I Became an Academy Regular

Flags (4)

“Did you buy that for exploration?”

Oh Yoon-ha pointed to the parcel she was carrying. Unlike regular boxes, they were packaged in a lower and longer box.

“parcel? uh, right.”

“Let’s rip it off!”

“Is that so? … not.”

I didn’t bring him here for this. I dragged a chair next to me and sat down and turned the subject right away.

“What do you have to say about Hong Jae-yu? Anyway, that guy says I messed up with you guys.”

Oh Yoon-ha, who was looking at the parcel with curious eyes, looked at me puzzled.

“It’s crazy. What are you talking about?”

“What are you talking about… literally. I thought Hong Jae-yu was telling you by twisting my fight with him.”

“Didn’t you get hit by Hong Jae-yu?”

Oh Yun-ha’s face gradually tilted to the left. It was a look on his face that he did not understand even if he thought about it.

I don’t even know why he’s doing this. How did the rumors come about?

“What is right? I couldn’t even fight in the first place, so it ended.”

Rather, I hit one.

“What happened the day you met me?”

“The day I saw you? It was a day where I had a lot of fun with Hong Jae-yu.”

“Is not it? At that time, just looking at your forearms, there were severe bruises here and there…”

The bruise on the forearm is an injury sustained while fighting with Ryu Seo-yeon. Why is that story coming out all of a sudden…?

Wave! Suddenly, I felt the puzzles scattered in my head being put together. Obviously, it was after seeing my forearms that Oh Yoon-ha’s mood subsided.

‘no way···.’

If I’m right, it means that it all happened because of this guy’s misunderstanding.

“I hope it’s not, but somehow, I think it was all your misunderstanding.”

“Tea, you’re mistaken.”

The stars in Oh Yun-ha’s eyes began to tremble. You move like that.

“The bruise you saw last time wasn’t Jae-Yoo Hong, it was caused by fighting with another friend.”

“Heh, I guess I’m right. So, let’s get this sorted out.”

Hmmm. I coughed and continued talking.

“You told Oh Yoon-seong that you misunderstood by yourself. Hong Jae-yu wasn’t standing still, but it was still unfair, that’s the sound. Apologize to him later. Still—.”

not. Needless to say, he cares about twins.

“…Anyway, stay calm from now on.”

This was also a request as a gamer who recruited Younha Oh as a colleague.

“···Ugh!!!”

“Miss! It’s a surprise.”

Oh Yoon-ha suddenly started to ruffle her hair. As a result, the hat she was wearing lifted and fell. Moments later, when Oh Younha lifted her head, she had a blonde mane like a lion. At that look, she murmured, grass-fed.

“It was real. really made a mistake I should apologize…”

I said as I handed the hat that had fallen on the floor.

“…Uh, yes. I do my hair as I go. But wasn’t it a bit harsh to break your arm?”

“That’s because Oh Yoon-seong, Ji is excited. They used to be close friends, but now they don’t get along.”

“A friend?”

“Oh Yoon-sung now has a bad feeling towards Hong Jae-yu, because there is such a thing as love or hate. It seems that the argument over words escalated into a physical fight.”

Did Oh Yoon-seong have a friend like Hong Jae-yu? I wondered if it was ever mentioned in the story, but I can’t figure it out. If it’s a level mentioned once in passing, you won’t remember it.

Rather, he is…

“Did you two know that? That’s a great personality.”

“This was my own consideration!”

When I teased him as if he was giving me a pint glass, Oh Yun-ha protested as if it was unfair.

“I think it would hurt my self-esteem less if I was hit by Oh Yoon-seong than by me!”

“Uh, sir.”

I had a gut feeling that I would be tired if we talked more.

It’s urgent to start strengthening the bullets right now, but I don’t have enough time to waste time on useless things. It looks like it’s been pretty much resolved.

I got up and pointed to the front door.

“Okay. Is it all over now? Get out quickly.”

“Ah Okay.”

When he beckoned, Oh Yun-ha was pushed out of the hallway. As I watched her Oh Youn-ha grab her doorknob and try to get out, she suddenly turned her head.

“that···.”

Oh Yoon-ha hesitated and said with a blush on her face.

“Are you interested in me?”

what kind of bullshit is this I really started to worry about where my head was hurt.

thud! Then there was the sound of something hitting the door.

“uh···?!”

Who was eavesdropping on this? As soon as I opened the door, someone was sitting there crouching in front of the door, grabbing my forehead. It is a familiar hair with a blue tinge.

“…why are you here?”

“Well? This is a men’s dormitory, so if a woman comes in, you will be disciplined.”

“Are you talking about?”

Oh Yun-ha sneered from behind and held out her head, checked who it was, and her eyes widened.

“Hey, Ryu Seo-yeon, right?”

“Are you two acquainted?”

“You know the face.”

“Then you can tell me. He’s the one who bruised my body.”

When she points her finger to the top of her head, Seo-yeon Ryu raises her head. The center of his forehead was red, probably because he had hit her forehead.

“Gee, you said sorry for that!”

“…it’s just a comment, why are you so angry? Rather, why are you here?”

“ah···. Teacher Dae-soo Lee asked me to deliver this.”

Ryu Seo-yeon got up from her seat and took out a blue armband from her school uniform pocket and handed it to her.

‘I forgot.’

This is an armband that authenticates my identity. This pattern and the red color mean that you are a first year student at Yoosung Academy.

Above all, it means that you are protected by the Yoosung Academy, and you can also receive various benefits when you go out.

“thank you.”

“But Oh Yoon-ha, why is he here?”

“I heard that you have something to say about Jae-Yoo Hong. I found out that it all happened because of him.”

Oh Yun-ha, who wore a lion’s mane from behind, bowed her head as if she had no face. Ryu Seo-yeon looked at her like that and muttered quietly.

“…you know this is punishment, right?”

At those words, Oh Yun-ha was surprised and pulled me back and showed her face to Ryu Seo-yeon.

“Eh? Will you come soon?”

“It’s not about making things, it’s about following the rules.”

“That’s what it means!”

“for a moment!”

As their conversation seemed to be getting longer, I raised my hand to mediate. Slowly, a buzzing noise is heard from outside. Everyone seems to be returning to the dormitory.

“If I keep going like this, I’ll be annoyed, so let the two of you go out for the rest of the conversation.”

I pushed Oh Yun-ha out and closed the door, making a strange noise. thump thump. He stood outside the door and said something, but he ignored it. It’s better to see them in front of the door than to be caught together.

“Whoa…. I’d rather work.”

This one is more jinxed.

I turned and walked over to the courier in the corner of the room. Now it was time to take a look at the equipment we ordered. I feel it all the time, but I am quite happy with the anticipation that I feel when I first open the parcel.

Then, suddenly, the system appeared in front of my eyes.

[The condition of ‘???’ was satisfied and it was unlocked.]

[Special. 14 – ‘My Lovely Girl’ has been updated.]

Was the hidden content unlocked? I hurriedly found my phone and turned on the screen. And I quickly read the 14th perk that was activated in the status window.

[Oh Yun-ha’s favorability increases, his condition improves, jealousy]

‘···jealousy?’

What else is this?

“Are you really going to get there?”

“…because that’s just a whimper.”

“Whew. thank you.”

Ryu Seo-yeon avoided Yoon-ha Oh’s pitiful gaze, clinging to her side. Wouldn’t it be more awkward if you’re not usually friendly and only know her face? To Ryu Seo-yeon, who has no friends, Oh Youn-ha’s sense of distance was just unfamiliar.

“More than that.”

Ryu Seo-yeon hesitated and brought out the story she had just overheard.

“What does it mean that Seo Ji-han is interested?”

“Ah, what?”

At that question, Oh Yun-ha burst out laughing as if she was cute.

“It’s too bad that you deliberately treated me harshly.”

“listen. He also knew the name of my twin brother, whom I had never told before.”

The babbling voice of Oh Yun-ha was noisy, so Ryu Seo-yeon gently tilted her head to the other side. As she listened to the story, there were not one or two places where she could hang out.

‘Isn’t the name familiar? It happened because of the twins.’

Still, I thought that talking about this would only make the story unnecessarily long, so I just listened quietly.

“Even the last time you talked to me, you said you didn’t know who I was? It’s not the first time I’ve seen people get attention like this, but it’s the first time I’ve been caught up with this easily, so it’s cute.”

“That is-.”

I really don’t know. To say that, Ryu Seo-yeon bit her mouth.

‘ah. He doesn’t know.’

Unlike herself, Oh Yoon-ha is unaware that Seo Ji-han has amnesia. Besides, she seems to be mistaken that Seo Ji-han likes her.

‘Who could he like?’

When we talked earlier, Seo Ji-han didn’t seem to be angry with him. He doesn’t seem to care about the harsh words he said to him in front of the dorm. That meant that the reason for ignoring the call wasn’t because he was angry, but simply because he was annoyed.

Even now, even from the old Seo Ji-han, contacting only when necessary was not like a pushover, it was his true personality. Those who lost their memories did not change in fundamental aspects such as personality.

‘···I’m sorry.’

Ryu Seo-yeon looked sympathetically at Oh Yun-ha, who was chatting with excitement. Where she shouldn’t feel superior, she was feeling it without even realizing it . . .

On Friday, I received a message from the system stating [D-6]. Early in the morning, I was getting ready to go outside the academy as the other students were getting ready for school.

“I got my wallet. I got everything I needed. OK.”

Going out to explore outside and staying overnight was possible at any time as long as they got permission. Even so, I dare to go out on a Friday because the place I want to go to is a place that only appears on weekends.

I looked at the clock and it was time to leave. I packed my backpack that I had packed in advance last night. It has a lot of stuff inside, but it’s lighter than I thought because it’s a backpack enchanted with weight-reducing magic.

Of course, this expensive item is not mine. It was loaned from the Yoosung Academy, so it should not be lost or damaged.

‘Does it make sense to have tens of millions of bags?’

It’s funny to rent such an expensive thing, though.

Even though it’s a magical worldview, it’s not that common, so the price jumps several times just because it has magic like this.

I went out of the dormitory and headed in the opposite direction of the direction the students were walking. As you enter the large school gate, an instructor guards the entrance.

“ruler. Take care and come back on time.”

“Neep.”

When I showed him the permit, the door to the Yoosung Academy began to slowly open. I put my armband on my arm and took a deep breath.

‘It’s the first time I’ve come out of this world.’

As I went out of the school gate with some kind of excitement, I began to see the city center. It was a landscape with a sense of incongruity even though it was like the modern day we used to live in. New weapons were advertised on the building’s billboards, and there were offices with the guild names on the signs.

Now, it’s okay for passersby to wear weapons, but they also stare at people wearing armor that looks like something out of a game.

Of these, the most notable one.

‘The 103rd tower.’

In the distance, a huge tower pierced the clouds and quietly exuded a presence. He looked there and then immediately turned his head.

It’s not time to go yet.

First, open the Maps app on your smartphone. You can use public transport to get to the border, but it will take a while, so I’m going to use the Mana Gate at the station.

Even though this place is set in Korea, the street I saw on the map app was very different from where I lived. Even in the game, you press a button to move, so it’s like the first time.

After walking for about fifteen minutes, relying on the app, the station appeared. It seemed like there was public transportation such as the subway, but there was something that caught my eye in the center.

Dozens of mana gates installed. There was a long line in front of the entrances where the blue light leaked out.

‘ah. There it is.’

There is a place that seems relatively quiet compared to other lines. There was a gate that civilians could not use by setting it up, but unlike the gates that move to various areas, it is only the entrance to the boundary that goes outside.

I stood in line there, verified my identity through the armband and student ID, and paid. Hundreds of thousands of won came out even with the student discount, but fortunately, this money is provided by Yoosung Academy.

Whoa! When it was my turn to enter the gate, there was a strange noise and a slight vertigo.

“eww···.”

When I woke up and opened my eyes, I saw a different landscape than before.

It was a street like a downtown, but if there was a difference, only people like me, mercenaries, and hunters from the academy walked around, and there were very few civilians.

The atmosphere is strangely subdued because it is definitely a boundary going out. Everyone seems to be paying attention. If there was something unusual, the streets of the downtown area continued to a little further away, but there were no shops or people in sight.

Rather, a red line was drawn on the floor as if to be careful, and that was the boundary line where the protection of the tower reached. By going over there, an external search begins.

‘Ugh. It was like this.’

I looked around, not trying to get carried away by the crowd. There was a shop near here that I always use in games.

A shop run by an old man in a remote location. Unlike other places, there is no such thing as a discount, but surprisingly, this old man is very affectionate. You should think of it as a human now, but it was an NPC that could say that it was essential to have a good feeling that occasionally threw precious things.

slinky. The bell hanging on the door rings.

“Excuse me-.”

As I entered the store, an old man with a familiar face glanced at me and watched TV again. Just to get acquainted, I picked up some food to eat while exploring.

He laid out the items to be counted and handed the card to the old man. Then the old man waved his hand and said,

“I don’t take cards.”

…was there any cash? I looked through my wallet and luckily there were bills. I took them out and handed them over.

“Um, students? this.”

Then the old man found something among the bills and handed it to me. what? When I accepted it, I was taken aback and startled.

‘This······.’

It was a family photo of ‘Seo Ji-han’.
