I Became a Swordsmanship Instructor at the Academy

chapter 3



(3)

academic background

“I am Kang Shin-hyeok, who is teaching 1st grade swordsmanship. I am 25 years old and I was in the Chase Guild before going to school. i look forward to.”

I wanted to say a little more detail, but the other teachers also introduced it similarly because it was brief and passed.

Still, there was a lot of applause and cheers, but I think the applause was particularly loud.

Is it because Chase is one of the largest guilds in Korea?

However, the guilds the teachers mentioned earlier were all decent places that belonged to the top 10 guilds.

“Where did Shin Hyuk go to school?”

huh? Did I really have to say this?

“Wait. Shall we guess? How about the one who guesses the membership fee waiver today?”

“That sounds like a good idea.”

“I think it’s the 7th Hunter School.”

“I will vote for the 4th Hunter School.”

I was going to say that I didn’t go to Hunter School, but they proceeded with a strange bet among themselves.

“there… .”

“Ah, Mr. Kang, don’t tell me yet. There are teachers you haven’t talked to yet.”

“If it was my school, there’s no way I wouldn’t know… I’m in 5th school then.”

I’m not a student, but I don’t know what kind of school they are scolding among office workers, but I think we should talk before the misunderstanding grows.

“That Hunter didn’t go to school.”

“Yes? Hey, how do you become a hunter without leaving the hunter school?”

“Were you a student studying abroad? Then dual citizenship?”

“Can dual citizenship apply for teacher recruitment? It must be very difficult when you enter the Hunter School.”

“I am a native Korean, but… . There aren’t any Hunters who aren’t from the Hunter School. That is the case with me too.”

Silence suddenly flows.

The moment I thought something was wrong, a new memory came to mind.

Most hunters are from hunter schools, but Kang Shin-hyeok did not go to hunter schools.

There are two conditions for entering the Hunter School.

Graduated from elementary school, and if you are a citizen of the Republic of Korea, you must have a grade below or higher in the quality test conducted at the age of 10.

Since the talents of hunters bloom from the age of 10, the government checks the qualities of hunters for 10-year-old children after their birthday.

However, Kang Shin-hyeok did not pass the qualification test.

The test kit consists of only two things: a disposable blood sampler and a test solution, but the price is 100,000 won.

It is because the body fluid of a monster called salamine enters the test solution, but the director of the orphanage stole this away, sold it, and reported that the children in the orphanage were to be tampered with.

A guy named Chang-soo, who left the orphanage as an adult, developed his abilities and took a qualification test again to register as a hunter.

There have been quite a few cases like this nationwide, so now the law has changed to conduct quality tests at schools rather than at home.

At that time, Kang Shin-hyeok was also re-examined and the result came out that he had the qualifications, but he could not go to the Hunter School.

There was no precedent for transferring from a normal school to a hunter school, and Kang Shin-hyeok’s qualities from the new prosecutor were only middle.

Of course, middle is never low.

50% is the lowest, 30% is the lowest, 15% is the middle, the difference is 4.9%, and the best is only 0.1%.

At this time, Kang Shin-hyeok was already 17 years old and was attending a regular high school.

If the qualifications were the best or the best, it would have been possible to transfer, but it was impossible to be in the middle.

After graduating from school at the age of 20, he worked as a porter following a hunter, then his ability blossomed and he became a hunter.

Hunters come together from the same hunter school, so those who are not from the hunter school, like me and Changsu, have no choice but to stay out of the way.

His school ties.

It’s a world where monsters, portals, and even hunters exist, but Korea seems to be Korea.

Even in the guild where Kang Shin-hyeok was originally, there was discrimination based on whether or not he was from the Hunter School… This, it seems that academic background is much more important than I thought.

“ah. You did.”

“There was such a case. The law changes too.”

I thought it was a relief to say it before the misunderstanding grew, but it wasn’t a relief at all.

After I said I wasn’t from the Hunter School, I was thoroughly shunned throughout the meeting.

It’s not that I didn’t speak at all.

However, when they talked about something, they only pretended to give a rough answer and then came out talking among themselves, so it was impossible to join the conversation.

Even halfway through, I wondered if I had made a mistake in the first place, but it wasn’t.

I happened to hear the stories of the female teachers who were in the same seat as I was coming out of the bathroom after doing my work.

“I was thinking of getting to know you because you were in the Chase Guild, but I didn’t know you didn’t even go to Hunter School.”

“Iknow, right. What did you look at and hire someone who didn’t even go to the Hunter School? Tsk.”

“Isn’t that it? quota system. The non-hunter school graduates protested, so there was a law to assign them.”

“Is the Hunter School also subject to that law?”

“Otherwise, how would I have gotten in? The half-penny who protests every time even though they don’t have the ability.”

“To be honest, calling me Hunter is a little too much. By the way, what should I do because I feel sorry for the first-year swordsman students? Learning from someone like that.”

“Anyway, in the first year, I only teach physical strength and the basics, so it should be fine. It must have been deliberately entrusted to the 1st grade because the school also has an idea.”

“I heard that the basics are also important in swordsmanship… And if you see that there are no general subject teachers, you would know, but you don’t notice. I don’t know if they’re saying they’ll come again next time.”

“I guess he thought it was okay to be called a hunter. Well, the face is smooth though.”

“oh. Mr. Jung, are you interested?”

“Not at all. What do you do when you have a half face? If you didn’t go to the hunter school, you’d be just right.”

“Size? Ah, if I didn’t go to Hunter School, I would have come from an orphanage.”

“Still, your face is smooth, isn’t it okay to meet for fun?”

“Ah, Ms. Yoo, it’s a bit like meeting things that don’t have such a foundation.”

I never imagined in my wildest dreams that we would be talking behind the scenes like this without even having a proper conversation.

Is education really that important?

It was never specifically mentioned that there was such discrimination in the novel… .

Is it like that?

The main character of the original work, the main character who possesses it, or an honor student and an inferior student, the only difference is that they are both hunter school students.

Not only that, but the hunters that appear in the novel are all from the hunter school, so it seems that they have not been mentioned.

It’s ridiculous.

Aside from everything else, isn’t Kang Shin-hyeok a victim?

Whether or not they went to the Hunter School, they are the same Hunter, and according to Kang Shin-hyeok’s memory, there was no such thing as a quota system in the Hunter School recruitment process.

They took the same test and confidently passed it, becoming the same teacher as them.

And orphans are a sin?

I wanted to ask if it would be fun to talk like that behind my back without knowing him well, but I held back.

It seemed that no one would take my side in the event of a fight.

No matter how much I vowed not to live as an asshole, I don’t want to hang out with people like this.

I didn’t need to stay anymore, so I returned to my seat and said I’d go first and left the store because I thought I was drunk from drinking too much.

It’s a matter of course, but no one was holding back, even if it was a horse.

On my way back, I searched the Internet to find out why people from non-hunter schools were so despised and discriminated against.

It was similar to what I had heard before.

Kang Shin-hyeok was the same, but those from non-hunter schools had poor quality evaluation results.

In addition, hunter school graduates received a systematic education that was created over many years, and non-hunter school graduates did not.

no, i couldn’t

So, of course, there is bound to be a difference in ability between the two groups.

Discrimination like this existed from the beginning, but it seems to have gotten worse recently.

As I said in my back story earlier, the non-hunter discrimination law was passed in solidarity with non-hunter school graduates who were ignored and discriminated against.

As a law to prohibit discrimination and disregard, it is a law based on blind processing so that hunters cannot be identified when hiring hunters, but some public institutions assign and hire non-hunter school graduates separately.

So now the hunters from the hunter school are horny.

Those who are not even capable are protesting and trying to guarantee their rights.

Contrary to the purpose of the law, the hatred for non-hunter school graduates only got worse.

I understand, but it’s unfair.

It wasn’t because I was protesting, and even in Kang Shin-hyeok’s memory, he had never participated in a protest or signed anything.

In the first place, Hunter School does not even implement a quota system.

I washed my face, calmed down, and lay down on the bed.

The whole time I was coming back, I felt like a beggar, but I should have said something instead of holding back.

regret it belatedly

Even if the outside has changed, is it because the inside is still ugly?

I thought Kang Shin-hyeok’s life without a family was free and good because he went through a lot of hardships because of his family, but after today’s work, he seemed to think it was too good.

Should I drop out of school?

I was quite satisfied with my school life, but from today onwards, there will be people who talk behind my back like before, and I think I will be very stressed… .

The reason I came to school is because of the main character.

The events that will happen in the future, especially a few years after the protagonist graduates from school, bring about big changes in the world.

The number of portals also increases, and stronger monsters that do not appear now appear.

Of course, the number of hunters is increasing and the main character is also active, but it is not enough to handle all the increasing monsters.

In the end, countless portal liberation phenomena occur and monsters pour out, making a mess everywhere in the world.

Unless you live in a cave deep in the mountains, hiding and eating canned food until the protagonist solves the problem, it’s safest to build a friendship with the protagonist and stay by his side.

Besides, the original work is a book possession.

The possessed protagonist also knows the future, so it might be strange if I’m not at school.

Building up a friendship with the main character will definitely help in the future, but I’m also a hunter, so wouldn’t it be possible to take care of myself?

In the first place, Kang Shin-hyeok is not a very important person.

Maybe even the main character doesn’t know Kang Shin-hyeok isn’t at school, and even if he does, he thinks it’s a bit strange, but he won’t try to find it himself.

yes. It won’t be okay if you make an excuse that you are moderately sick… under… .

Even with that promise, you’re thinking of running away again.

It’s pathetic.

I don’t want to run away like I did in my previous life here.

It should change.

No, it will be changed unconditionally.

Not for anyone else, just for me.

“Here it is.”

“thank you.”

“As you know, the security system turns on at midnight, so you should be at school by midnight tomorrow at the latest. Otherwise, you have to come by 8:00 the next morning.”

“Yes. All right.”

I packed my pass and left the administrative office.

Despite being a teacher and not a student, he had to submit a note of reason and get a permit to go out on the weekend.

As for the reason, I wrote that it was a real estate transaction because simply meeting a friend or going out to play could be rejected.

This isn’t even the military, and he let me through well during dinner, so what’s his security? I’m annoyed, but whatever.

Anyway, I already got permission.

I showed my pass at the front door and left the school.

Then, I called a call taxi and moved to Dong Seoul Bus Terminal.

Since it was a weekend, it was very crowded, so I managed to get through the crowds to get to the ticket office.

“Where are you going?”

“The bus to Inje Jangsudae, one adult.”

“It is 15,600 won.”

I paid by card and got a ticket.

After thinking about it all night, I came to a conclusion.

to stay in school

It’s good for the other teachers to ignore and reject them for being from non-hunter schools, but not everyone will.

Hunter School also has teachers who teach general subjects such as Korean language, Korean history, and mathematics.

And since I am a civil servant who is an iron rice bowl, there is no way they can say that they don’t like me.

If I don’t care, it’s fine, but it doesn’t make sense to give up a job that’s well-paid, fun, and comfortable, and will even help you in the future.

Rather, there was an error.

I don’t have any intention of just being obedient.

So today, I plan to find a talent unconditionally.

No matter how much you ignore it, it’s enough to prove it with your skills.
