7 – 2. Beast Hook

Until you come into the exam hall, try your luck, easily pass, and come out to the square to wait for the others.

Rich man Liu Yan was in the worst mood.

‘That bastard, there must be something.’

The fortuneteller who got entangled with her on the way to the exclusive exam hall. Her head was full of thoughts of him.

To be more precise, it was doubt.

‘It must be a spy from the guys who tried to kill me last time. Or is that idiot who keeps arguing over everything? Or the bastard that lost the auction? If not, is it on the side of the driver who was fired last month? Did you try to trick me into taking the test? Instructor? I looked like my age, but there’s a good chance of camouflage. Then, how far is the test? Was it just a test of luck? Or is it correct to reveal his identity? Otherwise—-‘

Liu Yan is a mistrust of humans. I doubt and doubt everyone in the world.

The only things she doesn’t suspect are gold coins and treasures that don’t think, talk or betray, and idiots who aren’t worth suspecting.

The reason why she, who distrusts human beings, joined <Romance Academy> this time was to earn money after all.

‘Was the first offer of the entrance exam a trap? Did the whole academy come together and decide to kill me? sh*t! Then I have to run away right now… … Then I can’t take it.’

Daebuho’s head spins tight and bites his nails.

Liu Yan was aiming for just one thing in <Romance Academy>, and the Academy was aiming for Liu Yan’s money. Their mutual understanding was met, and Liu Yan was able to increase the number of students in the academy by one in exchange for a huge donation.

If I told you who that one person was, it would only hurt my mouth.

‘sh*t! I need to take care of that… … First of all, you have to investigate him, trace him, and somehow find a weakness… … !’

“Rio.”

‘But what if it’s a guy who lives in the academy? I can’t come in unless I’m a student… ! After all, the insider must be recruited!”

“Liu Yan.”

“Who are you all the time!?”

Liu, who bit his nails and thought about all sorts of doubts, what-ifs, and future plans, turned his head with a ferocious expression.

Lucas was standing there, looking at the irritated woman with worried eyes.

“Liu, your fingernails are bleeding.”

“……I know, Lucas. Don’t mind.”

“How can we not care? We’ve seen it since we were kids. Healing magic even now…”

“Go.”

“… Liu.”

Lucas continues to take care of Liu, and Liu Yan bitterly refuses.

Seeing that arrogant <mage> from a prestigious European family get embarrassed by that little rich man, the other people who had already passed the test and left showed their own reactions.

Someone sighs saying that again, someone laughs like it’s fun, and someone doesn’t even show interest, and someone clicks their tongue.

and one of them. <Psychic> Lane Arthur swept her silver bobbed hair and stepped forward.

It was because I couldn’t bear to look at Liu and Lucas.

“Mr. Liu, did you get that suspicious person again? Who is this time? A passerby you met on the road? Or Instructor Charles Teddy Bear? Or that fortune teller?”

“go away.”

“That ridiculous suspicion is annoying when you see it from the side. Are you suspicious of that fortune teller? He’s not even here right now?”

She said that the fortune teller you suspected hadn’t passed the exam yet and didn’t even come here, as if mocking the fortune teller.

It was definitely the opposite of the time before the exam, when I had defended him somewhat, saying, ‘The fortune teller is a classmate, so be polite’.

Liu, who was familiar with the pretense and true nature of a woman named Rain Artur, looked back at Lane with an arrogant smile.

“Hey, idiot.”

“I don’t want to hear from a suspicious patient.”

“Don’t you have an eye color?”

“……what?”

Liu Yan is suspicious of the fortuneteller. Doubting, doubting, doubting excessively, being conscious.

And when she suspects someone, that ‘someone’ is someone who could cause her some damage.

In other words, Liu suspects only those who are competent enough to touch her, the rich man.

“Didn’t you see that he answered all my questions earlier? I didn’t even use my job skills, but that’s about it. What does it mean that someone like that isn’t here?”

Yes, after passing the exclusive exam, you can come out to the square again. However, the reason why special occupations are gathered here is that they are basically acquaintances and know that they will become classmates.

Those who pass the special exam form a special class. But the fortune teller tells a different story.

Passing the exam, there is no reason to stay here.

“The ones here are me, Lucas, some stupid b*tch, the princess, and the saint.

“………….”

“Nam Goong-min is a similar type of person.”

“……Nam Goong-min?”

“The name of the fortune teller you mentioned is Namgoong Min. Didn’t you tell me the name at first?

“Liu Yan…!!”

fast.

At Rio’s provocation, Lane Arthur gnashed his teeth. Sparks flew from her eyes, and her hair rose to the sky in anger.

… … No, really, her bobbed hair was slowly moving up and the rocks and trees around her were quivering.

<Psychic> Rain Arthur used a job skill.

Others, who had only watched Liu and Reign arguing, hardened their faces at the sight.

“Mr. Lane, calm down!”

“Rain! Unauthorized use of skills within the academy is prohibited!”

“Don’t stop me, brother. Today, I’m going to give this cheeky woman a proper education!”

“It’s f*cking sick. Try it. They say that a hawk is medicine for a crazy dog? I’ll beat you up as much as I want.”

“This year———”

match. match.

“Please stop it.”

A large stone floating in the air aims at Liu, and Liu also takes a ring decorated with all sorts of jewels out of his hand.

Although it was Lucas and <Saint> who were on the verge of running into the scene that was about to collide properly.

All of them stopped at the sound of light applause.

“……The princess.”

“Princess.”

“Honestly, I don’t care if you two fight or not. But that’s a personal matter. I don’t do it to the academy.”

<The Imperial Family> Kim Eun-ha.

Geum Ok-yeop of the imperial family of the unified Korean Empire shot Liu and Rain with some contempt.

No matter how world-class rich people and children of prestigious European families are, there is a law above them. The Catholic saint and the two royal families of the unified Korean Empire had the power to intervene and silence their squabbles.

Liu Yan and Lane Arthur shut their mouths at Kim Eun-ha’s cold mediation.

“………under.”

“…brother!”

… … In the end, there is no reconciliation, just putting each other out of sight. Liu, who ended the argument by violently turning his head, thought about it again, and Lane immediately clung to Lucas.

However, Lucas’ eyes were not on the younger sister in front of him, but on Liu.

“Brother, that woman…!!”

“Calm down, Lane. You were careless this time.”

“Ha, but!”

“Even if it’s just an argument, it’s wrong to try to use your hands first. Are you going to harm the Arthur family?”

Cold words and reprimanding eyes.

A cold expression that doesn’t feel goodwill or warmth at all.

He looked at Rain with a desperate look at his older brother, and then lowered his head.

“……No. I was wrong, older brother.”

“It’s enough to know. Then… Liu!”

“…”

“I don’t know how many times I’ve said this, but get out of here, Lucas.”

“Rio, calm down. I will help you.”

“……brother.”

Unlike his attitude towards Rain, Lucas smiles as softly as possible and treats Liu kindly.

Rain sees Lucas, who continues to struggle, and Liu, who is still ignoring him.

It was as if the situation had returned to the way it was before she intervened, and Lane glared at Liu with full of hatred.

“Liu Yan…!!”

“……Whoa.”

It’s a piece of sh*t.

Princess Kim Eun-ha sighed as she watched the same scandal.

Her brother has not been seen since she passed and came out, and the <Saint> who remained with her has disappeared somewhere, perhaps tired of the quarrel.

Kim Eun-ha, who turned her gaze away from those three who showed a soggy love triangle, suddenly stopped her gaze at one place.

The place where someone came from the inside, which can be seen from the <Imperial Family> job skills.

That means that the owner of the test center behind the door passed the special test.

“Fortune teller, Namgoong Min…”

That trace was there from the time she passed the dedicated test for the third time and waited for others to come out.

Namgoong Min beat her and took second place.

… The princess quietly closed her eyes.

*

“It’s nice here.”

After making an appointment to go home with the teddy bear, Namgoong-min got out of the exam hall and wandered around the academy until he stopped at a certain place.

Although <Romance Academy> is quite large, most of them are environmental places such as mountains and lakes, and residential and commercial areas ‘outside’ the academy.

In other words, although the floating city itself is called the Romance Academy, the size of the real <Romance Academy> is not that big.

Of course, it is absolutely not the size of an ordinary school. It’s the size of three or four decent universities.

And <Romance Academy> has one peculiarity.

If you’re an academy student, you can live anywhere, even if you’re not on campus.

“It’s moderately outskirts, and the size of the building is just right.”

<Romance Academy> was a game that took time to move. There is a fixed time in a day, and if you choose the option to go to another place in the academy, that much time passes.

‘So, where in the academy to base it was a pretty important factor.’

Usually, it’s good to stay near the building where you’re taking classes, but there are times when it’s better to stay outside or somewhere else for certain events or interactions with people.

If you value dating outside the academy, it’s okay to stay outside the academy… … … It was a system that seemed to have a high degree of freedom, but to be honest, it was just uncomfortable.

‘Is it bad if I spend a moderate amount of time on campus and don’t take time when moving around, younger brother?’

Because of that, I had to organize an efficient traffic line for no reason, which only made my head hurt more.

Still, now that <Romance Academy> has become a reality, this was an opportunity.

Didn’t he cheat on the teddy bear for this and get his crush on him?

“Okay, open a fortune teller.”

The first step to earn regular income and see the ending as a ‘fortune teller’.

It started with my own little fortune teller.
