Chapter 314 – #87. Keraunos (1).

#87. Keraunos.

Aaaaa-!

“Ugh, ugh!”
“Run away. Come this way!”

This is the first floor academy.
Survival takes place every day.

Haha! Blood! Let’s see the blood!”
“It’s itchy. What year should I try?”

The weak races struggled to avoid getting out, and the powerful races hunted players weaker than themselves.

If you are eliminated from Survival, you will not receive coins.
If you survive to the end, coins are paid as a reward.

“Coin! Give me your coin!”
“D-I’ll give it to you! Save…”
“I do not need!”

BoldX treated coins as a form of reward and punishment.
The effect was clear.

While staying at the academy, players cannot earn coins separately.
However, there are many things that you have to buy and use at the store.
But there are no coins, and I can’t get them.
Players who need potions or various doping will find this system frustrating.

The survival reward and punishment system has dug that loophole.
For more interesting scenes, Bold X wears his head.

Certain rewards boosted players’ motivation.
In Survival, you can appeal yourself to guild scouts or receive coins.
It was not a bad rule as long as I didn’t get eliminated.

However, there is no choice but to drop out.
Survival itself is a genre that presupposes someone’s death or elimination.

It is the best stage if you are sure that you will not be eliminated.
However, if you don’t have that certainty, it’s hell close to the worst.

“Go to the human race dormitory.”
“Thank you for saving me… !”

Hana Kang has already gone through several survival trials.
As I returned, I was naturally repeating the same day.

In the meantime, it became stronger at a rapid pace.
Her determination to save someone gave her great strength.

“Human years… Stop interfering with my work!”

The ogre was furious and rushed at Kang Hana.
Kung-kung, it feels like Jicheon is shaking.

“… If you come any closer than this, I will not stand still.”
“Do you think you will hear what a bitch says! Don’t crush me at once!”

The ogre did not hide its ferocious disposition.
Rather, he threatened and tried to attack Hana Kang.

Kang Hana did not back down even when she saw an ogre ten times heavier than herself.
A week ago she lost to an ogre, but now she doesn’t lose to an evil ogre.

Even though the numbers written in the “System” Have changed, the will and heart she harbors are still the same.
Save the weak and punish the wicked.

Kang Ha-na stepped forward with her left leg and lowered her center of gravity.
Twisting her back, she pulled her right fist behind her.

She gathered her strength.
It seemed as if a brilliant light was bursting out.

The ogre swung a big club befitting its size.
She swiped down a blunt weapon larger than her strong one as lightly as her cotton swab.

Hana Kang thrust out her fist.
Her strength in her single punch was beyond her imagination.

The target was the ogre’s bat.

Quaang-!
Clumsy-!

The club was smashed.
Wood shards fell.

The ogre stared blankly at the wooden bat that had been split in half.

It’s not a club that can be broken by mere human fists.
It was made by obtaining a permafrost tree reputed to be hard and soaking it in the tears and blood of elves.
It was not something that could be broken by humans.

But it broke
A part of the end of the club is hanging dangdaerong.

Took-.

Even that fell in vain.
A weapon of the hometown dimension, it is only 2 stars after being calibrated, but…
He never expected it to break.

“This year… !”

The ogre’s anger was directed at Hana Kang.
He was more furious at having his things broken than at having sabotaged him.

“I will use your body as a weapon, and I will forgive you for that!”

The ogre was transported to a safe area before he could stretch out his arm again.
He didn’t even realize that he had been eliminated, and his red eyes were wide open.

Hana Kang eliminated the ogre without regret.
He showed no mercy to the wicked.

“…”

He couldn’t get it a week ago.
Same place, same people, same situation.
But he himself has changed.
The result has changed.

If Kim Jin-woo saw it, he would be comparable to the current Yoo Da-hee, and he couldn’t hide his surprise.

‘Return…’

Can go back to the past
I can’t determine when, but the benefits of regression were great.
Even if you move to the past, your abilities are maintained, so you can change the past at will.

Hana Kang felt fear for the presence of others under her mask.

‘Obviously that man is the culprit…’

A man who broke into the academy under the name Kim Hyun-woo.
A man who wears a mask and commits crimes against the Dark Elves.
A man who took away his own beginnings.

He was the culprit behind everything.

Because of his powerful psychic powers, he is clumsy at dealing with people.
The thought that he might hurt him made all his actions negative.
He is clumsy except for when he is active as a hero.

It wasn’t that stupid.
He was good enough to draw a suitable conclusion from the clues he now knew.

‘Maybe they’re going through a regression together.’

A man named Kim Hyun-woo has never entered the academy.
Through regression, the past has changed.
Naturally, it led to the conclusion that he was also a regressor.

‘Let’s not be weak, Hana.’

The way women were treated carelessly is vivid in front of my eyes.
Perhaps, they are committing crimes elsewhere as well.

Punish him at all costs.
That, he thought, was the reason he had come back.
He accepted it because it was his mission as a hero.

[‘Hero Origin Lv.21’ ▶ ‘Hero Origin Lv.22’]

Hana Kang quickly moved to her seat.
Survival is going on, and there are many weak people who need her help.

I can’t afford to waste time here.

Quaang-!

Knocked out a player who was trying to hurt someone.
Punishing one wicked man can save countless citizens.
Not all weaklings are good, but they were beings to be protected until they harmed others.

A subjective view of citizens is of no help to rescue operations.
Kang Hana learned that.

During the survival, Hana Kang flew around.
She can levitate by kicking air, so she moved around the academy grounds faster than anyone else.

She naturally had no choice but to be noticed by scouts.

“Don’t you think humans are quite strong? I’ve been moving ever since.”
“The fact that she hasn’t dropped out yet, her basic skills are guaranteed. Are you the chosen one?”
“The potential seems certain. Okay, I’ll have to put in an offer.”

The scouts looked closely at Kang Hana.
Wearing a red cape and an impressive suit.
It must be a human being in a dimension where a society of heroes with superpowers is located.

She was running around to save others, so there was no need to talk.
Is there any guild that doesn’t like the good nature that is deeply rooted in its values?

There are several sayings floating around among the players.
In particular, a quote about humans.

‘Humans are a lottery.’

The lottery ticket is translated into the language of each dimension.
And the sentence ‘Humans are a lottery’ naturally became a saying that the majority of players agreed with.

Occasionally, exceptionally good people appear.
A human who is overwhelmingly strong enough to feel that the race is meaningless.

“Hana Kang, don’t you want to join our guild?”

After the survival, Hana Kang received offers from several guilds.
It was something she went through every time she regressed.

“Thanks for the offer… But I’m sorry.”

She rejected all offers.
Since she was destined to regress at random, she decided not to make a personal connection.

The scouts smacked their lips.
It was a waste to just watch a player with great potential.

‘If Mr. Hana came to our guild, he would be a tremendous force.’

Even if he refused, the offer continued.
I was so busy that I thought it would be more comfortable to go through survival two or three times.

Then, Kang Hana heard a tempting word in her ear.

“With Hana-san’s skills, it wouldn’t be strange if she completed the academy early… It’s a waste.”

A single word from a scout’s mouth caught Kang Ha-na’s attention.

“… Early graduation?”
“Yeah. You can join a guild and, at the discretion of the guild, finish earlier than your fellow classmates. It is judged that learning and growing outside of the academy will be greater.”

Can get out quickly
There are many people to save in Academy Survival, but I couldn’t rest here.
Someday, he has to leave the academy, but he says he can bring it forward.

Kang Ha-na’s purpose is to punish her masked man, Kim Hyun-woo.
As her regressor, it’s a matter of thinking about how to catch him…

The scout confirmed Kang Hana’s reaction.
Early graduation, signs of wanting to leave the academy were visible.

“… Let me know if you are interested in the guild. I can give you early completion at any time…”
“That…”

Hana Kang grabbed the arm of the scouter who was about to leave.
The scout raised the corner of his mouth.

She has to feel good because she caught a talented person who is sure to become a strong player in the future.

“I need something to join the guild… ?”

Hana Kang asked cautiously.
The scouter told me in detail from one to ten.

She waved the bait by scattering various information about the merits of her own guild and how she could provide support.
In Hana Kang’s head, she only thought of going out of the academy and becoming stronger.

“Go, I’ll sign up.”
“Good idea. Compared to other guilds, our guild lacks nothing. You can be proud of being the strongest in the ‘Tower of Struggle’.”

The scout talked about this and that and took out equipment from the inventory.
She was thinking of handing over items that would suit Hana Kang.

“You can use it until you reach the 5th floor.”

From 1 star to 5 star, I presented equipment with various options.
It was a gift to commemorate joining the guild.

She also gave information on how to become stronger safely.
It was information about awakening and boss monsters.

Of course, Hana Kang did not listen.
She passed by my ear.

She doesn’t know when she’ll return, so she doesn’t care much.

“When can I leave the academy?”
“I can do it tomorrow if needed.”

The scout asked Kang Hana’s doctor.
Will you go out
Hana Kang firmly nodded her head.
Since she had already tasted the academy survival, she was thinking of starting to adapt to life outside the academy.

“I see. I’ll let her go through the early completion process. I can’t guarantee when it will be confirmed tomorrow, but it will be soon if possible.”
“Thank you…”
“No. Of course you have to do it.”

The scouter held out her hand to Hana Kang.
It meant shaking hands and saying goodbye.

“Welcome to being part of ‘Keraunos,’ Mr. Hana.”

* * *

Dahee Yu took my hand and led me.
The power I felt in the hands holding each other made my heart flutter.

‘Am I crazy?’

Even though I set up a harem and went around picking on this woman, I hoped that Yu Da-hee would be positively obsessed with it.
Her mind wandered over this selfish thought.

I entered a nearby tavern with Dahee Yoo.
There were no cafes, so this was the only place to have a conversation.

The atmosphere wasn’t bad.
The right feeling to tell a secret story.

“Give me the most expensive one here.”

I proudly ordered snacks, and Yu Da-hee stared at me.

“Awakening, what should I do?”

Dahee Yoo immediately got to the point.
There was no intermediate process.

I was strangely sad after thinking about the old days.
So, after discovering that she was regressing, she took her balls hostage…
Now it has become a memory.

“… How about we start by eating and talking?”
“You can eat slowly. After an important conversation…”

It was then.

“Miss Dahee!”

I wondered if food had been served, but an unwelcome man appeared.

“… Jupitel.”

Jupitel and his companions entered the tavern.
