I Became a Mafia in the Academy

Chapter 284

As we walked out, there was a roar of noise that seemed to echo through this large stadium. Our first game had finally arrived.

-Yes, ‘the' game is finally here!

-And is it really "his" match?

-Yes, it's the turn of Mr. Jegal Hyun-ho, the creator of the game that is the foundation of this tournament, Bush War Land!

-Ah, he’s the creator! And he and his teammate have quite the specs, don't you think?

-Yes. I checked the list, and he has more specs than I could have ever imagined. Can you believe it? He's an elder of the Aura Order, and he's the top of the first year of the Seoul Hero Academy!

-What a beautiful combination! He’s a great student and has a great hobby.

-Hahaha! The organizers of this tournament, Silverman Shoes, are also looking forward to this match, so let's get our throats burning! Let's get the match started!

-We'll do it!

A very different start to the match than any other.

For anyone else, that would have been a lot of pressure, but for us, it was an appetizer before the real party started.

Our opponents were a duo from South America.

Judging by their makeup and outfits, they were probably practicing voodoo.

"It's an honor to meet the creator of……."

The opponent first greeted him in English. Jegal Hyun-ho responded with a familiar nod and picked up the card, a sign to get right into the game.

He should be offended, but for some reason, his opponent looks happy as he mumbles, "Yes, he’s the creator of this damn game……!”

Is this normal in this world?

The battlefield unfolds with the sound of colorful broadcasters.

The battlefield is……a map with a mix of forests, plains, and hills.

"Senior, the plan is still the same, right?"

"That's right. It's our first game, so it's important to raise expectations for us."

Jegal Hyun-ho didn't just want to win. He wanted this dream-like scene to last forever.

This match is probably being broadcast live in the waiting room right now.

"Let's go out with a bang!"

The one thing we can do to make sure we don't give away our plan, but still show off our skills.

"Yes, 100G weapons. Purchased."

We put all our money into weapons.

* * *

-Wait, they used all 100G of the money from the first round to buy weapons?!

-Eugene Han and Jegal Hyun-ho! They didn't recruit any troops, they just bought a single 100G weapon!

-Commentator, what do you think, were they influenced by Pendragon’s tactics from the previous match?

-Of course not! It's a different tactic altogether, because it's more like a common sense tactic, whereas if you use all 100G to buy gear, it's still balanced, and still a common sense tactic, but it's just like a weapon-obsessed entertainment pick?!

-Is there a big difference?

-Yes, the general will be dead in a heartbeat the moment they allow an attack!

-Yet they still pulled that tactic out…….

-Yes, that's where their determination to win without taking a single hit comes into play. Let's play!

The opaque curtain covering the stadium begins to lift, and the cameras around us begin to capture the action on the field.

[Huh? Where's the back team military?]

[Are they trying to do a one-man show like Ray Pendragon did earlier?]

[He's not even wearing armor. No, isn't that a 100G weapon?]

Eugene walks resolutely toward the hundreds of troops, carrying only a spear as tall as he is.

The other side was equally bewildered by the absurdity of the scene.

"……This is ridiculous. How dare you do such a thing right from the start?"

As the general character slowly approached the black formation, the South American team started to move their troops.

The spearmen begin to form a U-shaped curve.

The long wall of spears was a spearhead to lead the charging enemy to hell.

"Show me, junior, show me."

"Shall I?"

The soldiers approached very quietly and deliberately, like a wild beast approaching its prey.

Eugene pointed his spear at them, then slowly spread his legs.

"Then I'll go."

One step, two steps.

Slowly forward.

Starting with small steps, Eugene gained momentum, and soon he was running at breakneck speed.

"Spear up!"

As if he's been waiting for this, his opponent raises his spear just before impact to form a barrier.

"Bingo."

Eugene leaps up, and with a tremendous leap, he clears the first wall.

-No! What a ridiculous play, how is this even possible!

"What the……."

The other team's faces twisted in disbelief at the ridiculous situation in front of them.

Bush War Land is a strategy game, and as such, it tends to emphasize flat tactics. This is partly due to the fact that the game's piece controls are very difficult to control in the first place.

But now, I've introduced "three-dimensional" maneuvers!

Realizing that the gallop was meant to overcome the formation, they immediately order the formation to turn around.

It was impossible for the soldiers in the dense formation to turn around so easily.

My spears rained down on the defenseless soldiers.

Was it because it was an expensive spear? The enemy soldiers were swept away by a simple spear strike.

The unexpected onslaught caused the enemy soldiers to urgently order their arrows to be fired, but Eugene had already penetrated the second line and was in front of the archers' noses.

"Ignite!!!"

This is where the soldier's skill kicks in, and the arrowheads catch fire.

Ignite, a military skill that adds fire element to a soldier's attack.

The choice is made to burn the surroundings to prevent Eugene's approach but it's a clear miss.

They drew Eugene into the center of the formation in the first place and because of this,

-Ah! What is this! They're dying! Only Black Team's soldiers are dying!

-Wow, he’s dodging all the arrows in that mess.

The Black Team's soldiers, scrambling around in the mess, were slowly dwindling as they fell victim to arrows fired by their own team, and the ones that did reach Eugene were all…….

"He spun his spear and blocked the arrows? I didn't see any skill effects."

The arrows were being deflected by the spear spinning towards the sky.

While training with the members of the board game club, I thought, "If physics works as it is, why not do something like this?” What started as a comment was unfolding in Eugene's hands.

In short, the strategy he had been talking about was actually working.

[Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy]

[No, that's just the controls? How fast do you have to spin the spear?]

[The spear doesn't have to spin that fast. What's really important is the aura control to maneuver those detailed movements……He’s an Aura Elder, crazy]

[GOATGOATGOATGOAT]

[GOATGOATGOATGOAT]

Not to mention the chat window is heating up at the sight.

-Do you see that beautiful figure deflecting the arrows with no skill, only physicality? You're watching the next evolution of Su Warren!

-Ahhhhh! Team South America! At this rate, we're going to lose!

-Eugene doesn't slow down and throws himself at the enemies!

Deciding that further arrow attacks were pointless, the enemy team's soldiers gritted their teeth and ordered their archers.

"All archers, take up your positions!"

In response, the archers put their bows away and drew their swords.

Normally, this was a technique reserved for when they'd used up all their arrows, but with their lines completely breached, there was no answer.

All they could do was slow down his insane pace a bit to soften the blow.

At the same time, a message popped up announcing the activation of the Black Team skill.

[Activate No Retreat.]

A skill that increases the defense of the general and the soldiers around him by 20% for a short period of time.

"I will stop you!"

A black team general with a sword and shield in each hand shouted as he charged towards Eugene.

"Rough Cut."

Rough Cut──

The Black Team General heard unintelligible words, and was forced to watch as his character was decapitated with a single blow.

"Boo, I'm pretty sure he used a sword, but what the–"

"That's a five-unit move."

The efficiency was atrocious, but it was still 100G.

That's enough money to hire five units of spearmen.

"Now that we've defeated the general, the soldiers' morale must be plummeting, right?"

Eugene swings his spear at the archers who have drawn their swords.

Kwagaga Kagak────

Kigigigigigigig────

The soldiers are swept away with a single spear strike, like vegetables in a blender.

Even when the spearmen came up from behind and surrounded him, Eugene's health gauge didn't decrease by a single percent.

"Ma, it doesn't make sense, how did he manage to not get wounded in all that fighting?"

"It's simple if you think about it."

They looked at the white team general under Eugene’s control and muttered in disbelief.

It was Jegal Hyun-ho who answered their question.

He was already grinning from ear to ear, clutching a fan from nowhere.

"Bush War Land hides many important details in small places. The weight of the armor, for example. A character's speed varies greatly depending on the weight of the armor he wears."

Hidden rules that aren't in the rulebook.

"Even if that's true, that's not it! Swords and spears are flying everywhere, what happened to that?"

"Oh, that?"

As if that's the real thing. He lowered his fan gently, the corners of his mouth twitching upward as he spoke, moving his lips slowly as if to say, "Listen.”

-Mooving, moving, moving, Eugene's character, stripped of all his gear and wearing only cloth, is going crazy!

-Is he able to move like that because he reached the peak of his Aura Control? Is this the ability of an Aura Order Elder? It's amazing! It's phenomenal! Just like a real Awakened! Eugene's general is dodging all the attacks!

-It's crazy! It's really crazy! The opponent's mind can't help but be torn apart!

It was shocking to see him dodge all of the slashing, swinging, and clinging attacks with just control and movement.

The aftermath was felt in the commentary and chat.

[Wow, that's crazy. Isn't this supposed to be a regular board game? What kind of puppet moves like that?]

[They're actually Aura-controlled puppets, so the control varies, but that's really something to applaud…….]

[Moo ]

[ Bing]

[ Moo ]

[ Bing]

[ Moo ]

[ Bing ]

[I'm going to buy this game right now. I'm going to buy it.]

That viewership has long since surpassed five figures due to all the publicity and advertising.

It was safe to say that they were spreading the word about the new game.

"No……way."

In just three minutes, the soldiers of the black team were wiped out by a single general with no equipment and only a weapon.

The general with whose clothes were completely torn off raised his spear to the sky over a field of black corpses to announce his victory.
