Turning back time, before Joint Academy was officially announced.
"Ah, so just say let's do that when such talk comes up!"
As if frustrated, Irina strikes the table with one hand.
Naturally, that table cracks and collapses.
The problem here is this table was made from monster byproducts.
A table made from materials that humanity's firearms can't even scratch.
Even if A-rank ability users came and wielded magical power, just some scratches would appear.
But Irina smashed that table with one hand.
"No... Just. First calm down and listen to our story."
A man wearing simultaneous translator in his ear continues as if frustrated.
"We haven't even heard anything official! At most, just stories passing by! There's nothing officially announced, but coming and doing this is really troublesome, you know?"
Another man beside him, who kept saying 'calm down,' takes it up.
"And we have eyes too - it's strange to openly claim construction location as Korea."
"What's wrong with that? You guys openly receive lobbying anyway. Can't you do it with that?"
"Holy shit. That's why it's stranger. Why would Korea lobby us?!"
"Don't know. Anyway, do it."
At Irina's crazy insistence, various men and women gathered sighed as if dumbfounded.
The identity of those who suddenly faced the crazy blonde storm was none other than American S-ranks.
Excluding those away on missions and those with unavoidable personal circumstances,
Irina managed to call all the rest before her.
Why did S-ranks come? Obviously because troublesome things happening is bothersome.
Meeting Irina is bothersome too, but refusing requests would obviously be more bothersome!
"Are you only doing this to us? Or..."
"Already went to Japan, China, Russia. Came here next."
"Hey, this is a bit disappointing? Should have come to America first!"
"My choice. Just took any nearby portal, so don't complain."
While saying that, Irina slightly jutted out her chin as if asking what they'll do.
Her meaning: this is my will, do you have hearts to help?
"Just ask one thing. How are other S-ranks reacting?"
"Russia already helped a few times so they said okay without much talk. China and Japan got slightly twisted but eventually resolved through conversation!"
Saying conversation while showing Irina's fist.
To someone it might be cute behavior from an absolute beauty,
But to those who know everything, it was the devil's hand from hell itself.
Though curses like fucking, crazy came out, Irina didn't care.
She's eaten so many curses anyway. And since being crazy is fact, she's immune!
"Good. If official talk really comes out, we'll support Korea's side."
"Oh. Really? Thanks!"
"Instead, if Joint Academy is really established, you must also drop by occasionally. And look after kids we'll send. Ah! Not just looking. Help for skill improvement!"
If she really just watches, this side won't stay still either.
Though it was an S-rank's threat, Irina just smiled.
"Ahaha! Got it, got it. If that's your wish, I'll do so. But if you want something, there's compensation to match, you know? Be prepared for an insanely difficult process."
"Of course. Would we not prepare for injuries learning from that crazy bitch?"
"Funny. Our oppa would be better than me."
Then who? and oppa? questions came almost simultaneously.
'Seems translation got slightly strange.'
Thinking briefly, Irina decided to correct the word oppa.
Though Baek Seojin might say nothing's certain yet,
Thinking about it, we've already mixed bodies, so it's strange if it's not certain!
"What? What the fuck?"
"Holy shit. Did I mishear something just now?"
Reactions of confusion, not congratulations, pouring from all sides.
"Why are these guys reacting ? Hey. Can't I even date someone?!"
"No... Look, Irina. It's that confusing, so they're like that."
"Bro's right. Who would imagine you getting a lover?"
Damn, curses came naturally, but thinking about it, couldn't refute either.
It's true that with her damn troublesome personality, she was everyone's avoidance target.
"More than that, who's the lover? Is the lover perhaps your academy faculty?"
"No. That's not it - Silver rank examiner. S-rank Baek Seojin."
"Silver rank means... wait. Is Silver rank perhaps your academy's highest rank?"
"No? Rather, it was originally the lower side."
"Huh? But such work is being done by someone like us, S-rank?"
That question applies equally to all other S-ranks.
S-ranks are nations' top military power and strongest elite,
But that S-rank isn't the highest rank examiner but lower side examiner?
"Hey. Come see later. Rather, there are many good things because of that."
Bragging about how amazing my lover is,
Irina succeeded once more in recruiting other S-ranks.
Greeting Irina who arrived back in Korea via portal was Kim Suhyeon.
She wore not her usual academy uniform but an elegant suit dripping with class.
"Got like that talking about this and that."
Since being late was fact, Irina didn't add more.
Additionally, now isn't time to fight over such things.
"You. Did you talk well with the old man's acquaintances?"
"Yes. Nothing difficult. Most are disciples or acquaintances of those disciples."
"Convenient. I knew that old man's connections were wide, but to this extent."
"Not someone who waves around when feeling bad like someone else."
Irina knows well who that someone refers to.
But getting angry here would definitely be a losing picture, so she just sighed.
Actually, she also thinks maybe she was too excessive lately.
"First, those people said while there wasn't no such talk, it won't be very difficult. Just pulling the schedule forward is slightly problematic, but if S-ranks move together like Irina promised, it won't be difficult."
"Of course they would. To use an analogy, it's almost like main forces agreeing to share intentions."
Political and social atmosphere was appropriately set under Kim Suhyeon's leadership,
Each country's main ability users were captured by Irina's request-like threats.
Plus talks were already coming up, so there wouldn't be much resistance.
"Seems like it'll go well?"
"Yes. Each country was already feeling the necessity. Joint Academy would allow legally knowing other countries' ability users' know-how and information about their dungeons and monsters."
"Plus if they can improve their own ability users' skills, even better."
Indeed, whether people or society, they move when there's benefit.
Thinking that, Irina glanced at Kim Suhyeon and spoke.
"So. What are you thinking?"
"It's natural to move when there's benefit. Of course it could be work thinking of oppa, but looking at this, you also seem to have something you want?"
Then Kim Suhyeon smiles and nods.
"I'm going to tell the Examiner to break up with Irina."
"Hey, are you seriously..."
Originally, Irina would joke and Kim Suhyeon would seriously get hurt,
Now it's reversed with Irina being the one getting hurt.
Is this really that timid Kang Minseong's granddaughter from before?
Seojin oppa. You created a witch, Irina muttered while waiting for the next words.
"I'm planning to ask for things to be done more roughly."
For a moment, Irina unconsciously had strange thoughts.
And did Kim Suhyeon instinctively catch that inner thought?
She makes a displeased expression asking what she's doing and shakes her head.
"Don't think strange things. I want to get stronger quickly. So, to get stronger that quickly, I need corresponding hardship and effort. So I'll ask the Examiner to teach more harshly."
Damn. Did some perverted spirit possess me? She unconsciously slaps her cheek.
Kim Suhyeon, who briefly watched such Irina, shrugs.
"As expected, you seem like you'll make 'that' request."
"Wh-what am I requesting!"
"You know while pretending not to."
Can't say no. It was true.
She wanted to share that pleasant, happy love between man and woman again.
Just when a good reason appeared, she was going to strongly request Baek Seojin,
But if Kim Suhyeon suddenly comes out , it becomes awkward to make such requests.
'This makes me look like a vulgar woman who's the only one horny!'
Irina never tensed before monsters, villains, or fellow ability users.
That was an appearance possible because she had confidence she'd definitely win.
But Kim Suhyeon's case is different. Victory isn't decided by her but by Baek Seojin.
If she shows more impressive appearance to Baek Seojin like now, that's victory!
"Why are you like that? Request what you want. Irina will really want that, so tell the Examiner. Then the Examiner will sigh but accept it. Unlike me."
Hearing that, Irina decided to completely revise her plan.
Looking at what Kim Suhyeon's doing, seems like trying to get higher scores in other areas. Get full chapters from n͟o͟v͟e͟l͟f͟i͟r͟e͟.net
If she comes out like that, she also has various cards she's never used!
"Good, then. I'll go with that."
"Academy training instructor position."
Kim Suhyeon makes a slightly flustered voice.
Natural thing. Irina who hates 'work'!
"You're stating requirements just for yourself. I'm stating requirements for students. How's that, isn't this pretty good?"
Irina smiles thinking she landed a hit this time.
And this time Kim Suhyeon had the expression of being hit conversely.
