I Became a Mafia in the Academy

Chapter 32

Luckily, it’s one thing to see it in a game, but it’s another to see it in person.

The information in the game was really like reading a text, so there were some parts that were easy to skip, but…….

Park Yun-ho, however, took the quality of his explanations to another level.

“There are two types of villains who take hostages and demand negotiations. The best way to distinguish between them, and the safest for the hostage, is to attack them,” he says.

“Won’t attacking them hurt the hostages?”

“You’d have to control your force, of course. Make the attack as flashy but weak as possible, almost like a performance. If you do that, he’ll either panic or realize that the deal is off and run away.”

This is what he taught his students: realistic and practical tips.

The students were enthusiastic because they realized that what they were learning was not “state secrets,” but information that they would need to be heroes.

At this point, Park Yun-ho, who was teaching the children with great enthusiasm, suddenly stopped talking.

“Oh no, the time has already come.”

At the same time, the bell rang in the classroom. It meant that the morning period was over and it was time for lunch.

“Today’s class will end here, and since it’s the first class, there are no assignments today.”

“Thank you!”

Park nodded to the children and left the classroom.

At the same time, the children got up from their seats and headed to the crowded cafeteria.

“Boss, it’s lunchtime, aren’t you eating?”

Jin-woo asks, tapping me on the shoulder to go to the cafeteria with me as usual.

“I should eat, but I have a separate lunch appointment.”

“Hmm?”

Jin-woo’s eyes widened at that.

“Boss, did you have friends besides us?”

Is he asking for a beating?

“I’m going to the International Trade Club……I have to deal with some matters about the club so I’m afraid you’ll have to eat by yourselves today.”

“Wow, what are you doing working on your lunch break? Is that how you got a billion dollars in allowance? Well, whatever.”

“I’ll go first.”

“Have fun~”

I leave Jin-woo behind as he spouts off his bullshit, and head to the International Trade Club.

After yesterday’s incident, the staff members immediately recognized me and led me to the department head’s office, where Lee Haru.

As I walk through the door, I make eye contact with Haru, who’s already lined up her lunchbox on the table.

“Ah. You’re here, Master.”

“……I apologize for scheduling this appointment at lunchtime.”

“It’s okay, it’s not really lunchtime, it’s just a quick meal and then we’ll catch up.”

As she says this, she puts down the last bento box she’s carrying and points to the seat in front of her.

“I’m pretty weak from preparing it in the rundown kitchen after your call this morning, but…….Please have a seat.”

“Hmm? Prepared, you mean you made it?”

The quality of the bento boxes on the table was such that it would not be an exaggeration to say that they were made by professional chefs, and they were gorgeous, but this one was made by Haru.

“What’s……wrong with it?”

Haru shook her head, probably puzzled by my reaction.

“No, it’s not that, I just thought you were more talented than I imagined.”

She nods as if my words made sense.

“It’s because I’ve been trained by my family since I was a kid, and I’ve always liked cooking.”

Haru likes to cook?

I’m intrigued by this new revelation.

I wonder if it’s a habit from when I was a gamer. Sometimes, there’s a certain satisfaction that comes from learning information in a game that you wouldn’t otherwise know.

[Encyclopedia updated].

[Character Book (N)]

Especially when it’s updated like this.

[Name: Haru]

[Affiliation: Inomiya Group, Academy]

[Description: Her real name is Haru Inomiya. She is the eldest daughter of an Inomiya Group director and one of the next Inomiya Group heirs. She has been close to Corleone since she was a child due to her work with the group, and her education has given her versatile abilities. Her favorite among them is cooking.]

If it’s listed in the book, it’s probably because she likes it so much that it’s a characteristic.

The extent to which she enjoys cooking is evident from the fact that she is clutching her pants as if nervous.

“To say that these dishes are good would be an understatement, they’re rather excellent.”

“Really……?”

Hearing my words, Haru bowed her head deeply. I nodded to her and sat down.

“Do you mind if I eat?”

“Please.”

Cautiously, I accept the chopsticks she offers me and move my hand to the most prominent dish.

“Mmm……?”

The meat disappears as soon as I put it in my mouth.

“You’re better than the chefs of the……family. You’re amazing.”

A look of bewilderment appeared on her face at my sincere compliment.

“…….”

Haru was blushing but then she caught my eye and her face returned to normal as if by magic.

“That’s a lot of food. Come on, let’s eat before it gets cold.”

With that, she sits down across from me and starts eating, and with that, I’m in the mood to talk.

“By the way, since I’m eating, I should probably pay for my meal.”

“You mean pay for the meal?”

Haru tilted her head as if she didn’t understand the intention of my sudden words.

I took out the USB from my pocket and held it up in front of her.

“This is the Triad’s offshore account, obtained through my recent work for the organization.”

Haru stared at the USB in front of her, then looked back at me so I continued my unfinished story.

“From what I can tell, the money in the account is approximately 1.3 billion credits. I plan to use this money to invest in the International Trade Club and my own club. One billion for my club and 300 million for the International Trade Club, what do you think?”

Hearing my words, Haru puts down the chopsticks he’s been teasing and thinks about it for about 10 seconds.

“I think it’s quite possible, since the Inomiya Group also frequents our club.”

She picks up the USB in front of her and puts it in her back pocket.

“What about the names of the investors? Even if they’re anonymous, investing this much money in one fell swoop is sure to get some attention.”

“If we use the name of the group my mom owns, it should be fine. As for my father……I’ll take care of it.”

Haru nods at my explanation.

“I take it you mean the Hanwol group, then there shouldn’t be any problems. It will probably take about three days for everything to be done, but……is that okay?”

“Enough. I apologize for bringing this up over a meal.”

Haru shakes her head at my words.

“The fact that you’ve invested 300 million credits in the ‘International Trade Club’ is more like a favor than anything else, and we’re only doing what we can to help.”

With a statement like that, I don’t think I’ll have much trouble cleaning up the Triad’s account.

That’s all there is to the situation.

As we ate and chatted about the latest happenings in the club, Haru told me something interesting.

“So, there’s a rumor going around among the sophomores and juniors about you.”

“Rumors about me?”

“Yes. Apparently, it’s unprecedented for a club to be founded in a single day, so it must have caught their attention.”

This was not unexpected. In fact, it was exactly what I was hoping for.

Having a high profile in a club can be seen as an advantage. But the reason Haru is telling me this now is because…….

“Are you worried about me being a target?”

“Yes, because obviously, students who want to check your abilities will target you.”

The thing was, this damn academy was full of people who were desperate to have their strength recognized. So I had to prove it.

I’m not some junior you use to test your strength.

In order to prevent such a situation, I mercilessly wiped out the members of the Fund Investment Club as an example, but……that also happened inside the arena.

Since the stage itself was the entire academy, it was obvious that there would be people who would come after me from unexpected places.

That was probably what Haru was worried about. However…

“Don’t worry. I was going to fix that problem by the end of the day.”

“……You mean by today?”

“Yep. It just so happens that I’m due to receive a club assignment today.”

“Oh, it’s a bust, sure enough, I saw a popular post yesterday that said you were going to start taking requests from the school community, so that’s it.”

By the way, the post I’m referring to is the one I asked Jin-woo to make yesterday evening, and it came up while we were talking about how best to promote the club in our chat room.

“I didn’t check it yesterday because of family stuff, but it made it to the top posts?”

“Haven’t you checked it? Wait…….”

Haru turned on her phone, which she had left on the table, and pulled up a window.

In it, I saw something that shocked me.

[★Popular Posts★]

[Subject: Isn’t it a bit of an insult that the ‘Fund Investment Club’ guys got robbed by a freshman today? LOL]

[No, it’s not, because that freshman is our club president.

Hello, I’m the president of Familia, a new club that just started today.

The reason I’m writing on this board is to promote our club.

Yes, there is a club promotion section.

To be honest, the president just told me to post a promotion and didn’t bother to read it, so I’ll just promote the club however I want.

What we do is, we provide security, we find lost cats, and we find lost money.

I haven’t decided on the club’s fees yet, so I’ll post it as soon as I do.

Then 20,000.

TL note: Adun Toridas is a Nerazim expression, meaning “Adun hide you,” often interpreted as “May Adun give you sanctuary,” from Starcraft.

“What the hell is this ……?”

“It’s a post from yesterday. I thought you knew about it.”

No, of course I knew.

Jin-woo told me that he posted it perfectly, and that it was well-received.

I thought it was because I was too busy with family stuff until the morning…….He actually did this?

I quickly looked at the comment window.
