BXBX NOVEL Chapter 33: Monster battle test.
The monster is reproduced through simulation magic and scored based on the battle. But what\'s a little different here is that the cadets are given a choice.
“The monster to fight can be freely selected. However, if the monster\'s grade is too low, there may be a penalty for scoring, so keep that in mind.”
Unlike devils, who do not know when and where to encounter, it is common to research dungeons for monsters in advance and prepare thoroughly before entering.
That\'s why they looked at how thoroughly the students prepared for the monster battle exam, and the atmosphere for the exam was more relaxed than devil battle.
“Don’t mind me, go ahead.”
It was completely stiff by one person.
A man standing bluntly with his arms folded. Director Yoon Kang-Hyun was staring at the Fight Hall from the side, and the bodies of the cadets and teachers were completely frozen in his gaze.
Yoon Kang-hyun, director of the institute, was said that he doesn’t show up well unless it is really important. The one who is called Sungjin\'s giant is only coming to see the gold class exam.
That fact alone doubled the pressure of the test, and the pupils\' eyes began to be dizzy.
“Why, why did you suddenly come?”
"I do not know. Ha… … Will it be enough to catch five Goblin Chiefs? I think I need to increase the number… … .”
“I just added a few WereWolf and Blood Wolf… … .”
With the sudden appearance of the school director, the cadets began squeezing their heads on what to do, and some of them reinforced or increased the number of monsters from the original plan.
The difficulty was raised from a mediocre opponent to perform a wonderful activity in front of the head of the academy.
“Ahhhhhh!”
"surrender! surrender!"
However, the scene that actually happened was no different from chaos.
Increasing the monster\'s rating a little or increasing its number does not increase the difficulty a little.
The flow of battle that they had in mind changed from the beginning, and the monsters also instinctively pierce the gap.
Because of this, the cadets who recklessly raised the difficulty level were trampled brutally, and those who fought under calculation to some extent had a difficult battle.
"Sigh… … I expected this… … .”
“Silly guys… … .”
The gold class teachers who looked at it all sighed and shook their heads.
Rather than a hunter who fights splendidly with burning everything, a hunter who fights deliberately without shaking based on the plan.
That was the hunter that the head of the academy was pursuing, and from that point of view, what the cadets are doing right now is a bad move.
“… … .”
In fact, the head of the academy who was looking at the fight frowned very finely, and his hands with folded arms became tighter. He must have been disappointed by the reckless fights the cadets are playing.
When Ahn Soon-ja sighs, who thinks she will be scolded roughly after the exam is over.
"Mrs. Ahn"
Kang Yoo-sik, a silver class cadet who was standing aside, approached. "I have something to say with cadet Lee Byung-ho, is it okay?"
“… … Cadet Lee Byung-ho?”
"Yes. I have something I want to say.”
In Kang Yoo-sik\'s tell, Ahn Soon-ja looked toward the sophomore side and found Lee Byung-ho worried about something and groaning.
Lee Byung-ho also seemed to be thinking about what to do with the sudden appearance of the school director, but it seemed that he had not yet concluded even though his turn was coming.
"Well… … .”
It\'s a performance text, so it wouldn’t matter with the conversation, and the cadets are already talking about what kind of monster to play with, there will be no problem.
Ahn Soon-ja just concluded and nodded.
"good. However, if a buff skill used outside is discovered, you will be disqualified immediately, so keep that in mind.”
"Thank you."
Kang Yoo-sik with his head nodded approached Lee Byung-ho, who was moaning, and touched his shoulder.
"who… … !?”
“Come out for a minute.”
“… … ?”
At Kang Yoo-sik\'s call, Lee Byung-ho, while puzzled, went out smoothly, and the two came out to the side, receiving the attention from the cadets.
"What happen, sir?"
Now, Lee Byung-ho speaks with honorifics naturally. Kang Yoo-sik looked at him with a little smile.
“The weakness you pointed out before. Have you overcome everything?”
“… … .”
At Kang Yoo-sik\'s question, Lee Byung-ho\'s eyes shook, his face turned slightly red, and he answered with a small voice, avoiding his look.
"no… ….”
Even though he pinpointed exactly how to overcome his weaknesses, two weeks later he still couldn\'t overcome them.
Even though Lee Byung-ho was proud of his talents he was so ashamed this time.
"You haven\'t even caught a hint?"
"No. I got caught, but when I think I managed to do it, it feels like something went wrong… … it’s a little vague… ….”
Kang Yoo-sik looked quietly at Lee Byung-ho, who was very downed and raised his hand.
"Look Carefully."
Patsu-tsu-tsu-tsu.
Kang Yoo-sik, who triggered the lightning chain, lowered the power and then wrapped it around his arms.
Then, in an instant, an arm that seemed to be surrounded by lightning was created, and Kang Yoo-sik showed off the look.
“Can you see it around you?”
"What?"
“Around the chain.”
At Kang Yoo-sik\'s question, Lee Byung-ho looked at it with a puzzled expression.
Previously, lightning flashed around the lightning chain with infusing of spell power, but now there was nothing.
‘What the hell are you talking… … ?’
Before, nothing was seen other than lightning, but now he can see a faint flow of power spreading around the lightning chain.
“Think the skill is a bonfire. Burning firewoods called spell power to make a spark. And… … .”
Kang Yoo-sik, who raised his hands, clearly showed the flow of spell power scattering around him.
“The remnants of spell power scatter like smoke.”
A leak of magic that must be prevented to create more powerful power. However, depending on the use, even it can be a weapon.
That was one of the applications of Thunderer that future Lee Byung-ho came up with.
“… … .”
Now, it was a breakthrough method that Kang Yoo-sik taught.
-2nd graders Lee Byung-ho, Kim Jae-chan, Han Lee-su… ….
There was a sound calling Lee Byung-ho from above, and Kang Yoo-sik removed the lightning chain and tapped his shoulder.
“If it goes well, you owe me. right?"
“… … Yes, sir!"
Lee Byung-ho, who nodded, went straight up to the fight hall, and the gaze of the cadets, teachers, and the academy head came to him as they saw him having a conversation with Kang Yoo-sik.
In the midst of the pressure pouring from everywhere, Lee Byung-ho answered with an unshakable expression.
“Class B. Lycanthrope.”
[Confirmed the request. Reproducing the monster ‘Lycanthrope\'.]
It started from making the toes of the monster, which was about 3m above the battlefield, and both cadets and teachers looked surprised when they saw it.
When converting the combat power into class B, it is 8 stages. Unlike the seventh stage, where the gold class might accidentally overlap, this was definitely the area of the diamond class.
But he chose this Lycanthrope. Most of them thought it was a reckless choice because of the awareness of the school director.
[The test begins.]
Only Kang Yoo-sik stared at his back.
Kwarrooong!!!
From the beginning, Lee Byung-ho\'s body, reinforced with Thunderer, rushed in with lightning, and Lycanthrope immediately responded to the blow.
Kaaang!! The spear and nails clashed, and the sound of metal rang out, and the subsequent fire struck with sparks.
Lee Byung-ho is comparable to the Diamond class when it comes to a blow itself. And among B-class monsters, the agility of Lycanthrope was great.
A head-to-head match against an enemy with the same characteristics, not aimed at a counterpart. It was a strength battle aside from the results of the test.
Kuaang!!
Lycanthrope\'s claws struck the ground, and Lee Byung-ho\'s body in front of it disappeared.
And Lycanthrope felt something behind and his eyes shined brilliantly.
It had already realized from the first blow that the reaction immediately after one move was slow, and this attack induced the gap.
Lycanthrope, who perfectly lured the prey, opened his eyes and twisted his body quickly.
Hooong! Lee Byung-ho ducked and avoided and the lightning flashed his hand.
Kwaang!!
“Argghh!”
Lee Byung-ho\'s spear pierced the shoulders of Lycanthrope, and his regeneration skill was canceled as it was burned by lightning.
A counterattack that perfectly deflected the critical blow. Everyone who saw the scene looked surprised.
“How moved like that… … .”
"Nonsense… … .”
Lycanthrope\'s blow that was swung in the middle of the rush.
Everyone thought it was a surprise attack, and Lee Byung-ho was unavoidable while he couldn’t control his body.
But the moment the leg came closer, Lee Byung-ho\'s body evaded faster than when he rushed, and in the blink of an eye, he even counterattacked.
It was a blow that completely overcame the reflexes known as Lee Byung-ho\'s weakness, and the subsequent battle was the same.
Karrooong!
Every time the lightning struck, Lycanthrope\'s body was covered with wounds, and even the knees were pierced, resulting in loss of combat power.
Kooong!
Lycanthrope kneeled with both arms drooping. Lee Byung-ho, who stood across from him, lowered his posture while aiming with the tip of the spear again.
Kwaang!!
Blue lightning passed through the body.
Lycanthrope\'s body with an open chest turned into magic and scattered, and Lee Byung-ho, who unfolded the last blow, touched the floor with a spear.
“Pant… … Pant… …”
He ran out of his mental power to detect the remnants of spell power, and he raised the spirit of the lightning, so there was not a handful of spell power left.
In a situation where it would not be strange to pass out immediately, Lee Byung-ho turned to look at Kang Yoo-sik, who was looking at him.
Kuung!
Then he lowered his head and fell to the floor.
The teachers, who saw the sight, quickly climbed up, and when they checked the condition, they sighed with relief.
“This is a sign of spell power exhaustion!”
“Move him to the nursing room.”
Lee Byung-ho and a teacher headed to the nurse room, and Kang Yoo-sik, who was watching the sight, looked at the notification window that appeared in front of him.
[It satisfies the debt relationship condition.]
[Confirms the registration of the debtor ‘Lee Byung-ho\', and determines the debt grade as Class B.]
‘It gives generously.\'
Although the original relationship was not good, it may be because of the teaching, or because of overcoming a fatal weakness, but Lee\'s debt rating was higher than expected.
When Kang Yoo-sik is satisfied with the sight
-Cadet Kang Yoo-sik in first grade. Please go up to the empty seat.
He was assigned to the place where Lee Byung-ho left, and Kang Yoo-sik walked straight up there.
Like yesterday, his combat power began to be measured, and in the meantime, Kang Yoo-sik turned his head and looked at cadets and teachers, and the director Yoon Kang-Hyun who was standing alone.
‘They must have come to see me.\'
Other than that, there was nothing that the head of the academy would be interested in inside the gold class, and Kang Yoo-sik was convinced from the moment of his visit.
Therefore, he decided to show a scene that satisfies the expectations of the head of the academy, rather than completing the exam just like yesterday.
‘It was a bit vague… … But it will be good thanks to Lee Byung-ho.’
Kang Yoo-sik, who smiled a little, immediately unfolded the newly created collection list of Lee Byung-ho.
[Lee Byungho]
*Stats: strength, agility, durability, spell power
*Skill: Moon Piercing (A), Auto Counter (A)… ….
*Unawakened Skills: Lightning Excel (B), Spear of Thunder (B)… ….
*Abnormal state: Increased respect (recommended), decreased pride (recommended)… ….
It\'s a skill that Lee Byung-ho used when he was inexperienced, but now that he doesn\'t need it, it wouldn\'t matter if he took it.
Thinking so, Kang Yoo-sik immediately invoked the collection.
‘Collection.\'
[Debtor “Lee Byung-ho” is forcefully executed. The skill ‘Lightning Excel (B)’ is collected.]
[All the debts of the debtor ‘Lee Byung-ho\' have been paid.]
With a sense of wriggling in the body, Lightning Excel was in place, and at the feeling of satisfaction, Kang Yoo-sik smiled and looked straight at the battlefield.
“Class B. Twin Earth turtle. Three.”
And he called out the monsters he was most confident of.
