The Constellations Are My Disciples - Chapter 89
◈ Episode 89. Unbeknownst to Kim Joo-hyuk, (1)
in fact, there has been a lot of talk about Valhalla Academy recently.
The fact that the chairman of the world’s top three academies was suddenly replaced by the owner of the market, ‘Black Cat’.
Because that alone was enough room for words to come out.
However, even as associations, guilds, and even villain groups waited for Black Cat’s actions, he took no action.
That’s because in the first place, Black Cat simply acted as told by his constellation, the ‘master behind the scenes’, rather than moving with any beliefs.
Therefore, even now, a month and a half after becoming the chairman of the Academy, Black Cat has not shown any significant action.
instead.
[The ruler behind the scenes asks if it would be better to destroy the association right now.]
“You could do that, but it wouldn’t be a bother for no reason.”
Black Cat was trying to stop the master behind his constellation.
[The ruler behind the scenes says that we should just be patient and cut off all the guild guys who are hanging around Master.] “…
If we do that, there is a high probability that Kim Joo-hyuk will become even more bothersome.”
[The master behind the scenes asks if we can do it openly.]
“It’s probably still going to bother Kim Joo-hyuk.”
[The ruler behind the scenes asks how about burying the group of evildoers who had the audacity to spread the rumor that they would kill the teacher?] “We are currently investigating that
matter, so I would appreciate it if you could wait a little longer.”
[The ruler behind the scenes nods his head as if he is a little dissatisfied.]
“….”
After confirming that the Constellation’s notification window was no longer displayed, the ruler behind the scenes sighed in relief and sat back in his chair.
‘I’m dying…’
In fact, his work hasn’t changed much from before to now.
The same applies even if Valhalla Academy is created.
He only made decisions on a few small things and did nothing in particular.
Still, Black Cat was tired.
The reason is because of the ruler behind his own constellation.
‘Do people know about my actions that have saved the world more than 10 times?’
It’s not just an empty word, Black Cat actually saved the world, to be more precise, the lives of associations, guilds, and even evil groups running around somewhere about 10 times.
The reason is obviously because of the ruler behind the constellation.
‘…Master.’
After buying Valhalla Academy, Black Cat found out a little more about Kim Joo-hyuk’s relationship with his constellation’s hidden ruler.
Well, actually, Black Cat didn’t try to find out, but he only found out thanks to his constellation calling Kim Joo-hyuk “master” several times.
‘….’
Of course, I don’t know what is going on and how the ruler behind his constellation calls Kim Joo-hyuk as teacher.
However, what was truly amazing was that the relationship was not something distorted or caused by misunderstanding, but rather felt like a real relationship between a teacher and a student.
In fact, Kim Joo-hyuk treated the master behind the scenes as if he were his disciple.
‘What on earth is this?’
To be honest, when she first found out about this, Black Cat skipped the cause and process and only understood the result.
Because it seemed impossible for him to understand the cause and process anyway.
Master is an ordinary human being.
But the disciple is a constellation?
He gave up trying to understand their relationship because the logic just didn’t make sense.
‘Actually, even if I understand it, it won’t change the current situation.’
Anyway, Black Cat noticed the relationship between Kim Joo-hyuk and the master behind the scenes and was able to understand why her constellation treated Kim Joo-hyuk with contempt and took care of him a lot.
But recently.
‘…isn’t this too harsh?’
Personally, I was thinking that it might be a bit harsh.
No, I thought it was not a little severe, but a lot worse.
That’s because the behavior of the Constellation that Black Cat was looking at was a bit extreme even when he was watching it himself.
‘…They said let’s destroy the association for bothering Kim Joo-hyuk.’
Of course, Black Cat’s persuasion prevented the organization from being destroyed.
‘He said he would destroy the guild that Kim Joo-hyuk criticized.’
Of course, this was also prevented by Black Cat’s persuasion.
‘He said he would kill all the evildoers who were spreading rumors that they would kill Kim Joo-hyuk.’
Black Cat was also helping with this and looking for that information, but in any case, it was a bit surprising from Black Cat’s point of view that the Constellation was showing extremely extreme behavior towards someone who was bothering his teacher.
It’s as if, rather than generally treating one’s teacher,…
Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
While Black Cat was pondering this, the vibration of his smartphone made him stop thinking and pick it up.
“yes.”
[Nice to meet you, Black Cat. I think I contacted you last time to say hello.]
“I remember… you were the chairman of the Hero Academy?”
[Now that you remember, I don’t know what to do.]
Beck, Chairman of Hero Academy.
He remembered Beck’s name because he had been contacted through the Academy almost immediately after Black Cat took office as chairman.
“no. Rather, what happened…?”
[Ah, the reason I’m contacting you is because of the upcoming ‘World War.’ Is it possible to have a longer phone call?]
####
A little late in the evening.
Oh Se-hyuk, who got up from his sick bed and returned to school, stood in front of the physical training room built on one side of the Valhalla site and sighed.
“Whoa….”
There are two reasons why he came here.
The first was to say thank you to Kim Joo-hyuk.
If it weren’t for him, he would have been as good as dead, and instead of standing in Valhalla like this, he could have been in a coffin, or he could have been eaten by a monster and not even a body was left behind.
And the second reason is.
‘I ask to learn.’
It was to ask Kim Joo-hyuk to learn from him.
Oh Se-hyuk has never once thought of Kim Joo-hyuk as superior to him.
Even though he lost, he thought that with his talent, he could definitely beat Kim Joo-hyuk someday.
But no.
Kim Joo-hyuk was stronger than Oh Se-hyuk thought, and there were so many differences that it was considered strange to even compare the two in the first place.
In fact, Oh Se-hyuk was feeling it implicitly.
It’s just that his pride didn’t allow it.
However, what happened during this disaster allowed Oh Se-hyuk to put aside his pride and at the same time look at Kim Joo-hyuk once again.
And I also came to admire him.
‘….’
Oh Se-hyuk closed his eyes and remembered that moment.
The moment when Kim Joo-hyuk’s sword was drawn naturally.
The moment when dozens and hundreds of monsters running towards him all met the same death, regardless of their level or elevation.
The more Oh Se-hyuk remembered that moment, the more goosebumps he felt.
That static yet overwhelming inaction was the image of a true strongman that Oh Se-hyuk imagined and wanted to become one day.
Therefore, as soon as Oh Se-hyuk was discharged from the hospital, he heard that Kim Joo-hyuk would be training until the evening and came to thank Kim Joo-hyuk and at the same time ask for a favor.
“Whoa.”
Another sigh.
Although he was just entering the training room, Oh Se-hyuk felt a little nervous, so he carefully opened the door to the training room and entered.
“….”
It was only then that Oh Se-hyuk realized that the training room was empty.
‘Did I come too late…’
Only then did Oh Se-hyuk realize that it was a little after 11 o’clock, and he tried to close the door to come back tomorrow.
Seup.
“…?”
Soon, Oh Se-hyuk tilted his head at the sound of a voice coming from somewhere, and then unconsciously walked towards the place where he heard the shallow sound.
I don’t even know why, but I muffled the sound of my footsteps…
That’s when Oh Se-hyuk arrived at the lounge inside the training room. Sehyuk
Oh
heard the voice again and opened the door without realizing it.
and.
“…?!”
“…s…eup?”
Oh Se-hyuk was able to see Yan Lang.
“….”
“….”
Oh Se-hyuk knew Yan Lang.
She was a student with Kim Joo-hyuk and was already well-known among Valhalla students.
Even if she didn’t attend class, she had already become quite a celebrity just by walking around with Kim Joo-hyuk, so Oh Se-hyuk could naturally say hello.
…If it weren’t for this delicate situation.
“….”
Oh Se-hyuk looked at Yan Lang, who had a blank expression.
Then he looked at the towel Yan Lang was holding in his hand.
I also saw that the towel was attached to Yan Lang’s face.
Of course, if you just look at this description, you might think this.
Ah, now that the training is over, I’m going to clean up the training room, turn off all the lights, and then go out and wipe my sweat in this secluded place!
Of course, it was all put together in a way, but it could still be understood at this level.
However, what if we added the description that the towel Yan Lang is holding is stuck to her mouth and nose?
Additionally, what if the sound Oh Se-hyuk heard was the sound of someone taking a breath?
“….”
“….”
A long silence continues.
Oh Se-hyuk was trying hard to find something to say in that suffocating silence.
Should I say it like this?
No, like that?
no. How on earth should he talk about this…
His mind was filled with confusion.
however.
“Did you see it?”
Soon Oh Se-hyuk felt goosebumps as he heard a clear voice in his ears.
“Did you see it?”
“….”
He immediately looked at Yan Lang.
Yan Lang was looking at him with eyes that had somehow lost their highlight.
and.
“I didn’t see it-”
“I saw it.”
“No, that-”
“You saw it.”
“…I saw-”
“Right? “Did you see it?”
At the end of that conversation.
“die.”
Oh Se-hyuk lost consciousness due to the heavy blow he felt on his buttocks.
So the next day.
Kim Joo-hyuk, who was training for the day as usual, was able to see Oh Se-hyuk who came to visit him.
“Thank you very much. “If it weren’t for you, I would really be dead.”
“Uh…uh okay.”
Kim Joo-hyuk nods his head with a very nervous expression.
Of course.
“Hey you… “Didn’t you say you went to the hospital?”
This was because the face of Oh Se-hyuk that Kim Joo-hyuk was currently looking at was so completely shattered that it could never be said to be the face of an ordinary person.
“okay.”
“But why is your face like that?”
“It rolled.”
“…I rolled?”
Kim Joo-hyuk looked at Oh Se-hyuk’s face.
No matter how you look at it, its face doesn’t look healthy.
Kim Joo-hyuk was curious and asked because it was something that could not possibly be rolled over.
“…no, no matter how you look at it-”
“It rolled.”
“No-”
“I rolled.”
“I got hit-”
“I rolled.”
“…Oh yeah.”
For some reason, Kim Joo-hyuk couldn’t help but nod as if he understood the sorrowful feeling in his eyes.
Oh Se-hyuk quietly turned his gaze to see Yan Lang looking at him while running at full speed.
