“Where are you going to sleep?”

“hmm.”

“why?”

I couldn’t hide my feelings of regret as I looked at Rebecca, who seemed to be secretly hoping that she would ask me to sleep with her.

“I don’t think I’ll be able to sleep today.”

“Sleep… Wow! Are you crazy?! There are so many kids with sharp ears!”

Why does he have this strange misunderstanding on his own?

“No, I’m not saying I’m going to sleep with you, but I have some karma that I’ve accumulated.”

“Karma?”

Yes.

I shouldn’t have made such a provocation.

“Baine is now turning his attention to strengthening.”

“???”

Rebecca, who was confused, asked, wondering if she had remembered what I had said.

“Is it because of what you said?”

“…I think that’s the case. He won’t make it to the round of 12 on his own.”

“I thought I was really okay because I said I was okay, but it seems I wasn’t.”

“I provoked you too much.”

It is true that I am a sinner.

Baine was seriously scratched when asked if the strengthening made him sleepy.

When he was provoked by me, he said it was okay, but when the children were away, he came alone and requested an all-night reinforcement battle.

I can’t help but say that I won’t do something when I have accumulated karma.

“So you two are going to stay up all night now? Because of what you said?”

Rebecca, who heard the situation, showed a negative attitude, saying it was ridiculous.

“You can sleep and wake up tomorrow.”

“I got scratched for something I said, but will he listen to that?”

“I’ll talk to Baine.”

“It’s okay, don’t do it. I can’t sleep anyway, so there’s no problem with killing time with strengthening.”

After Ariando succeeded in strengthening the round of 12.

Children who were unable to strengthen the beads tried one after another to strengthen the five stars.

There were no children who were lucky enough to be strengthened to 5 stars like Vine, and all of them successfully achieved 5 stars within 2-3 rounds.

Surprisingly, the person who failed the most in strengthening the beads was Fran, not Ariando.

Isn’t this what ‘reversion to the mean’ is all about?

Since I cheated on strengthening my weapons, I’m saying that I’m going to get back to square one in this way.

“Huh? You were with the teacher.”

Baine kept his promise to come out to the living room when the kids started to sleep, and came over after seeing that we were together.

“I heard you said you wouldn’t sleep and keep strengthening?”

“Yes, I don’t want to be in the round of 12 by myself.”

“If you’re upset because he said something strange, I don’t think there’s any need for that. There’s still plenty of time.”

All the other kids had finished strengthening, so Baine was in a situation where he could monopolize the strengthening.

“No. “I want to finish quickly and have fun like other kids.”

“Okay… .”

Rebaka groans as if she is embarrassed by Baine’s attitude, which is more decisive than expected.

Early morning when everyone else is sleeping.

She seemed reluctant to leave the man and the girl alone.

“Because they just grow up? “It’s just reinforcement, so why are you so worried?”

“You idiot! Why are you provoking a child who was so quiet? why!”

“Hmm.”

I was speechless due to Rebecca’s harsh treatment and lowered my head.

“I’m fine. “That’s not why I said we would strengthen it.”

“You don’t have to lie and say you’re there for him! Because this is his fault. “If I heard something like that, I wouldn’t be able to sleep, right?”

“Stop whining and go back to sleep.”

“do you want to die?”

Rebecca held my neck with her hands! catch

If her vitals were caught in the hands of an awakened person, her life would be in danger, but I calmly patted her buttocks.

Because I knew that the only way to soothe a cat in heat was to pat its butt.

“Well then, why don’t you stay with us all night?”

“I don’t like it! why me! joy!”

The words were humming, but Rebaka didn’t move away from my hand patting her butt.

“Surely you can’t finish the round of 12 until the sun rises in the morning? “We will launch it as quickly as possible and put it to sleep.”

“Ugh! Baine, if this guy does something strange, yell at him right away. got it?”

“That won’t happen, but if it does, I’ll do as you said. But I think it would be enough for me to subdue it…”

I was slightly scratched by Baine’s words without realizing it.

Even though I knew that it was a fact that if I fought that delicate-looking girl, I would lose.

‘You reap what you sow, you idiot.’

I spoke after cursing myself coolly.

“Am I that untrustworthy? “Why are you treating me like this?”

“If this has already happened, work as hard as you can and make it to the round of 12. got it?”

“okay. Float. “It’s really going to float.”

It’s not something I can control, but I thought it would be better to just say I’d let it float for now.

I’m starting to wonder if it’s because I’m worried about Baine, or if there’s another reason.

“I’m sorry. Are you reflecting? Should I apologize again? Vine, I’m really sorry. “I made a huge mistake with my words.”

“It’s really okay! I’ve told you several times that it’s okay. And the boss didn’t say anything out of the ordinary. Because it was actually true.”

“no… .”

What am I to say if you say that here?

Listening to Baine’s words made me feel like I was sitting on a thorn cushion again.

I will never do such a provocation again.

Who would have thought it would get scratched this much?

“Such a good boy!”

Wow!

“evil!”

In the end, I received a cool welcome from Rebecca.

He then puts his hand on my shoulder and taps it as a warning, as if telling me to be nice.

‘I feel like I’m being threatened by Iljin.’

Rebecca seemed like we weren’t going to give up, so she sighed a little and said,

“I don’t know anything about real strengthening.”

“Don’t you think it’s a good thing you don’t know?”

Because she had seen Ariando making a fuss because of Ganghwa, Rebecca couldn’t hastily say no to what I said.

“I’m definitely grateful for that. It was dizzying to see what the kids were doing. I think it was a good idea to leave it to you. “If I had done it myself, I would have been sitting next to Vine.”

Surprisingly, he was making a cool and objective evaluation of himself.

He knew why I told him to leave the weapons to me from the beginning.

“Don’t do it for too long, just do it in moderation and let it sleep. got it?”

“I’m really fine, so please go in and sleep first.”

“He’s the one who had a hard time making it rain here today.”

“I got it!”

I take very good care of my children’s bodies because I don’t want anyone to criticize me as a teacher.

In the end, after raising her voice, Rebecca entered her room with a lot of regret left behind.

‘I don’t know why it’s so vague.’

When Baine said that he would continue to reinforce even in the early morning, the other kids cheered without saying anything and went to their respective rooms.

I barely managed to get Rebecca into the room.

I sat Baine down next to me and began preparing for strengthening in earnest.

You see, didn’t I need to take some time to talk to Vine?

‘Now is a perfect time to talk.’

Since the reinforcement time does not end in 1-2 minutes, it is good for open conversation.

This time created through my karma surprisingly turned out to be an opportunity for me.

‘From my perspective, there is nothing wrong with running before the destruction of Ganghwa at dawn.’

As much as I had to share personal stories, it was nice not having anyone else around.

Plus, I was planning on asking questions that would make Vine feel uncomfortable.

“This is entirely due to my mood, but it feels like reinforcements are more effective if I do it early in the morning, right? So, we will definitely be able to make it to the round of 12 today.”

“I really hope so.”

Vine’s success in the round of 12 was something he wanted to do, but I also wanted to do it quickly.

Except for Baine, all unique equipment have reached the top 12, and the 5-star character enhancements for Shine, Fran, and Ariando have also been completed.

If Weinman gave me the 12th class, my standard 1 growth would have been completed.

Gabrielle and Erintina are in the second stage by my standards.

Once the growth of the 1st group is over, we will focus on the growth of the 2nd group SSR.

Of course, we still need to pay attention to the individual scenarios of the first generation students.

‘Even if you just finish strengthening to 5 stars and top 12, you’ve done a lot.’

I said, holding out my hand to Baine.

“Then shall we begin? “Can you take out the magic wand?”

“I’m sorry I think I’m being too stubborn. “If you get tired after doing it for 1-2 hours, it’s okay to sleep and wake up.”

What Rebecca was worried about was whether Baine was infected.

Now Vine is trying to change his tune.

“no. Thanks to Fran, my condition has improved so much that I can’t sleep. On the contrary, I think it’s nice to have something to spend time with. “If it weren’t for you, I think I would have been staring at the sky all night.”

Even though the kids saw Baine suffering from side effects, they didn’t hesitate to strengthen the beads.

The side effects could be alleviated by strengthening over time, but he insisted on strengthening to 5 stars at once.

I guess they think that’s cool.

And thanks to the side effects from Fran, I had full physical strength.

‘I heard that she only does good things for others, even with side effects.’

A side effect of Franc was that the children’s condition continued to recover as their energy naturally radiated outwards.

As expected from the treatment industry, the side effects are quite mild.

If Fran was merely replenishing the stamina of those around him, Shine’s case was a bit unexpected.

He went outside alone and came back 3 hours later looking fine. When people asked him what he was doing, he said he ran in a trance for 3 hours.

Then, at some point, he felt better and came back.

‘But the most absurd thing was Ariando.’

Lastly, Ariando completely disappeared for about two hours and his presence could not be found.

Ariando’s voice can be heard in the air, but we cannot actually see her.

Ariando had a hard time regaining his presence for a while.

“Please take care of me.”

Baine hands me his magic wand with anticipation.

I will keep running until the moment comes when Baine’s Magic Wand, which is still only level 10, is transformed into level 12.

‘Because that’s before destruction.’

What does it mean before destruction?

We won’t stop until we reach the end of the round of 12.

“Is it okay to sit here?”

“I like the whole place. So, it doesn’t matter where you do it.”

“Then let’s begin.”

Kaaang~!

Strengthening begins with a clear sound.

Unfortunately, the first strengthening of the magic wand after a long time was a failure.
