Academy Silver Gatekeeper

191 – The End, Start Again – 1

Looking back, even the early days of society, which seemed like they would go by at all, passed very quickly.

Moreover, the academy vacation, which lasted only two months, was really fleeting.

Moreover, I was called to various places without being able to rest for those two months.

[Grade A gate occurs near Chungcheong-do – support awaits]

[S-class monster appears in the sea near the West Sea – emergency dispatch]

There was more to it than this, but I tried to summarize it as best as I could.

And there were other things I was responsible for, so of course I was busier.

“Yes! There’s still more you can do! “Wow!”

“I’ll treat that shaky arm and try again, Student Lee Hyeon-woo.”

“Please be a little rougher, examiner.”

“Are you okay, Suhyeon? If you do more than this, you could get seriously hurt.”

“It doesn’t matter how much you get hurt by the examiner.”

“Oppa Seojin. How far has the academy’s standard fallen these days? Does it make sense that you can’t even do this?”

“Wouldn’t it make more sense to ask the students to do that, Lina?”

There, I sometimes meet Kang Hana and Yu Dasom and talk about their current situation.

The team gathered together a few times to conquer A-grade gates and dungeons.

I sat down with Ma Hak-jun, drank tea, and talked about the future situation.

At times, I heard people say that they would meet Kang Min-seong and get engaged first.

In fact, Lina’s parents were so quiet that I felt sorry for them all.

In the midst of this busy schedule, the results of our efforts have finally bloomed.

“Hwaap!!”

“Oh?”

It was a movement that had never been shown to me before.

I was able to get a feel for it, but neither my body nor my magic power could keep up at all.

This student carried out that fleeting attack at the end of her vacation.

“Ugh!”

Of course, the attack could not reach me and was completely derailed along the way.

But it was a good attempt, and the starting point was clearly set.

These two alone were enough. From this student’s perspective, he had overcome a ‘wall’.

It’s like wandering through the fog and finally finding the way.

He did not let me sink in the fog and urged me to move forward quickly.

And this student came out of the fog before the other students.

Now all that’s left is to run on your own path that unfolds before you.

It was a path to one more level of growth after ending a long bronze life.

“You had a hard time.”

“Eh, yes?”

“It’s barely there, barely at the level of a pull-up. Still, I can say I passed.”

As the academy’s vacation was almost over, another person reached silver.

It is true that although we are lacking a lot, we still need to make efforts.

I wanted to acknowledge the fact that I actually stood at the starting line at least once.

One unfortunate thing is that this student was both the first and the last.

The remaining students were unable to overcome that wall even though they tried throughout the vacation.

I’m trying hard, but I haven’t lost my will, but it’s still not enough.

If you elevate them simply because you feel sorry for them, it will be a loss for everyone.

Not only for the students who will be at the same level as them, but also for the students themselves.

This isn’t just a game. It’s a death match where you risk your life.

If you are not good enough in battle, you will not simply lose.

The reality is that you die, your colleagues die, and everyone falls into tragedy.

It’s a shame, but all the remaining students maintained bronze.

Still, there is no hope at all. Anyway, I worked hard for two months.

When others said they would rest or play, they were more motivated.

Maybe this effort now will pay off later.

“I don’t know what happened to make vacation already over.”

Yu Dasom grumbles as he puts his face down on the table.

As a professional, working with a group was more difficult than working with a person with special abilities.

He also said he would rather give up all the affiliates he was planning to hand over.

“But you said you learned a lot. “It’s a good thing.”

Kang Ha-na pats Yu Da-som on the shoulder and encourages her.

Hmm, but I actually have dark circles around my eyes thanks to my clan work?

When it comes to fatigue, Kang Hana seems to be more serious than Yu Dasom.

“How was the examiner?”

Unlike Suhyeon or Rina, whom I met every day.

I couldn’t meet much with Hana Kang or Dasom Yu, who had their own circumstances.

The last dungeon raid on the clan side was two or three weeks ago.

So I guess I was curious about the news here, but in reality, there was nothing special.

“I went to the academy every day except weekends and looked after the remaining students. And I sparred with student Hyunwoo Lee every day. In the evening, Soohyun came and we sparred again. Then, when a request for support comes in, I leave. When I tell them that I got an S rank, they run out without even eating. That was repetition.”

“Wow, the examiner worked really hard too.”

In the case of requests for support or S-class subjugation, there was no need to say that it was difficult.

Rather, it was convenient because I could do it without worrying about getting seriously hurt.

It was much more difficult to spar with Suhyeon or Lee Hyunwoo.

“Ah! That’s right. Come to think of it, I heard that they have been taking care of British students for some time now!”

Dasom Yoo, who had been lying down, got up and cried out.

As she said, she had been observing the level of British students who had been following Emily for about a week.

There’s no particular reason, I’m just curious what the level is.

“How was it?”

“It is correct to say that these are students who were selected after careful selection. It was okay.”

It was evidence that the UK was paying great attention to the joint academy.

What is understandable is that, after the S-class murder, Britain continued to be pushed back and pushed back.

To the point where he put down all his pride in the British Empire and asked for help here and there.

In that situation, she wouldn’t have wanted to fall to the Union Academy.

He would like to somehow regain his shattered pride and take on a leading position at the top.

Therefore, it was clear that aces were selected even among students from their home country.

‘Eight out of 16 people were okay with the screening right away.’

Not just immediate skills, but also future growth potential and personality.

Those eight people were more than enough to give a passing grade. He will do well at the Union Academy.

Looking at it this way, it seems to be true that the British Empire’s jjambap is not going anywhere.

Suddenly I get curious. What kind of students will send to other countries?

It would be great if all students entering the Union Academy were like this.

Well, I don’t want to embarrass you either, so I’ll send it to you properly.

“Is it so? It looks great. The examiner even said that. Umm… Then! How does it compare to our team?”

“Of course. “Our team members are much better.”

You have to compare things to compare. Those are sprouts that have just begun to appear.

On the contrary, our team is comprised of talented people that I have been nurturing step by step for half a year now.

Even the slowest-growing Judasom has become so strong that it can no longer be considered an auxiliary series.

Kang Hana also became much better at using her specialty, ice-type magic.

It’s a bonus that the firepower and maintenance power have been doubled while using the magic power twice.

And the climax among the team members. As expected, that part was Su-hyeon and Lee Hyun-woo.

First of all, Lee Hyun-woo is not only attached to me but also to Lina.

It’s not that I don’t have any talent, but since everyone who got it is S-rank, I can’t help but grow.

As a result, he is now slightly ahead of Soohyun.

‘And Suhyun…’

If you look at the results alone, Lee Hyun-woo has the upper hand.

The main character is getting stronger like crazy.

However, looking at the process, Su-hyun was more fraudulent than Lee Hyun-woo.

It’s not like Lee Hyun-woo, who grabs S-ranks every day.

In terms of training time, I spend more time working alone than sparring.

Still, I don’t know how he does it, but I can see that he is getting stronger every day.

“You’re crazy. “This is a homemade monster.”

One day, Rina said that when she saw Suhyun and I sparring.

When I asked her if it was that much, Rina frowned.

“I heard that not long ago, it was Academy Bronze, or between E and D grades by external standards. But now they are going beyond A grade and aiming for S grade? Go somewhere else and say this. “They’ll say it’s bullshit.”

“Okay? But if that’s the reason, then there’s Lee Hyun-woo, too.”

“… That’s right. They’re not monsters, they’re monsters. Brother. Are they not siblings? Woogeung! Why are you hitting me?!”

“A whip is the cure for bullshit.”

Anyway, our team is doing well. At least you won’t die unexpectedly.

I don’t know if I will encounter the worst enemy, but I don’t think there will be any major problems.

“It was a truly rewarding vacation.”

Unlike the two women with dull expressions and tiredness.

Lee Hyeon-woo was more peaceful and relaxed than ever.

In reality, the person who got rolled and hit the most was probably the person himself.

Wow-

When I check my phone at the vibrating sound, I see Ma Hak-jun’s name.

And underneath it, there was a simple message written.

[Examiner Baek Seo-jin. Just look at it for a second. ]

What’s going on? I rarely called on weekends.

“… Yes?”

What did I hear wrong just now?

“They said they would like you to select students to join the Union Academy.”

Ma Hak-jun blinks his eyes as if there is some problem.

Problem, problem. Of course there is a problem. That I have to do it? Not that one.

“No, Dean? The Union Academy case is still…”

“The main building has already been completed, and the annex buildings are more than halfway up. It will be completed in less than a month at the latest. “It is even more strange if it takes several years to support each country, and it is not just about mobilizing heavy equipment, but also involving all types of magic.”

I forgot. In what way has the worldview here been distorted?

Because there are so many things broken and falling down, recovery is also quick.

“Then, Dean. Grade restrictions…”

“There is none. Because the Union Academy prioritizes skill, not age. Looking at the mood of each country, it seems that only those who have been filtered out in their own countries are being sent. Isn’t that the case in the UK right now?”

When he nods, Ma Hak-Jun clenches his fists and continues his speech.

“It is a world-class educational institution being built in our own country. Should we bring shame to the country there? That will never happen. I don’t want to see that happen. “You understand what I’m saying, right?”

I know. Excessive soup is a problem, but moderate soup is beneficial.

“All right. “I will narrow it down and send it to the Union Academy.”

For now, I’ve filled four positions, so I’ll have to think about the rest.
