I Became an Academy Fraudster

Episode 60

Son In-hyeok looked at a man who came out of the dungeon without saying anything.

“As expected.”

Then he smiled contentedly.

Son In-hyeok took out his scoring paper.

[‘Kane’ – 16:20]

Currently, Kane was the only person who came out of the dungeon to find the door.

Son In-hyeok started walking towards Kane.

Soon he arrived in front of Kane.

Son In-hyeok looked around.

After confirming that no one was nearby, he opened his mouth.

“Kum Kum- How was the information I gave you?”

“Ah – good use of that.”

Kane said with a grin.

“Indeed, the trap was set exactly where Mr. Son In-hyeok told me.”

“Of course not. It’s a trap I set.”

“I will take good care of my parents.”

“Yes. Of course you should.”

“If I pass the ‘Lphone’ Academy this time, my parents will give teacher ‘Son In-hyeok’ a really big present.”

“I didn’t ask for anything like that, but if you do, I should be grateful.”

Son In-hyeok smiled.

At the ‘Elpon’ Academy, a few transfer students are accepted each year.

You can think of it as the same as filling in students through transfer at a university.

The number of TOs that the ‘Elpon’ Academy receives as transfers per year is about 10.

However, there is only one student admitted by transfer every year.

That’s because of the extreme difficulty of the ‘Elpon’ Academy transfer test.

Students who applied for the ‘transfer’ test will take the ‘midterm exam’ or ‘final exam’ together with the students of ‘Elpon’ Academy.

And you have to win first place among them to be transferred.

If there is a tie for first place, there are cases where you cannot be transferred.

Only a transfer student can successfully transfer when he or she wins first place.

‘Elpon’ Academy is a place where outstanding talents from all over the world gather.

It was impossible to win first place alone in a place like that.

Therefore, there are several brokers.

It informs you of the questions that will appear in the ‘transfer’ test in advance and makes you prepare.

In return, brokers receive huge amounts of money or items.

The main customer base of the brokers was the upper class of society.

Because they pour a lot of money to get their children into the ‘Elpon’ Academy.

One of those brokers is Son In-hyeok.

Son In-hyeok smiled and looked at Kane.

It’s easy for this guy to be number one.

Son In-hyeok had already received several hundred million won from the family of ‘Kane’.

In addition, huge artifacts given upon success.

Son In-hyeok enjoyed just imagining it.

Son In-hyeok turned his gaze back to the entrance of the dungeon.

No one had come out yet.

“Whoa. Good luck.”

And then he let out a sigh of relief.

It was very unexpected that Doyoon Nam prepared a potion that would increase the duration of the gargoyle’s petrification magic.

“In the world… how did you know that guy? There is no way the information was leaked.”

There are so many kinds of medicines that increase the duration of the ‘petrification’ magic.

There are roughly tens of thousands of types.

By the way, among the many types of medicine, he brought a medicine that slows down the petrification of gargoyles.

As if he had expected that I would set up a gargoyle enchanted with petrification as a trap.

“What. I don’t know how you knew, but it doesn’t matter.”

Son In-hyeok looked at the entrance to the dungeon.

Nam Doyoon still hasn’t come out yet.

‘Of course.’

Even if you pass through the gargoyle’s trap, the way to the door leading out of the dungeon is very twisted and twisted.

Unless you memorize the maze-like path, it is impossible to find the door and come out.

‘The 7th floor is especially so.’

The guys gathered on the 7th floor are the ones who went against Son In-hyeok’s planting.

That’s why the way to find the door is more twisted and twisted than the other floors.

It will be absolutely impossible to escape.

Son In-hyeok looked at his watch.

[‘Test’ start + 21 minutes 10 seconds]

“Okay. I just need 10 more seconds.”

Kane, who came in first, came in at 16 minutes and 20 seconds.

That alone was a confirmation of first place.

It was as if his admission to this ‘Elphon; Academy was confirmed.

However, ‘Son In-hyeok’ did not write ‘Kane’ as number one.

There was only one reason.

Because there was an extra point for the students who opened the dungeon door on the 7th basement level.

The bonus was to subtract 5 minutes from the time of the students who passed.

‘I wanted to get rid of bonus points, but.’

The 7th floor is where the guys who dared to fight against me are gathered.

That’s why we gave it a more vicious difficulty level than the other floors.

‘Then I won’t have any excuses later.’

When I discuss the fairness of this test later, I run out of things to say.

It was just a device to prevent backbiting later.

[Start of ‘test’ + 21 minutes 15 seconds.]

“I can really give you first place now.”

Just like that, Son In-hyeok lifted up his scoring paper and was about to write down the first place.

Ugh-

I started to feel the flow of magic power from the dungeon gate.

Son In-hyeok hurriedly turned his gaze to that direction.

Jerbug-

Jerbug-

A man was walking out of there.

He was Nam Do-yoon.

Jerbug-

Jerbug-

However, it wasn’t the end with that one person.

I heard another person’s footsteps behind him.

He also showed up soon after.

He was Radeon.

“What the hell is this?”

Son In-hyeok made a shocked expression.

Then he looked at his watch.

[‘Test’ start + 21min 20sec]

When the additional points are applied, it is 16 minutes and 20 seconds.

In other words, Nam Do-yoon is tied for first place with ‘Kane’.

‘Son In-hyeok’ took out his map from his chest.

There was a map of the 7th floor underground.

The roads were so intricately intertwined that I wasn’t sure that even if I went in with a map, I wouldn’t be able to find the door.

In the first place, it was set to make it impossible to escape from here.

By the way, what the hell are those guys up to?

You really escaped there?

That in 21 minutes and 20 seconds?

‘It shouldn’t be like this.’

This goes beyond simply ranking the test.

Here, ‘Kane’ must win first place alone.

Son In-hyeok has already received a large amount of money from his family.

By the way, you can’t get ‘Kane’ into ‘Elpon’ Academy here?

If that happens, his own reputation as a broker will hit the ground.

Not only that, but I had to pay several times more as a penalty for the money I received from that family.

Son In-hyeok asked this question.

‘I have to catch the pod somehow.’

If you cheated in the slightest during the test, you can use that as a basis for a zero score.

For example, moving while destroying the walls of a dungeon.

Yes.

If it wasn’t for that, I can’t explain why it came out so quickly.

It must have been so.

Son In-hyeok smiled.

“Wait a minute, students wait here.”

After saying that, Son In-hyeok hurriedly entered the CCTV room.

“What are you here for?”

There was an assistant professor there.

“Oh, nothing else, there is a video I need to watch urgently.”

“What video?”

“This is a video of ‘Radeon’ and ‘Nam Do-yoon’ escaping from a maze in a dungeon. Could you please play it?”

“Yes. Then we will play it now.”

Soon after, the video of Nam Do-yoon and Radeon falling into the labyrinth began to play on the screen.

Son In-hyeok started looking at the video.

The video started playing from the moment I left the room with the gargoyle statue.

They stood in front of the maze entrance.

“Hey, sir.”

The assistant professor looked at Son In-hyuk and said.

“Yes?”

“Could I also see the map of the 7th basement floor?”

“Yes. Of course.”

Son In-hyeok handed her a map.

As the assistant professor looked at the map, he sighed.

“Is the road from leaving the room with the gargoyle statue to finding the dungeon door too complicated? Are you sure you can find the right way?”

“….”

“From the place where ‘Nam Doyoon’ and ‘Radeon’ are now, it takes 15 minutes without getting lost even once and only by taking the optimal route.”

“Yes. That is strange.”

“Yes? Is that strange?”

“Currently, ‘Radeon’ and ‘Nam Doyoon’ opened the door in the dungeon and came out.”

“…I…Really?”

The assistant professor put on an expression of disbelief.

“Yes. I just saw it.”

“..How is that possible?”

“….”

Son In-hyeok looked at the time above Radeon and Nam Do-yoon’s videos.

The time they stood in front of the labyrinth was 6 minutes.

From here, it is possible to reach 21 minutes only by taking the optimal route without getting lost.

‘That can’t be possible.’

Even if you take the map and fall into it, it will take you 30 minutes.

By the way, without a map, you never get lost and only go the optimal route?

That’s impossible.

You must have broken down the walls of the maze.

“Assistant Professor.”

“Yes.”

“If you see them cheating, please tell me right away.”

“Yes.”

“I will pay close attention, but I might miss something.”

At one minute past.

They were on their way to one side of the maze.

Nam Doyoon was at the forefront.

Radeon was just following in his footsteps.

‘That’s right, because there’s no maze so complicated.’

So far they haven’t broken the wall.

But soon there will be about 100 branching roads.

The correct answer is the third road on the left.

The end of the rest of the road is a dead end.

‘There’s no way I can choose that path.’

The probability is only 1%.

No matter how lucky you are, you will never be able to pick that one.

Radeon and Nam Do-yoon soon arrived at the fork in the road.

Radeon moved to the 5th road from the left.

Seeing that, Son In-hyeok grinned.

‘Of course.’

Over there, on the fifth road from the left, they must have reached a dead end.

And he would have chosen to destroy the dungeon’s walls instead of going back there.

That’s why the record of 21 minutes could have come out.

‘As expected, then.’

Son In-hyeok nodded.

Now you just have to give those guys 0 points.

If that happens, they’ll get paid.

The moment Radeon was about to enter the 5th road from the left.

Nam Doyoon grabbed his shoulder.

“Not there.”

“Huh?”

“I said I would guide you to the door.”

“That’s true, but.?”

“Then trust me and follow me. There is a solid basis.”

“Yes. Okay.”

Son In-hyeok smiled.

‘Sounds that don’t sound like words.’

There is no basis for judging which of the 100 forks there is a door.

It is purely random.

“….”

However, Son In-hyeok made a shocked expression.

The third road from the left is where Nam Do-yoon guided Radeon.

In other words, it was the way to the door of the dungeon.

A cold sweat broke out on Son In-hyeok’s back.

‘Yes. I must have been lucky.’

Somehow, once you get lucky, you might pass.

From noble mtl dot com

‘It will be impossible from now on.’

If you go straight from the third road from the left, you will come to another 100 fork in the road.

There, the correct answer is the 49th road from the left.

‘There’s no way I’ll get the right answer again.’

No matter how much luck Goddess is by his side, it is ridiculous to have 2 successes with a 1% chance.

However, Nam Do-yoon chose the correct answer again this time.

His footsteps headed for the 49th road from the left.

“…What is that guy?”

Even after that, Namdo Yoon met numerous crossroads, but he chose only the correct answer.

As if someone knew the correct answer in advance.

“This… Does this make sense?”

Son In-hyeok made a shocked expression.
