Parallel World Academy

Episode 40 Midterm exam public tournament.(8)

* * *

Now, the world’s holographic city in this training room is also familiar.

It’s a scene I see every day for over a week, so I couldn’t help but get used to it.

It is not just familiar with the exterior of this city.

He was well aware of what was in a place, what the buildings were for, and how the city changed over time.

The reason I am memorizing even such miscellaneous things is not because of my memory.

It was an ugly struggle to somehow defeat the S-Class cadets.

Looking back, it doesn’t look ugly.

Thanks to that, I was able to achieve a decent result, the winner’s group final.

I was satisfied with my grades and had the option of resigning in front of my eyes, but my mind changed a little when I entered this training room exam hall.

It started to feel like I wanted to step on the stage in the finals.

I wouldn’t deny that Katarina’s support had an impact on that change.

Anyway, I desperately rolled a bad head.

How do I win against Olivia?

To be honest, most methods didn’t seem to work.

My thinking skills are not very suitable for battle, and when I use the city objects, she seems to know most of the facilities of this holographic city.

Consider using a drawbridge to avoid a shadow tsunami.

To be honest, it was quite a shocking scene for me as well.

Because it was something I didn’t expect at all.

Will the tricks I’ve used so far work for someone who’s savvy about objects in this city?

That’s unlikely.

Let’s think about it.

What the hell should I do…

No, why didn’t I think of this way?

The premise of preventing Olivia’s use of thought was wrong from the beginning.

Even Aina couldn’t stop Olivia in the first place, so it’s absurd that I can stop her.

I’d rather let Olivia use her thinking power.

So what are you going to do?

How can I use those summons in reverse?

This plan, in a way that no one else could have dreamed of.

take a good look these cubs

Because I will win the war, not the battle.

First, before heading downtown, you’ll need to tear off the frames of all the manhole covers and drains you see along the way.

Why are you doing that?

You’ll find out if you watch closely.

Operation name, water park.

start.

When I finished work and arrived in the heart of the city, Olivia was waiting for me, yawning.

I wondered if the person with that calm face was the same person as Olivia, who showed quick movements during the Aina battle.

Shouldn’t it be the appearance of drinking from the neighborhood rather than standing up straight?

“hi?”

“You said hello before.”

It was as if I had already won the way he said hello again calmly.

Will I be able to say hello again after time passes?

“That was then, and now that we’ve met again, we’re saying hello.”

“okay? Then let’s shake hands.”

“… Do you know what it means to have physical contact with me?”

“Doesn’t it matter?”

Olivia’s eyes narrowed.

Sharp eyes, as if asking what the plan was.

you’ll never know

I’m sure no one would expect it.

“Okay, let’s shake hands.”

Saying so, she held out her hand.

Could it be that I have no boundaries?

Of course, there are boundaries.

If it’s Olivia, she has the personality to raise her hand and attack me with the other arm.

Preparations for it have already been made.

I was wearing some sort of chainmail, woven from high-strength yarn, under my cadet uniform.

So, you can rest assured.

Maybe.

Without hesitation, I went ahead and took her hand.

As soon as I grabbed her hand, I felt energy being sucked out of my body.

This is a lot worse than I thought.

“How are you going to win while reacting so sensitively with just one step?”

“My goal is level two.”

Surprisingly, she didn’t give up.

So what?

Of course, I’ll have to hit the front.

As soon as I finished speaking, I kicked her shin hard.

With this, Olivia’s thought power trigger condition, two physical contact was completed.

Now it’s your turn to pant.

Cracks were popping up here and there, signaling that the second stage of the curse had begun.

Huge beetles crawled out and tapped their antennae to find me.

An ordinary person would scream and die just looking at those wriggling antennae, but I am a person with very high insect tolerance.

These worms don’t affect me at all.

That doesn’t mean I want to pet those bugs or anything like that.

If you bite that chin, your finger would fly off, who would do that?

I used grappling to get away from the bug as quickly as I could.

Of course, if you run away, warnings will accumulate and you will be disqualified, but you don’t need to worry about disqualification and defeat in this match against Olivia.

This is because there is one blind spot in this training room system.

That is, if there is only ‘acts that count as combat’, there is no warning.

In fact, what is even called a blind spot is, in fact, this system is a rule made for a fair match.

If the battle with the summons is not considered a battle, of course, the battle will be too advantageous for the Awakened who uses the summons, isn’t it?

So, that rule is close to a fair rule to avoid getting warnings even in battles with pets.

However, this can be used as a blind spot.

Even if you almost escape throughout the battle, you can avoid the warning penalty if you attack only a few summons in the middle.

Of course, in order not to be penalized, I also did not forget to chop up a few beetles while escaping.

Well, the plan is progressing step by step.

Hundreds of beetles had already fallen into the manholes and drains, and the burrows that had apparently been exposed at the bottom were now filled with shimmering water.

“Can’t you just surrender? I want to play.”

“Yeah, no.”

I won, so why surrender?

The time has come for acid lizards to appear.

Waiting for the appearance of the acid lizard vaguely, around the city once.

It was seen that the number of worms had significantly decreased.

Now it seems it’s time for a lizard to emerge.

My expectations were exactly right.

From the cracks visible in the distance and the additional cracks created, cute gecko lizards started pouring out in lumps.

The lizards were moving towards me with slow gestures.

Yes, please follow me.

“Can I just keep running?”

Suddenly, Olivia was chasing me closely.

No, jumping over grappling and catching up.

Is that a real person?

Still, I hope I won’t catch up.

I’m flying on a thread

That dream has become a reality.

Olivia didn’t catch up with me.

The method she chose was to cut the thread I was currently using.

Olivia picked up the carcasses of beetles lying on the street, and ripped their jaws off.

And then, that sharp blade-like jaw, I started throwing it towards the thread I was hanging on.

At first, I thought that no matter how sharp the beetle’s jaw was.

However, the beetle’s jaw was much sharper than I thought.

To my surprise, those jaws were able to cut my thread.

what kind of meme

The thread holding me back broke, so I’m in freefall right now to the ground.

A defeat due to a fall.

That is absolutely unacceptable!

You have to sacrifice one arm to stop it.

I straightened out a new thread and hung it over the overhang of another building.

The force created by gravity is instantly carried on my right shoulder.

This is 100% dislocation.

I don’t know if I can be good at grappling with only one arm.

Still, I’ll have to give it a try.

Well, that’s possible.

by the way… It is possible, but the appearance is quite disturbing.

I feel like I’m staggering because I can’t get my balance right, and I feel like I’m slowing down.

Olivia’s curse was also overlapped with it, so it could be said that my condition was the worst.

At this rate, it seemed that Olivia would catch up with him sooner or later.

Now that Olivia has been chasing me down to my chin, even in a very urgent situation, I never forgot to check the hole in the floor frequently.

It was important for Olivia to run away, but the most important thing was the success of the plan.

The funny thing is, there was no real basis for that prioritization.

It was simply because of the vague belief that even if Olivia approached me, I wouldn’t be killed in a single blow.

The only reason, though, is that if it were the chain mail under the current cadet uniform, it would be able to withstand a few units, a reason that originated from shallow logic.

In any case, fortunately, my plan has almost reached the stage of success.

Evidence of this is that the sputum is slowly flowing backwards from the water chatter and manhole.

I can stop now.

I struggled to climb to the roof of the building with unstable grappling, shouting at Olivia looking up at me from under the road.

“Hey! Olivia! Don’t you feel something strange?”

“Huh, what?”

“Why do you think there is a water surface on the road?”

“Sleep?”

“It’s true that it’s raining a lot, but it’s not raining enough to submerge the city. Why is the road getting watery?”

Because, the manhole I opened and the beetles that fell into the drain blocked the sewer sluice gate.

“Is that important?”

“Don’t think it’s important.”

Still haven’t noticed?

I’m disappointed.

Don’t you just notice that it’s strange?

It used to be that the water was dripping in the water chatter hole, but now the water is gurgling and flowing backwards?

Slowly the acid lizards must have arrived there too.

“I am counting from now on.”

“… What did you do.”

“One, two, three!”

As my countdown was over, green, gray and ocher-colored water began to cascade from all the fire hydrants, manholes and drains in the city.

What I was aiming for is this

If the beetles fall into drains and manholes, they will naturally float to the sewage treatment plant underground.

One or two would be no problem, but if hundreds of giant beetles reach the sluice gate of a sewage treatment facility at once, of course the sluice gate will be blocked by the beetles.

However, the plan does not end there.

When the acid lizards that fell together in the drain reach the sluice gate, the soft skin of the lizard is torn apart by the sharp jaws of the beetle.

From the torn wound, the lizard’s acidic bodily fluid will flow out, and the acidic fluid will mix with the sewage saliva, creating a strong acidic solution.

Where will all these acid solutions go?

Of course, it will melt the clogged sluice gates and sewers, and it will flow with great force.

And, it is unlikely that the sewer system will be able to accommodate the sudden exponential increase in water supply.

‘Cause it’s raining

Then, the remaining water that cannot be accommodated in the sewer goes to drains, fire hydrants, and manholes that can naturally escape.

The acidic solution spurted out like an explosion, of course, attacked the citizens of the street.

Naturally, the owner of the acid solution is Oliviani, who is judged to have harmed the citizens.

[Olivia Teixeira. The cumulative number of warnings has exceeded the upper limit. It is disqualification.]

[Winner, Park Seong-jin. The fourth test is over.]

This is the K ­strategy.

You foolish people of this world.

I shouted at the camera recording this scene.

“Waterpark! Open! It’s been Park Seong-jin’s trick show so far.”

On this day, even though my match was not a broadcast match, it ranked first in real-time search terms on most portal sites.
