12. innocence revealed

when i was thinking like that

Seong Hyun-wook quickly walked towards me.

As if to show off his big size, he stretched out his lats and inflated his body, stuffed his hands into his pockets and looked down at me.

“Lee Hyeon-seung, you trash criminal bastard, why the hell did you come here? What the f*ck are the guards doing here? A suspended guy can come in and out as he pleases, but he doesn’t even control it?”

Jeong Eun-seo looked at Seong Hyun-wook and said with a disgusted expression.

“Who are you? Please cover your words. I won’t let you go if you continue to show such a low attitude.”

Seong Hyun-wook laughed at the sound he heard next to him.

“I said the right thing, but why is there a stern person next to me? What? Won’t you let it go?

Seong Hyun-wook glanced at Jung Eun-seo, and then smiled and talked.

“Woah, you have a dirty personality, but you have a very pretty face. Hey. Hyunseung Lee, did you hang around with a girl while you were suspended? This girl has a good taste, she likes stalkers like you.”

Then Jeong Eun-seo glared at Seong Hyun-wook with a disgusted expression and muttered.

“A wormy bastard. Don’t make me regret it.”

As she tried to use magic, Lee Hyunseung stopped her. Then, he asked Seong Hyun-wook.

“You don’t know who this is?”

“Yeah? What the f*ck do I know.”

Hyunseung Lee thought to himself.

‘You don’t know Theor’s guild leader’s daughter, you idiot. Since I’m only sucking on Artemis’ asshole, I have no idea how other guilds work or what kind of members they have.’

Before long, Hyunseung Lee asked for forgiveness from Jinseok Nam, who was wearing a brown bowler hat next to him.

“I’m sorry. You came a long way, but I showed you an ugly side.”

“No. I don’t care because you didn’t do anything wrong.”

Seong Hyun-wook, who was listening to their conversation, jumped up and shouted.

“Are these crazy bastards ignoring people in front of them? Are they out of their minds?

Lee Hyun-seung glared at him and replied.

“Don’t keep calling me a criminal. I’m not a criminal.”

“Hah? You’re not a criminal? I don’t think that’s what a stalker voyeur would say.”

“Think whatever you want, they say you can see as much as you know. I’m here to prove my innocence. So get off, you’ll beat me to death later.”

-Kidduck

Seong Hyun-wook gritted his teeth and shouted at Lee Hyun-seung’s confident reaction.

“f*ck… What are you so proud of? Are you out of your mind? I’m Seong Hyun-wook, Seong Hyun-wook. A non-awakened bastard like you can’t be treated carelessly!”

Sung Hyun-wook doesn’t know yet. The fact that Lee Hyeon-seung has awakened to a legendary job.

Before long, Lee Hyeon-seung passed Sung Hyeon-wook and talked.

“It’s not worth responding to. I’m going to the chancellor’s office and prove my innocence. After that, whether you do the same or not, it’s up to you.”

Sung Hyun-wook bent his neck back and forth and laughed.

“Oh yeah? Do you think there’s something great? I’ll install the board, so try it well.”

After that, Seong Hyun-wook frantically wandered around the class and started gathering all the people.

“Hey, everyone gather around. That scumbag Lee Hyun-seung says he is innocent. Come and see.”

A stalker and a voyeur insisted on his innocence, calling Lee Hyun-seung like trash and calling people together.

Thanks to Seong Hyun-wook’s chaos, countless people gathered around the president’s office in an instant.

Seong Hyun-wook looked at Lee Hyun-seung among the crowd and quietly whispered.

“I don’t know what evidence you brought, but your innocence will not be proven. Originally, you were just going to let it pass? I don’t know if you have any great proof of your innocence.”

Soon after, Yoo Hee-yeon, who was far away, also came to the scene.

Yoo Hee-yeon looked at me and strongly distorted her expression. she told me

“What is the reason you are doing this? The evidence is already in your drawer. I’ve always felt the way you looked at me with a dirty expression. Up until now, I had only looked at them a few times and let it go, but I couldn’t stand the voyeurism, so I was going to report it and end it with a suspension, but you’re saying you’re going to come out like this brazenly until the end?”

I suppressed my rising anger as much as possible and spoke rationally. There are a lot of people watching now.

“It is true that a cell phone with voyeurized pictures was found in my drawer. However, there is no proof that the cell phone is mine. It is true that the disposition I received while I have not yet properly identified it is extremely unfair. Where do you get things done like this? Where is the case where the punishment is given without even checking the proper evidence?”

Yoo Hee-yeon sighed and said.

“evidence? Why do you need that? Your phone is already out of your drawer, and I think you’re the culprit, do you need more than that?”

“You’ve been saying the same thing since before, didn’t you think that someone else might have put that cell phone in there? Have you ever thought that someone did that to frame me?”

“Puhahahahaha”

Yoo Hee-yeon laughed and replied.

“Are you anything? Are you going to be a spy hidden by the state? Or are you a secret agent or something? Are you saying that someone is trying to frame a non-awakened, incompetent person? Do you know that is self-conscious?”

When I saw him constantly attacking me with respectful words, I thought it was too much to persuade him with words.

‘Stupid b*tch.’

So I stopped talking and knocked on the door of the president’s office.

-Thump thump thump-!

Before long, the door to the president’s office opened.

“Why is it so noisy…”

Choi Iseul was about to say something, but when Lee Hyunseung’s eyes met, he averted his eyes without realizing it.

she thought to herself.

‘Student Hyunseung?… Why is Hyunseung here…? The suspension period isn’t over yet…?’

As if to answer her question, Hyunseung Lee proudly demanded his rights.

“Mr. President, I believe that my suspension is unjust. So, I file an appeal. The appeal method is ‘Appraisal’. I will appraise my mobile phone, which is the only piece of evidence, and prove my innocence through it. Please allow us to use the evidence.”

Currently, the mobile phone containing evidence of the voyeur is stored in the Broad Academy vault. Opening and closing the safe is her only authority, which only the president can open. That’s why it was a very important part whether the president accepted the objection or not.

If, here, the president starts to argue that evidence cannot be taken out, or if he says that he cannot overturn an already decided matter, he proves his innocence and becomes unable to do anything.

Lee Hyun-seung knew this too. That’s why he pushed Choi Isul hard.

“Sir, I have been seeing you for months. The President’s handling of this matter was strangely emotional and partial, and I won’t say anything about not even going through a proper emotion. There are very few wizards who can use emotional magic, so you can’t hire them just because you have money. I think the academy has its own circumstances. But do you really think it was justified in suspending me before the proper results came out?”

“…”

“It is normal to think that it is not justified. Isn’t your educational policy to help those in need and teach those who want to learn? I don’t know why, but you’re acting against the president’s educational policy. Why the hell are you making me feel so unfair? I just had a desire to learn. It means that he was just a person who loved learning more than anyone else. If you, as a true educator, have any conscience left, please allow me to use the evidence.”

Lee Hyeon-seung was talking back, but his words were touching the essential part.

[Why did you do that? Did he even succumb to external pressure?]

At the words of Lee Hyeon-seung, who seemed to be saying that, President Choi I-seul. She bowed her head. Lee Hyun-seung looked at it and thought.

‘Here is the road. Choi Yi-seul is originally good-hearted and has a personality that does not reject students who are passionate about their studies. It’s obvious why she did this. There must have been external pressure from the Artemis Guild. Of course, that’s not my job. The important thing now is to get her permission to get the evidence out of the safe.’

“President. Make your decision. If you don’t approve the use of evidence, I’ll just drop out of here. And I will never walk the path of learning again. I will live my whole life mad with resentment. It might even be a heinous criminal. If there’s one thing you should know, no matter what happens, it’s because of you. If I don’t get the chance now, the only way to prove my innocence is to disappear.”

– Hard…

– male voice male voice

Class A students shouted in horror.

“Wow, look at what he’s talking about… he’s serious…”

“It’s crazy… Does that habit make sense to the president?”

People around me started to get upset. Choi Iseul spoke softly.

“Student Hyunseung Lee’s objection is considered legitimate. Use of evidence is permitted. The range of use is limited to emotional magic, and emotional magic must be performed in front of everyone.”

Lee Hyeon-seung quickly replied, wondering if she would change her mind.

“I brought a wizard who can use emotion magic. There are enough witnesses with the students gathered right now, so I’ll perform appraisal magic right here.”

When President Choi Isul nodded, Yoo Hee-yeon shouted.

“President! What are you doing?! You want to give this criminal bastard another chance? Can you take responsibility for your remarks now? Will you take responsibility if the evidence is taken out and lost or damaged? why! Why are you giving me a chance to be called when the facts of the crime are obvious!”

Choi Iseul closed his eyes and drew mana into his hand.

– Huung

As she turned her hand in a circle, a thick mana aura floated in the air.

Before long, a mobile phone with a mana barrier came down from the air.

Yoo Hee-yeon frantically glared at the president and muttered as she approached her.

“President Choi Isul, I will not forget your decision. You will be held accountable for what you have done now. Even so, the Artemis Guild will consider your judgment extremely regrettable.”

The moment she says something.

-Hwaaagh-!

In an instant, the hall began to lighten up.

Nam Jin-seok used emotion magic.

-gulp

Hyunseung Lee stared blankly at the scene. Soon after, the shimmering blue light disappeared like a lie.

Nam Jin-seok touched the bowler hat he was wearing and announced it to everyone.

“Lee Hyun-seung’s fingerprints were not found on his cell phone. Also, not even Lee Hyeon-seung’s mana traces were found. What does exist are Yoo Hee-yeon’s fingerprints and mana traces, Sung Hyeon-wook’s fingerprints and mana traces, and two mysterious mana traces that no longer feel the energy of survival.”

If it were the mana scars that did not feel the energy of survival, it would be the mana scars of the little ones from the Hilleon group they met in the labyrinth.

Lee Hyeon-seung asked Nam Jin-seok a question with a spirited expression.

“I heard you well. Summarizing the wizard’s opinion, is it true that I never touched that phone?”

“yes. you’re right. Hyunseung Lee has never touched this cell phone. I guarantee it on my mage honor.”

-Tadadadadat-!

At that moment, Seong Hyun-wook jumped out from behind and shouted.

“f*ck! Don’t bullsh*t! what? Didn’t Lee Hyunseung’s fingerprints and mana marks come out? Didn’t the fingerprints just get erased, and the mana scars didn’t remain because he was a non-awakened bastard?”

At Seong Hyun-wook’s rude attitude, Nam Jin-seok crumpled his expression. However, I answered as politely as possible.

“Minimal amounts of mana exist even in non-awakened people. Even for newborns. So if you touch an object, you can’t erase the mana mark even if you don’t know the fingerprint. The fact that no mana was found here is proof that Hyunseung Lee never touched anything.”

Seong Hyun-wook looked at Nam Jin-seok and shouted out loud.

“Isn’t this kind of swindler talking bullsh*t after taking money? What is that minuscule amount of manahyeon, and who are you, and by what right do you judge and guarantee it? How do you know if you are lying to Lee Hyun-seung for money?”

-Koo-gu-gu-gu-!

In an instant, the atmosphere in the hall began to change.

A mad mana swirled around Nam Jin-seok.

-Sueug

Nam Jin-seok said to Seong Hyun-wook, taking off his hat with his hand, with a clearly distorted expression.

“I am Nam Jin-seok, appraiser directly under the Magic Tower. fraud? bribe?”

Seong Hyun-wook would not have known, that the wizard Lee Hyun-seung brought, who he thought was a non-awakened person, was an appraisal wizard directly under the Mage Tower.

His expression, which had been stern, changed to that of killing someone before he knew it. He spoke to Seong Hyeon-wook in a very creepy voice.

“Are you insulting the authority of the Mage Tower?”
