I Became an Academy Regular
Chapter 160
Epilogue
“ah! thank you.”
After the graduation ceremony, I handed Astiel a bouquet of flowers. Astiel was wearing a bachelor’s hat that was bigger than his head, so he looked a little ridiculous.
In her arms, there was already a flower given by Jin Ga-yul and Chae Yu-ah, members of the other student council. Behind her, while squeezing her, I could see the infant and Jingayul comforting her.
Astiel, who received the flower, said with a bashful smile.
“I wish you good luck with the 2nd year student council.”
“···yes. Do not worry.”
groan how did this happen
In the past, no major events have occurred until now after the last ‘fallen hero’. Naturally, I continued to work on the student council, which I had put off.
There is no need to be there because there are no related perks that I was expecting…
‘Because there is no reason not to.’
Now, first-year juniors will join the student council, and I think it would be convenient if I could take over my work.
Astiel looked at the holy sword I was carrying behind my back.
“How about changing your position as a prosecutor? Isn’t it awkward?”
“Um, I didn’t really feel anything after writing all of this. In the beginning, I belonged to a special class.”
“okay? I’m glad.”
When I was in my sophomore year, if I had to pick one change, I changed my position from a gunner to a prosecutor. Although I am still using a gun, this is to emphasize the symbolism of me who owns the ‘Holy Sword’.
Astiel forcibly hugged the bouquet in one arm and stabbed me in the chest with his free hand.
“You with the holy sword are the face of the temple, so take good care of your image.”
“Hmmmm…. I am very concerned about that.”
Around this time last year, the notoriety of ‘Seo Ji-han’ was huge. Because everyone I met harbored malice toward me. However, my notoriety gradually faded without knowing whether people’s reputations change quickly.
As I belonged to a special class and saw only the face I always saw, my image was washed away naturally. She was also a member of the student council.
“What. I know you don’t talk much these days.”
“Is that right?”
“Because I can’t even talk to the saint.”
Anyway, there was no way to proceed with the scenario, so I was able to invest time in building a new force that was originally planned. I was going back and forth between the temple and various things.
‘There is a job on the side of Drakan.’
The survivors of the village were now living well under the protection of the temple. I acted as a bridge to pass their news on. This is because, officially, temples and drakans are not related to each other.
‘At that time, Riel was also reliable, so he returned the magic sword.’
The holy sword I have now has been awakened once again by the magic sword at that time.
There were a few things that seemed to interfere with the tower, but it wasn’t much of a problem.
The tower was now doing everything it could to stop the erosion coming down. The reason they are so free to work is that it is the tower forces that take immediate damage from erosion.
“I’m going to ask you again, do you have no intention of rejoining the temple?”
“yes. It probably wouldn’t be possible. Really unintentionally.”
He also had a holy sword, and he was also affiliated with a temple to build a faster force. There were things like that to raise my divine power stats, but the perks that were activated at that time were a problem.
[Privilege 73. ‘Dedicate yourself to God’ is activated.]
[Faith deepens, believes in God, increases the rate of increase in divine power stats, always applied while staying in the temple]
Since this is an effect related to the mental power of faith, it was activated at the same time as ‘a strong mind’.
두 특전은 서로 반대되는 특전의 효과보다 강하게 재활성화되었고 그로 인해 내 뇌가 자극에 녹아내릴 것만 같았다. 그래서 결국 특전을 꺼버리고 말을 바꿔 신전 소속에서 탈퇴했다.
가입한지 30초만에 말이다.
그 굳건하던 성녀의 호감도가 그 사건으로 인해 쭉 떨어졌지만 어쩔 수 없었다. 특전을 하나만 꺼버리는 기능도 없고.
게임으로 치자면 이건 명백한 버그라 나는 신전에 소속되지 못한다고 보는 게 맞았다.
‘호감도를 다시 복구하느라 힘들었지.’
그것 때문에 신전의 일들을 도맡아서 해줬으니.
그래도 성과는 있었는지 신전과 황실 사이에 탑 공략을 위한 동맹에 대해서 조금씩 이야기가 오가기 시작했다.
탑 세력의 상황도 그렇고, 그쪽을 믿을 수 없다는 여론이 커졌기 때문이다.
“아무튼 졸업해도 너랑은 자주 보게 되겠네.”
“그러게요.”
“회장님!!!”
“선배님!”
At that time, Astiel’s juniors and junior high school students rushed to Astiel with bouquets of flowers. The force was so strong that I was pushed aside. I could see a small hand barely rising above the crowd’s heads.
“President. Do not go!!!”
“Please don’t graduate!!!”
“I’ll see you later!”
So Astiel was swept away by the howling crowd. I watched the scene with a strange feeling.
‘Is Astiel leaving the Yoosung Academy with this?’
After that, you’ll be able to see it from the tower…, but I’m feeling a bit shaky for nothing. Can you see Astiel’s rapid growth?
Anyway, I never dreamed that I would be able to do a high school graduation ceremony in a game in my life. It’s an academy, but they’re all at that age, so you can think of it that way.
[Also, Astiel. It’s popular. ha ha ha!]
The satisfied voice of the holy sword was heard.
I agreed and went out of the auditorium. Whoo! A sharper wind pierced my face.
[Privilege 80. ‘This cold and cold’ is activated.]
[‘Ice’ attribute-related ability amplification, cold resistance increase]
Outside the auditorium, a silver-haired wizard was seen warming himself with a blue flame burning. I approached him calling out his name.
Ellen turned her head to my voice and said with a happy face.
“Are you done saying goodbye?”
“uh. How is yours?”
“Um, that’s how it ended up.”
Ellen smiled bitterly with a face full of pressure and took out a small necklace from her arms. It was clear what it proved.
[Manager on the 25th floor]
Does this mean that Ellen manages the 25th floor…?
“What should the manager on the 25th floor do?”
“I don’t know because I haven’t received a handover yet. As far as I’m concerned, don’t feel burdened.”
“I still can’t help but have it.”
“Haha, I will.”
When Ellen took over as the manager, the situation at the tower had become serious. All the top-level wizards who held major positions below the 50th floor were urgently summoned to the upper floors. And those who will take on the vacant position were the ‘Tower’ currently led by Ellen.
Since they are wizards who prioritize their abilities and personal connections, it was a bold decision in a way that looked at their age.
‘The problem was the 3rd graders graduating now.’
The notoriety of those third graders was so high, the variable was that they didn’t know what they would do in the tower if they had a chance again. Although the most important position, the manager on the 25th floor, was obtained by Ellen.
Ellen caresses her cheeks red from the cold.
“I was going to do it at Jihan’s request, but… is it because of Noah?”
“yes. Olivia Roa said it. The 25th floor is important to Noah, so we have to protect it.”
When Roa heard the news, she went to Ellen directly and asked her while bowing down to her waist. Ellen raised her lips, wondering if she recalled her memories of that time.
“What. It’s not bad for the guy who used to bully me to talk to me.”
“ね. I’m glad.”
Roa must have said that because of Noah Park’s faith… but I was lucky too. Because I was able to keep Noah Park’s ‘Respawn’ area safe.
“They are slowly gathering in front of the school gate.”
“Ugh. Did Arwell go first?”
“Maybe he did?”
After the graduation ceremony was over, we decided to visit Noah Park with a special class. I still have some time left until my appointment. I’ll have to stop by the dorm for a while to put my luggage.
“I’ll stop by the dormitory for a moment and then go.”
“yes. See you later.”
After breaking up with Ellen, I headed home.
Several thoughts were running through my mind. It was an unexpected result for me that Noah Park was still unconscious. Maybe there’s something I don’t know.
····If Noah Park does not return even after the beginning of the second year, then it cannot be delayed any longer. You just have to try another way.
‘What is Ryu Seo-yeon going to do now?’
Because he was busy, he didn’t show his face at the graduation ceremony. Are you saying that you don’t even care about the academy now that you’re a dropout? As soon as I thought of it, I tried to take out my smartphone to contact him.
“Hey!”
At that time, he could not avoid the guy carrying the luggage in front of him. The load that had been piled high enough to block my view fell to the floor as it collided with me.
I apologized and started to pick up the fallen things. Seeing that he has so much luggage, he seems to be a freshman entering the dormitory today.
“No, sir! I should have seen it and avoided it.”
“no. More injured than that…”
When I lifted my head, I saw a familiar face and innocent eyes staring at me.
[Special. 15- ‘She relaxes her mind’ is activated.]
“Seniors?”
···The guy who bumped into me was the original, ‘103rd Tower’.
He was the last main heroine.
On the table was a plaque that read [CEO Ryu Seo-yeon]. With that in between, Drakhan and Ryu Seo-yeon were watching each other.
The dark room was enough to evoke a strange tension. It was Drakhan who broke the silence and opened his mouth first.
“Hmm. Just as Ahart said. Is she really running this huge company?”
At Drakhan’s question, Ryu Seo-yeon, wearing a suit, laughed and asked rather.
“Do you think you have any pride?”
“I see you are contacting me now. Or is there no other way now?”
It was clearly meant to touch the nerves.
Drakhan was momentarily at a loss for words at the sarcastic remark. But Ah Hart had already told him something, so he shook his head and responded.
“miss. I have no intention of arguing for nothing. that, what Let’s go simple with a business thing.”
Then, Ryu Seo-yeon, who had her eyes widened, sighed heavily.
“Huh, I guess Ahat-san told you something?”
“what. Do you have tea?”
“I want you to keep it a secret.”
“Wow. I know.”
Ryu Seo-yeon added, perhaps for excuses.
“First of all, I’m sorry. Because I’m young, there are a lot of people who look down on me. The notoriety I had heard about was so strong, I had a preconceived notion.”
“I even need to apologize. The word is cooperation, isn’t the lady the boss?”
Then there was something that stood out for Drakhan. A strange creature was moving in the glass box on the table.
“What is that?”
“Ah, this? It’s called ‘Ryu’. Our company’s unofficial mascot.”
“What a strange creature.”
“It’s a lump. Because it gave me a chance to face the tower.”
“…I have something to check about that.”
“yes. Ask anything.”
Drakhan recalled the question Riel had asked him to ask.
“As the head of a company, why do you want to turn the top power into an enemy?”
“Is that what Drakhan-san is talking about?”
“I am an individual, but I am not a lady. Isn’t it a position where there are many responsibilities?”
“Hmm. There are many reasons, but to sum up, the tower is getting bigger and bigger. As if blindfolded, they robbed their weapons and built a gate on top of them…”
Ryu Seo-yeon crossed her legs and muttered with the cynical expression she had treated with Drakhan for the first time.
“…More than anything else, he made my precious friend in danger again and again.”
“Is there an answer?”
Drakhan nodded slowly. For once, this was enough.
“Then let’s get straight to the point. You and the weapon man. The two of you will live in the name of the Black Hawk.”
“great. What are the conditions for that?”
Then, Seo-yeon Ryu answered with a strange smile.
“To climb the tower with Untitled Noah Park.”
“What. Park Noah hasn’t come to his senses yet.”
Saying that, Seo-yeon Ryu lifted the glass box on the table. And he looked at ‘Liyu’ moving inside with a gaze full of affection.
