father of darkness
god’s shadow
devil of demons
And the ruler of the dark district
A man called by many modifiers.
Don Vito Callione.
Even if he didn’t know him, dozens of men in black suits who appeared with him were changing the atmosphere in the parking lot.
Just standing there creates a sense of tension around you.
“Are you here, Don?”
As I bowed my head, my father frowned.
“disgusting. It’s not even a public place, what’s money with your family?”
“Still outside… … .”
“Wow!”
“Yes… … father.”
Originally, I said something was strange when I said I didn’t use respectful words, but in the beginning, it seemed that my father didn’t like the hard atmosphere in this family.
“Yeah, it was hard. Let’s go home.”
“… … Yes.”
Father pats his shoulder without even asking for the outcome and puts his hand on the handle to open the back door.
Then, suddenly, his movements stopped.
“Parnello.”
“Yes, boss.”
As my father calls out the name Farnello, a middle-aged man sitting in the driver’s seat gets out of the car and stands in front of me.
“father?”
“Eugene, be still for a moment.”

My father said so too, and stood next to a man named Farnello.
As if to protect me from something. When I carefully looked in the direction my father’s eyes were facing.
creepy.
Instantly, I felt an electric current flowing through my body.
An old man with light blue hair is walking towards this place silently holding the hand of the girl with a shy expression.
Although we can’t see the old man’s face, we can tell from the fact that his gaze is on us.
As the distance between the father and the old man grows closer, the air around him begins to feel heavier and heavier.
Parnello slowly puts his hand into his pocket, and the old man sneaks a hand on the sword on his left waist.

Meanwhile, seeing the faces of the old man and the girl next to him, I could understand the current situation.
A man who can radiate this kind of energy in front of his father, a man with characteristic azure hair and a setting to pamper his granddaughter terribly.
Swordsman Choe Sang-ho.
Known age is 94. However, if you look at his appearance alone, his appearance and extremely trained body that looked like he was in his 40s was enough to tell at a glance what kind of state he was.
Little by little, the distance between Choi Sun-ho and his father grew closer, and soon the two of them were less than 3 meters apart.
After releasing his hand from the handle, Choi Seon-ho slowly raised his hand and pointed in the direction I was in.
“there.”
The sound of something snapping together can be heard from Parnello’s pocket.
And at the same time, a tremendous sense of silence.
It was Yeon, the girl standing behind Choi Sun-ho who broke it.
“grandfather… … .”
When the girl who was holding Choi Sun-ho’s right hand murmured while pulling her hand, Choi Sun-ho’s shoulder sank.
She must have felt it too. If it goes on like this, something big is sure to happen.
At this, Choi Sun-ho melted his blunt expression with a smile and said to the girl next to him.
“Don’t worry, sweetheart. It won’t be what you think.”
After saying that, Choi Seon-ho immediately pointed to the side a little from where I was and said to us.
“I’m about to get in the car, but I want you to get out of the way.”
… … car?
I turned my head to check and saw a white SUV parked next to my father’s black sedan.
Is this car your best choice?
At this, a loud laughter was heard in front of him.
“When I asked whose car it was, I think it was the old man’s car. Excuse me for this.”

My father, who had been covering me with his back, quickly moved to the side and raised the corner of his mouth towards Choi Sun-ho.
Choi Seon-ho shrugged his shoulders.
“Is it your son?”
“Yes, we are Callione’s eldest son.”
As if the fight for momentum up to now was a lie, both of them relaxed their expressions and started talking.
“The eldest son of Callione is entering the academy. It’s fun.”
“Even if it’s me, my son shouldn’t be taught from a good place.”
“ha ha ha! Yes, parents are beings who can do anything for their children.”
Having said that, Choi Sun-ho trudges to the place where his SUV is, stops next to me and looks at me.
“Yes, son of Callione. Don’t expect me.”
“Yes, go back carefully. Inspiration.”
“What? hot ha ha ha! You really look alike! Well.”
Saying that, Choi Sang-ho patted my shoulder a couple of times with the hand that was on the hilt, and then got into the car.
The girl holding his hand also walks out and looks at her father, then gets into the car.
A pure white SUV exiting the parking lot.
When the battle of the two giants was over, Parnello pulled his hand out of his pocket and bowed his head toward his father.
“I will prepare for departure. boss.”
“Good job, Parnello.”
Parnello enters the driver’s seat again.
So, when it was just the two of us left in front of the car.
“Eugene.”
And my father, who kept his blunt expression until the end, calls my name.
“Yes.”
“Do you know who the inspiration was?”
“… … swordsmanship. It’s the best.”
“Hey, I knew it, but I was able to hold on to that inspiration.”
A thick hand rests on my chin and on my head.
“Like just before, never get discouraged in front of any formidable enemy. You are the son of me, Vito Callione.”
“… … Yes, father.”
Except for my father, I was very nervous about the appearance of a giant I met for the first time.
* * *
“Heh heh, Callione’s son is already that big. Seeing that you came to the academy today, it seems like you and I are the same?”
Choi Sun-ho, who was heading home with his granddaughter, speaks to his granddaughter Choi Yeon, who is still sitting with the corners of his mouth raised.
“Yes, I remember taking the exam after me.”
When Choi Yeon, her granddaughter, who was silently staring at her cell phone without even reading Choi Sun-ho’s expression, said that, Choi Sun-ho tilted her head.
“okay? So what about that kid? Is it worth paying attention to?”
At Choi Sun-ho’s question, Choi Yeon raises her gaze for a moment and thinks deeply about something.
“gun.”
“… … Are you talking about guns?”
“Yeah, it looks like he instructed the instructor to fire the gun through what he believed to be his subordinate.”
“Huh, did you mean you made the instructor shoot you?”
“Yes.”
Choi Yeon-ho, who was in the steering wheel, was K-hat! and burst out laughing.
“Really, he’s a funny guy too!”
“… … Is that so?”
Choi Yeon-ho, the granddaughter who tilted her head as if she did not know herself, erased her smile and immediately opened her mouth.
“Yuna.”
“Yes, Grandpa.”
“When you enter the academy, watch out for him.”
“Yes? He didn’t look like a dangerous guy.”
Choi Yeon, who heard Choi Sun-ho’s words, spoke as if it was surprising, but Choi Sun-ho shook his head and said.
“It’s not like that. What… … He stinks.”
“… … Smell?”
“Yeah, smell. A long time ago, when that Callione was a kid, that smell.”
He burst into laughter as he recalled the past of Choi Sun-ho who said that, and the past of a man who embarrassed him.
“My granddaughter’s academy life is going to be quite interesting.”
* * *
Finally, mail arrived from the Academy.
I already knew that I had passed, but it seemed that my trembling heart was unavoidable.
“What are you doing? Just open it.”

My father
“It is clear that I will pass, but why would you do that? It’s not something to worry about like that.”
“Still, isn’t that the academy’s pass?”
Even though he had a relaxed expression on his face, for some reason the on-the-rock glass his father was holding was shaking.
Are you possibly nervous?
“Ha, I see. what is this… … .”
Saying so, I opened the envelope with a paper knife.
A piece of paper visible inside.
As I slowly lifted it up, the first thing I saw was the Hangul word [Passport].
Up to this point, of course, I thought it would be Guri, but the problem was the writing below it.
[Secondary seat]
“Second seat?”
“What? Chaseok?!”

My father picked up the words that came out of his mouth without realizing it and stood up.
“Ah, wait a minute—.”
But despite my resistance, my father took away my pass.
“My son is the second seat. It’s a slope! Slope!”
At that moment, I heard the sound of running around, and a cute girl ran over to me.
“Chaseok? slope! slope! But Papa, what is the second seat?”
A girl who naturally climbs onto her father’s lap and takes her seat as if it were her original seat.
At the same time, the alarm went off on the smartphone.
[People Encyclopedia (N)]
[Name: Jiyoon Han Callione]
[Affiliation: Callione]
[Description: The youngest daughter of Vito Callione and the only sister of Eugene Callione. Since he lost his mother when he was young, he was brought up with a lot of love from his father, Vito Callione. He is in charge of the cuteness of Callione.]
It must have been my sister.
“Sir? Is the slope tightening?”
Jiyoon raises her head and looks up at her father’s face to see if she really doesn’t know what it means.
The expression on his father’s face, which had exuded a sense of coercion for a moment, melted in an instant.
“Well then, that would be great.”
And the warm-hearted talk of the couple started.
When I was gazing at the mysterious sight of the dark house godfather’s lips rising.
[Achievement Achievement!]
An alarm popped up on my smartphone.
Achievement?
When I pressed the alarm, I was automatically connected to the game app.
[Achievement (N)]
What kind of achievements were there.
Click once.
[Secondary seat of the academy (N)]
[ ?? ]
[ ?? ]
[ ?? ]

Apparently, the unlocked achievement was unlocked.
When I clicked [Secondary Seat of the Academy] to get rid of N, an alarm popped up.
[You have successfully passed the academy entrance exam!]
[Your entrance exam score is second. 2nd place out of 120 people!]
[Special rewards will be paid!]
[[New Talent: Bad Boy] has been paid!]
Are you giving me a new character just because I took the second seat?
I left the achievements window and looked at my info section.
【Name: Eugene Han Callione】
[Gender: male]
[Occupation: Heir of the Dark House]
[Talent: Bad Boy (N) ]
A really new feature was added.
[Bad Guy (N): Your charm increases in proportion to your infamy.]
A trait you’ve never seen while playing the game.
It seemed to be a characteristic made for concept quality.
If this is the case, I’ll probably have to go ahead with the plan a little faster.
“father?”
“yes? Oh yeah.”
Father wakes up to my call and looks at me again.

Meanwhile, his hand was stroking Jiyoon’s hair.
“I have something important to tell you.”
“… … You mean now?”
“Yes.”
Perhaps he saw the seriousness in my expression, the father stopped stroking Ji-yoon and tapped Ji-yoon’s waist.
“Ji Yoon-ah. Papa needs to talk to her brother, so stay in the room.”
“Yeah~”
Jiyoon gets up after hearing her father’s words and goes back to her room. Still, he seemed to listen to his father.
The father takes out a cigar and puts it on after Jiyoon goes up the stairs and hears the door closing.
His eyes suddenly turned serious again.
“Are you serious about what to say? Since you entered the second class, are you asking for an award?”
Deep cigar smoke comes out of his father’s mouth.
In the meantime, the father’s eyes are shining red.
To be honest, I’m trembling.
But, I knew I had to say it.
Because it was a necessary process for my plan.
“… … Now that I am an adult, I want to take the successor class.”

My father listened to me and looked at me blankly.
Then he took another cigar and asked.
“Are you serious?”
“I am serious. Shouldn’t I also be taking the successor class soon?”
Hearing my words, my father began to tap the table with his fingers.
I’ve seen that look while playing a game.
One of the habits of his father, Vito Callione.
It was an action that occurred when calculating something or thinking deeply.
As soon as his thoughts were cleared up, my father, who slapped the table with his finger a little more strongly, raised his head and looked at me.
“Yeah, if that’s what you mean, then do it. I don’t know what kind of wind blew you, who said you didn’t want to take the successor class until now… … .”
That’s because Eugene was originally a guy who sucked on the sweet things of family power but didn’t want to take responsibility.
But I was different. To survive in this damn world, the most important thing was to get help from the Callione family.
Father’s organization at any cost. He had to inherit the Callione family.
Cigar smoke leaked from his father’s lips, covering the distance between him.
A red eye can be seen through the gap. As I was swallowing saliva at the unknown aura that I could feel from that figure, my father finally opened his mouth.
“Once you start a successor class, you know that you can’t go back, right?”
“… … Yes.”
“Yeah, if that’s what you mean… … .”
After saying that, my father rolled the ring that was on the ring finger of his left hand toward me.
I took the ring slowly rolling towards me and lifted it carefully.
The letter C is engraved on the ring.
It was also the alphabet adorning the head of Calionae.
“That ring is a ring I made to give to my heir. It was originally meant to be given when you became an adult, but… … I didn’t know that your side would want to take the successor class first.”
Just as I was about to put the ring my father rolled on me.
“The moment it gets stuck, it will be irreversible.”
It seems to be one last warning. His father’s cold voice pierced his ears.
However, for me, who has already prepared everything in my heart, my father’s words just sound like a worried nagging.
Putting the ring on silently, I looked at my father and said.
“You will not regret it.”
Were you satisfied with how I looked?
Father smiles timidly.
“Yeah, don’t believe it. You have about a week left until admission?”
“yes.”
“In the meantime, let me tell you the basics. There are many things to learn, such as how to use the body and management. And during the semester, let’s go to school and get it.”
“All right.”
Father spoke so dignifiedly and got up from his seat and headed for the stairs.
jerk. jerk.
As the sound of footsteps moving away, I felt that the characteristic cramping energy disappeared as well.
I sighed lightly.
“Is step 1 passed?”
Ha, I was nervous. Wiping the sweat dripping from his body, he relaxed his body for a moment and leaned back.
It seems that it is unavoidable that he is still being pressed by his father’s momentum.
Is it Don Vito Callione? … .
Then a voice came from upstairs.
“I hate the smell of papa cigarettes!”
… … It seems that his father was hated by Jiyoon.
God father
Good father
