I Became the Student Council President of Academy City-Chapter 107

The problem was...

"What about you?"

If the martial law security forces were coming this way, it meant they had figured out that the Dohwa Group was hiding Woo-jin.

Under martial law, the security forces were permitted to use all manner of violent measures in the name of maintaining order.

In other words, it was clear what would happen to Se-ah and the members of the Dohwa Group.

"This magical energy is likely from Spartoi. Your group can't win against them."

"I know. But what can we do? We'll have to escape when we see an opening. We prepared an escape route just in case."

Escape when they see an opening?

Against Spartoi?

"......"

Memories from the original work flashed through Woo-jin's mind.

Se-ah, after becoming the ruler of the Black Market and a major villain, met an untimely death under mysterious circumstances.

Given that the Dohwa Group was also wiped out, it was highly likely she had been assassinated by someone.

Who exactly was responsible for Se-ah's and the Dohwa Group's demise was unclear.

It seemed most likely that rival criminal organizations, who were displeased with Se-ah's dominance over the Black Market, had joined forces against her... but something about that didn’t sit right.

Could someone as meticulous as Se-ah really be taken down so easily?

Especially considering the magical power possessed by the members of the Dohwa Group, they were far from being weak.

This suggested that in the original work, Se-ah was likely defeated by a strong opponent who was unpredictable and highly skilled.

Assassination seemed the most probable cause.

'This situation is no exception.'

Woo-jin had no way of knowing what kind of danger Se-ah might face as a result of hiding him.

Especially since the opponent was Spartoi.

If Se-ah died and the Dohwa Group was destroyed as in the original work, it would be a natural outcome.

Even if he didn’t fully trust her, Se-ah was still a junior he liked. Woo-jin didn’t want to see her get hurt.

Moreover, she had provided him with a place to rest, and now she was caught up in this crisis because of it.

Leaving without doing anything would weigh heavily on his conscience.

'Fortunately, my magic has almost fully recovered.'

That’s the 7th tier for you.

He hadn’t expected his magic to recover so quickly, even after being completely drained.

At this rate, he’d soon be at full strength.

He could afford to go head-to-head in a battle.

Woo-jin approached Se-ah and stood in front of her. He then asked,

"Do you regret hiding me?"

Se-ah smiled mischievously and answered with innocent confidence.

"I’ve never regretted anything in my life!"

"Good to hear."

Woo-jin tried to pass by her.

"Sunbae."

He stopped.

"Are you planning to fight?"

"......"

"Don’t do anything strange."

"What do you mean?"

"Don’t say anything weird to the enemies, like you threatened our group to provide you a place to stay by using your relationship with me."

Se-ah looked directly at Woo-jin, her expression firm, almost like a warning.

Woo-jin chuckled softly.

"My junior really isn’t afraid to speak her mind. Let’s meet again. Stay safe."

Woo-jin lightly tapped Se-ah on the shoulder as he walked past her.

As soon as he left the room, he created a rift in the air and jumped through it.

He intended to take out all the enemies before they could clash with the Dohwa Group and Spartoi.

Meanwhile, in the forest, a squad of Spartoi was moving swiftly toward the secret base.

They held their breath and maintained a state of high alert.

Their target was An Woo-jin, a formidable opponent who had reached the 7th tier.

"Is this the place?"

"Yes, it’s close."

New novel 𝓬hapters are published on freёwebnoѵel.com.

They had identified a secret base somewhere in the mountains where Woo-jin might be hiding.

As Woo-jin's magic gradually recovered, the massive magic detection system spread throughout Neo Seoul had managed to pick up his energy.

The Spartoi dispatched for this mission knew they had little chance of defeating a 7th-tier powerhouse like Woo-jin.

There was no point in even thinking about how to counter his devastating lightning and spatial abilities—the gap in strength was simply too vast.

Their mission was to measure Woo-jin's magic accurately and relay that information to the martial law security forces.

However...

"!"

A powerful wave of magic rippled through the trees, enveloping the Spartoi. They all stopped in their tracks, startled.

Something was coming.

Crack!

At that moment, a rift formed among the Spartoi, and Woo-jin calmly stepped out of it.

They found themselves suddenly face-to-face with one of the most powerful figures in the world.

As black-ops specialists, the Spartoi were trained not to show emotion, but the fear on their faces was unmistakable.

"An Woo—!"

Crack!

Rifts formed around each Spartoi, surrounding them like a prison, giving them no time to counterattack.

Boom!

High-voltage lightning magic poured through the rifts, efficiently striking the enemies.

This was Woo-jin’s unique ability, spatial domination.

Magical formula Type 2: Spatial Thunderclap.

Without even a chance to scream, the Spartoi fell to the ground, their bodies charred and smoking as the smell of burnt flesh filled the air.

However, for new humans as strong as Spartoi, this wasn’t a fatal blow. They’d be out of commission for days, at most.

Unless they were like the murderous Spartoi Woo-jin had encountered in prison, he had no desire to take their lives. He had the power to avoid doing so.

"Guh...!"

He had left one of them conscious, attacking with just enough force to keep him awake. Woo-jin approached him, then pulled the magic detector attached to his belt and stood up.

It was a device that functioned like a phone, capable of transmitting information.

"So this is it. The device that measures my magic and sends it to the magic detector system."

"W-what are you going to do...?"

The Spartoi rasped through blood-flecked coughs as Woo-jin infused his magic into the device. It beeped as his magic information was recorded.

Then, Woo-jin pressed the send button.

"What...!?"

The Spartoi’s eyes widened in shock.

"You...! What are you doing...!? By doing that, you’ve transmitted your magic information to the entire martial law security force. Now there’s nowhere left for you to hide...! Are you out of your mind...?"

For the Spartoi, it was a stroke of luck, but the situation made no sense.

No matter where Woo-jin fled or hid, Neo Seoul would be able to find and attack him easily.

"I don’t know."

At that moment, the communication function on the device activated. Woo-jin looked at the screen.

─ ...Ahseong High’s Discipline Committee Head.

A cold voice, like ice, filled the air.

Woo-jin recognized that voice.

─ Was it you who sent this magic information?

Judging by the tone, it seemed the other person, being a 7th-tier as well, had guessed what was happening and reached out.

It seemed they had been skeptical about whether the Spartoi squad would succeed.

A faint smile tugged at the corners of Woo-jin’s lips.

The main reason he needed to recover his magic was now on the other end of this call.

"Suh Kang-jin, right? The top Spartoi. Codename 'White,' correct?"

In this city, he was said to be the strongest after Goliath.

The Principal’s ultimate weapon.

The strongest among the Spartoi.

Suh Kang-jin.

There was a brief silence after Woo-jin spoke, as if Kang-jin was processing the surprise.

─ ...You know me.

It was astonishing that Woo-jin knew this top-secret information.

There was a hint of admiration in Kang-jin’s voice.

"Judging by your call, you must have figured out the situation. Am I right?"

─ …….

"I’ll take that as a yes. I’m not hiding anymore. I don’t need to..."

A clear sense of rage welled up within Woo-jin.

He bared his teeth, growling.

A twisted, menacing expression crossed his face.

The Spartoi felt a shiver run down their spines, as if they could hear a beast growling in the distance.

'Goliath...?'

It was reminiscent of the overwhelming pressure that always accompanied Goliath’s presence.

And then, Woo-jin declared.

"I’m going to bring down the Principal."

It was a declaration of war.

The Spartoi’s eyes widened in shock.

"I’ll destroy anything that gets in my way, even if it’s this entire academy city. Stop me if you can."

Pure anger and hostility.

A sigh, filled with disdain, came from Kang-jin.

─ Then you’ll learn the hard way what arrogance brings. And... don’t expect any courtesy from me. Whatever fate befalls you, consider it well deserved. The price for defying the order of Neo Seoul will not be light.

His words made it clear that he intended to make Woo-jin's death as painful as possible.

Woo-jin recalled the mind map he had seen at Baek-seo’s house. To her, Kang-jin was akin to a landmine, a powerful adversary.

He also remembered what the doctor had said during Baek-seo's treatment after the Moon Chae-yeon suppression operation. The doctor had noted several frostbite scars.

For Baek-seo, Kang-jin was not just a landmine; he was one of the few Spartoi who could easily overpower her.

The only person who could have caused such severe frostbite on Baek-seo was Suh Kang-jin.

Moreover, he was the Principal's most loyal enforcer, someone who had faithfully carried out the Principal’s dirty work.

In a way, it was convenient.

Woo-jin felt an intense desire to smash his fist into Kang-jin's face.

"You’re no different," Woo-jin replied.

─ What?

"Whatever happens to you, consider it well deserved."

Before Kang-jin could respond, Woo-jin crushed the magic detector in his hand.

Crack!

The device shattered, its fragments scattering to the ground. The sight was reflected in the widened eyes of the Spartoi.

Thud!

Woo-jin's foot came crashing down on the head of the Spartoi, delivering a heavy blow that knocked him out cold, his face crumpling under the force.

With a cold expression, Woo-jin walked away.

By now, twilight had begun to settle over the land.
