Admission is a waste of time (341)
Lesson 67. Teen Family Meeting – 3
If there is one unique strength about the power of the Banyuwon, it is that it can be approached from a completely different perspective than the abilities that countless others use.
For example, for some reason—well, the reason is understandable—Clio Hecate, who had been bound up in bandages imbued with the power of concealment and had no choice but to hide herself, was now able to easily escape from the bandages that bound her.
All she had to do was transfer the power contained in the bandage to her body, or if not, to something else she had on her body, and set up a hidden area.
To others, it was not a change in artifact, but rather a change closer to a change in power, something that only a god could do, but to Ban Yu-won, it was just a transfer of the concept and a slight modification.
“Look.”
Rio said with a dizzying smile on his lips.
“Haven’t I already proven one reason why I am worthy of serving you?”
“Well, if you like it, then that’s fine.”
Ban Yu-won finally spoke to Rio.
It was actually a bit funny that he accepted her as his subordinate and always spoke to her politely, even though she seemed like just an older sister to him by a few years.
Yumina? … … Not only is she not one of my servants, but I am holding back from speaking informally to her because I feel like too many things will happen the moment I do so.
She is like a warm spring day, but the affection she holds for Ban Yu-won is too heavy… … .
“The bandage? Are you going to take it off now?”
“Of course not. I am yours.”
Hecate paused there, put her hand on my chest with a proud expression on her face, and let out a meaningful laugh.
“It’s best not to reveal it to anyone yet. If possible, it would be better to hide several knives in places where they can’t be seen.”
“To antagonize the president?”
“That’s not all.”
Rio glanced at him and smiled.
There, Ban Yu-won realized that she had some idea of things he didn’t say.
Although I was relieved that I didn’t know about Aire, it seems that I knew about the existence of an organization that was trying to revive the True Dragon.
“Then let’s end our meeting here today. I have already told you what to do at the meeting, so I will see you there on that day.”
“joy.”
I had a feeling that the only reason she had told me about the dangers of the gathering was so that she could smoothly join the Banyuwon side, but since he had suffered no harm in the end, I decided to give in to her words.
Just before he left the room with a snicker, Rio said, “Ah,” again.
His face was a little red.
“If you happen to miss me before then, don’t worry, I’ll leave the window open at night.”
“… … .”
[I don’t know who misses whom… … but as expected, it’s our master. The skills honed in various battlefields never go away.]
‘Be quiet.’
By the time he left the spiral staircase, the sound of his contract constellation had returned.
Ban Yu-won tried to explain to her first, worried that she might care about what happened with Rio, but Dokgo Yeon seemed to have guessed it.
―The eyes of death say that they had already accepted your fate a long time ago.
And sent a message.
… … Fate? What is my fate?!
* * *
Since the incident two years ago when the reputation of Union Academy was tarnished.
The Union’s defenses have become stronger, and countless detection and interception magics have been installed so that even if no one outside the Academy can attempt terrorism, no one inside can dare to do so.
It goes without saying that the procedures for entering and exiting the floating island where the academy is located have become more complicated.
The reason why this has not been done in the past is not because the president is incompetent, but because of the opposition of the upper-level students, including the teenage families.
There may be many reasons, but the biggest one was that they claimed that the Academy was encroaching on the authority and freedom that they should enjoy.
Since the incident two years ago, the president has been strengthening security without mercy, and since there were casualties among students and professors, the teenage family had no choice but to take a step back… … That is the superficial reason.
Now that I look at it, doesn’t the timing of the security reinforcement feel exquisite?
“Then I will conclude the lecture. Everyone, please don’t get too excited about this first special activity of the year, and be careful.”
The Thursday afternoon lecture ended while I was gazing at the magnificent Tower of Babel beyond the large windows in the classroom.
The professor was actually paying attention to the students, but most of the students were so distracted that they didn’t even respond to the professor properly.
One of the characteristics of Union is that, although there are quite a few theory-oriented lectures, most of them are ignored by many students.
In reality, each of these theories is important for climbing the tower, so students who ignore the theory lectures tend to slip at the lower part of the tower.
Since Ban Yu-won had never failed to be at the top of any theoretical subjects since the moment he entered school, he was well-liked by all the professors, except for Cantone, who openly disliked him.
“Then I’ll wake up first.”
Among them, Ban Yu-won, the only one who made eye contact with the professor and greeted him, looked back at the group and said.
Asha, who had been paying attention to Lucain Ortima, who had been sitting on one side of the classroom and radiating a dark force throughout the lecture, was startled and grabbed him.
“Where are you going today?”
“With Professor Yumina. She said she wanted to stop by the Spring Temple in Ronika before leaving.”
“ah.”
“Huh, just the two of you?”
Aire snorted.
Ban Yu-won likes Aire, but sometimes he misses the innocent, magic-obsessed Aire of his first year, who looked up to Yumina… … .
“Have a nice trip, Master. I hope this will be meaningful to them as well.”
“Well, honestly, I have no idea. I hope you won’t get angry.”
As I was leaving the classroom after greeting the members, my eyes met with those of Lucien, who was standing tall like a Nioh.
After nodding to each other and passing him, I heard the voices of the Rebellion members muttering behind me, “Yes, that’s right.”
I decided to completely ignore them because I didn’t want to confirm whatever they were thinking.
“Yuwon-ah!”
Yumina waited for him on a bench in the flower garden, the only healing spot in Union Academy, and greeted him with a bright smile.
Several couples enjoying their youth at the academy saw the scene and whispered, “Did you see that?”, “Professor Yumina… … speaking informally?!?”, “She doesn’t even think about hiding it.” However, Ban Yu-won approached her with a smile on his face.

“You look pretty today.”
“Thank you. Yuwon is awesome as always.”
It seemed that the position of Vice President gave Yumina great pride in exchange for taking away her shame.
No, actually, it’s not just because of that.
Although it may not seem like it was her original intention, she was always mindful of what other people thought and acted accordingly, but the seal of the Starlight Player, the contracted constellation Stella and her contracted constellation, had a big influence on that.
Well, it couldn’t have been anything but trauma.
However, it was resolved by the half-circle, and not only did Stella completely regain her power as a constellation, she was able to move like a human with a clone that contained half of her original power.
It was a phone call, and it was clear that this fact gave Yumina great courage.
It’s the courage to ignore the president and everything and do as you wish.
“Shall we go and look at some flowers here? Actually, my older sister planted them all.”
So, you can cross your arms and bury your head on his shoulder in front of your students.
Naturally, the students’ attention only increased.
Ban Yu-won, who had no power to even deal with the huge scandal that had already broken out last week, decided to simply follow her wishes.
“You may have seen them last week. They are flowers that only grow in our world.”
“I think I saw a few. But in the end, I couldn’t go to the spring area… … .”
“It’s a shame. Most of the priests I’m going to meet today were cute little kids back then. Except for a few teachers.”
Yumina’s face was covered in a smile that seemed like it would be the kind of smile that expressed pure happiness.
As they walked through the flower garden with her, the flowers swaying in the wind turned their heads toward them and gave off an even stronger fragrance as if welcoming them.
Her power to rule over all plants and flowers is displayed naturally, without her having to exert any effort.
… … With such tremendous power, it would naturally be associated with the Ten Clans.
Ban Yu-won, who was shaking his head with such thoughts, suddenly asked her a question out of curiosity.
“Is this flower garden approved by the president?”
“… … That’s right.”
Yumina nodded with a somewhat complicated smile, as if she had thought about what he said.
“When I was young, before I even entered Union Academy, I was afraid of this place. There were only grown-ups around, and it was dominated by a unique passion that is characteristic of those pursuing grand goals.”
“Now that I hear it, it’s true.”
When you say it like that, doesn’t it make you even more curious about what Yumina looked like as a child… …!
“I wanted to go to the Spring Temple built in Ronika. It was a much more familiar environment than Union Academy. I think I told the teacher that.”
“ah.”
“Then the teacher was very troubled… … and finally allowed me to make this garden in Union. At the time, my tutor, Stella, and I received flower seeds from the Spring Temple and diligently planted them. At that time, I had no idea it would turn out like this… … .”
Yumina’s eyes narrowed and the corners of her eyes trembled.
As if reflecting her mood, even the surrounding flowers bowed their heads and remained silent.
But as Ban Yu-won listened to her, he remembered what Rio had said yesterday.
‘If not… … Maybe that monster still had some kind of humanity left. He was a descendant of one of the ten families that survived in the Garden of the Four Seasons in the S-10 dimension that was destroyed by the Tower’s unified will. It seems like he had quite a bit of interaction with his ancestors.’
The followers who betrayed their master, the tower lord, the followers who stood by and watched, and the general who remained loyal and protected the tower until the end.
Nevertheless, the ancestors of the S-10 dimension who continued to communicate with the president… … .
What would the President think as he watched the tower he was protecting ‘integrate’ the S-10 dimension?
He, who had no interest in countless other dimensions, came to Union to rescue Yumina, the youngest of the teenage families, and the Spring Temple where she lived.
Was it just because Yumina’s potential was so enormous?
“Let’s go to the temple.”
Yumina suddenly raised her head and said.
Putting strength into the arm linked with Ban Yoo-won.
“We should show off our orchard to the priests.”
“What are you bragging about?”
“Huh?! That, that’s it.”
When I tried to intervene with Yumina, who was trying to change the subject, she looked very embarrassed and whispered softly.
“I’m your boyfriend… … .”
―The eyes of death click their tongues and say that the person who calls himself a teacher is truly an eyesore.
If you think about it, Dokgo Yeon, who taught martial arts to Ban Yu-won, seemed to be his teacher, but he decided to keep quiet because he didn’t want to be hated.
Additionally, the worries that Ban Yu-won had before finding the temple turned out to be exactly the opposite.
“You two really suit each other!”
“Congratulations!”
When Yumina and the priests showed off their relationship by linking arms and going to the temple, they welcomed her with celebratory fire as if they had been waiting for her.
No, there was even someone singing a hymn on one side.
Ban Yu-won became so dizzy.
“Now you just have to look at the successor!”
“Sob, sob, the revival of the family is just around the corner… …!”
“Yes, yes hehe?!”
Yumina was even startled by the priests’ attitude of making progress faster than she had thought.
“Oh, it’s still early! Yuwon is still a student… …!”
“But our goddess is now in a secure position.”
“You can take as much maternity leave as you want. Of course.”
“You can leave the child with us. Isn’t that the job of the Temple of Spring?”
The priests, who had been very excited, became even more serious when they heard that Ban Yu-won and Yumi-na had come to them for a reason: to attend a gathering of the top ten families in the name of their family.
Of course, they wouldn’t have opposed it.
“Miss Ban Yu-won, we may have sensed this moment from the moment you came in wearing the goddess’s brooch.”
The oldest of the priests, a female priestess who had probably been a priestess of the Temple of Spring since Yumina was young, took his hand and spoke.
“Please keep our hope alive. If you do so, we will pray for you both forever.”
“… … I promise.”
Ban Yu-won nodded.
That night, the priests were so excited that they held a banquet and went to great lengths to arrange a room for the two of them to stay in the temple, so they decided to just stay there and leave.
And the next day.
It’s the first special activity day of the year, and the day to leave for the Class A Dimensional Terminal where the teenage family reunion is held.
