Chapter 862 – 862. Hero Academy (6)
“Instructor, would you like to come over to my house this weekend?”
“Her…”
Unlike her appearance, Yeriel was older than the wise men who had an aged appearance.
She said that she had experienced many incidents, and was confident that she was the type to keep calm in her own way.
But such a Yeriel…
Haha… You should also take a break during vacation. If the instructor comes to see you, can you take a break?”
“Instructor Seong Soo-ah told me not to rest. I think I’ll be more diligent with the instructor by my side, too?”
“Her…”
Seo Ji-eun’s cute attitude made her mouth open.
And while she was embarrassed, she also understood Seo Ji-eun’s appearance.
‘But… Nothing earns her respect more than saving her life.’
Even Yeri-El didn’t know the exact situation, but she knew that Seongsu-ho saved Seo Ji-eun’s life.
Naturally, the instructor had a duty to protect her cadet.
But just because she has a duty to keep, she is extremely rarely a person who puts it into practice.
Nevertheless, Seong Su-ho risked his life to save Seo Ji-eun.
It was not strange that Seo Ji-eun, who had received her grace, clung to her like that.
Seo Ji-eun didn’t even know that Yeri-el and Seong-su-ah had left the classroom.
“If it is inconvenient, even if it is a restaurant operated by us…”
It was the moment when Seong Soo-ho embraced him as if he were tempting.
“Ji-eun, you shouldn’t embarrass Instructor Seong Su-ho.”
“Ah!”
Upon hearing Seong Soo-ah’s voice, Seo Ji-eun recognized that Yeriel and Seong Su-ah had come out of the classroom.
Then, she quickly changed her expression to a calm expression as usual after stepping away from Seongsuho.
“Sorry.”
“Whoops, it’s okay.”
Seong Soo-ah began to mediate between the two, sneaking between Seong Su-ho and Seo Ji-eun.
“Instructor Seong Soo-ho will be busy at the beginning of the vacation too. If there is something important, you can contact me later.”
“Yes, I will keep that in mind.”
Seo Ji-eun nodded her head more calmly even though Seong-su-ah intervened.
As Yeriel looked at the three of them, she put on an excited expression.
‘It’s fun.’
Yeriel was also roughly guessing the relationship between Seong Su-ho and Seong Su-ah.
In such a situation, Seo Ji-eun appeared.
Even Seo Ji-eun seemed interested in Seong Su-ho.
But the funny thing is…
“I’m also busy this week, so it must be difficult… I will definitely visit you when I have time.”
It was the fact that Seong Soo-ho did not look at her Seo Ji-eun as anything more than her cadet.
‘That’s interesting. She seduces Seo Ji-eun that much, but it’s strange that she doesn’t go beyond it…’
Seo Ji-eun was not only outstanding in her looks, but she was also the son of a conglomerate family known around the world.
If she had been another male assistant instructor or a male cadet, she would have melted right away in Seo Ji-eun’s cuteness and would have been completely lost.
But Seong Soo-ho…
“I hope that training with me will be of some help.”
She didn’t look at Seo Ji-eun as a woman at all.
And seeing Seong Su-ho and Seo Ji-eun…
“…”
Sung Soo-ah was smiling with satisfaction.
Yeriel looked at Seong Soo-ho and Seo Ji-eun, and Sung Soo-ah, who was smiling as if she had won between them, and she smiled without realizing it.
‘… I’m envious.’
While Yeriel looked at her with an envious expression, Seongsuho opened her mouth.
“Okay then, I’ll walk you to the school gate.”
“Ah…”
Seongsuho’s voice brought Yeriel to her senses.
The target he was talking about was Seo Ji-eun, not himself.
“I-I can go alone.”
“Anyway, I have something to do at the school gate, so I have to go.”
Seong Soo-ho tried to take Seo Ji-eun back like that.
Seeing Seongsuho like that, Yeriel smiled mischievously and opened his mouth.
“Take me too.”
“Is Yeriel-nim passing away too?”
“I’m done with my errands, and I’m going back soon.”
“All right. Let’s go together.”
Like that, Yeriel headed to the school gate with Seong Soo-ho, Seo Ji-eun, and Seong Su-ah.
As Yeriel walked away, caught between the three of them, she remembered what had happened.
‘If I had smiled like that in the past… Would everything be different?’
Yeriel let go of the pressure she had been feeling for a while, and she smiled as she felt her heart rest between the three of them.
***
As soon as I entered the dorm room, I lay down on the bed and sighed deeply.
“I’m tired since morning…”
After meeting with the principal, I headed straight to the engineering classroom.
The reason I went to the engineering classroom was to say goodbye to the cadets heading to their home.
Fortunately, when I arrived at the classroom, the cadets were saying goodbye to Cho Seo-hyeon, so I was able to say hello before leaving school.
After seeing off her cadets like that, she had a private conversation with her super Seohyeon, and got to hear the sad news from her.
The news…
(I think I will be away for about a week.)
It was the fact that Cho Seo-hyun was also leaving the consulate.
The reason for leaving is the guild.
It was because her super Seohyun had a problem with her guild and called her.
I wondered if it was the same reason as the top, so I asked why…
(Sorry. I don’t know the details either, and no matter how close I am… It’s hard to talk about the guild’s internal circumstances.)
I could understand Cho Seo-hyun’s position.
The guild that Cho Seohyun belonged to was not as large as the top 3 guilds.
However, no matter how small or medium the guild was, speaking carelessly about the internal situation was something a hero should of course refrain from.
The good news is that the reason Cho Seo-hyeon was called to the guild was not because of an emergency situation like Seong Soo-ah.
(It’s called this once or twice a year. Don’t worry too much.)
After Seohyeon Cho reassured me, she hurried back to the dormitory, saying she had to get ready to leave the consulate.
Although she was worried about Seohyun, she decided that it would not be too late to find out about her situation later.
After that, I headed straight to the magic classroom.
The reason I went to the magic classroom was simple.
‘Yeriel was there, but…’
She was sure that Yeriel would go find Seongsuah, and she was in order to overhear the conversation between the two.
However, an unexpected variable occurred.
‘Ha… I didn’t know Seo Ji-eun would cling to her like that.’
The variable was Seo Ji-eun, who suddenly spoke to me.
She had a chance to secretly eavesdrop on the conversation between the two, but Seo Ji-eun suddenly clung to her, so she missed the opportunity.
In the end, I had no choice but to see Yeriel off while missing the opportunity.
It would have been easier if I went to the spirit state from the beginning and eavesdropped…
‘What… I saw the kids off, so let’s be content with that.’
If he had gone in the spirit state, he would have been able to overhear the conversation between Seongsuah and Yeriel, but he would not have been able to send farewell to the students instead.
I smiled bitterly and checked the time.
“It’s almost time for lunch…”
It was just pointing to 12 o’clock.
I had only finished my morning routine, but I felt exhausted already.
I began to worry about the time.
‘I don’t think Cho Seo-hyun and Seong Soo-ah will be able to eat together because they are preparing to leave. Should I eat alone… ? Ah!’
At that moment, I thought of a person passing through my mind.
‘Should I meet Ji-Ana Yoon?’
Jiah Yoon.
She was Ko Chung-shin’s lover and a recovery instructor serving as an instructor in the school.
She is from the Order, but she was a woman who knew less about the Order than I did, perhaps because she had just joined the company.
Even these days, I occasionally exchanged calls or text messages from her, but I couldn’t meet her because she was recently meeting with Seohyeon Cho and Sooah Seong.
Fortunately, it was the fact that Ji-ah Yoon did not show any regrets through text messages or phone calls.
She reminded me that just the fact of communicating with me is enough to make me happy.
For Yoon Ji-ah, sex was rather an additional factor.
‘Then contact Jiah Yoon…’
It was the moment when I tried to contact Yoon Ji-ah using the smart watch.
[Suho, there is a call from Moon Jua.]
‘What!?’
As soon as I heard Armonia’s voice, I asked after putting Yoon Ji-ah out of the corner of her head.
‘Is it urgent?’
[That’s not it. It’s just a simple call.]
‘Whew…’
I swallowed the tension that was about to burst out again and asked.
‘What did you call?’
[…]
Even though I asked, Armonia remained silent.
After a while, she spoke in a calm voice.
[‘I miss you. I wrote ‘Master’ on a piece of paper.]
‘…’
It was an unexpected harvest.
It was just an order to embarrass Munjua, but I never thought I would hear her words with the voice of Armonia.
I pretended not to hear and asked again.
‘Armonia, I couldn’t hear what you said. Yet again…’
[I will prepare a cloak and a warp to reduce perception.]
At the same time as Armonia’s answer, a cloak was created in front of me.
‘Ah, I’ll do it for you, in a mean way…’
I grumbled and put on the Cognition Impairment Cloak that Armonia sent me.
And as soon as I put on the Cognition Cloak, warp light began to wrap around me.
And after a while, the light faded and the scene unfolded before my eyes…
‘… Where are you?’
An abandoned building with piles of garbage caught my eye.
It was such an abandoned building that the walls of the building had collapsed and the building itself seemed miraculous.
‘… Could this be where Moon Joo-a is living?’
[That’s right.]
‘Ha…’
I sighed and slowly entered the building while remaining hidden.
As soon as I entered the building, I took my first breath…
‘Big… My lungs are rotting.’
Crumpled his face
No kidding, it was a place full of toxic smells that made my lungs suffer.
It had poison in a different meaning from the poison felt inside the dungeon.
As soon as I entered the building…
“And!? Are you really here?”
Moon Joo-ah greeted me with a bright smile.
When Munjua called me she held the written paper and smiled at her palak.
“And… It’s crazy. How do you find out about this?”
Moon Ju-ah’s tone was vulgar, but apart from her tone, she really welcomed me.
“There is no reason for me to lie.”
“Her… Now I believe everything you say.”
Munjua smiled as if she had completely erased the disbelief she felt for the last time.
She then started to usher me inside.
I asked Armonia via communication as I entered the abandoned building that was filled with a terrible smell.
‘Is Moon Joo-ah still living alone here?’
[That’s right. We have settled here and are using it as a residence.]
‘Ha…’
The reason I sighed wasn’t just because of the ugly appearance.
Because of the inside.
It wasn’t enough that it was full of garbage, so there were animal carcasses and feces all over the place.
It was not a sanitary condition in which people could live.
After walking through such an abominable place, I was able to arrive at the place where Munjua lived.
‘… Ha ha, I’m going crazy.’
In an instant, her thoughts almost came out of her mouth.
The residence where Moon Joo-ah was staying was in such poor condition that even the homeless were frightened.
Fortunately, her bedding and wardrobe were in good condition.
However, it was only good compared to the surroundings.
It must have been in the best condition retrieved from the trash heap…
Moon Ju Ah also blushed and spoke gibberish as if she was ashamed of her home and her residence.
“I-I don’t normally live in a place like this! I cut ties with the organization and went into hiding, so I have no choice but to stay here.”
As soon as Moon Ju-ah heard her words, she could understand her.
Moon Joo-ah was currently being chased by the church.
Under such circumstances, living a comfortable life is a luxury… No, that would be impossible.
No, on the contrary, I could say that Moon Joo-ah’s appearance was not embarrassing, but rather a great aspect.
It’s because she won’t hesitate to go through such a harsh environment in order to achieve her goal.
I asked her, cutting off her excuse of her mother-in-law in the middle of her.
“Do you have anywhere else to stay other than here?”
“Getting clothes and food is possible with fists, but it’s not as easy as a house.”
Organizations operating in the shadows do not use abandoned buildings as shelters for nothing.
At least, it is possible if I do individual activities like Hwang Min-seo.
It’s okay to act as a disguise, and if there is a problem, just remove Hwang Min-seo and that’s it.
But Moon Ju-ah couldn’t even do that.
Since he is being chased in two places, the good and the bad, his disguised identity will not be safe.
‘… Still, it’s rough here.’
It was not a joke, but it was a terrible place to the extent that Moon Joo-ah felt guilty.
Moonjua would think that she destroyed her own organization by her own will.
However, the reason she acted like that was because, as a result, I was subordinated to her and wrote the castle wall.
In addition, although it was one-sided, Moon Joo-a was currently serving as my hands and feet.
Her guilt could not be helped.
‘But I can’t let her stay on the ship…’
If you let them stay on the ship, everything will be solved.
However, Moon Ju-ah was not yet in a situation where he had built enough trust to invite him to the ship.
The ship was not owned by me, but belonged to the ship family in the center of Armonia.
In addition to everyone’s consent, the condition of being a person who fits in with the atmosphere had to be met.
But…
[-[Psychopath]-It is not recommended to bring a person with the temperament to the ship.]
‘But…’
I couldn’t imagine that Moon Joo-a, who has the [Psychopath] Temperament, would blend in with the atmosphere.
The moment you think so…
‘Ah! There’s a nice place!’
[… ?]
I didn’t answer Armonia’s questionable silence and asked Moon Ju-ah right away.
“Tell me everything you find out about Hwang Min-seo.”
