I Got the Academy Morale Rune

Chapter 138 – Investigation (2)

“Oh, how are you!”

The members of the hunting team 5 suddenly came.

Yoon Ji-ah, who was bruised for a moment watching them, soon regained her senses and greeted them.

I was her colleagues who had been with her until just two months ago, but as she was just attending her 〈 Injustice Judgment 〉 interview, they were her distant seniors.

“Nice to meet you! I am Yuna Shin.”

… Even Shin Yuna, who belongs to the rookie of that member.

While Park Jin-woo and Yoon Ji-ah exchanged greetings with the members of the hunting team 5, I talked to the team leader, Kwon Oh-joon, whom I hadn’t seen in a long time.

“You came earlier than expected?”

“Come early. I was 30 minutes late while checking the equipment.”

“Are you Yuna Shin again?”

“Tell me what are you doing? Ugh. He’s the one I personally picked as my successor, but he did well, very well.”

Even as he said that, Kwon Oh-jun’s face was secretly full of pride.

Shin Yuna’s growth was quite proud.

Yuna Shin is a new clan member of the hunting team 5, and when I first entered 〈 Judgment of 〉, I was the holder who conducted the sparring to check my skills.

He was the successor that Kwon Oh-joon ambitiously chose after being promoted to the A-rank holder and team leader level, and he was also a close-range prospect who showed that much potential.

Personally, she was a senior who helped me a lot in adapting to my intern life.

‘… I somehow let her go.’

Of course, that’s why she didn’t feel like she was getting closer to Yuna Shin.

Therefore, if she were to be the closest team member of the hunting team 5, it would be needless to say that she was Yuna Shin.

From what I’ve heard, she recently completed her promotion to B-Class Holder, proving her mettle.

Out of all the classmates who joined Class C, he is by far the fastest.

It was even more difficult to find the self-blaming and struggling appearance during the ‘Forest Covered by Snakes’ attack.

“Holder Sumi Lee, Holder Sungcheol Kim, Holder Dongwook Choi… Are all B-class personnel here?”

When I looked at the members of the team, all of them were ‘5 hunting teams, grade B’.

Familiar members who had been with me for two months gathered together.

Kwon Oh-joon nodded his head and replied.

“Well. This dispatch is something that the clan regards as rather important. It’s a kind of inspection and investigation, but the fact that the hunting team was dispatched is what the clan is interested in.”

“That’s right.”

A hunting team is literally a hunting team.

Fields outside the barriers, dungeons, and other special missions.

Most of the field work was focused on hunting monsters, and as such, it was quite unusual for a hunting team to be dispatched to such an external investigation.

“You said you rejected the proposal, lady?”

Kwon Oh-joon asked with a playful smile on his face.

“A suggestion? Which… “

“It’s an official offer to join the Judgment of Fire. Why are you refusing to join the No. 1 Clan that everyone else is eager to join?”

“Ah, that….”

I was about to answer right away, but when I saw his face, I suddenly wanted to play a joke and turned around.

“Ah, Judgment by Fire is not the number one clan. There is a royal, and there is also a dragon light sword. To be precise, the three largest clans.”

“What? This child… So, are you saying you’re going to try another clan?”

Haha. It’s a joke, a joke. I just delayed answering because it was still premature. I still don’t know what kind of clan I want to be in, and I still have more than two years left until I graduate from the academy.”

Just because you want to join 〈 Judgment of Fire 〉 right now doesn’t mean you’re going to be a member of the clan right away.

I’m still in the first year, and there are two years left until graduation.

If it was Kang Joo-yeon’s special recruitment, I could somehow drop out of the academy and join, but even if I went that far, it didn’t seem to help my career much.

“Oops. Then there is nothing you can do Lately, I’ve been interviewing new clan members, and it seems that there is no one like you, Do Jae-hyun.”

“I also had good breathing when I was in the 5th hunting team.”

“The horse is very.”

Kwon Oh-joon, who smiled once as he patted my shoulder, soon clapped his hands towards his teammates and circle members and said,

“Okay, let’s go as soon as everyone gets acquainted with their faces. It will take quite a while to go through the departure procedures.”

“Yes!”

“All right.”

As the [Warp Gate] Is located at the airport, the holder’s departure procedure is also conducted within the airport.

The process is similar to when boarding an airplane.

Inspection of belongings, passport and identification, customs declaration, etc…

Follow most of the regular procedures when going abroad.

However, unlike general belongings inspections that check terrorist items, the main purpose of the holder’s belongings inspection was to search for illegal items.

“Please present your holder registration card.”

If holders want to leave the country through the [Warp Gate], They must present their holder registration certificate.

Rune holders are mere special abilities from an individual point of view, but from a national point of view, they are a force that can become a human weapon.

Therefore, when moving domestically and internationally, holders are always watched by associations and governments.

Holder registration certificate for confirmation.

Originally, an “International holder registration certificate” Had to be issued, but since Korea was one of the world-recognized holder powerhouses, the domestic registration certificate itself was a proof of trust.

“All departure procedures have been completed. Holder Do Jae-hyeon has a reservation to use the international transfer warp gate to Tokyo at 11:00. Departures are on the 3rd floor, gate number is E-3. Thank you for using the Incheon International Airport Warp Gate service today.”

The airport staff handed over the ticket with a polite greeting.

I walked to the place written on the ticket.

Other team members quickly packed up and followed.

In fact, only the means of transportation was changed from an airplane to a [Warp gate], And this was no different from an ordinary overseas travel departure procedure.

When all the team members gathered, Kwon Oh-joon said the message.

“When you arrive at Tokyo’s Haneda Airport, you will immediately move to Nagoya through the domestic warp gate.”

“Are you Nagoya?”

“Well. To be precise, use the warp gate in the direction of Rokubancho, Nagoya City. We’ll leave right away with no waiting time, so we can assemble as soon as we arrive.”

This investigation will be conducted in collaboration with Judgment of 〈 Dollar 〉, but anyway, the area we want to investigate is the trade route under the jurisdiction of Judgment of 〈 Dollar 〉.

It is not a place where we can go just because we want to go.

Therefore, until arriving at the destination, it was standard practice to follow the command of Kwon Oh-jun and the 5 hunting teams.

“All right.”

“OK. Then, let’s all finish personal maintenance and see you in Japan.”

So we headed to Japan.

As for me, after coming to this world.

It was the first time I set foot in a foreign country.

* * *

“Oooooh, that’s disgusting.”

“Wow… The international movement warp gate is really tough.”

After arriving in Tokyo and crossing straight to Nagoya with no time to rest.

We took a short break in front of the gate.

The international movement of [Warp Gate] Was on a different level from domestic movement.

An overwhelming amount of mana was consumed just by moving, and the twisted mana hit the body and caused extreme motion sickness.

The whole body is nauseous and stuffy.

My stomach was rumbling to the point where it was incomparable to car sickness or seasickness.

“Are you all right?”

After catching my breath for a while, I saw Juyeon Kang with a calm expression and asked.

“… Little.”

She looked a bit tired, but her expression didn’t change much.

Also Jooyeon Kang.

It’s an amazing poker face.

It wasn’t that anyone was paying attention, but he was doing his best to control himself.

To think that she, who is sincere in controlling her emotions like this, was so angry the other day…

It was something I didn’t even know.

After taking a break for about 10 minutes like that.

Our team left the space inside the [Warp gate] And headed outside.

The [Warp Gate] Is located at Rokubancho Station.

It was a subway station in the lower area of ​​Nagoya City.

While leaving the station, I looked around the inside of the station and asked Kwon Oh-jun.

“Something feels very shabby?”

“It must be because it is a subway station. If you go further down towards the pier, you will find a downtown area.”

There weren’t many people at Rokubancho Station, and it gave me a dreary mood.

When I came out of the station, that feeling was stronger.

Old buildings and shops lined up everywhere.

It felt like I was in a small town in Seoul, not Japan.

“He came to meet you.”

Gwon Oh-joon, who had been looking around for a while outside the station, said.

He turned his head in the direction he pointed…

A man was out to meet us.

Shaggy cut hairstyle, dyed brown or gold.

Somehow familiar…

It was a typical Japanese statue.

-Injustice Clan, Anti-Villain Circle. Welcome to Nagoya!

And in his hand was this signpost.

‘No, don’t you usually get something like that at the airport?’

It was absurd to see him holding that thing by himself outside a subway station with few people around.

He came to us with a wry smile on his face.

“Long time no see. Kwon Oh-jun!”

“Nice to meet you. Mr Shimizu. It seems like we haven’t seen each other in almost 6 months. I wish you well today.”

“Please leave it to me.”

Fluent Korean flowed from him.

Are you a Korean-Japanese?

It was such a precise and clear pronunciation that I thought so.

The man called Shimizu also shook my hand.

“Nice to meet you. My name is Kenzo Shimizu, senior clan member of the 〈 man’s condition 〉 clan. I have heard a lot about Mr. Do Jae-hyun.”

“Nice to meet you. I’m Do Jae-hyun from the Seoul Holder Academy… “

I was about to greet him casually, but he paused for a moment and asked again.

“The name… How are you?”

“I am Kenzo Shimizu. In short… “

“No, no. I don’t think it’s necessary to shorten it.”

I feel like I’ve been told something more shouldn’t be heard.

I quickly changed the subject of conversation and moved on to work.

“I heard about the story from Team Leader Kwon. You want me to inspect the inside of the Clan Tower myself?”

Shimizu nodded his head at my words.

“That’s right. Our Man’s Condition Clan and the Korean Injustice Clan have been trading cooperatively for 5 years, and regularly conduct transparent inspections on trade items and transaction processes. Same goes for today. The two of you can unlock as many Clan Towers as you like. How, would you like to go right away?”

I asked Kwon Oh-jun about his intentions with my eyes.

But he responded by giving me a short signal with his chin.

I know this signal well because I worked with him for two months.

It meant doing what I thought.

At that, I nodded and looked at Shimizu.

“Let me guide you right away.”

“All right.”
