29. Purification (5)
While there was an uproar at school.
Choi Myung-hoon was informed of the situation in the hospital room.
“… … “Both Vice Principal Jin Kyung-hee and Jang Won-gi were dismissed?”
[Because it’s real. School is in chaos right now. The Office of Education made a fuss about investigating teacher corruption, and rumor has it that the two people who were fired are also being investigated by the prosecution. You too be careful. If this incident spreads to that point, you and other children may become dangerous.]
“Thank you first, and I’ll contact you later.”
Pop.
I hung up.
Goosebumps appeared all over my body.
That happened then.
On the day of Operation Blackout, Choi Myung-hoon was exposed to extreme violence and lost his mind. And when he opened his eyes, he found himself in his hospital room. In fact, even at that time, he felt despair that the operation had failed and was confident that Kim Hyun-seong’s life was over. There are many victims who were taken to the hospital because of Kim Hyun-seong, so how can Kim Hyun-seong, who is just an individual, handle it?
But why?
Nothing happened.
The school was busy covering up the incident, and the Office of Education suddenly stepped in and even the teacher was punished.
What does that mean?
‘It probably means that the Golden Circle has taken a step back. Does this make sense? I’ve handled numerous requests in the Golden Circle so far, but I’ve never once seen myself this helpless. Jin Kyung-hee and Jang Won-gi represent the Golden Circle, but Kim Hyun-seong is a threat enough to abandon them.’
My mind was complicated.
Golden Circle.
It is a group that displays success.
As we pursue perfect results, when a case of failure like Kim Hyun-seong occurs, we make it a ‘successful result’ regardless of the means and methods. But this time was different. I accepted the fact that I lost against Kim Hyun-seong. Even though the media paid attention and the entire school knew about the incident, Kim Hyun-seong admitted that he was formidable enough to abandon two people who were clearly members of the Golden Circle.
It was the first.
It was an unprecedented incident.
Choi Myung-hoon could not come to his senses due to the strange flow.
‘If I go back to school in this condition… … .’
Moment.
My body was shaking.
I was scared.
Kim Hyun-seong reached himself through a crowd of dozens of people, and even grabbed Jo Min-seok’s knife with his hand, defeating everyone. Every time a fist lands on his face. The intense shock that struck my entire body made me realize deep in my bones that I could never defeat Kim Hyun-seong. If he went back to the school he was holding on to, his future was certain.
It was over.
Even if my body was fine, it wasn’t enough, and there was nothing I could do with my broken arm.
“… … f*ck, no matter how I look at it, it looks like X.”
There was no way the Golden Circle could help.
Jin Kyung-hee and Jang Won-ki.
It was his future.
Since he had to return to school in a few days, he needed special measures to survive.
Choi Myung-hoon, who had been thinking for a while, called someone.
Take off.
“Hey, gather all the kids tomorrow. “Because I have something to say about the Kim Hyun-seong issue.”
* * *
next day.
Choi Myung-hoon went to the agreed upon location.
Wearing a cast and a hood pulled down, he showed a miserable expression as he looked at the students gathered in groups of twos and threes.
“… … “They don’t make any sense.”
Blackout incident.
These were the students who participated at that time.
The swelling on Choi Myung-hoon’s face had not gone down, but no one was worse than Choi Myung-hoon. It was fortunate that his face was covered in speckled bruises, and children with broken limbs wore casts, just like Choi Myung-hoon. When I thought that only one person made this, a feeling of fear came over me.
The monster that created this result.
We need to reunite with Kim Hyun-seong.
If I were alone, I might have chosen to drop out, but I tried to calm my anxious feelings because I was ahead of the crowd.
“The reason I called you all together is because we have to go back to school soon. You may have heard it through rumors, but both Vice Principal Jin Gyeong-hee and Jang Won-gi have passed away. It probably means that the Golden Circle doesn’t care about us, let alone the teachers who will protect us. In times like these, we need to come together even more. “If Kim Hyun-sung tries to mess with us, we have to show through collective action that we won’t just be tolerated.”
“… … .”
The answer did not come readily.
Aren’t they the ones who acted as a group and were punished?
In particular, Choi Myung-hoon’s face was distorted fiercely when he saw Jo Min-seok silently keeping his mouth shut in the corner.
“Hey, Jo Min-seok.”
“… … why?”
“Why aren’t you saying anything? “Still, S-class bastard, shouldn’t you step up and do something?”
Everyone saw Jo Min-seok.
His face was more messed up than anyone else’s.
His face was sunken, and he had to undergo plastic surgery.
Jo Min-seok reacted fiercely.
“… … f*ck, what are you telling me to do? Kim Hyun-seong, that bastard is not a human cub. He’s the guy who stabbed me with a knife and stabbed me with his bare hands and made me like this. Do you think he’ll blink an eye if we stick together? I really don’t know what to do. “I feel like I want to drop out, but I just can’t do it because the Golden Circle hasn’t told me anything.”
“You idiot.”
Jo Min-seok’s will was broken.
I was out of my mind.
Even so.
I couldn’t leave like this.
First of all, shouldn’t we survive?

Myung-Hoon Choi said.
“Everyone listen carefully. We don’t have a choice anyway. Now that it is not easy to drop out of school without permission from the Golden Circle, nothing will change even if you ignore the future that is right in front of you. We have to protect ourselves. “If we stay still, we are in a situation where we will inevitably suffer, so shouldn’t we turn the situation around even if there is just a 1% chance?”
“… … that’s right.”
“I will follow you, senior.”
attracted public opinion.
As everyone’s eyes brightened little by little, Choi Myung-hoon also regained his confidence.
“Yes, we are one from now on. “If we scatter, we all fall apart, so never act individually.”
* * *
A few days after that.
Finally returned to school.
My heart was pounding.
In the past, the road to school was enjoyable, and people enjoyed power as powerful predators in the kingdom of school.
It was different now.
I was reduced to the weak in a world where the jungle is strong.
As I entered the class, trying to calm my trembling heart, the classroom suddenly became quiet as if cold water had been poured on it.
“… … .”
“… … .”
Everyone’s attention was focused.
I was very annoyed.
These guys, who I couldn’t even look at in the past, were openly glancing at me, and I wanted to punch them in the face. But it couldn’t be done. The victims’ coming together was not to directly respond to Kim Hyun-seong, but was merely a struggle to ensure the minimum right to survival. I knew very well that if I acted against Kim Hyun-seong’s wishes, even collective action would be meaningless.
I sat down weakly.
A sense of discomfort washed over me.
In the past, when I went to school, I would have one or two friends who flattered me, but the current silence was so unfamiliar.
Inside the classroom.
I was stranded on a remote island.
I quietly prepared for class.
However, 10 minutes before class started, a classmate came to me and said.
“Hey, you and the kids are going to the gym for a long time.”
that word.
My heart sank.
I instinctively knew what it meant.
It would be Kim Hyun-seong.
It was clear that Hyunseong Kim had called him.
I couldn’t refuse.
Since it was a reality that he would have to face one day, Myung-Hoon Choi stood up and pretended as if nothing had happened.
He said the fortunate part was the kids.
Meaning it’s not just you.
It was as expected.
At the gym was the same group I met a few days ago.
With only Kim Hyun-seong in front of them, they huddled together on one side like frightened herbivores.
“long time no see?”
“… … I know.”
It wasn’t like Choi Myung-hoon.
Kim Hyun-seong avoided his gaze.
He walked toward the crowd and proved with his actions that he was no different from others.
Hyunseong Kim spoke to the group.
“You probably had a lot to think about before you go back to school. To get straight to the point, I have no intention of harming any of you. If dozens of students drop out of one school, problems will arise. One year from now. “If you keep quiet and don’t make a sound until I graduate from school, I promise I won’t bother you.”
The group’s expressions brightened.
The moment you think you survived.
“the problem is.”
Hyunseong Kim laughed.
“It means that not everyone here needs to stay in school. Someone who led that incident at the time must take responsibility in order to set a clear precedent for everyone. In that sense, I will give you a chance. Myung-Hoon Choi and Min-Seok Jo. If you want to survive, crush them both right in front of my eyes. “So that I can no longer stay in this school.”
Their gazes became intertwined.
Even though no one said it first.
“f*ck.”
“Attack!”
Everyone except Choi Myung-hoon and Cho Min-seok attacked the two people at the same time.
* * *
It was a sudden situation.
Before Jo Min-seok could react, the kid right next to him threw a punch.
Sigh!
“evil!”
There was no time to escape.
When Cho Min-seok fell, Choi Myung-hoon immediately stepped back.
Just like Jo Min-seok, the kids around him rushed at him, but he was not helpless.
Swish.
Bah!
He dodged the punch and hit his face.
One arm was in a cast, so he couldn’t use his strength properly, but he had no problem knocking down his opponent with just one fist. The problem was that there were not just one or two opponents. By the time I could retrieve my fist, one or two more people had already rushed towards me, and there was a limit to how much I could turn my head this way and that and let go of the fist.
puck.
Bang, bang!
I got hit a few times.
Choi Myung-hoon gritted his teeth.
In the meantime, I counterattacked at the same time as I was hit, and knocked down several more people.
‘What about Jo Min-seok?’
I glanced and confirmed.
Jo Min-seok had already left.
He had his face caved in and had to undergo surgery, and he lost his fighting ability right after the first blow.
In the first place, he achieved S rank through the cruel hands of using weapons, and he was not that great of a person in terms of pure force. On the other hand, the number of opponents is dozens. And since they were the kids he had specially called in to deal with Kim Hyun-seong, they were all confident in their own way in fighting.
I was cornered.
It was a different development than expected.
‘Kim Hyun-seong, you f*cking bastard.’
Fighting back as a group.
By cutting out himself and Cho Min-seok, Kim Hyun-seong cut off the only strategy for survival.
He was a scary guy.
If it got to this point, I had no choice but to drop out, but my priority was to get out of here right now.
hook.
Bah!
There was no space.
There was no way out as the situation was attacking us from all directions, and if things continued like this, it was only a matter of time before it finally collapsed.
‘Let’s buy time. It was soon time for class to start. If this many students don’t participate in class, the teachers will think it’s strange even if Jin Kyung-hee and Jang Won-ki are not there. For now, the only way is to hold on as long as possible.’
That too.
It was just a gamble.
But we can’t just let things go on like this, right?
I saw my junior running towards me.
The guy who said he would follow him now turned on his eyes and swung his fist.
sudden.
Bah!
Exquisite counter.
The other person’s face turned and collapsed.
Even if my arm is broken.
Even if your face is a mess.
Myung-Hoon Choi was Myung-Hoon Choi.
Proving that he was in S+ grade, Myung-Hoon Choi gradually moved to the corner.
My back was against the wall.
It was the best method when dealing with a large number of people.
Just then I heard a bell.
As he struggled against the evil even more, Kim Hyun-seong’s voice was heard over the crowd that was rushing around.
“why? Do you think anything will work out if we buy time?”
Among the crowds tangled together.
Kim Hyun-seong appeared.
Choi Myung-hoon had goosebumps all over his body.
Even though there was shouting and chaos everywhere, Kim Hyun-seong’s voice strangely penetrated my ears clearly.
“The teachers already know the situation here. This place is now.”
Then I realized.
The choice itself of going to school.
From the moment I met Kim Hyun-seong again, I realized that I had made the wrong choice.
“It means it’s not the school you know.”
