I Became a Mafia in the Academy

Chapter 282

There were tons of mini-games in CS.

Chess, Go, Backgammon, Shogi, and other classics, as well as board games that are unique to CS.

Unsurprisingly, they became cult favorites among players. Some have even asked why they are not released separately. The board game I’m going to be practicing, Bush War Land, was one of the most beloved of them all.

‘If things had gone the way they were supposed to, Jegal Hyun-ho’s Bush War Land would have been a huge success, and the creator would have become famous for another game.’

It’s a game that’s popular now, and it’s no wonder, since the motif of the game was ‘bush war land’.

Although the game is currently only popular among enthusiasts, it has enough charm to take the world by storm in the future.

“I think we need to try to get it together first. Do you know how to play?”

“Sure. I’m better than you think.”

He smirks at my comment.

“Well, then let’s just go out and make it simple with the guys outside. Follow me.”

With that, he opened the door and walked over to the two guys who were still outside.

“Huh, president, I heard you’re working on the bushland DLC this time. Is it finished?”

“Roughly. It’s called Bush War Land. What do you think?”

“What? Bush War Land? Well, it’s okay, but……does Eugene over there know how to play?”

“Yeah, he’s good at it. Anyway, me and Eugene will team up, so you two can do it.”

He replied nonchalantly and took out a large box from one of the shelves.

On its surface, the words ‘Bush War Land’ were written in fancy Korean characters.

“What?! No, I mean, how can I win against one of the game creators?”

“I’m just trying to see how good Eugene is, so I’ll play moderately.”

“Ah……I think you’ll lose, but it’ll be fun since it’s been a while. Let’s get started, shall we?”

After opening the box and taking out the folded field, Jegal Hyunho slowly begins to energize it.

The field automatically unfolds and expands like a large table, and a terrain begins to form on top of it.

“How about I take care of the military?”

“Yes, because I’m going to be the general.”

The rules of the game weren’t too difficult.

The terrain changes automatically from board to board. The “soldiers” give orders to the general and his soldiers, and the general follows the orders and controls the general’s pieces.

A particularly important ability for generals is the ‘control’ ability.

Unlike the soldiers, who can only issue orders automatically, the General’s horse had to be controlled by the player.

“The terrain is pretty shitty this time.”

Black was the opponent, white was us.

“Anyway, I made it, but I was lucky.”

Our opponent had forested terrain on either side of the board, favorable for ambush and stealth, stretching all the way to the center, while we had flat ground.

If we wandered into the wrong area, we were bound to be ambushed by the opponent.

“Junior. Do you have a favorite?”

“I’ll leave it up to you.”

The characteristic of this game is that instead of being played in 3 rounds, there is a set amount of money for each round.

In the first round, the amount was 100G.

The prices of the classes were as follows

Spearmen: 20G

Archers: 25G

Swordsmen: 20G

Cavalry: 30G

Armored Cavalry: 50G

The general had to buy classes based on the terrain and the characteristics of the opponent, but…….

“Eugene, you said you use aura, right?”

“Yes.”

“Then I won’t buy any troops, I’ll just reinforce you. Is that okay?”

“What? All of it?”

“Everything.”

With a smile on his face, Jegal Hyun-ho diligently set up the cards.

The general’s piece, standing still in white, begins to shimmer and change.

First, a horse appears and the general begins to ride it, and then armor begins to appear around him, changing his appearance.

The Unyielding Sword is in his hands.

Although it’s a 100G weapon, it’s not much to write home about, but its destructive power in the first round was unimaginable for someone who hadn’t invested in a class.

“Are you sure about this?”

I move my aura to nudge the general’s horse.

Jegal Hyun-ho, who had been watching impassively, nodded in approval.

“I’m familiar with their tricks. Since it’s the first round, they’ll probably go with the most standard combinations.”

2 archers, 1 spearman, 1 swordsman and equipment with the remaining G, it was a well-balanced investment with a decent amount of crafting.

“The most expensive part of your arsenal is the horse, which will be in charge of mobility. We’ll move it towards the woods at the start so they can’t see us.”

“And then we’ll take care of the archers?”

“I see. Well, I think they’re almost ready to go, so let’s put in a Ready.”

Jegal Hyun-ho placed the card so that the red button was visible.

At the same time, a voice that had been blocked by the magic reaches the other side.

“Hey! Where is the person playing the game? Why don’t you get ready soon?”

The other party, who was having a tactical meeting, grumbled at our urgency and prepared to start.

“We’re having a meeting! President, show some manners!”

“Yeah, I don’t know about that. I’m good at provocation.”

Chuckling, Jegal Hyun-ho waits for the start.

Due to the forest terrain, the other side’s troops were not yet visible.

[Opening Battle]

The opening text finally came to mind.

At the same time, I controlled my horse and spurred it into a gallop, diligently running toward the forest on the left.

I was able to reach the forest much faster than my infantry-oriented opponent, and after entering the forest on the left, I followed the path to the opponent’s formation.

“Ha, what kind of forest are you running through at that speed? Are you crazy?”

Jegal Hyun-ho was surprised by my speed. Normally, cavalry can’t run fast because of the dense trees, but it’s a trick that can be seen because the player can control the general’s horse.

Is it because I have improved my aura control skills? The general’s horse moved as freely as my own body.

“There they are, the archers.”

He grins after hearing what I say and unfolds a feather fan that I don’t know where he got it from.

He set down a card in his hand and called out.

“Onslaught.”

The general’s skill is activated, and the horse’s speed begins to increase.

A blue glow slowly rises around the general’s horse but as if he wasn’t finished, he immediately activates another skill.

“Ten Thousand Enemies.”

It was a kanji word for a person who can take on ten thousand enemies alone and a skill that buffed only the general’s horse.

The buffs from both skills instantly made my character gallop faster and stronger. The horse was digging into the back of an enemy in an instant.

The ridiculousness of the scene left my opponent in awe.

“Eh? What is it, why are you digging in from behind──?”

Like an elephant charging at a flock of sheep, the general’s horse under my control began to move forward, sweeping away everything in its path.

“Are you crazy──Did you really spend all your money on a warhorse?”

The other person asks, exclaiming at the ridiculous sight.

“Our junior Eugene’s aura control must be so good. In this version, wouldn’t he probably be no different from Lu Bu?”

──Although, it’s a board game.

My general’s horse had already wiped out two battalions of archers and was slaughtering the next target, the swordsmen but my opponent wasn’t taking it lying down.

“Ha, but spearmen are the enemy of cavalry, and a mere general’s horse won’t be able to catch them!”

The board game club members change their battle lines and begin to surround themselves with spearmen.

My opponent is right, if I charge at the spearmen, my general’s horse will get blown away and take a lot of damage.

But

“Eugene, get off the horse.”

“Yes, sir.”

The general’s horse slaughters the sword soldiers and dismounts in an instant.

The general’s began to walk towards the spearmen who were still in formation.

This is not cavalry, is it?

“I only trust your control.”

“Don’t worry, with the spearmen’s support, we can win.”

The enemy general, who was standing in front of the spearmen, pointed his sword at them.

My opponent immediately puts down his cards and activates his skill.

“Momentum.”

A skill that increases the attack power of all allies.

A green buff radiated from the general’s horse, enveloping the spearmen and boosting their stats.

It was clear they were going to get me somehow…….but I wasn’t about to let them get me.

I moved my general’s horse to point his sword at the other general and activated the skill I had prepared.

“Ikigito.”

A skill that forcibly challenges the opposing general to a confrontation.

“I refuse!”

“Well, of course.”

He could refuse, of course.

The scarlet line that was meant to connect them is severed but this was my trick.

What I was really aiming for was the secondary effect.

[Penalty!]

[Black team members: 101]

[White team: 1]

[Black team’s soldiers are agitated.]

[Black team’s morale drops significantly.]

The enemy’s morale is greatly reduced by the penalty of not accepting the challenge from the enemy, who has only one man left.

In an instant, the enemy’s formation begins to unravel.

I seize the opportunity and charge straight into the center of the spearmen’s formation.

“Holy shit……!”

The enemy general steps forward to block my path.

I take control of the general’s horse, gently pushing past him, and manage to get all the way into the center of the formation.

My opponent’s soldiers are already heavily demoralized.

With just a few swings of my sword, the formation begins to completely collapse.

I hear a sigh from the other side.

“……This isn’t going to work. GG, surrender.”

The other team finally surrenders.

“One-man army. I thought it was only theoretical, so I didn’t know if it would work, but here it is.”

The other team mumbles in disbelief. In response, Jegal Hyun-ho also let out a laugh and said,

“I didn’t think it would work like this either. Are you a real monster? I asked you to play, but I didn’t think you’d finish the game by yourself.”

“I told you, I’m better than you think.”

“Well……let’s move on to round two, shall we?”

The opposing seniors sigh as Jegal Hyun-ho prepares to set up.

“Oh, you’re just going to strengthen the juniors again.”

“I won’t do it this time, so try to block it well.”

“Seriously, you’re really going to do that?”

In the second round, both sides start to reorganize using the 200G they were given.

This time, he chose to buy an armored cavalry after giving me only basic weapons.

He then spends all of his remaining money on improving the skill of the armored cavalry.

“I’ll do the ordering. You use your skills at the right time to tie up the opponent.”

“Yes, sir.”

Round 2 began.

Once again, we rushed into the opponent’s formation, and we were able to catch them in the center before they could reach the forest formation.

If they were ordinary armored cavalrymen, they would have been exhausted halfway through the battle, but these are the most skilled cavalrymen following behind me.

They don’t get tired just from this.

“Damn it, president, you’re really dirtying up the game!”

This time, my opponent’s soldiers are wiped out like an eraser, thanks to Jegal Hyun-ho’s skillful cavalry control.

As I stared at the scene in disbelief, I was convinced that I had come to the right place.

“Senior. It looks like we’re a better match than I thought.”

“You thought so too, junior? What a coincidence.”

The match is coming to an end, with the game virtually completely in our favor.

“I guess winning the tournament won’t be too hard after this.”

“Well, I heard the student council president is playing in this tournament.”

As I mutter that, watching my opponent get swept away, Jegal Hyun-ho snaps his head around.

“What? Ray Pendragon. That asshole’s playing?”

“Oh, didn’t I tell you?”

Boom.

Jegal Hyun-ho’s fist clenches hard.

“I’ve been meaning to give that bastard a bite sometime, but this is a good opportunity, right?”

From his perspective, who was recently attacked by the student council, the student council is his enemy.

“I guess we’ll have to come up with a new plan.”

Jegal Hyun-ho’s eyes shine.

As expected, he had the right person.

“Ray Pendragon. You’ll lose.”

There was a cold hatred in his voice as he said that.
