My Abandoned Disciples Came to Me - My Abandoned Disciples Came to Me chapter 53

52. Shim Ji-hyeok went crazy

“F*ck-!”

-Quaaang-!

As soon as the broadcast ended, Shim Ji-hyuk entered the bathroom as if he were running away. It was because I felt like I was going to vomit at people’s cold stares.

– There was also a video evidence, but does it make sense to drive a person who did good things like that?

– If you don’t know well, don’t you stay still? A doctor said a story that has not even been verified…

– Dr. Shim Ji-hyeok appeared on TV a lot, so I thought he had an excellent knowledge of magic, but it turned out that he was a quack who was good at media communication.

– If there was no evidence video, only one good person would have been buried for nothing

Numerous audience members criticized Shim Ji-hyeok for his hasty judgment.

Shim Ji-hyeok In an instant, the instructor who opened the black gate and saved the students even at the risk of his life became a failed idiot who tried to make him a criminal.

Even Shim Ji-hyeok’s well-educated image, which he had built up in the media, has been cracked. It was natural. Because he said there would be no black gates open until he was on his way to his PhD.

“I… How did I build my reputation!”

“Aagh!”

Shim Ji-hyeok frantically punched the wall. He was recognized by people and found the meaning of his own existence. The reason why he wanted to enter the Mage Tower was because of his desire to be acknowledged by the institution that is said to be the pinnacle of magic. Shim Ji-hyeok longed for recognition from others all his life.

It was his desperate struggle to enter the Mage Tower that undermined the masked instructor excessively this time.

– One of the positions excluding the position of the tower master and the wielder. I’ll give you what you want.

– That… That nonsense… Are you serious?

– Are you suspicious of me? I keep my words once spoken. Of course, that’s when you completely destroyed the masked instructor’s reputation. So, do your best.

The other day, Shin Yu-ra promised Shim Ji-hyeok one of the positions in the Mage Tower. But in order to do that, he said he had to completely destroy the reputation of the masked instructor.

Currently, masked instructors use new techniques. For example, it was attracting people’s attention with innovative magic techniques such as external mana usage and circle break. Now, it is possible to discuss the side effects or risks of these things, but if the stability is verified, the masked instructor is a genius who will never come out again in the magical world. It was highly likely to be rated higher than that.

‘Damn it…’

Sim Ji-hyeok knew how great the things the mask instructor taught him were. That’s why it was urgent. As time goes on, more and more of his abilities will be revealed to the world, and the more he does, the harder it will be to undermine the reputation of the masked instructor.

‘This was my last chance…’

A chance to enter the magic tower came to Shim Ji-hyeok, who thought he would die after only doing broadcasting for the rest of his life. A golden opportunity was missed right in front of my eyes.

Since this mission has been a major failure, and the popularity of the masked instructor has increased, Shin Yu-ra, the owner of the magic tower, will not try to use Shim Ji-hyeok anymore. Shim Ji-hyeok became a rotten hand to Shin Yoo-ra.

-Kadudeuk

Shim Ji-hyeok shut his mouth to make his teeth crack.

‘What kind of f*cking bastard made the report at that timing…’

Sim Ji-hyeok had the idea that he wanted to tear the person who gave the information to him and kill him. If it wasn’t for the informant’s video, Shim Ji-hyeok’s drive would have been successful, and if he was lucky, he might have been able to stably enter the magic tower.

Because of a single tip-off video, Shim Ji-hyeok lost all of the recognition, reputation, and trust he had built up during his 20 years of broadcasting. He said that in one moment he fell into hell.

‘F*ck… I don’t know what kind of bastard he is, but if he gets caught, I’ll kill him…’

Shim Ji-hyeok came out of the bathroom, spraying thick blood.

– Wow, isn’t that Professor Shim Ji-hyeok?

– No, since he said he was giving up his Ph.D.

– Oh, that’s right, you put up your Ph.D. Without knowing anything about it?

People were buzzing around. Shim Ji-hyeok glared at the source of the sound.

“Wow… I’m going to hit people, I’m going to hit people”

“Until now, I’ve never seen anything like that on a broadcast, but as expected, people don’t know just by looking at the camera.”

“Is it true that he behaves like that because he made a mistake?”

Even though Shim Ji-hyeok was staring at him, dozens of people banded together to criticize him.

It has to be. Because Shim Ji-hyeok risked his life to open the black gate and unilaterally criticize, disparage, and put down the masked instructor who saved the students.

“aaah-!”

Shim Ji-hyeok screamed in frustration. However, far from being scared, people only looked at him pathetically.

“Why is that person crazy?”

“You look really pathetic. I guess that would make you look scary.”

The murmur of people continues again.

Shim Ji-hyeok felt a nauseous feeling as if his brain was spinning.

Every time he heard people criticize him, he felt as if worms were eating away at his brain. So he started running outside where there were no people.

-Tadadak

“Heogee… Heouk… Heouk…”

It wasn’t until he went outside that Shim Ji-hyeok started shouting.

“What the f*ck are you pathetic bastards who don’t even know! Do you guys know about magic? I’ve been immersed in magic for over 20 years!”

“Heeuk… Heouk…”

I shouted, but no one was around.

Shim Ji-hyeok looked left and right. It was as if I could still hear people’s accusations.

“F*ck… I just wanted to enter the magic tower… Report video… If it wasn’t for that, nothing would have happened to me either…”

Shim Ji-hyeok was in pain as he tore off his hair. And he muttered as if he was possessed by something.

“A f*cking baby … The cause of everything is the whistleblower.”

Unable to recognize his own fault, Shim Ji-hyeok was captured by resentment toward the informant who sent the video and f*cked him.

“If only I could find out his identity…”

All reports received by the broadcasting station are stored in the broadcasting station’s main data artifact. And, the originals of the report mail are kept there. Shim Ji-hyeok remembered that fact.

And he naturally moved on. The place he headed was, of course, the place where the station’s main data artifacts were kept.

-Tadadadadak

Shim Ji-hyeok begins to walk quickly. The spaces inside the station slide back and forth.

“Stop. Those who have not been identified will not be able to enter any more.”

A security guard intercepted Sim Ji-hyeok on the way. Sim Ji-hyeok smiled and trembled.

“You are Chansung Lee, right?”

The security guard squinted his eyes, checked the man’s face again, and spoke in surprise.

“You were Shim Ji-hyeok? Why did you come here?”

There were few employees who didn’t know Shim Ji-hyeok, who had been in and out of the broadcasting station for 20 years. The same goes for these people.

“I’m supposed to meet with the broadcasting director, so I think I’ll have to go inside.”

Then, a security guard stopped Shim Ji-hyeok with an ambiguous expression.

“I haven’t received anything else. It must be difficult.”

Then Shim Ji-hyeok whispered in the security guard’s ear.

“Chansung Lee, have you ever been kicked while trying to get a number from an idol?”

-Shudder

“I don’t think he told anyone because he has a weak personality, but what if the fact that you, who also has a wife, found out that you did it? It wouldn’t matter if your wife found out, right?”

Then, Lee Chan-sung trembled and asked a question.

“What do you want?”

“Please let me go quietly. I don’t want anything else.”

Then, Lee Chan-sung disabled all of the huge security artifacts like cannons. And he asked Sim Ji-hyeok to trust him.

“You shouldn’t act weird. And I don’t know how you know, but you have to keep what I did a secret.”

Shim Ji-hyeok nodded and asked Chan-sung Lee where the office where the station’s main data artifacts were kept.

“Come here.”

Lee Chan-sung led Shim Ji-hyeok to his office.

– Smart smart

Chansung Lee knocked on the office door. Because this door has a strong security spell on it, it is impossible to break through from the outside.

“Who are you?”

The staff inside asked a question while being wary. Then, Lee Chan-sung answered briefly.

“This is security guard Lee Chan-sung. I have something to see inside, so I’m requesting to open it.”

The staff inside felt strange.

‘A security guard suddenly enters this place? Why?’

And of course he didn’t open the door.

“…”

Without a word from inside, Shim Ji-hyeok, who was standing next to him, burst out and spoke to the staff.

“Hello, are you a staff member? This is Shim Ji-hyeok. I’m here because I have something to talk to the station manager. Did you not receive the message?”

The director of the broadcasting station always checks the data here and checks whether there are any problems. So, to meet the station manager, coming here was the quickest way.

Apart from that, there was no communication from the outside. The staff felt strange and checked the person outside through the surveillance artifact once again.

‘Is this Jihyeok Shim?’

Shim Ji-hyeok has been in and out of the broadcasting station for 20 years. He was a very open-minded person even to the staff. Also, seeing that the security guard let him in here, he thought that he had already passed the primary authentication, so he spoke in a slightly wary voice.

“The broadcasting director is not inside right now. When did you deliver the word…?”

Then Shim Ji-hyeok replied with a bright smile.

“About an hour ago, I asked another staff member to pass on the message, but it seems like we couldn’t communicate properly. When will the broadcasting station manager come?”

The staff member had already passed the first certification, and since it was Shim Ji-hyeok, who had been known quite a lot, he trusted me and gave me an answer.

“You will be here in about an hour after the schedule is over.”

Then, Shim Ji-hyeok took out a small envelope from his pocket and whispered quietly.

“That… Actually, I came because I had something requested by the broadcasting station manager… I don’t think I should be holding this outside…”

For a moment, the staff frowned.

‘Did the old man try to take bribes again?’

The broadcasting director here was famous for taking bribes from various people. It’s not just receiving. Rather, he was a greedy person who sometimes demanded bribes from his side. Most people in important positions, including staff, know about this fact. But was condoning it. The reason is simple. Because this is their job.

If the fact that the director of the broadcasting station is taking bribes is revealed, it is obvious that they will not be able to escape unscathed. Because there are not only two people who are related to the broadcasting director.

The system of the entire broadcasting station may collapse. Then, of course, there will be problems such as staff reduction, and they may be fired from their jobs. Therefore, receiving a bribe from the broadcasting station director was a matter that was strictly kept secret except for the officials, and it was a part that everyone knew and kept quiet.

‘If I get caught for nothing, I’ll be damned.’

Currently, there are many celebrities outside as well as broadcasting officials. If the money envelope is noticed by other people, it will be very difficult.

‘Is Shim Ji-hyeok crazy? There’s a security guard next to you. What if I take that out? Do you want to follow everything?’

The staff thought so and talked to Shim Ji-hyeok.

“Shim Ji-hyeok? You’d better come inside and wait. Security guard, please return to your original location. Shim Ji-hyeok is the only one who can enter.”

Then, Shim Ji-hyeok nodded his head, still smiling.

“Yes, I understand.”

-Kikiiik

Slowly, the door to the office where the station’s main data artifacts were kept was opening.

Shim Ji-hyeok fiddled with the dark artifact hidden behind his back.

– Ah, use this in case of an emergency. You can think of it as a down payment I give you first. Of course, any use for any reason is at your own risk.

The dark artifact Shim Ji-hyeok is holding was given to him by Shin Yura the other day. Concerned about the situation, such as being retaliated against by the mask instructor, Shin Yu-ra told Sim Ji-hyeok to keep it in preparation. Dark artifacts are not affected by detection magic, so Shim Ji-hyeok kept carrying them in preparation for emergencies. Of course, he had no idea it would be used this way.

‘More… we need to be more open.’

Then the door almost opened, and the staff whispered to Shim Ji-hyeok.

“Come in quickly.”

And the moment the door was fully opened.

“Everybody step back, f*ck you bastards-!”

Shim Ji-hyeok activated the Dark Artifact he was holding.
