I Got the Academy Morale Rune

EP.35 End of Semester Assessment (5)

– End of the game. Intermediate class assassin, Do Jae-hyun holder wins. Shinsung Medical Team, please check the status of Hyowon Kim holder as soon as possible.

with the supervisor’s words.

The match against Kim Hyo-won, who was tired, was over.

tenacious chick.

He must have possessed the [Stamina] rune.

In the first place, if you are a warrior, most of them are normal runes you receive when you awaken.

Thanks to that, I beat him with [Fighting] for about 15 minutes, but the match didn’t end, so I used [Venom Poison] and its derivative skill [Poison Claw] to win.

‘It’s the first time I use it, but it’s useful.’

[Poison Claw] is a skill that I haven’t been able to use because I haven’t used it in the past, but when used with [Fighting], it’s powerful.

[Poison] Rune is already level 4

The higher the level, the stronger the destructive power of the skill, so [Poison Claw] was a rat poison for Kim Hyo-won, who had no poison tolerance.

“The realization of justice is complete… .”

To be honest, I was so upset at first that I thought about pouring out all the runes.

Kim Hyo-won, who plays fair play drip and even uses special items, is disgusting.

But I endured it because I thought it would be too aggressive.

Just showing [Fighting] and [Toxic Poison] is enough to draw attention.

If you showed [Smoldering Flame], [Sturdy Teeth], and even [Fighting Fours]…

I may have been treated like a real monster.

Fighting using both hands as feet while igniting sparks.

Do you even bite with your teeth like an animal?

This is a complete lizard-type monster.

[Relentless blow, one move forward! Your fighting skills begin to become harder and more agile.]

[The rune level has risen.]

[You have acquired the ‘Multi hit’, a derivative skill of the fighting rune.]

[You have won the duel! With the mysterious power of the Rune Hunter, you can duplicate one of your opponent’s runes. Please select a rune to duplicate.]

[1. Solid endurance 2. Sword (not selectable) 3. Magical control (not selectable) 4. Meat defense 5. Samjae sword method 6. Shield (not selectable)]

An information window appeared one tempo late.

These were rewards for the duel.

I finished the battle by pouring my soul into [Fighting], and my level went up after a long time.

Combining the fighting skills that he has honed over the years with his actual experience, he rose two levels at once, and [Fighting] became level 5.

In addition, a new derivative skill, [Multiple Hits].

Like [Sword]’s [Strike], it seemed to be the main derivative of [Fighting].

‘and… .’

[Rune Hunter]’s reward for winning a duel with Kim Hyo-won.

The runes Kim Hyo-won possessed were quite surprising.

‘Isn’t it just stamina?’

[Stamina] is a common rune of warrior-type holders.

They mainly take charge of tanking in the party, so they need to have stamina to fight for a long time, so they receive the [Stamina] rune upon awakening… Even the holders who did not get this are often awakened by taking classes at the academy.

I still don’t have [sufficiency], let alone [meat defense]… Even the common runes of the assassin series could not be acquired.

There was a possibility that Park Jin-woo would have gotten it by now.

However, Kim Hyo-won did not have the usual [stamina].

He possessed the rare rune [Solid Endurance].

‘Somehow, it lasted a long time.’

Kim Hyo-won is a typical warrior class.

Among them, he possessed the rune of the tank side.

Including the rare rune [Solid Endurance], the most basic swordsmanship rune of sword-wielding warriors [Samjae Swordsmanship], and [Shield] and [Meat Defense] that increase efficiency in party hunting.

Perhaps the shield was not used because it was a one-on-one battle.

‘Just wear a shield.’

My stats aren’t as good as mine, but even the runes used are completely pushed to me…

Kim Hyo-won had no choice but to lose the duel.

High endurance and even the [Meat Defense] rune was pierced by [Poisonous Poison].

I clicked my tongue and picked a rune.

There was only one rune to duplicate from him.

[You have chosen strong endurance. Since it is a 7th level rare rune, the level will drop, and it will be registered as level 4.]

[You have obtained a new rune.]

[Acquires 2 Durability with rune inclination.]

‘It’s okay.’

Closing the rune information that showed satisfactory effects like a rare rune, I returned to the place where my party was.

“Wow- he’s a martial artist-”

Ga-eun Moon pointed at me with her characteristic teasing expression.

Now, I’m used to her expression and it’s pretty cute, so it made me laugh.

The other party also looked at me with surprised faces.

“Jaehyun-ah, since when did the fighting runes exist?”

“As expected, Jaehyun Do! It’s a rival I’ve recognized.”

“… … .”

[Fighting] and [Toxic] that have never been shown in party hunting.

That’s why they were so surprised.

I smiled slightly and delayed the answer.

After all, runes are like trade secrets for holders…

Everyone will understand.

“Are there three left now?”

All that’s left are Park Jin-woo, Kim Chae-eun, and Kang Joo-yeon.

Among them, the match between Park Jin-woo and Kim Chae-eun was highly anticipated.

Park Jin-woo, like the main character of the original story, will show how he has grown rapidly by himself, and Kim Chae-eun and I went through the dungeon several times to grow, so I wanted to see how strong he became.

What is Kang Joo-yeon?

He’s such a good kid, he’ll win this match without any problems.

– This is the twelfth game. This is Park Jin-woo holder of the intermediate class of warrior class, and Lee Dong-jin holder of the advanced class of assassin class.

“yes! It’s me!”

Even a tiger will come when I say it.

Park Jin-woo was called right after my game.

I wondered if Ji Yoon-jae would come out against him, but this match went according to the flow of the original.

At the time, I remembered being stuck with an ordinary assassin class.

‘I wonder how much he will show this time.’

Jinwoo Park makes his name known clearly in the evaluation at the end of the semester.

In the original, he showed [Wave Swordsmanship], which reached a high level of proficiency, and destructively pressed down his opponent, who was in the upper class, and his overwhelming performance became an opportunity to completely change the perception of the people around him.

However, this time Park Jin-woo does not have [Wave Test].

Instead, it was filled with more passionate efforts.

The guy who grew up alone…

I was looking forward to seeing what kind of performance he would show this time.

– Two holders, greet each other and prepare for the match.

The supervisor’s comments remained the same.

Park Jin-woo and the opponent lightly shook hands and prepared for battle.

And then the start sign.

It was the start of the twelfth game.

“Uriyaab… !!”

Park Jin-woo took the lead with a strange sound.

… Did you originally make that sound?

Something seems to be getting more and more unique.

But apart from the loud cheers.

His movements were as fast as the wind.

“Wow. Park Jin-Woo, unlike his appearance, he’s very fast. Is the speed too high?”

“no. You probably got rune assistance.”

Ga-eun Moon answered the question briefly.

Perhaps the rune he is using is [Agile movement].

This is the rune I acquired while hunting the Toxin Iguana, and Jinwoo Park is the speed assist rune from the start of the holder’s awakening.

Park Jin-woo runs at full speed as it is…

He approached right in front of the assassin-type opponent.

“what… !!”

It can be felt that the opponent holder, Lee Dong-jin, was bewildered up to this point.

Needless to say, combat based on speed is the exclusive domain of the assassin family.

[Stealth] They have runes or footwork-related runes, and they use the skills derived from them freely to subdue the opponent quickly.

‘… I’m not.’

When I first awakened, I only had [dagger], so there were very few common runes.

The horse is an assassin class.

Actually, I am a half-assassin, close to a warrior.

Of course, there were no runes that the warriors had in common, so I got a new one this time.

Anyway, such an assassin-type holder.

Although it was temporary, he was pushed by the warrior class with speed.

Lee Dong-jin probably wouldn’t believe that.

It’s not a common sense story.

“Ah, sorry.”

Suddenly, Kim Chae-eun exclaimed that it was a waste.

This is because, unfortunately, Park Jin-woo’s attack, which contained a conversion blow at the highest speed, was blocked right away by Lee Dong-jin’s dagger.

However, Park Jin-woo did not stop there, rotating his sword as it was, and continuously pushed Lee Dong-jin.

‘Are you so fast?’

I watched him fight with admiration.

This is surprising.

The guy’s speed stats and their associated rune support.

Considering him, it’s too fast.

But when you think about it a little more, it makes sense.

Originally, Jinwoo Park was a holder who had superior speed from the start.

It was the same during the entrance exam, and after that, he continued to focus on speed until he met Professor Tak Won-ho and learned [Wave Swordsmanship].

Balancing muscle strength and speed only after learning [Wave Inspection].

However, the current guy is not learning from Professor Tak Won-ho, and is developing his own sword by himself.

Of course, speed-oriented battles had no choice but to develop further.

“Lee Dong-jin has no power at all.”

“Is he really that strong?”

“I think Park Jin-woo is much faster than the assassin class.”

“Intermediate class vs. advanced class, right?”

“Honestly, he and Do Jaehyun aren’t in the intermediate class. It was proven in Do Jae-hyun’s match earlier. I was beaten like a real dog.”

The motives around them also shouted in surprise.

Considering the negative gaze toward Park Jin-woo and me at the beginning of the semester, public opinion is quite reversed.

Do I have to prove it with a game?

‘But it’s really overwhelming.’

Lee Dong-jin is facing Park Jin-woo…

I couldn’t show any performance properly.

To use the [Hidden] rune, the battle has already started and the individual itself does not appear, and Park Jin-woo’s [sleek movement] fully covers him when using the footwork rune.

The advantage that assassin-type holders have over warrior-type holders.

Jinwoo Park was offsetting all of that.

“crazy!”

Meanwhile.

I was startled and got up from my seat.

Park Jin-woo, who was constantly driving…

In an instant, he turned his body like a windmill and gave Lee Dong-jin a sword attack.

Its speed is so high that it cannot be easily checked with the naked eye.

It was too fast.

‘Nonsense. It’s a rotation series… .’

[Rotation Strike].

This is an upgraded version of the skill [Strike], which rotates the body and the sword at the same time at a great speed to feed the opponent a sword strike.

This skill cannot be derived from the [Sword] rune.

It is derived only when you have an epic rune called [Quick Sword that cannot be chased].

speed and swordsmanship.

An Epic Rune created by superimposing two elements at the highest level.

[A quick sword that cannot be chased].

In a word, Park Jin-woo is now.

He realized and acquired the Epic Rune with his own power.

Battle from start to finish.

His tremendous speed was understandable.

– End of the game. Intermediate class of warrior class, Park Jin-woo holder. win.

As it was, the battle was over.

Lee Dong-jin, who was already heavy with Park Jin-woo’s sword itself.

There was no way I could get even [Rotation Strike].

I looked at Jinwoo Park in the stadium with a blank face.

‘It’s a talent that really brings out cursing… .’

Wherever you look, this is the growth type protagonist.

It’s growing so fast.

“Uh-huh, uh-huh! How are you, Jaehyun Do? Is it worth having s*x with you?”

Park Jin-woo returned with full of euphoria.

I looked at him with tired eyes.

“A monster… I don’t want to fight you, now.”

“Oh! Who says who is a monster?”

This child is getting more and more erratic.

I don’t think it was that exciting in the first place… .

Anyway, Park Jin-woo’s match is over.

The match in Dalian continued.

In the middle, there was Kang Joo-yeon’s Gyeonggi.

She easily won the match against Lee Tae-joon, the second-in-command for all of her later years.

A near-complete [Fire that never goes out] and various practical experiences.

It made her forget that she was defeated.

She finished the match by proving why she was the overall head and B-class holder.

After that, several large and small competitions passed.

After so long…

The name I had been waiting for was called by the supervisor.

– This is the twenty-sixth game. Relief Kwon holder of the advanced class of warriors…

‘You’re finally here.’

Ando Kwon.

The most important person in the evaluation at the end of this semester.

As a spy of the ＜Villain＞ clan, the decisive holder who carries out the order to kill his motive and plunges the academy into chaos.

His game is finally out.

A game in which someone must die.

The supervisor’s call to begin with.

I waited for the next call with a slightly nervous face.

It was necessary to prepare in advance for the chaos that would soon come.

By the way…

-… And Kim Chae-eun holder of the intermediate class of wizards. Both students, please come to the test room.

“… uh?”

I doubted my ears for a moment.

Kim Chae-eun…

Are you Chae-eun Kim?

Why does Kim Chae-eun’s name appear here?

Obviously, the name of the wizard-type holder who will die in a confrontation with Ando-kwon is…

name is…

‘… It didn’t come out.’

I woke up to reality in a devastating way.

I felt a huge hammer hitting my head.

The name of the holder who was murdered was not mentioned in the original.

That means it can be anyone.

But this doesn’t make sense.

That was Kim Chae-eun?

Ando-kwon’s end-of-semester evaluation Dalian opponent…

Motivational holder who dies due to the joke of ＜Villain＞…

Was it Kim Chae-eun?

“I do… Lee.”

“Jaehyun! I will go!”

denying them all.

Kim Chae-eun smiled brightly and said to me.

And he went down to the exam room.

I just have a blank face.

I couldn’t help but stare at it.

A strong cognitive dissonance strikes the head.

The messy puzzle pieces scattered all over the place…

They match each other like a lie and come to us.

It hit my brain with a strong ringing.

Motive holder brutally murdered by Ando-kwon.

That’s really ironic.

This was my first friend in the world, Kim Chae-eun.
