Finally, after a long 100 days, the ceremony to decorate the end of the user academy rose.

The central management organization was able to keep the promise, as they had promised to push it into the parking lot in the first place. You've given everyone a fair promotion to the clans that participated as instructors.

Such opportunities were applied without exception even at the graduation ceremony. Dare to delete and shrink corners that only take mid-time, and open new corners. The name of the new corner was a question and answer designed to help educators ask themselves questions about the clan.

After all, it wasn't a bad story for the instructors, since he was going to give them another chance to promote.

Of course, there is a 12-minute time limit on the corners of each clan, which is similar to the time it will end with the initial graduation ceremony. Then it would be better to send it out rather than wait boredly.

Not only that, the additional terms and conditions of the Central Administrative Organization allowed the unanimous passage of the opening of the Q&A corner. The condition is....

“Yes, perhaps our Hanul Clan is still just a clan. But that's all there is to it. Even though it's still just a small clan, I believe it's an advanced clan.... Raise your hand if you have any intention of developing a clan here with me. ”

Large auditorium, central management organizations and trainees sit and stare at the stage. On the center stage, a chubby man was vomiting hot stools with a pathetic matchless face. However, despite the fierce in-house torso, the audience's reaction was 0%. I don't really care.

There is a subtle despair in the face of the man looking around the audience. But that was also a moment.

Soon, the man who breaks his mouth slowly straightens his posture. Then he knelt on his knees and shouted in a loud voice.

“The Hanul Clan is eager to take you! ”

A series of users who were standing behind the man then kneel along the chubby man.

Speechless.

It was only then that things began to react in the audience. However, it is almost absurd, and it is never a good response. The man's face was filled with grief if he heard the audience's reaction.

Whatever the circumstances, that was not a good choice. because this corner was to show off to educators in a single word. As an instructor, of course.

Only users at the back of the company can see it now. They are users from the Hanul Clan who have been specially invited for this corner. In other words, it is a place for members of your clan to promote together, not just as instructors. That is the condition of the central management organization 'The corner also allows the entry of fewer than 8 clans, except for the instructor.’.

Such showmanship or spectacular performance should show that our clan is like this, but the man has the opposite attitude. I don't know if he intended to move the students' minds with his sincere appeal, but it's not a good way. You can tell by the response.

In the end, the nine Hanul clans, including the chubby guy, left the country alone. After they go downstairs, a heavy voice echoes through the large auditorium.

- The next Q&A will be the Mercenary Clan. Quiet, all of you.

At that moment, the air flow in the auditorium suddenly changed. Boring airflow suddenly subsides and curiosity and anticipation fill the Great Hall. The trainees stared at the center stage, head out together. The attitude of the Hanul Clan was dramatically compared to that of the Hanul Clan.

I have no choice. In all seriousness, the mercenary was now considered the first clan on the North continent.

Furthermore, unlike the rest of the clans, the machine has never promoted a single campaign and has not increased the recruitment of educators. It was natural to wonder what kind of clan the mercenary was and how to get in.

When you think about it, Kim Soo-hyun's choice to ban any promotion was ironically excellent for this corner.

After a while.

Buffalo. Buffalo.

Buffalo. Buffalo.

- The Mercenary Clan is entering.

Later, you hear the sound of walking along the heavy footsteps, and at the same time, the amplified voice announces the position of the Mercenary Clan.

Soon, starting with the leading man, a total of eight users begin to walk onto the stage, three men and five women.

Did you just feel something different from the Hangul clans? The trainees staring at the stage were dying without my knowledge. It felt so solemn that the static flowing into the Great Hall was now.

On the contrary, they turn slowly and look at the students. The relaxation is overwhelming. But you don't look arrogant. The red symbol imprinted on the top of the chest suggests that they are members of the Mercenary Clan.

Soon after Kim Soo-hyun stepped forward, Jeongyeon stepped forward and memorized the spell. It was a voice amplification spell.

Kim Soo-hyun of the Mercenary Clan Road. A total of eight clans will be greeting you in this corner and you will now have 12 minutes to answer the questions. So we're going to ask you some questions now.

It was a very simple greeting without a big rhyme. But it was better, because there were so many questions over 12 minutes.

The trainees argued in front of them and raised their hands. Soon after Kim Soo-hyun pointed at one person, the man nominated raised himself to the correct posture.

“Thank you for taking the questions. Jo Dong-hyun became a user today. ”

- Good to see you, user Cho Hyun. What kind of questions?

“Yes, I remember hearing the names of the Mercenary clans and clans several times during my 14-week education. for example," The Shadow Queen. "I think it's a bit of a misleading question, but I'm still curious. Can you tell me who you see onstage? ”

- It's not that hard. Allow questions.

The man said all those words very quickly, and Kim Soo-hyun immediately said yes. Then he pointed to the woman on the far left and calmly opened her mouth.

- First of all, it's the Shadow Queen's high notes, which Dong-hyun the trainee just mentioned.

Yeon Ju waved her hands, smiling softly. And look towards Dong-hyun until you close your eyes. In that way, the hearts of several men, including Dong-hyun Cho, sank, but Kim Soo-hyun said without hesitation.

- Remains after the sword. Maybe you've heard of it a few times.

The rest didn't have much of a reaction. I'm just looking at him with a cold face that he has no interest in.

- Seon Yoo-yun from the palace. It's a flash.

Seon Yoon and Charming bowed their heads politely. However, since they are both indigenous, there is no more reaction.

- And... Hm. You know the other four, so I'll skip that part. That's it, I hope that's enough.

The other four were An-hyun, An-sol, Jeongyeon, and Shin Jae-ryong. It's because I didn't have to tell you as much as I already did at the user academy.

Despite the question, Dong-hyun didn't seem to want to sit down yet. I'm just fixing my eyes at the first high-pitched song I ever introduced with a red face. Finally, when the woman sitting next to me touched her, I was able to quickly sit down.

After that first question. When Soo-hyun Kim looked around again, the trainees automatically raised their hands.

At that moment, one of the passing gazes suddenly stops. Kim Soo-hyun's eyes stare at someone precisely. Soon after Kim Soo-hyun pointed to one side, a thin woman raised her body.

“Thank you for taking the questions. I am Jegal Hassol, who became a user today. ”

- … Yes. Nice to meet you. So what's your question?

“Mmm-hmm. Now, this may be a little offensive, but I'll cut to the chase. What I'm curious about is the number of members of the mercenary clan. ”

- Personnel?

Kim Soo-hyun's eyes went up because of an unexpected question. Jegal Hassol was a quiet horse.

“Yes, people. I think the Machinery is now the best clan on the North continent, and it's been there. But sometimes other Clan instructors say that money is the biggest problem. That's why they say there are clear limits to clans... ”

The moment he said that, the auditorium was greatly disturbed. It's because the speech was in some way like an accusation. However, Jegal's seaweed was not at all dazzling, but rather smiling beautifully and finished the question.

“So what do you think about this? I'd like to hear what Mr. Mercenary Lord has to say. ”

Kim Soo-hyun looked down at Jigsi.

Some of the instructors who have already left the corner are hesitant, whether they have been stabbed. About three or four people looked at Kim Soo-hyun and on the other hand looked up at Jegal's seaweed. Maybe I just want to rip him to shreds.

- Let me ask you a question.

It was then that Kim Soo-hyun who spoke in the cluttered commotion began to move calmly. Jungyeon tried to follow outside the scope of voice amplification magic, but Kim Soo-hyun held up his hands. But he never stops talking.

“The reason our money is now called one of the best clans is not because there are so many users, but because many people think so. ”

Soon, Kim Soo-hyun who walked to the front of the stage said.

“Here, there's a big difference. ”

The commotion sank in an instant.

After looking around for a while, Kim Soo-hyun soon opened her mouth in a quiet voice.

“Sometimes some users say, No matter how many people fly and crawl, there's no trade. But on the contrary, they also say, One well-bred user, not envious of heat users. ”

It was a voice that was infinitely low but full of magic. The students were able to listen to Kim Soo-hyun without exception.

“I'm not talking about secret, rare classes. After all the hard work you've put together for 100 average users, you can wipe them out in one second with five high-quality wizards. That's the reality. That's why it's important to have the level of key users in the clan, the equipment that can support them, and so on. ”

Kim Soo-hyun's voice was full of confidence. It's like telling someone to listen.

It was not just for educators. Users who make headcount starting from the Koran coalition and clans who always insist on increasing headcount.

“That's why the Mercenary Clan wants users who have some potential, some level of potential. Users who do not know when or where they will die, but can live anywhere at any time. To do that, we teaches and supports a clan of core users. ”

Kim Su-hyun said to them all.

“Of course, if there are many clan members, there are definitely advantages. There's no way there's so many people available. ”

“But, like the rest of the large clans, there will never be a plan to expand in size again. because there is a clear purpose to the creation of a machine. ”

“I'm not saying they're wrong. It's just different. I'm talking about the idea, the way the machine works. ”

“Such a clan, with one man capable of carrying ten hundred, and with one man capable of carrying ten times as much efficiency. A minority elite, that's what it means. ”

As Su-hyun's words continued relentlessly, Jegal Haesol opened his mouth with a flash of his hand again. However, before speaking up, Kim Soo-hyun glanced at him.

“Then you'd be curious. Is that even possible? ”

Jegal's seaweed was silent.

“Yes, you can. The way the machines have been walking has proven that. The mercenary has accomplished more than any other clan. A clan that excavated ruins for a few quests, to be honest. Clans that don't miss out on any of the classes, finances, equipment, etc. ”

It wasn't just that.

“And besides that, we have a very powerful tool to grow our students to be core users. This is a unique means to a machine that no clan has. ”

However, the students who were obsessed with Kim Soo-hyun's speech raised their ears together. In fact, the most important interest for educators in choosing a clan is the reputation and support of the clan. And yet, there's something else that perfectly satisfies all of that?

Kim Su-hyun calmly took a breath while receiving the anticipated young gaze from the students. It's been a long time since I've spoken like this, so I'm a little breathless.

After tightening his breath, Kim Soo-hyun confidently opened his mouth.

“At the end of this session, you will receive 4 Stat Points. I think you all know the importance of the point, so I won't explain it.... When I talk to you about it. The Machinery has the means to award 2 additional Stat Points to Trainees - new users only. ”

2 additional points awarded. It wasn't hard to say.

However, the moment it came out, a silent silence settled in the Great Hall.

The static immediately shook from a weak rumble. Just like the night before the storm.

And just before that.

Kim Soo-hyun opened her mouth with a smile.

“That's enough, I hope that's enough. ”

*

The graduation ceremony is over.

After ordering the clans to wait for a while, I can barely get out through the crowded crowds. In fact, I could have come out earlier because I was embarrassed by the trainees as well as the instructors.

Even though I don't understand it. Establishing a mercenary academy comparable to user academy would have been hard for them to believe.

But I also have to be impatient. Cha Hee Young and Jin Soo Hyun are okay. We're all done here. Cha Hee Young has already confirmed that she is next to Ahn Hyun and Jin Soo Hyun can wait.

But Jegal's solution was not yet. Since the couple's offer to recruit Istantelle Low was decided after the graduation ceremony today, the results should be normal by now. Did he say yes or no? No, why can't I see it first?

There are many users, but I don't see any seaweed or Han Soyoung anywhere. I continue to stare at the entrance, sideways. Then I suddenly worried. I'm concerned that he may have used his transportation abilities to get out.

I decided to take a step back, recalling Jegal's seaweed, which I had asked. Waiting at the entrance is most likely, but I felt anxious about something. I thought about it, but I was trying to find it by rotating the Magic Detection.

“Soo-hyun Kim! You were here? ”

A familiar voice calls to me in a moment. Let's look away. It's too urgent. I could see a user running towards me. It was Yeon-Hye-rim, the executioner's daughter.

“Oh, I finally found it! Long time no see!"

“Yeon Hye-rim? Why you. ”

“Oh, it's not something else, it's something that Han Soyoung asked me to tell you. ”

“Istantel Low Road? ”

Yeon-Hye-rim nodded quickly and quickly approached. Then he pushes his face into the vicinity of his neck and whispers in a crooked voice.

“Failed to acquire Jegal's solution. ”

Then I turned around, falling right off. I immediately opened my mouth.

“Failed?”

“Uh, uh. But I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry. Busy. Are you sure about that? ”

“Wait! Where are they now? ”

“I don't know! We just finished talking, so stay here and we'll figure it out!" ”

However, Yeon-hye-rim, who shouted like that, did not even look back, entered the Great Hall.

Failed to acquire Jegal's solution? So you said no?

It was then.

Woof.

Suddenly, I felt a faint stream of magical power jump from the front of my head. I woke up in a flash. You are fortunate. As you chase the point where the magic has moved, you can find a trace of what appears to be a quiet place beyond the crowded entrance.

It's a familiar afterbirth: long flowing raw hair and long stretched legs.

She was my seaweed. No one noticed how natural the transport was.

But I can't keep admiring this. I don't think I'm going to be able to miss this anytime soon.

Suddenly, Jegal seaweed turns around and looks at me as if he knew I was here.

It was the moment when we looked at each other.

- Thank you for answering the question. I heard what you said. Very impressive. I really do.

I stopped reflexively, a moonlight ringing in my head.

I don't see any seaweed anywhere near here. I'm just standing there. In other words, Jegal's seagull delivered a horse to me over a distance of about 80 meters. So only I can hear it.

But I didn't know how.

- Goodbye, then. I had a lot of fun meeting you at night. I hope to see you again next time.

Later, Jegal Haas looked at me and bent his head and knees, like a princess in her old Easter Egg. And they just turn around and walk around like the wind. In the direction of the front door, not in the direction of me. I stared at him dazed.

The area is still full of loud noises. The shape of the seaweed is buried in the crowd and can no longer be seen. I touched my chin quietly.

Then I said goodbye...

Maybe we don't have to go after them.

In fact, it was not that I didn't feel embarrassed. But I can't just sit here like this. As you anticipate these cases, it is important to take precautions in advance. Because he's my seaweed.

I thought about it and walked out of the entrance to a place where there were no users.

As I put my hand into my arms, I caught a candle and a round orb. A crystal sphere for communication. Unlike other crystal spheres, a crystal sphere that emits a dull glow. It was given to me by a high performer this morning.

I pulled them both out at the same time. Place the lotus candle through your fingers and grab the bead into it. In this way, you may think that other users are smoking the first year even if they see it.

Soon after, I lighted up the candle and drew near to my mouth, and I spilled magic into the crystal ball.

Fortunately, the comms were up and running.

(Ah. What else? Mercenary Road. You can't do this. The last one in the Koran Alliance is really the last....)

Soon I heard a grumbling voice, and I quickly whispered.

“There are a lot of people around. Don't bullshit me. ”

One day, my heart was beating. I was trying to calm down, but my voice is very serious even if I listen to it myself.

Whether it felt that way, the grumbling stopped straightaway. If this were the case, they would be terrified of the second family, so they would immediately know what's going on.

I pretended to bite at the beginning of the year to get closer to the crystal sphere. Of course, I didn't forget to keep my hands as tight as possible to prevent the light from leaking out.

“I don't have time to explain. The quest is the same as last time. ”

(Hmm. Right. But wait a minute. Mercenary Road. the window that I was with recently. You really didn't kill him?)

I was silent for a moment. However, I immediately replied as soon as I understood what I was saying.

“Yes, you certainly did. ”

(Yes, so I'd like to go again, but I don't really remember where it was. Do you happen to know what it was called?)

“Ah. This place is just starting, so it's not famous yet. The name of the building was probably seaweed, right? That was a hell of a game to ask. ”

(Khh. Right. In fact, I don't understand it yet, but now that I hear the word, I want to go again.... I think I should do that. Why don't you come with me sometime? When would be a good time?)

“I like it. We can do this right now. No, I hope so. ”

(… Of course.)

The last thing I said was my voice stopped. As a group of chattering users pass by, I heavily suck out the candles and look down.

Suddenly, in the crystal sphere, no more light was coming out.

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

Whoops. The user academy part is finally over. Of course, you can't see it as complete. Haha. The conversation with Jin Soo-hyun will be referred to as a recall at the next meeting, and the treatment of the seagull will be in the next session. But I feel like I'm tying a knot somehow.:)
