I Became the Academy’s Kibitz Villain

“Let’s go to the pension.”

“Suddenly?”

“It’s not sudden. It’s just difficult to stay here any longer.”

Although the house in Seoul had various items, it’s safe to say that there were almost no living necessities here.

Correction.

There were basic living necessities, but they were somewhat more inconvenient than in a hotel.

The amount of items here was as small as when I first moved into the officetel, and the fridge was only stocked with chicken breast and other diet foods.

It was enough for a day or two, but staying here longer would be troublesome.

“I’m fine with it.”

Hyeon Se-rin replied while lying on the sofa, lazily eating mint chocolate ice cream. Since the fake Goblin incident had been somewhat sorted out, there was no particular reason to stay in Seoul.

“And I just took over a one-month rental at a pension.”

“Where?”

“Jeju Island.”

“Wow.”

At the mention of Jeju Island, Hyeon Se-rin’s ears perked up.

She put down the spoon she had scooped up a large bite of mint chocolate with and glanced at the screen I had synced to the TV, her eyes twinkling.

“Is this the place?”

“Yes. It’s a pension in the Seogwipo area. The surrounding management is well-maintained, and since it’s a place that primarily serves overseas VIPs, you don’t need to worry about the facilities.”

“True, I’ve heard that in Jeju, you have to be most careful about those things.”

Even in Korea, as it was a popular travel destination, the likelihood of strange devices being installed was high.

CCTVs were naturally installed all over Jeju Island.

No matter how much international criticism was thrown at Korea for its excessive use of CCTV infringing on privacy, CCTV continued to increase daily under the guise of maintaining public order and catching criminals.

We needed to go in advance and take care of those things.

“Then, we won’t need to fly in right away… You’ll have to join as a staff member later.”

“Right.”

“Was it because they needed an assistant staff member for the Jeju Library tour?”

“Exactly.”

Since Baek Seol-hee wanted to bring me to Jeju, I had to be dispatched to the Jeju branch as a librarian assistant for her summer course, “Learning Abilities through Classics.” 𝘳

“You really lucked out. Not only Baek Seol-hee but also being selected as staff accompanying a group of A-class students to Jeju.”

“I was just dumped with the task. Who would want to work during the students’ summer break? The university library is the quietest during the students’ summer break.”

In other words, when I officially entered Jeju, I would have to move along with the staff from Sejong Island.

“Oh, is that so? Hmm. The others must be bitter. They sent a rookie librarian with no expectations, and now, that librarian will have a fling with Baek Seol-hee in Jeju.”

“Foolish are the ones who miss opportunities when they arise.”

“Wasn’t the reason a librarian was needed because you’re a librarian?”

“That’s true.”

Baek Seol-hee deliberately created a library-related program to justify having a fling with me in Jeju.

“Poor students. They have no idea their professor created an extra course just to have an affair, and they’ll be studying that.”

“If that professor gets pregnant from the affair, she won’t be teaching in the second semester. Wouldn’t that be good for the students?”

“I heard Baek Seol-hee’s classes are easy. The course evaluations are really good.”

“No matter how good the professor is, university students won’t be happy about being called in during the summer break, even if it’s Baek Seol-hee.”

“Hmm… That’s true.”

Anyway.

It seemed she’s planning to retire after our encounter in Jeju, but if she was willing to go that far, I had no reason to refuse.

“I just meant whoever goes first should pick the most comfortable room.”

“Hmm… then.”

Hyeon Se-rin grabbed my hand and buried her face in the back of my head.

“How about we teleport right now?”

At the same time, in a staff residence on Sejong Island.

“Hand over your teleportation ability.”

“Did you leave it with me? Figure it out and learn it on your own.”

A white-haired woman and a blonde woman sat across from each other at a table, glaring at one another while drinking coffee.

“Let’s help each other out, okay? Your sister is asking nicely.”

“Is this a request? It sounds more like a threat. If I don’t teach you how to create dimensional gates, you’re going to drag me to the summer semester by force, aren’t you?”

“As a student learning for free, shouldn’t you be happy to participate?”

“No way. I’m going to Jeju Island on my own, book a place, and live there for a month.”

The professor and the student stared each other down, with sharply opposing opinions.

“You and the teacher can work together during the day. I’ll be busy catching guys and having fun at night.”

“You do realize that’s a pretty dangerous statement, right?”

“Well, I’m only playing with one guy, so what’s dangerous about it?”

“So, you’re planning to just play around the entire break and not study your abilities?”

“Of course, I should play during break. What else is there to do? I’m still 20, after all.”

Crack.

Baek Seol-hee gritted her teeth and clenched her fist.

“Are you seriously bringing up age? Huh? My physical age is 20 too.”

“What’s so important about that? You can’t even call the teacher ‘oppa’ after all.”

Baek Seol-hee’s hands shook in frustration, but she had no retort.

“I’ll teach you how to make a clone.”

“And what good will it do me to learn that?”

“You can make a sandwich with one in front and one behind.”

Yumir sipped her coffee, avoiding eye contact, and staying silent.

“You can use a clone to attack from below, and your real body can attack from above. Think about it. If you make the clone do a bit of the dirty work, your real body can enjoy things with no stress, right?”

“Hmm….”

“How about it? Sounds good, doesn’t it? You won’t just be doing this, will you? Of course not.”

Baek Seol-hee poked her fingers deep into the middle of the tall cup.

“You also need to do this.”

She started rubbing her hands together in an exaggerated motion.

“Hey, using clones isn’t something bad. You’ll still be doing the real thing with your true self.”

“Hmm….”

“If you use a clone, you can turn a 1-on-1 situation into 1-on-2, or even more. Of course, the real thing needs to be done with your true body, but if your clones are around, the opponent will have to focus on more than just the 1-on-1.”

“Hng….”

Yumir bowed her head, contemplating deeply.

“And the best thing about learning to make clones: what I mentioned last time… I’ll show you properly now.”

Baek Seol-hee pulled out her smartphone and played a video.

“You can even record things like this. What do you think?”

“Sis, you’re really just… an absolute vixen….”

“Shut up. You’ll be the same soon, so stop acting all innocent with me.”

“Mmm….”

Yumir licked her lips as she watched the subtle movements in the video.

“If you teach me teleportation, I promise I won’t take you to the summer camp as a work-study student. You’ll have the whole break to yourself. I’ll also teach you how to make clones.”

“Hmm…. Okay, let’s make a deal. After I learn teleportation, no barging into this room without permission.”

“Of course. We wouldn’t want to ruin the mood by teleporting in right in the middle of something fun.”

“You have to text before teleporting and get permission from the person.”

“Deal.”

At last, the two women reached a dramatic agreement.

“Is this the place? Looks nice.”

Hyeon Se-rin unzipped her white windbreaker, revealing her light clothing underneath.

“…I was wondering what you were wearing under that. A swimsuit?”

“Of course. Before the other staff arrive, how about we check whether every corner of the pension is safe before you head off to Sejong Island?”

Hyeon Se-rin crossed her thumb and forefinger.

“Come on, we’re in Jeju Island together. We’re not just going to sleep and leave, right?”

She began wiggling her fingers seductively, shaping them into a heart.

Today’s proverb:

“The quietest cat is the first to jump on the stove.”
