I Became the Academy’s Kibitz Villain

Chapter 215: Yoon Iseon Forms A Contract

Abilities were truly mysterious.

Although I was not an expert on abilities, the more I delved into the world of abilities, the more wondrous it appeared.

“Sigh…”

Yoon Iseon, having exhausted all her magic power, slowly descended.

The pink flames that had spread out around her began to fade, revealing Yoon Iseon’s true form.

“It feels awkward.”

Yoon Iseon frowns at how snugly her sleeves and ankles fit.

“It was so comfortable being elongated, but now that I’m back, it feels awkward.”

Yoon Iseon rotated her wrists and ankles, lamenting the shortening of her limbs.

There seemed to be a considerable amount of regret about returning to her original form from the one she had desired.

[You’ll get used to it, and that will reduce your magic power consumption. Right now, you’re using magic power for your S-class form, costume, and to refine your combat skills, but at your level, you could maintain a transformed state permanently.]

“Really?”

[It’s simple logic. If the natural recovery rate of mana is higher than the consumption rate, the problem is solved.]

It’s just a matter of replenishing the mana in Yoon Iseon’s mana reservoir as fast as it leaked out due to transformation.

[Your mana pool is so large that you can store a lot of mana normally. This being your first transformation, you’re not used to the mana consumption yet. If you manage your mana consumption efficiently, you can maintain that form 24/7.]

“Really?”

[I assure you. Of course, this is assuming ‘normal circumstances’.]

If there was no need to use mana.

If there was no need to act as a hero.

In other words, if Yoon Iseon lived a life like a normal person, not as an S-class ability user, she could maintain her transformation indefinitely.

[But you, even if it means going back to your original form, you’d fight when necessary, wouldn’t you?]

“Yes. Not just because of my role as the student council president, but because I aspire to be a hero. It’s unthinkable for a hero to refrain from acting out of selfishness.”

Yoon Iseon placed her hand on her chest, smiling refreshingly.

“Thank you, Goblin. Thanks to you, I can save more people and be more helpful to many. I’m grateful for everything, but let me start by expressing my gratitude for the most important thing.”

[I’m the one who should be thankful.]

Once Yoon Iseon officially became an S-class, it would become a major issue externally, and that would give me a chance to take care of my business in the meantime.

[Yoon Iseon. I plan to go abroad soon.]

“Abroad?”

[Yes. I’m going on an official mission for the society.]

“What about the academy?”

[Just mix things up appropriately. The library will be fine with anyone keeping watch.]

It’s unfortunate for the existing library staff, but by entering the library, I had allowed the library director to have extra personnel and mobilize scholarship students, so there shouldn’t be any problems with the library.

[Before I leave, you need to create as much of an issue as possible on Sejong Island.]

“So, should I openly show the world that I’ve become an S-class? My new look that I created with you, Goblin?”

[Yes. That’s the first thing I’m asking of you, and it’s the first directive as a member of the society.]

“Drawing aggro.”

Yoon Iseon’s eyes started to sparkle.

Seemingly intrigued by the idea of carrying out a mission for the society, she perked up like a meerkat, waiting for me to say something.

“How should I draw aggro? Should I go around bragging that I’m the winner?”

[The society doesn’t ask you to reveal your identity or give such missions. And we won’t suddenly ask you to act as if you’ve changed overnight. Instead, we’ll assign you a plausible mission that fits your situation.]

I displayed a photo on the tablet inside the bunker.

[Officially, you’re A+ class. You’re the strongest among the A+ class within Sejong Island, and currently, you’re moving in and out of the top 10 in South Korea’s rankings.]

“It’s already updated. The official ranking of the Korea Hero Association…11th place?”

[There are A+ class heroes who graduated from the academy and are active in the field. Yoon Iseon. Do you know how the A+ class is determined?]

“I lose to an S class… Ah!”

Yoon Iseon snapped her fingers.

“So, you’re saying I should take on an S-class! As it should have been!”

[Yes. Originally, if you had defeated Ray Huang, you should have faced Hayabusa.]

That was the flow.

It just got complicated because Hayabusa interfered with Ray Huang on his own.

[There’s still a way to finish that match. But right now, Hayabusa isn’t in her right mind.]

“Because the Goblin scratched her mental state?”

[…It wasn’t exactly to scratch her mental state, but even for an S-class, a 17-year-old high school girl isn’t easily able to shake off that kind of stress.]

The fact that she ruined the final match.

The fact that she turned Ray Huang into a demon.

And that it was to settle the dispute of the original Rider.

It’s not exactly Hayabusa’s fault.

If she was to be blamed, it’s only because the aggro she pulled was on the Goblin.

[There’s no need to purposely provoke Hayabusa, who’s out of her mental state. Instead, a better stage awaits you to prove your victory against her.]

“October, the Hero World Cup.”

[Show your power then. If you don’t face her directly, prove you’re stronger by advancing to a higher round than Hayabusa.]

“I need to become stronger by then… either Snow White level or, if higher, Platinum Sun level.”

Yoon Iseon narrowed her eyes and looked at me.

“Goblin. I have a question. Are you involved with Platinum Sun, or is it Snow White?”

[Do you want the truth and swallow the red pill, or just think whatever you want?]

“Is it Pandora’s box level?”

[It could be a despair worse than that.]

“……Open.”

Yoon Iseon took a deep breath and nodded.

[All three of us have shared a patriotic moment.]

“…….”

[You won’t go around talking about it, but since you’re now part of my organization, I’m telling you this. If you talk, it won’t be me who comes after you, but Platinum Sun will shut your mouth.]

“……Patriotic?”

Pfft.

Yoon Iseon shoved her thumb through the ring she made with her fingers.

[Yes.]

“Wow.”

Responding earnestly to the blatant gesture, Yoon Iseon covered her mouth with her hand and blinked.

“……It’s pointless to argue about who is the official one. As expected of the Goblin. Incredible. To have taken two S-class heroes at once. Incredible.”

[Incredible? Is that sarcasm?]

“No. I mean it. Wow…. To think that the person I admired took not one but two S-class females. I’m jealous. Really. How far did the patriotism go?”

[Ulleung.]

“Are you going as far as marriage?”

[I’m a married man.]

“Adultery?! Wow…! Saying this much means you won’t let it slide if I record anything! It also means you trust me that much!”

[Exactly.]

I approached Yoon Iseon, leaning forward to meet her gaze.

[Since you’ve accepted my recruitment, this is information being shared as part of the organization. If this information leaks, I’ll consider you a ‘Villain’ and execute you.]

“To ensure silence, you won’t spare any means, right?”

[Of course.]

“……As expected, that’s the Goblin. Not sparing women, executing villains with bad crimes without mercy. Yes. I’ll keep that in mind. I won’t disclose it to anyone. I’m a person of few words.”

Yoon Iseon nodded grandly, unflinching even as our faces were close enough to feel each other’s breath.

“I won’t meddle more than what the Goblin expects of the current Yoon Iseon, and I will do my best to ensure that the Goblin’s identity is not exposed because of me. Furthermore, as an S-class ability user, I will become even stronger and, someday, contribute to the society’s influence in Korea, even if it’s just a small part.”

[Such an excellent response deserves praise.]

I reached out and stroked Yoon Iseon’s head.

[Is there something you want? I’m asking because I’m impressed by your beautiful answer. If there’s something you want, just tell me.]

“Wh-what I want…? Ah, then. Uh, uh, there’s no paper right now, ah, shoot. Paper would leave evidence…”

Mumbling to herself, Yoon Iseon turned her back to me.

“This might sound a bit weird, but…”

Then, she slightly lifted her gym uniform, showing me her smooth back.

“…Could you sign my back? If you don’t have a marker, a finger is fine too.”

[…Should I just bring some paper?]

“Ah, no! Paper could leave evidence!”

[…Then, I’ll use my finger.]

I placed my hand on Yoon Iseon’s back.

“Wait a moment.”

[Do you need something?]

“…Are you using your bare hand?”

[…Why?]

“Could you wear a glove, please…?”

[…….]

What an odd girl.

Reluctantly, I took off my glove, put it back on, and signed Yoon Iseon’s back. As soon as I finished signing, Yoon Iseon, supporting her back with both hands, giggled.

“Ah, feeling the Goblin’s signature with my body…! To receive such a signature that no one has officially received before…!”

[If you wish, I could give you more.]

“More? What, are you going to offer patriotism?”

[If you want.]

“…….”

Yoon Iseon frowned seriously for a moment.

“…I’m okay with patriotism with the Goblin, but I’d prefer if you didn’t take off the mask. Ah, and…!”

Yoon Iseon glanced down then looked up.

“…I think I need to grow a bit to handle the Goblin’s bat, so could we do it when I’m ready…?”

[Unexpected. I was nervously expecting a refusal.]

“…You know, marrying an idol is the ultimate dream of a fan. Even if I can’t marry, there are other things… ehehe.”

[What if I take off the mask?]

“Eek.”

Yoon Iseon genuinely looked disgusted.

“No matter how handsome, I’m a fan of the Goblin. Sorry, ‘Teacher Do’.”

[Am I being rejected?]

“Yes. You’ve been rejected. I’m Goblin one pick.”

[This is an interesting experience. Well, good. As long as you cooperate with me. I’m counting on you to draw aggro while I’m abroad.]

“Yes. …Oh, by the way, what’s the occasion for going abroad?”

[That’s.]

Classified.

[I usually wouldn’t say, but since you’ve joined the society, I’ll tell you.]

Classified, but.

[I’m going to annihilate the Pandemonium’s Southeast Asia branch.]

It’s okay to tell Yoon Iseon.

[Returning as the society’s executioner, as a Villain executioner.]

“……Will I be able to see last year’s Goblin!!”

[Yes.]

“Wow…! To see again the Goblin from those days without blood or tears…! That’s awesome!”

This woman.

She had been my fan since I was a C-class.
