EX rank supporting role’s replay in a prestigious school

“Good job! What a wonderful performance, Jae-in!”

In the distance, Jared Lee fell to the floor and wept. The other team members, who were in charge of the lighting and sound, could also be seen crying or covering their mouths.

According to the information that had been obtained from the game and this world, it was their role to stop and block the team members when Kwon Jae-in was out of the way.

They seemed to have lost their minds, the whole group.

“Jae-in…”

“I feel like I’m going to cry, but I’m holding on. Please, stop it.”

“Oh, shut it, before the kids hear!”

There was no need to worry about that because I had already heard it all.

The Year 1 Class 0 people were perplexed when they saw the status of the Eternal Lake team members.

“What, uh… Playing’s pretty good.”

“Isn’t it because we had such a wonderful performance that brought tears to my eyes?”

“Hahaha, the Eternal Lake team members are reacting fiercely. Huh! In general, I heard that the top-ranked teams have a unique atmosphere!”

It was quite a unique atmosphere.

“I think my impression has changed since the last time I saw it. Is there any reason for that?”

Hwang Jiho merely looked at them with twinkling eyes.

“Everyone seems to have a lot of musical sensitivity and expressiveness! As expected, they are like Kwon Jae-in sunbaenim’s teammates!”

On the other hand, Kwon Lena was overcome with emotion, tears running down her eyes.

It was her reaction to Kwon Jae-in, who had a special fan feeling.

While we were wandering around. Kwon Jae-in, who had crossed the lake, approached in this manner.

“How was my performance?”

Kwon Jae-in then asked Han Yi, who was right next to Kwon Lena.

Was she too shy to ask her directly right after her performance? However…

‘It’s quite difficult.’

That was because Han Yi couldn’t hear.

It seemed that Kwon Jae-in hadn’t done a proper personal investigation.

“Senior, if it’s a sentiment, may I tell you first?” Yuri Kim hurriedly intervened right after noticing, Han Yi began to express her feelings first.

“It was very nice. The vibrations of the air that sounded whenever he moved his box, the particles of light that moved in response to his abilities, and the expressions on the faces of the people around us listening to the performance…”

Kwon Jae-in listened to Han Yi

After hearing that, she later realized that the girl was deaf, her eyes gradually widening.

“Just being here already makes me happy. Thank you for playing so well.”

Han Yi was smiling.

It was a precious smile that she had only ever shown to Gong Chung Hwen. Seeing that expression, all the classmates, even Hwang Jiho, shut their mouths as if they all felt surprised.

“If it’s okay with you, would you like to listen to me next time?”

“Yes, of course!”

After hearing Han’s wonderful impression, Kwon Jae-in led us to the team building.

While walking, I observed them.

‘Your face has improved a lot.’

I was relieved to see her face with a much better complexion compared to the last time I had seen her.

As she passed the barrier of the main gate following her guidance, people’s exclamations eventually burst out everywhere.

“The inside is made of so much foreign metal!”

“The décor is great, too! How much extraneous metal do you have in order to process to decorate to this extent?”

When you passed through the team building lobby and through two security portals connecting the inside of the building.

Hwang Jiho, who was watching the inside of the building with his eyes twinkling, began to murmur.

“I can feel the annoying Jinjok energy. You must come here often/”

Was he talking about the head of the western clan?

Judging from Hwang Jiho’s reaction, he often came and went, but he seemed to be absent right now.

Shh-

After passing through the third secure portal.

She opened the treble clef-embossed door.

“Come in.”

The door opened, leading them to what seemed to be the drawing-room.

It was not very large, as it was a waiting room that had to go through three security portals.

‘Probably a place to use when calling very close acquaintances.’

The feather fabric sofa was the same color as the blue wallpaper.

A small stage was installed within the innermost part of the drawing room. On the stage, there was an empty music stand, sound equipment, and a 3D stereoscopic playback device.

It seemed that Kwon Jae-in was holding a concert by inviting acquaintances in small ways.

“Sit down.”

As Kwon Jae-in suggested, she sat down and handed over a piece of paper according to the number of people.

The contents of the paper seemed to be a menu board.

Watching the blue violinist treat guests in person made me feel all subtle.

“Our team chef is on standby. It’s okay if it’s not on the menu. I’ll buy you the ingredients.”

It seemed that Kwon Jae-in and the Eternal Lake team had prepared well for the Year 1 Class 0 entertainment.

We couldn’t say no, so we each chose one off the dessert menu.

Since it was a bit hot today, most of them chose ice cream, shaved ice, or parfait.

After everyone had chosen…

“Lena, I think you should give it to me now.”

“Huh! I heard that Chef Tim Eternal Lake is a very famous pâtissier. I think it would be better to give before they can be compared.”

Kim Yuri and Lena Kwon could be heard whispering.

Upon hearing them, Kwon Jae-in tilted her head.

“There…. It’s not really a big deal, but I have prepared a present for you.”

Before the menu appeared, Kwono Lena took out two glass bottles from her tote bag.

It was blueberry and blue lemon juice that I made with my classmates.

Kwon Jae-in looked down at the two bottles and said that they had hardened for a while.

“Are you giving it to me?”

“Yeah!”

“Did you make it yourself?”

“Yeah…!”

Kwon Lena evidently looked increasingly anxious at Kwon Jae-in’s strange reaction.

“Jared, I want to keep this bottle forever. Introduce a player who has the relevant skill or Gwanglim.”

“I’ll find out right now!”

Jared Lee evidently came out of nowhere.

He had a poor expression because he had just cried, but his voice was hoarse.

“Thanks. I will cherish it forever.”

“Yeah?!”

Kwon Jae-in made a loud noise without any hesitation. Kwon Lena then replied with her eyes wide open.

“There… I’ll make it again. I just want you to drink it.”

“Will you make it again?”

“If only you’re okay with it…”

Hearing that answer, Kwon Jae-in smiled brightly.

“Thanks. Lena is a really good kid.”

“Did you remember my name?”

“Sure. Have you been playing the violin well?”

“Yeah! I haven’t been able to find a bow that goes well with the versatile violin yet, so I’m only practicing pizzicato instead of the arco technique. The pizzicato part, the introductory part of ‘Homecoming,’ played by seniors last time, was really cool…”

Suddenly, Kwon Jae-in’s face hardened.

Kwon Lena stopped talking, wondering if she had made a mistake.

As the silence continued, Kwon Jae-in opened his mouth.

“I forgot to give Lena a gift bow. Sorry…”

It was really difficult to understand Kwon’s thought circuit.

She said, “I’m very sorry,” unfolding a hologram and showing a number of photos of the multi-talented bow.

“Choose a bow you like.”

“Yeah? This is the versatile bow used by Kwon Jae-in!”

Kwon Lena, who was confused as to what she should answer with, felt startled.

“Don’t you like that I wrote?”

“I can’t! Can’t I just be grateful for my heart this time?”

“I want you to be grateful for the bow as well as your heart. If you don’t like it, I’ll get a new one.”

“Seniors…”

In the end, a magic bow passed into Kwon Lena’s hand.

Her hand was shaking as she took the card.

“Wow, that’s so cool!”

“You gave me a multifunctional violin when I was away.”

“Hahaha! Didn’t you say that last time? I missed quite a funny scene.”

While Maeng Hyo-don, Sawol Saeum, and Hwang Jiho were gossiping, there was silence among the girls.

Kim Yuri, along with a liberated expression, recalled a similar incident that had happened in the past.

Han Yi, after doubting whether he read his lips correctly, made a surprised expression when he saw the gift card.

Kwon Lena then went crazy while holding the card.

Even after the main chef came to the drawing room with dessert, the atmosphere was subtle.

“Senior, may I proceed with the interview?”

To change the atmosphere and to work as a newspaper member, I ended up breaking my luck.

“Okay, everyone, please rest here. If you tell Jared, he’ll prepare anything for you.”

When Kwon Jae-in and I got up from the sofa, another member of our class got up.

“There is one more newspaper department here.”

Hwang Jiho’s eyes were twinkling.

Yes, he was also a newspaper club member, first and foremost.

‘I expected what he was going to do from the moment I followed him, but I think he’s going to reveal his identity.’

Kwon Jae-in, who was watching him, widened her eyes.

On the day of Hoyeon-gwan’s performance, Kwon Jae-in ran into a 30-year old version of Hwang-ho, so she would eventually find out his identity.

I hung up before the conversation could take a bad turn.

“Alright, let’s go.”

After passing through the fourth security portal, a door embossed with a blue violin appeared.

It was the private room of Kwon Jae-in, who had come before.

As soon as I sat down on the sofa, Hwang Jiho brought up the main topic.

“Did you choose Jo Eushin as the interviewer because you were concerned about Seokchon Lake?”

“I was worried about seeing Eushin at the time, head of the baron.”

“After all, if you’re a player, you’ll recognize it right away. I didn’t hide it.”

Kwon Jae-in turned to look at Hwang Jiho with a confused expression.

Knowing that there was a head of the baron in the same class, my head began to hurt.

“The team building is full of energy from the leader of the Western clan. Did you know?”

“I owe you a lot of money. I gave permission for you to enter the building freely.”

“Did he ever help the Ung in interrogation?”

“Yeah.”

Hwang Jiho’s eyes lit up at Kwon’s words. One incomplete hypothesis had turned into a fact.

‘The head of the Western clan seems to be close to Hong Gyubin, a major figure in the Player’s Association, so I guessed it…’

Kwon Jae-in blocked the number of ‘He’ by attacking the great Manchester world.

There was no doubt that he had helped her interrogate the Ung for a long period of time in order to dig up substantial information.

‘One fewer long-tailed candidate, the traitor.’

The ‘extreme human hymnist’ that Hong Gyubin spoke of, the head of the West clan, was indeed a rookie. He was definitely not a traitor.

Because of this, there were only four candidates left.

They were the Wu (牛), the Sa (蛇), the Demon (horse), and the Yuan (猿).

“May I ask why you and Eushin are moving together?”

My thoughts then stopped at Kwon’s question.

Hwang Jiho answered right away without much thought.

“Jo Eushin is the benefactor of our noble family. He helped us, and we are helping him.”

I didn’t know that Hwang Jiho would say that in front of Kwon Jae-in.

“It’s also fun to observe.”

If I hadn’t said the last word, I might have been a little touched.

“Are you a human being? He’s still seventeen there, but he’s a benefactor of a noble family…”

“Hahahaha! Yep, this guy’s definitely human, and he’s seventeen. I know because I have researched it several times.”

As Hwang Jiho continued speaking, the violinist’s gaze became more and more burdensome.

I needed to get out of this topic right away.

“First, let’s start with the interview.”

He said this while unfolding the hologram materials he had received from the newspaper members and Moon Sae-ron in advance.

Hwang Jiho looked at me and suddenly laughed, but I ignored this.

Fortunately, Kwon Jae-in soon read the material and started answering questions.

When all the prepared questions were finished…

“Finally, this is a personal question.”

“Okay. Ask anything.”

It was a question I wanted to ask myself when I met Kwon Jae-in.

“I want to hear about the craftsman who made your versatile violin.”

“About what?”

I had a lot of questions.

I thought about what to ask first, and I came to the conclusion that it would be quicker to listen to myself.

Shall I ask Kwon Jae-in to let her legs go?

“Can I contact the father-in-law now?”

“No, you can’t. He died a while ago.”

This rendered me speechless for a moment.

Before I could express my condolences, Kwon Jae-in added a few words.

“His lifespan ended a long time ago, but the higher beings who cherished his talents managed to extend that lifespan. I heard that he left after passing everything on to his disciple.”

“Huh? Does he have any disciples?”

“Huh. I met him once. He introduced me to him, saying that he was going to be my junior in school.”

Kwon Jae-in’s junior?

After graduating from high school, Jae-in Kwon became a professional player.

Although he had received honorary degrees from several conservatories…

‘Which school are you referring to, where Kwon Jae-in came from?’

While I was thinking about the number of cases, she said something that went way beyond my expectations.

“If that child passed safely, he would be in the first year of Eungwang High.”
