“….”

Speed Limit Removal was activated.

Just a moment ago, he had been cursing the developer, the system, everything he could think of…

…but now, he just stared blankly at the Cheat Tool.

After a while, as he came to his senses, he let out a deep sigh, brushing off his emotions.

“It’s still a cheat.”

It was extremely disappointing that it wasn’t Infinite Mana, which he needed the most right now, but…

Speed Limit Removal was still a cheat, so it must have an incredible effect.

He stroked his chin, pondering the effects and limitations of Speed Limit Removal.

“No… no, wait.”

Why bother thinking about it?

He could just test it himself.

He immediately switched Speed Limit Removal from ‘OFF’ to ‘ON’.

And since this was a hospital room, he decided to test it with telekinesis instead of a gun.

The water bottle on the table floated up.

The cheat’s effect hadn’t manifested yet.

He tried moving the water bottle up and down.

“Is this it? Why isn’t the effect…”

As he spoke… the water bottle he was controlling with telekinesis vanished.

At the same time, he felt his strength drain away, and in the blink of an eye, he found himself lying on the concrete floor instead of his bed.

Or rather, he was embedded in the floor.

“Wh-what… what was…?”

Before he could even finish the question…

…BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!

A deafening roar erupted from the hospital room, as if a bomb had exploded.

…The phenomenon occurred before he even heard the sound?

‘This is… a sonic… boom…?’

Thud.

◇◇◇◆◇◇◇

 

“…So you’re saying that you caused this disaster while experimenting with your new skill?”

“Yes…”

“….”

Kang Cheol-su closed his mouth.

An awkward silence filled the hospital room (he had been moved to a new one).

Yu-jin sweated nervously, avoiding Kang Cheol-su’s gaze.

Kang Cheol-su sighed tiredly and said,

“So, are you alright?”

“Yes… I’m fine.”

“Good, I’m glad you’re not hurt.”

Kang Cheol-su patted Yu-jin’s shoulder and got up from his chair.

“Well, I’ll be going then. Don’t cause any more trouble and just rest until you’re discharged tomorrow. Got it?”

“Yes… I understand.”

“Good, I trust you.”

Creak, click.

He had expected to be scolded for destroying a hospital room…

…but instead of scolding him, Kang Cheol-su just asked about his condition and left.

Yu-jin was both touched by Kang Cheol-su’s magnanimous heart and relieved.

He got up from the chair and sat on the bed, leaning against the headboard.

He looked at Aegis on his right index finger.

Aegis, which had been a dark red color, was now a faded gray, as if its color had been drained.

He checked the item information using the System.

【Incomplete Aegis (S-)】[Fatal Damage Absorbed][Destroyed]


…The item had been destroyed.

It had absorbed a fatal blow.

“So the shockwave from before was a fatal attack…”

…He would have died without Aegis?

He chuckled and removed Aegis from his finger.

It crumbled into dust, as if waiting for that moment.

He felt a chill run down his spine and hurriedly took out a new Aegis from his inventory, putting it back on his right index finger.

He double-checked the ‘ON/OFF’ status of Speed Limit Removal, even though he had turned it off.

Speed Limit Removal [ON / OFF]

“Haa…”

He let out a sigh of relief.

And now that his anxiety had subsided…

Growl.

His stomach growled, demanding food.

He got out of bed and cautiously opened the door, checking the hallway.

“…Okay, no one’s around.”

He closed the door again.

He opened the window and raised the bedside table.

He took steaming bowls of rice from his inventory and set them on the table.

The delicious aroma of spicy and sweet food filled the room.

‘Honestly, it doesn’t matter even if I get caught.’

He would be scolded later, after he finished eating.

He chuckled at the thought and took a bite of rice.

◇◇◇◆◇◇◇

 

The next day…

He was discharged from the hospital.

The doctor had suggested he stay another day, just in case, but he and all the other students of Class 1-A refused.

They had no reason to stay in a boring hospital with terrible food when all their physical and mana tests came back normal.

“Freedom!”

“Hey, we were only hospitalized for a day.”

“It felt that long.”

He agreed.

But personally, he hadn’t been bored.

He had spent the time planning how to prepare for and overcome the upcoming events, losing track of time.

The problem was… the food.

‘I got caught eating rice bowls after all…’

He had not only opened the window but also taken out air freshener (Spirit Energy Pills).

But it seemed like the nurse and the doctor had a talent for smelling, as they immediately realized he had eaten rice bowls.

And he was subjected to a lengthy lecture about how patients should eat healthy food, how outside food wasn’t allowed in the hospital, etc.

Then they should have made the food tastier.

They weren’t ordinary people; they were superhumans.

Why did they need to eat healthy food?

He sighed and shook his head.

Asuka and Seo-yeon approached him.

“Top Student, Top Student! Are you alright? Yesterday, there was a loud bang, and when I came out, your room was in ruins…”

Asuka checked his condition, mimicking the events of yesterday with words and actions.

“Lee Yu-jin, are you okay?”

Seo-yeon asked, her face full of concern, as she caressed his hand.

Just as she was about to subtly interlock their fingers…

“Is everyone discharged?”

Kang Cheol-su’s voice rang out.

Seo-yeon let out a disappointed “Ah…” and slowly released his hand.

Then, she very naturally stood next to him, close enough for their arms to touch.

Asuka glanced at Seo-yeon and then also stood close to Yu-jin, facing Kang Cheol-su.

He couldn’t help but be conscious of their actions.

But they all looked at Kang Cheol-su with indifferent expressions.

Some of them glanced at Yu-jin and his companions, but they just shook their heads and turned their attention back to Kang Cheol-su.

As if they were thinking, ‘Those two are at it again’.

Embarrassed by their reactions, he scratched his head and looked at Kang Cheol-su.

“…So, there won’t be any classes for a while.”

Even though he hadn’t heard the previous explanation, he could understand why there wouldn’t be any classes.

‘It must be because of the large number of instructors who died.’

Important practical training was conducted by dedicated instructors, but the other theoretical and outdoor classes were handled by the instructors who had died.

With the midterm evaluation over and no major practical training scheduled until summer break, there were only theoretical and outdoor classes left.

But with the recent attack resulting in the deaths of many instructors, most of those classes were now up in the air…

“So what are we supposed to do?”

Someone asked, and Kang Cheol-su scratched the scar on his forehead.

“Well, what should we do?”

Kang Cheol-su put his hand in his pants pocket and looked at Yu-jin.

He chuckled tiredly and continued,

“Should we do some Villain Response Training?”

All eyes turned to Yu-jin.

“”….””

Silence filled the air.

Yu-jin grinned and said,

“I’m always ready.”

He had played the roles of villain and Fallen countless times during the past five months.

He was not only used to the embarrassing moments, but he was completely indifferent to them now.

“Is that so? Then I’ll schedule some Villain Response Training.”

Kang Cheol-su took his hand out of his pocket.

Just as he was about to operate his smartwatch…

“No! We’ll train on our own!”

“That’s right! What we need now is not Villain Response Training, but physical training!”

“Of course, Villain Response Training can help us develop our vigilance against villains and improve our urban warfare, search, and trap response skills! But as our classmate said, what we need now is physical training!”

They were desperately resisting.

Yu-jin chuckled at their frantic pleas.

Kang Cheol-su seemed to feel the same way, as he chuckled and shook his head.

“Alright, alright, that’s enough.”

Kang Cheol-su operated his smartwatch.

A message was sent to everyone’s smartwatch, including his.

He checked the message and…

“A leave permit?”

“Instructor, why are we suddenly getting leave permits…?”

Kang Cheol-su loosened his tie and responded to the students’ questions,

“It feels a bit off to keep you all cooped up in the Academy when there are no classes until summer break. So I’m giving you leave permits to go get some fresh air.”

The students looked at Kang Cheol-su with gratitude.

“Ah, but don’t wander around outside too much. The other instructors might have something to say about it. So be moderate, you know what I mean?”

“”Yes!””

“Good, that’s all I wanted to say.”

Kang Cheol-su looked at each student’s face.

Then he spoke in a serious voice,

“Thank you all for surviving and coming back. You’ve all worked hard.”

He genuinely welcomed their return and expressed his gratitude.

The students looked at Kang Cheol-su with choked emotions.

Yu-jin spoke on behalf of everyone,

“Thank you too, Instructor. We’re grateful that you’re alive, and you’ve worked hard too.”

Kang Cheol-su grinned and nodded.

◇◇◇◆◇◇◇

 

“…Now, shall we properly test Speed Limit Removal?”

Following Kang Cheol-su’s dismissal order, Yu-jin was currently alone in a sparring room inside Class 1-A’s training ground.

He had a personal training room in his dorm, but he was too nervous to test it there, so he came to the training ground.

“The Grand Wizard’s special protective magic is in place here, so it should be fine.”

But just in case, he decided to set up some safety measures.

He took out a pile of Aegises in ring form from his inventory.

He then used telekinesis to place them at regular intervals around the sparring room, transforming them into shield form.

This should prevent any damage from leaking outside.

The Aegises would absorb any impact.

“With this, the safety measures are in place…”

He took out a mannequin, his test subject for the cheat experiment.

He placed the mannequin 50 meters away.

He then attached an Aegis in shield form to the mannequin’s torso.

He took out a training pistol and a magazine filled with rubber bullets.

He wanted to test it with live ammunition or Thunderbolt (A) right away, but he decided to start with the training pistol to understand the minimum effect first.

Click.

He loaded the pistol.

At the same time, he switched ‘Super Accuracy’ to ‘OFF’…

…and ‘Speed Limit Removal’ to ‘ON’.

He took a deep breath to calm his pounding heart…

Bang!

…and fired the pistol.

And the moment the bullet was fired…

Crack.

…the pistol vanished.

Or rather, it ‘disintegrated’.

But the bullet had definitely been fired.

He saw it with his own eyes, flying towards the mannequin.

But after 0.5 seconds, the bullet also vanished.

“…Gasp.”

At the same time, he felt the same sense of powerlessness as he had felt in the hospital room…

…and a massive shockwave erupted from the Aegis on the mannequin.

Following that…

…BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!

A deafening roar, like a bomb explosion, reverberated throughout the sparring room.

Thud.

One of his knees buckled, he felt completely drained of strength.

But unlike yesterday, he didn’t faint.

However, his head was spinning, and he just wanted to lie down.

With trembling hands, he opened his inventory and took out a Physical Enhancement Pill.

He practically shoved it into his mouth.

Gulp.

The pill’s unique fragrance and energy spread throughout his body.

His stamina, nearly depleted, began to replenish, as expected of an elixir that enhanced physical strength.

After regaining some strength, he sighed and straightened his knee.

He approached the mannequin and checked the Aegis’s information.

【Incomplete Aegis (S-)】[100,244/500,000]


“…100,000 damage from a rubber bullet?”

Then what about live ammunition and Thunderbolt (A)?

Wouldn’t it deal at least 400,000 damage or destroy the Aegis?

But the problem was whether those weapons, like the training pistol, would disintegrate before the cheat could take effect, and there was also the issue of stamina and physical strength.

“…I just pulled the trigger once…”

Not only was his stamina nearly depleted, but his index finger, which had pulled the trigger, was bruised black.

He couldn’t feel any pain because the Aegis had absorbed the damage, but the bruise meant that the cheat’s power had momentarily bypassed the Aegis’s effect and inflicted damage on his body.

“Haa… this cheat is a double-edged sword.”

The damage output was phenomenal.

No, it was beyond phenomenal, it was overwhelming.

But it also inflicted overwhelming damage on him.

“This means I can’t use it properly without Infinite Stamina and Infinite Health.”

The only saving grace was that the cheat didn’t activate during basic movements.

“I figured out the activation condition.”

The activation condition for Speed Limit Removal was when he attempted to do something beyond basic movements.

For example, using telekinesis like yesterday, or firing a gun like now.

“Then if I try to run…”

He assumed a running stance.

And the moment he tried to mimic running…

Shiver!

“….”

He felt a chill run down his spine.

It felt… like the Grim Reaper’s scythe was at his throat.

He immediately relaxed his stance.

The chilling sensation disappeared.

“…Did I almost die just now?”

Even though he was wearing the Aegis?

Well… just firing a gun caused it to disintegrate and the bullet to create a sonic boom.

Then what would happen if ‘Speed Limit Removal’ was applied to his body?

“Maybe I’d arrive in the afterlife in a flash…”

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and decided to test the range of Speed Limit Removal.

He closed his eyes and focused on his mana.

His mana recovery rate… was the same.

He didn’t even need to check his health recovery rate.

The bruise on his index finger was slowly fading, but that was due to his inherent regenerative ability.

The cheat’s effect wasn’t applied.

He came to a conclusion about the cheat.

“…This is a complete offense-focused cheat.”

An offense-focused cheat.

“Wait… what would happen if I activated Live Focus?”

He moved slower when the world slowed down.

Then what would happen if ‘Speed Limit Removal’ was applied on top of that?

“Hmm… could I become a human Sand—?”

He decided to test that later when he had the chance.

“…But before that, I need to solve the stamina issue, right?”

He sighed and opened the Cheat Tool.

[Selective Cheat Use Tickets: 3]

“I have to use it…”

He could save two more tickets and use them on Infinite Health, but…

He needed Infinite Stamina more than Infinite Health.

He could absorb damage with the Aegis or use health recovery potions, but there were no recovery potions for stamina and eating food in the middle of a fight was suicidal.

As for using Physical Enhancement Pills to recover, like he had done just now was too slow.

So he had no choice but to activate Infinite Stamina.

Would you like to activate ‘Infinite Stamina’? YES / NO

He had accidentally pressed it before when activating Infinite Items…

…but this time, he was pressing it for real.

He felt a strange sense of nostalgia as he pressed the YES button.

⚙ System Notification ⚙


3 Selective Cheat Use Tickets have been used.

‘Infinite Stamina’ has been activated.]

As soon as the activation message appeared, he switched ‘Infinite Stamina’ to ‘ON’.

His stamina, which had been slowly recovering, instantly… or rather, as if it had been full from the beginning… surged through his body.

He switched ‘Super Accuracy’ to ‘ON’ and transferred Thunderbolt to his left hand.

He loaded it with live ammunition and aimed it at the mannequin.

“Ah, before that.”

He needed to replace the Aegis.

Now that he had replaced the Aegis…

…he took a deep breath to calm his nerves.

And when he was somewhat calm, he pulled the trigger.

Rumble, BANG─!

The distinctive thunderclap of Thunderbolt reverberated.

Crack.

Once again, the pistol disintegrated and vanished like the training pistol.

But the bullet was fired without fail.

However, this time…

Flash!

The entire sparring room was engulfed in blue light.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!

All the Aegises he had placed as safety measures around the sparring room exploded.

Following that…

…CRACKLE, CRACKLE, CRACKLE, CRACKLE, CRACKLE!!

A deafening electric sound roared…

…and a giant, gaping hole appeared in the sparring room.

Molten red metal dripped from the edges of the hole.

And…

“…Huh?”

“…Ah.”

He made eye contact with a staff member through the hole.

The documents the staff member was holding fell to the ground.

And at the same time…

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG!!

The Academy’s siren blared.
