chapter 31
30. Academy Without Joo Won Choi [Regret]
The news that Hyena Jang delivered through NATUBE spread across the country. Of course, the comment section of the video also caused a stir.
– What, did President Baek Ju-suk really use the academy intranet at will?
B But can it be? The president of a prestigious academy does things like that
Then what is the testimony of the deputy guild leader Valdena?
It’s vague, I guess I’ll have to wait a few months until the intranet is forced open to find out.
You idiots, isn’t it confirmed even if you don’t actually see it? Why would you even embroider yourself and say the words you would take anyway?
– Instructor Choi Joo-won became pitiful. He said he resigned himself because of false accusations.
B Wow, isn’t he the one who made billions of dollars in the one year he appeared as an article? Joo-won Choi?
ㄴ ㅇㅇ That’s right. He was famous as an S-class instructor at Helmund Academy.
– Well… First of all, I’m in neutral gear.
People’s opinions were still on whether it was a lie that a person called the deputy guild leader of a guild even gave himself up, and why would Baek Ju-seok, president of a prestigious academy, use and manipulate an intranet containing students’ personal information? Of course, at this point in time, there were more people who accepted the fact that it was fabricated as a fact.
Also, the same part of public opinion existed.
[Everything will be revealed when the intranet is opened.]
The general public, who did not know much about the incident, simply ate popcorn, biting and biting the situation and enjoying it.
***
The next morning after Jang Hye-na’s video was uploaded. Helmund Academy was in turmoil.
“What the hell is this? Did the president, not the instructor Joo-won Choi, secretly search the intranet?”
“No…then you mean that Professor Joo-Won Choi is not guilty of anything?…”
“It’s something I don’t know right now. Since the intranet master key is broken, it cannot be verified. They said it would take at least a few months.”
At that time, Haru Lee talked among the students.
“I’m sure it’s not really framed, is it?… I… I said harsh words to the instructor by text message…”
In an instant, the tumultuous atmosphere subsided all at once.
Hearing Haru Lee’s words, Siyeon Kim spoke anxiously, biting her nails.
“I… I actually sent harsh words to the instructor… I really didn’t know…”
All the students began to confession one by one.
“I told the instructor to die…”
“I said it was disgusting. I really knew that the instructor stole it…”
Among them, a female student with a particularly anxious expression. Yoon Seulgi said in a trembling voice.
“I… I… I told the instructor that I was disappointed… but I thought for a moment that it might be false that Instructor Joo-Won Choi was spying on the intranet… But… I still sent abusive texts. …”
Iharu nodded his head with a sad face as if he knew why.
“After instructor Joo-won Choi left the academy, the president and other instructors shouted and talked to us. A cowardly instructor who spies on an intranet or spying should be thoroughly punished and set a proper precedent. That way, in the future, there will be no more people who do stupid things like that.”
As soon as Choi Joo-won left the main gate of the academy, President Baek Joo-suk, who did not like Choi from the beginning, and fellow lecturers who were jealous of Choi, who made a lot of money by attracting more students than they usually did, gave back to Baek Joo-suk. The instructors who received the lecture gathered together and talked to the students at once.
[Unscrupulous instructors who spy on students’ personal information should be properly punished. However, since the honor of the Helmund Academy depends on it, I will not directly request it from the Magic Investigation Agency. So, I hope that the students will voluntarily come forward and give proper punishment.]
Then one instructor said:
“Surely, you, who can be said to be students of a prestigious academy, are not able to clearly recognize the incident because of your negligence, and believe in the sound of former instructor Choi Joo-won accusing you of being framed, right? Please don’t forget that all communications you send are logged on the intranet. We don’t need stupid students who don’t act for justice.”
Hearing those words, the students who were swept away by the atmosphere are the only punishment that can be given to Choi Joo-won, even when they are in a long-gaining state. They started sending text messages containing resentment and criticism anonymously.
The first reason I sent the text was because of [crowd center].
When one person starts, others follow the action. In various social experiments and national events that were actually conducted, such crowd psychology was applied in many cases.
A similar theory exists [the law of broken windows].
What would happen if you put your garbage on the corner of a busy street, clean street? Before half a day is over, the corner, where there was only one piece of garbage, is transformed into something reminiscent of a garbage dump.
Because the more garbage piles up, the more people think.
‘It doesn’t matter if I throw out one more piece of garbage anyway. So do other people.’
Even more so, some people are mistaken.
‘This is the original garbage dump.’
It was difficult for the students who were swept away by the atmosphere to make a proper judgment. There were also many cases where those who had gone through a binga minga saw the mad reaction of the same disciples and just followed them out of ignorance.
The second reason for texting is the ‘intranet’ where everything is recorded.
Yoon Seulgi muttered and wept.
“I… I… didn’t want to swear. I wanted to believe. But… I’m afraid I’ll be penalized later…”
All texts sent by students are also recorded on the Helmund Academy intranet. In other words, you can check whether or not you criticized Choi Joo-won. Of course, if you use it for private purposes, you will rarely see it, because you will be subject to huge punishment, but just the possibility that [you can confirm] was enough to cause fear.
– We don’t need stupid students who don’t act for justice.
Words spoken by one instructor. Those words gave the students deep fear.
At that time, Seulgi Yoon thought.
‘If I don’t do anything, I might be kicked out of this place…’
The second problem was whether to trust Choi Joo-won or not. Helmund Academy has so many queues that it is difficult to enter again from the moment you leave.

Most of the parents of everyone here, not just Yoon Seul-gi, belong to a prestigious guild.
Of course, the expectations are high as well. They didn’t know what their parents would do if they got kicked out on the way. Because their parents sent them to Helmund Academy and the expectations were high.
In this world, there are places such as laws, NPS, and magic investigation agencies, but in any case, it is a world where force and money are the best values.
The world of weak meat food. The flow of this world is the guild leader of Baal. You can tell by looking at Choi Seung-hyun’s nonsensical behavior.
– What’s arrogant, you turned down my offer, you bastard. do you want to follow
Choi Seung-hyeon, the leader of the Baal guild, who tried to break his arm by pouring mana into his mouth and spitting out reckless words to Choi Joo-won, whom he had never seen for the first time. He didn’t seem afraid of the law.
The reason is that he had ‘strong force’ and ‘power’.
State agency, NPS, magic investigation agency? If they all attack together, it is certain that Choi Seung-hyeon will also suffer a lot of damage. But the problem is that the reverse works. In order to attack a group called Baal, which consists of hundreds of Class A and Class B, the nation would have to suffer enormous damage. In the end, there was an unwritten rule that the state and Baal would not interfere with each other unless it was a big issue.
In other words, if you have power and power, you can solve most problems. That is why parents send their children, who were not selected as prosecutors, to Helmund Academy, which allows them to grow quickly through dungeon admission tickets and various benefits, even while paying a huge tuition fee.
At the time when he sent a letter to Choi Joo-won, Yoon Seul-gi was trembling and thinking.
‘If I send a text message saying I believe in myself, or if I do nothing and get kicked out later…’
Helmund Academy is called a prestigious place, so there were many people. If it is known to the industry that you have been expelled from this place for unsavory things, you will not be able to enter other academies.
In addition, not receiving the various benefits provided by the academy means the growth potential stops. In the world of weak meat eating, it was nothing less than a death sentence.
Yoon Seulgi cried and talked.
“Uhhhh… I… I was only thinking about my own comfort, so I’m not sure, but I cursed the instructor.”
Kim Si-yeon looked at Yoon Seul-gi, who was crying, and murmured.
“I was genuinely suspicious. I resent myself so much… I really liked the instructor, so I must have felt betrayed for a moment because of that. Why couldn’t you believe what the instructor was crying out for being framed like that?”
Kim Si-yeon remembered Choi Joo-won crying at the academy.
– Kids, I’ve never really been like that. Where am I going to take your personal information and use it, I have no interest in other people’s photos, conversations, or phone calls. You know I’m not that kind of person. please trust me please I’m sorry. it’s really sad
Inside the academy that has become static.
-Ttogak
-Ttogak
-Ttogak
A girl walked up. A girl with yellow hair and a slim body. As Baek Hyun-seo walked up the stairs, he was taken aback by the huge crowd.
– Tak Tak Tak
Kim Si-yeon quickly walked to Baek Hyun-seo with an angry expression. And he spoke in a cold voice.
“Baekhyun-seo. did you watch the video yesterday Testimony came out that your father framed the instructor. You didn’t know anything?”
Thousands of students huddled in the back. Baekhyun-seo looks at Baekhyun-seo with eyes filled with resentment and hatred.
– Parrrrr
Shivering with fear, Baek Hyun-seo answered.
“I… I…”
