I Became the Leader of Academy City - Chapter 50

50 – Discipline 20. The leading manager and the deputy manager rely on each other (3)

As usual, I arrived at the leadership team’s executive office and drank hot coffee.

However, unlike usual, it was not a leisurely morning.

Today, I went to school while practicing spatial jumping, and my physical strength was greatly reduced.

‘I’m dying.’

It felt like my life was being shortened.

But when I look back on my past, including my past life, I have never had a successful experience in anything I did without putting my best effort into it. So the only way I could do it was to practice constantly.

“… ….”

As I was looking down at my coffee cup, I remembered seeing Baek Seo’s naked body yesterday.

‘Anyway… Aside from being embarrassed.’

I was already really embarrassed yesterday.

I showed an indecent behavior that should not be shown as a leading manager….

It can’t be like that anymore.

She began to organize her mind, thinking of other thoughts.

‘At that time.’

When I fell into White Paper’s shower room, I caught a glimpse of her profile.

There was a picture engraved on her left shoulder.

At the time, the white paper quickly covered her left shoulder.

‘That tattoo….’

There was a tattoo engraved in my mind that I could immediately figure out what it was just by looking at its location and general color.

It is a tattoo of a skull with fangs sticking out, which is not known to the general public.

‘It was a tattoo of a hunting dog.’

Hound, agent of the Federation Council.

The secret tattoo of the elite unit, ‘Spartoi’, meaning ‘dragon soldiers’.

It was a kind of engraving.

It was something I saw in the game.

‘It’s not a coincidence.’

It was too elaborate and exquisite to be a coincidence.

‘I understand this and that. Why does White Paper have such an excellent fighting sense?’

Assuming that White Paper was once a hunting dog, some of the questions I had about her are resolved.

Spartoy are essential people in Neo Seoul. Because you carry out black ops in the backworld and protect the city.

It is known that the intensity of training is at an extreme level.

It is natural to receive intensive training in combat skills.

Anyway, Spartoi were not included in my assignment.

‘If the principal is targeting me before he commits suicide, he won’t know.’

Including the Spartoys and female nuns we saw before.

The problem was that some of the Spartoys had the power of the headmaster.

If the headmaster instead of a third-rate villain like a bomb demon uses the elite unit Spartoy to target me like last time, it will be very dangerous.

As mentioned above, Spartoi are powerful players who will change the ranking of Academy City once they are revealed to the surface.

Because each and every one of them is a daunting opponent.

Even the strongest person in this city after Goliath belongs to Spartoi.

Although Goliath was overwhelming, the problem was that Spartoy was good at cooperation. It was a difficult point of differentiation from Goliath, who was strong due to his short stature.

‘We shouldn’t fight.’

Even if I had to clash with Spartoy, I had no intention of letting it go silently. For now, all we can do is prepare.

‘Anyway, in the end… ‘Why is the white paper here?’

As a Spartoy, for what purpose did you infiltrate Asung High School?

Or did he quit Spartoy and lead a normal academy life?

‘Probably the latter.’

If Baek Seo had infiltrated Aseong High School with some secret purpose, he would have tried to keep a certain distance from people.

However, White Paper built a close relationship with me and even took the bold step of moving next door to me.

There was no possibility that the target was me.

Until last year, I had never really stood out.

You were an extra A with no reason to be targeted by anyone.

‘In other words, White Paper has a past as a Spartoi, and now he wants to hide that past.’

Of course, there were not enough clues to make a clear decision.

However.

‘First of all… ‘It’s better to pretend you don’t know.’

For now, I decided to pretend not to know like I did yesterday.

I did not want to do anything that would reveal the past that the white paper might not want to bring up.

‘That too.’

I leaned back in my chair and looked up at the ceiling.

‘How are you treating the white paper today?’

The task immediately in front of us was also a problem.

When you look at the white paper, you will definitely remember what happened yesterday.

The same goes for the white paper.

‘I’m so glad they don’t think of me as someone who will kill me….’

My head became complicated.

‘Let’s take a shower first.’

Today’s first period was a participation class, so I had to go to the classroom.

It would be better to take a shower before going.

When the time was right, I got up and headed to the door.

When I reached for the door handle, the door suddenly opened.

“Ah.”

Beyond the open door, I made eye contact with Oh Baek-seo.

He stopped breathing for a moment, but quickly composed his expression.

“… “Welcome.”

“Yes, good morning.”

We greeted each other as usual, but for some reason there was an awkward atmosphere.

“Are you leaving already?”

Baek Seo smiled his usual kind smile.

“I’m going to take a shower because it’s a participation class for the first period. “I got a little sweaty while practicing my natural ability.”

“I see. “Take care.”

The white paper quickly looked away from me and sat down on the sofa. For some reason, the quick steps that seemed to be avoiding him stood out.

Should I say it was like a movement of citizens evacuating during a disaster?

‘What is this sense of distance…? ?’

My body suddenly stiffened and cold sweat broke out.

I feel an unknown distance….

……

‘Obviously, he’s avoiding me… !’

For the next few days, White Paper treated me ‘only’ in a businesslike manner.

I tried to change the mood, but it was no use.

Even if I brought up a slightly personal topic, Baek Seo calmly answered with a smile and ended the conversation.

No matter what was said, it turned into a business-like conversation.

‘Are you not angry?’

My mistake was big….

It was a situation that could have caused trauma to one person.

No matter how perfect the white paper may seem, it is not necessarily a superhuman. Because of my mistake, I may have been hurt knowingly or unknowingly.

Furthermore, during the shower room incident, I couldn’t even properly reply to White Paper’s joke.

In fact, I might have been the one who created this awkward atmosphere.

‘What should I do…? ?’

How can I free White Paper’s heart?

On an evening filled with the glow of the sunset, I thought hard while doing my work in the club room.

I’ve already given White Paper snacks he might like several times, given him personal compliments that I wouldn’t normally give him, or tried all kinds of different things.

However, the white paper still did not treat me as lightly as before. Rather, he just tried to keep his distance from me by avoiding my eyes.

‘Now that it’s like this, I have the right to use Ahn Woo-jin’…. No, that’s not it.’

He shook his head and withdrew the ‘right to use Ahn Woo-jin’.

‘It’s just a matter of following the white paper.’

In the first place, I thought it would be too cringy if I did that.

I missed the dirty jokes Baek Seo would occasionally tell. Please play around with me….

I was tying my head and groaning.

“Whoa…” .”

“?”

Suddenly, the white paper let out a long, very long sigh.

Put your hand on his chest and close your eyes… , Very puffy.

It was a sigh that was very consistent with the expression that the earth is sighing.

“It’s done.”

“What?”

What is it?

“It’s finally done.”

“So what… ?”

The white paper turned his head towards me and smiled meaningfully. Her face lit up in the glow of the sunset outside her window.

“Manager, would you like to come over here for a moment?”

“Hmm?”

I was skeptical, but I approached the white paper.

Soak. She sat down next to White Paper.

“Come here.”

“?”

Sigh. Her white paper hand gently touched my head, pulling me towards her. Just like that, my cheek touched the soft thighs of the white paper.

“That’s right, that’s good.”

“…… ?”

What is this… It’s a situation, right?

Suddenly, White Paper laid me down on her thighs and started stroking my hair. Her mind was spinning.

As I looked away, I saw White Paper looking down at me with her happy face.

It was unexpected, but it was a superb view.

“… What are you doing?”

After only dealing with me in a business-like manner for a few days, I was embarrassed to suddenly show such aggressive behavior.

“I am carrying out my duties as head of the household.”

Her knee pillow?

She opened her eyes and looked at the white paper.

“Isn’t this something a lover would do? If someone suddenly comes in….”

“I don’t care?”

That’s right.

He said he didn’t care about this….

I couldn’t get up.

The soft white thighs and her soft touch seemed to suck me in like a black hole.

‘It’s already past school dismissal time anyway, and it’s not time for anyone to come visit us….’

Wasn’t this the moment when White Paper, which had been so businesslike, finally opened my heart to me again?

I couldn’t let this moment go to waste.

I rationalized myself and accepted the healing that the white paper gave me.

“Manager, you haven’t slept much lately, have you?”

“Hmm?”

“Dark circles have come down a lot.”

The white paper said, pointing under his eyes with his free hand.

He was trying his best to look like an iron man, but he could not hide the shadow of his eyes, a phenomenon that naturally appears on the body.

From the beginning, there was no point in making a pretense of saying ‘I can’t give in’ to the vice-president due to work intensity issues. Because our work is most closely related.

It would be okay to be honest about this part.

“What… , there was no time to rest. “Final exams are coming soon.”

Studying for final exams.

Leading manager duties.

The aftermath of the Han Seo-jin incident.

Training of unique abilities.

I had no stamina left every day, and I could hardly find time to sleep.

But, there was nothing I could do.

Now was the time to run no matter how difficult it was.

We have to deal with the leader and catch the remaining six criminals.

If the principal is targeting me, I have to fight back.

Even on that mysterious day when White Paper disappears, it was because I had to protect this child.

“Yes. “It must be difficult, our manager.”

The white paper whispered sweetly in an intimate tone and continued to stroke my hair.

Perhaps because so many white papers have been drawing lines these days, this moment felt very dramatic.

It’s not just a dirty joke or a prank….

Because he seemed to be showering affection on me as much as he had been treating me poorly.

‘Ah… , It is healed.’

It is a natural process for my heart to melt.

I had to have a lot of trouble managing my facial expressions.

“But I finished all the important work.”

“What?”

“You’ve been working all week, right? The manager was also very busy…. So, I supported the manager as much as I could. “Did I do well?”

A white paper smiling as if asking for praise.

I was so busy with the ‘work that needed to be done’ that was right in front of me that I couldn’t pay proper attention to the work that the executives were doing.

However, considering that all the approval documents that White Paper uploaded to me after completing the work were perfect.

The white paper did not say things like ‘we provided maximum support’ for no reason.

“When you said ‘it’s done’, did you mean that you did everything you could?”

White Paper shook his head.

“Then?”

“Well…. “Why?”

?

White Paper tilted his head and smiled slyly as if he didn’t know the reason.

Nevertheless, he stroked my hair without stopping.

“… ….”

I am quick-witted.

I thought I figured it out even if I thought about it just a little bit.

Apparently, the incident where I fell into the shower room put a lot of pressure on White Paper.

It seemed like he needed time to gather his thoughts before he could treat me like normal again. The white paper also took its own effort.

“Is that so?”

As expected, I can’t live without this child anymore.

“It’s a white paper.”

“Yes.”

“For sure, you are dependable.”

I expressed my honest sincerity to the white paper.

The white paper smiled.

“Thank goodness. “I feel like I have now become someone worthy of the manager’s trust.”

I immediately realized why he said that.

The part that deals with game knowledge has never been explained even to the white paper.

Is that why you thought you didn’t have my trust yet?

“That’s….”

I can’t talk about that part, but it was sincere that I depended on the white paper.

I just hope that the quick-witted white paper understands my sincerity.

“Me too.”

Whitepaper interrupted me and said:

“The manager is dependable.”

A warm and kind tone filled my ears.

Why is there heat in my head?

‘Something’s creepy…’ .’

Let’s stop talking about this at this point.

I felt like my hands and feet were shriveling, perhaps because I was revealing my heart-warming truth.

‘Suddenly I feel sleepy.’

Is it because I was relieved?

I was slowly getting sleepy.

Perhaps it was because I had been so nervous lately that I couldn’t sleep well, so the drowsiness was quite unbearable.

‘I should at least take a nap.’

I put my finger on the hand of the white paper that was stroking my head, and made him stop stroking his hand.

“Thank you. Enough is enough. I need to sleep a little….”

“It’s okay to sleep like this.”

As if it was obvious, the answer came as expected.

I am very satisfied with the current situation, but that doesn’t mean I should be hanging around in heaven.

“If I do that, I don’t think I’ll be able to get up….”

Rat!

“A wild Hayesong has appeared! … Huh?”

The door to the leadership department’s executive room opened and Ha Yesong appeared.

I was already standing and stretching after sticking out like a spring from the white paper’s thigh. I was able to react quickly because I heard footsteps right before the door opened.

Meanwhile, Baek Seo smiled kindly at Yesong.

“Manager, why are you stretching all of a sudden?”

“Oh, is it Yesong? “She was sore and was trying to stretch her body out a bit.”

“Aha. mmm, great decision! If you stretch occasionally while sitting still while working, it will help improve blood circulation! Very good! “I, Ha Yesong, do that often too!”

What should I do?

“But what’s going on? This time?”

“Leave your snacks behind! It’s here. “You’re safe, Double Special Tiramisu Kun!”

Yesong took out a box containing two pieces of tiramisu cake from her refrigerator and put the paper she had brought in advance into her bag.

“Then I’ll just go! “See you tomorrow, White Paper!”

“Take care.”

Yesong saluted me and then left Busil like the wind.

“… “I’m fully awake.”

“hehehe.”

After hearing what I said, the white paper covered her mouth with her gently clenched fist and laughed heartily.

After that day.

Thanks to White Paper’s hard work, I have more free time at work.

Leading department executive office.

Secretary Park Min-hyuk worked on a laptop while hiding in a cabinet, and Ha Yesong, the person in charge of disorderly conduct, talked about her food and ate her snacks, and sat on the sofa with her accounting guide book covering her face. I took a nap.

And.

“Manager, are you having dirty thoughts again?”

“Is that so…? . “I have something to think about regarding the supervision of final exams.”

The white paper served coffee as usual and made the usual joke, then smiled gently.

I returned to the daily life I knew.
