I Became the Student Council President of Academy City

"Enemies are coming."

It was no surprise.

He had anticipated this.

Focusing on his ability to sense magic, Woo-jin could faintly detect a dense magical presence beyond the secret base.

They were still some distance away.

"Sunbae."

The door opened, and Se-ah entered. Though she tried to appear calm, her urgency was evident.

"Is it the martial law security forces?"

"Yes? Yes... Did you sense the magic from here? Impressive."

Woo-jin stood up from the chair, rolling his shoulders as he did a light stretch.

"I wanted to let you rest for at least a day, but it seems I failed. You should escape now, Sunbae."

He could easily escape with a space jump.

The problem was...

"What about you?"

If the martial law security forces were coming this way, it meant they had figured out that the Dohwa Group was hiding Woo-jin.

Under martial law, the security forces were permitted to use all manner of violent measures in the name of maintaining order.

In other words, it was clear what would happen to Se-ah and the members of the Dohwa Group.

"This magical energy is likely from Spartoi. Your group can't win against them."

"I know. But what can we do? We'll have to escape when we see an opening. We prepared an escape route just in case."

Escape when they see an opening?

Against Spartoi?

"......"

Memories from the original work flashed through Woo-jin's mind.

Se-ah, after becoming the ruler of the Black Market and a major villain, met an untimely death under mysterious circumstances.

Given that the Dohwa Group was also wiped out, it was highly likely she had been assassinated by someone.

Who exactly was responsible for Se-ah's and the Dohwa Group's demise was unclear.
