Saved a Heroine From the Brink of Death

96. Each person’s plan

#96. Each person’s plan

Academy final exam 1st and 2nd practical exams.

In these two tests, Cynthia’s performance was so amazing that it left an impression on everyone.

As the next generation’s top prospect.

No, he wasn’t at the level of a prospect.

Skills that can already be considered professional.

It is said that he made a surprise attack when the association’s top-level hero was defenseless, but his attack was powerful enough to immediately inflict fatal damage.

And an appearance that is more than enough to be promoted as a star.

Cynthia has most of the qualities required to be a hero.

Yeah, most of them.

‘Cynthia’s abilities are outstanding, but… there are still some areas that have not been proven.’

Everyone in the industry who has seen Cynthia acknowledges her abilities.

It’s strong.

He could be said to be the greatest prospect of all time, and his skills are so outstanding that he could become a pro right away.

‘Cynthia has yet to prove her ability to clear the gate.’

Dealing with people is important, but the hero’s job is to attack the gate.

No matter how many villains there are, the greatest threat to humanity is ultimately the monsters sleeping within the gate.

In that respect, Cynthia had only proved half of her case.

Even though interpersonal combat power has been proven, gate-clearing ability has not yet been proven.

‘I wonder if the ability to attack the gate is also outstanding?’

It is not a place where individual strength is the only factor. There are countless things to consider outside of combat, such as split-second judgment, resource distribution, and physical strength management.

The fighting sense and the ability to improvise were proven, but I was curious about the rest of the items.

It wasn’t just one person’s idea.

All the guild scouts and high-ranking heroes who saw Cynthia had the same thought in their minds and hearts.

I wonder what kind of performance he will show in the third practical test.

They were curious to see what Cynthia would do.

***

“There are a lot of guys targeting Sia these days… This is dangerous.”

I thought it was a good idea to make a contract with Cynthia in advance. If I had lost Cynthia, whom I had worked so hard to raise, to someone else, I would not have been able to sleep for days.

No, is it only for a few days?

I would have been in pain every time I slept until the moment my contract with another place ended.

Anyway, I can’t forgive those who try to steal Sia. Whether their intentions were good or bad.

‘Guilds that have offered to join Sia… Let’s take a look at the list.’

There was no particular bad intention.

Even though I can’t forgive it, I can’t let my personal feelings get involved in this kind of thing.

‘I’m just buying guild stocks. Right… Korean guild stocks are good, right?’

These are stocks of large guilds that are considered blue chips. If you buy them in bulk, there may be some problems… But what if I spend my own money?

Anyway, in case Sia goes somewhere else, I’ll also do some preliminary work to make that guild mine.

I bought a lot of stocks in several guilds.

I’m going to spend some money for the first time in a while.

Cynthia, who had returned home after finishing the second round of final exams, was rolling around on her bed, mumbling.

“Hehehe~ Many guilds keep asking me to come in. It’s embarrassing~”

Cynthia looked at the scouts’ business cards with a happy expression, despite her troubled tone.

Guilds that could be called giant guilds, such as Ares, Shinwha, Cheongryong, and Yeonhwa, all gave her their business cards.

Although the ability to attack the gate has not been proven yet, we decided that it would be too late to hand over the contract after seeing that.

“Are these all guilds that want to make a contract with me? Hehe… .”

Just a few months ago, these were guilds that I couldn’t even dream of joining. But now, these guilds are pushing out some surprising contract terms and asking me to sign a contract with them.

This is with the exceptional condition that if there is a place where the original contract was made, they will pay the entire cost of breaking that contract.

-Why are you looking at me like that if you’re not going to go anyway?

“But it’s still nice to see.”

As Illien had said, Cynthia had no intention of signing with another guild.

It wasn’t because the conditions were lacking.

The conditions set by the giant guilds were so outrageous that they immediately caused Cynthia to become a troublemaker.

However, she already had a contract with someone.

The target wasn’t a guild, but the contract terms he offered were no less than those of large guilds… no, in some ways, even better than them.

-Han Seong-jin might be disappointed if he sees this?

“Ah. Ahh… .”

Cynthia, who came to her senses at Illien’s words, gathered up the scattered business cards and threw them all into the trash can.

It was a pity, but the importance was different.

-… You are really you.

“Then what am I?”

-That’s not what I meant… But anyway, aren’t you preparing to attack the gate?

“Ah… That? It won’t work anyway. That. Do you know what kind of gate will come out?”

-Still, I think there will be some parts that will be helpful if you study it thoroughly?

“I’m going to forget everything anyway….”

Cynthia had already figured out her intellectual abilities, including her memory.

Studying won’t help.

It would be more helpful to do something else during that time.

“Because of that relationship…! I decided to take a break for now. I decided that it would be better to take the test in the best condition after resting. That’s what I’m saying.”

-Yeah. Sia, you’ve been training hard these days.

“I feel a little embarrassed when you compliment me like that…?”

Illian suddenly gave me compliments and I lay down on the bed, giggling as if embarrassed.

-I don’t know if that level of training is enough to receive ‘Han Seong-jin’s Gift’~

“… … .”

Cynthia was left speechless by Illien’s sharp remark.

And then he took a deep breath.

“Haaah… Really.”

-Really what?

“… Just do it. Study.”

-What are you going to study?

“Just say you’re studying for the gate!”

Cynthia shouted, sat down at her desk, and opened her textbooks.

-You have to look at other things besides just textbooks. You don’t think that only the gates in the textbooks are chosen as test subjects? If you’re going to do it, you have to do it properly, right?

Cynthia nodded to Illie’s words and her enthusiasm burned. Since she had already decided to do it, she was going to do it with all her might. She was willing to take on anything to receive Han Seong-jin’s gift.

‘Originally… I was planning to get my condition back up to its peak by resting, but studying Gate wouldn’t be a bad idea either…! Since Illien will help you, you don’t have to worry about forgetting anything.’

It wasn’t about believing in yourself.

It was believing in Illien.

Yoon Hyuk-kwon barely managed to calm down his explosive anger.

I felt my clothes turn inside out at Grace’s boasting, but she was my comrade. Even though it was temporary, she was a comrade who I had to share life and death with, and she was an essential presence for the family’s cause.

When I thought about it that way, peace of mind came to me.

“How is the work going?”

“It’s going smoothly. By the way, I didn’t know that Yunga’s influence would be this great?”

Grace’s men entered the academy under Yoon Hyuk-kwon’s guarantee and began work on a raid under the pretext of ’emergency maintenance’ work.

“Just because you mentioned the family name, they’ll let you bring in a large number of people and magical machines without even checking them… That’s something you can’t even imagine in America.”

“Are you going to turn it around?”

“Is that a compliment? Yoon. You have a habit of listening to people too closely. You should fix that.”

“… My personality is something I can handle on my own. Anyway, this project absolutely cannot fail. I ask you again, is the plan perfect?”

“Ah. Of course it’s perfect. If this plan goes as planned… Cynthia will definitely die. The Academy will probably take some damage, but that doesn’t really matter. Right?”

“Yes. In any case, if we don’t want the fact that Yoonga was involved to be revealed to the world, we need to sort things out at the Academy as well.”

“Okay. Let’s get things sorted out. The work will be done by tomorrow. The plan will be implemented in two days… Do you know the time?”

Yoon Hyuk-kwon nodded.

“You know, Yun. This is something I need your help with. I don’t know about anything else, but you need to keep a few heroes. Without that, we can’t even get started.”

“I know.”

“In particular, we must hold on to the stock price. If he intervenes… everything will be in vain.”

“That may be possible, but… are you sure that Joo Hyun-oh is coming? We haven’t even received that information yet?”

“I’m sure. Joo Hyun-oh will definitely come. So we’re making plans to capture him. Since we come from the same prestigious family, we’ll be close, right?”

Yoon Hyuk-kwon is not close to Joo Hyeon-oh at all, but he nodded anyway. Regardless of whether they are close or not, the fact that he has to keep him will not change.

‘In two days. In two days, the foundation for Yunga to leap to the forefront of the Seven Great Families will be laid.’

Through this work, Yun Ga will become even greater.
