Dawn.
Rumbling thunder.
The sound of rain hitting the pavement.
I sat curled up in the open draped curtain.
Raindrops slide down the translucent icy veil, freezing as they were and becoming part of the veil.
I stared at the scene endlessly.
“Aahh.”
3 days. It was the 3rd day.
No matter how much I thought about it, I transmigrated into the game <Magical Knight of Marchen>, which I had been playing for 7 years.
As a third-class extra who had nothing to do with the protagonist or the main characters.
It was a really obvious cliché.
I don’t know if I’m in a stable period now.
It was just vague.
At the beginning of my student days, when I saw the piles of books stacked taller than my height, I felt a sense of dread and hopelessness.
Maybe this was a punishment.
I wanted to rehash the story after a long time. So I tried to proceed comfortably and started playing anew with the only applicable stat 100 cheat.
Being a veteran person, I shouldn’t have done that…
‘That’s why I transmigrated.’
Haha, crazy.
I’m really thinking of all sorts of things.
However, it was true that I was transmigrated into <Magic Knight of Marchen>.
As a result of living for three days, this was the Marchen Academy that I saw in the game.
And today is the day of the entrance ceremony, which marks the beginning of the game.
I found out thanks to the date on the entrance ceremony banner and the dormitory calendar, both of which were mostly hidden behind the main gate.
I first opened my eyes in the dormitory.
I used the academy’s own currency, which I received as a freshman benefit, and paid for my meals.
Wandering around silently every day.
I felt this absurd reality…
In addition, I was able to use magic by sending magic power sensibly. This [Ice Curtain] was proof of that.
Well… it’s not funny.
As I was absent-mindedly lost in thought while listening to the sound of rain, a terrible realization struck my mind.
‘This…, it’s Hell level difficulty.’
<Magic Knight of Marchen> begins with the selection of difficulty levels: Easy, Normal, and Hard. You can choose the ‘Extreme’ difficulty from the 2nd round, and the infamous ‘Hell’ difficulty from the 3rd round onwards.
The atmosphere in ‘Hell’ difficulty changes dramatically from the start.
Today, as usual, should be sunny from start to finish. It was a good day to mark the beginning of the main character, Ian Fairy Tail’s, chaotic academy life.
The refreshing background sound and bright atmosphere of that time were etched in my memory.
However, if you select Hell difficulty, the game starts with heavy rain and gloomy weather.
I remember the beginning of the ‘Hell’ difficulty, devoid of any background sound, and only the sound of rain sounded. It was almost as if it was foreshadowing the difficult road ahead.
And in this difficulty, Ian fights the enemy even before the entrance ceremony begins.
‘Even if I got transmigrated… ’
Hell difficulty, as its name suggests, boasted insane difficulty.
It was natural for the enemies’ level to increase or the pattern to become more difficult, and the story itself has changed, so enemies that did not appear in the previous difficulty appear now and then.
It is a challenge that only most veterans of people can overcome.
‘But I… .`
When I willed to see the status window, a translucent window appeared in front of me. It was an interface that I saw often in games.

As a third-class extra, these were disastrous abilities.
First and foremost, Level 20. The average level of freshmen, from what I recall, was around 40. There were students of various grades present, but there were some exceptions.
In this game, Level 20 was the level you can get during the Hell difficulty tutorial. Too low.
Even if mental power is high, it will only increase resistance to Illusion-type magic. It’s not much help in combat.
‘How can I not even be at a basic level?’
The same goes for skills. Considering that the worst grade is E-class, it is easy to guess how garbage level is of [Elemental Firepower] D-grade, which was responsible for skill power.
How did such a trivial character get into the prestigious Marchen Academy?
If I think about the contents of the game, it was clear that I was overwhelmed by the writing skills, not the actual skills.
Then what do I do? My head is blank.
I have to worry about my future life.
I don’t know if I’ll be able to return to reality later or have to live here.
The worst case is when the world has a bad ending due to the death of the main character, Ian Fairy Tail, and I die too.
So, under the assumption that I can’t return to reality, what’s the safest countermeasure I can take?
It is to clear this game.
‘I got lucky that the cheat was applied… .’
As a result of checking the status window for the past 3 days, the stat 100 cheat was applied as it is.
It does not affect the direct stats. It is used to invest in potential. Therefore, it was difficult to expect dramatic effects.
The problem is that this ‘Isaac’ character has poor potential and specs…
‘… [Ice Generation].’
The ball of ice created in the air by sending magical energy was only the size of a soccer ball. It was created by pouring out the maximum magical power that can once be used to make a block of ice.
「Ice Generation (Ice Attribute, ★1)」
When I released the power, the magical mass received the force of gravity and fell to the ground.
… Really, very weak.
Why don’t I make it inside the other person’s body? That’s not possible. There is a setting where it’s not possible to generate the magic within another person’s body because of the ‘mana force field’.
In other words, my only power is to drop ice cubes.
So, I had to check it with my own two eyes first.
Will the main character, Ian Fairy Tail, be able to get through this hellish difficulty well?
●~●~●~●~
<Magical Knight of Marchen> The first boss of hell difficulty, ‘Trevion of Evil’.
He meets the main character today, just before the entrance ceremony.
In the future, the main character, Ian Fairy Tail, will have many enemies. Because Ian has special powers.
‘The rain has stopped.’
The time has come.
I looked at the clock tower in the center of the academy.
The current time is 8 am. The sun was pouring through the slowly shrinking dark clouds.
I went into the ‘Josena Forest’ outside the main gate of the academy to relive the memories of playing the game.
Climbing up the hill, I would find a small dormitory where the main character, Ian Fairy Tale, stayed for a while on his way to the Marchen Academy. Ian leaves the dormitory today, heading to the academy.
My destination is an open vacant lot that comes out as you walk through a forest road lined with trees. It was the place where Ian was on his way to the academy.
‘It’s here… !’
I stopped as soon as I reached my destination.
A black-haired man leaned against a tree, his head bowing.
He was dressed similarly to me, and blood poured from his mouth.
Seeing his so familiar face, I immediately knew who he was.
Ian Fairy Tail. He was the protagonist of <Magical Knight of Marchen>.
[ Ian Fairy Tail ]
Lv: 30
Race: Human
Attribute: Light
Danger: X
An information window appeared in the air and identified the black-haired man as Ian Fairy Tail.
After completing the Hell difficulty tutorial, your rank will be 30. The main character, who was knocked out over there, seemed to have finished the tutorial.
And in front of the fainted protagonist, a dark-skinned man stood.
The dark-skinned man was limp. His hands, which almost slanted to both sides, were twisted.
Curly, pure white hair. The first villain that drove countless players into the depths of despair right from the start of the Hell difficulty.

[Trevion of Evil]
Lv: 80
Race: Demon
Attributes: Darkness, Water
Danger: High
It was ‘Trevion of Evil’.
‘Level 80… It’s Hell for sure.’
Right after the game started, the enemy who foretells the future, Trevion of Evil. He was level 80 on Hell difficulty.
On the other hand, Ian’s level was 30. As of now, if Ian gets hit with one light attack from Trevion, he’ll fall into a moribund state like now, if he gets hit by two, he’ll die.
Because of the ‘Hell’ difficulty, the level was so high. Even after defeating it, the amount of experience gained was similar to other difficulties.
The development team’s gloomy intention to not even begin the Hell difficulty without a high level of control seems excessive.
It doesn’t make sense from a plot standpoint for the current Ian to defeat Trevion.
Eventually, in the middle of the fight, Kaya Astreane, the deputy head of the Faculty of Magic, will appear and subdue the enemy.
So the purpose is ‘endurance’.
By the way…
‘Ian, what are you doing now?’
Did you apply it from the start?
It can’t be. Please say no…
Of course, the Hell difficulty requires control of the dead from the start, but even so, this is not…
Trevion approached the knocked-out Ian. Black water balls floated in each of his hands. It was a magic that combined the darkness and water properties.
… From the first day of the entrance ceremony, this world was on the verge of a bad ending.
‘What will happen to me when I die?’
What will happen to me when there is a bad ending? Will I go back to reality, or… do I die?
…Ominous. I have no idea what to do.
The thing most likely to guarantee my safety is to clear this game.
At the end of the story, it is said that Ian became a magic knight and went on to win.
As Marchen Academy is the most prestigious academy on the continent, you can live in this world with just a diploma.
However, in order to do that, you must defeat the final boss, ‘Nepid the Evil God’.
Naturally, this game cannot be completed without that bastard who is the main character.
Let’s think of a way. Now, the best way to solve this crisis is…?
‘Oh, Cheat.’
Stats 100 cheat!
I quickly opened the status window and entered the Potential <<Details>>.
[Potential]
Retained stats: 100
◈ Growth Rate
– Physical Training Efficiency (D+): 16/100 [UP]
– Magic Training Efficiency (D-): 10/100 [UP]

[T/N: The term here is ‘대 이 종족 전투력’ which literally translates to ‘This Race’.]
– vs. Elyos Combat Power (E): 0/100 [UP]
– vs. Demon Combat Power (E): 0/100 [UP]
The stat 100 cheat I entered. It was applied without any problems.
The [UP] button was active for each potential because there were retained stats.
The potential that had already been allocated seemed to be innate to Isaac himself.
Anyway, ignoring everything, I poured all my stats into [vs. Demon Combat Power].
Trringgggg-♪
[Potential [vs. Demon Combat Power] has been improved from E-class to S-class!]
[You have acquired the unique trait [Destroyer]!]
[vs. Demon Combat Power] Highest Level. This gave you the unique trait [Destroyer].
It was only natural to use all of the combat power available in this situation. That’s because dealing with demons temporarily increased the combat power.
Most of the official villains in <Magic Knight of Marchen> are demons. The more you invest in [vs. Demon Combat Power], the more specialized you become in boss battles.
And [Destroyer] is a unique trait that can only be obtained by maxing out [vs. Demon Combat Power]. It is a role that enhances the effectiveness of [vs. Demon Combat Power].
As a result, I will be able to demonstrate strong fighting power against the demon Trevion from now on.
I went out into the open space.
Then, as Trevion approached Ian, he noticed my presence and turned his gaze to me.
“…….”
[……]
Dark purple eyes. Human face. An elongated body that seems to have stretched out. When he saw me, he smiled wide enough to tear apart the corners of his lips. It was a bizarre appearance.
[Hello?]
Trevion shook his head and said hello with a squeaky voice.
People had given him a nickname. It was ‘Himan.’
Trevion can only say ‘Hello’.
[Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello?]
He started swaying and approached with a frightening speed!
I stretched out my right hand towards Trevion. It was a posture to use magic.
What effect will it have? Fear and anticipation were intertwined within me.
Then, suddenly, my heart started beating strongly as if it had been bitten by a vise.
Blood boiled in his body, and the flow of mana became intense.
[The demon has been recognized as an enemy.]
[Unique trait [Destroyer] is activated!]
[Levels and stats are greatly increased!]
[The skill tree temporarily becomes +10!]

‘Oh… ‘
Levels and abilities… rose sharply.
It felt like I could pour something powerful.
I surrendered myself to that feeling.
Trevion swung his arms. Then, strange magical energy mixed with darkness and water flew towards me in a spiral path.
At that moment, I let out the cold air flowing through my body with my right hand.
A geometric pattern of a light blue light appears in front of the right hand
The cold magic exploded.
——————「Ice Explosion (Ice Attribute, ★5)」
Kwahahahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh——- !!
“Wow!”
As if exploding, a ball of ice burst out of my hand and devoured Trevion’s magic!
The mana of ice spread out in a fan shape at once and dominated the vacant space.
It swallowed up Trevion and soared diagonally toward the sky as if bouncing off the ground.
A huge block of ice formed in a short time, looking incredibly magnificent.
That block of ice gently blew cold air around it, giving the illusion of being in the North or South Pole.
Trevion stood trapped in the block of ice with a painful face as if time had stopped.
Fortunately, the main character, Ian Fairy Tail, was barely outside the range of the ice block, so there was no damage. It was because the ice ball soared into the sky before it reached him.
I let out a deep sigh in the chill and relief.
From the palm of my right hand, from where the magic had flowed, pure white cold air was flowing out like a primer leaking from a muzzle that fired a bullet.
Before, I could only make a block of ice the size of a soccer ball…
The iceberg that appeared in front of me, with thorns in all directions, was on a different level.
This was the result of taking [vs. Demon Combat Power] up to a point—–.
I sensed that it was possible to release the results of my magic. As if by remote control, I naturally released the magic power flowing through the ice ingots.
As expected, the sharp and huge chunk of ice cracked apart.
quaaaang–.
It broke down with an explosion, became a light blue-colored powder, and started to be blown away in the wind. It was ‘freezing off’.
Trevion collapsed in blood. This is because the ice attacked him aggressively when the skill, [Ice Explosion] occurred.
‘Is it fine… ?’
It didn’t matter if I jumped any further. I thought I could win with ease.
Soon, Treviong drooped his body on the floor and swayed.
[Hello… hi…]
A powerless voice scattered in the wind.
Trevion turned into gray dust and disappeared.
