The Academy’s Time Stop Player

The time is 7pm.

Ha-jun and Han Si-young, who returned to the academy, went straight to the principal’s office.

“Hey, this is the elixir… … ?”

Choi Joong-won began to look at the elixir with interesting eyes.

As soon as he saw the elixir, he knew at a glance what it was made of.

“Okay, it’s characteristic magic… … . The magic itself was diluted in water and sold. Certainly, if this magical property acts as a catalyst for the growth of a superhuman, it deserves to be called an elixir. one… … .”

In an instant, Choi Joong-won’s eyes slowly began to narrow.

“I will have to check to see if there are any side effects… … . It doesn’t look very good to me.”

He immediately removed his gaze from the elixir and looked at Ha-jun and Han Si-young.

Choi Joong-won looked at the two and began to smile kindly.

“Thank you. Please do my favor.”

“no.”

“Yes. it’s okay.”

“Huhu, you did my request anyway, so I guess I have to do one of yours too. Feel free to say what you want. I will listen to everything I can do in my line.”

At those words, Si-Young Han was silent for a moment as if lost in thought, and Ha-Jun started thinking with her arms crossed. Choi Joong-won, who looked at the children calmly, opened his mouth as if he was caring for them.

“I don’t need to tell you now. You can think about it slowly later and if you think of it, you can tell me.”

Then his gaze turned to look out the window.

It was a dark night when the sun had already set.

“Gee, it’s exam period, and I’ve been eating up too much of your time. Go and rest today. It was late.”

“All right.”

At those words, Si-Young Han bowed her head and slowly got up from the sofa.

However, Ha-jun did not care about Choi Joong-won’s words and was still thinking with his arms crossed.

“Well… … .”

And soon after, Ha-jun’s eyes began to turn to Choi Joong-won.

Ha-jun looked at Choi Joong-won and opened his mouth.

“I have something to tell you.”

Choi Joong-won was a little surprised at that, but he looked at Ha-joon with interest.

“That’s right, then Siyoung cadet… … ?”

“I’ll just go. I think it’s something we’ll talk about separately.”

“Huhu, I see. Rest in peace.”

Soon after, Han Si-young left the principal’s office as if she was taking care of Ha-joon.

Ha-jun, who became alone with Choi Joong-won, touched his chin for a moment and thought about it, then slowly opened his mouth.

“What would you do if the side effects of this elixir were severe?”

“I was planning on doing it on my own line. I was just planning to catch him and ban him for sale.”

“Then can you just leave this to me?”

It was Choi Joong-won who looked at Ha-joon with a slightly startled look at those words.

“Are you talking about it?”

“Yes.”

“Hoo… … That’s interesting. Why?”

Ha-jun pondered the question a little and then explained the reason.

“I think it is true that elixir develops the power of superhumans. Of course, there are serious side effects as well.”

“Right. You already knew the side effects of this elixir.”

“Yes.”

“So, what do you want to do with this elixir?”

“I plan to use it without side effects.”

At those words, Choi Joong-won had no choice but to look at Ha-joon with eyes full of surprise.

In fact, it was a method that Choi Joong-won also thought of, but it was an impossible method in the first place.

The reason was that the side effect was also a characteristic of magic.

As far as he knew, there was still no way to get rid of the magical properties.

When he said that he would do it simply, Choi Joong-won felt puzzled, but he couldn’t help but wonder about Ha-jun’s method. He asked Ha-jun with a serious face.

“If there is a side effect to this characteristic magic itself, it is also a characteristic of magic. You mean you know how to get rid of that trait?”

Soon after, Ha-jun’s answer to that question was short but full of confidence.

“Yes. I know.”

the moment I heard it.

Choi Joong-won couldn’t help but smile without realizing it.

The result of checking with the eyes of a sage.

Ha-jun’s answer was telling me that there was no lie.

* * *

After finishing talking with Choi Joong-won, Ha-jun returned to the dormitory.

Ha-jun wanted to go back to the dorm and lie down on the bed right away, but he wanted to do his job and lay down. Ha-jun sat on a chair after a long time and opened the textbook on the desk.

“Well then… … .”

Ha-jun, who was relaxed, immediately started studying.

It’s been a long time since I studied, but I didn’t forget how to do it.

Still, when I was in school, I had a record of being ranked 10th in all schools, but did I forget that know-how?

Ha-jun began to focus on how he studied at the time.

Quietly- Quietly-

I wondered if I could only hear the sound of handwriting in Hajun’s dorm.

For a moment, even the sound of handwriting was not audible to Ha-jun’s ears, and the two dilated pupils began to focus exclusively on the textbook.

The supreme indomitable persistence and concentration.

That made Ha-jun exert his concentration to the limit.

Has it been like that for an hour?

At one point, it was Hajun who stopped moving his hand at ease.

Ha-jun put down the book slowly, folded his arms, and began to ponder.

“Well… … Still, the calculation problem seems unreasonable?”

Studying with concentration using the supreme fortitude was not a bad method.

The concentration itself was exerted to the limit, and the time was shortened to the extent of being able to memorize what should have been memorized for an hour in 30 minutes.

So, it seemed that the memorization course itself could be easily completed within a week, but the problem was the calculation course.

Also, I don’t know what the problem itself is.

[Assuming that the monster in a random dungeon is a low-risk beast of 3, find out the magic concentration of the dungeon by specifying the expected risk level of the dungeon. (The number of low-grade beasts in the dungeon is 53.)]

For reference, this seems to be the easiest thing to do.

It’s a subject called interpretation and analysis of dungeons, but is it possible that you have studied such a subject in real life in the first place? … .

I don’t know if it’s a simple memorization, but I needed someone’s help for a subject that required basic calculations.

It’s just that your concentration has improved, not your understanding.

“then… … .”

Ha-jun immediately thought of a way.

If you’re alone, you two.

Why don’t you ask a well-educated student about questions you don’t know?

It was when Ha-jun was thinking about who to send a picture of a difficult problem to with his phone.

Wei Ying-

Hearing a sudden notification sound, Hajun turned on his smartphone and checked the text.

It was Anna, Seol-ah Yoo, Ju-ah Lee, and Liam, who is still the caller.

[Anna: Are you okay with the exam? It’s nothing else, so I’ll let you know if there’s anything you don’t know.]

[Yoo Seol-ah: Mr. Ha-jun. If there’s anything you don’t know, ask at any time. I’ll let you know.]

[Lee Joo-ah: Ha-jun-ah, when that time comes, would you like to study together later?]

[010-XXXX-XXXX: hahahaha! Isn’t this the biggest crisis in school life, Ha-jun?]

“her… … .”

Was it the image that I couldn’t study like that?

Anyway, I didn’t want to ask, even because of my pride, after sending such a reply.

In particular, I was annoyed by Liam’s slurred tone.

Will he just block it?

‘under… … Then what about this… … .’

That was then.

smart-

At the sound of someone knocking, Hajun’s head turned.

With the thought of who it was, I opened the door and a familiar girl was standing in front of the door.

Ha-joon was not surprised at the sight.

“Weren’t you in the hospital?”

At those words, the girl looked at Ha-joon and smiled softly.

It was Lee Joo-hee, the cadet president.

* * *

“I came here to say thank you.”

Ha-jun suddenly brought her into the room.

And it was still a bit absurd, so I had no choice but to ask.

“Are you hurt?”

“It has already been treated.”

“And were you discharged today?”

It was Joo-hee Lee, who turned her eyes to see if she was embarrassed by Ha-jun’s words.

Ha-jun could have guessed it.

‘You ran away… … .’

Originally, I thought Joo Hee had this kind of personality.

Still, I wondered if there was anything I wanted to say enough to leave the hospital, but I didn’t think much of it.

Hajun sighed and opened his mouth to her.

“under… … If you are not in good shape, please do not overdo it.”

“sorry. It’s my first time getting help… … . I didn’t know how to say thank you.”

It was Lee Joo-hee who smiled softly with those words.

“If there is anything you want, tell me. I will help you as much as I can.”

“I’ll call you later.”

“You said that and you didn’t contact me. The student council doesn’t even come.”

“Well… … . But not really… … .”

As I was about to say no, Ha-jun immediately remembered something and brought the book that was on the desk.

“Then can you teach me something like this?”

It was Lee Joo-hee, who made a puzzled expression at those words.

“Are you okay with just that?”

“I’ll call you later if I need anything. It is urgent now.”

“i get it. What do you want to know?”

Ha-jun pulled out all the books for subjects that required calculations.

And he opened his mouth as he reached out to Lee Joo-hee.

“Everything.”

As soon as the opportunity arose, I was planning to learn everything thoroughly.

* * *

When time passed and it was Friday.

Ha-jun’s studies went smoothly.

Because there was so much to teach, Joo-hee Lee came to Ha-jun’s dorm every day. And as I taught Ha-jun every day, I couldn’t help but feel that Lee Joo-hee was surprised.

“You are surprisingly good at studying.”

To be honest, I’d say it’s a little weird.

There were things I heard from Joo-ah, and when I saw the images, I didn’t feel that way. Of course, to that answer, Ha-jun only replied with a smirk.

“It’s because the president taught me well.”

It wasn’t an empty word.

Would you say that the way she teaches is actually easy?

“Well, then, that’s good. It means that you have done the right thing.”

“Yeah, what. Can you teach me on Saturdays and Sundays too?”

“Yeah, but I think it would be better to move to another place other than the dorm tomorrow.”

At those words, it was Ha-jun who looked at Lee Joo-hee with a puzzled expression.

“why?”

At Ha-jun’s question, Lee Joo-hee explained the reason with a slightly troubled expression.

“There are some disturbing rumors going around the academy.”

“What rumors?”

“that… … I keep coming to your dormitory every evening, and the other cadets are mistaken.”

“… … .”

Ha-jun understood the situation without saying a word.

It seems that there are rumors that it is ridiculously painful to study diligently.

“Oh, yes. Yes.”

Well, I can’t make her in trouble with my own request, so Ha-jun said he would understand.

Then, a text message came to the smartphone with a ding- sound.

Immediately after checking the text, the corners of Hajun’s lips began to rise.

“President.”

“yes?”

“It probably won’t happen tomorrow. I study on Sunday.”

It was Lee Joo-hee who tilted her head at those words.

Hajun turned his gaze again and checked the text.

The owner of the letter was none other than Kim Jung-yong, president of the Association.

[You have found the base of the altar.]
