Chapter 62 – Academy (13)
The old professor looked at the tumultuous atmosphere and tilted his head.
“Hmm… Everyone please be quiet and take a seat.”
He opened his mouth as he handed out the materials he had brought with his students.
“The theoretical story ends here. Whatever the hypotheses about the rift, the most important thing is to solve the actual rift. Crack studies is a class for him.”
“Everyone has their timetables empty for next week, right?”
It was literally. There were no classes the following week. All required subjects.
“Then we will practice cracking.”
Fear crossed the faces of some of them. I knew that one day I would go to the rift, but I didn’t know that it would come so suddenly.
Haha. Don’t worry too much. Everyone’s skills… To be honest, most of them are beyond redemption. If you enter a real rift with that kind of skill, half of you will die.”
Swear words poured out of the professor’s mouth.
“I can’t let you die like that, so I’m going to enter the artificial rift.”
The professor posted a picture.
At first glance, it was an ordinary city, but it was a crack. Urban cracks protruding out of nowhere.
A village in ruins was realized around the clock tower rising in the middle.
“At first glance, it looks like an ordinary ruin… But it is a place where dimensional erosion has already occurred, artificially created cracks. Next week we’re going to practice cracking here.”
The faces of the cadets who were not confident in their skills became embarrassed.
“Don’t worry too much. ‘Cause I won’t diehaha.. Then everyone please form a group. The condition is 3 people in 1 group.”
“Ah..”
The students were taken aback by the sudden group activity.
“Would you rather have Joe?”
“Yes!”
The last time I was looking for a partner. It was the reflexive cry of a man abandoned by a female cadet.
Haha! That shouldn’t be. After graduating from the academy, the most necessary ability is to find reliable party members. Are you still going to ask someone? Looking for a comrade to entrust his life to?”
“I’ll give you 30 minutes. If you don’t make a group… It’s a pity, but I’ll give you a penalty point.”
As soon as the professor finished speaking, Suho Kang jumped up. And he ran right away, ignoring Anne who was about to follow. Towards Amelia.
“Amelia! Amelia! Let’s be in the same group as me!”
Seeing him, Amelia hesitated. As if she was looking for someone, her Siwoo slowly approached her as she looked around.
“Amelia, come with me.”
When Siu held out her palm, Amelia, whose face lit up, nodded without hesitation. If that’s the case, since she’s a peculiarity that isn’t affected by nightmares, she had no reason to reject it.
“What..!”
Suho Kang lost his mind with the rising jealousy. He was barely aroused by the pain of biting his lip. He shouted furiously.
“I-I want to be in the same group.”
“What? No.”
Shiu naturally refused, and Amelia hesitated as well.
“Shouldn’t you… Be in the same group as Anne?”
Suho Kang’s face was crumpled like broken glass at Amelia’s innocent question. At that time, Ann ran wild and hugged Suho.
“Suho! I!? Are you going to come and abandon me now? Touch me like that!”
“What?! What are you talking about. Don’t say things that others will misunderstand!”
“Kang Soo-ho. What are you going to do now?”
Ann suddenly hardened her expression and said in a cold tone. She had a hard tone, as if she were a superior. Hearing that, Suho Kang’s face stiffened.
He realized his situation.
While Kang Su-ho couldn’t speak and only opened his mouth. Helena came over.
“Can I do the same?”
Siwoo nodded his head straight away and looked at Amelia. She only had to agree with her.
Amelia pouted her lower lip as if something about her was not to her liking. Then she agreed to what she thought.
“Mmm.. I like it.”
*
Shi-woo turned his attention to Helena and Amelia, who were in the same group, paying attention to Kang Su-ho.
“First of all, shall we decide the leader?”
Amelia was originally silent and Helena was staring at Siu.
“…Do I?”
“I like Siwoo.”
“Yes.”
“Then I’ll take care of it.”
I unfolded the material given by the professor. It was a material full of explanations about artificial rifts, which will be included this time.
“The monster that comes out is a chimera? They look like zombies.”
“Iknow, right. It’s a monster between 1 and 2 stars.”
Perhaps because it was an artificially created rift, there was an artificial creature created by magic as a substitute for a monster.
‘Looking at it roughly, it’s a… E-class crack.’
“Shall we decide the position first? How is everyone fighting? Close combat is my main focus.”
Helena looked at Amelia and she smiled faintly.
“Miss Amelia is a windmill wizard, right?”
“Yes.”
“Then, Mr. Amelia can stay behind her. I’m confident in melee combat, and I’m also good at long-range combat. I’ll take the lieutenant closer to the front.”
“…”
Amelia pursed her brow and pursed her lips. Something made her feel bad, but she wasn’t sure why. She had never talked to anyone like this before.
Siu nodded his head. Even he thought that was right.
“Is that so?”
“Yes. Would that be good?”
Amelia looked at Helena with a sullen expression and opened her mouth.
“Helena. Oh, would you like to shake hands?”
“Yes?”
As Helena panicked at the sudden noise, Amelia also began to panic.
“Eh, not a lot, Joe, a little bit… Hot! No. I’m sorry.”
Amelia lowered her head, her face red. It turned to blush, as if it were going to steam out of her hair.
***
Artificial crack practice day.
Siu looked at the two pretty women.
Amelia was a charming colossal woman with purple eyes, and Helena looked like a high-ranking noblewoman, as if she had jumped out of a movie.
She is so beautiful that it is burdensome to stare at Siwoo from time to time.
‘At that level.. G cup? Is it H?’
Through Helena’s tight dress, her prominent breasts were visible. She was pressed so tightly that it was hard to tell how big her breasts were.
She was probably the same size as Amelia, who used her breasts as pillows.
While watching them, I heard the old professor’s last request.
“Everyone. Even if it’s an artificial crack, take it seriously.”
“Yeah~”
Some of the cadets were laughing and joking around. It was as if he was on a picnic.
The old professor shook his head at the light attitude of the cadets. It’s hard to change your attitude until you experience and feel it anyway.
But I couldn’t put them in danger. Because the children of noble people are not alone.
He sighed and shouted again.
“Please come and get the barrier device.”
A belt-type defensive magic tool.
It was an artifact that absorbs the shock applied to the body and even transmits it to a safe place in case of emergency.
‘Distributing this to everyone.’
It was a coveted artifact. That alone would make modern clanmates safer.
‘If I can get that one too, I’ll get it.’
I don’t know if it’s possible, but I thought I’d find out.
Artificial cracks.
It was Siu Jo’s turn to enter. He was entering a magic circle that moved to a random location every 5 minutes.
“It is a teleport magic circle. Relax and stand still.”
In Siwoo’s world, a teleport magic circle that is still being researched. However, this place has already been commercialized.
‘Certainly… The level of magic is higher here.’
Perhaps because of the abundance of mana, magic science was more developed. Close combat was compared to low level.
Siwoo looked around at his teammates. I looked at Helena and she was thinking hard about something. Then she nodded her head.
“Shall we go in?”
The party moved to the teleport magic circle.
Flash
As if entering another previous life, the scenery in front of me changed dramatically. In the blink of an eye, the surroundings were filled with decrepit ruins.
There was one building that stood out in particular. A clock tower that rises to the end of the sky.
Siwoo suddenly remembered what Helena had said.
‘I’m sure he asked if he knew what happened to the clock tower.’
He glanced at Helena. She was busy looking around as if to locate her.
‘Hmm…’
Siwoo, who was worried, looked around. Since artificial cracks are also cracks, the first step was to understand the environment.
There was a particularly noticeable piece of flesh. I was squatting and watching as Helena approached and her eyes lit up.
“Wow.. Have you already found it?”
“Oh, this?”
A piece of Chimera’s flesh.
As if it had been spilled on purpose, I could see chunks of flesh separated at regular distances.
‘Is this a hint for students?’
It seemed that they were made to act similar to monsters.
It was easy for him, who has the skill to track the traces of real monsters, to follow these traces.
“This way. Let’s start with the position we decided on.”
Helena looked up at his unstoppable attitude with her eyes expecting something. A skilful attitude uncharacteristic of a cadet. Something was different too.
I was more convinced while researching Park Jin-goo’s past. Acting as if he had become someone else at any moment, he seemed to have a secret.
‘It’s not normal at all.’
