Friday evening 7 o’clock.
On any other weekend eve, this would be the ti to go out and have fun, but I was in the circle room on the 3rd floor of the student hall.
Smaller than other major circles, but not overshadowed by average small circles, it was a spacious room.
And the external design and interior design of the room were simply luxurious.
…This is the circle room of which I just established.
After going through various troubles, today is finally the first eting where I can see the faces of the mbers.
I ca to the circle room today for that eting.
“Oh, it’s so flashy!”
Park Jin-woo, who ca with , looked around the circle room in surprise.
I chuckled and replied.
“Of course. Look how much support we received.”
There’s a reason why ’s circle room is designed so gorgeously.
During the new circle establishnt approval process, we received the academy’s full support.
Not just so support.
Full support.
The level of support that only major circles like could receive… we got it.
My ntor Professor Tak Won-ho is in the academy’s managent, and Kim Myeong-hyun, ’s supervisor professor, has a high reputation within the academy. And also…
“It’s because our circle leader Do Jae-hyun did sothing huge.”
Park Jin-woo exaggeratedly answered for .
Kim Do-yoon’s ‘Practical Attack Incident’.
This beca a huge issue not only in the academy but the entire Holder world.
Just a few months ago at the end of sester evaluations, a student Holder tried to deliberately kill another student, and as soon as the new sester started, another Holder trying to kill a classmate appeared.
‘There were a lot of suspicious points too.’
He used [Berserk Potion], which is a prohibited item.
Also, I was coincidentally trying to create a circle called .
With those elents combined, it was practically confird that Kim Do-yoon was a clan mber of .
sent spies and unfolded various operations, trying to murder student Holders but failed…
It was sothing the academy could not overlook.
As a result, the new circle that I was trying to create unintentionally benefited from it.
The managent’s will to root out within the academy coincided with the circle establishnt, allowing us to get such overwhelming support.
“Stop exaggerating.”
Whenever he catches sothing, this guy Park Jin-woo tries to make fun of .
There wasn’t even anything to make fun of, but listening to his mocking tone made slightly irritated.
Park Jin-woo laughed loudly and said.
“Why, it’s true. A student Holder who single-handedly took down a berserk B-grade Holder? Of course everyone would be interested. I heard clans are even giving recruitnt offers through hijacking these days?”
Boo-woong-
“….”
…Is my phone not gentlemanly enough?
Right after Park Jin-woo finished talking, my phone vibrated to indicate an incoming call.
After briefly checking the number, it was from an unknown caller.
As Park Jin-woo said, it must be a clan’s call.
Ever since the news widely reported how I, a student Holder, took down the berserk Kim Do-yoon, my phone has been getting calls like this every day.
I wonder how they even got my number.
“Hahaha! See, I’m right. Everyone recognizes it, why don’t you accept it?”
“It’s not recognized by everyone.”
I snapped at Park Jin-woo laughing like an idiot.
“What do you an?”
“First of all, the premise is wrong. Alone took down a berserk B-grade Holder? I don’t get it. Weren’t Moon Ga-eun and I clearly there? Why do the articles say that?”
Kim Do-yoon wasn’t taken down by just .
Moon Ga-eun and I worked together to take him down.
While I could have sohow taken him down alone, I can’t deny that her support fire was perfectly tid.
The reason we were able to take down Kim Do-yoon relatively easily was because she and I fought in perfect harmony.
But in the articles, only my feats were focused on.
– The world is amazed! Japan is shocked and Arica is envious! Seoul Holder Academy’s student holder takes down a berserk B-grade Holder alone?
‘….’
This was an actual headline.
There are no titles like this.
It was an article so embarrassing I couldn’t lift my face.
Even when Kang Juyeon first appeared, it wasn’t like this. Anyway, the dia goes crazy whenever a promising new Holder erges.
“And they aren’t even formal recruitnt offers. The clans who contact don’t actually make recruitnt offers, they just talk in circles and spout nonsense.”
When I actually answer the calls, the clans say sothing else.
Whether I have the secret to gaining multi-talent runes…
If I have any Holder friends to recomnd…
They were questions with no important value and not even worth answering.
After listening to him quietly, Park Jin-woo asked.
“Isn’t it because you already have a clan as a patron?”
“A patron? Puh- why suddenly bring up a patron?”
“You’re Kang Juyeon’s.”
“What?”
Ah, this slow-witted bastard.
Here he goes again.
Before I could say anything, Park Jin-woo quickly answered.
“Oh, just kidding. You were an intern at Judgnt of Fire, right? And an exceptionally short 2-month internship. Isn’t that why other clans are hesitating? Since you already have a patron, Judgnt of Fire.”
“Huh?”
It was an unexpectedly rational inference.
At Park Jin-woo’s unusually sharp insight, I unconsciously nodded.
There was certainly that possibility.
Among countless small clans, no clan would be confident about winning over soone who interned at Judgnt of Fire, one of the top 3 dostic clans.
That’s why they keep asking about Holder friends to recomnd and the secret behind how I beca so strong.
Well, I hadn’t deeply considered joining a clan yet so they were just grasping at straws, but still.
“Anyway, it’s annoying. I want the attention to die down quickly so I can focus on circle work.”
“I heard your circle is getting explosive attention too?”
“That’s all fake. We don’t have any applicants, right?”
“Yeah.”
“I figured.”
I chuckled and opened the door to the circle room.
The interior was glamorous, befitting a circle room that received a lot of support.
On one side there was a large bookcase and storage furniture, and on the other side there were anities like a sofa, TV, and computer.
And another room occupying half the circle room.
It was a room configured like a study room, equipped with everything needed to prepare presentations like a long table and chairs, making it a perfect space for circle etings.
We were calling it the conference room.
“Professor, you’re early.”
The conference room already had a lot of people, including ’s supervisor professor Kim Myeong-hyun.
Professor Kim Myeong-hyun welcod us with a happy face.
“Holder Do Jae-hyun, you’re here. And next to you is… Holder Park Jin-woo, right?”
Park Jin-woo nodded slightly, looking a bit surprised.
“Yes, that’s right. You rember .”
“Haha, of course I rember a student who took my class. I rember you had outstanding practical skills, but theory was a bit lacking.”
“Ah…”
“It’s alright. Practical skills are more important than theory.”
…Professor Kim also subtly feeds it to him nicely.
Park Jin-woo’s theory was probably not just sowhat lacking, but hard to even look at.
Since his style is to charge in with his body first, and Park Jin-woo doesn’t have a good studying head.
Leaving the dejected Park Jin-woo behind after the professor’s jab.
I spoke to Professor Kim Myeong-hyun.
“Professor, I think all the mbers will be gathered in about 10 minutes.”
“Yes, a lot have already arrived.”
“Um, before that…”
There were about 10 minutes until the first eting of mbers.
Before that, I had sothing to discuss with Professor Kim Myeong-hyun.
‘Jae-hyun, heyyy!’
From the corner of the conference room, a female student gestured a greeting to with her mouth shape.
Among many people, my friend Kim Chae-eun quickly entered my sight.
It was about recruiting her into the circle.
I lightly waved back at her greeting, then stepped out of the circle room with Professor Kim for a mont.
“Sorry, Professor.”
As soon as the students disappeared from the vicinity, I apologized first.
Professor Kim Myeong-hyun’s expression is filled with puzzlent.
“What does Holder Do Jae-hyun have to apologize to for?”
“About recruiting Cha-eun…”
As I hesitated with my words, Professor Kim Myeong-hyun seed to understand and raised his finger.
“Ah, are you apologizing because Chae-eun joined the circle as a mber?”
“Yes… that’s right.”
“Haha, why are you apologizing for that? She definitely begged you persistently to join.”
As expected of a dad.
Too accurate.
Despite thinking of Professor Kim Myeong-hyun’s worries, I tried to not let Kim Chae-eun join the circle, but I couldn’t convince her stubbornness, famous for being headstrong.
Not joining the circle I directly created, especially one deeply related to her… didn’t make sense, she said.
She even negotiated directly with her dad, aka the supervisor professor.
The next day she confird the joining and notified .
Professor Kim Myeong-hyun must have been persuaded enough to allow the joining, but still, it felt apologetic that the risk level of seed a bit higher around the ti of the ‘Kim Do-yoon Attack Incident’.
“And you don’t need to worry too much. Our circle is quite safe, contrary to what Holder Do Jae-hyun thinks.”
“Safe…”
Professor Kim Myeong-hyun looked back at the circle room for a mont.
“For starters, Holder Kang Juyeon and Holder Moon Ga-eun joined as mbers.”
“Huh? What does that…”
Kang Juyeon and Moon Ga-eun?
While it’s true they joined as mbers, why did he suddenly ntion them?
To my confusion, Professor Kim Myeong-hyun’s eyes widened a bit.
“Ah, Holder Do Jae-hyun must not have seen it.”
Then he fiddled with his phone for a bit before handing it to .
– Judgnt of Fire clan promises extensive support in money, equipnt, and technology to academy circle …
– Dostic top 3 clan forms ‘Internal Security TF Team’ after agreent with academy, dispatches A-grade Holder Seong Na-yeon…
“These articles just ca out.”
Professor Kim Myeong-hyun’s words rang blankly in my ears.
I also read those articles like an idiot.
No, what is this…
Why is this becoming such a big deal.
