chapter 11
[Mana Silencer: Creates a silencer using mana. When using the mana silencer, the gunshots of “Tommy of Al Capone” are greatly reduced, and the magic wave generated when firing is also greatly reduced.]
As a silencer, it wasn’t a bad reward.
The advantage of reducing the sound was good, but what I liked most was the phrase that it greatly reduces the ‘magic wave’.
In this world, the existence of magic waves is practically an essential element for ‘tracking’.
It is the basic setting of this world that even the police usually carry a magic wave detection device to maintain security.
However, if there was a silencer as a reward this time, the story is different.
This was because the weapon could be used without being subjected to basic detection.
Above all, in this world, equipment that reduces magic wave was very rare.
This was because the government thought that equipment that hides magic waves was a great threat to public security, and the government thoroughly managed the equipment that hides ‘magic waves’.
But did you get these equipment in the beginning?
If you have this, you will be able to fight using magic even with your magic hidden, of course, it will be very useful for organizing your business. It could be said that it was a reward worthy of over-achievement.
Truly an infinitely versatile ability. As I was about to press the [Receive Reward] button, I noticed that some students were looking at me and put my smartphone in my pocket.
It was because I could feel Ji Soo-hyun’s cold eyes in front of me.
Are you saying that because you looked at your smartphone in class?
Fortunately, her mood returned to normal when she put her phone back in her pocket.
… … You’re sensitive about this. I’ll have to take note.
“The first match ended sooner than I expected, but… … There is no way that you guys would have gained anything from this, so let’s do the next match right away. Let everyone focus. So, are there any other students who will be competing next?”
After the match between me and Jinwoo is over. Ji Soo-hyeon, who cleaned up the dungeon by moving her hand a few times over the board, looks at the other students and asks.
Then, a hand flashed up from among the students.
“Well? You probably didn’t raise your hand to ask another question. Kim Young-jae.”
“Yes, I want to do the next Dalian.”
I could feel the fighting spirit in Kim Young-jae’s eyes, probably because I had watched Jin-woo’s match with me a while ago.
“Hmm. good night. The unique armament is… … Is it that pen?”
Ji Soo-hyeon makes an interesting expression on the appearance of a different officer who appeared this time as well.
“That’s right.”
“Well, I’m not going to say anything else, since you brought it because you had an idea. If so, who would you like to nominate? Or is there anyone who wants to fight Kim Young-jae?”
Looking around the 11 students, including myself, Ji Soo-hyun asks. At this, someone right next to Kim Young-jae raises his hand.
“yes! I want to do it!”
When I looked at the place where the hand was raised, I saw the figure of Kim Se-ah holding her hand with hardened eyes.
“Is it Kim Se-ah? good night. So both of you can get into the field.”
The two men heard the instructor’s words and entered the dungeon.
If you recall what happened on an uninhabited island, Kim Se-ah is a wizard who uses space-based magic.
As Kim Young-jae, who mainly used elemental magic in the game, is his opponent, this matchup would definitely be of great help to Kim Se-ah, who uses space magic.
I thought it would be nice to have a space-type wizard in the organization, but let’s check what level it is.
“When the field is activated, it will feel like the barometric pressure has risen slightly. It’s a natural phenomenon, so don’t be too surprised.”
Ji-Hyun Ji approaches the board outside the field and pulls the biggest lever down.
At the same time, the two of them flinched and trembled.
Perhaps it was because of the phenomenon Jisoo just talked about.
“Do you feel it works?”
At Ji Soo-hyun’s words, the two people who entered the field nod their heads.
“good night. then… … Feel free to run wild wherever you want. puppies.”
The two moved almost at the same time.
Two people aiming at the opponent while holding up their unique armament, the fountain pen, and the glove on their right hand.
Among them, Kim Young-je was the first to attack.
“appassionato.”
The words that suddenly came out of Kim Young-jae’s mouth were Italian.
Kim Young-je’s unique magic, which puts meaning and magic into words, began to unfold from his mouth and the tip of his fountain pen.
“It’s just like the description I saw in the game.”
Simultaneously with the singing, his fountain pen’s scribbled letters in the air turn into flames and begin to fly towards Kim Se-ah.
As a musical term that means ‘passionately’, the magic he invoked began to blaze toward Kim Se-ah, as the meaning of the word was.
Seeing Kim Young-jae’s magic, Se-ah Kim raises her left arm and breaks her left wrist as if hitting something.
Then, the path of the flame that was flying like a dance is broken, and the broken flame begins to return in the direction of its original owner, Kim Young-je.
Kim Se-ah, who is good at space magic, twisted the path of magic.
“Adagio!”
The word I shouted this time was a word with the meaning of ‘calmly, slowly’.
At the same time, white frost rises from his fingertips written in the air and collides with the flames flying towards him.
A clash of two magical polar opposites.
A huge amount of water vapor generated from this spread like an explosion and colored the surroundings pure white.
A situation in which we, who are looking from the outside of the field, also cannot understand the situation inside.
However, after a while, the monitor that was illuminating the two was converted to a thermal image and the image of the two was lit.
“Hey, steam… … !”
It was Kim Young-jae, who was suddenly bewildered by her limited vision, but her opponent was Kim Se-ah, who specializes in space magic.
It looked like he was using his magic to detect Kim Young-jae’s location, as he was crouching and touching the ground.
I don’t know what kind of ability the glove-type ‘unique armament’ that Kim Se-ah is wearing has, but it seems that she succeeded in identifying Kim Young-jae’s location from the way she is now waking up.
Kim Se-ah, who slowly turned toward Kim Young-jae, points her left hand at Kim Young-jae and sings magic.
“Fire Ball!”
Basic magic that can be used by any wizard unfolds in the hands of Kim Se-ah.
Although he couldn’t pinpoint the location of Se-ah Kim, Young-je Kim, who caught her voice, predicted that attack magic would fly towards him, so he starts running to the right.
“Allegretto!”
A word meaning ‘a little faster’.
Perhaps it was a magic that actually applied a buff to his body, he rolled his body sideways at a tremendous speed, barely avoiding Se-ah Kim’s attack.
And as soon as he got up, he quickly made fun of the fountain pen and shouted.
“tempestoso!”
A word with the meaning of ‘like a storm is coming’, and as a musical term, it has the meaning of ‘vigorously’.
At the same time as Youngjae’s chanting, a strong wind began to blow in the field, and the water vapor in the field began to blow away.
If you look at this, the magic that Kim Young-jae has used so far has a total of four attributes. It was a skill that an ordinary wizard could not even try.
Fire, ice, body strengthening, and even the wind. I must have had that level of skill since my freshman year… … .
Originally, Kim Young-je, a freshman, had to deal with two attributes of magic.
Because that’s the stats I’ve gotten while playing the game so far.
By the way, what about using 4 attributes from the beginning?
If so, I thought there were probably two reasons.
There’s a really great chance that he’s gotten stronger by getting giyeon.
I was hiding my skills and then something stimulated me to show off my real skills.
While thinking like that, the water vapor that filled the dungeon began to fade.
It was because Kim Young-je’s magic pushed away all the vapors around him. It was only then that the two were able to recognize each other’s appearance.
The moment Kim Young-je opened his mouth to sing a chant with a fountain pen to attack again.
Kim Se-ah, who had her left hand outstretched, suddenly sighed and raised her hands.
“… … It is surrender.”
Kim Se-ah declared surrender.
It seems that he just saw Kim Young-jae using four attribute magic and decided that any further resistance was meaningless.
It seems that he still thinks that it is difficult to win with his own strength.
“… … I’m sorry.”
Although Kim Young-jae could handle the four attribute magic, he was not able to cope with all situations.
If he had aimed at the counter through space magic or entered close combat, he would have been able to capture even a weak victory.
Even considering Ji Soo-hyun’s personality, it was obvious that Kim Se-ah’s behavior like that would not have looked good.
When the match was over, the door of the field opened, and the two of them came out of the field, exhaling harshly.
And Instructor Ji Soo-hyun, who looks at these two and smiles.
“Both of them suffered. If I could give you two feedback about Dalian, first of all… … Youngjae Kim. To use that level of magic at that age. To be honest, I was quite surprised. I hope you can handle multiple attributes so easily.”
“thank you.”
“It would be of great help if you could develop another application of magic that you can use. It’s also a good way to develop your physical abilities. If a mage who handles multiple attributes like you has the physical ability to continue fighting, there is nothing more troublesome.”
As she said, there was nothing more troublesome than being a wizard who could handle various attributes and even becoming physically capable.
Are you even persistent in responding to any attack? I still trembled when I remembered that those guys were the most annoying in the game.
“And Kim Se-ah. It would have been better if I didn’t give up there and struggled a bit more. Personally, I feel a little sad.”
“… … sorry.”
“Still, I have seen the art of using space magic to turn an invisible enemy into a specific thing or a magic trajectory. Originally, it is common to think of a space wizard as a wizard who mainly detects. However.”
Ji Soo-hyun, who showed a smile, pats Kim Se-ah’s hair, which was exhausted.
“Instructor personally likes to use space magic as aggressively as you have shown. If you develop that ability a little more, you will be able to become a space wizard who can do enough for one person.”
“yes… … ! thank you!”
Is it because Kim Se-ah uses space-based magic like herself? There seemed to be a sense of pride in her advice.
But, how come I don’t remember seeing such a talented person in a game?
Even on an uninhabited island, what she has shown so far has been impressive enough.
If you had that level of skill in your freshman year, you would have become a well-known hero after graduation.
But no matter how much I think about it, I have no memory of hearing the name ‘Kim Se-ah’ while playing the game.
… … Will something happen later?
With that thought in mind, I clapped my hands like other children at Se-ah and Yeong-je as they approached me.
After finishing the match, the two approached the audience with a satisfied expression on their face.
Perhaps thanks to the influence of the field, the two were in a state where even after such a fierce battle, there was no scratch.
Even though the two of them fought so intensely, what was it about Jin-woo, who lost his mind like that?
Thinking of Jin-woo, who was still lying in the health room, I started to feel sorry for a while.
‘Wow… … .’
All of a sudden, my mouth felt bitter.
