Chapter 155
The first step in taking over the Academy is to infiltrate a member of the Family into the Academy.
When else would I be able to infiltrate a member of the family into the Academy?
โFirst, I need a member of the Family who is a little off dutyโฆโฆ.โ
Hmmโฆโฆletโs see what comes to mind.
โNo, is there one?โ
I couldnโt think of any.
The organization is currently at war with the Villain Alliance, even if it seems peaceful now.
In fact, after the last terrorist attack, everyoneโs workload was even tighter.
โI canโt help but think about it. Iโll ask them firstโฆโฆ.โ
-Bam!
Just then, I heard the sound of something breaking outside.
-Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry!
-Donโt touch it with your bare hands! What if you hurt yourself?
A familiar voice was heard from beyond the door.
Cautiously, I peek out to see a white-haired girl staring at the broken pottery and Alessia sweeping up the shards with a broom.
โโฆโฆI donโt have your talent.โ
โWell, youโre an intelligence agent, not a staff member, so you shouldnโt feel too bad.โ
โYesโฆโฆ.โ
The girl looks downcast and Alessia is comforting her.
Then she snapped.
โHuh?โ
Her gaze meets mine.
โAh, I found it.โ
โHuh? Master?โ
Was it because I suddenly opened the door? Latte sees me and jumps up and down in surprise.
โLatte, do you have anything to do right now?โ
โWhat? Uh, I, uh, I have to do some cleaning right nowโฆโฆ?โ
Alessia nudges the frantic Latte with her shoulder.
โLatte, are you sure you donโt want to go when the Master wants you?โ
โOh, thatโs not it!โ
โThen what are you doing? Go.โ
โAh. Yes, Master!โ
She throws her hands up in the air, suddenly energized by Alessiaโs words.
โI need help with a family matter, can you help me?โ
โFamilyโฆโฆaffairs?โ
At the mention of family, Latteโs expression loosened and instantly turned serious.
โAnything for the family. What can I do for you?!โ
I wondered if she was really an agent who had infiltrated the Villain Alliance for the sake of the family.
Satisfied with her trustworthy answer, I smiled and placed my hands on her shoulders.
โLatte, I think you should be the owner of the cafe.โ
โYes! You want me toโฆโฆthe cafe?โ
โBe a cafe owner.โ
She told me sheโd do anything for the family, right?
Letโs do it, cafe owner.

-Whooshโ whooshโ
-Drat-drat-drat.
The sound of construction was heard from the morning rush hour.
The children passing by, curious to see a building being erected in the vacant lot of the academy, smile as they look at the construction site.
They seem to be looking forward to it.
Thatโs because a building in the form of a cafe was being constructed, something that hadnโt been seen near the academy before.
โHey, boss, what are you doing there?โ
Jin-woo, who happened to be on his way to school, spotted me standing in front of the construction site and waved me over.
โI was looking at the construction site.โ
โConstruction? What construction? Do you know what theyโre building?โ
โA cafe.โ
โA cafe?โ
He furrowed his brow as if he thought the word cafe was out of place.
โWhat kind of cafe is this in the academy? If theyโre going to build one, they should build a coffee shop. What a bunch of douchebagsโฆโฆ.โ
โItโs my cafe.โ
โStill, I think a cafe where you can relax is better. Well, from the looks of it, I can already tell itโs going to be a hotspot.โ
โโฆโฆ.โ
Jin-woo anticipates it would be a hotspot despite the fact that itโs only a frame of a cafe, and the exterior is just rebar and concrete.
โBut itโs strange to have a cafe inside the academy, and it belongs to boss?โ
He tilted his head again.
โThis time, Hanwol Group got the business rights to the academy. Since Iโm attending the academy, Iโm in charge.โ
โโฆโฆ A cafe in an academy? Boss is really amazing.โ
Then he looked at me again with his usual sparkling eyes.
โI donโt think itโll be ready until this afternoon, so we should get going.โ
โThat fast?โ
โDonโt you remember the club?โ
Once again, it was the โMoveโ family who came to help with the construction.
This happened because the boss of the Move family pushed me to do it as a congratulatory gesture, saying that anything I do should be the bestโฆโฆ.
It was a good result for me because I trusted their skills.
Jin-woo and I walked up to the classroom, and when we opened the door, Se-ah and Young-jae, who were talking, looked at us.
โAh. Youโre here.โ
โGood morning.โ
They greeted us like any other morning.
As soon as I sit down, they gather around me as if theyโve been waiting for me.
โMr. Eugene, did you see that outside?โ
โOutside?โ
โYou know, that new building theyโre building? Itโs a cafรฉ, a cafe in an academy where we donโt have a canteen and we have to buy food from outside or get it from clubs. Isnโt that awesome?โ
I did something, and that was it.
Just as I was about to explain to the kids.
โItโs boss cafe.โ
Jin-woo spoke first, as if he wanted them to be as surprised as he was.
He waited patiently for a reaction.
But
โOh, yeah, thatโs definitely something.โ
โWell, if itโs Eugene, I suppose itโs possible.โ
The kids are more easily convinced than I thought they would be. At this, Jin-woo narrows his eyes and looks at the two of them.
โNo, donโt you want to go to the cafe outside? It belongs to the boss, right?โ
โWell, itโs Mr. Eugene, so I donโt think we should be surprised.โ
โWhen itโs the boss, anything goes.โ
โRight?โ
Seeing the two react as if itโs a given, Jin-woo makes a face that says he doesnโt understand.
โโฆโฆAm I weird?โ
โYouโve always been weird.โ
โYouโre always weird.โ
โCโmonโฆโฆ.โ
Yeah, this is who we are, and Jin-woo is the best.
A little while later, it was time for Morning Meeting, and as usual, Ji-hyun entered the class with the attendance book.
Unlike the tired look weโve been seeing lately, she looks very cheerful.
Even her skin, which had been dull, was plumped up, so it was clear that something had happened.
โMorning, Instructor. You seem to be in a good mood today.โ
And then the now-obvious question time from Jin-woo.
Normally, she would have told him to shut up, but for some reason, she nodded and answered obediently.
โThe kids in my class did pretty well this time, so the academy gave me special money. I was counting on you, werenโt I?โ
Ahโฆโฆfinancial therapy.
It certainly explains why sheโs in such good shape.
Itโs enough to make her feel proud that her students are all in the top tier, and itโs even better when the academy gives her a bonus for the results.
โToday, weโre going to spend the day replaying yesterdayโs duel, the so-called midterm exam wrong answer notes.โ freewebnove l.com
The kids let out a sigh of relief at Ji-hyunโs words.
โYeah~ Itโs the dean instructions~ We have to do it even if we donโt want to~โ
Smiling broadly, as if enjoying the reaction, Ji-hyun popped the CD that came with the attendance book into the player next to the teacherโs table, and a holographic screen appeared in the air.
โAlright, letโs start with the first people to be eliminated from our class.โ
Thatโs how the midterms started.
At first, the kids didnโt want to do it, but once the class started, they started to focus and the atmosphere in the class became calm and serious.
โJin-woo Bevalt, you tried an all-out fight against Mari, as an assassin. Is that how you wanted to ruin the test? If it werenโt for the points you earned early on, you would have been in the bottom half of the class.โ
โโฆโฆYes.โ
One by one, she begins to point out their problems, telling them the details of their moves and responses.
โYoung-jae, rather than buffing your body to evade, youโd be better off casting magic around you to keep them from getting too close. None of them can reliably calculate the amount of magic you have anyway, so you should have bought yourself some time by bluffing.โ
โโฆโฆI apologize.โ
โStill, I think you did well enough. Good work.โ
โYeah.โ
And so it went, one by one, until finally it was my turn.
โEugene Han.โ
โYeah.โ
โโฆโฆYouโre on your own. I donโt really see anything to criticize in this battle. If I had to say one thing, it would be that I felt like you were playing games against Jung-Hoon, but thatโs just because of your bad character, right?โ
โYeah.โ
Itโs scary how well she read my mind at the time.
Still, the fact that she didnโt have anything to point out made me feel validated.
โWell, is that it?โ
Seeing that lunch was approaching, Ji-hyun turned off her screen and looked at us.
โThatโs the end of class for today. Everyone had a hard time taking the midterm. Those who want to do clubs, go to clubs, and those who want to go home, go home.โ
โโโYep!โโโ
The class ended earlier than usual thanks to the buff of being right after the exam.
At the same time, I stood up from my seat and started to walk.
โBoss, do we have club activities again today?โ
At that moment, Jin-woo asks me first as he prepares to go home.
โUh, no. Iโm probably going to the cafe today. I just got a call that the cafe is finished.โ
โEk, already?โ
โReally? Can I go now? Letโs go together!โ
โIโm curious, too. Can I go?โ
Was it the excitement of visiting the new cafe at the academy?
Se-ah asks with her hands clasped together, while Jin-woo and Young-jae look purely curious.
I donโt have a problem with this, as Iโve been trying to get them to see the cafe in the first place so I nod and take the first step.
โLetโs go together. Itโs our first day, but itโll be a simple coffee.โ
Youโve got to start somewhere.
We all walk out of the classroom together, including Se-ah, who canโt hide her excitement.
โHey! Thatโs it, right?โ
The newly built cafe building was a five-minute walk from the main building.
The building had a total of four floors, with the first and second floors for the cafe. The third and fourth floors were set aside for future use.
โWowโฆโฆ looks so pretty!โ
Se-ahโs jaw drops when she sees the exterior.
The terraces are wide open, the wooden doors are painted mint, while the brick walls are modern and clean.
It was reminiscent of a European cafe. ๐ฏ๐ง๐๐๐๐๐๐ฃ๐ค๐ซ๐๐.๐ฌ๐ค๐ข
The details reveal that the boss of the Move family, Reg Move, had a lot to do with the design.
โItโs inspired by the scenery of his hometown,โ I thought.
If it looks classy and beautiful enough to my untrained eye, they must have really put a lot of thought into it.
My favorite of all was the sign with the cafeโs name.
โCielo Notturnoโ
Literally translating to โnight skyโ, it was a great name that symbolized my two identities.
โHuh? Is that the owner?โ
At that moment, he glanced at the woman inside the cafe and blushed.
It seemed that Jin-wooโs golden rule had kicked in again.
โLetโs go in.โ
He pushed open the mint-colored wooden door and stepped inside, the aroma of fragrant wood and roasted beans enveloping his nostrils.
โWelcome!โ
A white-haired woman bows her head in greeting to us.
Her gray hair was tied back neatly on both sides and she was wearing a neatly designed black blouse and skirt.
โTo Cielo Notturno!โ
It was Latte, my henchman and secret weapon against the Academy.
