chapter 20
Part 20
Seo Hyun-woo thinks about what he should not do, even for a moment.
Instead of Kang Jin-ha, the main character, he leads the flow of the content.
It would not have been an impossible task, given that he had quite strong abilities and even the position of the student council president of Miterichi.
‘But that’s not going to happen. At least you should know what’s going to happen next. That way, even if a variable arises, we can respond flexibly.’
Seo Hyun-woo has no regrets and looks forward to the given reality.
This world was advancing according to a set flow, but the center was focused on Kang Jin-ha.
He was just the middle boss that Kang Jin-ha would encounter, and there was nothing after that.
Above all, I didn’t want to create unpredictable variables and events.
‘Gangjinha is Gangjinha, I have to separate myself. If you pay attention to each one, there is no end in sight. I just have to think about getting a seat.’
Seo Hyun-woo sees Lee Min-seong and the dismantling battle suit and is confident.
Even if he only made good use of the skills of immigration and battle suit, he was able to solidify his base.
Furthermore, it would expand the network structure and make it easier to solve various cases.
“I can’t do performance tests like this. Could you give me another time next time?”
“If you coordinate the schedule with the administration, we will come back anytime.”
“Can I take that as a sign that you can help me again and again in the future?”
Before the performance test, Lee Min-seong had a feeling that he had slightly underestimated Seo Hyun-woo.
Although Miterich is a famous hunter training institution, I didn’t think it would be much different from other places.
However, Seo Hyun-woo broke that prejudice with just one attack, and didn’t he show the skills worthy of Miterichi’s student council president?
“I don’t care if there is coordination with the administration. I would like to help personally, but since I am a student, I cannot move freely.”
Seo Hyun-woo secretly conveys his intentions and shows a faint smile.
Anyway, when the time comes, I was thinking of approaching Immigration personally.
As Lee Min-seong took notice of it, it was just comfortable.
“… you see. I know what you mean. Deputy Chief.”
“Yes, chief.”
“Give my business card to Seo Hyun-woo. Don’t forget to see off the road for me.”
“All right.”
Seo Hyun-woo lightly bows his head to Lee Min-seong and exits the test room with the deputy team leader.
Lee Min-seong looks at Seo Hyun-woo’s back, and then falls into thoughts.
‘If you want to come anytime… it’s not bad. The ability can be copied, so you can use it for various tests. Besides, Miterichi’s position as student council president is quite valuable. Is Seo Hyun-woo also interested in a battle suit?’
***
Indoor training room in Miterich.
Seo Hyun-woo, wearing a combat uniform, was looking at the opponent in front of him.
Baek Seo-yeon was quietly relaxing and relaxing.
Since Baek Seo-yeon had suddenly applied for a training battle, Seo Hyun-woo readily accepted it.
“Still, you don’t come to rank battles.”
“…because there is a high chance that I will lose. I don’t want to be relegated.”
“I am happy too. Because you can’t lose a good coworker.”
Seo Hyun-woo wasn’t just mocking Baek Seo-yeon.
It was said that there was really no talented person like Baek Seo-yeon.
If Baek Seo-yeon was willing, she would be able to perform the duties of both the student council president and the vice student council president at the same time.
That is why Baek Seo-yeon never wanted to give up until after completing Miterichi.
“Are you looking down on me, or are you serious about it?”
“I mean it sincerely. Without you, I have no confidence to lead the student council.”
“You can do well on your own.”
“As you are well aware, I am weak in office work. Only with talented people like you can I become more comfortable.”
“…hmm.”
Baek Seo-yeon did not easily believe Seo Hyeon-woo, but did not ask any further.
It was undoubtedly true that he was helping Seo Hyun-woo in the main tasks of the student council.
Besides, Seo Hyun-woo sometimes asked him to help with office work, so he probably wasn’t lying.
“I am grateful for your time. I made this request with the intention of being rejected.”
“I’m talking about the old me.”
“If you were the former president, you wouldn’t have accepted the training battle. It’s because you only focused on ranked battles.”
“Then you can take it in a positive way. You could say that there has been some trust between the vice president and me.”
Seo Hyun-woo lightly held his right hand and created a golden electric current.
Baek Seo-yeon’s ability was already copied.
At the same time, Baek Seo-yeon also asked for a copy of her abilities, so I was thinking of competing with a lighthearted mind.
“Does the president believe in me?”
“I believe. I can leave my back to you.”
“I don’t know if you need to leave your back.”
“Didn’t you tell me before? i am not god He’s just an Awoken with powers like a thief.”
“But you use your powers better than anyone else. It should be viewed as more of a phantom thief than a thief.”
“Phantom? That’s a funny thing.”
Baek Seo-yeon quickly manipulates the battle watch she wears on her left hand.
At the same time, a beep sounds from Seo Hyun-woo’s battle watch.
[Student Council Vice President of the Student Council, Baek Seo-yeon has applied for a training battle.]
[Are you sure you want to accept it?]
‘I don’t think I’ll lose, but I can’t be vigilant. It’s not that Baek Seo-yeon is holding the position of vice-president of the student body for nothing.’
Seo Hyun-woo controls the battle watch and accepts the training battle.
Less than three months after entering Miterichi, Baek Seo-yeon was appointed as the head of the transformation department.
However, he suffered a losing streak by Seo Hyun-woo, and each time he had no choice but to be relegated.
So, he came to the conclusion that he could not defeat Seo Hyun-woo as he is now, and he obtained the position of vice president of the student body.
[The battle request has been accepted.]
[The barrier system is deployed.]
When the beep is heard again from the Battle Watch, a pale sky blue film is formed and spreads out in all directions.
The barrier system was expanded so that no one could access it except for the students who were conducting the battle.
In this state, even if they attacked each other, only pain would be inflicted, and there would be no injuries.
“No matter how we win or lose this battle, I hope that it will not have any impact on our future relationship. Do you understand what I mean?”
“I know. But if the president loses, I will apply for a ranked battle without hesitation.”
“Great answer.”
Seo Hyun-woo shows a light smile and opens up his abilities.
At the same time, Baek Seo-yeon also opens up her ability and stretches out her right hand.
Then, the silver-white stems started to mix and rush towards Seo Hyun-woo.
Zuzu, sassy!
The gold and silver currents mix and constantly repel each other.
The two simultaneously raise their magical power and increase the strength of the current at once.
The roar grows louder and produces a series of intense flashes.
‘It doesn’t matter if you fight melee, but you don’t have to. In the first place, the attribute system is capable of ranged attacks.’
Seo Hyun-woo moves to the left little by little and does not take his eyes off Baek Seo-yeon.
Baek Seo-yeon was also following Seo Hyun-woo and moving step by step.
I thought the color of the silver crown and silver wings had gotten a little darker.
‘You’ve gotten stronger. You probably trained every day. He also has a very good natural talent. Still, you haven’t defeated me until now.’
Seo Hyun-woo suddenly became curious.
He knew he was strong, but never thought about how strong he was.
Baek Seo-yeon was right in front of me, so I thought it might be a good idea to check her skills a bit.
‘The original Seo Hyun-woo has the ability to draw a draw with Kang Jin-ha. Even that is the result of Jinha Kang’s use of technology that cannot be copied. In other words, if we simply look at the difference in ability and magical power, it means that Seo Hyun-woo is stronger than Kang Jin-ha. How strong am I?’
***
“Whoa… Whoa…”
Baek Seo-yeon breathes heavily and looks at the opponent in front of her.
Seo Hyun-woo didn’t even show any signs of exhaustion yet.
No matter how weak you are, is the gap widening like this?
‘How high is the president standing? No matter how much I attack, it doesn’t work. Even though I have the same ability, why am I being pushed back?’
Baek Seo-yeon clenched her teeth and drew magic from her body.
Then, a silver-white electric current pours out dozens of stems and wraps around his body.
Seo Hyun-woo creates a greater amount of gold current than himself without even moving.
‘I lost. It’s not a fight I can win. I fought with all my might. But the president didn’t even stop breathing. How much magic power do you have…’
Baek Seo-yeon unconsciously draws the current and stares blankly at Seo Hyun-woo.
Seo Hyun-woo was watching himself with a serious expression on his face.
His eyes were sharp, but there was no hostility.
He didn’t feel pity for himself or even mocking him.
‘After all, the president is stronger than before. So the color of the crown and wings have changed. I thought I could get some hints while fighting, but there was no such thing.’
Baek Seo-yeon slowly retreats back and manipulates her battle watch.
There was no point in continuing the training battle beyond this.
There was nothing he could do, and all he knew was that there was a huge gap between Seo Hyun-woo and himself.
[Student Council Vice President of the Student Council, Baek Seo-yeon, has declared surrender.]
[The training battle has ended.]
[The barrier system is canceled.]
“I think you declared surrender too soon.”
“… it was a battle that had to be lost. Don’t you know?”
“It wouldn’t have been bad if I did more. If you think so, there is nothing you can do.”
Seo Hyun-woo first turns to the chair and picks up a water bottle.
Baek Seo-yeon lowered her head and took a deep breath.
It felt like I was facing a wall I couldn’t get over.
Even though I try so hard, I can’t even follow Seo Hyun-woo’s toes.
“Vice President, you seem to be thinking a lot.”
Seo Hyun-woo says so and throws a water bottle at Baek Seo-yeon.
Baek Seo-yeon nimbly grabs the water bottle and raises her head.
Seo Hyun-woo was looking at himself with bitter eyes.
“I lost helplessly, so I have no choice but to think a lot.”
“I know. You fought really hard. So I tried to fight accordingly.”
Seo Hyun-woo approaches Baek Seo-yeon with a grim expression on his face.
Now, I wanted to get a rough idea of how strong I was.
Even though she was only a little focused, didn’t Baek Seo-yeon barely hold her breath?
“But unlike me, you seem more relaxed. There must be a difference in skill.”
“I respect your enthusiasm and confidence. Have you been working hard until now? So don’t give up I am not saying this to ridicule you or ridicule you.”
Baek Seo-yeon, who heard those words, couldn’t think of any words for a moment.
Surprisingly, I didn’t know Seo Hyun-woo would say something like that.
His voice was quieter, so he could tell that he was saying he was sincere.
“I am seeking the position of president. Are you still encouraging me?”
“You don’t have to relate. I’d like to hand over this seat right now, but it’s a bit difficult. It gets a little complicated to explain…”
Seo Hyun-woo felt a sense of presence and immediately turned his head.
A student stood with red hair tied down over the window of the dungeon room.
As soon as the student’s eyes meet with Seo Hyun-woo, he immediately enters the room.
Then he spit out words of determination to Seo Hyun-woo.
“Chairman, I will apply for a Ranked Battle. Choose a time that is convenient for you. I can fight right now.”
