Episode 31 Midterm exam preparation period.(4)

* * *

There is only one week left until the midterm exam public tournament.

As the midterm exams were approaching, Vincent’s training intensity grew stronger and stronger.

As proof of that, all the other S-class cadets next to me can see all of them exhausted under Vincent’s intensive training.

And, I am going to be like that now.

Why am I not worn out yet?

All the other guys have finished training, and me and Chun Hyun-woo haven’t done it yet.

“Well, the last one is you. Hyeon-Woo Cheon, Seong-Jin Park. Go in.”

“”yes.””

[User recognized. You are synchronizing your thinking. please wait for a moment.]

[Users Hyeon-Woo Cheon and Seong-Jin Park have been synchronized. Please set up training.]

“Well, everyone knows the training setup, right? City streets, rain, nights, even a few citizens.”

All training so far has been conducted in this setting.

There is a high probability that the midterm exam will go like this.

It must be a well-known fact that I have said many times that this setting is really annoying, but it is a setting that cannot but be emphasized once again.

The most annoying reason was the setting of ‘a few citizens’.

If those damn citizens gave a nice run away, the training could actually be conducted without any problems, but the moment some curious citizens came closer to watch and film the battle and got involved in the battle, the battle could be said to be ruined. it was

If you inflict harm on citizens, points are deducted as a rule, and the moment more than a certain number of citizens suffer damage, you are forcibly defeated in battle.

Of course, there were some people who took advantage of this point to take citizens as shields or hostages, but of course, this was also a reason for deduction of points.

This is because it violates the spirit of Trinity Academy, which nurtures heroes who should be exemplary for all.

In fact, it was common for guys who used these tactics to become villains later, so there was a reason why Trinity Academy didn’t recommend it.

Nevertheless, there were many people who did not give up on this strategy because it was clear that there were factors that could easily annoy the opponent.

It’s a strategy I’ve used a few times.

[The training settings have been completed.]

“Is everyone ready?”

“yes.”

“I’m done, too.”

[Countdown, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0, training has started.]

Buildings composed of holograms began to rise from the floor, and the buildings soon created a dense forest of buildings.

Now they can’t see each other at all.

All you see is buildings and sparsely visible people.

This does not mean that the training ground is quiet.

The sound of heavy rain filled the training ground.

In the past, there have been quite a few ways to detect enemies using vibrations coming from the thread, but in an environment with such strong rain, it is difficult to accurately determine whether the vibrations coming from the thread are due to the rain or human movement. The method of searching for the enemy was quickly abandoned.

Instead, these settings did not just provide an unfavorable environment for me.

It made three-dimensional maneuvering using a thread much easier.

I grappled with a single string made by weaving several strands of thin but high elasticity and strength yarn, and quickly headed towards the center of the city while navigating between the buildings.

Seeing that, some citizens started chasing after me in response to being curious.

My movement speed wasn’t that slow, so I managed to shake off the citizens, but if it was even a little slower, the citizens would have caught up.

Good luck.

Even though he came to the center of the city, Chun Hyeon-woo was still nowhere to be seen.

Well, my movement is much faster than walking, so it was natural.

… Thinking about it, I thought that it would not be a bad idea to visit Chun Hyeon-woo here first.

This rainy climate gave Chun Hyeon-woo an overwhelming advantage, so I thought I should take the lead.

Why does the rain make Chun Hyun-woo an advantage?

As you know, Hyeonu Chun’s second ability, Ruler of Blood, is the ability to manipulate blood as he wants.

And, blood and water are both fluids.

In other words, blood can also travel through water.

It is said that the blood manipulated by Chun Hyeon-woo can be predicted, but it is almost impossible to predict where the blood moving from the rainwater flowing on the floor will go.

… It’s quite annoying.

Because I don’t know where the blood flowing from the rainwater might attack me, it’s extremely rare to do shadowboxing.

Therefore, I needed to find Hyeonu Chun as quickly as possible.

I guess I’ll have to move to the side where Chun Hyeon-woo was standing in the first place.

About a minute after moving.

As usual, I could find Chun Hyeon-woo walking with a relaxed expression.

Judging from the fact that he didn’t come out with his usual scythe today, he seems to have started training with the same thoughts as me.

Rather than relying on weapons, I thought I would train my thinking skills a little more.

Well, whatever you think, it’s your own mind.

There’s nothing particularly bad about relying on weapons.

It’s rather foolish not to use a good weapon.

However, unlike the growing ideological power, weapons do not grow, so it is common for most people to choose the option of increasing their ideological power.

Of course, it would be the right decision to use if you have some really ridiculously good gear, or an extremely rare, artifact-like item like growing gear, but Hyeonu Chun and I didn’t.

Anyway, I immediately shot the thread at Cheon Hyun-woo, and several thin threads were lodged in Cheon’s body.

In the past, such an attack would not have been possible, but thanks to the training in the past, I was able to make a thread with a fairly strong strength, so it became possible to cut soft objects or insert a thread into an object.

“Isn’t it surprising that you tried to attack first?”

“… !”

Naturally, I thought that Chun Hyeon-woo would cut the thread stuck in his body.

It’s not about extracting it.

However, Chun Hyeon-woo quickly pulled out the thread stuck in his body.

The thread that had dug into his body was bent like a fishing hook, so if he pulled the thread out, he would have suffered a huge laceration (?), but Chun Hyeon-woo pulled it out casually.

This judgment was absolutely right.

After all, is he the main character of the original?

No matter how strong it was, it would not have been impossible to cut the thread at all, but it was definitely a good decision to ‘pull out’ the thread.

You can attack with the blood that flows from the torn wound.

It was my mistake.

Chun Hyeon-woo, who attacks using blood, largely forgot that it was more important to inflict internal injuries rather than inflict external damage.

And, that oblivion soon led to regret.

The blood that flowed from the wound immediately turned into a blood sword and flew towards me.

I had no choice but to widen the distance to a place that Chun Hyeon-woo’s Blood Ruler’s range could not reach with grappling.

Cheon Hyeon-woo’s torn wounds are by no means light, and even if he transfuses the escaped blood with his deadly power, he will be able to seize victory with excessive bleeding after a while.

But then, it goes against the purpose of this training to ‘train your thinking’.

Even if the one who survives one way or another is eventually strong, there will be a limit to surviving this kind of fluke.

The Somnium Liberator, which I will face in the future, is by no means a sloppy organization.

So, in the end, I had to go back into Chun Hyeon-woo’s range and fight.

No, there was no need for that.

Chun Hyeon-woo was riding a blood sword and was coming towards me.

I tried to block Cheon Hyun-woo’s approach by shooting the threads right away, but Cheon Hyun-woo was getting closer to me, avoiding my threads like a skillful surfer, riding a blood sword.

While I was thinking about what to do, I came up with a trick.

There are no death ring options in this combat environment, but ring out wins do exist.

When you are put into the field as a hero, it is the same principle as deviating from a mission is considered a mission failure or something.

Without the death ring, the condition of ring out is virtually nonexistent, and it is just a condition that is wide enough, but that does not mean that the rule disappears.

So, in this training, I decided to induce the ring out.

First of all, to do that, you’ll have to lure them away as quickly as possible with grappling.

If you openly move towards the end of the ring, there’s a good chance you’ll notice that I’m leading the ring out.

Fortunately, Chun Hyeon-woo didn’t seem to notice my thoughts yet, and he could only see him trying to get as close to me as possible by increasing his moving speed.

Looks like things are going as planned…

When I turned my head forward again after checking the figure of Hyeonu Chun following me, I realized that my plan had been seriously messed up.

A sphere made of blood came up from a hole on the floor and appeared right in front of me.

“I didn’t just move. It moved and carried the blood along with it along the underground sewer.”

At the end of those words, the spheres of blood become thousands of sharp shards scattered all over the place.

As soon as I saw the sphere, I tried to protect myself with a veil woven with thread, but dozens of blood shards crawled into my body.

At this rate, it was clear that my side, who had holes all over my body, would have no choice but to be defeated by bleeding.

For a while, I thought that I could just use Bleeding Death to win comfortably, but now that method doesn’t work either.

I can’t help it.

Here’s the winning number.

I shot out the longest strand of thread, hung it on the furthest building, contracted the thread at the fastest rate, and at the same time shot a thread in the opposite direction, Chun Hyeon-woo, and hung the thread on the bridge.

As a result, now me and Chun Hyun-woo are both flying out of the ring with great speed.

If this force is applied, even if the thread is cut, it will eventually fly in the same direction as me.

Chun Hyun-woo, who knew this, didn’t even bother to cut the thread.

I was flying out of the ring first anyway, so he knew I was going to be out first.

But, I can’t leave it like that, can I?

I immediately fired another thread and tried grappling again.

A weakened thread could not withstand this powerful kinetic energy exerted on my body, so I had to use a thick cord made of almost all the thread that could be fired.

Fortunately, the rope at the end of the building did not break.

The problem was that all the force from the sudden braking was applied to my arm, so I had to suffer a broken arm.

No, I could see the arm detaching from the body.

Still, the brake itself was definitely on.

My body started circular motion in an arc, and I could feel the speed gradually decrease.

Now there is only one thing I have to do.

It uses the strong centrifugal force obtained through circular motion.

With one arm holding the thread hanging from Chun Hyun-woo’s ankle, I threw the thread out of the ring with all my might.

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

“It’s something I’ll never do again. f*ck.”
