Academy Silver Gatekeeper

158 – Promises Made in Vain – 1

Crazy guy. It’s really crazy. Are you still human after doing this?!

I have a conscience, I don’t. If you were able to get this far, have you ever been judged?

Looking at Hyunwoo Lee, who is standing back from afar and staring at me.

I was so shocked and dumbfounded that I sighed without even realizing it.

The protagonist, hard-working genius, talent proportional to sweat, and dual series.

Even if you only have one, it’s a fraud. Lee Hyun-woo has them all.

So, I had already expected that he would be great.

But that training ghost far exceeded those expectations.

A body that has been trained thoroughly to suit each situation.

The overflowing magic power that perfectly supports the body.

Lastly, he showed great skills in not only swordsmanship but also martial arts.

“Hyaaa!”

While swinging the sword, he continues to mix in martial arts.

Obviously, the main skill is swordsmanship, but martial arts is not at a level that can be ignored.

I can guarantee that if you get hit with that thing properly, your bones will at least crack.

All movements are clutter-free and consistent, and above all, the transitions are fluid.

It is the perfect speed, neither too fast nor too slow.

He doesn’t even show any signs of fatigue, so it seems like he’s refined himself to the point where it doesn’t put a lot of strain on him physically.

“Wow, Mr. What? “Are you still wearing bronze like that?”

“I expected it a long time ago. Hey. If it was really Bronze, would it have been killing A-rank monsters?”

“No… I thought I was on a bus or something. Nice to meet you team.”

“Gibberish. “I don’t even have a partner, so how can I get on the bus with that team?”

The noise of students watching the screening nearby can be heard up to here.

He was probably greatly stimulated by Lee Hyun-woo’s overwhelming growth.

There’s nothing special about it. I train, get evaluated, and train again.

Lee Hyun-woo, who only spent that time, is now showing such an amazing side.

He might have his own talents, but that doesn’t matter.

What is important for students now is that there is evidence that ‘effort does not betray.’

He was confident that he could do it if he gritted his teeth and tried harder.

“Examiner! Finally, let’s go for real!”

So far it hasn’t been done correctly? He’s really crazy.

No matter how much they say it’s being reviewed, this one was given an S grade not long ago.

Of course, the ink on the certificate of identification for a person with special abilities has not even dried yet.

In any case, the fact remains that he is a top-level powerhouse.

However, Lee Hyun-woo seemed to have no idea about that and was only focused on the evaluation.

Boom- Boom!-

With an eerie sound, Lee Hyun-woo’s sword cuts roughly inward.

If you think the movements are large, you are greatly mistaken.

The moment you fall over there and try to squeeze through the gap, it will be split in two.

Inside what appears to be an excessively large movement, there is a hidden dagger lurking.

If you go in without knowing what to do, your entire arm could be torn off.

‘Then you can just destroy it without going in.’

Is there a way? Of course there is. To press and press with overwhelming magical power.

It is said that Lee Hyun-woo is in the best condition right now, but the same goes for this one.

“Wow! “eeek!”

Lee Hyeon-woo, who was pushed back by magical power, is unable to overcome it and is pushed back.

Then, it ended up rolling around and hitting the wall behind it.

“The technique is really good, but what if the opponent is strong enough to ignore it? Student Hyunwoo Lee? “If there is a bit of wind in front of a tsunami, it will turn around and go back to where it came from?”

Of course, that’s what I said, but I was also very surprised.

Our main character has grown so much. A remarkable guy.

But after growing this big, the baby has been in Bronze this whole time?

It’s not like a game that can be taught both, so why did you do that?

This is not completely perverted. Or maybe they are really crazy about judging.

If you just look at it as a win, today is also my victory. Lee Hyun-woo did not win today either.

But what matters now is not winning or losing. That’s just a side note.

“Student Hyunwoo Lee.”

Lee Hyeon-woo, who was sitting down, stands up quickly when my name is called.

Then he quickly dusted himself off and came forward and stood at attention.

“Yes, examiner.”

Lee Hyun-woo is staring at me with bright eyes.

Wow. Seeing those eyes full of confidence makes me want to drop you.

It shouldn’t be like this, but ‘Yeah. I failed again today. I almost said, ‘Go back.’

“Silver level screening, I passed.”

“Oh!”

Oh oh! Oh, hey. Even you guys were expecting it.

To be honest, it’s also true that people who fight on equal footing with grade A monsters are held in bronze more.

It’s not Lee Hyun-woo, the burden is too much on the other Bronzes.

“Congratulations. Bronze finally escaped.”

I’ve rarely had anything like this, but especially since it’s Hyunwoo Lee, let’s give him some service.

When I extended my hand and offered to shake his hand, he smiled brightly and quickly took my hand.

– The third eye is activated.

◎ Sub-characteristics

: The heart of the gatekeeper

◎ Details

: It is impossible to firmly block Silver’s door forever.

It is natural that after hard work, someone with the right qualifications will emerge.

Persons judged to be ‘qualified’ are not included in the penalty figure.

– The sub-characteristic ‘Guardian’s Heart’ is applied.

– The penalty gauge does not increase.

What could be more comfortable than that message that there is no penalty?

Oh, that’s right. Now that I think about it, let’s check how many stacks Gojin Gamrae Lee Hyeon-woo has accumulated.

◎ Gojin Gamrae

: The characteristic is activated.

: Subject – Hyunwoo Lee

: Stack 72

‘And. That’s awesome. 72? ‘No, when did you accumulate so much of this?’

I didn’t look after him every weekend, and he was even hospitalized a lot in between.

To be honest, I thought that even just 50 would be a large number, but 50 was even more than 60.

I was able to realize once again how much I had suffered from Lee Hyun-woo.

– The trait target has finally crossed the door.

– After enduring the bitter pain, you will finally achieve sweet results.

– All abilities of the trait target ‘Lee Hyeon-woo’ are permanently enhanced.

I guarantee you. Maybe next year, that kid could be in the same S rank as me.

Even if it is a little later, two to three years will be enough. A monstrous child.

No matter how much the main character is corrected, isn’t that too much of a scam?

Come to think of it, it originally had a morale trait that doubled the training effect.

In addition to the Gojin Gamrae stack, and all the experiences gained from hitting and fighting with me.

Thinking about it this way, if I don’t achieve S rank within 3 years, I might have to beat it up?

“Thank you so much, examiner!”

“What. Student Lee Hyeon-woo suffered more. Now that it’s silver…”

“We look forward to your continued support! Haha!”

… What are you talking about? Now? Why is it being said that I am asking for your favor?

You’re not bronze anymore. It’s silver. And now that I have silver…

“I got a silver medal, but I can spar with the judge at any time! You already know it all! Senior Hana Kang and some other students. And even Su-hyeon! You are taking the time to look at me! “Now that I’ve earned Silver, I’m qualified to spar, right?”

No, it is only provided as an after-sales service.

You don’t need any of that! How much is the Gojin Gamrae stack you have accumulated now!

Are you saying there’s no reason to take extra care of you here? Get away from me! Whoosh, whoosh!

“You look very happy.”

For a moment, without realizing it, I almost answered bluntly, ‘Does this look like a happy expression?’

I thought I finally escaped from the guy who was crazy about judging.

Now, it’s not a review, but sparring that’s going to drive people crazy.

I wanted to say that, but I just held back a sigh.

“It feels good. Because an excellent student was promoted to silver again.”

“It’s silver in words, but it’s actually much more than that. Oh my god, Silver, who catches A-rank monsters.”

Han Ji-yoon giggles and smiles as if she is dumbfounded.

“Oh, right. I almost didn’t mention that. I caught it.”

“Yes?”

“I’m the rat who stole information from the Academy last time. A spy on the villain’s side.”

If you’re a spy, yes. Are you talking about the guy who leaked information about each team during practice?

Thanks to you, I almost got into big trouble that day. I had him hang out with Kwak Hyuk.

“Who was it?”

“I was an academy employee. “I’m not a newbie who just joined, but I’ve accumulated quite a bit of experience.”

“But why did you do that?”

In response to my question, Han Ji-yoon asks, ‘Why would you do that?’

Actually, I already know the answer. Because she felt it all in her voice.

“It’s money. “Enough money to make me forget all the honor and pride I had, and the situation when I was caught.”

“This is why I don’t understand it, but at the same time, I understand it. So?”

“Yes?”

“Isn’t there someone else who caught the wind? “It doesn’t seem like the villain side approached him first.”

There is no contact between the villain and the employees. Among them, there is someone else who planned things.

That guy must have lured the employee with money and used that to pass on information to the villain.

“Shockingly, he is an academy student. No, I was a student.”

“Are you saying the graduate did that?”

“No. He’s an expelled student. I think Seojin knows, too.”

If there’s a student released from the Academy that I know, he’s the only one.

“Could it be, Jeong Yu-hyeon?”

“Yes. He was that bastard. I found this out by chance, while searching everywhere to track down Hyun Soo-jin. Well, thanks to that, I was able to catch him before he had time to escape.”

That sick chauvinist is digging his own grave.

Even so, the social atmosphere is ugly these days due to gates and monsters.

A traitor in this situation? An internal spy who passed on information to the villain? Life is a mess.

“Thanks to you, Irina is being re-evaluated. “I was criticized for taking over Jinhan Group, but it turned out that the damn rat family was running the business.”

Irina is re-evaluating. That’s very interesting as it is…

“Ah.”

Damn it. I’ve been so busy these past few days that something I had forgotten came back to mind.

Perhaps a more difficult ordeal than the battle with that one-eyed S-rank monster.

On one side is the red witch, on the other is the crazy yellow bitch.

There is a promise that those two received from me in return for being quiet.

And it seemed to me that D-Day was not far away.

“Mr. Seojin? “Why are you doing that?”

“… No. Just… “I feel sorry for you.”

I. Because I feel pity.

“Pity? No way. It was your choice. What is pity? You have to take responsibility for yourself.”

I know, right. That idiot is like that and so am I.

I can’t say anything since it was my choice.

Me in the past. What on earth were you thinking when you suddenly accepted that promise?
