Insanely-Talented Player - Chapter 12
Episode 12
The Player Academy graduation exam has begun.
A total of twelve cadet players were facing the King of Heroes. 4 platoons. The situation is 12 to 1.
And Lee Seong-ho, the president of the association, who was full of ambition, could not help but be at a loss for words as he watched the test.
It wasn’t a battle, much less a test.
It was literally crushing.
A bitter cold swirled beneath the King of Heroes’ feet, creating a sword of frost. It wasn’t even a sword. Twelve blades made of cold energy. He created a frost sword that exactly matched the number of cadet players and stretched out his arms.
The first generation student he was dealing with was by no means an ‘ordinary player’.
He has already obtained various blessings and completed the succession work with the help of rankers from the Association since the Plague Lord season.
Furthermore, on the first day of the Endless Labyrinth season, a certain amount of farming was also completed through the so-called ‘Bus Burning’.
I didn’t expect to win that much. Even so, who would have known that the hunting dogs that the association put so much effort into fostering would fall so fleetingly?
I had no doubt that he had grown into a decent veteran player with the maximum support that the association could provide. It was actually true.
A facility that fosters hunting dogs that are strictly loyal to the association. Because it was a player academy that existed for that purpose.
The reason why we accepted the offer when Yooseong asked us to postpone the exam date was because if we continued farming, we would not be able to keep up with the hero king’s tower attack and growth rate.
At least in the fight immediately after the season reset, I thought I could aim for a 100% win rate.
“Uh-huh, student over there. Can’t you move a little faster? “Then the knife makes a hole.”
Yooseong said, moving the frost sword using the sword technique without lifting a finger.
Huh!
A cold sword struck at the player cadet’s feet, and he rolled his body miserably as if crawling on the floor to avoid the sword.
“Remember the formation! “Spread out and stay where you are!”
“The knife is falling in that place right now
.”
The shooting star responded to the player cadet who was screaming in anger. At the same time, frost swords all hit the four players standing around.
At that moment, another platoon rushed in from behind, aiming for Yooseong’s blind spot. At the same time, a seven-pronged blade emerged from the shadow beneath Yooseong’s feet.
Phew!
“Aaaah!”
A scream rang out.
“What are you doing, a lethal attack on a cadet?”
Lee Seong-ho, the president of the association, shouted from beyond the mirror glass as he watched the scene. His voice rang out through the speakers, and Yoosung answered as if it were someone else’s business.
“Oh my, you’re so cruel.”
The shadow blade struck the cadet’s shoulder. Blood was splattered, and at the same time fear began to spread like a plague amidst the pain.
“Should we at least make them watch a real lethal attack?”
The Sword Demon was there.
Blades of cold and shadow. The air around the area froze as the deadly force dwelled in each blade.
Huh!
Yooseong didn’t care and stretched out his arms.
Twelve swords, spinning around the shooting star, rushed in as twelve swordsmen.
“Wow, what a skill.”
Yoosung muttered as if it were someone else’s business.
A sword dance performed by intangible swordsmen controlled through swordsmanship. There was no meaning before that. What good would it be to have the latest cameras everywhere filming the movements of a player who doesn’t even lift a finger?
There were twelve cadets there, who had lost their will to fight and were suffering from injuries big and small.
“Okay then… I’ll start the graduation exam now.”
Looking at them, the King of Heroes continued speaking. At those words, the cadets tilted their heads. Are you about to start graduation exams?
“You there.”
“Yes yes!”
Yoosung pointed to one of the cadets who was sitting down, and the cadet responded in surprise. “
Which do you like better, TV or DC?”
“yes…?”
“Where is your favorite hero movie production company?”
The cadet was taken aback by the unexpected question and took a deep breath. After silence, the cadet hesitantly answered.
“It’s Ma Marvel!”
“get out.”
“yes……?”
“You don’t pass, so get out.”
The cadet was dumbfounded by Yoosung’s words and closed his mouth. However, seeing the frost sword circling around the shooting star, he could not dare to go against it.
“Then you there next.”
“Yes!”
“Which do you like better, Marvel or DC?”
“It’s Dee DC!”
“What’s your favorite movie out there?”
“This is the Justice League!”
“Wow, this guy is really smart. He knows something.”
Hearing those words, Yoosung nodded. For an instant, the cadet’s expression turned bright red.
Yoosung opened his mouth.
“get out.”
“yes…? “Why?”
“Is this the Players Academy or some university film club?”
The cadet was once again dumbfounded by Yoosung’s words and closed his mouth.
“Then next. Between Marvel and DC…
“I came here not as a member of the movie club, but as a cadet of the Player Academy!”
“get out.”
?”
“Then why are you talking nonsense instead of answering my questions?”
“No…
Cursing words flew out of the cadet’s throat for a moment, but he couldn’t help it.
Of the twelve cadets, three left and nine remained.
“Um, and the rest… I’m leaving except for you.”
Yoosung said as if he didn’t even bother asking anymore. But no one dared to object.
Two cadets were left behind.
“Well, that leaves two people left. “Why do you think you are staying?”
Looking at them, Yoosung spoke calmly. However, after seeing the tyranny(?) of the previous day, no one could easily open their mouth.
“Oh, don’t be too scared. You guys passed, so you can say it easily.”
Yoosung spoke with a smile later, and one of the cadets hesitantly answered.
“Did you decide to join us after seeing the two of us in the first battle?”
“Yeah, no. get out.”
“yes?”
“Get out;
“Bah; I just passed the exam…
“It was a lie.”
And again, one was left behind.
“Now there is only one left. “Why do you think you are staying?”
“I guess I’ll fail anyway, right?”
“No, I passed. “Shall I tell you the reason?”
In response to Yoosung’s question, the cadet nodded vigorously.
“Because I’m lucky.”
“Out of the twelve, you were the luckiest and survived until the end. Remember it well. “For players, luck is everything.”
Yoosung said.
“Congratulations on graduating first class from the Players Academy. Yes, this is the end. Please turn off the camera.”
“Camera…?” Before
the cadet had time to ask, Yoosung turned his head. It was almost simultaneously that the president of the association, Lee Seong-ho, jumped out from the mirrored glass overlooking the exam room.
Furthermore, the association’s ranked players assisting him were also there.
“What are you doing now, Mr. Kang Yu-seong?”
“Well, I was taking my graduation exam;
“Do you think playing around with people is a graduation test?”
“Ah, you spoke well.”
At those words, the smile on Yoosung’s face finally disappeared. The expressions on the faces of the rankers assisting the president of the association also froze when they saw that scene. This is because they know better than anyone else the true value of the player they are facing.
“I called you from the beginning with the intention of playing with people, and you’re still saying nonsense?”
“What the hell…
“All of the cadets here were either high-ranking members of the association or were in close contact with them, right? Except for him. And to test the children’s performance and extract data, they called me.”
Saying that, Yoosung pointed to the only player who passed.
“From the looks of it, did they bring him here to show off in front of reporters by saying we raised him like this? “I actually had the seedlings to grow.”
“…
“Are you going to take those stupid rankers who can’t even speak to the association, give them a ride on a bus and raise them as hunting dogs to use? “It’s been like this since the 1st generation, so from the next generation onwards, I’m just a screw-up, so I’m going to accept the second generation chaebol as well?”
Silence fell over Yooseong’s sarcasm.
“…What do you mean by that?”
After a moment of silence, Lee Seong-ho, the president of the association, coldly asked back.
“A changed world requires a different way of doing things. “We are simply looking for the most efficient way to respond in a changing world.”
“Pushing and nurturing loyal dogs with their heads down and their tails wagging in front of the association?”
“From an organization’s perspective, caring for ‘loyal people’ is an unavoidable lesser evil. “I don’t think you would understand it if you don’t know the organization.”
“It is a lesser evil.”
Hearing that, Yoosung laughed.
“The player is never a comic book hero. “It is nothing more or less than a weapon
directly related to the country’s military power .”
“No country is exempt. Not to mention China and Russia. Even the United States, which claims to be the leader of the liberal camp. That’s why I do what I can to ensure peace in this country. “It is about nurturing ‘war heroes’ who can be more efficient and organized and loyal to the country.”
“Oh my, you are born a patriot.”
“Hero King Kang Yu-seong, I do not want to be hostile to you. No, rather, I hoped that you, as the ‘King of Heroes’, would understand the situation our country is in. But I didn’t do that. And I was able to painfully realize through this opportunity that I had no intention of doing so.”
“You saved the drowning man, and now you want me to give you the bag too? “You have to take care of your belongings.”
Hearing that, Yoosung was dumbfounded and shrugged his shoulders.
Kaang!
At the same time, he adjusted the hilt of the frost sword and slammed it into the ground.
“No matter what I say, you’re going to let them all pass anyway, right?”
“I guess so.”
“Even if you lose against the King of Heroes of the World, you will fight well and with proper seasoning, you will receive articles and raise your stock price. I’m just going to plaster the academy’s achievements on portal sites. “You stuck a bunch of straws down my spine.”
“It’s the way the world has changed.”
The president of the association spoke derisively and Yoosung shrugged his shoulders.
“Anyway, what should I do about this? The Player Academy is already going out of business as soon as it opens.”
“Chairman! “There’s something you need to see!” At that moment, someone from the association rushed over and whispered to the president of the association. The association president’s expression froze.
— “Naga” An unprecedented situation that occurred at the Player Academy graduation exam…
— “Do you like Marvel or DC?” Is this a graduation exam?
— The association was simply ‘oblivious’ to the Player Academy’s graduation exam revelations.
— The Academy’s shocking revelation video quickly spread around the world…..
right before. Yoosung’s conversation with the cadets was filmed and exposed on the network.
“Where on earth did you get this video?”
“Have you forgotten that my friend is the head of the National Intelligence Service?”
The cameras in the facility were hacked early on, and the content recorded there was being exposed to various communities and portals.
– It’s a sight you won’t believe! How on earth could we possibly think of this as a graduation exam for players who will be responsible for the future of the country? Truly astounding….
The conversation just before was vividly captured and broadcast on the association’s state-of-the-art camera.
“It’s my daily life to get criticized, so even if it’s like that…
the Player Academy can’t do that. However, it wouldn’t be very persuasive to claim their innocence in a video that exposes the King of Heroes’ tyranny and the Association Academy as one.
At the same time, the evaluation of the Project Player Academy, which the association is putting a lot of effort into, will also fall into the abyss.
The L Player Academy video is so shocking;;; Is it possible to properly develop players in a facility like that?
L The King of Heroes was a no-brainer DC guy;;; Absolutely hate English language skills
L Well then, I guess even newbies should 100% filter out the academy now
L Who would say they are crazy and go there
L After all, Association Class CC；；
“Kang Yoo-seong…1”
“Have you heard of the Dark Knight?”
Finally understanding the situation, Lee Seong-ho, the president of the association, muttered coldly, and Yoo-seong only shrugged his shoulders.
［The provocation value increases amazingly!］
