Admission is a waste of time (13)
Lesson 4. Rebellion – 1
Dawn, dormitory.
Ban Yu-won and Light were facing each other across the table.
“I’m a little disappointed, Ban.”
Ban Yu-won thought, “Is this the kind of disappointing company commander that I’ve only heard rumors about?”
In fact, I was still drunk and my head wasn’t working properly.
“I never thought you’d stay out overnight. If you had at least told me in advance, I wouldn’t have worried.”
“Sorry. I drank alcohol for the first time in my life yesterday.”
“… … .”
Light’s eyes became even colder.
Well, it wasn’t a proper reason, and it was natural for him to look at me like that when he said he drank and stayed out the night.
But if he found out the real situation, he wouldn’t be able to just say anything to him.
“Professor Yumina asked me to drink with her, but I just couldn’t refuse.”
“What, Professor?! You’re not lying… … right?”
Light glanced at the brooch hanging on Ban Yu-won’s chest and shook his head in disbelief.
“If I told you that I got a proxy position from Professor Jeong after drinking alcohol, no one at the Academy would believe me.”
“Huh.”
Is this what the agency symbolizes?
Not only when I received the brooch, but even while sharing a drink with Professor Yumina yesterday, not a single word about that came up!
“Oh, and the alcohol was really tasty. I brought you a bottle, so let’s drink it together later.”
“You… … Haa, no, that’s okay. I’ve never had a drink before.”
“I drank it for the first time yesterday too?”
“I’m not going to drink it. Wash up quickly. You smell like flowers.”
It was true what they said about the scent of flowers.
Honeymoon, a fruit wine made by the priests of the Temple of Spring, was a rare wine that was warm and sweet when drunk, and made your whole body smell like flowers after drinking it.
Not only did it taste good, but Ban Yu-won’s body codes also grew by 3 to 4 times.
The most surprising thing is that because it is something you drink with your mouth, even your ten thousand words, which had been fixed at 100 until now, went up by two.
‘It felt like a real elixir, not a fake elixir I made. I would have been a bit disappointed if there hadn’t been that kind of growth.’
After delivering alcohol to Professor Yumina and returning to the dormitory, I was trying to prepare some things, but I got caught up in her work and the whole time flew by.
Anyway, I’m glad it ended well, but apart from that, I didn’t feel like working with Professor Yumina in the future.
“Then I’ll wash up. Do you still have some time before breakfast?”
“First period is ‘Actual Combat Comprehensive’, and since it’s the gym, I’ll have to eat and hurry. Class 1… … It’s a joint class with a special class that only one class in the first year has.”
Special class refers to an elite class where only the most outstanding students in that grade are deliberately gathered.
But you’re going to tie them together with the special 4-member lower-dimensional special team? What kind of crazy idea is that?
“Hey, why do you feel ill will towards that composition?”
After taking off the brooch and putting it in his inventory, Ban Yu-won took off his school uniform and said with a shaky expression.
Light turned his head away as if he didn’t want to see a man in his underwear.
“Me too. I guess our enemies aren’t just among the students. And if you’re going to take your clothes off, take them off in the shower.”
“Ah, how can I hide without being noticed… … . I’ll just wash up and come out.”
“half.”
“huh?”
Meanwhile, Ban Yu-won took off the shirt he was wearing under his uniform and turned around, revealing his abs that were incredibly firm considering his training period.
Light turned his head in horror and asked in a slightly hesitant voice.
“You… … didn’t just drink alcohol all day yesterday, did you?”
“How can that be, how can a person drink alcohol all day long?”
“… … I guess so. Sorry, wash up.”
“Okay.”
Ban Yu-won waved his hand and entered the shower room.
It seemed that Light had noticed the change in him.
Actually, when he was attending the entrance ceremony, Ban Yu-won’s concept of life was around 15, but now, with the honeymoon effect added in, it’s exactly 50.
Of course, it would still be a paltry number compared to Light, but even taking that into account, I was confident that the change was significant.
“Oh, I forgot to take out my clothes. Light, sorry, but could you please take them out for me?”
“You, don’t ever come out of there! I’ll get you out!”
As light.
It’s still suspicious.
So when does act 3 start?
* * *
During breakfast time, Ban Yu-won and Light headed to the student cafeteria building built near the dormitory and were able to join up with Ruchel and Dokgo-yeon without much difficulty.
How could I ignore the blatant stares pouring down on them? I took the breakfast menu, sat down at the same table, and told them about the great work I had with Professor Yumina yesterday.
“Because it’s a proxy position… … .”
“Yes, it’s pretty.”
These were the reactions that came out from Dokgo Yeon and Ruchel respectively.
Of course, where Ruchel’s gaze was directed was the brooch hanging on Ban Yu-won’s chest.
“Pointing to it, Light said.
“Professor Yumina is currently in charge of the four of us, so the class that gets that position can be seen as the class president of our class.”
“Well, if there’s someone who represents the four of us, I think it should be me.”
Today’s breakfast was Western style, and Dokgoyeon stared at Ban Yuwon as he pushed the soup plate to the side, perhaps not liking the thick soup that tasted like potage.

“Because I’m the strongest. Do you agree?”
“what?”
Before Ban Yu-won could respond, Light responded to those words.
He wiggled his eyebrows and pointed at Dokgoyeon with the fork he was holding.
“That’s a bit weird, Dokgoyeon. I didn’t want to say this because we’re colleagues who should be on good terms… … No, that’s why I think I have to make it even more clear. That attitude of ignoring everyone else as if you’re the best is definitely not good for your future climb. I also don’t agree with the statement that you’re the strongest.”
“That’s funny. I remember you were the first one to ignore us yesterday. Didn’t you say you wanted to go up to the tower alone?”
“Huh?! You… … !”
Ban Yu-won ended up laughing heartily.
I was planning on coming up with a plan in advance since we’d be taking a special class starting from the first period, but these guys were already showing signs of internal strife.
“Shaaaaak.”
“Huh?”
“and.”
At that time, Eve took Ban Yoo-won’s place, revealed her presence by releasing her transparency, and cooled down the heated atmosphere between the two.
The effect was surprisingly great.
Dokgo Yeon, who saw Eve’s appearance, widened his pupils and seemed to suppress his killing intent, then he wrapped one of Ban Yu-won’s arms around her and held out his hand to Eve, who raised her head.
“That artifact from yesterday?”
“It’s changed quite a bit, hasn’t it?”
“Could it be that it started like this yesterday… … No, no. It really did change in one day. How could this be… … .”
“Shaaaa.”
Eve raised her head and showed off.
Dokgo Yeon, who realized that he was being understood, opened his eyes wide and sighed, as if he had lost the will to get angry.
“You’re cute. … … Okay, since you impressed me, let me hear what you have to say first.”
It was a strange logic, but Eve’s trick worked.
Ban Yu-won sighed, and although he didn’t really want to be the class president, he was certain that if he had to choose a representative among these four, it had to be him…
The persuasion began.
“Actually, there is no need for the class president to be the strongest. No, I should say that he shouldn’t be the strongest.”
“Why?”
“Well, if the strongest person becomes the class president, everyone will make decisions as they please. But the class president can’t do that.”
Dokgo Yeon rotated the cross pupil to indicate that he wanted to continue.
I hope you don’t do that, it’s really scary.
“I think you’re mistaken about one thing. The class president is not a ruler. He doesn’t lead everyone according to his will, but he has to have the ability to synthesize the opinions of the members and find a method that is as fair and good as possible for everyone. In other words, the class president should be the most objective and neutral person possible.”
“That sounds really boring.”
“That’s the class president. It’s not something that you gain from, and it’s just a headache. But that’s why it’s important. An individual who sacrifices for the group, that’s what a class president is… … .”
“But that’s just what you think the class president is like, right?”
Tch, I got caught.
Of course, it is true that most class presidents selected in elementary, middle, and high school education in Korea do not deviate from the type that Ban Yu-won mentioned.
But isn’t this an academy made up of people with abilities?
In a society where power is important, power is law.
As Ban Yu-won said, there may be a representative who makes fair and objective decisions while considering everyone’s position.
There could have been any number of representatives who led the members with overwhelming power and charisma.
Moreover, it couldn’t be said that it was definitely wrong.
There is a reason why they say that no matter where you go, you will only get to Seoul.
‘However, if we choose a representative among the four of us, it will be difficult for the lone wolf to dominate.’
It’s not a question of scale.
Rather, charismatic leaders tend to lead small groups better than large ones.
The problem now was the individuality of these four.
Even if you just look at Light, you can see that he has such strong pride that he is still in conflict with Dokgo Yeon.
In reality, even if Dokgo Yeon can suppress Light with force now, Light is not easily bent and the problem will come up sooner or later.
The case of Ruchel is even more problematic, because even though we’ve only known each other for two days, it’s obvious that he’s surprisingly unassertive.
Just ignore them because they have no self-assertion? That is completely ignoring the Academy’s essential theme of student growth.
This type of person needed a leader who would calmly wait and listen to them so that they could demonstrate their abilities.
This was something that could be said with certainty, especially since it was Ban Yoo-won who could see through her dazzling potential.
“I’m the more timid type so it’s okay, but I think it’s better for me to be the class president than you to bring out the individuality of all four of us.”
“Sudder? You?”
For some reason, Dokgo Yeon laughed at that part.
But perhaps convinced by those words, she soon nodded.
“I understand. It seems like the appointment of class president is under the professor’s authority anyway. And to begin with, you’re the only one I really want to take under my wing.”
“Huh.”
I got goosebumps for a moment.
But before I could ask what that meant, she continued.
“But please don’t misunderstand. I just acknowledged that you are the class president and have no intention of listening to your orders.”
“I don’t really intend to give any specific instructions. However, I would like to see some level of communication and cooperation between the four of you for your growth. What do you think about that?”
“… … .”
Dokgoyeon looked at Light and Ruchel without saying anything and snorted as if he didn’t like it.
but.
“He who stands above must know how to see far… … Even if some of it is not to his liking, he must know how to embrace everything in order to get what he wants. Alright. Let’s do that.”
Somehow I was able to end the argument with Dokgo Yeon in a win-win situation.
There was still the minor problem of Light being angry at Dokgo Yeon’s words, but in fact, Dokgo Yeon seemed stronger than Light… … This kind of pride issue would have to be resolved over time.
As expected, the biggest bomb is this guy Light.
I sighed involuntarily.
“I… … over there.”
But just as Ban Yu-won was pondering how to lead this bomb to a misfire, Ruchel, who had been quiet until now, spoke cautiously.
“Snake… … Can I touch it too? It’s cute… … .”
“As much as you want!”
Let’s correct that.
It’s full of bombs.
* * *
In this way, the problem of recognizing Ban Yu-won as one of the four representatives was somehow solved.
Light just didn’t like the fact that Dokgoyeon had stepped forward to say that the strongest person should be the representative, and he had no particular complaints from the beginning about Yumina choosing Ban Yuwon as the representative.
Dokgo Yeon openly stated that she liked Ban Yu-won personally (he clearly realized that her feelings were like those of a corporate executive who headhunts capable people) and openly stated that she would step down out of consideration for him.
Lucelle said that Eve was so cute, and Ban Yu-won was delighted to meet her and smiled shyly for the first time.
He’s surprisingly cute, but I really don’t know him.
“I think we’ll have a light sparring session for the first class. What do you think?”
“Professor, I’m shaking… … No, I’m curious about the skills of the students who passed the special admissions process!”
“I want to try my hand at them too!”
And Ban Yu-won, who became the class president representing the four, faced difficulties from the first class.
“That bastard, Bisil, dared to receive a brooch from Professor Yumina, who is called the Goddess of Flowers? I absolutely cannot accept that. I will have to personally verify her skills!”
A very great hardship.
