Chapter 50
##50fury. Announcement of final successful candidates (1)
“older brother! It's really crazy?”
“I'm surprised.”
As soon as I got off the stage, I thought I was being attacked by Ak Yeon-ho..
Hwiik!
The guy who jumped up and flew towards me looked like he wanted to grab me by the collar and shake me, but he couldn't do that and put his face in my face and said in an angry tone..
“Cheonmuhakkwan won. What if I make a promise that I can't keep?!”
“Why can't you protect it? I meant it..”
Ak Yeon-ho opened his mouth at my answer. No joke, it looked like a whole melon could fit in it..
“her. This guy was really Dorai.…….”
“Are you not going to the back yard anymore??”
“Just when I was about to poop, I listened to my brother and went in..”
“That's a good thing.”
As I was walking with Ae Yeon-ho and making silly jokes, Zhuge So-young approached us at a fast pace..
Zhuge Soyoung, who was approaching me, paused for a moment and then stood still..
What can I say about that expression?.
He found an interesting crazy guy, but he seemed too crazy even if he was crazy, so he seemed to be wondering for a moment whether he should talk to him or not..
“……Are you going to make the Blue Dragon Academy win the Tianwu Emperor? Are you serious??”
In the end, curiosity probably won out, as Zhuge Soyoung, who had stopped for a moment, approached me and asked:.
“right. Sojeo said he was from Cheonmuhakgwan. Can I ask you some questions later??”
“I can teach you, but... … You will regret it.”
“why?”
“……You will painfully realize that it is absolutely impossible for Blue Dragon Academy to win..”
At her expression that seemed to be telling an absolute truth, I lightly shrugged my shoulders..
“Wow. I don't know why everyone says no without even trying it..”
“older brother. Take a look around.”
At Ak Yeon-ho’s words, I turned my head and looked around..
I felt countless eyes on the three of us, specifically on me..
“What did you just say??”
“Cheonmuje Championship?”
“He was just crazy.…….”
Most of the faces of the students who were whispering were full of bewilderment, ridicule, and anger..
‘Because he's crazy…….’
The situation is a little different, but I've heard that saying a lot in religious circles as well..
But most of the trainees who said those things to me called me by a different name a few months later..
‘I called you a crazy dog.’
……But this time is different.
Unlike the days when I was a demon instructor of the blood religion, in this life I decided to become a one-time instructor and a good teacher..
“All the instructors are glaring at us..”
“Because I said what they couldn't say.”
In particular, Namgungsu was glaring at me as if he had met his father's enemy on the single-wood bridge..
‘what? One fight?’
When I glared at him without avoiding eye contact, Noh Gun-sang naturally stepped in between the two of us..
“you…….”
“Mr. Gwanju. I don't think it's easy to become a good teacher.”
“Heh heh. Is this the answer to what I said?…….”
Noh Gun-sang, with his back behind him, raised his head and looked at the students who filled the audience..
There was sadness in his eyes as he looked at the students..
“……For the past ten years, the Blue Dragon Academy has been at the bottom of the Tianwu Emperor. Do you know?”
“yes.”
“But suddenly they want me to win. Beyond being absurd, wouldn't it be natural to think that they are making fun of themselves??”
“Then, should I go up again and ask for forgiveness??”
“……Are you serious??”
“Is that possible? I have said everything sincerely..”
I grinned, and when Noh saw me like that, he chuckled as if he couldn't stop me..
Then he suddenly spoke to me in a serious voice..
“Even if you are sincere, those words may have made it difficult for you to get a good grade on the student evaluation. To those students, Cheonmuje is an uncomfortable word just to hear..”
“It seemed like that..”
Considering the hostility and anger I felt from all the attention I was receiving, it made a lot of sense..
I antagonized most of the instructors and students today..
But I don't regret it.
Because I expected it to be like this from the beginning.
“But what if I pretend to be so proud and fail??”
“As you may have heard before, I'm thinking of opening a White Dragon Science Museum across the street. Within ten years, my students will be beating up the kids at Blue Dragon Academy..”
“this. I'll have to take that into consideration in your evaluation as well..”
“If you do, I would be grateful..”
Noh Gun-sang, who had been joking with me for a while, returned to his seat at the call of his deputy, Kwak Cheol-woo..
“Mr. Gwanju. You must give a closing speech..”
“……It's annoying, but I guess I'll have to go. See you later then.”
“yes. See you next time.”
Since my sparring was the last, after that it was the closing ceremony..
However, the students were unable to properly concentrate on the closing ceremony..
Most of their eyes were on me and they kept whispering among themselves..
“These guys! Can't you concentrate?!”
Normally, student dean Mae Geuk-ryeom would have taken control of the chaotic atmosphere, but now it was not a situation where even Mae Geuk-ryeom could control it..
“If this continues, my brother’s face will get pierced..”
“Get used to it. Because you will experience this often in the future. That's it. If you fail along with me, I won’t become an instructor at Baekryong Academy.?”
“Why are you grouping them together? You might fall alone, and I might catch up.!”
“Tsk tsk. make sense.”
After all the events were over, I left the Cheongryong Academic Center with Ak Yeon-ho, who was somehow more excited than me..
“The results won't come out until a few days later, so let's go get a drink. Oh, Jegal Soje will also go with you.?”
Since I was nearby, I asked Zhuge Xiaoying without much expectation..
He thought for a moment while tightly hugging the book in Zhuge Xiaoying's arms, and then nodded slightly..
“……great. I'm not good at drinking alcohol.”
At her words, Ak Yeon-ho’s tired expression began to come to life..
“Jegal Soje. I know all the good restaurants around here. Is there a food you want to eat??”
“Ah, yes… … . I eat anything well.”
When Yeon-ho spoke to Zhuge So-young in a greasy voice, Zhuge So-young looked very uncomfortable..
Yeonho. I was wrong this time too.
“Ah, but what about the sunrise??”
Suddenly, I thought of Myeong Il-oh lying in the hospital, but at that moment, Ak Yeon-ho waved his hand..
“What can a sick person do? Let's go have a drink together..”
“But before I go, at least see your face…….”
“What are you doing with the faces you see every day? They say there are no seats if you go late on a day like today..”
“but.”
When I thought about it, I realized that was true, so we followed Ae Yeon-ho and went for a drink without saying anything..
* * *
a few days later.
In front of the main gate of Cheongryong Academic Hall.
Jamryong Banjeom (潛龍飯店) is known to students as a cheap and reasonably priced restaurant with plenty of portions.).
“Did you hear that among the new instructor applicants this year, there was one idiot??”
Time when there are less customers.
The owner of Jamryong Banjeom and Jeomsoi were having a late lunch with the accompaniment of a rumor they had recently heard from customers..
“I heard you said you were going to make Blue Dragon School win the Heavenly War Championship in front of everyone.?”
“What is winning? I'll be lucky if I don't come in last place again this year..”
“Sure. Last year, the difference in scores was double that of Baekho School..”
“It wasn't even a thing at the time. The guys who competed in triumph, saying it was different this year, came back looking like mutts who got caught in the rain... … . Well, a few people cried?”
“I remember. They walk around in this neighborhood acting like they're showing off, and when they go out, they just get ripped off..”
“That's what I said.”
Although most of Jamryong Banjeom's sales come from Cheongryong Academy students, they have no qualms about gossiping about students behind their backs..
Jeomsoi asked while slurping down his noodles..
“So that idiot stuck.?”
“The results will be announced tomorrow... … well. I wonder if they will label such a braggart.”
“You never know. You can attach it as if you were holding a rope..”
“Tsk tsk. If they hire instructors because of those words, wouldn't Cheongryong Academic Center have really gone too far?.”
After finishing the meal, the restaurant owner lit a cigarette and exhaled a long puff of smoke..
Jeomsoi, with small eyes, looked at his owner and said,.
“Still, I guess he said that because he was confident in his skills.?”
“First of all, what can't you say to stick with it? If you are an instructor at Cheongryong Academic Center, Wolbong is also good... … . These days, the kids there don't have much motivation, so you can just teach them casually..”
“Lord, master, elder…….”
“Ah, I also want to make money comfortably..”
The owner of Jamryong Spot exhaled a long stream of smoke toward the ceiling..
Because of that, he couldn't see Jeomsoi's pale expression..
“Owner, elderly man…….”
“Honestly, I wonder how many more years that Cheongryong Academy will last. I guess I'll give up my business here soon and look for something else... … . hmm? Why do you look like that? what? back? Look behind you?”
Jeomsoy pursed his mouth a moment ago and said, ‘Back! He was silently shouting 'Back!', but by the time the owner realized that fact, it was already too late..
“You're resting, but I think we got the timing wrong..”
“Hehehe!”
The moment a cold voice was heard from behind, the owner of the restaurant hurriedly put out the cigarette and stood up like a flash of lightning and looked back..
Standing there were student council executives who were regulars at Jamryong Banjeom..
Cold sweat broke out on the spot owner's forehead when he saw Dok Go-jun's cold face..
“Ah, my student council members… … . When did you come??”
“I came here when you were saying that we are kids who don't have motivation and can be taught in a haphazard manner..”
Fucked.!
With that thought in mind, the owner of the restaurant immediately folded his waist in half and apologized..
“I made a mistake. I must have gone out of my mind after playing accompaniment since daytime... … . As an apology, I will not accept payment for the food you will eat today.!”
“Do you see us as beggars??”
“Well, don’t you know that’s not what it means?…….”
Dok Go-jun clicked his tongue when he saw the owner of the guest house with a tearful expression on his face..
In fact, everywhere I go these days, I hear similar stories, so it's a hassle to change seats..
“2Are there seats on the floor??”
“Oh, of course! Jang Sam-ah, what are you doing? I won't guide you quickly!”
“yes!”
Jeomsoi hurriedly went up to the second floor and wiped the table with a dishcloth, and the restaurant owner went into the kitchen, wiped Susu, who was resting, and started cooking himself..
“White Water Dragon. Wherever you go these days, there's only talk about that guy..”
Dok Go-jun sat down and sighed softly. Student council executives sat around him..
A few days ago, all new instructor practical exams were completed, and tomorrow was the day when the final results were finally announced..
“It was such a shocking declaration of war. It's sure to spread rumors throughout the city..”
Everyone nodded at Dang Soso’s words. Jeomsoi, who has small eyes, looked at the students and brought them food..
“I'm going to make you win the Cheonmuje.…….”
“The rumor has probably spread to other schools by now..”
“ha…….”
I saw embarrassed expressions sighing here and there..
Baek Soo-ryong made a bombshell announcement on the off-stage in front of everyone that he would make Cheongryong Academy win the Cheonmuje Championship, and the student council was in an awkward situation..
“You have to make promises you can keep. What is winning, winning?.”
“Even if you say such nonsense, points will be deducted from the student evaluation.…….”
“Provocation should be done in moderation. Even the student council is being criticized, right?.”
Winning the Cheonmuje Championship was too vain a goal to be considered a statement from a new instructor who proudly expressed his aspirations to join the company..
It was also a significant burden for the student council, which had similar but much more realistic goals..
There are already some students who mock the student council by tying it to Baek Su-ryong.…….
At that time, Dok Go-jun opened his mouth..
“I don't think we can win the Tianwu Emperor.”
“…….”
The atmosphere suddenly became solemn..
Dok Go-jun continued speaking, turning his head out the window as if he did not care about the atmosphere..
“……This is my third time participating this year..”
Dok Go-Jun was a late poet so talented that Dok Go-Se was said to be the best technique in the last hundred years, so he rarely participated in Cheonmu-Je as a representative of Cheongryonghakgwan from his freshman year..
three participations.
The result is overwhelmingly the lowest every year..
I have always felt the gap between the other five universities and have seen seniors get frustrated in front of that huge wall..
But won?
No matter how idealistic Dok Go-Jun was, it was a goal he could not dream of..
‘I might be able to deal with other academic institutions somehow... … The Cheonmuhakkan cannot be surpassed..’
If the last place every year naturally belonged to Cheongryonghakkwan, then the championship every year naturally belonged to Cheonmuhakkwan..
A place where talented children born from good families can only enter after much effort..
The goal of all late indexes born from the political faction martial arts..
Cheonmuhakgwan, the best in the world).
Dok Go-jun clenched his fists as he recalled the late Jisoos he met there..
I still grind my teeth when I think of the disrespect and humiliation I suffered back then..
Dok Go-jun looked at the executives with slightly bloodshot eyes..
“The executives probably have similar thoughts as me. As long as there is the Tianmu School, it is impossible for any other school to win the Tianwu Festival. Even if the other four major schools join forces... … It must be difficult.”
The few first-year students in the student council thought, 'Is it really that bad?' The expression was like that, but the 2nd and 3rd graders who had experienced the Cheonmuje first-hand nodded with clouded faces..
Dok Go-jun continued speaking.
“but.”
Even though he knew that winning was impossible, the declaration that Baek Soo-ryong made a few days ago on the off-stage remained in Dok Go-jun's mind..
-This year’s Cheonmu Festival. I will take responsibility and make Blue Dragon Academy the winner..
A tone of voice that makes it seem like you can do anything if you put your mind to it, and an attitude that goes beyond confidence to arrogance..
Who on earth could say something like that at the Blue Dragon Academy??
Neither he, the student council president, nor the head of the academy, nor Namgungsu, the only instructor at Cheongryong Academy, could say such a thing..
‘I can only say this because I know nothing and have never seen it in person..’
This is possible thanks to the enthusiasm of new instructors..
And now is the time when such spirit is needed, Dok Go-jun decided..
“Whether in a good or bad sense, from that day on, the school began to become more vibrant than ever before..”
“……Never before have so many people talked about Emperor Tianwu like this year. Until then, it was almost like a taboo word..”
Vice Chairman Dang So-so received Dok Go-jun's words. Everyone in the student council nodded..
‘If Baek Su-ryong had intended this... … . It can't possibly be like that..’
Dok Go-jun shook his head and said to Dang So-so..
“Vice President. Have the student council evaluation documents for new instructor applicants been delivered to the academic administration??”
“Not yet. Today is the submission deadline..”
“then…….”
Dang So-so smiled as if he knew what Dok Go-jun was going to say..
Dok Go-jun, who was lost in thought for a moment, said.
“The student council officially conveyed its opinion that it actively recommends Baek Soo-ryong to join the company. Even if it is lacking in the student evaluation score, it can be reflected..”
“yes I will definitely deliver.”
“……Don't write useless words.”
“Hehehe. I've already prepared everything.”
Dang So-so's selfless smile on his face gave Dok Go-jun a somewhat ominous feeling, but he didn't say anything more..
“Let's eat now.”
After finishing his meal in a combative manner, Dok Go-jun was the first to stand up..
Now it's time to go for afternoon training.
There was no time to waste to prepare for the Cheonmu Festival while working as student council president..
“Vice President. Make sure we pay properly for all the food we ate. instead… … Next time, I will look for another place to have a dinner party..”
Vice President Dangsoso nodded as if it was natural..
“Let's find a better restaurant. This place is probably going to fail soon..”
“The food didn't taste very good.”
“The restaurant owner and Jeomsoy are also unfriendly..”
“We need to make sure that no students are harmed in the future..”
“Of course.”
In times like this, they were two people who got along well..
After that day, the number of customers at Jamryong Restaurant gradually decreased and it eventually closed..
Jamryong Banjeom, which was sold at a low price, was later purchased by a merchant named Heo Cheon, who later reopened it under the name of Baekryong Gaekjan..
