I Was Purged From the Villains Union

18 – 7th Place 7

“Why…?”

“Huh?”

“Why did you turn it down? .. Like the woman said earlier .. She wouldn’t have had a chance like that ..”

The point at which I walked a certain distance after breaking up with Hana.

Yuri looked at me and carefully asked a question.

At this moment, her face seemed to contain a little complicated emotion.

Seeing her expression filled with strange joy as well as doubt and regret at the same time, I answered with a light smile on my lips.

“I told you, I don’t want to do a troublesome job like a clique leader, nor am I capable of it.”

“That… Isn’t it… If it’s your ability, obviously…”

Uncharacteristic of her, Yuri, who strongly denies my words.

In response, I stroked her hair gently.

Yuri seemed to have calmed down a bit at my actions, and she stopped talking.

And to her, I spoke calmly in her small voice.

“Now my clique is enough for you alone. I have no intention of taking care of the other guys.”

These are not empty words, this story really came from my heart.

Of course, the leader of a large faction had an obligation to take responsibility for the many people who belonged to it.

If one of the faction members was injured or involved in an incident, they had to take the lead in doing so, and if they did something wrong, as a leader, they had to take responsibility under the pretext of mismanaging people.

And in that respect…

I didn’t even have the slightest thought of supporting countless people one by one, including the three scumbags I didn’t want to deal with.

Although Lee Ha-na herself is not a leader as a leader, it was found that she is more bright in this way than Choi Shin-hye.

If I had to choose someone to work with, I would personally choose someone.

He has a knack for dealing with people, and he also knew how to plan and execute them in order to get what he wanted.

In addition, I knew how to coax the situation well enough to make the other person feel better or develop a good feeling, rather than blindly attacking.

Before proceeding to the main topic, destroying those guys who bullied Yuri must have been part of the plan to make me feel better.

When viewed comprehensively from that point of view,

If the target had been someone other than me, it was clear that her plan would have worked quite well.

‘Looking at it from that point of view, he’s a pretty amazing guy as a leader. At the age of three years older than I am now, with that level of political power, I might become a considerable tycoon in the future..’

First of all, as a personal evaluation, I want to give a passing grade.

But… Apart from these facts, I politely refused her proposal without even a second thought.

Unfortunately, the person she was trying to persuade was me, who had already decided to put a wall around this childish political fight.

In the first place, my ultimate goal in academy life is to live peacefully and graduate quietly.

The reason why he showed his strength was to lay the foundation, and in that respect, the position of the pivotal leader, where he had no choice but to draw a lot of useless aggro while increasing only annoying things, was absolutely not acceptable.

‘I’m busy healing myself right now, so there’s no need to increase my burden. I can’t afford to take care of other guys besides Yuri.’

I turned down an offer for such a really simple yet simple reason.

On the other hand, in response to my sincere answer, Yuri felt that her face had become even more red, and she didn’t ask any more questions.

But even if she didn’t know it, she seemed to fully understand what I said.

After I finished talking about this, I started walking along her path while still holding Yuri’s hand.

While thinking that I don’t want to get entangled in such troublesome yet complicated things that I can do in the future.

*

Hana Lee.

Ranked 7th out of tens of thousands of students, a person who has achieved great achievements in the eyes of others.

But, nonetheless…

She knew perfectly well that under the current circumstances, she would never achieve the goal she wanted.

12 Top-notch players in the academy and the 12 factions they lead.

Among them, attempts to bring down those at the top and rise to a higher place were still occurring frequently, and Lee Ha-na also took on countless challenges and received challenges at the center of the fierce struggle.

But… After so many years as a faction leader, she had no choice but to admit it.

She realized that it would be impossible for her to rise to a higher position than she is now with her own abilities..

She said that in order to break down this ‘wall’ in front of her, she needed a ‘sword’ that was more powerful than her.

And then, she was rejected as cleanly as if she was cut with a sword by the person she thought was suitable for that ‘sword’.

However, at this moment, the face of the one who had been rejected so clearly did not contain any emotion of displeasure.

“Haa… ha..”

With her flushed cheeks, slightly rough breathing, and a beast-like presence in front of her prey, a hardy deep smile began to bloom on her lips as if reminiscent of a burning flame.

And…

Looking at one such figure,

The only person who has accompanied her until this moment, and the woman who is her closest friend,

Doona Kim spoke to her boss in a voice filled with feelings of incomprehensibility as well as a slight displeasure.

“Why do you like it so much? That man Didn’t you reject the huge offer from the boss? But why the hell…”

“Yeah.. That’s how it happened. Indeed… He’s a better guy than I thought. Ahh.. I wanted to have it from the first time I saw it.. But.. Really.. The more I look at it, the more I covet it.”

“Yes?”

Hana is rather genuinely happy that Han Do-yeong turned down her own proposal.

Regarding this, Doona carefully asked Hana a question amid unresolved feelings of doubt.

“Hey… Boss? Can I know what the hell you’re talking about?”

“Whoops… yes yes, ok I got a little too excited.”

As if she was trying to calm her emotions with those words, Hana sipped the cooled tea.

Then, in her calmer manner, she began to explain her situation to her subordinate number one.

“That man… He didn’t seem interested at first glance, but he knew. About the ‘poison’ in my proposal.”

“Yes? Poison… I understand that you simply said you would give the boss and his faction, but what else is there?”

“Then of course, you can’t… did I really mean to give that man everything I had in one moment?”

“..I know that the boss is someone who can do that, didn’t he?”

“Huh.. Well, he’s like that too.. But no. I don’t know anything else, but it’s a faction that I raised and perfected with great care, so I can’t just give it away like that, and the process itself isn’t easy to flow like that in the first place.”

“I don’t understand. Wasn’t that the end of it when you handed over the leader’s seat?”

Doona is still asking a question with a question mark.

Regarding this, Hana said with a deeper smile on her lips as if she liked her appearance like that.

“I’m sorry, but things don’t go so easily. No matter what you do, that faction is the faction that I raised and protected. Just because someone I don’t even know sits on top of them all of a sudden, do you think they’ll follow suit?”

“… Well, it doesn’t seem like that from me right now. I feel like I have to abandon the boss right away and serve someone else, but I don’t think it will be easy to accept that.”

“Right? In that respect, even if that man sits on top of me, he can’t wield power as he pleases. On the other hand, we can move that man as we please with the opinion of the whole faction. A powerful sword that can even take down the 3rd rank.”

“It’s like a poisoned holy grail.”

“Yes, definitely. Knowing this fact, that man rejected our offer. It’s really amazing, no matter how human you are, you understand that fact with your head, but it won’t be easy to let go of it, but to reject it all at once like that. He is a strong-willed and strong man more than I expected.”

With those words, Hana slowly takes out her smartphone and examines the man’s photo inside.

At the same time, an intense emotion of desire that could not be hidden began to stir in her eyes.

“Even for that reason… I will definitely bring it… Doyoung Han. The best sword that will give me the first place I’ve been dreaming of… I will definitely hold you in my hands.”

Hana begins to show her greed by licking her lips coquettishly.

On the other hand, Doona thought for a moment while watching the boss.

‘… To me, it looked like he just refused because he was really annoyed.
