Possessed an Academy Security Guard

chapter 18



18 – 018. Captain Kim Soo-hyun

The head of the guard rejected Ahn Su-ho’s personnel transfer.

The day before he heard the news like a thunderbolt from the blue sky.

There was a woman walking through the hallway on the 5th floor where the chief of security’s office is located.

– Knock!

The door to the security chief’s office opened roughly, and Min Chaeryeong with a displeased expression entered.

“You’re here.”

A laid-back attitude as if he had expected his appearance. Min Chae-ryeong looked at the captain of the guard, Kim Soo-hyun, in front of her eyes with her sad eyes.

Kim Soo-hyun was a pretty young man in his early thirties. A tall man with broad shoulders. Beneath the bangs neatly swept back were masculine features that would catch the attention of many women.

However, Min Chae-ryeong didn’t like his appearance.

He said, “I knew you would come and I was waiting for you. Would you like a cup of coffee?”

“Kim Soo-hyun.”

“Tsk. Even when we were alone, I would have told you to call me by my title at work.”

“Enough. Why did you object?”

Kim Soo-hyun did not pay attention to Min Chae-ryeong’s day gift. He was used to her cheeky attitude. Min Chae-ryeong chewed her lips as she watched him leisurely grab a coffee pot and cup.

“Can’t you hear me? You asked me why I objected!”

“Why are you asking so urgently? Sit down for a while.”

Seeing him sitting on her sofa and pouring her coffee, Min Chae-ryeong sat across from him without hesitation.

Kim Soo-hyun opened his mouth first as Kim looked at the cup that was rising up.

“You came here for a personnel transfer, right? Is your name Ahn Su-ho? You must have been a freshman in the general department who passed the interview on your own.”

“If it wasn’t for me, I would have passed.”

“Still, it doesn’t change the fact that you acted your own way.”

“So what? Do you have some weight now? Is that why you rejected the transfer application?”

“That’s the reason, but that’s not all.”

“Then?”

Min Chaeryeong is clearly displeased. In contrast, Kim Soo-hyun was consistently aloof. Like a wise man who transcends the present world, he leisurely enjoyed his coffee, regardless of Chaeryeong Min’s attitude of probing for answers.

“Tell me quickly. Other than that, why else?”

“Some of the team leaders, with Team 7 at the forefront, expressed their opposition to this personnel reshuffle. I was just respecting their wishes.”

“Team 7 leader?”

Min Chaeryeong’s expression crumpled. She let out a sigh of her anger from her mouth.

Special Countermeasures Division 7 Team Leader. Oh Tae-seong.

Min Chae-ryeong and her motive for joining the company, he harbored a strong antipathy and inferiority complex toward Min Chae-ryeong, who was winning and winning as her team leader.

Although Min Chae-ryeong has many personal connections behind her, since she became a team leader, she has succeeded in all her tasks so far. Only her skills are genuine.

Since there are almost no cases of unfair use of her or her own personal connections (except for her personnel transfer case like this one), other members of the crew are embarrassed by her Min Chae-ryeong, but they do not openly harbor animosity. Did not

However, only Oh Tae-seong hated Min Chae-ryeong.

Is it because it was easy to be compared because it was a motive, or was there another reason?

He blamed all of her achievements for her connections and parachutes, and would find fault with her in everything she did and interfere with her.

This incident was in the same context. It was not enough to arbitrarily select the successful candidates for the public recruitment, and he rose up against Min Chae-ryeong’s overreach of power by arbitrarily hiring other department members.

Until there, I could understand. Oh Tae-seong being annoying was always a thing.

But this time things were a little different.

“Oh Tae-seong, that guy is blaming me for my work. Did the other team leaders object?”

“Yes. Specifically, the team leaders of Teams 5 and 8 opposed it. Those three are the only ones who have clearly expressed their intentions, but there are probably more team leaders who are silent and do not like it.”

“Now why? Haven’t you all gotten used to finding the guys you like here and there and putting them under me?”

“I had to get used to it, but this time it crossed the line a bit.”

“…… Did you cross the line?”

As if what the hell was that about, Min Chaeryeong asked with her eyebrows furrowed.

“Do you know what place our Department of Special Measures ranked in the future career survey of last year’s graduates?”

“…… Well. Around 10th place?”

“Sixth place. Excluding the Hunter Guild, it’s definitely number one.”

“That’s great.”

“Great. No matter what anyone says, it’s the academy’s most elite combat unit, one of the top five in the world. Even if simple profit falls behind the top guilds, their social status and reputation never lag behind. I think it is a natural result.”

“So?”

“To enter the Special Countermeasures Division, that Ahn Soo-ho is not good enough.”

At Kim Soo-hyun’s firm words, Min Chae-ryeong shut her mouth. The part he pointed out was something she, too, had on her mind.

“Ahn Soo-ho. The lowest superhuman level is E-class. It’s just a chin-up. Even muscle strength and body strength are below the standard. In addition, even psychic powers are simple smoke screens with little fighting ability. Do you think a superman who doesn’t even look like a superman like this would be a good fit for the Special Countermeasures Division? At most, the general and low-end members will be the limit.”

“That’s what I said. His combat power may be somewhat lacking, but Ahn Su-ho has excellent intelligence-.”

“The Special Countermeasures Unit is a combat unit, not an intelligence unit. He doesn’t have to come to the Special Investigation Division if his excellent intelligence is the end. Isn’t it enough to just use it when you want to use it like other subordinates outside the guards you have?”

“You know that the general manager dislikes me. He’s the child I want to have anyway. What’s the point of putting it under me, even on paper?”

“Even if you say it like that, it is an act of exceeding authority in the end. You may think nothing of it, but other operators are different. And-.”

To put it in a long way, Kim Soo-hyun drank the coffee in the cup at once, as if he was thirsty. A warm sensation traveled down his throat and filled his stomach.

“Actually, the matter of overstepping authority and principles is secondary. The most important thing is that the special measures for this personnel transfer and internal public opinion itself are not good.”

Green House, one of the top five prestigious academies in the world.

And the Special Countermeasures Division of the Guard, which is the most elite combat unit of the Green House and has the authority to act in accordance with the police in Korea.

Every member of the team had their own pride or elite consciousness about the special task force. In the meantime, the fact that her E-class superhuman, who did not know where she came from, was standing shoulder to shoulder with them, they had no choice but to twist.

That was exactly what Kim Soo-hyun pointed out.

“It was the three team leaders who stood up directly, but the number who agree with that opinion is by no means small. As the captain of the guard, I can never ignore their opinions.”

“Why do you judge that? You can leave the special affairs department to the special affairs department.”

“Even though my title is the captain of the guard, I also came from a special department. And right now, the head of the Special Investigation Division doesn’t know anything about political matters like this.”

As if to prove that the Special Response Division is a combat unit, the man currently in charge of the Special Response Division was a combat fanatic to the core. Complex office politics and public opinion were beyond his interest.

Knowing that, Min Chaeryeong did not refute. He did not refute, but only looked at the guard captain in front of him with a sad eye.

Kim Soo-hyun, who received that gaze, sighed deeply and suddenly spoke in a kind tone.

“…… I’m not denying your point of view. That member of the crew, Ahn Su-ho, is also someone you have your eye on, so he must have an outstanding corner. But Chaeryeong-ah. Not everyone thinks like me. And you know That there is a limit to how much I can pamper you.”

“A pampering? I’m making progress beyond the convenience you see. But what’s the problem?”

“That’s part of being spoiled. No matter how much results follow, the original principle is to be followed.”

Because it was a legitimate argument, Min Chae-ryeong had no choice but to keep her mouth shut. However, her face showed a hint of dissatisfaction.

She prided herself on her ability. She also considered her connections to be part of her abilities. Where the hell did she go wrong with using whatever was available to her to produce results?

With a displeased expression on her face, she drank her coffee in silence. The sweet taste of her taste with her syrup. Even that kindness of hers seemed savage now.

Min Chae-ryeong looked at the man in front of her eyes.

Kim Soo-hyun’s taking care of Min Chae-ryeong’s convenience was described as indulging. As revealed by the choice of words, Kim Soo-hyun had a goodwill toward Min Chae-ryeong.

Although this time he took the form of directly blocking her decision, if he was the usual him, he would have stood by whether the team leader level objected or not. He must have pretended not to know about the special affairs department, saying that the special affairs department chief should solve it.

This time he went out because the general public opinion was not good, so he just put on his arms.

“The bottom line is that because of Ahn Su-ho’s lack of ability, I cannot allow the transfer of personnel due to the special policy and my public opinion being bad. Is that it?”

In other words, it was said that only the bad public opinion about Ahn Su-ho needed to be resolved.

“Tell Oh Tae-seong and the rest of the team leaders. I will take responsibility for Ahn Su-ho and raise him as a decent superman. Isn’t that okay?”

“Chae-ryeong.”

“After all, public opinion is the problem. Then you just have to settle that opinion. Then you are not dissatisfied, are you?”

“Min Chaeryeong.”

“I am right. And don’t you know If I do it, I am a person who must do it.”

“…… Why the hell are you in such a hurry?”

At those words, Min Chaeryeong’s expression froze.

“…… Are you in a hurry?”

Min Chaeryeong’s gaze trembled like a child who was caught playing a prank. Her Kim Soo-hyun looked at her with a complex face.

He was kind to Min Chaeryeong in his own way. Because he had it, he was worried about her lack of leisure lately.

“You have a strong obsession with talented people.

“…… Did it get worse? I don’t really know.”

“From last fall? Didn’t he start wandering all over the place and gathering people at random? It’s like going into an interview with a general department that I didn’t even pay attention to as an interviewer. What’s so urgent?”

Min Chaeryeong was also an outstanding superman. Even as an individual, she will be able to walk on the Tantan Road with a good reputation.

However, she knew that there were many problems in this world that could not be overcome as individuals.

So she gathered people together. She made connections with high-ranking people, made friends with talented people, and directly gathered those who had not yet bloomed but showed buds, applied for them, and made them subordinates.

What Min Chae-ryeong especially values was her subordinates, whom she raised herself. Unlike her other contacts before her, her subordinates, who had been blessed by her, supported her, and raised her, were more closely connected with her.

Her connections, her colleagues, and her subordinates are her strength, her ability, and the driving force to overcome her difficulties when she encounters them one day. Will be

That was the reason Min Chae-ryeong was obsessed with her talent. And Kim Soo-hyun guessed the reason, at least roughly.

However, even from his point of view, Chaeryeong Min seemed particularly impatient these days.

As if being chased by something.

“Is there a reason? If there’s anything I can help with, tell me-“

That’s why Kim Soo-hyun said that out of genuine concern.

“No.”

Min Chaeryeong coldly refused his favor.

“There is only one thing I want. Send Ahn Soo-ho under me. I will take care of public opinion.”

“You can do it on your own. Public opinion in the company is not something that one person can control.”

“If only the team leader is convinced, the general members below him will be silent.”

“It won’t be easy. As you may know, Ahn Soo-ho is at best an E-class superman. It is impossible to grow him to a level suitable for the special department in a short period of time.”

“I know. You say this even though you know Because I have a corner to believe in.”

If it was the original An Su-ho, that would have been the case. However, he now had only Talisman.

A few days ago, through the report of the vegetable industry, Ahn Su-ho’s power was beyond imagination. Even her subordinates, who were in charge of on-site verification and concealment, said that the traces were reminiscent of war.

Even if she showed only a fragment of her overwhelming force, the rest of the team leaders except for Oh Tae-seong would respect her choice.

“Kim Soo-hyun. You just make a seat I’ll take care of the rest.”

After finishing her words, Min Chaeryeong stood up. It was the attitude of not listening to the objections.

“Min Chaeryeong.”

“I told you. I’m a person who does what I can.”

– Bang!

With those words, Min Chaeryeong left the security chief’s office. A loud sound echoed from the closed door.

“…… Whoa.”

Kim Soo-hyun sighed deeply as he looked at the door Min Chaeryeong had left. Even though her head was pounding from her reckless behavior, she was strangely relieved that she was still her usual self.

However, it was a bit disappointing to call her by her first name, even though she was short-spoken.

‘…… You really don’t call me brother even if you die.’

Looking at the door her half-sister had left, he let out another deep sigh.

***

“So, as a result, a place was set up to test my qualifications in the presence of a team leader level member.”

“Right. The date is Friday, February 28th. It’s the last weekday before the semester starts.”

Min Chaeryeong added that other than that day, there is no date when all team leaders spend time together.

‘If it’s a standard, it’s a standard development…….’

A test taken right after entering the academy. It was a development I had seen in many academy films. Except for the difference that you’re being tested as a member of the guard, not as a student.

“What is the test content?”

“It has not been decided yet. However, it will probably evaluate your combat-related abilities.”

Should I call it misfortune or fortunately?

This side was still no different from an outsider in combat, but depending on the test method, it seemed that it could easily pass using only talisman.

“About a week left. It is unreasonable to raise your body specs with training now. So-.”

“I sharpen and polish my senses quickly with actual compression experience. Isn’t that what it is?”

“There is a notice. You got it right.”

This was also a familiar development in novels. Most of the training when time is running out is practice under the guise of training.

However, the problem was that such training wouldn’t help at all in my case.

What kind of growth and achievement can there be even if modern people who don’t even know the ‘J’ of combat are rough for about a week.

It was unknown how much Min Chaeryeong rated me, but I can assure you that my quality would be much lower than hers. Therefore, a week’s training is likely to go in vain.

“What if there is a better way?”

However, the possessed chair had its own way.

“A better way?”

“Yes. From now on, please prepare the items I am talking about, and give me about three days.”

“What do you need?”

As I began to recite the list of things I needed, her expression grew more puzzled.

“Uh… ….”

After hearing her list, Min Chae-ryeong tilted her head and asked.

“…… Are you thinking of going into a dungeon and training in closing?”

He seemed to ask with dubious doubt, saying that there was no way that could be the case, but I gently nodded my head at the question.

“It’s roughly the same.”

To be precise, I was thinking of going to pick up the talents of the original work that I hadn’t been able to.

Due to the nature of hunters, most of the opportunities exist in unexplored dungeons. In the meantime, Gi-yeon, who had no ability to clear the dungeon, was just sucking his fingers and watching.

However, with the Talisman ability he had acquired this time and Min Chaeryeong’s full support, it was worth a shot.

“You will probably be surprised in three days.”

In three days, Ahn Soo-ho, an E-class superhuman, will no longer exist.
