Academy Silver Gatekeeper

80 – getting famous – 3

Wake up time that is no different from before, and get ready to go to work.

But when I put on my shoes and went outside, I realized that I had been mistaken.

“Mr. Baek Seo-jin.”

When I went outside, I saw a black sedan and a group of people in suits standing around it.

While I was thinking what is this all of a sudden, a man in a suit came forward.

“I was waiting.”

“… What about national security again?”

“Yes? Ahhh! no. We are not like that.”

or what Anyone can see that it looks like that.

As I narrowed my eyes and looked at it, the man in a suit hurriedly continued.

“We are just people who will accompany Mr. Baek Seo-jin on his way to work.”

“Companion?”

“Yes. To be precise, it should be called a bodyguard.”

Are you a guard? what is this all of a sudden

When I tilted my head to mean that I didn’t understand, the chieftain explained.

Currently, I have been designated as an important person, so a security team has been attached.

It’s not meant to be a bother at all, just that it’s all about protection at the national level.

If they move to a designated safe place afterwards, this will not happen.

“In short, you have to move out of here after all.”

“Unfortunately, yes. The distance to the academy where you work is too long. As far as I know, I heard that public transportation also requires a few transfers.”

“It is.”

“In addition. There are too few talented people around here to help Mr. Baek Seo-jin. In view of these aspects, it can be very difficult to obtain support in the event of an emergency.”

The reason I explain is that I am doing this for my own safety.

But it will never be purely for that purpose.

How nice it would be if everything in the world was pure.

It seems to me that there may be an additional purpose of surveillance.

It’s like the guy who’s about to have a fight with Elder is actually a trickster planted by the villains.

Or, like Hyun Su-jin or Kwak Hyuk, he could become a traitor who holds the sword upside down.

“Let’s go at once. If you leave now, you will arrive at least 20 minutes earlier than you normally would.”

Who are you kidding now? The word itched in my mouth.

What a boast about getting to work 20 minutes early, damn it.

Isn’t it right to go to work on time unconditionally?

The desire to say something was like a chimney.

‘… No, let’s wait. After all, these people went to work earlier because they were waiting for me.’

There is one thing I felt during my life as a civil servant.

At least let’s not make the ends tired.

We must all know that each other will die from hardships anyway.

Isn’t there a reason for me to come out and say something I hate and give it a hard time.

“… Let’s go.”

So I obediently boarded the black sedan pointed by the man in the suit.

After that, when Jeong-nam got into the passenger seat and gave the signal to start, the vehicles started to move.

I slowly turned my head and looked behind me.

A black van followed behind the car I was in.

It looked like a vehicle with the group of suits we saw earlier.

“How many people are there?”

“There are 7 people including me, this friend, and the team members coming from behind.”

“… Isn’t that too much?”

First of all, the man in suit sitting in the passenger seat is an A-class or a skilled person who has reached that level.

And if it’s the team members, even if they’re below that level, their skills won’t be bad.

I wondered if it was a serious waste of manpower that seven people with such abilities were mobilized.

“Not at all.”

Of course, the man in the suit asked back as if he was talking about something.

“I heard about Baek Seo-jin’s performance from his colleagues who were present at the time. He said that he fought a fierce battle with the elder and seriously injured him. The examiner’s struggle to protect the students. It was really impressive.”

“That’s just… I was a bit crazy. How did you think of attacking Elder?”

“That’s what matters. I wonder if even a handful of people with special abilities, even me, will be able to talk to them properly, let alone attack them, if they think that Elder is in front of them.”

After that, the man in suit told me stories that I felt ashamed of.

It was a good stimulus for those who were too obsessed with grades and gave up when there was a difference in grades.

Was it a clear warning about the recent surge in attacks by villains?

“In addition, there was also an article saying that not too long ago, the number of cases in which children were named with Seojin was increasing… .”

damn, stop it Isn’t this enough for the villains to try to assassinate me?

Or making a shameful death because of excessive shame. yeah that’s for sure

“Stop talking about it. It’s kind of like that.”

“Ahh. Do you? You look very shy.”

If you hear such words and feel fine, is that a person?

Being famous is good. Yes, this is good, but even the names of the children are a bit.

“Well, I guess I will. Mr. Baek Seo-jin just acted because he thought it was something he had to do. Because it looks different to other people.”

excuse me. Let’s stop, please. stop!

let’s go quietly I’m going to open the door and run out.

*

It’s real. In fact, I came 20 minutes earlier than the original start time.

Originally, this is a difference of more than 30 minutes, so I bought some coffee and was late.

The work hours are the same, but the work hours are early. what hell is this

I sigh and try to get out of the car.

A man in a suit who was sitting in the passenger seat said, ‘Wait.’ and caught me

“Isn’t your work time always set?”

“You’re coming over when you’re off work?”

“Of course. It should be like this until you move to a designated safe place.”

“Please look at your work hours. Shouldn’t I be free from work too?”

“But… .”

“And if you take me home, it means that everyone will be off work much later.”

what is this all of a sudden? This is really important.

It’s a tragedy that someone else’s work is delayed because of me.

If I condone that, I will have nothing to say even if I am late for work.

If my time off work is precious, consider other people’s time off work as well.

It is an attitude that everyone should keep in their hearts as they live through this tough time.

“ah… That, thank you so much for thinking of us. But… .”

“If there is a problem with the superiors, I will tell the dean, Professor Ji-yoon Han, and President Min-seong Kang to deal with it. So, you only do this when you go to work.”

I think my proposal was very attractive.

The man in the suit started to notice while salivating.

I thought I couldn’t just wait here.

There was no time to go to work that was so inconvenient. By the way, is it like this after work?

They say we can become close friends after some time, but I’m a bit shy.

I don’t particularly like this kind of treatment, so I want to avoid it somehow.

“I made a strong request. No, report that you made a ‘request’. Then it will be.”

It’s a bit strange that a public official makes such a strong request.

But now I realized that my presence has definitely changed from before.

If so, the ‘request’ you’re appealing now will be accepted differently by them.

“… I will contact the upper management first.”

The man in suit must have known my sincerity and finally accepted it.

‘This prevented the way home from work, which was highly likely to be embarrassing.’

Arrived 20 minutes earlier than usual.

Get off work early, go to work late. The opposite situation there.

I feel like I’m already tired.

The screening is not difficult or boring, but going to work itself is always painful.

But thanks to that, there were also good parts.

That is, I was able to return to my seat before more students flocked to me.

Even now, whenever I take a step, I can feel the eyes of the students looking at me.

It’s not a gaze sent in a bad way. They are all friendly eyes.

“uh? what. Aren’t you the judge? I heard you lost consciousness?”

“The news is so late. There was an article about him regaining consciousness, you human.”

“More than great. How long has it been since you went to work again?”

Yeah. Even I think I’m really great. No, are you crazy?

“What will happen if this happens? Can I go up to the silver level?”

“It makes no sense. How about a person who survives after a fight with Elder?”

“Isn’t it already beyond level A? What is that person’s grade?”

Unfortunately, it’s still a C grade. I guess I’ll see a re-measurement soon.

“It’s not winning, it’s judging. You just need to prove your qualifications to wear a silver business card.”

“So, is that easy? What level is that person’s eyes!”

Well, as long as it’s Lee Hyun-woo or Kim Soo-hyun, it’ll catch your eye right away.

And since I don’t expect that much from you, there’s nothing to worry about.

If you do it right, I think I’ll send it to you.

‘Sometimes, when I see it, students get tired of it because they get it wrong.’

When I go into the judging, I know that I have to beat me unconditionally.

It’s not like the judging conditions have been set to win unconditionally.

Just doing your best and showing your hard work is enough.

‘The key is what the penalty will be, but I can’t hold it indefinitely.’

I think about this and that, and I listen to this and that.

Heading to the rating center, I had to stop thinking for a moment.

‘Who is it?’

A male student sitting in the middle of the exam hall.

At first, I thought it was someone, but when I got a little closer, I could see that it was Lee Hyun-woo.

With almost an hour left until the lecture, I wanted to do something.

But the moment I saw one of the placards in his hand.

“… What is that again, the fuck.”

Unknowingly, such self-talk came out of nowhere.

I wondered if I had seen it wrong. So try blinking your eyes once or twice.

However, it was still the same, so I rubbed it as hard as I could.

– Guaranteed daily screening! Right absolute shooter! –

“… .”

Has that bastard finally gone mad? Is that the main character?
