chapter 4
4 – Introduction to the buffer starting with expulsion – 4
The place the nun guided me to was too sh*t to call it a warehouse.
Even in the game, there was a confused description of ‘I came to organize the warehouse, not to clean the garbage dump?!’
Whew… Yes. It’s not okay to give up with this much.
First of all, let’s take the unorganized items inside out.
“Oops. You’re the one who came to volunteer today. Oh… You’re organizing things better than I thought. I was going to let you know if you’re doing something wrong…”
“I’ve done this a lot.”
“It’s fortunate. Even though it’s hard to do it alone… I hope you do well.”
“Thank you.”
Obviously, when I worked in this way in the game, sometimes NPCs came to cheer me on and told me that they would give me more points if I succeeded.
If that was reflected, wouldn’t it be possible to get more points if you did well in this?
It’s sweet from the beginning.
How lucky you are.
I got motivated.
There.
[Strength has increased by 0.01.]
[Spirit has increased by 0.01.]
Muscular strength and mental strength also increased.
Is it because you did manual labor alone?
While I was moving the boxes, roughly wiping away beads of sweat, the message window that popped up was sweet enough to further boost my motivation.
“Hmm?”
There was a case of adding more sugar to the sweetness.
While moving and arranging the boxes, I saw an item different from the existing boxes and junk.
A small, rare-looking box in light purple was hidden among the clutter.
-Click.
When I opened the box, there was a rosary inside. An old rosary that looks quite antique.
Uh… I’m sure you said that one of the jackpot messages in the game was when you found something valuable while working, right?
You’re so lucky.
I took the box apart and hummed.
“Peace like a river to me~ Peace like a river to me~.”
Ji, who practiced while preparing for Lent at the cathedral, continued to work alone while humming a softly audible hymn.
I wish there were more stat increases, but unfortunately there was no additional increase.
But where is this? A journey of a thousand miles starts with one step.
I think these things will be of great help to me.
“Let’s have lunch.”
While she was working for a while, Sister Noh, who had arrived earlier, approached her with a bowl of noodles, a piece of bread, and a drink.
Thank you.
The human body consists of 70% of water, so water, salt and sugar are provided free of charge for the time being. And I was thinking of buying bean sprouts with the remaining 10,000 won and eating wild vegetables from the mountain behind the dormitory.
I will eat properly today.
“I will eat well.”
I have to eat bread later for dinner. I sat alone and ate noodles as if inhaling, then started working again, and when the sun was about to set, Sister Noh came and smiled.
“Nice job. More organized than expected.”
“No big deal. Oh. And this.”
“Oh my God. This is Sister Agnes’s… This is there. Sister Agnes is a nun who went to the Vatican last year. To find the relic she left behind like this… Thank you.”
“Was this a holy relic? I didn’t feel the holy power.”
“Whoops. It’s different from the relics used by the heroes. Anyway, thank you. You did a great job cleaning up the work alone, and even found this… So, should this be enough for volunteering?”
Oh. It is a score that can be directly rewarded.
“Thank you!”
“School starts next week. Whoops. It may be difficult because it is in the middle of the semester, but I would like you to come visit me at any time. We will continue to need a hand during Lent.”
Well. I’m also in the middle of the semester, so it might be difficult to find it easily.
And when the semester starts, many other freshmen will come, so there’s no need for me to come.
Still, this is the only place that serves food, so if you feel like you can’t do it, let’s work and eat here.
There’s nothing wrong with being friendly with the cathedral.
“Okay.”
That’s why I smiled and nodded, and Sister Noh smiled again as if satisfied and went back.
Come on. Then, should I go to the office and get the reward and go back…?
When I entered the office outside the cathedral and handed over the documents the nun gave me, the office staff tilted their heads.
“What you can get as points right now is an introduction to theology… But the skill you can learn with this is ‘Blessing of the Holy Spirit’. Is that okay?”
“Yes, I know.”
“I see. May the grace of the Lord be with you.”
I got it!
Blessing of the Holy Spirit, one of Buffer’s food line skills!
Come on. So let’s go back and quietly peruse!
“Ah. Cadet Kim Yohan.”
When I came back with my legs straight after a rewarding day’s work, an elderly-looking white-haired housekeeper called me to sweep the front yard of the dormitory.
“Here’s the academic calendar and textbooks. The entrance ceremony starts tomorrow, right?”
“Oh yes.”
“Good job.”
“Thank you.”
I returned to my room with the academic calendar and opened it and read it.
There was no particular content. There was an entrance ceremony for new students in the auditorium in the morning and it was written about the assigned classes.
No matter which class you are assigned to, you are bound to get involved with the main and supporting characters. The main supporting characters in Hero Academia are divided into classes.
So let’s not think about it.
The important thing isn’t this, it’s learning skills quickly.
I put aside the school schedule and read the introduction to theology using the Diamond Sutra.
Have you finished reading it four times?
[Skill: You have acquired the Blessing of the Holy Spirit.]
[Spirit increases by 0.02.]
[Holy power increases by 0.01.]
Still, my holy power has gone up.
But the important thing is mental strength.
I looked at the stat window and immediately tried using the skill.
“It works.”
It is a skill based on another religion, but the two overlap. I didn’t worry too much because it was like that in the game, but I was still in the mood to do it, but now I can feel relieved.
Then let’s go to sleep comfortably.
There is an entrance ceremony early tomorrow morning, the start of the main story.
Of course, I have to continue training until I fall asleep.
“Hmm…”
The entrance ceremony, which can be called the beginning of the main story, was nothing special.
Originally, during the entrance ceremony for an academy like this, it’s a national rule to attack monsters or villains.
I was nervous because I wondered if there would be anything different from my memories of my previous life, but there was nothing different from moving to my assigned class after the principal’s long and boring lecture after Elizabeth’s oath.
At least, the special thing was that he saw Yoo Choa with the other class members as they moved?
I couldn’t do anything even if I met Choa Yoo right now, so I decided to skip it for now and entered the class.
I was sitting in a corner seat and using my skills steadily, and gradually cadets came in and filled the class.
And no one came next to me.
Interest, contempt, otherwise a slight sense of superiority.
It seems that the new student who was kicked out of the student council for being a healer who lacked healing was already known as much as was known.
Are you alone from day one?
A. Water lily or ha…
“Oops?! Isn’t that Kim Yohan?! Oh hohoho! I’m meeting a familiar face here! I didn’t know that student Kim Yohan was in the same class! The seat next to me seemed empty, so we sat together… Hmm? What’s with that look on your face? ?”
“No, I didn’t know you were in this class.”
I could hear whispers around me, but Elizabeth didn’t pay attention. By the way, she must have heard rumors about this, but she said she would sit next to me.
“Noisy from day one.”
Then the front door opened. She was a red-haired woman who looked tired.
A class A hero and a teacher in charge of one of the four classes in the game.
“…Heaven…”
As one of the students said, Kim Yeon-ha, a sorceress with the nickname ‘Heaven’.
“Everyone take your seats.”
Everyone moved to find a seat, and Elizabeth pointed to the seat next to her.
“Can I sit down?”
“It won’t work.”
As Elizabeth sat next to her naturally, she looked around Kim Yeon-ha and said calmly.
“Everyone seems to know it, but I’ll introduce it briefly. Kim Yeon-ha, an A-class hero who has been appointed as an instructor at the academy this time. It’s my first time as an academy instructor, but I’ve served as a training center instructor a few times, so I don’t think there will be any complaints about my guidance. . Now, before we start class…”
She tapped her board and showed her papers in her hand.
“Being a hero is never easy. You need not only the talent and aptitude you have, but also the courage, pride, and mental strength to face danger. So… If you’re prepared, sign.”
The papers in her hand soared into the air. As the papers that were randomly flying through the air were moved onto the desk one after another, some burst into admiration and Kim Yeon-ha laughed.
[I swear that I will accept any injury during this course and will not deny the Academy’s training in this regard. And…]
To sum it up, it was no different from a memorandum of physical renunciation.
The academy’s training process is difficult and dangerous.
It’s not uncommon to fight monsters, and there are plenty of cases where villains come out to attack the heroes of the academy.
There are even a few people who suffer physical and mental damage every year when they enter the dungeon.
Nevertheless, no one stopped the pen.
Anyway, the mere fact of entering here must have finished my determination.
“Kim Yohan?”
Well, I’ve made up my mind.
I signed right away, and after everyone signed, a gust of wind moved the documents on my desk to Kim Yeon-ha.
“No cadet gives up. That’s great. Okay. Well, today is the first day, so let’s start lightly.”
Tapping on her platform She flashed her eyes.
“From now on, the 4:1 sparring begins. Of course, 4 is you and 1 is me.”
“Instructor, I have a question for you.”
“What is it?”
“Why four people?”
“Because if there are five people, one strange person might come out?”
“…No, what kind of logic is that…”
No matter how class A heroes they are, the cadets of Hero Academy have been recognized for their talent and receive basic training and education before entering the academy.
That’s why everyone is full of confidence, but it must be staggering to have a 4:1 sparring.
However, you will be able to see in this Dalian that A-class is not A-class for nothing.
“This sparring belongs to the basic performance evaluation and is a sparring to decide which dungeon to go to in the next class. Ah. Make a team with close friends.”
Forcing me to date someone close to me from the first day of class… What a vice.
“Wouldn’t it be embarrassing if I said…?”
It wasn’t that bad.
“Elizabeth Taylor. Max Miller. Sung Jin-ah, Jin Si-yeon. Come out.”
Elizabeth and Jin Si-yeon are leading characters.
It was definitely a concept where the two were childhood friends.
I remember that it was not a particularly strange setting that the Taylor family, a British aristocratic family and also famous as a hero, and Jin Si-yeon of the famous Korean family, Sinseong Jinga, had a relationship since childhood.
And Sung Jin-ah didn’t even appear in the story, Max Miller. He’s a supporting character.
“These four are from 1st to 4th in this class. Now, take turns choosing one by one, starting with Elizabeth, the 1st.”
There are 16 people in this class. If you pick three people, it will be perfect.
“You don’t know who has what kind of aptitude or what kind of weapon they use?”
“When you’re doing hero activities, there are many times when you have to get along with people you meet for the first time on the spot. You have to know how to treat people. But it’s unreasonable to expect that from you guys. Now.”
Four documents presented by Kim Yeon-ha. It is probably a brief description of the cadets’ grades, aptitudes, equipment and skills used in this class.
Because it came out when I was playing games.
“Okay. First place Elizabeth.”
“Kim Yohan! Let’s do it together!”
“No?!”
Not only me, but most of the class were frightened.
Are you insane?
Now, I am widely known as a delinquent who was expelled from the student council.
But you picked me.
“That… It’s kind of like asking me who was chosen. Why?”
“Ho-ho-ho! Leading the weak is a nobleman’s skill!”
