I Became the Academy’s Kibitz Villain

Chapter 221: S-Class Scanner (6)



Chapter 221: S-Class Scanner (6)

Throughout last night, Baek Seol-hee and I studied her doppelgnger ability extensively.

It was a lengthy process.

The doppelgnger was repeatedly created and then destroyed.

I accidentally shattered the doppelgnger with a bat.

Fortunately, no injuries occurred when the doppelgnger broke, allowing us to explore its abilities in various ways.

For now, only one can be made at a time. Check. The doppelgnger can be broken to recover mana. Check. If the doppelgnger is close, sensations can be synchronized. Check. And

I summarized Baek Seol-hees doppelgnger ability to make it more accessible for her.

Its possible to move to the doppelgngers location. This involves transforming the main body into frost mist for movementbut teleporting across spaces is not possible.

Someday, itll be possible.

Baek Seol-hee, perhaps envious of Yumirs space teleportation, aspired to move her main body to the doppelgngers location regardless of the distance.

For now, her wish was simply to be able to cross over to my house where the doppelgnger was at any moment.

I must. Definitely. I want to move freely. I cant keep relying on Yumir forever.

Yumir doesnt complain every time she teleports, does she?

She doesnt. If she did, I wouldve said something. But because she doesnt, I feel even more apologetic. Especially last time, when you and I were tsk.

I felt really sorry for spoiling the moment. Its okay. You can just come to me like this from now on.

Although Baek Seol-hees method might be more complex and challenging than Yumirs, the fact that she cpi;d now leave the Taeguk Watch at her office and come to my room was a significant achievement.

Additionally, the doppelgnger can use abilities, albeit in a very weakened form.

It was not limited to making gestures; it could fully utilize abilities.

However, the abilities it could use are clearly limited.

The abilities the doppelgnger can use depend on the total amount of magic power given to it. If you put in the power of an E-rank, it has the strength of an E-rank; if C-rank, then C-rank strength.

If I put all my magic power into creating a doppelgnger, I wouldnt be able to move and would have to control the doppelgnger only while I recover. Ah, this part is a bit different. Modify this. Its not quite like that

Baek Seol-hee, lying on the bed, watched me organize her doppelgnger ability on my laptop and helped with the organization.

The synchronization of sensations between the doppelgnger and the main body varies with distance. Its like a walkie-talkie. Even the distance between the front door and the veranda is enough to lose the connection.

We just need to train.

Right. Well train so that the doppelgnger can appear in front of people. When its time for prenatal education, just lying in bed or taking a light walk will be enough.

Someday, even just sitting still, doppelgnger Baek Seol-hee should be able to handle everything on her own.

But that would require consuming a significant amount of magic power each time a doppelgnger was created. If there were a way to quickly replenish mana

Ah.

A good idea came to mind.

Seol-hee, how much cash do you have?

Should I give it all?

No, no. What are you talking about? When you say it like that, it sounds like Im some scumbag whos after your money.

I flicked Baek Seol-hees forehead lightly with my finger.

I meant, do you have enough to buy a building on Ulleungdo, about a thousand pyeong?

How much would that be?

To buy about a thousand pyeongjust a simple estimate would be about a hundred billion for the land alone?

Amazing, Ulleungdo.

A hundred million per pyeong.

Only possible because of the strong patriotic energy imbued in the land.

Considering the pensions and hotels on top, wed need at least two hundred billion.

I frequently visit a certain pension, you know.

Yeah.

The hot spring there is actually a mana recovery spot.

?

Thats why I go there often.

Just by entering the water, magic power is restored?

Yeah.

Then!

Baek Seol-hee tried to get up right away.

Lets go to Ulleungdo. Ill take you.

Calm down.

If we go into the sea, nobody will notice. Or

Just calm down.

I hugged Baek Seol-hee tightly in my arms and gently stroked her head.

We can go to Ulleungdo anytime. Even now, if we wanted. But do you think youd enjoy it now?

.

Lets wait until youve recovered some strength. Okay?

Yeah.

Her face buried in my chest, she blinked for a moment, then blushed and clung to me.

We could buy that pension in Ulleungdo, couldnt we?

No, not that one. Well buy a hotel where nobody can enter, and pretend to live there while actually staying at the pension. With me.

The ultimate escapade. The paparazzi will roam around the hotel I bought, and if we send the doppelgnger there, everyone will think Baek Seol-hee is there. But why dont I just buy that pension?

Thats not possible.

That place was an asset of the society.

Anyway, lets leave at least an E-rank doppelgnger elsewhere, and have the doppelgnger act similarly to how you usually do. Meanwhile, you can soak in the hot springs of Ulleungdo or be patriotic without any problem. As long as no one attacks you or anything, there shouldnt be a big problem.

Wont people think its weird to have a doppelgnger? Wondering why it only feels like E-rank magic power.

Well think about that when the time comes. Or we could hire someone else to act as a bodyguard around you.

It would be nice if an agent of the society could be attached, but I was not sure Baek Seol-hee would like having an agent of the society by her side.

Seol-hee, can you fight with the doppelgnger?

The doppelgnger could mimic Snow Whites face, but engaging in serious combat like we did in Jindo would be out of the question. Its magic power is its very lifeforce.

Magic power as lifeforce

Anyone come to mind?

Just thinking, if thats the case, using mana seems quite reluctant.

It was a limitation someone had conceived.

Utilizing magic power to protect people is noble, but if using mana also shortens ones lifespan, even S-class heroes might think twice before taking action.

That makes sense. Plus, if youre an S-class hero, the government would have a say in your actions. Dont do anything rash, only step in when the nation faces peril.

Baek Seol-hee looked up at me, her expression laden with significance.

If I was right, she might have caught wind of something about that man, be it from the chairman or the president.

Being the ultimate weapon is a heavy burden. Revealing your condition would only add to the chaos of the world.

Was being ranked number one the same in every context?

Because they were heroes, brimming with justice, battling villains with bodies on the brink of death, refusing to let the symbol of peace falter.

The difference here was that in this world, there were many ready to step up and become a new symbol of peace.

Seol-hee, if the world learns of your pregnancy, youll be stepping down for at least a year, making the next S-class temporarily Koreas representative.

Then, will Toosin be Koreas representative?

Do you trust Toosin to take care of this country?

.

Baek Seol-hee sealed her lips.

Toosin might be a paragon of justice, handsome, and undeniably skilled, but still, he seems to lack the qualities needed to fill the shoes of Gwang Ik Gong or Snow White, doesnt he?

.

Someone once said, if you were to rank Koreas S-classes, it would look something like this.

S+ class included Gwang Ik Gong, Snow White.

S class include Toosin, Baridegi, Cheok Jun-kyeong, Naje.

S- class included Armored Taejo.

Want to hear something interesting? Do you know what criteria people use to classify someone as S+ class?

Performance?

Its whether one can subdue all the S-class heroes of a neighboring country. For instance, if Snow White alone can suppress all five S-class heroes of Japan.

It sounds difficult, but not entirely impossible.

Right. Thats the prestige of being S+ class.

Though all classified as S-class by the Hero Association, theres naturally a distinction within the S-class itself.

What if someone more reliable than Toosin becomes S+ class and represents Korea as a power user?

Then, Id want to announce it openly.

Baek Seol-hee tapped my cheek with her finger.

Even if we dont say who the father is, Ill announce that Baek Seol-hee has finally gotten pregnant as everyone in the nation wanted. If the world is anxious about the absence of an S+ class, wouldnt everyone feel relieved if there were an S+ class to protect the country during my maternity leave?

Who are you thinking of?

How about the person responsible for making Baek Seol-hee take maternity leave take responsibility?

Thats not possible.

Just as Baek Seol-hee rejected my recruitment offer, I couldnt accept that either.

Better to raise a few S+ classes and place them instead.

Really?

Yeah. Im already eyeing someone.

A woman?

Why do you think its a woman?

Because you wouldnt teach a man by your side.

Do you see people as some kind of accessory?

It was easier to teach women, but that didnt mean I absolutely despise teaching men.

Or should I ask Solar Platina for help? While Im pregnant and giving birth, can you protect this country?

And when Solar Platina gets pregnant, then youll step forward?

Why not take turns each year?

Look at you. No intention of stopping at one?

Planning to gather kids for a soccer team?

.

I covered Baek Seol-hees mouth with my hand.

If thats the plan, youre essentially retiring. Just give birth and thats it? The mom needs to be there with them. If both mom and dad are out on missions, who will be by their side?

.

Dont look at me like that. Im not someone who will give up my path just because I have a child. On the contrary, Ill move even more actively. If before it was for my woman, then it will be for my children.

I was already moving with that mindset, but now, with even more responsibility, Id have to give my all.

So, the answer is simple. To ensure you can raise our child with peace of mind

My conclusion was clear.

To raise someone capable of dedicating themselves to this country in your place as an S+ class. As quickly as possible.

After all, work was something that the successor did.

Its not about waiting for a new S-class to come in; its about making one.
