After My Death, I Became A Genius의 모든 챕터: 챕터 111 - 챕터 120

SAVANNA (VERONICA)Gasps echoed as all eyes were now on me."Race?" Steve's brows furrowed."Hmm... Whoever gets to the dorm and back first wins. If you win, I hand over the watch. If I win, you return my phone."Two and a half minutes... honestly, I was being totally generous.Steve Hart's face darkened. "Are you serious?" His tone was heavy as though a storm would happen anytime."Of course."As I said it, I pulled the watch back out of my pocket and casually strapped it onto my wrist right in front of him.A direct challenge.After a long moment, he finally said, "Fine. You wanna race? Let's race."We stepped forward and stood side by side a few feet apart, both facing the dorm buildings in the distance.The commotion immediately caught the attention of another drill instructor nearby.He looked over from the next training group and called out, "Hart, what the hell's going on over there?"Ignoring the other instructor, Steve looked straight at me. "I'll give you a one-minute head s

VICTORA few days later...A large truck loaded with the latest weaponry entered the military region, led by my black Maybach.The moment the military's top general, Steven, saw me, he became visibly excited. He personally came out to greet me. "Mr. Abraham, what a pleasant surprise.""Long time, General Stuart."He escorted me to his office, even poured coffee himself.As he handed me a cup, he asked again, "Mr. Abraham, you really are giving all of this away for... free?""With great power comes great responsibility." I shot him a polite, yet cold smile."As a citizen of Kingsport, it's only right for me to do what I can for the country's youth, who are apparently the future of the country."Steven looked highly delighted."General, the inventory check is complete. There are ten boxes of Type 95 assault rifles, five boxes of Barrett sniper rifles..."As the soldiers continued reporting the inventory one item at a time, Steven's grin grew wider and wider.After finishing a cup of cof

SAVANNA (VERONICA)Among all the training drills, shooting practice was easily the most anticipated.The moment it was announced we were finally heading to the shooting range, the next morning, the entire group lit up with excitement, except me.'What's there to be so excited about?' I wondered.At the range, the boys were practically buzzing as they lined up, barely able to contain themselves."Quiet down. Boys, line up properly. Everyone else, get ready," Steve had to bark at them.An instructor from the neighboring class walked over."Steve, you want to make this interesting? Let's see which class scores higher.""You've got almost eight more students than I do. Highest individual score wins. The loser buys drinks next break."Steve did not respond right away.The instructor grinned. "What, nervous? Doesn't your class have that ace student? Maybe she'll surprise everyone again."Steve glanced toward me before replying, "No matter how capable she is, she's still an eighteen-year-old

SAVANNA (VERONICA)As soon as my words fell, Steven's smile faded as he stared at me."Veronica Demoor. From the Norvale, Norvale. Born at the only hospital in Norvale. Family of five..."He recited my background as if he had memorized it all.A sharp irritation flickered through me, and my gaze turned colder."General Stuart." My voice turned even icier. "You investigated me?""An eighteen-year-old girl beat Steve Hart, a trained special forces soldier in a race," Steven flashed that same curt smile."You broke the military base's 150-meter obstacle course record. And today you made a shooting score that even professional snipers would struggle to replicate. Of course we're going to be suspicious."I crossed my arms, holding his stare. A slow smirk twitched the corner of my lips."What exactly are you suspecting, General? That I'm some foreign spy?"Steven gave a short laugh. "You've got guts saying something like that, girl""So? Did you find anything?""We'll continue investigating

SAVANNA (VERONICA)The direct question snapped my eyes back at the impatient general.My brow arched slightly. "Dating?"I glanced at Victor's expressionless face before turning back toward Steven. "Why would you think that?"Steven pointed directly at Victor."He literally said over the phone that you're from his family. Other than being his woman, what else could that possibly mean?""Ahem..." Victor cleared his throat beside me.His family? The idea crossed my mind, and surprisingly, I did not feel burdened. Not a bad idea.My lips almost twitched to a smirk, but I suppressed it."There are plenty of possibilities," Instead, I replied calmly. "Friends. Neighbors. Besides..." I looked at Victor indifferently. "I'm not interested in age-gap relationships."I said it. Considering my situation I had no other choice but to decline him and I would rather do it rudely than giving him any hint.If he stepped away after this, I would not turn to him again. Because that would probably be the
