192 – 38. About yourself
Why?
Abel Legion, a hero who went to school as usual in a special occupation class today, felt something strange.
A special vocational class with no one in the usual classroom.
The missing student is Raphael. I heard that Raphael, who completed his ‘proof’ at the church last week, has become a saint among saints and is in the midst of a battle for influence in the church.
The reason I don’t appear at the Academy is because…… It was definitely disappointing, but that was it.
The duo we usually went with disappeared, but Namgoong Min still remained.
Since the last 2 Days & 1 Night, Namgoong Min and I have become close friends, moving together in many ways in class and seeing each other often even after school, to the point where I can’t even remember Seongja’s empty seat.
In addition, after obtaining the ‘real holy sword’ in 2 Days & 1 Night, Abel was leading a busy life, hoarding that power.
Even though he was completely preoccupied with the Holy Sword, he could clearly sense the strangeness of the classroom.
‘What on earth…? ….’
Everyone except the saint is in the special occupation class. Abel, Namgoong Min, the prince, the princess, a magician, a person with psychic powers, and even a wealthy person.
At most there were 8 people, no, now there are only 7 people, but we still have a group where we go together.
Usually he and Raphael go together, the prince and princess go together, the magician stays alone, and with Namgoong Min at the center, rich people and superpowers sit by his side.
Of course, since Namgoong Min is close to everyone, we often gather around him, but it’s usually like this when we take classes…… All.
Yes, it was like that.
But now?
“……Um…….”
Raphael is gone, so even though he is sitting alone, the rich man and superpower who should have been sitting next to Namgoong Min are far away.
Unusually, his entire body was shaking, and it was noteworthy that the two, who normally did not get along very well, were sitting next to each other.
Next to her, the princess was sitting in a similar posture, and the prince who accompanied her and the mage who usually walked alone were sitting right behind them, sighing.
Then what’s left……
“……Namgoong Min…….”
“Ah, warrior. Would you like to sit with me?”
“I’m fine…But the rich man and the superpower…”
“Well, why don’t you take care of it yourself? They are people who can control other people’s bank accounts with just one finger.”
Finch!
As Namgoong Min spoke with the same smile as always, strangely enough, the rich man and the superpower flinched greatly…… Even the princess?
The women had their hands placed on their thighs in a very correct position and were vibrating like crazy.
‘Why are you doing that?’
Abel had become somewhat insensitive to other people’s feelings after the gate accident when he was young, but even so, he seemed to be able to clearly see what the wealthy man, the psychic, and the princess were thinking.
Those three are harboring a sense of guilt……… Guilty? Really?
Who is that wealthy person? That superpower? That princess?
‘Am I crazy?’
As far as Abel knew, the three women who could only throw the guilt in her dog food were feeling guilty.
For a moment, I seriously wondered if I was crazy, but no matter how many times I watched it, nothing changed.
On the contrary, when Abel looks at them like this, given their personalities, they should have shown displeasure long ago, but instead, they are sweating coldly and keeping their mouths and eyes tightly closed.
Is that all? The prince and the wizard sitting behind them also expressed their apologies to Namgoong Min.
He was also human, so he was curious as to why they were doing that.
“Then…I’ll sit down…”
“Please sit over here.”
Isn’t that that and this?
Apart from curiosity, Abel did not want to be deeply involved with a wealthy man, a psychic, or a princess.
Because I’ve seen them since I was young, I knew their damn personalities well. Although the princess was kind, it was obvious that she was a pretentious person.
Well, they are not incompetent, so they will do well.
More than anything, Abel had something more important to say than their guilt.
“…Anyway…The Holy Sword…”
“Oh, what happened to that?”
“…Much…Better than the original sword…But…”
The holy sword I received(?) During a 2-day, 1-night trip.
I heard that Namgoong Min brought it to him while he was unconscious after being defeated by a former warrior named Namgoong Jisu at the collapsed city hall.
In fact, Namgoong Min was also fully qualified to be a
Warrior at the time he ‘pulled out’ the holy sword.
“As expected…You…”
“No, the only hero right now is you. I’m sorry, but I have no intention of withdrawing my thoughts.”
“……Why…….”
“As I said then, the hero is now the spiritual leader of Americans scattered all over the world. Because the hero is a
Warrior, the U.S. Government can still be maintained. Remember that.”
“……………….”
“You are also the American hero.”
…… There was nothing to say because it was truly a political opinion, and there was even less to say because it was truly a political story.
As an individual Abel, it seemed like Namgoong Min was much more of a warrior and would do well in all her tasks, but as Namgoong Min said, Abel Legion is not just a warrior.
He is a representative of the United States, and at the same time, he is the spiritual pillar that Americans regard as their identity.
He puts down his warrior duties and hands them over to the people of the Korean Empire? If that happens, what will happen to his country?
The nation called America was something his grandfather tried his best to protect.
‘……… I’m just sorry.’
To his grandfather, who has a weak-hearted grandson, and to Namgoong Min, who tried to pass on this burden.
And………
“It’s good to be lost in your thoughts, but it’s almost time for class.”
“……That’s right…….”
“Have you done your homework?”
“……Ah…….”
“After all, that was our promise, right? I promised to put the hero at the top of his grades… Now, here’s a transcription of your homework.”
But now he is not America’s hero.
First of all, I was also a student at Romance Academy where grades were important.
Abel, who was slowly beginning to look at her own mission, also first accepted the homework given by Namgoong Min.
‘Okay, first of all, it’s about grades.’
The first year will soon end and the final grades will be announced.
And at that time, if you rank at the top, you will receive a challenge……
‘Soon, the time will come.’
…… Because I have to challenge Charles Teddy Bear.
For now, Abel erased her distracting thoughts and focused on the professor entering her classroom.
“Now, let’s learn about algebra today… Shall we?”
There was a minor incident where a professor who came into the classroom for a moment was shocked when he saw the rich man and the super-powered person.
Abel smiled after attending class again today.
‘Ah…….’
I don’t know anything.
Really.

“Let’s see… For a moment.”
“…Getting ripped off…Trouble…”
“Oh, don’t be a damn thing, let’s take a look!”
“You…Are not my type…”
“f*ck, I like fortune tellers too! Let’s talk for a bit while that bastard goes to the bathroom!”
From Noble mtl dot com
After the theory class, Abel was flipping through his textbook while pretending to be diligently reviewing the algebra the professor was talking about, and a rich man approached him.
According to her words, Namgoong Min had gone to the bathroom for a while. At best, I have about 5 minutes of free time.
What on earth are we talking about in that short period of time?
“……From a person with superpowers…To a princess…?”
“Yes! The prince behind me and Lucas all feel the same way? We don’t have time!”
“But… Why should I…?”
“Right now, you are the only person who can talk to Namgoong Min.”
The only one? What kind of bullsh*t is that?
Abel, who was usually rubbing against the seat next to Namgoong Min as if he were going to start a fire, said something like that, and Abel honestly couldn’t understand what she was saying.
As if his thoughts were clearly visible on his face, the great rich man, who was in tears for a moment, soon took a deep breath and lowered his voice.
“Well, we and the fortune teller… Had a bit of a fight.”
“…Be precise. You were just fluttering your mouth needlessly.”
“Hey, you evil b*tch! You said it was a good idea, but now you’re cutting it off!?”
“At least I don’t have a shallow snout like some suspected disease patient.”
“This f*cking b*tch…!”
“Stop, the first priority is to talk to the hero… Hero, as the great rich man said earlier, you are the only one who can talk to our people right now.”
“…Please explain…”
“To put it simply…Well, we were caught pretending to have lost all of our people’s assets…In stocks.”
“……………….”
…… What is this violent princess saying now?
What about all your assets? Did you get caught for hiding it by pretending you lost money with stocks?
‘From what I heard earlier, it seems like the cause is a large fortune…….’
It is none of Abel’s business who discovered such a thing.
However, even he had no choice but to wrap his head around the fact that he hid all of Namgoong Min’s assets by pretending to lose them in stocks.
“……The reason…?”
Looking at it, not only the rich man, the psychic, and the princess, but also the prince and the mage behind them must have been part of the same group.
If you think about it that way, the only person who had nothing to do with this incident was Abel, who was only focused on the holy sword.
‘It seems like they are trying to do something in secret…….’
It’s the same with the manipulation of the bracket during the last exchange meeting, and because the rich, the super-powered, and the princess tend to move for Namgoong Min without his knowledge.
This incident must have been part of that. So I had to at least hear the reason.
“He… Looks like he will return to his original world soon.”
“……Could it be so…That you’re trying to tie Namgoong Min up with his debt?”
“…Yes.”
“What is this?”
It was such a shock that even my speech, which had been limp for a moment, returned to its original state.
Well, if you really ask me, it doesn’t make sense.
Abel couldn’t believe that these three women, who were obsessed with Namgoong Min and wanted to die for him, were thinking of such things.
“Don’t you know Namgoong Min?”
“I know our people better than anyone else!”
“…Then…You should have believed…And waited…If Namgoong Min…Of course…He would have…Consulted with us…”
“Well, that is.”
“…You…Are just…Declared witnesses…”
The three women just lowered their heads despite the verbal abuse(?) Calling them indebtedness.
You can call it dependency, obsession, whatever. They just wanted to eliminate even the slightest possibility that Namgoong Min would leave.
I was caught secretly moving around under the pretext of doing it for him and for Namgoong Min. And in its worst form.
‘Nam Goong Min told me about his childhood during the trip.’
My parents started trading stocks to overcome business failure, but ended up relying on a pseudo-fortune teller.
In the aftermath, Namgoong Min is a Who absolutely hates fortune telling. Naturally, there is bound to be resistance to things like stocks.
Nevertheless, Namgoong Min would have trusted these women to be friends and close friends.
Since we kicked it in the back, it was bound to end up like this.
“…The prince…And Lucas…?”
“……It’s the same. I have nothing to say.”
“Me too…Yeah.”
They were unable to win halfway due to their younger sisters’ threats and became a gang, but they had no idea that things would go this far.
Although they were not as strong as the three women who led the plan, Kim Seong-il and Lucas could not raise their heads in front of Namgoong Min because they were the ones who ultimately recommended the stocks.
‘I never thought something like this would happen while I was touching the holy sword…….’
Now I understand their guilt and why the great wealth is approaching so desperately.
Of course, Namgoong Min will move with Abel until class ends and he returns to base, and he won’t be able to talk to him during that time.
There was also a rumor that they would visit him separately after returning to base…… It seemed like these women wanted to resolve the situation as quickly as possible.
“……Um…….”
“Well, it’s very simple. All you have to do is tell the fortune teller and arrange for reconciliation…!”
“………I don’t like it…”
“Yes!……Huh? What?”
“……..Your fault…….. Face it…… and solve it…….. Rather than trying to rely on others….”
“……You.”
“Now…The one who…Looks at me like that…Is…A red flag…A very wealthy person.”
Okay, I understand what happened. I understand the plan they made, and I also understand why the prince and the mage participated.
But at the same time, I could very well understand the sense of betrayal that Namgoong Min must have felt.
That’s why Abel only snorted even when the rich, the psychic, and the princess glared at him.
Rather, he expressed his emotions a little more actively than usual.
“Try to be like Namgoong Min, who you like so much.”
“What?”
“…Namgoong Min…Even when you hated him…And pushed him away…He approached you with a smile.”
──Surely you can’t do that? Called.
He just laughed at everyone who was suspicious.
