I Will Save the World and Retire Chapter 63

(Ad)Please help (3)

“fist.”

Student No. 3’s admission was decided without my intention or consent of the parties involved.

I don’t think number 3 will reject my offer. If No. 3 attends the demonstration high school, wouldn’t he at least be able to immediately determine Hong Seok-young’s location? Was she at school, went into a dungeon, or disappeared without revealing her whereabouts?

It is said that Hong Seok-young attacked the Ark several times, so it is obvious that even that level of information cannot be missed by the Ark.

… But I still don’t feel like it.

At every word I say, everyone stops what they are doing and looks up at me.

There are several desks next to each other, and children are gathered around them. The dungeon information I gave you this morning is scattered across the desk.

At the center is Han Eun-young.

The notebook open in front of Han Eun-young is filled with lines that look like scribbles. The dungeon entry route was calculated.

After graduating from the Pixie Dungeon for the first time, I was assigned a dungeon with different monsters appearing. I gave them the dungeon exploration report I had prepared over the past few days, and told them to discuss it together and create a dungeon strategy guide.

In the dungeon strategy class, Han Eun-young surprisingly stands out. So it was not strange that Han Eun-young took the lead. Until today, Han Eun-young has collected as many as three praise stickers. Oh Hyun-wook barely received one, and other than that, it was a total loss.

No matter how good Han Eun-young’s fighting skills are… Although he gives the impression that he is a model student who does as he is told. Rather than allowing him to continue doing something that doesn’t suit his personality, he should push what he’s good at.

Of course, there are talented people who are good at fighting and strategy.

There, little Yoo Ji-eun, clinging to her older sister.

Since Yoo Ji-eun was at school, she also participated in the class. She said Yoo Ji-eun had nothing to do anyway, and she wanted to give Yoo Hye-eun something to do as well. She is learning how to conquer dungeons, even though Yoo Hye-eun will rarely have to go in the future. If she teaches her younger sister how to do it, she won’t be bored at least.

Luckily, Yoo Ji-eun’s talent blossomed early. Anyway, I will be entering a pilot high school next year… .

“teacher?”

It is a bad habit to think too much in front of people.

I cleared my throat briefly and cleared my throat.

“I will finish the strategy guide I am writing now by this week.”

I wonder if the work with No. 3 is taking up a lot of time.

You have to have tried it before to even guess. I have no inspiration.

“Today, Teacher Kim and I go in first. When it is time to leave school, Daseon Hunters will help you.”

“… … .”

“I don’t know if I’ll be able to come out tomorrow… Anyway, please do what you asked me to do.”

“… … .”

The children stopped acting as soon as I spoke.

“… … ? why?”

Tuk. Degurrr… .

The pencil that Seohyun Park dropped rolled across the classroom floor and landed at my feet.

“Ho, maybe… .”

Park Seo-hyun’s shoulders are shaking. As a result, his hair, which had been brushed behind him, fell forward and covered his eyes.

Oh, please.

No matter how sensitive it is, there are degrees.

At least the back and forth is correct and I can understand it.

“Gyo, Gyo, Gyo, Gyo…” .”

“school? principal?”

“S-situation… .”

Do you think something happened to Hong Seok-young because I went first?

Well, on the day the news broke that Hong Seok-young was hospitalized, Kim Chae-min and I went in first.

But back then, Kim Chae-min seemed serious. It feels unfair somehow.

“The principal is okay. “I’m going there for personal reasons, so there’s nothing to worry about.”

“Personal matter? “Is this your personal matter?”

Oh Hyun-wook asked, his face scrunched up.

“however? Any complaints?”

“It’s your personal business, why is Teacher Kim Chae-min coming with you?”

“… … .”

Oh Hyun-wook asked a quite sharp question.

I don’t answer questions that are unfavorable to me. I ignored it.

“That’s it.”

I didn’t give the kids time to ask any more questions.

The more you answer, the more trapped you become and the more you cannot escape. During the hearing, I saw many poor souls caught in this trap.

So I finished it quickly.

“I will first check the strategy guide I wrote as soon as I arrive. “Don’t do it in vain.”

“You said I should do it by this week?”

“When conquering a dungeon, something unexpected always happens.”

“You always make that excuse!”

While Han Eun-young resisted with a tearful face.

Yoo Ji-eun, who made eye contact with me, smiled and asked.

“Teacher, then can I come out all week too?”

“… … .”

I sighed.

I thought that if I continued like this, I would soon have gray hairs on my head.

“do it yourself.”

Yoo Ji-eun jumped up after hearing me half-give permission.

How did my life end up like this?

This is it…

this… …

There are too many people to shift responsibility to.

I can’t help it.

This is all because of you.

For the strongest hunter, such resentment would not be heavy.

The orphanage where No. 3 was located was quite large. The cute picture on the wall boasted vivid colors, as if it had been repainted not long ago.

The playground was well decorated with colorful slides, and several children were playing on the playground. The building itself was also neat.

I sent Lee Mi-seon this address and gave her a brief explanation, so she will be able to investigate right away.

Now I understand why the man kept Lee Mi-seon close to him. If you ask her to do something, she does it all on her own, and she can’t say she can’t do anything, so she couldn’t be more convenient.

I can’t believe I know this now. I should have known this a long time ago.

“Student Taewu?”

I saw a kid loitering near the front door, so I rolled down the window and called his name. As soon as No. 3 saw me, her face lit up.

“teacher!”

I thought about it, and number 3 should have been an actor.

If I had acted, I would have become a genius actor known not only in Korea but all over the world.

Didn’t anyone at the lab notice No. 3’s talent? They are truly useless.

Number 3 ran quickly. She was seen looking at the driver’s seat as she approached. Since he knew No. 3’s identity from the beginning, he could see something suspicious, and if he didn’t know, his behavior was so natural that he could easily have been fooled. I feel that way too, so I’m sure other people feel the same way.

Did you recognize Kim Chae-min? You must have recognized it.

Kim Chae-min is a famous person. Even if you didn’t know him, he is a face that has been on the news for a week. Number 3’s eyes narrowed slightly, then returned to normal.

I got out of the car slowly. I deliberately told Kim Chae-min not to interfere. It’s strange to be so proactive… .

How do I get the word out?

It’s difficult to approach them because they have other intentions. Hong Seok-young smiled carefree, saying that she would be fine as long as she followed her heart, but how easy was that for her?

First, let’s see how issue 3 turns out.

“I, uh, I’m sorry… .”

After all, I had to act.

“I said it’s okay. You must have been very surprised… Are you still having a hard time controlling it?”

“It’s better than the first time… .”

Number 3 hesitated.

“Usually your body will get used to it after a day or so.”

“Yeah, really?”

“of course… This is when most accidents occur. There is no harm in being careful. “I heard you have younger siblings?”

“yes… . “There are a lot of young children in the orphanage.”

I looked towards the nursery. If an unfamiliar adult talks to you, someone might come out.

“You play well with your younger siblings? “That’s nice.”

My personal feelings aside, as the oldest member of the lab’s test subjects, No. 3 took good care of the kids. Because I’ve been at the lab for a long time.

It’s only comfortable for adults if a child like this is in an orphanage.

“Aren’t there any other teachers?”

“Oh, he’s inside.”

“okay? “Is the director there?”

“uh… why?”

“I need to register as an awakened person. “You can go with another teacher, but it’s more convenient to have an active hunter.”

Hunter licenses are obtained from each city and provincial office. Registration of awakened persons is possible at the district office.

Hunter licenses have standards set by international law, so there is nothing I can do, but if awakened registration is guaranteed, the cumbersome authentication process can be simplified.

After the brief explanation, No. 3 nodded with an expression that made him understand for the first time.

“Wait! Then I’ll call the teacher!”

Number 3 hesitated and ran inside the orphanage.

As I saw him staggering and running, I suddenly wondered if he had really awakened now. This is because they were just like people who had just awakened, unable to control their own speed and walking or running in a hesitant pose. Are you even imitating something like that?

Hmm.

“Is he Tae-woo’s student? “You look nice.”

“Don’t be fooled.”

“Wow, why are you doing this to me? “Did something bad happen to him?”

… If I were to be honest, I kind of scratched the inside out of him.

“It’s similar.”

“Hmm.”

Chaemin Kim snorted lightly and bobbed his head from side to side.

“But anyway, wouldn’t it be a good idea to check?”

“Confirm?”

“Is it true that student Taewoo awakened?”

“I know it when I see it.”

“You know when you see it? how?”

“Yeah… .”

Without thinking, I answered Kim Chae-min’s words and then closed my mouth.

Come to think of it, it’s like that.

When I saw him at a meeting of the National New Mind Association, he was clearly not awakened. If it’s awakened, there’s no way I’ll miss it. If you miss something that is clearly visible with both eyes, you should pluck out those eyes.

But just now… I was in a state of awakening.

what. Did you really wake up by luck at this timing? It’s such ridiculous timing. Of course, everything in life is like that, but there are degrees.

“Mr. Wu? Really, don’t think about it in front of people!”

Or, did you succeed in research on the Ark?

Are you saying that the artificial awakening method was successful?

so… Dissolving the River of Promise?

No, a lot of things have changed while I was saving my children in Myeongdong, but not to that extent.

I would like to think not.

“Anyway, I know it when I see it. “If you don’t believe me, I’ll check later.”

“It’s not that I don’t trust Teacher Woo… .”

“no. “We definitely need to check this.”

I twisted my lips as I watched number 3 walking with an older female teacher.

Same time.

Somewhere in Korea.

River Nursery.

There is a boy squatting in the shade of a tree to avoid the early summer sunlight.

A boy wearing shorts picked up a tree branch that had fallen on the ground and scribbled on the floor. I drew meaningless lines and erased them with my foot a few times.

The child wrote something on the floor with a serious face.

“… ! … Hey!”

At that time, I heard a voice calling for a child from afar.

I couldn’t hear what was being said properly. The boy raised his head and checked the large clock at the entrance to the orphanage. It was obvious why he was calling him.

The boy got up from his knees. He turned around and was about to head towards the building, but he stopped and looked at the floor as if something occurred to him.

A little while ago, I saw letters written with tree branches.

For a child, the handwriting is neat and well written.

Three names whose names belong to three characters.

Heejae Woo.

And underneath that… .

Okay. Sigh.

The child crushed the writing with his foot. Her sand-covered scribbles were quickly erased.

Then the boy ran without looking back.
