“Be quiet!”

An older female professor who instantly changes the mood in the conference room.

But even that couldn’t stop Teacher Yun Hwa-ran’s anger.

Teacher Yun Hwa-ran glares at me from across the table.

The number above my head finally went up by one.

However, unlike before, no mirror fragments were created.

“Die!!!!!”

I was focusing my gaze on Teacher Yun Hwa-ran because I felt cold, but before I knew it, a scalpel was flying sharply towards my face.

Of course, it came from teacher Yun Hwa-ran.

But since I had already seen it, I was able to catch it without any trouble.

“Tsk!”

Teacher Yun Hwa-ran clicks her tongue after the attack fails.

The red numbers above the head went up at the same time.

“You’re slow. Even throwing.”

“What are you doing!!!!!”

The older female professor raised her voice when she saw what was happening.

I quickly opened my mouth because I felt like now was my chance.

“Professor, isn’t it a violation to throw a weapon at a student?”

“That kid called me Gold Miss!”

“Then, I will treat it as self-defense.”

‘No, what the hell, this bitch?’

[I guess that female professor is also sensitive about that word.]

As soon as I heard that, anger poured out of me.

The source is female professors and staff members of a similar age to Professor Yun Hwa-ran.

“Kill him!! Don’t let him live!!”

“We’re not spinsters. It’s just that time passes relatively quickly!!”

“I’m single!!! But that word is blasphemous!!!”

“Death penalty! Death penalty without exception!”

The atmosphere became quite tense.

Then, the mouth of Teacher Yun Hwa-ran began to murmur as if she was going to drive a wedge in here.

“Yerim, who is on vacation starting today, is getting married thanks to that kid!!”

“Don’t shake our vow of celibacy!!”

“”””◦”Kill me!!!!!!!!!””◦””◦”

[You guys are crazy.]

‘Are these chickens really all crazy?’

It was really funny to see them making a fuss even though it wasn’t even Toto season.

In the meantime, the action of older sister Yerim, who quickly took a vacation, is surprising.

But right now, the situation right in front of us is the most urgent matter.

If you speak carelessly, you could end up with not one, but dozens of scalpels flying at you.

There was a need to turn public opinion around again.

“Just a minute. I have something to tell you.”

“Tell me.”

An older female professor who acknowledges my right to speak.

He glares at me as if to ask what I have to say, so I calmly tell him the truth.

“Except for Ms. Yun Hwa-ran, everyone will get married within 3 years, before Christmas. I’m sure of it.”

“Why are you picking on me and pointing this out!!!!”

At that moment, the tense atmosphere in the conference room began to soften.

“Oh my, a student can do that.”

“Of course I’m not a single person, but if you decide to get married, I won’t necessarily oppose it.”

“We’re so nervous. Sorry, student.”

“Well, marriage isn’t a bad thing. You can do it someday.”

“Can you introduce me to someone good?”

◦ ◦ Why do you have to kill that dog !!!!

[You’re really stupid. What’s the big deal about marriage?]

‘Even that old lady has never been married.’

[Fuck you.]

Other people are saying kind things to me.

Only Teacher Yun Hwa-ran’s seizure was more severe than before.

The faculty meeting resumed in a relatively calm atmosphere.

“This is fine, so let’s skip it. Now that you’re here, please introduce yourself.”

[…Didn’t the author say it was self-defense?]

‘Chicken chicks.’

“Hello. My name is Kim Shin-woo, a first-year student in the Cheol class who just entered the school.”

The situation is still okay.

After I finished my introduction, an older female professor spoke to me.

“There are suspicions that student Kim Shin-woo lied about his abilities when entering the academy.”

“Let me explain that point.”

At that moment, Professor Pil-Yong, who was next to me, raised his hand and said.

I spoke quietly because I thought it was cool how Professor Pil-Yong defended me.

“Professor, I’m really touched.”

“Is there anyone else you can trust but me?”

“Thank you. After all, there is no one better than you, Professor.”

“Actually, if you get expelled, we’ll have to throw away all our papers.”

[Who do you believe?]

‘The professor said so, damn it.’

It was touching and refreshing, but it disappeared in an instant.

Professor Pil-Yong opens his mouth to everyone, whether he likes it or not.

“Please take a look at this.”

After saying that, Professor Phil Yong connected the USB to the beam projector.

One video that starts playing right away.

“As you can see, just a little while ago, student Kim Shin-woo’s reader results were as follows:”

– [Reading Complete]

– [No ability.]

– [I am incompetent.]

“This is a phenomenon that has persisted until recently.”

Professor Phil Yong started playing the rest of the videos one by one to demonstrate this.

There were some differences in the videos, but they all showed that the readings were incompetent.

“But after the recent duel with student Lucianer, the results have changed a little.”

– [Reading Complete]

– [Ability unknown.]

– [Considered incompetent.]

“Today, before the faculty meeting, we conducted an experiment on the same 53 models as before, but the results were the same.”

And this time, I started playing the footage I had shot over the past two hours.

A sense of relief wells up in my heart as each video plays.

I was really lucky.

however.

“I object. I would like to refute the matter.”

“What is it?”

That sense of relief was short-lived.

Suddenly someone raised his hand and raised an objection.

None other than Professor Park Mi-ran.

“Are you doubting the performance of our lab’s reader?”

“Not really. The reader’s performance has been sufficiently verified when I checked my abilities.”

“Then what’s the problem!”

Professor Pil-Yong started growling at the sudden rebuttal.

of course.

“Have you collected any samples of cases where a person with camouflage ability hides another person’s ability?”

“That’s…”

However, I immediately lost my temper after hearing Professor Park Mi-ran’s remarks.

The atmosphere suddenly became strange.

A person with the ability to disguise themselves.

A person with the ability to literally hide something.

The object or method of hiding varies from person to person.

Or changing your face to something else, or making your body completely invisible.

They also hide other people’s abilities.

However, this does not mean that the activation itself is prevented.

Distorting the outward appearance of another person’s abilities in a way that makes them appear slightly different.

Just like now, by twisting the reader’s results.

Of course, that alone is assessed as quite risky.

That is why Professor Phil Yong devotes himself to research on readers.

“Wait a minute. How do I become friends with someone with disguise abilities?”

“Not a single one of the many possibilities should be ignored.”

There are only a handful of registered camouflage experts in the country.

Of course, there is none within the academy.

“You should stop talking nonsense. How can I meet you?”

“Is that really so?”

A disguised ability user who originally operated secretly as a national affiliation.

It is not an entity that can be easily contacted.

It is even more impossible to become close friends.

But somehow Professor Park Mi-ran’s dirty smile bothered me.

“Are you sure? I’ve never met you before.”

“There is a record of your last contact with someone on the day of admission.”

[……That guy is Ryu Kang-hyuk.]

‘Oh, shit.’

“Ah.”

“Tell me. If you are honest, you can reveal who it is.”

Of course, you can sell Mr. Kang Hyuk’s name here.

However, considering the reaction that Yerim showed before, it is difficult to see it as a good choice.

Rather, it may cause other problems.

I was momentarily speechless and couldn’t say anything.

Then, Professor Park Mi-ran spoke first again.

“Besides, there is evidence that the person has the ability to disguise himself.”

“What evidence?”

“This is the defensive coat that Shinwoo wore last time.”

It is true that I definitely received it.

But it’s something that all hunters wear at least one of.

This is forced.

“They say all hunters wear it, but you pick a student because he wears it?”

“That coat. The first edition of the mock defensive coat. That is, the original version, right?”

It wasn’t forced.

[You didn’t tell anyone about it.]

‘How did this piece of shit know this?’

Suddenly there was a commotion in the conference room.

After all, it wasn’t easy for students to get their hands on the original version of Defensive Court.

Then, Professor Miran continued to fire continuously as if she had bitten the bait.

“I don’t know about other people, but I can’t be fooled. My research is in the defense component field.”

“The original version is correct. However, this is something I obtained through personal acquaintance. It has nothing to do with showing off your camouflage ability.”

Professor Miran smiles slightly as if she was waiting for me to speak.

Professor Miran’s remarks follow.

“Student Shinwoo. As you know, there are not many original version coats in Korea.”

He pushes up his glasses and glares at me fiercely.

With the eyes of a criminal.

“The original version coat is given to only a select few special people by the country.”

“No, what does that have to do with the camouflage ability?”

“The country records a serial number for all camouflage users and issues them an original coat.”

“Power?”

“Yes, we are providing maximum support as we can, as they are very valuable human resources to the country.”

This is something I didn’t know either.

Giving the original to all those with the ability to disguise themselves.

Certainly, this would give Professor Miran’s statement some credibility.

You get an original coat for introducing a girl to a retired hunter?

It would be more likely to think that he just received it from someone with the ability to disguise himself.

“Since Shinwoo’s interpersonal skills are top-notch, there are two possibilities here.”

Professor Miran raised her index and middle fingers as she said that.

He looks at me through the V-shape made by his two fingers.

“First, Shinwoo student subdues the disguised person and steals the court. Of course, in this case, Shinwoo student’s ability won’t be hidden, so the probability is low.”

Professor Miran’s middle finger was quickly folded as soon as she finished speaking.

And the remaining index fingers were now pointing at me.

“The second is when you are close to someone with the ability to disguise and cast the ability to disguise. In this case, the hypothesis that the person with the ability to disguise gave you the coat as a favor is also true.”

[My dear, this seems a bit twisted. Wouldn’t it be better to just clarify it?]

‘That would be convenient, but it’s a bit much to drag a retired man into the mud.’

The conference room was suddenly filled with silence.

Everyone was holding their breath and watching to see what would happen next.

Professor Miran opened her mouth and slammed the table hard as if to drive the final wedge in.

“So I have two suggestions: ”

“What is it?”

“First. Admit all of these charges and leave the academy on your own. In this case, you will not be penalized other than for expulsion.”

“What about the other one?”

Simply put, it’s a choice to just bury it as my fault.

But I didn’t like it.

“Second. Bring the coat you have. It has a serial number so you can tell who gave it to you.”

“What would you do if you didn’t have the ability to disguise yourself?”

“Then there is no problem. However, I will set up a separate space to explain why I gave you this coat.”

The next option was even worse.

It’s unlikely, but I asked just in case if there were any cases of people with camouflage abilities.

“……What if you have the ability to disguise yourself?”

“If you are a student with the ability to disguise yourself, Shinwoo should be prepared to face the maximum punishment. This is not a problem that can end with simple expulsion. ”

A foreign language.

A word that fits the current situation perfectly.

I glanced to the side and saw that Professor Pil-Yong was also making an extremely embarrassed expression and not saying anything.

If I sell the old man here, my academy life is guaranteed.

But the old man is forced to stand on this stage.

Conversely, if you admit to the charges without revealing them, you will have to go and get on and off the train.

At that moment, memories I had with my uncle came flooding back to me vividly.

Every day, like a lucky day, he fights like a dog. I recommend his masterpiece (or not).

Suddenly I felt like shit.

[At this point, I think it would be okay to just sell it.]

‘Should I really sell this damn thing?’

I let out a deep sigh.

I don’t know what his intention was, but he did give me something valuable.

Thanks to that, the nobleman also won.

Honestly, I thought I had done enough.

[It’s spring so the weather is warm, so getting on and off the train is a little less tiring.]

‘Fuck you idiot. You should really thank me.’

“Student Shinwoo! Choose!”

“Yes, I will tell you. I-”
