I Become a Mafia in the Academy

Chapter 117:

Brother, ready, ready, ready?

As I was sitting in my seat, waiting for the other side to finish getting ready, Jiyun s voice came from the hallway, accompanied by the sound of shuffling feet.

Is she ready?

I turned my head to look toward the door and

My eyes met Jiyuns as she poked her head through the slightly open door.

Hehe.

She wore a pastel pink hat, a light blue dress, and a rabbit-shaped bag.

At a glance, it was clear that Alessia had dressed her with great care.

Isnt it pretty?

Pretty.

Jiyun spun around as she entered the room at my compliments so I stroked her hair and stood up from my seat.

Yes, youre beautiful. Your grandfather would love you. Do you remember your grandfather?

Apparently, she didnt really remember.

It had been a long time since they met.

Right, but shouldnt you be scared of him because you havent seen him in a long time?

Neeee~ Ah! Alessia wants to come out now!

Okay, lets go out with her.

Okay!

Holding onto Jiyuns small hand, we walked out of the mansion together and saw eight black sedans lined up.

As ever, its a spectacular sight.

The sight could only be described as a presidential motorcade.

Each and every one of the sedans were luxury vehicles that had been magically enhanced to withstand any kind of attack.

Brother, theres Alessia!

I looked to where Jiyun was pointing and saw Alessia, not in her usual clothes, but in a suit, standing in front of the sedan, waiting for us.

Alessia in a suit.

She opened the back door and bowed as Jiyun and I approached.

At your service, Master.

Is your body fully recovered?

Yes. There werent many wounds sustained during the battle in the first place, so there are no after-effects.

Im glad to hear it, then.

The car departs only after were all seated.

Hmph~ Hmph~

Jiyun hummed as she watched the scenery through the tinted windows, while Alessia watched her surroundings without saying a word.

The car is driving down the road in silence.

Suddenly, I wondered, does Jiyun know Haru?

Jiyun, do you know Haru?

Sister Haru? Sister Haru!

Jiyun exclaims, throwing her arms in the air.

The pretty sister who used to play with Jiyun whenever there were a lot of people!

Did they know each other after all?

Haru is coming too?

When Jiyun raised her head and talked about it as if she was too happy, I replied with a cheesy smile.

Yep. Shes coming with us.

Jiyun is happy!

She seems to have a good relationship with her, so I shouldnt worry too much.

There she is.

Before I knew it, I arrived at the address Id given her and found Haru standing somewhere.

Shes standing there silently, looking at me, holding the items I asked for in her hands.

Waaaah! Sister!

Just a moment, miss.

Jiyun looks like shes about to jump up and run to Haru, but her gesture is cut short by Alessia.

It was a basic rule of Corleone security that no one was allowed to wander around unchecked.

Zii-ii-ii-ing

A moment later, a black curtain rose around the cars.

It was a spell Id seen a few times in the game, a spell that completely blocked the view of the surroundings.

This was done to prevent outsiders from recognizing which vehicle we were in.

Alessia, who had just gotten out of the car, greeted Haru and opened the door to where I was sitting.

Big sister-!

Long time no see, huh?

Jiyun waves vigorously at Haru.

When I greet her through the open door, she comes over and bows.

Long time no see. Master, miss. May I be excused for a moment?

Haru leaves her baggage in Alessias hands and casually takes a seat next to me.

Shes dressed modernly and neatly for the occasion.

You look good in casual clothes.

The clothes she wore at the academy werent exactly casual, but her appearance in casual clothes was different.

Thank you. These are Maestroclothes, right?

These are the best clothes I have, and since its been a while since Ive seen you, I should show you that Im in good shape.

The performance of the equipment she was wearing was very important.

Sis, what about me? What about my clothes?

Yes, youre dressed very nicely, dear, and you look very well.

Heehee. You look so pretty, too.

Im not a very good talker, so Ive been sitting in silence or only talking when Jiyun approaches me, but now I feel like we can go to a less awkward place.

Lets get back on the road, then.

Alessia gets into the vehicle and the curtain around them dissipates, and the cars begin to move.

As expected, security in Corleone is beyond my wildest dreams. I didnt expect this many people.

Haru talks while looking at the cars that are closely escorted from the front and back.

I think its because Jiyun is here, so my dad was concerned.

Id be able to respond immediately to a fight or assassination attempt, but not Jiyun.

Thats certainly true, and since the people who will succeed Corleone will be traveling together.I can understand that.

Is that so?

She was right, it did make sense when I remembered that this world wasnt normal.

There must be a lot of crazy people out there.

We drove through a forest of buildings and concrete, gradually making our way toward the outer perimeter, until we came to a stop in front of a huge mansion.

Grandpas house is big!

Seouls premier wealthy neighborhood was newly formed where Bugaksan Mountain once stood and the biggest mansion in the neighborhood was the mansion of the Hanwol Group.

I guess security is important for Corleone, so its small compared to a mansion of this size.

Alessia smiled at Jiyuns words and told me the reason.

No, my house isnt that small to say that.

In fact, its so big that I wonder if its hard to manage it every day.

Jiyun nods and says, Oh, ! but clearly doesnt understand.

After entering the garden, we get out of the car one by one and look at the entrance of the mansion.

Apparently waiting for us, there was a group of Hanwol members lined up at the entrance and a middle-aged man stood at the head of the line.

Wow, I havent seen you in a long time.

It was the butler of the Hanwol group, practically the strongest man in the neighborhood.

It was Kim Kang-chul.

Hello, master and miss.

Master and Miss!!!

I never thought Id see the day that Kim Kang-chul would bow down to me.

It was probably when I was a thief with the magical girl concept, switching between my transformation form and my normal form to commit the perfect crime, and I was terrified when I was caught by him while robbing the best mansion in Bugaksan.

Despite having the strength of an S-class hero in the games specs at the time, not only did I fail to escape, but I was almost killed in the ensuing battle.

At the time, I used my strength to get through it, but at the time, I thought my character would be deleted.

As the place was off-limits to normal players, information about it was very scarce, and I remember the community was filled with posts from victims who, unlike me, were unable to escape.

[Title: I dont have money for rare ingredients, so I robbed Bugaksan and met some final boss-level guy, and came with funeral condolence money. What the hell is that?]

[Author: YoriKingAssassinKing]

[ : You tried to rob the biggest mansion in Bugaksan?]

[YoriKingAssassinKing: Isnt there a rich mans house there?]

[A : Im supposed to target only the bee house, but when I touch the long-lived wasp house, I get stung]

[Assassin : The butler at the Hanwol Group headquarters is a former war hero. If you touch him, youll die instantly]

[YoriKingAssassinKing: No why is such a guy standing guard at a rich house]

[ : Ahhh, its a national rule that the guard is a munchkin]

[ : Its called Seoul Bugaksan Hidden Boss, right?]

But now hes bowing down in front of me and calling me Master.

This is something to live for.

Hello!

In response to their greeting, Jiyun casts her trademark navel greeting.

According to what I asked Alessia before coming here, this is my first time here too, so I should act normal.

Eugene Han Corleone.

I walk up to Kim, who is standing at the very front of the crowd, bowing to us, and offer my hand.

He glances in my direction, straightens his bowed back, and takes my hand.

Ive heard many stories about you and its an honor to serve you.

The first time I held his arm, it felt very rough and hard.It felt like my character was going to be deleted for taking a punch like that  and I felt like I was going to have PTSD.

I was reliving the past and convincing myself that I was wrong.

Youre strong, Ive heard youre a junior member of the Academy, but its strange that youre not a senior.

He looks at me, quite surprised, as if hes guessed my prowess just by holding my hand.

I dont sense any aura or mana in his hand, so he must have some kind of skill or method.

The butler is just as much of a monster as I am, so ah, shall we go inside?

I let go of his hand and gesture for him to follow me inside, and he nods.

Yes. Follow me, and Ill lead you to the chairman.

With that, Kim leads the way through the slowly opening doors of the mansion.

Before I follow him, I extend my hand toward Jiyun.

In such a large place with so many people?

I take my brothers hand!

Thats right, you remember well?

I grab Jiyuns hand and try to walk in with her, but she pulls me away and turns to Haru.

Ill take your other hand!

May I hold this young ladys hand?

Yes!

Jiyuns smile has the ability to melt peoples hearts.

Even Haru, who usually doesnt show much expression, eventually smiles back and takes her hand.

Well, lets go inside then, miss.

Yes! Dont you think youll get lost and Jiyun should hold your hand?

She wasnt holding her hand because she was afraid shed get lost, she was holding her hand because she was afraid Haru would get lost.

Still, Haru smiled and nodded.

Yes. Ill trust you.

Hee hee. Big brother, lets go!

Yeah, yeah.

With that, the three of us walked into the mansion, hand in hand.

The entrance is a huge foyer with artwork all around.

The layout doesnt look too different from what I know.

Oh, thats the painting I threw at Kim Kang-chul while running away.

As we walked around, appraising the artwork throughout the mansion, we eventually came to a stop.

This is the chairmans study.

Unlike the other rooms, a door with multiple inscriptions appears before us.

It could be an artifact, judging by the amount of magic it emits.

After casually knocking on such a door, Kim Kang-chul opened his mouth.

Mr. Chairman, Master and Miss are here along with Ms. Haru from the Inomiya Group.

-Let them in.

A cold mid-bass voice came from inside.

I wonder if its because of the reality that Im finally going to meet the man whos called the head of the Hanwol Group.

As Im about to step inside with nervousness

Grandfather!!!

Our teams secret weapon, Jiyun, took the initiative.
