Lesson 2. This is your housemate – 1
Professor Yumina was as kind as she was beautiful and taught the classmates who knew nothing about the academy the basics of the academy step by step.
To begin with, it was Union Academy’s student selection system, not the professors, that drew Banyuwon to this place.
Union Academy’s student selection system targeted all levels and selected students who met the necessary conditions and automatically provided a form of evaluation suitable for the student.
Therefore, the professors learned the name of the planet ‘Earth’ for the first time today, and seemed quite surprised that Ban Yu-Won came from a lower dimension where Union Academy was not even known.
After seeing the Tower of Babel, Yu-Won Ban, who had already cleared away his vengeance, decided not to care about it anymore, but Professor Yumina, who did not know that, told him various things to ease his mood.
‘Is that an artifact made by a semi-amusement student? It’s amazing. Even though the power contained in it is terrible… Still, it’s an offensive artifact that shows completely autonomous movements. Oh my gosh, can you even feel the ego? Huhu I really look forward to the future development of the semi-yuwon students.’
‘You want to go back to your hometown before the entrance ceremony? Hmm, since the half-yuwon student said he was unaware of the existence of Union Academy… I get it. I’ll give you special permission.’
‘Ah, I just heard that other lower-level special admission candidates have passed the evaluation. There are four of us, including Yuwon Ban. You’ll be sharing a room with one of them.’
‘Then go back to the semi-fun student room and tear up this paper when you’re done. You will be able to return to your hometown. I will make a summons request on the day of the entrance ceremony, so please respond after all preparations are complete.’
When Ban Yu-won returned to the room after the interview with her, another person was already there.
“Who are you!”
The moment he noticed Ban Yu-Won’s presence, a handsome man drew a shining sword out of the air and aimed it at himself.
If it had only been half a day ago, he would have been shocked and collapsed, but Ban Yu-Won, who had already been dealing with goblins and between life and death, was no longer surprised to the point of holding a knife in front of his eyes.
In fact, even before that, the goblin’s bat reacted and blocked it in the air.
“Don’t you know what you’re wearing? students here. your roommate.”
“ah? Ahhh. Excuse me. I was nervous because I was taking a practical evaluation a while ago…”
The man, who grasped the situation at Ban Yu-Won’s calm explanation, realized his mistake, hurriedly retrieved the sword, and bowed his head to Ban Yu-Won in apology.
He has a somewhat impatient personality, but he doesn’t seem to be someone who doesn’t know manners.
As long as the admission was confirmed, the character of the person living together was also important, but at this level, it seemed that there was no need to worry too much.
“I heard that you are also a special type of lower dimension.”
“hmm? Oh you no you’re big… You’re from a lower dimension too.”
“Half-yuwon. Feel free to call me by name.”
At first, I was going to go home right away… but before that, I decided that it would be better to have a little talk with the person who will be living together.
“what? by name? no you can’t I wish you half well. I am as light, not as light. You can call me Light… Okay.”
Judging from how shocked they were to be called by their first names, it seemed that it was very rude to call each other by their first names in Wright’s world.
Ban Yu-won, recognizing the difference in culture, observed the appearance of his colleague As Light, who will be living in the same room in the future.
Maybe it was because he had just finished his practical evaluation, but his body was full of filth, but he was still handsome.
‘I didn’t think I’d look good anywhere, but… He just fills me with energy when I look at him.’
A slender, small face, sharp, deeply sparkling blue eyes, and blonde waves draping from her shoulders.
From the high pointed nose to the delicately sparkling lips, all the attractive elements were hammered in, so her beauty was so perfect that it felt a bit artificial.
Without the slightest exaggeration, he looks like a prince who jumped out of a romance manga.
‘No, do I have to describe the man’s beauty like this? It’s really annoying.’
So I quit.
I asked him instead.
“You said you just finished your practical evaluation? So, did you come to fight the blind goblins too?”
“what? A blind goblin?”
However, an unexpected response came back.
“No it can’t be. Even a soldier with basic education can easily hunt such low-level monsters in Korea. I was dealing with trolls and ogres. Thanks to that, I’m very tired from running through the swamp for hours. after.”
…trolls and ogres?
I can’t judge by taking the knowledge in the game as it is, but no matter how much I think about it, I think it’s much better than the goblins…?!
Ban Yu-won, who was unable to respond to the answer returned from the other party, only opened his mouth.
It was only then that something caught my eye: the goblin’s bat that blocked Light’s sword.
It was hanging limply on Banyuwon’s shoulder, and it seemed that he had used up all his strength, or demon power, to block Light’s sword.
This is still the artifact that split the goblin warrior’s head off!
“is it. Then, are you a special ability type? I guess so. The artifact that just blocked my sword was also unusual.”
Light nodded as if he noticed something after seeing the puzzled half-yuwon.
“I’m not good enough in other conditions, including my birth dimension, but I’m confident in my combat power. The entrance condition was to pass the practical test, which is a higher level than the general screening.”
“I see…”
I thought all of the lower level special screenings were for students with less power than the normal screenings, but it seems that there are other cases.
Hearing that he was a special type of a lower dimension like himself, he couldn’t help but feel sorry for himself who felt a little sympathy for this inhumanly beautiful man!
“Hey Van! don’t die like that After all, we all entered this academy to receive a proper education and grow, right?”
“Yes, it is.”
Light, noticing that Banyuwon’s spirits had died, cared about him and told him.
He even has the right personality!
There is only one factor to win: language skills.
But I couldn’t brag about how great my ability was, and I didn’t want to do it unseemly.
Banyuwon, who could not stand it any longer, quickly decided to retreat.
“You said you were tired from going through the swamp. wash and rest Actually, I decided to go back to my hometown for a while before the entrance ceremony. See you at the entrance ceremony.”
“what? You gave me permission to go back to my hometown while I was waiting for admission? The academy side?”
“huh? Ah yes.”
“Unbelievable.”
I thought it was no big deal, but Light had the most surprised expression since meeting him.
“Ban, you seem to have really great abilities. To think that the professors of the academy, who have high standards, would grant such convenience to students who entered through the special screening process at the lower level…” ”
…is this really that great?”
“Haha, don’t you know how great that is? How much the beings of the upper dimension look down on and ignore the lower dimension, and it’s like a god… Haven’t you ever experienced such a territorial attitude through exchanges between dimensions?”
The look on Wright’s face when he said that was bitter.
Ban Yu-won replied in an awkward manner.
“Sorry, I just realized today for the first time that I’m in a lower dimension or a higher dimension. I don’t even know what the hell is so great about a higher dimension.”
“Yeah, even the resources and knowledge you can have from birth are different… What? Did you know for the first time today?!”
“Oh, was there such a difference? But let’s talk about the details later. I was brought in for a performance evaluation without even telling my parents, so I think I should go back.”
“That’s right. okay.”
“then.”
Ban Yu-won took out the paper the professor handed to him earlier and tore it up.
The power of space movement, which was invoked without the slightest delay, moved him to Earth, the world he originally lived in.
Leaving only the handsome man with a bewildered expression on his face.
* * *
“What a surprise! Yuwon Ban, where did you go? I thought you were so happy that you just ran out…”
Now that he has finally returned to his familiar room, the one in front of him is his sister Ban Yu-mi.
Wearing a saggy sleeveless T-shirt and hot pants, the image of him roaming on the bed in his room and reading a comic book was unmistakably a swan.
“Why are you doing this in my room?”
“You can’t spill cookie crumbs on the bed in my room.”
“get out. go away.”
Come to think of it, there is an empty snack bag rolling on the floor.
The crumbs must be scattered and rustling like flower petals on the bed.
Ban Yu-Won sighed and tried to kick his sister, but she quickly rolled around and avoided it before she could.
Of course, Ban Yu-Won also knew how to avoid it and made a radical move.
That’s also because she is a student at H Physical University, the most prestigious in Korea.
It is also a national team fencer preparing for the Olympics as an active player.
But the active fencer jumped up the next moment and said to him.
“Hey Ban Yu-won.”
“Don’t use weird language.”
“No, not kidding. Have you suddenly changed?”
Ban Yumi’s eyes flashed sharply.
Ban Yu-won replied, glaring at her with pitiful eyes, asking if she knew that only now.
“Can’t you see the clothes that cover me with splendor? This oppa has changed from a growth phase to an evolving level to maturity. You can’t do me anymore.”
“It’s no good dog…horns!”
Ban Yu-mi, holding her hand like a sword, attacked.
At that moment, Ban Yu-won moved to the side of Ban-bo and lightly dodged her attack, raising his hand and stabbing her.
However, she reacted quickly and turned around, so she couldn’t hit it. Instead, the next moment, she recognized a sharp blade from the right and swung her hand away.
“No… what is it? What is it really?”
All of the attacks were blocked, and although he managed to avoid it, he even came up with a sharp counterattack.
Ban Yu-mi, dumbfounded by her brother’s counterattack, sat down on the bed, and Ban Yu-won said calmly.
“listen.”
“say it.”
“Actually, I thought that noona, you weren’t from my family until now, right?”
“I’m dying, really.”
Ban Yu-won grabbed his sister’s hand as it quickly flew by and continued.
“But it turns out that I have a similar talent lying dormant.”
“No, can this be explained by talent? How many years have I wielded the sword!”
Ban Yu-mi was born as a monster with a tin head and a body that was unsuitable for the Ban family, where there are many people who live off their hair.
Since I was young, I was good at doing anything with my body, but under the savage taste of holding a weapon and beating people, I thought about my way between kendo and fencing, and finally decided on fencing to go to the Olympics in my 3rd year of middle school.
However, kendo continues to do so consistently, and in the midst of that, he is a monster who returned with three gold medals and one silver medal in the team and individual events at the last Olympics.
So, seeing her from a young age, Ban Yu-won thought that she was definitely not from my family, but when he entered the dungeon this time, he found that he had a fighting talent similar to hers.
It’s just that I didn’t know until now because I didn’t wake up unless it was a very big stimulus like a life-threatening crisis.
‘And now Swordsmanship 3 has been added to it.’
However, as he himself knew, he could not go beyond the level of an Olympic athlete.
We still have a long, long way to go before we can proudly claim ownership of the Tower of Babel, to surpass monsters like Wright.
“Half-yuwon! So what happened!”
“Noisy! Rather, let’s have a family meeting.”
Ban Yu-Won declared as he pushed his sister, who was struggling with the force of almost devouring him.
“He is trying to climb onto the top of my sister’s head just because he blocked my hand once.”
“hurry.”
“Use it, if it’s not a big deal, I’m really lost.”
While shocked by Ban Yu-won’s one-sided words, Ban Yu-mi obediently went out of his room and took out her phone.
I thought that my younger brother had really gone through something in the past half a day and was trying to tell me about it at the family meeting.
Ban Yu-won shouted at her sister’s back as she left the room.
“Call your sister and grandfather too.”
“What are you crazy?”
“Call me.”
“I don’t know, I’ll call you, so you do it yourself. Anyway, the men of the Ban family are fucking tired…”
Ban Yu-mi shakes her head and heads out to spread the word about the family meeting.
Ban Yoo-won sighed as he watched his older sister’s smooth back and waist as she stretched her legs out, thinking that if she just changed her temper, she would be popular.
Then, without thinking, I picked up a bag of snacks scattered on the floor.
[Would you like to rob the packet of language concepts from the finished cookie bag?]
“…look at this.”
A smile crept across his lips.
It seems that there is a need to make a budget at a family meeting.
* * *
As Light, who was left alone after Ban Yu-Won left, remained in shock for some time after that, then realized that his body was dirty with filth, and sighed lightly before heading to the shower.
After throwing away all the filthy foreign objects in the swamp and the troll ogre’s blood and bodily fluids, a necklace in the shape of a cross was revealed above the dignified naked body.
“Even if I take it off now… No, no. You should get used to it.”
After thinking about it for a while, Light finally took a shower with the necklace on.
While taking a shower, what naturally comes to mind is the face of Yuwon Ban, who will be living in the same room from now on.
“I also had to get a single room. Whoa….”
Fortunately, he didn’t seem like a bad person.
Moreover, I’m sorry for saying this, but it seems that his fighting ability is much lower than himself, so he will be able to subdue him quickly no matter what.
However, the invisible artifact was quite surprising.
He didn’t have much strength because he swung it reflexively, but he still blocked his holy sword.
You can tell because he himself is the owner of a great artifact.
The artifact is not an ordinary item.
‘Getting such an artifact isn’t enough. It’s going to take an outrageous talent to handle. Moreover, the connection form may be the person himself…. It must be the talent that the faculty pays attention to. A full talent, not a half like me.’
A talent that has already blossomed and will continue to develop brilliantly.
I was able to get a glimpse of such a talent from Ban Yu-won.
different from yourself.
“no no!”
He gritted his teeth as if to deny the thought that came to him.
A small fist pounded hard on the wall of the shower room.
‘If you weaken your mind, you will be swallowed at that moment. i can’t fall Because somehow I managed to get into the academy. Must…’
Must climb the tower.
You will gain the power to protect your world.
Aslight made a strong determination and washed her body.
Then, suddenly, I realized something.
‘When I was talking to him earlier, it was so natural that I didn’t recognize it…but I think he was speaking Union himself.’
The language of all who set foot in Union Academy is integrated into one language called ‘Union Language’.
The language of professors and students as well as all books in the academy will be unified.
This was an authority that was applied over a wide range beyond the skills that an individual could handle.
However, strictly speaking, this could be seen as simultaneous interpretation.
Even if you speak in your native language, it is naturally translated into Union language, and you can recognize it as your native language when you hear Union language.
The same is true when reading texts.
So, everyone communicates in Union language.
But there are some downsides that inevitably exist here.
That is, the shape of the mouth and the pronunciation do not match.
Well, I’m spitting out my mother tongue, but it’s natural that it’s changed to Union language and pops out.
It could feel a little intrusive to people with excellent senses like As Light.
But why did that man’s mouth shape and pronunciation match perfectly…?
It bothers me to say that I knew the concept of the lower dimension and the upper dimension today because I knew Union language.
‘Was the shape of your mother tongue similar to Union language…?’
That was the most persuasive conclusion Wright could draw.
There is no way that I could have learned Union language right away as soon as I encountered it today.
Above all, this is not very important compared to the artifact he possesses.
Aslight shrugged, wiped herself with a towel, and grabbed the sword.
There are two days left until admission.
Even that short period of time could not be wasted in order to be recognized as an overwhelming force in the academy, which is full of residents of higher dimensions.
