28 – That was it (9)

Since Han Min-ha kept not answering the phone, I eventually gave up talking to her and went to the next lecture.

Then, at the end of the day, Han Min-ha called me.

[Sorry, professor… I called but didn’t answer…]

“It’s okay. You must have been busy. Can I talk to you for a minute?”

Then, Han Min-ha showed a slight hesitation.

[Ah… now…? uh…]

“Are you having any problems? Looking at the timetable, it looks like today’s lecture is over.”

Han Min-ha, who hesitated for a while, answered right away.

[I will go to the lab now.]

“like.”

Hmm. What’s going on?

Obviously, the timetable is empty.

He doesn’t have any kind of friendship, so he should be in the dormitory right away. Why is he so embarrassed when we talk about it?

Well… there must be something that only I do alone at that age.

I went back to the lab while organizing things to talk to Han Min-ha.

* * * * *

Han Min-ha hung up the phone and estimated the time when Yoo Hee-won’s class lecture was over.

Maybe until then, I can go to the professor’s lab to have an interview and come back…

Interviews between advisors and students are very common and there is nothing unusual about them.

However, for some reason, he thought that Han Min-ha shouldn’t let Yu Hee-won find out that he and the professor were meeting separately.

Until now, the three of them had been meeting, and Yoo Hee-won had no major complaints about it.

I don’t know how far the professors know, but Yoo Hee-won’s personality is famous among his classmates.

It is very unusual that Yoo Hee-won does not at least try to kick out Han Min-ha.

Knowing that, Han Min-ha plans to go to the lab without anyone knowing.

Han Min-ha hurriedly walked down the hallway and ran into a classmate coming out of the bathroom.

“Where are you going?”

She is a female student named Song Do-yoon, in the same class as Yoo Hee-won, and pretends to be the second person in her group of followers.

Why did I run into him…

He must be in the middle of a lecture… Are you going to the bathroom for a while…

“Uh…? Uh… I have somewhere to go…”

“Where are you going?”

“To the dormitory… I’m done with the lecture… I’m going to change into my gym clothes…”

Song Do-yoon looked Min-ha up and down and then said nothing.

“You know that we decided to go to the gym together after it’s over, right? Did you tell the management assistant?”

“Uhh. I told you. I’ll be there on time.”

“Go.”

When Song Do-yoon chinned him, Han Min-ha lowered his head and walked past her.

Although it’s been a little over half a day since they became ‘friends’, Han Min-ha knows Song Do-yoon well.

He doesn’t show much emotion and has a quiet personality, but he’s a cunning kid with a hundred venomous snakes lurking inside.

That’s why I don’t know the other kids who are hanminha, but I didn’t want to be close to Song Do-yoon.

It is because he knows very well that a withdrawn personality like himself can never mix with a child like that and will only be taken advantage of.

Although he is bullied because he is a dull and stupid kid with glasses and big breasts, Han Min-ha is not really an idiot who can’t judge the situation.

Han Min-ha, who came out of the lecture hall, turned his head and looked out the window.

nobody saw her.

Han Min-ha pretended to go to the dormitory just in case, but then turned around and walked towards the research building.

And Song Do-yoon, who hid with her back against the window, watched them all through the foundation mirror.

* * * * *

I was just brewing coffee when Han Min-ha knocked on the lab door.

“Professor. I’m Min-ha. Can I come in?”

“Come in. It’s open.”

The door opened and Han Min-ha entered the lab.

“Sit down. I just finished making coffee. Coffee, is it okay?”

“it’s okay.”

Sitting at the round table, I looked at Han Min-ha carefully taking a sip of coffee before asking.

“How are you? These days.”

“Thanks to the professor’s help… I’m better than before. Heewon is also helping.”

“Heewon student? What are you helping?”

Han Min-ha rolled her black eyes behind her glasses and answered.

“Um… what should I say… Heewon gave me a friend.”

“hahahaha. Being friends doesn’t mean appointing a knight. Tell me more about what you mean.”

Han Min-ha told me about what had happened this morning.

It is said that Hee-Won Yoo joined her group to help her adapt to life at the academy.

I never thought I’d put you in a group of followers.

I just hoped that Yoo Hee-won would impress other students by talking to Han Min-ha often.

It’s a very playful solution.

An extreme self-centered way of thinking that handles all problems only from one’s own point of view.

Even though Yu Hee-won’s group are children who follow others, they are very talented individually.

Read from noble mtl dot com

Most of the top ranks in the rankings are dominated by them, and they are also the children closest to the ideal talent our Grafford Academy wants.

Can Min-ha Han survive in such a crowd?

Now that Yoo Hee-won has both eyes open, everyone will pretend to accept Han Min-ha, but inside they will have other thoughts.

‘A kid like that is on the same level as us?’ Same arrogant thoughts.

Anyway… Fortunately, Yoo Hee-won did not ignore my request and faithfully fulfilled it.

Although I don’t know if that’s a good way, I’m sure you thought it was the best way for yourself.

“Yes. That’s great. Let’s take this opportunity to make a lot of friends. If you enjoy your academy life, your grades will naturally go up.”

“All right.”

“But today, Min-ha was not called to find out about friendship.”

Han Min-ha quietly waited for my next words.

“There is something I want to ask Minha Han.”

“Yes.”

“First of all… the reason Minha’s grades are so low is because she hardly uses Aura. You know that, right?”

“I know…”

“All practical subjects taught at the academy use Aura. No matter how good your grades are in written subjects, you can’t become a hero if you don’t write Aura. No matter how well you do, you’ll end up with an administrative job at the Bureau.”

However, Han Min-ha’s writing grades are not good either.

But now is not the time to say such a thing.

“But Minha’s aura is very hard and pure. All the extra points for heroes are like that. The problem is that it’s so heavy that it takes a lot of effort to move it. Most students can overcome the process through innate talent. You can’t enter the academy if you don’t have that kind of talent in the first place.”

“Yes…”

“The reason Minha entered the academy was because it was verified that she had such a talent. So, as usual, Minha should already be able to use an aura. No. But…”

When I blurted out the end of my words, Han Min-ha bowed her head as if she had committed a serious sin.

“I’m not criticizing you. I didn’t call you to scold you. So raise your head.”

Han Min-ha lifted her head and made eye contact with me, and she smiled.

“I want to know what kind of problem Minha has that prevents her from using her Aura. As I just said, from an objective point of view, Minha should be able to use her Aura. Failure to do so is a subjective problem, that is, Minha’s inner self. There’s another obstacle I’m not aware of, a barrier preventing the Aura from working. Do you understand?”

“understand.”

“Is that somehow related to your parents’ disappearance?”

For a moment, Han Min-ha’s eyes shook. I didn’t miss it

“I wonder if my parents, who were active as heroes, disappeared at the same time, and the shock caused me to subconsciously refuse to become a hero.”

Han Min-ha didn’t say anything.

“I’m sorry to bring this up, but I have an obligation to find out the reason so that Minha can use Aura so that she can graduate normally and become a hero.”

Still feeling sorry, I kept my mouth shut and waited quietly while sipping my coffee.

After a while, Minha Han opened her mouth.

“you’re right.”

Right.

Han Min-ha was unable to operate Aura due to the disappearance or death of her parents.

If the fantasy I saw was really the appearance of Han Min-ha’s parents, it would probably have been a very harmonious family.

All of those parents disappeared in an instant, and the management bureau doesn’t say anything.

For Han Min-ha, who was left alone without grandparents, the survivors’ pension provided by the administration was all.

Although I had no choice but to join the academy at the recommendation of the Administration Bureau…

Can that young child resolutely walk down the same path as his parents who went missing while doing heroic activities?

Read from noble mtl dot com

Maybe it’s difficult

But Han Min-ha has to walk that path.

For Han Min-ha, who has nothing but the talent of a hero, the best way to become a hero is to become a hero.

If you leave the academy now and go to a regular high school, you will live a life that is neither here nor there.

And…

After seeing the vision in the archives, I felt a great sense of responsibility towards Han Min-ha.

Even if it is a past setting arbitrarily created by the writer.

I looked at Han Min-ha for a while before opening my mouth.

“Minha’s parents were Secreto. Secreto is an organization of the Administration Bureau that carries out secret missions.”

“Secretto…?”

“You’ve probably never heard of it. It’s a group of heroes on a secret mission.”

I opened my eyes wide as if I was hearing that kind of lamentation for the first time.

“You’re probably wondering, how do I know about such an organization and whether my parents were in it?”

Han Min-ha nodded slowly.

“I was on a team with Minha’s parents.”
