I Become a Mafia in the Academy Chapter 88:

The video we posted caused a stir on social dia.

Not surprisingly, the opponent was no ordinary villain, but rather Plague, a villain rumored to have overthrown an entire country.

Moreover, he had never directly nad a target like this before, as he usually just outlines his ideology.

It was even rumored that the source of the video was none other than the massive mafia group, Corleone and that was bound to be an issue.

Is that what this is about?

Boss, you watched it yesterday too, right?

As soon as we enter the classroom, Jin-woo looks at and smiles.

You an thevideo?

Thats right. Thats right, do you know who posted that video on the internet?

He twitches the corners of his mouth as if he doesnt know what to say.

Apparently, he was taking so pride in the fact that it was a Corleone initiative.

I saw that on the news today, too, so dont get carried away and sit down.

Huh? That was on the news?

I walk past Jin-woo, who looks dumbfounded as if hes never heard of it, and sit down.

Hmm? I dont see Young-jae.

Theres no sign of Young-jae, who should normally be at school earlier than anyone else, reading a book.

As if to answer , Se-ah, who was sitting in the front seat, turns and looks at .

Mr. Young-jae left long before Mr. Eugene ca, and hasnt co back until now. Could it be that the teacher called him?

Instructor Ji-hyun?

Yes. Other than that, where would Mr. Young-jae go?

Just when I was thinking that was definitely the case.

Maybe he went to the restroom?

Another plausible argunt ca up.

Should I try to contact?

Almost there?

Just then, a complicated-looking Young-jae walked through the front door and stood in front of the classroom table.

This mornings Dungeonology and Monsterology classes are canceled due to a eting of the academys instructors and staff. The Monsterology teacher will give us a test next hour, so please dont play around.

The kids are excited at the ntion of the eting, but sigh at the ntion of the test.

Apparently, the mood in the staff room is pretty serious because of the Villain Alliance. We also have a freshman welco party coming up soon.

At Young-jaes words, one of the kids sitting in front of him raised his hand.

Wait, does that an were not having a freshman welco party?

When he says welco party, he ans an opportunity.

The other kids look uneasy at the thought of missing out on such an event.

I dont know, but maybe thats why theyre having the eting, because the whole point of having the eting is to sohow organize the new student welco.

The Freshman Welco isnt just for freshn, but also for alumni to donate to the program.

It would be a sha for the academy to miss such an event, so the eting would be oriented towards the event.

Thats how it always worked in the ga.

Thats all for now. Go do your own thing, whether its studying or on your phones, and dont disturb the other kids around you.

I was confident in my Monsterology anyway, so I kept up with the news and world events through my Smart Lens, and before I knew it, it was almost lunchti.

The teachers, who were supposed to be in a eting, are nowhere to be seen.

At this point, I was thinking, What will happen to my afternoon class?

Ha, Im backHows everyones self-study going?

Ji-hyun walked in with her bangs ssily tousled.

You know from the class leader that there was a eting all morning, and now Im going to tell you the Academys guidelines based on the results of the eting, so listen carefully.

Ji-hyun said three things.

1. The academys classes will be held as normal, but there will be no practical exercises such as dueling or dungeon exploration, and the afternoon classes, which are usually packed with practical exercises, will not be held. Students will be instructed to return ho after lunch as the academys instructors have been deployed to search for villains at the request of the association and the governnt.

2. The new students welcoming party will be held and with the help of Academy alumni and the Association, we will maintain top-notch security. The safety of our students will be our top priority.

3. For the ti being, we ask students to refrain from outside activities.

At this, the children begin to murmur and express their anxiety.

The fact that the academy took serious asures makes it clear that the academy is also in danger of terrorism.

The sense of danger was palpable.

Does anyone have any questions?

At that mont, Jin-woo raised his hand.

Jin-woo Bevalt, what is it?

Can we eat and go ho now?!

Ha, thats crazy.

Ji-hyun wipes her face dry with the palm of her hand as Jin-woo shouts in excitent.

Yes. Eat and go ho.

Woohyo~!!

Jin-woo makes a weird noise as hes excited to go ho earlier than usual.

Feeling embarrassed just by looking at him, I turned away from him and raised my hand.

Does that an we cant do any club activities today? Since its a sudden announcent, I think we need to prepare.

Hearing my question, Ji-hyun nods.

Yeah, well, if youre going to ask a question, ask that one. Not the stupid one about can I go ho.

Huh?

Shut up Jin-woo Bevalt.

Yes!

Having shut Jin-woo up with one word, Ji-hyun turns her attention back to and continues.

Unfortunately, club activities are banned after today. Well, what can you do, a global villain has declared war against us.

After saying that, Ji-hyun looks at the clock on her wrist and checks the ti.

So you have ten minutes until lunch, so take it easy, eat, and then go ho. Oh, and Kim Se-ah.

What?

The governnt and the Association have requested a commission for spatial mages, do you want to do it?

What? A, a request? But Im-

Of course, youre going as an assistant or sothing, so youll just have to assist . Your paynt will be about 200,000 credits per day.

Se-ahs jaw dropped at the sound of that.

Two, two hundred thousand? Ill do it, Ill do it, Ill do it!

Se-ah exclaims in delight, and Ji-hyun smirks.

Then eat and co to the staff room.

Okay!

Se-ah hurriedly replies, and then bursts into laughter as she sits down to eat.

1.4 million for just one weeks work! Hehe!

Jin-woo, who had been watching the scene carefully, suddenly raised his hand.

Instructor. Arent you looking for more patrol people or sothing?

Apparently, the 200,000 credits per day was very coveted but Ji-hyun shook his head and replied flatly.

Uh.

Jin-woo hangs his head in disbelief, and Se-ah, who giggles at the sight, pats him on the shoulder.

Dont be so sad, I make a lot of money, so Ill take you out to a club dinner or sothing.

Really? You?

How about tteokbokki in front of the academy?

tteokbokki.

With assorted tempura.

I thought you werebut youre actually an Angel?!

A re addition of tempura had elevated Se-ah from a re mortal to an angel.

Ji-hyun, who had been watching the scene in disbelief, shook her head and started toward the door.

Anyway, dont go off in different directions, and go ho when youre done.

Only after the children responded with a yes~ did Ji-hyun leave the classroom.

Wow, Im going to have extra ti today, so Im going to go to the fish restaurant.

Jin-woos insistence on going to the fish restaurant, despite being told that there is a risk of terrorism, is almost peaceful, like watching a typical Korean high school student.

Hello? Huh? Dad? Co ho? Yes? Now? No, I know the academy finished early? No, I dont know how my dad can that, okay, Ill co ho right away.

But Jin-woo is also a mber of Corleone and the heir to the Bevalt family.

The last thing he needed was to be alone in the middle of an ergency that affected all of Corleone.

I caused this so I felt a little sorry.

* * *

And so, days passed.

The academy I saw on my way to school was bustling with activity.

It seed to be in preparation for the new student welco party tomorrow.

Mr. Kim, fly this thing over here!

Oops, oops, oops! Be careful!

Workers had already been coming and going from one side of the academy for so ti to set up a stage or a sculpture, and the other students were also looking forward to tomorrows welco party.

Surprisingly, after several days of ergency, nothing happened.

The children who had been following the teachers instructions at first gradually beca more relaxed, and so of the teachers went back to their normal lives when nothing happened.

So of them, like Jin-woo, even seed to be enjoying the shortened lessons, so everyone seed to have relaxed a bit.

Moreover, the new student welco party was the first festival of the academy, and it was bound to be exciting.

As I walked through the cheerful hallway and into the classroom, I saw Jin-woo turn his head to look at with a smile on his face.

He stops talking to the other kids and stands up from his seat to run over to .

Ah! Boss, what do you think?!

About what.

You know, the text.

Text?

You an the text that said afternoon classes will resu after the new student welco party?

Thats right! Thats right! No, boss, dont you think its a bit much to resu afternoon classes after just one week?

No, I was just wondering what you were talking about.

It was clear that the most relaxed student of the week was this one.

He must have family problems, but hes so light-hearted because of his nature.

Well, its an expensive academy, but its not fair to go to only morning classes, is it, Young-jae?

Its better to have afternoon classes than to be dragged around by your ntor every day because you dont have afternoon classes. I strongly agree with the academy.

Its not like I dont know how you feel.

I, too, had to go straight back to the mansion after the academy to help with the organization, so I didnt get a chance to rest.

Look at this. These guys are weird. They say its better to stay in the academy longer, what does the boss think?

No I dont.

At that mont, Ji-hyun entered the class, looking as tired as ever, and flopped down on the table.

Oh is everyone here? Did you see the text? It was an after-work honey, but Im done sucking hhoney.

Instructor thinks so too, right?!

Here was another instructor like Jin-woo.

Huh? Whats he talking about again, stop talking nonsense and sit down.

Hing.

She seed to have a different tone.

Now that were all seated, Ill start with a quick announcent. Classes will resu in the afternoon, just like it says, after the new student welco party tomorrow. But dont let your guard down, its just governnt policy, the situation is not over yet.the next ssage is

[Jizik JizikJizik]

Suddenly, Ji-hyun stops talking as a loud noise blares from the class speakers.

The other kids are also frowning or covering their ears at the sound.

Im also thinking, What the hell is going on?

Ring around the rosie.(Lets ring around the rose.)

A pocket full of posies.

Ashes! ashes!

We all fall down!

Never belonged here.

The cheerful, upbeat song echoes throughout the academy.

A song that most South Koreans have heard on the news at one ti or another.

?

Soone who recognizes it speaks up briefly, and then

!!!

There was a loud bang and my vision went black.
