I Became the Leader of Academy City chapter 40

40 – Discipline 18. The leader blocks the plan of the school villain (4)

I think of the refreshing protagonists that appear in various popular media.

These protagonists show a resolute side at important moments and easily overcome any adversity.

It was an image that served as a great reference for me in putting on the mask of a leading manager.

Of course, my reality was different.

I was a coward.

I felt restless every day, weighed down by the burden that came with my position, and I struggled to achieve my wish by beating myself somehow.

But I don’t think that’s a bad thing.

Rather, being a pretentious coward, I believe that the fruits of my hard work will ultimately lead me to a happy ending.

So do your best.

Even though the thought that it was already too late was gnawing at my head and trying to make me feel ashamed, for now I just did what I could.

I ran to the junior who had his side scratched by claws.

He bent down on one knee and looked at the child.

“Manager… sir….”

“Don’t talk.”

My junior looked at me with a bloodshot face, struggling to catch his breath. I could hear the sound of air escaping between my teeth. The weakly opened eyes did not look strange no matter when they were closed.

‘The wound is deep.’

The inside of the torn school uniform. His blood was flowing out as if a faucet had been turned on from his side, which the junior was holding tightly.

I immediately took out the radio.

Even though the smartphone didn’t work, the walkie-talkie worked well.

“Send the treatment drone in my direction immediately! Hurry!”

In succession, I pressed my junior’s side tightly instead. It was intended to prevent blood loss, but it had no dramatic effect.

Still, you must not give up.

Bleeding must be prevented as much as possible until a treatment drone arrives.

That was something I could do.

My breathing gradually became rougher.

‘Calm down and control your facial expression.’

I encouraged myself and calmed down my emotions.

Isn’t it the law that a leading manager should not show anxiety?

“Cough…” !”

The junior coughed up the blood in his mouth. Still, I couldn’t help but laugh.

“Aha…. Boss… , sick….”

“Don’t say anything.”

“I’m fine…. You don’t have to help me anymore… , Let’s start with others….”

Someone else.

When I heard those words, cold sweat broke out and ran down my cheek.

It’s not just this child.

Even at this very moment.

Many students here were targeted by Han Seo-jin and their lives were being threatened.

If I stay here like this, won’t I also miss out on other people I could save?

Did I choose the best option?

Are you acting rationally?

Rather than that.

‘Why… ‘I didn’t expect this situation a long time ago, did I?’

Would things have been better if we had prepared conservatively from the beginning?

Would things have been different if I had been a little wiser?

… No.

Now is not the time to blame yourself, harbor regrets about the past, or worry too much.

It is time to resolve this situation.

“Hold on a little. A drone will come soon and provide first aid. Just a little, just a little….”

This is a treatment drone that would normally fly in immediately. Time was delaying.

It was clear that he had gone to help other students.

One second passes.

Another second passes.

“… ….”

The junior seemed to have no strength to speak any more. My eyes slowly closed.

“Don’t close your eyes!!”

I shouted without realizing it.

One, the continued silence made me realize the powerlessness of words.

My respectability as a leader was good now.

When I saw the member of the team I was responsible for closing his eyes right before my eyes, my mind was driven as if I was about to fall off a cliff.

Is this also a matter of responsibility?

“Manager….”

The junior managed to squeeze out his voice with a smile on his face.

“Thank you so much….”

“Shut your mouth.”

“… ….”

“…… ?”

While looking at her junior’s side and putting pressure on her, the strength in her hands slowly loosened.

My eyes returned to my junior’s face. She couldn’t quite close her lifeless eyes and just looked at her sky.

I took a deep breath. At that moment, her heart suddenly dried up, and her heart sank to the ground.

What came into my field of vision again were the two hands of the idiot, covered in blood, holding his junior’s side to stop the bleeding.

In my head, I was screaming that I had to go quickly and save the other students. However, he did not willingly remove his hand.

She continued to press on her junior’s side, holding on to the straw-like hope that he might still be able to save his life. A medical drone will arrive soon, and all you need to do is provide first aid.

Even if the heart stopped, I could perform CPR using my lightning magic.

I think so, but.

“… ….”

I couldn’t shake the thought that it was already too late.

The sense of reality touched my skin.

It shouldn’t stay like this.

I am the leader of the leadership department.

Optimal efficiency had to be pursued in carrying out the mission of the leadership department.

This kind of indecisiveness was an attitude that should be avoided.

The blood in my entire body seemed to be frozen.

However, she gradually relaxed her grip and tried to let go of her junior.

At that time.

“It’s okay.”

Lupus Lupus One hand was placed on the back of my hand and made me put my hand back on her junior’s side.

Another hand was placed on my chest. As if he was telling me to leave it to myself.

There was a female student with flowing black hair next to me.

She looked at her.

A first-year student with a sly fox smile on his face, looking at my junior with ruby-red eyes.

“Ise… ?”

Red magical power bloomed like a flower in full bloom from Isea’s hand, forming a small analog clock model. It was a magical image carved by her.

Wow!

Magic power like flower petals fluttered around him, and Sea’s magic power wrapped around my junior’s side.

After that, a miracle occurred.

As if a video was being played in reverse, the red blood that had flowed down on the ground rose up and flowed into the inside of her junior’s side.

The skin regenerated as the flesh came together, and the wounded area was finally restored to its normal state.

Paaa.

Only then did Isea’s magic dissipate.

“Huh?”

Life returned to her junior’s eyes. She looked around her with a confused look on her face. She seemed to have no idea what had happened.

I was equally dumbfounded.

“Ta-da, this is an easy solution!”

For some reason, my pulse went out and my body started to stumble.

“hahahaha. Actually, it’s not ‘simple’. “It’s my unique ability.”

“What is that…?” ?”

I looked at Se-Ah’s red eyes in bewilderment.

“Because it is a matter of privacy. “It’s difficult to tell my senior, who is a stalker, what my abilities are!”

It was different from recovery magic.

What was it?

Time retrograde?

Causal reversal?

Is it such a ridiculous ability?

Or what?

I just learned for the first time that Se-Ah has unique abilities.

Se-ah placed her hand on my shoulder and smiled slyly with her usual narrowed eyes.

“As for seniors~. She’s a problem because she tries to handle things she can’t handle on her own. “You’ll get tired soon, right?”

“… ….”

I didn’t have the energy to say anything to Se-Ah’s playful admonition. Soon, she revealed her red eyes again.

“… The senior team is doing quite well. Among my classmates who were taking the evaluation, the kids in the leadership group seemed to be fighting bravely. What is the duty of a leader? Oh, I guess it’s thanks to my senior who took down a lot of her unpleasant skeletons?”

Se-ah laughed bitterly.

She seemed to be trying to reassure me.

“Well, our volunteer department is also working hard, isn’t it?”

Se-ah speaks slyly, spreading her hands wide on both sides of her face.

“Because our motto is to help people in need!”

I could not help but imagine the service department guys helping the students, smiling evilly, ‘tsk tsk’ and ‘giggle’.

“… “Is that so?”

Whatever it was, there was no time to waste now.

I looked at my junior who had regained consciousness, confirmed that he was fine, and stood up.

“Thank you, Seaya.”

For now, it’s just one word.

Let’s express our proper gratitude later.

“You’re welcome~. Shall we go now? “It seems like there is someone else that a senior should take charge of.”

“I’ll ask you to leave here.”

“Yes.”

With a slight sense of relief, I and Se-ah lightly slapped each other’s palms and left the place.

I strengthened my body as much as possible and ran as fast as possible. Toward the central point of the barrier where Han Seo-jin was.

I wanted to receive support from the leading members as much as possible, but it was difficult to do so in a situation where Seojin’s minions were rampant.

I have no choice but to deal with Seojin.

Soon.

When we arrived at a large land where splendid structures were placed,

Chaaa!!

“…… !”

Water currents of mysterious colors poured in front of me as sharp as a knife.

Because I instinctively felt a threatening magical power, I quickly kicked off the ground and fell backwards to avoid the attack.

The water flow settled down and seeped into the ground.

And the front.

Someone was standing in front of the structure in the very center of the vacant lot and staring at me.

Skull mask.

Black robe.

Magic wand.

The appearance we all saw in the game.

“Han Seo-jin.”

The sound of Han Seo-jin, one of the six criminals, breathing was heard.

“Manager.”

From Noble mtl dot com

A mechanical sound that does not seem to belong to a man or a woman.

It was a modulated voice.

“As expected… , you knew from the beginning. “I didn’t come to this academy with pure intentions.”

… I didn’t know?

I realized it too late.

I don’t know what the misunderstanding was, but it wasn’t important right now.

“Stop this right now.”

In order not to get excited, I suppressed and purified the emotions boiling inside, but the emotions that came out through the cracks seeped into my tone.

“I’m sorry, but that won’t work. “I have something to accomplish.”

The front brim of the hat was lowered to hide the veins that appeared on the forehead.

That guy was a valuable junior whom I had given affection to and considered to be a promising leader.

That made me even more angry.

“You damn bastard….”

He swore in a calm tone.

Why Seo-jin entered Aseong High School, why she joined the Seondo Club, and why she did something like this will have to be investigated one by one later.

For now, I just had to focus on suppressing the situation.

Is it possible to catch Han Seo-jin with my skills?

I don’t know.

However, ‘whether it is possible or impossible’ was not important now.

I had to compete with Seo Jin as quickly as possible.

I wanted to do that.

“On-site arrests will be carried out and offenders will be severely punished.”

According to the rules, he recited the official line spoken by the leader, concentrating his magic power and infusing the Cheolryonggon with lightning magic power at maximum power.

Accordingly, Seojin also poured magic power into her staff. The magic stone on the staff glowed purple, the same color as Seojin’s eyes.

“Especially a filthy bastard like you.”

The muscles of my entire body were tense.

I hold the iron dragon tightly.

Gently bending her knees.

Bend your upper body forward.

Paaat!

I jumped towards Seojin at full speed.
