Eunho said this about Sanryeong’s identity before;

— It’s unlikely that he is a being naturally spawned from Cheonik Mountain. I think you are someone who died on the Cheonik Mountain a long time ago but stayed on this land instead of crossing to the bridle of reincarnation.

Although Sanryeong doesn’t originate from Mt. Cheonik, it's thanks to the power of the mountain that he can maintain his substance.

Sanryeong exists through the spirit of the mountain, so if he’s separated from it for a long time, his strength will weaken.

That’s why he usually stays in the mansion or trains with Baekho-gun and Olmu, but sometimes he just floats on Mt. Cheonik.

Today, Sanryeong seems to have been caught while wandering around the mountain.

‘The strong homeroom teacher is serious. If we don’t intervene, Sanryeong will be caught for good.’

I checked Im Yeonhwa’s social media accounts and saw several selfies with numerous hashtags.

According to her, she’s being generous to her cute students.

However, it’s clear that Sanryeong wouldn’t be spared.

…If the homeroom teacher doesn’t let him go, that means she successfully caught a mountain spirit.

“Sanryeong’s escape began in Cheondansu. He planned to run to the bamboo forest or the mansion, but Im Yeonhwa stopped him.”

Hwang Jiho explained what he heard on our way from the mansion to the mountain.

Surprisingly, Sanryeong didn’t seem to be caught yet.

But the more I listened to the story, the more I felt a sense of incompatibility.

‘She’s not going easy on him, but…’

As if I wasn’t the only one who felt that, Jeokho expressed the same sentiment.

“She blocked his retreat but didn’t actively capture him. She must be teaching her students how to hunt.”

As Jeokho said, Im Yeonhwa was helping the Class 3-0 seniors catch Sanryeong themselves.

So, although Sanryeong has not yet been captured, she made sure he wouldn’t be able to escape to the mansion or the bamboo forest.

If it hadn’t been for Im Yeonhwa, Sanryeong would’ve been successful in teasing and running from Woo Kihwan as usual.

The homeroom teacher’s support skills are excellent, but Class 3-0, who understood Im Yeonhwa’s intention and used it in practice immediately, was also amazing.

‘I only ever saw Im Yeonhwa and Class 3-0 competing. It’s scary when they join forces.’

I didn’t know that the seniors and their homeroom teacher would be this good.

Those teacher-students must be very close.

“Sanryeong might seem insignificant, but he’s the Tiger Clan’s mountain spirit for now. As head of the clan, we cannot let him be chased by humans.”

Despite that, he wasn’t treated well among the tigers.

I only remember Sanryeong as being punished by the unidentified substances made by Eunho’s descendants.

He gets scolded during training with Baekho-gun and Olmu, and also by Hwang Jiho for doing unknown things.

Still, considering that the tigers are stepping up like this, it seems that they haven’t completely abandoned him.

“That doesn’t mean we can attack teachers and students of our territory’s school, so it’s tricky.”

“That’s right. It will be troublesome if we leave traces in the process of rescuing Sanryeong. I brought you with me so that things could be done cleanly.”

The mythical Hwang Jiho and Baekho-gun and the legendary Jeokho were here.

We were outnumbered by Class 3-0, but our side is far superior.

But this side has a lot of handicaps.

‘Hwang Jiho’s not hiding his identity these days, but it’s a little too much to reveal it to Class 3-0 whom he didn’t have much interaction.’

Hwang Jiho knows this too, so he brought all the tigers to the rescue.

When the mountain became visible in close proximity, Hwang Jiho spoke.

“Jo Euishin, Baekho, and I will attract attention. I’ll lure Im Yeonhwa so Jo Euishin and Baekho can take care of the students.”

“Got it.”

Baekho-gun is playing a leading role.

I expected it, but I’m worried.

Wouldn’t the seniors try to find out who Baekho was?

Noticing my worries, Hwang Jiho spoke.

“You don’t have to worry. Baekho has an identity related to Eungwang High.”

I’m aware of that.

There’s a person named “Baekho-gun” in PMH too.

He’s a person tied to Eungwang District.

As incidents increased in Eungwang High, his appearance at the school gradually increased.

As a result, other than the main characters, the number of people who encountered Baekho-gun increased, and there have been cases where he had to give a name.

‘He was a faculty member in PMH. Is it the same in this world?’

Baekho-gun had a fake identity and even a fake family register in PMH.

He was a faculty member, but he didn’t have a high enough position to stop Choi Pyeondeuk, causing a lot of complaints about the game.

‘If Hwang Jiho wasn’t going to work, he should’ve given Baekho-gun a high position.’

I had complaints too, but I actually understand.

No matter what Hwang Jiho thought, Baekho-gun was a part of his territory, so it’s a bit odd to give him a position equivalent to Eungwang High’s board of directors.

Furthermore, the greater his authority, the bigger the obligation he has to assume.

He didn’t want to burden his friend.

While my thoughts were full of Baekho-gun and PMH, Hwang Jiho laughed and spoke.

“Hahahaha! Are you curious about Baekho’s fake identity? I always say this, Jo Euishin, but if you’re really curious, I’ll tell you.”

“Never mind.”

“I’ll tell you his fake name at least. It’s Baek Hogun.”

I know.

His name is the same in PMH, so he must be a faculty member in this world too.

Hwang Jiho seemed itching to say something more.

The sight of it made me somewhat uneasy.

Is there something different from the PMH world?

Like how Hwang Jiho became a part of Class Zero in the first year instead of the second?

“Sanryeong is caught. Let’s hurry up.”

Then, Baekho-gun spoke.

I felt sorry when I heard him.

I was almost caught by Hwang JIho and wasted precious time.

Baekho-gun was the last playable character to lose his sincerity despite having a friend like Hwang Jiho.

“If the three of you are in charge of distracting them, then I assume that I’m supposed to help Sanryeong escape.”

“Yes. Jeokho, you guard Sanryeong and go to the mansion.”

The plan was set, but there was a lot on my mind.

‘No matter how strong the homeroom teacher is, I don’t think Hwang Jiho will lose. Baekho-gun and I will deal with Class 3-0… That means Sanryeong is sure to be safe.’

There will be little traces left just as Hwang Jiho planned.

Still, this isn’t a permanent solution.

‘Why does Woo Kihwan want Sanryeong? How is he calling him the energy of the universe?’

I know why Woo Kihwan calls him the energy of the universe.

Sanryeong can communicate with the transcendent universe through the Cheondansu.The source of this ᴄontent is Fire(.)net

It’s clear that Woo Kihwan witnessed it while wandering around the mountain.

The question is “How?”

“I need to ask you something.”

“Go ahead.”

“Remember the day I asked about the identity of Cheongho and Shinin in front of the Cheondansu?”

The tigers had a slight expression at my question, their eyes stinging.

“You mean when you used that terrible skill and fainted for a few days after throwing up blood? Of course, I remember.”

“I remember too.”

“How can we forget? As soon as you woke up, you said we could leave you in your dorm room.”

“…”

Following Hwang Jiho’s addition of unnecessary details, Baekho-gun also nodded silently.

Anyway, since everyone remembers, the story will be fast.

“Did you feel the energy of the universe when I used that skill?”

“What?”

“…Are you influenced by Class 3-0 too, Jo Euisin?”

Hwang Jiho and Jeokho couldn’t believe it.

I also think that the question is strange, but I had to confirm.

“I didn’t.”

The first to answer was Baekho-gun.

He continued slowly.

“Power came down from the sky, but just because we saw the process, we can’t infer that it was the universe.”

When Baekho-gun answered seriously, Jeokho and Hwang Jiho looked puzzled.

“…Baekho is right. I felt a huge force, but I didn’t think it was the universe.”

“Human. Royal lineage. Superior being. It was clear that it didn’t fall into those three categories.”

Jeokho and Hwang Jiho gave answers similar to the point that Baekho-gun was making.

My questions deepened as I listened to the tigers.

‘Even the tigers didn’t immediately think that it was the universe, but why is Woo Kihwan…?’

Until Woo Kihwan ran into Sanryeong, Class 3-0 kept talking about the energy of the universe.

That’s why Moon Saeron offered to cover it too.

It’s not like Sanryeong talked about the universe, but Woo Kihwan accurately pinpointed the keyword.

I thought it wouldn’t be possible to simply take Sanryeong away, so I made a suggestion.

“There’s no end if we let this keep going no. We have to make Class 3-0 give up completely.”

Hwang Jiho answered my words calmly even though he found it strange that the topic changed suddenly.

“They’ll graduate soon, so why don’t we just let them be for the time being?”

Most people from Eungwang High hope so, but it’s probably impossible.

Those people already have an excuse.

Graduating wouldn’t stop Class 3-0.

“Alumni came during the festival to try and blow up the old building. Remember?”

“…I see.”

Even after they graduated, the Class Zero alumni went back to the school to achieve their goals.

No matter how busy Hwang Jiho was, he wouldn’t have forgotten the attempted bombing that coincided with Joo Soori’s disappearance at the library.

I spoke to Hwang Jiho who looked like he was getting a headache.

“So I’d like to suggest two things.”

“Go ahead.”

I said my piece and the tigers nodded without a word.

“I think that’s better than just helping him get away.”

“Got it, Jo Euishin. Let’s do what you said.”

When we finished talking, we were already in the middle of Mt. Cheonik.

The battlefield seemed to be getting closer as I sensed energy waves from Class 3-0.
