chapter 33
033. Sparring (3)
“Then, start sparring. Put on your equipment.”
The space we sparred at was the place where joint training took place.
In this space, even if you get hurt, you don’t really get hurt.
And if you get a fatal wound, you’re immediately summoned out of the training ground.
The chairman of Velvet Academy, who has a world-renowned authority when it comes to magic.
The setting is a space designed by a demon.
‘As expected, the authority of the chairman is too cheat-like.’
Maybe you can see her at her entrance ceremony. The game starts with her entrance ceremony speech called Velvets.
I checked the condition of our party members while touching the moonlight on my waist.
‘First of all, Kang Do-hee is the same as usual. Shin Se-hee drank yesterday, so she must have been sober. What are the quotas?’
Even though we all finished putting on our equipment and went up to the training ground, the opponents were slowly getting ready and chattering among themselves.
I turned on the detection and overheard the other person’s conversation.
The opponent is a mix of four women and one man.
A tank, a melee dealer, a marksman, and two healers.
It was an ideal combination.
“…… Is it true that they’re worse than us? No matter what, it’s that mad dog and heavenly flower?”
As the timid-looking dealer said, the archer, who seemed to be the head of the party, hardened his face.
“…… He said this was his last chance. If I can’t win this time, I won’t be able to beat the mad dog and Cheonhwa for the rest of my life.”
“Kick. It’s not like they put a leash on it, it’s like they just pulled out their teeth.”
The narrow-eyed tanker said in a sneering voice.
“…… Like that guy.”
And the four women clicked their tongues while glancing sideways at the man standing awkwardly behind them.
The male cadet’s face turned white.
It seems that he suffered quite a bit while training together.
“That, that—.”
The male cadet called them in a trembling voice.
Then they turned their heads in annoyance.
“What?”
“… That.”
“Ha, at least be honest. I’m going to get frustrated.”
“I’d rather have a smooth face like that quota, so that it’s eye candy. What kind of guy is this?”
The narrowed eyes shot at him as if he was displeased.
“Hey, you. Be careful with your words.”
“Okay. If you’re here anyway, you’ll have to bear it. It’s not like I didn’t know that this place was like this.”
“I, that man Joe, you have to be careful.”
The male cadet pointed at me and warned me.
‘…… I don’t remember, but is he also the one who was beaten that night?’
I tilted my head.
But the four women laughed at him.
“Kick.”
“Because we all know that smooth guy has a male quota?”
“Be careful, be careful. Do you well Also, don’t grab hold of your ankles like you did during training.”
Those who gave male cadets their picks.
The party leader spoke without restraining the atmosphere.
“First of all, apart from the quota system, there is nothing wrong with being careful with Cheonhwa and the mad dog. You draw the rabid attention. I’ll surprise you from behind.”
She said to the narrow-eyed woman as she hung an arrow from her bowstring.
“Kick. Leave it to me.”
The narrow-eyed woman climbed onto the training ground with her shield slung around her wrist. She immediately raised her hands as if she had no intention of fighting.
She walked past me with her eye grin through her long slanted eyes.
And the destination is Kang Do-hee.
“Yaha~. Dog fighting! I am a fan! Do you know me This is B-class Hunter Yoon Sera. Same as last time—”
She bent over Kang Do-hee and held out her hand.
“I don’t know.”
Kang Do-hee cut off her words in a cold voice.
Then the woman paused for a moment before continuing in a cheerful voice.
“Aha, well, maybe! Anyway! Today we met against each other in sparring, but from now on we will be the same cadets, so please take good care of us! Kang Do-hee, the party leader!”
At those words, Kang Do-hee spat out a laugh as if it was absurd.
“I’m sorry, but I’m not a party person.”
“Yes…… ? What is that-“
Kirik─
The head of the party over there drew her bowstring, aiming at Kang Do-hee.
[ Kang Do-hee, let’s blow the first bread and start. They see surprise. ]
Kang Do-hee immediately bowed down at my command.
Then, her magic power gathered in her tightly clenched fist.
Shuuk—!
While the narrowed eyes were making a puzzled expression.
Kang Do-hee’s fist was fired at her chin.
Paak—!!!
She hit her in the jaw and fell behind her and flew all the way to her opponent.
Thump!
“Gee, f*ck! Cowardly…… !”
She glared at Kang Do-hee, wiping the blood from her mouth with her hand.
“Damn it. Dalian has already started. Did we come out to chat? Isn’t that the party leader?”
Kang Do-hee sighed and turned her head toward me.
“Sure. Why are they so stupid?”
Shuuk—!
“This is also a surprise.”
Suddenly—!
I lightly cut the arrow that was flying towards Kang Do-hee with my sword.
“…… The quota is the party leader!? Ha, f*ck. Was it a bunch of dogs? “
Slitting eyes sputtered in displeasure as he stood up.
Then she turned her head and called out to her own party members.
“Hey, because I just got hit. There’s really nothing wrong with that b*tch! We just need to george together!”
Nintune lifted her shield, and the party members lined up behind her.
I closed my eyes coldly.
I know that this world is a world where men are weak.
Among them, the fact that hunters are especially harsh towards men is also true.
Because it’s a job where you risk your life in battle with monsters and demons, it’s all about the fact that men who are naturally born weak have no place to stand.
I understand.
I understand.
From the beginning, he was wary of Kang Do-hee and Shin Se-hee, and he didn’t care about me.
‘…… As expected, this is a bit.’
I put magic on the moonlight.
‘I feel bad.’
Then he spoke in a low voice.
[ I’m going according to the plan. Shin Se-hee, because there is no need for power. Attack as wide as possible. ]
[ …… Ah, I get it! ]
I heard the answer a beat later.
As if they had already prepared, an orb of fire immediately appeared above their heads.
Fur r r r r ─
A huge sphere of fire that burns in the air.
“Ha!”
As Shin Se-hee stretched out her hands, the spheres of fire scattered and a rain of fire began to rain down on the heads of the enemies.
Patter—!!
Currently, Shin Se-hee and Kang Do-hee are in a state similar to normal cadets as their magical powers are limited.
In the end, I am the key to winning this sparring.
[ Kang Do-hee. Now, turn to the back while drawing attention. ]
Then, Kang Do-hee quickly threw her body and started spinning around behind her.
“What, what! He said he was weak!”
The appearance of the opponent panicking in the rain of fire that started pouring down over their heads.
“Hey! There’s nothing wrong with this! It’s okay to just get hit!”
Once he quickly figured out that Shin Se-hee’s magic was superficially powerful and did no damage in reality, he shouted.
“Huh!? Is it real Not hot!”
“Hey, hey! Dog fighting!”
They confirmed Kang Do-hee, who started turning behind her belatedly, and turned her head toward her.
That’s how they take advantage of their distraction.
Taat!
I kicked off and threw myself forward.
‘As expected, it’s not bad to be at the party.’
Among the pre-admission students, only those with high grades were allowed to become the party leader.
An archer who didn’t lose sight of me even when everyone was panicking.
She quickly fired three arrows at the same time and aimed them at me.
Love liquid—!
Three arrows filled with magic were fired at me.
─ Kang─! Cagan! Cagan!
Let’s hit the flying arrows with the tip of the sword.
Puffpuk—! Hooked!
The arrow only changed its direction without losing its strength and stuck to the floor.
Eyes wide open in astonishment as if this was unexpected.
She seemed to be trying to use her ear skills even in the midst of her astonishment.
But.
“One way or another.”
I was already preparing her skill by raising her mana from the time I kicked her.
A sword that swung sideways.
Hoo-!
“If the bow dealer is tied up.”
Sword strikes loaded with magic are fired at the opponent.
“Quit!”
She tried to block my attack by lifting the pole with a puzzled expression.
Suddenly—!
“Will it work?”
The bow of the woman who blocked it was broken in half,
Ugh-
“…… No, that’s nonsense.”
She was sent straight out of the training ground with a bewildered expression on her face.
“Pa, party leader!!!!”
“Party Leader!?”
When the party leader was killed while Kang Do-hee was distracted, the party members opened their eyes wide as if tearing.
I immediately turned around and aimed at their back.
Whirick—!
They each raised their shields and daggers with a look of regret.
It’s already too late.
The tip of the sword had already grazed their necks.
Ugh-
Ugh-
Dealers and tanks who were summoned out of the training ground in an instant following the party leader.
They could do nothing but stare at the training ground with empty faces.
Kang Do-hee, who went back, had already subdued the two healers.
Dalian ended so quickly.
* * *
“This, this is ridiculous!!! Come on, senior! What the hell is that guy!?”
The opposing instructor pointed at Jin Yuha with his mouth wide open and said.
“The male quota system.”
Baek Seol-hee crossed his arms and sneered.
“This is not a scam!!!”
It’s a scam.
Really.
Chunhwa and dog fighting were not the problem.
Having them on a leash was no problem.
On the contrary, the leash that should have been wrapped around the guy didn’t even have a muzzle, let alone a leash.
“…… Ha, crazy. Is that a man? No, the male quota system?”
Even after she said it herself, she exclaimed as if it were absurd.
Perhaps, the children couldn’t properly feel the boy’s strength.
You’d think you lost because you were careless about Cheonhwa and Fighting Dog.
However, it was clearly visible in her eyes as an instructor.
“…… Isn’t that just a monster!?”
“Please refrain from such reckless remarks to my cadet.”
Baek Seol-hee said in a cold, subdued voice.
“…… What, what!? Me, my cadet?”
Seolhee Baek put a faint smile on her lips and nodded her head.
“This is the child I will teach myself. Do not covet.”
“…… Crazy.”
She looked at Seolhee Baek with her mouth wide open.
I couldn’t even fathom how many more surprises I would have to face today.
