Level up from class F

“My father……. Professor. I……. Are you a monster?”

Xi Hyun's eyes turned red.

“Do we look like monsters? ”

Leonid asked.

“Me and Michael. Do I look like a monster to you? ”

Sihyun did not answer. And I slowly stepped back.

“Si-hyun!”

Leonid wanted to appease him, but he didn't know what more he could say to him now.

“Everyone's worried about you. Everyone loves you. All I could think about was protecting you. ”

Michael said.

I knew he meant what he said. But apart from that, he felt confused in his own shaking world.

Sihyun left them and started running alone.

“Ahn Si-hyun!”

You hear Leonid calling for you. However, he did not stop.

* * *

Sihyun went into the forest.

It was a forest between Hunter Academy and Hyundai High School. A dense forest forms the sea. The thick leaves made the sky invisible to small pieces, and once it entered it, it was dark even during the day.

After running for a while, Shi Hyun thought he had gone too far. It was easy to get lost if you came in like this. All around, there were trees and no roads.

"You've done something stupid! ’

Sihyun was angry with myself. You got lost in the woods running around angry. I thought something good happened to me.

If I didn't show up until it was dark, people would come looking for me, but I had no intention of making things that big. Occasionally, a group of strays appeared in the forest, and each time people were mobilized to find them. Usually Hunter Academy professors look for it. He didn't want to be rescued by Michael and Leonid as a fool.

Thinking that I should go out on my own, Shi Hyun tried to find a way. The person who built this place in school complained about what he thought. He thought he was Uncle Yong Ha.

‘The mind is not a place to protect the weak. A place to raise strong people. ’

I remembered what my uncle used to say.

I thought I had to find a way, but I walked for a long time. The smartphone didn't explode there for some reason. He thought he was completely trapped in the maze. As he gave up walking and stopped, I heard a faint sound somewhere.

Sihyun slowly headed there. There was a woman standing there. All I could see was the back, but I could see that it was a woman with a thin, soft line. He was tall for a woman with short hair.

The woman is extending one arm and a gritty chakra is clumping from her fingertips. Sihyun stared at it, dazzled. The woman lets out a deep sigh and shakes her head, as if not working well while trying something. And I slowly turned toward him.

He was younger than I thought. Although he may be older than Se-hyun, he doesn't seem to be more than twenty or twenty-one years old.

“Ah……. I didn't steal it. I'm lost, if you're surprised to see me. ”

He tries to apologize, but the opponent doesn't seem surprised at all.

“It doesn't matter. I can see that you're lost. ”

“By the way, who are you doing this here? Did you just train Chakra? ”

“No. I tried to do what Professor Leonid did, but I couldn't. ”

“Professor Leonid? You know the professor?”

“Hunter Academy boys, I hope you know that. ”

“Yes? Are you a professor? ”

“Why? Is it too quiet for a professor? ”

“No, that's not what I meant. You look very young.”

“Being a professor at Hunter Academy doesn't matter how old you are. Twenty-four at least. ”

“Twenty-four? I looked younger. ”

“This is Yoon Hae-min. She teaches monstrous ecology. You? I haven't seen you at Hunter Academy. ”

“I'm a Hyundai High School student. I'm Ahn Si-hyun.”

“Ahn Si-hyun?”

Yoon Hae-min tilted her head and looked at him.

“Do you?”

Sihyun could now understand Yoon Hae-min's gaze at once.

So far, people who had seen him have felt familiar with him and easily liked him without knowing why he had such thoughts. The men who felt that he was a competitor felt a strange fever, but not women or adults. It seemed like all the questions were solved just then. By looking at the erase and indefinite faces seen from him, people would think his face was familiar.

It was not easy to think that it was because his face resembled a erase, and they seemed to think that it was more comfortable than a child they had ever seen.

Haemin smiled rather than speaking. He looked like he knew what had happened. However, she did not understand her expression.

I thought Professor Leonid or Professor Michaels would never talk about him.

“You want to brag about your wounds? Yeah, well, that's a privilege for your age. But nowadays, it's better to end briefly. ”

Haemin said.

“Yes?”

I smiled at the deep end of my eyelids. It was a sweet smile. I thought that Professor Yoon Hae-min would not make it look like that to anyone. The first impression looked cold, and to be more honest, it didn't seem very compassionate.

Sihyun had nothing to say, so he just stood there and looked at Yoon Hae-min.

“When are you going out? I think I'm lost, so I'm going to have to follow you. ”

“I'm not going out there. ”

“Yes?”

“I'm kidding.”

Yoon Hae-min smiled.

Seeing that smile like there was nothing to worry about, I felt relieved for no reason, and I laughed as well.

“If you want to train for chakra, I can help you. ”

“I'm not a student at Hunter Academy. ”

“Yes, I know. You said you were in Hyundai High School. You said An-hyun. Even though my memory is bad, I haven't forgotten what I just heard. ”

“Then why are you telling me to train Chakra? ”

“It's a secret. Especially since you seem to be a wounded soul today. I teach monstrous ecology, but I'm actually a predator. ”

“Predator?”

“Predictor. Prophecy. You don't know everything, you don't know everyone. Sometimes I hear other voices inside me when I meet someone. There's a voice in my head that speaks out of nowhere. ”

“ ……. ”

It was a bad thing to get lost in the forest, but I thought it was a really bad thing to get lost in the forest and meet a crazy woman. I also felt that I shouldn't have believed her when she said she was Professor Hunter Academy.

Yoon Hae-min laughed loudly as she thought she needed to find out the way out of the forest on her own.

“I'm not a crazy woman. The reason I don't talk about this stuff well is because every time I say it, a hundred people look like you. Anyhoo, An-hyun. If you think there's someone like me, your situation won't be any easier to endure. Sometimes people get up from eating other people's misery. I don't think I'm that unhappy. You're afraid you're gonna hate someone you don't want to hate? You don't know what you're feeling, and you're scared. Misses or resents.People you've missed so much, you're offended. More painful than the thought that you weren't the only one sad. I want to be crooked, but you know too well. They're still risking their lives for you. ”

“I never asked you to. I've been told I'm strong. I can help. It wasn't my choice. I would never have made that decision. I've been dying to see it! ”

“The time will come. Ahn Si-hyun. Much faster than I thought. ”

“ ……. ”

“Perfect timing. You got lost in the woods. The wind is blowing and the leaves are hitting each other, making noise. There's no better place to cry than here. Will you come out crying? I'll be there first. ”

Yoon Hae-min almost said that he would do it.

“Have you forgotten that I'm trapped? ”

“I thought you'd be unconscious and sad because you're so blinded, but you're not. ”

Yoon Hae-min said as if she knew everything from the beginning. However, the look on his face made him seem to have forgotten it.

“Don't embarrass Professor Leonid and Professor Michaels. You're too old to cry out loud about wanting comfort, right? The coupon seems to have expired 15 years ago. ”

Sihyun sighed.

“Am I lucky? seeing as how your abilities work on me. ”

“That must have helped. But don't expect too much from me. I don't know everything, and I don't know it all the time. Especially not about me. I wouldn't even be here if I knew what I was trying to do today. ”

“What happens to me now? Where do you think you'll be in ten minutes? ”

“I don't know. But I know where you'll be tomorrow night. ”

“Where is it? Don't tell me this is it. ”

“ ……. ”

“Why aren't you saying anything? ”

“You told me not to tell. ”

“I'll be here tomorrow? ”

“You're like a child with a great mother. It's her power, not yours. You can always count on me to step up for you. But you can't just stand there by yourself. ”

“Are you talking about my chakra? ”

Haemin nods.

“You mean you can take care of the training? ”

“Don't you think you have much to learn from me? ”

“No, that's not why. Doesn't it get darker in the evening? ”

“Do you want to come at this hour? ”

“There are many other places. Why here? ”

“You don't know why this place was created, do you? ”

“Yes?”

“These are trees that don't die naturally. Spread the seed and grow it again. That's why the forest is so dense. So here, you can practice any attack you want against monsters. The tree will grow back where it fell. ”

Seeing her face as if she didn't know what she was talking about, she simply smiled and pulled out a knife from the sheath she was wearing on her thigh.

The Haemin's blade was blown three times the size when the Haemin pressed something. Haemin grabs the middle spot, swinging her knife, and runs toward one place. With Chakra in her arms, she runs up the tree.

Sihyun ran under the tree where she ran up to make sure she didn't miss the seaweed that was going up the tree.

The branches of the tree fall apart, but they do not stop for a long time. When he looked up, he saw the seaweed going from the top of a satisfactory tree to another tree.

While I didn't know what was going on, I heard a hissing sound, and the tree next to him split in two.

The sea does not stop there, but turns to the tree next to it. The seaweed's weapon spreads with blue energy, cutting down the trees as it is. The blade pierces through the tree. The tree doesn't budge. I didn't seem to know that my back had just been cut by a knife.

It wasn't even a thin tree. It was enough for two adult men to hold out their arms as long as they could.
