monday.

Since the library is closed, it is a day off for me, and I can relax at home and read the books I borrowed.

But I dared to wear a suit and come to the main academy building.

Not to tour the academy, but to check the ‘target’.

Murmur.

Many people wear similar uniforms and head to the auditorium.

The auditorium, which can accommodate up to 2,000 people, is where major events are held at the academy, and is also where today’s ‘entrance ceremony’ is held.

Normally, it would be just an ordinary entrance ceremony, but this year it will be quite different from before.

“When I introduce the instructor today, will that person also appear?”

“Ha. Snow White… I can’t believe he’s coming as an instructor this year. I’m so happy.”

“S-level, you can listen to a lecture on special abilities from the strongest person in the ice world. Wow, I did a good job of postponing my graduation year…!”

Those who participate in the entrance ceremony and those who come to watch the entrance ceremony are all very interested in the existence of a woman.

Baek Seol-hee.

Snow white.

Wow!

Just by putting on a suit and taking a seat inside the auditorium with other faculty members, I am hearing cheers from many people.

‘It seems awkward.’

Baek Seol-hee nodded lightly and responded to the people, then calmly sat down on the chair.

As a hero, you might be used to receiving cheers from people, but receiving cheers like this as a ‘teacher’ seems quite awkward.

‘oh.’

A familiar face appears on the podium.

“Ah. Before the entrance ceremony begins now…”

Student Council President Yoon I-seon took the microphone and began speaking.

Normally, even if it were an entrance ceremony, the faculty and staff would preside over the ceremony, but since the student council president is so talented, I think he was entrusted with hosting such an official event.

“The order of the entrance ceremony is…”

While Iseon Yoon was talking about the order in which the entrance ceremony would take place, a text message arrived on my smartphone.

[excuse me.]

[Mr. Jihwan.]

[help me.]

“……?”

This is Baek Seol-hee.

It was none other than Baek Seol-hee who asked me to help.

“Ah, can I talk to you?”

I immediately called Baek Seol-hee, but the call was quickly rejected.

“What.”

A text message saying, “I can’t answer the phone.”

I immediately texted her, wondering if she might have sent me a text message without my knowledge.

[Are you sending a text message right now without others knowing?]

[I’m sending this message without anyone knowing, so I’ll contact you via text message.]

“Ah.”

Messages crossed.

The message was received the moment I sent it, and it was probably the same for Baek Seol-hee.

[Is there a problem?]

[Tell me to congratulate you.]

[A congratulatory speech?]

I raised my head.

“The order of the entrance ceremony is as follows…”

There was no specific part of Baek Seol-hee’s congratulatory speech in the ceremony that Yoon I-seon spoke about.

But I think the reason we’re talking about the congratulatory speech now is because someone snuck in on the spot and asked, ‘Wouldn’t Snow White give a congratulatory speech?’

‘It’s causing trouble.’

When you run for class president, you basically prepare for a few minutes, but it makes no sense to suddenly give congratulatory remarks at a large-scale event such as an entrance ceremony, where even reporters from the media are filming live.

But [Snow White] has to be done.

[The president suddenly tells me to do itㅠㅠ]

[Wasn’t it planned?]

[Not at all.]

“Um….”

For Baek Seol-hee, this would not just be embarrassing, it would be to the point of going crazy.

For a hero, Baek Seol-hee does not engage in outside activities often – except for being invited to official government events as a face lady – and is not a person who speaks well in front of people.

As a result, it is virtually impossible to give an ad-lib speech on the spot.

Although this ability may be an S-level talent, she tends to master skills in other fields through effort.

In other words, giving speeches or congratulatory remarks is not an easy task for her.

[Do you know a good phrase to use in a congratulatory message? Even if it’s simple, it’s okay.]

“This is right.”

I can’t believe I got to give advice during Baek Seol-hee’s congratulatory speech.

‘What is it?’

Another way would be to just ignore it and move on, or say that you will find out as much as possible and take your time.

If Baek Seol-hee ruins the barn, people will definitely ridicule and insult her, and naturally, Baek Seol-hee’s disillusionment with others will increase.

I might be able to sneak in through that gap and corrupt Baek Seol-hee into a member of a deadly organization.

but.

‘It’s so true when empathy levels are like this.’

I can’t see.

I can’t see Baek Seol-hee being criticized in her speech.

When I watch movies or dramas, I am a person who cannot sit still and watch the main character or character being put in an embarrassing situation.

Baek Seol-hee being ridiculed by people for making a speech is no different from me being booed by people seeing me naked after losing my transformation.

And since Baek Seol-hee asked me for help, since I heard a woman ask me to help her, and as long as I can do it, I can’t just ignore it.

“If I’m grateful, I’ll buy you some food later.”

Or, later, when my identity is revealed, I might think, ‘Do Ji-hwan helped me during my speech.’

Such favors will accumulate and accumulate, and will result in me surviving or protecting my life when I am later captured by Snow White.

so.

[I will briefly summarize it and send it to you via text message.]

I grabbed my smartphone and started typing quickly.

After a while.

When the entrance ceremony is nearing its end.

“…I would like to say that I am about to conclude the entrance ceremony.”

The president pointed behind him.

” On behalf of those who have newly joined the teaching staff this year, one person cannot help but say a word to the new students. Now, Snow White. Would you like to come out and say something?”

Students and observers, who were hoping for the president’s boring speech to end, focused all their attention on Snow White, who was sitting on the podium.

“…Yes.”

As Baek Seol-hee stood up, the camera shutter sound began to sound rapidly.

As if a celebrity was holding a press conference, everyone began to watch Baek Seol-hee closely.

“Freshman students.”

Baek Seol-hee glanced at her Taegeuk watch and then opened her mouth in a low voice.

“What do you think heroes fight against?”

The freshmen tilted their heads at the welcome speech that started with a question.

“A villain who abuses this ability? Those who run wild with their abilities? Evil organizations hiding all over the Earth? Or, as some people claim, are extraterrestrial or otherworldly beings that will one day come to Earth? Everyone’s thoughts will be different. I would like to say this:”

Silence fell throughout the auditorium.

“Heroes are those who fight against ‘irrationality’.”

Unreasonable.

Everyone tilted their heads at the unfamiliar word, which was unexpected and completely different from what was said before.

“You will face many choices and trials in the future as you live as a person with special abilities. There will be moments when you make yourself sick while pursuing justice, and there will also be moments when you make impulsive judgments based on momentary greed. Whenever that happens, the world will present you with unreasonable experiences in various ways.”

chamberlain.

When playing Super Mao, you run towards the goal, and there is a transparent block, so you put your head on it, fall into a hole, and fall.

I described it as unreasonable because it seemed like a good place to be, but to put it in just two words –

‘There is no other profession that receives as much criticism as being a hero.’

It’s hard.

Those who want to become heroes live with a lot of mental pain, and the world does not give ordinary trials to such people.

And such trials sometimes appear in directions that cannot be understood by the common sense of the hero or ordinary people.

Malicious comments, incitement, or manipulation.

All kinds of malice that cannot be expressed in a few sentences are directed at the hero, so the hero must stand against it.

“You will face many walls of irrationality in the future. Will you break through that wall or will you avoid it? Or should I just move the wall aside, pass by, and then put it back in its original place? That’s up to you. You can make your choice based on what you have learned here at Sejong Academy. Will you conform to irrationality, will you compromise with irrationality, or will you fight against irrationality?”

Sejong Island is a place where people with this ability can most easily increase their magical power.

Sejong Academy is a place that provides ‘education’ on what kind of person a person with special abilities should be in society with their special abilities.

“The era when superpowers became a reality. Here at Sejong Academy, we will provide you with all the learning you need to live in this era. Of course, the same goes for superpowers, magical powers, and other abilities.”

I told her.

“No matter who you become after you graduate from here.”

Baek Seol-hee took a deep breath and smiled slightly.

“I believe that no matter what irrationality stands in your way, you will overcome it. Based on everything you have learned here at Sejong Academy, we hope that you will continue your world into the future with your own power.”

Baek Seol-hee’s words made me laugh for no reason.

‘I was plagiarized.’

The words I said while eating after watching the movie came out of Baek Seol-hee’s mouth slightly muffled.

‘Not bad.’

future.

Yes, the future.

At least so that we don’t get destroyed by a meteorite or something.

I will use all my strength to fight against all irrationality that seeks to destroy this world.

“Thank you.”

Wow!

The entrance ceremony is over.

A new year at the Academy has begun.
