I Became the Academy’s Kibitz Villain

Chapter 128: Do Ji-hwan's Ambitious Project (5)

At that moment,

In a luxurious room resembling a penthouse, a blonde girl lay on a vast bed big enough for at least ten people to lie together. She stared blankly at the ceiling.

“Yawn.”

The girl was almost 140 cm tall, quite small in stature. Despite her small size, the clothes she wore were more provocative than those of a grown adult. However, no one else except the girl was in the spacious room.

“Baek Seol-hee. Yumir.”

As the girl uttered the names of two people, holograms flickered on the ceiling, revealing their figures instantly.

The hologram screen displayed various information about them. Text, photos, videos, and even reports from various superpower research institutes were flipped through one by one.

“Both seem fine. One with an S-class Ice type, the other with an EX-grade ability to steal demonic powers.”

The girl briefly ran her hand through her hair.

“It would usually be a situation where I’d have to beg them to join us, but if they join us this easily, it’s a whole different story.”

Where the girl’s hand passed, the hair briefly turned black, then reverted to blonde as she removed her hand.

“Yawn.”

[Chairwoman?]

A sparkling popup window appeared at the bottom of the screen.

“What’s up, Gunggi?”

[About the call you received during the meeting, is it from Manager Do?]

“Yes, that’s right. You heard it, too, since you were there. It seems like Manager Do got tangled up with various excuses during the operation and ended up calling me.”

[You figured that out from just that one sentence…?]

“Usually, if they call me, it’s to ask for adjustments.”

The girl shrugged her shoulders lightly.

“But it’s impressive, isn’t it? To seduce two S-class heroes within just two months of infiltrating Sejong Island Academy. That’s Manager Do for you.”

[I’m just worried that the heroes might catch on.]

“If they catch on, Manager Do will just show off his charm more aggressively. He’s the Goblin, after all, using every means possible to persuade others and turn it to the Secret Society’s advantage. And considering that he’s part of this as well.”

[Isn’t that the same for you, Chairwoman?]

“Yes, it is. That’s why I’m so relaxed about this.”

The girl kept smiling cheerfully, but Gunggi only showed anxiety.

[What if they betray the Secret Society and side with the heroes-]

“Gunggi.”

The girl lowered her voice while still smiling.

“The Goblin doesn’t betray.”

[… I’m sorry. That was out of line.]

“It’s fine. It must be strange and awkward for you, with a newbie who suddenly covered so much ground in just six months.”

[No, that’s not what I meant.]

“Or are you jealous? Of Baek Seol-hee and Yumir, the two S-classes?”

[…We can handle the Goblin on our own.]

“I doubt that.”

Gunggi’s words made the girl cross her legs and shake her head firmly.

“Didn’t you see how things turned out from Christmas to the New Year holidays? The Goblin isn’t someone to be taken lightly. He’s too much for just the five of us.”

[But if we try…!]

“There are things we can overcome with effort and things we can’t. Can you confidently win 1:1 against the Goblin, even though we’re losing 5:1?”

[… That’s why we’re all looking for a way. All of us executives are looking for a physical way to handle the Goblin…]

“You can’t win. I assure you. He’s the strongest in the world, even deserving of an EX rank in that respect. You saw it yourself recently.”

Gunggi coughed awkwardly and turned her head away.

“I get you’re jealous, but you’re lucky. It was by chance, but the Goblin went to support your work. And even got a better union than the night shift.”

[Chairwoman!!]

Gunggi yelled out.

[Ah, sorry, I shouldn’t have raised my voice…!]

“No, no. Talking with you all like this is always novel and fun for me. The way you virgins who were always plotting to devour me are now acting like wives with hairpins, it’s cute.”

[Uh…!]

Gunggi’s face turned as red as her hair, and the girl gave a faint smile and a thumbs-up.

“You won’t be meeting the Goblin often in the future. As soon as the October Travel matter is settled, return to Korea immediately. You’ll need to take charge of the foreigner area in Gangwon Province, including Gangneung.”

[Me, take charge of Gangwon Province…?]

“Yes. And as others take charge of their regions, if the Goblin goes to Gangwon Province, please support him well on-site. I can’t enter Korea.”

[I will do my best to follow your orders, Chairwoman.]

“Good. Do it well, and I’ll reward you greatly. Later… maybe about a month after Chuseok.”

The girl stroked her lower abdomen and began to comfortably tidy up the screen on the ceiling.

“Gaecheonjeol. The day the heavens open. On that day, I’ll give you the ‘union’ you all want. From me.”

[…!!]

“It’s true. It’s Gaecheonjeol, a national holiday, a day of celebration for the country.”

[Like a new heaven opening. I understand. I hope everything goes as planned, and I’ll finish up the work with Feygreen. I’ll report as soon as there’s a change. Glory to the world that will become one.]

“Glory to the world that will become one.”

Beep.

The popup window closed.

The girl waved goodbye to Gunggi on the screen and then turned her head to the side.

Outside was filled with darkness.

It looked like the inner part of an underground place where not even sunlight could enter, but the girl closed her eyes, looking out at the light from her room.

“Yeah, as if we could handle that monster on our own.”

The girl stretched and lay back down on the bed.

“At least five more women are needed to handle it.”

Click.

“That’s how I’ll survive.”

As the girl closed her eyes, the sound of a mechanism turned, and music began to play.

“If I have to handle that monster alone, I’ll really die.”

Classical music.

“Baek Seol-hee, Yumir. …I wonder if they can handle it. Huhuhu.”

Brahms’s ‘Rain Song’ softly filled the room inside the penthouse.

And then.

[Honey?]

“……”

Almost at sunset, hours later, the girl chuckled at the call she received.

“Of course, it would be.”

It was over.

When I checked the time, it was already close to 5 PM.

“…….”

I turned my head.

There, Baek Seol-hee and Yumir were lying down, sleeping peacefully with their eyes closed.

Well, nothing much happened.

I just had a long talk with the two of them, listening to how much they think about this country and this world.

Swoosh.

I took out a wet wipe and wiped the sweat off their bodies.

Even though it was April, they were sweaty from our conversation during the day. I wiped off their sweat with a wet wipe as best as I could to prevent them from feeling uncomfortable, then threw it in the trash.

“Sigh.”

While the two were resting, I picked up the Taeguk Watch on the desk and stepped outside.

I didn’t want to kick the Taeguk Watch inside the room and cause an accident, so I put on the watch in the kitchen and made a call.

“Ah, hello? Yes, it’s me.”

[As expected.]

“Huh?”

[Just thinking how long you’d last… So, half a day?]

“Yeah, that’s how it turned out. They’re both knocked out, sleeping like they’re unconscious.”

[…Really? Hehe.]

Was the low laughter due to joy that things turned out as expected?

Or a signal to have a serious conversation as per our fixed appointment?

[Was it good for you, our Manager?]

“…Always grateful. Thanks to you, honey.”

[Was I on speakerphone?]

“No. Just in case.”

[I see.]

On the other side of the call, they talked to me as usual, but I had to keep my words as they were.

[If they can hear the speaker’s sound, you should be more careful.]

“It’s not that. They can’t get up right now. I’m certain.”

[If the Manager says so, I trust you. Do you think the two will join the Secret Society?]

“Not at all.”

I took out a bottle of bokbunja (Korean black raspberry wine) and filled a glass with it, taking a sip.

“…One realized it but decided to stick to their own will, and the other, though clueless, is not someone who can be persuaded.”

[Then, the only way is through charm. Try to entangle them well. If something goes wrong, immediately…]

“I’ll pack up everything and go back to my hometown. But it’d be a pity to leave just like that, so I’ll have to pack up the biggest treasure as well.”

[Oh my. Are you planning a kidnapping?]

“If necessary.”

Baek Seol-hee.

Yumir.

If the situation got dire and I couldn’t maintain Do Ji-hwan any longer, I’d forcibly take the two to the Secret Society.

Whether they were the main character or the heroine, being kidnapped or imprisoned by the enemy organization was a predestined course.

[Got it. Um, just one question before hanging up. Who’s better, the white cow or the yellow cow?]

“…….”

The call duration was approaching three minutes.

“Who’s better?”

I brought my hand to my mouth.

“You.”

Smooch.

I hung up first on this side and then downed the rest of the bokbunja in one gulp.

“……Maybe I should make dinner.”

I decided to prepare dinner for the two of them while they woke up, showered, and came out.

Especially.

Food high in iron.
