I Became a Mental Health Care Patient in the Apocalyptic Era

Chapter 17-The normal life

“You… What is that?”

Yang Ga-hyun looked at me with a very embarrassed expression.

“What?”

“What you wear on your eyes…”

I lowered the sunglasses on my eyes and looked at Gahyun Yang.

“You can’t understand it by looking at it? They’re sunglasses.”

Although it is large and doesn’t fit my eyes well, it was a wannabe item that could cover the eyes that I hadn’t been able to cover up until now.

“Then why are you wearing sunglasses?”

“Can’t I wear sunglasses?”

“Even if you say you covered your face because you didn’t want to show it to us, you’ve already seen your eyes. But why cover it up?”

It’s because you’re not the only people who see my face.

Since I didn’t have enough money to live in a dormitory, I commute quite a distance to school, and there are quite a few people passing the same route even though I leave quite early.

Of course, everyone is busy and living a tight life, so I don’t pay attention to my face, but winter is slowly passing by, and when a little boy passes by, covering his entire face with a scarf, I look at him at least once without realizing it.

Most people pass by thinking that they are just covering their faces, but sometimes there are people who look into their eyes clearly.

Until now, I thought that there would be no problem if I just covered my face, but looking at the reactions of other people around me, I felt like I would be able to notice this damn cuteness even if I just kept my eyes open, so I completely blocked it with sunglasses.

“I tried it out just for fun.”

“You wrote it with style? You? Why don’t you just say that Lee Seo-yeon started learning the sword?”

“I won’t use it during training, so don’t worry too much.”

It is difficult to raise it properly because it completely covers the nose with the scarf.

Wouldn’t it be used when moving to another place in the future?

“Don’t wear sunglasses in front of me.”

“Why?”

“If you cover your eyes, you look like a real ghost.”

She smiled lightly at Yang Ga-hyun, who spoke with her mouth slightly open.

“I’ll start class soon. Sit down.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll take care of it.”

Right after Gahyun Yang sat down next to me, the instructor came into the class and stood at the blackboard.

“As previously announced, today’s mentorship class will conduct a mentor search as a preparation activity.”

Even though it was a mentorship class, it wasn’t that great.

It’s not like I’m taking seniors who have already graduated and are doing well, but I’m talking about the future with one-on-one seniors.

Moreover, from the player’s point of view, the player himself often already knows better than the mentor, so there were many cases where he was used to meet up with a useful talent in advance rather than learn.

“It is up to each individual to seek a mentor or not, but it is an opportunity to learn directly from seniors who have studied at the academy several years earlier than the cadets, so if possible, participate.”

Finding a mentor was essential for players, even for networking, but it was not essential for ordinary cadets.

Because it was a senior year, there were many people who couldn’t take good care of mentees because they were busy, and no matter how good the 3rd academy was, there were a limited number of truly outstanding mentors.

“Are you Gahyun Yang looking for a mentor?”

“It would be nice to have, but I don’t think it’s necessary.”

“People like Yang Ga-hyun and me shouldn’t seek mentors.”

Lee Seo-yeon, who had been approaching us before we knew it, said.

“Because we have a means to obtain information without having a mentor. If possible, mentoring opportunities should go to those who do not receive other opportunities.”

“You’re so good that you say that you don’t need a mentor.”

“Does his personality change when he wears sunglasses? You’re very sharp.”

Something sharp.

“Park Soo-hyun, which senior are you going to visit?”

“Senior Han Siwoo.”

‘I did it by chance, but it works as expected.’

Among the graduating class, there are only two people who are considered the best mentors.

One is Han Si-woo, whom Park Soo-hyun just talked about, and the other is Imari, who was destined to be called a traitor later on.

Han Siwoo is a person who is very blunt but clear about his path.

He has a similar personality to Park Soo-hyun, and he had the ability to do things on his own without interference from others, so he didn’t have to stick around.

Mentorship classes should benefit the mentor and benefit the mentee, but Siwoo Han is a really good nerd, so the player can’t give him any rewards.

There are many things you can get instead, but that’s the same for Imari.

For this reason, choosing Imari as a mentor, who has a lot to offer, and also uses as a heroine, is almost the same as the standard play, but Park Soo-Hyun leaves Imari to me and tries to go to Han Si-woo.

I let out a small sigh and looked at Park Soo-hyun, ‘You know?’ He was looking at me with that expression.

With an expression that seemed like something would happen if I didn’t go to Imari, I had no choice but to set the destination to Imari-senpai.

‘Would Imari be interested in me now?’

It is standard for players to have Imari as their mentor.

However, not all players can use Imari as a mentor.

Previously, you had to study hard, get good grades in the exams, and have a good reputation before you could use Imari as your mentor.

Because Lee Mari, along with Han Si-woo, was a girl at the top of the graduating class.

Even when I play as Park Soo-hyun, I don’t even look at it unless it’s a decent achievement.

‘If Ima-ri says no, she’ll find another good girl.’

There are many people who are not at the top tier and can be mentors at the right level.

If even those people say no, you should just give up.

After all, the main character in this world is Park Soo-hyun, not me.

*******

“Yes?”

“What are you? He said he’ll be your mentor?”

I was dazed by the reply of the blue-haired woman sitting at the desk, shaking her body and looking down at me.

I assumed the possibility that Ima-ri would make me a mentee, but she didn’t want anything and she didn’t think it would be possible at once.

I thought I would be able to become a mentee only if I gave at least a few missions and cleared them all, but he called me as soon as I got closer.

“Why do you think someone as great as you is my mentee? I haven’t proven anything.”

Although this may sound like low self-esteem, I wondered why he had made me a mentee since I had never really proved anything.

“One of the seniors praised you very much. You are usually the one who praises you when you see the right talent, but this time the level of praise was so great that I wondered what you were hiding. And…”

Her eyes looked straight into mine.

“Your eyes are unusual. I thought I had matured early, but at your age, I didn’t have such serious eyes. I wondered what kind of thoughts you live with, and why you live with such cute eyes and serious eyes at your age. “

How the hell do other people see my eyes?

No matter how much I reveal only my eyes, almost everyone, starting with Yang Ga-hyun, saw my eyes and said that I have great passion and conviction.

Why the hell?

Ever since I entered Apocalypse Escape, I’ve rolled my eyes to say I want to live somehow, but I’m not the kind of person who lives with such strong convictions.

I was a person who lived a very natural life.

People around me said I was really eccentric, but I just behaved in accordance with my dreams.

When I can’t study because I don’t have money at home, it’s natural for me to study while earning money.

Since I had dreams that were too high for being born into a poor family, it was natural for me to work harder in my life.

If you want to live without trying, you have to lower your dreams.

Right before entering this world, almost all of my dreams came true, so I played games, met friends, and lived a comfortable life.

Now I had the task of saving the world.

Isn’t it only natural to work harder and keep your head down?

“Look at it now. His eyes are cute, but his eyes are really cool.”

I don’t know.

Why do people look great when they try to do the obvious?

All I can do is exploit the psychology of people who think I’m cool.
