Legendary Hero is an Academy Honors Student – 374



374.

Tap-tap-tap-

After dressing up the group entered the underground casino Shadow and stood at the top of the stairs.

Ugh-!

Chelsea muttered as she watched the stairs moving down automatically by the magic stone.

“It looks like you have a lot of money. “If you look at how it was made (starting from the entrance stairs).”

“That’s right. “Look at the ceiling.”

Carl looked at the ceiling and stuck out his tongue.

The ceiling sparkled as if it had been spread with gold and expensive-looking jewels were studded like stars.

The magic stone lamp emitting bright light between the jewels caught the eye.

“You’re showing off that you have money so blatantly that it almost makes you look vulgar.”

“I agree.”

Juen nodded at Betty’s words.

“Leo what are you thinking like that?”

Chloe asked Leo who was deep in thought while standing in the lead.

“I was thinking about this underground casino.”

To be exact it was Rhodia’s treasure trove located below here.

According to Larel there is a labyrinth on the way to Rodia’s treasure trove.

‘They said this casino was built on top of the labyrinth.’

When asked by Leo what was inside the treasure chest Larel shook his head.

‘I don’t know exactly what Rhodia left there. However I know that it is a strategy reward obtained in the world of heroes like Cometes of Seirun.’

Leo thought of Cometes sleeping in his subspace.

The strongest magic wand in existence that contains both the magic power of Luna and Seilun.

Since it was an item left behind by Rodia the leader of the heroes of the Gaebyeok I did not know that it might be equivalent to the Cometes.

‘First of all to get to the labyrinth you need to pass through this casino.’

Rattling-!

Tap-tap-tap-tap-

The stairs stopped.

Leo and his group walked down the hallway.

Unlike the extravagant entrance there was not a single magic lamp to be seen and only the door at the end of the hallway from which light leaked was visible.

“Welcome to Shadow.”

“welcome.”

Those guarding the door greeted the group and opened the door.

Woe!

Everyone frowned slightly at the bright light.

And everyone opened their mouths at the sight that unfolded inside.

The interior beyond the door was reminiscent of the lobby of a social venue.

In the hall beyond the lobby a beautiful melody played by a band played and neatly dressed waiters walked back and forth with elegant steps.

“The atmosphere is different from what I expected.”

Chloe tilted her head.

Those who were nervous at the mention of an illegal casino looked relaxed.

Leo approached the counter in the lobby.

“Hello customer.”

A woman in a suit standing at the counter lowered her head with a friendly smile.

“If you have anything that can prove your identity could you put it on the counter?”

At the words of the information staff the group took out Lumern student ID cards from their arms.

The information staff who received the student ID card looked at it carefully.

Then he reached under the desk and placed nine small boxes on the counter.

“In order Luke Austin Betty Juen Illyana Carl Chelsea and Chloe. And it’s Leo’s.”

The receptionist placed each student’s ID card on the box and smiled.

The group looked puzzled and picked up the box then took their student ID cards and opened the box.

Click-

“card?”

“It looks like platinum?”

“Wow is that diamond stuck here?”

“Only the class president is a different color. “The class president’s gun is Black.”

“This is our store’s membership card. All nine people were confirmed to be Lumern students. Luke Austin Betty Juen and Illyana are Platinum level and Carl Chelsea and Chloe are Diamond level.”

Everyone looked amazed at those words.

“What is the VIP level?”

In response to Austin’s question the receptionist spoke with a smile on her face.

“There are bronze silver gold platinum and diamond levels.”

After hearing that explanation Illyana looked slightly shocked.

“A question. Why isn’t the class president in the class? And I’m platinum so why are they diamonds?”

“We basically give platinum status to hero officer students. “Afterwards we will upgrade you to a higher level based on your reputation and school performance.”

“Then why is she a diamond?”

What Illyana was pointing at was a knife.

“Carl Thomas has a history of conquering the world of God’s blacksmiths so we gave him a diamond grade.”

“Pfft… Illyana. “Among the second years you are the only one on the same level as the first years.”

“profit! On the topic of knives!”

“Uh-huh! How dare you! “Does Platinum use such words carelessly towards Diamond?”

“you! thereupon!”

Illyana got angry as she saw the knife attacking her and attacked her.

Carl ran away from Illyana and scolded her obnoxiously.

“Take it!”

Illyana took off the heels she was wearing.

The heel which flew like a boomerang hit Karl’s temple exactly.

“The reason Leo Plov is not in the VIP level is because he is someone we do not dare to rank. We refer to these people as ‘Kings.’”

“What kind of people get King status?”

When Juen asked with a curious look on his face the receptionist who thought for a moment smiled brightly.

“King status is granted to those who have status and status comparable to that of the king of a country.”

Everyone gaped but Chelsea and Chloe nodded in understanding.

“Well he’s the student council president of Rumeren.”

“His external status is comparable to that of the head of a famous heroic family or the king.”

Leo asked leaving the two people shrugging their shoulders.

“So what’s the benefit of getting a high grade?”

When Leo waved his card and asked the receptionist smiled.

“There are areas where each VIP level can enter our store. In the case of King level it can be said that there are no areas that are off-limits.”

“is it so? “Then can I go underground?”

“underground…? “This is underground right?”

“I’m talking deeper underground than here.”

Leo tapped the floor with his toe.

The receptionist who had widened her eyes at those words then smiled.

“It is difficult for me to comment on this inquiry. We recommend that you meet with our store manager.”

“What should I do to have an interview?”

“You can pay 100 million points in one lump sum with points used at our store.”

“Is it possible to exchange shillings for points?”

“yes. it’s possible. “One point is one shilling.”

“Huh?”

“Suck?!”

“Then… 10 million golings?!”

It couldn’t have been an astronomical amount.

The fatigue recovery potion sold by Carl costs 5 shillings per bottle.

And 1 gouling costs 10 shillings.

Everyone looked shocked.

“Any other way?”

“There is also a way to earn points by participating in events taking place at our store.”

“Are you telling me to gamble?”

“That’s a good idea but our store has a ton of ways to earn points other than gambling. “This place is in the shadow of the world.”

Everyone swallowed their dry saliva at the dangerous-looking smile.

Carl crossed his arms.

“The amount we received as a subsidy was 2000 golings per person… so we really have no choice.”

After speaking up to that point Carl looked at Chelsea and Zuen.

“What are you looking at?”

“Can’t we borrow the resources of rich girls?”

“Do you know whose dog’s name is 10 Million Goling?”

Carl scratched his head at Chelsea’s words.

“but.”

It was a time for everyone to worry.

“Let’s go inside first and enjoy. VIP customers are paid 10000 points for Platinum level 20000 points for Diamond level and 50000 points for King level.”

Everyone’s eyes widened at those words.

“Can I exchange that money and leave?”

“Of course.”

Everyone clicked their tongues as they watched the receptionist answer cheerfully.

Just by entering this place people easily obtained money that ordinary people cannot easily access.

“Isn’t it a good idea to ask other students for help?”

“That is true but… I doubt whether they will actually admit it. “In this place the master will be the law.”

Betty shook her head at Luke’s words.

“Let’s go in and think about it. “I’m hungry because I didn’t even eat breakfast.”

Illyana said while looking at the buffet set up in the hall.

“Okay let’s eat first and think!”

***

The buffet set up in the hall was full of all kinds of high-quality food.

The waiters busily walked around offering students fine wine and champagne.

As Illyana tried to take it Chloe narrowed her eyes.

“We are students. “No alcohol.”

“no way! You already came to this place! “It’s so cheesy!”

When Illyana protested Chloe spoke even more strongly.

“No more. “We are here on a mission.”

At those words Illyana had no choice but to put down her wine glass.

“Juen.”

“Tch you’re like a normal person.”

Juen was caught secretly drinking a glass of champagne by his classmate Betty.

Meanwhile Leo and Carl returned from the casino.

“Wow this place is a gambling place.”

“What do you mean?”

“look. “There’s no one in the hall.”

Although the atmosphere was one that any noble would enjoy there was no one in the hall.

“They’re all playing games at the casino.”

Carl stuck out his tongue.

“Looking at them they all seem to be of quite high status… I am fascinated by them. You guys never show your cards. “I’m asking you to lend me some money.”

Carl wrinkled his face as he remembered the old gentleman begging for him.

It was a very uncomfortable experience.

“So did you find out how to earn points?”

“huh.”

Carl crossed his arms.

“What is it?”

“arena.”

“what?”

“This casino has an arena. Those who work hard make money there.”

“what? It’s simple. “Because we are Lumern students.”

Illyana said as if everything went well.

“No not at all.”

“what?”

“There are ‘rules’ in this casino arena. Basically ‘no mana usage’. “Attach a mana restraint.”

Illyana paused at those words.

“You don’t know the other person either. You can fight with other guests or you can fight with demons or monsters. And they die often.”

Everyone looked tense at those words.

“Anything else?”

“There is a labyrinth escape relay and chess.”

“If it’s chess there’s Chloe.”

Chelsea looked at Chloe.

She is the chess champion of Lumern.

“There must be something dangerous in the underworld.”

Leo crossed his arms.

“First let’s find out more about this casino. “If you can’t decide giving up is another option.”

‘Next time I can break in alone.’

As a Lumerun student I came to explore the hero dungeon.

And there is no hero dungeon here.

If that’s the case you can just let go and go to the forest of suspicious monsters.

For Leo Rhodia’s treasure trove was not urgent right away.

Everyone nodded at Leo’s words.

“Let’s meet again in the hall in an hour.”

Luke raised his hand at Leo’s words.

“Senior what should I do with my points?”

“If it is necessary to collect information it wouldn’t be a bad idea to actively use it. or not….”

Leo glanced inside the casino.

“Why don’t you try playing a game?”

“Hey Leo! “You’re gambling.”

The students looked perplexed at the unexpected words.

Leo chuckled at that.

“Since I’ve already come here it wouldn’t be a bad idea to experience a variety of things.”

“Wow that sounds like a mean old man.”

Chelsea booed slightly.

Leo grinned and ruffled Chelsea’s hair.

“As a hero I think recognizing the darkness of the world is also learning.”

***

Leo parted ways with the group and walked around the inside of the casino.

All kinds of games were being played under bright lights.

Cheers and screaming cries erupted.

This was an abyss where one could glimpse human nature and essence.

Tap-tap-tap-

Leo who was walking suddenly raised his head.

‘I feel like you’re watching me?’

I could feel gazes on the magic stones embedded in various places on the ceiling.

It’s probably a ‘surveillance’ magic stone.

I felt eyes watching me through the magic stone.

Normally it is almost difficult to feel gaze through magic.

However Leo’s senses were so keen that they were incomparable to others.

Leo who was walking stopped in front of a room.

There was a golden crown on the black door.

Prisoners who appeared to be gatekeepers blocked Leo’s path.

“This is a space where only ‘King’ can enter.”

At those words Leo took out a card from his pocket.

The gatekeepers who confirmed this bowed their heads and opened the door.

Leo entered the room and narrowed his eyes.

Under the dim lighting I could see a silhouette at first glance.

I didn’t really feel like I was popular.

“welcome. customer.”

At that time I heard a sonorous voice next to me.

‘This voice…’

There was a subtle murderousness in the voice.

When I turned my head there was a girl wearing a black rabbit ear headband with her head down.

“I am Rabbit here to serve guests….”

The outfit of the girl who looked up was strange.

He had blue eyes reminiscent of a lake.

And pure white hair.

Thanks to this the black rabbit ear headband stood out even more.

However what stood out even more were the ‘cat ears’ with the headband attached.

The girl in the black rabbit costume stiffened as she looked at Leo.

Leo asked the girl who was gaping like a broken cat.

“What are you doing here?”

At that question the girl Are tried to run away without hesitation.

Leo reached out and grabbed Are’s tail.

“I don’t mean to grab a lady’s tail carelessly!”

Ar with his fur turned upside down shouted at Leo as if scolding him.

“So what are you doing here?”

Ar who had become a black rabbit rolled his eyes here and there while holding his tail in his arms then spread out his chest and said.

“I’m working!”

“why?”

“To pay off my debt!”

“….”

Leo sighed deeply.

Although I only owe one thing here I asked with hope.

“Is it gambling debt?”

“huh!”

Leo muttered as he looked at Ar who was so proud.

‘Kids at our school shouldn’t be stupid like him.’
