Chapter 821
Those who had thoroughly prepared for the midterms wished for the exams to pass as quickly as possible.
In contrast, the students who were less prepared wanted to delay the exam for at least one more day.
'I don’t think delaying it would really change the outcome.'
Regardless of whether they were prepared or not, everyone shared one common thought.
It was that they hoped the midterm period would end before the cherry blossoms at Eungwang High fell.
Perhaps because there were so many "tigers" taking the exam this time, the angel had demonstrated her genius by making the cherry blossoms bloom longer.
“I’m done with the exam! Luckily, it’s over before the cherry blossoms fall.”
Among the dormitory students, Sa-wol Se-eum finished her exams the earliest.
Looking at her elective subjects, it didn’t seem like she had strategically chosen them to shorten the exam period, but she was lucky.
'Finishing the exam early means she must’ve taken several exams back-to-back. I wonder if she was okay with that.'
Taking multiple exams in a day is hard to prepare for.
However, Sa-wol Se-eum seemed to have had a relatively relaxed time this exam, and her self-grading results were good.
She revealed her secret.
“Actually, I joined a study group made by the 'Wanted Fugitive Choi Pyeon-deuk Hunt Party.' It's a simple study group where we share self-study time, and the motivational phrases shared there helped me a lot.”
Sa-wol Se-eum introduced the study party she had joined.
On the hologram, a familiar name appeared.
[We won’t forget, the Hunt Party that works hard while mocking the wanted fugitive Choi Pyeon-deuk (10/10)]
[Choi Pyeon-deuk Mocking Party 2 (10/10)]
[ᄎᄑᄃ ᄁᄑ 3 (10/10)]
[4 (10/10)]
[5 (10/10)]
......
'It looks like there are more than last year?'
Looking at the party recruitment board, there seemed to be more Choi Pyeon-deuk-related parties.
Logically speaking, those who were harmed by Choi Pyeon-deuk had mostly graduated, so shouldn’t it have decreased?
Sa-wol Se-eum was also curious about this and asked the study group leader.
“I heard that because he received many citations for hunting multiple criminals, his recognition grew. A lot of people aiming to become bounty hunters joined. There were even some first-year students, though not many.”
She had thought that after everyone related to Choi Pyeon-deuk graduated, that party would disappear.
But after hearing Sa-wol Se-eum’s words, it seemed like the Choi Pyeon-deuk hunting parties would continue.
“I joined the study group this time, but after a little combat training, I’m thinking about joining the hunt and tracking activities! Would you like to join, Yishin?”
When I said I would participate if the time matched, Sa-wol Se-eum was very happy.
I was curious about what kind of things they did to catch long-wanted criminal players, so it might be good to join them at least once.
Sa-wol Se-eum had finished her exams, but the other dormitory students still had exams left.
......
In the dormitory study room, Han-yi, with a pale face, was staring at the hologram.
Han-yi was facing the upcoming exam on Otherworld Environments and Enemy Ecosystems by Gong Cheong-hwon.
Seeing Han-yi’s struggles, I briefly thought about passing it over to Jin Jeong-muk, the Murim warrior, but Han-yi shook his head.
“Jin Jeong-muk understands well after one explanation, so he doesn’t need much help.”
From Han-yi’s explanation, it seemed that Jin Jeong-muk was a good student except for his slow writing speed.
During the midterm preparation, Jin Jeong-muk used his break time to ask a few short questions, not stealing Han-yi’s study time.
Moreover, Jin Jeong-muk actually helped Han-yi.
“I got help from Jin Jeong-muk when reading the paper included in the exam scope. He helped me with the complex sentences that couldn’t even be read well by the translation app.”
At the Eungwang High festival, Gong Je-in had made the following comments when introducing the piece:
— The Yong Je-geon I remember is a free spirit, but after flying, I thought he would definitely return to the ground.
— But now, it seems like he’ll just go straight to the sky.
However, since Yong Je-geon’s mind had completely changed, Gong Je-in’s feelings also changed.
Thus, a new version was born.
Gong Je-in gave the new arrangement the subtitle “On The Ground,” implying that Yong Je-geon would live on the ground instead of ascending.
After hearing this from Kwon Rena, Mo Guraem, who had barely regained his composure, asked:
“Thank you for the wonderful performance. But why did you suddenly play this?”
“I wanted to give you a present. Do you remember when you listened to the original song and immediately made sheet music and gave it to me? That’s why I chose the rearranged version of this piece!”
She didn’t just choose the song because it was a new release, but because it was somehow related to Mo Guraem.
I was deeply moved by the thoughtfulness Kwon Rena put into the selection process.
Mo Guraem seemed completely unaware that Kwon Rena had played it for him.
“Thank you for helping me with this exam. Thanks to you, my preparation was easier, and I was able to practice the violin performance. For the second song, it’s the one Gong Je-in senior performed at Huangmyeong theme park... Uram?”
Mo Guraem, unable to endure it anymore, slowly closed his eyes on the couch.
Just listening to the muse’s performance seemed overwhelming, but realizing that it was played just for him might have been too much for him to handle.
“I guess we’ll have to save the second song for next time.”
As Kwon Rena’s violin skills improve day by day, it will be even harder to handle next time.
Mo Guraem was about to faint again soon.
Meanwhile, a device message arrived from the students whose exams had ended.
[Kim Yoori] Yishin, I checked the 1st-quarter student representative meeting prep materials you sent yesterday!
[Kim Yoori] I was going to prepare it first... thanks! >▽<
Kim Yoori always starts preparing for the student representative meeting as soon as exams are over and sends the materials right away.
I had always felt guilty about her preparing the meeting materials, so this time I prepared them during the exam period.
'I hope she can rest this time instead of preparing the materials.'
Since Kim Yoori is a key member of the student council, she has a lot to do, and I wanted to lighten her workload.
Right now, it’s okay since we have some time, but depending on the scenario, there may be times when I can’t help her, and I’m worried about that.
Besides Kim Yoori, another person from my class sent me a message.
[Dokgo Miro] (Link)
[Dokgo Miro] Listen to this.
Without any explanation, Dokgo Miro suddenly sent me a link.
Since Eungwang High’s overlord wouldn’t send a fishing link, I checked it without suspicion.
The link Dokgo Miro sent led to a trailer video of the much-hyped game released by SZ Games.
'The trailer for the open beta test of that god-tier game is out!'
That god-tier game, which received rave reviews during the closed beta test, is now about to start its open beta test.
After a short open beta test, it will immediately launch officially, and just like a god-tier game, they released a special trailer for the open beta test.
I remembered that Plamago also had a well-produced game trailer.
'Plamago also had a good game trailer.'
But because of the operation, gameplay, story, and more, Plamago ended up being a monumental failure.
If the game’s promotion hadn’t been so successful, or if the trailer had been poor, it wouldn’t have gained national fame as the failed game of the century.
Suppressing my bitter feelings, I pressed the play button.
'But Dokgo Miro said ‘listen to this,’ not ‘watch this,’ did he mean...?’
As soon as I pressed the play button, I heard a song sung in vowels without lyrics.
It was Dokgo Miro’s voice.
