Academy Silver Gatekeeper

4 – Became a freshman examiner – 4

Since the birth of the talented person, who is the best talented person in Korea?

If it’s not just about skills or abilities, but about the whole person.

Probably more than half out of 10 would spit out this name.

– Activates the 3rd eye.

◎ Ma Hak-jun

: An old man who has not fallen into the glories of the past

◎ Details

: He is a person who is not bound by his past.

His body has rusted over the years, but he is still a strong man.

It does not collapse even under extreme conditions.

One of the heroes who saved Korea from crisis in the early days of the power crisis.

The actual experience alone is one of the best in the world.

Although he has withdrawn from the front line due to the passage of time, the class is eternal.

I heard that there is no person who is hostile to him because of his strong reputation.

In the first place, the white-haired, narrow-eyed old man character is said to be a terrifying power no matter where he goes.

That legend was currently serving as the academy’s dean.

‘I’m nervous for no reason.’

The reason he called me in the first place was probably because of the silver level review that had just taken place.

I was officially dispatched, but in any case, this is an outsider.

Not a student, not a faculty member, not even a security guard.

Conversely, Park Jun-woo is a bully in what he does, but he is an academy student anyway.

It’s obvious that the dean of the academy is on the side.

‘No. If it’s Ma Hak-jun, he might be able to extenuate the situation.’

While I was thinking about this and that, I came to the dean’s office.

The security guard said it was okay to go in like this and turned around again.

I catch my breath before grabbing the doorknob to go inside.

“Whoa.”

I can’t help but be nervous.

He is an opponent who lacks nothing in terms of skills, personality, and personal connections.

The moment you hate a public official, the probability that your life will be difficult… one hundred percent.

‘no. Let’s not be scared. I’m proud.’

Looking back, there is nothing that can be said to be particularly wrong.

It’s because the level of the sub-section measurement screening is low, but the talented person is the weapon itself.

Even in simple sparring, a single mistake can seriously injure you.

I heard that the risk of injury is already a daily routine for academy students.

“It’s going to take me to grab a doorknob. Come in.”

I was about to fall off. Did you even read the hesitation?

I hurried inside at the grave voice I heard from beyond the door.

Unlike the grandiose name of the dean’s office, there was nothing special about it.

Dozens of books, a few photos, and various medals hanging on the walls.

And a sword that exudes a very tidy momentum. That was all.

After passing by them, I finally met Ma Hak-joon.

“Nice to meet you. The newly dispatched examiner.”

It looks exactly as described. A narrow-eyed old man with gray hair.

In the beginning, because of his appearance, opinions were divided as to whether he was a villain who hid his true intentions or a helper who hid his power.

Of course, it was soon revealed that it was the latter.

“Nice to meet you, dean. I am Baek Seo-jin, who was dispatched from the Ability Measurement Department.”

“I’m Ma Hak-jun.”

After briefly introducing himself, Dean Ma Hak-joon offered a seat and looked at me blankly.

It’s not a look that feels particularly hostile, but it’s very burdensome.

“I’ll go ahead and get to the point. I’m only going to ask you one question, so you should answer at once.”

Even what they say is a hundred times more burdensome.

Are you mad at me for hurting a real student?

“Hey, why did you come to this academy?”

“… Yes?”

For a moment, without realizing it, I asked the question back.

It was completely incomprehensible. why did you come here

“Me, dean. What do you mean all of a sudden… .”

“I said I would only ask once. And you can only give one answer.”

The opponent is Ma Hak-jun. Even though he is old, he is the best talent.

I know very well that I am not a person who would play pranks in this atmosphere.

He’s asking really serious questions, and he wants truthful answers.

“I am… .”

The problem is, this is really the only answer that can be given to such a dean.

“Well, I came because I was told to go on a dispatch.”

In response to my reply, Dean Ma Hak-jun said nothing.

Just looking at me with sharper eyes than a little while ago.

“Is that the answer?”

When the dean’s mouth finally opened, I reflexively nodded.

Did they say that classes are forever? The exhaled momentum is really no joke.

“… Got it. If that is your answer.”

The dean nodded, and cleared his throat.

“I heard there was a small accident during the grade review.”

“Ah, dean. that’s… .”

“Don’t take that to heart. Student Park Jun-woo must have made up his mind.”

All I know is Ma Hak-jun, who cares deeply for the academy and the students.

So I wondered if he would get angry if he hurt a student.

“It’s like meeting the right person. I knew that one day I would be greatly troubled.”

Also, Dean Ma Hak-jun was different.

Looking at the reaction, it seems that he had a rough idea of what kind of guy Park Jun-woo was.

“Even if it is reported to the superiors, we will take action so that there is no problem.”

“Thank you, dean. Thank you very much.”

“I will suffer even more in the future. More students will flock to this event.”

Probably.

In the low-grade screening, which had been taken lightly so far, a student with some skills fell.

If that’s the case, there’s definitely a guy who’s interested in it, or who’ll rush at it with bad thoughts.

“But not all students are like that. Rather, there are more good students. I called to tell you this. I hope you don’t look at the students too badly.”

Is there any way, dean? I know best.

The real trash is a minority, and the rest are students who want to do their job as people with special abilities.

It’s just that the minority are so many troll puppies that they stand out.

“Cheer up. suffering.”

“thank you. Dean. Then I will go.”

It wasn’t a very long conversation, but I could definitely feel it.

As expected, he was like a person who was one of the best helpers.

*

“Um… .”

Ma Hak-jun closed his eyes and recalled the conversation he had just a moment ago.

“Well, I came because I was told to go on a dispatch.”

A newly dispatched examiner from the measurement department. Did you say Baek Seo-jin?

On paper, nothing seemed special. He was just an ordinary civil servant.

However, what happened during Park Jun-woo’s screening process was by no means ordinary.

‘It’s not an ordinary skill. I induced the guard and finished it in one blow.’

Even if I only looked at the report, the situation was drawn at a glance.

It is absolutely not what an official in the measurement department can see.

You are hiding something. That came out in an instant.

The number of cases Ma Hak-jun thought was two.

One is the gang of villains aiming for the secret academy.

It’s not like there’s no possibility at all. Right away, my skills didn’t make sense.

Ma Hak-jun himself knows the ability of the department in charge of measuring abilities best.

At that level, isn’t it normal to be working in the field, not an office job?

Will the upper management turn field workers into office workers because they are crazy?

‘If you’re a new chick, you have a chance to show your strength even if you have to thoroughly hide yourself. There was also a report that the villains were secretly moving.’

And in the other case, an uninvited guest sent by none other than my ‘friend’.

‘I’ve had such a guy as my friend for 40 years.’

Ma Hak-jun presses his temples as if he has a headache.

He had been suffering from requests bordering on pleading for some time now.

“Please, please. Hakjun. Take care of our granddaughter. Please don’t hang out with bad things. He’s a very young child. I mean, I’m so nervous that I can’t even sleep.”

Kang Min-seong. A hero who saved the Republic of Korea from the brink of destruction together with himself.

The owner of a family renowned for their weapons-related abilities.

A swordsman feared even by villains with his overwhelming charisma and skills.

However, in reality, he is a man with a good temperament.

Even if you ask me to pay for my age, I’m still immature.

Kang Min-sung’s granddaughter recently entered the academy.

‘Did you say that he suffers from a sense of inferiority and a sense of inferiority even though he has decent talent?’

I understand. Kang Min-seong’s children and grandchildren are making a name for themselves after him.

It would be worse than not having ‘decent’ talent in that great family.

There must have been a lot of pressure to become a talented person who was not ashamed of the family.

That made people passive, and further changed to pessimism.

I even heard that some students who took it lightly after seeing such a scene approached.

One of them was Park Jun-woo, and today, that Park Jun-woo was crushed.

It was natural for Ma Hak-jun to suspect that Baek Seo-jin was the subordinate sent by Kang Min-seong.

Get rid of all the trash that tangles next to your granddaughter.

If it was Kang Min-seong who was extremely passionate about his love for his children and grandchildren, there were plenty of possibilities.

‘But those eyes and voice never belonged to those who tell lies. I didn’t even notice that he was hiding something.’

In fact, there is one more case.

It was a hypothesis that Baek Seo-jin was really nothing.

‘It could have been luck, or survival instincts could have created a miracle.’

In the end, there was only one answer. Baek Seo-jin, watching the young man a little more.

If it’s the villain’s sidekick, I’ll deal with it, and if it’s my friend’s sidekick, I’ll send it back to Tyler.

It was really nothing, but if it showed that kind of skill… .

‘It could be a good stimulus for children.’

Whatever it is, it takes time. Honey, there is no use in hurrying.

After organizing his thoughts, Ma Hak-jun began to remove the papers on the table.

– Baek Seo-jin. other. 24. Auxiliary series. Department in charge of ability measurement. Academy dispatch review officer. –

– Park Jun-woo. other. 22. Mutu series. C grade admission. Academy Standard Gold Promotion Judging. –

Then, in front of a piece of paper, he clicked his tongue.

“Tsk-.”

damn bastard It’s a request from a lifelong friend, so you can’t completely ignore it.

Anyway, since it’s the granddaughter of ‘Kang Min-seong’, let’s pay attention.

Ma Hak-jun muttered, looking at the personal information in the documents again.

– Kim Soohyun. female. 20. Ordnance class. E grade admission. Academy Award Bronze. –
