My Abandoned Disciples Came to Me - My Abandoned Disciples Came to Me chapter 59

58. How to subjugate the arrogant Mina Song

Minah Song. The first time she met Joo-Won Choi was a few years ago, when she was at the site of an entrance test at Hellmund Academy.

“Hello everyone, I am Baek Ju-seok, the president of Helmund Academy. I am very happy that so many talented people have applied to our academy. Those who pass today’s test will do their best to help our academy win a prestigious title. I believe that you will shine brightly with appropriate behavior and dignity.”

A few years ago. The entrance exam for Hellmund Academy was conducted under the direction of President Ju-Seok Baek. At that time, the Hellmund Academy had not yet been recognized by the country for its prestigious title. However, everyone in the know already knew everything. The fact that Hellmund Academy will soon become the best in Korea.

The reason was simple. It was because there was one instructor with outstanding ability.

Baek Joo-seok tended to manage information thoroughly, fearing that his instructor would be taken away by something like a scouting offer, so the instructor’s face was not as well known as his fame, but his name was Choi Joo-won, who was enough for everyone to be interested.

The entrance test for Helmund Academy was simple. Magical power measurement, magic utilization measurement, magic understanding measurement.

In short, the focus is on how much mana is in total and how well one understands and uses magic. How outstanding is the actual magical ability. The test to see this was the test of Hellmund Academy.

After his speech, Joo-Won Choi asked Baek Joo-Seok who came down from the podium.

“President. Why didn’t you take the entrance test for the beginner’s class for the practical magic class?”

Joo-Won Choi is in charge of a new class at Hellmund Academy. [Practical magic studies] That most students want to enter. Baek Joo-seok had selected a large number of beginners in the class without any special testing process. That’s why Choi Joo-won was curious about the intention.

President Baek Joo-seok answered with a smile.

“Befitting the name of the beginner’s class, I selected and put in a few students who were a little lacking and who wanted to learn passionately even if they had no ability. The students I selected are tenacious and good-natured students even if they seem to be a bit underpowered in ability. Even if you don’t have the ability, shouldn’t you have the opportunity to learn? And it doesn’t matter if you choose the intermediate and advanced classes anyway, right?”

Choi Joo-won nodded at Baek Joo-seok’s words. Baek Joo-seok thought to himself.

‘Does this bastard keep asking questions like this because he doesn’t know? Of course it’s because of the money. How much money do you give if the bastards who stab you in the back pay you to put them in the beginner class of a popular class? How can I make money as long as I draw this fairly?’

‘Damn it… If this guy didn’t have the ability, I’d have cut him right away.’

At the time, Hellmund Academy was gaining great recognition thanks to Joo-Won Choi’s teaching skills. There was no substitute at all. Even Baek Joo-seok knew that there were many places that would try to take him at least several times the current salary if he was capable of Choi Joo-won’s level. That’s why Baek Joo-seok courted Choi Joo-won as much as possible.

Choi Joo-won spoke leisurely, as if he did not know Baek Joo-seok’s heart.

“I will start soon.”

At the time, the most important aspect of the Hellmund Academy entrance test was, without a doubt, the measurement of magic utilization.

The method itself for measuring magic utilization is simpler than you might think. Place several layers of obstacles created by magic, and place a mana crystal ball behind them. The test subject can use magic to avoid obstacles and then hit the mana crystal ball.

To put it simply, hit a crystal ball while avoiding obstacles. This is an item that evaluates how flexible magic can be used.

-Quaaang-!

We started testing here and there.

“There are a lot of pretty good prospective students this year.”

Choi Joo-won looked around at the students and talked. Baek Joo-seok smiled and replied.

“Isn’t this all because of the excellent instructors? It is no exaggeration to say that so many people gathered because of the reputation of Instructor Choi Joo-won.”

President Baek’s attitude of treating him politely while even saying his honorifics was so pretentious that all those who knew him would stick out their tongues.

Choi Joo-won also knew that he was talking pretentiously, but she didn’t really care. Because he needed outstanding disciples to clear the last main quest he was given in this place where he was possessed.

Since she was possessed by the game, Choi Joo-won has cleared numerous quests. And the last remaining main quest. Since he was designed to make it impossible to clear alone, he was an instructor to train comrades who met the conditions. In a word, for Choi Joo-won at the time, the academy was just a means to go to Earth. The reason she started teaching in the first place was to find outstanding disciples, and if possible, she decided that it would be better to find a raw stone and grow it herself.

-Poof

Joo-Won Choi looked around and kept an eye on the skills of her students. At that time.

-Quaaang-!

With a tremendous sound from one side, a huge amount of smoke began to rise.

“Muh… What’s up!”

Instructors nearby rushed to the place all at once. Choi Joo-won also slowly approached the place where the smoke was rising.

‘Wow… Does this make sense.’

Where the smoke disappeared, there stood a prospective trainee who not only avoided and hit obstacles with magic, but also smashed the mana crystal ball itself.

“This is broken, what should I do?”

The students reacted as if they weren’t too surprised. In general, the more finely you control magic, the less powerful it is. So, in this test, it is difficult for most people to have enough power to destroy the mana crystal orb, which has high durability.

But, of course, the girl in front of her eyes was sending her eyes, wondering if she should do this much.

“That’s ridiculous…”

Joo-Won Choi said that she didn’t know herself, and her elasticity came out of her mouth. She has an extreme understanding of magic, an act that would never be possible for anyone else, how strong this girl would become if she even learned magic properly at the academy. Joo-Won Choi was intrigued.

‘At this level, it will be of great help in the final quest.’

Having judged that, Choi Joo-won asked the girl her name.

“Prospective students? Your skills are amazing. What’s your name by any chance?”

To Joo-Won Choi’s question, she answered proudly.

“Do you really need to know my name?”

Embarrassed, Choi Joo-won tilted her head and asked a question.

“Don’t you know who I am? I said it because I was afraid to say it to each other, but you are a little aggressive.”

“Do I need to know who you are? I don’t want to remember or remember people who are weaker than me. Can you tell me easily? I mean, I don’t want to give you your name, nor do I want to know your name.”

Song Min-ah, a girl who answers sarcasticly.

She had a cheeky expression on her face. Looking at her, Choi Joo-won thought.

‘In this goddamn world, if you have strong power, everyone’s personality is broken a little bit somewhere.’

Minah Song possesses excellent talent both objectively and subjectively. She doesn’t seem to be very old, but if she had this level of magic utilization, it wouldn’t be hard to call her a talent that only comes out once in a few decades, even if she wasn’t at an unprecedented level. Of course, if Choi Joo-won raised her, she would become a monster even more.

‘I’ll have to kill my personality first.’

Choi Joo-won talked to the girl.

“I admit that you are very talented. Does that make it right to be so rude to others? I was just impressed with your abilities, so I asked for your name. In the first place, seeing that President Baek Joo-seok is next to you, can’t you infer that I am a lecturer? But is it necessary to react so aggressively?”

For reference, the name Choi Joo-won was well-known in the media, but his face was largely unknown as President Baek banned his external activities. So it was only natural that Song Min-ah didn’t know.

“Poop”

Minah Song replied with a smile.

“This is sophistry. Isn’t it natural for really talented people to be so confident and look down on others? In a world where force is paramount, what difference does it make to be considerate of others? Anyway, the structure where the strong trample the weak doesn’t change. To be sure, words such as being considerate of the weak and being humble are just words coined by people without power to bring down the strong. Really talented people don’t say such pathetic things. From the looks of it, you seem to be an under-qualified instructor.”

“Not everyone in the world lives like you.”

“Tsk, that’s an obvious answer from an incompetent instructor.”

Joo-Won Choi did not answer her words and walked towards the magic usage test site.

From Choi Joo-won’s hand, delicate mana began to emanate from her like a thread.

-Paaang-!

It moved like a snake that escaped Choi Joo-won’s hand and avoided all obstacles.

-Shhhhh

The mana that made a chilly pangong sound bent here and there like a drawn bowstring, and soon split into more than 10 branches and soared into the sky.

-Hwiiik

Before long, the threads of her mana hit her magic crystal orb.

-Quaaang-!

For an instant, everyone around me looked in that direction, bewildered by the tremendous sound.

There was a mana crystal orb where Sarah looked. However, the crystal ball was beautifully cut into the shape of a snowflake.

“Wow…”

The prospective students who were watching exclaimed in unison. Even Baek Joo-seok, who was watching from the side, checked the sight several times as if it was absurd, so there is no need to explain how great it is to process a mana crystal ball like Choi Joo-won.

I can confidently say that it is overwhelmingly more difficult to process a mana orb into a specific shape than completely destroying it with a single spell. It is not a matter of strength. Area of ‘technology’. It was a look that clearly showed that Choi Joo-won’s mana utilization was at the level of an overwhelming ‘artisan’.

Choi Joo-won shrugged her shoulders once as if she was nothing, and then she spoke.

“I’m not strong enough to count on one hand. But my understanding of magic is about S-class, so this is nothing to me. It’s not a matter of strength. It’s a matter of skill.”

-Turbuck, turbuck, turbuck

Choi Joo-won walked slowly and went right in front of the girl and talked.

“With just that much skill, don’t ignore others, brag about it, and don’t brag about it. Not everyone in the world is like you.”

“…”

Choi Joo-won looked down at the girl who kept her mouth shut as if she had forgotten the language.

“You got mad at me for asking who I was by name? I am the instructor who will teach you from now on.”

“According to what you said, I will never have to wonder about your name.”

“Because you are weaker than me.”
