I felt a pang inside.

Just now.

Suyeon Lee, overcome with emotion, hugged me.

There is no way Lee Soo-yeon has selfish interests toward me.

I feel sorry for doubting the true intentions of a true educator.

But Choi Hana was my girlfriend.

No matter how much you know about Lee Soo-yeon’s personality, her looks and popularity are amazing.

It would have been difficult if Hana had misunderstood the scene from before.

Swipe-

But fortunately, I didn’t think I even saw that scene.

The reason I poked her in the back seemed to mean that she wanted to pay attention to me because she was here.

I slowly put one hand out to the side.

Then one grabbed two of my fingers.

Lee Su-yeon, who was looking at that scene, smiled.

Lee Soo-yeon has already noticed the strange atmosphere between the two people.

So, he seemed to pretend not to notice and did not bother to disturb the two people who were in the prime of their youth.

“Then, shall we go to the original meeting place?”

The two people nodded at Lee Su-yeon’s words.

After a while.

The three people moved to the small conference room of the liberal arts department.

Cadets from other hunter classes had also come and gathered there in advance.

“You’re here! Junwoo Lee!”

One cadet with long platinum hair welcomed me very welcome.

Before I knew it, Jeong Woon-kyung had grown quite a bit.

Because I didn’t wear makeup like a woman.

Although the cadets did not outright suspect it.

If anyone knew his identity, he had become so pretty that no one would think he was a man.

“You seem to be doing well.”

I responded to Jeong Woon-kyung and Jeong So-so’s greetings without much emotion.

As soon as our eyes met, Jeong Woon-kyung turned his head away from me.

It’s a subtle reaction no matter who sees it, but fortunately the Hunter class cadets don’t seem to have noticed it.

Kukkuk-

But there was one person who noticed.

It was one.

“Mr. Jeong Woon-kyung is from the Yoho tribe. He was pretending to be a man, but I already knew that his identity was suspicious. Especially when I see you…”

One whispered cautiously.

Those words stung me.

‘It seems like everyone noticed that Jeong So-so was a woman.’

After coming to the Hunter class.

Jeong So-so often visited me without her knowledge.

A brain-type cadet who often takes on the role of operator in party play.

As such, it was natural for him to talk about tactics with me.

It seemed like Hana was keeping an eye on the relationship between the two people who talked too often.

‘It doesn’t seem that way, but I’m secretly jealous.’

Of course, I would also feel bad if someone acted like I was close to Hana.

In that respect, I didn’t dislike it as much as it was an action that made me feel like Hana liked me.

Hana and I sat side by side in the conference room.

There was a reason for that today.

An Yu-min was not here.

“Ahn Yu-min…”

Although I knew his whereabouts to some extent.

Still, I asked Jeong So-so to confirm accurately.

“It seems that Yumin is not in good condition after group training in the Maui section. So, it is said that he was hospitalized in a nursing facility for a short time to maintain his condition until the final final exam.”

“……”

I could feel Hana reacting sensitively to her words.

I knew the reason.

Everyone realized that An Yu-min was obsessed with me.

Now that one is my girlfriend.

There was no way I wouldn’t be bothered by An Yumin’s obsession.

‘Ahn Yu-min…’

The main character of the original work.

And compared to the original, the Academy’s story progress has reached its end.

Perhaps the best first-year cadet will be confirmed through this final exam.

“Then, I will explain to you the rules and precautions for this final exam.”

At that time, instructor Lee Su-yeon stood in front of the screen.

On the screen she loaded, three familiar faces appeared.

Kunwoo Yoon and I.

And it was An Yu-min.

“You know why these three are shown first.”

Soso Jeong answered those words.

“Aren’t they the cadets ranked 1st to 3rd side by side?”

Suyeon Lee nodded at those words.

“Cadet Woon-kyung Jeong is right. All remaining first-year cadets participate in the final exam. And according to the rules, it is individual play, not party play. At the same time, the final exam rank is graded through survival rules. You do realize that it’s not actually a completely individual play, right?”

Instructor Lee Su-yeon was right.

The final exam evaluation field uses a special dungeon that exists within Theia’s campus, like the Demon Section.

And the field is not as dangerous as the Ma section.

Instead, the size of the area is much larger.

‘It means strategic action is needed.’

Naturally, we have no choice but to unite for each other’s survival.

There are three dangerous cadets, including myself, who could most threaten their survival.

What kind of stance you maintain with those three top cadets will be the key to survival for five days.

“Yoomin and Junwoo still belong to the same hunter class, so there is a certain stance they should maintain. However, there are already cadets who need to be clearly careful.”

“I must avoid Yoon Geon-woo at all costs.”

Lee Su-yeon nodded at Jeong So-so’s words.

“That’s right. The reason I gathered you all here today is because of Yoon Geon-woo.”

Instructor Lee Soo-yeon obtained a video of Yoon Geon-woo’s performance in the last horse section.

The video started playing on the screen.

Soon, the expressions of all the cadets except me turned pale.

“You’re really not at cadet level. No, I don’t think it’s a person…”

Without her knowledge, Jeong So-so took out her fox ears and stood them upright.

Yoon Geon-woo’s performance in that section of the horse is so scary.

‘Yoon Geon-woo…’

And needless to say, Yoon Geon-woo was my biggest competitor.

‘And Ahn Yu-min.’

Even though I was pushed out by Yoon Geon-woo and I.

Ahn Yu-min’s performance indicators were still good enough to rank 3rd among cadets.

In short, what kind of stance An Yu-min takes will determine the direction of the final exam.

“It’s like the final exams have already started. The reason I gathered you here is to teach you that fact. Check the cadet’s sphere of influence before the exam and expand your friendly circle as much as possible. Because that is the key to this final exam.”

Instructor Lee Su-yeon was right.

Although it was said to be an individual exhibition, it was actually a group exhibition.

It means a kind of small war taking place at the academy.

At those words, Hana squeezed my hand, which was holding it under the conference room table, even harder.

Just as Hana is the boss of Blood Jaguar.

I didn’t know what I had to do before the final exam.

‘I need to look for An Yu-min before the exam starts.’

Recruiting An Yu-min was more important than anything else.

In my head, I was busy thinking about how to do it.

And after the meeting was over.

A separate appointment was made with the original Aegis members.

***

Song Xia participated in the True Opposition meeting.

It was a meeting for cadets only.

It wouldn’t be strange if the instructor in charge of the hero class attended there.

There was an unexpected guest.

The apostle of Valhalla, the active team leader, was directly participating in the meeting and giving instructions.

“This final exam is not just a test for cadets. This is a test held with the honor of an apostle in place of the canceled cadet competition finals. So that everyone can carry out their instructions well!”

Everyone saluted at the hunter’s words.

As the leader of an elite team.

It was natural for even the arrogant cadets of the Apostles to be polite.

Yoon Geon-woo’s right-hand man. Even Jin Hyun-jun, the head of the crime prevention department, could feel that he was paying close attention to every word the hunter said.

“……”

But just one cadet.

The man was listening intently to the briefing, with his legs proudly placed on the conference room table.

Of course, this is rudeness that goes beyond common sense.

The team leader looked so arrogant that even if he slapped the cadet in the face, no one would say a word.

However, Sado’s team leader did not point out the cadet’s mistake.

Rather, it was to the point of praising the cadet for what he had done in the last section of Ma.

“Everyone here will have to work hard not to hold Cadet Yoon Geon-woo’s ankles! That’s all for the delivery!”

As the team leader said.

Of course, that arrogant cadet was Yoon Geon-woo.

“……”

Song Si-ah looked at Yoon Geon-woo’s expression.

As a cadet, he is very arrogant and has high self-esteem.

Even the team leader could have been happy to see me in that posture.

For some reason, Yoon Geon-woo’s expression continued to be unfavorable.

‘It’s worth it.’

Song Xia guessed the reason.

Briefing from the elite team leader.

The briefing focused on cadets to take note of during this final exam.

Among the cadets to watch out for, Lee Jun-woo is the cadet who is considered to have an S-rank level of risk.

– It has already been confirmed by Sado’s analysis team. This cadet named Lee Jun-woo is the third awakened person. So, in order to achieve successful results, you must systematically keep Lee Jun-woo in check!

At the team leader’s words, all of the Apostles members made rotten expressions.

– Besides Geon-woo, there was another cadet who succeeded in the third awakening? Is that Lee Jun-woo too?

– Even An Yu-min understands… How did an orphan with such a trashy pedigree succeed in his third awakening?

Like their reaction.

Unless your parents are high-ranking hunters or heroes. It was extremely rare for a cadet to succeed in the third awakening.

However, everyone was shocked by the team leader’s briefing video that followed.

A video from a recent group training.

In that video, Lee Jun-woo faced the boss of the magic section alone.

A mirror of mana that fills the air.

And the power that transcended the standards created by the mirror made even the leader of the elite team watch the battle scene with his arms crossed in earnest.

‘I’ve never heard of such a type of power and skill.’

So, Yoon Geon-woo had no choice but to make a shit-eating expression.

An unknown cadet whom Yoon Geon-woo openly ignored.

Lee Jun-woo has now reached the same level as himself.

As soon as the meeting ended, the other cadets were watching Yoon Geon-woo and trying to lighten his mood.

Of course, it doesn’t matter to Song Xia at all.

Rather, her mind was filled with things about Lee Jun-woo.

‘Now the people of Sado are also paying attention to Junwoo. So Junwoo also needs to have a clear stance…’

So, without her noticing, I left the conference room and walked at a fast pace.

So much so that she realized too late that there was someone following her.

“Huh… gasp… Song Si-nim! Why are you walking so fast!! Now, let’s talk for a moment! About Lee Jun-woo!!”

Song Xia turned her head at those words.

A blonde-haired nun.

Ha Ye-eun was coming towards her.
