ReLife Player

Chapter 112

[Athletic events].

Every October, there is an autumn sports day.

It was the third sports day for Eunha. By that time, he knew where the suitable resting spots were, where he could hide and leisurely pass the time.

Wearing a blue hat, as soon as the opening ceremony ended, he planned to slip away.

Of course, Minji had no intention of letting him get away with it.

Teacher, No Eunha is running away!

Come on. When did I run away? I was just going to use the restroom.

Humph! The bathroom, my foot!

Eunha approached Minji, giving her a sidelong glance, and argued playfully against her.

Minji didnt back down either.

This year, with determination to win, she wasnt forgiving Eunhas laziness.

No Eunha, Kim Minji. Do you want to make a scene in front of the parents?

Instead of scolding the kids, Im Dohon pointed around the field with a solemn tone.

The parents who came to watch the sports day were sitting on mats under the colorful trees.

Somewhere out there was their family.

Or should I take a picture and post it on the schools online platform?

Im sorry.

Posting on the platform was out of the question.

They remembered when a video of them arguing in the classroom was posted last year.

The look on their parents faces was terrifying.

On top of that, they had to submit a ten-page reflection paper.

I can only imagine the pain of writing them over and over again, having to start from scratch if they scribbled something out.

We dont want the victory. Please, just dont cause trouble.

Dohoons words were filled with earnestness.

Eunha knew.

Dohon and Alice Group had been trying to contain the Mosquito Fly outbreak.

Thats why his face looked so old and tired.

Of course, he didnt say it.

No, sir. Im going to make sure my class wins!

Dont get hurt.

Teacher, if you do, please buy us drinks, well feel more energized!

Minji showed her enthusiasm.

Right next to her, Eunhyuk interrupted. Wearing a blue hat on his head, he clasped his hands together and sang, Drinks! Drinks! Drinks!

The boys who were close to him started singing as well, forming a circle around Im Dohon.

I dont have any money.

Eeeeeee! Youre lying!

Teacher, buy me a drink!

Dohon responded indifferently.

The kids protests were expected.

Eunha, who had been silently observing the situation, inserted a dagger into Dohoon.

Teacher, I know you have a lot of money.

What?

Aside from receiving a teachers monthly salary, he was also a key player for the Alice Group, so its not like he wouldnt have extra income.

Eunha chuckled, looking at Dohon with a raised eyebrow.

Ha.

Dohoon adjusted his glasses and waved his hand dismissively at the kids who were drawing circles and singing.

Okay, Ill buy it later. Well stick to Coke, no arguments.

Youre the best~!!!

The kids cheered.

Im Dohon frowned, but he didnt seem to mind the noise.

His steps seemed lighter as he made his way to the tent where the other teachers were gathered.

Then I should probably go rest somewhere quiet. Dont look for me until its my turn. Just dont do it, really.

What are you talking about?

Why, whats up.

Eunha aimed his finger playfully at Minji.

Minji looked at him with a bewildered expression.

Because its your turn.

Already?

Had time passed so quickly?

It didnt feel like it had been that long since he had gotten into trouble with the teacher.

But what was the event I was competing in anyway?

Come on, its a scavenger hunt.

A scavenger hunt? I dont remember signing up for that.

Of course you dont, because I just squeezedyou into a spot left over from when you were sleeping.

What are you talking about?

Eunha stared at Minji in disbelief.

Minji hummed and shrugged.

Dont you know who I am? Im the president.

Minji had been president since the second semester.

In short, she was bossy.

No way. You should stop being president. Youre not president, youre a dictator.

Why not. You want to do it then?

That was another no.

Eunha couldnt say anything to her, who was smiling so innocently.

Hearing the announcement over the speakers at the field that the scavenger hunt was about to start, Eunha grumbled inwardly.

After all, the only events he had to participate in were the compulsory ones and one in the morning and one in the afternoon.

It was probably for the best.

In the morning, he could finish the scavenger hunt and then skip around until lunchtime.

Id skip the gourd popping and tug-of-war. Even if he wasnt around, Minji, who has been strong since she was a little girl, would be able to handle it.

So he would just have to come back later in the afternoon and participate in the rest of the events.

Ill be watching you, No Eunha! You have to come back!

Dont you trust me?

The skys the limit!

Geez. Weve known each other since we were babies, and thats all there is to it.

I had no intention of coming back, as Minji had said.

But when she said she didnt believe me, it made me want to come back.

I really wasnt going to come back.

Huh? Are you out too, Eunha?

Hi.

Oh, I lost. Surrender!

We havent even started yet, whats wrong?

Surrender is surrender. If I cant beat Eunhyuk, how can I beat you, Eunha!

The kids gathered at the edge of the playground for a scavenger hunt.

Eunha met Yeon sungjin from the next class there.

He sighed as he adjusted his glasses, having spent the entire vacation at the academy. He and the other third-graders were all in the same boat.

Those who had been in Eunhas class, or who knew of his athleticism, had already given up.

Whatever comes out, Ill be the first one to get it!

My family is coming to watch today, and Im going to get the first place!

The younger kids, on the other hand, were eager to compete amongst themselves.

Im sorry, kids.

Standing at the starting line, Eunha apologized inwardly as he glanced at the children who were eager to step on the line and run.

Somewhere out there, Eunae was watching.

He didnt want to show an unsightly sight to her.

I didnt like the idea of participating in a sports meet, but I was going to do what I had to do.

Soon, the teacher at the starting line detonated the gunpowder.

All the kids ran to the table in the center of the playground.

Eunha led the way. He didnt even have to use his mana against them.

He reached into the basket and pulled out a note.

What is this!

(doggy)

What in the world is ? ?! (doggy)

It was an unfamiliar word.

Eunha pressed his face against the paper. He flipped it over and turned it sideways.

Everywhere he looked, it said (doggy).

Hey, Yeon Seongjin! What does mean!?

Meanwhile, one by one, the children who had arrived ran out of the tent to retrieve their things as soon as they saw the note.

Eunha showed his note to Sungjin, who came running up breathlessly.

? Ah!

Sungjin gasped, too.

Then he stared at the note and seemed to realize something.

This is not , its !

Doggy? Why is this a doggy?

Look, if you look closely, its not a d, its an m, isnt it?

Who wrote this note?

Eunha, who finally realized the meaning of doggy.

He cursed the scribbler and rushed out to the playground.

Strangely, there was no dog in sight.

It turned out to be a hen instead of a pheasant.

Jin-seona! Follow me!

Eh! Eh! What did you get?

Seona, go!

Eunha ran to Seona, who was sitting with the girls watching the game.

Min-ji happened to be there.

Even though the blue team had won, she was eager to do whatever it took to get the highest grade in her third grade class.

Minji pushed Seonas back, not caring what note Eunha had pulled out.

Come on, run!

Do I really have to show it there?

Well, shell be mad if I show her.

Eh, I dont know. Lets just run and see.

Eunha grabbed Seonas hand and ran to the finish line.

They couldnt win first place, but they could win third. Fortunately, the team that got first place was the Blue Team.

Can I see your note?

Yes, here.

Eunha showed the note to the teacher at the goal line.

Are you a doggy, Seo-na?

Why would I be a doggy?

Seona asked with an axe-eye. She even set her fingernails on end, as if to say that she wouldnt let them off the hook depending on the answer.

Eunha smiled softly. He placed his hands on her shoulders, turned her to face the teacher, and spoke into her pointed ear.

Seona, the blue team has to win.

No matter how you put it!

Quickly. Bark like a dog.

And Im a fox, not a dog!

Well, foxes are in the dog family.

I didnt bother to say the last one.

Eunha looked at Seona, who looked back at him with serious eyes.

After a long moment of eye contact, she gave in.

Woof.

Uh, yeah. A doggy.

The nervous teacher walked past them.

And Eunha,

No Eunha, dont stand there!

I wont be back until lunch, so the rest of you are on your own!

Before Seona could catch him, Eunha executed the Thirty-Sixth Heavenly Stairway. Although Seona was an Ain, she couldnt catch Eunha who had consumed mana and escaped.

I hate you, No Eunha!!!

Seona shouted from the center of the field.

Ah, that was tough.

Seona had also grown a lot.

At the moment when she followed behind, consuming mana, he was momentarily afraid.

It was a scene that showed how much faster things could get with an Ains true effort, and how quickly one could progress.

So, where should I go to rest?

There might be a hiding place near where Im going to rest, but the kids who followed Lee Kanghyuk would probably be using it as a smoking spot.

Eunha decided to go to the closest place to his current location.

The grassy area behind the cafeteria.

If it was out of sight of the playground, it would be deserted until lunchtime.

Yoo Nam Hoon? What?, Im an invisible dragon?

Sorry. But you were the first person that came to mind.

Why me!

Then Eunha saw a boy and a girl arguing along the road.

Yoo Nam hoon?

Was he from this school?

Eunhas eyes widened when he heard the name of the boy being scolded by the girl.

<Immunity to Myriad Poisons> Yoo Nam hoon.

Before the regression, the Yoo Nam hoon he knew was a player with a reputation for being reserved but loyal

But the Yoo Nam-hoon he knew was not here.

He didnt have a scar running diagonally across his face, and he didnt have a reserved demeanor; he had an open and lively expression.

He was two years older than me.

He and Yoo Nam hoon had partied together for a while, but the two of them, who didnt speak much, didnt know anything about each other.

There was one thing, though.

Yoos past, which every player knew.

What, you want me to do that?

You were good last time!

The strongest of the dragons, the Invisible Dragon, roared. Kaaaaaaaah! This? Do you want to get beaten up by a strong invisible dragon?!!

See! Youre doing great. Ouch! Sorry! Stop hitting me!

I wonder if that girl is Yeoubi?

I had no memory of the girl.

All he knew was that the childhood friend Yoo Nam hoon liked had the name Yeoubi.

<Detoxification> Yoo Nam-hoon.

As the name suggests, his gift was <Detoxification>, which detoxifies toxins.

<Detoxification> was not a rare gift; there were some people who had the gift of neutralizing poison, although it varied by individual.

However, Yoo Nam-hoons Immunity to Myriad Poisons <Detoxification> was a gift that neutralized all poisons.

He realized his gift when a monster army invaded Gangbuk.

He didnt join any clan, but fought off the invasion in a party organized by his childhood friend Yeoubi.

He came face to face with the Lizard King, one of the legion commanders

Its a famous story.

Yoo Nam hoon protected his loved one from the poison expelled by the Lizard King, enveloping her with his own body.

But she was poisoned and died, and he survived alone thanks to the effects of <Detoxification>

People sometimes become demons when they lose something.

Especially if the lost thing is something so precious that it can never be regained.

Hardened by evil, he asked the Twelve to prove the value of his gift and put him at the forefront of the fight against the Lizard King.

He was strong. The best horse to hold the Lizard King in check.

Eunha remembered Yoo Nam-hoon wielding his sword with nothing but hatred for the monster.

Anyway, if you do it again, I wont leave you alone.

Im sorry. Do you want some chocolate?

You shouldve given it to me if you had any!

The two of them treated each other without reservation.

Eunha walked past them.

I dont know what will happen in this life.

Yoo Nam hoon, whether he would lose Yeoubi or not in this life.

Well, do your best.

Of course, it had nothing to do with him.
