I Became an Academy Regular

Dead Eyes (2)

The star-shaped eyes that always shined in Oh Yun-ha were nowhere to be seen. It makes me wonder how a person’s mood can change so gloomy in just one day.

Yoon-seong Oh found me in the classroom, stopped and spoke to me first.

“Are your friends taking this class too?”

“···Oh Yoon-seong, right? Class A.”

“That’s right. What’s your friend’s name?”

I took my eyes off Yoon-ha Oh and said,

“It’s Seo Ji-han.”

“··· Seo Ji-han? Is it that friend?”

that friend. It was a word with many connotations, but I knew what it meant. When I smiled bitterly and nodded my head, Oh Yoon-seong was taken aback.

“It seems late now, but I’m really sorry. Because of my younger brother…”

Oh Yun-seong said while looking back at Oh Yoon-ha. She would normally say something at this point, but she kept her mouth shut and her head bowed.

I asked Yoon-ha Oh.

“Why are you doing that, Oh Yoon-ha?”

“Um, did you see that yesterday?”

“···uh.”

of course i saw In the match against Park Noah, Oh Yun-ha is helpless and robbed of nothing.

Yunseong Oh sighed and shook his head.

“Whoa. The shock seems to be a bit big. It seems like it’s been in this state since yesterday, showing no signs of getting better.

Come to think of it, even when I was riding the Jin-ending route, after I beat Oh Yun-ha in the prologue, I didn’t show her appearance at all in the early story. Why did you do that…?

‘It was because of this state.’

I didn’t know there was such a backstory. When our eyes meet, Oh Yoon-ha avoids looking down as usual. It seems that the mentality is completely gone.

Even if it’s not the first defeat in my life, it’s probably the first time I’ve suffered so unilaterally. It would be the first time I met a wall called Noah Park among my peers.

I even suffered such a defeat in front of a large crowd…

‘eww.’

It’s terrifying to think I’ve suffered. No matter how bright a person is, it is impossible to act normally.

Oh Yoon-seong made a bitter expression.

“Even the elders of the family don’t say much, and they always say that it’s natural that you can’t win, but there’s a lot of crying and screaming after losing that one…, ugh!”

Oh Yoon-seong frowned in surprise as to whether he had pinched him from behind.

“Oh Yun-ha! It hurts.”

“…noisy. If I fight him again, I win this time.”

A gloomy voice was heard from behind Oh Yun-seong. According to Oh Yun-seong’s words, he was crying and shouting, and Oh Yun-ha’s voice was very hoarse.

“Oh Yoon-ha.”

“···why?”

When I called his name, Oh Yun-ha poked her head over Yoon-seong Oh. She cried so much that her face was even more swollen than usual.

‘Still, I don’t think he was so shocked that he didn’t say anything at all.’

He’s always been bright, so he’ll recover soon. As a comfort, I said exactly what I had heard from Oh Yun-ha the other day.

“Still, isn’t it just that you’re starting to feel like you’re winning?”

Oh Yoon-ha looked at me quietly with dead eyes for a while, and then a single tear streamed down her cheek.

‘uh?’

Seeing that scene, my body stiffened.

“…Ah, sorry. It’s been like this since yesterday.”

Oh Yun-ha wiped the tears with her sleeve as if it was nothing special. I saw it and hurriedly added.

“I’m just saying this, you know it’s a joke, right? That’s what you said to me before.”

“Yeah. I made a mistake in my words back then…. I’m sorry if I felt bad….”

Oh Yoon-ha bowed to me and apologized. I bit her mouth and witnessed Oh Yun-seong’s expression darkening.

“… well. You’re talking a bit rudely as you’ve been told.”

nope, shit.

I’d like to say it’s a misunderstanding, but I don’t think it will get any better once you open your mouth. Before the atmosphere got any weirder, I struggled to change the topic.

“Then why do you guys take chess lessons?”

“Ah. He couldn’t be with other people at all, so he chose a lecture with few people. The instructor of the physical arts class knew him a bit, so he asked for it and was able to change it quickly.”

Oh Yoon-seong waved his hand and continued.

“Don’t get me wrong. Because there were no aspiring heroes who applied to the extent of being canceled this year anyway, so I was able to change it. So, regardless of class A or class B, I’m taking the lecture as an integrated one. …But what did you come here for?”

“What did you come here for? I came to listen to a lecture.”

At my answer, Oh Yoon-seong put on a puzzled expression.

“Didn’t you hear that the instructor went out to attack the gate today and the class was suspended?”

I didn’t hear it at all. Oh Yoon-seong noticed it right away, so he coughed and walked over. . . . I am very considerate of you trying to get past it.

“Heh, I guess it didn’t work out. I’ve heard that you are the gunner, so why are you trying to learn chess?”

“It’s just creating another means of fighting.”

“Is that so? Then… if it’s okay with you, would it be okay if I teach you? Only in moderation.”

“Huh? I’m fine.”

He is a guy who has always trained with his bare body, so he knows the art of chess.

Oh Yun-seong took off his coat and followed him towards the dagger in front of the lecture hall. But as soon as I stood in front of him, I had a question.

what do you teach I’m not talking about self-defense.

“How will you teach me?”

“Of course it’s a real battle. It’s a real battle about how to respond to incoming attacks.”

Oh Yoon-seong said so and turned his shoulders around as if he was waiting.

…well, you bastard. You’re not trying to retaliate for what I said to Oh Yun-ha earlier, are you? Such anxiety slowly creeped up.

Yoon-Sung Oh took a pose to prepare. For some reason, it’s a familiar form.

‘Uh, is this what it is?’

In the past, when I rode the wizard route, there was a ‘vegetable food’ that Oh Yun-seong taught me would be helpful. It’s a method of mental training that comes down to the family, but it was meant to move mana quickly.

In order to acquire that characteristic, I practiced like a rhythm game that takes a set movement according to the beat like DDR. Obviously, the first movement started with the movement of swinging the right arm outward…

“Then I’ll start.”

As soon as Oh Yun-seong moved, I turned my body to the left and crossed my arms and lifted it. He even prepared to step back in case of shock.

But the awaited attack did not come. When I looked at Yoon-seong Oh, he stood still in the same posture he was about to swing his forearm at me.

“I will not?”

At my question, Oh Yun-seong lowered his arms and relaxed his posture.

“No. I’m not even a professional instructor, so I guess I made a mistake. If you get hurt, you’ll have a problem, so let’s just pretend it didn’t exist and stop here.”

“Suddenly? Out of the blue why….”

I felt my phone vibrate while I was speaking. When I checked, I saw a message from Ryu Seo-yeon out of the blue.

“Sorry. Wait a minute.”

I apologized and checked the contents of the text.

[Did you apply for Black Hawk’s weapon due to an injury? I’ll take you, so come forward.]

…why do you have a sick child to pick you up?

Oh Yoon-seong looked at the back door where Seo Ji-han had left. He said he had to go because he had a place to go.

“Last time, didn’t you say that Seo Ji-han is one of the best in A-class for mana-handling talent?”

“···It did.”

When Oh Yun-ha nodded her head helplessly, Oh Yun-seong smirked. As soon as he looked where he thought he was going to attack, he was immediately blocked. He was quite perplexed.

‘It was…’

It was as if he had read his movements. So he immediately took a blocking stance. It may have been taken by accident, but his level is not so low that he cannot tell them apart.

‘What did you notice?’

Sight? shoulder movement? Anything is great. Oh Yoon-seong muttered to himself.

“I don’t think it’s just that talent.”

When I came out of the building, I saw Ryu Seo-yeon in the distance. Even though it’s not very cold, he’s dressed tightly. I hurriedly approached Ryu Seo-yeon.

“It hurts. Why did you come out?”

“Uh… I didn’t want to come out either, but Instructor Choi Ye-chan told me to deliver the injury.”

Ryu Seo-yeon, wearing a mask, said hard.

The impression was frowned upon. For what purpose do you make that companion to a sick child? I know where it is anyway, and I can’t even open a warehouse without a manager.

“Let’s go quickly. It’s cold.”

“Huh? Uh.”

I thought I would spit out any complaints, but Ryu Seo-yeon began to move smoothly. I followed Ryu Seo-yeon to the black warehouse located behind the equipment supply station.

On the front door, along with the security system, the symbol of the Black Hawk was engraved with a large ‘Black Hawk’. The warehouse is already filled with Black Hawk’s weapons. Since this amount was sponsored at one time, it can be sprayed on injuries in special occasions or competitions.

‘Ugh. Still, I’m a little reluctant here.’

Maybe because I saw the awkward scene, my memory came to mind automatically when I came here.

‘Attack of the Necromancer’. At that time, the remnants of the wizards, of course, robbed this place. However, the strength and security of the warehouse were so strong that their magic level could not be dispelled, so the wizards took the managers and authenticated them themselves.

By plucking the eyes for iris recognition.

Fingerprint recognition is done by cutting off your finger.

Each of them needed their own traces of mana, but with the power of a wizard, that level was possible.

I didn’t actually see the process, but during the course of the scenario, I passed an already stolen weapon warehouse. When I opened the door that had already been unlocked, I could see a scene of badly mutilated corpses.

Where the eyes should be, the eyes are pulled out and empty, and the fingers are also cut off at each joint.

It was produced to show the brutal scenes and the humanity of the inhuman wizards, but it was exceptionally blatantly expressed and cruel. It is said that some gamers who played without the Mosaic function vomited.

I asked Ryu Seo-yeon as I stood in front of the warehouse.

“So, when is the manager coming?”

[-Verified.]

“What are you doing? You’re not coming in.”

The machine’s voice was heard, and the red security system turned green. Ryu Seo-yeon was staring at me, leaving the open warehouse behind me to come in.

“…how do you open this?”

“I’m the manager too.”

No, it’s open, so of course the manager.

I asked why Ryu Seo-yeon has the qualifications of a manager. Ryu Seo-yeon crouched down because it was cold and replied with a tone that it was no big deal.

“Hey, it’s strange that the Black Hawk’s successor doesn’t qualify for certification.”

“······uh?”

Ryu Seo-yeon sighed deeply at my reaction and said.

“This is why you didn’t tell me about the past last time. You’ve said something to me about this before… What, where are you looking?”

“No… because of vertigo for a second.”

‘The successor of the Black Hawk.’

Hearing those words, a system that had never been seen before in the game came to mind.
