Admission is a waste of time (188)

Lesson 37. Let me rest because it’s vacation – 3

“Hello, I’m Yumi’s friend, Lee Hyun-ji!”

“I’m Yumi’s junior, Yujina! I’ve heard a lot about you since high school!”

“I told you to come alone, Kang Mi-yeon!”

“I came alone, Yumi. They just followed me. Please take care of me, Yuwon. Do you want Miyeon to call you Noona?”

The four people who introduced themselves as executives of Oculus Louver only introduced themselves to Ban Yu-won, as they already knew each other’s families.

I thought I had heard of Ban Yu-won, but they were all fencing players on the national team.

Among them, only Kang Mi-yeon had competed in the Olympics with Ban Yu-mi when they were still high school students, winning a bronze medal in the individual sabre event and a gold medal in the team sabre event. The other two had competed in the Asian Games held last year, winning gold medals together with Ban Yu-mi in the team sabre event.

It is said that he was training hard in the athletes’ village with the goal of winning a medal in the next Olympics…

“Now we don’t even know if the Olympics will be held or not.”

“Don’t be so hard. I don’t have to check each player’s level and power one by one.”

“Why don’t we have something like the Ability Olympics? Dividing them into sections by level.”

I had tea and chatted in the living room with the guild members who arrived too early.

Even while they were talking, Ban Yu-won often felt their gazes locking on him and flying towards him… … .

In particular, the most blatant was Lee Hyun-ji, who was Ban Yu-mi’s college classmate, and the most unobtrusive was Kang Mi-yeon, who gave off the most mature impression among those gathered here.

‘I can read even the concept of movement in my eyes, so it’s all exposed… … .’

To fool my movements in front of him, I would have to be at least as skilled as Dokgo Yeon.

What on earth does his older sister usually say about him that makes these people so interested in him? Ban Yu-won thought with a deep sigh.

No, of course it’s not just because of that.

Right now, people all over the world are probably showing similar or greater interest in the Banyuwon.

“I have a question.”

Soon, Lee Hyun-ji launched a direct offensive.

“Was that the video concept or was it real?”

There’s no need to ask what the video is talking about.

Ban Yu-won wondered what kind of torture this was and checked to see if there were any family members around.

Fortunately, my father and grandfather were at work and my mother was in the kitchen.

-puck

Meanwhile, Ban Yu-mi condemned her friend.

“Lee Hyun-ji, stop talking nonsense. Seriously.”

“Oh, why, you were all curious! It was hotter than any adult video!”

“Why is the local sister so local?”

“Besides, it looks even uglier because there is a hint of regret that can’t be hidden.”

“You all are going too far… … !”

Indeed, among these members, the one who plays the light role (the role of getting hit) is Lee Hyun-ji.

Ban Yoo-won, who had quickly figured it out, shook his head, but Ruchel, who was laughing brightly next to him, suddenly spoke.

“Do you also want to be a woman of Yuwon?”

“Pfft――.”

Kang Mi-yeon, who was leisurely drinking tea while yearning for Lee Hyun-ji, couldn’t hold it in any longer and blurted it out.

Ban Yu-won caught all the concepts of liquid floating in the air, retrieved and destroyed them, and hit Ruchel on the head with a chestnut.

“Refrain from expressing yourself.”

“Yes? But I held myself back.”

I’m so scared of what would have come out if I hadn’t held myself back.

Kang Mi-yeon was surprised by Ban Yu-won’s nonchalant gesture, but she trembled as she looked at Ruchel, who was smiling naturally.

“First of all… … I understand that it’s not a concept… … .”

“Hey! Is it okay for Yuwon to meet other women?”

Lee Hyun-ji bravely charged forward again.

Yujina was looking at Hyunji like a villager A who was looking at a warrior.

“Of course it’s not okay. But it’s only natural for females to be attracted to strong males. If you can’t accept reality and just sit there and stamp your feet, you’ll just be eliminated.”

“No, your way of thinking is different from that of humans… …! Gangmyeon, change!”

Kang Mi-yeon opened her mouth again, kicking away the shattered and scattered Lee Hyeon-ji.

“As a woman, you want a man who only loves you. That’s important to us. If that doesn’t work out, you find another man.”

“? But there’s only one Yuwon?”

“indeed.”

Kang Mi-yeon understood Ruchel’s logic perfectly.

“If you have an absolute priority, everything else will get better, so there’s nothing you can do about it.”

“This society will soon change like that.”

Ruchel smiled and declared confidently after hearing Kang Mi-yeon’s observations that were still at the level of analyzing the ecology of aliens living on other stars.

“The external threat is strong, and we become stronger when we come together. We will naturally reach the stage where we can trust each other, the smallest unit, the size of a family. Centered around one strong and trustworthy head of the household. That could be a man like Yu-won, or a woman like Hyung-nim.”

“Oh, yeah?”

“There are many dimensions, and among them, there are many races that form families centered around women. This is usually the case when women are superior to men. Right, Yuwon?”

“Ah――That’s right. You learned it in class. You remember it well, Ruchel.”

“Because Yuwon helped me! Hehehe.”

Ruchel, who seemed to be happy about Ban Yoo-won’s compliments, was lying on his lap and purring and acting cute.

The four Earthlings looked at that and said nothing more.

Kang Mi-yeon was lost in thought, recalling what Ruchel had just said.

“Certainly, I have seen statistics showing that humanity is rapidly decreasing despite the fact that dedicated organizations have been set up in various places and that they are actively dealing with monsters. If things continue this way, we may have no choice but to fundamentally change our way of thinking in order to preserve the population… … .”

“Gangmyeon, what are you seriously thinking about?”

“You’re serious. Mr. Ruchel is from a world where mana civilization was more advanced than ours. I think there’s a high chance that it will turn out as Mr. Ruchel says.”

“… … Is that so?”

Lee Hyun-ji had very thin ears.

“Besides, the point of what Mr. Ruchel said is that the strong will eventually be able to attract many women. If I become strong, I will be able to attract a lot of handsome men.”

“oh……!”

Lee Hyeon-ji was completely taken in by Kang Mi-yeon’s words.

“Now that I hear it, it’s true! It’s said that a woman who changes men every day is a trash woman, but a woman who has a lot of men around is a successful woman! That’s right, you can legally achieve your reverse harem dream!”

“Well, I’d rather have a strong and cool guy who can protect me than an awkward guy who I have to protect… … .”

Kang Mi-yeon quietly expresses her secret wish while watching Lee Hyun-ji, who has fallen completely into a trap, talking nonsense.

Ban Yu-mi reacted to those words by glaring fiercely, but Ruchel, who was enjoying Ban Yu-won’s lap, nodded as if agreeing with those words.

“That’s right. Women naturally want a man who will protect them. Even if there are other women around, if there is a man who cannot be given up, it is reasonable to try to gain favor from those closest to him. And if possible, it would be even better if he is in a position to manage other women.”

Indeed, that was why Ruchel had initially thrown out a word about testing the executives of Oculus Louver, and the group understood perfectly.

“Still, it’s still hard to accept. It’s emotionally overwhelming.”

“Of course, it’s ridiculous to allow my boyfriend to two-timing me!”

“Huh? … … That, that’s right. Then, that’s right!”

Kang Mi-yeon speaks firmly and cuts it off, and Yu Ji-na nods her head vigorously as if she had been waiting for those words.

… … And Lee Hyun-ji, who was dreaming of a reverse harem, was startled by her friends’ cold words and agreed.

They were really fun people.

“Okay, I understand. Then you guys are out of the question.”

Lucelle answered with a grin.

“If by any chance you approach Yuwon in the future, you can think of it as an attempt to steal Yuwon away from me.”

And then he added something like that lightly and smiled.

Others, who guessed what was hidden behind it, could not help but laugh.

“Isn’t it about time?”

“Oh, that’s right! The reporters are coming. Everyone, don’t be dumbfounded and get ready.”

At the words that Ban Yu-won threw out with a bitter smile, Ban Yu-mi suddenly stood up and shouted.

Although it seemed to everyone that Ruchel’s words had shaken him the most, his kind friends did not point it out.

* * *

“Question. Mr. Ban Yu-won, so you’re saying that you haven’t completely returned to Earth?”

“As mentioned in the video, Union Academy’s vacation is not short. It’s even more so if you finish the special activities that are scheduled before the vacation quickly. I finished the special activities that were supposed to be two weeks in less than a week, so my vacation is even longer. I plan to stay on Earth for a little less than two months.”

The press conference was held in a very gentle atmosphere because Ban Yu-mi had carefully selected and invited only reporters who were friendly to them and would not make rash remarks.

However, that doesn’t mean we can only exchange questions and answers that are safe to ask.

This was especially true considering that this press conference was being broadcast live around the world.

“Miss Ruchel is the first extra-dimensional visitor to visit Earth. Are you aware of the claims being made by some… …?”

All sorts of nonsense were popping up on the Internet, such as that Ruchel might be carrying some kind of fungus that is harmful to humans, that she is the vanguard of an alien invasion force, that she is a monster, and that, in extreme cases, she should not only be killed but dissected and thoroughly examined.

The problem is that there are clearly those who claim that seriously.

There were even more of these people when they expanded outside of Korea.

“If Ruchel is in danger for whatever reason, then it means the same for me, who was with Ruchel the whole time. Of course, I have no intention of handing myself or Ruchel’s new recruits over to anyone else.”

“Oculus Louver officially protects the two. All investigations have already been completed regarding them, and we are considering legal action if anyone makes any more ridiculous claims.”

Ban Yu-mi, sitting on his left, nodded and added to Ban Yu-won’s words.

All the investigations are over, you idiot, you bastard, without even licking your lips.

While thinking like that, Ban Yu-won naturally agreed.

“I just came home with my girlfriend for the holidays. I’m honestly surprised that Earth has undergone dimensional evolution, and I plan to spare no effort in cooperating with my sister’s guild during the holidays for a better future.”

“So you’re saying you want to join the Oculus Louver? But I understand that only women are allowed to join the Oculus Louver… … .”

“I’m going to make an exception for Yuwon. The reason I originally didn’t allow men to join was to avoid causing conflict within the guild, and since Yuwon is my family member and the guild master, there’s no need to worry. He’s strong, more than anything.”

“So you’re saying that the guild’s external policy remains the same?”

“Yuwon will be the only exception.”

Ban Yu-mi said that and closed her mouth for a moment, then added with a smile that seemed to be made up on purpose.

“We will also be receiving support requests for G-rank and higher dungeons in the future. This means that Oculus Luber will take care of the bombs that each country is holding onto and unable to handle.”

“Is that really possible?!”

Today’s biggest bombshell announcement has journalists reeling.

Ban Yu-won was also shaken.

What is a G-Rank Dungeon?

If you’re going to talk about something like this, shouldn’t we get our shit together before the press conference?!

Oh, I was listening to Ruchel’s alien love theory back then!

[I think this is where the danger of the dungeon is classified alphabetically, Master.]

At that time, Lilith used resonance to send a message that only he could hear.

[Starting from the smallest unit, A, it seems to increase in proportion to the amount of mana the dungeon holds and the level of the monsters. The maximum dungeon that has been dealt with by the current human power is F. It seems that the Oculus Louver Guild, which is in front of the Master right now, has dealt with it.]

‘Indeed, if you leave the dungeon alone, it will run wild or backfire, so it’s better to divide it into stages and deal with it quickly. There’s also the issue of infection waves.’

Ban Yu-won, who was nodding inwardly in agreement with the explanation of the release, suddenly became curious and asked a question.

‘But how do you know, Lilith?’

[Since the moment I arrived on Earth yesterday, I have been controlling all communication networks on Earth and collecting information from this world. I am also connected to all of Earth’s satellites, so I can obtain information from any area you want.]

‘Perfect, release!’

Ban Yu-won nodded in agreement as he recalled that the release had absorbed a massive amount of electrical energy and cores from Room 94 of the Tower of Babel, allowing it to manipulate electricity itself.

Actually, I’m not sure how that connects to taking control of the communications network, but since it’s possible to release it, then it’s possible.

‘Anyway, up until now, the most I could do was clear F-rank dungeons, and even then, only things like Oculus Louver were possible, but now that I’m included in the force, does that mean I can clear G-rank dungeons that could go out of control at any time?’

[That’s correct, Master. It would be great for winning over public sentiment.]

Ban Yu-mi didn’t come up with the idea alone, but… Ban Yu-won agreed that it was a very clever idea.

Even if there are those who feel resentful upon hearing that two asymmetrical forces, Ban Yu-won and Ruchel, have suddenly joined Korea, wouldn’t it be impossible to be hostile if they personally step forward and declare that they will deal with other countries’ dungeons?

“Of course, you wouldn’t believe me if I just said I would clear a G-rank dungeon. So, tomorrow, I plan to clear a G-rank dungeon in our country.”

“This is great news!”

Judging by the reporters’ inability to hide their excitement, it seems that the G-rank dungeon was indeed a serious threat.

If Ban Yu-won were to guess, someone who heard that the Oculus Louver Guild had cleared the F-rank dungeon recklessly challenged the G-rank dungeon out of a competitive spirit and got destroyed… … or maybe a wave occurred.

Maybe both.

[How did you know?!]

‘How much is the jjambbap?’

As Ban Yu-won smiled proudly, the reporters who heard his smile as confidence in the G-rank dungeon let out exclamations.

There Ban Yu-mi drove a wedge in.

“Once the elite party of Oculus Louver clears the G-rank dungeon, then I plan to start receiving requests for support. Of course, the selection must be fair.”

Selection is fair.

There is probably no one watching this press conference who does not understand what Ban Yu-mi means.

The point was that if you want protection, you have to figure it out yourself.

Ban Yu-won chuckled as he listened to his sister’s closing remarks, and then suddenly became curious and asked Lilith.

‘What’s so special about G-Rank dungeons that everyone is like this?’

[I think it’s a G-Rank when a monster of up to level 70 appears. It seems that it can also be upgraded depending on the level of the boss.]

‘It’s dog gum.’

It probably started at level 10, the maximum, with A rank, and then increased by one level at a time.

No, wait a minute.

‘So you’re saying that the maximum level for an F-rank dungeon is 60?’

Let’s check Ban Yumi’s level once again.

50.

Among the other members, Kang Mi-yeon is the highest level at 43.

‘… … How on earth did you clear it?’

Ban Yu-won, who had been hunting enemies of a higher rank than himself, was shocked to hear of his sister’s record.

While he was surprised, the press conference ended without a hitch――After all the reporters had disappeared, Ban Yu-mi bowed her head to him for a rare moment.

“I should have explained this in advance, sorry… …! Those damn bitches just barged in and started talking nonsense.”

I never would have thought that my older sister would know how to bow her head.

Ban Yu-won was a little taken aback by the thought that his older sister had really changed a lot, from the mature attitude she showed throughout the press conference to the way she treated Ruchel.

“Even so, it’s only about level 70. Don’t worry about it.”

“Even so, it’s useless.”

Yujina (level 36), who had been silently guarding Ban Yumi’s back throughout the press conference, said with a bitter smile.

“Yuwon, what level are you?”

“My level, that is.”

When I checked my health, it had increased by 2, making it 897.

He could have rounded it up, but he boldly left out the latter part and explained it.

“It’s 89.”

“lie?!”

“Ruchel, what level are you?”

“Let’s see, thanks to Yuwon, I’ve really grown a lot this time… … I’ve reached 120. Of course, if I were to really fight Yuwon, he’d win by a landslide.”

“Overwhelmingly difficult. You have a wild heart now.”

Ban Yu-won snickers and responds to Ruchel’s remark that he overestimates himself.

Although Ruchel originally had less than a thousand lives, he has reached this monstrous level by burning his wild heart and permanently replacing vast amounts of wildness with his core concepts.

Of course, even if he did this, he wouldn’t be able to match Dokgo Yeon, but if he started fighting with his wild heart, even Dokgo Yeon wouldn’t be able to be underestimated.

“89 was surprising, but 120… … .”

“I’m glad we didn’t talk about this at the press conference.”

“I guess I would have just been called a fraud.”

“89… … .”

Of course, the guild members were shocked, but the sight of my older sister Ban Yu-mi with a dumbfounded expression was particularly impressive.

Neither happy nor surprised.

If I had to say, right now my older sister… … .

“Yuwon-ah.”

The mother, who had prepared drinks for each person in the kitchen, placed a tray on the table and called Ban Yu-won’s name.

“Let me talk to Mom for a minute.”

“At this timing?”

“Yeah, at this timing.”

“okay.”

I can guess what he wants to talk about.

After Ban Yu-won finished preparing himself mentally, he let go of Ruchel’s hand that was unconsciously grabbing his sleeve and followed his mother into the bedroom.

I had expected it to be quite long, but her story was simple.

“Yuwon-ah, keep in mind. Yumi’s face must not be exposed on the Rebellion Channel.”

It’s really simple though.

It’s simple, but… … !
