chapter 37
“It was a big deal.”
“What.”
What’s the big deal? That’s one of course.
Ranking match.
This is a week-long event, where only twice a year, they compete against each other.
There is a fussy saying, but in reality it is just a festival. There are other real festivals, but it’s easier to think of them as just festivals.
That’s because scouts and citizens from the outside come to visit, and accordingly, stalls are set up and shops inside the island become lively.
good up to there festival? enjoy it No problem.
But that’s not the problem. The problem is-
“The moving plan is over.”
“lie!! Sunghoon, you promised last time. It’s too small for three people to live in this small room, so let’s go to a bigger room!!”
“Why don’t you talk like newlyweds dreaming of such a rosy future?! That’s a memory distortion. Obviously I’m going to a bigger place, so you told me to get a room and get out?!”
Ignoring Raphael who says that’s it, the original ranking match schedule is after the dungeon experience is over. It’s a story about Kim Tae-hyun getting a weapon from the dungeon experience and using that weapon to play an active role in ranking battles and events.
that weapon. I was trying to steal it. After taking that weapon and raising the rank in the ranking match, he was going to move to a larger dormitory.
But what about reality?
The damn angel summoned the reaper and put the shit away, and the ranking match was advanced.
is this real? Is this the bitter taste of life? It’s a taste I feel so much after coming here.
“Still, don’t be afraid of life. When there are bad things, there are also good things. You got your rank thanks to that guild leader. over there? Wouldn’t it be advantageous to receive holy water in such a large amount?”
“…Seongsu is good. Of course it’s nice, but it’s just too frustrating for three people to live in this small room. It’s already full with two beds. Who is the guy who decided that the top 1000 students will live alone in the dormitory!!”
“Isn’t it true that I usually live alone?”
It’s a dormitory built for you to live alone, so it’s probably right to live alone. Then you, who is the cause, will you go out? Let’s look at the blonde with the same expression.
If you avoid your gaze, it will whistle. Then he raised his index finger as if he remembered it.
“ah! That’s because 3 people buy it!! Can’t Lachesis get around in human form?!”
Five. Is this really an angel? I admired Raphael, who was different from the others at the accident meeting.
“Do you have personality problems?”
***
So in the end there is only one way.
Now I can’t take the weapon. In order for me to rise in the rankings in the ranking match, there was only ‘that’ left.
what? Of course, only ‘skills’ remain.
With this skill alone, would I be able to decapitate even a vampire with a single sword?
Therefore, I decided to open [Skills].
—————
[skill]
“Heavenly Protection (EX)” “Scythe Mastery (A+)” “Empty Slot”
[Currently, there are 2 “Heavenly Protection (EX)” left.]
[A mind map that can be expanded remains in Scythe Mastery.]
[Reaper Subjugation 10000000P]
[Rescue Minji Yang 100000P]
[Sophia surrender 1000000P]
[Raphael’s Wings 1000000P]

Roughly speaking, I have collected quite a few points. In particular, the reaper gave more points to the existence of an enemy outside the scenario, as it was powerful.
That’s why people run raids. It was hard, but the reward is certain.
Anyway, the skills I will acquire from now on are determined. Actually, I was collecting skill points.
What it is, is magic.
yea you want to use it Men’s Romance No. 1 You’ve entered the fantasy world, but if you don’t use magic once, there’s no point in entering.
I want to try it too. I want to build a magic chant with a magic chant while spit out nice lines through my mouth.
A turbid sentence that seeps out, a vessel of insolent madness— there is something like that. I mean, I really wanted to do it.
And now. It’s time for that old dream to come true.
[Total Points 1300000P]
[What do you want to search for?]
But I have no magic. I don’t have magic, how do I use magic? if you ask The answer is this.
[Do you want to purchase the skill “Rune Magic (A)”? Points after purchase are 1000P.]
Yes, of course. Then, naturally, I clicked on “Rune Magic” and read the description.
[「Rune Magic (A)」: The understanding of runes increases dramatically. Proficiency in rune writing increases.]
At the same time, I felt something filling my mind. It’s a feeling that is hard to describe in words, it’s like I’ve created a wiki in the corner of my head.
For some reason, I think I can do anything right now. Isn’t this the lack of confidence that arises on the eve of the exam?
I immediately picked up a nearby pen and wrote down the runes on the post-it notes I had bought in advance.
runic magic. In other words, engraving magic.
It is a legacy of the past that is rarely used in modern times, when magic can be expressed with just a few words.
It is a very simple magic for me, where you can use magic just by infusing a rune that has been engraved in advance with magic.
If this is the case, even people without magical powers can use magic. A murky sentence that seeps out—I can’t do this, but it’s okay.
Of course, there are several disadvantages as well. It is difficult to learn, and if it is not written in advance, it cannot be used during battle, and its power is also clearly limited compared to the chanting magic.
But I can offset all those shortcomings.
It was difficult to learn, so I learned it as a skill. With [Inventory], runes can be stocked almost indefinitely. The power… should be satisfied.
Where do you use magic?
And the biggest drawback of this magic is that you have to fill it with magic power in advance.
“Are you suddenly horrified? Is there a ghost in our house?!”
[Like I do. Did you turn on the air conditioner?]
We have a magic tank… no no. There are two illegal residents.
“Hey guys.”
“yes?”
[Nyan?]
“If I lived comfortably in someone else’s house, should I pay for the meal?”
is not it? The two of them met my eyes and tried to run away.
***
“Pa… my arm doesn’t move.”
[Nya.. Nyan. This is animal cruelty. I’ve already called the animal rights organization, so get a lawyer ready.]
“Why are you sulking like this? Anyone who sees it would know that I am working without pay. You bought me food. Did you buy everything you want? Then you will be satisfied.”
I ignored the guys who said it wasn’t enough~ and looked around. We are currently leaving the dormitory and are in the downtown area of Justitia.
Originally, it was time to be in the classroom, but now it is a ranking match.
There are no classes during the ranking match that lasts for a week, so you can just walk around like this.
Because the rules are quite liberal, let’s explain it briefly.
Students are given one challenge per day. With that challenge ticket, you can challenge other students, and a simple yet free rule of ranking rises when you win.
Of course, there is no limit to the number of defenses, so higher-ranked students are at a disadvantage. In other words, the important thing is whether or not you can advance while maintaining your ranking.
“Still, I’m glad that Sunghoon is at the bottom of the rankings. No one is going to argue.”
“If you do, you’re crazy.”
Obviously, in the original story, Kim Tae-hyun’s defense battle was the focus of this story. There are no particularly important incidents, and there are only a few minor incidents, so I am not nervous.
What is important to me right now is whether I can raise the rankings or not. Are you trying to escape from the cramped room?
life’s crossroads Well, finding a house is the most important thing in life.
As we were thinking the same about who can win by giving a challenge to someone, I saw someone in the crowd.
waving at me
Currently, Justitia was full of people who came to watch the ranking match even in the morning. Scouts, ordinary people, families, etc. It was almost crowded with people, but even in the midst of it, her beauty was noticeable even if she didn’t want to see it.
Brown hair, pink eyes like petals, and a bright, unspoiled face.
This is Minji Yang
“Lee Seong-hoo Woo-woon~~”
The name has also changed. Originally an annoying person. Or the one who won over Isiah. It had the same name, but for some reason it’s called a first name.
He ran to us waving his arms and sat down naturally at the outdoor table where we were sitting.
And while he was smiling haphazardly, he looked at him as if he was asking what it was, and he put his index finger on his lips.
He moaned and opened his mouth.
“thank you!! To say this!!”
thank you? what? The abduction of the reaper must have ended by saying thank you yesterday, but what else should I be thankful for?
Did you almost die and have a strange dream?
In this case, ignore it. When I didn’t say anything, Raphael, who was standing next to me, answered instead.
“What are you thankful for? I did what I had to do~”
“yes. Thank you to my pretty sister!”
“I am pretty.”
you are playing As I looked at the two flirting, I suddenly remembered and asked.
“Do you know where Isia is? I have a question for you about magic, but you don’t answer.”
“Um~ I know where it is, but I really do it too much. Are you going to ignore everything others say and speak only when necessary?”
I have nothing to say about that, but-
Startle.
For some reason, my spine became cold, so I looked back and saw a man. A man with a deep fedora hat.
For some reason, it emits a black aura. I think you just heard our conversation? Could it be that you just found your daughter when she needed it?
I got scared for a moment and turned my head back to normal and sat quietly.
I’m afraid, uncle.
“How are you? Lee Shia Are you going to see your dad now? You won’t be contacted for a while.”
“What?”
Is Isia’s dad here? To watch the ranking match? Why is that person?
I can’t come to see that tsundere fight Isia-
I thought about it, then a disturbing thought ran through my head.
“Oh no.”
“What is not?”
“It’s okay because I said it! I’m going on a date with my dad!! Bye Bye!!”
Yang Min-ji waved his hand and ran to his uncle, but after putting his back on his back, he said ‘Thank you!!’ one more time.
I don’t understand.
What. Nothing will happen. That’s right, it’s only natural for a father to come to his daughter’s game, right? Is not it? Right?
yes. In the original original, the case where nothing happened was the ranking match. It will be fine.
“Mr. Sung Hoon.”
“Noisy. would you say something weird? Stop it.”
“Do you know the word flag?”
I do not know.

dark space.
In a space expected to be the basement of a building, a student wearing a green-blue school uniform and a formal-looking man are sitting opposite each other.
The man’s face was hard to see, but what was certain was that he was not an ordinary person by looking at the clothes and behavior he was wearing.
“What. can do it It’s around 1028. It’s a piece of cake. no? Easier than that.”
disrespectfully. no. The nameplate of the student who was sitting proudly was black.
“no. It’s not about winning in a ranking match.”
“then?”
“Kill it. kill it Absolutely kill me.”
“… so far? Is it difficult to kill?”
The boy smiled bitterly as if he was in trouble, but he had no choice but to nod his head at the words that followed.
“The post-processing is done here. Let’s not just deal with the accident, but give us money that we can’t touch in our lifetime. I’ll give you a higher seat if you want.”
high place. money. accident handling. There’s no reason not to. Even if you can’t, if you do it before, you change your life. There is no reason to refuse.
“Lee Sung-hoon. This guy is Seong-Hoon Lee. Be sure to kill them.”
The thought of what the hell is that guy like this didn’t even have time to intervene. The boy just nodded.
“Leave it to me.”
It’s natural that ranking 1028 is not even a fistful.
