When the giant first appeared, everyone was amazed. A fight with a creature I’ve never seen before and a giant monster.

It’s something interesting.

So, the media also had interesting articles and stories about giants.

Although some critics questioned the giant’s identity and purpose, most were just curious.

However, when he appeared twice and defeated the giant monster, it caused more controversy than interest.

-First of all, let’s give it a name. Giants are so uncool.

-Did the giant monster originally exist? Why is everyone suddenly receiving growth hormones?

-When a giant monster appears, a giant also comes out and takes care of it. What set is it?

-So you are an ally? Honestly, didn’t you help the giant monster because it was your enemy?

-ㄹㅇ Just trust in giants!

There was a lot of public opinion on the Internet thanking the giant for taking care of the monster.

However, critics unanimously raised warnings about the giant.

[The giant clearly took care of the giant monster, but we don’t even know where the giant monster came from.]

[It’s helpful to humanity? Did the giant say so? We don’t know giants. How it behaves and how it works. You should not trust it carelessly.]

In addition, the committee also expressed conflicting opinions.

Commissioner Lee Cheol-min was positive.

[I saw humanity in the giant. It’s similar to us humans. In that respect, I would like to see it favorably.]

However, as expected, Chisignon and other opponents responded with rejection.

[If he is truly friendly to humanity, he will be able to communicate with us. But I didn’t. why? Because we’re not human. If you are a human, you can just openly cooperate with us. Why can’t I do that?]

[I have never seen an awakened person turn into a giant. If he is on the side of humanity, he needs to let us know what kind of power he has. Better operations under the management of our committee. If the giant is friendly to humanity, I hope it will come to the committee.]

They simultaneously coveted the power to turn into giants.

Perhaps because it was a bit explicit, it was natural that there was a lot of discussion on the Internet over the remark.

-Aren’t you just openly asking for strength?

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Is this a ‘give me’ hard sell scene?

– So, you want to come because you want that power?

-Even if you want to go, you probably won’t go after that interview?

-But do you really believe in that giant? I’m anxious.

-Let’s see a giant whose identity he doesn’t even know is praising him for being cool… .

-If I do that, I feel like I’ll get stabbed in the back and get kicked.

-I need to be punished by the cool new bastards in charge, but look at how I’m the only one who gives a sharp rebuke?

Anyway, there were many more stories about the giant, and among them, there was one that was important.

-So shouldn’t we at least give it a name?

Yes. It’s the name.

Since people call it a giant without any reason, the Internet community started talking about the title for that giant.

It may have happened once, but this is the second time.

First of all, shouldn’t there be a title that is easy to call?

The titles that came out the most were simple ones like Giant Man and Academy Man.

The reason is because, as you can see from the name, he is a giant and has appeared twice in the academy.

However, it was quickly forgotten due to its poor naming sense.

So the second one that came out was Dark Man, or Dark Knight Man, with a black and dark blue appearance.

However, because it also has a dark blue pattern in its appearance, it is difficult to call it a complete name, so I put it on hold for now.

The third is Wolfman, which came about because the mask itself is a compressed form of a wolf.

The one that received the most support here is Jetman, which comes from the phrase Z on gas.

Although opinions are still divided, the title Jetman began to be used most often.

Of course, Shin Je-ul, who was watching all of this, laughed.

“The Dark Knight Man is also good… . Jetman is better.”

He walked down the street with an amused face.

***

Shin Jeul was extremely busy that day. After I was discharged from the hospital, I had to upgrade Ultria and make additional weapons.

There is even a deadline for the sub-scenario, so it must be carried out as well.

“No, why are you so busy?”

While making a current emitter in the training room, he wiped away the sweat that was flowing down. Electric current is supplied by Ultria, so it would be great to collect that electricity and discharge it or apply it to weapons.

“Jeulth. Current emitter? What is the sudden wind? I had to take a break after finishing the full body suit last time.”

A chubby man touching a figure next to him takes interest in him.

Shin Je-ul is basically treated like a dead giveaway by the academy. However, that was just a matter of setting, and since I was active, I had to make at least some friends to talk to within the school, so I was talking about this and that with my friends from the support department around me.

The same goes for Ahn Deok-hoon, who likes figures now. It just so happened that we kept talking and talking to each other.

“I go crazy every time I train with a real awakened person.”

“Oh, they do as they please, right?”

Shin Jeul was showing off a current emitter. When Ultria itself produces power, it is collected and controlled by this emitter.

‘We are adding a step-by-step control function.’

He remembered the last time the laser was installed and decided to attach it to his right hand.

“Well, it’s working.”

“Jeulth. Doesn’t Professor Seonha Lee look like he’s having a hard time these days? You’re in charge of this, but you must be having a hard time.”

“Maybe it’s because of the midterm exam.”

Yes. Since these academies are also schools, there are midterm and final exams.

It’s the second week of April right now, and the first midterm exam will be held from late April to early May.

Jeul Shin didn’t know when the deadline for the sub-scenario would be, but he judged that there would at least be quite a bit of time.

‘Professor Lee Seon-ha is worried about how to combine the support department and awakened students, and the school program doesn’t change that quickly.’

Yes. At least the deadline will be relatively more lenient than if it were based on other human relationships… . Shin Jeul was mistaken.

Because things always happen unexpectedly.

In class that day, Lee Seon-ha was explaining the harmony between awakeners and supports according to the sub-scenario.

“Of course, the support department is only an assistant. It can’t be a state. However, as you can see from various practices, there are definitely elements in which the support department can be helpful. So, I plan to further strengthen the existing Awakened and Non-Awakened combination through this training program.”

She introduced various equipment and argued that the support department could also be of great help.

This is an effort to somehow organize awakened and non-awakened people through a teleprompter.

“For example, during comprehensive missions, the support department not only detects monsters, but also uses equipment to identify monsters, or helps awakened people fight… .”

“In that case, wouldn’t it be better for two awakened people to go together?”

Dae-ho Ahn raised a counterargument.

“What the professor says makes sense, but I don’t know if it will be that useful. If there are two awakened people, the field of view is wider and it is helpful in battle.”

“But there aren’t that many awakened people.”

“But even in this incident, when the monster Cloud appeared, the support department was a burden.”

Ahn Dae-ho’s words were not his own.

Obviously, when a monster attack occurred due to Cloud, the awakened people had to protect the non-awakened support department.

This is an unchanging fact.

Shin Je-ul also saw Lee Seon-ha’s depressed expression, even though he accepted that April had saved him.

Still, she didn’t give up.

“That’s right, it’s a lack of ability in the support department. However, considering that I participated in the mission purely for assistance without proper equipment, it was well worth it.”

“Ah, professor too. You’re expecting something special.”

Dae-ho Ahn and his gang laugh. Since he was a professor, he just didn’t say it out loud and just laughed at it.

Seonha Lee is also depressed by the reality that she cannot do anything about.

As Shin Je-ul took all these details into account, he came up with a sub-scenario.

It’s difficult, but it’s practically a prize. A support department that not everyone expects.

But he knew.

If you stay still, eventually it won’t happen. Luck comes from those who act.

“Now that I think about it, why not actually prepare all the equipment and increase the difficulty level of the test?”

The moment Shin Jeul finally raised his hand and spoke, the atmosphere in the class became cold.

“What is that again?”

“Why is it me?”

“Really, I don’t understand the topic.”

Even though such reactions came from all over, Shin Jeul remained steadfast.

Lee Seon-ha murmured happily to such a sympathizer.

“So, I’m definitely thinking of making a program… .”

“Does it have any meaning?”

This time, Kang Cheon-seong giggles and answers. The reaction is definitely repulsive.

This sub-scenario is what needs to be overcome.

There were many thoughts going through Shin Je-ul’s mind.

‘There is definitely a sense of urgency during Monster Cloud.’

This is different from simply waiting and then going into the mountain and carrying out a mission.

After class, Lee Seon-ha personally sings Shin Je-ul.

“Thanks to Jeul, I still have my spirits up.”

“Yes. Well, I’m also in the support department, so it’s a bit weird to be ignored, right?”

“Hehe, I guess so. So now I’m thinking of changing the program a bit? However, I think it will take time to figure out how the support department can be helpful despite the difficulty level.”

“Well, the focus is not because the difficulty is too high, but rather ‘growth’.”

How can we prove our support while keeping everyone satisfied?

Can the support department move quickly while supporting with full weapons and auxiliary equipment?

Shin Je-ul reconnected to the academy computer for the answer.

“What we need is information… .”

In order to increase the difficulty, you must judge by looking at the characteristics of the awakened people and battle videos.

However, as you know, it is difficult to change the number of awakened people overnight.

‘How can I not get the data?’

We need videos or information from awakened students currently attending school.

When Shin Je-ul thought it was difficult, a clear answer came to mind.

[Area Management]

Yes. In the original novel, this computer is the Academy itself. I freely used materials and videos stored at the academy.

He says he can only limit himself to this department now, but what about area management?

[Area Management]

-Expansion: Monster Points 300, Plus Points 150

– Expand the area of academy insolvency.

-When expanding, information in the expanded space can be freely used.

“This is it!”

As it happened, he had about 500 and 300 left, respectively, excluding the points he spent on upgrading Ultria and the current emitter.

Here he chose to expand and check the academy information.

[Academy Expansion]

-Expand the desired area centered on the warehouse.

The structure of this academy was now displayed as a hologram before Shin Jeul’s eyes.

“Then, after all, there is only one place to do it?”

In fact, Shin Jeul knew well where to look for information and data on the awakened people.

This is the central control room located on the second basement level of the academy’s main building.

A space one level lower than the first basement level where Shinjeul is located.

A section with CCTV, electricity supply and facilities, and weak artificial intelligence that oversees the electronic information system.

The intention is to take over that very place.

As Shin Jeul proceeded without hesitation, the pure white coffin seen earlier began to move to the floor below.

In reality, nothing is visible, only to his eyes.

I confirmed that the computer had a transparent pipe connected to the central control room, like a wire.

[Central control room expansion successful!]

-You can get help from artificial intelligence in the central control room.

When he finally connected, a new program was installed on his computer.

[The central control room artificial intelligence is on standby.]

“Really? Then it’s simple. I’m going to create a program for the awakeners and the support department. It’s different from the existing cooperative missions. But the level of difficulty is high, and the support department needs to be helpful. Can I configure this program?”

To be honest, Shin Je-ul was also anxious about whether this would turn out accurately.

However, contrary to his reaction, this artificial intelligence surprisingly began to move.

The artificial intelligence within the computer suddenly displayed a screen collecting data.

[Currently checking second-year awakened student videos and evaluation information, checking current practicum program information]

And not long after, this information is put together to create a mission program.

[The problem with the current program is that it is easy for awakened people to deal with it. To that end, we shortened the duration of each mission and created monsters that have clear weaknesses but are difficult to understand if not properly identified.]

A program was being put together. It is a truly difficult program and a great place to grow.

As soon as the program finished working, Shin Je-ul unplugged the USB and ran to the teacher’s office.

“Professor. What is this program like?”

He confidently proposed a new program and Lee Seon-ha looked at him with a surprised face.

“Did I make this?”

“Yes? haha. I received a lot of help.”

He couldn’t bring himself to say that artificial intelligence had done it and awkwardly avoided eye contact.

“I think it’s okay? With this, we prove how necessary the support department is!”

“Yes.”

Of course, this week ends today and this mission will be applied starting next week.

‘This is not normal. ‘I have to prepare well first.’

But what can you do if you just program well? The support department needs to do well. Shin Jeul vowed to attack this sub-scenario using the academy computer.
