Chapter Index

    The atmosphere between those two was unusual.

    I had no intention of following these two people.

    I couldn’t bear to think that the other person was Choi Hana.

    So, I stood outside of Rain Weapons and waited for the two men.

    I secretly watched everything, even watching movies and eating.

    “Huh…”

    Pain that An Yu-min had never experienced in his life came flooding back to him again.

    The tears didn’t stop.

    ‘okay. It can’t be like that, right? ‘You said you liked me… right?’

    It was like that. I didn’t know that they might not be dating yet.

    We don’t really hold hands.

    It didn’t seem like they spent much time together after eating.

    “……”

    But the more he denied reality, the more miserable he became.

    The movie the two watched was a romance movie.

    And the place where we had lunch together was a restaurant full of young college couples.

    It was clearly a date no matter who saw it.

    Even if you’re not dating yet.

    It’s only a matter of time before two people who hang out so often end up dating.

    Even Song Si-ah goes as far as to say that the relationship between those two people is the same.

    “No!!!”

    I screamed like I was screaming.

    I couldn’t give up on Lee Jun-woo yet.

    The warmth from when he only looked at himself remains intact.

    ‘okay. Whatever it takes. Even if the two of you are dating…’

    Just take it.

    That’s what the relationship between men and women is like in the first place.

    Just as Choi Hana is trying to take Lee Jun-woo away from who she is now.

    Because Lee Jun-woo was originally his own.

    Just bring her back to your side.

    ‘I suit Lee Jun-woo better than Choi Hana!’

    Scarlett, vice president of the student council.

    Choi Hana is the employee of that rich family.

    In short, a woman who does chores for a rich family.

    However, he is different.

    Even though my mother’s honor has been tarnished.

    20 years ago, a great hero of the dark era when many awakened people were dying.

    He is one of the few hunters to have the Medal of Honor.

    I was different from someone like Hana Choi from birth.

    And An Yu-min followed in his mother’s footsteps.

    Because he was the person who would become the new hero.

    ‘Lee Jun-woo is an awakened person. And a fully licensed hunter.’

    The same applies to the Hunter world.

    Although family background has become very important these days.

    If you truly have overwhelming strength.

    This is an era where one can still have power with that power alone.

    ‘But Lee Jun-woo is not like that.’

    I was surprised when Lee Jun-woo arrested the Dark Snake.

    And Song Xia, who competed with him in the class assignment evaluation not long ago, also said:

    – He’s still just an incompetent person. Junwoo Lee.

    Because he has already become famous through Aegis activities.

    I will become stronger in the future.

    Due to the difference in social status and skills.

    All you have to do is make it so that Lee Jun-woo can never reject you.

    ‘To do that. ‘Starting Hell Week next week.’

    An Yu-min was high class.

    All you have to do is show a superior difference that cannot be compared to the middle class.

    I will never let things go well with that Choi Hana.

    An Yu-min made a cold decision.

    ***

    It’s a new week.

    As it was an academy, the main lectures were held in the affiliated faculty building.

    “Hmm. Geomro is really neat. The damage is still very lacking.”

    Shuuk-

    I swung the paladin sword once again.

    Instructor Lee Su-yeon lightly blocked the sword with her palm.

    ‘What a monster.’

    Taang-

    And when I swung my hand blade, my sword bounced back.

    “Still, I think my physical ability is much better than what was recorded in my graduation grades. You know what the problem is, right?”

    “Yes, instructor.”

    I was receiving direct instruction from instructor Lee Su-yeon.

    Although I expected it to some extent based on the original work.

    Instructor Lee Su-yeon was able to identify all the problems simply by looking at my skills.

    “Still, when I look at your fighting style that I’ve seen so far, I’m happy. Because you are very calm. Rather than making a clumsy quick attack with my current physical ability. It would be nice to land a solid blow.”

    Sooyeon Lee was right.

    ‘If you aim for multiple attacks for no reason, you can only get a counter.’

    In short, it means that you need a big shot.

    Even though it is the power of the goddess’ faithful guardian knight.

    Although there was a skill ‘Divine Strike’ that belonged to that power.

    Skill damage is calculated based on basic status.

    [Status]====================​

    ​​

    [Extended Status]

    * Strength: 20 [Durability 5, Strength 10, Balance 5] ​

    * Speed: 10​ [Main Power 3, Reaction 4, Attack Speed ​​3]

    * Intelligence: 18 [Computation ability 7, Casting speed 8, Spell durability 3]

    * Magic Power: 15 [Mana Efficiency 10, Faith 5]

    * Mental Power: 90

    ================================​​​​​​​​

    Only because the detailed strength and faith stats are this low like now.

    It’s difficult if I encounter a monster with a higher level than me.

    It would definitely be difficult to use a strong sword strike that could end one’s life.

    “But just doing strength training blindly is ineffective. It is difficult to see immediate results by only focusing on religious studies. Instead, there is a way to increase damage with simple training.”

    I listened to those words.

    In the original, it was possible to create or evolve skills through the guidance of an instructor.

    If you are Instructor Sooyeon Lee.

    It will definitely be able to suggest a reliable way to add more damage to my sword strikes.

    “This is a way to add the energy of fire, which is an accessory attribute, to your sword strike. Well, actually, anyone can think of a method up to this point…”

    And from the words that followed, I got a hint of a new skill.

    “Light attribute and fire attribute are not compatible, but they are not the same attribute either. That’s why you need to maintain balance in your body so that its different attributes can blend well.”

    In other words, body balance is important to withstand the repulsive force of mana that occurs within the body.

    I looked at the extended stats in the status window.

    ================================​​​​​​​​

    * Strength: 20 [Durability 5, Strength 10, Balance 5] ​

    ================================​​​​​​​​

    ‘That’s why extended stats are a cheat.’

    In short, in order to quickly complete new skill evolution.

    This means that in the future, it is better to achieve balance first when it comes to strength.

    “And since I am not a wizard, there is no need to improve the perfection of fire spells. What’s important is how much of that flame energy you can keep putting into your sword.”

    ================================​​​​​​​​

    * Intelligence: 18 [Computation ability 7, Casting speed 8, Spell durability 3]

    ================================​​​​​​​​

    Also, when it comes to intelligence, it means that it is better to invest quickly in spell persistence.

    Instructor Sooyeon Lee showed me the process in person.

    She lightly held the wooden sword in her hand.

    “As much as possible, prevent light attribute divine power from opposing fire mana. Keep breathing as you are now. Think about the balance of your body.”

    Soon, light green mana and red mana naturally enveloped her body.

    Ssss-

    And the energy of the two attributes began to burn through the wooden sword.

    You can definitely evolve your skills by taking stats and repeating training.

    [Understanding of the skill Holy Strike (lv.2) is increasing.]

    This is how you can see firsthand the balance of breathing and mana fusion that instructor Lee Su-yeon has learned.

    It was a completely different experience.

    ‘Skill acquisition speed becomes faster.’

    I did not forget instructor Lee Su-yeon’s teachings and engraved them in my eyes.

    And after a while.

    I recreated the process myself.

    “What is it? Are you already imitating my breathing and movements?”

    Instructor Lee Su-yeon said as if she was embarrassed.

    “Nonsense! How can I just see it once?”

    It seems that the process was not as easy as I thought.

    But I answered calmly.

    “It just works if you follow along diligently.”

    “…… I see.”

    In fact, I saw the effect of the power.

    Both the first and second awakenings are powers related to mirrors.

    So, even though it is difficult to use your body to imitate because of the lack of stats right now.

    It wasn’t difficult to imitate that breathing and mana flow.

    As if I had become a mirror of myself.

    I was able to remember Lee Su-yeon’s movements exactly in my mind.

    ‘I guess it’s the throne of the shadow mirror. The impact of that secondary power will be greater.’

    Of course, instructor Lee Soo-yeon, who did not know the reason, made a dumbfounded expression.

    And in the afternoon, it was public lectures.

    I walked around campus for a while.

    Theia Academy’s central square.

    Because the site was so large, it was created like a park.

    I stopped for a moment in front of a huge statue.

    And I read the accompanying explanation.

    ‘It’s Archmage Letisane.’

    Those dark times 20 years ago.

    The world was in chaos with the appearance of numerous high-level gates and villains.

    And the great hero who played the greatest role in that era.

    He is the Archmage Letisane.

    However, despite its fame, little is known about Letisane’s true identity.

    Some say that he is a descendant of a certain European royal family.

    There was also talk that he was a sub-racial wizard whose identity was hidden.

    The important thing is that Letisane is a very big deal even in the original Gray City of Full Moon.

    I stared at the statue of the wizard wearing that robe.

    An orb in the shape of a magatama is thrown into the air and a spell is cast.

    Letisane was also famous for possessing three types of legendary weapons called sacred weapons.

    ‘No matter which side, they want to find that treasure.’

    Perhaps the truth about Theia Academy.

    It may have something to do with the three sacred treasures.

    However, that item never appeared in the original work.

    Rather, I had to think about the immediate future.

    ‘Letisane’s Ark. That’s more of a problem.’

    Theia Academy is protected by a special magic system that Letisane established the concept.

    The name of that system is Letisane’s Ark.

    To put it simply, the Ark of Letisane applies to all cadets.

    So, the system called the ark.

    Protect cadets from anything hostile.

    But that will always be a story of the past.

    This week is Hell Week.

    The villains who hacked Letisane’s Ark invade Theia.

    The most difficult quest in Chapter 1 of the original work.

    ‘So you have to evolve your skills before Hell Week.’

    No matter how much prior information you know, the level is different from the last Dark Snake.

    As expected, I thought it was a good thing I entered instructor Lee Su-yeon’s department.

    I gathered my thoughts and headed to the booth set up in the square.

    “There is a band club busking, so check it out!”

    “New student there! How about learning magic?”

    Like a new semester.

    I saw many seniors encouraging me to join the club.

    The looks in the eyes of current students when they saw the newbie were scary.

    I also had a lot of seniors cling to me. I already had a few clubs in mind, so I quickly got out of there.

    “Huh? Want to see the East?”

    I nodded to what a second-year cadet said.

    ***

    Jeong Si-woo came into a club room and sat down.

    I could feel his seniors glancing at him when they saw his still-boyish attire.

    “I found the correct address. Take a good look and then go back slowly.”

    A female senior wearing glasses smiled kindly and said.

    ‘He is a kind person. No, it’s obvious.’

    The name of this club came to mind again.

    Theia Crime Research Society.

    There were many hero activity clubs in Theia.

    The Crime Research Group was a bit unusual.

    Rather than specifically going around arresting villains.

    Numerous incidents occurring in the hunter world and the underworld.

    It’s a club that analyzes the incident itself and the villain.

    ‘Not bad for me.’

    Actually, I wasn’t very interested in club activities.

    Even as he was passing through the central square, no one bothered to talk to him, seeing him as a gangster.

    However, another senior in this crime club saw him and brought him in, thinking he would be a perfect fit for the club.

    Like a brat, I was inadvertently irritated.

    After seeing that promotional pamphlet, my thoughts completely changed.

    [Theia Crime Institute Spring No. 1 Magazine – Unknown. What is his identity?]

    As the name suggests, it is a criminal association.

    The unidentified villain who turned the world upside down a few years ago.

    It seemed like Unknown was covered in great depth here.

    Unknown seemed to be so popular here that he was called Galju.

    ‘good! I also wanted to have an off-group meeting for the Unknown Fan Club like this.’

    Just the thought of finding someone like him made Jeong Si-woo excited.

    “Are you also interested in Galjoo?”

    “Yes…? yes If it’s Unknown, I too…”

    Unknown is a greater villain than any other villain.

    He was the person I respected the most.

    Shake it off-

    At that time, the door to the East opened. The senior shouted.

    “Uh, newbie smell!! No, a new student has arrived again?”

    And the moment I saw the two people entering at the same time.

    Jeong Si-woo froze in place.

    ‘Why, why, why those two?’

    It was Lee Jun-woo and Song Si-ah.
