Academy Silver Gatekeeper

9 – Hospital visit – 1

self-

A man with the appearance of a water ghost emerges from the darkness.

Seeing this, Hyun Soo-jin immediately got up from her seat and approached him.

Kwajik-!

The black shadow seemed to wriggle and grabbed the man by the collar.

“Hey, Kwak Hyuk. What are you doing now?”

“… .”

“Are you kidding me? I took Han Ji-yoon with me, and the old man Ma Hak-jun was also held by our children. There is only one thing for you to do. Bringing a kid was the end. Know?”

“… .”

“But it failed. Fuck, are you talking about this now? yes?”

It was only natural for Hyun Soo-jin to be angry.

Two elders jumped in to kidnap just one academy student.

And he was holding on to his most powerful enemy, an S-class talented person, Han Ji-yoon.

In addition, Ma Hak-jun, who was quite annoying, was also prevented from moving.

The remaining elder, Kwak Hyuk, was in a situation where he could not fail if he tried to fail the mission.

There is no competent person to stand in his way. Even if there is, it can be drilled straight through.

In the first place, there shouldn’t be a number of cases called ‘failure’.

Quad Deuk-!

Black shadows are emitted more and thicker.

It looked like it would swallow a man with the appearance of a water ghost at any moment.

“… Sujin Hyun.”

But he didn’t breathe hard or frown in pain.

Kwak Hyuk just called his name in a nonchalant voice.

“I had a situation.”

“… under!”

It was absurd. Even if I don’t have it, I don’t have it, so I just want to kill it.

However, the opponent is an Elder like himself. The rule is to avoid internal fights as much as possible.

And if they collide properly, it is difficult to predict victory even if they are Hyun Su-jin.

In a situation where the level of this ability is similar, it will be an unfavorable fight.

“… great. Let’s listen to what the famous ‘changgu’ is talking about.”

The black shadows disappear behind Hyeon Soo-jin in an instant.

Kwak Hyuk scratched his neck once and slowly parted his lips.

“A man, stood in my way.”

“Of course, someone must have stopped you. Whether it’s a professor or a security guard! Whoa… . Ma Hak-jun Are you talking about that old man?”

“no. not that guy It is a different person.”

“Then who?”

“I was called the examiner.”

“The examiner?”

“yes.”

“So what. that obstructed So what!”

It was Hyeon Su-jin who gave off the momentum to make a life-and-death decision if he said nonsense.

That’s how important this job was, so these were the feelings… .

“Even though I was hit by my spear twice, I lived.”

“… what?”

For a moment, I thought I had heard it wrong.

That much, the words that came out of Kwak Hyuk’s mouth were shocking.

“gibberish.”

“It’s not bullshit.”

“So that’s bullshit. examiner? The judges are dispatched to the academy. At best, it’s on par with the assistants at the academy. A fool like that got your spear hit twice?”

“I am just telling the truth.”

“Tell me honestly. did you do it right? Didn’t you just do it?”

At Hyun Su-jin’s sarcastic remark, a grotesque light stays in Kwak Hyuk’s eyes and then disappears.

That change alone was enough to refresh the atmosphere.

“I have never treated anyone rudely. From the moment I grabbed the spear.”

“… great. This is where I crossed the line. sorry.”

There is something called ‘yeokrin’ that people shouldn’t touch.

Because I myself have such a thing, I know all too well what kind of emotion it will be if I touch it.

Hyun Su-jin raised both hands and obediently apologized to Kwak Hyuk.

“Let’s reorganize. I took on Han Ji-yoon, and my kids took on Ma Hak-joon. And you went to secure the target.”

“Yes.”

“But the examiner blocked your way. You swung the spear as usual, and the examiner who was hit was pinned somewhere. Of course, you assumed that your whole body would explode and die?”

“Accurate.”

“But the man woke up again. So I blew it off, but it happened again?”

Kwak Hyuk nodded as if he was correct.

“… under!”

Thinking back on it, it’s really nonsense.

It’s bullshit, but it’s not anyone else’s, but Kwak Hyuk’s saying that, so it’s not a lie again.

There is no exaggeration or reduction. That man only talks about things as they are.

Hyun Su-jin, who knew that all too well, was on the verge of pounding her head.

‘Does that make sense? I wouldn’t know if I had just been stabbed by a spear. It’s normal for a person with extraordinary powers to explode when that person’s spearhead strikes. But one examiner endured it twice? Even then, you got up again and managed to block that human’s way?’

I can say for sure. that it is impossible

It is far beyond common sense. Even an A-class person would not be able to do that.

There is only one type of existence in the world that can withstand an Elder’s attack head-on.

‘S-class… .’

Hyun Soo-jin’s head started spinning.

It was clearly called the judge. It doesn’t matter which grade or which affiliation you belong to.

What is noteworthy now is that the examiner is, after all, a public servant belonging to the state.

‘Could it be, what if these had gone ahead with the experiment and saw results? What if he disguised himself as a civil servant and placed him in the academy?’

It is an openly known fact that the villains are aiming for the Hositamtam Academy.

So far, the forces deployed inside the academy have been strong, and the villains have not cooperated at all, so they have not been able to put it into practice, but it is possible that the country has already prepared.

‘These are, gearco… No matter what, that cursed experiment!’

Aww-!

A dark aura radiates from Hyun Su-jin’s body.

Something ominous enough to give goosebumps just by looking at it.

It was a reaction that always happened when I touched her wretch.

“Now what?”

“… What do you do?”

“Are you going to aim for the academy again? Or are you going to change your strategy to secure the target?”

Hyun Soo-jin smiled refreshingly at Kwak Hyuk’s question. And he answered.

“Are you crazy? Did you turn?”

Of course, I knew how to succeed, and even if I did the work, I did it very hard.

They already know that Kim Soo-hyun is their goal.

But let’s hit it again? This is like a tiger pushing in with its mouth wide open.

“I heard that ‘that guy’ came to the academy.”

“… .”

“Can you afford it? That crazy yellow bitch?”

As soon as we heard the news that the academy was under attack, we immediately went to full strength.

A person who can be said to be the strongest among S-class talented people in Korea.

The strongest of the strong, to the extent of being at the top of the S-classes that exist in the world.

Even if he was an elder, it was a level that he was reluctant to stick to.

“it’s annoying. Why would her parents be in my country, because they were naturalized here.”

“They say I’m Korean.”

“Your hair is yellow and your eyes are blue, but what?”

Sujin Hyun, who was scratching her head nervously, bit her lip.

‘First of all, I’ll have to investigate the examiner first. Seriously, if anyone survived the experiment… .’

The conclusion will be one of two things. appease, or remove.

Among those two cases, Hyun Soo-jin deep down hoped to be the first.

*

“Fortunately, there are no serious injuries. There are no abnormalities in bones or organs. Surprisingly, the patient’s physical condition is very stable. Well… You should be discharged in a day or three.”

doctor man. What do you mean? Are you retired? Are you already retired?

why are you doing this to me You can’t do this! Is it because you were beaten by that Elder?

I wondered what it would be like to lie down for a month or so. You may be treated for an injury while performing official duties.

Even the villains invaded and even confronted them, so the picture is good.

I imagined that I would be able to legally earn a monthly salary lupine at the hospital… .

“I heard that you are being discharged. They say there’s nothing wrong with your body, so keep dispatching the academy judges again. don’t say anything to me It’s a decision from the top, so if you want to be quiet, just do it.”

That was what the old boss said when he came to see me in the hospital.

I don’t know if he came because he was worried or if he came to stress.

Thanks to that, I started worrying about going back to work three days after being hospitalized.

‘Rather than that, why is the reaction a little less refreshing than I imagined?’

I was hopeful in my heart. After blocking the Elder and being attacked again, he survived.

I even thought of an answer because I thought I could ask you right away what your identity is.

But nobody even mentioned that part.

‘In this case, the number of cases is two. One intentionally obscured information. or not… .’

Or, he just thinks that Elder is playing with an ant.

Honestly, I think people will nod more to the latter than to the former.

Even if I had heard the news, I would have assumed that Elder hadn’t dealt with him properly.

Still, as if they were acknowledging my performance, the hospital room was a single room.

The money going out would not be a joke. I was worried, so I sneakily asked, and they said that the entire cost was the academy’s burden.

Thanks to this, I was able to use this comfortable and spacious space to the fullest with peace of mind.

“Let’s see some news from outside.”

As soon as I turn on the TV to find the remote control, all I see is all sorts of news.

As expected, they were focusing on the academy raid incident a few days ago.

[This tragedy, which resulted in many casualties… . ]

[The Special Ability Association took this incident as an opportunity… . ]

[Dean Ma Hak-jun and Professor Han Ji-yoon held an official press conference… . ]

Beyond the screen, Han Ji-yoon and Dean Ma Hak-jun can be seen, who look very busy.

I was a little sad that I didn’t come to see you once, but there was a reason for that.

Maybe even now, thanks to the reporters, I’m so busy that I’m out of my mind.

[Meanwhile, the joint funeral of those who lost their lives protecting students in this tragedy… . ]

Watching the news makes me feel it. I want to know what you did

I did it because I felt like I had to act, but now that I think about it, it was really crazy. It’s a miracle he didn’t die.

‘Let’s think positively. yes. You saved Kim Soo-hyun, and you prevented a tragedy in which over 500,000 people died and were injured.’

I didn’t do it because I wanted social recognition, because I wanted attention.

As a human being, he just did what he was supposed to do.

I just took actions that did not sting my conscience. That’s all.

… Still, I wanted to hear the words to get some more rest. Going to work three days later is too much.

smart-

“Me, over there. Examiner Baek Seo-jin?”

Along with the sound of knocking, a voice came through the woman’s door.

“I-I am Kim Soo-hyun! Welcome to the hospital! may I come in?”
