Became a childhood friend of the mid-boss (59)
“Of course, even if you were to just introduce yourself, you would have a lot of concerns about how to tell about yourself and what kind of conversation you should have when you meet. So, we prepared a question card so that you wouldn’t feel awkward. “I came to take a competitive exam to pass the academy, and suddenly I became friends with my competitors.
To me, it was just absurd.
The test takers seemed to be feeling the same way as I was, as I could hear muttering coming from all over the place.
‘And besides, the 4th practical test is just to relieve fatigue in preparation for the 5th practical test… .’
There’s no way you can believe that.
I don’t know what the plan is.
Nevertheless, the evaluator did not answer any such questions and continued his explanation.
“The card I am holding right now is prepared on the table in the banquet hall. This card contains a question that could be used as a hot topic. All you have to do is talk to the other person using the questions on the card. After handing over 10 cards, all you have to do is ask the other person to sign the card they received when entering.”
“… .”
“And self-introductions must be exchanged 1:1 for at least 5 minutes. “We put this together so that we could build friendships with each other who might be in the same class, but there may be people who ignore our sincerity and just collect signatures, saying it’s a hassle.” For some reason, the table was small.
It appears that this was to prevent multiple people from being introduced at once.
Meanwhile, there was a card box on the table, which the evaluator was holding in his hand.
“Then let me start introducing myself! Mini-games will also be played during the banquet, so we hope that many students will participate. It will not be reflected in the test score, but Geumgang Coins will be given as a prize instead. Geumgang Coin will be useful in many ways when you pass the academy and live at the academy.” Literally, it is truly a banquet.
You can enjoy eating and drinking comfortably, laughing and chatting, and making friends.
I didn’t feel any tension.
No other intention could be found in the evaluators’ words, actions, or eyes.
‘Is there really no intention?’
Even when the detection net is deployed, there is no response, and the avoidance instinct is not activated.
This means that there is no danger nearby.
It didn’t seem like they were planning to attack us while we were off guard.
‘Am I being suspicious…? .’
I sipped my drink.
The sound of music filling the banquet hall is very lively and enjoyable.
Eating delicious food and drinks naturally makes you feel better.
Vigilance becomes dull.
In that situation, the test takers were heading to the table in the banquet hall one by one, looking for a partner.
‘There’s nothing you can’t figure out even if you think about it, so let’s think about getting a signature first.’
I also decided to move slowly.
Of course, the first person to receive a signature was Yeon Ha-neul.
Right then.
“Sky, just like me… .”
“Dogyeonwoo! “Do it with me!”
“Gyeonwoo!”
The moment when I was about to turn to Yeon Ha-neul.
Yongyongrang suddenly grabbed my arm.
His grip was so strong that I, who had not anticipated the situation, had to be dragged by him.
‘… ‘Sky, I’ll have to do it with someone else.’
When I looked back, I saw the light sky reaching out its hand towards me.
She was looking at me with a devastated face.
I think my face will be like that too.
I smiled bitterly and waved my hand at her.
“Hey, it hurts. “I’ll walk it myself, so let go of my hand.”
“Is that so? I’m not good at controlling my strength. sorry.”
We need to get 10 signatures anyway.
Although it wasn’t my intention, I decided to get Yong Yong-rang’s signature first.
We found an empty seat and sat down.
At that time, the assistant carrying the tray replaced the glass with a new one.
“I’ll give you another drink.”
“Oh, thank you.”
“Isn’t this delicious?”
“I know. “It suits my taste.”
“But I can’t fill my stomach with this! “I think I need to eat something for my muscles. Can I do that while I’m eating?”
“… Well, you should eat for your muscles. “I was hungry too, so I need to eat something.”
“It’s meat! meat! “Men are meat!”
“I agree.”
“You know something. Do Gyeon-woo, as expected, you are the perfect opponent for me… .”
“Yeah, no.”
It was a shame to just keep drinking, and it was also time for dinner.
After getting up from our seats, we simply put food on our plates and returned.
After putting the meat I had cut with a knife into my mouth, I took out a card from the card drawer.
“I’ll mix it up.”
“Can you pick me first?”
“okay. Now, take it out first.”
I placed the shuffled cards down in the center of the table.
Yong Yong-rang, who was eating a chicken leg, pulled out the top card.
“What do you think are the three elements of an excellent hunter?”
“What do you think?”

“There is no need to worry. Of course grit! Passion! “Isn’t spirit what an excellent hunter should have!?”
“That’s your answer.”
“And what about you?”
“I am… Talent, background, effort?”
“Hmm, that’s the typical answer. “Still, I thought you would think differently.”
“How could anyone think differently? In the end, you and I are here because of our talent, background, and effort. Still, if I were to add one more element… .”
“Is it grit?”
“Maybe it’s luck.”
“Tsk, but you can’t deny it. “Luck is also an important factor.”
“This is the end of the first question, so let’s take the second question? “I’ll pick it this time.”
“Yes, come! “I’ll take it!”
What do you accept?
Yongyongrang opens his chest wide.
The uniform was cut all the way to the chest, so you could see the chest muscles writhing.
Because the skin was tanned, the muscles seemed to be more clearly visible.
‘… ‘I’m jealous.’
I looked away and placed my hand on the card.
“Where do you most want to visit in Academy City? hmm… .”
“This can also be answered right away. “If no answer comes to mind, shall I speak first?”
“Yes, do that.”
“I want to go to the battle arena!”
“… “It’s just you.”
The Battle Arena was mainly an arena where Academy City academy students competed against each other.
Yong Yong-rang could have wanted to go.
Meanwhile, now it was my turn to answer.
‘The place I want to go the most is… .’
There were many places that came to mind.
However, when it came to choosing the place I wanted to go the most, I couldn’t come up with an answer.
‘The sky is over there.’
At that time, the soft sky came into view.
She was standing and talking to one of the triplets.
Looking at her… .
“I am Heartland.”
The answer jumped out at me.
“Heartland? “You mean a theme park?”
“Oh, right.”
“Although I am a must-visit tourist when coming to Academy City… Just surprising. I thought you might want to go to the battle arena too. Heart Land, Heart Land… .”
That’s right… .
Because Yeon Ha-neul wanted to go.
He said he wanted to ride the merry-go-round.
“good! If you pass, come with me! “Afterwards, let’s go to the battle arena!”
“Sorry, there’s someone who decided to go with me. “Let’s find someone else.”
“Tsk, then that person joins in too… .”
“You’re out.”
* * *
I finished my conversation with Yongyongrang.
I signed Yong Yong-rang’s card, and Yong Yong-rang signed mine.
“Here! “Signed.”
“Take yours too.”
I got my card back.
At the top of the signature line, Yong Yong-rang’s name was written in large, rough handwriting.
Even violating the border.
It seemed like the person signing under it would have a hard time.
“I’ll go find someone else! See you again!”
“Okay, bye.”
Yongyongrang turned his back on me and walked away with brisk steps.
Then, just like he did to me a little while ago, he dragged a test taker he met along the way and disappeared somewhere.
He expressed his condolences to the test taker.
‘Anyway, this isn’t the time to be like this, I also have to look for my next partner… .’
I found the soft sky.
Yeon Ha-neul seemed to be taking turns having a conversation with the triplets.
‘I guess I’ll have to wait a while for it to finish.’
Can not help it.
I decided to get Yeon Ha-neul’s signature later and look for someone else.
I looked around to find someone who had either just finished a conversation or had no one to talk to.
“Are you looking for someone to talk to?”
At that time, someone spoke to me.
It seems that the other person was also looking for someone to talk to.
I turned my head when I heard a sound behind me.
The other person was short, so I had to look down a little.
Looking at the other person… .
“Oh, right. Looking now… .”
I was speechless.
Because the person I was talking to was someone who was trying to avoid getting involved as much as possible.
“okay? “I was looking for you too.”
“… .”
“Good. “You can do it with me.”
Gray hair and purple eyes that seem to have had their genes altered by mana.
Looking at the hair that reached down almost to the hips and the light smiling face, it reminded me of a sheep with fluffy fur and a gentle personality.
But she, Nam Yu-ri of the Yeonsung Nam family, was far from that image.
‘Was he also in this exam room? But it seems like we didn’t meet by chance, but approached intentionally… .’
As someone who knew Nam Yu-ri’s true identity, I was not happy about this unexpected meeting and could not help but feel embarrassed.
Contrary to my feelings, she seemed to be curious about what was going on.
Otherwise, there was no way the corner of her mouth would have turned up.
It was something she habitually did whenever she felt interested in a game.
“I am Nam Yu-ri of the Yeonseong Nam family! You are a person from the Shinken Taoist school, right? “I saw you in the forest, hunting rabbits and causing lightning.”
“… .”
“I heard that when the Shinken Taoist swordsmanship reaches a certain level, mana generates friction and sublimates into electric current, but it was amazing and cool to see it in person. “So much so that I want to know her exact principles.” Nam Yuri released her hands from behind her back and held out her own card.
“Are you going to do it with me? So here’s my card. Can you give me your card too? Oh, by the way, I didn’t ask for your name.”
“… “Dogyeonwoo.”
“huh! “It’s called Tao Gyeon-woo!”
I didn’t know she would approach me first, but now that it’s like this, there’s nothing I can do.
As I had no intention of turning her into an enemy, I eventually had to become friends at some point.
The plan came earlier than expected, but it’s not a bad thing if we get to know each other early.
Rather, the situation was good.
‘Because it seems friendly to me.’
Of course, we must not let down our guard.
Nam Yu-ri is a capricious character.
There was no guarantee that her favor would continue.
We also had to be careful that attitudes could change overnight.
She was dangerous and difficult.
‘The skills are that great.’
Finally, after thinking about it, I exchanged cards with Nam Yuri.
“Okay, let’s do it with me.”
* * *
“Where is Gyeonwoo… .”
I ended up wasting so much time getting the triplets’ signatures.
Yeon Ha-neul set out to find Do Gyeon-woo somewhere in the banquet hall.
It wasn’t difficult to find him.
‘Oh, there it is.’
It just caught my eye.
I could tell where he was by feel.
Could this be the feeling of a childhood friend?
Or is it because whenever Do Gyeon-woo is not around, she unconsciously wanders around looking for him?
I do not know.
‘That’s right, Gyeonwoo. huh.’
However, I was somewhat proud.
I was glad that I was able to find him in a crowded banquet hall without getting confused.
I thought that familiar back of the head over there was very cute.
‘however… ‘You’re talking to someone else.’
Meanwhile, while Yeon Ha-neul was walking, she was able to spot a person sitting across from Do Gyeon-woo.
She was a very impressive woman with long, wavy gray hair and purple eyes.
‘… ‘She’s a pretty girl.’
You couldn’t tell just by his sitting height, but he seemed to be shorter than himself.
It looks small and cute.
Looking at her like that… .
‘Who spoke first?’
Yeon Ha-neul suddenly became curious.
Did Do Gyeon-woo speak first or did that woman speak first?
What kind of face does he have now, what kind of person is that woman, etc.
Even though I knew it wasn’t a big deal, I couldn’t help but be curious.
‘Let’s get closer and watch.’
Of course, it is not revealed externally.
There is nothing good about revealing it.
It just looks like you are interfering with it or it looks messy.
It makes people around you tired.
I didn’t want to look that way.
Yeon Ha-neul decided to quietly approach and check the situation.
“oh! “Light sky!”
“… !”
It was then that Yongyongrang sang.
The rabbit’s ears perked up, startled by a loud noise.
She slowly turned her head and looked at Yongyang.
“Are you looking for someone too? That’s good, I was just looking for it too.”
“ah… .”
Yongyongrang was approaching.
Judging from the fact that he was holding a card in his hand, it seemed like he was trying to point out himself as a conversation partner.
‘Ugh… It doesn’t suit me… .’
It’s a big deal.
Yeon Ha-neul found it difficult to deal with people who seemed to have strong opinions.
She was a much more difficult opponent than Go Eun-bi, who seemed to have many friends.
“How about doing it with me?”
Yeon Ha-neul was inwardly worried.
If I continued like this, I would get caught by him and suffer in many ways.
I had to avoid it at all costs.
‘What should I say… .’
Yeon Ha-neul desperately shook her head as she watched him getting closer and closer.
At that time, I saw a test taker standing on one side and eating food.
‘ah.’
She was a woman with a calm appearance.
Yeon Ha-neul intuitively sensed this.
‘He seems like a good fit for me.’
As soon as I reached that point, my body started moving on its own.
“huh?”
“S-sorry! There’s someone I decided to do it with… . yes?”
“Oh, really? This is unfortunate… .”
Yeon Ha-neul quickly ran to her and immediately entangled her arms.
He then apologized to Yong Yong-rang.
He gave her a look that asked her to please speak up.
“Yam?”
Not really understanding the situation, she just blinked her green eyes.
With a fork in your mouth.
