Chapter 43-1: - Gourmet Club (3)
Baek Yu-Seol tried to remain as composed as possible when he asked him the question.
"... Are you saying that you can create a special outing club?"
"Yes, I am. I can make it happen," Mayuseong replied with an air of confidence.
Baek Yu-Seol looked at him and shook his head.
Mayuseong had a vast network of connections, and he was affiliated with powerful factions within Stella.
<em class="chakra-text css-0">Well, with his connections, it should work out just fine.
Although the idea of connections was somewhat daunting, Baek Yu-Seol realized that they would be useful in situations like that.
He slowly thought about the advantages that would come his way when Mayuseong would start the club.
The club would allow free external activities, provide health insurance, and offer the opportunity to enjoy cheese fried pork cutlets.
He wouldn't have to worry about any unnecessary restrictions either. Plus, having someone like Mayuseong nearby would be beneficial.
However, there were also some concerns that crossed his mind.
Mayuseong and he had little interaction up to this point.
Despite his ability to showcase his gaming knowledge and portray himself as a genius, Baek Yu-Seol found it suspicious that he would offer to create a club for him so readily.
"What's the catch?" he asked. "What benefit do you get from starting a club for me?"
He knew that Mayuseong was the closest to the darkness, so he had to be careful.
"There is. You're special, you know."
"... What the hell are you talking about?"
Then, suddenly, their eyes met. Within his already dark eyes, something like a thick black mist seemed to be wriggling.
"You No."
Baek Yu-Seol was about to ask what he meant when he suddenly shut his mouth.
One of Mayuseongs fundamental problems was that he suffered from extreme loneliness.
As he thought about that, he couldn't help but nod his head.
Thunk!
Eisel slammed her desk.
"... Is this what you call a club application?"
"Why are you getting angry?"
"Who writes 'Social Gathering' as a clubs purpose? And you didn't put any effort into the club name either. This won't get approved at all, and even if it does, we won't be able to go out."
She rubbed out the application form with an eraser.
"Your purpose in creating a club is for external activities, right? But as a rule, it is not possible for students to establish clubs with a purpose of 'external special activities' such as hunting. You must join a club assigned by the academy."
"Oh, I didn't know that," he replied.
"However, there is a loophole here. It is not a problem to engage in 'external special activities' other than hunting with the permission of the supervising professor."
"I see," he said, realizing that he knew very little about club regulations.
In the past, when he played games, he could come up with just any name for a club without much thought.
The name of his previous club was "Kickass Yu-Seol." However, in reality, there were many things to consider, making his head spin.
"That's why most private clubs have different real purposes. Activities such as external volunteer work and medical support can be supported with activity expenses and receive official recognition, enabling external special activities as well.
But then again, during hunting, they had to sneak in those activities from time to time.
Volunteering? He'd rather not.
"So, think of a purpose for going out that is acceptable to the professor and won't be too much trouble for you. Moreover, it should also provide some reasonable activity funds."
Actually, there was one thing hed been wanting to do ever since he set foot in Aether World for the first time.
What about a 'gourmet' club?"
That was right. A gourmet club that explored restaurants.
"Excuse me?"
"Literally a club that revolved around restaurants."
She was about to say it was absurd, but paused for a moment.
