Chapter 95

I’m going home with Jeong Hanna.

I glanced at her.

She was currently memorizing her words with her vocabulary book.

I’ve never seen her waste a moment of her time.

I told Jeonghanna.

“About this contest.”

Then her gaze turned to me from the word book.

“Yes. What is this contest?”

“Why did you ask to come with me?”

I got a call from ‘Jeong Hanna’ this morning.

Let’s go to the math competition together.

Isn’t there a truck of students who would say let’s do it together?

But I didn’t quite understand why he asked to do it with me.

“Ah. That?”

Jeonghanna nodded her head and said.

“There’s just no particular reason. You helped me, so I’ll help you.”

“Huh?”

Then Jeonghanna put her hand into her book bag.

Then she took out an orb that glowed brightly.

From noble mtl dot com

“This is what you sent me. I was able to finish it very quickly thanks to you.”

Jeonghanna said with a grin.

“Ah. I see.”

However, I don’t understand well with just that.

No matter how much Jeong Hannah felt grateful to me, due to her personality, she is not the type to propose a team to anyone first.

“…Really that’s all?”

I said with a puzzled expression.

“…”

He looked at me for a while without saying a word.

Then she opened her mouth.

“..Really honest?”

“Uh.”

“I want to lift a little of the heavy burden you are carrying.”

Jeong Hanna said with a very serious expression.

“I heard the story from the president. How heavy a burden rests on your shoulders. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that the fortunes of mankind depend on every single step you take.”

“….”

“I’ve been thinking about how much pressure it would be. It seemed like it would be really hard. If I did, I think I would have gone crazy.”

“…”

“That’s why I wanted to ease some of the pressure even in this ‘math competition’. I want to help, but it seems like this is the only thing I can do right now.”

“What about lifting the burden?”

“I will solve all the difficult problems in the math contest, so you will solve all the easy problems.”

“Huh?”

“Why? No?”

She said, tilting her head.

There are a total of 10 questions in the math contest.

However, the difficulty level is not the same for each problem.

Questions 1 through 5 consist of easy questions.

In addition, #5 to #10 consist of difficult problems.

That difficult problem is made up of problems that are so difficult that you can’t even touch them.

‘There are 5 problems to be solved per student.’

It is made up of two people, but the maximum number of problems that one person can solve is up to five.

So, in order to get a perfect score, both of them must solve 10 problems together.

‘An easy problem is not an easy problem for me’

Of course, that easy problem is an easy problem for the cadets of ‘Elpon’ Academy, but it is not an easy problem for me.

I’m sure I can’t even touch it.

“The questions up to number 5 are very easy. If Doyoon is your level, can’t you solve everything in just 5 minutes?”

She said, nodding her head.

“Up to number 5, here at Elphon Academy, it is composed to the extent that even the kids with the lowest grades in the written test can solve it, so if Doyoon has a brain like yours, you can just solve it.”

“…”

I looked at her silently.

“So, don’t feel pressured in this test. I will solve all the difficult problems, so you only have to solve the easy ones.”

“…”

“I wanted to lift even a little of your burden like this.”

“Ah..”

I opened my mouth and let out a sigh.

“How is it? Thank you.”

She said with a grin.

I really appreciate that intention, but…

“I don’t think you need to do that…”

“Huh?”

She said with a startled look on her face.

“That… I think it would be right for me to solve difficult problems.”

“…What?”

She said with a look on her face as if she couldn’t believe what I just said.

“I think it would be appropriate for me to solve the difficult problems and for you to solve the easy ones.”

“Are you serious?”

“Uh. I think it would be right for me to solve difficult problems. Hannah, can you solve an easy problem for me?”

“…Why?”

She had a serious expression on her face.

Looks like he’s thinking about something.

She said, then she frowned.

“What? Am I not trustworthy?”

“…”

It’s only natural that she wouldn’t understand.

She said she would solve the difficult problem herself, but I did it every time.

However, there is something she is firmly mistaken for.

Thinking that if you can solve difficult problems, you can also solve easy ones.

In general, that’s right.

But not for me.

I can’t solve easy problems, but I can solve difficult problems right away.

Perhaps it will be the same in this math contest.

“Nothing like that, I just thought it would be fun to solve difficult problems.”

I said with a shy smile.

I don’t think I need to explain this.

I can’t believe it even if I explain it.

“No matter how hard it is, I have never missed first place in writing… Are you feeling a bit sad?”

She said pouting her lips.

“It’s not because I don’t trust you, Hannah… there is a good reason for that.”

“…”

As expected, Jeonghanna glared at me as if she didn’t believe me.

Then she sighed and said.

“Yes. What do you know than that.”

Jeonghanna looked behind her.

Wam-

Soon after, someone turned her head and started looking at the distant mountain.

It was Jeong Ha-yeon’s friend, Kim Min-seo.

“Didn’t he seem to be following us from earlier? The traffic lines keep overlapping.”

“A. It must be a coincidence.”

“What. I guess so. More than that, Do-yoon, where are you going?”

“Huh?”

“If you don’t have anywhere else to go, I will teach you how to study for the contest. I heard you solve difficult problems.”

“Ah… I guess I’ll have to do that later.”

“Huh? Is there anything more important than the contest right now?”

“There is someone I really need to meet. I have an appointment today.”

“Really? Then what can you do?”

Jeong Hanna waved her hand at me and walked to her bus stop.

I glanced back.

After Hanna Jeong and I broke up, Min Seo Kim is no longer following us.

Why did Ash suddenly follow you?

I went out to the main street and caught a taxi.

Tack-

I opened the door and went inside.

“Where should I take you?”

A taxi driver’s voice is heard.

“Please go to the Hunter Association Headquarters.”

Nothing else, I have a very important appointment today.

When I asked ‘Jeong Hae-soo’ for a favor, he told me to come to the Hunter Association headquarters today.

Kikkik-

Soon after, the taxi arrived in front of the Hunter Association headquarters.

And in front of the building was a tall man wearing a suit.

He and I met eyes.

Then he smiled and then approached me.

“Is Doyun here?”

“Yes.”

He was Jeong Hae-soo, Jeong Ha-yeon’s older brother.

“Uh. Would you like to come inside?”

“Yes.”

I followed him into the Hunter Association.

As I went inside, countless eyes were focused on me.

“The people gathered now are the elite of our Hunter Association.”

“You mean that?”

“Yes. These are the hunters who will enter the ‘Suri Island’ dungeon together this time. All the people gathered here are reliable enough that I can trust and entrust my back.”

Jeong Hae-soo grabbed my shoulder by the chin and whispered in my ear.

“In my heart, I really want Doyoon to take you to the ‘Suri Island’ dungeon, right? I’m Do-yoon, you’re quite interesting.”

“…”

“By the way, I was going to do that, but the resistance from the existing staff was too strong. You can’t bring academy cadets into this dungeon.”

“…”

“So, Do-yoon, I think you need to be recognized by the people over there. How confident are you?”

Jeong Hae-soo said with a grin.

I looked ahead.

Not all of them look at me so kindly.

No, apart from being ugly, he is looking at me with a disapproving expression.

I’m sure you’re thinking of me as the number 1 nuisance who tries to get involved in a dungeon without even knowing the topic.

As I stood still, the man who was sitting in the seat of honor stood up.

Then everyone’s eyes began to follow the man.

I think he is probably the next highest ranking person after Jung Hae-soo.

He looked at Jeong Hae-soo and said.

“Senior Hae Soo. That’s why the ‘Hunter Association’ said to get rid of the apprentice system that takes academy students when raiding dungeons. Because of that, they see it as an easy place for students to tour dungeons. A dungeon is literally a jungle.”

“..”

“In fact, you don’t even know how hard the hunters in there are to protect themselves. Uhh-“

He said with a deep sigh.

He walked toward me, then stood tall in front of me.

Then he started looking at me.

“First of all, Hae-soo recommended it, so I’m going to take a test, but if I don’t feel like it even slightly, I’ll cut it right away. This dungeon is not an easy dungeon where the apprentices can mess around.”

“….”

“How are you not complaining?”

I glanced to the side.

I don’t think ‘Jeong Hae-soo’ is expecting anything from me either.

Jeong Hae-soo doesn’t seem to want to take me with him.

I just contacted you, so I’m just giving you a chance.

It doesn’t seem like he’s thinking that he’ll be able to pass the test.

But I don’t really care right now.

Because right now I’m on the cooldown of ‘Sword Master’s Swordsmanship’.

With this, he is confident that he can pass any test.

“Yes. Sure.”

I said with a confident expression on my face.

Then he smiled and said.

“Yes. Beating is good. I hope my skills are at that level.”
