I Became a Professor at the Academy

186 – hide and seek (4)

“I will change the contents of the practical skill.”

At midnight, exactly the moment the day changed, Baek Woo-jin appeared and spoke to Hana Baek and the students.

“Since you all read the announcement, you should know the approximate situation.”

The students nodded quickly without answering. It looked the same as usual, but the students instinctively felt it. Baek Woo-jin is in a bad mood.

For that reason, the students, rather than asking questions, thought to nod unconditionally no matter what Baek Woo-jin told them to do.

“One hundred and one people. A number excluding you. It’s also the number of crazy people who say they don’t care if they die inside.”

Klopp.

Lim Kyung-soo, who was holding a new shield in more numbers than he thought, swallowed dry saliva.

“One hundred and one.”

“Yes. professor.”

Baek Ha-na, who is more sensitive to Baek Woo-jin than anyone else, responded to Baek Woo-jin’s sharper voice with a more serious attitude than playfulness.

“Take it.”

A map folded on many sides flew through the air and was held in a hundred hands.

“It is the terrain inside the rift.”

Sararak.

Baek Ha-na spread the map on the floor, much larger than he thought. At the same time, the attention of the students standing behind Hana Baek also turned to the map.

“Monsters do not exist inside the rift. Well, there may be some wild animals, but they are not at a level that poses a threat to the Awoken, so you don’t have to worry about them.”

The students, who were carefully looking at the map as long as Lim Kyung-soo, quickly raised their heads and focused on Baek Woo-jin again.

“three days. Drop eighty-eight people in it. You can destroy the base camp, and a token to give to them.”

Baek Woo-jin took out a silver necklace and showed it to the students.

“You may destroy the one worn around your neck. Don’t care if your opponent gets hurt or dies in the process. It is said not to choose the means and methods. If you fail, we will kick you out by the number you lack, so it’s better not to give unnecessary recognition.”

Some people with good intuition expected that a picture like this would be roughly drawn, but I never dreamed that I would even hear that it was okay to kill casually.

If another professor had made such a remark, they would have thought it was to instill tension, but no one here knew all too well that their professor was not a joker.

So I couldn’t easily nod my head.

Except for just two.

Baek Ha-na and Nam Seo-hee, confident of easily overpowering anyone, nodded their heads without worrying.

“Baek Ha-na, Nam Seo-hee.”

“Yes. professor.”

“Yes. professor.”

At Baek Woo-jin’s call, the two girls looked up at him with firm faces and answered.

“If there is a failure in the process of achieving the goal, the responsibility lies with the two of you.”

“All right.”

“also.”

Baek Woo-jin’s gaze, which was heading toward Baek Ha-na and Nam Seo-hee, turned to the five people behind him.

“You should not rely on these two and do your best to achieve the goal I set for you.”

“”Yes!!””

Five responded with a lot of strength.

“Come right in after the status check.”

That was the last conversation between the students and Baek Woo-jin.

**

“What… … .”

Baek Ha-na stared down at Lee Na-yeong, who passed out in her arms, and scratched her cheek.

In fact, Baek Ha-na’s discovery of Lee Na-young was purely coincidental.

In order to hunt as efficiently as possible with the fastest mobility and an extraordinary mind that learns maps in an instant, Hana Baek acted separately from the party with the concept of a detached unit.

In fact, along the hidden road marked on the map, he quickly ran through the snowy field, destroyed two base camps and broke six necklaces. He single-handedly eliminated more than 10 people before the day had passed.

Nevertheless, Baek Ha-na, who still had enough stamina, moved in search of new prey, taking advantage of the night when her movement was a little more free, rather than resting.

And based on the map I had in my head, I found this cave that was closest to my current location and at the same time it looked like people were hiding, and found Lee Na-young, who was rushing out of there by accident.

“This is all because of you.”

Baek Hana grumbled slightly as she glared at the compass pointing in an unknown direction.

The original plan was to quietly hide, follow, and surprise everyone. But suddenly, the compass pointed in the direction she was in, and Lee Na-young, feeling something strange, was about to shout out loud.

So, in a panic, she quickly came downstairs and covered Na-young’s mouth, and Lee Na-young, who met her eyes with a surprised look, turned her pure eyes upside down and passed out.

Besides, in the process, even though they were close friends, they saw things they shouldn’t have seen.

“Um… … .”

Baek Ha-na, who had been thinking for a moment, stood up while holding the fainting Lee Na-young in her arms.

Even if he apologized later, he thought that the first thing to do was to fix the clothes before his precious friend wakes up.

Baek Ha-na, who quietly moved into the darkness, soon cracked and cracked! I was able to find a bonfire burning with a pleasant sound and Na Yeon-ju sitting next to it.

“Ah, let’s go… … ?”

Na Yeon-ju, who had been waiting patiently while sipping on a citron-flavored potion, greeted In-young as she appeared in the dark, then froze. It was because the clothes were revealing little by little and the physique was not Lee Na-young’s. But don’t be nervous for a moment.

“One, one, one… … ?”

“Shhh.”

Facing Na Yeon-joo, who opened her mouth with her eyes wide open, Baek Ha-na held her long, fine index finger to her lips and asked her to be quiet.

“Oh, huh.”

There was no need to do that, but Na Yeon-joo quickly covered her mouth with both hands and nodded quickly.

“You are suffering.”

“Huh, huh… … .”

Na Yeon-ju, who kept her mouth shut, immediately opened her mouth wide and showed her emotions as Baek Ha-na stroked her hair.

“Let’s talk a little later, where is Nayoung and Jim?”

“Ah, that, we used the gym bag in common… … It’s not in that tent over there.”

“ah… … yes… ?”

Baek Ha-na made a slightly troubled expression, then shook her head from side to side and sat Lee Na-young in the empty seat.

He had a great sense of smell and noticed it, but because of the protective gear, it wasn’t obvious from the outside, so Baek Ha-na just changed his direction to pretend he didn’t know anything.

“You said you were participating here because you were busy these days.”

“hehehehe… … .”

At Baek Ha-na’s question, Na Yeon-ju awkwardly scratched her head. It was because it was true that he hid it with the intention of showing up in the classroom later to surprise him.

“By the way, why is Hana-sister here?”

“I want to know?”

Na Yeon-joo trembled at Baek Ha-na’s gaze, which gradually narrowed.

“Oh no… … .”

“It’s a joke.”

Baek Ha-na approached Na Yeon-joo, who was completely withdrawn, with a light smile.

“Don’t be too nervous.”

“Ah, yes, yes… … .”

Baek Ha-na’s behavior as usual, but different from usual, made Na Yeon-ju swallow her saliva without even realizing it. And I blinked my eyes at the sound of ‘click’.

“Ha, Hana sister?”

Na Yeon-joo finds the silver necklace in Baek Ha-na’s hand and stares blankly at Baek Ha-na with bewildered eyes.

“I’ll hold you for a moment.”

“Ah, ah… … .”

Why does it remind me of a mitten that was said to be borrowed for a short time in the past and has yet to be returned?

“If nothing special happens, I’ll come back to you on the last day, so don’t be so mean. Do you trust your sister?”

If you eliminate 88 in time, they will come back to you. Unless you’re really unlucky.

“Ooh, uh… … .”

Na Yeon-ju looked at Baek Ha-na with the face of a woman who had lost her heart.

“Well, even if you look at it that way, I can’t give it back right now.”

Although Baek Ha-na’s heart was shaken for a moment at the hurt gaze of her only younger sister, she managed to calm herself down because she couldn’t give up on something precious.

Click.

Subsequently, Hana Baek left Na Yeon-ju, who was crying, and retrieved the necklace from Lee Na-young’s neck. And to retrieve the things of the two friends who fell asleep without knowing they came, they pulled up the tent’s blackout.

Whoaaa!!

“Wow?!”

Na Yeon-joo screamed as she covered her eyes with her hands at the holy light that burst from the tent.

“die!!”

At the same time, Idni’s fist flew towards Baek Ha-na’s face.

A perfect surprise that hides its presence.

The problem was that the opponent was one hundred and one.

“It’s too much to die.”

Hana Baek, who lightly avoided Idni’s fist by twisting her head slightly, glared at Idni’s flustered face with slightly wounded eyes.

“No, fuck… … .”

A blinding light burst out, so why are you keeping your eyes open?

Edni’s eyes were asking like that.

“huh.”

However, the only thing that came back was a half-gloved fist with a pouty snort.

“Ouch… … .”

“It’s tough.”

Idney, who had a bluish bruise on her left eye, wrinkled her face and glared at the culprit who made her eyes like this.

And Maria, who was watching it from the side, sighed and shook her head.

“Did I say no? Jane Moore’s light couldn’t even do one, so how could it be us?”

“… It’s me who got hit, so why don’t you be quiet?”

“It’s self-employed.”

“right. It was Id’s fault for attacking first.”

Idni didn’t respond to Maria and Baekhana’s attack and just closed her eyes tightly.

“So you’re saying that if you take care of eighty-eight people, they’ll come back to us?”

“yes. I’ve dealt with about fifteen now. Seohui is also moving, so there must have been 20 of them.”

“I see.”

Maria nodded and thought for a moment. And after a while, I woke up from my thoughts and called the name of the youngest.

“Are you playing? Where is the compass?”

“Ah, Nayoung unnie took it with her… … .”

Naturally, their eyes turned to Hana Baek.

“Is this it?”

“yes. That’s it.”

Baekhana held it out and said.

“Originally, I was going to surprise you, but it suddenly pointed in the direction I was in, so I was even more surprised.”

“yes?”

Maria could see that the compass arrow was pointing in a completely different direction.

Squeak.

And as soon as I got the compass from Baek Ha-na, I saw the arrow pointing back again.

“Also… … .”

Maria concentrated, gripping her compass tightly.

Seruk.

Then the compass turned again and this time pointed to Baekhana. In response, Maria handed it back to Baekhana with a confident face.

“I think this might help.”

“this?”

“yes. If you hold it and wish hard for what you are looking for, it will tell you where it is.”

Hana Baek handed over the compass again with slightly surprised eyes.

Squeak.

Again, the arrow moved.

Baek Hana looked in that direction for a moment, then closed her eyes.

Seruk.

It wasn’t long before the arrow moved again.

Baek Ha-na, hoping for the location of the second closest base camp to where she is now, turned around with a compass in her hand.

“I’ll check to see if it’s real.”
