Chapter 84 – The Trial Where Something Went Wrong ( 1 )
Hyeji Hong was confident.
Although not a top 10 family, the Hong family was a famous family in the new Korea.
Although not at the level of the heirs of the 10th family, he had the support ability that could be called a gifted child.
She was not beautiful enough to be called beautiful, but she was beautiful enough not to be called ugly.
‘Because in class A, the only thing that can be said to have a better background than mine is the heir to the blue family, one of the top 10 families. I want to get close to Cheong Ah-hyun while maintaining good grades. As part of the network!’
She borrowed the power of her family in advance to research the information of her A classmates, and Hong Hye-ji entered the Shinsung International Academy with her ambitious purpose.
Her brain is also good, so she passed the entrance exam lightly, and with her good grades, I was seated in a seat close to her back.
‘Great. It’s as planned.’
Even if she didn’t get first place herself, she thought that second place was a condition that she could achieve.
“Wow.. So pretty.”
“You’re a freshman?! What kind of heir to a teenage family are you smearing like that?”
“Where are you from a famous family? Or a genius?”
..But a completely unexpected variable appeared.
—Freak–!!
The deadly skill of Jeok Sena, the successor of the 10th generation enemy family.
Widely.
“…”
The figure of a red-haired girl standing lightly and with a lofty appearance.
‘..Beautiful.’
Even Hong Hye-ji, whom she would never admit unless she came from a background higher than herself, thought she was beautiful with such a girl, Kim Hiro.
Puffed up..
‘Decomposition..’
And in the next moment, a tremendous sense of inferiority came over me.
Hyeji Hong herself and Hiro Kim standing over there have the same hair color, but everything is different.
Appearance too. Skill too. Popularity.
She was even given the class president position by her homeroom teacher, Suin, for reasons completely incomprehensible to her.
‘When I was researching, there was no kid with a special background other than Cheong Ah-hyun… No, no. With that kind of looks and that kind of skill, he must have a great background!’
She has recognized Hiro Kim deeply in her heart without realizing it, but Hong Hye-ji thinks that if she is that talented, she must have a ‘better’ background than herself, and she tries again to find the part she missed. I investigated Hiro Kim once.
“What is it… Boy…”
According to the information conveyed by Hongga’s informant, Kim Hiro’s parents are only one father.
“Just… Running a pharmaceutical company?”
As for the background, I could only read one short line, ‘A pharmaceutical company is operating’.
She looked at the reports several times to see if there was a guild or faction she belonged to somewhere, but there was no such thing.
There is nothing special about her except that she is running a pharmaceutical company.
Hong Hye-ji looked at Hiro Kim’s photo and profile report with an expression that she couldn’t understand.
Most of the promising companies are processing industry companies that process monster materials, IT, and equipment manufacturing companies for talented people.
Since the pharmaceutical company affiliate is absolutely monopolized by ‘Cheols Pharmaceuticals’, there were many cases where pharmaceutical companies were insignificant except for Cheols Pharmaceuticals.
‘I don’t have a family, and the work my parents do is mediocre.. Didn’t you enter the academy as a special admission?’
Hong Hye-ji confirmed that Hiro Kim had never been observed at her entrance exam, and she doubted that she entered the academy not because she had a background to enter the academy, but because of special talent admission.
Even if her background wasn’t met, if her skills were enough to defeat the heirs of the 10th generation, she was a skill the academy coveted.
In reality, the pharmaceutical company that Hiro’s father, Cheols runs, monopolizes all pharmaceuticals, but that ‘Chels Pharmaceutical’.
“Only the lower classes.”
It was impossible to find out the personal information concealed by the 10th families, Cheolga and Baekga, and the private information organization operated by Cheols Pharmaceuticals, with the information power of the Hongga, which could not even reach the 10th family.
“No matter how good your skills are, what do you do? The background is not good.
If he had been awake at least during the entrance ceremony, he would have guessed that there would be something after seeing Cheols having a light conversation with the healer Baek Seo-yang and the principal Iron Mask after fighting and enduring the school principal.
Unfortunately, Hong Hye-ji passed out after being hit by a beast dog during her entrance ceremony, and only woke up when she arrived at the hospital.
The details of Hiro’s father, Cheols, were completely unknown due to the cover-up of two teenage families.
‘I don’t like it either, Hiro Kim!’
Hong Hye-ji believed that she was inferior to Hiro in all aspects, but she was superior to Hiro as far as her background, and she looked down on Hiro.
==========
“Hyeji Hong… Hyeji Hong… Hmm. I don’t remember?”
Looking at the monitor screen, Cheols muttered while rubbing his temples.
If it was a character that had a lot of weight in the play, it would be better to remember it a little…
‘Was it an extra?’
No matter how much I thought about it, Hong Hye-ji didn’t come to mind.
However, Hong Hye-ji became the same group as Hiro.
“If it was your first test, you must have been catching monsters with a party of three, right?”
With Hiro alone, she doesn’t have to worry at all.
Since he already has the skills of a semi-a-level, he can easily pass most of the student-level tests.
However, the ‘three-person party hunting’ test that will be taken from now on is a test in which you have to deal with a monster that has become the plus alpha of the other two party members in addition to Hiro’s skills.
It is impossible to pass the exam with excellent grades if the members do not play their role properly.
“Even if Cheong Ah-hyun remains the same… Originally, the other one seems to have been a tanker-type male student who wondered if he was Kang Cheol-min or something. Has the composition of the team changed since Hiro became class president?”
In the original work, Hiro… No, Baek Shin-hyeok was not even the vice-captain, let alone the class president.
His teacher Kang Woo-chan did his best to teach him, and Baek Sang-hyeok was a genius among geniuses because of the existence of the main character buff, but he did not stand out from the beginning.
“The class president was Cheong Ah-hyun, and the vice-captain was…Ah!”
Cheols suddenly exclaims while looking at Hong Hye-ji’s face on the monitor.
“Vice-captain Hong Hye-ji! Sometimes passed by in the corner of the scene!”
Why isn’t there such a thing? A character like an extra, a classmate passing through home correspondence.
“I think you were good to Baek Hyuk in the game… Why are you looking at me like you don’t like me?”
Cheols looked at Hong Hye-ji, who had a rough expression on the screen, while Hae-hae stroked his hair.
In the past, instead of hating Baek Shin-hyeok, he seemed to take care of him as the vice-captain.
“Wait… Hiro is now the class president, right? Also, the gender has changed. Is it jealousy between girls?”
In fact, if you think about it, there are several reasons why Hong Hye-ji might hate Hiro.
“What are you going to do if Ji doesn’t like our Hiro? As an extra. More than that, Hong Hye-ji’s ability should help Hiro test.”
Failing this test did not cause Hiro any direct problems.
No matter how much the academy values practical experience, it was impossible under the Education Act to bring in monsters that could threaten the safety of students for the test.
The monsters Hiro will face are imaginary monsters created by witchcraft.
The damage suffered as a result is completely nonexistent except for the mental part.
‘Still, considering future developments, it might be better to rank first in the exam.’
Only the first-place group of the exam is eligible to compete in the half-and-half competition.
“..Hmm”
After holding onto the microphone several times and repeating loud and mute, Cheols eventually turned the microphone’s head.
He had nothing to help at this time.
=======
“Each member of the same team should know the fighting style and gather opinions to decide the way the party hunts. Coordinating battles before hunting is very important.”
Following the words of PE teacher Alonso, all the students in Class A sat together in the same group of three and began to coordinate the battle.
Each of them figured out each other’s ability types and discussed how to match the sum to deal with monsters.
‘Why am I the same group as him..!’
It was the same for Hiro’s group, including Hong Hye-ji.
Three people sat facing each other.
No, to be precise, Cheong Ah-hyun was looking at Hiro with a lively face, and Hiro was just staring at the floor blankly, wondering what he was thinking.
“…”
The other members are discussing hard, but in a situation where no one speaks.
“Um…Ahyeonnim?”
Hong Hye-ji looked at Cheong Ah-hyun and opened her mouth first.
“Yes?”
After watching Hiro, Ah-hyeon, startled, looks at Hong Hye-ji.
“It’s nice to be in the same group. I’m Hong Hye-ji from the Red Eye Hongga. My father runs the Red Sea Guild.”
She wore a smile that looked like a person, and she introduced herself in a formal manner, even using honorifics to say that she had such a family and such a background.
“Ah yes.”
Ah-hyeon Chung replied with her shy face.
Being the heir to the Qing family, she hadn’t seen someone like Hong Hye-ji once or twice, and she rather felt a sense of distance from using honorific words among the same students.
“Ahyeon-nim is a member of the famous 10th generation blue family, so you are of the elemental sub-ice type, right? I am a supporter, and I mainly use strengthening and weakening. What do you think, Ahyeon?”
Hong Hye-ji, undeterred by Ah-yeon’s reaction, continues to tell her story about the battle. Since she only introduced herself to Ah-hyun, Hiro was completely ignoring her.
“I think it’s better to ask Hiro? Among us, Hiro is the prettiest… No no, because he’s strong.”
However, Ahyeon was not willing to accept that.
Immediately, the initiative passed to Hiro, and Hong Hye-ji’s business smile turned to Hiro with a slightly furrowed forehead.
“Ah..Kim Hiro. Come to think of it, the ace who won the successor of the enemy family was our group.”
Hong Hye-ji speaks in a sarcastic tone as if she remembered it belatedly.
“Kim Hiro. What would you like the class president to do?
She asked Hiro, thinking inwardly that if she had a weak opinion, she would refute it.
“Well..”
At that, Hiro put his two fingers on the floor.
“Run.”
Moving his fingers like human legs.
“I’m going to get close and cut.”
Bring his two fingers together and swing them like a blade.
Then, he stares at her with yellow eyes, asking if he is sincere.
“What..?”
Hong Hye-ji, who recalled all kinds of disputes in her head, couldn’t help but ask Hiro’s gaze with a stupid face.
Run and cut
Elementary school students.
“That..How could that be..!”
“Hiro is amazing!”
“..Urg!”
She was dumbfounded and tried to get angry, but Cheong Ah-hyeon interrupted and exclaimed. As a result, Hong Hye-ji bit her tongue and couldn’t follow her words.
“Like this. If you run fast like this and cut it, you’ll die.”
“That’s right! That’s right! How…! With Hiro’s skills, monsters will die instantly the moment you cut them!”
Hiro moves his hands diligently to explain something so simple that only a dog or a cow can say, and Ah-hyun pours out compliments generously with his eyes shining next to him.
“…”
‘It’s ruined… Neither is normal.’
Hong Hye-ji, who was watching the scene, thought of whether she could take the test in that group as she saw the two of them as pure as a child with a blank head, leaving behind what Hiro hated.
