“shut up.”
As we chatted and laughed, time passed and it was time to start the operation.
Jaehyun, Seo Ina and Kim Yoojung all looked outside the shelter with serious faces.
I see five or six current students still hanging around.
A conversation while armed.
They were the ones who were tracking the party a while ago.
They keep a close eye on their surroundings, not wanting to miss their prey.
Well, it’s a strange situation when three magicians form a team and don’t seem to be easygoing.
‘I have been confirmed by Lee Jae-sang for this method, so there is no problem with the operation. The rest… is just how good these two are.’
Jaehyun planned to use the two to wipe out all the students outside.
one field.
The other is… the sap of the ash tree.
* * *
Near the ‘Nightmare Forest’ shelter.
In the bleak atmosphere of the forest, students can be seen looking for the freshman’s whereabouts.
“Did you find them a while ago?”
Oh Jin-hyeok, the leader of the group, asked. Park Seong-hyuk shook his head.
“no. I think I went into the shelter.”
“Tsk. After all, they are like foxes.”
Oh Jin-hyeok clicked his tongue.
A little while ago he found a prey that he liked very much.
A freshman party made up of three mediocre magicians.
I thought that if I did well, I could easily earn points without much effort.
But what
They were more cunning than I thought.
After trampling them with all sorts of magic, they hid in a shelter before they knew it.
Nerves were stretched out.
Do you dare to play with your seniors?
Oh Jin-hyeok trembled with his fists clenched.
Bloodshot eyes stood in both eyes.
He was going to show some bitterness to these wild freshmen.
“For now, stop the search and tell the kids to hold the position.”
“Ah yes.”
If you went inside the shelter anyway, there would be no way to find it for a while.
The shelter will completely conceal them for a limited time.
It is more efficient to stay here and there than to go here and there to lose strength.
‘Anyway, with time, I’ll crawl out even if I don’t like it.’
Oh Jin-hyeok laughed inwardly and shouted at the party members standing next to him.
“It is a game that can be won by holding out for an hour. Everyone is keeping an eye on you…….”
Seonghyuk Park, who was standing next to him, narrowed his eyes the moment he tried to answer.
“I’m over there!”
“what? What are you talking about?”
Quaang!
I didn’t even have a chance to answer.
The next moment, the «Magic Spear» flew at an incredible speed and pierced the neck of the party member standing next to it.
Soon after, the victim’s body became transparent and a system sound rang out.
―Player ‘Seonghun Kim’ is out.
―Players ‘Min Jae-hyeon’, ‘Kim Yoo-jung’ and ‘Seo In-na’ party earned 100,000 points.
“These bastards……”
Oh Jin-hyeok gnashed his teeth and shouted.
“let’s go!”
Bassrock.
It was Kim Yoo-jung who hid in the woods and fired a Magic Sphere to knock one out.
She quickly started jumping.
At a moderate pace, as if to show them off.
* * *
Meanwhile at that time.
“Whoop! That’s that?!”
Lee Jae-sang, who was watching the freshman hunt while eating potato chips in his private studio, widened his eyes in fright.
‘Uh uh oh how could that battle!’
He was staring blankly at Jaehyun’s battle without keeping his mouth shut.
The scene he saw earlier was Jae-hyeon fighting against Shin Jun-sang one-on-one.
“Mamamama, that’s ridiculous.”
Lee Jae-sang muttered, stuttering a step further than usual.
The reenactment of the battle he saw was unbelievable and in an absolutely unheard of way.
A magic-type raider stepped up to the fore and avoided all martial-type attacks, and, of course, knocked out the enemy with a magically enchanted fist.
Is this really possible?
Lee Jae-sang muttered in dismay, seriously doubting that he was dreaming.
“Yeo-yeo-yi, Jae-hyun is different from other people in some way. Like how you asked me that day.”
lately.
Jae-hyeon came to Lee Jae-sang’s hideout saying he had a few questions.
At that time, he asked about the field where the ‘freshman hunt’ was going on and some herbs, and Lee Jae-sang answered honestly, but he couldn’t help but wonder why he was asking such a question.
When Jae-sang Lee asked about him, Jae-hyeon told him about his plan.
Upon hearing the story, Lee Jae-sang’s face was colored with contemplation.
No matter how you think about it, it was an absurd plan.
In order for a freshman to realize such a plan, he had to be able to deal with at least one or two current students alone.
In fact, even when I first heard the story of Jaehyun, I judged that it was not feasible.
But not anymore.
Jaehyun is now moving out of the shelter to attack the current students first.
It was the intention to put the strategy he had told himself into actual action.
Goosebumps all over Lee Jae-sang’s body.
He stared at the TV screen with a blank face, but couldn’t say anything for a long time.
Just focus on each and every movement of Jaehyun.
“Really. hahaha I’m trying to is Jaehyun. …… Ex-student hunting.”
Lee Jae-sang clearly saw through the intention of reproduction. Reappearance is not about moving to avoid the enemy.
he just
‘Re-jae-jae Jae-jae… I just want to prevent that enemy from escaping.’
Lee Jae-sang’s face was fixed on the TV, stained with astonishment.
There was no hesitation in Jaehyun’s movements to execute the plan.
* * *
Five students started running all at once towards Kim Yoo-jung.
Oh Jin-hyuk was chasing her with Park Seong-hyuk and all three other members.
Min Jae-hyeon and Seo In-na, who were hiding behind a bush at the edge of the forest, gulped their saliva and watched the current situation.
If Kim Yoo-jung fails here, all plans will have to be changed.
Since I didn’t have much time at the shelter a while ago, I didn’t think of Plan B.
From now on, the only thing to do is to designate an appropriate manual according to the changing situation and respond accordingly.
‘by the way. It’s really ugly.’
Jae-hyun frowned at the five men running towards Kim Yoo-jung.
No matter how you look at it, it’s not a good look.
What a scuffle with five current students trying to catch one freshman.
Of course, they may claim that there is a legitimate justification for Kim Yoo-jung’s outing of one of her colleagues, but is it okay to drive freshmen like this, given that she is still a current student?
‘All the people at the academy must be watching, but that’s so ugly.’
There is absolutely no reason for academy cadets to miss such a big event.
They are probably watching their battle on the screen in the TV.
From that point of view, that appearance was not very good even for other people to see.
The six people who were moving rustlingly moved quite far away.
Jaehyun gave a small nod of his head to Seo Ina.
“Let’s part ways. know? Just do what I said earlier.”
“……don’t worry.”
The reply is quite late, but Seo Eana is still a trustworthy player.
One or two enrolled students are strong enough to defeat them alone, and they have excellent judgment.
Jaehyun nodded and headed to the right side of the forest. Seo Eana moved to the left side because she had to part with her and carry out another mission.
‘In the eyes of others, this is definitely an act that would look like gambling.’
Even if it’s not, it’s a team of only three people.
The other large group is already active in teams of a dozen or so.
However, Jaehyun excluded other members from the time Eana Seo joined the team.
The reason was simple.
‘Catching students is something I can do alone. What I need most now is a high-level colleague who doesn’t hold back.’
If this strategy is successful, your team will acquire a large amount of points at once.
I won’t miss a single one.
Jaehyun thought so and clenched his fists.
‘The time given to hunting freshmen is only three days. But the field is far too vast. It is difficult for us to lose name badges while looking for current students. then.’
Jaehyun wrapped mana around his body with a smile on his lips.
“I have to make those bastards come for me.”
He was thinking of going on a sheep hunt against the current students.
* * *
“Ah! really! It’s nasty, they’re chasing me!”
Kim Yu-jung was indignant and glanced back.
She shouted in a loud voice so that some could be heard, but it seemed that the effect was good. Five strong men were chasing her with their faces red.
‘Stupid… How can you be so easily agitated in battle?’
The five students who were chasing after Kim Yoo-jung had no doubts about her moving alone.
He’s just chasing after his colleague who just blew it up, angry.
“You’re not standing there?!”
“What the fuck! You crazy bastard!”
I didn’t care too much about what was coming from behind me, but the swearing was a little harsh to my ears.
Did you put a rag in your mouth anyway?
Isn’t it normal to fight with a loud voice when a junior comes in?
Kim Yoo-jung sighed and looked at her trembling leg muscles.
‘Anyway, I’m slowly reaching my physical strength.’
It is true that Kim Yoo-jung has superior abilities compared to the other cadets, but she is a magician anyway.
It was virtually impossible to win a running match with a martial arts student from the beginning.
She glanced back again.
The current students running from behind are still intact.
A drop of sweat ran down Kim Yoo-jung’s forehead.
‘Let’s see… I’ll catch up with you in 5 minutes?’
It’s dangerous, but the destination is just around the corner.
‘Should I try harder?’
Kim Yoo-jung’s legs were dyed with a transparent green effect, and in an instant, she accelerated explosively.
《Wind Boost》.
It was a speed compensation skill that Jaehyun used when hunting Night Shade the other day.
Meanwhile, the current students following the rapidly widening gap shouted.
“what?! fuck. That bastard suddenly!”
“It’s the last step anyway. catch up soon Keep chasing!”
“uh!? Wait, guys!”
Oh Jin-hyeok slowed down for a moment at the voice calling him.
One of the cadets running in line behind them pointed to a sign hanging in front of them and said,
“Isn’t this dangerous?”
Oh Jin-hyeok narrowed his eyes and moved his gaze to the sign.
-caution! There is 1 creature that grants status ailments.
1 paralysis spore mushroom or less.
“Give abnormal status?”
“okay. If I do something wrong, will this all be ruined? Stop chasing here…”
“What? So you’re saying I have to let go of everything I caught?”
“Fuck the bullshit! fuck. We lost a teammate!”
The voices of indignant party members burst out from all sides.
Running speed slowed down. Their eyes, trembling with anxiety, turned to leader Oh Jin-hyuk.
Oh Jin-hyeok pondered for a while and then nodded as if he had made a decision.
“don’t worry. I knew this was going to happen, so I prepared everything. For now, I’ll go after that bastard.”
“But if you get a status abnormality, it’s hard for even a current student to survive.”
“The Paralyzing Spore Mushroom paralyzes all creatures within a 50 meter radius. Paralysis is the same for that bastard.”
Only then did the running teammates fall silent.
Knowing that this would happen, Oh Jin-hyeok placed a team member outside in advance.
Seonghyuk Park.
It is to have the members who are the same as their limbs stand by in a distant place.
This is a very stupid choice if the freshmen are waiting elsewhere and plan to pounce at the same time.
Park Seong-hyeok is an excellent fighter-type radar. He had skills almost on the same level as Oh Jin-hyeok.
To him, one or two new students in the magic world was nothing.
Oh Jin-hyuk let out a fishy laugh.
‘If you find that bastard’s colleague waiting elsewhere, Park Seong-hyuk will take care of it right away. these guys. I don’t know what you’re thinking, but I won’t let you go.’
And the chase ensued again.
Oh Jin-hyeok and three current students ran at high speed to close the distance with Kim Yoo-jung.
It was Kim Yoo-jung, who used to run first and use magic to increase the distance, but before I knew it, the distance with the group of students began to get closer. “
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ……
It was the chronic Achilles heel of the magical world raiders.
And finally, when the distance from her is less than 20 meters.
The wide, open space in the middle of the forest welcomed them. Pollen and haze floating in the air along with the fresh green grass catches the eye.
And in the center, dozens of paralysis spore mushrooms were spread out.
A smile spread across Kim Yoo-jung’s lips.
“Now you are all done. Raise your hand, starting with the guy you cursed at earlier. Who was that?”
