I Became an Academy Fraudster

Episode 19

Tiriling-

My cell phone rang.

“Hello?”

“Did you think about what I suggested?

“Yes, I have thought about the proposal you gave me before. I would like to see you for a while.”

I told her to tell her how to make her ‘power elixir’ and announce it as if she had discovered it.

When she announces it at the conference, her name is blown as a great magic elixir, and numerous production requests come in.

I went to a nearby cafe and sat down.

I saw her from afar.

“This way.”

She immediately came and sat down in the seat in front of me.

“…Did you think about what I suggested?”

“…No matter how much, it stung my conscience… “

“Teacher. Do you remember what happened today?”

“…..Yes”

She said in a weak voice.

“If you’re in District 1, you’re going to keep doing that. Are you really okay with that?”

“……”

She was silent for a while.

Around three minutes passed. She had tears welling up in her eyes.

She said in a voice full of tears.

“No. I really hate to die. I don’t want to end my life staying in District 1 like this. I definitely want to go to District 5 and live a successful life.”

“Then the answer is fixed.”

“Yes… All right. And what are the conditions I have to accept?”

As expected of her, she was quick-witted.

“My request is simple. No matter how many requests come in, I will take care of my requests first.”

“…?”

She made a puzzled expression.

“Is that really enough?”

“Yes. That’s really all it takes.”

She kept staring at me blankly.

She announces that she has discovered a recipe for a paradigm-changing elixir, but in exchange for that, is it possible to give priority to the production request?

That’s because she doesn’t know her own future yet.

She has to wait several months even for a famous conglomerate to ask her to make her elixir.

She has the right to commission her elixir crafting, right to her? This is an enormous privilege that cannot be converted into money.

“That’s about it, of course. More than anything… “

“More than anything?”

“This is the first customer who believed in me and entrusted me with making elixirs. I am so indebted! Thank you.”

She bowed her head.

“I will do my best not to disappoint you!”

Her voice was full of enthusiasm.

“Yes. I would also like to ask for your support.”

****

“Deon-ah. What do you think?”

“… Huh? What did you say?”

“What is it that you weren’t paying attention to my story?”

Jung Ha-yeon made a pouty expression.

They were talking at a cafe near the school.

My daughter-

My daughter-

The sound of the door opening turned around and Radeon’s eyes turned to it.

“Oh! Jiyoon is here. Here”

Radeon smiled brightly and looked in that direction.

She bowed lightly and went to sit down.

“What is it? Jiyoon, why are you so late today?”

Radeon said as she leaned toward the full circle of her body.

“…I went somewhere today.”

“What? Where have you been today?”

“…It’s a secret.”

“Really? Can you tell me something? Huh?”

“…Sorry.”

It was a completely 180 degree change from the time Jeong Ha-yeon talked to him.

Jung Ha-yeon chewed his teeth.

Looking at Radeon now, Nam Doyoon’s words suddenly came to mind.

Radeon will never like you, and will continue to look only at Cha Ji-yoon.

Unlucky guy.

What the hell do you know?

“..Yeonah Ha.”

“Huh?”

She opened her eyes wide.

“What do you think makes you so startled?”

“No.. Don’t you guys think Nam Do-yoon is a bit strange?”

“…Is that weird?”

“No, the last time I was attacked by a Mine in the Han River….”

She remembered what happened at the Han River.

Before her own arrow was shot.

The demon’s hand, which must have reached her first.

However, her demonic hand did not reach her.

It was because the mine stopped in an instant.

“No, Majin’s movements suddenly stopped right in front of her eyes.”

“A. Even though Doyoon has a bit of an oddity, it is impossible to control the movement of a demon. It’s a matter of directly interfering with Magi. Even the teachers at ‘Elpon’ Academy can’t do that, right?”

Radeon smiled and said.

“Didn’t the dragon that was doing camouflage stop moving somewhere in the middle?”

“…..No, maybe that person is right”

Cha Ji-yoon muttered in a small voice that others couldn’t hear.

Originally, it was nonsense, he himself would have said.

However, he couldn’t do that this time.

Nam Do-yoon gave himself information about the dungeon that hadn’t been revealed yet.

That wasn’t the only strange thing.

An incident in which the blue shield of the rich suddenly broke during the entrance exam.

No matter how you look at it, it was impossible with his own fireball, but it suddenly broke.

I couldn’t be sure he broke it, but if he didn’t, there’s no explanation.

I don’t know about him, but something is different. I can’t pinpoint exactly what it is, though.

“That’s not all. Even in the moment right before I was shot by the Goblin King. It suddenly flew away.”

“I saw that video, wasn’t Beccaria knocked out by hitting it with her shield?”

“I know very well that he doesn’t have that kind of power. Maybe Nam Do-yoon did it right.”

“A. It went too far.”

“No. When I see him, Nam Doyoon is hiding something. Clearly.”

“…Or just in case.”

Radeon said carefully.

“What is it?”

“If you know about demons in detail enough to stop the flow of demons… Could it be related to demons?”

“…No way.”

“If Do-yoon really stopped the demon, it could be. Nothing has been revealed yet about Magi, right?”

“…….Ah. No way.”

Jung Ha-yeon smiled.

“…I don’t think so either.”

Cha Ji-yoon also said.

“No, I just did it. Why is everyone taking it so seriously? More than that, did you guys prepare well for the fitness test tomorrow?”

****

The next day.

Students rubbed their sleepy eyes and stood in front of the playground.

“Okay. Today, as you all know, is a physical fitness test day.”

The teacher said while gathering the children on the playground.

Today is the day of the fitness test.

There are so many different events, such as long-distance running, sprinting, and bench press.

“Then, the first event will start with sprinting. First of all, the first group is Jeong Han-na, Cha Ji-yoon, and Jung Ha-yeon.”

Soon the three of them stood in front of the starting line.

“Go!”

At the same time as that voice, the girls started running fast.

All the men stared blankly at the three of them.

“Hey. Who do you want to date?”

“I am Jeonghanna.”

“Why?”

“You study really well, and you have a very pretty face. I like intelligent women.”

“By the way, have you ever seen Jung Hanna talk privately with anyone?”

“I don’t think he’s ever had one? I’ve never seen him talk to anyone unless it’s absolutely necessary.”

“Aren’t there very few girls who are close to him? He’s very popular, but he always hits the wall first, right?”

“I’d also like to ask Jung Hannah to introduce me to someone she’s close with, but since there’s no such person, it’s really hard.”

“Honestly, in terms of hitting the wall, isn’t Cha Ji-yoon the best?”

“What?”

“Cha Ji-yoon always gives a short answer when you talk to him. Not just a short answer, but a very short answer.”

“Except Jeong Ha-yeon, I’ve never seen a girl who goes beyond two words with her.”

“I just didn’t dare to approach Cha Ji-yoon. She doesn’t even have a background. She’s also the youngest daughter of the ‘Samhwa’ group.”

“Well, even if I talk to you, it’s so cold that I feel like I’m going to freeze, and I can’t even think about it.”

“Ha-yeon is secretly nice to me. Don’t you think she’ll go out with you?”

“Wake up your dreams. It’s a truck only made by kids who confessed and got dumped because they thought like you.”

“No. He really smiles at me and treats me well? He listens to me very well.”

“Ha-yeon does that to everyone. Instead, the moment she shows a crush on the opposite s*x, she cuts it off like a knife?”

“Ah. I don’t know, I’m really envious. Who would date kids like that?”

“I’m sure it’s not you.”

“Do you want to die?”

****

“Okay. One last long run left.”

The teacher said.

I feel like I’m going to die of shortness of breath.

Tee-Ring-

A blue window appeared before my eyes.

[Stats]

Power-1

Agility-1

Stamina-1

HP -0 (+1)

Because of these pitiful stats, it was clear that I got the lowest score in all the exams I took today.

I barely lifted 10KG on the bench press, and it is clear that I received the lowest score for sprinting as well.

Even if only the elixir had arrived, she would have been able to rub it, but she hadn’t arrived yet.

They said it would arrive tomorrow, even if it was just a day earlier.

“Okay. Then, the last is the long-distance running test. Let’s gather all the 1-A classes from now on.”

Students began to gather in front of the running line.

“Okay then. Ready – start.”

With the voice of the teacher, the students started running forward.

I ran forward at full speed from the start.

I was barely able to get into the lower ranks.

“Heo-euk…Heo-euk…”

However, after a minute, I started to fall behind in an instant.

Those guys run around the same way I run at full speed.

“There. Student Doyoon Nam. Aren’t you doing it right?”

While I’m barely running for two laps, the top guys are already on their fifth lap.

I really feel like dying.

I feel like I’m about to vomit and fall over.

“Heo-euk… Heo-euk…”

I was barely holding on to my senses and running.

I’m already two laps behind the lower ranks.

There is no real disgrace like this.

That moment.

Suddenly, the fragrant smell of perfume echoed beside me.

I turned around and saw Jeong Ha-yeon looking at me.

With a frown.

“Hey.”

She whispered in a voice so low that only I could hear.

“Why?”

She looked me over, frowning as if she had seen something she couldn’t see.

“Why are you pretending to be so weak?”

“………?”

What the hell is he talking about?
