Chapter 409
Gaon Academy has three auditoriums used for each grade and a main auditorium used only for very large annual events. It was larger than the three other auditoriums combined, but with all grades lined up, there were no empty seats.
However, no one wondered why they had gathered in the auditorium. There was only one incident at Gaon Academy that could attract this many people.
“This is Park Min-ah, a student council officer. Student president Hayoon Shin suddenly decided to drop out… … . “I believe everyone is aware that student council activities have been disrupted.”
Minah Park recited the set script in a calm and monotonous voice.
“Actually, if there had been a vice president, there would have been no need to proceed with the election in such a hurry. Vice Chairman Lee Hyuk also made the same choice… … . “We will hold an emergency election.”
Park Min-ah, who recited only the main points of the script in a machine-like tone, floated five holograms in the main auditorium.
“The first candidate is Placi Domingo from second year S class. What’s special is that we have a record of winning the integrated academy sparring held in Spain.”
At these static events, no one chants or cheers the students’ names. The only way to confirm the popularity of the students was through the sound of applause that echoed through the auditorium.
If you calculate it that way, Domingo’s popularity is at an average level. It was not a dark horse in this presidential election.
“The second candidate is Seong Seok-jae from class 2 A. What’s special is that I am the class president of Class A.”
Rather, the strong candidate was Seong Seok-je, who was number seven and also the class president of class A. He is the closest person to the next student council president if not Shin Hayun and Lee Hyuk.
Clap clap clap clap!
Some of the first-year students were intimidated by the loud applause from not only Class A but also the entire second-year class, shouting at them to leave the auditorium.
“Well, as expected… … “Is Seong Seok-je the next student council president?”
“It’s hard for first graders anyway. Senior Hayun was a unique case. I don’t think the 3rd graders who are graduating soon will follow suit… … .”
Ha-yoon Shin actually took over the student council president in his first year and devoted himself to his work as student council president from his second year onward. But that was a very unusual case. In most cases, student council presidents were chosen from second-year students who would soon become third-year students.
“Are first graders even going to participate?”
“I don’t know about Yoosung… … .”
“yes. But Yoosung is not interested in the position of student council president. “He didn’t even participate in the election.”
Of course, the story is different if he makes a huge performance abroad like Shin Yu-seong, but there was no such surprise. Because Shin Yu-seong was already busy with other activities, she did not run for the position of student president.
“The third candidate is Park Soo-hyun from class 1 A. What’s special is that I am the vice president of Class A.”
In the end, it was Class A’s Park Soo-hyun who stepped forward.
Because he gets things done quickly, has many followers, and is famous for being smart, the applause was quite loud.
“Of course it doesn’t work for second graders. “Most seniors don’t even applaud.”
As Renia spoke, scanning the reactions of those around her, Lee Si-woo narrowed his eyes as if it was obvious.
“What a territorial thing. “Because there are not only people who will look favorably on a first-year student becoming student council president.”
In this election, it seemed difficult to select the next candidate among the first year students unless there was a great performance or something special.
“The fourth candidate is Lee Chae-hyeon from class 1, S. What is special is that there are students who have joined the student council since admission.”
Class S’s Lee Chae-hyeon also performed quite well compared to other students, but her reaction was very disappointing. No, maybe it was natural. Compared to his fighting power, Lee Chae-hyun could not defeat Seong Seok-je, and he did not have the unique charisma to overwhelm the students like Seong Seok-je. What you need to beat Seong Seok-je is network and power that goes beyond that.
“In this situation, I am confirmed as candidate number 2.”
“Are you saying that in a cave without a tiger, the fox is king? “The next president is Seong Seok-je, who couldn’t even say a word to Shin Ha-yoon.”
“The previous president and vice president were better than Seong Seok-je in every way.”
Shin Ha-yoon, the student council president, and Vice President Lee Hyeok had it, but the first-year students running in the current election are not ready for it yet.
“And the last candidate… … .”
Park Min-ah, who was just reciting the script without reacting, looked shocked at the unexpected participant. She deserved it, she did. The last participant was someone who was very far from the image of the student council president.
“Eh, Amy Rose from class 1 A. As for special things… … “We are enjoying great popularity through our broadcasting activities.”
Is it because some students didn’t know that Amy was running for student council president? The announcement was so shocking that there was silence in the auditorium for a moment.
But soon applause began to pour in with a different meaning. Some students applauded not because they recognized Amy as the next student council president, but because they simply liked Amy.
Buzz, buzz!
“Eh, it’s Amy!”
“He’s really busy. Is it okay if he takes on the position of student council president?”
“Who cares? “I know a lot of celebrities. Maybe they’ll bring me to an event?”
“That’s right~ I even let Seol-ah meet Shoichi!”
“No matter what, the student council president has been a bit… … With an image like that… … “Isn’t it far away?”
However, it is natural for students to doubt Amy’s capabilities. The position of student council president was not a simple popularity vote.
“then… … The student council president election will be decided by gathering the results of a total of four votes, including the student vote that will be held from now on.”
The vote for Gaon’s student council president was decided very carefully, as Park Min-ah said, as it is a position that will greatly affect the future of the hunter world.
“Oh, of course… … Professor voting in which Gaon’s current professors participate. Association voting in which hunters from the Hunter Association participate. “All citizen votes involving the population living in Academy City have been counted.”
Of course, as for the vote itself, 15% of the shares were held by current professors, 15% by association executives, and 15% by citizens, making up a total of 45%.
“The only thing taking place in the main auditorium today is the student vote, which has about 50% of the decision-making power.”
Considering that student voting had an influence of 55%, it was an insignificant amount of less than half.
“then… … Before voting, let’s hear the final aspirations of the students running for student president election.”
Students who participated in Park Min-ah’s call began to come out to the main auditorium one by one. In a blackout space behind a curtain, Minah Park faced her Amy.
“… … “What are you thinking?”
If the voice used in the announcement just now was emotionless, this is a very cold voice.
“Eh, yes?”
Minah Park sighed with a bit of disdain towards the embarrassed Amy.
“The presidential election is not your show or a place to joke around. “Did you really participate thinking you would be selected?”
Minah Park pointed out and attacked Amy among the participating students. She also had the heart to debilitate Amy psychologically by launching a mental attack on her.
“I’m serious.”
“We have to consider our position too, right? Would anyone trust and follow a clown? Our student council is not that easy. “Couldn’t you have brought your party leader with you?”
Minah Park launched an onslaught on Amy. Minah Park was a member of the student council who watched and learned under Shin Hayun. The momentum of the senior second-year students was so strong that the first-year students could not handle it.
However, Amy did not give in to her territoriality until then.
“No, you can. And I seriously have a school that I want to create.”
[If I become student council president… … .]
The voice of the fourth candidate, Lee Chae-hyeon, was heard from outside the curtain. Now it’s Amy’s turn.
“Even if others laugh at me and think it’s funny, there are things I want to change!”

Rather, Park Min-ah’s attack had the opposite effect. After strengthening her resolve, Amy walked out into the main auditorium.
“hmm… … .”
Amy climbed onto the stepping stones that someone had prepared in advance and looked around the main auditorium where many people had gathered. But there was no tension. If there were a lot of people in this Kajit auditorium, how many would there be?
Amy was a broadcaster. Rather than feeling nervous when people noticed her, she had a special talent for feeling uplifted.
“hello! “It’s Amy!”
Amy smiled brightly, showing off her fangs, and greeted me brightly, as if on air. Other students came down with her brief aspirations at best, but Amy was different from the very beginning of her story.
“It’s already been a year since I entered Gaon Academy. Soon after winter vacation, I will be a second year student… … “I can’t believe it!”
Amy was smart. She wasn’t just good at eating spicy food. Amy’s strength was not her thoroughness in doing things or her charisma; she was turning a subject at a disadvantage into a subject at her advantage.
“and… … At first, I couldn’t even imagine participating in the student council president election. “I felt like it wasn’t a position for me.”
Amy was a natural talent and storyteller. She knew how to create one huge flow with her characters and stories.
“but… … “As I went on many adventures with my friends and party members, I realized that there were stories that only I could tell!”
Park Min-ah, who was listening to the story, frowned. Interrupting in the student council president’s presentation was something a host should never do, but she asked a question.
“… … “What is the story that only you can tell?”
However, it was foolish to bet on Amy through ‘conversation’. There was no student who could beat Amy, who had established herself as a broadcaster, with her words.
“Can I ask you a question before that?”
Amy was a natural eloquent speaker.
Creating a flow of discussion during the presentation was actually an opportunity that made Amy stand out.
“… … “What is it?”
“Senior Park Min-ah, what did you learn during your one year at Gaon?”
“Gaon is a hunter academy. Of course, I learned my job as a hunter.”
Amy laughed at Park Min-ah’s answer. That was the smile of victory she gave when her opponent was caught in her web.
“I had a story I wanted to tell. The academy teaches you how to become a strong hunter… … “It doesn’t tell us what kind of heart a strong hunter has.”
Jumble-jump-
Someone walked out from the back of the auditorium. Even at Gaon Academy, he was a person of too high a position to attend events such as the student council president election in person.
“This is the heart that a strong hunter possesses… … . “That’s fun.”
The person who walked next to Amy in a neat suit was Kang Yu-chan, the president of the Hunter Association.
“Can you hear what that is?”
While most of the students froze with wide eyes, Amy nodded without any problem.
“At first, a strong hunter… … I thought it was a transcendent being. Do well in whatever you do, don’t be sad, don’t despair… … . “He is the kind of person who walks quietly!”
“Oh, I see… … Have you changed your mind now?”
“Yes, I think that no matter how strong a hunter is now, he cannot always be strong.”
Amy’s eloquence did not stop even when dealing with Kang Yu-chan.
“I think some days we may make mistakes, feel sad, and despair.”
“Hmm, so… … Wouldn’t it be like an ordinary person?”
As Kang Yu-chan approached, Park Min-ah took a step back. She herself was frozen by Kang Yu-chan’s intimidation and couldn’t even open her mouth, but Amy, who was standing across from her, seemed fine.
‘ah… … .’
Outside and inside
It was he who looked down on Amy. She thought that just because she was soft on the outside, she was weak on the inside. It was just her prejudice. As proof of that.
“I don’t think it’s any different. The important thing is how to overcome it… … . “I felt that.”
Amy was persuading Kang Yu-chan.
“It’s about overcoming… … “Is there a reason you thought that?”
“Yes, I saw some great colleagues. “These are strong hunters who ultimately overcame their own failures, sadness, and despair!”
Kang Yu-chan nodded with a meaningful smile as if he liked Amy’s story.
Now, did you think that the person in the story is not Kang Yu-chan? Amy said looking at her students.
“I am not the best-working, smartest, or strongest student council president, but… … . “I have something I want to say to everyone.”
The sight of Amy calmly continuing her presentation was not the Amy I had ever seen before.
“… … I want to change Gaon Academy with the things I have observed and the things I consider important. “I want to decide with you what is really important.”
It’s truly overwhelming.
After Amy finished her presentation, the students responded with such loud applause that the entire auditorium was gone.
“… … Well, then we will proceed with the vote.”
Park Min-ah, who was overwhelmed by the momentum, already knew who the next student council president would be even though the student votes had not been counted yet.
[Seong Seok-je, 1st place in association voting]
[7 out of 21 people, 33.3%]
[No. 1 in professor voting: Seong Seok-je]
[7 out of 14 people 50%]
Seong Seok-je was already ranked first in the association and professor voting, but other voting was a different story.
[Amy ranked 1st in citizens’ votes]
[520,000 votes, 97.5%]
The citizen vote that had already been counted had long since become an overwhelmingly popular vote with Amy’s fans participating, and the same was true for the most important student vote. In the main auditorium, both first and second graders were already chanting and chanting Amy’s name.
“I was really impressed! Amy!”
“Amy! cheer up!”
“You are the next student council president!”
Although he is a hunter, he defeated all the prominent candidates not with weapons or mana, but with his mouth and tongue.
