133 – Skill supremacy (1)

one day in October.

Fast-!!

With a cool sound, Kang Seok-ho flew over the training ground.

Kang Seok-ho looked up blankly at the ceiling of the training ground in an all-too-familiar situation.

‘That’s strange… … .’

yes. weird.

During the vacation, everyone was immersed in training except for the time to eat and sleep.

He swallowed a pill of a kind of elixir that he couldn’t find because he wanted to, and he also ate a lot of spirit plants that increase magic power.

In fact, when the vacation ended, the amount of mana increased by 40% of the previous amount, and the magic circuit to support the increased amount was also felt much stronger.

In addition, with the help of the first older brother’s physical education method, he became quite good at transforming the ability of ‘steel’ by specifying only the body he wanted.

I can’t say with certainty how strong I’ve become with this alone.

But one thing is for sure, I was certain that if I matched myself before the vacation, I could win unconditionally.

Koo—!!

Kang Seok-ho, who was flying in the sky, fell from the back of his head to the floor of the arena, and his body naturally became one with the floor.

‘It really hurts… .’

Kang Seok-ho raised his body, frowning at the shock that permeated through it even though he had used his ability.

– Nayoung is a little late.

-yes?

Baek Hana, who was going down the arena, turned her head again.

Startle.

Kang Seok-ho quickly closed his eyes and lay down on the road.

It’s because I know through long experience that if we make eye contact now, we will have to stand on top of it once again.

‘Ha, should I just drop out?’

Since the beginning of the semester, her relationship with Baek Ha-na has deteriorated, and she is being robbed like a dog every time in front of other classmates, including the face of a teenage guild. In fact, wouldn’t it be at the level of a little hard punching bag that moves now?

Even the children of forces hostile to her felt sorry for her and even offered words of comfort.

Even after the grade evaluation, his relationship with his fiancé, Na Joo-hee, began to drift little by little, and now he has come to the point where he is no different from other people he knows only by face.

‘I grabbed the tail and really… … .’

Isn’t there anything to say with so much contempt for not touching the butt and holding the tail, which was revealed as a weakness?

The cold relationship between Kang Seok-ho and Na Joo-hee was actually a relationship that could be quickly restored if Kang Seok-ho acknowledged his mistakes and apologized. However, Kang Seok-ho has not apologized to Na Joo-hee for holding Baek Ha-na’s tail until now, several months later.

No matter how many times he reviewed the things he had adjusted to Na Joo-hee, he did not think that his judgment at that time was wrong.

“Oh, there are all three of them.”

‘… … ?’

Kang Seok-ho, who was about to lie down pretending to be dead until the song announcing the end of the lecture, opened his eyes.

This is because the voice of Kang Han-na, who was busy preparing for the recent academy festival and gave lectures autonomously and did not show her face, was heard.

“This child is still lying down. Hey, if you’re going to do that, go to the dormitory and sleep.”

Tuk-tuk.

Kang Han-na approached and touched Kang Seok-ho’s shoulder with her foot and smiled.

“… I’m excited.”

“Patient, stop trembling and get up. You two are coming too.”

In fact, Baek Ha-na’s chin creaked a little, but Kang Seok-ho had no choice but to let out a short sigh and stand up.

“See, now is the time… … .”

Lalala~♪

Kang Han-na tried to check the time and raised her head while humming along to the pleasant melody that flowed from the ceiling.

“It’s 12 o’clock. Eat your lunch and come to the upperclassmen training ground by 2:00.”

“Is it because of the festival?”

“Uh, since all the candidates have been decided, we decided to gather today. Anyone having a lecture in the afternoon?”

Baek Ha-na and Nam Seo-hee raised their hands together.

“Tell the professor that I have to leave because of the festival. Then he will take care of the attendance.”

“What about the assignment?”

“Of course, the assignments too.”

Baekhana nodded.

“Heh, okay. Then see you in two hours, my cutie.”

“… … ?”

Hana Baek patted her on the shoulder and looked at Kang Han Na with strange eyes as she went down the stage with a smile on her face.

I don’t know if it’s because we’ve been seeing each other for quite a while, but the distance has narrowed to the point where we can have a casual conversation, but it’s because it’s the first time I’ve seen Kang Han Na’s reaction like that.

“It’s one, I told the kids.”

“Ah, yes. let’s go.”

Baek Ha-na quickly forgot Kang Han-na because of the swarming hunger and headed to the restaurant.

**

“Seo-hee, it’s this way.”

“yes.”

After a pleasant meal, Baek Ha-na and Nam Seo-hee walked east of the academy.

“Looks like there.”

“They are about the same size as ours.”

The two of them moved towards the huge dome-shaped structure that appeared. And went inside through the wide open entrance.

“I guess we are the last.”

“Yeah.”

Baek Ha-na and Nam Seo-hee stood on top of the training ground and blinked their eyes calmly at the students and professors lined up.

Baek Ha-na and Nam Seo-hee were both unusual people living with their family members, so they weren’t the type to notice things like this.

In addition, because of Nam Seo-hee’s identity and the relationship between Baek Ha-na and Claire, which is spreading implicitly, the upperclassmen and some professors did not pay any attention to the two.

-Baekhana, here you are.

“… … ?”

Baek Ha-na’s head naturally turned toward her at the sound of her name being called. And I was able to find Na Joo-hee with her bright red hair hanging down.

“Seo-hee, it’s over there.”

“… I guess so.”

Baek Ha-na, who had already shaken off all of her feelings for Na Ju-hee, moved there casually, and Nam Seo-hee followed Baek Ha-na, staring at Na Joo-hee with a gaze that was several times colder than she had been glaring at Idney.

“Why are you so late?”

“I was told to come by 2 o’clock.”

Baek Ha-na answered Na Ju-hee’s question as it was.

“… yes. Because it’s not too late.”

She also knew that Baek Ha-na had a slightly different way of thinking than the other students, so she didn’t say much. Na Joo-hee was still hoping to become friends with Baek Ha-na. To be precise, they were looking for an opportunity to invite them to join the guild.

“But where did you go when the barrier disappeared?”

“at home.”

“… Didn’t you wait?”

“… … ?”

At Na Joo-hee’s answer, Baek Ha-na tilted her head.

Waiting, where and who?

“It’s one, I’ll have to look ahead. Come on Professor.”

“ah… … .”

Baek Hana quickly raised her head and looked ahead.

Nam Seo-hee, who took her gaze away from Na Joo-hee, licked her lips as she stared at the bright red eyes staring back at her.

– I’m sorry. jump. thing. lee. ji. mind.

-huh. That. Nyan. friend. under. crab. ji. my. ryo. Is. thing. Hey.

-ji. Ral.

-… … ?!

Na Joo-hee opened her eyes wide at the unexpected interpretation, but Nam Seo-hee was already holding Baek Ha-na’s hand and looking forward.

Baek Ha-na, not even interested in what was going on next to her, slightly lifted her toes and looked at the front of the stage.

Untidy black hair.

Large glasses that have now become a symbol.

Tall with broad shoulders.

There is a unified outfit in dark black.

‘… After all, the coat suits me the best.’

Baek Ha-na had to exert considerable effort to hold the corner of her mouth that was about to go up in a smirk while seeing Baek Woo-jin wearing the old coat she had been wearing since he came to save her.

[This is Baek Woo-jin, who is in charge of the general supervisor.]

Baek Ha-na’s heart pounded slightly at the sound of his voice, as if he was talking right next to him.

The day I faked an illness with the advice of my older sister Claire.

The very sweet voice that whispered in his ear as he stroked his hair naturally tried to come to mind.

‘I, calm down… … .’

You can’t show your ugly side in public.

That’s why Hana Baek desperately had to work hard to push back the memory of that time.

【The next 100 days. It is the time given until the festival.]

Baek Woo-jin’s voice continues.

Hana Baek managed to shake off the memories of the past by focusing on the voice of the present, not the past.

[I don’t know what it is like from the academy’s point of view, but as I, who received the position as if I was passing it off, I’m not very interested in what you guys will do, and I’m not interested.]

-Keuheum, big… … .

In a place where neither the students nor the professor dared to show any reaction, Jayden was the only one who cleared his throat.

【However, once you have accepted the position of manager, you cannot just abandon your duties.】

again-

The sound of heels that felt theft was heard in the arena.

Then, among the professors, a cold-looking beauty with elegant blond hair neatly tied up stood beside Baek Woo-jin.

Clerbin Assen.

At the same time as she was next to Baek Woo-jin, the students started to stir.

‘… I envy you.’

only one person

Only Baek Ha-na pouted her lips so as not to be revealed.

【I’ll look after you at least once a week, whenever there’s room in her schedule. I think I’ve done everything I can as a person in charge.]

The students didn’t answer, but they were nodding their heads inwardly, and the professors’ reactions were not very different from the students.

He is the representative of God, whose face is difficult to see even if he is given billions of money.

But not only seeing faces, but also being taught?

Already with that fact alone, the students were determined to recommend Baek Woo-jin as the general manager again next year.

【Finally, to the guy who takes the position of ‘King’, I will give you the benefits you want while maintaining your position. However, I will attach the condition that the permissible range must be feasible within the academy.]

After those words, Baek Woo-jin turned around, followed by Claire.

‘… Will you listen to what I want?’

After Baek Woo-jin left, Baek Ha-na’s head was filled with that sentence.

Percussion—!!

“… … ?”

Baek Hana came to her senses at the slight impact on her shoulder and turned her head toward the person who put her hand on her shoulder.

“… professor?”

Kang Han-na, who had left with a smile on her shoulder at the 1st grade training ground, was right in front of her with that smiling face.

“hehehe, our cutie? what are you standing there blankly Don’t move forward quickly.”

“… … ?”

Hana Baek turned her head in the direction Kang Han Na was pointing at.

-Students who will participate in the ranking right now, please gather in front of me.

I could see the upperclassmen rushing in front of Jayden, standing in a straight line in front of Baek Woo-jin.

“What is sequence transfer?”

“It’s literally ranking who’s the strongest.”

“ranking… … king… ?”

“yes. The strongest one over there will sit in the king’s seat.”

Regardless of the grade, all students compete once, so the ranking is determined in advance regardless of grade.

Just because you’re in a higher grade doesn’t necessarily mean you’re stronger.

And the students knew this very well.

The most important thing for an Awakener is the amount of magical power he is born with when he first awakens.

“Come on, let’s go and take the king’s seat!!”

“… … king.”

Hana Baek muttered the word ‘king’ and slowly moved forward.

“… … .”

“… … .”

Nam Seo-hee and Na Joo-hee, who were watching the scene, also hurriedly took their steps and joined Baek Ha-na’s side.

Kang Han-na smiled heartily as she saw Baek Ha-na moving forward little by little.

“I’ve put in my paycheck for this month, so be sure to win.”
