I Became the Academy’s Kibitz Villain

While Baek Seol-hee was still out cold, I carefully connected earphones to the tablet, ensuring she wouldn’t wake up.

[Platinum Sun…! The woman who purified the devil, flew through space, and single-handedly subdued the S-class demon Haftod! She’s a formidable opponent!]

Armored Taejo was overjoyed at the appearance of Platinum Sun.

He probably thought the Goblin wouldn’t show up, but he seemed as delighted as if he had caught an unexpectedly big fish.

‘It looks like he just wants to show off his improved skills.’

Armored Taejo was a typical braggart.

Assuming he’s in his early twenties, it’s as if he’s bragging about being a top player and challenging a professional gamer to a 1:1 top lane battle after reaching Challenger.

Publicly, he may seem different, but in his heart, that’s probably what Armored Taejo felt.

So, what’s the principle behind Yumir’s actions, who was attracted by his aggro?

One was to teach Armored Taejo a lesson for making noise at dawn.

Another was irritation that it was finally her turn to show patriotism, but Armored Taejo attracted Goblin’s aggro.

And the last was stress relief.

It’s not about the stress of not being able to act patriotically or built-up anxiety.

The stress I was talking about was due to the world’s gossip about ‘Platinum Sun’s power.’

In other words.

“An S-class combat power meter.”

Yumir intended to prove that she didn’t just defeat the Half-Toad by a surprise attack but was genuinely powerful by defeating Armored Taejo.

-Platinum Sun? I acknowledge she’s a demon-fighting specialist. But claiming top-tier status just because you can hit their weak points… haha.

It’s not just about having a relative advantage against demons.

-The ability to move through space is an EX-class cheat skill, I admit. But what’s the use of just moving through space? Can you really fight properly? Have you shown your skills against a villain? Oh, you can only fight demons? Haha.

She wasn’t just a supporter with a special ability.

-Isn’t she just a pervert who freely wears weird costumes?

Rather than being a character with an unusual appearance…

She aimed to prove herself as a genuine EX-class ability user who had shocked the Korean Peninsula and shaken the world.

‘People always pick their battles. You don’t just crack open a pumpkin seed without looking.’

Yes.

Picking battles wisely.

Even if the world was chaotic with various incidents, and even if Platinum Sun was just starting to make her name known.

-No matter how strong the Goblin is… cough. It’s nothing. I didn’t think anything, Villain superior!

If someone like the Goblin showed ‘overwhelming power’ and accomplishments, those who feared retaliation would naturally grovel.

‘A good choice.’

After defeating the S-class combat power meter, she would definitively prove herself as an S-class.

That must have been why Yumir stepped forward so confidently.

[The time for patriotism should be solemn.]

…Right?

It couldn’t be that she was doing this because her patriotic time was interrupted.

Or maybe not.

Kaang!

The scattered scrap metal dragons were swiftly sliced by golden blades.

Platinum Sun didn’t just sever the connections between the clumps of scrap metal; she sliced through them with her blade, showcasing her power.

“Kuh, ugh…!!”

[Using a field instead of a suit is a good idea. But for that, you should at least create a scrap metal island.]

Platinum Sun pointed the tip of her blade at Armored Taejo.

[Surrender?]

“Bu-but we’ve only started fighting 3 minutes ago…!”

[You lasted about as long as it takes to cook instant noodles. Good job.]

Platinum Sun tapped Armored Taejo’s shoulder with the flat side of her golden blade, and Taejo clenched his teeth, trembling.

“Me…!”

[I’m not belittling you. You can grow and become stronger. But.]

Platinum Sun sheathed her sword and turned around.

[For now, I’m just stronger.]

“…I ask you. What’s the secret behind your strength?”

[Listen to those around you. You’re not alone in this world.]

“The people around….”

Taejo hung his head low and clenched his fists.

Though the remnants of his ambitious Iron Dragon Sky Song were torn to shreds, and he couldn’t grasp how to become stronger, it seemed he caught a glimpse of a clue.

“A personal question. What’s your goal?”

[That’s a bit presumptuous.]

Pffft.

When Platinum Sun flicked her finger in the air, a golden orb of magic power converged and struck Taejo on the forehead.

“Ouch…! It hurts…!”

[Where did you learn to speak informally to your elders in the Land of Courtesy, huh? How do you know if I’m older or younger than you?]

“I, how would I…know! Whether you’re older or younger than me!”

[You should figure that out yourself, sensibly. Anyway, these immature kids who aren’t adults yet.]

“I may not be an adult, but there are things I can do, even if I’m not one, aagh!”

When Platinum Sun extended her foot towards the air, like cracking a joint, a trail of golden light whipped out, kicking Taejo’s leg.

“Ugh…! Do you think you can just hit an S-class hero and get away with it…?!”

[Hmm. Considering your condition, I think I could beat you up a bit more and nobody would say anything.]

Platinum Sun extended her hand, and a red rope flashed and appeared from it.

Whirl!

“Uh!!”

The rope wrapped around Taejo from his eyes down to his ankles, leaving no gaps.

Unable to even pull his hands out, Taejo collapsed to the side, powerless. Platinum Sun dragged him across the grassy field of the abandoned school, holding the rope that bound him.

[This spot suits you.]

A flagpole soaring high into the sky.

Except for the Taegeukgi, no other flag was fluttering, but Platinum Sun threw Taejo next to the pole where the Taegeukgi was swaying in the wind.

“Ugh!!”

Whirl.

Another rope wrapped around the first one.

Suddenly, Taejo was tied to the flagpole, and Platinum Sun dusted her hands off with a satisfied look.

[Farewell then. Next time, think about the timing when you draw aggro.]

Pavavat.

Platinum Sun drew a circle in the air and left the scene.

In the abandoned school, only Armored Taejo was left, tied to the flagpole, his head hung low.

Just like that.

Taejo was utterly defeated.

Proving that Platinum Sun was stronger than someone on the border of S-Class.

“I’m back. How’s Seol-hee?”

“She’s asleep. Even deeper now.”

“Still? Wow, how much did you tire her out?”

“I didn’t tire her out. If I hadn’t let her sleep, she would’ve lost consciousness even worse than this.”

“That bad…”

Yumir started rummaging through my wardrobe as soon as she transformed back.

“Why don’t you at least put on a robe or something?”

“Why bother now? Oh, here it is.”

Yumir pulled out a box from deep inside my wardrobe.

Unlike other boxes, this one had a more feminine design, and its contents were also women’s items.

“Today… let’s go with sky blue!”

“You don’t need to report that to me.”

“But I can’t see it with my own eyes, can’t I?”

“That’s not what I meant.”

“I know. Hehehe.”

Yumir began to put on the underwear she had taken out of the box.

She had brought several sets of spare underwear from her dormitory to my room, and I had no choice but to make space for her in my wardrobe.

Why, you ask?

Obviously, because the clothes disappear when the transformation is undone.

Both Nana and Yumir hadn’t solved this problem yet, and both were trying to figure out Baek Seol-hee’s ‘external shield-type costume transformation.’

Although it’s not yet possible to transform as quickly as 0.1 seconds like a normal transformation.

“Sigh. Anyway, that immature guy, bothering people since dawn.”

“The sun is slowly rising while you were away.”

“…Ah.”

Yumir looked gloomy.

“Why of all times.”

“Why?”

“After dealing with it quickly and coming back… Ah, never mind.”

She began to speak naturally but then stopped herself.

Even though Baek Seol-hee was still unconscious, it was better to be cautious in conversation.

“Really annoying. Should I have just let the Goblin handle it?”

“Even if you hadn’t gone, the Goblin wouldn’t have shown up, right?”

“Then what was the Goblin doing at that time?”

“Probably pondering why that immature guy was drawing aggro so early in the morning.”

That was indeed the case.

“Wanting to prove one’s skills isn’t solely because of the Duoexini incident. There must be other reasons behind it.”

“Do you know?”

“Investigation’s done. Now that we’ve cleaned Seol-hee up, shall we go to her house and talk?”

I removed the Taeguk Watch and picked up Baek Seol-hee, blanket and all.

“Please.”

“Ugh. I’m starting to feel like a space teleportation shuttle.”

“Then teach it to Seol-hee.”

“It seems more affectionate to call her now.”

“We agreed to speak informally. In private.”

“Can I speak informally too?”

“Not you.”

In the Land of Courtesy.

Saaa.

I immediately entered her room, carrying Baek Seol-hee.

“It’s cleaner than I thought?”

“Tell me about it. I was super surprised too.”

Yumir shrugged her shoulders lightly.

I could glimpse the truth in her expression but didn’t point it out.

“Yumir.”

“Yes?”

“After Seol-hee wakes up and we eat, I have somewhere to go with you.”

“…Oh, that. But, is it okay not to go to work?”

“There’s something more important than going to work.”

I wrote on Yumir’s back with my finger.

Secret Society Intern.

“…Oh my.”

“It seems the Zenros will enter Sejong Island in three days.”

Finally.

“Two S-class heroes for escort.”

“…Ah.”

Yumir flicked her finger.

“Did Armored Taejo get cut?”

“Yeah. He volunteered but was pushed out of the candidates.”

Even though he’s S-class.

“It’s too heavy a task to entrust to Taejo.”

Even more so.

“With A-class also participating in the escort mission.”
