I Became a Genius by Running Away From the Academy

chapter 38



38 – Inside the theater after the play (4)

“It doesn’t make sense.”

At my words, Siyeon Han, who had fallen on the floor, jumped like a freshly caught fish.

As if you were saying that, he was glaring at me with burning eyes, but unlike his violent reaction, his mouth was quiet.

Well, I had no choice but to be quiet.

Eup-! Ugh-!

Because he kept swearing and saying he would kill me, so I made the shadow into a gag and covered his mouth in fear.

“Anyway, this time it’s over with my victory.”

The sparring with Han Shi-yeon did not end with just one.

Originally, I was going to fight it once and finish it, but it ended up like this, and I fought a few more times with the mindset of turning on my homework for the game while turning on the computer.

Thanks to that, I got three wish tickets, but the important thing wasn’t that one.

“Maybe it’s because it’s the third time, but this time I can see that I’ve definitely grown a bit.”

After the battle, it was a light punishment for feedback and motivation for growth.

“However, there were still many regrets.”

Pook-!

Eup- Ugh–!!!

When I opened the lid of the autographed fan, Siyeon Han moved her head frantically, as if she had guessed what I was thinking.

“I don’t mind shaking my head, but wouldn’t it be better not to? It’s me, I end up with a bit of graffiti, but if you do something wrong, you could go blind.”

As I said that and grabbed her face with her shadow, Han Shi-yeon gave up and entrusted her face to me.

In that state, he looked straight at me with his burning eyes as if he would not forget this humiliation, but it was a familiar face.

‘The person who lost 10 times in a row in a game promotion match I saw in a PC room had a face similar to that one.’

Well, Han Si-yeon’s face now looked 10 times more frightening than it did back then.

‘To be honest, I feel like I’ve already done too much for myself, so it’s a bit scary, but…… ‘

Sug-

‘But since I’m already on the tiger’s back, I’ll have to finish what I’m about to do.’

As I cleared my mind, I moved my mouth along with the pen.

“To put it simply…… You are so stupid.”

As I said that, I wrote on her forehead that it was a big lost dog.

Since I knew what I was writing on my forehead and was looking at it, Han Si-yeon had another seizure.

“Well, to put it a little differently, should I say too naive? Oh yeah. It would be better to say that the fighting style is too one-sided.”

She gave advice based on the numerous videos she had seen so far, and Siyeon Han finally calmed down a bit.

And then she jiggled the shadow, but it seemed like it just wanted to say something, so I let go of that part.

Because Zhuge could always be replenished anyway.

“…… What does it mean that the way you fight is fixed in one direction?”

“Well, to put it simply, should I say I grew up specializing in dealing with one enemy?”

Sometimes, among beginners, there was a case of raising a character in this way to clear the first boss somehow.

Well, in this case, it seemed like a problem because the only person I could fight with was the kid next to me.

“In your case, your twins are probably the target.”

“Can you even know that?”

“Roughly, everything about you was geared toward dealing with quicksword-wielding enemies.”

At my words, Siyeon Han bit her lip.

Hmm, but was the tiger a cat, not a canine?

I should write an ‘X’ for dog and change it to cat.

I like that it gives off a cheap feeling.

“I don’t know if that’s the case anyway, but you try to counter all my attacks the way you deal with the quadruplets.”

Let’s put it simply.

It is often said that overpowering strength is speed, and overpowering speed is change.

It gets a lot more complicated the deeper you go, but the basic principle is this.

“But you are ignoring that now and using the method of dealing with enemies who attack quickly against me, so do you have a chance to win?”

Did you understand?

I said as I drew a panda in her snow pit.

Hmm, the pan is thin and hard to fill.

I’ll have to be content with just sketching it out.

“Then what do you want me to do?”

“Simple. We just fight a lot.”

Jjiik-

“That’s just a problem that can be solved naturally after fighting a lot with various people.”

And for that, the circle could be said to be the best environment.

Because Circle is a place where talented prey came from all over the place.

“Aiming to become a teacher would be impossible right now. Well, for now, let’s aim for the first place in the grade simply and clearly, okay?”

Simply said, but it wasn’t easy.

Befitting the generation the main character belongs to, this generation is overflowing with talented people.

“Otherwise, learning a new sword technique would be fine.”

“Do you want me to come and learn something else?”

“You don’t need to learn it deeply, just lightly learning it is enough. Just doing that will change the way you feel through the sword, right? Eventually, everything will come together.”

I roughly mixed up what the main characters in the novel said.

I’m a newbie who has just jumped into a fight, so I’m just saying it in moderation, but it’s probably right.

No.

“Well, I said it a little grandiosely, but to put it simply, you should decide your fighting style and a sword.”

I said while lightly placing my hand on Siyeon Han’s cheek.

From a distance, it might look like they were kissing, but in truth, they were just pulling the skin a little to better write the handwriting on their face.

As I was writing down all the words that came to my mind on the right cheek, Han Si-yeon looked me straight in the eyes and said.

“…… What is your fighting style?”

Look at him?

“I told you to get away from your twins. Are you trying to train with me this time?”

I said, writing stupid in the last space on my cheek.

Hmm, there’s still a left side left, but I’m already running out of things to say.

‘It was comfortable a while ago.’

All I had to do was to sit down on the fallen Hanshi kite and have a conversation while prodding her with my fingers.

I was thinking about it, but referring to a mesgaki manga I had seen in my previous life, I wrote ‘a idiot who can’t even use a double sword properly’, ‘an idiot who can only deal with a double sword’, and ‘apologize to the twin swords’ on his left cheek.

For reference, I did not put a heart at the end of the words.

“Tell me to think about it with an example!”

“Oh, is that so?”

I said while making a whirlwind with a pen.

“But I won’t tell you anyway.”

“What is it, you bastard?”

“That’s because you have to figure out these things on your own.”

In fact, I couldn’t even tell you.

I was still in the stage of deciding my fighting style.

‘No, I’m worse than him. I’m a two-week sandcastle, and this one’s about the size of a rock tower.’

At my words, Han Si-yeon looked at me with a puzzled expression, but she had nothing more to say.

“Well, you can do it. You are a genius.”

I finally put the fan on the neck after writing ‘Still, I have talent’.

“…… Hey, let me ask you one thing.”

“I don’t mind asking, but won’t you answer me?”

Fishik-

“You never beat me.”

Having teased Han Si-yeon’s skin, which was soft and white like her snow-white skin, I said that and took a step back from her.

“Well, I still can’t give you a chance.”

Dak-

“Let’s fight one last time.”

I said that and changed the stage.

Seeing that, Han Shi-yeon stood up from her seat and frowned at her.

I was surprised that I still had enough energy left.

But it wasn’t really that great.

Pu-wook-

She just kept putting the magic recovery ampoule she bought at her shop into her back without Han Shi-yeon noticing.

‘I’ll have a hole in my back if I do this.’

Well, since this is the last time, let’s do our best.

I muttered that to myself and looked at Siyeon Han.

“Now then, this time, before we fight, let’s start with an overdue request.”

“…… What.”

Han Shi-yeon said while covering her own chest area with her hands.

Perhaps it was because her breasts weren’t large enough to be covered by that, but her gesture looked rather like a tempting one.

“Look at him? Are your feet cracked?”

“What, what! Until then, what’s wrong!”

At my words, Han Shi-Yeon blushed and shouted at her, but she ignored it.

“First of all, my first request is simple.”

“Hey! Are you ignoring me right now?!”

“Don’t tell anyone that you saw me.”

As I continued to speak, Han Shi-yeon pursed her lips and nodded her head as expected.

However, he did not calmly respond to my ensuing request.

“And secondly, take credit for me defeating this guy.”

“This guy?”

“Hey.”

I pointed at Monica, who had fallen to the floor.

Han Si-yeon’s expression became strange when she saw that.

“I don’t want to step out. So let’s announce that you defeated him. Oh, it’s okay. I’ll text you later with info on this guy.”

“No, who is this?”

“Huh? Didn’t you tell me? He is the culprit that caused this disaster today. Her name is Monica Aylion, the villain who was called ‘the selfish young lady’.”

“What?! Is this him?”

Han Si-yeon belatedly looked at Monica’s dead body on the floor with a startled expression.

I can understand your surprise, but for now, I want you to pay attention to what I said.

“The third request is that if I make a request through the device in the future, do it absolutely unless there are circumstances beyond your control.”

“…… What are you thinking of doing?”

Han Shi-yeon raised her hand near her chest again, she said.

“I won’t ask you to do anything strange, so stop looking at me like that.”

It was just to get them into dungeons where they could become stronger or to train them efficiently.

“Oh, and as a bonus, I will tell you the location of his lab and information about the mines he fought today. Don’t go through other teachers, let the principal know.”

“How did I meet the principal? No, he wasn’t at school in the first place.”

As the headmaster of the circle, he was a resourceful man with great abilities, but at the same time a great superhuman.

That’s why he spends most of his time staying in the demonic realm, outside of the Inn.

‘If he had been in the circle, this kind of commotion wouldn’t have happened in the first place.’

Because they would have all been subdued at the same time that Mine appeared.

“Well, don’t worry. If you just wait and be quiet, opportunities will arise on their own.”

“Can’t we just tell the teacher?”

“Oh, that’s not okay.”

I said shaking my head.

“Some of the teachers are related to the villains.”

“The teacher is colluding with the villain?!”

At my words, Han Shi-yeon opened her eyes wide and made a surprised expression.

Anyway, he had such a rich expression.

At the entrance ceremony, all I could see was a sullen expression.

“I’ll tell you in advance, you can’t go anywhere about this. Because it hurts.”

“…… Even if I tell you to say this, I won’t say it. It’s not something that can be said without evidence in the first place.”

I did.

“That’s all right. Ah, I don’t have anything special to do with the last request. Just don’t forget what happened today and don’t give up and keep trying to become stronger.”

“…… Putting aside the content, why do you have four requests? You must have beaten me only three times.”

I said calmly.

“Yeah, I said it in advance because it was obvious that I would win this time too.”

“Damn it.”

Sug-

“I will win this time.”

Han Shi-yeon said as she picked up the sword on the floor.

“So I’m getting ready to answer the question I was about to ask you a moment ago.”

“I don’t know what the question is, but as long as I win, it’s fine. Oh, and it’s a little bit of a simple decision, so I’ll fight your way this time.”

I reached out my hand while saying that.

Shuaaak-

Then a shadow puppet the same size as me appeared in front of me.

“You…… Are you going to deal with me with that?”

“Yes.”

I said while looking at Siyeon Han, who was frowning.

“Why? Hurt your pride?”

“No, I won’t hurt my pride. I won’t even be careless.”

Clap-

“I am just annoyed by this current situation and my skills.”

I smiled slightly at the satisfactory response.

“Okay then, by the way, if you beat this doll, you’ll think you beat me, so do your best.”

Of course it won’t be easy.

‘No, rather, this must be the most difficult.’

Under normal circumstances, the shadow puppet owner is stronger than the shadow puppet.

But I am against it.

I can handle my shadow better than my body, but my body possesses an absurd balance of talents that I can’t handle like mine.

“Now then, let’s start a swordsmanship match.”

I focused while manipulating the doll.

Now, the most important thing.

It was time to tell her about the weakness of her white tiger swordsmanship that she was learning.
