79 – getting famous – 2
On the way home, I continued to talk with Han Ji-yoon.
At first, I just started with a small story.
After that, the conversation gradually led to more serious topics.
“Come to think of it, there is one thing I am most curious about.”
“What is it?”
“On that day, the day they went out for practice, the students were attacked by surprise. How the hell did the villains know so accurately and launch an ambush? I am very curious about this.”
The number of people who go outside and the professor who will lead them.
And even if the date is notified in advance
Where the trainees will go, which dungeon they will go to, the location will be announced on the same day.
If you know the date in advance and look at the status of clearing each dungeon.
And if you can grasp the movements of people with national abilities.
Even if it could be predicted to some extent, this surprise attack was too accurate.
Even after hearing Han Ji-yoon’s story, it wasn’t just the 5 of us who took the surprise attack.
Even all the other teams, it is said that they all came under a massive attack by the villains.
Fortunately, there were no tragedies that resulted in deaths from that team.
It was a million bucks. If someone dies, there’s nothing worse than that.
Apparently, all the main forces of the villains who led the raid were concentrated on our 5th team.
“We are still investigating that matter.”
“If you’re doing your research, it looks like I’m right about what I expected.”
“What was Seojin thinking?”
“What would you like? It means that there is a franchise inside the academy.”
I didn’t say it back, I just mentioned the inside spy openly.
It will not be a single student. It is very likely that they are faculty members.
Or it could be a student handed over information from a faculty member.
Either way, this is bad news for the academy.
In my opinion, Han Ji-yoon was silent for a while before speaking.
“For now, we are looking at that possibility.”
“When you say it’s a possibility, you’re not saying you’re 100% certain.”
“Even before, efforts to infiltrate the academy by villains or plant collaborators continued. However, until now, they have all been discovered and blocked in advance.”
“But there’s no law saying it’s forever.”
“… Yes.”
Did I mention that there is no tree that cannot be felled by taking ten shots?
I wonder if the walls of the academy, which endured so well, will eventually crumble.
“Since that happened in the end, you must be burning your stomach black, dean.”
“You are very concerned. Because I can’t pinpoint and suspect anyone.”
It is a franchise that has broken through the strict boundaries of the academy and established itself.
At that level, there was no way he would do anything that looked strange in the eyes of others.
It probably won’t be easy to find because he’s hiding himself thoroughly.
‘It would be great if I could come out and find out the spy in a good way.’
But unfortunately, I don’t know anything about the spy.
It’s not that I can’t remember. In the first place, the spy was not mentioned in the novel.
There was no expression of who he was, who he was in contact with, or even suspicious.
There are two possibilities. Or something I can’t remember.
Either that or a trigger that was supposed to work later suddenly worked.
Whatever it is, it’s not fun. An academy with Frakchi.
“For now, this story ends here. It just seems like my chest is getting stuffy for no reason.”
“Isn’t it like aftereffects?”
“It is not. The doctors did a very thorough search.”
This is what Ma Hak-jun and Han Ji-yoon have to do. If I mention more, it’ll only give them a headache.
And since both of them are trustworthy people, they will definitely find out the spy.
When we returned the topic, Han Ji-yoon smiled as if she was grateful.
“Did anything special happen while I was losing my mind?”
“Why not? There was. A lot of that too.”
After Han Ji-yoon said that, she suddenly held out something in front of me.
It was a collection of various Internet articles.
Oh my gosh. These are all articles related to me.
‘Pray for a long time. Let’s see, to give a rough summary… .’
An unidentified person with extraordinary powers who fought a fierce battle with Elder!
The main character is a civil servant who is currently working in the ability measurement department!
Accidentally went out to the academy as a dispatcher, but was active in this job!
Even the main character is the one who even shook hands with Irina the other day!
Even in the last villain city raid incident, he showed great fighting skills!
Our society has not collapsed yet! There are these hidden heroes!
“… Wow.”
“How is it?”
“Everything I see is cringing.”
“Aha! Everything is written like this these days. So people can see it.”
Hey, you have to pull aggro so he can come and see you or curse at you.
Still, isn’t this a little too cheesy? Whoever sees it will know that he saved the world.
“You’re not expecting this situation, are you?”
“I did. I did… .”
I didn’t know that this many articles would be scattered all over the place.
“I thought the dean and professor would step up and set up a smoke screen like last time.”
“At that time, eyewitness accounts were different, and Elder was not injured. But this time it’s different. To academy students, to talented people belonging to the country. In addition, Kwak Hyuk, that person left with an X scar carved on his chest, holding a broken spear.”
It’s something I did, but hearing from others like this makes me think I’m crazy.
How did you think of having a fight with Elder? Unless you’re crazy about wanting to die.
They are called demigods. It’s not just because he’s strong or because he has this ability.
S-classes can be said to be truly incomprehensible.
Turn into a shadow, or just jump and fly away.
Like acting calmly even though your heart is hurting and opening up.
‘This Han Ji-yoon right now in front of me is originally a monster.’
With one good swing of the sword, it cleanly cuts through an apartment building.
The blade does not have to come into direct contact. Magic power is enough.
Anywhere Han Ji-yoon could see was within the range of the sword.
However, since I like the original person, I have been called here and there.
There were often cases that showed up late, like this one.
‘Should I say it’s always the invisible penalty of the strong.’
S-rankers are tied to society because they can’t give up being human.
The elders don’t get along well with each other, so I’m restrained in case I get caught.
Those with special powers don’t slaughter the villains at random because they’re bothered by the social gaze.
Even villains cross the line in a narrow way because they do not want the world to disappear except for a few.
In this way, everyone is holding a strange penalty.
Come to think of it, all people with special abilities possessed that part without even knowing it.
Like strong ones, magic is temporarily weakened in a hot place.
If Yudasom is not at the forefront of the battlefield, his healing ability is reduced.
And if I’m not blocking someone, I’ll become a civil servant or something.
“We are almost there.”
“I see. If you go forward here and turn left, you will see a laundry. You can build it there. I live right upstairs.”
“You’re just getting ready, aren’t you?”
At the sudden question, I looked at Han Ji-yoon with the meaning of what it meant.
“I thought it might be better to move. I think the above will probably recommend that as well.”
“Is it for safety reasons? Is my identity exposed?”
“There are things like that, but I’m taking care of Mr. Seojin in case he’s bothered. I don’t know if you know it, but it’s getting the attention of the public. It’s not as pleasant as I thought.”
I’m not joking, I mean it from the bottom of my heart.
Han Ji-yoon added that and told me to seriously consider moving.
‘Isara.’
As far as I know, Baek Seo-jin originally lived here for several years.
That’s why, if he was the original person, he might have very little regrets here.
‘But not me.’
First, the house must be spacious. Whether you live alone or whatever, that’s fine.
Do you know the misery of not having a space to put a clothes dryer between the desk and the bed?
I heard that the country would let me move in, so I should go right away saying, “You’re cool.” cancer.
“Were you here? The laundry that Mr. Seojin mentioned.”
“Ah yes. Here you go. I think you should stop here.”
As soon as I open the door, Han Ji-yoon follows me and gets out of the car.
After that, he looked around a few times and nodded.
“Isn’t it a bit empty?”
“Nope. It’s quiet and nice. It’s better than being noisy.”
After saying that, Han Ji-yoon sneakily opened the entrance door.
To think that he treats patients even though he is 100 percent well-behaved.
I was so grateful that I smiled without even realizing it.
“You don’t have to worry about going to work.”
“Yes?”
“The dean requested it, and Mr. Seojin’s department also accepted it. I suffered a major injury, and although the treatment was complete, there would be a psychological shock, so I took a good rest for about three days… .”
At Han Ji-yoon’s words, I thought about it for a while, then shook my head.
Are you surprised by my apparent refusal? What about Han Ji-yoon? and salivate.
“No way, are you going to go to work tomorrow?”
“Yes. And coincidentally, tomorrow is a weekday. If it was a weekend, I would have skipped it, but if it was a weekday, of course I had to go to work. My body is fine and I was discharged.”
“But permission to rest more… .”
“Thank you so much for caring. The same goes for Professor Jiyoon Han and the dean. But isn’t there anything else that needs to be done? If you are a public servant, if you are a person who receives taxes, you have to work harder.”
Now I really can’t be late.
I was the one who made such a fuss with Elder and even hurt him.
If so, it’s pretty obvious what will happen in the future.
Because of this, not only me but also the students have to grow faster.
My return will be a good stimulus to those students.
The news of the fight against the Elder must have had an impact in one way or another.
“… Mr. Seojin is such a great person.”
“It seems to me as well. A mediocre civil servant fighting Elder. I think this is why the expectations of public officials are too high. Anyway, thank you for bringing me here. See you at the academy tomorrow. Professor Jiyoon Han.”
“You can call me comfortably. “Professor, don’t use such hard titles.”
“uh… Then, excuse me. Mr. Jiyun.”
Then, Han Ji-yoon smiled as if she liked it.
