Episode 13. anti-war (1)
One.
The class competition between 3rd graders ended as dull as I expected.
Other third-year seniors had no choice but to kneel before senior Tae Ji-hyuk’s overwhelming talent.
When my words turned out to be correct, Hwang Da-bin asked me with my eyes closed.
“It’s really great. Lee Si-woo, aren’t you going to watch the second-year class competition?”
I opened my eyes at that question. As the illusion was activated, status windows for various people began to appear.
“no. “I will see.”
“huh?”
Dabin Hwang tilted his head when I said that he would watch the 2nd grade class competition even though he did not watch the 3rd grade class competition.
I said this to Hwang Da-bin, who looked puzzled.
“There is more for second-year seniors to see than third-year seniors.”
“okay?”
Dabin Hwang gave an expression of uncertainty and turned his gaze back to the center of the auditorium.
I also moved my gaze to the center of the auditorium.
“huh?”
At that time, I felt strange gazes on me, so I looked towards where the teachers were and saw that Kang Geum was looking at me.
I looked to the side when I saw Kang Yeon-geum making an interesting expression while looking this way.
I think it was because of Selina.
There are a few things I realized while living in this world for the first and second rounds.
First of all, perhaps because of the story of the novel, episodes that have a big impact on the novel always happen.
Likewise, the relationships between characters often remained the same even if I changed the future.
‘The relationship between these two is also like that.’
In the first round, Kang Yeon-geum worked hard to make Selina his disciple.
It was the same in the second episode, where I dominated the main character’s role. Of course, when he first saw me, he was swayed by me and tried to make me his disciple, but when I stubbornly refused, he turned his attention to Selina.
In other words, in the third session, the lecture money will make efforts to make Selina a disciple.
I think I heard that it was because Hwaryeong is a talent that helps with alchemy, but I thought it was ‘not really.’
Suddenly, the status window called Potential Talent came to mind, and I checked my intimacy with Selina.
-Closeness: 20
└As intimacy increases, potential talents can be identified.
└Potential talent: ???
‘Is it higher than Jeong Ju-won?’
Well, I’ve been training with Hwang Da-bin and Selina recently, so I think we can say we’ve become a little closer.
However, the potential talent was still coming out as ‘???’.
‘I really don’t know what kind of intimacy system this is.’
In any case, he couldn’t make Selina become Kang Yeon-geum’s disciple. Because her mentor was different from Selina.
While I was thinking that, teacher Hye-ran Yoo’s voice rang out.
“Alright then, let’s start the second year class competition!”
“Jeong Joo-won, is there a senior to keep an eye on in the second year?”
At Yoo Ah-ram’s words, Jeong Ju-won began to open his mouth.
“There is still data for second-year seniors… However, from what I have gathered so far, I know that class 3, which includes senior Kim Min-seok, has a chance of winning.”
“Senior Kim Min-seok? “What kind of talent is this?”
“I heard that senior Minseok has a talent for magic. “I don’t know for sure, but Class 3 has the highest chance of winning.”
In response to Jeong Joo-won’s words, I said something.
“Probably not.”
“huh?”
As I was looking at the second graders preparing for the class competition, I saw a senior and smiled.
That senior will chew up the 2nd year class competition.
I looked at her name tag. The name Minji Choi was engraved on the nameplate.
2.
“Minseok, where are you looking at me like that?”
“Ah, I see quite a few fair-faced kids among these freshmen.”
“Wow, the competition is just around the corner, so you’re relaxed?”
Kim Min-seok snorted at the words of Park Dong-woo, who was competing against the opposition together.
A year has passed since I entered Awakening High School. With only 100 students, it was possible to learn everything in one year.
In Minseok Kim’s opinion, there was no student who could beat him.
“Don’t worry, you know my skills, right?”
Park Dong-woo looked uncomfortable at Kim Min-seok’s words, which were full of confidence. What he said was right, but it felt like arrogance, not confidence.
Although his skills are good, he could get seriously hurt if he lets his guard down.
“Okay then, let’s start the second year class competition! Participants in classes 1 and 2, and participants in classes 3 and 4, please come forward.”
Class 5 was selected as the bye winner. Park Dong-woo turned to Kim Min-seok when the presiding teacher called him.
Minseok Kim shouted while rolling up his arms.
“Let’s show off our skills!”
***
Jeong Joo-won watched the second graders’ class competition carefully as Lee Si-woo said.
Because Lee Si-woo’s words were caught. Due to the nature of the talent of information analysis, it was possible to predict the outcome if one had the information.
Based on the information obtained so far, it was clear that class 3 was the winner of this class competition.
Kim Min-seok is a senior who is known for his gangly personality and for being attracted to women, but his talent related to magic was by far the most outstanding talent among second-year students.
“Yes, Kim Min-seok of Class 3 is using his unique magic to put pressure on the students of Class 4!”
While listening to teacher Hye-ran Yoo’s voice, Ju-won Jeong thought that there was definitely no opponent for Min-seok Kim in class 4.
‘So are they in classes 1 and 2?’
Roommate Lee Si-woo’s actions after entering school often deviated from the information.
To be honest, I ignored it because it was F-rank, but I realized it after seeing how it was when dealing with Fenrir.
The fact is that Lee Si-woo is an awakened person outside of his class.
It is known that out-of-grade awakeners shine when their talents are linked to other talents.
Maybe that’s why, but in conjunction with Hwang Da-bin’s buff, Lee Si-woo displayed outstanding skills.
Seeing that, Jeong Joo-won was watching Lee Si-woo secretly.
“uh? “The students in class 1 are not able to withstand the attacks of Minji Choi in class 2?”
“Hey, that student. “Your swordsmanship is quite impressive.”
I heard the voices of teacher Hye-ran Yoo and hero Kang Yeon-geum.
‘Senior Choi Min-ji?’
It was my first time hearing this name. When I looked back at Si-woo Lee, I saw him smiling and looking at senior Choi Min-ji.
Jeong Ju-won was convinced by that appearance.
The fact that the ambush of the second-year class competition was that female senior.
“Ha!”
Every time senior Choi Min-ji showed off her spirit, the other senior was seen stumbling.
“Ugh, what is it? Was Minji Choi this strong?”
The most absurd thing was the students in class 1 who were being bullied. The students who were receiving Minji Choi’s sword were going crazy and jumping up and down.
“Stop it!!”
“You can’t stop that, avoid it!”
“Haaap!!”
“I, I abstain!!”
Shoo!
Choi Min-ji’s wooden sword swung at the other party’s declaration of abstention stopped at the head of the student who slumped down.
“Yes, class 2 wins!”
At Teacher Hye-ran Yoo’s declaration, the attention of her classmates turned to senior Min-ji Choi.
“It doesn’t seem like anything special… … .”
“I know.”
Jeong Ju-won agreed with Hwang Da-bin’s words.
“Who do you think will win?”
Yoo Ah-ram asked again, and Jeong Ju-won, who was looking at senior Kim Min-seok and Choi Min-ji alternately, answered.
A battle between an awakened person who has awakened a talent for magic and an awakened person who has awakened a talent for swordsmanship. It may be 1-on-1, but this is a 3-on-3 match. In many-to-many battles, magic has an overwhelming advantage.
“Honestly, I still expect senior Kim Min-seok to win overwhelmingly.”
Yoo Ah-ram nodded to Jeong Joo-won’s answer. I was curious about Lee Si-woo’s thoughts and was about to ask him, when Lee Si-woo stood up.
“We should go get ready too.”
“uh? That’s right. “It’s our turn next.”
At Lee Si-woo’s words, Hwang Da-bin and Selina stood up following Lee Si-woo, and Jeong Joo-won, who missed the timing of speaking, could only cheer for him to do well.
“Roommate, make sure to come in first place.”
“of course.”
Even though he said so, Jeong Joo-won thought in his heart that he would not be able to win against Yun Mir, the top student.
3.
I came down to the first floor with Dabin Hwang and Selina.
“I am very nervous because I think it will soon be our turn.”
Selina responded to Dabin Hwang’s muttering.
“As long as you do what you practiced, you’ll be fine.”
As I watched Selina say something motivating for some reason, I realized that she was also nervous.
Those words are also something you say to yourself.
The moment I thought I needed to help, Yoon Mir and the first class students appeared in front of us.
“uh? “Dabin, how are you?”
Yun Mir greeted him first, and Hwang Da-bin spoke to Yoon Mir with an annoyed expression on his face.
“I can’t say goodbye. “I will definitely beat you this time.”
“Yes, yes. Let’s do our best together.”
Mir Yoon smiled at Dabin Hwang’s words and walked towards the students of Class 1 where Class 1 was waiting.
“Have you always known each other?”
Dabin Hwang answered Selina’s question, which was very talkative today.
“Middle school classmate.”
“I see.”
I clapped my hands at their reactions.
match!
“Now, look over there.”
“huh?”
“why? What?”
I pointed to where the second graders were competing.
“Jung Joo-won said that earlier, right? Sophomores will win the class with senior Kim Min-seok. But I don’t think so?”
At those words, I looked towards where Hwang Da-bin and Selina were holding the finals of the second-year class competition.
“Wow, that’s huge! Student Choi Min-ji and Kim Min-seok are getting closer and closer to Kim Min-seok by dodging or cutting down the magic he is shooting at them!”
Even though it wasn’t Teacher Yoo Hye-ran’s voice that was heard through the microphone, it was clearly visible.
Because the aura rising from the wooden sword was visible.
Seeing the surprised expressions on their faces, I helped them.
“Senior Minji Choi, your talent level is probably C grade?”
“what?”
“But you can move like that?”
“What I’m saying is that grades aren’t everything. ‘Like us.’”
I emphasized the afterword. Personally, I might lag behind Yoon Mir. Because he was the ‘main character’.
But now we were a team, and if we did what we practiced for a week, we could beat Yoon Mir. Because he was still a young chick with little combat experience.
And these guys don’t know how much they have grown since the past week of training. I needed to instill confidence.
Kwaang!!
Soon, along with a heavy drinking binge, the sight of senior Choi Min-ji pointing a sword at senior Kim Min-seok’s neck came into view.
“Well, the winner is Minji Choi!! Ah, no, it’s class 2!!”
“Isn’t it amazing? We can do that too. “Just do what you practiced.”
Dabin Hwang and Selina nodded with sparkling eyes at my words.
4.
“The bye is Class 1.”
After the 2nd grade class competition was over, it was our turn to draw lots, and whether it was luck or bad luck, class 1 got the bye.
What he meant was that he was able to face Yunmir after confronting another class at least once.
The first-year class competition schedule was as follows.
[Class 2 vs. Class 4]
[Class 3 vs. Class 5]
Knowing that I would be competing against Class 3, I looked at the three top performers in Class 3.
They were also looking at us.
At that time, one guy stepped forward and glared at Hwang Da-bin and said.
“Hey, ‘second seat.’ From what I saw earlier, it seemed like Yoon Mir and I were saying that we should do our best. “Only the chief is visible and we are not visible?”
Hwang Da-bin chuckled when he saw the guy who suddenly started a fight.
Normally, I would have been irritated by the sound of ‘second seat.’
When I looked at Hwang Da-bin, who was not showing any heat, Hwang Da-bin spoke with a calm expression to the guy who was arguing.
“Second seat, second seat, don’t be rude. Because I feel bad when I listen to it. And you? Of course you can’t see it. “Our ultimate goal is not sloppy guys like you, but our senior, Yoon Mir.”
“what?!”
“I guess that bitch… … .”
“Even if you beat us, do you think you will beat Yun Mir, the senior?”
The class 3 students were hurling harsh words at Da-Bin Hwang, wondering if they had anything to do with her, and I tried to come forward because I thought I couldn’t see them anymore.
At that time, Selina came out before me.
“Dabin won’t knock you down.”
“what?”
Looking at Selina, who suddenly intervened, and seeing the guys making expressions like ‘What is this?’, Selina said quietly as she put me in front.
“He will take down Yunmir.”
Why are you suddenly putting me forward?
