The Academy’s Time Limit in a Novel Written by a Friend

chapter 12



12 – There’s at least one kid at the academy. (1)

Ha.

Cathie, who is a professor in the martial arts department at Laylan Academy and is in charge of the 1st year Seonghwa class this year, started the morning with a sigh.

Since tomorrow is the start of the academy, I tried to cheer up, but it didn’t go my way.

“Why but? Professor Cathy’s expression is dark.”

“Chairman. No, nothing.”

Actually, there were only two of us, so it’s okay to talk comfortably, but she tended to be careful not to let her talk during her working hours.

“Should I guess? Is it because of Kang So-hyun?”

“Yes.”

Yes.

She said that he resembled her own younger brother and that he worked hard every day even though his body was weak.

However, he looked at the heavy dumbbell that he couldn’t even lift every time, tried it, and repeated it several times to get hurt.

This morning, when I was trying to lift a 30kg dumbbell without putting magic on my body and almost got hurt, his eyes went dizzy, so I went to the gym and scolded him.

“That’s how boys are. Even if she knows she can’t do it, there are times when she wants to take on the challenge.”

“I know.”

“You know that you shouldn’t show favoritism during the academy course, right?”

“Chairman, I tend to thoroughly separate public and private life. You know.”

In his mind, the chairman thought that he was worried because he couldn’t fucking do it, but he didn’t say it because he was sure it would be a nuisance.

“You must be worried. Like you said, he’s a good kid.”

“Did you meet him in person? You didn’t do anything strange, did you?”

“Of course not. More than that, who would think he was the real younger brother?”

“No, the president has a tendency to be mean to students he likes. That’s why I was worried.”

“What, even excuses? Professor Cathy, the more excuses you make, the uglier it gets.”

“Oh, it’s not really like that.”

Director Raylan pondered for a moment whether he had teased his precious friend too much, but she soon came to the conclusion.

“Because it’s not~”

“Hey…!”

But Cathy’s reaction was so cute, it was the fault.

She’s 26 and she’s still so cute that it’s a big deal, so she felt like she should take care of herself a bit.

“hahahaha!”

Let’s tease you a little more.

*

It was unfair.

On the precious last day before entering the academy, she was caught by Professor Cathy and banned from the gym for a day until she was cured.

The 30kg guy who finally challenged after knocking down the dumbbells, the nemesis of Blind Heaven, was a formidable opponent, but I was definitely able to seize the victory.

Just when I thought I could subdue him with a little more, a secret friend intervened and stopped our hot duel.

I was momentarily moved by Professor Cathy who interrupted the heated duel between the man and the lump of iron, but on the other hand, I was also grateful.

Yes, it’s a lie that I can win, and I had a hunch about my defeat.

The feeling of weight is completely different from the moment you lift a 25kg dumbbell.

I have been able to know through my experience of knocking down countless dumbbells and facing him.

I know I’m not ready to use him.

If Professor Cathy hadn’t intervened, it would have been me who would have been defeated.

Excluding the damn thing, in the end, before the start of the academy semester, the level I reached was only 25kg dumbbells.

Of course, except for elements such as enhancement and magical power.

It’s not even superhuman, but now it’s a part that I can do if I’m quite healthy.

I felt like my brain was half way off because I was doing too much fitness, but that was until today anyway.

From now on, I couldn’t just keep working on my fitness, and that’s why I couldn’t do it either.

From the outside, I didn’t have any muscle attached to my body, but in the end, I succeeded in becoming a normal person, so it was time to say goodbye to ignorant fitness.

I shouldn’t forget that the fundamental reason I did fitness in the first place wasn’t to become the strongest with fitness, but because of the memory of almost dying because I didn’t have basic stamina while sticking to the way of the possessor.

“Whoa.”

It can be a little tense.

I know that tomorrow is the academy entrance, so I know that I need enough rest, but I didn’t feel like I could sleep well today.

*

Well, a good night’s sleep.

Because fitness moves your body a lot, you can enjoy high-quality sleep.

My poor illusion that I wouldn’t be able to sleep melted away in front of the gym.

Anyway, it was finally the start of my full-fledged academy life.

After getting ready for school, her roommate, Hani In, naturally followed her.

“Hey, Sohyeon, what class are you in?”

Looking at it, it looked like he would go to school with me.

Going to school together from the first day was a feat that even the original Lilac couldn’t do.

How was the lilac? Immediately after the bathing incident, Hani, who was very upset, went to school alone.

“Me? The torch class.”

“Oh, is it cut in half?”

“Really? Where are you?”

“Me? Holy ground.”

For reference, the classes are divided into Seonghwa, Seongji, Seongsu, Seongmok, and Seonggeom.

If it’s Hwa-Soo-Thu-Geum-Sat, but only gold is a sword, it’s just that my friend says Seong-Geum class isn’t cool.

Then he did not answer the question of why the main character is the Seonghwa class and not the Holy Sword class.

You probably didn’t even think about it.

Anyway, originally, he was also in the Seonghwa class, but as expected, many people survived, so the detailed settings seemed to have changed a bit.

“But the classes you actually take are optional anyway.”

“That’s right.”

Apart from ordinances or special events or exams, class does not mean much.

Classes at the academy are like a university where you take the course you want from the professor you want.

Who is a wizard, who is a swordsman, and who is a priest, put them all in the same space and give them the same education?

It sounded like crazy.

For that reason, for most students, the class was not very meaningful except during the exam period or the competition period.

Of course, since Professor Cathy, the homeroom teacher of the torch class, is my secret friend, it has a slightly different meaning.

I don’t know how many times I’ll see my homeroom teacher, but wouldn’t having a secret friend be better than having another homeroom teacher?

We chatted and headed to the main building of the academy where the classrooms were located.

Ah, by the way, since we’ve been together for a month, we’ve become pretty close by sharing snacks and ordering deliveries without the supervisor’s knowledge.

Of course, it was a possible friendship because I still avoid undressing in my room and all squeenship without my permission.

Maybe I’m just like a comfortable roommate to her?

After finding each class and parting ways, I opened the door to the torch class I belonged to and entered.

As expected, the first day of the academy.

I thought I had arrived quite early, but most of the students had already taken up their seats.

The torch.

In addition to Lilac and Cheonyuhak, it was a class where important characters belonged, and in fact, it was a place where the protagonists grew up.

After confirming my seat on the holographic screen, I went to my seat, and unexpectedly, there were already passengers in my seat.

“Oh really~?”

The woman who was giggling and chatting with her classmates was obnoxiously crushing her butt on my desk.

Well, it’s unpleasant, but you can’t be annoyed with it.

It’s not uncommon for me to be unable to be considerate of others while making memories with my friends when I was a student.

I am a caring man.

I’m not going to stand by the ordinance, so I’m going to ask you to step out of the way, but let’s try to say it without getting angry as much as possible.

“That’s my seat, can you move over?”

Oh, but they don’t even pretend to hear.

Is it because my voice was small? It can’t be. The one further away turned her head to see if she had heard it, but there was no way she couldn’t hear it.

In other words, it becomes possible to deduce that she is intentionally ignoring me now and arguing with her.

But cultural citizens don’t get angry about this.

It is said that if you endure it three times, you can avoid murder. Shouldn’t a person have to endure it three times?

“Looks like you didn’t hear that. Friends, that’s where I sleep.”

“Oh, Mr.”

Buddha. Do we have to fill the count when it is obvious that the same result will follow even if we put up with it three times?

I think two times is enough.

Yes, I will be patient.

Why? That’s because even if I die, it’s probably because I’m going to lose.

This world was a place that followed the logic of power, which meant that there was no place for cultural citizens.

“Excuse me.”

However, due to the appearance of an unexpected person, the ass, or rather, the girl, who illegally occupied my seat, jumped up and moved out of the seat.

She tried to give up her seat to the newcomer, in a fawning voice quite different from the one she used to curse at me.

“This is your place to study abroad! Sorry, I didn’t know~ If I knew, I would have sat in the chair! Kyaa~!”

Are you a crazy bitch?

Anyway, it is.

What appeared was Chun Yu-hak, one of our two main characters.

Oh, he was laughing, but he was openly annoyed, as if Cheon Yu-hak had similar thoughts.

“No, it’s not my seat, I have some business with the owner of the seat.”

Huh, no matter what you misunderstand, this bastard is definitely wrong, but that’s my place.

“I cleaned it up for you, so why don’t you sit down?”

Huh?

He looked in my direction and started saying that.

What is it? Who is behind

“When I talk to you, it’s still the case when you pretend.”

Oh, fuck Sohyeon, why are you even acquainted with Cheonyuhak?

“I didn’t see it properly during the entrance ceremony, so maybe it’s been 7 years or so?”

“Oh, yes, nice to meet you, study abroad student.”

Cheon Yu-hak started laughing as if he had heard something interesting.

What’s wrong with this bastard?

“Yes, you should be confident like that. You seem to have come to your senses now.”

What, are you really friends?

“The last time we met, he attacked me and got beaten up. After that, he kept saying respectful words to me, which bothered me.”

I don’t think so.

As I heard Chun Yu-Hak’s words next to me, the hip, which was nervous, let out a sigh of relief when he heard his words.

Perhaps he was worried that if I were a friend, he would be confused by Cheon Yu-hak.

“Anyway, let’s get to the point. Join my team in the Semester Assessment Competition. Other guys may not know, but I know the value you have. I can accept you as a member of my team.”

Oh, butt’s expression turned blue again.

It seems like they think they’re really close to each other as long as they’re teammates.

To be honest, I was a bit surprised because I hadn’t expected such an offer to come.

Wow, is Cheon Yu-hak familiar with me? It looks a little bit like a goblin, but I know people who know each other.

Shiba.

Don’t worry, ass.

“I hate it.”

Because I will refuse.

“It’s still a bit premature.”

“No, you just hate it?”

“Yes, you will need time to think too. You probably want to stick with the one who stands out the most.”

“Student, can you hear me?”

“But you will find out soon. Because I will be the strongest in the end.”

No? You were pushed by Lilac in earnest from around the second year.

“Then think about it.”

Chun Yu-hak said that and went back to his seat.

And then I look away. What’s that ass? He glared at me with his eyes.

It seemed very ironic for someone like me to dare to refuse Chun Yu-hak’s request.

What are you like?

Who the hell is that crazy about Cheonyuhak?

As my butt was about to say something to me, our secret friend, Professor Cathy, opened the door and came in.

“Okay, now it’s assembly time, so all the other classmates should leave. The academy is quite ruthless in this area, so if you are late, you may lose points.”

When she heard that, her ass went out with an annoyed look and shed me.

Oh, the other class?

Then I seemed to know who it was.

There will soon be an unofficial fan club for Lilac and Cheon Yoo-hak at this school.

I glared at him because he looked like a fucking man, but I felt a little sorry.

As a comrade with a terminal illness, I should have sent you a kinder gaze.

What are you talking about?

The proportion is so small that it is a bit ambiguous whether he is just an extra or a victim of a crime, but anyway, let’s say he is a victim of a crime because he is the first character to show a crush on the main character in the original work.

She was originally a character who would soon die at Ramen Academy.

That’s just fucking awful.
