16. Persona Gate Practice (2)
The 9th Star Tower, Star Cloud Cafe Terrace.
According to the school rules, any student of Stella could use the space, but due to the high price of desserts and the territoriality of the aristocrats, this place was mostly used by the nobility.
In particular, the terrace is a nobility with a faction.
They mostly used it when they had meetings with their own clan members, but it must have been to show off their power despite the fact that the club was insolvent.
It was the same with Hong Bi-yeon. If he doesn’t show his abilities regularly, he’ll look ridiculous to other nerds, so he shouldn’t give up on them.
‘It tastes awful.’
I listened to the stories of the girls while forcing myself to drink tea that didn’t even fit my palate.
“Oh, really?”
“Is that so? Corden Baron’s Chair
You gave me a bouquet of flowers… …
“Romantic!”
“is that so? I was embarrassed.”
“As a woman, I am so envious. I do not know where such a man is.”
It was a conversation between ordinary noble girls. The topic of conversation was the same every day.
What kind of clothes are fashionable these days? What kind of jewelry is fashionable? What food is fashionable?
Who is dating?
Who was in an accident?
Someone confessed, but it was the car.
A feast of boring, exhausting conversations with no nutritional value. Although he did not like the seat itself, Hong Bi-yeon kept it upright.
Each and every one of us gathered here are the children of those in power who are said to be introverts. There was a reason for bringing them together like that.
“Has the princess been reading the Divinity Dictionary since a while ago?”
“Oh, come to think of it, there was a Familiar contract ceremony after the second exam was over, right?”
“Aha! You are already preparing in advance. That’s great. I am a divine dictionary
I would not even understand half of it.”
“So. After all, the princess has something special, isn’t it?”
The subject line suddenly twisted and became flattering towards himself, but that’s not bad. It also happens quite often. But the boredom was the same, so Hong Bi-yeon answered roughly.
Then, naturally, the subject of the girls shifted to the other side.
“Oh, did you hear that? My father told me to keep this a secret… …
“What is it?”
“This time, the ‘Sequential Random Number Crossing Method’
Stella’s assistant released it and it was a riot, right? But you all know there is a co-author there, right?”
” Absolutely.”
“The co-author is actually… … You said you were one of Stella’s students?”
“yes? Is that for real?”
stand tall. Hong Bi-yeon’s hand, who had been sipping free tea, stopped moving for the first time. After a while, an interesting topic of conversation emerged.
“Ah, it’s still an unresolved problem for 300 years, but is the student a co-author?”
“But my father was convinced.”
“ah… … Miss Rachel’s father is the Director of Intelligence, so I’m pretty sure.”
“But who? As a student, it is enough to solve unsolved problems. He must be from the Alchemy Faculty, right?”
Also.
It seems that those who did not dig into the details of the Director General of the Intelligence Agency and so on did not understand the ‘co-author’.
However, Hong Bi-yeon was able to find out by accident while investigating someone’s back.
white rumor.
The fact that he is the co-author of Alchemy Engineering.
“Then why did you keep your identity private?”
“Iknow, right. In fact, I just put my name on it, and it doesn’t mean that I didn’t help?”
“Oh, it could be. If that’s the case, I’m embarrassed and sorry, so I’ll keep my identity private.”
“Ho ho ho.”
The question the girls have is Hong Bi-yeon
had a cold
Why? what is the purpose For what reason?
“Princess? What are you worrying about?”
Then, suddenly, one of the girls took an interest in her, and Hong Bi-yeon was barely able to come to her senses.
“… Nothing.”
“Oh, was that because of the upcoming Persona Gate practice?”
“It is. The princess must be confident this time too, right?”
Heung Bi-yeon shook her head slightly at their words.
‘Persona gate practice… …
Persona Gate is a space completely separated from common sense in reality.
Unlike dungeons with a simple structure that can be cleared by killing the boss or destroying the core, the Persona Gate requires a lot of preparation and study in advance because it can be cleared safely only after understanding the ‘pattern’ and ‘gimmick’ and destroying it. need.
Starting with concentration analysis of persona gates, spatial strain, topology,
It required a great deal of mathematical knowledge, such as soul isolation, and there were many things to know in advance, such as understanding and memorizing the thousands of patterns and possibilities of Persona Gate… .
The most important thing is fighting ability.
If you can’t fight properly, no matter how smart you are, you can never clear the Persona Gate.
In fact, as the reason for nurturing magic warriors is to block the Persona Gate of the Black Demons, it can be said that this is the most important subject.
Persona Gate Room to be held this time
The team will be made up of 4 to 18 players, and the key is how to attack in cooperation with each other.
Stellar’s first-year cadets are average class 2, and since it’s their first time in actual combat, it’s not easy to attack the Persona Gate, which is scheduled to be prepared at 3 risk, no matter how the elite gather.
Most likely, the majority will fail.
However, the scoring part is based on whether you grasped the gimmick of the persona gate, how you cooperated and worked with your team members, and how you responded to the enemy’s attack or emergency.
It is not necessary to succeed in
Of course, it was a persona gate practice that most of them had no choice but to fail, but Hong Bi-yeon definitely wanted to succeed.
Only then will you be able to prove that you are superior.
Only then… will I be able to be recognized by my mother.
‘I wish I could match up with useful guys… …
After the meeting at the cafe, on the way back to the dormitory.
Hong Bi-yeon, who was heading to the dormitory alone,
The soldier called
“Biyeon-ah!”
stand tall.
I’m not used to it, a voice that feels like it’s going to scab over my ears. However, the most feared and hated voice in this world.
Slowly, turn your head.
There, a woman with red hair that did not resemble her at all, tied behind her back, was smiling brightly with a relaxed smile in full bloom.
“••• Princess Hong Si-hwa.”
“Mommy, call me sister.”
As an illegitimate child and an illegitimate child, her half-sister, Hong Si-hwa Adolevit, was forced into an adversarial relationship by fate.
She had come all the way here.
“What did you come here for?”
“Well. I’m just here to see my brother’s face, do I need a reason? Just recently, something interesting happened.”
That’s a lie. Because she never moves for no reason.
“Ugh… Don’t stare at it like that. Yes, there is actually another reason.
Recently, at this school, there was a very interesting commoner. •••It is also the commoners who fulfill the ‘chivalry’ that has now disappeared from the world.”
how do you know that Questions like that are pointless. Because Hong Shi-hwa knows everything.
So, when Hong Bi-yeon hardened her expression, Hong Si-hwa covered her mouth with one hand and smiled pretending to be a young lady.
“Mom, I think my brother is also interested in the knight? It’s worth it~ A knight who gives his all for the bishop… … Really, that is the romance of all ‘princesses’.
okay?”
Princess’s dream. At first glance, it may seem that he hasn’t lost his childhood feelings, but that was definitely an act of slicing.
In any case, both Hong Si-hwa and Hong Bi-yeon were princesses, and in order to become ‘Queen’, it was necessary to secure unique talents like Baek Yu-seol.
What if a commoner with no country, no hometown, no parents, and no affiliation were talented people with such overwhelming talent… … .
There’s no reason to hesitate.
“Anyway, I’m just saying that I’m very, very slightly interested in that commoner. May I ask you to introduce me?”
“If you want to see it, you can visit it in person.”
“Ah, I heard that the prominent officials from the tower were already rushing in and they were kicking it? He didn’t seem interested in anything.
As she said, there was something strange about Baek Yu-seol.
The other day, after solving the Necromancer case, I think back.
It is said that countless horse towers and corporations have sent love calls to him. But strangely, he turned down all the love calls.
At the time, I didn’t think much of it. But this time it’s the same again.
Embarrassed or whatever, if you just reveal your name, your path to success will be open to the public, so why would you kick it yourself?
Baek Yu-seol is undoubtedly a commoner.
No matter how hard he tries to grab all of that golden rope, it’s not enough.
It was suspicious of you that you were trying not to reveal it.
The problem, however, was that even after conducting a background investigation, nothing could be found.
As if trying to completely erase his existence from the world, his past was hidden in a veil.
“It’s a scary thing to go there first and then to make a difference. Do you know anything about it?”
When Hong Bi-yeon did not answer and turned her head, Hong Shi-hwa walked over to her.
He suddenly turned his head to the place where his gaze was directed.
“So, you can introduce me to that kid. yes? You’re a classmate, so you’re really close, right?”
“It’s done. Let’s see.”
“Your brother is so rude~”
I tried to playfully quarrel, but Hong Bi-yeon didn’t even pretend to listen. Then Hong Si-hwa said in a sarcastic tone.
“Princess Hong Bi-yeon, why are you being so picky?”
Then, Hong Bi-yeon’s expression wrinkled.
lost.
“… … I am not a princess, but a princess who has the right to inherit the throne.”
“I guess it’s because the ‘eldest sister’ is dead~!”
At the obvious provocation of Hong Si-hwa, a strong, bloody vein grew around Hong Bi-yeon’s eyes, but it quickly subsided.
be used to.
That psycho-like bitch, without blood, tears, or emotions, even the death of her kind and beautiful older sister who treated them like her parents was nothing.
It’s just a crazy bitch who uses it as material for her feet.
‘•••calm down. It will be settled later when I become queen.’
With that in mind, when I left the room, Si-Hwa Hong did not follow me. I just stand from afar, smiling like a lively child who lacks something.
After walking for a while, Hong Bi-yeon completely escaped from Hong Si-hwa and sat down on a nearby bench.
“ hoo hoo
“Princess. Are you okay?”
“Lin.”
When Goterin in a dark suit approached him and offered him a cold drink, it was only then that Hong Bi-yeon was able to put her mind at ease. She was the only person Hong Bi-yeon could lean on after Hameril. Because we’ve been together since we were little.
“•••I was a little annoyed. It’s okay though. It’s not about dealing with crazy dogs.”
“Sorry for not being of any help.”
“done. What help are you giving?”
Saying that, Hong Bi-yeon tried to get up.
Then, as if forgot, Goterin pulled something out of her arms.
“Come to think of it, while investigating the commoners you mentioned earlier… … I was able to get this by accident.”
“Is that••••••♦?”
The envelope that Goterin handed over had Baek Yu-seol’s name written on it.
“It was submitted by Baek Yu-seol as an assignment for a certain subject. There is a story written about his past history. I couldn’t bring the original because it was Stella’s assignment, but it’s a copy.”
“okay’?”
it’s an assignment In fact, there was also a class time to write down such content.
“Ugh… .”
I was looking forward to it a bit. No matter how much I researched and robbed, no information came out.
What was his past?
Out of curiosity, she opened the envelope.
R.I.P. her mood for the rest of the week, lol. Especially if this song will stuck in her head.
🤣
Ah, this the one where he wrote the dear mother lyrics wasn’t it? Another misunderstanding incoming~
