Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1)
Most of the facilities of Merkarva Academy were available for free. sphere The student cafeteria was cheaper than the fast food restaurants outside, and although there were different tiers for the dormitory, they did not charge any money.
Since the students were sometimes dispatched to dangerous missions under the name of work experience, the Academy gave utmost support for everything else.
In this academy where students were given a lot of free time, the training room which was open for all the students was the most recommended facility out of the entire campus.
The ‘training rooms’ was one of them.

The staff at the reception tilted his head after seeing my student ID card. riddle It was understandable for him to be confused because it would have been rare to see a freshman come to the training room on the first day of the admission.
“Yes, there… Freshman?”
“Is there a room?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
“Is there a weapon that you would like to borrow?”
After all, it was strange for freshmen to even know about the training room.
“What size… would you like?”
“Please make it XL.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
“Do you have a spear? alpha It’d be great if it was around 2 meters.”
“Do you have an elemental body as well?”
“So the normal one. airport There are all sorts of weapons in the weapon container, so please feel free to take them as you wish.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
It was the thought that it would be meaningless even if I were to take it.
The staff tilted his head. arctic He seemed curious about how I got to know about that, but there was another thought mixed into his gaze;
“An elemental body? auction Uhh… we do but…”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
– Kuwaang!
– Hwaruk!
– Kaang! atom Kang!
After changing into a more comfortable outfit, I picked up a spear and went inside, and was welcomed by a gym that was bigger than most stadiums.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
In other words, considering how rowdy the academy was due to the recent addition of freshmen, right now was the only chance to use such a luxurious room by myself. All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com
The training rooms looked like a tennis court where every student could train in their own rooms. amber It was wide open and was only divided by glass panes.
Waiting for me inside were all sorts of savage noises which were made by the students training themselves.
Of course, there weren’t enough rooms for all the students of the academy to use so you had to be quick on busy hours like the weekend.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
I only got to learn spearmanship after getting an official master introduced to me by Park, but that was already very late.
『You started too late, and you must train harder to make up for it.』
It seemed that I was unexpectedly quite talented at using spears.
I tried swinging the training spear which was relatively sharp. harbor In the previous iteration, I used to swing around a spear everyday.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
Placing the small egg I received from the front reception on the ground, I tapped it a few times.
“Wake up. meadow Time to get to work.”
This was an object that was possessed by an elemental. atlas In this world, elementals could manifest themselves in 2 ways.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
The second was by possessing objects like the one in front of me. legend In this guardian academy which encouraged students to pursue an intense training session, they provided various elemental bodies that were okay to be broken after a contract with the Spirit Realm.
The first was by materializing their bodies by receiving mana from an elementalist after an official contract. adapt In this case, they would add flesh to their astral bodies and allow me to see them as well.
– Hehe! arena Hehe!

– Vuiiing!
Along with the sound which resembled the chuckling voice of a child, wings began to appear behind it.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
“Oi, look at that.”
“What is it?”
The elemental body floated up with an intimidating set of noises.
The elemental possessing this egg was a common low-grade wind elemental. amateur But due to the physical body, it was as fast as a mid-grade elemental despite having no way of fighting back.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
“Don’t you start that at like the 2nd semester?”
I could feel the gazes of the senior students of the academy that were using the training room. alert The emotion concealed behind their voices was not surprise but mockery at the bravado of a junior.
“There’s a freshman training with an elemental body.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
It was because it would be meaningless to make students try something impossible.
“He probably heard it from somewhere.”
As they said, freshmen generally started training with an elemental body starting from the 2nd semester, and the reason for that was quite simple.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
The elemental body easily dodged my thrusted spear. august It wasn’t just a dodge either – after reading the trajectory of my spear, it shifted its body at the last second to dodge the spear with a gap of 0.1 centimeters to make fun of me.
“There are plenty of 2nd year students who find it hard against wind elementals. autumn What does that freshman think he is?”
“Huhp…!”
“See that.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
That was why elemental bodies were only used starting from the second semester – the superior cognitive ability and the overwhelming dodging ability complemented by the physical body itself were ridiculous. Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates.
Telling a 1st year student to catch that was the same as commanding a newborn baby to race against a bicycle. academy It might be possible for famous geniuses but it was so difficult that most average students would not even be able to reach it after becoming a 2nd year student.
I swung my spear again but both the timing and the speed fell short. abstract The elemental body easily dodged it to a corner and instead drove its body into my forehead. accent It was clearly playing around with me.
– Sheeek!
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
However, I wasn’t discouraged because this was just a test for me to retrieve the senses I had in my previous iteration.
“Kuht…!”
It had no offensive ability and thus didn’t hurt very much but the dejection left behind by the sense of defeat was not small.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
I at least wanted to improve my spearmanship back up to the basic level.
Thinking that, I was preparing myself to thrust the spear one more time when a bright voice echoed from the entrance and reached my ears.
‘If I was going to be discouraged by something like this, I wouldn’t have pledged to save the world.’
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
“You are quite early today. orbit Are you here for training?”
“Hi, everyone! atlas You are working hard as always!”
“Huh? armor Marie?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
“Nn nn! wizard There was something I’ve been doing during the holiday! absorb Oh right, do you want some snacks?”
“You must have been working hard. august Here you go. adapt A wet towel!”
Marie unhesitatingly opened her basket of snacks. airport Endlessly coming out of the basket were steamed potatoes, corn, sweet potatoes and seasonal vegetables.
“Uh, uhh… Thank you.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
“Junior. crystal I remember you. afford We saw each other in the morning, right?”
“It’s my first time seeing a freshman come to the training room on the first day!”
A 2nd year student of the Knight Department blushed while receiving the wet towel from Marie, who soon also walked up to me.
“Yes. zenith Senior Dunaref.”

“Do you want some steamed potatoes? arena I have sugar as well.”
‘Back in my days, we were busy playing!’ She said with a bright smile and naturally created a positive atmosphere in the blink of an eye.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
I was munching through it when Marie handed over a cup with water in a timely manner.
‘I have it this time,’ she added with a wide smile. alpha Even though I was a year below her and today was our first day seeing each other, she blew away the awkwardness in a single second like it was nothing.
As soon as I took the steamed potato from her hands, her white fingers gently sprinkled sugar on top of the potato. airport White sprinkles of snow fell on top of the yellow flesh of the hot and steamy potato. arena A sugared potato was a delightful dish.
“Thanks for the food.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
“Thank you.”
“Huh? arcade That’s…?”
That was when Marie spotted the elemental body and tilted her head.
“You need water right? academy Slow down.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
“Yes. auction Is there a problem?”
“Are you practicing with that?”
Seeing an elemental body which everyone was bound to know after going through the 1st year curriculum, Marie tilted her head.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
She shook her head in a fluster, seemingly worried about giving an impression that she was looking down on me.
Turning away from the entrance of my room… to be exact, after turning away from the crowd who was here to talk to Marie, I picked the spear back up when a new voice echoed from behind.
“N, no? anchor It seems you are trying very hard!”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
“Huh?”
It was too dignified for it to be a student’s voice, and there was an undisguisable sign of stubbornness in his old voice.
“Huh? athlete Instructor Haman?”
“Hooh.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
“Nice to meet you, Sir Instructor.”
“Korin Lork. arch Freshman, aren’t you.”
Professor Haman who had disheartened the freshmen at the entrance ceremony was glaring at me.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
Even though the academy was divided into two sectors: the Knight Department and the Magic Department, everyone teaching the students were called professors. ability Professor Haman was also a professor himself but he did not like that title because of how ink-stained that seemed.
Old Man Haman twitched his lips after being unexpectedly called an instructor rather than a professor.

“I’m practicing spearmanship. canvas I need to hit that.”
“Why are you practicing with an elemental body? apron Korin Lork.”
“Pfft…!”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
“Have you learned spearmanship before? attic What sect are you from?”
Marie tried to stop the senior students in concern that it might hurt my feelings, but she was also under the impression that I was doing something meaningless.
“Nnn… Guys, stop… It’s normal for him to not know how hard it is…”
The sunbaes behind Old Man Haman in the background bursted into sneers. crystal They appeared to be thinking of it as the bravado of an ignorant newbie.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
I could not reveal myself yet in front of Old Man Haman and the two old-timers of the academy. echo They might accidentally think of me as the underling of ‘that guy’.
“Just some Bagua back in my village…”
“Are you confident that you can pull it off?”
Bagua, the 8 Trigrams, was one of the combined martial arts you could learn as a 2nd year student. wizard Truth be told, that was what I learned as the foundation and the spearmanship I actually mastered was Six Integrated Spears and the Void, but that wasn’t something I could mention in front of Old Man Haman.

I came here because I needed to do it. shadow Old Man Haman seemed satisfied by my response and grinned.
“Whether I’m confident or not is not of importance. ability I’ll have to do it.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
“Hahal, that’s what I like to hear. accent I like that attitude! action I’ll give you 10 meal tickets!”
Old Man Haman showed his goodwill through food. crystal It was evident from how he liked taking his favorite students to restaurants.
“Come look for me if you succeed! amateur I shall give you a reward!”
He took out a bunch of meal tickets from his coarse leather purse. accent It seemed… that I had left a good impression on him.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
Even though having a meal with a stubborn old man would normally be a toil, he was surprisingly the type of person who did not interrupt during meals.
If I told him of my success, he would probably give me a voucher for a fabulous restaurant outside the campus. This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com. acoustic Even in the game, he used to give the voucher for a famous restaurant in Merkarva City as a reward for building rapport.
Besides, he was a gourmet who only ate expensive food.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
Old Man Haman left to take care of the training room while I stayed behind and stared at the elemental body. zenith The seniors were still scoffing at me while guaranteeing that I would fail and…
Marie, the only one who wished me good luck, went into her own room after leaving those words behind.
“Good luck…! alpha I hope you succeed!”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
***
An elemental body possessed by a wind elemental reacted to attacks by feeling the vibrations of the wind to discern the ripples of the air. arctic Because of that, it was a lot more agile and sustainable than the likes of the sense of sight.
This was the same even after possessing an elemental body.
Elemental bodies had no eyes. atlas Their world functioned under a different principle compared to the human world. armor They used mana to perceive the world unlike the five senses of a human.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
And thus, the elemental body of a wind elemental was the best practice target for knights and mages.
No matter how strong an attack was, it would be meaningless if it didn’t land on the target. shadow Hitting the elemental body of a wind elemental which excelled in avoiding attacks was proof of the accuracy.
It did not fall to feints and there was no need for it to move excessively, which was why it could last longer with the same amount of stamina.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
The elemental body dodged the spear with an intimidating noise from its wings. canvas Every time, it dodged a little bit to the side as if mocking the attacker and proved the nasty personalities of elementals.
– Vuinng!
But that in turn meant it was extremely difficult, because one would need techniques, hard work and a capable body for accuracy.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
With my stats which were below average, I had no choice but to embed everything into each of my strikes, and every failure added more frustration and fatigue to my body and made it heavier.
The body was the problem. riddle The body of Korin Lork was way too weak.
Both the Aura Rank and the Mana Rank were at the very bottom. amateur Because of the lack of aura, I couldn’t reinforce my body, and I also couldn’t use any skills that required mana because of the lack of mana.
‘I have the technique, but I don’t have the body to pull it off…’
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
“Why is he still doing that though?”
“Look at him. arctic He’s still doing it.”
“Probably too embarrassed to quit now.”
“He hasn’t even scraped it yet. athlete Can he even touch one of the wings?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
It sliced through the air. galaxy I averted my gaze looking for the vanished elemental body and turned back after feeling some weight on the tip of my spear.
Ignoring the derisive remarks, I thrusted my spear but it pierced through the thin air. amateur Facing the elemental body that didn’t even seem sincere in its escape anymore, I used the rotational power of my shoulders and my waist for an accelerated side sweep.
– Swish!
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
The elemental body rolled down from the tip of my spear and crashed into my face.
– Tumble tumble.
“Knng…!”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
Greater than the pain was the humiliation. shadow It was completely looking down on me.
‘I miss the times when I used to consume all sorts of stuff.’
If I was strong enough to be at the same level as how I was in my 2nd year before the regression, I wouldn’t have been humiliated to this level.

I used to have all sorts of miraculous medicine and potions while following Park Sihu around.
It was Marie. Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors.
My hands looked for a towel to wipe the rainfall of tears when a wet towel was placed on top of my hand.

The girl with turquoise hair said after crouching next to me as I laid down with my limbs out wide on the ground.
“Is it very hard?”
“Are you tired?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
Marie floated a bitter smile while handing over a cup of water that was created through magic.
“Huu… Yes, it is.”
“Huu… Huu…… No.”
“It’s alright to take some rest. adapt You’ve been working hard enough already.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
“Are you heading off for your meal? apron I hope you enjoy your meal. album I’ll leave after trying a bit more.”
“…Why?”
She appeared to be pitying me for receiving the flood of scoffs and sneers from the seniors. apron Marie was the only one here who wasn’t sneering at me.
“…Is it because you’re embarrassed? aluminum It’s fine. galaxy No-one’s going to say anything. alien You’ve been working hard. audit You will make it next time.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
She wasn’t wrong.
There was a look of increasing doubt and puzzlement on her face.
“You’re quite tired, aren’t you? arena It’s just not working out for you right now, junior. antique You’ll be able to do it next time. apple You can just give it another shot later.”
“That’s not it.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
I thought back on what I was like 3 years ago.
And it was also true that I was being stubborn.
My body was heavy like it was a metal piece. apron My arms carrying the spear wobbled and there was blood flowing out of my ripped palms.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
But back then, it was alright.
3 years ago, when I first possessed this body, I would have floundered my arms around while barely chasing after the elemental body.
3 years ago, there was Park Sihu.
Compared to that, my current self was probably a lot better off because I could at least show some signs of spearmanship.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
“It’s not late to give up after you’ve tried until the very end, right?”
But not anymore.
There was no Park Sihu – I killed him. autumn Now, I had to do everything by myself. academy I couldn’t stop from something like this.
We had a player, and a system window. advance There were also potions from the crafting window as well as the skills tab.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 9: Korin Lork (1) by Indra Translations.
Analyze.
There was hope. silence I was fairly used to it now and… there were 4 hours left until the curfew.
Analyze and attack.
Both now and before, that was the only thing I was good at.
