The Spoon Villain Is Obsessed with the Hero Again Today - Chapter 45

45 – Evaluation Battle (7)

Somehow, Kang Tae-hoon and I ended up being dragged to the medical and administrative office again, just like last time. It was natural since we caused a commotion in the classroom.

“What’s going on again.”

Coincidentally, Kim Dong-hak was in the medical and administrative office. He was leisurely drinking mixed coffee and reading the newspaper.

I pointed at Kang Tae-hoon and spoke.

“This guy started the fight first.”

“Hey! You should speak properly! It’s not like this happened because you didn’t play a prank on me first!”

Kang Tae-hoon shouted, holding his nose. His face was still wrinkled as if the cleaner’s detergent hadn’t completely come off.

“Both of you sit down for now.”

Since the story seemed like it would take a while, Kim Dong-hak guided us to a nearby table.

Kang Tae-hoon and I sat side by side on the sofa.

“Assistant Instructor Seo.”

“Yes, Instructor.”

Kim Dong-hak called Assistant Instructor Seo, who was nearby.

The one who brought us to the medical and administrative office was Seo Dan-ah. She stood at attention, waiting for Kim Dong-hak’s instructions.

“I’ll handle this matter. Take a break for a moment and come back.”

“Understood.”

“Excuse me for a moment.” After a salute to Kim Dong-hak, Assistant Seo left the medical and administrative office.

Watching this, Kang Tae-hoon widened his eyes in amazement.

“Are there still people who salute like that these days? Not even a cadet at a military academy….”

“At a time like this, that’s not the important part.”

Kim Dong-hak folded the newspaper he was reading in half and placed it on the table.

“What trouble did you get into this time? Wasn’t everything supposed to be settled at the after-party?”

Kim Dong-hak was aware of what had happened between me and Kang Tae-hoon. He probably received a separate report from Assistant Seo who just left.

“Oh, right! Now is not the time for this!”

Kang Tae-hoon jumped up from the sofa, claiming he had forgotten.

“Do you know what that jerk did to me earlier? He gave me a cleaning tissue instead of a wet wipe and told me to wipe my face. Look at this!”

Kang Tae-hoon pointed to his swollen, reddened nose as evidence. He seemed seriously inflated, as if he had been hit several times.

It was ridiculously absurd.

“I could have become a fool just because of a little tap! Are you going to let this slide?”

“Hmm.”

Kim Dong-hak glanced at me and asked if what he said was true.

Without any excuses, I honestly replied, “Yes, that’s correct. The wet wipe he gave me to wipe my nose happened to be a cleaning tissue. It’s entirely my fault. I apologize.”

As I finished speaking, I lowered my head towards him.

“Hey, what the hell! What are you doing bowing to him?”

“Ah, it was a mistake.”

I turned around and hit Kang Tae-hoon on the head. Anyway, this time it was my fault, so I decided to apologize cleanly.

“Is this the end of the story?”

Kim Dong-hak looked puzzled, wondering why he had come to the medical and administrative office for such a thing.

“Why fight over something like this?”

“It’s not over yet!”

However, Kang Tae-hoon, with many grievances accumulated, couldn’t calm down easily.

“That was just a small part! If you hear what that guy has been doing until now, Kim Dong-hak, you might be surprised!”

After hearing his statement, Kim Dong-hak asked me, “Is what he said true? Shin Yoon-seong.”

“I looked at Kim Donghak with an innocent face, pretending not to know anything, even tilting my head in the middle.

“Kraaah! Are you now lying even to the instructor? Are you really a psychopath? Huh?”

Kang Taehoon grabbed me by the collar, saying he couldn’t take it anymore. I looked at Kim Donghak with eyes that seemed ready to burst into tears at any moment.

I was asking for help.

“Kang Taehoon, this is the disciplinary office. Even if it’s you, I believe you can distinguish time and place.”

“Tch….”

In the end, Kang Taehoon reluctantly let go of my collar.

“And Shin Yoonsung, stop the awkward acting now.”

“Yeah.”

It seemed like my tears didn’t affect Kim Donghak at all. Arinana Choe Soeun managed to get through to him well. Is it because we’re both guys?

Kim Donghak nodded with a clenched fist and a nod of his head.

“I understand the situation roughly. It seems to be a common conflict among students. I get it.”

“….”

“….”

Was he really understanding? Kang Taehoon and I looked at Kim Donghak with drained faces. At least for now, there was a moment when our hearts matched.

“Hmm….”

Meanwhile, Kim Donghak stroked his chin, contemplating how to resolve the situation.

“Right!”

Suddenly, he raised the corners of his mouth, claiming he had a good idea.

“How about settling this like students in the combat unit, with a decisive match? Man to man.”

A decisive match. When I heard that word, Kang Taehoon and I had opposite reactions.

Naturally, I shot Kim Donghak a disgusted look. Is he really suggesting that? Should I have a one-on-one fight with Kang Taehoon?

He seemed determined to make me a laughingstock in front of the audience.

“A match? That sounds good. As expected from the instructor. It wasn’t for nothing that I had that tasteless cafeteria food.”

On the contrary, Kang Taehoon welcomed the idea of a decisive match, spreading his arms wide. A legitimate chance for a showdown had come. Of course, he wouldn’t miss this chance.

“Instructor, I don’t really want a decisive match. I don’t even know why we have to do it.”

I struggled to prevent the decisive match from happening, not wanting to go through unnecessary trouble.

“I just suggested a reasonable solution; I didn’t force anyone.”

Kim Donghak began sipping the remaining coffee, claiming that the choice was up to the individuals.

From here on, it was up to the students to come to an agreement among themselves.”

Well, it seemed like he was silently hoping for an evaluation to take place.

“Hey, Shin Yoon-seong.”

“I don’t want to.”

“I haven’t said anything yet!”

Even without looking, it was obvious what he was trying to say. Clearly, he must be suggesting having an evaluation match.

I have no intention of listening.

“How can it be impossible? Just once, let’s make a deal.”

“Am I crazy to have an evaluation match with you?”

“I’ll give you as much as you want in terms of money! Just one round! Let’s do just one round!”

Living life and now openly supporting even a gambling match. It seems like he’s really determined to go through with it.

Still, he doesn’t seem entirely shameless. He’s even providing the money. If I do well, I might be able to score big.

“…”

Wait a moment.

Is there anything else I can gain from this evaluation match? If the conditions align, it could be a fight worth trying.

I quickly decided to tap on the calculator.

“How much is the maximum for the gambling money?”

“What do you mean by ‘maximum’? Naturally, you have to give as much as you call. Hospital fees, medication costs, post-treatment expenses, mental health management, and even a travel package. I’ll deposit it directly into your account.”

“Of course, it’ll be a prepayment, right?”

“I’m Kang Tae-hoon. When it comes to money, I’m a serious man. Of course, it has to be a gentlemanly prepayment.”

Good. Money is definitely secured. Now it’s time to demand other conditions.

“Along with the gambling money, there’s something else I’d like to request.”

“What is it? Just tell me comfortably.”

“After this evaluation match, I hope you won’t come looking for me anymore.”

I can’t be involved with Kang Tae-hoon forever. Since he seems to have no lingering feelings even for Ah Reun, my mission can be considered complete.

It’s time to slowly withdraw. I’ve requested a no-approach order.

“What’s this? It’s not that difficult. Alright, include that too. Since I only need it once anyway.”

Without any suspicion, Kang Tae-hoon gladly accepted the additional condition I proposed.

It’s as if he’s blind to the fact that I have a hidden agenda. He has no idea what trap might be lurking here.

“It seems like our conversation has ended well.”

At that moment, Kim Dong-hak, who had been quietly reading the newspaper, stood up. He soon brought a document and placed it on the table.

It was a form for applying for an evaluation match.

“It seems like there were some conditions exchanged between the two. Make sure to accurately note them in the application form.”

Commonly, it was the time for writing a contract. In order to ensure that the conditions exchanged now would be well-maintained in the future, writing a contract was essential. There could be people who would later speak otherwise.

“Oh, I’m not the kind of person to lie.”

Kang Taehoon laughed happily like a child and engraved his name in the application form.

“Since I find writing tedious, you can write down the conditions I mentioned earlier.”

Kang Taehoon audaciously passed the pen to me without even knowing how intimidating the contract was.

I understood and wrote down my name along with detailed contract terms.

“Now just stamp it below.”

Next, Kim Donghak brought the ink stamp. I firmly pressed the bright red ink stamp with my thumb and stamped it on the application form.

Kang Taehoon did the same.

“With this, the evaluation match is confirmed. I hope it will be a satisfying battle for both of us.”

After making copies of the completed application form, I provided one copy to each of us.

After double-checking the contents, I nodded, indicating everything was in order.

On the other hand, Kang Taehoon casually put the received application form into his pocket.

“Oh, I hope the evaluation match day comes quickly. Don’t you?”

Tak-tak. Kang Taehoon lightly patted my shoulder while chuckling.

“….”

hehehehe.

That impudent guy.

Who would have a evaluation match with you?

Of course, I’ll surrender with both hands up as soon as it begins.

As long as I get the money, that’s all that matters.

Especially with the additional prohibition on approaching that I proposed earlier.
