Chapter 216
Chapter 216: Cute Revenge (1)
Each person valued different things. In my case, I valued survival.
I thought getting on Kim Hyunsung’s bus was my top priority, and I moved desperately to survive with my lack of talent. I threw the dice and visited Cha Hee-ra, risking my life, and even had to beat a crazy old man who didn’t have the right disposition.
I knew that I shouldn’t belittle other people, and I knew that I shouldn’t ignore the different values each of us had, but honestly, Yoo Ahyoung’s worries didn’t really touch me.
‘I understand, but…’
Of course, I could understand. She was now in her early twenties.
She needed a safe place to put her mind since she was risking her life all the time in a place where there were all kinds of monsters. It certainly had merit.
First of all, the promise of being lovers contributed to each other’s mental stability.
I couldn’t understand all of Yoo Ahyoung’s thoughts, but perhaps the reason she was able to withstand the tutorial dungeon was that there was someone who she could mentally depend on.
‘In my case, is it possible to project it onto Kim Hyunsung?’
I could also remember the stability I felt from our warm returner. It may be a little different from Yoo Ahyoung, but if I were to think about struggling not to fall off of Kim Hyunsung…
‘Now I can understand…’
Things had just gotten a lot more interesting.
If a third party realized that Kim Hyunsung was a returner and that third party tried to take Kim Hyunsung from me, I would go crazy.
As I glanced at my side, I could see Yoo Ahyoung looking nervous.
“Are you really okay with this?”
“Yes. It’s okay. I’m a little sorry for Oppa, but… Listening to Deokgu Oppa, there are a few things that bother me. I want to check it with my own eyes.”
“You may be a little shocked…”
“I can bear it. Would I not be seeing his true nature? And the conversation will be inaudible to other people, right?”
“Yes. I’m sure of it. Of course, it won’t work for those sensitive to magic or warriors with acute senses, but this is a training center. At best, only the instructors will be able to see or hear us. The attack team won’t be able to see it, too.”
“It’s incredible—this thing called magic. You can even make your body transparent. No, in this case, isn’t the Instructor Jung Hayan the best one at this sort of thing?”
“No one else can handle this kind of magic so perfectly.”
In addition to attack magic, if there were another kind of magic that Jung Hayan could do well, it would, of course, be stalking magic.
Jung Hayan was a specialist who had unrivaled authority in such types of magic as location tracking, invisibility, and sleep magic. She was so good that even Magic Guild said that we should open up a school in honor of her.
‘She must have even developed magic that I did not know about.’
It was just a hypothesis, but considering that she was even checking my heartbeat, it was a probable story.
“Anyway, it would be better to wait. Let’s wait while chatting.”
“Do you think he will come?”
“Trainee Yoo Ahyoung should hope for that person not to come.”
It was already not a good thing to come to an empty classroom after the class was over.
“Yes…”
As the prospect of giving up made itself known to me, the door of the lecture room opened.
However, the people that came in were not who I expected them to be.
These people looked familiar, and soon, I began to realize who they were.
‘Han Sora’s maids.’
Of course, they were now playing a leading role in harassing Han Sora.
They held Han Sora herself, wearing bandages around her arms and legs and wearing an eye band.
‘Oh, my…’
I didn’t activate the invisibility magic to see this kind of thing, but I felt worried about being a witness to such an event, all the same.
‘Yoo Ahyoung can’t know about that…’
Externally, it was said that Han Sora inadvertently entered into Jung Hayan’s magic laboratory and had an accident. Of course, I could have said she was punished for trying to do something with me, but seeing how Han Sora looked now; there was no way I could announce that.
‘Since she was talking about sexual harassment or something, I gave her a lesson!’
Of course, the innocent Jung Hayan was disqualified as an instructor for careless management of the magic laboratory.
Han Sora, a thief who tried to steal Jung Hayan’s magic with a small amount of consolation money, will not be charged for trespassing on Jung Hayan’s laboratory, showing the broad generosity of Blue to the trainees.
There was still a little time left, so it didn’t matter if they came in here, but if she heard that maid 1, maid 2, and maid 3 were talking about the sexual harassment case, it would get awkward.
‘Since they received 100 gold each, they wouldn’t talk.’
However, it didn’t feel nice seeing them up to no good.
When Han Sora was pushed away, she staggered and hit the corner at the end of the classroom.
This, of course, elicited giggles from the three other girls.
“You look good. You pretended to be a queen, and now you’re completely disabled, Han Sora-ssi. Pfft.”
“I knew it since you were walking around so cockily. Instructor Lee Kiyoung was right. Originally, the kids that pretend the most are the first to get fucked.”
“…”
“Look at her expression. Look at her expression.”
“Let your expression loose, bitch.”
“Maybe you don’t like us. How could you be happy? The maids who used to suck up to you are now looking down at you. It would be annoying enough, right? Inside, you must be cursing us a lot. But, Sora-ssi, it’s time to know your place now!”
“…”
It was a little embarrassing to see the maids beating Han Sora. Of course, I knew she was being bullied, but I didn’t expect it to be this severe.
“Hey. Don’t hit her too hard.”
“It’s okay. No one will notice. You just need to hit around the area with the bandages.”
“No, she can’t die like that. She’s not in good condition. She can’t even walk…”
“Don’t worry. Originally, these strong bitches have an extra physical strength to be beaten up.”
“She won’t even scream. She’s really strong. Hey, Sora Eunni. Please talk. Yeah? Haven’t you thought we’d be more upset if you come out this way?”
“…”
“Hey. Bring me that.”
“Ah… Okay.”
Of course, I knew why they were acting this way.
‘It’s because of their sense of inferiority.’
Unfortunately, all four were students in my alchemy class. In Han Sora’s case, if the magic circuit was smashed and she was forced to choose alchemy, the other three students would be in a position to complete the alchemy course with no choice.
The interesting part was that Han Sora had the best grades among them.
In the first place, she was smart, she was quick to understand, and when I saw her desperate focus, I think this result was inevitable.
‘She is strong.’
I couldn’t say that she was talented, but she was definitely desperate. Perhaps these girls weren’t happy about this fact.
Yoo Ahyoung spoke to me nervously, yet I shook my head.
“S-Shouldn’t we stop them? Instructor Lee Kiyoung?”
“No. Let’s wait and see. Of course, the three trainees will be disciplined, and we’ll take different measures with Han Sora later. It’s not a good thing to be found out that we were hiding here with invisibility magic.”
“Ah!”
“There are things I want to check personally…”
“What? What did you say?”
“It’s nothing.”
Our voices did not reach Han Sora and the other wenches, anyway.
It was hard to understand why we were whispering, but I had to focus on the situation happening in front of me for now. It was because I saw one of the maids was carrying a bag.
“What is this?”
“…”
“Isn’t this something you saw a lot? Sora Eunni?”
“Give… Give it to me.”
“Our Sora Eunni has finally opened her mouth wide. Pfft. Why? You ignored this so much, and now it has become precious?”
‘Wow… These are real demons…’
One of the maids brought out a personal alchemy kit. It was a cheap alchemy kit distributed to students for practice.
“I said, give it to me!”
Han Sora, who had not resisted until now, lifted her body and rushed to them, but there was no way she could take the object from the hands of those who could move normally. I felt bad for her.
“I said… give it to me!”
“Your impression of her is damn funny! Pu-ha-ha-ha!”
“I told you to give it to me!”
“I told you to give it to meee! I don’t want to. I’m not giving you. Hey, take it!”
“Yes!”
They then began to pass each other the kit, making a game out of it until Han Sora finally managed to snag it for herself. Of course, this only resulted in the others grabbing onto her.
As she refused to let go of the kit, I could tell she was quite strong.
“Our Sora Eunni is really strong. Hey, let’s destroy that.”
“Huh? Really? It’s a fixture that came out for practice.”
“It doesn’t matter. She will do it by herself. Whether she gets another one or not, that’s her responsibility, and it’s not our concern. She will have broken it because she was careless.”
“Don’t…”
“Don’t do what? Sora Eunni, are you telling me not to break this? But I want to, what should I do? You once said that it was trash from manufacturing workers, but now you are hugging it as if it were a treasure. Hey, grab it!”
“I told you not to. Sorry. I was wrong.”
“It’s too late to apologize, Sora. Pfft.”
I bet those three were born with qualities that would make them great villains in the future. The whole situation felt so ridiculous that I couldn’t help but let out a laugh.
As the three girls tried to smash the kit, Han Sora did her best to protect it from further harm. It was like seeing Park Deokgu protect me with all he had. However…
‘There’s no way she can block it.’
Eventually, two of them caught Han Sora directly, and the other started to step on the alchemy kit with excitement palpable in her actions. The kit broke easily, seeing as it was cheap.
“Don’t do it! I told you not to! You!”
“Nope? Nope? Pfft…”
“Don’t do it, I was wrong!”
“No? Hey. Sora Eunni is crying.”
“Sniff… Don’t do it…”
Looking at Han Sora, who was now crying while grabbing the broken bag, the girls slowly calmed down. Eventually, they all turned around.
“It should have been that way from the beginning, Sora. Now you know your place, right? Stop being cocky. Pretending to work hard and getting compassion is disgusting… Let’s go, girls.”
“Oh. It’s already this late. Sora Eunni, we’ll be going now.”
“Pooey! Get off to Asgard! You one-eyed Odin-bitch!”
“Pu-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha. She said Odin!”
Of course, Han Sora did not follow them. After checking the inside of the bag, she cried even more, which made my heart squeeze.
“Waaaahhh…”
It was then that the door of the classroom once again opened. Yoo Ahyoung’s eyes widened.
The next batch of tormentors had come in.
