222 – Senior, I’m a fan (3)
Late morning, Academy gymnasium.
Yesterday, I was at the exam hall for the ‘Greetings from Seniors’ requested by Master.
And after stepping on the podium, I doubted my eyes for a moment.
‘Why are they together?’
It was because the women with familiar faces were gathered together in the front and center seats.
Park Yun-seo, Choi A-rin, and Song Hyun-ah.
Two of them were younger brothers of my friends, and the other one was a freshman who recently heated up the holder world.
Coincidentally, the three are key characters who open a new phase of the play in the original work as well.
Those who would become the center of the current first graders were in front of them.
‘Isn’t there a point of contact?’
It was a strange thing to see three people like that come together.
Originally, the three would be treated as separate episodes.
Park Yoon-seo is kidnapped by ＜Villain＞ and is an episode with the protagonist and older brother Park Jin-woo, and Choi A-rin is a genius alchemist who is a talented person in the special field.
And Song Hyeon-ah, who was originally ‘Song Hyeon’, is an episode in which she gradually grows up with the goal of becoming the heroine Kang Joo-yeon.
All three of them had their own stories, and the process didn’t particularly overlap, so they didn’t even get to know each other.
Song Hyeon-ah, in particular, does not easily get along with others.
She is a holder called ‘an icon of hard work comparable to Park Jin-woo’, but… A person who values external factors such as family honor and personal culture as much as such internal factors.
I didn’t even pay attention to the person who thought he was inferior in dignity.
That such Song Hyeon-ah is with A-rin Choi, who can be seen as the king of the end of the common people, and Yoon-seo Park, an ordinary person externally… It was definitely unusual.
‘Let’s focus for now.’
But being surprised is being surprised, and work is work.
I couldn’t ruin the work that my teacher, Professor Tak Won-ho, asked for with a minor variable.
Moreover, since I have seen so many trends that have changed from the original work, I have not been easily shaken by this variable theory.
“Hello, juniors. nice to meet you.”
Put your mouth lightly on the mic.
In the quiet gymnasium, countless holders were tightly packed.
It’s not just freshmen or supervisors.
Starting with the academy staff, there were various scout teams from domestic clans, or even classmates and seniors who came to see them.
The ‘Dalian Exam’, the last of the entrance exams, is a fairly large-scale event because it is a test that allows new students to understand their skills and check their abilities.
In particular, in the case of outsiders, they preferred to observe these practical exams rather than formal events such as entrance ceremonies.
“My name is Do Jae-hyeon, a holder who is currently in the second year of the Assassin class.”
Wow-!!
clap clap clap-
At the same time as the short introduction ended, thunderous cheers and applause were heard.
It was said that the speech was based on the results of the freshman survey, but my popularity was definitely overwhelming.
‘Ah, embarrassing.’
But I’m still unfamiliar with this kind of popularity.
I might get used to it now, but I just can’t get used to it.
The best prospect holder in the country.
The youngest S-class multi-holder.
Student Holder representing Seoul Holder Academy… .
There are so many modifiers for me.
Cheers and praise from many people there.
Looking forward to leading the holder world in the future.
As if to live up to that, even myself, who has become one of the leading celebrities in Korea before I knew it… .
It’s only been a year since I became a holder, but it was rather strange to get used to it.
‘… … .’
Of course, being famous isn’t necessarily a bad thing.
Anyway, this is the driving force that keeps me one step ahead, and there are times when it gives strength to my vague sense of purpose.
but.
‘It’s not even that good.’
It’s never a good thing that the public’s attention is focused on one person.
Because if there is someone who likes that person, there will be people who hate it as if to rebel against it.
They probably waited quietly…
If I stumbled even a little, it was clear that he would attack me like a dog and bite me.
And they will enjoy the moment when a hero falls more than anyone else.
Being prey to the media and anti-fans like that.
It was a spec on my side.
“I actually thought a lot about what I should tell my juniors. I thought it wouldn’t be fun to talk about things that were too standard, and I didn’t think it would be helpful to my juniors if I talked lightly.”
Anyway, thanks to such popularity, if you say ‘greetings from seniors’, you can attract the attention of freshmen.
It’s already a mess outside, but it might get worse inside.
I didn’t want to go through that kind of exhaustion.
-So let’s distract that attention a little bit!
The attitude toward this greeting was just that.
Of course, there were many intentional parts in my speech.
“But again, today is the entrance exam, and in a little while the juniors’ Dalian exams will be held, right? So, to form a consensus… When I was a freshman, I would like to tell you a story from when I took the Dalian exam.”
Slowly bring up the topic that you have been thinking about since last night.
I thought about it for over an hour.
The hot interest of freshmen and juniors is already pouring.
Any way to alleviate this…
“It was probably the first time. Meeting the biggest rival holder in my life, Park Jin-Woo.”
The direction of that interest was to turn to someone else.
I thought with a smile on my lips.
‘Jinwu. Thank you for today and I’m sorry.’
Since you sold me when you flirted with Camilla, I’ll use it too.

Park Yoon-seo last summer.
By the time the vacation was over, he had awakened as a holder.
Unlike her brother, she has a natural talent.
Including the main epic rune, [Cool Ambush], appropriate common rune settings, and fairly high stats were given.
Thanks to that, even though it’s been less than a year since she woke up, she was scheduled for a solid road.
Another talented person who appeared in the assassin series.
That was her modifier as a freshman.
-The only S-class holder in the Assassin class, Yoo Eun-seol!
– Will Yoo Eun-seol really not accept a disciple other than Do Jae-hyun?
-Multi-Holder Do Jae-Hyeon, what level of Assassin ability… ?
And it was natural for her gaze to focus on the two top assassins.
Yoo Eun-seol and Do Jae-hyun.
The duo of the two was already famous in the holder world.
A breath of fantasy that transcends the relationship between the teacher and the teacher and shows the same appearance as a colleague.
To become an object of admiration for those who walk the same path…
They were characters who lacked nothing at all.
‘Do Jae-hyun… Seniors.’
And Park Yoon-seo’s eyes gradually focused on Do Jae-hyeon, the disciple.
There were many reasons.
First of all, the fact that he is a handsome male senior, the fact that he has a lot to learn as a holder of the same affiliate who is one step ahead of him, and the heroic steps he has shown so far… .
But most important of all, my eyes went to him as he was.
Park Yoon-seo became someone’s ‘fan’ for the first time in her life.
-brother. Who is Do Jae-hyun sunbaenim?
-Oh! Xue. You’re grossing out to your brother’s friend right now. What’s a senior, senior?
-No, then, what do you call a senior?
-… Don’t interfere with training and think for yourself.
– This isn’t crazy.
There was nothing to be rescued from the conversation with her brother, who was said to be the closest person.
It didn’t help because they just talked a lot of meaningless stories.
So Park Yoon-seo gradually learned about Do Jae-hyeon.
From the big information that comes out in the article to the very trivial information.
I found it by running with my own feet, and I learned about him little by little.
It was the Seoul Holder Academy that came to me like that, and it was the ‘Excellent Fan Cafe Membership’ that I got.
And now.
Do Jae-hyun, his own idol, was greeting me in front of me.
but… .
“ … … That’s how Jinwoo became a talented person with no students to follow in the warrior class. Also, among the offensive warriors… … ”
Park Yoon-seo looked ahead with a blank face.
I’ve been listening to it for quite some time, but I still can’t grasp the situation.
Something, something strange was going on.
‘Why are you talking about that training maniac here… ?’
These are the greetings from Do Jae-hyeon, the hero of the academy.
I definitely expected to hear interesting anecdotes related to him, such as his brilliant achievements so far, his unrivaled dungeon raids, and his brilliant performance in the academy…
For some reason, in his mouth.
There were only stories about her brother, Park Jin-woo.
Of course, it’s not a completely unrelated story.
“ … … The existence of rivals who can stimulate each other like this is very important for holders to improve their skills. Even if you look at the fact that Jinwoo and I have grown from F rank side by side to this point. … … ”
Do Jae-hyeon added his own experience to the interesting couplet story, and mentioned the ‘importance of rivals’.
The instructive content that friends of similar skills sometimes become the basis for growth.
In a way, it is also the most suitable topic for ‘speech right before the Dalian exam’.
However, Park Yoon-seo was unfair.
‘This useless brother… ! Give back my senior’s story!!’
She just wanted to hear about Do Jae-hyeon.
Stories about Do Jae-hyun’s amazing achievements, or his family and multi-holder talents.
There are so many unique and interesting themes.
Among the many stories, the story of her brother clinging to her was not in the plan.
– Do you know Park Jin-woo? He was one of the best rivals I know.
… Such as.
I didn’t want to hear such useless summaries.
But time passed by helplessly.
And when I came to my senses, the senior’s greeting was over.
“ … … thank you Until now, I was Do Jae-hyeon, a sophomore.”
clap clap clap-
Wow, wow-!!
clap clap clap-
Whether they knew Park Yoon-seo’s fan spirit or not, the reactions of her peers were very enthusiastic.
Myeong Speech, also Do Jae-hyun, like the academy student representative.
Such compliments poured in, but…
The main content of the reaction was the story of Park Jin-woo, which was also a key topic.
“Wow, was Park Jin-woo senior like that?”
“It is said that senior Do Jae-hyun is your only rival. Then you’re done.”
“The hidden contributor to the villain sweeping operation, something like that.”
“Hey, tell me what are you doing? that’s it, that’s it Unsung hero.”
Really endless stories.
Park Yun-seo felt that her head was getting dizzy.
‘no. My brother is not that kind of person. He’s just a sword-crazy trainer… !!’
I desperately shook my head, but nothing changed.
LMAO
