Episode 60 – Hidden Shadow (2)
“How much do you want?”
At Amseong’s words asking for a specific amount, Seo-jun was lost in thought for a moment.
And after long consideration, I paid 3 billion won.
“Such a madman…”
Then, the darkness distorted his expression in a stern manner.
No matter what, it was because 3 billion was too much.
And Seo-joon was well aware that the amount was excessive.
In fact, the role of the middle bridge was the end of the word child support.
Nevertheless, the reason why Seojun paid 3 billion was because he needed a lot of money to attend the lectures at the Transcendent Academy.
It’s just words, but there was a causal effect called ‘rearing’, so it should be applied to the Transcendent Academy.
Like this, the opportunity to get a lump sum applied to causality was not common.
So, the story I’m spouting from now on was nothing more than a plausible packaging of this fact.
“Honestly, isn’t it something only I can do? According to Amseongnim’s words, you must be the object the Jinrihoe keeps an eye on, and you must be a person whom the Jinrihoe cannot see.”
“It is, but…”
Then, the dark castle opened its mouth as if to refute something.
However, Seojun spat out the words with a rapid fire.
“furthermore! You must have a close relationship with Minyul. Think about it. Suddenly, a stranger came and your teacher gave it to you. If I give you a tip, will Min-yul say he’s good and take it? Or should I be suspicious?”
“That’s it…”
“Of course, you can just take it once. But twice. What are you going to do for the third time? Surely you’re not saying that you’re going to help me this once and finish it, right? Are you me? Is that also the one who saved Amseong-nim’s life?”
“that…”
The words of the ignorance began to grow more and more.
“Then shouldn’t there be a justification to persuade Minyul? Of course, there has to be some kind of friendship. But when you see Minyul, you know. A personality that doesn’t like to be tied down somewhere. If I let them go like this, I will be confined to the mountains and just training. What are you going to do then?”
“that…”
Then the words got shorter and shorter.
“And above all, I am taking risks. You said that if you go through me, you won’t see it as Amseongnim’s actions. But doesn’t that mean I see it as the result of my actions on the contrary? Then, as a result, won’t the Jinrihoe view me even more suspiciously?”
“……”
In the end, I had nothing to say, so I kept my mouth shut.
Then Amseong looked at Seo-joon with a tired expression.
Seo-joon looked at such a dark castle and spat out the last words.
“blast furnace! I think I should get about 3 billion.”
As soon as Seo-jun’s words finished, Amseong’s expression was like, ‘Well, there are all these guys.’ It was a look.
Like that, Amseong looked at Seo-jun for a long time.
“……I get it.”
He nodded slowly.
In the first place, Seo-jun’s words were not wrong, and it was because there was no reason to refute them.
No, actually, there were a few things to refute.
But I didn’t dare to argue.
The appearance of Seo-joon, who spits out words without stuttering or stuttering.
More than anything, what made the ignorance more boring was that the ignorance understood the concepts explained just a moment ago and unfolded that logic.
So, the refutation that the ignorance is thinking now could have been calculated.
Have you lost anything to the money?
Or did he sell his soul for money?
I was already having trouble with Jinrihoe, but I didn’t want to waste my energy.
There was no doubt that it would have been impossible without Seo-joon.
“Will 3 billion be enough?”
And in fact, 3 billion was not a very large amount to cancer.
Of course, for Seo-joon, and according to conventional wisdom, 3 billion was a huge amount.
However, even if you are an S-class hunter right now, the income you earn easily exceeds tens of billions.
However, Amseong goes beyond such an S-class hunter and is one of the five heroes representing Korea.
For Amseong, money was just a wad of paper that he took and used whenever he needed it.
‘If I had known it would be like this, I would have closed my eyes and screamed for 10 billion won.’
So Seo-joon thought about this for a moment, but quickly brushed it off.
No matter how ignorant it was, 10 billion was unreasonable, but honestly, even 3 billion was a lot of ignorance.
To be precise, it must mean that Amseong thinks of Minyul that much.
“I will pay for your help whenever I need it. Could it be… you didn’t mean to ask for 3 billion every month?”
“Oh, no. no way I am not so careless.”
Darkness nodded slowly.
and.
“Oh. Are you taking care of all sorts of tax and law-related matters?”
“…I guess your conscience is the real state of selflessness.”
Amseong shook his head again as if he was fed up with Seo-jun’s words that immediately followed.
“It will be deposited in the name of the association. The association will take care of the small things, so there won’t be any big problems with you using it.”
Then, the darkness turned its back as if to leave.
Seojun looked at the back of the dark castle and asked.
“Can I tell Minyul about Amseong?”
“It doesn’t matter. As I said, the Jinrihoe cannot see you. Just tell him not to mention my identity carelessly.”
And with that said.

slip.
The ignorance disappeared in an instant, as if it melted into the background.
#
Seo-joon is left alone after the cancer has left.
Seo-joon quietly repeated what Amseong said.
“The Jinrihoe is watching me…”
Cancer said he did not know the reason.
Nevertheless, he was certain that Jinrihoe was keeping an eye on Seo-jun.
In addition, Amseong said that Jinrihoe is not all known.
The Great Monster, Beserk, did not fall.
There is something hidden about the reason why the apostle of chastity is vacant.
Above all, this 10-star dungeon break was the work of Jinrihoe.
The image of Jinrihoe that Seo-joon knew… So, in light of the image of Jinrihoe that people knew, they were all unbelievable facts.
“hmm···”
That’s why Seo-joon didn’t really believe Amseong’s words.
But even so, I didn’t think that the ignorance was lying.
If it is really a lie, it means that all of this was made up to deceive Seo Jun Hana.
However, Seojun was not even a professional hunter, he was just a student.
What is it that Amseong regrets about, grabbing one of the students and doing such a troublesome thing?
In addition, considering the suspiciousness Seo-joon felt when he met Calia, Amseong’s words should be considered true.
“Jinrihoe…”
That’s why Seo-joon had no choice but to doubt the Jinrihoe.
Why is Jinrihoe keeping an eye on Seo-joon?
Above all, what does it mean to not be able to see Seo-joon?
And what does that have to do with the fact that there is no member information of Seo Jun at the transcendent academy?
“……”
Seojun shook his head after thinking for a long time.
It was because it was not something that could be solved by worrying about it right now.
“The important thing now is that we received 3 billion won.”
When Seo-joon thought of the soon-to-be 3 billion won, laughter leaked out without his knowledge.
“I never thought I’d be able to take the next lecture so quickly…”
After purchasing the free pass, the remaining money for Seo-joon was 1.5 billion.
Of course, 1 billion has not yet been deposited, but it was money that will be deposited soon.
And the lectures recommended by the mentors were 2 billion won and 2.5 billion won, respectively.
With the remaining 1.5 billion, he couldn’t even listen to a single lecture, so Seo-joon originally planned to buy a sub-weapon at the transcendent store.
But this was a different story.
If you receive 3 billion from cancer, it’s only 4.5 billion.
I was able to listen to two lectures at the same time, not just one.
Of course, I thought of this and guessed at 3 billion, but anyway.
“Um… but I still want to buy a sidearm.”
Seo-joon took out his smartphone and accessed the transcendent shop.
And the price of the confirmed equipment is none other than 500 million.
“Hey. How did this guy’s academy work? Even with this much money, he can’t do everything he wants.”
Seojun shook his head.
And the moment I was trying to think about how to spend the money.
jump.
“I’m here!”
Suddenly, the door to Dream Academy opened and Minyul’s voice was heard.
And Min-yul looked around, found Seo-joon, and began to stride.
“Are you the only one? Who is that pretty sister?”
“Pretty sister?”
Seo-joon was able to quickly realize that it was a word referring to Seo-yoon.
And it’s not because I’m not particularly selfish, it just seemed like an honest expression of what it looked like.
Seo-joon said with a smile at Min-yul’s easy-to-predict personality.
“Seoyun-ssi is at her parents’ house now. I went to tell the swordsman to look at your secret level. ”
“I see. Then can we go right now?”
“no.”
Min-yul tilted his head at Seo-joon’s determined words and asked.
“why? Didn’t you just go to Geomseong-nim’s?”
“I was originally going to do that. It is no longer necessary.”
“What do you mean?”
Seeing Min-yul still unable to understand Seo-joon’s words, Seo-joon explained the incident he had just met with Amseong.
Of course, things related to Jinrihoe.
Also, the reason why Amsung couldn’t meet Minyul was appropriately dramatized and told.
Of course, receiving child support was not even mentioned.
The story of Seo-joon, which is neither too short nor too long, is over.
“My teacher…was a dark star…”
Minyul had a dazed expression on his face as if he was quite shocked.
For a moment, Seo-joon wondered if it was such a surprise, but when he thought about it, there was nothing strange about being startled.
Hunter Meal, Ale, and Gaon are called the three major academies in Korea.
These three academy instructors were former A-class or S-class hunters.
However, the darkness is 5 heroes who are called S-class above S-class.
Considering the tens of billions of annual salaries that academy star instructors receive, the teachings of cancer were not something that could be obtained even with tens of millions of dollars.
So, in fact, even if it was simple, it had enormous value.
‘What am I? Money is better.’
Of course, it was useless to Seo-jun, who was listening to the lectures of the transcendentalists.
That’s why I thought about selling my money, but it was not a very good choice to receive unnecessary attention.
Seo-joon said to Min-yul, who was still making a blank expression.
“Amseong-nim left right away because of an urgent matter. Instead, he asked me to deliver this.”
Seo-joon handed over the secret wages he received from Am-seong to Min-yul.
Min-yul accepted the secrets without hesitation.
“This···”
And Minyul showed a dazed expression again.
But somehow, this time, the subject looked different.
“Why… are you giving this to me?”
Sure enough, Minyul asked Seojun in a trembling voice.
Seojun replied as if he was talking nonsense.
“Did you say that the god of darkness asked you to pass it on?”
“Simply because of that…?”
“What are you talking about?”
Seo-joon couldn’t understand what Min-yul was saying.
“Honestly… you could have hidden it.”
However, it wasn’t until after Min-yul’s words that Seo-joon was able to understand what Min-yul was talking about.
It was the question of why he gave the secret money to himself instead of stealing it.
Well, because the secret level of the dark castle was such a huge value.
But to Seo-joon, it was just a boring book that was of no use to anyone.
Even if it was useful in the first place, I wouldn’t have stolen it like this.
Seojun shook his head and opened his mouth.
“that···”
However, Seo-joon could not speak until the end.
Because I really didn’t know what to say.
It seems like ignoring the ignorance to say that it’s useless to you.
However, he couldn’t reveal anything about the Transcendent Academy.
“That’s not right.”
So Seo-joon just spat it out.
But for some reason, it seemed that those words caused a greater misunderstanding.
“……I’ve made up my mind.”
When Seo-joon tilted his head, Min-yul immediately continued.
“I want to go to the academy here with you.”
“huh?”
Seojun was embarrassed for a moment.
“I’m going to attend Dream Academy from today. Will you allow me?”
But whether or not he knew Seo-jun’s feelings, Min-yul continued talking.
Of course, what Seo-jun did was not an easy one.
But it wasn’t enough to show that kind of reaction.
Have you ever been hit in the back of the head by any of these academies before?
Seojun said to Minyul.
“You say you don’t like being confined somewhere. And it’s not something I can decide if I allow it and leave it alone…”
Then suddenly, a thought came to Seo-joon, and he hurriedly shut his mouth.
In fact, Minyul was so talented that he received a scholarship from Hunter Mill or Gaon.
Even so, the reason I didn’t go there was because of the free-spirited Minyul style.
Minyul did not need an instructor to teach.
So even if I entered Dream Academy, I didn’t have to do anything.
If I just leave it alone, I will grow on my own in my own way with the secret that cancer often gives me.
In a way, just like Seojun, it was just a matter of belonging.
In fact, leaving everything else behind.
If Seo-joon took Min-yul with him, wouldn’t it be more likely that he would continue to extort money from Am-seong?
Seo-joon finished thinking this far.
‘Isn’t that bad?’
For a moment, Minyul looked like the goose that lays golden eggs.
#
In the end, Seo-joon agreed to Min-yul attending Dream Academy.
Of course, Seoyoon, the director of Dream Academy, had to make the final decision, but Seoyoon didn’t think Seoyoon would refuse.
And sure enough.
“I don’t care. To be honest, that’s something I’d welcome.”
Seoyoon also did not reject Minyul’s admission.
Of course, Seo-jun also told Seo-yoon about the encounter with the dark castle.
In addition, he briefly explained what Amseong thought of Minyul.
Seoyoon was surprised by that fact for a while.
Seoyoon quickly agreed as to how much he had guessed.
“Hmm… If this is the case, I guess I can participate in competitions where I compete as a team.”
“A team?”
After Seoyoon’s words, Seojun asked.
Then Seoyoon nodded and continued talking.
“yes. There is a competition where students from the same academy participate. The larger the number of participants, the greater the prize money. If Seo-Jun and Min-Yul join forces… they’ll sweep away all the championships, right?”
…As expected, Min-yul was the goose that laid golden eggs.
After everything was finished, another 3 days passed.
Min-yul hadn’t entered the academy yet, but from what I heard, it seemed like he was trying to find a decent house in the Seoul area.
And Seo-joon was able to receive 1 billion won in prize money from winning the event match and 3 billion won in child support from Amseong.
I thought it would take at least a week, but it was done fairly quickly, and it was a great thing for Seo-joon.
Seo-joon, who had accumulated a total of 4.5 billion in that way, decided to listen to two lectures at the same time after thinking about it.
It was the conclusion that it was right to spend the money in a large amount anyway.
Seojun immediately connected to the transcendent academy.
『[If you do this exercise, anyone can achieve 3 to 500 tons. (Instructor: Hercules)]』
『[The first step toward transcendence is from footsteps. (Instructor: Sambong Jang)]』
<If you complete this lecture, you will learn ‘Divine Power [S]’.>
<After completing this lecture, you will learn ‘Cheongsangje(天上梯) – Neunggongheodo(凌空虛道)[S]’.>
Seojun then pressed the take button for both lectures.
Hold on.
Hold on.
With two finger pointing, the money of 4.5 billion disappeared in an instant.
“……Is this money or what.”
Seo-joon felt a sense of emptiness as if he was far away from a space in the universe.
That would be the case, because the reality was that Seo-joon was living in a single room while spending 4.5 billion won.
“Too, let’s think of it as an investment…”
Seo-joon tried to hold on to his trembling hand.
As a result, the lectures that Seojun is currently listening to are Sakyamuni, Merlin, Hercules, and Jang Sam-bong.
“The matchup is incredible.”
Seo-joon pressed the Hercules lecture first with a trembling heart along with a laugh that leaked out.
“excuse me···”
No, I tried to press it.
‘huh?’
At the sudden voice, Seo-jun pressed the stop button for the lecture with a puzzled feeling.
The voice was definitely that of a woman, but it wasn’t Seoyoon’s voice.
“I heard that there is an older brother here at the academy…”
Hearing the voice that followed, Seo-joon turned around.
Then, a woman with an elegant atmosphere was standing there, but why?
Seojun felt quite familiar.
Seo-joon chewed on the memory.
And after a while, I was able to figure out the identity.
“…Suyeon?”
She was none other than Mancheol’s daughter, Seok Suyeon.
