Academy Silver Gatekeeper - Chapter 212



212 – Side Story 11

When Baek Seo-jin arrived at the place where the gate was said to have appeared, it was not there.

Including Han Ji-yoon, other S-ranks who were off duty or waiting nearby as support.

It was a gathering of people who normally would not gather in one place.

“Uh? Seojin came too?”

“Because there was an emergency standby order. “I guess Lina will come too?”

“He must be really grumpy.”

“I did. But when I asked him to come, he replied that he would come.”

“That’s entirely thanks to Seojin. I thought Irina had grown up again.”

Han Ji-yoon shakes her head as if she knew that would happen.

In the meantime, her other S class she sneaks up and asks her a question.

“I just arrived, so what happened?”

“You know it’s a gate appearance, right? But no matter what I do, the grade is not measured. Even experts are at a loss. “There is not a single monster in sight.”

“It must be difficult. “If you know the grade, you can assign the appropriate number of people.”

The S-ranks can’t just wait here forever.

You need to find out your grade quickly so you can go back to your seat except for the necessary people.

Proper rest plays a big role in improving combat ability.

“Shall I give it a try?”

Baek Seo-jin said, “What about Han Ji-yoon and his colleagues?” And look at him.

When I thought about it, I was mistaken because this person, Baek Seo-jin, was so good at fighting.

His exact ability is none other than the auxiliary type. Isn’t that also detection and measurement?

“I see? Mr. Seojin, you were in the measurement and detection field, right?”

“I was mistaken for a moment. “I have a good fighting sense, so I’d say I’m into martial arts or weapons.”

“Actually, I think I might be in that line, too, but there’s no change.”

After a brief chat, Baek Seo-jin approached the gate with them.

There, people who specialized in understanding the dungeon’s level were whining.

“Ah, are you here? Everyone. Sorry. I think I need a little more time.”

The person who appears to be in charge offers greetings and an apology.

It seems that the S-class side came to urge us as this work was delayed.

“No, no. These people are going through a hard time, so why apologize? Rather, I would like to help you out, is that okay? Even though I look like this, I come from a background in detection and measurement.”

“Huh? Oh, were you an assistant? Oh my god “I thought you were a combat person until now.”

This is something that is greatly misunderstood by everyone I meet.

If you think about it, you probably had more engagements with Elders than other S-ranks.

“Then, let me ask you a favor, Mr. Seojin. “I was pulled over even though I was off-duty, so I want to see the results as soon as possible.”

Password is important. There is nothing more miserable than being dragged on your day off.

With the words that he would do his best, Baek Seo-jin approached the measuring staff.

“How is the situation?”

“It’s the same. There is no vibration response from the magic power, and there is no feeling of noise inside.”

“The monster’s energy has not even been confirmed at all.”

“Yes. It would be better if it were open, but it’s frustrating because it’s not.”

At those words, Baek Seo-jin sighed and looked at the gate.

If it were an existing gate, it would open its mouth and pour out monsters at this point.

Even if that isn’t the case, at least there will be a magic vibration or wave that will let you know the grade.

For some reason, this damn gate was so quiet.

I gently place my hand and feel the magic here.

Normally, it would be normal to move roughly in response to the impact and not hide the uncomfortable feeling.

In a way, this world and Gate are enemies to each other.

‘And yet there is no response. Even beyond this, it’s as quiet as a huge cavity.’

Is it really because it’s just an empty cavity with nothing in it?

Or maybe it’s because it’s a huge world where even a moment’s worth of magical power is inconceivable.

Baek Seo-jin, who was sobbing, decided that there was no other way.

“Everyone. Step back immediately. You are even thinking about withdrawing.”

“Yes?”

“There is no way, so I guess I will have to open it by force and check.”

Anyway, I can’t just watch it like this for 100 days.

It’s a nightmare when the gate opens, but it’s also hard to watch the gate not open.

Only when it is clearly decided can people be assigned and organized.

If you look at it that way, it was right to do it no matter what happened.

“Oppa Seojin! “I’m here!”

At this time, Irina’s shouting was heard very loudly from behind her.

If it were normal, I would have at least scolded him to stop yelling.

But now, I could say that I was quite happy to see her.

“Lina! “Come here for a moment!”

“To? Now? “I was going to have a chat with Jiyoon.”

“Come quickly! Because it’s urgent!”

“Yes. Yes – I’m going, I’m going -“

Even though the situation is not very good, how can we still feel relaxed?

Is that the composition of a truly strong person who ‘can crush any situation’?

“… Hey, wait a minute. “No, Lina, you?”

“Don’t say anything to me. Because they were whining to take them too.”

“I don’t even know my grade right now?”

“Yes. As the saying goes, they don’t even know the grade anyway. If it’s S grade, my brother and I will definitely take it, but what if it’s A grade or lower? Even then, we were the main force, Right? In times like that, it makes sense to use these guys.”

Am I wrong? It was Irina looking at herself with an expression like this.

Thanks to her, her head she felt a little dizzy, but she couldn’t refute anything.

As the saying goes, these people in front of you are actually not that special.

“There’s nothing to worry about, Examiner. “I’ve been training really hard.”

“You’re right! Oh, you don’t have to worry about the academy! “I came here with permission!”

“You have to speak clearly, junior, right? It was a situation where I had no choice but to give permission.”

“That’s right. “Irina is standing behind us. How can we stop her?”

Starting with Kim Soo-hyun, Lee Hyun-woo, Yu Da-som, and Kang Ha-na.

Somehow, the entire team came together in one place.

I’m going crazy, but even if I wanted to, could this be true? I also think so.

Anyway, there’s myself, Irina, Jiyoon Han, and other S-rank colleagues around here.

There are forces deployed that cannot be dangerous unless the team members become dangerous.

“Then the team members should stand by. Lina, you come next to me.”

“What do you plan to do?”

“Nothing special. Just force the gate open.”

“Ignorantly attacking you with magic power? Is that okay? “If this is the case, then it’s definitely a condolence letter, right?”

“I think the president of the association will understand. You can’t just stare at a gate that can’t even measure your grade forever. There is also Jiyoon who was brought in on her day off.”

“That’s Ji-yoon’s death. … Ah! Jiyoon, I’m sorry!!”

It was Irina who immediately apologized for the stinging stares on the back of her head.

“Anyway!” I just have to do it the way I do best, right?”

“Okay. And Su-hyeon and the rest will wait behind us just in case.”

“Not the rest! Examiner!”

From noble mtl dot com

“I understand, Student Hyunwoo Lee. “I understand, so I’ll take Kang Hana and his girlfriend and go to the back.”

“Poetry, examiner!”

“… I will definitely end up with a boyfriend…”

Baek Seo-jin and Irina stand side by side at both ends of the gate, leaving their individual reactions behind.

After catching their breath for a moment, the man and woman finally looked at each other, nodded, and—

Kugugu!―

Magical power was injected to force open the gate.

“… Wow, brother. Is this gate really sturdy? Even if you do this, it won’t open?”

At this point, I am still worried.

Actually, this shouldn’t be opened, but I wonder if they are opening it themselves.

However, the door that has already been created cannot be left unattended forever.

This is going to happen anyway, so it might be better to solve it now.

“Go a little harder. Get ready!”

“Yes yes. Then let’s go!”

Quaa!!―

The magic power of the two strong men surges like crazy and knocks on the gate.

Soon, a crack appeared between the gap in the huge door that was closed tightly.

“It’s open! Gate open!!”

“Measurement personnel only check the grade and step back!”

Those who are finally able to check the inside get to work right away.

But the news I heard a while later was still not good.

“Tsu, impossible to measure! It’s still impossible to measure!!”

“Is it because the grade is high?”

“I don’t think so! It is simply impossible to measure!”

“All right! As of this time, all auxiliary branches have left! From now on, the combat personnel will take charge!”

Following Han Ji-yoon’s orders, the auxiliary personnel quickly retreated.

And in front of it, there are various combat personnel waiting in advance.

The lowest grade is B grade, the rest are higher.

And there are as many as four S-ranks waiting.

This means that no matter what happens, we will organize everything right here.

“Mr. Seojin! What does it look like inside?”

“…”

“Mr. Seojin!?”

“…”

“Hey, Irina! What’s the matter! “Tell me the situation there!”

When Baek Seo-jin didn’t answer, I called Irina, but she also remained silent.

Sensing something strange about her, she hurriedly headed to the front of her gate.

And-

“… Crazy. What is this again?”

With a face that is out of its mind and a voice full of dazed energy.

Han Ji-yoon sighed in another world that unfolded beyond the gate.
