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

7 – Episode 7 Exciting secret friend.

To be honest, I had a fucking desire to sleep in, but I had to wake up early in the morning to see someone in the hospital.

“I’m sorry I came so early. Did I wake you up by any chance?”

“No, I’m fine.”

This is Professor Cathy.

I still look at me with worried eyes, but to be honest, it’s still a bit burdensome for a beauty with no real beauty to keep worrying about me like that.

“It’s nothing special, I brought some good things for my body.”

As she said that, she presented me with a variety of healthy foods.

The trademark is also very strange.

Ten-year-old red ginseng juice imbued with magical power, alien turtle juice good for rejuvenation, and even a nutritious drink you’ve never seen before.

The heart is really pretty and I’m grateful, but honestly, I don’t fucking want to eat.

It won’t taste bad.

But she was just staring at me, probably intending to keep looking at me until I ate at least one.

“I’ll eat later.”

She tried expressing her will not to want to eat Korean traditional food, but she refused.

“Try one, though.”

“Well, I haven’t eaten breakfast yet…”

“Knowing that, I bought something that would be okay to eat before dinner.”

Yes, she can’t give up her high impression rating just because she doesn’t want to eat red ginseng.

I finally made up my mind and drank a glass of red ginseng juice.

It’s fucking bitter.

Ugh.

“It’s more edible than you think, right?”

No? Not at all.

“Yes, it tastes good just by eating it.”

In other words, it’s fucking tasteless and bitter.

“I’m glad you liked it.”

But it doesn’t seem to have much effect on people who accept people’s good intentions too straightforwardly.

From now on, it would be better to speak directly to Miss Cathy or the main character.

She cruelly watched me in pain, and then brought up her story as if it were the main topic.

“Did I mention I am an academy professor?”

“Yes.”

“Actually yesterday, when I saw that Mr. Sohyeon was an entrant this year, she found the academy’s student department and contacted her family.”

“Yes?”

What bullshit?

I’m from an orphanage? Where is my family

Ah, that’s right.

My head must have been spinning a bit because I ate too much bitter food in the morning.

Of course, family meant not my family, but the body’s family, that is, Kang So-hyun’s family.

Oh my God.

It is a national rule to get rid of the family that exists in the academy where the possessed person appears, but it seems that I have a family that did not exist.

“Yes, that would be the reaction. I’m sorry for doing things on my own. I never thought that my relationship with my family would be so bad.”

I just frowned because I didn’t understand what he was talking about, but it seems he took my expression differently.

“Your sister pretended not to know who you were on the phone and hung up.”

And I felt like I had ruined family relationships without even realizing it.

Let’s think back on our memories. It seems that there was such a thing in the setting book.

Unlike Kang So-hyun, who is the first character to die in this novel, Kang So-hyun’s older sister and father are characters that have appeared several times in the original work.

Even the father is a villain in the early stages of financially putting pressure on the academy by half-villaining that his son who went to the academy died.

Well, maybe it’s something that won’t happen here because I’m alive, but I feel a little like that because I’ve encouraged a bad relationship without even knowing it.

“But it’s okay.”

Why? I originally planned to go straight to the academy dormitory instead of going to my parents’ house when I was discharged today.

It’s an early enlistment, but the academy has a better training center, and it was a decision I made because I thought it wouldn’t work if I didn’t train my pitiful body at all.

To be precise, it’s true that I didn’t even think of the fact that it was my parents’ house with the intention to do so in the first place.

“But…”

It seems like she doesn’t believe that it’s okay, but considering her personality, it’s not as bad as this.

To her, wouldn’t I be seen as a naive boy who hides her pain and cares for others?

“I’m sorry about that, so did you come here with a bari-bari? There is nothing like that.”

“No! It’s not like that. I just want to express my gratitude. Actually, I got that little realization yesterday.”

Oh, it seems that the achievement was as expected.

I hope that you will continue to be strong like this and become a reliable helper for the main character and a support for my comfortable academy life.

“I didn’t do anything.”

“No, it’s really important to me.”

I guess so.

Cache.

As the owner of Mutu, a C-class talent, he is a hard worker who has a natural talent, but has grown into an A-class hero with the help of the chairman and his own efforts.

However, the setting is that you are facing a wall that cannot be overcome with effort alone.

So, she has a complex about her talent, and if you read this far, you might think that she is a character similar to Choi In-ho, the villainous villain in the beginning. Wanted to

That’s why I chose to be a professor, not the field.

Well, the chairman’s influence may have been quite a bit, but in the end, he’s a really fucking nice person.

“It’s really okay. And I’m planning to move into the dormitory right away without visiting my parents’ house anyway.”

“Ah…”

But our professor’s expression darkened again.

Perhaps they think that I will not be able to endure the academy life and will end up frustrated or, to be honest, the end of my lifespan.

But I’m no longer on a deadline.

As a position with more than 10 years of experience in web novels, I affirm that, but in the original academy, there are very few cases where the time limit really dies.

“I want to do as much as I can.”

Of course, no matter what her truth is, the way she looks at me is not bad.

No, you could say it’s very good.

“So, professor, don’t mind me at the academy, just treat me like a cadet.”

A terminally ill student wants to work hard until the end, so I ask him to treat me normally, but he says, ‘Yes! How many people would think, ‘I’ll give you a hard run like the other kids!’.

“Yes, I understand…”

It’s not convincing when you say it with a face that looks like you’re about to cry.

“I have work today, so I’ll just go. Let’s meet at the academy next time. Kang So-hyun, a prospective cadet.”

“Yes, Professor Cathy, thank you very much.”

Please take good care of me. Did we promise to be secret friends now?

*

After I became a challenger who tried hard despite knowing the limits of Professor Cathy’s heart, and she was left as a tragic heroine who kindled the remaining spark of life in her youth, I was able to go through the discharge process smoothly around the afternoon. .

You know what?

It’s a great blessing to be able to walk on your own feet and not be able to turn around.

I realized that fact very painfully over the past two days.

To be able to change from the body I used to do tomorrow to a weak person in one day was a miracle that could be called a miracle.

“It’s been two days.”

Raylan Academy.

A place where I will be staying for a while, and a place that will be the center of the story.

Since it’s only been two days since the entrance ceremony, there aren’t many people yet, so it’s quiet, but this place will be crowded in the future, both in a good and bad way.

A place where a story of growth dyed in the color of youth awaits, and a story dyed in the color of soggy blood awaits.

But now the soggy color will be greatly reduced.

Because I will make it.

I crossed the school gate thinking about the future of this place that no one knows now.

It was the beginning of true academy life.

*

“Oh, I really didn’t know…”

The academy rules weren’t even written in the setting book.

“How do I know if early admission to the dormitory starts tomorrow…!”

Surprisingly, the moment I crossed the main gate of the academy, I was caught by a security guard and brought to me.

Fortunately, thanks to his success in proving that he was going to enter the academy, he was able to avoid being kicked out, and now he was being kindly explained that early entry into the academy would be possible from tomorrow.

The true academy life began tomorrow, ah hahahaha.

Fuck, that’s really embarrassing.

In the end, I had no choice but to call a secret friend.

“Not Mr. Sohyeon… But also Sohyeon Kang, a prospective student…?”

And the next time we met, I put the word academy into practice and I was able to meet Professor Cathy again.

More quickly and embarrassingly than you’d think.

I wanted to die.

*

And I am now at Professor Cathy’s house.

…Huh?

Why the fuck?

It happened just a few minutes ago.

-Have nowhere else to go? Oh, well, it must be hard to go to the original house.

My secret friend looked at me as if he were looking at a runaway teenager, and it really hurt my heart.

-Then, since early admission is tomorrow, how about staying at my house today as soon as possible?

Is this the distance between the characters in the novel…?

Since it will be easy to subdue, is it really the right choice to send a young man who is in his prime to live in a house where a woman lives alone?

Can you speak confidently as an academy professor?

“Would you like to wash first? Or from the meal?”

“Let’s count as little as possible.”

“Yes?”

“Oh, no. I thought about something else for a while, and the word came out wrong. Sorry.”

“No, nothing more to apologize for. You might be nervous. It’s the house of someone I don’t know. Come to think of it, as a professor, I should scold you for not being too vigilant.”

Huh? Is it?

Well, if you think about it, I might be the strangest guy for following all the way to the house of an A-rank hero.

“Why are we not familiar with people? Professor.”

Eunwon, who confirmed each other’s humanity together in the dungeon, is a secret friend with a clear relationship.

“…Professor.”

“…Yes?”

For a moment she let out something dissatisfied with her tone, but she soon returned to her original form.

“Nothing. I’m hungry, so shall we eat first? What do you like?”

“Can you make it yourself?”

“Sure. Even if it looks like this, cooking is my specialty.”

I know.

By the way, the food I do best is omurice.

“Then is omurice okay?”

The Possessor Special.

If you know something, use it right away.

But right after I said it, I thought that this choice might not have been a very good choice.

“…Do you like omurice?”

“Yes…”

Because the reason why she is so good at making omurice.

“I think they really do look alike.”

Because her own younger brother who was killed by the villain was her favorite food.

Really, the more I looked at the setting, the more I wondered how this person could still trust and like humans.

“Hey, cadet Sohyeon.”

“Yes?”

“If it’s not uncomfortable, can I speak in short language?”

“Yes, of course. Professor.”

“And if possible, could cadet Sohyeon talk to me in a flattering way?”

…Isn’t that a bit like that?

I joked that I had a secret friend in my head, but that kind of distance with the professor is a bit…?

“Oh, what did I say? Sorry. I must have gone out of my mind for a second.”

I forgot about it until recently because it wasn’t a very central setting. Her younger brother, who was originally weak, died at a young age due to the villain’s terror.

She was old enough to enter the academy this year if she were alive.

It’s a setting that only came out briefly in a conversation she had with the main character, but it was definitely a setting.

It wasn’t my intention, but it’s a situation where it fits so well.

A hard-working student who is the same age as her physically weak younger brother and has a history of being involved in terrorism at an entrance ceremony?

I would like to take care of it.

But I thought it would be difficult for me to become a family even if I was fine with being a secret friend.

I bet she knows too.

It must have been because he thought of his younger brother unintentionally.

“…If speaking in a flat language is difficult, wouldn’t it be okay to just call you older sister?”

Professor, I don’t think that would be any better…?

I couldn’t sleep well because I had to deal with the professor who asked if I could call me older sister after I washed up.

Ah, of course I slept on the sofa.

…It’s a bit of a waste.
