I Became an Academy Fraudster

Episode 33

Jeong Ha-yeon after the festival.

I went into a nearby cafe.

As she sipped her coffee, she remembered what had happened today.

The festival was the worst.

She didn’t go anywhere she was supposed to go today with Radeon.

But it wasn’t all the worst.

The words that Nam Do-yoon said next to him that he comforts him in his own way were quite cute.

“If my swordsmanship is really more beautiful, why don’t I just give up?”

Jeong Ha-yeon smiled.

She even said such nonsense to somehow impress me.

She was a little cute to be honest.

But that’s nonsense.

I had never seen him use a sword.

Compared to him, Radeon was a hard worker who never neglected training, holding a sword since he was born.

In addition, he has an overwhelming gift for swordsmanship.

It is unlikely that he can win against Radeon.

She did not put much meaning into what Nam Doyoon said.

She just said that because she wanted to look good somehow.

It’s a bluff that boys of that age want to look good for the girl they like.

That must be a bluff. Jeong Ha-yeon thought.

My daughter-

My daughter-

Soon the cafe door opened and a woman entered.

Jeong Ha-yeon waved her hand at her.

“Here. Minseo.”

She soon came and sat down in front of Jung Ha-yeon.

“Yes. Yeonah Ha. What are you worried about today? What happened?”

“No.. It’s nothing else.”

Kim Min-seo.

She is one of the few friends Jung Ha-yeon can openly talk about.

Jeong Ha-yeon hesitated at her and brought out her words.

“Actually, there is someone I like… “

“What? Really? Amazing, Great. Who is this? Who?”

Kim Min-seo blinked her eyes.

“No… That’s a secret, but I have someone I like.”

“Yes. However?”

“The person I like is not interested in me….”

“What? Really?”

“Yes… “

“…That makes no sense?”

“What makes no sense?”

“No. If Ha-yeon is the face, is it normal for a boy who is not interested to be interested?”

“…….”

“Or maybe Hayeon didn’t confess that she likes you?”

“.. If she confesses and gets dumped, you can’t even be her friend. I’m in so much pain just imagining it. That I can’t even be friends with that person.”

Jeong Ha-yeon made a painful expression.

“A. Don’t worry about that. Since you don’t confess, he’s not interested in you. If Ha-yeon had a face like yours, would a man she wasn’t interested in welcome with open arms?”

“Really.. Is that so?”

Jeong Ha-yeon smiled brightly.

“Of course not. Yeonah Ha. Have confidence. If you confess, if there are 100 men, you will accept all 100 of them?”

“…Isn’t it?”

“Of course not. Yeonah Ha. What you lack is confidence as a woman, not charm. Have confidence.”

“…Thank you.”

“Then when are you going to confess?”

“…Trying to tell them to come out now.”

“Really?”

“…Yes.”

Jung Ha-yeon fiddled with her cell phone.

She started dialing Radeon’s phone number.

***

I accidentally overheard Jung Ha-yeon and Kim Min-seo talking while sitting in a cafe.

That’s one of the worst routes.

Jeong Ha-yeon confesses to Radeon there and gets kicked out.

Feeling so frustrated, she makes a contract with her top level demon.

I have to stop that somehow.

I quickly left the cafe.

Then I called Jeong Ha-yeon’s mobile phone.

Diriring-

Soon after, her cell phone started ringing inside the cafe.

***

Jeong Ha-yeon’s cell phone rang.

[Call – Doyoon Nam]

Jeong Ha-yeon tilted her head.

Nam Doyoon…?

Why is he calling all of a sudden?

“Minseo. Wait a minute, I’ll answer the phone and come back.”

“Yes.”

Jeong Ha-yeon moved her steps outside her cafe.

“Hello?”

Jung Ha-yeon answered the phone.

“You haven’t forgotten, have you?”

“What?”

“If I had better swordsmanship than Radeon, I decided to give up on Radeon.”

“What?”

Did he take it seriously?

This guy was taking it seriously when he just answered meaninglessly because his bluffing appearance was cute.

“Why should I listen to you?”

“Because Radeon will never give up on Cha Ji-yoon.”

“…..How much do you think you know about Radeon?”

Her expression frowned.

“You know the truth, right? That Radeon will not give up Cha Ji-yoon.”

“…Hey, don’t tease me carelessly.”

“Aside from that, you answered. If I show more beautiful swordsmanship than Radeon, I will give up Radeon.”

“…Did you really mean that?”

“Uh. You weren’t joking, were you serious?”

“……”

“I will compete with Radeon at the next festival. You can come and see it then.”

“……”

Jeong Ha-yeon made a blank expression.

Did he take his medicine?

Did she mean it?

“Say something that makes sense. I’ve never seen you use a sword, so you’re going to win against Radeon?”

“Uh. Were you serious?”

“Crazy.”

Jeong Ha-yeon hung up on her.

Diriring-

Diriring-

I was afraid to hang up the phone, and the phone alarm sounded again.

Jeong Ha-yeon lightly ignored it.

After a while, you will get tired and give up.

[‘Nam Do-yoon’ – 10 missed calls]

Diriring –

Diriring –

“……”

However, the phone alarm kept ringing.

Jeong Ha-yeon sighed and picked up her phone.

“You made it clear. If I practice swordsmanship that is more beautiful than Radeon, I will give up.”

“Yes. Said that But what?”

“Keep your promise. That if I win, I will give up Radeon.”

“Why should I listen to you?”

Nam Doyoon let out a deep sigh.

I don’t think she will listen to me.

Shall we scrape a little?

“Ah… Or are you afraid that Radeon will lose to me?”

“..What bullsh*t. How.”

“Otherwise, there is no reason to reject my offer. Radeon will win anyway.”

“…Good. What if you lose?”

“What if I lose?”

“Yes. What would you do if I had you?”

“If I lose? I will drop out of the academy.”

“…..What?”

“You are giving up on Radeon, so I have to bet that much to balance the bet, right?”

“…..Are you serious?”

“Uh. I’m serious.”

She laughed incredulously.

It’s impossible for him to be able to demonstrate better swordsmanship than Radeon.

This is a bet or something.

It is a game that Nam Do-yoon will lose unconditionally.

“Yes. If you really beat Radeon, no, if you can even touch one in swordsmanship sparring, I’ll give up Radeon.”

“Really? I really promise you.”

“Yes. If you really win.”

Jeong Ha-yeon hung up on her.

If you’ve gone this far, you’ll give up on your own.

He even threatened to drop out of the academy.

Under common sense, it is impossible for him to touch even one Radeon.

There’s no way we’ll be fighting such an obvious battle.

Furthermore, in a situation where he was at risk of dropping out of the academy.

***

Closing time the next day.

“Come on. Everyone worked hard today too. You know that from tomorrow, outside guest lecturers from the guild will come, right?”

“Yes.”

“If each of you has a guild you want to join, please go and test it. Then today’s funeral rite ends with this.”

‘Elpon’ Academy has contracts with some of the best guilds or mercenary groups.

Guilds and mercenary groups select candidates from the ‘Elpon’ Academy.

And when they graduate, they take the candidate to their guild.

From the point of view of the ‘Elpon’ Academy, it is a great help to the performance as it is for its graduates to get a job in one of the best guilds or mercenary groups.

In the end, this system has not disappeared and has been maintained because it is mutually beneficial.

“As expected, there is no way I would do that.”

Jeong Ha-yeon muttered in a low voice.

I haven’t heard that Nam Do-yoon is doing swordsmanship sparring with Radeon all day today.

If Nam Do-yoon had really applied for swordsmanship training to Radeon, rumors about it would have already spread throughout the school.

Jeong Ha-yeon smiled.

As expected, it was just a simple bluff.

Well, there’s nothing wrong with that.

Because there is no chance that Nam Do-yoon will win in that fight.

It is a very natural decision in a situation where even dropping out is at stake.

Then he walked towards Nam Do-yoon, who was sitting behind him.

“Hello Doyun-ah?”

“Uh.”

Nam Doyoon answered dryly.

“Good idea.”

“What?”

“The bet we talked about yesterday didn’t work out.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“You agreed to bet on swordsmanship with Deon. Aren’t you going to do that?”

Drreuk-

That moment.

The front door opened and a student entered.

“Hey. Awesome awesome Really great news.”

In an instant, everyone in the class turned to him.

“Why are you making such a fuss?”

“No, Nam Do-yoon and Radeon are going to have a swordsmanship sparring at the next festival?”

“What? Really?”

“Uh. A while ago, posters were put up in the hallway. At the next festival, the two of us will practice swordsmanship.”

“Wow. Is it great?”

“Isn’t it too obvious that it’s a match between the first place in the school and the last place in the school?”

Jung Ha-yeon also went out of the classroom for a while and checked the poster hanging in the hallway.

[‘Nam Do-yoon’ vs ‘Radeon’ (swordsmanship competition)]

“…..”

Jung Ha-yeon looked at Nam Do-yoon in silence.

Aren’t you crazy?
