Chapter 112.1

Chapter 112 – Rule 31: The Leader Restores Order in Academy City (14)

They had to stop him.

They had to protect the city.

The Martial Law Guards prepared to unleash their full magic power, and the Student Council President issued a command.

“Everyone! Target the Disciplinary Committee Leader of Ahsung High…!”

But then, a blue lightning bolt split the sky.

Woo-jin felt a familiar magic power and, startled, instinctively lowered the output of his destructive magic. It was an automatic response.

In the blink of an eye, someone appeared in front of Woo-jin and grabbed his raised wrist.

Woo-jin’s shocked expression did not fade.

The person before him was a short-haired girl.

It was Oh Baek-seo, the Vice Leader of Ahsung High’s Disciplinary Committee.

“Baek-seo…?”

Woo-jin called her name with a trembling voice.

“All units, cease fire…!”

The Student Council President hurriedly ordered.

Seeing Woo-jin’s sudden change in behavior, they decided to observe the situation carefully. They had no choice but to be cautious—Woo-jin held the power to destroy everything in an instant.

“Calm down, will you?”

Baek-seo gazed into Woo-jin’s eyes with a gentle and caring look, carefully lowering his arm.

“That’s it.”

The mysterious force that was about to engulf the area subsided.

The storm of magic, the thunder and lightning, all calmed down.

It was clear that Woo-jin had regained control of his emotions.

“Why are you here?”

“With something like this going on, does it make sense for the Disciplinary Committee to move alone? Remember when I got scolded by the Leader for something similar in the past?”

“You’re saying that now…?”

“Well, it’s fine. Look around you for a moment.”

Woo-jin finally noticed the magic of others pushing against his own.

Large groups of students were approaching from both sides.

*Flash!*

A female student quickly arrived in front of Woo-jin and Baek-seo, facing the Martial Law Guards.

She had wolf ears and a wolf tail, a manifestation of her magic.

It was Ha Yesong.

“Leader, I’m here to help!”

Yesong turned to Woo-jin, giving him a finger V-sign, with a slightly teary smile on her face.

Soon, students dressed in the uniforms of Ahsung High and Mayeon High lined up around Woo-jin.

They were the Disciplinary Committees of each academy.

The Martial Law Guards were visibly surprised, and the Student Council President narrowed his eyes, preparing for conflict.

“Not too late, I hope….”

Mayeon High’s Disciplinary Committee Leader, Lee Jae-ho, approached Woo-jin alongside Vice Leader Shin Ga-yeon, both catching their breath.

“You guys, why are you here?”

“That’s what you say to us after we came all this way to help? Normally, this is where you’re supposed to be moved to tears, right…?”

Jae-ho scowled, answering curtly.

“For the record, I’m here too~.”

Mayeon High’s Student Council President, Lee Ye-na, playfully peeked out from behind Jae-ho, waving with a bright smile that seemed to make flowers bloom around her.

“Ahsung High’s Disciplinary Committee requested our support, so we came to help.”

Vice Leader Shin Ga-yeon adjusted her glasses and answered for her.

“I didn’t expect you’d actually show up so quickly….”

Yesong chuckled awkwardly, interrupting.

“Ahn Woo-jin, it was obvious you’d be unleashing massive firepower.”

“And?”

“Shouldn’t you conserve your strength?”

Jae-ho smirked, looking at the heavily fortified Center Area.

“We’re dealing with a corrupt leadership and overturning this city. It’s only natural to proceed with caution. You’re our key asset, after all.”

Jae-ho adjusted his glasses and stood with his back to Woo-jin.

“I know there are some formidable Spartoi on the other side, some of those figures who have descended into urban legends. It’s clear they’re going to target you, and it’d be foolish for someone who’s just reached the 7th Tier to waste power here.”

“And yet, you think you can handle that…?”

“There’s more.”

As Jae-ho finished speaking, ghostly blue flames spread out widely, like a ghostly dance.

*Woosh!*

[Keke!!!]

[Hahaha!!]

The blue flames transformed into armed goblins, and with the goblin army’s reinforcement, the Ahsung High and Mayeon High Disciplinary Committee alliance instantly swelled in size.

“Goblins…?”

The Martial Law Guards showed strong vigilance, seeing the Disciplinary Committee alliance evolve into a threatening force.

*Click-clack.*

A female student in a goblin mask approached Woo-jin and stopped by his side.

The one who commanded the goblins.

Woo-jin looked at her in shock.

“Kim Dalbi…?”

“Uh, well….”

Dalbi tugged her light pink hair to cover part of her face, avoiding Woo-jin’s gaze. Now that she saw him, a wave of embarrassment washed over her.

“I’m sorry, but I still don’t remember who you are. But… if someone who likes me is in danger, I can’t just stand by, right?”

“…Is that so.”

Woo-jin looked down, his expression softening.

*Crack.*

Suddenly, a faint crackling sound reached Woo-jin’s ears.

It was a phenomenon that occurred when the Golden Sheep discreetly sent him a message.

Woo-jin listened intently.

─ Kid. Just listen, don’t respond.

“?”

─ The issue with Kim Dalbi’s penalties has been resolved by yours truly. There’s still a penalty, but there’s no longer a risk of losing her memories, so let her use her abilities freely.

The Golden Sheep’s voice rang out, smug and self-assured.
