136 – Chapter 6. Classics are classics because they are useful in modern times (1)

early Saturday morning.

In the president’s office, where no one should be present, a gray-haired old man in a suit was scribbling with a pen since dawn.

He frowned at the monitor screen in front of him, checked the contents, and wrote notes in his notebook with a ballpoint pen by hand, while the old man organized the data.

The nameplate on the old man’s desk reads ‘Sejong Education Center President Kim Seok-dae’.

No one uses their own official name, Sejong Education Center, but calls it Sejong Academy, but Kim Seok-dae has been silently organizing his work from early morning looking at the monitor.

“It’s over.”

The president put down his pen and lay down on his chair.

There was an incident last night and things almost went awry, but I was able to organize the planned schedule without too much trouble.

“Assignment of faculty, lecturers, and students is over. Now…do we just have to wait for the day of the local practice?”

The biggest event of April, local practice.

As accidents have occurred every year, this year we have to pay more attention.

How many accidents have occurred in the past year?

It’s like a case where the bullies in the neighborhood got into a fight against a person with special powers and one person with special abilities knocked out 17 people.

A person who was drunk driving hit a person with the ability, and the person with the ability is fine, but rather calls the insurance company and lies down on the road saying that he is the victim, and the person with the ability is 100.

The two people with different abilities fell in love with each other because their eyes met, but it turned out that one of them was already dating a normal person, so the normal person harmed himself in shock and fell into a serious condition.

Accidents happen countless times due to the people who gathered to see the talented person who came out of Sejong Island.

“I hope the accident only happens to the extent that it can be repaired.”

To prepare for it, he attaches as many people as possible, but the most important thing is to take care of their mentality to prevent the runaway of the supernatural.

It’s good to have an accident in moderation.

Only then do people with special abilities think, ‘It’s not okay to have an accident’ when they see that many people are moving and dealing with the accidents they have committed.

The moment you learn with your body why the academy warned you not to get into an accident when you go out like that, stereotypes become embedded in your head.

When a hero has an accident, damage occurs to civilians, and many people suffer.

Therefore, heroes and people with special abilities need to be careful in their actions so as not to harm ordinary people recklessly.

“There is no growth without trials. Where is the flower that blooms without being shaken?”

That is Kim Seok-dae’s theory and the background of the Academy’s creation.

“The problem is Platinum Sun.”

Several screens opened simultaneously in front of the monitor.

Solar Platina, a knight in golden armor who fought against the demon Lilith.

Ermina Sternfert confined to a research facility to see if she can recover this ability while being detained in a hospital.

A golden priest who appeared in the case of Halftoad and Sirmilla.

Putting it all together, one conclusion can only be reached.

“Platinum Sun is on Sejong Island.”

I can’t help but think so.

No, if you can’t think of it, that’s weird.

If he hadn’t been able to make that analogy, he wouldn’t have risen to the position of president of the academy.

“The question is, in what form did it come in?”

Everyone has different opinions on this part.

Did you come in as a student with special abilities?

Did you come in as an ordinary person who is incompetent?

Did he completely change his identity and disguise himself as an adult older than 25?

Each person has a different guess, but the president puts weight on the ‘student theory’.

“…If you say someone with superpowers, at most he’s only a 25-year-old kid. It’s not easy for a guy like that to become an adult and hide his true identity. The younger he is, the more he wants to show off himself.”

The principal raised his mug and rose from his seat.

“Whether it’s hiding your powers, or making it easy to hide your identity, or making friends because you don’t have any friends around you, you’ve entered as a student for whatever purpose. Right now, no one knows yet… but you’ll find out soon.”

The president turned his gaze to the map hanging on the wall.

“If you’re going to purify and save the demons, you have no choice but to prepare them.”

A map of the entire Korean Peninsula below the armistice line had red pins embedded in each region, and the president sipped coffee from a mug with cold eyes.

“No matter how righteous a hero may be, he is still human after all. Bend his arms inward, and in the face of the crisis of the person most important to him, he will bear the risk of revealing his true identity.”

drooling.

When the president pushed the wall on which the map hung to the side, another space opened up behind it.

“Sueuuu… ha.”

The president smelled old books and his eyes trembled.

It looked like a person with a special ability that could smell the scent of mana powder, so someone would have goosebumps if they saw it, but the president entered the space as if he had entered heaven.

measures.

Inside the secret bookshelf, thick magazines were displayed on the bookshelf.

All of the books, as thick as college majors, were kept in good condition, and the front of each book was numbered 1 through 12, or 1996 through 2000.

“…I miss you.”

The president pulled out a magazine.

Unlike other magazines, the magazine had some blood on it.

“You can’t see the end of this story.”

The president grabbed the magazine with a bitter face.

On the outside of the magazine, there was a character from a romance cartoon whose eyes took up 30% of the head, with the words ‘Gwanggwang’ written in large letters, standing with his back to the moon holding something like a whip.

“Of course, the author did that in the episode where the mascot fairy betrayed. Ha ha.”

The principal’s sigh deepened.

“…But since I’ve finished my work, I should compensate for myself.”

thud.

After stacking magazines on the table, the president lay down in a recliner chair.

And the moment you open the first chapter.

– Trials are the perfection of human beings.

A story begins with the text studded with the phrase.

Perhaps, if it had not been for the meteorite, the story would have been complete.

But it’s a story that can’t be seen anymore.

“What happened to the magical girl who was betrayed by the mascot?”

* * *

“Sir, I think I’m going to die.”

“I’m not dying.”

Sejong Island faculty residence.

My room is no longer my own space, and there is more time for others to stay together.

“Teacher, I can’t do it anymore. I think I’m going to explode right now.”

“I didn’t put in that much, what are you talking about. I just started.”

“Yes? But you’ve already eaten four times.”

“Only four. Ymir. What time is it? It’s only 11:35 yet. And now, the fifth is complete.”

“That, stop…!”

Ymir restrained me, extending a trembling hand toward me.

“At least, you shouldn’t give it time to digest…!”

“You asked for what you asked for. I’ll give it to you as soon as it’s ready.”

“I didn’t mean to go this far!”

“It’s okay. Once you get used to it, you’ll be fine. Now, then…”

I turned to Ymir and pulled out another book.

“The following is a story about a magical girl phantom thief. It’s a story about a magical girl chosen by God who defeats a monster sent by the demon king with a little angel mascot. It’s also a very sad story.”

“Now, wait a minute. What is that again? Very… sounds like an old story.”

“Because it was serialized before we were even born. And… it was censored.”

I cut my throat with my hand.

“Dreams and hopes for children. Always give them a happy look, and the heroine should not go through hardships and adversity even if they go through hardships and adversity. Now, student Ymir. The fourth story is about a magical girl.”

“Ugh, ugh…!”

Ymir clenched his fists and glared at me.

A pile of books were placed in front of the desk where she sat, and it was a ‘collection of classic stories’ that I had borrowed from the second floor of the library.

“Student Ymir, listen carefully from now on. It’s not a smart era where anyone can become a broadcasting station, and even though it’s a story from a time when there were hardly any cameras attached to cell phones, there are plenty of stories about heroes who hide their identities.”

“Can’t we just be comfortable like we talked about last time?”

“What’s the story?”

“A story of a thief. A story of a righteous thief!”

“Oh, that.”

It was part 2 of a group of heroes hiding their identities.

“But in the second episode, the main character had a setting that was too comfortable for him, or something like that.

“Why did you prepare these sordid stories as soon as you came back from Ulleungdo?”

“That’s right, the day after tomorrow is a five-day practice.”

Ymir must prepare.

“A big event like this is one in which a group of evil seeks to reveal the identity of the main character.”

“Well, can’t the goblin act as the main character?”

“For what reason do goblins appear? Student Ymir, who am I?”

“…buy it.”

Ymir pursed his lips.

“Chi. If you’re going to come in as a faculty member, you’ll come in as a teacher. Then you’ll have a student relationship with a real teacher, not a counselor.”

“How big is the age difference. And that’s annoying, so I can’t. Will the students leave me alone?”

“Last time, Seolhee unnie praised her for her good-looking face, so you’re saying that out of confidence?”

“Of course. Rather, go ahead and look. There’s still a lot left to see.”

Just as the story of this world goes in a direction I don’t know, the people of this world don’t know the story of my world.

“Because the stories I have are filled with despair and frustration… and ‘passion’ rather than dreams and hopes. So-called misfortune porn.”

“Wow, that’s really true. Sir, so if the main character has misfortune, what’s the 5th story besides the 4th?”

“It’s a script I read on the Internet or the dark web. It’s a story that makes young children cry and scream when they see it.”

and read it as the story of my world.

“A story about defeating monsters that threaten an ordinary magical girl protagonist.”

“What is it about?”

“It’s a spoiler, are you okay?”

“…What is it?”

“Listen if you’re ready.”

I took a moment to catch my breath.

…

…

…

“The protagonist, the senior magical girl, was decapitated and died in Volume 1. And then Volume 1 ends.”

Ahhh-

Ahh-
