I Became the Leader of Academy City

55 – Discipline 22. The Leader Does Not Get Distracted (3)

Do you sleep hugging your Geumyang every day?

Of course I said no.

For a moment, her mind became dizzy and she felt dizzy, but she managed to come to her senses and actually tried to straighten out her relationship.

Because I had to figure out what was being discussed first.

And.

“My name is Geumyang. My occupation is God. My hobbies are reading, watching anime, and movies.”

“That’s how you introduced it?”

“Yes.”

I see.

After calming down the situation and hearing from Oh Baek-seo and Geumyang.

I realized why Baek Seo was able to quickly understand and pass on Geumyang’s words.

‘Did you think it was just a false statement? .’

Who could really believe that he is a god-like being derived from the Golden Sheep?

No matter what evidence he showed, he would be seen as a liar.

“Again, you look human, right?”

“Not human.”

Geumyang solemnly and firmly corrected Baek Seo’s words.

“It’s God!”

The powerful Geumyang.

‘If you say so…’

Geumyang has a very cute appearance.

The sight of her sitting on the sofa wearing my shirt, her arms crossed and her attitude so triumphant… It was difficult to even see the majesty of God.

From the beginning, Geumyang itself was far from the expression ‘majesty’.

“It’s better to call yourself unemployed.”

“I’ll say it again, don’t throw such ugly expressions in front of me.”

If you have too much pride.

“So. Huh…”

Why aren’t you looking at Geumyang with pity, White Paper?

“To summarize, the manager was ‘taking care’ of this child?”

“You were taking care of me? The kid is me? Huh, indeed! “That’s nonsense!”

Geumyang even snorted and got angry.

“Sorry, let me correct you. “This kid has a mysterious ability that can erase the cost of the manager’s unique ability, and the manager has been ‘taking care’ of this child, right?”

She said, “‘I was taking care of’ was not missing at all… ?”

Was the white paper misunderstood?

“Look again, next door. This is my power, control of space!”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“Ugh, why don’t you believe it… ?”

Geumyang attempted to create a crack as a means of proving herself.

The white paper seemed to think that even that was one of the magic formulas for a special ability that was created by erasing my penalty.

‘This is absurd.’

It was almost like I couldn’t help but laugh.

“Manager, is that why you were late in introducing this kid?”

It’s amazing…

“… “It’s a white paper.”

“Yes.”

“Let’s talk about that later.”

White Paper, who had a kind expression, revealed doubt in his eyes.

…

Even though it was summer, the night breeze was still cool.

I roughly finished my conversation with Geumyang. Baekseo treated her Geumyang comfortably, and Geumyang said that her excitement had waned and she quickly returned to her labyrinth.

‘It ended without any problems.’

It was fortunate that no major problems rose.

Baek Seo and I stopped at a cafe, took out a drink each, and sat on a bench under a streetlight.

A light conversation would be okay.

“Manager, is this a date?”

“… !”

An attack out of nowhere.

My head shook at the white paper’s playful question.

‘It always excites people…’

It’s even more like that after the incident that happened last time, when Baek Seo fell into the shower.

I didn’t hate it, but it was still difficult.

“I just came out to talk. Don’t say anything like that here…”

“Hehe, it’s a joke.”

Usually, when a white paper suddenly throws a joke like this, it is to brighten the mood.

I understood and moved on.

“Anyway, it was a misunderstanding earlier.”

Go straight to the point.

“What?”

“I’m not taking care of Geumyang. “I am getting help.”

If there was a misunderstanding, I wanted to correct it.

Anyway, I will be staying with Baek Seo from now on.

I didn’t want to neglect this strange misunderstanding for no reason.

“… Huh?”

For some reason, White Paper’s smile disappeared.

“It may be difficult to understand, but everything Geumyang said is true… “What’s wrong?”

White Paper’s expression gradually hardened.

What’s the reason?

I couldn’t help but pay attention.

“Manager.”

The white paper had an uncharacteristically serious expression.

“Huh?”

“So, are you really in a master/slave relationship with her?”

“?”

Crazy.

What does this mean?

“That… , I heard it was a master-servant relationship. Geumyang is the master, and you are like a servant or a dog…”

“… ?”

“Was that really true?”

‘It’s going to turn.’

Geumyang!

Afterwards, it took dozens of minutes to explain to the white paper.

Fortunately, it didn’t take as long as expected. This was because the white paper did not bother to ask about questionable parts and simply listened.

Before I knew it, there was about a third of the lime mojito left in my hand.

“What… , Anyway, that’s the story. It may be difficult to accept everything right away, but just know that this is not a relationship that can be misunderstood.”

After the explanation, I looked back at the white paper.

“Yes, I understand what you’re talking about.”

The white paper turned his body toward me, hugging his knees and staring at me.

He was in a comfortable position with his shoulder resting against the backrest, and his shoes were off.

“Thank you for understanding.”

White Paper shook his head.

“No. “I’m still dazed.”

“Is it really hard to believe… ?” .”

“To be honest… I think it will take some time to accept it.”

It was a calmer reaction than expected.

I didn’t expect a passionate response in the first place.

It is a world filled with mysterious powers such as The Hole, demonic beasts, and magical power.

It wouldn’t have been difficult to accept an unknown being like a golden sheep.

However.

“I need to find out more.”

Those words were meaningful.

It’s not an easy story to believe, so it’s sure to raise a lot of questions and doubts.

It seemed like he only reacted that way because he thought of me.

By the way.

“… But why are you smiling?”

“Apart from the story, it’s funny how desperately you try to explain.”

White Paper tilted his head to the side and responded with a friendly smile. It was an honest smile, far from the usual pretentious smile.

“So you didn’t want to be misunderstood by me?”

For some reason, he looked relieved.

“Isn’t it obvious? He’s my closest friend. “I don’t want to hide anything.”

A precious close friend and someone I want to be with in the future.

I planned to share everything except my game knowledge and the contents of the Zikbakguri folder with White Paper.

“You say happy things.”

White Paper lowered his eyes, closed his lips and remained silent for a moment. What is he thinking?

Soon, the white paper looked into my eyes again to see what kind of decision had been made.

“Manager.”

“Yes.”

“Actually, there’s something I haven’t told you yet.”

“What is it?”

“I’ll tell you someday. When I’m ready too.”

“…”

‘I didn’t know you would say that.’

I thought as I finished drinking the remaining lime mojito.

‘It must be about that engraving.’

What comes to mind is the magical imprint on White Paper’s shoulder.

The most elite unit carrying out black ops.

Dragon soldier, symbol of Spartoi.

It is a magical imprint that occurs naturally through a contract, and the imprint remains intact even after you quit Spartoy.

However, if you express your intention to remove the imprint as a Spartoy, it will naturally disappear.

Looking at the imprint still remaining on the white paper’s shoulder.

The white paper must have thought that the imprint had value.

‘You probably think I don’t know what that means.’

Therefore, the white paper has a hidden past from me and has a purpose.

So, the secret that White Paper said he would tell later is definitely ‘the past as a Spartoy.’

“… Speak comfortably. Because I’m fine.”

“Huh… Thank you.”

I’ll have to wait for the white paper to talk comfortably.

Somehow an uncomfortable feeling began to flow, so I got up from my seat.

“Let’s go back. It’s getting colder.”

“I know. “It still doesn’t seem like summer.”

After a quick chat, I walked home.

“But manager.”

“Yes.”

“If you sleep with a girl named Geumyang today… ?”

“No, I said I’m not sleeping…”

…

“Hey, kid.”

Dawn.

I was studying at my desk.

Geumyang, who was lying in bed reading a comic book, spoke to me. After sending White Paper away, he returned from the labyrinth.

“I can’t talk any more today. It’s a test.”

“I think I should tell you why I avoided the kid next door. What if you’re not interested? “Not?”

Bye.

I turned my chair and looked at Geumyang.

You should listen to this.

“As expected, the bite comes right away. I like it because it’s easy.”

“Say it. “What was the reason?”

The reason it took so long to introduce Geumyang was because Geumyang wasn’t happy with Baekseo from the beginning.

As time passed, I realized that it was not simply because I was shy.

Geumyang put a bookmark on the comic book, closed it, and looked up at the ceiling.

“Oh Baek-seo, that kid… It smells so much like human blood. “She must have had a lot of blood on her hands.”

Geumyang’s mysterious golden eyes glanced in my direction.

“… Aren’t you surprised? Wouldn’t it be a reversal of the feeling that a youth comedy suddenly drifted into a suspense drama?”

“It’s amazing that your nose is so good.”

If it were Spartoy, it would have ‘cleaned up’ a lot of vicious criminals.

It was easy to predict that there was a lot of blood on both hands.

It wasn’t a problem that could be taken lightly, but at least it wasn’t something that could be shocking because it was unexpected.

“What a boring guy. Well, it doesn’t matter… Wow.”

Geumyang raised her upper body and looked at me with her serious eyes.

“That kid will break if he’s not careful.”

“What?”

That sudden remark was enough to startle me.

Geumyang extended her right finger upward and placed her left palm on it.

“It’s like a cheesecake that sits precariously on top of chopsticks. Right now, I’m just holding on to thanks to your support. If something happens to you, it’s clear that he won’t mind doing something rough. “She’s that driven, that kid.”

“Why do you think that?”

“There’s something I see in guys who seem like they’re going to break down. “What is the use of explaining metaphysical things?”

“…”

He is an inexplicable being who has discovered Baek Seo’s bloody past of her. I didn’t really feel like there was any incongruity.

Suddenly, I remembered the white paper I saw in the game.

He pretended to be caring and kind on the outside, but on the inside, he seemed like a dark and dark person. He also showed a firm and cruel side.

Of course, being different on the outside and the inside is a basic skill possessed by most modern people. However, the white paper was particularly pretentious, and its insides seemed as black as the abyss.

The memories of that time and the words Geumyang said overlapped in my mind.

If it weren’t for me.

So, if there was no one to support you.

Does this mean that the white paper was damaged?

“I don’t know why, but he’s a sad kid.”

Geumyang lightly turned her shoulders and spoke calmly as if she was talking about an acquaintance.

“Anyway, for that reason, he wasn’t a guy I really wanted to see. Because it’s obvious that I’m very obsessed with you.”

As the original white paper came to mind, my thoughts deepened for a moment.

“… “Did I say something unnecessary?”

Geumyang turning her eyes towards me.

“… Ah.”

Because he was late, he belatedly shook his head.

“No… , It served as a reference. Thank you for letting me know.”

“I’m glad. “I’ll pay you in cheesecake.”

So, was it really necessary to compare the white paper to a cheesecake?

“I’ll bring it for dinner, so eat it.”

“Wow.”

Geumyang lies down on the bed again and reads a comic book.

I decided to keep the information she gave me in mind.

Because I felt like I had to remember.

And about 30 minutes later.

“Haaam…”

Geumyang yawned long.

“Kid, I need to sleep…”

“Aren’t you going home today?”

“I like sleeping in this bed these days… I’ll save you a seat… Good night…”

Geumyang naturally herself with the blanket and fell asleep, leaving me alone.

“…”

Silence has come.

While studying again, Geumyang kicked and pushed the blanket away, so I lifted it up and covered it properly.

As she looked at her golden sheep, who was sleeping soundly, the story she had said filled her mind again.

This year or next year.

For some reason, Oh Baek-seo goes missing.

The information collected so far and what Geumyang said may be related to the disappearance of the white paper.

I was confident that some kind of trend, which I could not know from the point of view of the game protagonist Lee Tae-seong, would soon take place around me.

I had to prepare for that time.

My eyes sank.

The memory of Dalbi leaving my side came to mind.

I didn’t want to repeat that again.

“…”

I will protect the white paper at all costs.

Anything that got in the way would be destroyed.
