EX rank supporting role’s replay in a prestigious school

At Eungwang High’s Silver Hall.

Just after it was confirmed that the service company affiliated with Namgung Group were the ones who attacked the Eungwang High students.

The Yellow Tiger has assumed the appearance of Chairman Lee.

Chairman Lee got up from his seat.

He stepped on the white marble floor and stood right at the center of his office.

He began to use some energy wave.

At that moment…

Knock, knock.

“I’m coming in, Chairman Lee.”

Unlike usual, the secretary didn’t wait for the Chairman’s permission before entering his office.

The door embossed with a dark golden tiger was opened.

A weapon item card was hidden in the secretary’s hand.

The secretary was hiding the tension with a mask-like facial expression.

“There are no intruders. I had just returned home and decided to stop by here.”

The secretary who saw the sudden flow of energy wave from the Chairman soon relaxed.

Seeing that the person inside the office is able to use energy wave, the secretary became sure that it is indeed Chairman Lee.

With the weapon item card in his arms, the secretary took a deep bow toward Chairman Lee.

“I apologize. I think there was some miscommunication.”

“It’s a sudden decision for me to go back to Korea. You need not apologize.”

The Yellow Tiger finished talking to the secretary and continued what he was doing before he was interrupted.

His hair and eyes turned golden as a torrent of power swirled around him.

‘He just transferred his true self to here…! Where could the ‘Hwang Jiho’ who went abroad be right now?’

The secretary realized what was happening.

On the other hand, the Yellow Tiger completely assumed a different identity.

He began to speak in a thick and low voice.

“This body is the Guardian of the Divine. Now I can see all the secrets of Eungwang District.”

As he was finishing his sentence, a circle of golden pressure began to surround the Yellow Tiger.

Fwaaa!

The golden particles spread all over the floor to the point that only the gold color could be seen.

The Guardian of the Divine, Yellow Tiger.

Now that his true self is in Eungwang District, it was possible to watch over the whole district through his powers.

The secretary admired the sight of the Yellow Tiger opening up his powers as the Guardian after a long time.

“…Hmm.”

The Yellow Tiger narrowed his eyebrows and glanced at the secretary.

The quick-witted secretary turned on a hologram and prepared to take note of instructions.

“Please go ahead.”

The Yellow Tiger gave several instructions to his secretary.

Moments after the secretary left…

One of his alter egos sat down again and began to work.

* * *

Before the countdown ended…

The several police officers exchanged glances.

The police officers at Gwangil Police Station had been eating the money from people’s taxes for decades now.

They were corrupt, but they weren’t completely stupid.

Rather, the veterans, who survived by enduring complaints and audits for a long time, all showed extraordinary agility in this emergency.

It was the first time this crazy girl stormed into a police station, but the officers began to respond quietly.

“…Three. Stop exchanging glances! Put your hands up!”

Boom!

The girl hit something with her baseball bat.

An aluminum lump struck the hand of a police officer who tried to press the emergency call button directly connected to a nearby district.

Hit!

“Ahkk! Ouch…!”

The aluminum object that hit the officer’s hand was some lump of soda cans.

It was surprising that the cans were lumped together to be that small, but it’s even more surprising that it was damaging enough to make an adult man collapse.

‘She’s a player…!’

‘This isn’t some normal strength!’

Fwaa! Hit! Crash!

Many of the officers completely stopped moving after realizing the girl’s abilities.

Those who tried to reach out to the emergency call device were quickly hit with the aluminum cans.

Swish! Crash!

“Ahk!”

“Euhhk!”

Three policemen were now collapsed on the floor.

The girl saw another man standing near the emergency button, so she kicked him and sent him flying.

At first, the girl seemed thoughtless and daring, but it turns out that she’s actually moving with caution.

It’s as if she’s thoroughly wary of emergency signaling devices.

‘Don’t tell me she can see everything!’

‘…All the recording devices in this station are off!’

Police stations are usually equipped with dozens of recording devices that operate 24/7.

However, given the corrupt nature of the officers in this station, they mess with the recording devices so that it’s not recording in real-time.

The officers usually leave fake videos of them being hard workers on the recording devices.

Whenever civil petitioners visit, they usually switch the recording device to its real-time mode.

In other words, not a single video of the girl’s rampage was recorded.

“I’m telling you to hand over to me the guy who’s affiliated with the pigs who were in my area yesterday. Do you all want to go through it together instead? I guess you useless pigs are all the same anyway. So you’re all loyal to each other, huh?”

The officers took notice of something.

The one that the girl is looking for is someone who ‘helped the pigs in her area’ yesterday.

It was none other than Officer Kim, a police inspector with player qualifications.

Officer Kim was a former player.

He was still young when he retired, so he volunteered to work as a police officer and relieve their stress by taking on dirty jobs.

“I’m going to count again. Three seconds left right? Three, two…”

The girl who already beat up several policemen started counting again.

It’s impossible for them to call for backup, or overpower the girl themselves.

There’s a clear power difference between them.

They have no choice but to point to Inspector Kim, the highest in rank among them.

At that moment…

Swoosh!

“…Oh?”

The newly recruited officer, who was profusely sweating with his both hands up, suddenly presented himself.

The girl walked toward the officer.

An old man behind the new officer kicked him and he almost lost his balance.

The old man whispered urgently to the new officer.

However, it was too late.

The girl was already too near to them.

“It’s that guy, ma’am.”

The girl immediately stopped counting when the old officer suddenly pointed to the new recruit.

“Is it really this guy?”

The girl pointed her baseball bat to the new recruit officer who still had both hands held up.

However, not one officer answered her.

The officers just glanced at each other.

“I asked if he’s the right guy!”

Bang!

In a threatening pose, the girl swung her bat to the ground.

The police officers panicked and all spoke consecutively.

“Y-yes, I think he was off duty yesterday ma’am!”

“I-I am positive that it was our youngest officer… I’m sorry!”

The new officer suddenly became the sacrificial lamb.

His face turned pale, but he couldn’t refute the other officers’ claims.

The new officer was at the bottom of the hierarchy of these thugs.

The girl who listened to the officers’ claims lifted her baseball bat high.

Hit!

“Ahkk!”

The girl moved as fast as lightning and hit the senior police officer in the head.

The same police officer who pointed to the new recruit as a scapegoat.

The police, who tried sacrificing his innocent subordinate, foamed at the mouth and fainted on the spot.

“You freaking gangsters. You’re all in this pyramid hierarchy, and you expect me to believe that this stick-looking guy is the one? I’m going to ask you all again. Who was the jerk involved yesterday?!”

Not one officer opened their mouth.

The girl gazed around the room slowly.

Her attention turned toward Inspector Kim and the two officers who seem like they were protecting him.

The girl spoke with conviction.

“Ah, looks like you’re the jerk in the highest rank in here.”

With the declaration of the girl and her machine-like voice, Inspector Kim materialized an item card.

The item card was somewhat like an energy gun.

He gathered energy wave steadily behind his back.

When sufficient energy wave piled up in his weapon, Inspector Kim swiftly pointed the gun and tried to shoot the girl.

“D-damn it! Ahhk!”

Shoot!

Boom!

Before the gun could be fully fired, the girl hit it with her baseball bat.

This caused the gun to be bent and explode right at Inspector Kim.

The inspector’s energy gun was actually made of gold.

The girl’s baseball bat being able to effortlessly destroy it meant one thing.

The bat was also made of gold or even a stronger material.

“Ah, ouch…!”

Inspector Kim grabbed his bloody hand and screamed.

“Kill her! I-I said kill her!”

The officers looked around each other before rushing towards the girl.

Although their police rank is the most important thing here, these lower-rank officers can’t deny that they also have some kind of connection to the unsavory events near the Eungwang Light Nursery.

There was not one of them who hadn’t received some kind of favor from Director Choi of the Namgung Group.

Thinking that it would mean more danger for them if this girl wasn’t rid of right now, they moved with all their might to capture her.

However.

Hit! Punch, kick!

“Geuuk!”

“Ahhh!”

The fight was completely one-sided.

Officers were beaten by the girl one by one, and they all ended up screaming in pain.

Some people loaded live ammunition, while others fired tasers, but they were all quickly overpowered.

The girl blocked bullets with her bat, and she continued to swing at her opponents even as she was hit with a taser gun.

As if it has no effect on her.

The girl swung harder at those who tried to attack her vital points.

The majority ended up either screaming or passing out right then and there.

“I better not see any one of you lurking around my area ever again. If you do… you’re all dead.”

In just a little over 10 minutes, the girl managed to turn the whole police station upside down.

She left the station as she dragged her bloody baseball bat outside.

The bat being dragged made a horrifying grotesque screeching sound.

“Hey, ahjussi. You better get your life together. ‘Cos if you don’t, I’ll take it from you.”

In the midst of the chaos, only the new officer wasn’t left injured.

His legs were drained of energy, so he collapsed on the ground and nodded at what the girl said.

* * *

In the air shuttle roaming around Eungwang District…

I asked what I couldn’t confirm at the airport.

“What do you mean we’re not the only ones moving?”

“Just now, I transferred my true self to the ‘Hwangmyeongho’ who is in the Silver Hall. I used my power as the Guardian of the Divine to look over Eungwang District.”

The power of the Guardian of the Divine?

It came out without much explanation, but only one ability that Hwang Jiho could use in this situation came to mind.

‘Could it be the same power he used during April Fool’s Day?!’

The April Fool’s Day that saved the Silver Tiger’s descendants.

Hwang Jiho became surrounded by golden particles, and he obtained the power to see everything that is in Eungwang District.

“Are you talking about the power that you used during April Fool’s Day?”

“Correct. I found something bothersome when I used that power.”

Hwang Jiho started up his device and presented a hologram to me.

In the hologram, there was a picture of a kid.

The kid’s long hair was dyed in a two-tone gradation, an ash-pink to cherry-pink.

‘This kid is…’

The girl in the picture was someone that I knew as well.

In the second semester inside the game, it couldn’t be forgotten that there was an NPC who joined the Year One Class Zero when only Hani was left in the class.

‘I think her hair was black in the game though.’

But the name matched what I knew.

Four characters, Dokgo Miro.

The name written at the bottom of the picture didn’t match the bright hair color and appearance of the girl at all.

Hwang Jiho spoke with some kind of a twinkle in his eyes.

“This Dokgo Miro was one of the students who was supposed to be part of Year One Class Zero. But she refused to go. And guess what? She just attacked a police station in Eungwang District. I checked the reports for my subordinates, and it seems like she’s on the run after successfully subduing the police station.”
