There Are Too Many Bugs in the Academy

Episode 56

20. No lightning strikes on Mt. Cheongong (1)

Hisperiif introductory dungeon and the first triad. After finishing a major incident, I was facing a peaceful daily life after quite a long time.

The days of taking classes, conducting training at the training ground, and doing homework.

When I was in the real world, I hated the plain daily life so much, but now I am about to miss the plain daily life.

And in the meantime, there have been a few minor changes around me.

It’s only been two weeks since the Triad ended, but Aidan was steadily growing based on the hero’s heart I gave her and the contract with Grundel.

In addition, the anti-elemental proficiency was raised in earnest.

Because Anti-Elemental was a really, really important skill for my future journey.

-Anti-Elemental training can be done by slowly increasing resistance through beginner magic ’embers manifestation’ or ‘rapid cooling’. No, I signed a contract with Grundel, so I’d rather have a quick cooling. It does less damage to the body, but the resistance will remain the same.

As I generously passed on my know-how, Aidan nodded her head vigorously with bright eyes.

Somehow, after the triad ended, I feel that Aidan’s trust toward me has greatly increased.

It has now reached the level of belief.

Besides, personally, it seems that he thinks he owes me something for the triad.

I even made an apology for that matter, so I decided to just keep it unwritten.

I felt burdened with such an attitude right now, but in fact, there’s nothing wrong with the main character listening to me, so I’m doing it.

In addition, the Flex club also has a large number of applicants due to the triad, and now has 15 members.

Of course, most of them were just extra NPCs that I couldn’t remember, but it’s not a bad thing to grow in size.

After all, the monthly dues will be collected little by little.

Moreover, the atmosphere of the club itself does not require much unity, so most of them are working well on their own.

The full-fledged club unity will come after being promoted to the central club. We haven’t met the minimum deadline yet, so we have a lot of time to wait.

And finally-

[Number of bugs fixed so far: 87]

[Fertilization rate: 7.8%]

[Tracking Points possessed: 2]

Twenty-one minor bugs were fixed and the fix rate reached 7.8%. Now we have only 2.2% left to reach 10%.

‘It’s still a long way off… … It’s the development of a long family from the beginning!’

I looked at the status window with satisfaction and smiled.

[Because I didn’t know the laws of the world could be so twisted.]

Looking at me like that, Lioner added.

Because he is a Lion who has almost no choice but to stick with the contract.

I docilely told him that I was a ‘player’ from another world.

Even Lioner himself said that he was convinced that I was not a criminal.

You can’t see the status window, but you can feel that special energy.

In addition, in this world, information about players remains in the sense of ‘succession’ or ‘prophecy’, so it was not difficult to convince them.

Well, in the online game Ma X Nogi and the immortal masterpiece World of X Craft, the definition of the player is not directly described.

It was a common setting in the RPG series, especially in the single RPG series.

【But where are you going today?】

“Can’t you see the equipment? I’m going to climb.”

I stood in front of the mirror and thoroughly checked my outfit again.

Today, I was planning to climb Mt. Cheongong located in the northern part of Nakwon Island.

So, they wore regular leather armor, not school uniforms or active clothes.

If the uniform is damaged even if it goes up for no reason, the repair cost will be higher.

In addition, the shoes and crampons suitable for climbing the mountain were not provided by Camilla, but worn gloves were worn.

It is truly a ‘easy to throw away’ outfit.

“Today, it’s just you and me. I can’t take any other kids.”

【If it’s a mountain climb, it’s normal to go together.”

“I’m not going to play. I’m going to farm temp.”

I answered, tying the sword tightly to my waist.

There’s something I’ve been saying consistently for a long time.

As the status cannot be distributed right now, ‘Templar’ is essential for growth.

Recently, rather than farming items, I focused on clearing the main scenario and personal training, so it was better to acquire the items in advance.

From a few days later, I was thinking of going around the dungeon with the club members.

A person who becomes a manager can’t hold back the members’ ankles.

【What kind of things are there in Mt. Cheongong?】

“Once you go, you’ll know. I prepared something that suits you perfectly.”

I lightly picked up my bag and left the dormitory.

* * *

A fresh and exciting start.

But it didn’t take long for it to be overpainted with terrible fatigue.

“Heh heh, this shibure. I didn’t expect it to be this hard.”

【Of course. Obviously, there is a hiking trail next to it, but after breaking the road, you are just climbing up the cliff right now.]

“Because I did it on purpose. How many times do I say it?”

I used to go up the mountain constantly, giving a tip to the Lioner who was approaching me every time I tackled it.

No, to be precise, the expression ‘running’ would be correct.

Cheongongsan is the third highest mountain among the eight mountains located on Nakwon Island.

Although there is not enough snow on the summit, the slope is very steep because it is a rocky mountain.

That’s why there was a separate hiking trail… … .

The reason I did not take the road was because of a special random encounter that only appears in Mt. Cheongong.

That’s ‘fallenism’.

As the name suggests, rocks and landslides occur randomly while riding the hiking trail.

I’d rather not know if a certain monster is blocking the way.

In the face of a natural disaster, there is nothing to do.

This is the reason why the hiking trails of Mt. Cheongong are especially treated as mines by players.

So I use the glitching technique-

He was using a ‘jumping climber’ to detour.

“👨👩👩👩👩👩👩‍👦!!”

Every time I jumped with all my might, it felt like I was climbing 3 or 4 stairs.

Jumping climber literally means a glitching technique that jumps and climbs a mountain.

Because mountains are, after all, terrain made up of small polygons.

If you adjust the jumping angle well, you can move on a straight path to the summit rather than on a hiking trail.

Of course, if you make a mistake in the middle, you will fall and be judged as graffiti… … .

Don’t underestimate the stagnant movement trained by various speedruns.

I jumped up skillfully, stepping on only the safe part.

And the reason I wore crampons from the beginning is to prevent such an emergency.

The Lioner, who was watching me as I climb the rocky mountain while jumping exhaustively, clicked his tongue once more.

【This is a real scene. Is this really my contractor?]

In the case of the Lioner, it was so steep that even the body of a honey badger could not climb the slope, so he was now in a spirited state.

Then, isn’t it just spewing out a word?

【It looks just like an elk.】

At those words, I could clearly see myself jumping fiercely and climbing up the cliff.

It was such a bizarre scene that I almost burst out of laughter without realizing it.

“No, f*ck you, don’t be funny now!! If you fall, will you take responsibility?”

【It is not difficult.】

I know how ugly this looks. That’s why I started in the least crowded place so as not to be noticed by other people as much as possible.

How much more would you run?

Finally, the stone pagoda I had seen every time I climbed Mt. Cheongong caught my eye.

A small stone pagoda that is suddenly placed on the Hassan road that will be used later.

If you see that, it means that you have come up halfway.

To take a break, I gulped down the stamina potion I had packed in my bag.

A cool sensation wraps around the body, and at the same time, the energy that was almost consumed quickly fills up.

It’s also an Illyanaze potion.

Performance sure.

Of course, as I have been practicing alchemy with Illyana recently, my training level has almost risen to an Advanced level.

Nevertheless, the effect could not even be compared with the one made by the master alchemist.

The effect you can feel just by going up to a higher level, Professional, right now will be enormous.

‘After all, from a professional level, you have to attend Ortana Faculty to achieve it. Even this is enough for me to sense it.’

It was purely thanks to Illyana, a master alchemist, that she was able to reach this point even though she had not studied alchemy in Ortana’s Faculty.

Most useful potions can be crafted once you reach Advanced, so there was no need to rush up your rank right away.

As planned, I would have to be in my 3rd year to take Ortana classes.

After taking the potion, most of the body’s energy was restored as much as he took a moderate rest.

I shouted, raising my hands high to re-energize my exhausted momentum.

“Now there’s not much left to steam. Let’s hold on! Hold on, Baeksanwoo!”

Would I have run 30 more minutes like that? After drinking four additional potions in the middle, I was able to reach the cliff of Mt. Cheongong, the destination.

An open plain formed behind a mountain.

When I suddenly shifted my gaze downward, the steep terrain that I had climbed using the jumping climber continued.

It was quite a dizzying height. If it wasn’t for the route I used to love, I would never have challenged it.

“Pooh!”

Either way, it was a success. I almost collapsed on a rock lying in the corner.

“This is more difficult than the hard work. I must not do it again…”

Each time you use the body-moving glitching technique, it will look like this. Breaking through walls and jumping climbers.

【This is it.】

The Lioner, who had materialized as much as he reached the flat ground, twitched his tail and said.

The whole time I climbed it, I thought about it, and in the end, it was a look of surprise when I saw myself doing it.

[So there must be a reason why I came all the way here.]

“Ah, I knew I had a quick temper, but it’s even more so today.”

I got up, dusting off the dirt on my ass, and started climbing the path leading up.

It wasn’t a road, it was just huge rocks laid out properly… … .

Well, if you can climb it, isn’t it all the way?

As he was quietly riding on the rock, the Lioner’s hair stood upright when he sensed something.

[…] … ?!]

“I thought you would feel it. It’s strange that you don’t feel it.”

Paradise Island, the setting for Paradise Academia, has another nickname among the locals.

‘The Tomb of Heroes’.

Not only the 5 heroes who participated in the expedition at the time, but also many heroes gathered from all over the continent crumbled in this land.

Such tragedies continued for a while after the demon king was sealed.

The Demon King is dead, but the vicious Magi and the Demon King’s forces that have remained on the entire island so far are still alive and well.

‘That means that there are a lot of armors of the heroes that have been lost all over the island.’

The more I climbed the rock, the more I felt that my hair was somehow jagged upwards.

The air is much thinner and drier than the previous cliffs.

【I hope this energy is good.】

The Lioner murmured in a trembling voice.

The place we went to was in the opposite direction to the summit of Mt. Cheongong. Next to it was a small bud that rose.

I let out a single word while enjoying the cool breeze to the fullest.

“Have you ever heard of a rumor that lightning doesn’t strike Mt. Cheongong?”

At the top of the bonbong, which was climbed up by picking up crude stones, there was a spear dyed in jet black.

“That’s because of that.”

Although not as good as the 5th Hero, the legendary spearman who once commanded the era, Ruera.

His thunderbolt ‘Aradwa’ was flashing.
