chapter 38
38. discipline
“You cannot sell it for billions or hundreds of billions. miss.”
With Tak Woo-hyun’s words, the air around them froze in an instant.
Tak Woo-hyeon is a merchant who makes money by selling weapons. However, before that, he is an artisan who makes weapons with pride as a blacksmith.
He was very proud of the weapons he made, and was very happy with the weapon itself. Now, production is one of the things that occupy a big part of his life.
-Kidduck
Because of that, Tak Woo-hyun has now suffered a huge blow to his pride. It was because of Yoo Hee-yeon’s immature words.
-I bought the weapon, so put it in the Artemis Guild Storage
-Why are you like that? Are you short of money?
The arrogant attitude of treating one’s weapons as if they were baggage, and the mindset that money can buy anything.
As a blacksmith, it was the opposite of Lee Hyeon-seung’s reaction, who respected him. In an instant, anger rose, and the surroundings almost went out, but Tak Woo-hyun held it in. Because she is the daughter of the Artemis guild leader. Artemis would definitely not tolerate it if she started to use violence first just because she heard unpleasant stories. That was the worst situation for Lee Hyeon-seung and the Blacksmith Association.
So, I skipped it once. But he couldn’t hide his expression. Tak Woo-hyun’s expression was severely distorted, and his face turned red as if it were about to explode.
“Even…why did you pay so much…”
Yoo Hee-yeon, taken aback by Tak Woo-hyun’s sudden reaction, tried to say something, but Lee Hyun-seung stopped them.
“Yoo Hee-yeon. How about that? There is a degree of rudeness.”
“what?”
Yoo Hee-yeon looked straight at Lee Hyun-seung. Lee Hyunseung said without avoiding her eyes.
“What do you have to say now? It’s not an apology. Even when they made me a criminal, and now. You obviously trampled on people’s pride and then you ignore me and do nothing. People can make mistakes. But if you make a mistake, you should at least apologize. Looking at your attitude, all I can say is disgusting.”
“Everything… are you crazy?! Are you saying that to me now? Did you just decide to leave?”
-Fall r
Yoo Hee-yeon shuddered and shouted. However, Lee Hyun-seung didn’t care and approached Tak Woo-hyun and lowered his head.
“You must have come here with a good heart, but I’m sorry that I made you go through this because of me. I really appreciate the weapons you crafted. I think you’d better just go and see it. I don’t think there are many good things to do here.”
“Hmm…”
Tak Woo-hyeon glanced at Yoo Hee-yeon as if he had something to say, but immediately shook his head, let out a sigh, and turned around.
“I will try to go. Hyunseung Lee. Let’s talk separately with you later.”
Tak Woo-hyun left without saying goodbye to Yoo Hee-yeon. Yoo Hee-yeon looked at Tak Woo-hyun with dumbfounded eyes.
Jeong Eun-seo talked to Yoo Hee-yeon.
“What are you staring at like you don’t understand? You really don’t know what’s wrong?”
Yoo Hee-yeon turned around and stood up, ignoring Jung Eun-seo’s words, and headed inside the academy building.
Jeong Eun-seo said as if it was absurd.
“Really…what the hell is that person doing? It’s hard to understand. Are you lacking in empathy?”
Yoo Hee-yeon ignored the words and walked away.
– trudge trudge
Yoo Hee-yeon, who only stood in the position of looking down on others. Up until now, people had only adjusted to her every action. When she said she didn’t like it, people refrained from it, and when there were things she liked, most of them flattered her in front of her.
To her, the many things that happened while intertwined with Lee Hyun-seung were nothing but shocking. Doesn’t an independent, non-Awakened person dispute their opinions, or do they directly mention Artemis in a place where many people are watching? Truly absurd and absurd things were happening.
‘What the hell…what did I do…what did I do wrong…I didn’t do anything wrong.’
her father said
-Heeyeon-ah, a person in a high position shouldn’t carelessly apologize. When the lower ones start to apologize once, they look at it lightly and try to bite it. So, don’t be too quick to apologize. If the other person raises a problem, use force to subdue it. to clearly know the difference between the two. You can. because you are my daughter With this father’s power, people won’t treat you badly. So feel free to act. don’t notice Because that’s the attitude a born upper class should have.
The world my father taught me and the reality were very different. No, it wasn’t really different. When she strained her eyes, people trembled in fear, and everyone was busy paying attention.
‘Lee Hyeon-seung… why on earth are you?’
Lee Hyun-seung and the people around Lee Hyun-seung are not afraid of Yoo Hee-yeon. Everyone fears the prestige of the Artemis guild and only notices it, but strangely, the people around him act confidently.
As if there was some kind of guiding force, Lee Hyeon-seung was making people similar to him one by one on his side. Yoo Hee-yeon doesn’t know, but this wasn’t an illusion. Lee Hyeon-seung was building his own power centering on those who were actually strong and unwavering.
However, Yoo Hee-yeon, who did not know about these contents, only increased her complicated feelings.
“it’s annoying….”
There was nothing going my way. A complicated mind rose up.
As she closed her eyes, a heavy man’s voice was heard.
-You must not miss first place in any field. It doesn’t matter which method you use, so get first place no matter what. It doesn’t matter if it’s dirty or nasty, so use your abilities to get first place, you know what I mean?
what my father said The shouts I heard when Lee Hyun-seung took away the top score in the written test. She shook her head again and thought.
‘Let’s not think useless. What I need to focus on is the future. If I waste my time on a guy like that, I’ll disappoint my father again.’
It was scary. Father. father’s disappointment.
She quickly returned to her class. To prepare for upcoming written and practical exams. Undoubtedly, this time both will take the top spot. I thought so.
***
Academy F class. Jeong Eun-seo and Lee Hyeon-seung entered the class.
Jeong Eun-seo talked to Lee Hyeon-seung.
“Isn’t that person too unlucky? I really wanted to smash it, but I held back because I thought Hyunseung would stop it anyway.”
When Jeong Eun-seo reacted violently, Lee Hyun-seung nodded and replied.
“There’s no need to use violence first, because you’ll have a chance to face it legally soon anyway.”
“Are you talking about class annihilation?”
When she said it, Hyunseung Lee nodded.
“Honestly, I don’t think there will be any problems with Hyunseung, but I won’t sit still in Class A. The image you showed in the F-class representative selection this time was so amazing. I might not just ignore it and set up a response.”
“doesn’t care. I didn’t show all of my abilities anyway, and we’re going to be fully prepared.”
“If you are preparing, what are you talking about?”
“First of all, we should unite our class members who have fallen apart a bit.”
Hyunseung Lee looked around. Some of the F class members around. Those who were terribly defeated by Lee Hyeon-seung in the F-Class selection match looked at them with eyes that seemed to still have resentment, while others trembled in fear.
‘Neither is good.’
Class A has a solid alliance system centered around Yoo Hee-yeon. It is safe to say that they are one. This is because the command system is firmly transmitted centering on the commander named Yoo Hee-yeon. But not the F class.
Class F starts with the ones who take money from Yoo Hee-yeon, and the guys who voluntarily do stupid things to get her attention. Because there were various types of people who put others down and ignored them out of pride.
‘The best thing is, everyone sticks together except the paid bastards. Of course, I wish I could make them into a team, but I can’t help it if it doesn’t work.’
Those who have already received money from Yoo Hee-yeon are treated as discarded cards. It wasn’t that many people anyway, and above all, it was just trash with no hidden talent, so it didn’t matter. What’s left are middle-of-the-road or obscure opportunists, and ordinary people who have nothing to do with either.
Is there a way to get them to one side at a time? no. There is nothing like that. In a way to listen to and considerate of all different opinions, it is impossible to show efficient teamwork in the class representative selection match with less than a week remaining.
If so, what is an efficient way? it is surrender
have to surrender This is to ensure that the chain of command runs smoothly. And, Lee Hyeon-seung knew better than anyone how to subdue people.
“Come out for a moment.”
Lee Hyeon-seung moved Jeong Eun-seo to the side for a while and looked around the inside of Class F. Still, some were looking at them with cold eyes.
Hyunseung Lee talked to people in front of him.
“Since you have become the F-class representative this time, I have something to talk about for a moment, can you all focus on it?”
Lee Hyeon-seung said, but no one was looking at it. Was the sound low? Or is it because they are overwhelmed by Lee Hyeon-seung, who was suddenly transferred to the F class, and their pride is hurt? Either way it didn’t matter. I expected it anyway. And, I’ve even thought of how to respond in this situation.
‘Whoop…’
Hyunseung Lee took a deep breath and hit the desk in front of him with his hand.
-Quaaang-!
“What… what is-!”
“Mi… are you crazy?!”
In an instant, the people around them started to stir, and their eyes began to focus on Lee Hyun-seung. Hyunseung Lee spoke with satisfied eyes.
“Listen straight. Because I have something to tell you.”
