136 – class announcement (4)
“Fourth place Han Soo-ho.”
The students didn’t even breathe. Soon, the silence began to change to stares and murmurs.
Children looking at her with many meanings.
Doubts, reproaches, doubts, ridicule, etc. The placenta had a negative and malicious connotation.
However, Han Su-ho, the person in charge, did not show any significant change in expression.
“Guardian.”
“Yes, sir.”
Chun Hui-taek looked at the girl who answered without a change of emotion.
If someone sees it, it might look like they’re pretending not to hear the sounds around them, but… In Cheon Hui-taek’s eyes, he could see that it was his own determination.
he raised his lips.
“Looks like you’ve cleared your mind.”
“Yes.”
“I see. For you, this drop in rank was not misfortune, but rather luck. I’ll look forward to the future.”
“thank you.”
‘Wah ha ha!’ Chun Whee-taek smiles.
“Hmm! That’s good. Now, from the next 3rd place, come forward on the podium. I will personally put a new badge on you.”
Chun Whee-taek takes out a small case from his bosom and answers. Inside, badges inlaid with silver, gold, and jewels glowed.
“Okay then, let’s begin. In a way, she must have been the most outstanding performer in this test. Hana Yu in 3rd place!”
-… … !!-
Surprising sounds were heard everywhere. Perhaps the hall is louder than the 4th place announcement.
-Well, that Yuhana is in third place… ?-
-I’m sure you did a great job this time… From the power of the stars to the hammer that calls electricity… When I saw the video, my hamstrings went numb.-
-Let’s see, it’s tempting. no more than that… Why is a kid with such a background so precious… –
– Hey, be careful with your words. Mabitna is behind Yuhana in white. According to rumors, they are close like sisters… What are you going to do if you go into society later and get filmed?
-I don’t like it… I’m annoyed by the fact that a kid who only has a flat face, but the rest is not very good, flirting next to Yu Si-woo… –
-If it weren’t for the S class… –
A voice that can be heard even if you focus on your senses even a little. As if to listen, the ugly feeling of jealousy leaked out.
[The viewer’s message is said to be more responsive than Han Su-ho’s time.]
‘… Maybe one will be the best. Regardless of the power and rank you have. Suho was shy because of her background as Changchun, but she’s just from an ordinary family.’
[It is said to be a truly ugly heart.]
‘it’s okay. Hana is barely intimidated by something like this.’
I raised my eyes and looked ahead. I saw a girl walking out confidently in the midst of this commotion.
Perhaps thanks to the power of the stars, her pink hair became even darker, and unlike before, she looked shiny.
Hana also met my eyes for a moment, perhaps feeling my gaze.
Yuhana smiled without saying anything. I also smiled brightly at her.
Soon after, the girl came up on the podium. Cheon Hui-taek, who was looking at her, let out an excited voice as if he was genuinely happy with his gums in full bloom.
“Congratulations, Miss Hana! I’m really happy that your hard work has paid off.”
“Go, thank you.”
Yuhana stutters. Contrary to the appearance that came out, I was very nervous inside.
“I hope that your efforts will be rewarded in the future. And although this is a personal desire, I hope everything is for your own development, not for standing next to someone dear to you.”
Yuhana’s face turned red as if she understood the meaning of the words.
Chun Hui-taek, who saw him, smiled and handed over the badge.
“Um! Now, second place… Wee Horin!”
Seruk. As the answer ended, a shimmering shadow.
A new type of Wihorin appeared along with smoke rising like fog.
She looks up at her with a fierce expression like her first class announcement.
Chun Hui-taek put a second badge on her chest.
“It’s wonderful, Miss Horin. You’re moving forward without a single hitch. But… Unlike before, you seem to have found your own purpose, isn’t it?”
Wee Horin, who licked her lips while staring blankly. For a moment, I turned my gaze to Yu Si-woo and turned my head.
“…Yeah, it’s because someone… I’m interested in it.”
“I see. It must not be an easy road.”
“…I haven’t reached that point yet.”
“I see. I’m sorry. I can clearly see what will happen to you with my eyes.”
Wihorin averted her gaze at those words. It flinched as if it were embarrassed, and ran away as if it were disappearing riding on a shadow.
hahahaha! Chun Whee-taek smiles. He cleared his throat and opened his mouth.
“Now, the long-awaited first place. I think everyone will know. What a great boy. He’s also the talk of the town this year.”
“No. 1 Yu Siu! Step forward.”
Eyes naturally gathered.
Unlike the first time, there was no expression of surprise or surprise on anyone.
Children who look at it as if it were natural. I felt longing and envy.
Jealousy and anger were not absent, but there was negligible hostility.
When I came upstairs, Chun Hui-taek was looking at me with a benevolent expression.
“Congratulations. Yu Siu-kun. It’s surprising that you were admitted as the top student as a man, but I didn’t know you could get a perfect score in all subjects, even in the second class class exam. You’re a really great student.”
“Thank you, President.”
“Um! Now, you, who are number one, have the right to receive this.”
As if it were his last, he handed over a badge with a processed jewel.
[Obtain Ernel Special Badge (S).]
[You can now use the special training room periodically.]
‘Has the goal been achieved?’
A place that will strengthen some of my abilities, including my current ‘intuition’. Thinking about how hard I worked to get this made me smile.
“Your performance.
chin! Chun Hui-taek grabs his shoulder so hard that it might break.
Soon, it was seen that the curtain was spreading at a rapid rate so that the surroundings could not be heard.
“I’m saying this because I’m as popular as you, but I hope you make a choice that won’t make anyone cry.”
“Uh, yes…? Yes?”
I was stunned for a moment because I didn’t expect it at all.
“Because I only looked at one person, a lot of troublesome things happened in many ways regardless of my fault.
He erased the smile from his lips.
“This place is real. Yu Siu-kun.”
“…!!”
I flinched.
“I’ve felt it since the beginning, but your eyes always seem to be looking at some distant place. But I believe you know now. The experiences, ties, and memories that you’ve been through have made it impossible to look away… sooner or later. There will come a time when we must truly resolve ourselves for the future.”
Fine patterns began to form in Chun Hui-taek’s eyes. Eventually, the energy gradually grew stronger.
A spiral was drawn in the form of Moebius, and it seemed to trap me in the eyes.
[Chun Hui-taek uses Future Foresight (SS+)!]
[Through years of experience and effort, he is demonstrating power beyond class.]
[Accuracy is reduced by resistance and probability!]
“…As expected, unlike the other students, you don’t look perfect. It’s probably because of your abilities. This old man has only one thing for you. Please, I hope you make a choice without regrets.”
“…”
I couldn’t answer and just swallowed my saliva.
A sign that is felt soon after.
Before I knew it, the female secretary approached me and looked at Cheon Hui-taek alternately.
“Um, is something wrong with you, President?”
“Um! Nope. I’m worried about this old man, so I acted in vain. hahahahaha! Anyway, I’m sorry for the long words. I sincerely congratulate you. Yu Siu-kun!”
“…thank you.”
He calmed his confused mind and lowered his head.
●
Afterwards, Chun Hui-taek received a call saying that he was on an urgent business. His complexion hardened slightly, and he left the place first.
A female secretary stepped up on the podium as if instead of finishing the day.
“Thank you all for your hard work. Now is the time you’ve been waiting for?”
she smiles In line with that, the children around them also showed an excited spirit.
“From now on, we will implement the Ernelle School Festival!”
-!!!!!!!!!!-
Cheers began to erupt.
After that, various schedules and precautions were given, but it was not worth listening to me, so I quietly followed some of the students.
‘It’s a school festival… ‘
It was an easy event to understand if you think of it as a festival run by any academy and a big event held twice a year.
The period was 7 days, but it was not a format purely composed of students.
‘Did a guild or a company participate and proceed together?’
Actually, the horse is a festival. In fact, looking into it, it was closer to a kind of meeting place.
Scouts of students who have raised their stock prices through official sparring and organizations that are paying attention to their value and approaching.
It would be more correct to say that it is a social venue that searches for heroes who will advance into society and perform various activities in advance.
‘I remember when I actually played as Han Soo-ho, it was annoying because he stuck to me so much… ‘
However, it was worth going around even at the cost of it.
‘Because well-known arms companies and alchemists’ guilds also participate.’
They sold good quality items that are hard to find outside at low prices.
It was a kind of bait product to promote publicity and status, and it was a business that could be left even if you could get a few of them.
Anyway, there was a lot of talk, but I had no intention of participating in this school festival.
You won’t get anything at all, but…
‘Because it will be bigger to lose.’
My reputation has risen too high through this test. There must be countless numbers of people who come for various nefarious purposes. Other than this, there must be reporters who approach Suho to pry the crap out of him.
‘I’m planning to get a weapon properly during vacation, so there’s no need to suffer here.’
The important thing was the vacation season, which started right after the school festival ended.
There was a lot of work to be done during that period.
‘The most urgent thing is of course. The problem of the reigning guild.’
A few days ago, through a conversation with Kang Ah-rang, Kang Yoo-ram, I was clearly aware that she was not normal.
First of all, I had to do something about her.
‘I’m sure it was the ‘influencer’. It’s not a day or two, but at least a few months, and it’s impossible to solve it with normal methods.
That’s why I had to go to the Forest Company to get materials to make an antidote to remove the hint.
‘However, even if I can get all the rest, the core material is a problem.’
A herb that takes the form of a living person in the deepest part of the company.
‘Make it… ‘
Like a common herb in the fantasy world, it also existed in the Ernelle company, and it was a grass that was highly valued.
‘I can’t get into the heart of Mandragora with my general admission ticket… ‘
In the end, the admission ticket must be strengthened, but for that, it was necessary to talk to ‘Mir’, the owner of the Forest Company. That’s more than the minimum executive.
‘I’d be able to do something if I just met him…’ ‘
I don’t know if someone of that level would give up the time.
‘What should I do… Shall I just go there blindly?’
That, a voice heard at the moment.
“there…”
“Well?”
When I turned my head, I saw a female student looking at me.
The girl exhaled a heavy breath, probably following her in a hurry.
He was a child who did not make much of an impression except for his scarlet hair.
“who…?”
At my words, the girl swallowed and opened her mouth.
