I Became The Academy’s Narrow-Eyes chapter 17

17 – Aidrin Teln

“What’s going on… ?”

“Why are the three of them- what the hell are you talking about-”

Of the eleven people in the exam hall, four were absent.

However, the inside of the exam hall was rather noisy.

The participants talked passionately about the office they entered and the people beyond the closed door.

“…”

Aidrin took a step back from that atmosphere and was thinking.

‘It’s a big deal… !’

The situation was settled, the excitement subsided, and I regained my cool.

Then regret came like a tidal wave, disorienting her mind.

‘Am I too lazy?’

It was his job to protect Drin and Kasha’s honor.

‘it’s crazy!’

Looking back now in my cool state, there was nothing more presumptuous than that.

How could you protect the honor of those two?

‘They both must have thought so… ?’

At the time, Aidrin thought the two of them were looking at her positively.

The gaze of the two was interpreted as ‘I am impressed that you are stepping out for my honor’.

But when I replayed the scene in my mind, the interpretation was completely different.

To ‘Isn’t something like Talln too hard on me?’

In fact, even when she vigorously defended them, their reactions were lukewarm.

Even Drebringer defended opponent number 348, not her.

“Come to think of it, number 348. That commoner- He seems to know Lord Drin. What the hell is the relationship between the two of you?”

Moreover, what mattered was that the reason she defended number 348 might have been her friendship with him.

If that’s true, he pretended to be an acquaintance of Rebringer who was officially given in front of others.

“…”

By this point, her complexion was pale blue.

‘I can’t believe I’m out of the eyes of Lord Drin… ?’

If Drin and Kasha were geniuses, Aidrin was a genius.

She was not in a position to worry about passing the academy entrance exam, but rather how high she would score.

She was confident of getting high grades.

Even before taking the exam, the future at the academy she envisioned was brilliant.

But now, the future at the academy was so dark that there was no light.

Sukdeok Sukdeok.

For the participants, Aidrin was out of the question right now.

Everyone was looking towards the office, talking about the four people.

But to Aidrin, it sounded as if the contestants were talking badly about her.

It seemed that he was staring at himself.

‘it’s over… ‘

Right now at this moment.

Aidrin felt her academy life was over.

It was only natural that he was out of sight of Rebringer.

‘No, no.’

It’s still too early to give up.

‘He stood up for me… ‘

Kasha Hanahan sided with 348 when Drin Rebringer took her side.

‘But, is it correct to assume that he supported me… ?’

However, when I thought about it again, it seemed that it was just raising an objection to number 348 rather than taking his side.

Actually, Kasha Hanahan may not have any interest in her.

No, considering her personality, she probably doesn’t care about herself.

“Ughhhhh… !”

She messed with her hair with a nervous gesture.

Her shiny, lush orange hair was scattered.

It was like a fox with a fluffy coat.

‘Why the hell am I like this-‘

Do I have to go through the terrible experience of worrying that I have fallen out of favor with Drin Rebringer and Kasha Hanahan?

‘It’s all because of him!’

No. 348.

None of this would have happened had it not been for the ridiculous stubbornness of that stupid, slit-eyed fellow.

‘I wonder if it’s possible for me to be number one, beating Sir Kasya and Sir Kasya!’

She recalled the 348 test records.

His movement was mediocre itself, not befitting the record of 50 seconds.

Conversely, the mana golem he faced was very special. Specially, it was lousy.

The man’s record came not because he was brilliant, but because he had a problem with the golem.

Anyone who sees it will think so.

Anyone can see-

“…”

Then another person pops into Aidrin’s mind.

Officer Cynia.

Aidrin recalled the look on the officer in charge of Sinaia who was reading the record number 348.

For the first time, interest and interest came to her eyes as she looked at the participants as if they were chicks.

It was the same with Drin and Kasha.

The two of them were looking at the records of number 348 very seriously.

It was as if I had witnessed something out of the ordinary.

“Ah, but even thinking about it again, it’s funny, that commoner.”

“So that is it. The golem moves stupidly like a block of stone. You don’t think there’s a problem with the golem, but you think you’re great.”

“Strictly speaking, it’s not a stone. The golem too. Also, that commoner’s hair.”

“Kuk-ku.”

If it was originally the same, it would have been correct to have the same reaction as those participants.

Adrin also had the same thoughts as those participants.

That nonsense record is literally nonsense.

That record wasn’t because of the man’s skills, but because of the trouble that happened to the golem.

However, the reaction of the three people, Kasha, and Sina, who kept giving it, caught my heart.

What the hell was that reaction?

‘…is there really something about him? Actually, the golem isn’t the problem- is he really that great?’

Aidrin recalled his image to judge.

Then, the imaginary man speaks with his characteristic blank expression.

-Hey~ No matter how much you think about it, don’t you think I’m a bit great?

Aidrin shook her head violently.

‘It’s not like that.’

That stupid fellow had a special talent that would catch the eyes of the three of them.

I can’t believe it.

I didn’t want to believe it.

‘but-‘

What matters now is not your own opinion.

His own opinion was of no value compared to the opinions of those three.

‘eww… ‘

Another terrible assumption popped into her mind.

As he was concerned, he really had a special talent that caught the eyes of the three people.

With that talent, he rose to a position so high that he could not surpass it, and he came to himself with a grudge.

– Of course you didn’t forget the grudge you had during the entrance exam, right?

with a very sinister smile.

“…”

Aidrin thought as she felt goose bumps on her back.

‘I can’t do this.’

To put it mildly, Adrin had a good way of living.

To put it bluntly, I tended to look into other people’s eyes a lot.

She tended to notice people in a higher position than herself.

Excessive.

‘He’s-‘

Now, Aidrin’s evaluation of number 348 has changed.

From a supposedly stupid guy to a target of attention.

Then the problem got even worse.

Just now, the person she pretended to be had gone from being an idiot, an acquaintance of Drin’s, to a person of interest, an acquaintance of Drin’s.

At that time, the Rebringer that was given to me in the office came out.

Silence soon passed over the place where the participants were making a fuss while watching Drin’s notice.

‘what?’

Aidrin also noticed her strange behavior while looking at her.

“… ”

At first glance, she seemed calm enough to be cold as usual.

But in the eyes of Aidrin, who is used to being self-conscious, she seemed a little upset now.

‘What was the matter inside… ?’

Then a group of three participants approached her.

They seemed to have participated in the test together, and they were the ones who had been talking most actively at the test site since earlier.

“Sir, you just said you were acquainted with number 348. How are you two related to each other?”

Did he burn the atmosphere by chatting happily with his companions?

It was a question without notice, case, or context.

The expression that curiosity precedes reason would fit perfectly.

Drin’s calm eyes turned to the man who asked the question on behalf of the group.

“There is no relationship whatsoever.”

“Ah, that’s right. thank you for the reply!”

They seemed to have come to their senses after accepting Drin’s atmosphere, and they hurriedly returned to their seats and were completely silent this time.

‘Idiots.’

Adrin felt sorry for those idiots, but at the same time she was grateful.

I didn’t have the courage to speak directly, so I answered the question that I couldn’t bring up instead.

‘No relation?’

It was the moment when the problem that bothered Adrin the most was resolved.

There was no need to worry about ‘touching Drin’s acquaintance and getting out of her eyes’.

According to Drin’s answer now, she and number 348 are really only acquaintances, but they are not in a special relationship.

It wasn’t that what she had just done defended him, it was simply that she did what she thought was right.

“ha… ”

Aidrin let out a sigh of relief with a look on her face.

“Everyone~ The results are out~”

The words that came out of the mouth of Sina, the officer in charge, were also good news for Aidrin.

“Review of 348 test records. The officer judged that there was a problem in the course of the 348 test and conducted a retest under the same conditions. retest results. The record of 348 times, at 3 minutes and 43 seconds – is also a pass.”

Number 348 was not an acquaintance of Drin.

Nor was he a person of interest with the skills the three should keep an eye on.

At this moment, all the problems that had been bothering Aidrin were solved.

“Ahh… ”

Aidrin managed to resist the fact that she almost collapsed in her seat.

A smile spread across her lips.

‘by the way-‘

Aidrin looked at number 348.

She had two impressions of him.

The two impressions were extreme as they contradicted each other.

A person of interest with a talent to keep an eye out for three talented people.

A foolish man who will fail in the second exam with nothing.

Aidrin assumed that if he had to retake the test, he would fail without fail.

But contrary to expectations, he passed the exam with great success in the retest.

That’s insignificant compared to the previous one, but by average standards, it’s a fairly decent record of 3 minutes and 43 seconds.

According to the records of the participants in the same group that Aidrin remembered, 3 minutes and 43 seconds was a record corresponding to the 6th place in the group.

‘I’m surprised?’

Aidrin saw him again.

The flimsy impression and light atmosphere still made him look dazed, but at least he didn’t look as pitiful as before.

At the point of passing the second exam, he was no longer a pathetic person who couldn’t even grasp his subject matter.

‘If you can do it well, why- Huh?’

Then I looked at the man who gave it to me.

“… ”

Then, as if expressing displeasure, Drin turned her head away from him mercilessly.

‘what… ?’

Drin defended the position of a man who stood by his record.

However, his record was invalidated.

Come to think of it, of course he was, and the face of the woman who defended him was also damaged.

Maybe Drin felt uncomfortable about that.

“… ”

He looked at Kasha next.

Then Kasha turned her head away from him as did Drin.

Perhaps, due to her personality, she despises him for not letting go of her obsession with records that are overflowing with minutes.

There was a feeling of being embarrassed somewhere, but it must be because of the mood.

“Because I knew it would be like this.”

“Tsk tsk, you look like a lowly person who doesn’t even know shame.”

“I didn’t even know the subject, but I was greedy.”

“As expected, he was a mediocre bastard.”

Then Aidrin heard the accusations of the participants directed at him.

“… ”

The man is now an object of disappointment to Drin.

An object of contempt for Kasha.

It became an object of contempt for others.

It was the worst.

The man was now facing the true worst, which Aedrin had been worried about could not be compared to the worst.

Aidrin thought, stunned.

‘This is not because of me… ?’

What put him in this worst situation?

It was because he had publicly questioned his records.

In fact, even if it wasn’t for her, everyone would have been suspicious of his record.

Also, if she hadn’t, someone else would have taken issue with his record.

A story in which she was the only one who did what someone must have done.

But now, Aidrin’s thoughts didn’t reach that far.

“oh my god… ”

Her expression contorted with guilt.

***

‘Oh, it’s sweet.’

I passed the second test safely and entered the waiting room for the third test.

[Quest Success – Guidance]

The quest has been cleared.

In the empty belongings window, there was a random box containing the maximum hero grade result, which was the quest reward.

I could say this with confidence.

today’s weather. Very sweet.

For some reason, Kasha’s quest had already been completed, so there was no need to obsess over the top spot in the entrance exam.

It was enough to pass the entrance exam without any problems, without being forced to use assassination techniques and getting caught up in trouble.

Kasha still doesn’t acknowledge me, but the quest is cleared-

For some unknown reason, Drin was swollen-

There were a few snags, but it was smooth sailing enough.

“If things go on like this, there will be no time left.”

Now, if the Gatcha works well here, it will be perfect.

Hwaryong point. To conclude this delightful moment, the box is opened.

“excuse me-“

“hmm?”

But right before I opened the box, someone started talking to me.

I put the inventory back in and looked at that someone.

There stood a fox-like woman standing in a booth with some fur.

“What about you?”

Aiden.

He wasn’t the main character like Drin and Kasha in the game, but he was a person who had his own weight.

And above all, the guy who just stood in the vanguard and took issue with my record.

‘what? Did you come here to do some tea-bagging?’

i knew i would Are you trying to make a confident face while saying the same thing?

I wanted to, but his appearance was somehow strange.

“You’re fine, it’s okay… ?”

He looked at me very carefully and said so.

‘What, why are you like this?’
