[Club friendly match results]
[Hwangguk VS 101st Korea Fellowship Association]
[According to the results of today’s friendly match, the winner ‘The 101st Korean Association’ will be promoted to an official club, and ‘Imperial Kingdom’ will be suspended as a temporary club. ]
“Indeed, it must be.”
There was no way that this document Master had given me was forged, so it was certain.
“Then is this the end of the dispute?”
“Yes, it is completely over.”
With that affirmation, Cheon You-ha, who had been looking through the documents with her head sticking out, jumped up and jumped up and down.
“Oh oh! From now on, we are an official club!”
“Hooray!”
“Cheer up! Korea horray!”
“Oohhh!”
Along with Chun Yu-ha, the outside food that was around—even the members of the ‘101st Korean Homecoming Association’ screamed and circled around the bed.
It’s not some kind of Indian ritual, what is this.
Sitting on a bed among them, I closed my eyes, feeling the feeling of being sacrificed to an ancient god somewhere.
‘It’s been a while.’
The reason these bastards circle around the bed I lay on is because this is a hospital room.
Indeed, it was questionable whether it was the right thing to do around a patient like this, but it was clear that he had invaded in the name of visiting the patient.
‘Somehow, it seems that the interval between coming to the infirmary is shorter than in the previous life.’
How long had it been since both arms were broken, did he come back injured already?
Fortunately, this time, only the right arm and air veins were shattered.
Well, after administering a few drops of the elixir, the veins returned to normal.
“The first activity is from the K-drama screening!”
“I want to go to Gyeongbokgung Palace! Certainly, on social media, even the Heavenly Demonic Church said that the scenery was astonishing!”
“good night! Then, with the authority of the manager, the weekend experience study will be confirmed as Gyeongbokgung Palace!”
“Oohhh!”
“… … .”
Still, I heard that I still need to take Jeongyang for a while, but why the hell are these guys doing this?
‘Please someone clean these guys up.’
***
A day passed after that, and it was Thursday.
Most of the broken right arm and fist were healed in just half a day.
Seeing that the fractured knuckles healed in a day or two, it was clear that the peak healing power was much better than the first class.
It is only now that I feel beyond humanity. It felt like standing on the starting line as an unmanned person.
I reached my peak, and I beat the big boy in my school named ‘Kisara Kujo’.
“Not bad.”
You may be expelled.
As the impatience that had existed subtly for so long disappeared, my mind became clear.
It is said that there must be trials to grow, but agony was not good for mental health.
“now! Come on, let’s fight!”
My level has risen even more, and minor changes have occurred after winning this national championship.
First of all, the number of times Chun Yu-ha requested sparring increased more than before.
Previously, it felt like stabbing him once, but these days, whenever we eat together, he asks with mad eyes.
… … To be honest, I felt like I was going to get sick sometimes.
Seeing that his eyes were getting hotter day by day, it seemed that he would have to practice sparring sooner or later.
In addition to such a bloody change, my club membership was registered as the ‘101st Korea Fellowship Association’.
As all lectures progressed in earnest, more and more people devoted themselves to their studies.
By defeating Kisara Kujo this time, an inspector from the student council came and measured the approximate level,
There were various minor changes, but they did not fundamentally change my daily life.
“Some warriors neglect foreign work, but it is necessary. As the body is trained to be strong, it becomes possible to take both the heaviness of movement and agility at the same time, and to have the minimum durability, just like a super-high martial artist has a self-defense skill and a magician has a barrier… … .”
square – square –
Maybe the biggest change is that I started studying as soon as the theory lectures started.
After raising the level to the climax, failing a theoretical lecture and being expelled from school, nothing would be as absurd as that.
I was able to receive various scholarship benefits if I received high grades, so I decided to give a high score while retracing my memory of what had happened.
Other than that, I took classes, ate with Chun Yu-ha, went to the workshop to train, and in the end, my daily routine remained the same as before.
There were glancing glances from time to time, but they just flocked in groups, or openly flirted. No such unpleasant thing happened.
The reason why our daily life was maintained like this was because even though it was known that we won the representative game, who fought and how the duel went, everything was left unresolved.
Some people guessed the result based on who was taken to the infirmary, but at least the news that I single-handedly knocked out 4th place in the grade did not spread.
If that was known, the name Choi Kang-jun would have been firmly established on the cutting board by now.
It was only a peak, and it was too early to stand out like that.
‘At least the peak, when I got the top grade without anyone knowing.’
As long as I didn’t have enough skills to overcome anyone who attacked me, I didn’t have to show off that I was unique.
As long as it has reached its climax, reaching the super-climax will come soon anyway.
In the meantime, I had been quiet and secretive, and all I had to do was grab the head at once.
withdrawal from the school?
I didn’t care about that anymore.
‘The only thing I’m aiming for is first place.’
seat of the chief.
It wouldn’t hurt to climb to the top of the academy in this lifetime.
Also, in order to do so, it was good to rule out all risk factors.
For example, volunteer work.
I put it off until later, but something happened and I couldn’t go because it was a big deal, so it was better to do it in advance.
─I’m sorry. I got a call from the elder and said I can’t go with you this weekend right away.
I wonder if something happened to the 100,000 Daesan and Cheonma Shinkyo, and I vacated the seat of Cheonyu.
On the other hand, I was diligent and moved right into the weekend.
The devil’s tower designated for volunteering outside was located far from the Combat Division campus, so we had to take the train.
‘It says out-of-town, but I was actually assigned to the campus, so I should say thank you for this.’
So I stopped by the train platform again after a long time, and unexpectedly met a familiar face.
An elf in plain clothes with a bow and arrow holster on his back as if he were going hunting. Eleanor Andersen frowned.
“… … under?”
No, I’m not very happy either.
It wasn’t easy to get along with the guy who was trying to unsavoryly tie me up with my sister. It was awkward to answer exactly.
So I tried to ignore it, dismissing it as just a chance meeting, but soon the trainee and I got on the train and stopped in front of the cabin door.
The elf widened his eyes.
what is this
‘… … I can’t believe that even the rooms will be the same.’
Eleanor’s pupils shook violently, as if the other party had made an easy decision as well.
If I had known it would be like this, I would have boarded the first train a little later.
This is not good.
Even though I thought so, I couldn’t stand in the hallway the whole time the train was running, so I had no choice but to enter the cabin.
The elf next to me seemed to be of the same mind and sat down with his eyes closed.
[The train is leaving soon. Passengers, please fasten your seat belt. ]
“… … .”
“… … .”
How much time had passed in such an atmosphere where it was difficult to even breathe.
The train departed, and after enduring another long silence, the longed-for voice was heard.
[We have arrived at the shaman’s ward. Those who want to get off, please do so right away. ]
As soon as I heard the announcement from the speaker in the room, I immediately jumped up from my seat.
It was the same with elves.
no way.
“… … her.”
“… … ha.”
Even the destination would be the same.
Sensing the discomfort I will have to go through today, I closed my eyes tightly.
“hello everyone. We sincerely welcome you to our Montecristo Magic Tower.”
There are accommodations and a dedicated research building for the residence of the Jusul-dong faculty members on the Combat Division campus, but it is not their home base.
Unlike the warriors, who only needed simple administrative buildings and training grounds, wizards especially liked grandiose things.
Whether you majored in Eastern magic or Western magic, that was the same.
In that sense, this town was no different from a paradise for wizards and shamans.
─Shaman Cave.
It is spectacular in a different sense from the Student Union Building, which is made up of branches of a huge world tree.
Various objects of unknown purpose were flying in the sky above the roadside, and strange colors of light poured out from each building.
It was a town where science and magic engineering were more advanced than anywhere else, and cheap neon signboards were hanging here and there.
This was a neighborhood famous for geeks living in the damned line.
Among them, we stopped by a magic tower that specializes in Western class magic.
“Thank you again for visiting our magic tower. What would you like to drink?”
“Then green tea.”
“… … Oh, I’m fine.”
“Then please wait a moment.”
“uh? no, wait-”
coo-! The guide left for a while. Only the two of us were left indoors.
The guide at the Magic Tower, unaware of anything, pushed us, who had arrived together on the same train, into the same parlor without much hesitation.
In a way, it was a natural move, but leaving the two of us alone on the excuse of going to get drinks really crossed the line.
“ah.”
I scratched my head as I felt the atmosphere of the room momentarily rigid.
No, what about this atmosphere?
Gradually fed up with this situation, which I don’t know how long it will repeat, I made up my mind and turned to Eleanor.
“I have something to tell you.”
At that moment, the elf’s ears perked up.
I tried to continue my conversation with the thought of clearing up the misunderstanding this time.
However, I immediately frowned at the sound of the door.
‘Today, for some reason, nothing works.’
I let out a sigh, turned my body back to the original position, and checked the visitor.
“Nice to meet you. Umin people.”
The visitor was not a guide with green tea, but a monster with a pumpkin on his skinny body.
“I am the full-time professor of witchcraft, Mr. Pumpkinson.”
The pumpkin-headed wizard, who was staring at us passionately, immediately shouted.
“He is a great scientist who will conduct a glorious experiment with you today!”
“… … her.”
Umin? Experiment? Scientist?
The moment I heard that, I felt it.
It seems that I got the street number wrong very firmly today.
