I Become a Mafia in the Academy Chapter 57

I Became the Academy Mafia Episode 57

“Today, it is said that a ‘class ranking match’ will be held for all classes at the academy.”

Ji Soo-hyun’s bombshell statement dropped in the classroom during the morning assembly.

There is confusion on the students’ faces.

“No, it’s been less than two weeks since we entered school, and we’re having a class ranking competition?”

Looking at the cases of previous candidates excluding this one, most class ranking matches were usually held before the midterm exams.

But it’s only been two weeks since I entered the academy, and it’s a class ranking match?

Perhaps it was natural for the children to be embarrassed.

“Aren’t you guys? I heard that the higher-ups decided that way. It seems that the higher-ups thought it would be a good idea to get ranked quickly because there are a lot of interesting guys in this season.”

To be precise, it’s also because of the game’s setting.

As this season for players to enter school must contain many stories and events, it was natural that many special children would enter.

And so many events had to be packed into such a short period of time. I guess it’s an adult’s situation.

“Well, it’s called a class ranking match, but it’s just going into a dungeon and catching monsters, so you don’t have to be too scared~”

Just like that, Ji Soo-hyun, who was about to turn around and leave the classroom as if she had conveyed everything she had to say, stopped.

“Oh, I forgot. The dean said that the classes that took first and second place during this ‘class ranking competition’ would receive some special benefits, so it would be a good idea to work hard. ──That is all that has been conveyed. May I add… … “If you don’t get first place, everyone loses?”

Ji Soo-hyun says that with a sweet smile and quickly leaves.

A cold chill comes over the class at the sight.

“If you don’t get first place, you lose?”

“No, what if I told you today?”

As soon as only the students were left, the classroom began to buzz.

Since the ‘Class Ranking Match’ was a big event that could determine the environment for the semester, it was perhaps natural that other children would be interested.

And even among those children, there were three who were particularly calm.

“… … “I just need no bugs.”

“… … “I just need no bugs.”

“… … “It would be nice if there were no bugs.”

Jinwoo, Se-ah, Youngje.

To the three people who followed me into the dungeon in the basement, the dungeon seemed like nothing more than a place for training.

“It’s not a big deal, but everyone, don’t worry.”

Those are all useless worries. I don’t even know… … .

I already knew where I was going this quarter, so I fell asleep on my desk to save up some stamina before entering the dungeon.

* * *

Normally, it would be time for the first period to start.

The entire first-year class was on the academy’s playground.

And there was an instructor who commanded them all… … .

[You guys! Don’t move! I am not responsible if one of my limbs falls off while moving as I please!]

After a while, Ji Soo-hyun, who could not accept the fate of teleporting all the first graders, was looking at the children gathered in the playground and shouting with all her might.

“… … Calm down. “Instructor Ji Soo-hyeon, what if I get angry and make a mistake?”

And the male instructor who stands next to Ji Soo-hyun and calms her down.

Not long ago, it was Park Yun-ho, the first-year student leader who taught us villain studies.

“Please borrow the microphone for a moment.”

Park Yun-ho semi-forcibly takes the microphone that Ji Soo-hyun is holding and puts it in front of his mouth.

[Whoosh. Well, that works. First-year cadets, the cadets will be moving to the dungeon from now on. Of course, the difficulty level of the selected dungeon is tailored to the level of a first year student, so you don’t have to worry too much.]

Several children breathe a sigh of relief upon hearing Instructor Park Yun-ho’s words.

This is because some students were very nervous as this was their first dungeon experience.

[And, all first-year faculty and staff will continue to monitor the dungeon for the safety of the cadets. And in the process, there will be grading as well. Please, I hope you all have good luck. Please be careful.]

At Park Yun-ho’s words, some swallow their saliva, some clench their fists, and some look at their colleagues who will be attacking the dungeon together.

To that extent, the ‘real combat’ experience was an event that made them nervous.

At the same time, a purple light engulfed the playground where we were standing, and a familiar sensation from the past assaulted our bodies.

The movement of space happens in an instant.

As our vision, obscured by light, returned, what appeared before us was a strange space that looked like a cave.

“… … “Something feels familiar.”

Jinwoo hugs his body and trembles in a scene similar to an underground dungeon.

And the other children were also very nervous at the sight of the dark dungeon.

At this time, class leader Youngje opened his mouth first, lighting up the dungeon with magic.

“Everyone who can use light magic uses light!”

The children who came to their senses after hearing Yeongje’s shout turned on their lights one by one or drew their weapons and looked around.

at that time.

widely. widely.

“Wait a minute, everyone be quiet!”

Hearing a sound coming from somewhere, the Emperor warned everyone and lowered his body.

Everyone quiets down in an instant and listens together.

Crack, thump.

The sound was approaching steadily.

The direction is… … Obviously, it’s heading this way.

widely. widely. Crack. Crack, thump. Crack, thump, thump.

The children look nervously into the darkness as they hear a sound as if something is walking.

Gulp!

The silence was so loud that even the sound of someone swallowing could be heard.

Little by little, little by little, the sound got closer, and the owner of the footsteps finally appeared.

“Kirik?”

that… … .

“Oh, you’re a goblin?”

“Are you a goblin?”

“A real goblin?”

The children in the class freeze at the unexpected appearance of a monster. But soon.

“Puhup!”

“Fuhahahaha!”

“Goblin! “It was a goblin dungeon, right here!”

One by one, the children who confirmed the identity of the goblin began shaking and bursting into laughter.

“Hah! what! “You were scared for no reason, right?”

“Was the goblin dungeon where you spent your time?”

Seeing that, I lightly shook my head.

“That’s why I said it wasn’t a big deal.”

Sending him to the goblin dungeon as a class ranking match was rather natural.

No matter how many awakened people were selected for the academy, most of them were kids who had just entered the academy.

But there’s no way they would send me to a rough place from the beginning.

The community’s analysis was that it was probably done to give people the experience of killing monsters in the first dungeon. I think that’s right too.

Of course, that didn’t mean the children’s reactions were normal.

No matter how low-level the monster is, the opponent is a monster that can kill an adult male.

An opponent who must maintain a minimum level of tension. It is an appropriate balance chosen by the Academy.

However, the reason the children are able to laugh like this is probably because they still remember the experience of when Ji Soo-hyun sent them to a deserted island on the first day of the academy.

What a difficult day it was for the children at that time.

When I heard that I needed a magic stone to give me the magic power to return home.

The children had already experienced killing monsters for the first time, and when they heard that magic stones could be exchanged for money, they ended up destroying the goblins on the island.

And in front of those children.

The goblin appeared once again.

“Kirik?”

“… … Kill it. “Kill that goblin bastard!”

“Our class takes first place in the academy!”

“Kill the goblin and extract the magic stone!!”

The children in the class, who had identified their opponents, became very excited and started running forward.

When I heard stories from that time while participating in club activities, it was said that the children in the class wiped out all the goblins on the island, and in fact, each one became a goblin slayer.

If so, conquering the dungeon would be no problem.

The children of the ‘Familia’ club also ran over in excitement after confirming that they were goblins.

Everyone seemed excited, probably because they thought there would be no threat here.

… … So much so that they even stopped caring about me.

So I was left alone at the entrance.

Yes, this would actually be much better.

After confirming that no one was around, I looked around and found a strangely protruding stone, and pressed it with my hand.

* * *

The students of Class A, who had already experienced the goblin dungeon on the island, looked like fish out of water.

“Hey! “That goblin bastard is throwing stones!”

“Wizard! “Please block the stones and arrows!”

The experience of that day, of killing as many as a hundred goblins to quickly escape the deserted island, seemed to shine.

And, among them, there were children who showed the most outstanding skills… … .

“If I get just 10 magic stones, I can eat meat with my younger siblings today!”

Se-Awa detects the location of the goblins and immediately intercepts them.

“They said if you win first place, they will give you a dessert bar in your class. “You can never lose!”

Jinwoo climbs the walls of the cave and kills goblins.

“Let’s have Group A explore the right side, and Group B explore the left side. “If anything happens, I will come right away, so don’t worry.”

Youngje, who carries out his duties as a class president and supervises the children.

and… … .

“I can go back with a smile today.”

Even Choi Kang-hyeon, who returned to class in second place following Eugene in the past.

For Kang Hyun, who had never had a chance to show off his strength until now, this ‘class ranking match’ was a big opportunity.

If he comes in first place in this ranking battle, he will not only receive support from the Academy but also receive higher level requests from future guilds. So Choi Kang-hyun poured out all the sea water in the water bottle he brought with him to relieve the goblins’ lungs with sea water. It was dyed with

“Glasses, if this continues, won’t our class be ranked first?”

Jinwoo, who was dismantling the goblin’s chest, glanced up and asked Youngje.

“I can’t necessarily say that’s the case. “In other classes, there are some students who are at the top of the class and others who entered in third place.”

“Oh, that salt…” … The guy who says he’s the police chief’s son? Hey, no matter what, we have a boss so we can’t lose… … huh?”

As if he suddenly realized something, Jin-Woo jumps up and looks around.

“Boss, where have you gone?”

“huh?”

After hearing Jinwoo’s words, Youngje looks around to find out where Eugene is.

But Eugene was nowhere to be seen.

“… … Where did you really go? Seah! “Can you identify the manager’s location?”

In response, Youngje asked Se-ah, who was being escorted among the children and was trying to determine the location of the goblin.

“yes? Mr. Eugene? wait a minute!”

Since Se-Ah had already figured out Eugene’s magic power by guessing it several times, it was not that difficult to figure out Eugene’s location in a dungeon of this size.

However, Se-Ah’s eyes widen when she realizes that the location is unexpected.

“uh… … . “Are you down there?”

“… … under?”

“Yes, completely down. “It looks like he’s going somewhere alone.”

“okay? Then there won’t be any problem.”

Then, after hearing Se-Ah’s story, Youngje shrugged his shoulders as if it was no big deal, and Jinwoo also nodded as if he understood and pulled out the goblin’s magic stone again.

“I guess the boss has an idea, right? He’s a guy who’s been crushing goblin heads with his fist since day one. Is there anything wrong with him?”

Other children nearby also nod their heads as Jinwoo mumbles.

This is because the memories of that day are strongly embedded in the children’s minds.

“Okay then, let’s quickly do our own thing. “You can’t fall behind, right?”

After hearing Youngje’s words again, the children begin to move and conquer the dungeon.

Since Eugene started moving on his own, I thought something would happen.
