*****

Of course, the practical test was invalidated. The school said it would decide on a different evaluation method ‘taking into account’ the content of the practical exam, but it would not be an easy task.

I express my condolences to the teachers who are desperately trying to find alternative solutions right now.

Moreover, that is not the only task teachers have. In order to maintain the sub-space where the Dungeon Core disappeared, it can be said that a mountain of work is literally piled up, including investigation of accidents with investigative agencies, and care for students.

Thanks to this, the students of Cheonmyeong High School were enjoying their unseasonable free time.

“Army, playing a game of soccer?”

“Huh? Ah, I passed today. I’m too lazy to change into gym clothes.”

“Why do you need to change clothes? Immediately as usual──”

“Fool, you can’t do it now.”

“… Ah~.”

The face of the male student who came to encourage him to play soccer instantly changed to an expression of understanding as the guy next to him tapped him. Even without using potential, I could tell that his eyes were on my bare legs.

It’s okay to change clothes while working out, so I don’t really bother doing it. However, the two people walked away with red faces. It’s okay if you don’t feel so sorry.

It’s not just two people. For some reason, today I and everyone around me felt a little restless. It’s just that I feel awkward wearing a skirt and no gym pants.

It’s really embarrassing, but starting tomorrow, I’ll have to pick up stockings or knee socks and wear them. The cold wind touches my bare legs, and I feel cold.

However, despite the harsh weather, there was one advantage to this cold weather. I feel a little relaxed and my posture is comfortable, but the cold wind blows in between my legs. It could be said that you can’t help but close your legs automatically.

Thanks to this, unlike last time, today I didn’t get nagged while sitting.

“It’s been a while!”

“It’s been a while. I saw you this morning too, right? Raon, did you doze off again?”

“No? Army, it’s not about you, it’s about your school uniform. Because I forgot in the morning.”

What kind of novel sound is this? Of course, I wore this on the first day of school, so more than two months have passed.

“The school uniform is not much different from what you usually wear, right? I just wasn’t wearing gym pants.”

“That’s true too. But the difference is really bigger than I thought.”

“The difference is big? Which part?”

“Hmm~. I don’t know!”

Raon speaks with a bright smile. It was an answer typical of a sensualist group that values sensation rather than theory. Although I inadvertently burst out laughing.

“You came here to eat, right? What about Hwain and Jeongyoung?”

“Two people said they were going to a meeting, so we said we should eat first.”

Apparently, the two people were caught up in individual interviews where they provided individual student care and statements about the incident. Unfortunately, I’m having no luck doing it during lunch time.

Then, let’s look for bobbin or marie as appropriate. I was thinking that when I got up from my seat.

“Now, wait a minute!”

The person who stood in front of me and Raon was Park Oh-hu, one of Samjang’s team. No, when I looked closely, not only was it afternoon, but several other men were also coming.

“Why? As I said before, today’s soccer game is about passing.”

“Not that way. You made a bet, bet.”

aha. Now that I think about it, I was so focused on Seoyoon that I forgot about it, but I made a bet with most of the boys in my class.

Looking at some guys hitting the ground in the corner and venting their anger, it seems like the kids coming out now are the ones who met the conditions. Like exceeding my written test score or something.

I accepted the bet with Kang Seo-yoon because there was a contract spell and I felt personally sorry. So, there is no need to listen to this now that the exam is over.

Still, I’m not asking for something as embarrassing as Kang Seo-yoon. As a friend, I don’t mind accepting a request like this.

“Okay. You were practicing grappling this afternoon, right? Kangho had one lunch and Taekwon—─”

“You mean that. Can we all switch to grappling practice?”

Everyone? I glanced at them as if confirming, and everyone nodded with their necks broken.

Honestly, I was quite surprised. We all know that this may not be of much help compared to the time invested.

Still, the reason I asked you to practice was… .

“Yes, you are also angry. Was it painful that an accident happened at the academy and you couldn’t do anything?”

“Huh? Uh, well… . That’s roughly what it feels like?”

“Okay, leave it to me. I will teach you to become a grappling specialist in a short period of time!”

“Of course, I thought ARMY would show up like that!”

“I believed it, hey!”

Basically, heroes rarely fall victim to grappling, but they have the know-how to use less magical energy in the process of escaping. In addition, it could be quite useful for self-defense when magic power is low, as Kang Seo-yoon was caught off guard this time.

He rants, reaching up and patting Ohu on the back. The other kids also cheered and showed their motivation. It would be a great way to brighten up the mood of the class today.

Okay, let’s work hard today!

“Is that okay?”

“Huh? What?”

“I was mumbling things like I was fooled and I was scammed.”

“Oh, I guess you heard it wrong.”

What the gangster was pointing at was a group of male students practicing in a corner of the gym. In order to understand the movement of the muscles, I looked like I was tangled up in half my underwear, and I was pouting—hmm. It was great to see that he was passionate.

There’s no way those guys would say something like that. Until we gathered at this gym, our eyes were sparkling with anticipation. When I told them that from now on we would be practicing in pairs, I was so happy that I screamed.

“Hey! That’s a different story! Ami said she would come and teach me!”

“What is that sweatshirt in the first place? Where is the skirt? Skirt!”

“How would I know that! It’s absolutely clear that things got weird because you guys got involved!”

If I eavesdropped with a bit of magic, I could still hear the cheers of the motivated guys. Well, as expected, a student must have that kind of passion.

“You also came at a good time.”

There was also a guy who decided to skip out in order to create an odd number in the middle. At that time, the bully came looking for me, so I told him that if he got out, I would call the revenge spirit and guess the number, and he quickly became calm.

“Well, I just came because you invited me. But little one, are you angry?”

“Haha, joke too. What’s there for me to be angry about when you’re rolling around so hard?”

Really, honestly, I’m not angry at all. This is the nature of boys at that time. I have also experienced it.

In the first place, why did they think I would personally stick with them and teach them? There’s no way a man would like a situation where he gets into physical contact with another man, right?

Surely he wasn’t thinking of absurd syllogisms such as ‘If a girl were to be reluctant to touch skin with a man’, ‘I don’t like looking like a girl’, that is, ‘I don’t mind touching skin to skin with a man’. It would have been so.

haha.

… As expected, I will have to double my training amount later.

“The expression on your face is scary. So, what did you call me for?”

As Yangachi said, I was the one who called Yangachi because I had something to tell him. I’m sorry to waste your time, so I started right away with the main topic.

This is a well-known fact to my acquaintances, but I have no dating experience. But! However, this does not mean that they lack experience in dating. This is because I have been watching from the side all these years.

And according to that experience, men and women who are attracted to each other usually get better results if they get together quickly. If we let things go on for a long time, there were many cases where an accident occurred or one side was intercepted, and the situation became strange.

“In other words, based on the above conclusion, there is one woman I would like to recommend to you──”

“Is that Kang Seo-yoon?”

I flinch.

“ㄴ, when did I say that!?”

“If you lie, the horn moves.”

I gasp and grab my horns. Of course, if it were a healthy horn, there was no way it could move. You fooled me, you idiot!

… Well, enough of the jokes. It was so obvious that it was strange not knowing. Because there was no girl other than Kang Seo-yoon that I would want to date him.

“You got the premise wrong from the beginning. Where on earth do you think they like each other? It’s stupid not to know Seoyoon’s attitude, but I’ve never expressed any interest in her.”

“You show interest in almost any woman.”

The biggest reason why Yangachi has a bad reputation at school is because of the rumors about him dating like an octopus. And as you can see from the woman who came to school the other day, most of the rumors are true.

It’s rare for someone to stare at you as if they’re going to kill you like Kang Seo-yoon did last time, but when you talk to the gangster, you often feel a strange gaze. Sometimes, a girl from another class would take me out, arm in arm, as if to show me off.

If it is meant as a ‘check’, I can only say that the target was completely wrong. Rather, I would like them to stop acting like they are showing off because they are taking damage from the other side. They say all the powerful guys will die.

… Hmm. Because of my anger, the conversation went somewhere else for a while. Anyway, most of the time, he gives the OK sign to any reasonably pretty woman. So, even if you end up with Kang Seo-yoon, there won’t be any problem.

When I said that, it was a perfect night.

“Aya! Why are you hitting me!?”

“Say the right thing.”

It’s unfair!

“Besides, you only call most people things like ‘you’ or ‘he’. If you call me Seoyoon or something, doesn’t that give you a sense of friendliness?”

Even when I asked him what he was going to use it for, he just laughed and ignored the ‘debt’ and spent it on Kang Seo-yoon to the point where it was pointless. Whether it’s the way he strangely avoids you, the way he ignores you even though you know he likes you, or if you look at him from the side, it’s obvious that he’s paying attention.

Kang Seo-yoon is a young lady from a famous family. If you don’t get it right now, you don’t know how things will turn out.

“There is a reason, kid.”

“So what is the situation? If anything, this brother can help me.”

“You sound like a big brother. Even if Ada, who has never been in a relationship before, helps her, it will only be a hindrance.”

Ugh. I flinched a little as I was suddenly hit with the facts.

Taking advantage of that moment of flinching, the gangster suddenly extended his hand towards me. Although it’s not exactly me, it’s the wall behind me.

And the sight of the bully opening his mouth, saying, “Oh my gosh,” gets closer and closer. Even if I tried to step back and increase the distance, there was nowhere to retreat because there was a wall behind me.

“Did you know that if all women like you, you too become a target? If it’s a way to call you, you’re pretty special too.”

Wow. With a heavy sound, Yangachi’s body was bent into a straight position. Wow, it went right into the liver.

“Hey, cough, this is no joke, it hurts.”

“That’s because I hit him until it hurt. Then why does the guy suddenly show his face?”

No, really, I had goosebumps running down my spine just now. It was even more disgusting than when dealing with quite a few insect-type monsters. Rather, at this point, I think it went beyond disgust and was closer to horror.

“It was a joke, but isn’t it a bit too much? ?”

“Less hit, really? Do you know how it feels to hit a wall for the first time in your life with a guy?”

I just said this once, but now that I think about it, it really is true. Great anger rises up again. Wouldn’t it be possible to take a few more hits as extenuating circumstances?

“Good job ARMY, beat them more!”

” They said they were popular, but it didn’t work for ARMY, right? It’s merciless, right?”

“I haven’t tried it yet!”

Guilty verdicts poured out from the jurors who were tangled with joints on the other side. It was a passionate reaction that made me wonder if there was a guy who lost the girl he had a crush on to a gangster.

In the end, the unanimous decision resulted in Yangachi getting his butt kicked and being kicked out of the gym. The gangster left, saying he would wait and see, but for a guy who said he’d wait and see, there wasn’t a single scary guy, heng.

It wasn’t until much later that I began to think about the possibility that the sudden wall bang was a grand remark.
