4 – Daily life with a blind saint (3)
“Dear love, can you explain what happened to what I am seeing?”
“Yes, what?”
“That’s about the worms sticking right next to you. Have you ever been threatened?”
The man called Eunhyuk smiled meanly as if he was trying to provoke me.
Of course, it was just pitiful, so the listener Dung Ma enjoyed the surrounding scenery of Dung Academy.
After thinking about the answer for a while, Han Sarang responded with a natural smile and tone.
“I got lost on my way to school, but Mr. Hanil found me and took me here.”
Then, in her kind tone, the man took advantage of her blindness and said with a face full of murder.
“Ah, if that’s the case, I’ll guide you now, so stop handing over the saintess.”
“That’s what.”
I didn’t want to get involved in more troublesome things, so I tried to leave, but Han Sarang stopped me by extending his arm.
“Your brother Eunhyuk is in the swordsmanship department. Classes will start soon, but I can’t be bothered.”
“That’s true, but… I’d be late to entrust you to someone like that.”
“Ah, that makes me feel so uncomfortable. I will only be grateful for it.”
“That… Is it?”
“Okay, then I’ll go now, oppa. Good job today.”
Eunhyuk smiled and withdrew at the one word to say that he worked hard.
But even after that, the gossip continued. Among them, he asked quietly so that only the person next to him could hear.
“Rumors spread quickly. You don’t want everyone at the academy to make a fuss about this either.”
“… This is not like you. Like I said before, I don’t really care. That’s because people who don’t value me talk about it.”
It was a very serious expression and tone.
You seem like someone who wants to be loved by everyone, but you’re more awake than I thought.
“Okay, take care of yourself.”
“Something about that tone. I’m not lucky.”
Anyway, I had a strong conviction that today would be a more tiring day than usual.

Before the first class lecture began, a girl ran to Han Sa-Rang who was scared to appear in the classroom.
The girl’s name is Rumi, and she was one of Hansarang’s dearest friends, nicknamed Rumi.
“Loubu, Lubu, Lubu, what were you doing when you didn’t even call me yesterday! How worried!”
“Mi… I’m sorry Rumi. Her phone was broken.”
“Have you ever been bullied by those family members again?”
“Yes, don’t worry. I’m OK.”
Then, as if relieved, Lumine let out a deep sigh. Then, she changed her mood and brought up a new topic.
“Then I’m glad. By the way, is the rumor I heard this morning really true?”
“What rumors are you talking about, Rumi?”
“Who are you pretending not to know? Of course, you and Baek Han-il crossed arms and went to school together!”
As soon as the unexpected topic came up, her blushing love suddenly came into Rumi’s wide arms.
“What can I do, what can I do Rumi!”
In fact, she pretended to be relaxed in front of Baek Han-il, but whenever she did, her head was confused and her heart was beating like crazy.
If he hadn’t practiced emotional control by dealing with a lot of people, if he wasn’t indifferent to everything, he would have noticed right away.
“Seriously, what should I do!”
“hahahaha, even if you ask me, who knows nothing, I have nothing to say.”
After that, she let out a long sigh and started her story.
“That’s it… Rumi, you know I was originally a fan of Baekhanil, right?”
“Of course not. But after knowing the truth, you just cursed at me.”
At that moment, Hansarang remembered the past several years ago. At the time, I really hated it, and it felt like my illusions were about to collapse.
“I think… I thought that the entity might be wrong.”
“Huh? What the hell happened to you two?”
“The explanation is a bit long and complicated…”
“It’s okay, so tell me quickly, I’m dying of curiosity!”
As Lumine approached Hansarang, just in time, the bell rang at the beginning of the first class lecture.
“Mr. Lee, why don’t you type the paper right now? No, I rather like it. I’ll sing Ame and Hera during lunchtime, so arrange it in an easy-to-understand way, okay?”
“Okay, heh.”
Seeing her half-melted expression, I let out a sigh like a close friend.
“Ehh, the bean pods of our mother-of-pearl saint are properly covered.”
“Beans… Bean pods! I absolutely do not like him!”
“Poop, yes, I get it, I get it.”
“Because it’s not real!”

After the boring morning lectures, it was lunch time.
Contrary to my expectations, there were no incidents of students coming in droves and questioning me.
Although it felt like the usual sharp gaze had increased tenfold.
As usual, I was trying to find a seat in the corner of the restaurant when a girl approached me.
She was the only person in the academy whose name I knew.
“Is there a seat here?”
“I don’t have one.”
“As expected, don’t lie! There’s no way you’ll have anyone to eat with!”
In addition to that, the girl seemed to know me well.
“How did you find it?”
“Whoops, I saw it with my heart’s eye.”
What is this again?
“You’re good at annoying people.”
“It’s too much! Do you know how many people want to eat with me?”
“Then you can go to them.”
“I really don’t care, but then you’ll be lonely and miserable eating alone.”
“I’ve been doing it every day and it’s comfortable.”
Ugh! Whoops!
Strangely, as the conversation continued, two call bells rang at the same time.
I stopped Hansarang from getting up and conveyed my intention to bring it with me.
“Oh, do you have that kind of manners?”
“If I went out with you, it would be like going to school.”
“You must be shy. Then please.”
The menu I ordered was pork cutlet, and the menu Hansarang ordered was curry.
“I will eat well!”
mmm, she chewed the curry, she fumbled her fork towards her pork cutlet and picked up one of hers.
Then, dip it in curry and eat it like teasing.
“…They eat well.”
“I’m a bit lucky.”
“Like a pig?”
“Are you sure? Where is a pig as pretty as me?”
If you want to say something like that, you can eat it or not while buried.
I pulled out a napkin from the table and wiped Hansarang’s mouth.
“Huh? Go… Thank you.”
“Nothing.”
Then, after holding her head down for a while, she tries to smile and opens her mouth.
“How was the lecture today for you? I thought my head was about to explode.”
“If you say you want to be like me, but it’s that difficult, you won’t be able to do it.”
“Mr. Woo, how did empathy really work? This is why they say you shouldn’t do business with geniuses.”
If it fits my standards, it would be, but the fact that he entered this academy in the first place made him one of the world’s most talented geniuses.
If other academy students have heard of it, they are innocent even if they call it deception.
“By the way, did you hear about the afternoon class?”
“No, I couldn’t hear it because I was sleeping.”
“Anyway, delinquent students, it’s an integrated group battle practice.”
“… That must be annoying.”
It has been a long time since I had to roll my body and mind.
“You can give up without even using mana anyway.”
“No, because my grades are on the verge of being expelled.”
“Did you care about that?”
“I don’t care, but my younger siblings are worried.”
The reason I’m still at the academy is not because I want to enjoy more rich movies, but because of my younger siblings.
“Are you going to fight with your bare body while holding a stone?”
“What are you doing hard?”
“Then you have the mindset to just take the bus! I feel sorry for those who will be in the same group as you.”
Okay.
Even though I can’t use authority or even manifest magic, I still don’t have the confidence to lose.
I thought I should press my nose a little when I met him as an enemy.
As time passed, it was time to practice group battles in the afternoon.
In a tense atmosphere with a huge number of people gathered, I yawned from sleepiness after eating.
“Greetings everyone, this is Professor Chris, who will oversee today’s lab. As all of you sophomores know, there is such a thing as formality, so I will briefly explain.”
Practice conducted in virtual reality as a group of 6 people divided equally in consideration of academy rankings and job groups.
Dozens of groups are summoned into a randomly selected space, and the first goal of each group is to preoccupy the designated defense area.
A simple rule that only needs to be done is to block the void wave that comes after the defense zone is preoccupied.
, The professor explained, but there are numerous variables.
The number of defense zones less than one-third of the summoned group. Among them, will you accept those who failed to preoccupy the defense zone and fight together?
Also, who will be the main dealer with the highest score in the group, and so on.
Besides that, there is no bottom or end to consider, so let’s think about it when a situation arises.
“Then, I will announce the selected groups. Please refer to the front panel and audio system.”
The children who caught the Joe they liked let out cheers, and the children who didn’t like it groaned as if they had lost the whole world.
Let’s see my group.

It was a satisfactory team with a fairly even distribution of positions. I think I can get buried in moderation even if I don’t do anything special.
“Haaa? Why are you!”
However, the top performer, like the leader of our team, seemed dissatisfied.
