chapter 40
40 – Elixir.
A cold silence hung over the training ground at the sudden appearance of Dale.
Judging from the reaction, it seems that the professors secretly gathered the students.
‘You did a good job telling Edin.’
Didn’t I deliberately ask you to call Dale for an unexpected event?
Of course, she didn’t call because she thought she was going to lose.
I just called it in hopes that the professor would take this situation seriously.
‘Especially, Dale, who is particularly interested in me, would be very happy to see the current situation.’
What else would you like to reward?
Barin thinks so for a moment.
“So, Chiesa students. Can you explain why the student you wished to be like that?”
“Uh, hmm. That’s why the junior here attacked me first…”
“Hmm. I know that the student I want to know never attacks someone first, but is that true?”
Dale stares at Chiesa with a smile as usual.
On the outside, it’s just a smirk.
But, is it because of the pressure he feels?
– Knock!
A cold sweat ran down my spine like a waterfall.
Dale stared at him like that.
Then he turned his head to the first-year students.
“It seems that these people will tell the truth rather than you. Cain student.”
“Yes, yes!”
“Can you tell me everything about what just happened?”
At that question, Cain nodded stiffly and explained what happened today.
After hearing all the explanations, Dale looked down at Baran for a moment.
‘Ah, that was it.’
If you think about it, it would be absurd for Baran to lose to the man in front of him.
Isn’t his growth rate different from other students?
If you think of his hidden power, losing to him right in front of you is unbelievable.
So, it would be better to see that he was just beaten on purpose.
‘It was your intention to call me.’
It is natural to punish students who use professors.
However, the story is different if it is something that would be fun.
Dale turned his head to Kiesa, thinking that he should hang out with Baran.
Soon after, he opened his mouth.
“Kiesa students.”
“Yes, yes!”
“They have been dispatched to and from, and they are disciplining their juniors.”
“That, that…”
“This alone deserves punishment, but even that is not enough, do you assault your junior even while using magic?”
At his question, Keyesa clenched his fists with an angry face.
Because I didn’t know that this kind of situation would come.
“Whoa. I can’t. Chiesa students, please follow me right now. Let’s talk about discipline.”
“Yes?!”
The next moment, Kiesa opened his eyes wide.
I never thought that the punishment would be decided at once like this.
But at that moment.
“Wait a minute.”
Baran struggles to get up from his seat.
Soon, everyone’s eyes turned to Baran.
Baran slowly opens his mouth.
“Professor. If that senior is punished, what action will be taken?”
“Mmm. Perhaps at least probation should be given. Volunteer activities are also taking place.”
“What about expulsion?”
“No matter how hard it is, I will not expel class A students so easily.”
At those words, Baran shook his head as if he knew that.
‘It can’t end with discipline alone.’
Those guys like that will repeat the same thing later anyway, even if they are punished.
So, it is necessary to kick them out of the academy.
“Professor, I will make only one suggestion.”
“Yes?”
“If I compete against the senior here and win, how about expelling that senior?”
“What?”
“Whoa.”
At those words, Kiesa widened her eyes.
In contrast, Dale smiles as if he is interested.
“What benefits do I have by doing it…”
“If the Kiesa student wins instead, there will be no punishment?”
The moment she heard Dale’s words, Kiesa shut her mouth.
She never thought she would get a chance to avoid punishment in this way.
“It doesn’t matter.”
“Huh. What about Chiesa students?”
Dale stares at Kiesa quietly.
Kiesa pondered for a moment.
‘Something is unpleasant, but.’
Actually, there is nothing wrong with him at all.
If you are punished, it will be a significant hindrance when you take it later.
The opportunity to get rid of it has arrived.
‘Although there is a penalty of expulsion if you lose.’
To be honest, I don’t think I’ll ever be defeated.
Baran was beaten mercilessly without even using magic.
Of course, there is a feeling that his movements suddenly became sluggish, but even so, wasn’t he himself too powerless?
“Let’s accept it.”
“Yes, then, assuming that both sides have agreed, let’s do it the day after the tour period ends.”
“Okay.”
Kiesa heads out to the training ground with her head down.
Looking at his back, Baran raised the corner of his mouth.
***
A day has passed since then.
In the meantime, the confrontation with Kiesawa at the academy spread even though it had only been a day.
Well, actually, it’s strange that such a big thing happened and the rumors don’t spread.
No, rather, didn’t Kiesa spread it on purpose?
However, honestly, I didn’t pay much attention.
Because, frankly speaking, I have the confidence to beat him.
And thanks to that, I was able to get attention from the student council.

Looking at the status window in front of my eyes, I pondered deeply.
Recently, I feel like my growth is slowing down.
Thanks to the last time I f*cked Kiesa, I leveled up.
However, when I think about the main episode, I feel that something is slow.
‘Although this also seems to grow very fast in fact.’
Still, since it is not a game but a reality, I feel nervous about something.
If you’re lucky.
[Quest occurrence – Win the confrontation with Kiesa!]
[Description: A reward is given to the player who will win the fight against him. Rewards vary depending on the victory process!]
This time another quest appeared.
Thanks to this, growth is not stopping.
Hmm, but somehow it’s regrettable.
That time when I was taking a short break at the training ground.
“What else did that senior say?”
Lilia, who naturally came to the side, asked that question.
Miroel, who had been flying beside her, narrowed her eyes as she appeared.
-That fox came to the disciple to do something again.
Miroelle hugs her from behind as if she won’t hand me over.
I shook my head, trying to ignore the soft touch I felt behind my back.
“No. It’s just because I think growth has been slow lately.”
“You say you are slow to grow?”
“Yes. It is.”
At my answer, Miroel and Lillia stared at me with eyes that seemed absurd.
Soon, Miroel shook his head.
– Disciple. If you are in such a hurry, it will be rather poisonous.
It seems I made a mistake.
As long as Miroel said that seriously.
“The timing is better than that.”
“Yes?”
At her sudden words, I tilted my head.
What do you mean by good timing?
As I put a question mark on her head, she pulls out her pocket.
And then.
“I was going to give you this in return for helping me last time.”
A golden apple appeared in her hand.
I was shocked when I saw that.
Soon, I used my inner eye to look at it.
[Golden Apple (Unique)]
[Description: An apple with magical powers. When you eat this, the level of increase in stats varies depending on the player’s potential.]
Crazy!
Even at the time of testing the game, it was difficult to see the elixir.
Even if you get it at most, didn’t you get it by clearing most of the quests?
However, I didn’t know that Lillia would give it away for free like this.
“Give me this?”
“Yes. You helped me so much, but I have to give you this much.”
Lilia handing me an apology with a smile.
I swallowed dry saliva and looked at the apple.
Soon, he slowly opened his mouth.
“Thank you. Miss Lilia.”
“No. I received help and gave it to you, but this much is natural.”
She smiles seductively at my thanks.
I put the apple in my mouth while dancing inwardly.
Let’s eat all the apples like that.
– Hwaaak!
A vast amount of magical energy begins to flow from my body.
The next moment, Miroelle opens her mouth.
– Disciple. Hurry up and don’t let the mana run out!
Hearing that, I took the cross-legged seat.
Then, I suppressed the rampaging magic power from my body as much as possible so that the magic power wouldn’t escape.
Then after a while.
[You have succeeded in completely digesting the golden apple!]
[All the player’s abilities increase by 10!]
Soon, he succeeded in completely absorbing the elixir.
So I waited for the date of the showdown to come quickly.
