2. Special Admission – 05

“… I almost died.”

An antique market located quite far from Nineveh.

After receiving admission directly from the chairman, Jin, who had no business with her anymore, rushed out of the admissions office without looking back.

The reason was simple. Shouldn’t we get out of that position as quickly as possible, even for a minute or a second, before the chairman changes his mind again?

If the chairman decides, he will be able to separate Jin’s neck and body more easily than flipping his palm.

– Tsk, he seems like a man with no self-respect. Even after being humiliated like that, he ran away like a dog with its tail on fire. It’s really depressing to know that the fate of mankind depends on a man like this.

“Noisy. It is just an act of suicide to open up to the chairman on the spot.”

Jin-do wanted to take off his rank insignia and take a shot at the chairman, but if he really did what he felt like, Jin would stand in the central square as he always did and chat with an unknown middle-aged man.

– If you actually enter the school, you won’t have to worry about the chairman. At least, the position of the chairman is not an idle job to the extent that he follows you around and watches you for any nonsense.

“Yeah, that’s right. You’re already overly capable, so there’ll be a lot of calls here and there, so you’ll soon forget someone like me.”

Lysitea von Edelstein basically serves as Nineveh’s chairman, but at the same time, she is also the best swordsman and commander in the empire.

As competent as she is, the imperial family also deeply trusts her, and because of that, she has to fall into a position where she has to travel from place to place within the empire on a business trip every single day.

It can also be said that it is a living witness that reminds us once again of the truth that it is best to live a life in moderation rather than being overly competent.

– … Can it be interpreted that way?

In fact, Jin wasn’t too worried about the chairman.

More than that, I didn’t like the fact that I had to go to school again, take classes, and be friends with kids who would have eaten school lunches at this age in Korea.

‘I went to college for 2 years in 12 years of elementary, middle and high school, but I have to go to school again.’

Of course, it wasn’t just school. It was an academy, not a school.

Jin’s theory was that schools and academies were just different in name, but there were people who questioned whether they were the same place anyway, but they had to be clearly distinguished.

Isn’t there a law that contains something that makes the hearts of chewers flutter in the word academy from ancient times?

For example, if it’s only summer vacation, go to the beach and wear a swimsuit and shout ‘It’s the sea!’, sit on stone steps in the evening and enjoy fireworks, or confess your crush on a kiss during a school festival in the fall. Sharing things, going on a school trip, or going on a hot spring trip in winter with men and women together…

– … What kind of crazy delusion is this? Now I see that he was pretending to be clean on the outside, but doing very dirty thoughts through his back hole.

When Erekaya muttered that as if she was genuinely disgusted, Jin’s face twisted. To be honest, even if I thought about it, it was too blatantly stupid and delusional, so there was no excuse.

– It’s about your taste. Aside from that, why the hell did you come to the antique market? Nineveh basically has to live in a dormitory. In order to enter and live there from now on, there are many things that need to be prepared.

“Yeah, like you said, it’s to buy the essentials for dorm life.”

– … What do you need for dorm life?

At Jin’s words, Erekaya showed signs of not understanding.

“Think carefully. In Nineveh, all students live in dormitories. If so, there could be cases where other people enter my room due to unavoidable circumstances?”

– Yeah… Of course. If you enter Nineveh, you will surely make at least one or two friends, and it cannot be said that you do not invite others to your room.

“… Ugh.”

To make friends ‘of course’. As Jin listened to Erekaya’s words, he could easily notice that she had the temperament of an insider.

Well, no matter how much I was the little princess of the Duke of Pendragon, I was quite an insider, so I would have stepped forward to take on the role of student council president in charge of all students in Nineveh.

Even with his own help, is it really possible for Jin to seduce a woman like Erekaya? No matter how I think about it, it seems unlikely…

“Anyway, there is a good chance that someone else will enter my room. And when he looks around my room, what will he think if he doesn’t have that common family picture hanging there?”

Is this guy an orphan with no father or mother? You may think that Furthermore, if you are a person with a broken personality, you might be talking about the fact that Jin is an orphan everywhere.

Of course, Jin’s parents are alive and well in Korea. However, since he does not exist in this world, it would be fair to say that Jin is a man without a mother.

“Actually, it doesn’t matter if I have parents or not. However, I hate the fact that such facts are recklessly going up and down in other people’s mouths. If you get attention like that, there is a possibility that a useless background investigation will come in.”

– … That is definitely true. And yes, Jean.

“yes? why?”

Erekaya opened her mouth in a benevolent voice unlike usual.

– I don’t really care about the fact that you don’t have parents. So, if you feel lonely, tell me anytime. Even though I’m weak, I can act as a mother.

“… Are you saying that is also comforting?”

– Tsk, it would have been better if the body had remained. If my body had been left, I would use my overflowing maternal love right away…

“It’s done. Just go there.”

Anyway, she is like an indifferent woman who does not know the human heart.

After grumbling once, Jin wandered around the market looking for a plausible photo to use as camouflage.

And after about 3 hours.

“found.”

After searching every nook and cranny of the market, Jin was able to find a picture of a couple and a child.

In fact, family photos were scattered all over the antique market. However, it was just that it was very difficult to find a child with black hair and a look similar to Jin’s childhood.

– Well, even if you look at the entire continent, it looks so unique.

“Shut up.”

After quieting Erekaya, who was whispering in his head, Jin quietly spoke to her.

“Erekaya, by the way, I have a question for you.”

– What do you mean?

“What kind of woman is Erekaya del Pendragon?”

– What do you mean by that again?

“The goal of this episode is to make you a woman happy, and to make you happy, I made a plan to make you fall in love, but I really don’t know what kind of woman you are. I think I need to know what kind of woman you are in order to seduce you.”

– Oh, did you mean that?

Erekaya stayed quiet for a while, as if she was struggling with something, and spoke only after a while.

– The past me… She is a very annoying woman.

“Are you bothered?”

– The Erekaya Del Pendragon of the past is a very polite woman on the outside, and a woman who is gentle with others regardless of her social status. But that’s just a façade. If you look inside, she is a darker woman than you think.

“… Mmm.”

– The reason why you treat everyone politely without caring about your status is because you think everyone is below you, and the reason you have a soft attitude is because it’s easier to earn the trust of others by behaving like that.

– That doesn’t mean he’s evil. It’s just that they don’t have much interest or interest in other people except themselves. The years she lived as a ‘Princess Pendragon’ rather than ‘Erekaya Del Pendragon’ were so long that she unknowingly used the art of dealing with others and the art of tolerance.

– Erekaya del Pendragon knows no love. It’s because you’ve never loved someone before. I have never loved someone painfully, and I have never experienced being deeply loved by someone. And as a result, I even forgot how to love someone. In order to fulfill his duty as a person born noble, he did not stop for even a single moment and just ran. And at the end, you know very well what kind of end I met.

“…..”

How could I forget that sight? Flames burning all around. A terrifying landscape that seems to embody hell itself, where no living person exists.

And in the middle of it, a woman who leads everyone to death.

Erekaya continued speaking in a slightly bitter tone.

– That’s why the mask she wears to hide her essence is thick. No matter how much I help you, you will have to wake up a little to get rid of that mask.

“It’s a mask… .”

It’s a mask I’ve been wearing for 17 years. It occurred to me that it would not be easy to peel it off of her.

– What did I say? It’s simpler than you think. Then, let me suggest a solution for you who are simple and foolish.

“what is that?”

– In the past, I have a surprisingly pure temperament. That’s why it’s better to just attack from behind without even looking and stamp it first…

“What kind of bullshit is that… .”

I don’t know anything else, but if I really do that, I wonder if Duke Pendragon, who is known as an idiot, will tear my limbs into about a dozen pieces.

– But suddenly there is one thing I’m curious about. If I allow the present me to attack the past me, can that also be classified as Hwagan? Or is my consent in the past essential? Jin, what do you think?

“…..”

Can I really trust this woman and entrust her with hair care? Jin started to feel regret once again.
