I Will Save the World and Retire Chapter 190

Daily life (3)

‘So there should be no restrictions. We should avoid learning at school as something that holds children back.’

‘… oh. ‘When you say that, you really seem like a teacher?’

‘It’s not that other people can’t act as teachers at all?’

‘If you say that, I have nothing to say… . ‘I guess it’s because they don’t all seem to be the same people who taught them.’

Lee Mi-seon shrugged her shoulders. She doesn’t always look like she’s confident and has her hunters at her fingertips.

As far as Kang Tae-woo knew, Woo Hee-jae was from the same research institute as him. He only has the same origin, but his role is different… . Does this mean that Woo Hee-jae is such a great person that a great person like Lee Seung-yeon’s aunt can’t move and listen to nagging?

As Woo Hee-jae was quietly holding his breath, he sighed as if he was frustrated.

‘I wouldn’t have cared so much if the other person were an adult. But I’ve told you this many times.’

Lee Mi-seon secretly avoided Woo Hee-jae’s gaze.

‘If you’re going to take children and create an educational institution, don’t be satisfied with just pretending to play house like you are now.’

‘Keu… . I know what you mean. I didn’t want to create a school without preparation like this, but there were some circumstances.’

‘What’s the matter?’

‘Ask Hunter Hong later. I’m not sure if you’ll tell me, but you said you were a disciple? ‘I’ll tell you.’

Lee Mi-seon turned around.

Kang Tae-woo took a step back, wondering if Lee Mi-sun would see him. The two people’s faces are hidden by the wall. Still, there was no problem hearing the voice.

‘Then I’ll do what I can right away. It would be perfect to send them on a trip to take a break and have them study so they can’t think about anything else. Teacher, let’s see. ‘I wonder if you have the contact information for Seunghyun’s tutor.’

Lee Mi-seon’s muttering was difficult to understand because her voice was so low. However, for some reason, Woo Hee-jae’s next words were heard clearly. I didn’t feel like his voice was particularly loud compared to Lee Mi-seon’s.

He didn’t know if everyone could do such tricks if they became a hunter, or if that was just what he wanted to hear.

‘After all, they are kids. I’m at an age where there are a lot of things I want to do. There’s something you want to do, and if you can do it, that’s best.’

‘Are you having the kids study for that? ‘Maybe it’s something you can do without studying, right?’

‘what… . Studying isn’t required, but if you study well, won’t your list of options expand? There is no law that requires an awakened person to become a hunter. I heard this hunter also graduated from college? The kids might want to go to college.’

‘I was originally planning to join my father’s company.’

‘I originally had a feeling, hmm. Originally, I wanted to learn more.’

Woo Hee-jae cleared his voice.

‘At that age, you don’t even know what you want to do. ‘It’s a bit unscrupulous as an adult to let those kids live just looking at dungeons.’

‘Ah, I knew it! I know! ‘Do you think I have no conscience?!’

‘I’m glad there is. ‘I would be very worried if a member of Korea’s leading conglomerate had no conscience.’

‘… My dad also hated me becoming a hunter.’

Woo Hee-jae’s voice softened a little.

‘It’s dangerous work.’

‘… Is there anything else the kids can do?’

When Mi-seon Lee asked with a quick glance, Hee-jae Woo answered in a voice filled with laughter.

‘well. ‘I’m sure I’m having a hard time just studying right now.’

“Oh, I don’t want to study!!”

… Is this foresight? Kang Tae-woo looked at Lee Seung-yeon. The only way to know that she is related to Lee Mi-seon is through their similar appearance.

“The weather is nice too! “On days like this, we should go out and have fun!”

Well, usually there are not many people who want to study. Outside the window, I could see a clear sky without a single cloud. When I opened the window, a pleasant breeze blew.

As Seungyeon Lee grumbled openly, timid voices of agreement were eventually heard here and there. Still, there were some who did not respond resolutely.

Kang Tae-woo looked at those people closely. Perhaps, as Woo Hee-jae said, he is not putting much emphasis on conquering dungeons. Just like yourself.

Somehow I ended up awakening and ended up here… ah. In this case, what Seungyeon Lee said was not wrong.

‘If you don’t think there will be a next time, you can try something else!’

For the first time in my life, I have a following.

Then this and that… Wouldn’t it be okay to try it? Kang Tae-woo timidly thought that the opportunity he had in his hands might disappear.

There wasn’t anything I wanted to try. Not worrying about the future, but things you want to do right now. Things I wanted to do someday. From simply going to the cinema to watch the latest movie that has just been released, reading a book at a bookstore, watching a sports game… .

Normally, you would need money to have such a new experience, but isn’t there Seungyeon Lee? It is said that an enviable brightness is an advantage that is worthy of envy. Seung-yeon Lee did not weigh this and that like Tae-woo Kang, but instead helped others as much as she wanted. We went to see the sea together,

‘Why are you crying like that? Oh, I don’t know! Hey, you too, follow me!’

‘Now, wait a minute!’

‘I told you to call me brother!!’

It was because of Seungyeon Lee.

Even if it’s not Lee Seung-yeon, there are Woo Hee-jae and Hong Seok-young. To be honest, I was still a little scared of the principal. However, he knows that no matter how much he harbors bad feelings toward the Ark, he is not the type to take out his anger on the victims. On the contrary, I would have done it if I had supported it.

In fact, Woo Hee-jae gave me money once a week, thinking it was pocket money. With an apology for not being able to pay attention to you.

“Hey, Kang Tae-woo. “Aren’t you tired of studying?”

Kang Tae-woo glanced at Lee Seung-yeon, who suddenly spoke to me. Before Kang Tae-woo could answer, Han Eun-young shouted sharply.

“Lee Seungyeon! “Don’t disturb a child who is studying well!”

“Look at least half like him.”

“Ah, why are you only mistreating me!”

“Then don’t do anything that will disgrace you!!”

“No, I was just asking if you weren’t tired of studying, why?!”

Although it was still awkward with everyone except Seungyeon Lee. Still, when I saw him talk like this, it seemed like he was getting used to it, even if it wasn’t enough to be considered friendly.

‘No. 3.’

Compared to those days, I feel much more comfortable here.

No, I feel sorry if I compare that place with this place.

Kang Tae-woo picked up the pencil he had put down without answering Lee Seung-yeon’s words.

What do you want to become?

If someone asked about the future, Kang Tae-woo didn’t have the words to answer it.

But someone… If you ask me if I like being admitted to a pilot high school. If you ask me if I am okay with taking the process to become a hunter.

well. After accidentally overhearing the conversation between Lee Mi-sun and Woo Hee-jae, Kang Tae-woo thought about the answer to that question for several days.

It’s good to be strong. In this tough world, we can’t guarantee that you won’t be unlucky enough to get caught in a dungeon break.

If you know how to use your body, how to catch monsters, and how to conquer dungeons, you won’t have to worry about making a living. Isn’t that the most important thing in modern society anyway? Of course, assuming you don’t die.

So, let’s change the question.

Do I want to become a hunter?

‘… … .’

Taewoo Kang found the answer to that question without difficulty.

I have no intention of becoming a hunter.

Like the hunters who are sometimes interviewed on the news, I have never felt a sense of duty to save people as soon as I became an awakened person.

still. Still, if she were to become a Hunter… . Well, the first thing that comes to mind is my sister’s brightly smiling face. She was about to enter the orphanage when a hand grabbed her.

I don’t want to become a hunter either.

but…

… There is no law that says hunters must catch monsters.

There are many people who go out to catch criminals. It appears on the news once in a while. I heard the researchers talking at the lab, and I think it was Professor Woo, who used to be a janitor.

There is only one thing I want to do that I can picture in detail.

Whether it can be done safely is another question.

What happens after you do it is a different story.

After you finish what you want to do most.

If only we could stay like we are now… .

Taewoo Kang slowly began to solve the problem. Although he was only one year older than them, the noisy atmosphere calmed down little by little as his younger brother started studying.

Crunchy.

The only sound is the sound of a pencil rubbing against paper.

* * *

Kudangtang.

Yoo Hye-eun grabbed her head at the loud sound coming from the hallway. Her muffled laughter spread among the children who were quietly solving problems.

Beep. Beep beep.

I can hear the door code being pressed. Soon the lock opened and a girl with her hair tied up came into her house.

“I’m here!”

“I told you to come in quietly! “What else were you doing in the hallway?”

“uh? “No, I dropped my bag.”

“Why the bag… No, that’s enough. “Go and wash your hands.”

Yoo Hye-eun jumped up with a troubled look on her face and started chasing after her younger brother and nagging him.

“What about school? “Did anything happen?”

“There was none.”

“really?”

“I told you there wasn’t one.”

Yoo Ji-eun shook off her clammy hands and came out to the living room. Yoo Ji-eun shook his head as he picked up the school bag his younger brother had carelessly thrown at the entrance.

“Oh, what! Are you all studying? “It’s so funny.”

“What are you talking about, Yoo Ji-eun? “You have to do it next year too?”

“I’ll think about it next year!”

The gloomy atmosphere changed when a middle school girl arrived. This may be partly due to Yoo Ji-eun’s bright personality.

Yoo Hye-eun, who couldn’t stand nagging her younger sibling, eventually gave up.

“Aren’t school uniforms uncomfortable? Do you want to change your clothes and come? Did you eat lunch? Are not you hungry?”

“It’s okay, it’s okay.”

Actually, it seems like the younger sister was bothered by such attention. Yoo Ji-eun headed to the kitchen, listening to her sister’s words. The refrigerator that Dasun’s hunter came and filled in the morning was full of food.

The four-room, two-bathroom apartment was originally used as a dormitory. There were two apartments that Lee Mi-seon found. This floor was used by boys, and the house two floors above was used by girls. The trip was fun, but Yoo Ji-eun, who thought it was funny to see her older brothers and sisters only studying after returning, ran straight after school and was busy watching.

If I had gone back to school and was training to become a hunter, I would have had a stomach ache, but look at me sitting there unable to move.

Yoo Ji-eun was busy giggling and laughing.

“Then shall we have a snack without Jieun?”

“Oh, me too!”

“You said you’re okay?”

“That and this are different!”

The fact that Yoo Ji-eun came meant that afternoon study was over.

“I’m going to order at a cafe. Tell me what you want to eat!”

Seungyeon Lee shouted while holding her cell phone.

Kang Tae-woo also put down his pencil this time and closed the workbook.

A peaceful afternoon passes by.

In the future, if Kang Tae-woo has another ‘next’.

Back then… … .

well. By then, we will be able to get to know each other more comfortably.

discovery

[teacher. I heard that there are places in the dungeon with a high concentration of magic power. If I use magic in such a place, wouldn’t the power of the magic change regardless of my intention?]

[And I had a question regarding the use of magical power, and after talking with Hye-eun, I realized that there was a difference in the management of magical power. It is obvious that wizards and healers are different, but if you look at the paper, it is also said that the difference between the two is not that big.]

It is an equally sobering message that brings to mind the sender’s sombre face. Looking at the question composed of extremely neat sentences, Kim Chae-min also straightened her posture and tapped the phone screen with a serious face.

Talk. Knock knock knock. After typing and sending a fairly long reply, Kim Chae-min checked another chat window.

[SamsamㅅMatsamsam]

The atmosphere is different from the beginning.

[Why is it that the teacher told me last time that it exists?]

[Resonance in the dungeon? It’s official, right]

[at]

[resonance]

[They say resonance occurs in dungeons]

[That only happens if the properties are right, right? Or does it just work regardless???]

A message full of typos fills the screen.

It was as if I heard the voice of a young wizard who had just become a wizard. When she came face to face with him, he pretended to be calm and calm, imitating Park Seo-hyun, but in Kim Chae-min’s eyes, even that was just cute. Is this why everyone has disciples? No, I don’t think so… .

Kim Chae-min once again responded with sincerity.

For the time being, I heard that I was studying subjects taught in regular high schools that had nothing to do with dungeons, so I was worried about what would happen if I gave up on magic, but it turned out to be unfounded. A wizard does not give up what he gets so easily. Especially if it is Park Seo-hyun, who has been raised as a wizard since childhood.

Kim Chae-min heard about the environment in which she grew up from Hong Seok-young and Park Seo-hyun herself. I don’t know what other people think, but from a magician’s perspective, Park Seo-hyun grew up well for a magician.

Even though he was a great wizard famous for not having blood or tears, I guess his granddaughter was still cute. Perhaps that’s why Park Seo-hyun, who had a cold personality at first, was awkward at first, but quickly got along well with the other students. Hong Seok-young was like that. I’m not sure how much I can believe what he says… .

It’s not that I don’t trust Hong Seok-young, but what happens inside the dungeon and outside the dungeon. Especially when it comes to evaluating adolescent girls, isn’t it difficult to believe the words of a man who is now over half a hundred years old?

Kim Chae-min nodded. Absolutely unbelievable.

Still, looking at Park Seo-hyun now, Hong Seok-young’s judgment may not have been entirely wrong. Even if that wasn’t the case, his sharp personality may have changed as he hung out with kids his age. They are all so good that you wonder where they got these kids from.

‘If you look at it that way, doesn’t Jinwoo look more like a wizard than Seohyun?’

In the end, since wizards are humans, they are greatly influenced by the environment in which they grew up. Choi Jin-woo, who grew up in an ordinary family and only recently awakened… It will continue to be very messy for a wizard. That’s not to say it was bad.

Some wizards may ignore him, but others will like Choi Jin-woo. Kim Chae-min knows. Because he was talking about his own experience.

… Of course, Kim Chae-min was a great wizard, so it would be more accurate to say that no one dared criticize her.

‘If you have any complaints, talk to me!’

I am not so foolish as to be swayed by the words of those who do not have the courage to do so.

‘I need to teach Jin-woo to be firm-minded too… . Seohyun seems to know roughly how the association works.’

Kim Chae-min is not cruel enough to leave an 18-year-old child alone just because they are a teacher and a student. I have no intention of accepting her as her student, but if she is as distant as a school teacher… .

Kim Chae-min was aware that he was a magician with a somewhat unusual personality.

My grandfather and father are wizards. My grandmother and mother were not even wizards, let alone awakened.

Kim Chae-min, who grew up in such a family, is different from a typical wizard and is more… Yes. To put it in simple terms, it was humane. He wasn’t particularly crazy about magic, and he didn’t think that only wizards were the best.

No, of course, right? Wizards aren’t necessarily born to wizard parents!

Of course, since wizards generally marry wizards, Kim Chae-min’s family was constantly talked about in the magical community as a special case.

Sigh… .

Kim Chae-min walked carefully while holding her cell phone. The floor creaked with an ominous sound. After the realm was destroyed, he was now paying the price for sealing it out of anger.

Even though it was bright daylight, it was dark. Dry vines are wrapping around everything, including the windows. Roof, walls, floor, and even the few remaining pieces of furniture. It seems as if they will not allow even a single intruder.

As someone who knew what this house was like originally, I didn’t feel that bad about it.

When the sun was up, the house was always filled with bright sunlight. Flowers and trees were in full bloom all year round, and the fresh smell of grass easily soothed the mind. Kim Chae-min, like all other wizards, cherished his territory. It was a house decorated to his own taste from beginning to end, but how could he not cherish it, regardless of the territory and his life.

If I were sane, I would never have left the space I loved so much like this. But unfortunately, Kim Chae-min at the time was not in a state of mind that could think properly, and as a result, she blocked it out from herself as well. Kim Chae-min cautiously entered his shattered territory as if he were a thief.

Squeak.

Kim Chae-min glared at the floor. Although it was indoors with not a single breeze blowing, a small sprout was sticking out from the gap between the floors and shaking gently. The two fresh green-colored cotyledons continued to twitch as if they were dancing.

“… “Where did you get this magic power?”

Of course, that sprout was Kim Chae-min’s magic.

To be exact, a remnant of magical power. When the realm was damaged, magic power was unleashed without any visible sight, so it is not strange for sprouts like this to sprout.

The strange thing is that it’s still alive.

Since it was a sprout that bloomed with magical energy, it should have withered quickly if there was no periodic supply of magical energy.

Why?

Why is it still alive?

Kim Chae-min slowly looked back on the last time she was in the area. There was nothing great… After catching those who destroyed the territory and hanging them upside down… .

At that time, there was a sound of something breaking. These are probably materials that were brought in for various experiments. Or a flask that may have been used for experiments.

Was there any among them that had magical power that that sprout could suck up?

Chaemin Kim tilted his head to the side.

Probably not.

No, of course there is.

It was no other place, it was a territory.

This is the realm of the Archmage, not anyone else!

Although wizards usually do not say that they feel like they are being watched by the state, Kim Chae-min, whose grandmother and mother have an ordinary law-abiding spirit, faithfully completed the wizard territory report. As soon as he created the territory, he went to the community center and filled out the documents. I respect wizards who don’t do it, but what’s wrong with people who have wizards as neighbors?

‘ah. Normal wizards wouldn’t even think about this.’

Still, if the area that has gone through the reporting process is within the wizard’s private property rather than a public place, it can receive more certain legal protection. Even if private sanctions are imposed on intruders, it can easily be recognized as self-defense, and there are also tax reduction benefits… .

Kim Chae-min designated her entire two-story single-family home as an area. It was easy to get approval because it was not a city center but a sparsely populated rural village with only rice fields nearby. Since there were no other houses within a 1km radius, Kim Chae-min grew plants and experimented with magic with ease.

Anyway, I had cast a lot of magic to block intruders, so it was a bit… Even dangerous materials were used with ease.

“Ahhhh… .”

Chaemin Kim held his head and squatted down.

“I should have checked sooner! How messy is it inside? It would be a mess, right? “Of course it’s going to be a mess!”

He should have listened more carefully when his mother nagged him, saying that he looked just like his father and that she couldn’t help but clean up after herself.

Isn’t this what mom meant?

But the fact that I still got into trouble because I didn’t clean up after myself is still the same, so I guess it’s the same thing in the end.

Squeak. I’m sorry.

The floor made a long sound. To Kim Chae-min’s ears, it sounded like a young animal crying after being hurt.

Kim Chae-min dismantled the remaining sealing magic on the floor and checked the sprouts that were still dancing.

When Kim Chae-min’s fingers touched the bud, bright light rose above the delicate leaves. The leaf veins shone blue.

“Uhm… . “It’s not bad.”

Kim Chae-min tilted her head and injected more magic into the sprout. The sprout imbued with magical power grew in size in an instant.

Kim Chae-min thought it would bloom like the rose she always saw. Because his magic was based on his roses.

“… uh?”

However, the plant that appeared in front of Kim Chae-min was not a rose.

“what. Why not a rose? “Where’s my rose?”

Roses, I’ve always seen them since I was young, so I know what they look like. If it isn’t roses, the ones I often use are vines. Unless that too.

Kim Chae-min narrowed his eyes.

The sprout growing rapidly boasted an appearance that did not resemble anything that Chaemin Kim had expected.

However, if you were to ask if it was an unknown plant that I knew nothing about, it would not be true.

“Why is this here again?”

Kim Chae-min stretched out his hand with a puzzled expression.

The long, reed-like stem was almost at eye level with Kim Chae-min. I put my finger on the thin stem and pulled it, and the end, which was full of small flowers like gypsophila, swayed back and forth. Blue pollen spread like dust, then melted into the air and disappeared.

Kim Chae-min waved the flower once more. The blue flower responded to Kim Chae-min’s magic and began to glow softly like a firefly.

“this… .”

As far as Kim Chae-min knew, this plant and this flower were only found inside the dungeon. Since it is a plant with many uses, it is natural that many people have attempted to grow it outside of dungeons.

But no matter what method was used, the flowers that came out of the dungeon did not last long and dried up and died. Just as monsters outside the dungeon could not survive for more than three months, this was the same.

Three months. As far as Kim Chae-min knows, this was the longest period that this flower lasted outside the dungeon.

“It’s magic power.”

There is no wizard who would not recognize this blue flower.

Kim Chae-min stood caressing the flowers for a long time, unable to hide her embarrassment.

fantasy, modern,
