I Become a Mafia in the Academy

Chapter 243

Ever since dungeons have existed in the world, Awakened have been a measure of a nation's strength.

In other words, a strong Awakened is literally a valuable resource for a nation.

As such, nations have tried to entice powerful Awakened to stay in their countries by offering them incredible perks.

But

There's one Awakened who kicked all those perks to the curb and naturalized in another country with nothing but love and romance.

He was born in a cold country, but found himself in the warmth of a faraway land.

If his past love was the first snow in the dead of winter, his future love was the warm spring breeze from the south.

Yes, he fell in love with Busan, the new land that gave him everything.

He fell in love with Busan.is the story of a man named Young Hoham in City of Seoul.

He's a character who's often shown to have a boisterous personality in the game, so I thought it would be fun to meet him in real life..

Thats it!

"What? Oh, it's an affogato."

Affogato. A dessert of ice cream topped with espresso.

"Don't stay there! You'll be left behind!"

Young Hoham grabbed the affogato that Jin-woo was holding and began to forcibly mix the affogato and espresso with a spoon.

"Gahhhhh!"

Jin-woo's expression turned to horror, as if the world had fallen apart.

"There! That's it!"

Jin-woo cries as he is handed back his completely disheveled affogato.

It's definitely quite a shock the first time it happens.

I was also quite shocked when my food was forcibly shredded with vinegar and cabbage when I visited Busan in the past.

Eventually, Jin-woo drinks' the affogato and the kids pull back their own drinks while watching the scene.

Kang Hyun, who had been watching the whole thing, was just drinking her latte, which had been completely mixed with whipped cream and turned into an affogato, as if she was used to it.

I'm going to have to intervene here.

"Young Hoham, I was wondering if we should talk about the dungeon."

"Huh? Awww, thats right! We're here to talk about the dungeon, so let's talk about it Without drinking too much!"

"Ah, yes!"

Apparently not liking the way Jin-woo was slowly sipping his drink, Hoham forced him to drink it and continued his story.

"I heard that you're the ones who secure the dungeon, is that right?"

"Yep. We've secured a dungeon on one of the beaches on the East Sea, which used to be a military zone, so it's hard for outsiders to get in, let alone out."

It was Kwak Chun-sik who helped secure the dungeon.

He has been active throughout Gangwon Province for a long time, and his influence is unimaginable there.

Talking about the president as if it were his own brother was a direct demonstration of his influence.

"Military zone? Heeya. You have good connections. Get me a good hotel and a dungeon in the military zone. Do you want to be friends with me?"

"Eh?"

"Do you know Yeongsu Ham in Seomyeon? If you come to play with me, I'll give you a full Busan course of ham. You understand?"

"Ah, yes."

"Hahahaha! I'm glad you answered so well, Kuma! Then, shall we go right away?"

With a satisfied smile, he stood up from his seat.

"Uh, yes. The hotel has a rental car, so I think we can take that."

"A transportation service? Great! Let's go, guys, let's go, hehehehe!"

The kids stare after him, dumbfounded by his demeanor.

Kang Hyun is the only one who stands up from his seat.

"You'll get used to it."

After saying that to us, he stood up from his seat and started to follow Young Hoham.

No, not that.

"the car is not ready yet."

Where the hell are they going?

* * *

Eventually, after waiting 10 minutes in front of the hotel, I was able to get into the car that the hotel had prepared.

"Heh heh heh heh, I knew it, but you're rich!"

His wide backside made the first compartment, which was supposed to be for three people, full.

Two of his victims were pressed against his shoulders as a result.

"It's cramped!"

"."

Kang Hyun, who was bending over as much as he could with an expressionless face, and Jin-woo, who was struggling to stay alive, were the epitome of the familiar and the unfamiliar.

"We'll be there in a little while, Jin-woo, you just hold on."

"Hmph, hmph, hmph!"

What can I say, Young Hoham is a physically superior hero, but we, Jin-woo, have to take it.

Finally, we arrived at the military zone.

After stopping the car in front of a checkpoint, Jin-woo lets out a harsh breath and looks around.

"Wow, I thought I was getting squeezed."

"Heh heh heh, don't you envy my shoulders! Do you want to learn a workout from me?"

"Oh, no, I'm good!"

"Really? That's too bad."

The two of them seemed to have already gotten comfortable with each other through physical contact.

I smiled wryly at the sight and approached the soldier at the checkpoint at the front gate.

"I'm Eugene Han, one of Master Kwak Chun-siks disciples. We're supposed to attack the dungeon on the beach today."

"Ah, yes. I've heard about it. Could you give me a moment to check?"

Then, a soldier walked inside the checkpoint.

-Crow Crow. This is Bond. Bond. The guests the battalion commander told us about this morning are here.

-Open the front gate.

-OK.

The massive front gate swings open with a click.

For a moment, a chilling memory flashed through my mind, but I shook it off.

Students at the Seoul Hero Academy are exempt from the military by performing community service before graduation.

For example, dungeon-raiding activities like this one count as alternative military service.

"Ahhh! It's been a while since I've been in the countryside, so my nostrils are fresh!"

Young Hoham stretches his arms and enjoys the fresh air inside the army, while the children look around as if the country air is different.

Just like that, we crossed the asphalt road and entered the dirt road. I started to feel the salty sea air from the tip of my nose.

The pine forest stretched as if to surround the beach.

The beach I reached through them seemed to depict the ocean itself, which I had only seen in my imagination.

"Wow, the sea !"

Se-ah beamed.

The other children were also excited to see it for themselves and started running toward the beach.

It's hard not to get excited when you see it.

Pure white sand and a blue sea that goes all the way to the horizon, and the beach is so empty that no one is there.

If I'm excited, what about the other kids?

"Eugene, can we go in the ocean? Yes? Yes?"

Se-ah is already bouncing around in place like she can't wait.

I glance over at Young Hoham, who shrugs his shoulders and smiles as if it doesn't matter.

Probably means it doesn't matter.

We were going to use it for the rest of the day anyway, so a little playtime wouldn't hurt.

I reached into the cube and summoned a tent-like shade.

"If you brought a swimsuit, you can change in here."

"I'm wearing it inside, I'm fine!"

But it's Jin-woo, who throws off his clothes, and runs toward the sea first.

"Wah~! Bada-da-ah-ah!"

A sudden dropkick sends Jin-woo flying into the sand.

"Before you swim, you have to do warm-ups!"

I think he got killed by a dropkick before warm-ups.

Look at him. The waves are still hitting his head, but he's not moving.

I look at him and sigh.

"Mmmmmso good~!"

Meanwhile, Se-ah quickly finished changing and stepped out.

She wore a pure white rash guard and skirt that wraps around the body, and even a beige straw hat whose origin is unknown.

She was dressed as if she had come to play.

"What's going on with Jin-woo?"

Se-ah looked at Jin-woo, who was lying on the beach in the distance.

"He got his ass kicked by Young Hoham for not doing warm-ups."

"What?! Uh warm-ups, of course you have to do them!"

Well, you weren't going to do it.

I could tell by the way she cringed as soon as she heard me.

Then I naturally slipped into the space between Young Hoham and Kang Hyun, who were doing warm-ups.

I guess I should do warm-ups too.'

I took off all my outerwear and joined the warm-ups ranks, wearing a windbreaker hoodie and swim trunks.

I finish the first set of exercises with ease.

"Young-jae, Jin-woo doesn't want to get up, take care of him."

"Oh, right."

Only after the warm-ups were over did he float back to the surface. In response, Young-jae formed a stream of water in his hand and shot it at Jin-woos face.

"Pupupupupupupup!"

Jin-woo let out a strange sound and scrambled to his feet.

"Huh? What is it, did I fall in the water? I don't remember!"

Jin-woo suddenly starts to speak in strange words.

"Jin-woo, stop talking weird and come do some warm-ups."

"What? What's warm-ups?"

He stops talking and at the end of his gaze, I can see Young Hoham's murderous face.

"We have to do it. Warm-ups! Do it!"

Just then, Choi Yeon, who was the last one to enter the locker room, came out with a loud bang.

"I don't see anyone in the water yet. You looked excited."

She came out with her hood pulled up and her hands in her pockets and muttered as she looked out over the already noisy scene.

"Well, it's the ocean, so it's only natural to be excited. Oh, and do some warm-ups before you go in the ocean."

"I know, I wouldn't want to get hit by one of those either."

Even Choi Yeon is afraid of Young Hoham.

Well, I'm kind of scared too, so it's not weird.

"We're done with the warm-ups, can we go in?"

"Hamo, wait a minute."

Young Hoham approaches Jin-woo, who is ready to dive into the ocean at any moment.

"What's up, Mr. Young Hoham? Why are you suddenly asking me to."

"Hehe."

"Huh? Huh? Now, wait a minute, what the-"

"Degazaiit!"

Young Ho-Ham, who had just lifted Jin-woo up like he was pulling a weed, threw him straight into the sea.

"Uaaaaaah!"

Jin-woo screams in response, flying towards the ocean in a giant parabola.

Kwaaaaaaang!!!

With a sound like a bomb exploding and a huge column of water behind him, Jin-woo flies into the ocean, leaving everyone stunned.

"This is funny!!!"

Jin-woo cheers as he pops up out of the water.

"Right?!"

Young Hoham chuckles, grinning from ear to ear.

Was it the sight of him? Choi Yeon started walking toward Young Hoham, mesmerized.

Apparently, she wants him to throw her too.

If I do it wrong, I'll get hurtwhile I'm thinking about it.

"Huh?"

For some reason a giant triangular thing swooped in behind Jin-woo.

Hmm. It must be an illusion, right?
