I Became a Professor at the Academy

167 – Top Prize(1)

“oh! Did you come!!”

When I came down to the basement, Na Yeon-ju, who had been waiting for me beforehand, bowed at a right angle.

Click!

Then he opened the passenger seat door of the car parked in front of him.

“From now on, stay calm in the car.”

“Ah, yes, yes… … .”

Slightly shrunk, the guy quickly closed the door and went back to get into the driver’s seat.

Glance.

Na Yeon-joo puts her hand on the steering wheel while looking at me.

The destination was notified in advance, so the guy slowly started the car while checking the preset navigation.

“… … .”

“… … .”

In the car, with no music or radio playing, it was very quiet and a very satisfying environment. but.

“I play.”

“Yes, four?!”

The gaze of the guy who kept looking at me was bustling.

“I’m not particularly angry, so don’t mind the underground.”

“oh… … It’s not like that… hehehehe… .”

Unlike Yoo Hee-shin’s seed, he is a guy whose emotions and thoughts are revealed on his face.

“And whatever the other guys say, listen with one ear and let it out with the other.”

“uh… … I didn’t quite understand what you meant… ?”

“Ignore what guys like Idney are saying. Didn’t he tell you what you just did underground?”

“oh!! how did you know… … town!!”

Na Yeon-joo shut her mouth in surprise, like someone who said something she shouldn’t have said. It seemed pretty funny to see him making such a fuss about something that wasn’t even a secret.

“If you understand, from now on just drive right away.”

“… … four.”

silence came again.

“… If you want to hear the song, it’s okay to listen.”

“Oh, thank you!!”

As if she had waited, Na Yeon-joo operated her smartphone to play music through the car’s speakers.

“Hmm~ hmmm~”

“… … .”

I thought that would be the case, but after all, music was just about that much, nothing more and nothing less than noise for me.

“professor. We have arrived.”

The place where the car stopped was in front of a huge building.

The auction itself is held secretly, but since it is not an illegal auction held in the dark, it is held every year in the city center and in the building of the head office operated by them.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

Several people in suits standing at the entrance of the building approached and knocked on the driver’s side window.

From my bosom, I held out a black envelope with the seal of a crow wearing a crown to Na Yeon-joo.

“Let me show you this.”

“Ah, yes.”

Woo woo woo.

The glass window went down, and Na Yeon-ju showed the envelope in her hand.

“I will guide you.”

The man returned the envelope and withdrew.

“Two, it’s a throbbing black… !!”

Na Yeon-joo politely returned the envelope to me, and then moved the car to follow the man who stood in front of me and waved his hand as if to follow me. So we came down to the basement of the building.

“Get off.”

“Ah, I, am I a thin sword too… ?”

“Wouldn’t it be boring to be alone?”

“That, it’s okay, it’s okay… I’m fine on my own… … .”

“Be loud and get down.”

“… … Yep.”

When I got out of the car first, Na Yeon-ju quickly unfastened her belt and got out of the driver’s seat.

“Don’t stand behind, stick by the side.”

“He, I, I am an attendant… … ?”

“I hope you don’t make me say it twice.”

Hurry up!!

Only then did the boy move his steps noisily and stand next to me.

‘It’s right to take him.’

I gave the reason that it would be boring to him, but in reality it was an action considering the attack of the Dark Heaven.

As it is Raven’s headquarters, there must be some useful Awakeners guarding the surroundings, but from my standards, it feels no different than just rolling stones on the floor, except for Claire. In other words, that guy is that guy.

“Whoa, whoa… … .”

The guy who followed me inside admired the walls and floor made of smelting crystal with his mouth open.

Tteing-

“… … !!”

He looked around with a face full of curiosity, and when he heard a sound from the elevator, he quickly hardened his expression and assumed an attendant-like posture as if nothing had happened.

“Be comfortable since you don’t have to meet anyone.”

“Ah, that’s right… ? lol… … .”

Seeing the empty elevator, Na Yeon-joo scratched her head.

“There are no buttons?!”

“… yes.”

While he was amazed, the elevator door closed. and moved upwards. It is an elevator designed to move to the appropriate floor in response to the tension of the envelope in the bosom.

Tteing-

“wow… … .”

As soon as the elevator door opened, Na Yeon-ju, who was standing next to her with a slightly nervous face, opened her eyes wide and opened her mouth wide like an idiot.

“Get down.”

“oh… yes, yes… … .”

Floors and ceilings of ivory marble.

A huge sofa in the center, a wide table, and various alcoholic beverages and refreshments prepared on it.

“Sit down.”

“… … four.”

Yeonju Na followed me and leaned on the sofa.

“If there is something you want to eat, it is okay to eat it without paying attention. If you’re bored, you can sleep.”

“Ah, I see… … .”

The boy nodded, then reached out and took several slices of cakes that were displayed in a nice oval display case and began to eat them with a fork.

how much time had passed

“Ah, something has started!!”

The guy who was nibbling on the sticks came closer to me with his eyes twinkling when the image of the auction house was projected on the screen.

-I would like to express my gratitude to the distinguished guests who attended.

An emcee wearing a crow mask climbs onto the podium and bows her head.

-I think everyone is familiar with the rules, so let’s start right away.

As the crow mask moved aside, other crow-masked humans brought a small wooden box onto the podium.

-This is a Tier 11 rift found in Lightning Hill, which occurred in China. Bids will start at $1 million.

“Bae, bae, bae bae, a million… … !!”

Nayeonju pointed her finger at the screen and her lips trembled.

“School, Professor! That, that bead-like pear, is said to be a million dollars… … .”

“Okay, let go.”

“… … ? oh?!”

When he found his hand gripping my sleeve, he rolled to the side in amazement.

“crime-“

“Okay, sit still.”

“… … four.”

The boy returned to his seat and sat down.

-20 million dollars came out. Are there any more?

“This, two thousand… … Knock!!”

“… … .”

I pushed the stunned guy aside and watched the auction.

-Bid for $35 million.

“You get it for nothing.”

Chunroedan.

It is an elixir that not only increases brain property resistance, but also changes mana into brain property so that you can handle brain power.

In the world of Awoken, where one’s birth is almost determined by one’s ability, the value of the elixir that enables one to handle not only rare but powerful thunder attributes is so great that it is worth calling.

Of course, this is a story when you know the effect of the Thunderbolts.

It does not distribute catalogs, nor does it disclose the efficacy or value of the items being auctioned. The only thing Raven guarantees is that the items on the podium are genuine.

Since the bidding price is also decided by the original owner of the product, a high bidding price does not mean that the value is high.

In other words, this place is an auction house and at the same time a place where wealthy people test each other’s eyes.

-The second item is an unknown painting found in a Tier 12 Rift in Texas. Starting price is 3 million dollars.

And the fountain of oblivion I’m trying to find doesn’t have a special name like the picture that just came up on the podium.

That’s why I’m here myself.

-12 million dollars came out… … .

I thought as I watched the fast-paced auction.

I hope it doesn’t go until the fourth day.

after the awards ceremony.

“Everyone has suffered. You know there’s a party in the evening, so please gather in the lobby on time. dissolution.”

match! Jayden clapped his hands lightly. Then, the students who had been tormented by Kang Han-na for several days ran toward the elevator as if they were running away.

“Ha, really, if the kids below did a little better, I could have won first place.”

“Everyone worked hard, so don’t be too hard on yourself.”

“Chit… … .”

In the elevator going up to the room.

When Na Joo-hee grumbled, Yoon Isul lightly laughed and stopped him.

“I think you should consider yourself fortunate to have kept the title of the best in Asia.”

“That’s normal, so that’s it… … . Are you okay?”

Nam Seo-hee didn’t even look at Na Ju-hee’s question, and Baek Ha-na, who looked somewhat dazed, moved her lips in shock.

“Uh, that, that… go? I don’t know because I don’t pay attention to rankings… … .”

“… However, I can’t help it if you say that.”

Had it not been for Baek Ha-na, Na Yeon-joo would have been eliminated in the round of 32, so Na Yeon-joo would not grumble anymore.

Tteing-

After arriving on the floor, Baek Ha-na and the others quickly entered the room.

“It is one. We have some time left until the meeting, shall we go to a restaurant?”

“Oh, no. I have something to prepare… … .”

Tadadak!!

““… … ?””

When Baek Ha-na ran into her room as if she were running away, the three of them who remained in the living room stared blankly at Baek Ha-na’s closed door for a moment.

“Hmm~ Get ready for the party… … It must be a party outfit, right?”

Yoon Isul muttered with an interesting face.

The opening ceremony party outfits were also stimulating enough, but this time, they said that they needed a separate preparation time, so naturally, they are looking forward to it.

Click.

When Baek Ha-na disappeared, Nam Seo-hee also went into her room.

“Have you brought clothes that fit Hana-san’s code… … .”

Yun Iseul also left the living room muttering something incomprehensible.

“I wonder if I can become stronger only if I become that level of weirdness… ?”

Na Joo-hee frowned and walked into the room.

“Uh, how… … ?”

““… … .””

As the meeting time approached, the three of them came out to the living room and could not immediately answer Baek Ha-na’s question as they opened the door.

Not only did it reveal the shoulders, but it was not enough to stick to the body and reveal the outline intact, so it was an unconventional dark red dress that boldly exposed the left thigh.

“more… Shall I… … ?”

Hana Baek twisted her long loose hair with her index finger and tried to cover her thighs by grabbing the skirt that kept spreading to the side.

Knock, knock.

Nam Seo-hee blocked the dripping nosebleeds and raised her thumb instead as an answer.
