Cheong Haram enjoyed playing with other people’s emotions since she was a child.
“Ha, Haram. I’m sorry.”
“If you’re sorry, beg with your head on the floor. Maybe then I’ll consider it.”
This is because she realized that the energy from such emotional fluctuations became her own power.
That’s why at some point it became her nature, something she took for granted.
「𝙃𝙚𝙚.」
When she found Cheong Juhwa, who had been expelled from the family, at the entrance ceremony, Cheong Haram wanted to make her a new toy.
Cheong Juhwa must have deep-rooted hatred for the family, so she couldn’t wait to see what kind of reaction she would get if she provoked her.
However, just as she was about to take action, she was interrupted. It was Han Kang-yoon.
「𝘼 𝙡𝙤𝙨𝙚𝙧 𝙬𝙝𝙤 𝙛𝙚𝙡𝙡 𝙗𝙚𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙙 𝙞𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙥𝙚𝙩𝙞𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣.」
Although he stood out quite a bit in the early days of his admission, Han Kang-yoon eventually fell behind and became nothing more than a piece of scrap.
She remembers that the despair Han Kang-yoon felt at that time was quite a satisfying source of nourishment.
But.
「. . .𝙘𝙧𝙚𝙚𝙥𝙮.」
Han Kang-yoon, who returned after the start of the semester, was different.
Even after threatening him with money, which was the most important and sensitive issue for Han Kang-yoon, he didn’t feel any particular emotional disturbance.
That meant he had a sponsor.
「𝘽𝙚𝙨𝙞𝙙𝙚𝙨, 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝘾𝙝𝙚𝙤𝙣𝙜 𝙎𝙤-𝙝𝙖 𝙩𝙤𝙤𝙠 𝙞𝙣 𝘾𝙝𝙚𝙤𝙣𝙜 𝙅𝙪𝙝𝙬𝙖, 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙛𝙖𝙢𝙞𝙡𝙮’𝙨 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙞𝙣?」
The news that came from the main house. It was quite different from what she expected.
Cheong So-ha is definitely not someone who listens to someone’s orders.
As soon as she returned to the Cheong family, she killed two of the elders who had expelled her faction from the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons incident.
Cheong So-ha was a dangerous being that even the elders representing each faction in the current Cheong family were reluctant to get involved with.
「𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙤𝙣 𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙩𝙝 𝙞𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙤𝙣. . . . . . .」
The timing is too perfect to be just a coincidence. Before you know it, you feel like you’re playing on someone’s chessboard.
However, Cheong Haram tried her best to ignore it.
「. . . . . . .」
And so, the day of the midterm evaluation for Comprehensive Combat Practice finally arrived.
🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷
During the remaining two weeks, I took the three Green Cloud Pills in order.
And in the end, I finally achieved it.
【Han Kang-yoon】
▶Level 26
▶Ability Scores
【Stamina: C+】
【spiritual power : C】
【Spellcraft: C】
【Mental Strength: C】
Both Stamina and spiritual power increased by two levels.
It was disappointing that there were no B-rank ability scores even after taking four advanced elixirs, but this alone was a significant improvement for me.
「𝙄 𝙜𝙪𝙚𝙨𝙨 𝙄 𝙬𝙤𝙣’𝙩 𝙗𝙚 𝙥𝙪𝙨𝙝𝙚𝙙 𝙗𝙖𝙘𝙠 𝙗𝙮 𝘾 𝙤𝙧 𝘿 𝙘𝙡𝙖𝙨𝙨 𝙨𝙩𝙪𝙙𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙨 𝙞𝙣 𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙢𝙨 𝙤𝙛 𝙖𝙗𝙞𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙮 𝙨𝙘𝙤𝙧𝙚𝙨 𝙖𝙣𝙮𝙢𝙤𝙧𝙚.」
However, the one I have to face today is a class A student.
Even if they’re not top-tier like Sophia or Hwang Ji-hak, they’re among the top ten students in the second year.
That’s why I.
「𝙋𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙚 𝙙𝙤 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙗𝙚𝙨𝙩.」
Whir.
I’ve already created a shikigami that will be Cheong Haram’s hard counter.
As if to tell me not to worry, the edge of the shadow rippled slightly.
Roar.
Roar.
I’m currently in the Second Public Training Ground. It’s a place created for various hands-on training and evaluations related to individual battles.
“Wow, are we going to compete here now?”
“I heard we can also watch the second-year students’ exams. I’m looking forward to it.”
“Why do you like this so much? We’ll have to face the second years later.”
In the middle of the training ground, there was a duel arena surrounded by spectator seats in a circle.
On one side were the first-year advanced class and the second-year advanced class, who had gathered for the midterm evaluation today.
And I was the only one standing alone.
I couldn’t help it. I had only joined the advanced class last week. I still haven’t had a chance to talk to the advanced class students.
Cheong Juhwa, who was standing far away, approached me.
“Do you not have any friends?”
“. . . . . . .”
“Hey, you don’t have to be shy. I don’t have any either.”
“. . .They’re not here.”
Now that I think about it, there are only two second-year students I know well in the academy. And one of them was an enemy.
I looked at Cheong Juhwa, who seemed bored, and spoke.
“I don’t know about Class B, but do you know anyone in Class A?”
The Class B students who were touched by Cheong Haram’s breath were treating Cheong Juhwa as an invisible person, but she must have had some contact with Yoo Ha-on and the supporting cast of the original story.
However, Cheong Juhwa replied as if asking something obvious.
“I’m not that close.”
It seemed that Yoo Ha-on’s turn had disappeared because I had intervened too quickly.
Cheong Juhwa came close to me as if she wasn’t interested and whispered.
“By the way, is it really settled?”
“You saw the gift I got you last time. No problem.”
“Then can I really kill her later?”
Cheong Juhwa asked with sparkling eyes. There must have been a lot of things that had been secretly accumulating.
But I smiled and replied.
“I don’t care, but she’ll pick me first.”
“Oh, that’s true. Ah, sh*t.”
Even though it didn’t happen here, I had a lot of things piling up on Cheong Haram as well.
Now it was my turn to return it.
“Everyone, take your seats. We will now begin the midterm evaluation for Comprehensive Combat Practice.”
