Ranked 1st in School Hides Her Regression
Episode 73
A cold silence fell over the room.
The parents, desperate to defend their child, and the vice principal, who’d been fuming moments before, all fell silent, their eyes fixed on the television screen.
In the midst of their shock.
Jung Eun-seong walked through the wide-open front door.
He strode forward, literally shoved the vice principal out of his way, pocketed the USB, and then.
Threw a punch at Park Su-hwan.
Without the slightest hesitation.
Crack!
An ominous sound rang out, but Jung Eun-seong didn’t stop.
“What the—”
What the hell are you doing, you so-called celebrity!
It was the moment Seo Jae-gyeom let go of Park Su-hwan’s arm and rushed forward to stop Jung Eun-seong.
“Just go to hell and stay there! Get lost!”
Bang Eun-ji, who’d somehow made it into our classroom, came running and smashed the back of Jang Ji-won’s husband’s head with the edge of her cellphone.
That was the start of it all.
“Get out!”
“You crazy bastards!”
As if something had exploded, the girls rushed toward the desk. They grabbed whatever they could and hurled themselves at Park Su-hwan’s group. Fists flew, collars were seized and shaken, elbows struck……
The girls from the other class who’d been watching rushed into the classroom.
Eight or nine girls descended on each boy. They dragged Park Su-hwan and Do Ha-jun into the hallway, hitting and trampling them. Bang! Desks slid, chairs toppled.
“Grab him!”
“Stomp!”
“Get back!”
Kyung Se-in, who normally got flustered whenever she saw Jung Eun-seong, had eyes ablaze as she shoved him forward.
She yanked the keyboard from the computer desk and brought it down on Park Su-hwan’s head—thwack, thwack. Beside her, Ye Su-a grabbed Do Ha-jun’s collar as he tried to escape. Buttons scattered everywhere.
As Jung Eun-seong was driven back past me, I snatched the USB from his hand.
“Everyone, stop! Enough! Calm down!”
“Ha-jun! Won’t someone help our son!”
“You’ve all lost your minds!”
The vice principal shrieked and stamped his feet, but there was no stopping my friends now that they’d gone feral.
Of course they’d lost their minds.
Do I look like I haven’t lost mine right now?
Girls get scary when they get mad once—surely you understand, teacher.
I turned to look at Jung Eun-seong and Seo Jae-gyeom, who’d grown strangely quiet, and shrugged.
“I’m going to join in over there. You two stay down.”
Don’t get mixed up in the girls’ business.
“I’m the one who hit him.”
“No, I’m the one who hit him.”
“No, it was me.”
The girls’ rampage, which didn’t stop even when lunch ended, finally ceased when Woo Do-yeon—whose expression had remained calm throughout—hurled a fallen chair.
‘All eight of them got pummeled without landing a single blow.’
In a one-on-one fight, the boys would’ve been stronger than the girls, but there’s no defense against a mob.
With all the girls united in purpose, it was impossible to measure who hit whom and how much.
Especially now, when they were all claiming to be the one who started it.
“I started it first, I’m telling you?”
“No, I started it first. I’m the ringleader.”
“I hit him the most.”
Kim Ga-eun raked her tangled hair with her fingers and smirked.
“If you want to punish someone, go ahead. But you’d have to discipline every second-year girl in this school.”
“That’s right! We’re all going to take the same punishment!”
“Expel us all and run the second year as a boys’ school!”
“Why would you expel us? The ones who did wrong should be expelled!”
Yang Yeon-hee’s mother, her face flushed crimson, shouted back.
That’s right. Do Ha-jun isn’t the only one with a mother here. Our girls have mothers too.
Once the kids’ fight ended, it was the parents’ turn to go at it.
“I failed in raising my child, and I’ll accept whatever disciplinary measures the school decides……”
There were those like Jang Ji-won’s mother-in-law, who admitted fault honestly and apologized.
“But violence is never acceptable! No matter how much the other person got on your nerves, the moment you resort to violence, the one who struck is automatically in the wrong!”
There were still people like Do Ha-jun’s mother who hadn’t come to their senses.
“Look at what they did to my son! No matter what, is it right to hit people? The kids who hit him like that aren’t normal either!”
But even Do Ha-jun’s mother.
“Are you trying something right now? Then I’ll tip off the media about that KakaoTalk group chat with the boys.”
“I’ll make sure that content goes straight into your son’s Student Records! What’s the point of going to university? What’s the point of studying! He’ll just sexually harass the girls in his major anyway!”
Seeing his son in an obvious losing position, he shut his mouth.
Park Su-hwan’s father had been wondering where the plot twist was.
☆High School★ — he’d wandered off searching for the smoking area, then shuffled back in late. When he heard what was going on.
“You!”
He beat his own son like a beast in the middle of the classroom. The kid whose face was already purple from the hits.
“You bastard!”
“Father, please calm down—!”
Park Su-hwan was beaten like a dog. With everyone watching.
For someone who loved playing it cool, it was the ultimate humiliation.
Seo Jae-gyeom’s mother, watching the spectacle with an expression of disgust, lifted her chin and delivered her verdict.
“Only the boys should be punished.”
“Jae-gyeom’s mother! How can you say that when you’re raising a son yourself—!”
“What do you mean? My son doesn’t do sordid things like that.”
In the end, the decision came down to disciplinary action for only eight boys—the girls were excluded entirely.
The scheduled parent-teacher conference transformed into interviews about this incident.
“Pathetic.”
I mocked Park Su-hwan, who stood outside the Teachers’ Office sniffling and sobbing.
I’d been heading down to the School Infirmary when I spotted him at the office entrance, so I detoured for a moment to mess with him.
From inside, Do Ha-jun’s mother was crying and begging them to just see her once, then screaming she’d press charges. Her husband was beside her, fuming, “Stop, you’re embarrassing yourself!”
Park Su-hwan’s father? He’d finished beating his son and went off to smoke.
Park Su-hwan glared at me as I smirked.
“Don’t get cocky, Kang Da-hye. Just because Jung Eun-seong and Seo Jae-gyeom are on your side doesn’t make you special.”
“What are you talking about? Are they a chamber of commerce? Do they hand out special certificates?”
If I was special, it was only because I’d been lucky enough to Regress.
If those two were special, it was only because they’d gotten tangled up with me—a Regressor.
Sometimes I felt like I was the protagonist of a Regression story!
I teased Park Su-hwan, whose expression showed he wanted to kill me but didn’t dare.
“Right. What did you say before? That you won’t even talk to me unless I’m on the level of Seo Jae-gyeom or Jung Eun-seong?”
‘No way. Kang Da-hye isn’t quite that level. Should I offer her money to get her to talk to me?’
Now that I thought about it, he’d been treating me like a woman who’d only talk for money since back then.
“Don’t get it wrong. I don’t talk to you guys because my pride’s too high—it’s because I’m afraid your cheap sensibility might rub off on me. I hate watching you watch those pathetic videos in class, and I hate that you don’t even realize how embarrassing it is, and I hate your dull intellect.”
It’s not my problem. It’s yours.
“If you don’t fix that personality, no girl will want to talk to you from now on.”
I tapped my cellphone and showed him the girls’ KakaoTalk group chat.
Yeah, the one you guys spy on all the time through Jang Ji-won.

"See? The girls don't care about you at all."
When you got beaten down, they didn't even mention you—just talked about Jung Eun-seong.
"You know that too, which is why you're stirring things up with the girls like this. Because otherwise there's no way you'd ever have anything to do with them."
"That pathetic orphan…."
"Huh?"
He's lost his mind.
I pocketed my cellphone and clicked my tongue.
"Must be nice. Having parents who beat you like a dog in front of your friends."
……
Now that I think about it, that pisses me off.
When Seo Jae-gyeom hit him, not a peep. But the moment Jung Eun-seong's name comes up, he's spouting off about orphans? Is he that easy on Jung Eun-seong?
"Don't disrespect Jung Eun-seong. He's got ten million sister-fans behind him!"
I kicked Park Su-hwan's shin when his guard was down.
"Ugh!"
He flew backward.
Straight toward the School Infirmary where Jung Eun-seong was.
