I Became the Leader of Academy City

Chapter 67

67 – Discipline 24. The Leading Manager Follows Through to the End (4)

A+.

It was the grade given to Oh Baek-seo.

Children born in factories were graded based on their innate magical power.

Children who received an A+ grade were classified separately and transported to a facility in Zone Zero, an off-limits area.

The same was true with the white paper.

In the Zero Zone facility, White Paper was captured by a mechanical device and forced to repeat special training methods.

As you will find out later, training to blossom your talents. It was a deteriorated version of the magic power training method, which improved the quality of magic power in an indirect way.

Mechanical devices exert magical energy on children every day.

Each and every thorny rough magic molecule wrapped around the white paper without stopping.

The white paper screamed every time, but no one helped.

It was because children had no freedom.

Neo Seoul’s headmaster, Lee Doo-hee, knew that the best talent would be born only if he practiced magical power exercises from an early age.

She said, it was ‘Golden Time’.

When a child learns the magic magic exercises on his or her own during her golden time.

She was able to achieve tremendous growth that could not be compared to anyone else.

It was the so-called secret of the new human race.

The process even boasts the highest efficiency and stability.

However, it was impossible to teach efficient magic exercises to a child who could not speak.

There was only one person who instinctively learned the magic exercises during the golden time.

Only Goliath, a rare genius in human history and a man who is presumed to reach the Argonauts at an early age.

So, the method devised by Principal Lee Doo-hee is to achieve a similar effect to the magical power practice.

It was a method of forcibly enveloping children with dense magical power and allowing it to seep into their bodies.

Considering the survival rate, the target children were children with at least A+ level of natural magical power.

It was no different from torture.

In order to achieve even the slightest level of utility, a strong stimulus had to be provided.

In the process, the magic circuit was destroyed and many children whose blood flowed backwards were discarded.

From noble mtl dot come

For Principal Lee Doo-hee, it was a problem that had no more psychological impact than drinking plain water.

Creating one good talent was overwhelmingly more efficient than raising all the remaining A+ children.

For her, it was something she could just dismiss as her opportunity cost.

The white paper survived the golden time.

However, what the principal wanted was Goliath level.

The white paper did not even reach his toes, but it met half of the standards set by the headmaster. So it was called a semi-successful work.

There was no longer any need for compulsory training.

However, White Paper’s head was already broken.

In the middle of the facility, I spent my time banging identical toys against each other, suffering from aphasia. Wrapped up in bandages, looking down at the floor with two lifeless eyes.

Then I met Kim Dal-bi.

When White Paper heard her Dalby’s voice, she would look at the child.

When his eyes suddenly met, Dalbi smiled.

Feeling awkward, Baek Seo avoided her eyes.

Every time, Dalbi’s smile saw into Baek Seo’s heart

‘Hello!’

One day, Dalbi smiled charmingly and greeted Baek Seo.

All the other children who stayed with them were discarded.

‘We’re spherical, right?’

Perhaps because they went through the same process and survived, the two children quickly became close friends.

Dalbi hugged Baek Seo from time to time.

The warmth restored life to White Paper’s eyes.

The principal allowed Baek Seo and Dal-bi, who were semi-successful, to play like ordinary children. Just like any other successful kids in the class.

Baekseo and Dalby left the prison-like facility for the first time and saw a small but beautiful flower garden.

Near the devastated Zero Zone.

An unknown place that was always visible outside the window.

The sight of the blue sky and flower fields for the first time made the two children excited.

That day, Dalbi picked up a purple peony flower and said,

I saw in a book that the language of this flower is ‘anger.’

Telling her to praise her her her her knowledge her, Dalbi vigorously placed both hands on her waist her her.

The reason that image remained particularly clear in Baek Seo’s memory was because there was something he realized only then.

As if the gears that were trying to fit together were misaligned, something had been going wrong since she was born.

Being born couldn’t have been this painful.

There are so many beautiful things in the world.

‘Ah.’

White Paper finally realized what the unknown emotion that had been building up inside her was.

Soon, the white paper picked up a purple peony flower.

Shoot.

The sound of rain drove away memories of the past.

Currently.

A dark alley.

“Honestly, you’re so annoying…”

Dalbi’s voice was soaked in blood and soaked in the sound of rain.

Despite the aggressive remarks, the white paper remained calm.

“Me too.” They are similar.”

“Lol… , We really don’t have affection for each other…”

Dalbi stared at the white paper.

The kind face that exchanged affectionate glances with her Woojin appears overlapping.

In the past and now, the white paper shined infinitely in Dalbi’s eyes

Suddenly, the sense of discomfort I felt every time I looked at the white paper became clear.

One after another, new questions swirled through Dalbi’s mind.

‘It did…’ ‘ .’

Is it really necessary to be the one who protects Ahn Woo-jin?

There is someone like this who is by Woojin’s side, likes him, is strong, and shines.

The reason why Baek Seo is taking such bold steps is obviously to protect Woojin’s daily life

‘I don’t know what this is like… ‘ .’

To that, how compared are you?

As Moon Chae-yeon said, Dal-bi only established himself as an obstacle to Woo-jin.

She has become nothing more than a woman stuck in the past, stuck like mud.

The corners of Dalbi’s mouth are slightly turned up.

Her intelligent eyes and sly smile met the cruel face of the white paper.

It was because my thoughts were organized.

“Why did you come here… ? No, let me guess. This time, I came to deal with the leader’s friend… ?”

If he gets to the zero zone, then of course he plans to deal with Moon Chae-yeon.

The white paper did not deny it.

“You mean, you got the timing all wrong… ? It would be better to do nothing today… ?”

You have to leave here now.

“I know what a rag you are when I see it. There must be several principals.”

The white paper said:

Zone Zero has almost no means of supervision by the headmaster.

This was the reason why Baekseo and Dalbi could talk without hesitation.

“It looks like you rebelled against the headmaster and got beaten like a dog.”

“Well, that’s too much to express…” ” ” . There is something else to compare to people…”

Dalby laughed, “Hehe.”

“I have to ask you something.”

The white paper said firmly.

“What… ?”

“Why did you leave me? “You haven’t heard anything yet.”

“Ah.”

Dalby thought for a moment and then laughed.

“You’re talking about that time, right? I told you to decide which of us would leave here…”

The white paper nodded.

When I was young, Spartoy, who was the headmaster’s subordinate, made a suggestion to Baekseo and Dalby.

─ ‘One of you should be my dog. Instead, I’ll send the other one outside.’

I left that decision to the two children.

They said they would give the choice to the one who comes first and says they will leave first.

Baek Seo and Dalbi promised not to betray each other.

But after the white paper woke up.

─ ‘Kim Dal-bi chose first. She left at dawn.’

After hearing those words from the AI robot, White Paper’s mind turned as white as a sheet of paper.

White Paper checked Dalby’s room, which was empty. Soon, the eyes became quiet.

It was a memory that White Paper could never forget.

“I told you last time… Even if I said it, it would be meaningless.”

“It’s important to me.”

Baek Seo couldn’t shake off the words that Dal-bi had left her.

She didn’t blame Dalbi for that.

Because everything was because of the principal.

I just kept repeating the question ‘Why?’ In my head.

Baek Seo wanted to know why Dalbi left without saying a word first.

“… I’ll ask again. “Did you want to get away from here by abandoning me?”

“… ?”

As time passed, doubt appeared in Dalbi’s eyes

“What are you talking about… ? “I’m out of here?”

“What?”

“I was the one who decided to become a dog… ?”

Feeling of disparity.

A sense of incongruity permeated the air and flowed mysteriously between the two. We both felt that the conversation had gone awry.

When she was young, Dalby remembered what she said when she secretly visited her principal at dawn.

─ ‘Neither of us will follow the principal’s words. ‘I know you’re planning on holding us back anyway.’

─ ‘Okay… You’re intelligent. Then, what do you want?’

─ ‘Please make the white paper free.’

Dalbi bowed.

─ ‘Please.’

After the headmaster didn’t say anything for a while, Dalby raised her head.

The principal was smiling.

As if I had seen a comical scene.

It was a very unpleasant and grotesque laugh, with each wrinkle folding deeply.

In the early morning, the headmaster’s subordinate left, taking Dalbi with him.

Dalby and Baekseo grew apart without even saying goodbye.

“… ?”

Dalby’s expression of not knowing what she was talking about made her white paper also have her own doubts.

With her trained ability, Baek Seo naturally read Dalbi’s subtle changes in facial expressions. There was no unconscious change in facial expression of the person telling the lie.

Eventually, an alarm bell rang in Baek Seo’s head.

It was the sound of enlightenment.

The vague questions she might have vaguely guessed were answered.

“Ha…”

A deep breathing sound, like a sigh, escaped from between White Paper’s lips.

Dalby tilted her head and was still looking at the white paper with her questioning eyes. She didn’t seem to know that White Paper worked as a hunting dog.

I guess.

‘It was a rift.’

The principal wanted a child who would listen well.

Therefore, through a simple yet cowardly act of alienation, he turned the two children into his dogs.

The headmaster had no intention of giving up on either Baekseo or Dalby. Each person was a precious experiment and a semi-successful product.

There was no way the two young children could have known that fact.

The thinking in the white paper has been organized.

As for the remaining questions.

In the past, her feelings of loss at the thought that Dal-bi had abandoned her were resolved.

Suuk!

The blade of Baekryundo was pulled out from Dalbi’s thigh

“Off… !”

Dalby tried hard to hold back her screams.

Immediately, White Paper attached the medical magic tool to Dalbi’s thigh her her. The punctured area was blocked and compressed, and the bleeding stopped.

It was for emergency treatment purposes.

“Suddenly what… ” ?”

“I heard that you abandoned me.”

“What… ?”

At this point, even Dalby could not have known.

I definitely thought that White Paper was living freely.

In fact, the parties involved perceived it differently.

“It was strange. Even after you left my side, you became a terrorist. So I had to get confirmation from you directly…”

When the white paper spoke.

The air suddenly became heavy, and a heavy wave of magic passed through Baekseo and Dalbi’s skin.

“!”

The two people’s eyes were wide open.

Charalak!!

Suddenly, the area between the building’s rooftops froze, creating an arch-shaped ice screen that blocked the night sky.

A beautiful and large snow crystal shape drifted into the magic ice block.

At the same time, the road leading to the other side of the alley was frozen solid, blocking the path.

Baekseo and Dalby looked upward at the same time and guessed the situation.

For some reason, someone I shouldn’t have met has appeared here.

Ttogak ttogak.

The sound of shoe heels can be clearly heard.

Baekseo and Dalbi turned their heads in the same direction.

A silver-haired male student wearing a white uniform was approaching, with a faint chill flowing like a melody.

A chilling sensation enveloped Baekseo and Dalbi.

The man’s cold eyes seemed to freeze everything.

“Why… ? I’m sure I missed it because of work… ?”

Dalby looked at the pure white man with an expression of disbelief.

The man who brought Dalby into submission in return for confronting the principal.

I thought he had left the work to the six criminals, Hong-gyu, but he showed up unexpectedly.

“…”

The white paper held onto the tension and calmly prepared itself for battle.

There was no way he had his actions discovered.

In other words.

“You knew I would come here…”

It was clear that the headmaster already knew that the White Paper would move.

The reason why the six-sinner Han Seo-jin monitored Baek Seo.

The aftermath that will come if you try to bring in Ahn Woo-jin through Moon Chae-yeon.

Who will White Paper target first in the dark?

The headmaster knew everything and laid a trap.

“It’s been a while, Oh Baek-seo.”

A person said to be the second strongest in Neo Seoul after Goliath.

The strongest among the headmaster’s subordinates.

Spartoy of the 7th rank.

A chill flowed from between the lips of the white man, Seo Kang-jin.

The situation in which he came here after sending Dalbi away was extremely unnatural.

White Paper was also paying closer attention than anyone else to the trends of earthquakes, which were no different from land mines.

The fact that Kang Jin appeared here could only be seen as a ploy by the headmaster.

It was too hasty.

I moved too hastily.

However, the white paper did not reveal any embarrassment.

It was just a matter of refining the magic power within his body.

“… Hello.”

The white paper raised his magic power.

Even though it is clear what kind of future lies ahead.

Meanwhile, Ahn Woo-jin was running around, repeating her spatial leaps.

She searched all over the place where Baekseo could be found, including Aseonggo, but her whereabouts were nowhere to be found.

The past of running frantically to find Kim Dal-bi continued to fill Woojin’s mind.

The helplessness at that time took hold of Woojin’s mind and made him rush his steps like crazy.

Even though Woojin was out of breath and suffering from a penalty, she went around without a chance to make contact with Geumyang. Not even pain could stop his steps

Before we knew it, the rain clouds were moving away and the sun was starting to rise over the horizon. Dusky sunlight fell on the gray city.

Zero zone.

Above the wreckage of several buildings.

“Big… Omg…”

White Paper had frostbite all over her body and was covered in blood.

Baekseo lifted her heavy eyelids with difficulty and looked at Gangjin with narrowed eyes.

I couldn’t clearly discern anything with my blurred vision.

Dalbi had already knocked her out.

When Dal-bi showed signs of trying to help Baek-seo, he made her lose her mind beforehand.

“The principal was also wary of Mr. Baek Seo. I knew that one day he would aim for my neck.”

A female student dressed as a nun, Spartoy, spoke as she held up Dalbi who had fainted.

“But… It was too hasty, Mr. Baek Seo. “There’s no way the principal was only targeting Mr. Woojin, right?”

“…”

“Mr. Kang Jin. I think we should keep Mr. Dalby locked up until he calms down. “I’m going to take Dalbi with me.”

Kangjin didn’t reply at all.

Ye-seo greeted with a light nod and left with Dal-bi.

Kang Jin quietly watched Baek Seo who was defeated by him. The white paper tried to move his body his his somehow. However, her already devastated body did not follow her.

From noble mtl dot come

Soon, the life in White Paper’s eyes disappeared.

Her consciousness blacked out.

Jureuk.

Her cool blood flowed down Kang Jin’s cheek her.

It was a cut from a white paper.

As she wiped her cheek with her white gloved hand, red blood sawed onto her glove.

Kang Jin took off her gloves and threw them at Baek Seo, then turned around and walked away.

In the direction Gangjin was heading towards, Moon Chae-yeon was standing still and looking blankly at the white paper.

“I heard the principal gave me instructions?”

Chaeyeon asked Kangjin.

“Take away the Unsa’s abilities. Right away, starting today.”
