Academy Silver Gatekeeper

186 – Aren’t Vacations Meant to Be Rested? – 2

There is a saying, “Ride the fast current.” That’s exactly the situation now.

[The location for the World United Academy has been decided… ]

[ Work on the Academy site is beginning… ]

[Support funds and construction materials were sent from each country to Korea… ]

I remember it was right before the vacation when it was officially discussed.

And in less than a week, the location where the academy would be located was decided.

After less than a month, the site was cleared and the building began to go up.

Support from magic that will instantly reduce the construction work that will take a huge amount of time.

A lot of construction materials are by-products of monsters that can’t even show off their business cards.

In addition, we have a top-notch support team carefully selected from all over the world.

At this rate, it would have been completed before the end of the second semester.

This also takes that long because the building and site of the Union Academy are huge.

If it had been relatively small, it might have been completed within the vacation.

‘A month has already passed since then. Is this vacation? Fuck.’

I never looked forward to a vacation where I could just relax and do nothing.

Because the vacation season is not a vacation and I am not a student.

However, I thought I would be guaranteed a minimum amount of rest, but that wasn’t the case. Plague.

“Wow!”

One student who was struggling ended up tripping over his own feet and falling.

A month has already passed, but there is no significant improvement.

Although I barely won the competition to enter the academy.

After that, he was no longer able to soar and was moving around the floor.

If you leave it that way, you might face the fate of being kicked out without even completing the semester.

Even if it weren’t for that, no matter how you graduated, you would still be treated very poorly.

“I would have told you. “A person who wields a sword should not be afraid of the sword.”

“S-sorry. I’m trying to adapt, but this… It doesn’t work.”

“Fear is not always a bad thing. Rather, only through fear can one become more earnest and stronger. But excessive fear is nothing but shackles.”

If you take the academy entrance exam, you won’t have to face the risk of death.

There is absolutely no need to do that when checking the basic details.

I understand that these are things you can learn while staying at the academy anyway.

The problem is that the world is not as relaxed as it used to be.

Growing up even a little faster is not simply the way to become more famous.

It has become a way to live without getting hurt and without dying.

“Let’s try again.” This time, please, try without being scared.”

“Yes, yes!”

Fifth attempt after twenty attempts. But the result is the same.

At first, I wondered how I could hold on, but when I increased the speed a little, the same thing happened again.

In fear, my hands and feet become entangled, my breathing becomes disrupted, and I collapse to the ground.

A situation that makes you sigh. No, it’s a situation where I can’t help but feel irritated.

But I took a deep breath, picturing a person who would endure it in my mind several times.

‘Okay, let’s hold on. Still, these students gave up their vacation and decided to stay here.’

Most of those who have not yet made it to silver have left the academy to enjoy their vacation.

Ma Hak-jun himself said that the academy would be open even during vacation.

During that period, they continued to undergo evaluations and gave me the consideration to wear silver.

As expected, there is a good reason for those who fell behind.

There are only a few left in the academy who want to somehow get promoted to silver.

These are friends who have at least some will. If so, I must also respond to that will.

Even if it’s frustrating and seems like there’s no hope, you shouldn’t give up.

“S-sorry. Examiner. I keep…”

“If you’re sorry, try harder. And you shouldn’t apologize to me for being sorry.”

“Yes?”

“Family and friends who support students. “I have to apologize to those people.”

I added more firewood into the flame that kept dying out.

Family, and friends. You probably flinch when you hear that word.

Your family will feel sorry, and your friends will feel ashamed.

If you do this, the fierceness that has faded will come back to life.

“Now, again!”

I hope we meet again and prove it someday.

As the gatekeeper, I have become the kind of person who can send people off with a smile.

“Let’s eat and then, examiner.”

When sending a student back to bronze.

Lee Hyeon-woo, who was swinging a sword from afar, appeared in front of him holding something.

Of course, the academy’s cafeteria is also closed during vacation.

There is no reason to run a restaurant when most of the students are not there.

There are students left in the dormitory, but you have to take care of your own meals.

Therefore, students can go to nearby restaurants and eat moderately.

Or, you can cook your own food and prepare your own meals.

Otherwise, you have to go to the convenience store and fill your stomach.

And I-

“Wow. “You know it’s amazing every time you see it, right?”

“Is it so amazing that I cooked?”

“It sounds obvious. I think I will shout out that I will do a little more training in the time I have to do that.”

Originally, I was thinking of bringing my own lunch and eating it.

I thought about Lee Hyeon-woo and other students and prepared generously.

But my goodness, that Hyunwoo Lee came prepared for lunch.

The quality was such that he even thought he had gotten it from somewhere.

All Lee Hyun-woo has shown so far is that he’s just crazy about training.

No matter how much I think about it, I wonder if I was set up to be good at cooking.

But the lunch he prepared was something that even I could admire.

Thanks to that, he never had to go to work and prepare lunch during vacation.

“I will eat well.”

“Please eat a lot and do well in the next sparring.”

… Are you saying that preparing lunch was a bribe for that?

Feed me well like this and then ask me to use all my strength to spar properly?

If that’s really the case, I think it worked.

“Examiner.”

“Yes.”

“Over there.”

In the middle of lunch, Lee Hyeon-woo points somewhere.

I suddenly wondered why, so I turned my head and there-

“… “That’s not Lina, right?”

“Yes. “She is much less pretty than Irina.”

A blond white woman identical to Lina was walking around the academy.

After that, several men and women followed, followed by others wearing suits and sunglasses.

“Maybe they’re not villains?”

“If he were a villain, he wouldn’t be walking around so quietly.”

I continue eating lunch while thinking, “What on earth are those things?”

Perhaps sensing that this place was popular, people walking around came towards us.

I feel like it’s wrong to even eat lunch.

“Hi. Do it.”

When she saw me and Lee Hyun-woo, the woman ahead said hello.

Thanks to this, what I realized was that unlike what Lina appeared to be, she was really good at speaking Korean.

I say ‘Hello.’ But I can clearly feel that I am slurred.

It occurred to me once again that that’s what a Westerner with blonde hair would do.

‘Still, trying to speak Korean without using an interpreter might be a great thing.’

I decided to eat later and stood up.

After giving her greeting, the woman moved her lips a few times and then she spoke.

“Can I tell you where Mr. Ma’s office is?”

If you say Mr. Ma, it means one person in the academy.

It looks like he’s a guest visiting Ma Hak-jun. What’s going on?

*

“First, go to Korea and meet Mr. Ma. It could be of great help to us.”

“This is for the pride of our British Empire, which has fallen to rock bottom.”

Emily, the British side’s A-level talented person.

She came to Korea faster than anyone from other countries.

The moment when Korea was chosen as the location for the United Academy.

There was a lot to prepare for our students at our home country and joint academies.

In addition, we were able to request support from Korea, which has a relatively large number of talented people.

“This is the place that has seen the most notable activity recently. It will be helpful in some way to our British Empire, which is in a recession. It wouldn’t be a bad idea to interact with the academy dean there.”

“And there are some people who were close to your father. “If you talk about your father, they might take a little more care of you, Emil.”

Emily’s real name is none other than Emily Shaw.

She was the daughter of Bernard Shaw, a British S-class man who had been murdered not long ago.

The country experienced chaos due to the sudden death of an S-rank member.

As villains are active on a large scale, social anxiety is growing.

In addition, the gate and monsters suddenly became stronger, leading to all sorts of difficulties.

In particular, France had to take charge of the gate that the British side could not cover.

As a result, France’s position increased and Britain’s position narrowed.

‘For my father, for my country. We need to make sure we have more exchanges with talented people here in Korea.’

For that reason, even before the construction of the Union Academy began.

Emily took a group of British students to visit an academy in Korea.

The problem is that the vacation time was calculated incorrectly, so it came when there were no students.

‘It’s too late. I should have come a little sooner.’

While thinking about the missed schedule, I am on my way to meet Ma Hak-jun.

Emily took her steps towards that place when she suddenly felt like she was looking at her.

And there she met two men –

‘Strong!’

Let alone why on earth you are having lunch in a place like this.

The most surprising thing was that the two people I met by chance were both incredibly talented.

Especially for the man standing on the left, the energy of a strong man felt faint.

This is the faint magic power that his father once secretly used.

“I think you’re here to see the dean. Is that correct?”

Dean, Dean. Okay. Mr. Ma. Ma Hak-jun said he was in that position.

Emily nodded her head, indicating yes.

Then the strong man motioned for her to follow him.

‘Who is it? Even if you can’t do it, it’s grade A. Or more.’

While thinking about this and that, the group arrived in front of the dean’s office.

Shortly after the man went inside, telling him to wait a moment.

“Please come in.”

With those words, the closed door opened wide.

“What. “Examiner Baek Seo-jin, I didn’t know you would bring me.”

The moment Ma Hak-jun mutters that while looking at the British people.

Emily finally learned the identity of the man who guided her.

‘Hundred? … Hundred! That’s right. I said the last name of the person who defeated the Elder was Baek!’

Emily looked at Baek Seo-jin with surprised eyes.

Who would have thought that such a big man would be eating lunch in the corner of the academy.
