Became an Academy Penetrating Spearman

2.Valendia(2)

After receiving the Goblin Magic Stone, I asked Daisy.

“This is my first time in Valendia. What is the market price of the inn here?”

According to Dashi, the average price of an inn was enough for me to kill three goblins, so I could stay for about a night.

‘Eating… I have bread and water in my inventory, so I’ll have to fill them up.’

“You said this was your first time in Valendia, right? Have you registered as an adventurer?”

“No.”

“Then, how about registering this time?”

Even a cadet at Lucidia Academy can register as an adventurer.

There are characters who enter school already as adventurers, so there is no problem.

Rather, registering as an adventurer was better for me now.

Because you can receive a request from the Adventurer’s Guild.

“Yes, it is.”

“What’s your name?”

I thought about what name to give for a moment.

“Lee Sihan.”

I originally decided to use my name.

After answering a few questions from Yiser Daisy, the adventurer registration is over.

“Registration complete.”

Daisy handed over a star-shaped badge, the badge of an adventurer.

Then, as if he knew I was going this way, he recited the same line as he did during the greeting.

“Lee Sihan-nim, may the bright light shine upon you!”

“I want to ask you something.”

“Oh, yes. What is it?”

“When is the entrance exam for Lucidia Academy?”

“Are you going to enter the academy?”

“Yes.”

Unlike the guards, Daisy didn’t sneer, she just smiled and replied.

“Opens in 28 days.”

‘As expected.’

The sentence to enter the academy within a month in the quest window.

In the end, it was that the academy entrance exam would take place within a month.

‘In Rupan, the entrance exam was a tutorial.’

However, you can’t work in a state of zero capital like in the tutorial.

“What is the best-paying quest right now?”

“If it’s a high-cost request… Please wait.”

After a while, Daisy showed me the requests.

Fortunately, I was able to read unique game characters that I didn’t know unless I interpreted them separately, as if it was a perk possessed by the game or it came from Rupan.

“Currently, these 3 quests are the best paying quests.”

[Stone Orc Subjugation]

[Bandit Subjugation]

[Poison Bore Subjugation]

Stone Orcs and Poison Boars are monsters found in areas far away from Valendia.

It takes less than 10 minutes to run as a character in a game, and less than 1 minute to use warp.

It took 30 minutes to meet the goblins near Valendia in an unknown place.

Besides, it took more than 10 minutes to get to Valendia after killing the goblins.

It must take quite a while to get to the place where these two monsters are.

‘The closest thing in terms of distance… He’s also a bandit.’

A bandit with several hideouts near Valendia.

In Rupan, they are treated as normal monsters, and the types are differentiated into bandit pawns, bandit elites, bandit executives, and bandit bosses.

If it’s just a bandit pawn, it’s not much different from a goblin, so it should be easy to defeat them.

Above all.

‘Unlike the game, I’ll be able to collect various loot.’

In the game, if you defeat it, you just drop a small amount of gold and bandit hood instead of magic stones.

‘But in reality, there must be more to take care of.’

Money or equipment possessed by bandits.

Rather than defeating monsters, this side will be able to collect more initial capital.

‘Bandits around Valendia… I might be able to find that item.’

After considering three requests and the current situation, I made a decision.

“Thank you for showing me.”

“Did you decide on the quest?”

“I’m trying to subdue bandits.”

“Okay. Then I’ll give you information about the bandits.”

Dashi told me where the mountain the bandits were hiding from was nearby.

“As proof of subjugation, please bring the bandits’ hoods.”

After hearing all the information, I found an inn and got a room for one night, and I was broke again.

By the time I entered the room, my stomach was full, so I took out bread and water to satisfy my hunger and sorted out today’s events.

A phenomenon I felt while fighting the goblins.

That must have been the effect of spearmanship mastery.

The sentence under the explanation that power is tripled when using a spear.

[Skills of those who have reached the pinnacle of creativity.]

If this explanation is true, it’s the sword you got when you killed the goblin… No, I was able to understand the phenomenon where the trajectory, which should be called a window, was visible.

Masteries such as spearmanship were different from Rupan’s other skills.

What if the existing skills of Rupan were acquired by simply raising the level and raising the skill level by crafting materials?

‘The mastery of spearmanship is about accumulating experience points based on the number of times spear-type weapons are used.’

A skill that raises the so-called Spear proficiency.

Because it is a unique method of proficiency, the display is displayed in percentage rather than F-EX, so it changes to MAX display when all levels are taken.

Other weapons also had mastery skills for each weapon, such as swordsmanship mastery and wand mastery.

It takes a lot of time for this skill level to rise.

So, in the latter half of the game, many users insisted on using only one weapon for the main character.

‘Well, I’ve completed all weapon masteries.’

I just chose a spear because I had a taste for weapons, but in the current situation, spearmanship was better.

In the case of bow mastery, arrows can be lacking unlike in the game, and since wands have magic numbers, they must consume magic whenever they use magic.

‘I don’t know how much mana it consumes. Magic might run out while I’m using it.’

Compared to that, a spear with a longer range was better than a sword.

Thanks to the effect of the Spearmanship Mastery, when using a spear, the power is tripled and the spear can be changed to a master level.

And the other skill I picked, Penetration.

When it penetrated the goblin’s torso, it informed me with a mechanical sound.

It penetrated the goblins.

‘Could it be that such a notification sounds when something penetrates?’

I couldn’t test it because I didn’t have anything to penetrate right now.

‘I’ll have to test it out when dealing with bandits.’

After organizing my thoughts on skills, I made plans for the future.

First of all, get the initial capital by defeating the bandits.

In the process of subjugating bandits, I study more skills and test whether I can raise points by repeatedly defeating enemies, not just through quests.

‘It’s not separately written as a skill point, but if it’s written as a point, it’s not just a skill….’

You may be able to raise your stats as well.

And if you’re a bandit in the mountains near Valendia, you might be able to find the item.

If found.

‘You can start on very good terms before taking the entrance exam.’

It’s been a month until the entrance exam for the academy, but that doesn’t mean I can’t sit still.

You have to start as early as possible to find the desired item.

After making a rough plan, I immediately got up and left the room.

***

Fuwook!

“Kkeuhh… BILLION! Sssss!”

After leaving Valendia, I immediately ran towards the mountain Daisy told me about.

I don’t know how big the figure of stamina is, but even if it’s not sprinting, I ran for more than an hour in the form of a marathon, and my body didn’t get tired until I reached the mountain.

20 Minutes to enter the mountain and search for bandits.

I found two bandits.

One was holding a sword, the other was carrying a bow on his back.

“What is this guy?”

“Put, I guess you got lost while riding the mountain?”

“He’s an unlucky guy!”

The bandit saw me and attacked me laughing.

They’re scumbags who attack people to kill them as soon as they see them.

If I felt guilty, wouldn’t it be less?

Or it could have been nothing like when I killed the goblin.

I took out the spear right from my inventory and grabbed it.

The moment I grabbed the spear, I felt the trajectory, just like when I was a goblin.

At that time, my body moved by itself as I saw the trajectory, but this time it was different.

I was able to understand with my head anew what the trajectory was like.

The trajectory was not just one, but several.

It was the trajectory that indicated the current movement I could move and the attack path I could currently make.

The moment I choose the trajectory I like, my body moves in response to my will.

Accurately stabbed the neck of one of the bandits who were charging like an idiot.

“This bastard!”

The bandit, who was carrying a bow, took out his bow and drew the string.

At that moment, a new trajectory appeared.

This was not a trajectory for an attack.

The bandit let go of the string and an arrow was shot.

You swing the spear along the newly created trajectory.

Kang!

The tip of the spear collided with the arrowhead and the arrow bounced off.

“What…!”

As if seeing an absurd phenomenon, I see the bandit’s shocked face with his eyes wide open.

‘I blew that one too, so let’s blow it too.’

I fixed my spear and threw it along the trajectory toward the bandit archer.

[You have penetrated the bandit.]

The spear, which pierced the bandit’s body and continued to move, became lodged in a tree behind him.

“Cool!”

The bandit, whose chest was pierced as he coughed up blood, collapsed.

‘As expected, there is a notification sound.’

I pulled the spear from the tree and checked the blade.

Fortunately, the tooth didn’t come out.

Shake off the blood on the blade with a moderate swing.

Compared to goblins, bandits weren’t as difficult to subdue as I thought.

And the phenomenon named spear or trajectory affected not only attack but also defense.

You can attack and defend by selecting the trajectory and moving your body.

‘He looks like he’s become some kind of martial arts hero.’

I turned around and saw the bloody, fallen body of the bandit.

Even bandits killed people.

But just like the goblins, I didn’t feel this way.

Even if you attack first, even if the opponent is a human being.

I was worried that if I killed someone, he might feel even the slightest bit guilty or fall into a panic.

‘It doesn’t matter.’

Looking at it objectively, it was a strange situation.

However, as I first thought, this side is a better situation for me.

‘I decided to think about my changed mind later.’

There were more things to worry about now than that.

A small pocket was attached to the waist of the corpse.

There was a small jingle and sound when a bandit fell.

I guess my prediction wasn’t wrong.

‘Now then….’

It’s farming time.
