Chapter 132: Chapter 131
Scared, they quickly ran away. T.Y.C.’s entrance examination was not important. The fear that they might be eaten by the wolf if they do something wrong made them forget their goal. They couldn’t think of why a giant wolf would reside within Hwachun Academy, which was known for its safety.
‘Grrrrrrrr-!’
Deuk felt better when he saw the two students running away at his roar. It was because of his feeling of achieving his master’s orders. Then the door of Residence opened.
Deuk quickly became a cute puppy. This was because his master gave the order to stay in the form of a puppy, except when chasing someone out. It was Cook who worked at the Ok Haemi’s residence that opened the door and put her head out.
“Is teacher Ok here?”
“Woof?”
“If not, you must be hungry.”
Cook went into the kitchen, and took some rice soup and put it in front of Deuk.
“You’re having a hard time keeping this place safe tonight. Eat a lot.”
“Woof, woof!”
Originally, Deuk was a carnivore, but recently he opened his eyes to a new taste. It was rice soup. It was a food with a savory yet chewy, mysterious charm. He thought this place was a good place too, as he got a rice soup.
“Oh my! It’s Deuk!”
Deuk, who was eating rice soup, raised his head. It was Ok Haemi who came through the gate.
Deuk liked Ok Haemi. She was not a dangerous person, and she was also a person who thought of his master. And he also felt an unknowable comfort in her.
“So you were guarding this place!”
Ok Haemi stroked Deuk. She understood what was going on by Deuk’s appearance in her Residence.
“What a good man, that Teacher Kang.”
A little further from the Residence of Ok Haemi. Near the center was the Residence of the Second Year Student’s Blade Teacher Sung Kak. It was thanks to Sung Kak’s efforts to raise his position so far. He often bought teachers drinks and give gifts on their birthdays. But it was inevitable. If he didn’t…he wouldn’t be able to do a favor of that sly fox, and his secret was to be revealed.
‘But…’
He clenched his teeth.
‘You b.a.s.t.a.r.ds! You dare use me?’
Standing in the yard, he drew his blade and swung at a imaginary figure. The figure was a Student’s. It was the sly fox who found out Sung Kak’s dirty side and was using it for his own good.
‘Nam Soang…….’
He gnashed his teeth.
Only consolation was that he had to serve as the mindless T.Y.C.’s guidance teacher until the Fourth Year process was out. But he knew. Just because that fox is out of the school, he won’t let himself be at ease. Sung Kak risked being discovered by different teachers every spring, helping T.Y.C. with their entrance test. He had to rent a cla.s.sroom in his name and provide them with a meeting place, and he also had to help them get out of Academy and do deviant things. He was a teacher who was obliged to guide their actions. It was a paradoxical situation.
Everything was unsettling to him. He was anxious to be caught by other Teachers while moving for T.Y.C. and Nam Soang. It was also disturbing that he might be found to have been involved in illegal activities that he had done so far and was kicked out of the academy.
‘d.a.m.n it!’
He should not have laid his hand on that money to begin with.
“Teacher, I heard you’re having a hard time financially these days.”
“Not really.”
“You don’t have to pretend. Our family has ears. It is not good to have you be financially difficult when you guide your students. It’s small amount, but take it.”
“What is this?”
“It’s a sign of my sincerity.”
“It’s too much of an amount to say you’re showing sincerity. I’d better not take this.”
“I know your wife is sick.”
“…!”
“I’ve heard that the price of medicine is going to be too high for your monthly salary. I don’t think this money will run short for your wife’s medical bills.”
“What do you want?”
“Haha, I don’t want anything.”
“Isn’t it strange that you’re willing to give me this amount and don’t want anything?”
“Well, it won’t be difficult, even if I want something. When my son comes of age this year, he must to go to Hwachun Clan. But it seems he doesn’t have enough points.”
“….”
In the end, Sung Kak got his hands on the money. The wife recovered, but fate was irreplaceable, as his wife later fell backwards and died. The death came one way or another.
But the unpleasant shackle followed Sung Kak. Nam Soang was at the place where he met the parent of the one who was given high score and allowed to join the Hwachun Clan. Nam Soang just smiled and spoke to him.
“Teacher, let’s just go easy way. Beneficial for both of us. How does it sound?”
Sung Kak was forced to accept Nam Soang’s offer. He threw his blade he was holding onto the floor.
*Cries.*
He missed his wife who left him.
‘What should I do? Tell me!’
Lu Churi, Third Year Student, was at the entrance of Bright Moon Building, the Residence. It was to watch the students taking the entrance examination but not to monitor if they are cheating.
It was just because he needed something to enjoy.
“Aaaaaah!”
Then two students rushed at him while screaming.
“What’s going on?”
