Parallel World Academy

Episode 16 Debut. (2)

Wait, can’t you do this line?

It’s a typical survival flag.

Anxiety creeped in.

After a while, there was still no sound to announce that the training was over.

And, that worry soon became a reality and returned to me.

Jade, who got up with his jacket off, was slowly approaching me.

“It was almost over. It was a good goal.”

I couldn’t believe it.

It wasn’t enough to react to the surprise, did you even get it invincible?

I felt like my strength was running out.

It was practically the last chance, but to be blocked like this in vain.

Do I have to surrender like this?

I’m so sorry.

I wondered if there was any way to overcome this situation, so I started looking around.

Meanwhile, one thing stood out.

A wire that has been cut and has only sparks.

It must have been cut off by the blind memorization that me and Jade were throwing at me.

I’m not sure that will happen, but if the thread I made was electrified, wouldn’t it be possible to use that to make a comeback?

By the way, that guy’s invincible cooldown is running.

Anyway, the plan was already messed up, so I thought it was worth a try.

OK, let’s try it somewhere.

“It’s a rough finish, so let’s talk about this simulated battle. Today’s evaluator, Aina. What do you think?”

“As for Park Seong-jin, I don’t think the idea itself is bad. He knows how to use his surroundings, and he’s been good at analyzing the opponent’s weaknesses. However, I don’t think you underestimated your opponent too much. Of course, it’s a surprise that anyone else would have worked for, but I don’t think it’s a tactic I’d try against Jade.”

“A sea of agreement. Then what about Jade?”

“Should I say, ‘Nothing has changed significantly since then?’ The idea of using the memorization that Park Sung-jin used was fine, but that’s about it. The first surprise attack is an unexpected attack, so you may get hit, but it was a little disappointing to be hit by the second surprise.”

“He was unparalleled in terms of strength and physical ability, so it didn’t work out in the end.”

“You can’t just rely on it forever. Because the world is full of people stronger than Jade. Besides, my opponent, Park Seong-jin, is very poor in direct combat ability.”

Vincent responded by nodding his head.

Others did not disagree.

Because it was a theory.

However, Chloe, who was quietly sipping tea from behind the cadets, suddenly got up and broke into the conversation, as if she could not agree with that opinion.

“Do you really think so?”

“Chairman Chloe was also watching. Anyway, what are you doing here?”

“I heard that the cadets I was watching are going to make their debuts, so I couldn’t help but come and see them. In the entrance exam, I used a very strange thinking ability.”

“I don’t know. So far, I haven’t used any special ideological powers. The head itself seems like a decent guy, but I don’t think it’s at the level of much interest.”

“So that’s what it means to be watching. I don’t know if I can’t use it because there are restrictions on how to use it, or if I just don’t use it, but if I could just use my skills, the game would probably have ended easily. I can assure you it would have taken less than three seconds.”

They all exchanged glances of dismay.

It wouldn’t be a lie if Chloe Lumiel, who was in charge of Spica among the Great Triangle of Heaven, who was once called the strongest in the world and still defends the place, said so.

Besides, the ability to look foreign to her, who has lived for more than a century.

I had to think a lot.

“What on earth did you show in the entrance exam, so you react like that?”

“I don’t know either. As soon as the test started, the dummy was immediately destroyed. I couldn’t even see what it was.”

“Isn’t it telekinesis or the ability to manipulate energy?”

“Professor Vincent, I’m not old enough to recognize that.”

It was a friendly tone, but anyone could have noticed that he had an ear.

While everyone was only watching Chloe, Alfred took the gun and turned the story to prevent the atmosphere from getting worse.

“Then why did you pass the exam without knowing what kind of thinking power you had?”

“Because I passed the exam. Just not knowing a candidate’s abilities is not a reason for disqualification.”

“It is highly unlikely, but is there any chance of being an awakener of a reality manipulation system?”

“It is not an impossible story. However, as you know, reality manipulation is one of the abilities that consumes a lot of thought power. It is also very difficult to deal with. Of course, it’s a different story for an expert, but I don’t think a kid who has just awakened his thinking power will be able to clean up piles of all levels at once without stopping.”

“It’s strange. Park Seong-jin said that his main ideological power was foreknowledge of the future, so he had no aptitude for battle.”

“Did you say that with your own mouth?”

Chloe frowned.

as if it couldn’t be.

“To be precise, you said you knew the future. Chun Hyun-woo’s ‘eyes that see the heart’ were also guaranteed to be true.”

Chloe turned to look at Oscar, who was quietly listening to the story.

As if he knew that even Oscar would, he immediately made eye contact.

It wasn’t clear exactly what that meant, but everyone knew it was going to be fun.

“It’s not that I don’t have the ideology to be involved in the future. However, I don’t think Park Seong-jin’s ideology is like that.”

“Then what happened to Chun Hyun-woo’s case?”

“I don’t know. Either he possesses a specific artifact, or he is familiar with an Awoken who has future foreknowledge and learned through him. There are many ways. Whatever it is, that friend named Park Seong-jin, I’ll have to take a closer look in the future.”

“Did you feel or fail to do something strange in the entrance exam?”

“Nothing. There was nothing particularly strange about it. If I had to pick one thing that I remember, it looked very depressing, didn’t it? It was to the extent that I thought that even if I lost the whole world, I would not be able to make that kind of expression. The answer was only very vague.”

“Wait. Sungjin Park started to move. I thought he was going to do something.”

* * *

I untied a thin thread and tried it against the cross section of the wire laid on the floor.

It seemed to be quiet for a moment, but after a while it was actually completely burned out.

It doesn’t seem to last very long.

Still, I thought I’d give it a try.

Because I checked that the current was flowing even for a moment.

Immediately pull out the long thread and spread it all over the place.

And then, Jade came into my street and waited for it to touch the thread.

“Are you not going to give up?”

“You can’t do anything stupid like surrendering after writing a dirty trick.”

“That’s the part I have to admit. However, the results will not change.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Jade began to run down the road.

Seriously, is that the speed of a person suffering from paralysis caused by neurotoxin?

It was something that could never be done with willpower.

It could be said that it was only possible in the Jade Age.

However, I had no intention of being left alone.

Thinking that this was truly his last chance, he focused all his attention on the guy and the cross section of the front line.

ok right now.

Just before Jade’s body brushed the thin thread, he connected the end of the thread to the exposed copper outside of the sheath.

At the same time, the scene where Jade’s body stood upright and collapsed came into view.

[Winner, Park Seong-jin. Training ends.]

I’m glad you’re lucky.

No, I said luck is skill.

In this case, it would be right to say that I am glad that I did well.

“Today’s lecture ends here. Everyone worked hard.”

Vincent, as usual, left the classroom with an empty notebook.

Just as I was wondering what the significance of that note was, I saw Jade holding his forehead and grimacing.

It must have been quite a shock.

Of course it would be.

It is shameful enough that I lost to myself, who had almost no combat-related abilities, but the scene where I fell to the floor with my eyes closed was broadcast live to the professor, classmates, the chairperson, the dean, and hundreds of other spectators. I’m going to sell

I’m afraid to commit suicide

James seemed to understand the pain.

Normally, it wouldn’t be strange if we had teased them all day long, but today, I’ve been busy watching Jade’s eyes and flirting.

As I was about to leave the classroom, a group of three approached me.

“It was a fun battle. I like the unique idea. Thanks to you, I was also inspired. Unlike those who give up easily, I can feel the will to solve the battle in your own way.”

It wasn’t a big word, but to me it was like a ray of light.

In fact, it was a little bit dead.

I’m not the type to be very conscious of other people’s gaze, but I don’t think there’s anyone who doesn’t really care when they see people gossiping at me here and there.

However, Katarina respected her own way.

“thank you.”

Aina, who had opened her eyes slightly, as if she had something she wanted to say earlier, also opened her mouth.

“… If you want to use a weapon, you need to have a minimum understanding and practice. I understand what the intention was, but I just couldn’t let it go.”

“What is it, I don’t think I will ever use it again.”

“Then wait for the good luck for the rest of your life and make a fuss.”

It was Aina who shot coldly, but there was no hostility in her tone.

I usually talk like that.

Compared to the time when I was treated with indifference, I was a yangban.

“Good work. It was fun.”

Chun Hyun-woo, who left only a brief impression, threw a drink can at me.

… It’s barley tea flavored cola.

I don’t like it very much.

However, I didn’t hate it so much that I refused to give it away for free, so I poured it into my mouth at once.

“What, you seem to like MacX.”

“Give it, so you drink it. Don’t drink with my money.”

“Is that so? Well, I don’t like it that much either.”

It wasn’t funny.

Why do you want to give something you don’t even drink to others?

Normally, I would have listened to it over and over, but now I was tired and didn’t want to leave the story behind.

We should just talk in moderation and then go to the dormitory and rest.
