This might be a four-character idiom that describes the situation I’m in very well.

The situation keeps getting worse.

Shin Jia thinks I’m an elf.

Ha Si-yeon thinks I’m an angel.

Yoo Hwa thinks I’m hiding my power, although her misunderstanding is a bit less than those two.

Yoo Hwa’s misunderstanding is partly intentional, so I’ll let it go.

But Shin Jia and Ha Si-yeon’s cases were completely beyond my control.

I couldn’t clear up their misunderstandings even if I wanted to.

To clear up their misunderstandings, I had to reveal my secret that ‘I don’t have a status window’.

That’s why I decided not to clear up their misunderstandings.

Their delusions didn’t harm me anyway.

“…I see.”

But Pi Jin Ho’s misunderstanding was a bit different from the three of them.

His misunderstanding was that I own [Master of Weapons], something that I could clear up without having to reveal that I don’t have a status window.

If I didn’t clear up the misunderstanding, it could have a negative impact on my future.

That’s why I cleared up Pi Jin Ho’s misunderstanding.

“That day. The name of the necklace you held in your hand was Weapon of Extremes.”

But the situation has changed now.

“The only restriction for wearing it is to have the Master of Weapons trait.”

Was it a mistake, or did I fall into a trap?

Or did I underestimate Pi Jin Ho?

“It’s clear that you have the Master of Weapons trait.”

There are three main types of item user restrictions in this world.

Ability, race, and trait.

Among them, there were some traits that ignored the ability restriction.

But there was never a trait that ignored the race and trait restrictions themselves in history.

That’s why Shin Jia was convinced that I was an elf without any doubt.

That was the common sense of this world.

“I was going to watch quietly for a while. I thought I would just help you train moderately, build trust gradually, and then talk to you again. That’s what I thought. But if the Master of Weapons starts to awaken fully, it’s different. I can’t just sit and watch.”

It was the same when I held the Weapon of Extremes in my hand this time.

The moment I held that necklace in my hand, I became the owner of [Master of Weapons].

And with the acquisition of the Flame of Engraving on top of that, the situation became more complicated.

The Master of Weapons opens up the owner’s magic power as soon as it awakens fully.

The blood vessels that were blocked by the penalty of [Master of Weapons] that had no magic power itself are completely opened.

And the Flame of Engraving flowed through my whole body and burned away the impurities in my blood vessels. Naturally, a path for magic to move was formed.

Seeing those clean blood vessels, Pi Jin Ho thought.

‘Oh. The awakening has begun.’

There is no way to quench this misunderstanding. No matter what excuses I make, Pi Jin Ho will ignore them.

In the end, it became a similar situation to Shin Jia and Ha Si-yeon’s cases.

There was no way to clear up Pi Jin Ho’s misunderstanding unless I revealed all my secrets that I don’t have a status window.

“Please trust me. Let me be your pacemaker.”

Even if I revealed all my secrets, he might not believe me.

Pi Jin Ho was excited by the appearance of a new weapon master who could follow his wife’s footsteps. No, a newcomer who could surpass her.

He wouldn’t listen to any excuses I made in that state.

“Please. Let me be your pacemaker.”

Pi Jin Ho bowed his head.

In the end, there was only one way for me to choose.

“Yes. You’re right, instructor. I have the Master of Weapons trait.”

Let it be what it will be.

What difference does it make if one more misunderstanding is added to this situation?

Since it came to this, let’s just accept Pi Jin Ho instructor’s intense training.

“Thank you for trusting me.”

Pi Jin Ho grabbed my shoulder. With a force that was neither weak nor strong.

“I’ll definitely repay that trust.”

His steel-like eyes stared straight into mine.

“Then let’s go back to the training room before it gets too late and start the morning training.”

Pi Jin Ho turned his body around.

“From tomorrow on, come to my personal training room instead of the public one. I’ll let you know the location later.”

The side face of Pi Jin Ho that peeked over his shoulder was filled with ecstasy.

“Yes. I understand.”

That’s how I became Pi Jin Ho instructor’s official disciple.

In a splendid room where classical music is playing, a man is leaning back in a chair, lost in thought.

He has a cold gaze, neat hair, and clothes. His expression is eroded by deep anger.

“I’m sorry.”

A woman is kneeling at his feet, bowing her head. Cold sweat runs down her body, and her breathing is rough.

“One minute and 49 seconds.”

The man slowly opens his eyes and looks down at the woman on his feet.

“Your greed delayed my plan by one minute and 49 seconds.”

A careless look, as if looking at an ant on the street.

“Please, please! Just once… Please forgive me just once!”

The woman bowed her upper body while kneeling.

“Forgiveness. Hm. Forgiveness.”

The man’s eyes became colder.

“You made my perfect plan go up in smoke. Could you forgive that?”

“No, no! It didn’t go up in smoke! We achieved our goal! The plan was just slightly delayed, not up in smoke······!”

But the woman’s words didn’t continue to the end.

Swoosh-!

“My plan is a score. You are all notes on the score. You have an obligation to move perfectly under my direction.”

The woman’s head was already flying in the sky.

“I don’t forgive dissonance. Never.”

The man’s hand was covered with the woman’s blood.

“Tsk. Notes should just move as I command.”

The man licked his tongue and shook off the blood on his hand.

“Is anyone outside?”

“Yes.”

Someone came into the room.

“Clean it up.”

“Yes, sir.”

With that, the man turned his attention back to the calm melody of classical music.

“Have you decided who will infiltrate the Korean Superhuman Academy?”

“Yes. Allen decided to do it himself.”

“Oh. The Hermit, huh.”

The recluse Hermit.

He finally decided to move.

“The boss made a big decision.”

The man smiled as if he was satisfied. He could trust the recluse.

“I feel more relieved now.”

The man’s expression became peaceful.

His subordinate sighed with relief.

“Then I’ll leave now.”

“Okay.”

The subordinate bowed his head and muttered.

“El Perze Enen Dorma.”

The man leaned back in his chair and waved his hand casually.

“El Perze Enen Dorma.”

All the classes on Monday were over.

“Seo-yul! Let’s have dinner together!”

Ha Si-yeon came up to me, waving her hand. I had something to talk to her about, so it was perfect.

“I have a prior appointment.”

I have an appointment with Pi Jin Ho instructor.

“A prior appointment?”

“Yeah.”

I whispered softly in Ha Si-yeon’s ear.

“I think the training might take a long time, so it might be hard to help you today.”

“Okay. It’s okay. I’ll just do some physical training today.”

“I’m sorry.”

“It’s okay. See you tomorrow.”

With that, Ha Si-yeon left the classroom.

Kim Chul-jin and Choi Ji-hoon were waiting outside the classroom door.

“What did you talk about?”

“Huh? Just asking me to have dinner together.”

Kim Chul-jin and Ha Si-yeon left the classroom first.

“…”

Choi Ji-hoon stared at me for about three seconds and then turned his body around.

He seems to dislike me very much.

Well, I don’t like him either, so I don’t care.

I chuckled and got up from my seat. As I moved my steps outside the classroom, I checked the text message from Pi Jin Ho again.

[Come here. I have something to give you.]

There was a map attached to the text message.

This must be the personal training room that Pi Jin Ho mentioned this morning.

I headed for the place where the map pointed.

“It looks like it’s over there.”

It took about 10 minutes to walk.

I arrived at the building that looked like the destination. It looked very sophisticated. It looked more like a research lab than a training room.

“You’re here.”

The instructor was waiting for me in front of the building.

“Come in. The stuff is inside.”

“Yes.”

I followed the instructor into the building.

The interior of the building was also very sophisticated. There were a lot of amazing-looking state-of-the-art devices.

Is it because it’s an instructor-only training room?

It’s very different from the student training room.

“Here.”

The instructor stopped in front of a room with No.4 written on it.

“From now on, you’ll train here, so remember the location well.”

“Yes. I understand.”

This must be the training room assigned to the instructor.

The instructor put his palm on the authentication system next to the door.

[You have been authenticated.]

Squeak-

The door slowly opened, and the inside of the room came into view.

“Wow.”

I couldn’t help but exclaim.

It felt like a spaceship in a sci-fi movie.

“First of all, I need to register your biometric code in the access data. Put your hand here and stand still.”

“Oh, yes.”

I put my palm on the place where the instructor pointed.

[Registering biometric code. 10%… 19%…]

[100%]

“That’s it. You can take it off.”

It was quick.

“You can use this place whenever you need it from now on. I’ll tell you how to use this room later.”

“Huh? Really?”

I can use this facility as I please?

“Yes. Anytime, 24 hours a day.”

“Wow…”

That’s awesome.

How much would it cost to rent this kind of facility privately?

I can’t even imagine.

“I’m glad you like it.”

Maybe it was because I looked too much like a country bumpkin.

The instructor looked at me kindly with a gentle smile.

I felt awkward and scratched the back of my head.

“Take this. It’s the first gift from a teacher to a disciple.”

The instructor handed me a small box. This also looked very sci-fi. What’s in here?

“Thank you.”

I grabbed the box eagerly.

But how do I open this?

“Open it. Press that button in the middle and it will open.”

“Oh.”

I pressed the button on the box.

Then the box started to transform like some kind of transformer.

No, rather than transforming, it’s more accurate to say that it’s unsealing.

“Is this by any chance…”

There was a necklace in the fully opened box.

“Yes.”

A necklace that looked exactly like the one worn by the instructor.

“Weapon of Extremes. My wife’s legacy, and a necklace that symbolizes weapon masters. It’s yours now.”

He laughed as he saw me confused.

“Wear it. It will surely be a great help to you. Try it on.”

“But…”

“You don’t have to take it too heavily because it’s a legacy. Just think of it as finding its owner.”

I’m sorry because I’m not its owner.

I don’t have the Master of Weapons trait.

“Hurry up.”

It wasn’t an atmosphere where I could refuse.

“Yes. Thank you very much.”

I smiled awkwardly and grabbed the necklace. Then I put it around my neck.

I felt something peaceful in my heart.

Is it the effect of the necklace?

“It suits you well.”

The instructor smiled with satisfaction.

“Now, try holding this spear.”

He took out two spears from the weapon rack and handed me one.

“A spear?”

All of a sudden?

I examined the spear that the instructor handed me.

“Is this your first time with a spear?”

“Yes. I’ve never held one before.”

“I see.”

I’ve never held a spear before in my life.

But it feels familiar in my hand.

That’s when it happened.

“Try blocking it.”

“What?”

Whoosh!

Suddenly, the instructor thrust his spear at me.

It was abrupt.

“!”

But what was more abrupt was my body’s movement.

My hand gripped the spear handle very naturally. And moved it.

As if water flows from top to bottom as if it was natural.

Clang! Ting!

“…What?”

And the next moment.

I was deflecting Pi Jin Ho instructor’s thrust.

“Hahaha! I didn’t expect you to react right away!”

Suddenly, Pi Jin Ho instructor burst into laughter.

“My wife would have been jealous if she saw this scene.”

The instructor looked happy as he pointed to my spear.

I slowly turned my eyes to where his finger was pointing.

“I’ve never seen a fire attribute strong energy like that either.”

“…”

My spear was wrapped in red magic power.

That wasn’t all.

“…What is this.”

The necklace on my chest, ‘Weapon of Extremes’, was also shining very red.
