Episode 6: An Angel in Trial (3)
Heroes are a kind of entertainer.
Of course, there are heroes who are not recognized even in their hometown because they are not famous, and there are also heroes who are so famous that not only Korea but the whole world raves about them.
Among them, Yumari was a particularly famous hero. A half-dragon who belongs to the famous superhuman family of Seocheon Confucianism. And even that beautiful appearance and strength… He couldn’t help but be famous.
Tae survived even though he wore clothes that were merely for practical purposes, and his beauty stood out even without any accessories or makeup. Plus, a small horn on his forehead. It was a sign showing that he was a Yongin.
Yumari was looking at him.
Graduated at the top of the Central Academy of Superhumans. She gained the notoriety of being a dragon lady due to her mixed blood, but she was a hero who was so outstanding that even that notoriety turned into praise. A hero who single-handedly blocked a rainbow-colored crack.
The referee remembered the room from his previous life.
The biggest decoration in the room was a poster with her on it. In a corner of the referee’s bookshelf, there was always a scrapbook containing her articles.
Yes.
The referee in his previous life was that much of a fan of Yumari.
“hello.”
But that Yumari is talking to him now… … .
“My name is Yumari. I’m not arrogant, but I think I’m pretty well known… Have you ever heard of it?”
Yumari was talking to him in a friendly way. Yumari was smiling at herself.
“I’ve heard of it. A young woman from Seocheon Confucianism… “I know you well.”
“then… … .”
She reached out her hand.
But the referee couldn’t hold his hand.
because? Because Yumari in her previous life betrayed humanity. After she sold humanity’s most important fortress, Camp Mariana, to the Demon Lord’s army, she was sent flying to another dimension, transformed into a complete dragon in return.
As she flew with her wings spread like a dragon, she never once looked back at the world she had abandoned.
The referee recalls his miserable past.
I promised myself once again.
‘Such things must be prevented… … .’
Why did Yumari betray humanity? To know that, I had to know about Yumari’s past.
There was an incident where the head of the Seocheon Confucian family kidnapped the dragon Rumari and made her his concubine. And Rumari, the blue dinosaur, gives birth to a cute daughter named Yumari.
A prodigy with both the abilities of Seocheon Confucianism and the abilities of a dragon.
The people of Seocheon Confucianism tried to take advantage of Yumari’s outstanding abilities, but they also feared him and tried to eliminate him. To put it simply, the factions were divided.
And both of those factions… … .
They were the ones who tormented Yumari.
In the end, Chang Gong-ryong was captured and exploited by the Seocheon Confucian family and died, and her half-brothers also attempted to take her life, fearing that her illegitimate child would aim to become the next head of the family.
For her to live.
I had to continue to excel.
Because I didn’t know when I would be purged if I was recognized as unnecessary.
The reason she showed perfect attitude as a hero was simply an act she showed to survive.
And the referee in his previous life was just fooled by that.
The referee lowered his head in bitterness.
No matter how much of a reason there is, the fact that there was betrayal does not disappear. No matter how much she betrayed her humanity to find her own freedom, there are too many of her dead because of it.
“hand… “Aren’t you going to catch me?”
Look. Acting like a nice person and reaching out like that. But the referee was no longer fooled. Now the referee knows it’s all an act.
The referee took a breath and said.
“Yumari. Immediately show your senses as a dragon. “There is a trap targeting you.”
“… what?”
The referee knew about the trap set up here. how? After Yumari from her previous life betrayed humanity and ran away… Because a huge hearing was held.
Various truths were revealed at the hearing. One of them was Seocheon Confucianism’s attack on Yumari… This is because the first one is the work related to the entrance exam.
“under… What is this… … .”
Dragons are very outstanding creatures.
In particular, their horns, which are responsible for their senses, can sense everything from traps beyond walls to atmospheric conditions and human emotions.
Her horns grow little by little.
It is about raising your sense of being a dragon.
I didn’t want my competitors to see that I could enhance my senses as a dragon, so I was hiding it on purpose… … .
While Yumari revealed her senses like this, the referee gathered his thoughts.
‘No matter how betrayed I feel, Yumari is the hero humanity needs. If we can prevent Seocheon Yuga from manipulating Yumari in the future… … .’
Then maybe you won’t betray humanity.
Even more than that… … .
‘Anyway, the Seocheon Confucian family’s machinations will only help Yumari increase her hostility toward humanity and will not kill her. If that’s going to happen, it’s right to stop it and use my angel power.’
The angelic calendar is essential for taking future exams. If she could obtain this precious angel power, she could forget about her past resentment for a while and help her a little.
‘shit… Damn… … .’
Meanwhile, Yumari’s senses became sharper.
He sensed danger facing him everywhere.
Amulets related to dragon slaying… It was a talisman so strong that it could hurt even one’s own body. It is probably a ploy by those who want to purge themselves from within the family.
‘I can feel the energy of dragon killing in some of the doors. Can Seocheon Confucianism also interfere with entrance exams? It was dangerous. ‘Then there is a high possibility that our family’s eyes and ears are hidden in this test.’
And her transcendent sense even read the emotions of the boy next to her.
The boy felt a pang of sadness within him. And he even felt deeply betrayed. I’m seeing this boy for the first time today, but why is he giving me such deep feelings… … ?
And the boy smelled like heaven.

‘Mother’s smell… … .’
Dragons are a clan that makes the sky their friend. It was said that the refreshing and fragrant smell that came from my mother was something that could not be smelled unless you were a race that truly belonged to heaven, like dragons.
“First of all, thank you for telling me about the trap. But you… “Do you hate me?”
“… “I can’t say no.”
“Then why did you help me?”
“I can’t even say that.”
“you… … .”
“Stop, I don’t want to talk more.”
It’s okay because I saved you once.
This was the referee’s idea.
Even if Yumari wasn’t at fault at this point, the referee wasn’t a person with strong enough emotions to question such a thing.
So the referee refused to talk further. And sitting in the corner, the referee decided to think about how to use the angel power he had accumulated earlier.
‘I think I can raise my stats if I accumulate a little more angel power… … .’
The angelic power that was empty after raising the stats last time, was determined to have saved Yumari earlier, and was filled to the point where it was close to the critical point.
‘Still, if you think about using your powers in the future in the test, you need to save some angel power.’
So the referee decided.
‘This angelic power. Let’s save it.’
The referee squats in the corner of the hall like this and thinks about angelic power. Seeing the referee like that, Yumari couldn’t help but think of many things.
‘She really takes after my mother.’
The same goes for Rumari, the spear dinosaur. Because she belonged to heaven, she smelled like heaven and was so beautiful that it was incomparable to ordinary people. No matter how hateful a being he was, he also had a foolish goodness that would save him if his life was in danger. Just like that boy saved me from hating me.
‘Appearance, smell, personality… ‘There is no similarity in all of them.’
And on this floor, that type of character is always taken advantage of and then killed. It was so miserable that it was difficult for those left behind to even think about it.
Yumari had no choice but to bite her lip.
‘… You really take after my mother.’
Because of the rising sadness and longing.
Yumari also couldn’t bring himself to talk to the referee.
The awkwardness remained like this for a day.
Fortunately, this awkwardness did not last more than two days. By the time today is over and tomorrow comes, a trainee from a large guild has arrived for the third time, and a trainee from another family has arrived for the fourth time. Yumari immediately greeted them.
Their guard was immediately relaxed.
It’s as if they have forgotten that they will soon have to compete.
Of course, Yumari turns cold as soon as the conversation ends… … .
They didn’t notice.
‘If there is a team play test, this level of camaraderie will be necessary.’
Looking at the referee sitting sulkingly, Yumari felt a feeling that, as an examinee, she could not put a name to.
‘Even though he hated me, he showed sympathy. That kid could use it. Maybe other people will try to use it too. Other people too… … .’
Just like my mother was used like that… … .
She was worried about the referee now.
The competitor referee.
So I couldn’t show this feeling.
And I muttered excuses to myself.
‘Why are you worried about that child? That kid hates me. ‘He is my enemy.’
Yumari thought as she laughed and accepted another test taker’s joke.
‘Yumari… ‘What on earth do you want to do?’
The tenth person to submit an application was a truly beautiful prisoner with pink hair. She wore a funky outfit, and judging by the shape of her ears and tail, it was clear she was a feline.
Yumari immediately identified her.
‘The next chieftain of the Moon Cat Clan. Hongwol… … !’
Among the Moon Cat clan, famous as the best assassins and thieves, Hongwol was considered a genius. As befits the Moon Cat clan, they are known to be cunning and cruel… … .
Therefore, it is something to be wary of. But of course Yumari hid her feelings and tried to greet her like she did to everyone else. But her Hongwol immediately ignored her and approached a boy sitting in her corner.
“hi.”
The moment it saw the referee, Hongwol’s pink tail stood up and trembled.
Yumari thought.
what? Could it be that Hongwol and the boy knew each other?
Yumari erased her fake smile and watched the scene closely. As Yumari’s smile disappeared, the man who was talking to Yumari earlier was surprised.
“… who are you?”
“Hmm? Ah, this is my first time seeing you like this.”
As expected, the boy seemed to be seeing Hongwol for the first time.
Then why is Hongwol doing that?
no way… … ?
“Boy, my name is Hongwol of the Moon Cat Clan.”
“Ah, Hongwol… … ?”
“Have you ever heard of it?”
Yumari bit her lip.
As explained earlier, Hongwol was famous for its cruelty. Moreover, since they are a member of the Moon Cat clan, which is famous for being thieves, they will not blink an eye when they use others like themselves and then throw them away.
My mother died while being taken advantage of by people like that. Because of cruel beings like Hongwol… … !
‘Hongwol. What on earth are you trying to do? no way… Are you trying to take advantage of that boy?’
Yumari had taken a step forward without realizing it.
“I’m making a very rude suggestion. Boy, let’s form a group with me.”
However, Hongwol was much closer to the boy.
