Chapter 24
##24fury. Half the world is on our side
“……If this continues, my face will get pierced..”
I thought it would be better to avoid the memorization pouring in from all directions..
You can avoid memorization, but there is no way to avoid the stinging gaze pouring in from all directions..
Glimpse.
Gossip and gossip.
From the moment we entered the main gate of the Blue Dragon Academy, all eyes were on us, and now it seemed like everyone in the building was looking at us..
“Hehehe…….”
Not only did we get the looks of our competitors who came to interview with us, but even the students who opened their dormitory windows and looked down at us..
It was my first time in this situation, so it was very awkward..
“After all, clothes have wings, right? Because a handsome face is not everything.”
“…….”
Next to me, the culprit of all this, Ak Yeon-ho, was walking proudly, enjoying the stares of people..
Although he did not laugh openly because he had the dignity of a noble family, it was very easy to lightly smile with his eyes covered with a fan.…….
“Oh my!”
“Wow! you just saw me!”
The women who faced that eye smile blushed and there was no fuss..
“Hehehe.”
Ak Yeon-ho bowed his head slightly to them with a gentle smile and passed by, gently waving his fan..
As if she had sprayed perfume, there was a sweet, sweet scent in the area where Ak Yeon-ho passed..
‘If this guy had been born in Sapa, he would have become a rare sex demon..’
On the other hand, I walked only looking ahead..
Because he was not used to the public's gaze, his expression was stiffer than usual and his steps were stiffer..
Fortunately, most women only pay attention to Ak Yeon-ho, not so much to me.…….
“I guess they both applied as new instructors.?”
“I like the tall guy on the left more..”
“Look at that cold, pensive expression.…….”
“ha. I wish they would just scold me in class.…….”
……I didn't hear it. i didn't hear anything.
Ak Yeon-ho nudged my side with his elbow and said softly..
“how is it? It's nice for you, brother, to have flower-like cows greeting you like that.?”
“It's good, but it's shit…….”
As much as I get the attention of women, I also get the attention of men.?
Actually, I'm quite used to the majority's gaze and tend to be calm..
However, it was my first time seeing ‘this kind of’ interest, so I was quite embarrassed..
So three days ago.
-In an interview, first impressions are the most important! They say dull black-colored ginseng gets points deducted.!
……I was taken in by Ak Yeon-ho and got all new clothes, including clothes, shoes, and a belt, and even got my hair done..
and today.
I left myself in the hands of Akh Yeon-ho, who left Busan early in the morning, and my suffering began from the moment I left the guest house in the morning..
“I-I'm really sorry... … Can you at least tell me your name??”
It was only the beginning when a woman I met for the first time started talking to me while twisting her body.,
“Brothers! eat some of this.”
“Instead of that, eat this. Our store’s confectionery is more delicious..”
“what? Are you crazy??”
“You must be crazy!”
I had to sweat hard to stop the daughters of rival parties and companies in the street from fighting each other.,
“……Small cooperative. Please pull out just one hair. Or even a small piece of fingernail…….”
I almost had my hair and fingernails ripped off raw by a man with gloomy eyes who I suspected was a disciple of the Mosan sect..
After going through all that ordeal, we entered the Blue Dragon Academy, and sure enough, everyone was looking at us here too..
Since this was something I had never experienced in my previous life, I had this thought again..
“It’s like fucking lookism..”
Ak Yeon-ho giggled and looked back at me at my low muttering..
He looked me up and down happily, as if appreciating a work of art he had created, and said:.
“It's a work of art. It's a work of art.”
“Let's stop talking nonsense and get in quickly..”
“I can’t get in right away anyway because I have to wait in line. This is what happened, let's enjoy it.”
“……What do you enjoy??”
“You can feel the yearning gaze of female students from above! Now, brother, take care of your facial expression. Please smile a little to the disciples we will teach in the future..”
“…….”
When Ak Yeon-ho lowered the fan that was covering his mouth, his beautiful face was revealed. At that moment, the female students who were watching us through the dormitory window burst into laughter as a group..
“Ugh.”
I sighed and shook my head. That's all, but then again, I heard a "keak-kyak" sound from somewhere..
……What should I do??
We stood in line with other applicants who had entered the Cheongryong Academic Hall..
Although the interview attire is excessive compared to competitors,…….
I decided to think positively.
‘Anyway, I succeeded in attracting attention..’
In order to survive in the competition for survival, everything must have at least one advantage..
People who are old or similar are quickly forgotten and left out because there are many substitutes..
In particular, it was necessary to leave a strong impression in a position where only a small number of people were selected from such a large number of people..
“I'm not sure how helpful this face will be in the interview room.…….”
“It's probably more than you can imagine..”
Ak Yeon-ho, who heard my mumbling, grinned and lightly tapped my shoulder..
It was then.
I felt eyes staring at me from quite a distance..
I naturally raised my head and looked at the other person..
A man and a woman were standing quietly on the rooftop of a building in the distance..
‘Are you a student?.’
From a martial arts point of view, the more impressive one was the male student, but the one who was glaring at me was a cold-looking female student..
‘But why are you staring at me like that??’
I looked straight at the girl without averting my gaze..
“…….”
“…….”
And after a while, the female student took a deep breath and assumed a posture that made her look like she was about to spit out a lion's nose..
“What, what??”
I was shocked and covered my ears, but I couldn't stop her soulful voice from echoing throughout the school building..
“It's a match.!”
“……what?”
I looked at her with a blank expression..
Not only me, but all the applicants waiting for the interview raised their heads and looked at the girl..
She was very excited and pointed her finger at me and Ak Yeon-ho alternately..
“There you two! The two passed under the authority of the student council without any questions or questioning... … . Eup, eup!”
“Vice President! it's crazy?”
The male student next to her quickly covered her mouth..
After a brief scuffle between the two, the skit ended with the boy eventually overpowering the girl and going downstairs..
“……what was that just now?”
“It was in the dormitory.…….”
“Was the rumor that there was a crazy girl at the academy true?…….”
It was a time when the applicants were whispering here and there because of the incident a while ago..
“Be quiet.!”
An old man standing in the center of the grand banquet hall shouted in a clear voice. Because it contained strong internal energy, those with weak internal energy frowned in pain..
“Please remain quiet in the school building until your turn comes..”
After saying that, the old man turned his back and looked around as if warning everyone..
I think he was glaring particularly strongly at me... … It must be an illusion.
“But who is that guy??”
“He's the student dean..”
“It looked kind of kinky..”
“Doesn’t it feel like you keep looking this way? Is this someone you know??”
“It was my first time coming here too. How do I know you are the student leader??”
student head?
For some reason, I feel like I can't remember anything.…….
Since I don't remember, it probably isn't that important..
Even while talking with Ak Yeon-ho, the waiting line gradually got smaller..
The interview process involved five people going into the hospital at a time, talking to the interviewers, and then leaving..
“Who is the interviewer inside??”
“Lord of the academy. Adjutant lord. And it's Namgungsu Daehyeop, an instructor at Cheongryong Academy..”
When I asked Ak Yeon-ho, who had been flirting with other applicants (mostly women), he immediately told me the information he had found out..
‘If you are a scholar... … Is it a thousand-armed Avalokitesvara statue?.’
Thousand-Armed Guanyin (Thousand-Armed Guanyin) Statue of Laogun.
He was a warrior who was mentioned as one of the 100 great martial arts masters even decades ago when I was in the religious cult..
To the political faction, the word ‘charlatan’ was the same as the word ‘devil’ to the Safa faction..
The number of Safa people beaten to death by the military leader was more than dozens..
‘I've never seen it in person, but I remember that the disfigurement was quite intense... … . Decades have passed, so things have changed a bit..’
Anyway, he is a person of interest..
Next, Kwak Cheol-woo, the vice-gwanju fireworks.
They probably use the Yanggang style of martial arts, but it was my first time hearing that name..
And the last interviewer is Namgungsu, the three-pointed sword..
He was the son of the Namgung family and a leading lecturer at Cheongryong Academy..
That was my goal too.
“I’m a one-time instructor… … . I wanted to see how well you teach, and it turned out well..”
“I know it just by looking at your face?”
“If you're at my level, you'll know just by looking at my face..”
“……Master. Will I be able to pass the interview today??”
I killed time by telling Ak Yeon-ho jokes..
The interview was longer than expected.
Each group took as little as one meal or as long as half an hour..
We left early in the morning, but since we were assigned a fairly late number (because all kinds of people were sticking around), there were still a couple of groups ahead of us..
‘It's getting boring.’
I turned my head and looked around the Cheongryong Academy..
As expected from the Moorim University Hall, it was large in scale and had good facilities..
In contrast, the level of students and instructors is…….
‘Honestly I'm disappointed.’
Skills are great, but what disappointed me was their attitude..
Usually, disciples of prestigious families or great clans feel great pride in themselves, so they walk confidently and have strong shoulders..
However, this was not seen among the students or instructors of Cheongryong Academic Center..
What can I say…….
“Should I say that they are like those who are trying to get out of a rich family that is going bankrupt?…….”
“……Why don't you swear instead?.”
I felt confident because it was not an insult but an honest evaluation from the heart..
I opened the dormitory window and looked at the students watching us..
“Why won't the numbers decrease?.”
“Instead of stemming, it looks like it's grown longer than before.?”
“Tsk tsk.”
What kind of fun thing is this?.
I'd rather swing my sword one more time at that time..
‘Still, a few people can see the cotyledon leaves.…….’
While looking for students who seemed to have a lot of potential, I found a female student holding a piece of paper in her hand and quickly drawing something..
Sssssssuk.
The hand movements were unusual, but what was more important was that he kept making eye contact with me while drawing 'something'..
That means,
“He now... … Are you drawing a picture of our appearance??”
“I guess so.?”
Ak Yeon-ho smiled and lowered his fan and took a stance..
“……what are you doing?”
“I want to make it easier for you to draw. I have a lot of time anyway.”
“ha…….”
Feeling like a monkey at the zoo, I sighed and covered my face with my hands..
“……I hope I get an interview soon.”
“There's only one group left now.”
It was time for us to flirt and wait for our turn to come..
“Huh? you!”
One of the guys who had just come out for an interview spotted us, widened his eyes, and started walking towards us..
“Oh my! I met these guys well.!”
A large man walking menacingly towards us..
The grim, distorted look made him look like a bandit coming to collect the toll..
Ak Yeon-ho looked back at me and asked.
“This is someone you know.?”
Well, when something happens, they try to pass it on to me..
I have a good memory and recognized the other person right away..
“He was the pig you kicked out of the guesthouse back then..”
I said I was whispering quietly, but it seems like everyone heard me..
“Who said you were a pig?!”
The man who called me a pig snorted like a wild boar and pointed at me..
“Listen carefully! This body is Kwak Du-yong, a divine power sword.!”
When he saw the man shouting with his face wide open, he seemed to remember Ak Yeon-ho too..
“ah… … . The pig I met then?”
The day I first met Ak Yeon-ho.
He was a man who drank alcohol in his guesthouse and caused trouble to those around him, but ran away after being humiliated by Ak Yeon-ho..
“under! These guys still can't come to their senses. It looks like you guys are here to take the entrance exam at Cheongryong Academy.…….”
Unlike before, when Kwak Doo-yong ran away like a wild boar with its tail on fire, today he put a lot of strength into his shoulders as if he had faith..
He smiled darkly, lowered his voice and spoke to us..
“Do you know who is here? This very body…….”
Powok!
A shoe flew from somewhere and hit Kwak Doo-yong in the back of the head..
Kwak Doo-yong, who had been staggering as if he would fall, finally regained his balance and turned around..
“What kind of guy is this?!”
The answer came from the dormitory..
“Get out of the way, you ugly bastard! Because of you, I can't see the insides of the two instructors.!”
The female student who had been drawing our features just now was shaking her remaining shoe menacingly..
“How dare the instructor……!”
Kwak Doo-yong's face turned red from how embarrassed he was..
But his ordeal was only beginning..
Powok!
The uneaten confectionery that flew in from somewhere stuck to Kwak Doo-yong’s shoulder..
This time it was a different girl from before..
“Why are you arguing with people who are quiet?!”
The first two times were difficult, the third and fourth times were easy..
puck! puck! bubbling!
All kinds of objects flew towards Kwak Du-yong, mainly from the female student dormitory..
Perhaps because they learned martial arts, everyone's accuracy was a work of art..
“Why bother the weak instructors?!”
“He's ugly and has a bad personality.!”
“You got a perfect score on the student evaluation!”
“Wooooow!”
……A man was being beaten by female students because he was ugly..
No, that's not the whole reason..
To the students, it seemed like Kwak Doo-yong was coming to us and arguing with us, which is why everyone was so angry..
“It's like the girls of Murim who learned not to watch evil people persecute good people..”
Ak Yeon-ho looked at the students with a proud expression and smiled..
I looked at him with a bewildered expression..
“Am I mistaken in thinking that appearance is the absolute standard for judging good and evil??”
“…… older brother. Appearance is not an absolute standard for judging people. Many factors such as personality, behavior, and way of speaking serve as criteria for judgment. but…….”
Ak Yeon-ho covered his face with a fan and laughed..
“How do you know someone's personality, demeanor, and way of speaking when you first meet them? If you look good, people will look good too..”
“under…….”
“Now you know why I said your appearance was an amazing weapon and that you should decorate it.?”
widely!
Ak Yeon-ho, who folded his fan, raised his head and looked at the female students..
The girls who made eye contact with him said, “Kyaak!” screamed.
“look. They say a handsome man can get half the world on his side..”
“…….”
Just looking at the way he spoke, he seemed like a great master passing on enlightenment to his students..
In fact, I also realized something from Ak Yeon-ho's words, so I was silently lost in thought..
Even while we were standing still and talking, Kwak Doo-yong was being scolded by the barrage of memorization(?).
“100 million! Kitchen! stop! please stop!”
Perhaps because the target was large, everything I threw hit my body..
Now, all kinds of items have been flying not only from the female dormitory but also from the male dormitory..
I asked curiously.
“Why do boys do that? I guess they're just because of our looks…….”
“They just do it for fun. All boys are like that.”
“…….”
