chapter 36
36 – Rumor(2)
As Baek Ha-na climbed on top of Kang Seok-ho and stabbed her fists incessantly, Idni, who was watching from a distance, said in fright.
“Uh, Lee Na-young was good at letting him sleep.”
“Yeah… … . Certainly, if Nayoung saw it, she wouldn’t have been able to talk to Hana for a while.”
Maria agreed with Idney’s words, and their eyes naturally turned to Nam Seo-hee, who was holding an envelope full of chocolates.
On the outside, he had a calm expression that was no different from usual, but the trembling legs below showed what Nam Seo-hee’s current condition was.
Seeing that, Edney sighed briefly and said,
“You are funny too. If that’s the case, why don’t you just run into them?”
“… … .”
Nam Seo-hee’s eyes, which were heading toward the training ground, moved quickly and then turned to Idney.
“What, what is it? Did I say anything wrong?”
Seeing Nam Seo-hee staring at her like a ghost from a horror movie she saw when she was young, Edney forgot her position as an apprentice paladin and hugged her best friend Seo-hee and glared at Nam Seo-hee.
“I know we’re on good terms, but could you please restrain yourself here?”
“Hey!! Look at those eyes!! Even looking at that, can you say that we’re good friends?!”
Idni was furious, but Maria shrugged her shoulders and replied.
“If Seo-hee really hated it, I wouldn’t have reacted. He treats you like that because he thinks of you as a friend.”
“… … No, why are you reacting so brutally?”
“If you understand, can you let me go? Also, Seo-hee, keep your eyes open.”
Maria removed the sticking Idni, and Nam Seo-hee also stopped staring at the Idni. However, the trembling of both legs was still the same.
“It is over.”
“The end is over soon.”
Maria and Idni got up from their seats watching the overseer go up to the arena.
“Hey, Nam Seo-hee. stop freaking out and wake up If Hana was really angry, she wouldn’t even eat the chocolate you gave me earlier.”
tall-
Nam Seo-hee’s trembling legs stopped.
Then, he asks Maria, not Idni.
“Is that so?”
“That’s it. If Hana was really mad in the first place, would she have brought you here?”
“… … I see.”
Nam Seo-hee, whose expression did not change, but the overall atmosphere became lighter, stood up from her seat.
“I said no, but why are you asking Maria?”
“Yes Yes. I understand, so stop going down.”
“Want to see that bitch clearing her ears?!”
“Yes, yes. I understand, so be quiet. Is it inconvenient?”
Caught in the gap between Idni and Nam Seo-hee, Maria sighed lightly and looked around.
It was close to dinner time, and tomorrow was the last day to register for classes, so it was quiet enough that there were almost no people compared to a few days ago.
However, being quiet means that there are people who are keeping their seats. And some of them watched the match between Baek Ha-na and Kang Seok-ho, which had just been decided, and hurriedly showed their hands using their smart phones and smart watches.
‘Fortunately, there don’t seem to be any kids taking pictures.’
Maria, who had been instructed by Claire to make sure that one hundred and one possible names did not come up in the mouth of the community or other students, was not very happy with the situation itself.
Even in the top 10 guilds, he is an iron knight who confidently ranks at the top when evaluated based on pure strength alone.
And it was Kang Seok-ho, the youngest son of the iron knight’s guild master, Kang Min-ho, who had just been hit in the face while being mounted on the floor without having been able to properly resist Baek Ha-na.

Right now, the freshman year is in a situation where no proper indicators have been released, so if people who didn’t know saw it, they could just think that they hadn’t met the other person because they were unlucky.
They will write what they saw here and inform the community or other acquaintances… … .
‘It’s not to the point where I need to worry right now.’
As long as people gather, factions will inevitably arise and conflicts will arise. I don’t know if there was a video. If it is simply written as it is now, people will accept it as a slander to discredit the image.
Just because they’re in the 10th guild doesn’t mean they’re all good friends.
Moreover, the rankings change every year and the lower ranks, the more new guilds are named, the more those at the top want to bring them down.
“You guys go out with one first.”
“yes? Why. What’s wrong?”
When Maria turned, Idni turned her head and asked.
“I’m going to look over there and go.”
“Why? what. take care of it.”
Idni approached Baek Ha-na with Nam Seo-hee.
Maria waved her hand lightly at Baek Ha-na, who glanced at her, and Baek Ha-na waved her hand slightly at her, accepting the greeting, even with a stiff face.
So the three quietly left the arena.
Alone, Maria approached Kang Han-na, who was coming down carrying Seok-ho Kang, who had fainted, on her shoulder like a bag of rice.
“If you don’t mind, can I help you?”
“It’s not enough to borrow divine power… If you help me.”
Kang Han-na had to proceed with the next skirmish, so Kang Han-na turned her back again, putting down the troublesome baggage in front of Maria.
“Then let me ask you a favor.”
“Yes. I’ll wake you up and send you back.”
When Kang Han-na returned to the designated area, Maria crouched down and looked at Kang Seok-ho’s condition.
“There doesn’t seem to be much to be done other than the nosebleed.”
There was some swelling under both cheekbones, but it was a cute bruise for being unconscious.
In response, Maria wrapped her divine power in her hand and lightly slapped Kang Seok-ho on the cheek several times.
match! match!
Kang Seok-ho’s swollen right cheek gradually subsided with a heavy sound.
“Uh, uh… … .”
match! Damn!!
“Eww… !!”
jjaa-
“stop!! I came to my senses, but why do you keep hitting me?!”
“oh. sorry.”
Looking at Kang Seok-ho, who raised his upper body with his eyes wide open, Maria smiled and stood up from her seat.
“… … The method seems a bit extreme, but… Thank you for treating me.”
“What. These are the basic qualifications of a priest.”
Maria gently put her hand on Kang Seok-ho’s shoulder as he tried to get up while stroking his cheek.
“Shall we talk for a minute?”
“… … ?”
If the person involved in the story admits everything, there’s nothing more annoying than that.
**
“… I’m home.”
Baek Ha-na, who had parted ways with her friends, opened the door of the mansion and came in. Then, he scanned the floor where the shoes were placed.
A pair of black shoes entered Baek Ha-na’s clear eyes.
Sigh—
Then he took off his shoes and changed into slippers, looking at the hanger.
As expected, there was only one black coat worn by Baek Woo-jin.
The corners of Baek Ha-na’s mouth drew a long arc.
“Woojin~”
Baek Ha-na’s voice, which had been sluggish, regained its vitality in an instant.
hee hee hee hee
Humming a song, Baek Ha-na slowly headed toward the study where Baek Woo-jin was staying. Then, carefully pushing the closed door, I poked my head through the gap.
square square.
Along with the soothing smell, Baek Woo-jin could hear the fan screeching.
The person who sits in front of the desk in the study with his back to the setting sun and writes down something today.
“… Can I come in?”
widely.
Woojin Baek let go of the fan he was holding and raised his head.
“Come here.”
“yes? uh, yes.”
When Baek Woo-jin beckoned, Baek Ha-na hesitated a little, closed the door, and approached Baek Woo-jin.
“hand.”
“hand… … ?”
Baek Ha-na tilted her head at Baek Woo-jin’s sudden request for his hand, but spread both palms wide and showed them to him.
“The back of your hand.”
“here… … ah.”
Baek Ha-na, who had turned her palm upside down, looked at the back of her hand for a moment and tried to withdraw her hand in a panic. However, Baek Woo-jin grabbed that hand much faster than Baek Ha-na.
“I, that… … .”
Hana Baek became red hot without saying a word, and started to panic while munching at Baek Woo-jin’s behavior as he stared at the back of her hand from here and there.
Baek Woo-jin, who had been staring at Baek Ha-na’s bare hand for a long time, raised his head and asked Baek Ha-na.
“What about the gloves?”
“… In your pocket… … .”
Gloves given to me by Baek Woo-jin.
Its purpose was to protect her hands, but Baek Ha-na, who did not want the gift given by Baek Woo-jin to be damaged, had never used it and cherished it.
“One hundred and one.”
“… … yes.”
Baek Woo-jin let go of Baek Ha-na’s hand and said.
“I appreciate that you value what I have gifted you.”
“… … .”
Swoop.
Baek Woo-jin’s large hand covered the back of Baek Ha-na’s hand.
“But just as you value my gift.”
The bitterness that came from the moment you realized you were hurt disappears.
“I want you to know that I value you too.”
When Baek Woo-jin removed his hand, the back of Baek Ha-na’s hand was back to the white and beautiful state it had before leaving the house.
“One hundred and one.”
“… … Yes.”
“Use what is given to you to use.”
“… … yes.”
Baek Hana shyly nodded, then jumped up and hugged Baek Woo-jin.
If you don’t, you’ll have to show a face that’s about to explode right now.
Baek Ha-na’s eyebrows wriggled as she buried her face in Baek Woo-jin’s shoulder and felt his body temperature.
A woman familiar from his arms, whose body odor had been buried so far… … .
“One hundred and one.”
“Yes Yes?”
At Baek Woo-jin’s call, Baek Ha-na jumped up and lifted her head, which had been buried in her shoulder.
“Have you finished registering for classes?”
“uh? Oh no. yet… … I am going to do it today.”
Even if I didn’t apply for the required courses anyway, they were included in the timetable, so I was thinking of filling the timetable by applying for the rest of the elective courses with roughly remaining ones.
However, at Baek Woo-jin’s words, Baek Ha-na had to open her eyes wide.
“Some lectures require attendance even on weekends, so do your research and apply.”
“… … to?”
It’s a weekend attendance.
It’s the first time I’ve heard such a word.
“There are other places that give out assignments that need to be solved externally. In order to do that, it is essential to go out and stay out on the weekends. You don’t seem to know about the overnight stay request, so I’m just letting you know in advance, so go back and find out and apply.”
“Yes… … okay.”
To be deprived of the time I could be with Baek Woo-jin.
Absolutely not.
As soon as I went back, I thought I should grab help from Lee Na-young and choose a subject.
“Dinner.”
“I didn’t eat.”
“I’ll get ready, so rest. Take a shower or something.”
Baek Woo-jin stood up with Baek Ha-na in his arms, and Baek Ha-na’s legs naturally hung down.
Swoop.
Baek Hana released her hand from Baek Woo-jin’s neck and slid down his chest.
“I will help you too.”
“… … yes.”
Baek Ha-na headed to the kitchen with Baek Woo-jin and prepared dinner wearing an apron of the same design.
“Yes. My name is Lee Na-young… … .”
Clinging next to Baek Woo-jin and eating dinner, Baek Hana told Baek Woo-jin nonstop about the stories that had only lasted for five days, and Baek Woo-jin silently listened to them.
“Then see you tomorrow!!”
“Soon curfew. Let’s go quickly.”
“Yeah, good night!”
Hana Baek quickly returned to the dormitory, promising tomorrow.
and the next day.
“Ah, skirmish!!”
I ran around busily to get a seat in the subject I wanted.
That’s how I managed to complete the timetable.
“Good night.”
“Yes… .”
One Hundred Weekend is also over.

Monday morning, when classes begin in earnest.
A post with a picture was posted on the community of Arena Academy.

You go to work with your arms folded like this even though you have no relationship?
When I refute my words, my words are right.
Don’t refute if you don’t want to break your head.
A photo attached to a post that quickly became an issue.
“… … Did you work for nothing?”
Maria scratched her head looking at the picture of Claire arm in arm with Baek Woo-jin.
