Why Did I Have to Enroll

Index.
Congratulations on passing the document screening.

As a child, when Ban Yu-won first learned about the existence of the fictional building called the Tower of Babel in the Bible, his respectable grandfather told him it was the tower everyone worked together to build when there was only one language in the world.

“The person who built the Tower of Babel was our ancestor, Won.
Moreover, the Tower of Babel was completed without collapse, and people have the wrong idea.”

That’s what he said.
If he had heard it after he got older, he would have refuted it, saying that it was absurd, but…

“Really, Grandpa? So our ancestor was its owner? Not just any owner, but a building owner!”

“What did your father teach you…ahem! Not just a building owner, Won.
What is important is our ancestors’ ability.”

Ban Yu-won, young and naive at the time, believed his grandfather’s words without a doubt, and his grandfather continued on with a twinkle in his eyes.
He told him that the Tower of Babel was built not because everyone spoke the same language but because their ancestors could enable everyone to communicate.
That the story that God destroyed the tower and scattered mankind was just an ugly delusion of humans who were jealous of their ancestors.
The master of language that interpreted and transformed all languages wielded a powerful force.

He told him they were the descendants of such a great man and to never forget that fact.
However, Ban Yu-won, who was more interested in houses and buildings than these vague abilities, asked.

“Then where did the completed Tower of Babel go? That’s our building, hmph.”

“The Tower of Babel….”

For a fundamentally different reason from his grandson, already tainted by the world at a young age, that grandfather pursued the Tower of Babel.
He replied with a distant glance.

“That’s something that even Grandpa doesn’t know.
One thing is for sure, when we find it, our family will be able to regain all its strength and glory….”

The Tower of Babel, which the young Ban Yu-won was already eagerly looking for, couldn’t be found.
However, the ability they inherited from their ancestors did exist, and the proof was none other than Ban Yu-won himself.

“The light of my life, the spark of my life.
My sin, my soul….”

“Yu-won, what are you reading?”

“I’m reading a book!”

“Haah, why does our son work so hard on reading a…honey, our kid, is reading the original edition!”

Language is inherently memorized through continuous repetition.
The conditions for speaking a language are met only when the ears, the mouth, and the eyes are open.

“This is apple, ringo, pinguo, mela…they’re all apple!”

“Father, our Yu-won seems really strange, doesn’t he?”

“He can read a language he’s never seen before and understands its meaning in seconds, Father!”

However, Ban Yu-won ignored the learning process.
From birth, he could understand and deal with the concept of language with a skill on par with any expert.

“It seems that Yu-won has the blood of our ancestors.”

“Father, it’s not that much; it’s just….”

“Finally, a child who will fulfill the family’s dream has been born! The child who will bring the Tower of Babel back to the family!”

“I’d rather die than suffer that.”

Yes.
Ban Yu-won could understand and handle all languages ​​on Earth.
No, he was even better than that.

“I mean, there is a limit.
How can I interpret these words…?”

[Congratulations on passing the document screening of 「Union」, the best academy in any dimension!]

“…Oh, I can?”

In fact, he could even read crazy moon languages.

 

Lesson 1.
This is your status window – 1

It was February, and the young Ban Yu-won was 20 years old.
He was sitting in front of the computer, waiting to see if he was accepted into college, refreshing the page repeatedly.
Suddenly, his eyes brightened, and a translucent glass window appeared in front of him.

Even Ban Yu-won, who’d mastered all the languages on Earth, had never seen these unfamiliar words before.

[Congratulations on passing the document screening of Union, the best academy in any dimension!]

“It doesn’t go away.”

He was waiting for the announcement of his university acceptance, and suddenly a window with an alien language appeared in front of him.
An alien language he could understand.

Ban Yu-won, unable to convince himself this surreal phenomenon was actually happening, shouted the very first words anyone should shout in an unusual situation like this.

“Status window!”

There wasn’t such a thing, but the alien language text written on the glass window changed.

[Candidates who pass the document screening will take the practical evaluation immediately.
But rest assured! Since the dimension you are currently in is a sub-dimension whose name is unknown, your practical evaluation is also classified as a special sub-dimension.
The difficulty level is very low compared to the normal high-level dimensions, so you can pass it easily!]

“I’m going nuts.
Seriously.”

What was the practical evaluation, and what was the special low-level screening? The glass window didn’t answer, but he could understand the basics thinking about it.

This special admission system is referred to in university entrance exam systems using a selection that differed slightly from the general admission criteria.
Specifically, it was probably to recruit special talents.
So, Ban Yu-won passed the document screening of this academy called Union or something like that because of his special ability, and he could also take a practical evaluation that was easier…

[If you pass the practical evaluation, you will immediately become a pre-admitted student and move to the dormitory of Union Academy, so prepare yourself.
We will start sending it in the next minute.
59, 58…]

“What bullshit is that? I’ve never applied in the first place…!”

When did he write the paperwork, and what was the practical evaluation? He had applied to only S.
University.
I mean, if you’re going to show me such a strange message, give me a status window too!

-Tap

At that moment, the monitor screen was refreshed, and the announcement of successful applicants from S University’s College of Social Sciences (scheduled to major in Political Science and Diplomacy) appeared.
The result: he’d passed! Yes, he must have been so nervous before the announcement that he hallucinated.
Convincing himself of that, what welcomed Ban Yu-won, as he took a deep breath…

[1, 0.
For the practical evaluation location, you’ll be sent to the Blind Goblin Den!]

“Wai-“

He teleported.

“-t….”

When he finished speaking, Ban Yu-won was already somewhere other than Earth.
To paraphrase it with the most appropriate word, he knew…he was in a dungeon.

[The goal of the practical evaluation is simple.
Reach the center of the Blind Goblin Den and destroy the dungeon core! As it is a special low-level archetype, you will pass as long as the dungeon core is destroyed!]

Ban Yu-won wondered as he hid in a dark and damp corner of the cave.

‘It’s neither an illusion nor a hallucination.
I’m sure.’

He had come to admit that he was in a terribly unrealistic situation.
In fact, after he was dragged into the dungeon, he denied reality for about 30 seconds, but then, when he felt a ghostly presence of a monster approaching, it felt like someone had dumped ice water over his head.

Since his own abilities were the product of a miracle, Ban Yu-won’s strength was that he was quick to adapt to surreal situations.
He stopped worrying and moved quietly to find a hiding place.

‘Let me think.’

Why was he in this place? Was there no way he could go home? There was no meaning in thinking about those things right now.
Now, he had to consider how to safely pass this practical evaluation.
Once he left this dungeon, he would have to meet the person in charge and argue with them.
He wondered what he could do against a group that could forcefully teleport him.

‘No, let’s not chicken out.
I will get out of here safely and enter S.
University.
A brilliant college life awaits me…!’

To do that, he needed to find a way out.
That was obvious; the goal was presented to him at the start.
