The sight of the old tiger in a suit raised some questions.
‘What’s he doing here?’
I knew he would’ve come to see the fight, but I don’t know why he came here in his Chairman Hwang Myeongho appearance.
It didn’t make sense, no matter how hard I thought about it, that the chairman of the board of directors of Eungwang High would personally attend to watch two students fight.
Although one of us is the president of the Jiikhoe, it still wasn’t common for the chairman to deal with problematic children on his own.
‘Did he come here so the students wouldn’t flock too much?’
But I thought that couldn’t be, because there was already Yong Jegun here with his creepy smile, asking me to release the record of our battle.
‘Everyone would already stay away just from Yong Jegun’s creepy smile.’
Even our class kept their distance from Yong Jegun when he was our class’ assistant homeroom teacher.
I’m only thankful that Hwang Jiho still has some common sense left not to talk to me right away.
I thought about greeting him at least, but Hwang Jiho quietly left.
Well, it’ll only be more suspicious if he stayed longer.
After Sung Siwan greeted Hwang Myeongho, he began to talk to me.
He had a recovery item card in his hand.
“Good job, Euishin-ah. What about Idam?”
“He’s inside.”
Gye Idam immediately sprawled on the floor as soon as I turned my back on him.
Although our little relay was stretched out, there wouldn’t be any problem since I confirmed that he was breathing well and his energy waves were normal.
Sung Siwan looked anxiously inside the special gym after confirming that I had no injuries.
Unfortunately, Gye Idam’s disastrous appearance was not immediately visible outside the door.
“…Can I go in?”
“Yes.”
Sung Siwan entered the gym where Gye Idam and I held our battle.
But Sung Siwan wasn’t the only one.
Following him, Yeom Junyeol and Yong Jegun went inside as well.
Was Yeom Junyeol worried because he and Gye Idam are classmates?
I know my good student wouldn’t be affected by this Gye Bastard, but I was still worried and thought that he should keep his distance.
“Idam-ah! Are you okay? …Recovery items wouldn’t be enough. We’ll use one just for first aid. After that, we’ll get you to the nurse’s office, okay?”
Sung Siwan’s flustered voice from inside the gym was heard.
That Gye Bastard mentioned Sung Siwan more than once in his story, and my playable character must really have a broad mind to answer to this bastard.
I thought Yeom Junyeol would also express worry for Gye Idam, but what I heard was unexpected.
“Idam-ah, I’m disappointed.”
His voice was so cold that it was hard to think that it came from the sweet Yeom Junyeol.
The voice I heard was so cold that I thought he would summon Hongryong and attack Gye Idam at that instant.
Sung Siwan immediately intervened.
“Junyeol-ah, do you know what happened between them?”
“No, I don’t know what’s going on.”
“Huh?”
“There must be a reason why Euishin went this far. Idam probably made an unimaginably terrible mistake.”
My student has that much faith in me!
I was foolish to worry about Yeom Junyeol hanging around Gye Idam.
Yeom Junyeol is an excellent dragon who knows how to draw a clear line between garbage people like Gye Idam.
My student deeply trusts me, and I’m a pathetic teacher for not trusting him.
“…I see.”
While I was reflecting on myself, Sung Siwan briefly expressed his complicated feelings.
Sung Siwan and Gye Idam grew quite close, and I expected him to at least say something to me for beating up Gye Idam that bad.
When he saw that I wasn’t willing to reveal the reason for our conflict, he didn’t try to persistently ask.
Instead, Sung Siwan seemed rather worried about me.
“Let’s put off today’s appointment for next time. You look fine, but if you feel pain anywhere, go to the nurse’s office right away.”
Gye Idam was loaded on a transport device and headed to the nurse’s office with Sung Siwan.
After the two, Yeom Junyeol and Yong Jegun appeared.
Yeom Junyeol’s mood seemed to be very low, while Yong Jegun’s expression completely contrasts it.
Although Yeom Junyeol looked uncomfortable, he immediately greeted my classmates like the wonderful sunbae that he was.
“See you tomorrow then, Euishin-ah.”
After Yeom Junyeol and Yong Jegun left, only me and my classmates remained.
They were at a loss for words for quite a while when they saw the injured Gye Idam getting transported out of the gym, but when our surroundings became quiet, they began to speak again.
“I couldn’t see well earlier, but I think he has some serious injuries. I heard the Jiikhoe chairman was strong, but our vice pres must be much stronger.”
“He’s gonna have to take a few days to recover… I dunno if he’s prepared to take on the side effects of recovery items.”
Mok Wooram and Maeng Hyodon’s words turned the atmosphere even colder.
I don’t think my classmates know how to deal with their vice president who just beat up our senior.
‘I’d better thank them for coming here, and then we should all go back. I should buy them snacks tomorrow too…’
Before I tried to say goodbye, Kwon Lena and the others began to defend me.
“I think there’s a reason why Euishin asked Gye Idam sunbaenim for a fight. Euishin is not someone who can hurt others for no reason.”
“I agree with Lena.”
“Vice pres isn’t someone who can easily hurt people.” Read the most updated version of this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at Novel Multiverse – “NovelMultiverse dot com”
“That’s right! There’s no way Euishin did something wrong, right? I’m sure it’s Gye Idam sunbaenim’s fault.”
“…It’s a relief that Euishin isn’t hurt.”
Only Hani seemed to remain neutral.
I didn’t know whether I should appreciate the absolute trust of my classmates or express my concern about their opinions that lack a bit of objectivity.
Well, they’re right that everything is Gye Bastard’s fault.
Hearing from the kids, it seems that not only the dormitory students were here earlier.
“Actually, the commute kids were waiting here too but it got too late so… Professor Ham Geunhyung sent them home so we’re the only ones left here.”
Professor Ham Geunhyung was here too?
He’s already so busy, and I felt sorry for making him come here because of Gye Idam.
“Professor Ham seemed busy so he left Professor Yong in charge. Would you like some juice?”
“Did you have dinner? Have some snacks too.”
My classmates handed over some snacks and drinks and we chatted away for a while.
They seemed to be curious how Gye Idam and I ended up battling each other, but they didn’t ask anymore when I glossed over it.
Before parting ways, Saeum of April said something ominous.
“I heard from a Class Zero sunbae that the Jiikhoe and Class Zero students don’t usually get along well! Ah, GeumChanWangChan sunbaes told me to contact them if we want to form an alliance…”
S-Saeum is still in contact with Geum Chansol and Wang Chansol!
As long as Gye Bastard is the chairman of Jiikhoe, it’s necessary to keep a close eye on the organization, but joining hands with GeumChanWangChan would be too much.
It already takes Jiikhoe’s full power to keep Year Two Class Zero in check.
I’d welcome the offer if only Gye Idam’s life would be more difficult, but it’s unnecessary for me to make Park Seunghyun and the other Jiikhoe members suffer as collateral damage.
And I had other reasons too.
‘I’ll deal with that Gye Bastard on my own.’
Wiiiing…
An air limousine stopped right next to me and opened one of its windows.
Through the open window, I saw the face of Eungwang High’s chairman.
“Student Euishin, are you going somewhere? I’m on my way out so you can hitch a ride.”
Hwang Myeongho appeared at the perfect time.
I didn’t expect this old man to retreat silently, but I thought he’d at least settle with texting me or talking to me using one of his other alter egos.
Well, I was on my way to the tigers’ mansion anyway so I decided to go with him.
As soon as I boarded the air limousine, Hwang Jiho’s tone changed.
Hearing him speak like usual with his Hwang Myeongho appearance was a bit strange, but it didn’t bother me that much.
“Jo Euishin, I can’t believe you were about to go out after such a long battle. Where are you going at this hour?”
“Your house.”
Hwang Jiho didn’t seem to expect me to say that I was headed to his home.
He looked shocked and spoke one beat late.
“…So you have something to say. Alright.”
I have something to say to Baekho-gun to be exact.
“What were you doing there earlier?”
“I came to watch your battle. You didn’t go easy on that student. I thought something would happen if I didn’t come.”
There’s no way that I’d let Gye Idam off the hook, and there’s no way I’ll be beaten by him.
Hwang Jiho was worried about useless things, but I didn’t say anything anymore about why he came because, in the end, he was still worried about me.
I decided to ask something else.
“Why’d you come in your chairman alter ego?”
“Hwang Jiho has some outside activities. I could’ve come to the school, but Ham Geunhyung sent the students home so I judged that it would be best to come in this body.”
There aren’t many things that his 17-year-old self, more famously Eungwang High’s crazyhead, would be doing outside.
Hwang Jiho attended some event in the past as Hwangmyeong’s successor, so perhaps it was related to that.
I wasn’t very curious about what kind of activity Hwang Jiho was doing, so I decided to change the subject.
“I have something to tell you.”
“Say it.”
I told him about the intel I got from Seodol about Mok Wooram’s assassination plan.
This old man is already attached to Year One Class Zero, and we don’t know what else the Oath of the Three Knights is planning to do to Eungwang High aside from this assassination.
“I see…”
Because the tigers’ mansion was close to Eungwang High, we had long since arrived at the mansion while we talked.
However, Hwang Jiho continued sitting down, his face looking dubious.
It seemed like he was waiting for me to say something more.
“What’s wrong?”
“I thought you were going to talk about your battle with Gye Idam.”
It’s a personal matter of mine.
That Gye Bastard annoys and angers the absolute hell out of me, but it had nothing to do with the Tiger Clan.
Even if I didn’t have the power to deal with that Gye Bastard on my own, I wouldn’t let myself borrow the Tiger Clan’s power and be indebted to them.
But I can handle Gye Idam on my own.
“Anything else?”
I didn’t say anything more.
I thought about letting him know that Gye Idam was from the same world as me, but that bastard doesn’t know much about this world anyway and he doesn’t have significant powers.
He’s not worth using so I didn’t want him to get involved with the Tiger Clan.
“Anyway, I think there’s a problem with that Gye Idam so I’ll have to find out.”
I didn’t say anything, but Hwang Jiho concluded that something was wrong with Gye Idam.
Nothing special will come out even if Hwang Jiho investigates, so I decided to let him be.
“Are you gonna go back now that we’re done talking? Eunho and Shinsoo will be disappointed if you leave without having a cup of tea.”
“I’m gonna stop by the mansion.”
“…What got into you? I welcome it, Jo Euishin. Keep this up from now on.”
I couldn’t tell if Hwang Jiho was really welcoming me or not.
Seeing him alight from the limousine and open the door to the mansion, it seemed to be the former.
Hwang Jiho and I arrived in front of the annex where Eunho was staying, and we happened to encounter Baekho-gun. Read the most updated version of this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at Novel Multiverse – “NovelMultiverse dot com”
