50 – Red Yellow Red – 4
The two days of persuasion finally paid off.
I had talked to the dean, so I left behind my grandfather’s words to calm down a little more.
I was able to succeed in returning to Gearco Academy.
‘It took two days. Two days to return to the judge’s side.’
I’m so sorry about your grandfather. don’t know his heart
What if there is another attack? Rest a little longer.
I hesitated several times watching my grandfather who was almost begging.
But where I should be, was by his side.
I want to show you a better side of me next to the person I admire the most.
It’s all thanks to the judges that we’ve taken this step forward.
“miss. Im here.”
“thanks. I’ll be there then.”
I left the guards behind me and ran inside.
The place where examiner Baek Seo-jin is located is right in front.
When I suddenly appear that I will rest for a few more days, what kind of expression will he make?
Would you be very surprised? You wouldn’t have thought you’d come this early, so you probably will.
But it’s only for a moment, I’m sure you’ll be very happy.
Because the judge cares for me terribly. Because you are such a person.
“Examiner!”
I thought about sneaking up, so I thought about surprise.
But as soon as the judge’s image caught my eye, I forgot all about it.
Calling Judge Baek Seo-jin while holding back the smile that keeps coming up from his lips… .
“uh. Suhyun-ah!”
From noblemtl.com
Judge Baek Seo-jin, whom I saw, was not alone.
Next to him was Kang Hana-senpai.
“Why are you here… .”
The only thing that came to my mind was that question.
why is the old man here? It’s been like a while ago, isn’t it too often?
Kang Hana-sunbaenim is not a bronze rank, but he is not a silver rank either.
It’s a platinum level that has nothing to do with Judge Baek Seo-jin.
But why do I keep seeing you next to the judge?
While I was gone, I imagined a senior who stayed next to the judge.
And as he did for me, the image of the examiner doing it for seniors was drawn.
‘Nope. no. no.’
I didn’t want to see the judge and the senior talking more.
Even though he is stronger than me, he is a much greater person.
It’s because you have so many advantages that you can’t compare to the likes of me.
So, without my knowledge, I told a story that could be called confidential information.
But I had no regrets. Thanks to you, the judge turned his attention to me.
‘Let’s go now, old man. Hurry here… .’
… Nope. It shouldn’t be like this. The judge is a good person, but the senior is also a good person.
The person who took care of me from before without even knowing it. You are like an older sister to me, right?
You can’t be like this. That’s betraying the heart of the senior who helped me all along.
yes. It’s clear that you’ve been here for a while for some reason.
yes. Definitely will. You’re even the student council president, right?
You’ll be there right away. Then, next to the judge, I will be left alone again… .
“Is there a public class today?”
After saying that, the senior focused on the conversation with the judge again.
It just seems like my mouth is drying up.
My heart thumped and sank at the words of the senior who followed.
“Actually. There are people who want to propose to join the clan.”

Unexpected Clan Recruitment Proposal. I hope this day will come
But for now, that’s an unappealing proposition.
It’s not even worth worrying about for me, the answer is fixed.
“Thank you for saying that, student Kang Ha-na.”
When you join a clan, you automatically have to step down from the judge position.
From my point of view, it is like giving up the most efficient source of growth.
The silver gatekeeper should be where the bronzes are, wherever they go.
However, I thought about the face of Kang Ha-na who made the proposal.
After thinking about it for about 30 seconds, he shook his head and expressed his refusal.
“sorry. I have no particular intention of joining a clan.”
“Well, why don’t you meet and talk to the person who made the proposal?”
“No matter what suggestion you make, the answer will be the same.”
On the face of it, accepting this offer is fraught with problems.
I announced in front of the students that I was doing this for ‘others’ rather than ‘me’.
If you suddenly go to the clan, you are destroying the cause you have established yourself.
“If you go to the clan. No, even receiving the proposal itself will make the students feel very disappointed. I said with my mouth that I was playing the role of an examiner who was so clogged up because I wanted to lift my friends who were in a low place. What if that person actually moved to the top class in the industry just because he got some word of mouth?”
“… Of course, the reaction will not be good.”
“I know exactly. Then, a strong student, please tell me well.”
Strong on my words, I didn’t mention the suggestion part anymore.
Instead, he lowers his head, saying that he seems to have committed an offense.
“I’m sorry, judge. I think I was thinking too shallow.”
“Nope. Rather, I am more sorry. I know very well that the Mage Tower is not the first place to make contact like this. It’s like you’re missing out on an incredible opportunity that no one else will ever have again.”
If it’s a mage tower clan, it’s a really amazing place. It is a dream job for talented people.
Except for the place led by Han Ji-yoon, it is safe to say that it is the number one clan in Korea.
I put my hand out in such a place, but it was thrown out on the spot.
“Please make sure to tell the person who made the offer that you are sorry.”
“Do not worry. If my father listened to the judge’s will, he would know enough that the judge’s heart for our academy students is really deep.”
“ah… My father made an offer. It looks like your father is a key official of the Mage Tower Clan.”
Well, that would explain the part of giving full support to Lee Hyeon-woo.
It’s something a mere low-level executive couldn’t even dream of… .
“to? Oh, did you not know? I thought you knew, right?”
You thought you knew? suddenly what?
Kim Soo-hyun, who was next to me, answered my question.
“Examiner. Kang Hana-senpai’s father is the Mage Tower Clan Master.”
Then, wait a minute. what. Not even an executive, but a clan master.
The Clan Master of the Mage Tower asked to see it in person?
I promise to never tell anyone about this.
Because if I told the truth without thinking, I would only get cursed at.
T-D-DI-DIC-!
“… Oh, I’m sorry. It looks like something happened again. Let’s go! See you next time!”
Kang Hana, who checked the loudly ringing watch, runs toward the main building where the student council is located.
“I’m going.”
A smile finally returns to Kim Soo-hyun’s face.
Suhyeon. why are you so scared please don’t do that
“I knew the judge would do that.”
“What?”
“You rejected the senior’s proposal with a single stroke. If you were the judge, I thought you would always be here.”
That’s the conclusion I came to by calculating this side’s profit and loss.
The answer, of course, did not come out of my mouth.
“of course. The level of students hasn’t risen yet, Lee Hyun-woo, Su-hyeon, and even you. Because there are so many students who are looking forward to it. I am not going anywhere.”
“Yes? I knew you would. Yes. Don’t do that. Judge.”
Kim Soo-hyun with a bright smile quietly leans next to me.
Seriously, looking at it like this, I wonder how she became the Red Witch.

‘Today is over!’
Hana Kang, who left the academy, moved to a different direction, not home.
The central street of Korea’s talented people, where several clan headquarters are gathered.
Among them, the clan ‘Magic Tower’, which boasts the largest scale, was her destination.
Upon entering, several people saw Kang Hana and greeted her.
“oh my. Welcome, lady.”
“really! I told you not to call me that.”
“But what about? It sticks to your mouth hahahaha!”
Despite Kang Hana’s criticism, the clan members did not give up the title of lady.
That was the closeness shown to the clan master’s daughter, and a proof of trust in the clan master.
Thanks to that, I gave up trying to stop even the strongest and headed for the top floor of the clan headquarters.
smart-
“Father, it is me.”
“Come in.”
Upon opening the door and entering, a middle-aged man greets Hana Kang.
He was a mage tower clan master, an A-class person with special abilities, a master of flame magic, and a strong man.
“Are you here? How have you been today?”
“Yes. Oh, Suhyeon went to school today.”
“already? I didn’t expect him to send it so soon.”
Hana Kang shrugged her shoulders once and got to the point.
“The offer was rejected by the examiner.”
“Did you mean this dad told me to meet you?”
“I didn’t directly mention that part. I just said that there are people who want to meet. Would you accept it as a burden or a feeling of pressure? Did I do anything wrong?”
“No, no. Very well done. We are his benefactors, so we shouldn’t be rude.”
Although not from the same family, Kang In-bum respects Kang Min-seong more than anyone else.
Since Baek Seo-jin saved Kang Min-seong’s granddaughter, it’s natural for Kang In-beom to be careful.
“You are definitely a really nice person. You told me the reason for the rejection, but I was so sorry.”
Kang Hana’s words that follow are the reasons Baek Seo-jin rejected the offer.
Upon hearing the details from his daughter, Kang In-beom exclaimed, “Ah,” and exclaimed.
To think that he offered to join such a wonderful young man without even knowing how cool he was.
It can be said that he is one of the few truly talented people left in this era!
“It would be nice if negative images of the Mage Tower weren’t planted for no reason.”
“I am worried about that too. So, I have a thought. If the examiner is in trouble, why don’t we help at our mage tower? I think it will be better then.”
“I wonder if something difficult will happen to his benefactor… Your thoughts are not bad either.”
It was Baek Seo-jin who had a debt to the Mage Tower Clan without even knowing it.
