chapter 13
After returning home from all conversations with Jinwoo, checking the status window and weapons, and preparing for tomorrow’s event.
A knock was heard from outside the door, as well as a knocking sound.
“Eugene, can I come in?”
father’s voice.
I couldn’t understand why my father had come at this time, but it wasn’t like a middle school student in puberty.
“Yeah, that’s fine.”
He settled his bewildered mind at the sudden occurrence of his father’s visit, answered his father, and sat on the bed with a neat appearance.
“okay. Then don’t go in.”
Father with a cigar in his mouth and a black overcoat and fedora on the outside entered the room.
Judging by his father’s outfit, he seemed to be going out somewhere soon.
“Where are you going?”
“okay. I heard the information that the remnants of Blunty had found a hiding place.”
His father shrugged his shoulders, and his father sat down on a chair across from the bed.
Foreign areas are places where the government’s influence is virtually out of reach due to past events.
Therefore, security here was maintained by the Kalinone family in reality.
“You must be busy.”
“Is there anything special? Foreign areas are out of reach of the government. So, even this father should work hard.”

My father smiled and stroked my hair.
Hard, rough hands felt over his head were not so unpleasant.
“Oh yeah. Did you meet Ai, the successor of the Vibalt family today? I’ve heard at first glance that Antonio’s son is going to the academy, but it looks like he’s in the same class as you.”
After all, the report went up to my father right away. Naturally, he removed his father’s hand and nodded his head in a dignified manner.
“Yes, it happened. I also played a match today.”

My father’s eyes widened when he heard my words.
“Huh, okay? What was the result?”
“… … The match was over in less than 3 seconds after pulling the trigger. It was so refreshing that Instructor Ji Soo-hyun said that he would like to see him fight without a unique weapon next time.”
“ha ha ha! Ji-Hyun Ji. That’s the kid.”
Just when the story about Instructor Ji Soo-hyun came out, I decided to ask my father what he thought at the academy.
“I… … father. May I ask what kind of relationship you have with Instructor Ji Soo-hyun? Instructor Ji Soo-hyun called my father uncle.”
“yes? you mean that kid? Well… … If you ask me what the relationship is, I bumped into him several times before he started teaching at the academy. It’s only a little bit related to that.”
“ah… … .”
Did you bump into your father while on active duty?
I knew through the game that Ji Soo-hyun had cleared up many criminals through heroic activities in the past, but I never imagined that he would have bumped into his father as well.
“by the way. Antonio’s son stretched out in 3 seconds, looks like he got some good stuff? Eugene.”
Father who said so with a kind smile.
Perhaps it was from Parnello that my father also knew information about my own weapon.
“Yes, I was lucky.”
“Lucky, getting what you want is also a skill. You can be proud.”
relics. [Al Capone’s Tommy] can be called the Holy Grail of the Mafia.
I got such a thing as my son, so I understand why he likes it so much.
Well, to my father, [Tommy of Al Capone] would look like a toy, so it’s a possible reaction.
“By the way, Dad, what’s going on in my room… … ?”
“Ah, that’s right. I have something to give you.”
Having said that, my father pulled something out of his pocket and handed it to me.
“Didn’t you completely organize the Blunty family? If you have successfully completed the mission, you should be rewarded accordingly.”
With that said, what my father took out was an ordinary-looking, colorful cube.
“… … This?”
“You can’t carry that heavy gun every day, can you? So, I prepared a subspace artifact. Do you like it?”
Subspace artifacts.
I thought it was a design I saw a lot, but it was one of the inventory items I saw in the game.
“They said that each square of the cube is about 10cm2, so a total of 5.4m2 of space can be used.”
A cube passed from my father’s hand to me. As soon as the cube reaches your hand, information about how to use it enters your mind.
An inventory of 54 spaces that floats in front of you.
As a test, I picked up a pillow that was next to me and put it in my inventory, and the pillow occupied 8 spaces in my inventory and went inside.
“How are you?”
Father looking at me with a smile as if wondering about my reaction.
“Yeah, really… … I really like it.”
“haha! right? I heard that the size is adjustable, so I usually wear it around my neck.”
Saying that, my father handed me a necklace that looked like a set with the cube.
As you can see, the cube is reduced in size and hung on the end of the necklace.
“I will write thank you.”
“Yeah, it makes me feel good because you seem to like it.”
Woo woo woo. and the smartphone vibrates. It seems that the information on the item has arrived.
“yes? Did you even contact your friend?”
“Yes, I think so.”
And the vibrating sound again.
The source of this vibration was not my smartphone, but my father’s pocket.
“… … It seems like I got a call too, so I guess I’ll have to leave.”
Saying that, the father walks towards the door.
“Have a safe trip.”
“Yes, thank you.”
So after my father left the room. I took out my flipped smartphone and checked the newly arrived alarm.
[You have acquired a new item!]
[Name: Four Dimensional Cube]
[Class: Artifact]
[Type: Item]
[Description: Artifact Workshop. This is a subspace artifact created by the craftsman of ‘Cube’. A cube consisting of a total of 56 compartments has a space of 10cm2 each, and objects can be placed in a subspace of a total of 5.6m2.
An option to adjust the size of the cube for your convenience has been added.]
“… … After all, it was something from the Cube Workshop.”
Cube was the name of a studio that produced a luxury brand that appeared several times in the game.
Would you say it’s like a luxury brand?
If it was a cube workshop, the price would be quite high, but even subspace artifacts were said to be difficult to obtain no matter how much money they had, so I couldn’t even imagine how much it would cost.
Well, it wouldn’t have been a huge expense if it was the price of my father’s name and Callione’s wealth.
As a result, it was almost as if I had obtained something I needed very much.
So, as I was organizing my inventory by putting ‘Tommy of Al Capone’ and miscellaneous items into the cube my father gave me, I heard another knock outside the door.
“This is Seo-Jun Han. May I come in?”
It seems that Han Seo-joon, who had called before his father came to the room, was waiting for his father to leave.
“yes. come in.”
After tidying up the cube and speaking out, Han Seo-joon carefully opens the door and enters the room.
As soon as I saw his face, I immediately told him why I called him here.
“Han Seo-joon. We need the power of the secretariat.”
“… … You mean the secretariat?”
“Yeah, Kim Se-ah and Kim Young-jae in the same class as me. And Jisoo. Even using the power of the secretary’s office, gather the information of the three people and report it. The deadline is… … Until tomorrow morning. Is it possible?”
“that… … If you use the secretariat arbitrarily, you will lose money——.”
“I am the heir who is taking the succession class of the Callione family. Do you have the right to use the secretariat?”
“… … I will report you by tomorrow.”
“Yes, please.”
Han Seo-joon bowed his head at my words and went out immediately.
He was originally a member of the National Intelligence Service and was an insider planted inside Callione.
Originally, it would be right to tell his father about his identity and let him handle it separately… … Rather than that, I decided that it would be much more beneficial to keep him by my side and watch him slowly tame him with my limbs.
He was also a key card that would later take the life of the National Intelligence Service.
Of course, that will be in the distant future.

“Boss, are you here?”
When I went to the Hero Academy, Jinwoo, who had come first, greeted me with a waving hand.
“… … Can’t you just say hello quietly?”
“yes? why?”
Why?
With a little concentration, you could hear the murmurs around you.
‘That bastard called Eugene the boss right now, right?’
‘Did you lose yesterday in Dalian and become a subordinate?’
There was some bad conversation going on.
“I wish you would refrain from calling me the boss in a loud voice.”
“okay? Well, it’s about lowering your voice… … So, are you ready to recruit club members?”
Hearing Jinwoo’s words, I remembered what happened this morning.
The person book of Kim Se-ah and Kim Young-je, which was newly updated at the same time as receiving the information from the secretary’s office.
The character encyclopedia that accepts external information was a very helpful ability in a situation like the present one.
“Of course.”
“okay? then you’re happy Then, what about the advisor?”
“yes?”
“It’s a club advisor. Instructor who will keep the club calm. Maybe you were trying to form a club among the students?”
“If it’s an advisor, why don’t you ask Instructor Ji Soo-hyun?”
“Hey, would that woman torture you for being crazy?”
Jin-Woo waved his hand as if it didn’t make sense to my answer and said so.
“Even though I’ve only seen it for two days, the instructor I’ve seen Ji Soo-hyun isn’t the kind of person who can do that.”
“okay?”
In general, you might think so.
Actually, I thought of all the ways to persuade Instructor Ji-Hyun, but… … I don’t think it’s necessary to elaborate here now.
“First of all, there is a morning inquiry, so let’s do it at lunch. Regarding Instructor Ji-Hyun Ji… … I don’t know.”
“… … okay? If the boss says that, I won’t stop him, but… … . Oh, can I help you?”
“You just have to be still.”
“okay? It’s honey.”
The guy who answered that and went back to his seat. Finally left alone in my seat, I turned on my smartphone and looked through the person book.

“Well, the class is definitely small, so it’s easy to count. Now, shall we begin the third day of the academy?”
Something. something is worrisome
