I Obtained a Mythic Item - Chapter 32

Episode 32 New Student Hunt (2)

In general, demi-plane means a fictional world created by humans through magic.

In this space, it is possible to distort things that cannot be done in reality, such as crossing time or removing space limitations like the 4th dimension, which is commonly known.

Taking advantage of this distortion, Jain Koo held an event called ‘Hunting for Freshmen’.

After creating a huge field in subspace and pouring the cadets into it, they had them steal each other’s nameplates.

The size of the field created in this way is a whopping 21.5 million square meters. This is an overwhelming scale that far exceeds that of twenty general universities in Korea combined.

In addition, all kinds of devices are prepared in the field that was created.

For example, various traps and traps that grant status ailments, healing springs, forests of nightmares, shelters for freshmen, and more.

Jae-hyun planned to use these devices to hunt down students with Kim Yoo-jung.

however.

There is a variable here.

The existence of Eana Seo, who warped with her a little while ago.

‘Honestly, it’s best for us to attract Seo Eana. but.’

It is the appearance and behavior that make it difficult to approach even at a glance.

If you make a mistake by trying to say something hastily, it will continue to be a problem in the future.

It was only natural that if you made a bad first impression, it would take a long time to reverse it later.

After thinking for a moment, Jaehyun nodded.

‘We’re breaking up here. Seo Eana is an important person in terms of power, but her plan won’t be disrupted if she doesn’t exist.’

Jaehyun thought so and said quietly to Kim Yoojung.

“Let’s go. Should be here for 3 days. It’s better to find a shelter first.”

A shelter is a space where freshmen can hide from the eyes of current students.

Although there are some restrictions, a shelter is essential to survive the three-day event.

In the past, Jaehyun couldn’t find a shelter and was out for a while.

That’s because the number of shelters is absurdly small compared to the number of cadets participating in this event.

Therefore, it could be seen as a natural step to start looking for a shelter first when the event had just begun.

‘First of all, you have to prepare a base so you can respond to variables.’

that’s the conclusion. Jaehyun decided to move quickly and get out of here.

It was because the surroundings were open and there were few places to hide.

Together.

The moment he was about to step away, Kim Yoo-jung suddenly grabbed Jae-hyun’s arm.

“wait for a sec. Jaehyun Min. Wouldn’t it be safe to take that person with you?”

“what? If it is that person…”

Jaehyun turned his head in the direction of Kim Yoojung’s chin.

also.

There, I saw Seo Eana, who was scanning the field with puzzled eyes.

Kim Yoo-jung added an explanation.

“Right now, there should be at least one more person. He’s also a magic cadet, so I think it’s better to recruit him now.”

Why does Kim Yoo-jung make rational judgments so easily only at times like this?

Seo Eana in front of her is of course a great card, but she needs to be careful.

According to rumors that Jaehyun had heard before returning, she was said to be very cruel at times.

Jaehyun thought.

What if Seo In-na was recruited into the same team but betrayed them?

Then, no matter how much it is reproduced, there is little that can be done.

This is because, as a rule, skills of B rank or higher are blocked.

His high-level dealing skill, 《Chain of Lightning》, is an A-rank.

At least in this area, there is no certainty that even Jaehyun with high stats can beat Seo Ina.

‘To be accepted into the team here, I have to be someone I can definitely control.’

Kim Yoo-jung is out of the question.

Because we’ve known each other since childhood. It doesn’t matter how strong it is.

But Seo Ina is different.

“I am too strong. If you betray me, it’s over for both of you.”

Seo Eana is also quite a celebrity, although not as much as Ahn Ho-yeon. There was no way Kim Yoo-jung, who was interested in magic, didn’t know her.

“Oh no way. The same freshman, magic world. If that kid isn’t an idiot, he wouldn’t know. It’s terrible to meet even a martial arts student in the beginning. We have to gather our strength here.”

It was not wrong.

If we gather people who are even a little more powerful here, our future schedule will definitely become easier.

Jaehyun was not unaware of that fact.

However, Jaehyun did not have the confidence to embrace Seo Ina.

Before returning, there was very little information about Seo Eana that was disclosed.

One of them is being reticent and not easily trusting others.

Seo Eana basically doesn’t trust others.

‘It probably has something to do with family affairs. It’s something I can’t help.’

Jaehyun was somewhat aware of Seo Eana’s circumstances.

It was all he had seen and heard in the news and articles, but at least he knew a lot more about her than all the cadets here.

He looked at the lofty black-haired girl for a moment with a sad face.

If other favorite things or hobbies were disclosed, it would have been more accessible.

However, all that was revealed about Seo Eana was what Jaehyun remembered earlier.

‘What should I do? It’s definitely a waste of talent to give up here. but.’

The moment I was thinking about it.

Kim Yoo-jung approached Seo In-na first and spoke to her willingly.

“Hey… Hello. I’m Kim Yoo-jung, a new magician.”

“……I’m Seo Ina.”

A look of obvious hostility.

Jae-hyun realized that Seo In-na was of the same type as him.

You can see it just by looking at that attitude of not trusting others easily and recognizing them as objects of vigilance.

Seo Ina is not easy to deal with.

Intuitively, Jaehyun realized that.

However, Kim Yoo-jung, who had no way of knowing this, asked with an innocent face.

“If you don’t mind, would you like to come with us? That kid is also a magician.”

“yes? But…”

He hesitated and pondered. Jaehyun sighed slightly.

‘I’m sure he’s cautious and doesn’t have friends.’

Jaehyun was constantly updating information about Seo Eana.

Meanwhile, Kim Yoo-jung continued to persuade Seo In-na.

“It’s an event where freshmen are at a disadvantage, so I thought it would be good to get together. Especially in the magic world, it is much easier to fight when a group gathers.”

“……That’s true……”

The way she answered Kim Yu-jung’s question looked very awkward.

I felt it for the first time on the bus, but Seo Eana is definitely shy.

Jaehyun had a headache, but he had no time to think about it any longer.

Jaehyun sighed and pointed his finger up.

“I guess I’ll have to decide later whether to go out together or not?”

“……yes?”

Seo Ina looked at Jaehyun with a slightly fierce expression.

A face that does not understand English.

Kim Yoo-jung had already turned around and took out her staff and held it in her hand.

Soon, Seo Eana also realized Jaehyun’s meaning and moved her gaze to the air.

‘Something’s coming this way.’

Sap- cooung!

I started hearing a sound crossing the air, and then something unknown hit the floor with a heavy sound.

The sound was repeated exactly twice.

Jaehyun spreads a force field so that the dust doesn’t block his vision. Then, the inside began to become transparent.

Inside, I could see a man who had gained a lot of weight and a blonde woman with deep dark circles.

The woman’s side moved her lips first.

“Looks like you’ll be able to earn points easily this year, right? Already looking for three new students.”

“I know. After this hunt, we should eat delicious food to our heart’s content.”

Kim Yoo-jung and Seo In-na quickly judged the situation and took a combat posture.

However, Jaehyun tilted his head as if it were strange and just looked at the two current students.

He was clearly thinking differently than the two people next to him.

‘……Too weak for being a student?’

* * *

The names of the two current students were written on the name tag.

The woman’s name is Kwon So-yul and the man’s name is Shin Jun-sang.

Jaehyun’s eyes narrowed.

‘What if Kwon So-yul and Shin Jun-sang…?’

It was a familiar name.

Before returning, Jaehyun had heard their names before.

“Those seniors are martial arts. Wouldn’t it be better to run away from here?”

Kim Yoo-jung asked with a worried face. Her words came from a well-reasoned judgment.

However, Jaehyun shook his head.

I guess I got the wrong person.

“no. I have to catch it here.”

Except for swordsmanship, Shin Jun-sang is not a big problem. It’s probably hard to get rid of, but it’s possible.

But the problem was on Kwon So-yul’s side.

‘According to my memory, Kwon So-yul has a unique skill 《Explore》 that can track a set target up to 300 km. If you can’t get rid of it now, you might unite with other students and attack again. I have to end it here somehow.’

Kwon So-yul raised the corners of his mouth and began to creep toward Jae-hyun.

Jaehyun also took a step forward without being pushed by the momentum and opened his magic.

‘Here, I must not show that I can use magic without casting.’

It is poisonous to show all the cards you have to Ja-in Koo, the chairman of the board.

Jaehyun has to act as a highly skilled magic cadet here.

It is not a person who acquired a mythical item and became stronger overnight.

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…

The opened magic begins to spread like paint.

Kwon So-yul’s forehead twisted for a moment, but it soon returned to normal.

‘This guy… looks like a fight? Even his magical powers are pretty decent.’

There must be a reason why that freshman didn’t run away.

Kwon So-yul came to a conclusion and quickly fixed his sword. Like a lion aiming for its prey, it scatters its mana with the momentum to rush at it at any moment.

The same goes for Shin Jun-sang.

With the rushing tension, a 3 vs 2 fighting structure was formed.

Kim Yoo-jung stood next to Jae-hyun as if he couldn’t do it.

“Uh… ok. you can fight But what can I do?”

“Wait for now.”

Kim Yoo-jung was dubious, but decided to follow Jae-hyun’s words.

Jaehyun looked at the two in front of him with an expression without any tension.

‘Honestly, these guys can finish it in 1 minute by themselves if they set their mind to it.’

An idea flashed through my mind at that time.

Jaehyun decided to drive this fight more dramatically.

He intended to prove his worth to Gu Jain and the instructors at Milles Academy.

Shin Jun-sang yawned as if he was annoyed and put the sword over his shoulder.

“They look like they’re fighting? plaguy.”

“Don’t be alarmed. Especially that handsome guy. It looks a little dangerous.”

“Yeah, you must be a freshman. Hey, do we run an event or two? Look Carefully. I’ll get it all sorted out in no time.”

Shin Jun-sang waved his hands as if he didn’t care, and immediately kicked the ground.

A fierce swordsman glides towards Jaehyun.

A normal white longsword.

It has a bluish color with magic power, but compared to the one Jaehyun used before returning, it is dull to the point of not having a blade.

‘It’s been a while since someone threw a sword at me.’

Jaehyun let out a fishy laugh and lightly dodged the sword.

The stomping of the feet, the rotation of the body, and the continuous motion were all natural as flowing water.

Shin Jun-sang’s eyes, which had been watching him, gradually began to narrow.

‘What is it? Do you avoid all of my swords?’

Quick! Quick!

The sword kept making the sound of cutting through the wind, but couldn’t even reach Jaehyun’s hair.

On the other hand, Jae-Hyun effortlessly dodged Shin Jun-Sang’s attacks and kicked him.

puck!

“uh?”

Embarrassment escaped from Shin Jun-sang’s mouth.

Pushing back, he corrected his stance.

I felt dizzy and blood poured out of my mouth.

‘What is this…?’

The kick of the newcomer to the magic world caused a scar on her hard body, a martial arts person.

what happened now?

“If I leave my name tag now, I won’t bother you any more, so leave it and go away. Give me 3 seconds.”

Jaehyun’s voice came unexpectedly.

Shin Jun-sang and Kwon So-yul were shocked at the same time.

What the hell are they doing to show such a high-handed attitude towards their seniors?

At most, he’s still just a freshman.

Jaehyun slowly started counting down as he approached the shocked two.

“3 2 1…… it’s okay.”
