chapter 2
Episode 2
The test is over.
“… … .”
A great magic that an ordinary exorcist cannot understand even if he spends his entire life, and a higher level of magic that is difficult to find if it is not a ‘named’ level. In addition to that, there are various kinds of rare magics, barriers, shikigami, and so on.
I could just imagine all the spells I’ve ever used in the game, if I could.
“It’s an incredible advantage.”
It was the moment when the ‘Intrabrain Surgery Library’, which was only a B-class characteristic, turned into a morale characteristic that could not be better.
‘Of course, knowing that you can use all spells is absolutely not.’
In the extreme, even with the ability of Han Kang-yoon now, even an intermediate level skill, his body will not be able to withstand it.
Not to mention high-level magic and great magic, there are many other types of magic that have special conditions attached to using them beyond just knowing them.
‘However.’
It was the difference between heaven and earth that it could never be used and that it could be used someday.
And, given the time, I was confident that I would somehow reach that level.
‘It’s unexpected luck. This will make it possible to act a little faster.’
There are two months left until the start of the new semester.
It was a great benefit for me, who was going to use all of them for learning the basics.
‘There is no time to hesitate.’
I decided to start the next plan right away.
***
As I said earlier, the first priority is to get a sponsor to get out of the non-marking.
If so, where do you find those sponsors?
In fact, there were several candidates I was thinking of.
But if you ask me if I can definitely draw their attention now, it’s subtle.
‘No, only one. There are people who will definitely respond.’
Seo Ji-an is one of the second-year students at the Cheonghwa Academy to which I belong.
If it were her, I would be able to catch it with only the card I currently have.
‘I’m a little anxious because there is not much information about the character.’
In the original story, he is known as a second-year geek, and a character who occasionally appears in the main story.
In fact, it is excluded from the heroine position, so compared to other characters, little is known about it.
The illustrations on such a theme were so flashy that it was even said that someone in the production team had a selfish heart.
‘But at any time, a sponsor must be saved.’
Even though she is not from one of the three major powers in the original story, her family, who is accumulating enormous wealth, will be able to provide enough things for me.
jerk. jerk.
So, for the first time since I fell into this world, I was outside the dormitory and looking around.
“… … There is nothing different about it.”
In fact, it is.
It was because there was nothing on the site except for the school building and the downtown area in the distance.
However, as it is a game world, there are many attractions that do not exist in reality somewhere outside the academy. It will be a good experience to visit one day in person.
‘If you follow the story, you will go to some of them even if you don’t like it.’
Whoops.
A cold windy night. My footsteps stopped at the entrance to the lush mountain stretching from the back of the school.
‘It was helpful to carefully read the story of the side story.’
One of the settings revealed in the original gaiden novel.
Seo Ji-an trains her magic every night on the mountain behind the school during vacation.
I was skeptical because it was set in a novel rather than the original game, but anyway, it was worth checking out as it was an official setting.
jerk. jerk.
saraak.
It takes several tens of minutes to get around a certain way. When I finally found the place I was looking for, I smiled.
‘That’s right.’
Blue hair that reflects moonlight. Eyes that seem to have transported the sea. It was Seo Ji-an as it was in the original illustration.
‘It certainly sounds like selfishness has entered.’
As I stared blankly at the unexpected visual, a strong wind blew from above Seo Ji-an’s shoulder for an instant.
“who?”
Noticing it from this town, it was a sensitive sense like a magic user in the natural world, which is also endangered.
There was no need to buy a vigilante, so I stepped forward through the bushes and showed my face.
“hi.”
“… … .”
Seo Ji-an looked at my face and tilted her head as if an unexpected person had popped out.
And then he said with applause.
Match!
“Ah, that short-term waste.”
“Suddenly you say something harsh.”
As a stranger, I didn’t care, but if it was Han Kang-yoon, I’d definitely be pretty pissed off.
Obviously, if she was in Class 1-B, she would have clearly watched the scene where I made the school’s first three consecutive relegation, so I couldn’t help but remember it that way.
“So, the dragon? All I can think of is an ominous purpose to come to you in the middle of the night like this.”
“Maybe you’re just going for a walk for a change?”
“Say something that makes sense.”
At my playful words, Seo Ji-an hardened her expression and lit the wind sphere even stronger.
Well, it was not unusual to have such a reaction.
Because this place she is using as a training ground was quite thoroughly concealed by her magic.
If I hadn’t had all kinds of information, there’s a high possibility that I wouldn’t have been able to find it even if I died and woke up with my skills.
I raised my hands to show my intention to surrender and continued.
“Yeah, I’m here to tell you something.”
“… what to say?”
“To be more specific, it’s a proposal.”
At my words, Seo Ji-an shook her head as if to recite it. Fortunately, there seems to be no attack intention.
“There are so many rumors, you know my situation, right? We need a new sponsor,”
“A subsidy to maintain a nursery school or something?”
“I have it, and I have it for personal use.”
Seo Ji-an didn’t seem to have any doubts about my words. After all, there must be a rumor throughout the school that I’m in need of money.
However.
“Why are you looking for that from me?”
There was no reason for Seo Ji-an to accept it. So, the reason, I had to make it from now on.
“Natural magic is tricky. It is difficult to learn, and it is difficult to follow a precedent because there are so few people who use it.”
“… … .”
Therefore, Seo Ji-an, who insists on natural magic, was known as a geek in the school.
In general, it was because there was no reason to dig into the natural world magic, which was difficult to grow and lack efficiency.
However, on the contrary, there was room for bargaining.
If it was to the point of insisting on such an inefficient method, it was also consistent with the saying that there was a desperate reason for it.
tsuzu.
Whoops.
Behind my back after I finished speaking, a sphere of wind just like the one that Seo Ji-an had created appeared.
Seeing this, Seo Ji-an showed a bewildered expression on her face.
“How are you… … .”
Her common sense won’t make sense.
As it is said, I, who is called the shortest waste of time, was skillfully using that tricky magic.
Of course, it was easy for me to receive help from the intracranial surgery library. It was because all the magic used in the game included the natural magic that Seo Ji-an was studying.
“If you don’t know, let me know, anything other than wind is possible.”
Whoops.
challang.
One more fireball and one more waterball. Now Seo Ji-an couldn’t hide her surprised expression.
“It’s impossible. It’s not like you’re a monster, and humans can’t have so many aptitudes… … .”
“Earth is also possible.”
Kugu Palace.
As soon as I finished speaking, the pile of dirt in front of my feet rose up to my ankle. Seo Ji-an was at a loss for words.
“As you can see, I can use all four universally known natural enchantments.”
Of course, the power itself was insignificant. Because the specs are out of date.
However, it is important to be able to write.
“… … .”
“Isn’t this enough to make you want to invest a little?”
I don’t know why Seo Ji-an was obsessed with natural magic, which is the ultimate in inefficiency, but as long as the reason exists, there is no doubt that she will be tempted by me, who can handle all four attributes.
It was a huge advantage just to have a colleague to research a method of raising that was not even properly established.
“Surely it is.”
“Then let’s have a more detailed conversation… … .”
“By the way.”
After speaking, a sphere of wind began to rise above Seo Ji-an’s head once more. It was even more ferocious than before.
“Isn’t that too suspicious? In the first place, the lack of subsidy was due to a drop in grades, so I dropped to class D, right? But when you can do that much, why did you quietly go down to Class D?”
“uh… … .”
When I heard the story, it was like that.
Because I fell at this point, I thought I would improve my situation again from now on, but in fact, if I had this level of ability, there was no reason for me to fall to the current situation.
‘this.’
Seo Ji-an’s majesty, who entered the battle stance, far exceeded expectations.
To have such a scale on a subject that has yet to establish the basics of natural magic, it was a completely crazy talent.
I hurriedly checked Seo Ji-an’s information with the emotion function.
【Seo Ji-an】
▶Level 31
▶ Ability
【Health: C+】
【Spirit Power: A+】
【Method: B】
【Spirit: B-】
▶Characteristics (5/10)
【Water God (S)】
【Growth Acceleration (B)】
【Daughter of the Wind (B-)】
【Asset Value (B-)】
【Eye of the Hawk (C+)】
‘No, that’s about it, but you didn’t have that much presence in the story?’
Compared to Han Kang-yoon’s, his characteristics and abilities make him feel luxurious.
In my mind, I wanted to ask the producers right away. Strictly speaking, I was also part of the sequel production team.
“Hey, calm down and explain step by step from the beginning.”
“If you feel threatened, wouldn’t you come up with an honest answer on its own?”
It wasn’t wrong. But I couldn’t wait to see if that target became me.
I sighed and recalled in my head a technique I used in a previous game. The effect of the endocerebral sequencing feature that is triggered accordingly.
tsuzu.
Seo Ji-an is a character with many variables as there is little information. The reason why I acted with such an opponent without much thought was simple.
“Let’s say it.”
It was because I had the confidence to deal with any kind of variable Seo Ji-an caused.
shit.
hoo.
“What?”
A technique development performed simultaneously with the snapping of a finger. With that alone, the wind sphere that Seo Ji-an had created disappeared as if withering away.
I fired a confirmation shot at Seo Ji-an, who was raising a question mark without understanding the current situation.
“If I help you, you can too. like this.”
Strictly speaking, there are no formal stages such as basic or advanced in natural magic.
But that’s why it was also a lineage with a clear hierarchical relationship.
Whether to increase the efficiency of the spell or increase the affinity, if you can draw more power from nature, it’s as simple as negating the opponent’s magic.
To put it simply, I just showed that I was clearly on a higher level than Seo Ji-an in terms of wind-related techniques.
And Seo Ji-an would have understood it too.
‘If you’re a natural lover, you can’t stand this.’
On Seo Ji-an’s face, as if possessed by something, the option of rejection was completely gone from a certain moment.
