I Became an Academy Fraudster

Episode 22

Two days ago.

Jeong Ha-yeon’s personal training room.

“Split an arrow into multiple arrows?”

“Uh.”

“If that happens, the destructive power of each split arrow will be too weak.”

“It’s a story that doesn’t apply to you, so do it quickly.”

“…After that.”

Jeong Ha-yeon barely held back from trying to say something and drew the bowstring.

The string of the bow soon becomes taut.

Ugh-

Mana began to accumulate in the arrow.

Wedge-

A shot arrow.

The arrow soon split into several arrows in an instant.

Tududuk-

However, the arrow split into several pieces and fell to the ground without even hitting the target.

Because of its low destructive power, it couldn’t even hit the target.

“…I did as you said, but it turned out like this?”

“Did you think it would work that way from the beginning?”

“No. In the first place, it is natural that the destructive power will weaken if one arrow spreads out into several arrows.”

No wonder she is so suspicious.

If the mana contained in a single arrow splits into multiple arrows, it is only natural that the destructive power will weaken.

And since the mana contained in one arrow causes loss in the process of division, the destructive power is rather weak.

That’s why not all archers use it.

However, because of Jeong Ha-yeon’s unique characteristics, instead of losing mana in the process of splitting one mana, her mana actually becomes stronger.

“Then really, just try it 5 more times.”

However, the power of the arrows that split all five times was terribly weak.

In an instant, her expression hardened.

“… Hey”

“Why?”

“Dalian is two days away, is it right to try something new? Isn’t it right to do our best with what we have?”

“Then you will never win.”

“You want me to do something that no one else could do in two days? That seems like a lot less likely to win.”

“…Because you have the talent to do that. You really can.”

“Hey. It’s okay. It bothered me that you made a bet with Kant because of me, so I accepted it, but I’ll just take care of it. Do your own practice too.”

“But.. If that happens.”

Giying-

That moment.

The door opened and a man entered.

It was Ho-jin who confessed to Jung Ha-yeon in front of the cherry blossoms not too long ago.

“Ha… Hello Ha Yeon-ah?”

“Yes. Hi? What’s going on?”

“No.. You should eat this for training.”

He passed the chocolate he was holding in his hand.

“This… I made it myself.”

He said, blushing on his cheeks.

“Ah… Ho Jin-ah! Thank you so much. Thank you”

Jeong Ha-yeon’s expression hardened.

“I don’t know if it’s just chocolate.

From what I can see, that was a bit over the top.

We’re not even dating.

“Ah! I see It’s a burden. Rather, I am sorry.”

Hojini turned around with his cheeks blushing.

At that moment, a notification sound rang.

Tee-ring-

[Skill 3 – You can stop the actions of demons who are possessed by demonic energy. – LV1.

(As the skill level goes up, the time it can stop will increase.)]

You will be able to activate the skill by meeting the conditions. Would you like to

What? Suddenly?

I felt terrified.

Now, in this room, there are only Jeong Ha-yeon, me and Ho-jin.

It’s definitely not Jung Ha-yeon… Then maybe..?

I tried activating the skill.

Hojini stopped walking outside.

“Uh… uh? Why are you doing this?”

From noble mtl dot com

f*cked.

Why is it so twisted?

******

Two days later.

The opening ceremony was finally held.

The moderator in the center of the Colosseum said.

“Come on. Then, before we start the main event, we’ll start with a quick eye candy to pique the interest.”

Kate walked into the arena of the Colosseum.

That’s right, he’s my next sparring opponent.

“Wow! Kate.”

There was a mixture of cheers all around.

“I want you to show your skills properly.”

“Before the full-scale event, there will be a demonstration of sparring between Kate and the sophomores.”

Dalian Demonstration is a small event held to arouse the interest of the audience before entering the main event.

This sparring is not reflected in the evaluation.

Kate nodded to the crowd.

Beside him stood another sophomore.

Soon they faced each other.

The referee looked over at them and said.

“Come on. Then ready”

“Start!”

As soon as it started, Kate’s opponent created a spear of flame.

The flame spear in his hand looked very dangerous.

Wedge-

Now he threw a flaming spear at Kate.

But Kate didn’t move at all.

“What? Even Kate couldn’t avoid it without avoiding it, right?”

“What are you thinking? Even if you use shield magic, you won’t be able to stop that.”

“The flame spear is very destructive in the first place, so you shouldn’t attack it head-on.”

Kate stretched out her hand toward the spear of the flames on the spot.

Ugh-

Soon, a blue barrier spread in front of him.

After that.

The flame window was helplessly blocked by the blue barrier.

His shield didn’t even have gold on it.

“!!!”

The audience’s eyes went wide.

“What? Are you going to block that casually?”

“What the hell is that shield magic? Is it different from normal shield magic?”

His talent is shield magic.

The shield magic he uses far exceeds the strength of ordinary wizards.

A fireball was created within Kate’s hand.

Fall-

Then a fireball spread towards the opponent.

The opponent hastily deployed shield magic.

A blue barrier appeared in front of him.

However,

Clang-

Unlike Kate, his shield magic shattered without a hitch.

Then the opponent sat down.

After that.

In an instant, the stadium became silent.

No matter how Kate is, it’s such an overwhelming gap against the same second year.

Everyone looked at the stadium with dazed expressions.

“The winner is Kate!”

“Wow. Isn’t he really kidding?”

“How do you like him as a candidate for our guild?”

In an instant, the audience’s eyes were drawn to Kate.

After…

I’m already at a loss as to how to defeat him.

But.

I looked at the elixir in my arms.

With this, it is not impossible to win.

*****

“Come on. So let’s start the main event. Jeong Ha-yeon and Kant. Please come in:”

Two entered the arena of the Colosseum.

“Then are you both ready?”

“Wait a minute.”

Jeong Ha-yeon said.

She took a deep breath.

We must win this match.

Now, in the Colosseum, not only guild officials, but also high-ranking government officials are all present.

If you lose to Kant, a candidate for the Crystal Guild, it is tantamount to proving that the Hunter Association has collapsed.

On the contrary, if you win, you can prove that the Hunter Association is still alive and well.

We must win this match.

“Okay! Then let’s begin. Start!”

Jeong Ha-yeon first distanced herself from Kant.

Kant had a dagger in his hand.

His nickname is Assassin.

His method is to quickly close the distance and decapitate the opponent.

“Yeonah Ha.”

Kant said.

“…”

Jeong Ha-yeon looked at him without speaking.

“I won’t attack you for three minutes and I’ll just avoid you. How is it? Then it will be balanced.”

“….”

Jeong Ha-yeon chewed on her lips.

“Really. Can’t you believe Then I’ll show you.”

Kant dropped his dagger to the floor.

“I’ll just avoid you for three minutes. Try attacking me once.”

Jeong Ha-yeon drew the bow without a word.

I missed the bowstring and shot an arrow at Kant.

Wedge-

Kant smiled at the arrow.

Just before the arrow closes on Kant.

He twisted lightly to dodge the arrow.

“Ha Yeon-ah, you are too slow. Huh?”

The crowd began to murmur after seeing Kant’s feat.

“What is it? Are you avoiding that?”

“Doesn’t that mean there is a huge gap between the two?”

“As expected.. The Hunter Association is gone. Is the president’s daughter like that?”

Jeong Ha-yeon chewed her teeth at the ridiculed words of the crowd.

Ah-

She drew the bowstring again.

Ugh-

This time I put her mana on the arrow.

The color of the arrow began to turn blue in an instant.

Wedge-

She flew toward Kant with a speed that was incomparable to that of before.

Kant tilted his head and put his hand into his bosom.

“What? Aren’t you avoiding it?”

“Isn’t it too late to avoid it? Right now, the arrows contain magical energy, so they’re too fast.”

Kant laughed and pulled out a dagger from his bosom.

Chaeng-

Then he struck an arrow filled with magic.

The arrow curled up on the ground without a pulse.

“Wow, just cut that off. Kant, did you say that student was a candidate for the ‘Crystal’ guild? As expected, being a candidate for the 1st place guild is great.”

“That’s right. To the point where it’s embarrassing to compare it to the Hunter Association’s daughter.”

Jung Ha-yeon swallowed her saliva.

The gap between him and me is this big?

Even though the first arrow was like that, this arrow was shot with sincerity and mana.

By the way, such arrows bouncing aimlessly?

“Yeonah Ha. Don’t get any uglier, let’s abstain at this point. Huh?”

Kant said with a smirk on his face.

Jeong Ha-yeon silently raised an arrow and started shooting.

However, as expected, Kant lightly avoided it as if it was no big deal.

He yawned as if he was bored with the situation.

“Yeonah Ha. You know it’s not right huh?”

Jeong Ha-yeon was in despair.

She says that all the hard work she prepared for today is so pointless.

Does she really have a talent for herself?

That moment.

One person’s words came to mind.

Nam Do-yoon said that even if I divide arrows into multiple arrows, the power of each arrow increases.

This is nonsense. It was natural for an arrow to split normally, resulting in a loss of magic power.

But he said I have the talent to pull it off.

“Three minutes have passed. Yeonah Ha. Am I attacking now?”

Kant made a leap towards Jeong Ha-yeon in an instant.

If we continue like this, we will lose.

You have no choice but to believe his words.

Jeong Ha-yeon closed her eyes and drew her bow at Kant, who was coming this way.

Wedge-

The taut bowstring loosened in an instant.

An arrow flying towards Kant.

Kant lightly took out his dagger and was preparing to cut it.

Just before the arrow collided with Kant’s dagger.

From noble mtl dot com

The arrow split.

“Yeonah Ha. I can’t even scratch my body. With split arrows.”

Kant chuckled.

And as if the split arrow didn’t care, it started running straight toward Jeong Ha-yeon.

At some point, Kant’s steps stopped.

“Uh… ?”

Kant looked at the countless arrows stuck in his body.

f*ck-

f*ck-

What happened?

There’s no way a fragmented arrow could pierce my mana-enhanced body…

So Kant lost his mind and fell down.

“The winner is Jeong Ha-yeon!”

The referee shouted.

“Congratulations Jeong Ha-yeon. Can I interview the winner?”

“…..”

Nevertheless, Jeong Ha-yeon remained silent.

Her eyes were on Nam Do-yoon among the many people in the audience.
