[Era of Romance, May 187 Errata]

To reflect the midterm results and maintain game balance, the points and abilities of the following units have been changed. – See Appendix 1.

The following spells have been added to the spell list. – See Appendix 2.

A pass system has been added. At the end of the first and second rounds, both players compare the number of surviving units, and the side with fewer units receives a pass equal to the difference. By consuming a pass ticket, you can pass the turn to the opponent without giving the unit a turn.

Crews can no longer contain more than 3 units of the same type. Units described as one unit in the album are the same unit even if they have different upgrades or keywords.

Developer notes:

Recently, there have been several reported cases of intentionally failing exams for the sake of point efficiency in the romantic era. Please be advised that the Student Council does not encourage this, and that Romantic Era is operated for the purpose of harmoniously resolving conflicts between dormitories and creating a healthy campus atmosphere.

To prevent such unfortunate events, the value of learning was indirectly increased by adding 0 mana spells and enhanced basic spells. Please note that if test abandonment continues after this errata, additional rule revisions may be made.

Recently, it has become a problem to play by deploying a large number of low-cost units to exchange turns with the opponent, and then when all of the opponent’s units are exhausted, then activating one’s core units to create a combo that cannot be dealt with. Although it is a very emergent play, there were opinions that it was too unpleasant for the opponent, and we decided to add a passing system to prevent abuse.

Additionally, the strategy of filling the crew with 0th or 1st year students and then occupying only the victory point area was found to be more practical than expected. This is a very boring and unpleasant strategy for opponents, so the number of units has been limited. In the future, we may limit the number of units deployed for problematic units instead of modifying their points.

The notice board in front of the student center was crowded.

“No! The points of the swordsmanship club have risen!”

“It’s only been two months since the game came out, but it moves very quickly.”

“That’s right. Both the Dormitory Cup winning crew and the runner-up crew were systematically nerfed.”

“But they weren’t a normal crew. You can’t do it.”

“Ukkisqueak!”

A monkey sound that silences the loud students.

With Goofy the monkey on his bald head, the black swan champion appeared.

People were nervous. A blatant sniping patch against Graven.

The special team that had worked so hard to develop was blocked even though they only came in second place, and attempts to lower learning by throwing tests were immediately sanctioned.

However, contrary to people’s expectations, Graven smiled after reading the entire notice.

“Really, this is not a game that can be bypassed with this level of trickery.”

“It’s a shame, Graven… If I had increased my learning, I would have been able to use enhanced magic bullets or 0 mana spells… ”

“It doesn’t matter. Because I succeeded in reducing the points of my model.”

“Still, it might not get better.”

“Then just use another model.”

Graven shrugged his shoulders and immediately took the appendices and began checking the detailed patch details.

The students, inspired by the sight, headed to the second floor of the student center.

To purchase the models that were upgraded in this balance patch.

————————————————– ————————–

“Are you satisfied with this?”

“… It would be good if you use a tone that suits the student’s duties, Mr. Coleman.”

Saraljit’s grunting. But I just ignored it.

Because I have achieved enough results to be able to straighten my shoulders and turn away in front of four professors.

The balance patch was successful.

The value of learning has now risen to almost the same level as magical power, and it is said that the attendance rate for theory classes has recovered, or rather has improved.

Also, this errata had a side effect.

The Black Swan, which relies on magic power and multiple attributes, received an indirect nerf, and the Blue Dragon, which focuses on learning and basic spells, received a buff.

In fact, the Black Swan was the strongest among the five factions, so it needed to be nerfed, but the Blue Dragon maintained an acceptable performance, so there was no need to upgrade it.

But, since the Romantic Era participant group won the commotion that took place in Cheongryong, it would be okay to throw a carrot like this to encourage them.

“So.”

Professor Jelena Jorowitz asked, leaning back in her chair.

“He said he had a special request.”

I swallowed my saliva once and began to explain the plan the chairman had come up with.

“The student council is now trying to commercialize the Romantic Age and sell it outside of school.

We are currently in a cooperative relationship with Priestley Wonders.

However, if professors interfere with these rules in detail, it will be difficult to gain the trust of Priestley.”

“Huh!”

Saraljit snorts.

“So, since it will interfere with our ability to make money, you are telling us not to interfere no matter what happens in the future?

The romantic era exists for the academy, not the academy for the romantic era!”

“And Mr. Coleman, haven’t you thought about it the other way around?

The fact that the marketability of the Romantic Era is further increased because of the certification process for our professors?”

When even Professor Ariadne joined in the counterargument, I took a step back.

“We know that too. but… The Age of Romance, which will now clearly be a commercial work, has shown good will in revising the rules for the Academy, so I would be grateful if professors would also show good will… ”

“What kind of good intentions are you talking about?”

Abarion’s question.

I waited for this moment.

I unzipped my back, took out the folder I had hidden, and held it in.

A consent form for modeling the Romantic Era signed by numerous students.

“It would be great if you could let professors release their models.”

The four professors quickly exchanged glances.

“We plan to make it a powerful model with more than 30 points. First, we will start with the professors who also serve as judges, and if the opportunity arises, we will also give opportunities to other professors… ”

“Wait a minute.”

Yelena raised her hand and asked a question.

“Students’ abilities are evaluated by this panel of judges.

So, who evaluates the abilities of professors who are also judges?”

“Wouldn’t it be okay if we discuss it?

For example, the remaining three people decide the other person’s abilities.”

“No, it won’t work.”

Abarion shook his head.

“Then there is a very high possibility that the competitive spirit between us will intervene.”

hmm. Just be honest and confess that you are hated by the other three professors.

Meanwhile, White Yang and Red Horse nodded their heads calmly.

“No matter how it is reviewed, I am in favor.

If professors become models, I think they will be able to approach students in a friendlier way.”

“Well, I agree too. There’s nothing big to do anyway.”

This development was expected to some extent. There is no way professors would ask to examine themselves.

Now it’s time to unfold the second part of the plan.

“Then, how about surveying the students you teach and then collecting it from the student council?”

“To students?”

“Hmm. Wouldn’t the students who took the class know best?

or not… Is there a reason why you don’t want to do that?”

In one word, huh?

Abarion and Saraljit looked at each other and then spoke in unison.

“Is that possible?”

“Then, after conducting a survey, we will collect and model it as soon as possible.”

————————————————– ——-

Blue Dragon Housemaster Abarion – Academy, Blue Dragon, Dark Elf, Professor, Abarion, Sun, Moon, Grass

Single model unit – 37 points

Black Swan Housemaster Saraljit – Academy, Black Swan, Celestial Shrine, Pureblood Beastman, Snake, Professor, Saraljit, Fire, Grass, Poison

Single model unit – 34 points

“This is ridiculous! How can I be 3 points lower than Professor Abarion!”

“Hmm… ”

“Yes! you! Let me tell you!”

“Well… I do not know… ”

Required subject for first year students. Full magic basics.

Professor Saraljit was already spending half of his lecture time raving about selecting his ability level.

From what I heard from senior Graven, it seems like this was also the case during third-year classes.

No, where is the person who suggested creating an atmosphere for academic study?

Well, in fact, the detailed stats and abilities were created based on a survey of students, but since the point measurement is in the hands of our student council, we ranked Avarion a little higher and Saraljit a little cheaper.

It is an indirect balance patch that slightly reverts the Black Swan nerf and the Blue Dragon buff, and kills two birds with one stone by punishing Professor Saraljit who has been harassing us.

Looking at Professor Saraljit’s reaction, it seems to be effective.

“Do you think I am less skilled than Professor Abarion?”

“Uh, um, not like that… ”

“I’ll show you my skills! See clearly! Fire causes destruction and harm! Grass is a detour from nature! The two combined, poison!

This is the ultimate goal of miasma magic: intangible! No color, no scent, no shape!”

Wait a minute, professor. I beg your pardon?

Saraljit shouted and opened his mouth.

As explained as colorless, odorless, and intangible, nothing changed.

“You are all addicted! Want the antidote-”

“The professor is crazy!”

“Ugh!”

The classroom immediately became chaos with students running out.

Of course, I also covered my nose and mouth and quickly ran out.

“Wait! Why are you running away! You won’t die because it’s an academy!”

However, no student returned, and 30 minutes later, Professor Saraljit was called to the dean’s office.

Up to this point, it would have been my victory. Although I was a little taken aback by the unimaginable sudden move, it was true that I dealt a blow to Saraljit, who was blatantly only focusing on his own picks.

And three days later, in the basic magic class taught by Abarion-

“ character. Who can tell me about the representative advanced spells of sun magic?

Right, Mr. Coleman?”

“Ah, yes. Powerful sun magic can control your opponent’s mind.

This is because of the sun’s attributes of command, superiority, and truth.”

“Very accurate!”

Abarion made me stand in front of the students and started praising me loudly.

A recommendation that the romantic era is helpful in studying magic theory, and a lament that it is a pity that Mr. Coleman is a black swan and not a blue dragon.

uh… It’s a bit frustrating, but…

However, when I returned to the full magic basics class four days later, something beyond my imagination happened.

While everyone was nervous about what the idiot would do this time, Baekyang’s 5th grade teaching assistant quickly came in and cleared his throat.

“Uh. I’m sorry to my classmates, but Professor Saraljit cannot come today.

no… I don’t think you’ll be able to come this semester… ”

“No, why?”

Students with wide eyes. The teaching assistant looked carefully and spoke carefully.

“To become stronger, he went on a warrior training trip to the Elven Forest… ”

I opened my mouth wide.

No, what kind of snowball is this…

“Then what about class?”

Hwayoung’s question. But there was no need to even wait for an answer.

A young woman opened the door and came in as if she had been waiting.

Short black hair shaved like a man.

In contrast, the extremely voluptuous breasts and pelvis.

Long, slender legs and arms.

She took out the chalk and wrote her name in nice cursive on the blackboard.

Petra Lin.

“I am Petra Lin, the temporary housemaster of the Black Swan and instructor who will teach the basics of grass magic. Thank you very much.”

The applause of excited female students.

On the other hand, male students are drooling with their mouths open.

I looked at her for a while, then finally clapped my hands.
