Chapter 30 – Episode 30. Ready
I met Felix and returned to the dormitory.
I feel relieved now that I am in my own space.
I took out the magic tool I had hidden in my pocket and checked the information.
────[ Receiving beads ]────
▶ Grade: Low to Medium
▶ It is a magic orb imbued with reception magic. (Disposable)
▶ If the position coordinates are transmitted from the transmitting bead, it can be received. (Disposable)
-────────────
Somehow, they gave me magic tools easily, and it was a one-time use.
If I take this and take it to the professors, it will be over right away. Seeing as I’m under the illusion that I’m a demon, it seems that I’m not paying attention.
Of course, I have no intention of taking it.
I should be the subject of this solution.
I put the transmitting bead back into the pocket of my cadet uniform hanging on the hanger.
“Hmm….”
But what to do with Felix?
It takes a lot of preparation to deal with Felix, who has become surprisingly strong.
There is no expediency setting, such as demons being weak to the light attribute.
“…Ah, at least I want to win in style.”
It’s okay if I can’t come up with a way to win.
It’s a pity, but after informing others of the danger, I’ll be the first to run and get beaten to death to pass the time.
Of course, the feeling of sacrificing for Lucy is better this way, but I want to kill myself and save it if possible.
After the situation is over, you have to take care of it so that the atmosphere can live properly.
“Should we go to the training ground first… No. That’s what we have to do.”
No money on hand
The only income is 3 million won a month for maintenance of dignity, but there are so many things to buy.
Anyway, I’ve been thinking about whether there’s a corner to make money, but there’s one place I came up with.
Victoria Academy cadet profile.
To put it simply, it’s like a profile on social media.
Everyday is basically an anonymous community, but you can register if you want to register a profile.
There are two types of people who register profiles.
The first is when you register a profile to elevate your guild or family. Like Ellis, the guilds were set, and the students were confident in their rankings.
The second is to get a guild membership offer or sponsorship.
Basically, test ranks and actual class videos are provided to scouts, but scouts cannot check all cadets, so eager cadets have to make their own efforts.
———————
Name: Lee Ho-yeon
Grade: 1st year
Class: A class
Age: 20
Affiliation: Student Council
Introduction: I am a magician in 1st year Class A. I am active in student council activities, and I am getting good grades in many classes. I will attach a video below.
———————
What do you have nothing to write about?
I have nothing to write, so I have nothing to write.
I’m sorry Lucy, but I uploaded a 1v1 sparring video. I also uploaded a video of the dungeon practice training. Nam Da-eun was more active than I was, but this could be of interest to active hunters.
After entering the information, click Register Profile.
“It’s a bit snobbish, but… It’s okay.”
Since the results have not been released yet, there is little to appeal to.
Still, this is insurance. There is no reason not to have risk-free insurance.
Since you know the original story, you could invest in a decent guild, but you don’t have any capital.
“Hey, let’s go to training or something.”
If you are in a hurry, if you ask Professor Lim Sol for a loan, will he lend it to you?
I’ll give it a shot when I get to know you better.

There weren’t many people in the training hall, probably because it was a Friday.
It doesn’t matter since I’m going to the private room anyway.
After meeting Felix and seeing him become stronger than I expected, many thoughts came to my mind.
I realized my lack of power and the situation I was in.
As I focus on attacking the heroines, it seems that I still have the feeling that I am playing the game.
‘If Felix had gone blind and tried to kill me earlier, he would have died the same way.’
Of course, this is an extremely unlikely assumption, but it is true that caution has been lost.
I have been sincere up until now, but from now on I have to work more seriously and carefully.
So today I’m going to try to establish my fighting style.
My problem is the low amount of mana.
The amount of mana and the circuit didn’t increase in size as long as the period of using magic was small.
Not to mention the problem of having a small amount of mana. Just as a car without fuel cannot move, there is no mana, so I can’t use magic.
If the mana circuit is narrow, it becomes a problem when implementing magic.
Since the passage of magic power is narrow, it is difficult to quickly convert mana into magic, and it is difficult to use a large amount of mana at once.
Up until now, I had been forcibly using the mana management ability of [Mana Sensing], But I couldn’t do it like this in the future.
The best fighting style in my opinion is quick battle.
That’s why I coveted Nam Da-eun’s space acceleration ability.
Remember that moment
The scene where Nam Da-eun uses her acceleration ability to catch a cave rat.
At that time, I had my eyes open, so I could clearly remember every movement of my magic power.
In addition, the video of Nam Da-eun using her acceleration ability was suddenly posted on Victoria Academy’s official SNS.
The more data to analyze, the better.
I watched her video for hours and recollected her memories, organizing Nam Da-eun’s mana management.
“Wow, my head really hurts.”
Nam Da-eun’s acceleration ability is not the ability to accelerate her body.
It is to create a spherical mana barrier centered on the body and accelerate the space itself within the barrier.
It is a much more efficient method than simply accelerating the human body.
It is the same reason that it is easier to move a round soccer ball quickly than it is to move an elaborately crafted articulated doll quickly.
The basic framework is to circulate mana at high speed along the body’s mana circuit and create power through acceleration.
However, if you do this, your body will overload too much and become a self-destructive bomber.
So it accelerates to space as well.
The mana around the body accelerates at the same path and speed, and the subject of the recoil must control the mana so that it becomes mana outside the body.
It is a precise and meticulously crafted skill.
Accelerating mana in the air to give it mass and redirecting the recoil from the body into empty space.
It’s something that most people can’t even explain.
However, I was a talent certified by the world’s strongest wizard.
Even if I look like this, I’m a guy on a different level from other starfish,
“Sup-“
Take a deep breath in and exhale.
Mana started accelerating along the body circuits.
At first, slowly cycle mana while waiting for the mana circuit to adapt. I increased the speed when I got used to it, and increased it when I got used to it again.
Ung-ung-
The space around me also jumps on that flow.
It was my first time using it, but I was able to do it naturally like water flowing.
The mana outside my body is also raised to the same speed.
Continuing that momentum, when I completely dominated the spherical space, I raised it to the maximum output I could generate.
Whoops-
The wind roared around the barrier surrounding the body, and the body’s mana circuit screamed.
A physical problem beyond the control problem. No matter how good the engine is, there is a limit to the speed that can be achieved if the car is small.
If I accelerated any further, I felt like I would injure myself.
Passing the acceleration and recoil I had accumulated onto the mana circulating behind my body, I shot her body forward.
Paaang-!
In an instant, my body reached several tens of meters ahead.
“Whoa…”
『Skill: [Acceleration] Has been acquired.』
———” Acceleration “———————–
▶ Skill
▶ Accelerate the space around the body and use the recoil to instantly grant explosive speed.
——————————————–
“If a skill is created this easily, my conscience is stabbed.”
Skills in this world are not learned by ticking and tapping like this.
You have to be fully aware of how to use it, master it, and reach a level where you can use it reliably over and over again…
I only used it once and it worked.
I’m sorry, but what can I do?
“Let’s see… Accelerate the space around the body and use the recoil to instantly grant explosive speed… Huh?”
What? Is it different from what I think?
I must have implemented magic faster than my opponent, so I learned the skill while imagining George from afar.
“Ah.”
Come to think of it, all the videos and memories I analyzed were when Nam Da-eun approached the enemy.
“No shit, it was a different skill in the first place.”
That’s how, after a few hours of hard work, I quickly got to running.
*
After training, I came out of the private room.
“Well, it’s not bad. You can run away quickly.”
I was walking to the dormitory, comforting myself.
“Or you can run fast when you oversleep. Um, is that okay?”
Is this really okay?
Tiriling-
The smart watch sent an alarm as if telling me to stop thinking about it.
When I checked, it was Moon Soo-rin who sent it.
Surin noona: Hoyeonah. By any chance, do you have time on Saturday?
If it’s Saturday, it’s tomorrow. Are you talking about the promise to eat the other day? I don’t have any commitments, just a lot of work to do.
Me : yes. I have no appointments for tomorrow.
But you can’t lie. Training is the only thing I have to do anyway, but if I get caught later, it’s annoying to deal with. Even if you can’t eat, it’s GO.
Surin noona: Phew, fortunately. I’m sorry to say it so suddenly, but I have a schedule for the public relations department tomorrow.”
Me: Oh, yes.
I drank kimchi soup alone again. But it’s normal to be misunderstood. Why don’t you tell me the important business first? This is my sister
Surin noona: Yes, come to the publicity department office by 9 am tomorrow. I’ll explain the details then.
Me: okay
Surin noona: Don’t forget to wear a cadet uniform, did you think it was a meal date? Sorry. Shall we eat later?
Me:hahayeah. Make sure to go somewhere delicious next time!
My sister has a good eye. Did you notice that you were a bit disappointed when you replied?
Public relations department, it’s nice to finally live the life of a good-looking person.
I never thought I would be modeling for a living.
“Wait a moment.”
Isn’t this using the portrait rights of Alice and I for free under the name of the PR department?
If it were just me and Alice, how many moon balloons would pop even if we did an internet broadcast, but these are fucking thugs…
Belt ring-
Surin noona: That’s right, I’ve pre-deposited the reward into an account for maintaining dignity. It’s a small amount, but it’s a sign of gender.
It is also the world’s most prestigious Victoria Academy. Won’t disappoint
“The door is open~. Money is coming in~.”
I happily checked my account.
[Balance: 5.12 million won]
Originally, the remaining balance was 120,000 won, so 5 million won was deposited.
“I heard it’s a small amount. This one has a different scale than mine.”
From the point of view of the common people, 5 million won is a high amount.
Anyway, I tend to be grateful for giving, so I’ll go shopping on the weekend.

Saturday.
I came here to do influencer activities for the first time in my life.
Throbbing.
My heart was pounding while I went to the PR department.
It’s really impressive to hear that a roommate gambler becomes a model.
“Hello~.”
“Hi, hello~ It’s been a while, junior?”
“Oh, isn’t it too hard to see the face of our public relations department junior!”
The female student council executives greet me eagerly.
No matter how much I flatter you, there is no place for you next to me. Sorry.
I accepted the greeting and entered the PR department.
This is my second visit since I haven’t been back since I was guided the first time, but it was amazing to see it full of people.
In addition to Alice and Surin noona, several women were gathered.
First of all, I greeted Alice and Surin noona.
“Chairman. Hello. Who are these people here?”
Carefully pointing at the first-time women, he asked.
“Hello juniors? These are the makeup artists. I’m going to be the face of Victoria Academy, so I have to look as cool as possible.”
As soon as Surin noona introduced me, the makeup artists started talking.
“Wow, that’s the male model, right? Crazy, really.”
“That’s right. But it doesn’t seem like there’s anything we can touch on there? You’ve already set it up perfectly.”
“…?”
When she looked at Noona Surin with an expression of not knowing what she was talking about, Noona Surin smiled bitterly at her, and she said.
“Ummm, that’s without makeup.”
“Yes? No, yes? Aye, what do you mean by that?”
“…”
“…Really?”
“…Yes.”
“…”
It seems that the motivation of makeup artists has suddenly died.
Well, from what I’ve seen, it looks really good.
I’m glad I didn’t ruin it further by powdering it.
‘Well, I’ll just have to stay still.’
I didn’t bother to say anything because the makeup artists didn’t like their expressions.
