Chapter 15

Episode 15

.

When Shin Yuseong came out of the cave, the warm sunlight of the afternoon shone brightly on the golem’s core. At the same time, the golem’s mana buried in Shin Yuseong was scattered in the cool wind.

A quiet forest unfolds before your eyes.

A loud siren broke the silence and resonated throughout Jewel Island.

Wheein!

The siren that caught the attention soon changed to the voice of a female teacher and started guiding the students.

[The 1st Gem Battle on Jewel Island is over. All freshmen who participated in the test, please gather in front of the cruise.]

Let’s try to move to the cruise according to Shin Yoo-seong’s guidance. Lin Shao, who came out of the cave later, gently placed a hand on Shin Yoo-seong’s shoulder and spoke to him in a friendly way.

“Yoosung! Have you ever been injured? If you get hurt, I, Lin Xiao, will gladly give my back!”

Lin Shao was at a loss to Shin Yuseong with an apologetic face, perhaps because of the mistake of not notifying him of the cave in advance.

“it’s okay. There are no injuries.”

“ha ha ha! is that right? As expected, the King’s disciple... No! After all, Yoosung should be you!”

As evidence of that, Lin Xiao laughed heartily but was breaking out in a cold sweat. If Yoosung Shin had been hurt by the golem, it would have been a natural reaction since the instructor position was dangerous.

With that, Lin Xiao let out a sigh of relief. Shin Yuseong calmly responded to Lin Xiao’s actions.

“Instructor. You look impatient. You are breathing very fast.”

“huh? me? No, just in case you, my disciple, get hurt... Stop worrying hahaha!”

“Thank you for your concern. It wasn’t that strong of an opponent.”

Shin Yoo-seong smiled meaninglessly and passed himself by. For some reason, Lin Xiao couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable.

Jewel Island. front of the cruise.

The lower class students all gathered on the beach to announce the results of the Jewel Island exam. The beautiful blue sea at a glance and the cool breeze reminded me of a resort area, but the students clearly showed nervous expressions.

“This is a very unusual result.”

Sweep.

Let’s say the female professor who teaches dungeon studies raises her glasses. With a nervous face, Sumire held onto Shin Yoosung’s school uniform and muttered.

“...It’s okay this time. I also received Shin Yoo-seong’s hair... and his skull was very strong. Although hehe... I lost the skull...”

It seemed that Sumire was unknowingly holding on to Shin Yoosung’s clothes. As if there was even an earthquake, Sumire’s hands trembled. A button fell off Shin Yoo-seong’s shirt.

Knock.

‘...I’ll tear all my clothes like this.’

In the end, Yooseong Shin said as he removed Sumire’s hand from her school uniform.

“It’s okay, because you did your best.”

“Really? But...”

Just as Sumire was about to bring up another negative story, the ranks of the students were displayed on a huge monitor standing on the pier.

[1st place – Shin Yooseong (Class F)]

[2nd place – Sumire (Class F)]

[3rd place -...]

Shin Yooseong, who took first place, counted the points and already knew the result to some extent. However, Sumire was actually counting from the bottom of the ranking.

120th. 68th. 13th. No matter how high you rank, you can’t see your name. Sumire let out a strange exclamation.

“iced coffee? ah!”

Sumire’s wandering gaze eventually reached the second place, the top of the monitor. Unexpected shocking results.

“...iced coffee? Aha!?”

Sumire was so happy that she grabbed Shin Yoo-seong’s hand tightly without even realizing it and jumped in place.

“Am I number 9?”

Even in the last test alone, Park Soo-hyun’s score was 7th, corresponding to the number 7. But now, he is in ninth place, a long way behind the seventh number. Park Soo-hyun looked at the bulletin board with a puzzled face.

‘Who the hell is...’

[1st place Adela (class S)]

[2nd place Kim Eun-ah (class A)]

Adela and Kim Eun-ah, who were originally strong, were still holding first and second place, perhaps because of their previous grades. But the problem lies below.

[3rd place Shin Yuseong (Class F)]

[...]

[6th place Sumire (Class F)]

Shin Yooseong and Sumire, who were only in Class F, became number 7.

“No, how could it be class F!”

Even the name written in 3rd place was somehow familiar to Park Soo-hyun.

‘...Shin Yuseong?’

Park Soo-hyun had forgotten the existence of Shin Yoo-seong, a class F member, after the exam. I just thought to lightly relax and come when the date for Dalian comes.

‘By the way, Class F is number seven?’

Even the 3rd place, which is a lot higher than the 9th place himself. Suddenly, Kim Eun-ah’s voice played in Park Soo-hyun’s ears.

[okay? I think you might lose?]

Kim Eun-ah’s words were not lies or provocations. If it was Shin Yoo-seong’s true skill that took the number 7, he had to think about the possibility of losing in Dalian.

‘Damn it.... If I had to lose to an F-class trait...’

There was nothing more terrible than that for Park Soo-hyun, who thought of her own prestige as the best. While Park Soo-hyun, who had a headache, was biting her lip, Lee Si-woo’s nasty voice came from the side.

“and! really! Seven number! That’s number 3! But Park Soo-hyun is at most 9th, so why did he bet on you?”

Although Lee Si-woo’s ranking was so low that Park Soo-hyun’s ranking was incomparable. He was blaming Park Soo-hyun by mentioning Shin Yoo-seong.

‘No, that baby ....’

After all, Park Soo -hyun approached Shin Yu -sung and Lee Si -woo and opened her mouth.

“Looks like you found me. What did you just say?”

Seeing Park Soo-hyun’s angry face, Lee Si-woo ran away in a sweat.

“sorry!”

Park Soo-hyun glared at Lee Si-woo, who was running away, for a long time. Soon, he turned his gaze and looked up and down Shin Yoosung.

Then, looking at the button on Shin Yoo-seong’s shirt that had been ripped off because of Sumire, he raised his glasses and clicked his tongue.

“This guy who is a disciple of Kwon King looks very bad.”

Shin Yoo-seong respected his teacher, Kwon Wang Yu Won-hak, more than anyone else. However, Shin Yoo-seong’s expression hardened at Park Soo-hyun, who mentioned the teacher’s name in a useless place.

However, Park Soo-hyun, who was angry, did not stop provoking.

“Furthermore, the subject of class F and number seven. her! Is that also the breath of the king?”

“You’d better watch your mouth.”

Let the cold voice of Shin Yoo-seong resound. Park Soo-hyun felt a chill run down his back bone without even realizing it.

‘What kind of atmosphere is this guy...’

Park Soo-hyun, who was pressed by Shin Yoo-seong’s momentum, took a step back without realizing it. Shin Yoo-seong looked down at Park Soo-hyun with a cold gaze.

Let the fight between the two spread out of control. Kim Eun-ah, who happened to be passing by, intervened between the two.

“Hey, do you need to stare at me in the hallway like that? I heard that sparring will happen at the same time~ Shouldn’t we make a decision there?”

Kim Eun-ah, who smiled, stopped the two of them with a smirk. Park Soo-hyun had no choice but to avoid the seat.

“okay. Don’t expect sparring.”

Shin Yoo-seong did not answer Park Soo-hyun’s words. The reason why I accepted the Dalian in the first place was the experience of fighting against the SP and the upper classes. It didn’t matter to Shin Yoosung anymore.
