I Became a Mental Health Care Patient in the Apocalyptic Era - Chapter 55



Episode 55-Cupid (2)

A small smile came to his lips at the sound of swordsmanship resounding in the darkness.

‘Even if it’s just this much, it won’t be a big problem.’

In the first place, they are well-matched, and on the first day of contact, you can get closer by adding an element that makes you interested in each other a little more.

In addition to that, Park Soo-hyun will try to connect them, so you can say I’ve done my part enough… But!

‘If there’s something I can do, it’s always better to do more.’

Anyway, there isn’t much I can do on this training trip.

In the first place, I will act as a buffer, not a person who trains arms, and to develop my skills as a buffer, training my cuteness is much more efficient than training magic and mana, so I had plenty of time anyway.

‘Does it really feel like being Cupid?’

After confirming that the sound of the swordsman had stopped, I went to sleep early in the morning.

***

“This morning is self-study.”

Professor Hwang said while trying to hide his seriousness.

Since she is a woman who plays the role of a strict professor very well at the academy, no cadets could notice her poker face.

In the first place, no one knew what she would do in a serious situation, unless she had an acquaintance with Professor Hwang.

However, Park Soo-hyun and I knew.

She was very embarrassed right now, and that the main event of the training trip would take place soon.

‘It’s something Park Soo-hyun has to solve anyway.’

All I had to do was connect Choi Jae-hyeok and Lee Seon-hee by taking advantage of this self-study.

“Where are you looking?”

I looked at Choi Jae-hyuk and Lee Seon-hee repeatedly, and Ga-hyeon looked at me with a pouty expression.

“I was just looking at the distant mountains.”

“If you don’t have anything to do, how about some buff training?”

Seoyeon cleared her throat and looked at me.

‘It’s a really obvious trick.’

He said something like how about buff training, but what he really wants is to see me acting cute.

Jisoo and Seoyeon, who had heard that they were buffs, also came this way.

“I’ll do my own thing, so you guys should work hard. Coming to a place with such a good environment isn’t easy, right? I want to make new friends.”

“Are you referring to Choi Jae-hyuk?”

“Uh, it seems like you’re on the same team as Park Soo-hyun, and it seems like there’s nothing wrong with being close.”

It was clear that all three of them would get into trouble if they said they were getting close with Lee Seon-hee, so they used Choi Jae-hyeok as an excuse.

“Looks like you’re busy over there too?”

“Huh?”

After listening to Seoyeon’s words, I looked at the place where Choi Jaehyuk was, and Lee Seonhee approached him and was talking to her.

‘Huh?’

Strange. Lee Seon-hee shouldn’t talk to Choi Jae-hyeok right now.

I knew their love story quickly.

Actually, the first meeting is on the first day of admission after entering the academy and being in the same class, but yesterday was the first time we started talking properly.

Choi Jae-hyeok, who was hit by Lee Seon-hee who ran without looking properly, protested to keep his eyes open, and Lee Seon-hee said that you look a bit strong, and started sparring.

Choi Jae-hyeok, who bumped into Lee Seon-hee properly, couldn’t fight properly in the beginning, and the event ended with a defeat after being pushed back safely.

If the player interferes, it can be made somewhat closer from now on, but Park Soo-hyun, who will play the role of the player, is busy following Professor Hwang and resolving the event.

That’s why I tried to connect…

‘What are you talking about?’

It was quite a distance, so I couldn’t tell exactly what they were talking about.

“We had a fight yesterday, but it looks like we’re going to fight again today? Lee Sun-hee must want revenge.”

I couldn’t hear what the two of them were saying because I was weak physically, but I had a helper with very good physical abilities.

“Has Lee Sun-hee lost?”

“Uh. After a close fight, Choi Jae-hyeok won.”

‘How?’

Over time, the two of them will be able to raise their skills to an almost identical level, but at this point, Lee Sun-hee is clearly superior.

Choi Jae-hyeok would have started with great damage from Lee Seon-hee’s torso headbutt…

‘Did the event change a bit because of me?’

Under the assumption that Choi Jae-hyeok somehow avoided Lee Seon-hee’s torso headbutt, there was nothing strange about Choi Jae-hyuk’s better sense in the dark and somehow defeating Lee Sun-hee.

Unlike Choi Jae-hyeok, Seon-hee Lee has a fighting spirit, so it was not strange that she would come back the next day to seek revenge.

‘It would be advantageous if I did this.’

I don’t care who wins the battle between the two.

Perhaps Lee Sun-hee has a much higher chance of winning because of the difference in basic skills, but the two fought over two days, and unlike the first sparring, the second sparring was fought in front of everyone else, so the relationship between the two would have formed more closely.

‘How did you avoid it?’

I lightly said it was a headbutt, but Lee Seon-hee must have been running with all her might, but to avoid it…

-Cheong!

While I was thinking about this and that, the two swords collided.

And as everyone expected, Lee Sun-hee won.

Since both of them had basic skills, it could be said that it was a good enough match, but Lee Seon-hee slowly seized the victory and completely defeated Choi Jae-hyeok.

“Wow!”

Applause and shouts poured out to the two who showed a great match, and the uproar ended for a while as Lee Seon-hee lifted Choi Jae-hyuk from the collapse.

And…

“Do you want to see me for a second?”

Jaehyuk Choi approached me with a very serious expression.

Although Seoyeon and Gahyeon were nervous and some of the kids who acted like they were my fans the other day glanced at me, I was sure that Jaehyuk Choi wouldn’t do anything weird, so I put the other kids at ease. After that, I followed suit.

“Can you really read the future?”

Choi Jae-hyeok asked with dubious doubt.

“There’s no way you can move a girl the size of Lee Seon-hee. If the relationship you mentioned is Lee Seon-hee, you must have really read the future or met by chance.”

“Well, I’m not sure.”

“Tell me, who was the relationship you talked about yesterday, and how did you know that Seonhee Lee would fight with me?”

His eyes were serious.

Beyond the mid-point, it is a character that has a serious personality and has the status of a comedian, but we are not close to each other now, so we could not expect such an aspect.

“Well, I just did what Park Soo-hyun told me to do.”

Originally, I am such a great person! I tried to move on, but Choi Jae-hyeok’s eyes were too serious, so I decided to blame all of this on Park Soo-hyun.

‘It’s not even a lie at all.’

Park Soo-hyun didn’t communicate well with me, so he must have wanted me to be the cupid connecting Choi Jae-hyeok and Lee Seon-hee.

“Park Soo-hyun?”

Jaehyuk Choi’s expression softened slightly.

Park Soo-hyun is a talented person who he admits, and since he has many unknown secrets, there is a high probability that he will pass it off as if he ordered it.

“Uh, I don’t know the details either. Ask Park Soo-hyun for details.”

“I couldn’t see where he went…”

Park Soo-hyun must be trying to cut off the event that happened while traveling with Professor Hwang even before it started.

‘To be precise, he’s pretending to cut it off.’

He must be well aware that he can’t stop the event from starting anyway, but Professor Hwang doesn’t know that, so he must be pretending to do his best.

“Looking for Park Soo-hyun is up to you, and I’m on my way.”

“Sleep…”

Thanks to the girls who were following us and keeping an eye on us, I was able to escape Choi Jae-hyuk’s eyes pretty easily.

*******

“…”

Professor Hwang lowered his head.

‘I couldn’t stop it…’

Professor Hwang, who noticed that an unknown monster tried to invade the mountain last night, did his best to prevent the monster from entering.

He had to stop the invasion of monsters somehow because a magic phenomenon had occurred in the sky and communication with the academy was cut off.

‘He’s a clever guy.’

He was by no means a monster stronger than her, but he was very clever and intelligent.

Taking advantage of the considerable width of the barrier she had to block, she attempted to infiltrate an enormous amount every hour, and as if there was no limit to her physical strength, she maintained that momentum from last night to this morning.

Once I had the cadets self-study, I tried my best to stop the monster by myself, but I couldn’t stop the monster from breaking through the barrier.

“It can’t be helped. It has been confirmed that the monster has already breached the barrier, so we must minimize the damage until we can communicate with the academy.”

Professor Hwang raised his head at the calm tone of his voice, as if he knew the monster could break through the barrier.

Park Soo-hyun, a cadet called the academy’s biggest prospect.

If it wasn’t for him, the barrier would have been breached an hour ago.

“Cadet Park Soo-hyun. Would you like to gather the other cadets?”

“Okay.”

Yes, the monster was weaker than Professor Hwang anyway.

‘No student will be able to touch it.’

-Slurreuk

Unbeknownst to her, a new monster sneaked in through the perforated barrier.
