The Villain Professor of Heroes

11 – Advisory professor organization (3)

Yoo Hee-won, embarrassed by the unexpected situation, rubbed her sparkly hand with an awkward smile.

“Student Heewon Yu. Could it be that the academy student tried to use physical force against the professor?”

“Is that so? I was just so frustrated that my hands went out first, but I didn’t mean to…”

“When Auras collide, sparks fly.”

I cut off Yoo Hee-won’s words.

“A hand with an aura can exert grip power beyond imagination. If I hadn’t formed a shield, it would have been a really interesting situation.”

“What if it’s an interesting situation?”

“Experience that for yourself the next time you try something similar.”

Yu Hee-won’s lips twitched slightly.

“But Professor, because you kept avoiding me for no reason…”

“I must have explained it. I don’t have time today, so how about doing it tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?”

Yoo Hee-won stared at me without saying anything, as if there was no room for rebuttal.

However, it seemed that he had no will to step out of the way in front of the lab door.

I thought about forcibly pushing him away, but I thought it would make a pretty funny picture, so I decided not to.

After all, I am an academy professor.

After a light sigh, he opened his mouth.

“Okay, student Heewon Yu. Let’s have an interview. This is what happened anyway.”

I pulled out two cups of coffee from the coffee machine and sat facing Yoo Hee-won.

“Yes, student Heewon Yoo. What would you like to discuss with me? Anything related to defense science is always welcome.”

“Do you remember the story we shared at the entrance ceremony?”

I remember it. It was a subtle conciliation to ask him to choose himself in relation to his advisor.

“Have you thought about it?”

“Did you ask for an interview to hear the answer?”

“Well, what would you do if I told you it was to create the answer I wanted?”

“I know the answer Hee-Won Yu wants. But it will be difficult to hear that answer right away. Because it is not yet the period of appointing an advisor.”

“I know that, but sooner or later. So I don’t think it’s bad to hear the results beforehand.”

“It’s not even the selection period yet, so you can’t just open your mouth, student Heewon Yoo. So, go back and wait. After all, being an advisor is not something that professors do arbitrarily, but you have to go through the process of coordinating and deciding.”

“Then, do you have any children in mind?”

“I don’t know yet.”

“Then can I use some help with that judgment?”

“No. I don’t need it. I already know everything about Yoo Hee-won.”

I’m not going to accept Yoo Hee-won as an advisor.

It’s all because of Han Min-ha.

As a result of understanding Han Min-ha’s personality, it seemed that he would never be able to mix with Yoo Hee-won.

Han Min-ha will not be able to handle Yoo Hee-won, and Yoo Hee-won will not be able to see Han Min-ha.

However, I have to make Han Min-ha an S-class, and in the end, if I had to choose between the two, I had to choose Han Min-ha.

And when I chose Han Min-ha, Yoo Hee-won shouldn’t be my advisor.

This is why.

As they refused in succession, the smile disappeared from Yoo Hee-won’s face.

Yoo Hee-Won, who had a straight face, at first glance felt like an emotionless poisonous snake, and it was terrifying.

A lifeless smile was drawn on her lips as she looked at me without saying a word.

“Thank you for meeting me today, Professor.”

Yoo Hee-won stood up without taking a sip of coffee.

I’ll see you again if I get a chance next time.”

“Yes. If the opportunity arises.”

“Obviously, the opportunity will come.”

Yoo Hee-won’s gaze looking down at me felt warm at first glance.

It was, of course, an illusion.

After Yoo Hee-won left the lab, I was left alone to finish my coffee.

Finally, the student guide selection period has arrived.

It was less than a month after the entrance ceremony, but for some reason, it felt like several months had passed.

The head of the faculty gathered all the professors and gave a speech.

How long the history and tradition of the advisory professor system boasts, and depending on the competence of the advisory professor, a miracle of turning F into S-class may occur, so we must be acutely aware of the weight of the responsibility, etc.

The professors listened to the professor’s words with their ears, and looked at the list of new students in front of them with their eyes.

Of course, everyone’s interest was Yu Hee-won.

Everyone in the faculty hoped that they would become Yoo Hee-won’s advisor.

However, an advisor is not something that can be said to be taken by a professor.

Students can also choose their own advisor, and the advisor is finally organized after considerable coordination.

So far, the most likely to become Yoo Hee-won’s advisor is Yoo Hyun-joo, a general attack professor.

Total attack is very popular because it is the fundamental subject of fundamentals.

Professor Yoo Hyun-joo, who is in charge of such subjects, is not a former job, but a current A-class hero.

However, some professors had a different opinion.

Rumors of Yoo Hee-won talking to me first during the entrance ceremony had already spread throughout the school.

That’s why he seems to think that Yoo Hee-won might break everyone’s expectations and take a picture of me as a professor in an unpopular subject.

“Anyway, please keep all of these things in mind and choose carefully before submitting. Over. Relief preparation!”

I shouted the slogan “PulpfulPulPul” and left the teachers’ room when Professor Jin Se-young approached me.

“Professor. Are you going to select an advisor this year?”

“Well, I’m not sure yet.”

“Think about it carefully. Having an advisor isn’t too bad. It’s not something you can only do one-on-one, and if it’s burdensome, picking out several people with poor grades and nurturing them is quite nice…”

Suddenly, Professor Jin Se-young shut his mouth and stopped walking.

I wondered why, and in front of me, the dean was walking this way with several deputy professors.

“Hello, Dean.”

I said hello and stepped aside, but the dean also stopped in front of me.

“Professor Gyohyun. Look at me for a second.”

“Are you saying that?”

“Then, who else besides you is a professor with the surname Kyo?”

The dean looked around with a warm smile.

Then, the head professors standing behind laughed lowly to please.

“No matter how much I think about it, I don’t think I’ve done much wrong lately.”

At my words, the dean chuckled.

The dean liked this type of gag, so he adjusted it appropriately.

“If anyone hears it, they’ll know that I’m the one who always scolds the wrong professors.”

“Aigoo, dean!”

At that time, the head of the faculty department rushed out of the staff room like a dog with a tail on fire.

“Dean! What are you doing here! Come inside. Warm coffee…”

“No no. I’m here to see the professor.”

“Professor…?”

The head of the faculty looked at me in bewilderment.

Seeing that look in his eyes, he shook his head slightly as if asking, ‘What else did you do strangely?’

“What is the dean doing to the professor…”

“Should I report to you every detail of the interview with the professor?”

The dean said this with a smile, but the head of the faculty department jumped up and shook his head and hand at the same time.

“No! No! Not at all! Professor! What are you doing! Hurry up and take the dean!”

“No. You don’t have to. Go to the dean’s office in advance. I’ll stop by somewhere else for a while.”

After saying that, the dean said see you then, and disappeared across the hallway, leading the head professors.

The head of the faculty, who had been bowing 90 degrees until the dean was out of sight, jumped at me.

“Professor…! What, what the hell? Why is the dean wanting to have a private meeting with you?”

“Well, I’m not sure. Let go of your shoulders. It hurts.”

The head of the faculty, who had frantically shook my shoulder, let go of my hand and stepped back.

“I don’t know what the hell is going on… Make no mistake. And when the interview is over…”

“I will report the results. And if you have any suggestions to the dean, please let me know. I will include those as well for the interview.”

“Uh, would you…?”

The head of the faculty was full of colors and talked to me about this and that.

“I remembered. I’ll try to tell you appropriately.”

“Thank you, Professor. You are the only one!”

When the head of the faculty slapped me on the shoulder and went in, Professor Jin Se-young muttered something.

“You look like a pitiful human being… By the way, professor.”

“Yes.”

“Really, why does the dean want to see the professor?”

“That’s right. I’m curious too.”

It wasn’t hard to guess what kind of story would come out even though he said so.

During the entrance ceremony, the dean had a meeting with the Advisory Committee Chairperson of the Management Bureau.

The advisory chairman is Yoo Hee-won’s father.

‘If it’s easy, I’ll give you an advisor, Hee-Won Yoo.’

Perhaps this is the main point of today’s interview.

After waiting for a long time in front of the dean’s office, he soon saw the dean on the other side.

“I’m sorry about this. Did you wait a long time?”

“I just came.”

“Come in. Come in. Bring me some tea here!”

Shouting to the annex room, the dean wrapped his arms around my shoulder and opened the door to the dean’s office.

“Sit down, sit down.”

The dean smiled kindly and sat down on the sofa first.

“How are you feeling these days?”

“It’s okay. The cough has subsided somewhat recently.”

“It’s nice to hear that. It’s always been a pity to see such a great person as the professor suffer from consumptive disease.”

“thank you.”

The dean laughed and slammed his knee.

“Yes. How are the freshmen?”

“It’s been less than a month, so I haven’t figured it out yet, but as always, it seems to be coming in mostly with great talent.”

“That’s true. Our Grafford is not a place that accepts anyone roughly.”

The dean asked as he hit his knee again to make a cracking sound.

“Children, are you good at shielding?”

“Upper classes have already started to use basic physical defenses freely, and lower classes are starting today.”

“Umm. I see. It seems like there’s a bit of a gap, but that’s always been the case, so there’s nothing I can do about it. Yes.”

As soon as the tea was served, the dean took a sip first and then invited me to drink it.

“Drink, drink. Bellflower tea. It’s good for the lungs.”

“Thank you for caring me.”

He took a small sip of the tea and put the cup back down.

Then, without saying anything, he waited for the dean to open his mouth first.

It was small talk until the car came out, and now it was time to get to the point.

As expected, the dean took a few sips of tea and licked his lips.

“Did you know that the advisory committee chairman of the Management Bureau came during the entrance ceremony?”

“I know. I saw your face at the front door.”

“Yeah. Yeah. That person suddenly said he wanted to have an interview with me, so what?”

“Is that so.”

“They said it was because of Yoo Hee-won. You know what I mean?”

“Student Heewon Yu is the only daughter of the advisory chairman.”

“Yes. It’s strange not knowing. I even made it to the top of the basic evaluation.”

“Yes.”

“I wonder if there was anything special. They acted like it was a public matter, but in the end, they said to take good care of their daughter.”

“I guess so.”

The dean is on his knees! He stroked it and said.

“How is Yu Hee-won?”

“Even if you become a hero right now, you will be able to receive at least a C-class.”

“Oh, is it? Is that enough?”

“Yes. I don’t know about the other subjects, but in my case, the basic form of the shield was formed from the first day.”

“Heh heh. That’s great. I’ll be very greedy.”

We finally get to the point.

“Yoo Hee-won. Wouldn’t it be quite fun to teach such a child?”

“It should be, but I’m sure all the other professors feel the same way.”

“Even so, since it’s the time to select the lead students soon, we’ll be sensitive to each other.”

I just smiled.

“Since the faculty evaluation is also done with the grade that the instructor receives when he graduates, they must be trying to win each other’s good students.”

“Yes. But it has nothing to do with me…”

“Why?

“As you know, defense science is an unpopular subject. Who would choose me to learn a defense shield that blocks bullets at most? Besides, I don’t have the personality to be in charge of teaching someone else.”

The dean rubbed his knee with a meaningful expression.

“Is that so? It could be so. What do you say? That… If you can handle advanced defense techniques… that…”

“It’s a mental barrier.”

“Yes, yes. If what you get after investing a long time is holding on to your mentality, that might be the case.”

“Yes.”

“But wouldn’t this year be a bit different? Students like Yoo Hee-won aren’t common.”

“It’s not that I want to do it, and the students have the right to choose, so wouldn’t that be easy?”

At those words, a light flashed in the dean’s eyes.

After waiting for a while, the dean rubbed his knee without a word and then patted it.

“I got a call from the advisory chairman yesterday.”

“Yes.”

“It’s related to Yu Hee-won… The advisor said something. Anyway, the parents are all the same.”

That’s what he says, but the dean will be afraid of the advisory chairman.

Even if each other’s position itself doesn’t want to do it, you have to do it.

The influence of the advisory chairman within the administration is enormous, and as an academy doing ‘business’ with the administration, we have to bow down to such an advisory chairman.

“I asked to arrange you as Yu Hee-won’s advisor.”

yes. As I expected.

No, nothing to be proud of.

I could have guessed that if he wasn’t an idiot, the words would have come out like this.

“Is that so.”

“Hey, do you intend to take on Yu Hee-won?”

“I’ll have to think about that. It’s something both professors and students have to come to an agreement on.”

“Okay. Think about it.”

After that, the dean threw in some more flirtatious small talk, and I smiled and chimed in appropriately.

After a while, the meeting with the dean ended.

After closing the door to the dean’s office, I decided to forget the contents of the interview.

I wasn’t sure if I could embrace Han Min-ha and Yu Hee-won, who were at odds with each other.
