I went to school for nothing (66)
Lesson 14. Level Force – 4
We played and ate happily.
When the time is up, the group of Ban Yu-Won, who returned to the plaza, decided to end Tike’s shooting mode and take a break.
While students everywhere were talking lively, only the first class of the first year was stagnant in a gloomy mood, probably because their leader, Ortima, is now returning to his hometown to receive treatment.
“Aren’t you going to Aire?”
“After all, Class 1 and Class 11 will return together.”
If there was someone who could replace Ortima in class 1, it would be Aire, who had charm and charisma equal to him, and skills that surpassed him, but she was with the Rebellion members who were the culprits who hurt Ortima.
Ortima was injured while trying to save Class 11, but Aire was also taken away by Class 11!
As if most of the class 1 students were seriously thinking the absurd idea, the occasional glare could not be so cruel.
The problem is that among them, there are also adult gazes that are not mature.
“Hey Aire. Professor Cantone keeps looking this way. It looks like lasers will come out of your eyes.”
“I hate that man. It’s dark and sinister.”
“Because we hate him too…”
We know that the power that Cantone gave off slowed the movement of the half-yuwon party, causing them to be sucked into the dungeon without resistance, but
… Because of that, Yumina couldn’t even question him.
If it hadn’t been for dealing with the Ortima family, the chancellor might have personally cracked down on Cantone, so he could be considered lucky in many ways.
But he is glaring at them like that, whether or not he knows that he has luckily escaped charges.
‘Professor Yumina said something like this wouldn’t happen in the future… but it can’t be guaranteed. There’s no law saying that Cantone doesn’t want to mess around.’
Even in the best academy in all dimensions, there are only nine full professors, and it is questionable whether a person risking his fate just because he wants to get rid of obtrusive students, but we must not forget that he has already done something similar.
So he had to get stronger faster.
So that no matter who digs any trap, you can easily jump over it…!
“Yuwon, look here.”
Maybe she wanted to get away from the gloomy topic, but Ruchel checked her mirror and sang Banyuwon.
She was the most stylishly dressed of the group, so the way she operated the mirror like a smartphone looked quite natural.
“There is a separate bulletin board where only the fan club members who really follow the academy students gather.”
“huh?”
“Where where… Ah.”
Ruchel opened Union Net’s integrated community bulletin board screen.
As Ban Yu-Won approached her, Light clung to him from behind, but when he realized that they were too close, he jumped off.
Ban Yu-won said it was absurd.
“You can see it as yours.”
“I’m not good at that.”
“The other dimension information is crisp, but strangely weak in that part…”
I had no choice but to raise the image above the mirror so that Light could see it a little bigger, and the three put their heads together to check the bulletin board.
“Unity Phoenix Revival Survivor… Ah, that was the team name, not the fan club name? Then we and the other students have similar naming senses.”
As most of the extracurricular activities were conducted in groups, it seemed that the other students, like Rebellion, decided on a team name that symbolized them.
However, usually that time is around the 2nd or 3rd year, when the team composition has been established (most students say that they find the best team by changing the team composition every time they are roasted in the tower).
Because the members of class 11 are from the special screening, they can’t afford to change teams, so they die, but they have to go together like this!
“What are you talking about, Ban? I think Rebellion is a pretty great name. Of course, there seems to be a denial of the existing system at the base of the riots, so it’s a little bit… but still.”
“Yuwon has a list of promising teams and their fan clubs.”
Ignoring Wright for talking, Ruchel called him.
Looking at the list of fan clubs that seemed to number well over a dozen, Ban Yoo-won was impressed.
“There are quite a few fan clubs centered around seniors in the 4th and 5th grade.”
“Well, even if you group only five people into one team, dozens will come out in a grade. Rather, if you think about it that way, it seems that the number is small.”
“Most of the members are only in the tens or hundreds at most. Compared to Level Force, everything is pretty.”
Ban Yu-won naturally nodded at Aneri’s words, showing pride in the fan club she belongs to.
“Definitely…”
All of their fan clubs seemed to lack the number of members or cohesiveness compared to Rebellion’s fan club, Level Force.
How can they beat Rebellion without an official introduction video?
…but wait a minute.
“Aneri, haven’t you gone yet?”
“Your special activities aren’t over yet!”
Aneri is looking into the mirror over Ruchel’s back, unable to come close to Ban Yu-Won, perhaps because of the firmly arranged order.
Ban Yu-won looked at his watch and was able to confirm that there was still a little bit of time left before the assembly time.
It really seems like they’re trying to stick together until the moment they leave this dimension.
“What the hell do you mean by saying that something like this helps you climb the tower…”
“Mr. Ban Yu-won, you didn’t just look at me and say ‘something like this’, did you?”
“Of course not.”
“I believed in you!”
In fact, half right and half wrong.
Banyuwon was talking about the awareness itself formed at the external level.
I’ll admit I benefited from that in a case like this one, but what does that have to do with the tower?
“Did Professor Yumina really say that?”
“Because it is.”
“Hmm… There is a saying that it is the power of the tower to connect countless dimensions and enable communication. If so, wouldn’t it be natural for what happened in the connected dimension to affect the tower?”
Even Dokgo-yeon, who had pretended not to be interested, was helping Ban Yu-won with a word while looking in the mirror.
When Ban Yuyuan heard her words, something came to mind.
‘Connecting countless dimensions to enable communication… I feel similar to the ability of my ancestors. In other words, it is inevitable that the Tower of Babel has such abilities.’
Integrating all languages means enabling everyone to communicate.
Wouldn’t it be possible to think of connecting all dimensions as an extension of that?
Even more, the name of the dimension where the Tower of Babel is now is Union.
It is no coincidence that the word meaning unification became the name of the dimension.
‘What if the Tower of Babel standing still is actually the key to connecting all dimensions? Then, of course, the things we caused in other dimensions could affect the tower!’
Finally, the complicated thoughts were neatly organized.
Ban Yu-won wanted to hug Dok-go-yeon, who gave him a decisive hint, but it was clear that he would get hit, so instead, he held Ruchel’s hand and shook it up and down.
She wasn’t surprised and smiled kindly.
“Did anything good happen to you?”
“Yeah, I guess.”
“Hey, I’m so glad you did.”
“…What is it? Looking at it from a fan’s point of view, it’s a bit strange to see the two of them creating a sweet atmosphere. Please put me in and make it a harem.”
“I think a harem starts with four people.”
Surprisingly, Aneri was delighted and clung to Banyuwon, who responded with the same nonsense to Aneri’s nonsense.
“Then I just need to save two more people besides me!”
“No, I was wrong. stop it. … No, by the way.”
Ban Yu-won, who stopped Aneri from entering the fan club’s official website and writing an article at any moment, said to her mirror (I didn’t buy it from Union, so it’s natural, but the design was very different. ) I was taken aback when I saw the homepage screen that popped up.
Unlike other students’ fan clubs, not only the bulletin board but also the fact that a separate fan cafe was created was within the expected category.
However, I was thrilled to see that the number of members of the fan cafe exceeded 100,000.
At the same time, there was a question that arose.
“Aneri, I mentioned earlier that the number of people who can access Union Net is limited.”
“aha. Are you curious about the connection conditions for Union Net?”
It was good to pretend.
Banyuwon nodded, and Aneri kindly explained.
“First of all, most of us who are qualified to cross dimensions have access to Union Net. Other than that… As you move from the lower dimension to the higher dimension, there are a lot of people who have access, and it tends to be concentrated in the strong and high-status tiers.”
“It’s a very easy-to-read logic of power.”
As discussed earlier, if the Tower of Babel controls the Union Net, it is natural that the distribution of access rights follows the logic of power.
Ban Yu-won shook his head, but Aneri lowered his voice for no reason and whispered.
“I found out while infiltrating here, but it seems that only the top 1% of humanity can access the Union Net on this side. Still, this is quite a lot for a lower dimension.”
“Then another…”
―Everyone gathers.
Zenon’s gathering spirit fell at the very timing when he was about to ask about the case of another lower dimension.
Soon after, Yumina also appeared by their side.
“You worked hard Aneri. It would be nice to have another request later.”
“Oops… If you call me for something related to Rebellion, I’ll give you 20% DC! 50% if Ban Yu-won calls for you! And…”
Aneri, who had let out a sad sigh until the end, had no choice but to withdraw aesthetically… and winked at Dokgoyeon.
“Dokgoyeon-nim, cheer up too! In my opinion, there are still many chances!”
“…?”
Dok-go-yeon’s pupils of the cross widened in a rare way at her cheering, which she did not know the meaning of, and he was embarrassed.
However, even when he tried to ask what it meant, Aneri’s figure, which had taken a backward step, was soon lost in the crowd.
Dokgoyeon was even more surprised.
“Did you get out of my senses in an instant…?”
“After all, they are dimensional mercenaries. Their level is high. She specializes in stealth operations, so her looks and stealth skills are more outstanding than her fighting power, but she is a talented person who works at the highest level without difficulty.”
Mi-na Yu smiles and explains to Dok-go-yeon, who is shocked.
Ruchel gnashed his teeth, which was rare.
“Maybe that woman was looking after me too.”
“That’s right, I couldn’t read all the concepts of that woman until the end…”
At first, I had a lot of doubts, but in the end, he was a very nice person who was overly affectionate.
Even in the middle of the chaos, he even exchanged mirror codes with Ban Yu-Won, so it was good to say that he had an ally he could trust and rely on in times of emergency.
Along with the connection with Aire, it can be said to be the biggest reward from this special activity.
“Dimensional mercenaries…”
“Now it’s our turn to climb. let’s go.”
Yumina pushed the shoulders of Ban Yuwon, who was lost in thought.
Judging from the fact that he was speaking casually, it seemed like everyone in the party had already gone inside.
“a little… The end is futile.”
“It’s empty, look behind you?”
Instead of stepping into the hole in the air with Yumina, I glanced back at her words.
As if the gathering place was a plaza for no reason, I saw countless soldiers gathered in the same appearance as when they first came here.
“thank you!”
“Long live Union Academy!”
“goodbye…!”
“I will remember salvation for the rest of my life!”
Its members will never be the same as it was a few days ago.
Not a few soldiers were sacrificed along with the monsters in the baptism of authority that the academy professors intemperately poured out.
The crisis that they couldn’t overcome on their own might someday grow back like a weed that couldn’t be rooted out and choke them.
Even so, they are cheering like that.
No matter what, the dimension persisted and survived.
Not only the faculty members, but also the students as if they were treating God—praising them.
’―Is it only natural that everyone becomes arrogant like this? I have to take care of myself before I become like them.’
Ban Yu-won rose to the dimension line with a bitter realization.
The special activities that made me realize in many ways about the relationship between Union and the other dimension… Really, in many ways, ended like that.
* * *
―The Empress declares to break the sword!
―What has changed from last year when you strongly expressed your intention to participate in the Olympics? Empress Yumi Ban suddenly announces her retirement!
Olympic Gold Medalist Rising fencing powerhouse.
A true monster in name and reality who competed in both the foil and saber events in fencing, which is difficult to break even one line, and won gold medals in both individual events.
The news of Empress Yumi Ban’s early retirement shocked and troubled many domestic fans who were even a little interested in fencing
. Foil saber players were particularly shocked.
It was for that reason that she gathered all her close players and shot Hanwoo.
“Are you really going to quit? Yes, my sister won as many medals as her daughter, but what should we do?”
“I’m sorry, but I can’t help it because it’s a foul if I leave the game.”
Who would have known that just by awakening one’s magical power, one’s body would continue to grow stronger?
Muttering the inexplicable words in her mind, Yumi Ban shrugged.
In the first place, for her, fencing was just a means to become stronger, so there was no big hesitation in deciding to retire.
“Are you really getting married? So are you retiring?”
“AC, what is marriage at my age of 22?”
“That’s right, sister. This bitch’s phone wallpaper is still her little brother.”
“That breaks me a bit…”
“It breaks me a lot…”
“Don’t you think your younger brother is gross?”
“But why didn’t you introduce us? Apparently, I asked for an introduction the other day.”
“Baby really.”
Ban Yu-mi said as she pushed away with one arm the players who kept bothering to stick around, and now subtly pushed away the players who were greedy for her younger brother.
“I’m not getting married, and don’t introduce me to my sister. Where are you greedy?”
“Look how determined you are.”
“Yumi, are you going to live with your little brother for the rest of your life? uh? Do you know how easy it is to keep a medalist as your sister-in-law?”
“I don’t know, I just got a call, everyone go away.”
I shot even Korean beef, but I’m sure you’ll understand after eating in moderation.
Yumi Ban pushed people away and checked her phone.
It was an ordinary text.
Only the sender’s name was broken and I couldn’t see it.
I waited for a while to see if it was sent by my younger brother, but isn’t this spam?
Ban Yu-mi clicked her tongue and read the contents.
“what is this. …Announcement of Earth-level evolution and advance access to Union Net?”
