Into the Creations 724

Chapter 724 – 724. Savior Of The Academy

724. Savior of the Academy

I subtly raised my hand, placing it on Kang Ji-young’s shoulder, who was still taller than me. Kang Ji-young frowned and looked at me.

“What is it?”

“It’s nothing much. It’s been a while since we met. Let’s have dinner together tonight.”

“Take your hand off, it’s uncomfortable to walk. I don’t have time for dinner. I’m busy.”

I immediately took my hand off. Kang Ji-young was a woman who was decisive. If I were to be clingy and persistent, I would only face a backlash.

‘Should I check her favorability?’

『Kang Ji-young’s Favorability: 57』

A favorability of 50 or more was considered a level where romance was possible. However, considering Kang Ji-young’s personality and position, a favorability of 57 was far from enough.

“You can at least have a meal with me.”

“It’s the academy entrance season. There’s a lot of work to handle.”

“Should I tell Mom about what happened today?”

“……”

Kang Ji-young sighed. If Sung Ha-ri found out about what happened today, she would definitely go to Kang Ji-young and confront her. Having dinner with me versus being harassed by Sung Ha-ri. It didn’t take much thought to figure out which was more bothersome.

“…Okay. I’ll keep tonight free. Should I go to Ha-ri’s house?”

“Since it’s a special occasion, let’s eat just the two of us. I’ll tell Mom.”

Kang Ji-young nodded.

“Okay. I’ll contact you later. But why are you so insistent on having dinner with me?”

“Because I like my aunt?”

“……”

Kang Ji-young glanced at me for a moment, then looked forward again as she walked. She probably thought what I said was a joke. She was a workaholic. She was clumsy in everything except work.

“Auntie. What should we have for dinner? Steak? Korean food?”

“Something appropriate.”

“Steak would be good then.”

I came out of the dungeon. I found Oh Yu-mi and Bae Hyun-sung at the dungeon entrance. Oh Yu-mi was sitting on a chair with a dark expression, and the unconscious Bae Hyun-sung was being carried away by a supervisor.

“…Sung Yu-jin. I’m glad you’re safe. I thought you were going to die to the Orc Lord.”

“The supervisor was watching, so that wouldn’t have happened even in the worst case. What about Ryu Hana?”

“She hasn’t come out yet. She went up, but I didn’t see her. Did you?”

“I saw her before I fell into the forest. I thought she would have come out first, but I guess not.”

Oh Yu-mi looked at me with tired eyes, then stared at the fluctuating dungeon entrance in the air.

I asked her.

“Didn’t you tell the supervisor?”

“I did. They said it was okay.”

A little later, Ryu Hana emerged from the fluctuating space. Her clothes were disheveled and covered in dirt, but she looked neat, perhaps because of her outstanding beauty.

“You’re safe. The test is over. I’m going back now. See you at the entrance ceremony later.”

Oh Yu-mi waved her hand and went outside.

Ryu Hana stared at me intently. I smiled awkwardly and approached her.

“I’m sorry about earlier. Did I hit you too hard?”

“…No. It’s okay. Thinking about it, I did forget about the team and acted on my own. Retreating was the right answer back then, like you said.”

“I feel relieved that you understand.”

“Who did you learn swordsmanship from?”

“Swordsmanship? That’s…”

“It’s okay if it’s difficult to say. I’ll go now.”

Ryu Hana passed me and went outside. Before her back completely disappeared, I checked her favorability.

『Ryu Hana’s Favorability: 16』

‘She’s out of the hostile state. Her favorability is still low, though.’

It’s not bad.

I failed today, but there will be many more opportunities to win over Ryu Hana. Once we enter the academy, we’ll have to face each other whether we like it or not.

I had dinner with Kang Ji-young and went home.

***

Ryu Bong-moo looked at Ryu Hana, who had come home, and was startled. Her messy clothes and thoughtful expression were different from her usual self. Especially when Ryu Bong-moo saw the bloodstains on her clothes, he clenched his fist without realizing it.

“Ryu Hana. Did you do well on the test? You didn’t tarnish the name of the North Diamond Clan, did you?”

Ryu Hana quietly replied.

“Yes, Father. I did my best. I’ll go to my room and rest for today.”

“……Okay.”

Ryu Hana went into her room.

Ryu Bong-moo immediately went outside and headed to the Korean Hero Association. There, he met Yoo Pil-sung, who had become the president of the Korean Hero Association two years ago.

“…Oh my. What brings the North Diamond Clan leader here so suddenly?”

“I don’t have much time, so I’ll get straight to the point. I want to see the video of my daughter’s academy entrance exam today.”

Yoo Pil-sung smiled wryly.

“Ryu Bong-moo, this is difficult. The academy entrance exam materials are prohibited from being leaked.”

“I know. I don’t intend to leak it. Just show it to me. It’s about my daughter.”

“Even if you say that, it’s really difficult…”

“Is that all the trust you have in me, the association president? I’m disappointed.”

Yoo Pil-sung pressed his temple as if he had a headache. Yoo Pil-sung couldn’t just ignore Ryu Bong-moo. He was the head of one of the largest clans in Korea. Moreover, Ryu Bong-moo was involved in the background of Yoo Pil-sung becoming the association president.

“This is really difficult, even if it’s anything else. Do you know who the general supervisor of your daughter’s entrance exam was?”

“Who is it?”

“It’s Dean Kang Ji-young. Dean Kang Ji-young personally supervised the test site where your daughter was. I know you’re curious about the content of the entrance exam, but please refrain from it since Dean Kang Ji-young herself was involved. Doesn’t that mean your daughter is so great that Dean Kang Ji-young had to personally step in?”

Kang Ji-young.

The pioneer of the heavens.

It was a name that could not be ignored, even by the North Diamond Clan.

Yoo Pil-sung thought Ryu Bong-moo would get up and leave. But he didn’t leave. Instead, he bowed his head to Yoo Pil-sung.

“Please, President Yoo Pil-sung. I will take responsibility if any problems arise from this.”

“…Hoo. I’m showing it to you because it’s you, Ryu Bong-moo. Please be careful not to let it get out. If it gets into Dean Kang Ji-young’s ears… Ugh. Just thinking about it makes me shudder.”

“Thank you, Association President.”

“I wouldn’t have granted this request if it wasn’t for Ryu Bong-moo’s words.”

“I won’t forget your favor.”

“Wait for 30 minutes… no, 1 hour.”

Yoo Pil-sung, who had gone outside, returned in 40 minutes. He was holding a laptop in his hand.

“Here are the materials from the entrance exam site your daughter took. I would like to copy the data for you, but the guy under me is making a fuss about it, so you’ll have to check the materials here within an hour.”

“Yes.”

Ryu Bong-moo, who answered briefly, touched the laptop.

First, he checked the materials for the written exam. His daughter, Ryu Hana, had scored a perfect score, ranking first. There was also a video. There were no problems.

The first practical exam. A battle against a gnoll. Ryu Hana’s record was 27 seconds. Ryu Hana calmly faced the gnoll.

Yoo Pil-sung, who was watching from the side, let out an exclamation.

“As expected of Ryu Bong-moo’s daughter. She might become the best hero in Korea in 10 years. Haha…”

“……”

However, Ryu Hana was not the first in the practical exam. There was a record that was even better than Ryu Hana’s. Ryu Bong-moo’s eyes widened when he checked the video. Yoo Pil-sung also opened his mouth.

“1 second…? To think there was such a talent. His name is Sung Yu-jin?”

“…According to the information, he’s Sung Ha-ri’s son.”

“Hoo. That woman’s son, it makes sense.”

He also looked at the second practical exam materials. Ryu Hana and Sung Yu-jin were on the same team.

“That Orc Lord… It’s Kang Ji-young.”

“Is that so? You’re good at recognizing her.”

“It feels like Kang Ji-young.”

Ryu Bong-moo watched the video intently. Ryu Hana was overwhelmed by Kang Ji-young. And she was slapped by Sung Yu-jin.

Yoo Pil-sung stepped back at the flow of mana he felt from Ryu Bong-moo’s body.

“C-calm down. If the laptop breaks, it’s really impossible to fix. And Sung Yu-jin’s actions were a bit extreme, but they weren’t wrong, were they?”

Yoo Pil-sung was right. If it weren’t for Sung Yu-jin, Ryu Hana would have panicked and made an even bigger mistake.

He knew it in his head, but his heart couldn’t easily accept it and was filled with anger. But the anger was soon forgotten in the following scene.

“Sword energy…! Sung Ha-ri’s son is a monster beyond genius. To use sword energy at that age…!”

“Sword energy isn’t the problem. What’s more amazing is his swordsmanship. That kid’s swordsmanship is better than most active heroes.”

It was similar to or better than a D-class hero. Even if it wasn’t as overwhelming as Sung Ha-ri, he was definitely the best among the examinees.

The video ended with Sung Yu-jin falling with the Orc Lord.

Ryu Bong-moo watched the video several more times.

‘It’s natural for Hana to be discouraged. But I, her father, know Hana’s talent well. Hana will surpass that guy.’

Regardless, Sung Yu-jin’s skills were real. If possible, he wanted to bring him to the North Diamond Clan. He would be a good rival for his daughter, Ryu Hana.

“Thank you. Association President. Thanks to you, I got good information.”

“Ahem. Ryu Bong-moo, you must not tell anyone about this information.”

“I keep my promises. I’ll stake my honor on it.”

“No, well, not to the point of honor…”

Ryu Bong-moo left the association. His mind was much more complicated than when he came to the association as he returned home.

***

The 24th.

Christmas Eve.

That afternoon, a text message arrived.

『Dear Sung Yu-jin,

Congratulations on passing the Maruhan Academy entrance exam.

The entrance ceremony will be held on March 2nd. Please check the website below for more information.』

It was a text message announcing his acceptance. Sending the acceptance message on Christmas Eve was clearly the association’s consideration to make Christmas even happier.

I, who was sitting on the living room sofa, shouted towards my room.

“Mom! I got a text saying I passed the academy!”

Sung Ha-ri’s voice was heard from the bedroom.

“Really?! As expected of Yu-jin! Mom knew Yu-jin would pass! We have to have a celebration party! I was going to do it tomorrow, but… I can’t just sit still when Yu-jin passed! Wait a minute!”

Three minutes later, Sung Ha-ri came out. My eyes, which were just sitting on the sofa peeling tangerines, widened.

“Uh, Mom. That outfit is…”

“I prepared it because it’s Christmas. I was originally going to wear it tomorrow.”

It was a Santa bunny girl outfit.

She had red rabbit ears on her head, and the tight-fitting leotard was red, giving off a Christmas vibe. Her chest looked like it was about to burst, and her pure white legs were tempting me.

“How is it?”

Sung Ha-ri struck a pose. Her left hand was on her waist, and her right hand was behind her head, showing her white armpit.

“M-Mommy!”

I jumped up from the sofa and ran towards Sung Ha-ri. I hugged her waist and tried to kiss her. Sung Ha-ri raised her hand and stopped me.

“Wait a minute, Yu-jin.”

“Why? I’m in a hurry.”

“This time, it’s a celebration for your academy acceptance. So, I’ll specially serve you from start to finish, so stay still.”

Sung Ha-ri’s service! She always treated me well as if she was serving me, so I was curious about what she would do this time, so I decided to stay still. My dick was hard to the limit, so I couldn’t stay still.

*Chu.*

Sung Ha-ri lightly kissed my cheek. At the same time, her hand started to take off my clothes.

“Hmm~ um~ uh-huh~”

Sung Ha-ri hummed as if she was in a good mood. Her body swayed, and her full breasts and black hair swayed.

She happily took off my top and stroked me with her palm.

“I’m realizing it again, but our Yu-jin has really grown a lot.”

“I’ll grow even more in the future.”

Suddenly, Sung Ha-ri looked like she was about to cry.

“What’s wrong, Mom?”

“If you enter the academy, I can’t be with you. The academy is a dormitory system.”

“We can go out of the academy on weekends and meet.”

“Still, the thought of not being able to see Yu-jin makes me want to cry.”

“It’s not like we’re separating forever.”

Sung Ha-ri pressed herself against me. Her full breasts, wrapped in the leotard, pressed against my upper body. At the same time, her hand took off my pants. My hard dick, which had come out of my underwear, pressed against Sung Ha-ri’s lower abdomen.

Sung Ha-ri wrapped her arms around my neck and whispered quietly in my ear. I supported her beautiful, curved waist with one hand.

“Yu-jin, you know that Mom loves you very much, right?”

“I know. I love you a lot too, Mom.”

“Mom can’t live without Yu-jin. Even if you go to the academy, you have to come home every weekend. If you don’t come, Mom will come and find you?”

“That’s not bad either. Let’s go to the academy together.”

“This kid…”

Sung Ha-ri’s lips overlapped with mine.
