Chapter 121:
Alex de Cantone and Ryu Cheol-myeong.
The two men, sharing the elitist mindset typical of those from higher dimensions, had maintained a fairly good relationship so far. However, an unexpected incident caused a slight rift between them.
“Professor Ryu Cheol-myeong, I trusted you… but what are we supposed to do if you just keep boosting those guys’ positions?”
“So, are you blaming me now?”
Ryu Cheol-myeong’s response to Cantone was endlessly irritable. How could Ryu Cheol-myeong have known that Ban Yu-won would master Aura? Those from lower dimensions are inferior, and even if they seem somewhat capable, their true nature as worms will eventually be revealed, leading to their inevitable downfall. He had lived with this belief for hundreds of years, only to face a backlash while trying to prove it.
‘Sooner or later, that guy will eventually fall. Those born lowly have a clear limit to their ascension. But until then, they might deceive people a bit. Unfortunately, I got caught up in that… damn it!’
Moreover, due to this incident, word spread within the Academy about what he had been doing to students, and not only Yumina but other professors were also looking at him unfavorably.
Ironically, because Ban Yu-won had achieved results, Ryu Cheol-myeong wasn’t immediately reprimanded, but he would have to be cautious even during lectures from now on.
“Blame? No… let’s just say the conversations between us never happened.”
