A similar conversation with the vice president took place.
The vice president also thought positively about what Seonghyeon would do, and promised full support.
Of course, Seong-hyeon had stopped trying to explain others by going to another country.
Other than that, there were many ways to invite everyone to explain or ask for cooperation.
But Sunghyun’s determination was firm.
Because there were things that could be obtained directly by going to another country.
Not long after returning from that time in the United States, I had to go abroad again.
Seonghyeon, who finished the conversation with the vice president, went straight home.
“Mom, I think I have to leave for a while because of that incident.”
“Who is not forcing you?”
Even though her mother thought, Seonghyeon was too busy.
Of course, being busy wasn’t a bad thing, but, strictly speaking, Seonghyeon was still an academy student.
Not 3rd grade, 2nd grade.
At the mother’s words, Seonghyeon barely endured the burst of laughter and answered.
“Who could do that… how many?”
It could have been none at all. Except for my mother right in front of me.
“Still, the academy is on summer vacation, so you don’t have to worry about it.”
“He’s so… When did he go to the academy?”
“That’s it…”
“Mommy doesn’t care what my son does, but I don’t want you to do anything dangerous.”
“I’ll keep that in mind.”
Her mother was also her husband and the person who lost Seong-hyeon’s father.
No matter how strong Seong-hyeon was or what kind of power he had, his mother hated Seong-hyeon’s suffering.
It was good to heal other people’s wounds, and it was good to gain their trust.
But why does the son have to suffer that pain instead?
Also, when I think of what happened to myself and my daughter because of this one ability, I began to wonder if the existence of a family might be a burden to my son.
“If our son … doesn’t cause trouble because of us…”
“mother.”
Seonghyeon stared straight into her mother’s eyes filled with guilt.
What was the cause of the guilt in those eyes?
It wasn’t that my mother was trying to do anything using Seong-hyeon’s power.
Far from making any undue profit, she recognized that her son’s world was different from her own, and just lived an ordinary mother’s life.
But I thought a little about why I was feeling guilty.
Only one reason came to mind.
It was almost kidnapped by the scheme of the red eyes.
The mother did not feel guilty about what she had done.
They began to feel guilty about what they and their younger brother had been through and their very existence.
“Where my mother is is where I will come back. So is my brother.”
After hesitating for a moment, Seonghyeon slowly approached her mother and hugged her slowly.

My mother also patted Sung-hyun’s back, who had grown huge because she was now unreliable, and answered in a voice that was a little bit guilty.
“…okay…”
“I will be leaving within this week. Do you still have what I gave you?”
“You mean that elixir?”
“yes.”
She was a mother who had no interest in Seong-hyeon’s world, but at least knew what Seong-hyun was doing.
He knew everything from going to the competition as a representative of the Academy to what happened in the United States.
It also saved the lives of 130,000 people.
He suffered similar pain instead.
“If something happens, don’t hesitate to use it. It won’t happen, though.”
“Don’t worry and go. As you said, where my son will return, I will be there.”
Sunghyun smiled at his mother’s words and slowly hugged her again and answered.
“My mother is not where I am going to return, but where my mother is is where I will come back.”
“…”
Seong-hyeon dropped her mother, who could not answer, from her arms.
Then he turned around without looking at his face.
“I’ll go out for a while.”
Seonghyeon headed straight to the guild building.
“Ah, do you really want to show up like that?”
“Adapt. Humans are animals of adaptation, aren’t they?
“Ha… yes, it should be. I lived for it once.”
“Professor Sung will come tomorrow.”
“already?”
In-hwan had heard Seong-hyeon’s simple plan, but he didn’t know that things would go so quickly.
“Didn’t I say there was no need to be in such a hurry?”
“There is a difference between being in a hurry and being fast.”
“So what should I prepare?”
“People will also come from DNN, associations, and academies, so we need to coordinate with them. Everyone will work towards the same goal, but the process may differ.”
“Huh, does this make you feel like the head of a company?”
“right. You are the gunman.”
At that, Inhwan laughed and asked.
“Then you?”
“What am I… an honorary job? It will be enough.”
“Good. So, are we going to put all those who will be educated into our guild?”
“It is your freedom. What I want is for the average of hunters to rise. Because that’s all.”
“This is my freedom…I need to change the guild office to a bigger one.”
For a moment, Inhwan’s eyes were filled with the desire of a businessman, not a hunter.
“rest of it? Academy and Association.”
“The academy will return the contacts to the faculty members who have worked at the academy. Because we need more people to teach people. The association takes care of the problems that arise as we scale up.”
“Huh… that’s perfect. There is no one to check and there is no institution.”
“This is something that cannot be checked. Be mindful.”
Instead of answering Seonghyeon’s words, Inhwan nodded his head resolutely.
“What are you doing tomorrow?”
“I will go to the academy for the next year. Tomorrow is one of those days.”
“Is that… coming?”
“what?”
“When meeting. I think there is a big difference between your presence and absence.”
“okay. what do you do?”
——————————————–
The next day, Seong-hyeon headed to the academy, and the principal and the principal came to the academy once a week and agreed to a detailed schedule.
Seong-hyeon, who finished all the work that had to be done at the academy, immediately returned to the guild building.
“We have plenty of money, so we need to expand as aggressively as possible.”
“no. The manpower is not yet ready for that, so aggressive expansion will definitely be a question of quality.”
“Are you saying that the academy’s abilities are questionable now?”
When I listened quietly in front of the room where the meeting started, it didn’t seem like it was going smoothly.
‘Should I go ahead?’
Just as I was about to open the door, I heard Inhwan’s voice.
“Gentlemen, this is a matter that does not even need to be discussed. The DNN side should proceed with the aggressive expansion according to the will of the DNN. This is not a business. manpower? It doesn’t matter. Get as many as you can and as fast as you can. Of course, the facilities needed here are also issues that DNN must solve, but you said that because it is something you can handle, right?”
“Yes, that’s right. Hakeno-sama made the basic frame himself, and we just have to do it like this.”
“Are you here to do what Hakeno-sama ordered?”
“you’re right. However, I am here because I am free to deal with the variables that may arise in the course of this work.”
“good.”
In-hwan seemed to be conducting the meeting better than expected.
It was said that Hakeno, the vice president, and the principal all had a huge favor for Seong-hyeon, but the people under him were a different story.
“Next is the association. Is the reason why the association has prevented the aggressive expansion of DNNs because the association has to solve the problems that arise as a result?”
“Yes? Absolutely not. As I said, I was in a position to put an end to the manpower issue first. Doesn’t it mean that all problems start with people?”
“That is correct. It’s rude to say, but I hope that the association will only pay attention to what the association is supposed to do.”
“…”
“We are not asking for advice on problems that will arise. A place to solve those problems. The concerns of the association are also issues we are well aware of. The solution is also simple.”
“Simple?”
“Yes.”
“What is the way?”
“You don’t have to accept people.”
“Yes? Then the loss of funds…”
The person on the association side who was trying to refute Inhwan’s words shut his mouth for a moment.
What I heard from the vice president at the beginning of the meeting and before he came here.

Money has nothing to do with it.
no matter how much
“Huh, that’s right. It was probably the first time something like this had happened, so I thought it was just common sense.”
“no. You only need to remember one thing in the future. Money overflows with rot.”
“I will keep that in mind.”
Talking about DNN and associations is over, now the only thing left is the academy.
“Finally, the academy. This is the most important question, but what are the opinions of retired professors?”
“Well… the academy will take care of it, so don’t worry.”
“Hmm…”
Apparently, since Inhwan is now a sophomore at the academy, it must have been a bit embarrassing for a professor to bow his head.
“Is there any progress? I don’t doubt the abilities of the academy professors, but at least you have to anticipate what will happen.”
“Don’t look too hard. Do you think it would be easy to bring back professors who retired in the first place?”
“…Professor, please use respectful language. This position is not because I am an academy student, but because I have all the authority of the guild leader of Guild A.”
“Hey, does being an academy student completely disappear if you get the guild leader’s authority instead? You are talking nonsense.”
“…”
Inhwan stopped talking for a moment.
When Inhwan stopped speaking, the professor was showing an expression as if he had won.
The reason Inhwan stopped talking was simple.
If we continue the conversation here, I think emotions will enter.
“If you don’t have anything to say, just let me get up. Anyway, I have to meet the professors.”
So the professor tried to get up from his seat, but he couldn’t.
“Who, who…”
A hand placed right on his shoulder.
No matter how hard he tried to get up, his hand didn’t move.
It wasn’t that he was crushing himself.
He just put it on his shoulder, and he just endured and endured as if he would not get out of that position.
“Would it make a difference if we met a few minutes earlier?”
“Ki, Hunter Kim Seong-hyun?”
“Who are you? Kim Seong-hyun?”
The professor slowly raised his head to face the owner with his hand on his shoulder.
“When my professors say that I am so stubborn, I can’t stand still. professor?”
“Yes, yes?”
“Let’s go. Wouldn’t it be a little different if you went with me?”
“Oh, yes. Oh, it’s an honor.”
“And I will tell the principal well. I think there are quite a lot of complaints because the professor seems to have a hard time persuading him.”
“Oh, no, I’m not complaining, that’s…”
“What are you doing?”
“Yes?”
“Not getting up.”
At those words, the professor tried to get up straight away, but the hand on his shoulder was immobile.
“That hand…”
“Are you waking up?”
“Oh no, that hand on my shoulder…”
“Huh… you mean you’re going to come out uncooperatively like this?”
The professor looked around with eyes begging for help.
Inhwan held back his laughter and tapped the table with his finger a few times, and only then did the professor realize Seonghyeon’s intentions.
“Oh, no. First, let’s finish the meeting and move on.”
“It’s not over yet. Well then, thank you.”
After speaking, Seonghyeon left the room again, then turned around and looked at the professor.
“Cooperatively.”
