Kaaang━!

 

Lee Yu-ri’s aggro skill covers the entire cadet.

 

Their eyes were focused on one place.

 

And the scene I saw was Lee Yu-ri with Kang Do-hee and Shin Se-hee.

 

I knew that Kang Do-hee and Shin Se-hee joined hands.

 

However, since Shin Se-hee did not deal with Lee Yu-ri and ended up in a one-on-one situation with Kang Do-hee, the cadets trusted their leader and focused on their own fight for a while.

 

“…… Joe, the Chief is in danger! “Kang Do-hee and Shin Se-hee’s 2-on-1 combined effort—!”

 

Lee Min-young, who was in the midst of a fierce battle with another cadet, gave an order belatedly with his eyes wide open.

 

“Everyone, please stop fighting for a moment and listen to me.”

 

Shin Se-hee’s voice came in, cutting her words sharply.

 

“First of all, let me give you an apology.”

 

Shin Se-hee immediately bowed her head deeply towards the cadets.

 

“…… Eh?”

 

“What is that b*tch doing all of a sudden?”

 

“They’re hitting us in the head?”

 

“Oh, surrender? … ?”

 

“…… Shin Se-hee! “What is this!”

 

Her unconventional behavior instantly made the venue noisy.

 

Shin Se-hee took a deep breath as she looked at the battlefield with her calm eyes.

 

‘…… First of all, we succeeded in attracting attention.’

 

She thought back to what Jin Yuha had asked her a little while ago.

 

─ You must play the role of uniting the cadets.

 

─ Yes? My, my cadets?

 

─ Yes, very dangerous people are attacking from outside, and what will happen if the cadets are fighting among themselves?

 

─ That gap… …. They might be after it.

 

─ Yes, that’s right. Even if we come together as one, it’s not enough, so if we fight among ourselves, we’ll just become delicious food. So the fighting must stop now and unite the cadets.

 

‘…… ‘Did this man know what he was asking for?’

 

These are people who have been fighting to the death, pointing their swords at each other.

 

Of course, we are not strangers to each other in a battlefield where death does not lead to death.

 

The first battle seemed to start out cheerfully, with a somewhat light atmosphere and humor.

 

─ Kick, look at me. Oh, that’s funny.

 

─ So, are you cosplaying as a medieval knight?

 

─ Have you ever seen a bronze mirror?

 

But, 1 hour, 2 hours…

 

As the battle continued

 

Now they looked desperate, as if they were waging a real war.

 

─ Die!!! You become a human, you bastards!!!

 

─ Ugh, those damn capitalist swindlers…… !

 

The absence of death did not mean the absence of pain, and the scattered blood gave birth to madness.

 

Because it was a battlefield where wounds would remain if you did not receive treatment in time.

 

I don’t know if one of the two groups would have been overwhelmingly superior in that situation.

 

The battle continued evenly, creating a deep sense of immersion between the groups.

 

The madness became a bigger wave than expected and swallowed them up.

 

To the point where you have to worry about factions among cadets after taking the exam.

 

‘To unite such people……. Not even after the battle is over, but in the middle of the battle like this.’

 

─ I know this is a difficult request. But, this is something only you can do.

 

Jin Yuha’s eyes were full of trust as he said that.

 

Honestly, I couldn’t say I couldn’t do anything in front of those eyes.

 

‘Anyway, I heard you’re the one who always asks unreasonable requests…….’

 

Pisik─

 

Shin Se-hee laughed lightly and glanced at the cadets.

 

‘Starting now is important.’

 

Now we have to persuade them and unite them.

 

Do what you are best at and use the weapon you are most confident in.

 

That is,

 

‘Lies mixed with truth.’

 

Shin Se-hee opened her mouth with a small, but clear voice.

 

“You may all be confused, but first, look around.”

 

Then the cadets frowned and looked around.

 

And Kang Do-hee and Lee Yu-ri, who were next to him, also looked around at the cadets.

 

“What on earth are you looking at?” …. Uh!? What is this…… !?”

 

Then Yu-ri Lee’s eyes grew as big as a flower lantern.

 

And Kang Do-hee also didn’t make a sound, but he clearly looked embarrassed.

 

“…… Uh, since when did the number of people decrease like this!?”

 

Lee Yu-ri’s voice rang out as if representing their feelings.

 

Everyone looked around in confusion, as if they had realized this fact too late.

 

Yes, it has to be that way.

 

From noble mtl dot com

 

At first, there was a clash of personnel that was almost like a major battle, but now only about a third of the cadets remain.

 

I couldn’t help but feel strange after seeing this.

 

As if to prove the saying, ‘assassination if not caught,’ Jin Yu-ha mixed in among the cadets without anyone knowing and sent all the cadets who saw him back to the flying boat!

 

Shin Se-hee decided to attack this point right away.

 

They probably didn’t realize that even he himself had just escaped the battlefield for a moment to catch his breath.

 

He is truly a great person.

 

After reflecting on her admiration for Jin Yuha for a moment, she opened her mouth again.

 

“Isn’t it strange? “So many people disappeared from this place, and no one noticed it.”

 

“…… Uh, um. Hey, how did this happen? “Can’t you believe you caught them all!?”

 

Yuri Lee asked from next to her with a confused look on her face.

 

Shin Se-hee slowly shook her head.

 

“No, if that were the case, there would have been a dramatic change in the number of coins I had. “Close to two-thirds of the people have disappeared, so wouldn’t it make sense for the coins to increase in proportion?”

 

Then the cadets checked their own coins and the other person’s coins.

 

The remaining cadets’ coins increased little by little, but not so dramatically.

 

Confusion appeared on the faces of those who saw it.

 

Shin Se-hee gave them some time to accept the current situation. Said again.

 

“…… “We were completely unaware of the real purpose of this test.”

 

“…… !”

 

“This mid-term evaluation was not intended for us to fight among ourselves from the beginning. Rather, it is about fighting external enemies other than ourselves.”

 

Ttogak─

 

Shin Se-hee took one step forward.

 

“That means that the battle between the cadets in front of us was just a bait.”

 

Shin Se-hee’s clear voice hit the cadets hard on the back of the head.

 

Those who were dazed soon came to their senses and looked bewildered.

 

“Well, like that…” …. So then, what have we been doing up until now? ….”

 

“Test… …. “You were taking it wrong?”

 

“Then, what kind of people are they…?” ….”

 

A sense of desperation began to spread among the cadets who had been taking the exam, shedding blood and sweat.

 

However, there are some who cannot accept this literally.

 

“Don’t be funny…” …. Do not be ridiculous!!! It’s a trick! Chief Yuri! “You must not play with the tongue of that wicked snake!!!!”

 

The owner of that voice belonged to Lee Min-young, who claimed to be her confidant in Lee Yu-ri’s camp.

 

‘Hmm, as expected…’ …. ‘They just won’t let me go.’

 

Shin Se-hee, who had already expected this kind of reaction, smiled.

 

“Then, let me prove it. “There is not an ounce of falsehood in what I said.”

 

“…… Uh, how can you prove something that has no substance!”

 

Then Shin Se-hee slowly turned her head and looked at Yu-ri Lee, who had a perplexed face.

 

“I accept responsibility for leading the cadets down the wrong path, and hereby give up all my coins.”

 

*

 

Shock.

 

There were no words other than those words that could explain the current situation.

 

Cheonhwaga, who was mentioned as the most likely winner of the mid-term evaluation and had the most coins. She announced that she would withdraw from the game on her own.

 

They were so confused that they forgot that they were in battle and started talking to each other.

 

“…… Hey, what did I hear just now?”

 

“Coin, you say you’re going to give up your coins?”

 

“Huh? Well, that’s okay…… ?”

 

“…… “Do I know too?”

 

Shin Se-hee was one of the people who delved most deeply into the ‘coin system’ in this mid-term evaluation.

 

Starting with whether it is possible to exchange coins between cadets.

 

How much can be sold in a store, and whether purchased items can be resold.

 

Also about how the coin can be called exponentially.

 

It wasn’t until the homunculus inside the store, which looked exactly like the chairman, begged to go away that Shin Se-hee was able to discover a few loopholes.

 

‘…… Wow, I didn’t know I’d be using this like this. ‘

 

And that in a way that really doesn’t suit him.

 

Originally, dying to Yu-ri Lee right here would have been a great proof.

 

I don’t like that anyway.

 

It’s not like Jin Yuha dies,

 

Yuri Lee.

 

‘And this is my first mission as a combatant, so I can’t handle it so sloppily.’

 

Shin Se-hee took out a magic potion from her arms.

 

Bought at a store in case you run out of mana.

 

‘Basically, this coin system is like a safety net that protects the cadets’ bodies.’

 

If you receive a life-threatening injury, you will immediately receive high-level healing magic sufficient to save your life and be summoned to a flying boat.

 

And it will be a ceremony where you will receive full-scale treatment inside the flying boat.

 

This was an unavoidable measure because it was an uninhabited island and not the same place as the Velvet Academy that Maje took a long time to build.

 

That is why there was room for Shin Se-hee to delve into it.

 

After all, it wouldn’t be easy for a single cadet to dig up something created by ‘Demon Emperor’, the number one ranked hunter.

 

‘There was another hidden condition for being summoned to the flying boat.’

 

The fact that a homunculus resembling the Chairman of the Board of Directors told us to eat and leave with a face of extreme laziness.

 

It was a complete depletion of mana.

 

However, no matter how much mana you draw and use, it is almost impossible to fully use the naturally recharged mana.

 

That is why she revealed it without much thought.

 

However, Shin Se-hee used a little trick and was able to artificially reduce the mana amount to 0 for a moment.

 

Seuuu─

 

Let’s focus our minds.

 

Shin Se-hee’s mana slowly pushes out the surroundings and blocks them.

 

As if a transparent curtain had been drawn,

 

The path through which mana, which is naturally absorbed, enters is blocked.

 

Wow─

 

Then she summoned the largest flame she could into the air.

 

“…… Uh, huh!? “What is he doing?”

 

“Oh, as expected! Chief! “Hurry up and get that girl!!!”

 

However, Shin Se-hee fired the large ball of fire not at someone but into the air.

 

Shuuu─

 

A fireball flying vertically through the air.

 

Everyone’s eyes followed the tail led by the fire.

 

Because her magic didn’t hit somewhere

 

It just flew into the air and disappeared into a single dot.

 

“Huh!”

 

The amount of mana instantly decreased to 0, and the recoil scraped the entire body’s blood.

 

Her terrible pain came over her.

 

Shin Se-hee hurriedly drank her magic potion with her trembling hands.

 

Gulp─

 

Wow!

 

Then, for a moment, her body became blurry and then became clear again.

 

And, on her chest

 

[ 0 Coin ]

 

Only the reset coin remained.

 

Shin Se-hee looked at the cadets with blank faces and wiped the blood flowing from the corner of her mouth with the cloth that Jin Yu-ha had tied.

 

“Now, have my sincerity been proven?”

 

It was a wonderful smile that looked like it had been painted.
