I Escaped the Exile Story Only To Find It Was a Regret Trope

chapter 34



33 – 6# Disciplinary Committee Chair Kang Seolyeon (4)

The self-proclaimed seniors initially had blank expressions.

It was a look similar to being hit on the back of the head with a hammer. Their heads hurt so much that they had no idea what had happened to them.

But that state didn’t last long. As expected of Class S, they soon realized they had been insulted and got angry, trying to teach manners themselves.

This is not uncommon. If they made it to Class S, it means they were called geniuses somewhere. And among them, there were quite a few arrogant geniuses.

The problem is, if they were just arrogant, it would be one thing. There are many arrogant juniors who think they know everything. So they decided to correct their manners themselves.

That must have been the case.

A boy with blue-dyed hair and crescent-shaped earrings. Brian blinked. What just happened?

To put the arrogant junior in their place.

He remembered rushing in with his friends. But then there was a flash of light, and when he came to his senses, he was making out with the floor.

“What just happened?”

“Oh, you withstood that?”

“……!!”

“As expected, even rotten, Class S is still Class S.”

At the moment he saw Yushin sitting nonchalantly, using his friends as chairs, Brian finally recalled.

What had happened to them.

At first, it was good to charge in bravely. They even exchanged blows to the extent that a skirmish was established. It must have been at least 10 minutes.

However, although it seemed like they were pushing forward on the surface.

In fact, Yushin was gauging his opponents while dealing with them appropriately. And the moment he finished assessing them, he knocked each one out with a single blow.

Not the dregs of the Sword Saint Brigade or the trash of Class C.

But geniuses who belonged to Class S, and he was facing three of them. Did he figure them all out in just 10 minutes? Brian felt chills all over his body.

‘The difference is too great!’

Just because one enters Class S, it doesn’t mean everyone has the same talent. Among them, there are those with exceptional talents, like the student council president or the disciplinary committee head.

But they are only a very small minority, most have similar talents. Unfortunately, the newcomer in front of them was one of the former.

In a word.

They had messed with the wrong person.

Yushin, who had swiftly dealt with the Class S seniors, clicked his tongue. Indeed, each one is not bad. At this level, they would at least be knight-level in a fantasy world.

In a typical fantasy world, there is only one criterion for being recognized as knight-level. Can they handle mid-level monsters alone without forming a formation like soldiers?

An ogre is the benchmark for high-level monsters, and below that are mid-level monsters. Mid-level monsters are creatures that even trained soldiers cannot defeat alone.

They have the power to wipe out a small village on their own. And there were three such knight-level talents here.

‘Well, the worldview is different. It can’t be helped.’

The worldview in which Yushin had been active as a hero was a dark fantasy. A very bleak world where dozens of people die every day for all sorts of trivial reasons.

Naturally, proper education could not be achieved in such a worldview. But this place is different. Although they control the students with the harsh logic of survival of the fittest.

They still receive proper education. Yushin thought that the difference in early education made such a difference in the talent pool of the worldviews.

“That movement just now…”

‘Damn! Athena was here!’

Yushin realized he had made a mistake when he heard Athena’s voice mixed with suspicion. Athena and Yushin, or rather the hero of the fantasy world, were comrades who had crossed many lines of death together.

Naturally, they would be familiar with each other’s habits and movements.

Nevertheless, Yushin had unconsciously dealt with these guys too comfortably. Even with specs that were infinitely weaker than his prime!!

Even if they could recognize his movements from his prime, now that he was weaker, they would see through everything one by one. Certainly.

And indeed, Yushin’s prediction was not wrong. To Athena, Yushin’s movements were very familiar. It’s strange, we should be meeting for the first time here.

Why does it feel so familiar?

Fortunately for Yushin, Athena was only feeling a sense of déjà vu. She hadn’t reached certainty yet. Of course, she couldn’t, as his appearance was too different.

And because his specs were weak, Athena saw his movements as clumsy. She was rather unsure. But it wasn’t a good thing.

Previously, she had been desperate to find the hero. Now, seeing Yushin, she had a feeling of ‘maybe?’ Athena recalled those words.

[I’ll send you close to the person you’re looking for.]

At that time, I just thought it was another world. But what if it really meant distance? Ironically, there was only one person present when Athena descended.

‘What if that man is the hero?’

However, Athena shook her head. She couldn’t be sure yet. But if she kept watching over time, she would surely find out someday.

There was no way she couldn’t recognize the hero.

“This, this is all I know.”

Yushin, who had calmed the situation, extracted as much information as possible from Brian. However, in the end, he wasn’t someone with very useful information.

The student council is similar to the disciplinary committee. They divide their territories and are eager to take over the disciplinary committee. So how should we solve this situation?

At least we know that the student council and the disciplinary committee are the triggers. But the problem is, are they both good guys? Or is one of them set as the villain?

‘At first glance, the student council seems to be the villain and the disciplinary committee the good guys.’

To clear the main scenario, it’s important to first identify the good and bad guys. If you stick with the villain for no reason, things will get more complicated later.

While playing the role of a hero, Yushin has met many villains so far. And although they have made various proposals to Yushin, most of them did not end well.

Moreover, since they are usually plotting ridiculous conspiracies, if you stick with the villain, accidents will eventually happen, and I will have to deal with those accidents myself.

“My head hurts.”

Therefore, Yushin had no choice but to be cautious now. But even so, just staying still won’t bring food to the table. In the end, there was only one thing to do.

“Let’s go back.”

“Isn’t the class not over yet?”

“I heard that classes are free.”

In response to Hayoung’s question, Yushin answered what he knew. In Class S, classes, training, and everything else are free. In other words, if you don’t want to do it, you don’t have to.

But there is no freedom without cost in this world. It’s okay not to participate in classes or training, but you have to bear the consequences.

For example, if you don’t train, your skills will deteriorate. And with those deteriorated skills, you will eventually be expelled from Class S. In short, it’s freedom with a catch.

“In short, it means you have confidence.”

“Honestly, unless it’s the principal, I don’t think I’ll lose to anyone.”

Even for Yushin, it’s very difficult to beat the principal in his current state. Of course, even if defeat is certain, Yushin wouldn’t back down.

But apart from that, Yushin wasn’t foolish enough to ignore objective power. Athena, who had been watching Yushin from behind, spoke up.

“You seem quite confident in your strength?”

“Well, yes.”

“Come to think of it, didn’t you say you would guide me through this world? Revil.”

“Not today, next week…”

However, Yushin’s mouth, which had been speaking fluently, began to close slowly. Naturally, too naturally. Like flowing water.

Because he had fallen into the trap set by Athena. Those with quick wits would immediately realize that Revil was the name Yushin used when he was active as a hero.

Usually, when one’s name comes out strangely, they react immediately. However, Yushin showed no such sign. Rather, he accepted it naturally.

As if he had used the name Revil.

An awkward silence descended between Yushin and Athena. Ha-young and Yuri, who were watching, couldn’t understand what was happening.

Why was Athena calling Yushin Revil?

And why did he freeze upon hearing that name? However, there was no time to ponder that thought for long. The moment Yushin was convinced that he was Revil.

Athena had already leaped at Yushin, embracing his body tightly.
