Chapter Title: The Academy's Savior
-----------------------------------------------------------------
I headed to the Hero Association's Korean branch in Seoul with Sung Ha-ri.
Sung Ha-ri didn't say a word, but her purpose was obvious.
'She wants to test just how strong my awakened abilities are.'
In this world, once you awaken, you're required to visit the Association for a test. Especially for young children, since there's a risk of their powers going out of control, they have to receive the Association's measures.
"...!"
Sung Ha-ri, who had been walking while holding my hand, suddenly stopped. She frowned at a middle-aged man standing in front of the building.
Sung Ha-ri started moving again, trying to ignore him, but the man spoke to her first.
"Ha-ri. Isn't ignoring me even after seeing me a bit much?"
Sung Han-gu.
He was the young head of the Jinryeong Sung Clan, one of Korea's prestigious families and a steady producer of spirit users.
He was Sung Ha-ri's father—and my maternal grandfather.
"We're not close enough to exchange greetings. It ended years ago when I left the family."
"No matter how hard you try to sever ties, you can't break the bonds heaven has given. Your name is still on the family registry. ...And that child's name was added four years ago."
"...Are you kidding? Bringing up the registry now changes nothing."
"No. If you wanted, it could change. Come back with your son."
"So you showed up in front of me because of Yu-jin after all."
"... ."
Sung Han-gu didn't deny it.
In the original story, Sung Ha-ri and the Jinryeong Sung Clan never got along. The fact that they were facing each other like this now was definitely because of me.
Sung Ha-ri tried to pass him and enter the Association building, but he blocked her path and looked at me.
"Nice to meet you. So you're my grandson. Sung Yu-jin, right? I've heard the stories. Seeing my grandson at my age stirs special feelings."
"...Grandma?"
Sung Ha-ri gripped my hand tightly.
"Yu-jin. That man's a bad person. Don't look at him or talk to him."
"Okay."
"...This is too much. You won't even let me talk to my grandson?"
"Did you get some plastic surgery while we weren't talking? Your face has gotten a lot thicker."
"Someone once said that the older you get, the more shameless you become. Experience has proven that true."
"...Don't follow us."
"I have business at the Association too."
Sung Ha-ri shot Sung Han-gu a sharp glare before turning her head away. She knew fighting here would be pointless.
'Sung Han-gu's goal is to confirm my ability test. The Jinryeong Sung Clan has already pulled strings at the Association, so even Sung Ha-ri can't do much about it.'
And it seemed Sung Ha-ri didn't see Sung Han-gu as an archenemy or anything.
'Let's check the status window.'
A trust level of 55 on our first meeting. He already felt more than just goodwill toward me.
I was surprised by the unexpectedly high number.
'He looks so gruff; I figured it'd be around 20.'
But he was just a guy, so I didn't pay it much mind.
Support from the Jinryeong Sung Clan? I could grow without that. If anything, they might hold me back.
'More importantly, this test. I need to show them clearly. Just how amazing I am.'
Hide my power?
Why would I?
Power has to be shown to mean anything.
Aurora Simulator.
This hyper-advanced composite magic simulator protected the user by overlaying virtual reality onto the real world.
It was mostly used for training and sparring, and installing one required enormous funds, manpower, and a land called a Dragon Vein with mana density over 30%.
"Yu-jin. You know what to do, right? Call out your owl friend and order it to beat the monster. Got it?"
Han So-hee said from beside me. I was currently standing in the training room with the Aurora Simulator installed.
"Yeah. Just summon the owl?"
"Right. Summon it and tell it to attack the monster."
"Okay."
I glanced at the wall. Sung Ha-ri was watching with a stiff expression. I could tell from her face that she was worried about me.
A bit away from Sung Ha-ri, Sung Han-gu watched with a serious look.
Han So-hee didn't leave my side, in case of emergencies. Even with the virtual overlay on reality, there was still a chance of serious injury.
Thud!
A monster appeared in midair and crashed to the floor.
A reddish-brown wooden monster. Its branches writhed like tentacles.
'Gotta act surprised.'
I couldn't forget I was supposed to be just a four-year-old kid.
"Yu-jin. Can you do it? It's okay to give up if you're scared."
"I can. Moka!!"
Moka.
The name I gave my contracted Thunder Owl.
"Kuu!"
Moka materialized above my head. It spread its large white wings and circled me in the air.
"Moka! Lightning Tackle!"
"Kuu!"
Blue lightning sparked around Moka's body. It charged at the wooden monster like a bolt itself.
Moka pierced part of the wooden monster's body. The monster swung its branches at Moka, but Moka had already escaped into the air.
"Lightning!"
"Kuuuuk!"
At my command, Moka dropped a thunderbolt on the wooden monster.
Flames erupted on the wooden monster's body. It thrashed wildly but was soon engulfed in fire and stopped moving. The corpse vanished without a trace.
"Yu-jin! Amazing!"
"Amazing?"
"Of course! Not just anyone can do that! Yu-jin really is a genius!"
"Yeah."
"Then shall we try another monster? You can do it, right Yu-jin?"
"Moka's strong. I can do it."
The test wasn't over. They even tested my physical abilities afterward.
Sung Han-gu watched Sung Yu-jin's test to the end and nodded.
His skill in handling spirits was unbelievable for a four-year-old. Thunder spirits were notoriously willful and hard to control, yet he perfectly commanded the Thunder Owl.
'His physical abilities are lacking..., but awakening so early makes that unavoidable.'
Physical prowess was part of talent but could be grown through training, so it wasn't an issue.
'What matters isn't physical ability.'
Spirits.
Control over spirits.
And mana.
'Is that really a Thunder Owl? Its power is almost mid-tier.'
It wasn't strange. Spirits had individual differences, just like humans.
'But strong ones have high pride and are hard to control. Yet Yu-jin controls it perfectly.'
The control was flawless. Throughout the test, the Thunder Owl never disobeyed Sung Yu-jin once.
'He even has enough mana to maintain it for over five minutes.'
Overall, Sung Yu-jin could only be called a genius.
'And on top of that.'
Sung Yu-jin could use lightning himself—not through the spirit, but directly. Just like his mother Sung Ha-ri.
It wasn't unusual. Children often inherited their parents' traits and talents.
'Trait: Spirit Eye (S)... Yu-jin must become a spirit user.'
In the training room, Sung Yu-jin wrapped his tiny fist in lightning and punched a wooden dummy.
Bam!
Unbelievable destructive power for a child's punch. He'd temporarily amplified it with mana.
The test ended.
Sung Ha-ri rushed straight to Sung Yu-jin, while Sung Han-gu watched them embrace for a moment before pulling out his phone from his pocket and making a call.
"Yes, Father. I've confirmed Yu-jin's talent. Ha-ri was a genius, but she had no talent as a spirit user. But Yu-jin is different. I've confirmed his spirit user talent. The Thunder Owl contracted to Yu-jin is low-tier but has power beyond that. With Yu-jin, we won't need to look for a successor from the branch family."
Sung Han-gu's eyes flickered with visions of Sung Yu-jin as the family's future.
"...Yu-jin's father? As per the report. There are some candidates, but... no certainty. The surest way is if Ha-ri tells us herself. Though unlikely..."
Sung Han-gu let out a small sigh.
"No need for that. Even without us doing anything, Ha-ri and Yu-jin will come to the family. Ha-ri knows the Jinryeong Sung Clan is the best place in Korea to train a spirit user."
These were my current stats. Nothing had changed except mana.
The Association and others believed I had two traits. One was Spirit Eye. The other was Lightning. But Lightning wasn't a trait from this world's me—it was from the Playful Life app.
'Doesn't matter. What's important is they think I'm a genius.'
The Association and Jinryeong Sung Clan were interested in me, and Sung Ha-ri would worry about my future.
'For now, I...'
I took Han So-hee's hand and led her into the bathroom. Naturally, the women's room. At my age, it didn't matter which one I used.
"Noona!"
"Uh, y-yeah. Yu-jin. This is the bathroom. Someone might come... Hnng... ."
The moment we entered the stall, I clung to Han So-hee's leg and slipped my hand under her skirt. She pretended to resist for a second before sitting on the toilet.
I spread her legs. Pulled off her stockings and panties.
Her hairless white pussy glistened invitingly, as if eager for me.
"Yu-jin. Hurry. If we stay like this, Ha-ri will notice something's up."
"Okay."
I dropped my pants and pulled out my ever-growing cock.
Gulp.
Han So-hee swallowed dryly, spread her legs wide on the toilet, and thrust her pussy forward for easy entry.
"Noona!"
Squish!
I shoved my cock into her pussy. Han So-hee held my belly with both hands to keep me from falling. I thrust into her pussy wildly.
"Ah, aaah! Yu-jin! Ahn!"
"Noona! Feels good?"
"Haah. Feels good. Yu-jin. Haaang!"
Han So-hee bit her lower lip with half-lidded eyes, stifling her moans.
Squelch squelch.
Her juices flowed endlessly with every thrust. I smirked at her pleasured face and pinched her erogenous zone—her clit—with my fingers.
"Haaaak!"
Han So-hee's loud moan echoed out of the bathroom.
"So-hee? Everything okay?"
It was Sung Ha-ri's voice.
Han So-hee's eyelashes trembled in surprise.
"Ah, it's nothing. I just slipped for a second."
"Really? Be careful. But where's Yu-jin? I thought he went with you to the bathroom... Can't see him anywhere."
I stayed still, cock buried inside, looking up at Han So-hee. Her bobbed hair quickly dampened with sweat, sticking to her cheeks and neck.
"...Some staff were paying attention to Yu-jin earlier... Maybe he went to the staff lounge?"
"Maybe?"
Sung Ha-ri's footsteps faded away. Han So-hee let out a small sigh of relief. I leaned against her chest and started moving my hips.
Squish! Squish! Squish squish squish!
"Y-Yu-jin. Slower... Haaang."
I ripped open her shirt. Sucked on the pink nipple atop her perky B-cup breasts.
"Ahn. Ahh.... Yu-jin... Noona's gonna cum. Haaaak."
"Noona. Cum. Doesn't pinching here feel even better?"
"There...! Eeeuuung!!"
I gripped and twisted her clit harder than before, and her pussy squirted juices like a fountain.
"Aaah... We shouldn't be doing this... ."
Shouldn't? We'd crossed that line long ago.
