89 – special evaluation(3)

After a little more time has passed since Kang Han Na disappeared.

“Ahhh, my eyes… … .”

“Could you shut up?”

“sorry… … .”

At Na Joo-hee’s bloody bruise, Lim Kyung-soo shrugged his shoulders and quietly shut his mouth.

Baek Ha-na sat down and watched the two rubbing their eyes for a while, then moved her gaze back to Lee Na-young, who was sitting on her lap.

“It’s fine?”

“Yeah, I’m getting better little by little.”

Lee Na-young has been carrying various types of potions so that she can be prepared for any situation.

Thanks to that, he was in the process of recovering his blinded eyes using a healing potion for application.

“Wow, I finally see… !!”

“Please be quiet. What kind of man is so soft-spoken?”

“… … Well.”

Lim Kyung-soo, who has regained his eyesight with a potion spread on his eyes like eye drops, jumps up and collapses again at Na Ju-hee’s bruise. This process has already been repeated more than ten times.

“yes… . I look good too.”

“yes. thank god.”

“Wow~”

Hana Baek pressed the area around Lee Na-young’s eyes once and then stood up. With everyone on the team recovering, it was time to resume the attack.

“Nayoung. map.”

“uh? Oh, yes.”

Lee Na-young quickly took out the parchment from her bag and spread it on the floor.

Naturally, Lim Kyung-soo and Na Joo-hee approached.

“I think we need to rethink our route.”

“Tea, yes.”

“… me too.”

I thought a monster that appears only in a summoning machine would be waiting, but the professor is the opponent.

It seemed like he had restrictions, but he is still a professor.

If the new professor, who had just been in charge of the first year, was at that level, it was obvious that if he met another professor, he would be eliminated.

“There is not much difference from the first time. As planned, we will move by the shortest route. Instead, this time, instead of going straight in, you decide after looking inside.”

If you don’t go inside, you won’t be locked up, and you can go back any number of ways.

“What if I chase you outside?”

“If that’s the case, this discussion itself is meaningless in the first place. Wherever you go, the professors will attack you.”

“Uh, um. I see… … .”

Lim Kyung-soo shyly scratched the back of his head and shut his mouth again.

“If you see the professor in the room, go back, otherwise break through.”

“… … It’s fine.”

“Me too.”

When Na Joo-hee and Lim Kyung-soo nodded, Baek Ha-na’s eyes naturally turned to Lee Na-young, who was sitting next to her.

“What about Nayoung?”

“I think I’m fine too. By the way… … .”

Lee Na-young raised her head while lengthening her tail for a moment.

“Well, Yu-Hee-sin said that there are also collectables… ?”

“Yes it was.”

“I think it must be hidden somewhere, like this parchment. And there must be paths that are not shown on this map.”

““… … .””

“Uh, huh?”

Lee Na-young, embarrassed by the sudden gaze on her, flinched with her hand holding the parchment.

“M-I’m sorry… That’s just what I said… … .”

“no.”

“… … uh?”

Hana Baek put her hand on Lee Na-young’s shoulder, who was about to become depressed.

“It won’t be all that Nayoung looks like you said.”

“Certainly, just thinking about the practice at that time, there must be something hidden.”

Following Baek Ha-na, Lim Kyung-soo nodded.

“There was no word that there was a time limit when entering, so it would be okay to look carefully and pass by.”

Finally, as Na Joo-hee nodded, Lee Na-young closed her pursed lips and flushed her cheeks.

“It seems to have been roughly decided, so let’s get up.”

“Ah, uh, yes… !!”

Lee Na-young put the direction of the road to the shortest route in her head, rolled up the parchment and put it back in her bag.

“Lim Kyung-soo.”

“… Is it me again?”

When Baek Ha-na called his name, Lim Gyeong-soo raised his shield with a trembling expression and stepped forward. Na Joo-hee, who was watching it, said with a slight frown.

“Since your position is a tank, isn’t it basic to be in charge of the front line?”

“No, what… . It is, though.”

Kyungsoo Lim scratched his head and glanced at Baekhana.

“I thought it would be more efficient if I protected that friend and the leader took the lead.”

In the battle with Kang Han Na, Baek Hana’s skills were overwhelming. To the point where I wouldn’t even dare to try rubbing it.

“It doesn’t matter.”

“really… ?”

When Lim Kyung-soo turned around to ask, Baek Ha-na nodded.

“instead.”

“… … ?”

Baek Ha-na looked at Lim Kyung-soo with a cold gaze that was quite different from when she looked at Lee Na-young and said.

“Don’t forget that the professors are watching.”

“… Looking back, I think it was right for me to be in charge of the avant-garde.”

Lim Kyung-soo quietly turned his head and walked toward the door.

Ki-Ik-

The door opened with a creepy sound, and a suspiciously straight hallway greeted the party.

“wait.”

Na Joo-hee stepped forward for a moment and put her hand on Lim Kyung-soo’s shoulder.

Paaa!!

“Ahh?!”

Lim Kyung-soo was startled by the large and small pieces of ice that passed by his ear and turned to the side.

-Pababak… … .

Fragments of ice were scattered evenly across the floor and walls of the hallway, and even to the far end.

“There doesn’t seem to be any trap.”

“… … Please tell me in advance!!”

“What kind of man is so timid?”

“No, this… !!”

When Lim Kyung-soo jumped up from his seat, Baek Ha-na turned his shoulder to the side.

“stop. and Na Joo-hee. As you said, there doesn’t seem to be a time limit, so it wouldn’t have been okay if I added a few words beforehand.”

“… I’ll be careful.”

Na Joo-hee pointedly turned her head, and Lim Kyung-soo sighed as he saw it. It’s because I realized that if I looked at it, it would only make the atmosphere worse.

“Im Kyung-soo. I’ll look ahead, so you walk while looking at the floor.”

“floor?”

Baekhana narrowed her eyes and said.

“Na Ju-hee roughly checked it, but there might be a trap that responds to weight.”

“… Could it be that something is falling from the ceiling?”

“I don’t know either. So walk.”

“… … Sigh.”

Lim Kyung-soo walked forward with tears in his eyes.

“Nayoung, tell me right away if there is something wrong with you.”

“Yes… … !!”

However, contrary to how nervous they were, there were no special hidden devices in the hallway, and no threatening traps were installed.

“Something is going wrong… .”

“Don’t be mean. If not, just say thank you. Didn’t you learn it at the specialized school?”

“… … That’s what it says.”

If this place was a real rift, he said something that wouldn’t be strange even if he ate more swear words. However, this place wasn’t even a real crack, and Im Kyung-soo grumbled a little at Na Joo-hee’s behavior of trying to bite him at every opportunity.

“Left here… Right next… … Go straight here.”

I arrived at the crossroads without any event that was so suspicious.

“The left side is the shortening room, and the right side is the rounding room.”

Just in case, Lee Na-yeong took out the parchment again and unfolded it, and Baek Ha-na and Na Ju-hee, excluding Lim Kyung-soo, moved their gaze to the parchment.

I looked to see if there was any difference, but the size of the rectangle drawn as a room on the parchment was surprisingly uniform.

“Let’s start from the left, as we decided earlier.”

“… left.”

Im Kyung-soo gave off a sense of alienation and turned around, but no one cared about how he felt.

Koo Woo-!!

“Hick… … .”

“It’s fine. It’s a fake thunderbolt.”

All four, including Lee Na-young, looked at the window for a moment at the strangely realistic outside scenery.

Outside, where the heavy rain was blowing, the wind was so strong that it was darkness itself, where nothing could be seen except dark dark clouds and rainstorm.

“… Let’s move.”

It wasn’t a very nice view, so the party started walking again following Baek Ha-na’s instructions.

“I should open it… ?”

Lim Kyung-soo swallowed as he looked at the huge door in front of him.

“I’m not going inside, so can you open it quickly?”

“… … yes.”

Lim Kyung-soo covered his body with the hand holding the shield and pushed the door with the opposite hand.

– Stop it!!

-Can’t you see I’m blocking it?!

An urgent-looking voice flowed through the slightly gaping gap.

“Open quickly!!”

“uh? uh, yes… .”

At the urgent voice of Na Joo-hee, Lim Kyung-soo quickly opened the door with strength.

– How the hell is this test?!

-Hey!! left!!

A huge banquet hall in a medieval style.

And two classmates working hard in a corner

“Kang Seok-”

“Move!!”

Na Joo-hee pushed Lim Kyung-soo away and ran into the banquet hall, immediately manifesting her ability, elementalization.

【Get Down!!】

At the same time as the voice filled with magical power, a huge flame soared around Kang Seok-ho.

-Kyaaa!!

As soon as a group of Wraiths flying around touched the flames, they let out a terrible scream and disappeared as they were.

“Juhee?!”

【It’s not over yet!!】

As Na Ju-hee said, there are still many races roaming around. Even at a cursory glance, there are dozens of ghosts.

Whoaaagh

Powerful magical energy began to gather around Na Joo-hee, who became the fire itself. Baek Ha-na, who confirmed this with her own eyes, pulled Lim Kyung-soo and closed the door.

“What, what?”

“Don’t open it yet.”

Pushing aside the flustered Lim Kyung-soo, Baek Ha-na stood in front of the door. And exactly one minute later, the door opened again.

“Wow… … .”

Lim Kyung-soo raised his shield in the heat, and Baek Ha-na released magic to protect Lee Na-young’s body.

Big and small embers stuck all over the place.

The surprising thing is that even though there are fires, they are burning in place without moving to another place.

“Na Joo-hee.”

“… wait.”

After removing the elementalization, Na Joo-hee wiped away the sweat and retrieved the embers that had spread around her.

“Juhee!!”

“… Sigh.”

Na Ju-hee let out a short sigh as she saw her fiancé running toward her. The reason was that I couldn’t feel the fluttering excitement of the past, probably because I’d seen too much of his ugliness lately.

“thanks.”

“… … huh.”

Na Joo-hee’s mood began to rise slightly at the behavior of her fiancé who came and hugged her tightly even though others were watching.

“… Why are there only three of you?”

Another classmate who was blocking the race with Kang Seok-ho. And non-combat students like Lee Na-young, who are the core of this exam.

“hahahaha, a few things happened. What about you?”

“We met the professor as soon as we opened the first door.”

“… Is everyone okay with that?”

“… … .”

Na Joo-hee’s eyebrows crinkled slightly at the reaction of her fiancé, who was suspicious of something.

“Why. Can’t you be fine?”

“No, he looks so fine. Actually, we also met the professor. The two missing now… … Great.”

Na Joo-hee furrowed her brow even more at the response of her fiancé, who strangely stretched out his horse.

“Why do you keep giggling and fucking like an old man?”

“… It’s because I’m ashamed. You guys are all right, but we lost two people.”

“What is that? It could be because each professor has different skills. If we weren’t one hundred and one, we would have all been eliminated in the first room.”

“… … yes?”

“yes.”

“Then, are you saying that the number of people who defeated the professor is one hundred and one?”

“right.”

Na Joo-hee told me everything very honestly without hiding anything. In the first place, he was defeated by Baek Ha-na in front of everyone, so he had no hesitation in praising Baek Ha-na’s skills.

“I see… Oh, hold on.”

Kang Seok-ho brought his teammates who were standing in the corner away from Na Joo-hee.

“It’s a name. Take that out.”

“The one you got in the first room?”

“uh. it.”

A non-combatant student named Myeong-ho opened the bag he was wearing around his waist and pulled out a thin book that was clearly marked by the passage of time.

“What is it?”

“A book containing the hidden rules of this test.”

“… A hidden rule?”

“uh. Come see you too.”

Kang Seok-ho naturally opened the book and held it out toward Baek Ha-na, not Na Joo-hee.

“… … .”

Baek Ha-na glared at Kang Seok-ho for a moment, then left Lee Na-young with Lim Kyung-soo and came to Na Ju-hee’s side to take over the book.

[ ψ(｀∇´)ψ Hidden information! ]

1. This test is an individual competition, not a team competition.

2. If you defeat another student and earn their surrender, you can bring back the score that student earned.

3. Special rewards are given to all students who reach the deep end, not just one! (That’s why you don’t have to fight!! (っ˘ ڡ ˘ς) )

“Individual exhibition… … ?”

As soon as I opened the first page, there was surprising information written on it.

“this-“

“Juhee!!”

Raising her head to ask her fiancé about this book, Na Joo-hee turned her gaze to the direction where she heard Kang Seok-ho calling her name urgently.

And.

“Huh!!”

A face flushed red with strength.

I was able to find my fiancé holding his white tail with both hands.
