Chapter 306 – 59. Interim Evaluation (2)
.
To the citizens on the street, ‘What are the virtues a hero should have?’ When conducting an interview, there are usually about three answers.
One. Be stronger than the villain.
One. In reality, you don’t have to think about it that way, so at least outwardly think of being a citizen first.
One. Don’t just chase after the fleeing villain, start by rescuing people.
I wonder if this is an answer that fits the word ‘virtue’, but let’s put that aside for now.
In summary, it would be ‘If you want to be called a hero by others, please save me.’
No one would like to be included in the statistics on casualties from villain crimes, which number about 15,000 in Korea alone every year.
And this atmosphere was no different even though it was Hero Academy.
There is no way to force someone to become a hero.
Everyone may have entered the school willingly, perhaps because some are blinded by money and fame, but in any case, it is a place they came to by their own will.
“Teacher Seo Woo-jin? Are you inside now?”
“Oh, yes.”
“It’s no different, it’s because of today’s schedule…”
“Yes, yes. Wait a minute.”
Early summer, when the scent of spring has almost disappeared and the warm wind has begun to sweep across the back of the neck.
I covered the stinging sunlight outside the window with my hand and walked down the hallway with the teachers who served as examiners.
It was the day the midterm evaluation began.
306
“… So, Sua-chan. From here to here, it’s an evaluation related to ‘life-saving’.”
“Yes.”
“I guess the only thing related to combat is the relative evaluation written here and the absolute evaluation from the teachers?
“Maybe so? It’s my first time, so I’m not sure…”
“Ugh… Why did you configure it like this… ?”
“Why… ?”
“Honestly, isn’t it okay to just fight well… Do you really need to take a test like this to deal with emergency situations… “
“…”
Yozora Touka Night emptiness 透夏.
And Han Su-ah sitting next to me.
Lee Ji-yoon, who was staring at the back of the two people, pressed the earphones a little more and sighed.
Because those two people, or more precisely, a Japanese person, were whispering in front of her, she couldn’t concentrate on her studies.
Still, I tried to do at least some cramming before the exam, but those two didn’t really have any intention of studying.
Oh yeah? Han Su-ah is the daughter of a chaebol family, so even if she messes up on the test, there won’t be any problem.
She must have a lot of money at home, so much so that she even came to Korea to study.
Unlike someone who tries to avoid going to work at a café during vacation.
Thanks to this, she thought about communism again, and only by turning up the volume was she able to escape the sound of the two people’s conversation.
However, concentration that has been broken not once but several times are unlikely to come back anytime soon.
In the end, Lee Ji-yoon, who was just flipping through the pages without remembering anything, clicked her tongue and fell down on the desk like she always did.
It might be difficult to get a perfect score, but I thought about making up for the shortfall with practical skills.
She turned the earphones up to a low volume again.
“If there were more healing circles like health teachers, we wouldn’t have to learn this kind of thing. Right?”
“Right… Right? Maybe?”
“It’s annoying…”
“…”
If only Lee Ji-yoon’s ears hadn’t heard that conversation.
If only that alone didn’t make me feel a bit smug.
I’m sure I would have just slept like this.
“Are you busy because of the evaluation today?”
“Even if you’re not busy, wouldn’t you be waiting nearby?”
“Ah… I want to at least see your face…”
“…”
With an indescribable sense of superiority.
… Like a fool.
Twisting.
With your ears perking up.
As her ears turn red.
I stayed down at my desk until the exam started.
As she turned to talk to Han Su-ah, Yozora’s eyes glanced at Lee Ji-yoon.
Without even noticing her.

“Ugh… You know that thing from the movie? You can do it. Furthermore, you can do it. Furthermore, you keep repeating it to yourself.”
“… Hey, isn’t that from the Olympics and not a movie? Fencing?”
“Anyway! It means that attitude is important no matter what.”
In front of Lee Ha-yoon, who looks at me with a distrustful expression.
Seol Dabin patted her on her soft chest and smiled brightly, showing her fangs.
The second grade classroom was a little noisy compared to the quiet first grade classroom.
It’s not because this grade is the worst generation at Miren Academy or anything like that.
It is natural for talented students to stand out from their freshman year and receive love calls from current heroes, and it is not easy to change the ‘rank’ established at that time.
In fact, the written test was no different from an aptitude test after that, as long as you had a certain level of basic knowledge.
The ranking referred to here is not one of effort, but of talent.
Can you arrive at the accident scene as quickly as possible?
If there are hostages, even several or dozens, is there the ability to rescue them?
When a building is consumed by fire, is there a way to respond?
Or is it possible to simply arrest those social misfits ‘by force’?
After most of these were evaluated several times in the first year, the ranking rarely changed.
Sometimes,
Unless you realize something too late.
“Last year, I smelled like a paste every single day… I guess I’ve almost learned how to control my strength at this level?”
“Hmm… Maybe…?”
“So, are you going to be busy during vacation this time? Because there is always a shortage of strong evolutionary systems?”
“Eh, eh… What am I…”
“Why, that was the reason you got hurt so much. Because you couldn’t control your strength.”
“Still…”
However, what Seol Da-bin was interested in now was ‘something else’, not the growth of her friend.
Seol Da-bin, who was sitting at the desk, playfully poked his fist in front of Lee Ha-yoon’s eyes.
Then he gently crossed his legs and rested his chin.
“But really, how did you get the knack?”
Just like a faint smile.
Judo threw the newspaper.
“… Just because I was doing it…”
“As I was doing it…”
How pure of a person do you have to be to truly believe that?
Rather than the general reason that I did it because I did it, wouldn’t it be more reasonable to think that I practiced without worrying about getting hurt thanks to the help from the healing transcendental person by my side?
Seol Da-bin, who remembered the excuse of ‘counseling’ from last time, tried to pinch Lee Ha-yoon’s cheek in front of him, but barely held back.
I wondered if her father’s feelings for his daughter would be like this.
There are many good men in the world, but the one my daughter chose was Seo Woo-jin, who had another woman by his side.
It would have been better if he was just a piece of trash, but the man my daughter chose got along so well with my daughter, so it would have been a shame to meddle in it.
Moreover, as I watched with bated breath from afar, I could feel that Hayun really liked it.
So Seol Da-bin himself was vaguely aware that this interest was for nothing.
If you’re going to sneak your voice into someone else’s love life without even asking for it, it would be better to spend that time taking care of your boyfriend.
Almost 10 years.
Since we have been seeing each other for such a long time, instead of feeling the same excitement as when we were children, we are now like her family, so shouldn’t we get over this first?
Do things like a lover as much as possible. In that way.
“…”
But that guy… I really don’t like it…
I want to tell Hayoon not to like a guy like that…
Last time I saw it, Hayun really likes Seo Woojin, and she even directly helps him…
– Grumbling
“Everyone goes back to their seats and sit down. Those who have finished marking should lie down and close their eyes without doing anything else.”
Or watch him until you can catch the pod.
… Wouldn’t it be better for me to seize the day and at least strengthen my mental education so that I can feel a little more at ease?
Seol Da-bin, who swallowed a sigh that was about to escape, got down from Lee Ha-yoon’s desk with a forced smile.
*****
After the ‘repayment’ for Seo Woo Jin was over.
I thought about this as I went home.
Last night, Seo Woo Jin shook off Yoo Si Woo, but now that I think about it, it only happened once.
Therefore, the ‘trivial friction’ in the downtown area may not actually have much of an effect on Yu Si-woo…
It was not a guess with weak basis.
I really, really hate to admit it, but there are few people who know Yu Si-woo’s personality better than I do.
And as I expected, Yu Si-woo.
“Ha… As expected, the air here is the most comfortable…”
“Don’t sniff. It makes you feel bad.”
“What do you think? It’s not like clinging to your senior and sniffing at him.”
I opened the door to the student council room as usual.
“Senior. What about the other kids? You finished your notes earlier?”
“He’s probably practicing somewhere. He’ll be performing soon.”
“I see… Practice…”
“…”
“Then, can you spend some time with me and your senior today?”
“… Are you serious?”
“I was always sincere?”
“… Haa…”
… But still, I never thought that nothing would really change.
Because that shamelessness was ridiculous, I used a more blunt tone than usual, but Yu Si-woo looked at my face with a hearty smile as always.
The same goes for if you turn your head and sigh out of frustration.
He let out a giggling laugh and continued talking without paying attention.
“Well, anyway. Did you go home well yesterday? I heard you were picking out a gift for the teacher’s girlfriend.”
“If something had gone wrong, I wouldn’t be here.”
“That’s true too…, … No, the senior here could be a fake? Can I touch it?”
“Stop playing around and get away. I always really hate it too.”
“Ugh… You don’t have any degree…”
“I don’t want to give you even a single speck of that.”
“Yes. Yes.”
Seeing him coming closer, his voice filled with frustration, Yoo Si-woo heads towards his usual sofa with his hands raised as if he were encountering a police officer pointing a pistol.
I turned my attention to his back and looked at the documents again, then frowned and raised my head when I heard the sound of the game console.
And thanks to that, there was one thing that caught my eye.
… It is none other than a sofa.
That big sofa that Yu Si-woo uses as a bed.
What Seo Woo Jin mentioned last night.
The only bedding in the student council room.
“…”
I, who was wasting time because of pointless delusions, started looking at the documents again before Yu Si-woo’s gaze turned towards me.
“… Ah.”
… What I noticed was that there were a lot of consistent yet rough ballpoint pen marks at the bottom right of the once white document.
It was a story a little later.
