151. Butterfly Effect (2)
“There were sixteen kidnapping cases discovered over a few days. “Fifteen cases, excluding one, were related to demons.”
“Fifteen cases related to demons…?”
Baek Seol-hee calmly nodded her head.
“Okay. Fortunately, all of the kidnapped people were safe. “Maybe they need a living sacrifice.”
I made a serious face at her words.
‘Was there something like a kidnapping incident at this point?’
No. There was none.
No matter how much I searched through the main story and each character’s personal story in my head, there was no such ugly incident at this point.
What can I say about a story coming out during the academy’s summer vacation period in a pretty girl game?
Of course, the flower of pretty girl games!
Swimsuit Event!
That was also an incident that would not begin at this point, but only a week later.
However, it is said that there are a total of fifteen kidnapping cases of demons that Master has now searched and resolved.
‘Judging from the story, it is not an issue that can be taken lightly.’
This is just what I discovered during the short research period. There was a high probability that it was still moving underwater.
I wondered if what just happened might be the hidden story of a swimsuit event, but I couldn’t help but shake my head.
‘That has nothing to do with Mine. The swimsuit event is all about defeating monsters.’
Then there is only one thing I can think of now.
Butterfly effect.
Just as the slight flapping of a butterfly’s wings causes a typhoon on the other side of the world, subtle changes and small differences create unexpected variables.
The most likely conclusion was that the changes I had made since falling into the world of Velvet School Life created the current situation.
‘Of all the things I’ve done so far, there are some things I could never change within the game… And among them, if we only select those that will have a significant impact on the main story…’
I touched my lips and was deep in thought.
Two major things came to mind.
First of all, the Hunter Management Bureau.
A group that appears as an enemy in the early part of the game and is in conflict with Velvet Academy at every turn.
Immediately after the tutorial.
Kim Ji-won, a moderate who was originally in charge of the bureau, was deposed due to corruption, and Ryu Jin-ju, a hardliner, took his place.
However, just before the demons do anything with the fabricated data, the instructor and I kill Jinju Ryu.
The true corruption of the Hunter Management Bureau was revealed one step ahead.
As a result, a large-scale change occurred within the Hunter Management Bureau, and its status fell far below what it appeared in the game.
The trash that was eating away at the interior has been largely cleaned out.
For this reason, the current Hunter Management Bureau was not a group of annoying villains, but a group of helpers, even if they were begging.
The second was a mid-term evaluation that I took a while ago.
At the mid-term evaluation where there should have been casualties, all of the cadets survived thanks to the performance of me and my party members.
Since then, the prestige of Velvet Hunter Academy and Lina, which should have been undermined long ago due to the media and public opinion play, has become much stronger than before.
What is the position of the Mines in this situation?
Pisik─
‘······I feel sick to my stomach.’
The plan to overthrow the Hunter Management Bureau, which had been prepared for a long time, was ruined from the beginning.
And even the mid-term evaluation, which was thought to be a golden opportunity, actually ended up being helpful.
It was no wonder that the guys were anxious.
“Yes, you made an unreasonable number.”
“······Irrational number?”
“What does that mean?”
Im Ga-eul and Sophia asked with puzzled faces.
Baek Seol-hee nodded his head as if he agreed.
“Yes, just as you said, they took unreasonable measures. “Now these guys are doing things they would never normally do.”
“Yes, normally, I wouldn’t have taken the risk of doing something while the Maje-sama is burning like now.”
“Hmm, but they don’t seem to know that either, so they put a lot of effort into moving in secret. “It was too late even for me to notice.”
‘Wow, this thing was walking backwards like this and then stepped on the tail of a horse.’
At Lee Yu-ri’s request, I requested a light investigation, and thanks to that, I was able to find a clue to the butterfly effect.
“Well done. Jin Yu-ha.”
Baek Seol-hee stretched out her hand above my head.
He probably wants to pat his head again.
‘Uhm······. It’s good, but right now, the party members are watching from the side, so I hope you’ll be patient…’
Keuhum─
I quickly opened her mouth before she stroked my head.
“Yes, instructor. “Can we dig into this a little more?”
Then, Baek Seol-hee’s hand, which was approaching her head, stopped in midair.
She made a sullen expression again. She then opened her mouth in a cold voice.
“······I knew this would happen and called you. “Didn’t you bring those two with you because you guessed it too?”
No.
They just follow on their own.
Gaeul Lim and Sofia looked startled at the instructor’s words, and her eyes twinkled nervously.
“Hey, junior. Did you know that this would happen? I-I can’t continue like this, and I’m going to follow you…? Somehow, they allowed me to accompany them so easily! “You were trying to give me a chance!”
“Wow, Jin Yu-ha… Did he even notice that I was hiding in front of him and just walk right in front of me!? I thought it wasn’t caught, but it was all in the palm of my hand… But, is this proof that permission was given? “I rather like it.”
Lim Ga-eul and Sofia began to mistakenly believe something.
Baek Seol-hee stared at the two girls making a fuss in front of her.
And then he spoke in a blunt voice.
“Because we have to move secretly, it is difficult for other guys… However, this case is a kidnapping case. Those two guys would be of ‘very’, ‘nearly’, ‘slight’ help.”
“Ah, then the senior members of the Cheoksal Unit…”
“No.”
“Yes?”
“Originally, I wanted to finish this work on the Cheoksal Danwon line, but it was impossible because a request for dispatch support came in from Japan the day before.”
“······Then, instructor?”
“No, Maje went there with us, so I stayed here.”
‘Hmm, wait a minute, did this happen when Lina left the country?’
Even so, the fact that things happened in a hurry remains the same.
Honestly, I was at a loss as to what to do because of the sudden butterfly effect.
Master is with you from the beginning.
Could it be this reassuring?
“Then, let’s start the operation now.”
Baek Seol-hee lowered her eyes and spoke.
Lim Ga-eul and Sophia, who had just been following along, suddenly became involved in the operation.
“······Of course! The correct answer was to stick next to my junior. “Mochi comes out even while sitting on a massage chair!”
“Hey, I’ll work hard!”
Well, I didn’t think there was any need to worry.
And I also clenched my fists and steeled myself.
‘Such a surprise event…. Finish it as quickly as possible! Swimming- No! Because the kidnapped people are dangerous!’
It was definitely not because I was worried that there would be a disruption to the upcoming swimsuit event.
Really.

Let Baek Seol-hee kick her feet.
From Noble mtl dot com
Paang─!
There was a strong sound behind her.
She and her three cadets were running on the roof.
It was inevitable because it was much faster to travel in a straight line like this than to travel by car.
Baek Seol-hee glanced behind her.
‘······It’s coming along better than I thought.’
Even though Jin Yu-ha herself raised them, she was quite surprised by the two girls.
“hahahahaha, hahahahaha—I can’t have no presence anymore!”
“hehehe, hehehe—I can’t miss Jin Yuha’s appearance!!”
The two cadets were sweating profusely and breathing heavily, but somehow they were chasing after them.
‘I know Cadet Gaeul Lim as a supporter, and Cadet Sophia as a healer…’
No matter how much you assist your body with the ability to speed up,
It was not easy for an assistant to run on the roof like this unless he had considerable courage and training.
Among them, Sophia showed no signs of fear or fear even though she had only recently joined Utopia.
‘Basically, you have strong courage, and you have a great natural body… This guy is a genius too.’
Although she did not show it on the outside, Baek Seol-hee actually had a great interest in the Utopia Party.
Although it was something she was asked to do by a member, she created a YouTube ID for the first time in her life and even subscribed to the Utopia channel.
It was her natural duty as a teacher to check who her students were with and what activities they were doing.
Nevertheless, I knew little about those two cadets.
In the case of Lim Ga-eul, her activities were hidden to the extent of being suspicious.
In Sofia’s case, she was a healer who had just joined.
Still, let’s summarize what we know.
‘Im Ga-eul uses acceleration and slowdown, and Sophia can heal from a distance.’
Those two will definitely be of great help in rescuing survivors.
To be honest, he was a type of talent that was not found even in the Demon Killers.
I wonder where they attract such unique people.
‘The reason he brought those guys in means that Jin Yu-ha is taking this matter that seriously.’
When Jin Yu-ha first brought those two guys, Baek Seol-hee honestly felt a little disappointed.
Well, I thought this time would be an opportunity to be alone with her student and strengthen the bond between priests, but suddenly an uninvited guest barged in.
Glance.
Baek Seol-hee saw the face of Jin Yu-ha, who was following closely behind her.
“Faster, faster—!”
Jin Yu-ha desperately chases after her with a hardened face.
There were no other thoughts on that face.
Only a firm determination to defeat the demons and rescue the kidnapped people as soon as possible was visible.
Just by bringing those two here, I could feel how serious Jin Yu-ha was taking this incident.
‘······A disciple is truly someone who puts his teacher to shame.’
She was happy that they had more time to spend alone together, but then she realized how ugly she was.
Jin Yu-ha felt sorry for bothering her teacher at her own request and even gave her a gift.
Baek Seol-hee chuckled at the weight of her sword care kit felt on her chest.
‘Hmm, actually, there’s another one that’s exactly the same…’
A sword care kit that Chairman Lina gave to herself as a gift some time ago.
She said she didn’t even use a sword, but this was something she gave as a gift.
In fact, that sword care kit was the best among those Baek Seol-hee had ever used.
But, she wouldn’t be happy if she received the same thing.
It is a gift that the disciple prepared with himself in mind.
The weight felt was different.
Probably, the person who wants to use it more than anyone else is the one who thought of his teacher and saved up money to get it with great difficulty, even though he had nothing to live for.
The only gifts that Chairman Lina received were luxury goods that were not easily available.
Baek Seol-hee, who felt warm for a moment at the gift from her student, suddenly thought.
‘Hmm, it would be nice to have an exchange.’
If you give something you used yourself, wouldn’t it be a meaningful gift to your student?
While I was continuing to think like that.
The building I was aiming for came into view.
“We have arrived. “Go right in.”
Mc: Damn, my swimsuits!!!
