I Became a Mafia in the Academy - Chapter 242
Chapter 242
The morning we were supposed to go to the sea.
Since I couldn’t bring the children to the Corleone mansion, I asked the rector for a favor and arranged to borrow the helipad inside the academy.
“Of course, its vacation, so you’re welcome to use it, haha!
Is it because my family donates so much money to the academy?
If not, it was because of his personal relationship with my father, that the president graciously lent us the helipad to use as we pleased.
Apparently, the children like to meet at the academy, where they always go to and from.
The result.
I was now the only one waiting for them at the academy gate.
“I’m here too soon.”
I didn’t have any luggage in my hands or on my back.
Everything that would be useful for this trip had been crammed into my cube.
It was so relaxing to not have to carry a suitcase or bag.
I pulled a camping chair out of the cube and sat down to play a game on my phone.
I started to see something huge in the distance.
What is that?
I get up from your chair to check it out.
“Huh? Ohhh?! Boss!”
A huge bag of luggage on his back.
Underneath it, I see Jin-woo’s figure striding toward me with a huge smile of anticipation.
“You’re here already?”
Jin-woo waves his hands in the air when he spots me.
I couldn’t tell if he was going on a beach trip or moving.
“What? I don’t see your luggage, didn’t you pack?”
“BecauseI have a subspace artifact.” 𝒩ewW 𝒏ovels upd𝒂tes on nov/𝒆l/b(i)𝒏(.)com
“Oh. You did, didn’t you? I’m so jealous.”
“More than that, what’s with the luggage? Are you moving or something?”
I ask out of genuine curiosity, as I’ve never seen luggage of that size before, even for traveling, and he scratches his head in disbelief.
“Well, it’s my first time traveling with friends, so I packed everything I thought I’d need. Oh, do you want to see boss?”
“No.”
I sighed and opened the Interdimensional Warehouse, realizing that not only would it be an inconvenience to carry this much stuff on the helicopter, but it would also cause weight problems.
A small warehouse suddenly appeared in front of me with a click.
“Just put it in here, I’ll give it back to you when we get to the hotel.”
“Oh?! You’re the boss!”
Jin-woo immediately throws the bag into the warehouse.
He turns around and leans his back against the school gate, a look of relief on his face.
“Ugh, I think I’m going to live. I thought I was going to die of discomfort.”
“Still, it’s not that heavy a weight for an Awakened, is it?”
“Yeah, but I can’t help but feel uncomfortable.”
“I think it’s weird that you want to be comfortable carrying that much weight.”
As I was killing time by chatting with Jin-woo, three more kids started arriving in quick succession.
Young-jae came with a large backpack and a decent amount of luggage. Apparently, he had enchanted the luggage itself to reduce its weight.
Se-ah arrived with a suitcase in tow. Her luggage was just as modest.
“Hey.”
“Huh?”
“Your luggage.”
“Oh, here.”
Since she was walking towards this place empty-handed, I thought she was bringing a subspace artifact, but Choi Yeon came with only 6 swords in a subspace scabbard.
” Is this your luggage?”
“Yep. Everything I need.”
No way, she didn’t bring any clothes or anything else.
“You didnt bring any clothes?”
I ask, and she shakes her head in disbelief.
“Can’t I just buy everything there?”
“Oh.”
I’d forgotten about her personality.
Her family was the Choi Sword Family, and she was the granddaughter of a tycoon.
“Looks like everyone else is here, so shall we leave?”
We went to the Academy’s helipad with the rest of the children who had packed their luggage in the two-dimensional warehouse.
The helicopter was standing still with its engine off, waiting for us to gather.
“Wow real. That chopper is fucking huge.”
Jin-woo climbs in, exclaiming incessantly, followed by Se-ah, who tries to act like it’s no big deal, but her legs are shaking.
Young-jae and Choi Yeon climb into the helicopter in silence, as if they’re used to it compared to the other two.
Choi Yeon didn’t expect Young-jae to be so used to it, so when she looked at him in surprise, he smiled as if it wasn’t a big deal.
“I’m used to it because I’ve been traveling around my mentor.”
Ah, now that I think about it, he did say that he often traveled with his mentor.
It was said that mages with multiple attributes were often influenced by their environment, so it was understandable that they moved around a lot.
-We are preparing for takeoff, everyone on board fasten your seatbelts.
The pilot’s voice came from the headset I was wearing, and a roar began to fill the air around me.
Finally, the helicopter is slowly rising.
I looked at Jin-woo and Se-ah, who were constantly making ohhh’ sounds, and we headed for the East Sea.
* * *
“Oh, I’m going to die. Ugh!”
“Guess all that excitement is useless against motion sickness.”
The helicopter lands on the roof of the hotel and Jin-woo jumps out, flopping onto the ground.
Young-jae giggles like it’s funny and Se-ah can only stare at him like he is pathetic.
“Young-jae, take care of Jin-woo. Let’s go check in right away.”
“Check in? What kind of hotel is this?”
Jin-woo asked, looking up with a puzzled expression on his face.
“You’ll find out when we get there.”
We take the elevator in the helipad and head to the lobby.
-Ting!
The elevator stops and the doors open on both sides.
At the same time, we see the hotel’s employees, who were waiting for us in advance, bowing to us.
“Thank you very much for coming to our hotel.”
“””Thank you!”””
The children are bewildered by the sudden welcome.
As we stepped out of the elevator, we saw the hotel logo emblazoned with a familiar name and picture.
Hanwol Hotel’
It was a hotel run by the Hanwol Group, my maternal grandfather’s group.
“Oh, you said Eugene’s family is related to the Hanwol Group.”
The children already knew that my family was related to the Hanwol Group, so they all seemed to be convinced.
In fact, a hotel was not a big deal since we had already traveled by helicopter.
I’m glad I asked my grandfather.
“Im Mr. Park Chul-gyu, the manager of this hotel. We’ll take care of checking you in and show you to your room.”
This scene shows that money and power can make things easier.
As I followed the manager ahead of me, I could hear children shouting behind me.
Hey, do hotels usually let you check in first?
“Doesn’t this all come from Mr. Eugene’s wealth?
I didn’t expect such hospitality. I guess expensive hotels are different.
.’
Everyone seemed to be satisfied.
We boarded the VIP elevator guided by the manager. There was only one floor, PH’.
“This elevator can only be used by guests and a few others, so please make yourself comfortable.”
After a short explanation the elevator goes up at breakneck speed.
Soon enough, the elevator doors open and my eyes light up.
“Wow!”
Se-ahs voice is full of admiration.
It’s no wonder she’s so excited.
The space is as large as the number of floors, and the vastness of the ocean stretches out beyond the windows. The view of the East Sea horizon stretching out as far as the eye could see was spectacular.
“Eight rooms and two kitchens. There are nine restrooms, and the mini bar and food here are all service, so please enjoy.”
With that, I gave a quick bow of gratitude to the manager, who disappeared back into the elevator, and then clapped my hands to get the children’s attention.
“Alright, then, let’s quickly pick a room, unpack, and move right away. There’s someone waiting for us downstairs.”
“There’s someone waiting for us?”
Young-jae asked, puzzled by my words.
“Well, we’ve all never been to an ocean dungeon before, so I’ve asked someone I know to be our guide. I don’t know much about him, but I hear he’s pretty good, so it would be rude to be late.”
My father and godfather asked, but I dont need to know, since I didn’t really know either.
I only knew that he was a great man and that his name was Hoen.
If my father and godfather are said to be great people, there’s no way I wouldn’t know, but who is he? Hoen? There’s no such personbut there’s no way my father would lie to me.
That bothers me.
The other kids, including myself, unpacked our bags and headed straight to the lobby.
According to the information I had received, Hoen was located in the cafe in the lobby of the Hanwol Hotel.
I walked in with the kids and was immediately greeted by a voice.
“Mix everything with ice cream!”
I heard a cheerful uncle’s voice from somewhere.
As I turned my head to see who was making so much noise in the hotel, I saw a figure that defied my common sense.
Blonde hair slicked back neatly, a golden beard that covered his nose and chin but was neatly trimmed.
“Ma! How’s that? Is it straight or smooth?”
“Yes.”
And a familiar face, silently drinking coffee in front of him.
“Isn’t that Kang Hyun?”
Young-jae must have spotted him, too, because he looked at the familiar face and was puzzled.
Why would Kang Hyun be here? Wait a minute.
Old dialect. A foreigner. Hoen.
No way.
“Young Hoham?”
I say his name out loud, just in case, and his gaze snaps this way.
“Huh? Huh?! I’m Hoham, and you’re his son?”
After all, seeing him face to face confirmed it.
The marine dungeon specialist my father told me about, Hoen was Young Hoham.
“Huh? If it’s Young Hoham, he must be Kang Hyun’s mentorAah! So?!”
The other kids start nodding their heads as if they understand the situation.
Regardless, he storms over and stands in front of me.
“Is there a person named Hoen?.
“Huh? Hahahahaha! How nice to meet you! How nice to meet you! Yes, I am Hoen! My name before naturalization was Nul Hoen! Oh, by the way, I learned Korean in a weird way, so my dialect is mixed, so you’ll have to forgive me, but you already know me, don’t you?”
He stops introducing himself and points to Kang Hyun in the back.
“This is my mentee, Choi Kang Hyun, and I’m going to take this opportunity to teach him about the Marine Dungeon. Isn’t it okay between classmates?”
Apparently, he brought Choi Kang Hyun along to help him grow this time.
He was the number one person our club was looking to bring in when we upgraded to Silver Club.
To be able to go to the dungeon with such a guy is a great feeling.
“Of course, aren’t we friends?”
It was a gift from the heavensNo, it was a gift from the sea.
