The school representative who was supposed to be selected mainly for the second year was also a sophomore who has accumulated excellent achievements in other fields, research achievements, and outside activities.
It was impossible to overtake them and participate in the attack on the otherworld due to the rules of the school, and the first-year students who had Gwanglim less than half a year won as the candidates.
The entire conference room was in a state of turmoil at the unexpected development.
“Ah… Joo Soohyuk and An Da-in, I’ve heard of the two names. Are you the class leader of the first and second classes of the first year that you are still co-leading?”
“These are the kids who stood on the podium at the entrance ceremony.”
“Oh? I think I’ve heard of the name.”
“It’s him. The unknown supernova.”
“Ah! The award-winning vice president who won the chess tournament.”
All the students present in the conference room looked at the three selected as candidates for school representatives from the first year.
“Congratulations! Somehow, I felt like I was going to be pulled out.” Kim Yuri cried out in a bright voice.“…Thanks.”
It was only natural for my handsome title hero and heroine to be selected as the school’s representative, but it was a bit awkward to have my name appear alongside them.
‘It’s true that I’m selected if I take only the achievements and grades I showed at school soberly….’
During the freshman year, there were a lot of playable characters who had not had a chance to play an active role yet. I felt a bit like that when I beat them and was elected as the representative.
“We will continue to announce the candidates for the second year. Year 2 Class 1…”
After the crowd calmed down a bit, Yoo Sang-hee continued to read the list. Among the sophomores, about 20 were selected as candidates. Most of them were playable characters or NPCs, but they also had an unexpected name.
‘Gye Dam was also chosen.’
Gye Dam was a reticent sophomore who belonged to the Jiikhoe and had a preference for ghost stories. His ability was unknown, but the fact that he was selected without a preliminary round meant that he had the skills to match those mentioned above with Yeom Jun-yeoul, Cheon Dong-ha, and Kwak Kyung-gu.
‘I haven’t heard what conclusion Gye Dam has come up to yet.’
“…This concludes the second quarter student representative meeting.”
While deep in thought, the meeting ended with a declaration by Do Won-woo, the chairperson and student council president.
“Amazing, Great. I’ll post an article right away! President Joo, I’ll leave the minutes of today’s meeting to you!”
“Okay. I will be looking forward to the article.”
“Oh, please conduct an interview with me later!”
“If you send me the script in advance, I will prepare an answer.”
“Huh! Da-in and Jo Eushin too! Please!”
Saying that, Moon Sae-ron naturally brought An Da-in and put her next to Joo Soohyuk and squinted at me.
‘You’re leaving the back to me.’
After completing his role in that way, Moon Sae-ron started running towards the newspapers as soon as her hands were able to get their hands on them. Joo Soohyuk, who gladly accepted Moon Sae-ron’s request, talked to An Da-in as he stood right next to her.
“Oh, I have to go straight to class! Lena said she wanted to buy ‘her headband’ this time, so she decided to go shopping with the girls.”
Was it the lace headband that Kwon Jae-in wore on her album jacket and sold out when she came out? If Kwon Lena wanted to have it, she would just buy her headband that Kwon Jae-in was wearing right now, as well as the one she sponsored, and give it to her.
‘If Kwon Lena says she can’t buy it, I’ll tell her later. Did you know?’
With that, Kim Yuri naturally left the room. During the meeting, Yoo Sang-hoon, whose hair had become a magpie house, spoke up. “Hey, if there’s nothing to do, let’s do 1 on 1. I brought a basketball.”
“Yeah, let’s go. We’ll see you all next time.”
As they left the first-year district, I heard Joo Soohyuk and An Da-in, who were left behind, cautiously talking to each other.
“Excuse me.”
“Hey.”
They both spoke at the same time. An awkward atmosphere began to flow between the two of them again. After several concessions, An Da-in spoke up first. “I still want to talk. So, about the book you recommended…”
“Hey, where would you like to sit and talk about it?”
“… … Huh!”
‘Looking at them like that, it seems as if two of them can’t even have dinner together.’
“Ah, I think your name came up at the meeting. Was that an accident?” Hearing that, I got shaken out of my thoughts.
Yoo Sang-hoon said that he had slept properly during the meeting. “No. I was selected as a candidate for an exchange between Korea, China, and Japan.”
“It’s okay. Was Yoo Sang-hee elected too?”
“There is a possibility that it may not be held within this year, so the third year was not on the list. You are busy preparing for graduation and deciding on your career path.”
“…Oh, okay.” Yoo Sang-hoon’s expression subtly changed when he heard the word career path.
I think that guy was also a little worried about Yoo Sang-hee. “Hey, first-year student.”
“Won-woo hyung, there are two first-year students.”
An unexpected person was waiting for me. It was Do Won-woo who ended up calling me. Hearing a word from the side, everything went wild. I didn’t know what the 2nd and 3rd-year seniors were here for.
“Why are you here again?” Yoo Sang-hoon looked at Do Won-woo with a disgusting look.
However, Do Won-woo looked at Yoo Sang-hoon with a friendly expression and said, “Brother-in-law, how are you? I want to talk to my brother-in-law, but now I don’t call my brother-in-law, but the cheeky guy next to him… Whoops!”
Before Yoo Sang-hoon’s fist flew away, Cheon Dong-ha struck Do Won-woo’s throat with the blade of his hand. I was amazed at the lightning-like workmanship. Like my playable character, Cheon Dong-ha not only had a good brain, but also had excellent physical abilities.
“Won-woo hyung, Sang-hee’s older sister didn’t have anything to do with it. Don’t bother with the story.”
From the way they spoke, the two appeared to be quite friendly with each other. “…After all, it’s a word.”
Do Won-woo didn’t say it right away. He gulped down his saliva, mixed, and hurled his words like a rapid-fire gun. “It’s hard to say I’m not very grateful.”
“Then, I shall go.” Cheon Dong-ha and Yoo Sang-hoon looked at Do Won-woo with pitiful eyes, but he steadfastly behaved in an ugly manner and turned his back
“Wait for a moment.”
“Yes?”
“After the final exam, I was going to apply for a chess game. Isn’t it today?” Cheon Dong-ha said while looking at the single ball carrier Yoo Sang-hoon was holding.
“Yes. I have a pre-order. May I call you next time?”
“Sure, I’ll wait.” Cheon Dong-ha was not a belligerent type, so I did not think that he would apply for a match so actively.
Dong-ha still seemed to be immersed in his thoughts when he left.
“What are you doing? Let’s go.” At the sound of Yoo Sang-hoon’s call, he stopped thinking and headed to the playground.
That day, he played basketball 1-on-1 with Yoo Sang-hoon until the sun went down. The skill gap between Yoo Sang-hoon and I, who had been steadily training in the basketball team, was widening.
Even so, Yoo Sang-hoon suppressed me as it was without looking at me like an adult. The score difference of more than 15 points was divided, so we applied for a rematch several times, but we continued to lose. Whether it was better to beat the beginner mercilessly, Yoo Sang-hoon handed over the dinner menu option to me.

The next morning. Early this morning, a message from my disciple Yeom Jun-yeoul arrived.
[Yum Jun-yeoul] Hello, Master.
[Yeom Jun-yeoul] The rainy season front will go north in earnest from tomorrow, so it will rain in the morning and heavy rain from late at night.
As usual, after talking about the weather, we continued to discuss on a personal level.
[Yeom Jun-yeoul] When the rainy season starts, every time I go out, the number of bodyguards doubles up and I feel stuffy. When I go to and from school, I have to be with Je-gun hyung…
Even if it didn’t rain, didn’t Yong Je-gun stick with Yeom Jun-yeoul? Aside from the increase in bodyguards, the latter seemed to be just making excuses.
[Yeom Jun-yeoul] If I become strong enough not to be affected by the rain, will you allow me to go out alone on a rainy day?
[Yeom Jun-yeoul] I want to get strong by taking Master’s next class soon!
[Yum Jun-yeoul] (Stamp)
On the stamp sent by Yeom Jun-yeoul, a deformed Hong-ryong was holding an umbrella. Seeing the raindrops falling on the umbrella, Hong-ryong’s expression looked weak. It seems that the designer drew this by reflecting the nature of Hong-ryong, who was found to have been weak in water.
‘Shall we go to the next class when the rain stops?’
He was reluctant to do high-risk training against Yeom Jun-yeoul, who was weakened. Rain was something that Yeom Jun-yeoul would have to overcome someday, but not now. As I was organizing my thoughts, something caught my mind.
‘There was no sexual talk.’
‘If my student doesn’t want to mention it, I have to pretend he doesn’t know.’
The next time I met Yeom Jun-yeoul, I promised to be careful.
He had a lesson plan in his head as he entered the Year 1 building after early morning training.
‘What is this sound?’
A quarrel could be heard from somewhere. The sound came from the special classroom on the first floor. It was a classroom that was converted from a multi-purpose room to an honorary teacher only.
‘The honorary teachers in charge of the first year are all major figures.’
As I approached to check what was going on, I heard a loud noise.
“You’ve seen my grandpa too, I don’t have talent or anything going on for me! Gwanglim and Gaho are like two heads, so I can’t even use them!”
“Goyan! I told you not to call me grandpa!”
“Is that part so important now?!” It was the voice of Bang Yeon Sub and Takgeo-san.
“I will not! F**k! After all, you’re just using me in the end! Don’t try to be a teacher like you are generous!”
Takgeo-san’s answer did not come right away.
* * *
Kim Shin-rok went to work early in the morning. He was alone watching his work in the office on the top floor of the Year 1 building.
‘Last year was the same, but this year, it was very difficult to secure a place.’
A few years ago, a bill to amend the building law proposed by National Assemblyman Seong Guk-eon was passed. The main amendments to the bill were related to player accommodation facilities.
‘Considering his abilities, he should have set the load limit and strength higher. Rather, the law revision was delayed.’
Thanks to this, the number of safety accidents related to players decreased a lot, but there was still a lot more work to be done.
‘Are you in good health? … .’
Back then, a Young Seong Guk-eon, who had turned the school upside down with all sorts of pranks, smiled as he remembered it. When he quietly held a funeral to disguise his fake identity, Seong Guk-eon came to pay his condolences as to how he knew…“Shin-green.”
The recall was interrupted by Yong Je-gun’s voice. I thought for a while as to why Yong Je-gun came to work so early, but the conclusion came quickly.
‘It must have been because I was going to school with the descendants of the dragon tribe.’
The final exams were over and it was raining, so why did the descendants of the dragon tribe go to school so early?
Wasn’t the castle full for the second seat? Were the situation and attitude of the descendant of the beloved dragon different from himself as a subtle descendant?
“You are to head out of Eungwang High. The ‘eye’ problem has not been resolved yet.”
Yong Je-gun tapped the name of ‘Seokmo-do’ with a longer finger over the paperwork over Kim Shin-rok’s shoulder. It seemed that Kim Shin-rok, who was in an unstable position, did not want to go out of the new role.
“You are a burden now, so I won’t accompany you. Because the zeroth, first and second halves move together. … … Hwang-ho and you are going, is there anything special about that?”
“Actually, there are other things besides the ‘eye’ problem.” Yong Je-gun’s turquoise eyes lit up against Kim Shin-rok in the silence.
“Not long ago, in Eungwang High, I saw a person whom the ‘Crow Demon King’ loved. I found out that that demon lord still doesn’t like me.”
