16 – Golden viper and gray mold (1)
At the end of the day, before going back to the professor’s quarters, I lay down on the sofa and took a break.
Even though the cough has stopped, the sickness of the body is still the same, and at sunset like this, the energy is lost and the body becomes heavy.
That’s why I lie down for 10 to 30 minutes before going home.
No one greets me when I go to the dorm anyway, and I don’t have any hobbies to mention, so going early or late doesn’t mean much to me.
And lately, I’ve had one minor problem.
It was a nightmare.
Rather than a nightmare, it was just a strange dream, but anyway, after dreaming, I felt very strange, so it was like a nightmare.
The content of the dream is as follows.
Floating high in the sky, I enter the strangely colored clouds.
And then the scene suddenly changes, looking up from the ground at a meteor shining in the sky and rapidly falling to the ground.
Other than that, there are a few scenes that pass quickly, but like a dream, I forget it right away when I open my eyes in the morning.
What remains in my memory are clouds and meteors.
I couldn’t figure out what the hell it was.
Since I can’t ask anyone, I can only assume that something went wrong in the process of being possessed.
But if the nightmare continues like this, it’s a bit troublesome.
When I have bad nightmares, I toss and turn all night, but the next day, I really feel like I’m going to die.
On such a day, he pours in nutrients and tonics, barely endures it, and then staggers from exhaustion and barely ‘returns’ to the dorm.
I was lying down, breathing slowly, when the alarm on my cell phone suddenly rang.
[Hello, Professor. This is Han Min-ha.]
Han Min-ha sent a message…?
You don’t know my number, how did you do it?
I think assistant professor Bae Ye-bin informed me after the advisor was decided.
[The management assistant gave me a number to greet first, so I send a message like this.]
As expected, assistant instructor Bae tried his hand in advance so that his children would not look bad.

My grades are low and the academy doesn’t care, so the only thing I can trust is my advisor.
So, greet your advisors in advance and make a good first impression.
[Nice to meet you, Minha Han. Although we have already talked about it a few times.]
[Thank you for choosing me as your advisor. I will work hard in the future.]
[That attitude is very good. I was trying to contact you separately. There is an orientation for the advisor tomorrow.]
[Is there anything I need to prepare?]
[There is not. It’s time to drink coffee and chat, so come comfortably.]
[All right. By the way, will Hee-won come too?]
Han Min-ha also cares about Yoo Hee-won.
For a completely different reason from Yoo Hee-won.
Yoo Hee-won is in a situation where she has lost her self-esteem as to why she became the same student as Han Min-ha, who is in last place, and as Han Min-ha, she must have a ‘dare to be like me’ mindset.
But what can I do, Han Min-ha?
In order to grab you by the collar and lead you normally, you had no choice but to accept Yu Hee-won as well.
[Student Heewon Yoo is also coming.]
[Okay, Professor. Then I’ll see you tomorrow.]
[Yes.]
After a short conversation with Han Min-ha, I saved the number.
Then, as friends were automatically added to the messenger, their profiles popped up.
Nothing was written on the profile.
The screen name was just Hanmin, and the profile picture was also the default picture.
A girl this age would probably post at least one selfie.
Well, what can I do about my personality?
I put my phone down and lay down for a few more minutes before getting up on the couch to go to work.
* * * * *
I went home, washed up and sat down on the sofa.
I had to eat dinner, but to do so, I had to go to the cafeteria.
It’s not a long distance, but I didn’t dare to go out again because I was buried in the sofa after taking a shower.
Did you say that kindness and diligence come from physical strength?
I didn’t want to do anything because I had no energy.
If it was going to be like this, would you have stopped and eaten on the way back?
no.
In the situation at that time, I would have thought that I should come in a straight line and wash quickly and lie down rather than stop by the restaurant.
One way or another, let’s have a rough dinner tonight.
I took out the half-cooked freezer kit from the freezer, put it back in the microwave, and walked around the window.
The place where I am is a male faculty dormitory.
If you go beyond the small flower bed in the middle, you will see the female faculty quarters obliquely across.
As I was looking down, I saw Professor Jin Se-yeong walking from the other side.
Professor Jin, who had his sweatshirt tied around his waist, raised his arms and was groping the back of his neck.
Soon Professor Jin found the zipper on the back of his neck and took off the top of his full body suit.
Professor Jin’s strong upper body was exposed wearing a sports bra.
In the red sunset light, the muscles glistening with sweat stood out beautifully.
Professor Jin disappeared into the dorm while stretching his hands.
Wow… You look healthy.
He is a complete contrast to me, a gray mold.
I stood leaning against the window and watched the sun set slowly while eating a freezer kit.
There was nothing special after the quest to make Han Min-ha an S-class.
There is no reward information, and there is no status window that can be referred to whenever necessary.
Was it really possible to return to the original world after completing the quest?
With the appearance of Han Min-ha, the original story has all been distorted, and now nothing can be guaranteed.
Where the hell did Hanminha come from?
I definitely read this ruined trash academy until the end, and Han Min-ha never appeared there.
perhaps…
This may be a wild guess, but…
This world I possessed right now might be a remake of the original.
If so…
It’s absurd that he possessed a loyal reader who followed that ruined novel to the end in the first place, but if it’s even a remake, there’s a problem.
Knowing the original story doesn’t help at all.
“Fuck.”
After being possessed, I did not even know about the swearing that I had never said before.
I controlled my mind by checking to see if my mental barrier was strong.
Whatever the situation, let’s stick to the quest that has already been possessed.
I don’t know if it’s the first and last quest, or if it’s a trigger that triggers other quests…
It was a path that I found with difficulty in the forest where I couldn’t see an inch ahead, so I had no choice but to keep walking.

The next day, Han Min-ha arrived at the lab earlier than the promised time.
“You’re here early. Student Heewon Yoo hasn’t come yet. Come in.”
“Ah, yes…!”
Han Min-ha’s expression as she sat in the chair looked very nervous.
Even while making coffee, Han Min-ha was restless, glancing at the extension door.
I had just poured three cups of coffee when I heard a knock on the lab door.
“This is Yoo Hee-won.”
“Ugh…?!”
Han Min-ha sighed and jumped up from the chair.
“Come in. It’s open.”
Yoo Hee-won opened the door and proudly entered the lab, and met Han Min-ha’s eyes.
“Did you come first?”
“Ah… hello…?”
Han Min-ha was very nervous at the appearance of Yoo Hee-won.
It was natural.
Rather, it would be strange if he relaxed.
Yoo Hee-won and Han Min-ha can never mix.
It was my job to coordinate the two.
“Sit down. I’ve just finished making coffee.”
Yu Hee-won, sitting in a chair, looked around the lab and commented briefly.
“It’s modest.”
“A rank professor’s room doesn’t have to be fancy.”
“What is that? A palm tree?”
Yoo Hee-Won pointed to the Areca palm pot placed by the window.
“That’s right. Areca palm. It purifies the air.”
“There is also an air purifier. Come to think of it, the professor is not feeling well. You couldn’t finish the introduction because you coughed during the entrance ceremony, didn’t you?”
“That’s right. I have weak lungs. But don’t worry. I’m fine now. Have some coffee.”
Han Min-ha bowed her head and drank coffee.
“Oh, hot…”
Yoo Hee-won, who smiled like a snake while looking at Han Min-ha, smelled the coffee and asked.
“Colombia Santa Maria?”
“that’s right.”
We took a few sips of coffee and were silent for a while.
Han Min-ha was completely intimidated, and in proportion to that, Yoo Hee-won had a very confident attitude.
From the appearance, the gloomy Han Min-ha with black hair and glasses and Yoo Hee-won with blonde hair and blue eyes were polar opposites.
Yoo Hee-won was gorgeous enough to be called an active hero, but Han Min-ha… well…
Well, from now on, you just have to make it fit for a hero.
What should I do with those glasses?
No hero wears glasses.
Even if you have poor eyesight, wear prescription goggles instead of those glasses.
And for a hero, the external part is very important.
A hero is not a guardian of justice and common sense.
A star who lives on the popularity of the public and the attention of the administration.
So, of course, pretty and handsome heroes win more.
In addition, if you use a combat method that kills villains with flashy instant kills, the icing on the cake.
A person like me, who is like a dull gray mop, has no star power, so it is difficult for me to succeed, no matter how much I use the ultimate defense technique.
Even if you die in that way, you can’t become S-class.
“Thank you both for choosing me as your advisor.”
When I opened my mouth, Han Min-ha and Yoo Hee-won looked at me with their own eyes.
“To be honest, I’m a little burdened because I’ve never had an advisor before, but I’ll do my best. Please take good care of me.”
“i look forward to.” “Me too.”
“By the way, you two. You already know each other, right? Even though they’re from different classes.”
Han Min-ha shook her head and Yoo Hee-won opened her mouth with her signature smile.
“How could you not know Minha?”
There was a lot of meaning in those words, and Han Min-ha lowered her head with a blush on her face.
I asked with a smile.
“For example, is it because of a trivial incident like passing out in the basic evaluation?”
“What, is that so?”
“Okay. But that’s why it’s difficult to act like a noble lady dealing with maids. Okay?”
“When did I do that?”
“No. I didn’t mean that, I meant not to do that in the future. Don’t be sensitive.”
I smiled lightly and, like most women who saw my smile, Yu Hee-Won couldn’t argue further and kept her mouth shut.
“From now on, you are a classmate who will be guided under me. It will benefit all three of us if we get along well. I don’t want everything to be messed up by fuss.”
Han Min-ha nodded, and Yoo Hee-won slightly furrowed her brow and turned her gaze to the other side.
After taking a sip of coffee with a smile, he continued talking.
“Typically, the advisor plays the role of giving advice and helping throughout the academy life and academics. In addition, he also teaches the professor’s major subject in depth. My major subject is basic defense. In fact, it can be seen as encompassing almost all defense technologies.”
“Then will you learn defense techniques?”
Yoo Hee-won interrupted my words.
“Yes, of course, assuming you want it. You can’t force it if you don’t want to. But one thing is certain. If you study defense science, your survival rate will increase dramatically. And it’s quite useful in real life.”
As soon as he finished talking, he picked up a coffee cup and sprayed it in the direction of Heewon Yoo and Minha Han.
