Regressor’s Life After Retirement

—————————————

[ (Side Story) You saw me! ]

“Lulu~”

Daein hummed and looked at Lily who was coming out of the room. The girl came out with a large teddy bear bag on her back and a yellow suitcase in one hand.

The outfit included my favorite pink dress and a headband with a large ribbon. She was very decorated.

“Have you packed all your luggage?”

“huh!”

Despite his confident answer, the great man had an untrustworthy expression on his face.

“You still have time, so check again to see if anything is missing. It’s not a day or two, it’s a week. “Don’t call me later and whine about something.”

Lily looked at the great man with a gloomy expression.

“I checked it twice. “Do you think I’m so young?”

“…Did you think it wasn’t the case until now?”

“Stop nagging. “I’m all grown up now.”

“what?”

“Can you move aside for a moment?”

Lily passed by Daein’s side with his mouth open, walking proudly like a celebrity who had just arrived at the airport and got out of a van. Twisting your hair behind your ear with your fingers.

Inside the restaurant, Soshinhan, who had arrived early, was sitting at an empty table waiting for the two people.

But his condition was not very good.

Sweet, sweet….

“Mr. Shinhan. “Why are you dropping your legs like that?”

“I’m so shaken… I couldn’t sleep at all last night.”

The great man chuckled.

“What should I do if it’s already like this? “I barely took the entrance exam.”

“It’s just an entrance exam!”

Jump up!

Soshinhan got up from his seat and approached Daein.

“The best superhuman training institution in a dimensional hub created by the best heroes in the universe! This is an academy established to inherit the will for universal peace left behind by the great hero Dae-in Lee! “Just the number of applicants selected from all over the world…”

So Shin-han spoke impassionedly, with the intention of grabbing the great hero by the collar.

Daein scratched the back of his head awkwardly.

“I feel a bit embarrassed when you praise me that much.”

“…Why boss?”

“Because we have the same name.”

“Ah…”

Even though their conversation was sometimes out of focus, they were still able to get along well.

“Anyway, relax. “Because in that state, I can’t even show my full abilities.”

“…yes. Thank you so much for giving me this opportunity, boss!”

Daein looked at Sosinhan who bowed his head and smiled happily.

However, the moment I saw Lily exchanging messages with someone at an incredible speed next to me, I couldn’t help but furrow my brows.

“Kid, you need to relax. “You’re not just going to have fun, are you?”

But Lily already looked like she was ready to have fun. The girl looked up from her smartphone, her eyes shining brightly.

“I’m so excited to meet my friends after a long time!”

WH Academy, a superhuman training institute established this year.

WHA for short.

Today is the day the two people go there to take the entrance exam.

“If you’re ready, let’s go. “I’ll walk you to the gate.”

“huh!”

“thank you.”

Driving the car to the gate.

The great man glanced at Lily who was sitting in the back seat.

The girl pressed her face against the window with excitement and looked outside while periodically exchanging messages with someone.

‘Originally, I wanted to send her to a regular school, but…’

Daein wanted to raise Lily like a normal child, but Lily found it difficult to adapt to a regular school.

Moreover, other students also found it burdensome to accept Lily’s presence.

‘I deleted all records of the little boy and cast a spell to impair his awareness… but that alone was not enough to solve the problem.’

Around Lily, there were only people with special abilities, including great people, and by hanging out with them, the girl experienced countless experiences that ordinary people would never have in their lifetime.

For such a child, having to live an ordinary life at an ordinary school was incredibly stressful.

‘…Forcing someone to live a normal life is also funny.’

In the end, Daein decided to have Lily attend WHA.

I’m a little worried here and there… but

there are a lot of familiar faces there, so it’ll work out somehow.

“They’re all here.”

Before we knew it, the three had arrived in front of the gate.

Because there were so many applicants, no one except those involved could enter the entrance examination room.

Of course, Daein could follow suit legally or illegally if he wanted to, but Daein was not planning on doing that.

‘Sometimes it is necessary to trust the child so that he can do it on his own.’

It’s definitely not for any other reason. Because it’s annoying or something.

Daein saw the two people off in front of the gate.

He said as he straightened Lily’s clothes.

“kid. “You can do it on your own for a week, right?”

One week ahead.

The two will enter WHA, take all the entrance exams, and then return.

“Boss, don’t worry Lily! “I will take good care of you so you don’t get hurt!”

No, I’m worried that other people besides him will get hurt….

Daein secretly sent a message to Lily because of his conviction.

[Please don’t get into trouble.]

[Don’t do it!]

[Even if you fail the test, don’t get upset with the CEO or the boss.]

[That’s right!]

[I told you not to give me any preferential treatment. So, humbly accept the result and go home….]

“Mr. Ui! “Don’t talk like you’re going to fall already!”

The great man waved his arm and pushed away Lily’s forehead, who was attacking her, with his finger.

There was concern in his voice.

“Anyway, have a nice trip. Get along well with the friends you meet there, don’t steal other people’s food, and don’t break or hit them when you’re angry. Understand?”

Lily’s mood seemed to be quite serious, so Lily lowered her arms and nodded quietly.

“…huh. okay.”

“president. “Then I’ll be back.”

-Jeeeeee!

Daein watched quietly until the two disappeared beyond the gate. He sighed softly, probably worried.

“Well… I don’t think anything will happen. “There’s a representative there, a famous person, and a lot of familiar faces.”

After struggling to shake off his worries, Daein turned around without any regrets.

And at that moment

…

A happy smile is drawn on your lips without you even realizing it. The changes I had until now seemed like lies.

“Hehe. “You mean I’ll have free time without the little one for the next week?”

Lily wasn’t the only one looking forward to this day.

***

Candidates who arrived at WHA after crossing the gate from various levels were all gathered in one place.

Kugugugugung…!

A huge island floating in the sky.

A spacious rotunda located in the center of the island.

Candidates who came with swollen hearts were busy looking around the space where Dimensional Hub’s technology was concentrated.

“This is WHA…!”

“The density of magical power is very high.”

“How does that work?”

Candidates look around the inside of WHA with a curious expression.

Candidates are already looking at other candidates with wary eyes.

Candidates looking around with confident or nervous expressions.

Most of them were people who were considered geniuses in the world they lived in.

“Finally!”

And there arrived a man who was as excited as a child and a little girl who looked much calmer than the adult next to him.

“This is a renovated place for the Demon King’s castle that was used during the Demon World War! Can you believe it, Lily? We are now standing on the scene of that history! Ah, the landlord is in command of this Demon King Castle…!”

“That was something else.”

“what?”

“Oh, it’s nothing.”

Lily covered her mouth with her palm.

‘Because the uncle said I had to watch my mouth here.’

I glanced at Sosinhan’s attention, but he was busy just half-listening to Lily’s words and looking around.

“Oh oh! Here is a life-size statue of the death squad!”

“omg! “It’s a photo of the landlord when he was alive!”

“No way, that is the fragment of Longinus…! “Oh no.”

This was like no other hillbilly who had just arrived in Seoul.

Other test takers laughed at or frowned at the sight of such a confident person.

It was right then.

[Nice to meet you. Everyone.]

A huge hologram of a person appeared on the central stage in the center of the rotunda.

Soshinhan screamed like he was going crazy.

“Superman Baek Chang-soo!”

The other test takers who had been glaring at him just moments ago also couldn’t say anything.

This is because the person who appeared on stage was such a great hero that even they looked at him with wide eyes.

[It may be insufficient, but I am Baek Chang-soo, who will serve as the first president of WHA. We sincerely welcome all of you who have taken the WHA entrance exam.] The

head of the pan-universal corporation WH Group and a hero who played a major role alongside Landlord in the final battle.

Currently, he is undisputedly the strongest superman on Earth.

Although it was only a hologram, Baek Chang-soo exuded overwhelming charisma and immediately attracted everyone’s attention.

[One week from today, you will be taking the entrance exam here.]

The voice was calm but powerful.

[When the test starts, the instructors here will help you.]

-Jeeeeee! Jiiiing!

-Jeeeeee! Jiiiing!

-Jeeeeee! Jiiiing!

Other holograms began to be created to the left and right of Baek Chang-soo.

Heroes who were part of the final death squad.

As each person appeared, gasps and applause erupted from all directions.

“Murim Lord Cheongun!”

“Old knight Sir Leonard!”

“Blind saint….”

“Head of the Sword Emperor Gate! After the short sword, all the way to Namgunghyeon!”

Soshinhan, who showed a tremendous reaction every time the heroes appeared, reached his peak the moment he saw the last character to appear.

“omg! Even Wang Guho, humanity’s last shield! “The best colleague that the landlord could have trusted with his back…!”

It seemed that Wang Guho had suddenly become that kind of person.

Soshinhan muttered with his eyes half open.

“I don’t mind dying now… I’m a real fan… They’re all your colleagues… If I pass here, will I be able to get your autograph?”

The moment Wang Guho appeared, Lily also shouted happily.

“uh? “That’s awesome!”

Soshinhan, who was surprised, covered Lily’s mouth so that no one would hear.

“Shh! It’s rude to say that! “Wang Guho is a great hero respected throughout the universe!”

“Eup… Don’t be shy! (But it’s Hogde!)”

I don’t know if it was an illusion, but at that moment, it seemed as if Wang Guho’s hologram glanced back in this direction.

With a very embarrassed face.

Baek Chang-soo said with a grin in the center of countless heroes.

[Then we will start the entrance exam right away. I wish everyone good luck.]

“What? already?”

“You don’t even explain the test content?”

As the panicked candidates muttered, the holograms of the president and professors disappeared one by one, and a hard mechanical sound echoed throughout the circular hall.

[Applicants, please move to your assigned line.]

-Keeeeeeee!

At the same time, certain sections around the central stage of the rotunda began to be divided into colors.

The innermost line is a reddish red line, followed by orange, yellow, green, blue, navy and purple.

Rainbow lines of seven colors spread out in a circle.

The red line area is the smallest and the section becomes wider as you go further back.

“What is it?”

“What happened all of a sudden…”

[Applicants are asked to check the color of the test sheet they received and then move to the line of the same color.]

Although the test takers were confused, they moved as instructed by the speaker.

Candidates who had previously received a yellow test ticket were drawn along the yellow line. Candidates who had received a green test ticket in advance were lined up with a green line. The blue lines were blue, navy and purple….

Candidates who had been scattered all over the place naturally began to get organized as they found their seats.

“We too… huh? “Why is there no color in ours?”

Soshinhan looked at the test score with a puzzled expression.

There was no color on the outside of his and Lily’s test sheets.

It’s just white paper.

As I was contemplating whether to find someone in charge and ask them, Lily pointed in a direction with her finger.

“I think we’re over there?”

There was a colorless area at the far end of the rotunda.

[If there is no color on the test sheet, please move to the white line.]

Soshinhan headed to the white line with Lily with a puzzled expression.

‘No matter how I look at it, this seems like the worst place…’

It was true.

Those in the white line were those who qualified for the test by receiving a letter of recommendation or were selected based on their potential rather than their immediate abilities.

Or it is impossible to identify capabilities.

Other test takers also roughly grasped the situation.

“This line….”

“Is it divided according to the level of the test taker?”

“joy. What is the level? “It must have been divided according to the public’s evaluation.”

“…WHA. “It’s worse than I imagined.”

“I like it. “Because I don’t want to learn with those who are inferior.”

[you’re right. The line you are currently standing in was arranged based on our self-evaluation of you.] A

few test takers nodded with satisfaction, but most of them frowned as if they were dissatisfied with their positions.

[Depending on your efforts, where you stand may change in a week. Please aim higher!]

Naturally, everyone’s eyes turned to the red line at the front.

The seat closest to the central stage where the heroes were standing just moments ago.

There were only two boys standing there facing each other.

Gossip and gossip.

“But who are they? “Why are you two like that?”

“Where are you from? Don’t you know those two?”

Someone who liked to explain pointed to the boy standing on the left of the two.

“The kid on the left is Jang Young-shin.”

A boy wearing a white coat who resembles a researcher.

Round horn-rimmed glasses and pale skin. A handsome boy who looks like an idol with intelligent eyes.

“I’m the deputy director of WH Group’s Weapons Development Research Institute.”

“Am I that young? He looks like he’s only fifteen at most…”

“That kid is a member of the final death squad. “He is the one who created the giant soldier that the landlord rode on.”

“Oh my… then who is Anne on the other side?”

The boy standing across from Jang Young-shin gave off an atmosphere completely opposite to Jang Young-shin.

Wearing a black leather jacket and being tall enough to resemble an adult. The distinct facial features gave off a slightly ferocious look.

“That kid is Kurodama Shin. The world’s only disaster-level multi-talented person. “That kid is also a member of the final death squad.”

“!!”

It was a statement that broke the will of most competitors.

Youngshin Jang and Shin Kurodama.

Two names that are always mentioned when discussing the next generation of humanity’s strongest superhumans.

Someone muttered in a hollow voice.

“Why are kids like that taking the entrance exam with us?”

“This is something I heard too, but… I think it has a different purpose.”

“For any other purpose?”

The person who spoke earlier lowered his voice and said.

“They say they are trying to build their own power now in preparation for the future…”

“…I’m already getting goosebumps.”

“How great can one’s ambition be…”

“Monsters.”

The two boys were glaring at each other, unaware that their goals were being ridiculously exaggerated.

“A long time.”

“…….”

The atmosphere between the two was cold.

However, the real reason was not that they were rivals competing to become the next strongest human race, as people thought.

In another sense, they are rivals.

“…god. “I guess your goal is the same as mine anyway.”

“okay. “It is definitely time to settle the matter.”

The two boys growled like wild beasts and turned their heads in the same direction at the same time.

‘older brothers!’

There, Lily was waving eagerly at the two people with an innocent look on her face.

Although I couldn’t say anything openly because of my superior’s instructions.

The two boys’ expressions softened at the same time and then they glared at each other again.

“…you just saw me.”

“no. “Did you see me?”

“…it’s me.”

“It’s me.”

Puzzle!

The two boys’ eyes collided and sparks flew.
