Admission ceremony (4)

The door to the student council room kept opening and closing, and aspiring heroes rushed in and out. Since the entrance ceremony is an important event to reinforce the manpower not only in Yoosung Academy but also other organizations, we always do our best to prevent accidents from happening.

Fighting between heroes who used to be close friends is basic, and even between races that hate each other, the scouting competition heated up, and the argument escalated into a physical fight.

Since the Meteor Academy was almost the only functioning academy in the 103rd District, it was inevitable that it would be heated.

In such a situation, it was the leadership team that moved to mediate.

“There was an argument between the heroes in Area C!”

“The scouts of the mercenaries—.”

“Find out the members nearby…”

Reports coming from all over the student council room as a base and instructions for handling them were heard loudly. Astiel Grand hastily dealt with the problems that arose by successively stacking blessings on himself.

“Uh-.”

It feels like my brain is melting. It’s been over a week since I haven’t slept properly since I was preparing for the entrance ceremony one after another. Have you slept for a total of 12 hours so far? My head was dazed, but the moment I put the blessing on it, it became clearer, so I took advantage of that gap and took care of things.

Astiel thought that it would be good to finish this task as soon as possible. Fortunately, the happy imagination that came to mind in between was the support.

‘When this is done, go to the dorm, turn off the phone, get warm water in the bathtub, and soak yourself…’

At that moment, the door to the student council room opened again, breaking Astiel’s imagination. The aspiring hero with the armband of the leader who opened the door shouted.

“Student President!”

“…again, why!”

Astiel got up from his seat and shouted as if complaining to the leader who had just entered.

“I’m begging you, can’t you just report it to the head of the department other than me now?! Ariane, where is that bastard right now! Tell me to stop passing it on! I don’t even have three bodies—.”

“Oh, no. Not this time.”

The leader was embarrassed and waved his hand and said.

“I just got in touch with an official from a prominent guild who just attended the entrance ceremony.”

“Uh…, hair. What do you say?”

Astiel sat back down and leaned back on the chair.

“As a result of checking, there is actually a scout named Jack, but he didn’t attend the Yoosung Academy today.”

“That’s right…”

Astiel turned his head to the side and looked at the middle-aged man leaning against the wall. He was tied to a chain made of divine power and had no blood on his face, so he felt like he would die any moment, but he was forced to heal and hide.

“As expected, this person is an impersonator. It’s good that you contacted the wizard in advance.”

“…Then will you release me now?”

“What about the wizard?”

“I’m going to send someone to the student council room soon.”

“What’s going on? They always tell you to take care of yourself. Is there something this time?”

“excuse me.”

“…I, Chairman.”

The clerk raised his hand and called for Astiel.

“Why? Clerk?”

“Shouldn’t this friend be released now?”

The secretary pointed to Seo Ji-han, who was sitting quietly next to him.

Seo Ji-han, who had a resigned expression on her face, was still tied in a white chain.

“…Ah, that’s right.”

👌👌👌👌 Astiel waved his hands, the white chains that bound me disintegrated and disappeared. It was then that my body slowly began to regain strength. I couldn’t figure out how the power was cut off.

Rather, that guy. Somehow he was pretending not to hear me, even if I spoke to him.

‘Astiel Grand.’ That tired, gray-haired nun is one of the ‘sub-heroes’ of this game. There were strangely many gamers who liked that guy.

Although she is now sensitive and small and weak due to chronic fatigue, there was an event where Astiel reunited in the tower after graduating from Yoosung Academy.

At that time, she ate well and slept well, and she grew up to be a nun with a benevolent personality unlike before. That frizzy white hair has changed to shiny and dark circles have disappeared.

I think there were people who liked the gap because it was enough to create a new character model.

Of course, there were times when I attacked to unlock achievements. Astiel Gran, who has grown up, has been transformed into a sister character, so it is definitely attractive.

‘I’m not young now.’

The student council room, which had been complicated as the event was slowly coming to an end, became a little quieter than before. I wanted to be at this time, so I spoke to Astiel.

“That president. So why did I tie you up?”

At my question, Astiel put down the pen he had just picked up and turned to me. And he replied as if waiting.

“Hmmmm, yes. I’ll need to explain. There were several reports, but there was a witness that Seo Ji-han started shooting first. Is that right?”

“Whatever the situation, you shot something like a bomb with people’s eyes focused on it? It blows up that human arm as well.”

“That’s why we tied it up with a bind. The customers who reported it will be nervous, so I want to show them that the current situation is over in front of them. Because I can’t.”

···Ummm. It sounds like the right thing to say, but it’s kind of embarrassing.

If so, what was it that made your lips twitch earlier? Was it your mood?

‘No, more than that.’

How does Astiel know my name? I don’t think there’s ever been a good case of people who remembered my name…

“·······Hmmm.”

“What, what? The reaction.”

“Then… what does that full-headed first-year mean?”

“Oh, that? That, that… is.”

Astiel’s voice, who had just been talking vigorously, began to diminish. Then the secretary, Chae Yu-ah, who was sitting next to him, asked with a bitter smile.

“Chairman. What you said earlier, did you swear to him and be true?”

“Ugh, why can’t you trust me until the clerk? What I swore to him and said earlier is true! Do you think I’m the only one who can’t tell you that? I did, even pinched it!”

Astiel explains it in a lengthy way, as if it was unfair. In the end, it was clear that he wanted to do that to me. I nodded.

“Yeah. I understand all of that, so why did you keep pretending you didn’t hear me?”

Astiel’s mouth, which had been slightly open until now, was completely shut. Chae Yu-ah still smiled bitterly and answered instead.

“It seems that you are still skeptical about what you said before.”

“······Me?”

what. It seems that Chae Yoo-ah knows me too. How are you getting anxious?

This is the first time I’ve seen Astiel Grand. If that’s the case, then, what I said before is definitely about ‘Seo Ji-han’ before me. I hope you’re talking nonsense again And to the most senior and student council president?

“What did I say?”

“Oh, don’t you remember? It’s been an empty year for the president…”

“······Five.”

It doesn’t sound like it’s wrong, but it looks like he’s spewing out his heart. Now I’m slowly getting scared Guess what kind of nonsense he threw at someone else again.

‘I’m curious as to why he said that.’

It would be a bit odd to ask. It is unnecessary for me to explain it as memory loss.

Astiel, who had listened to the conversation with her mouth shut, mumbled quietly.

“…you guys, can you all hear it?”

“Uh. So, was it sarcastic when the president called me a full-headed freshman earlier?”

The moment Astiel closed her mouth again, the student council room opened with a knock. Ellen Aiden opened the door and walked in.

Aiden glanced around the student council room, and when our eyes met, he stared at me with a smirk for some reason. And she soon hid the sign and she greeted Astiel with a smile.

“Hello, Chairman.”

“Ah, Aiden! You’re here. The impersonator is this person. He’s bound in a bind, so he’ll be incapacitated for another three hours.”

Astiel hurriedly pointed to Jack as Aiden, who had come just in time for the situation, was welcome.

‘…why did I stare?’

Aiden looked at Jack tied to the bind and pointed at me.

“I’ll take this person with me. I need someone to help me move. Jihan, don’t you have anything to do right now?”

“Huh? That’s right. Chairman, can I go for a walk?”

“…you can go. Help Aiden.”

When permission was granted, he stood up. Come to think of it, Aiden can’t even use magic right now. He is a guy who lacks more strength than me, so he had no choice but to help.

I approached Jack and grabbed him and lifted him up. I thought it would be incredibly heavy because I was lifting weights that were lacking in my body due to the bind, but it was lighter than I thought because I didn’t have a right arm.

Jack pushed it from behind to walk forward and took it to the door of the student council room. Aiden opened the door and she looked back before she left.

“President.”

“What, what? And why?”

Astiel looked at me with anxious, shaky eyes. Hmmm. I coughed and said.

“I’m going to pass on my anger at me, so I heard that the president was also in a goalless year. Let’s pretend it didn’t exist and settle each other.”

“Don’t say anything strange and come out.”

Aiden pushed me on the back and forcibly pushed me outside. As the door to the student council room closed, I could feel the vibration of the sound over there. Soundproofing performance is good.

Aiden clenched his teeth and murmured so that no one could hear him, avoiding people passing by the hallway with me.

“Ugh. Zue, did you take care of yourself earlier…?”

Were you glaring at me for not listening to you? I also had something to say.

“That’s why I called you right away. I’ve met Maiden Kess, so please report it.”

“I should have just avoided it. What do you believe in? I can’t even use magic because of the barrier right now.”

“Because there are heroes all around. If I wanted to be in danger, one of the heroes would come and help me.”

Regarding this part, Aiden sighed without refusing to be sure what I was saying was true. When Aiden stopped walking, I placed Jack in his place. It seems to be near the school office used by wizards temporarily.

“Uhhh… Anyway, it was hard. Professors will come and retrieve it later. This time, we need to clean up the guild called Maiden Cuss. After investigating for more, it seems that some people rushed out of the academy.”

“Yeah. I’ll leave that to you. And you should be careful about the people you captured last time.”

“Are you alive? ········Oh, why those people?”

“He tried to self-destruct earlier. He must have put a self-destruct trigger on the mana road.”

Aiden thought for a moment, then nodded.

“Okay. We’ll take action.”

“Okay. Oh, and thank you so much. I tried it, and it sure seems like it’s worth the money.”

Aiden smiled as I tapped my holster.

“What? It must have been harder to fight than that, but I’ll be protecting you, so go and rest.”

“Can I ask you just one question?”

“Have you ever heard of what happened with me and the student council?”

Aiden’s eyebrows furrow at my question.

“…I know a lot about Ji-Han, but I’m not interested in things that are that private.”

I also don’t know about this. I shook my head and said.

“I’m sorry. I just said it, so forget it. Then I’ll just leave.”

“Yes. Rest.”

I left Aiden behind and walked to the dorm. Most of the crowd in the meantime had disappeared. What remained so far were aspiring heroes who had not yet been scouted and were waiting for someone to come.

‘Have you contacted Seo-yeon Ryu?’

I checked my phone and there was no message yet. It seems that Ryu Seo-yeon is still talking about scouting.

‘That one.’

I stopped walking when I saw someone crouching on a bench in the distance. It was obvious that Oh Yun-ha was wearing blonde hair with the family seal engraved on it. She seemed to blame herself for losing to Noah Park.

Oh Yoon-seong is invisible. Maybe Oh Yun-ha asked me to be alone. You’d better go the other way. It’s not like I can go and comfort him.

I turned and looked at the empty branch of the Yoosung Academy. The sun is slowly setting. It was the last sign of winter.

‘Is it the first year of high school at Yoosung Academy from tomorrow?’

Game, ‘103rd Tower’.

Finally, this was the beginning of the story.
