Chapter 14
no
Just saying “I\'m confused” can\'t fully express this feeling.
Seoyoon repeated her thoughts.
My back hurts. It feels like a bone pain will pop out.
Could it be that the bone was torn?
Even so, Seoyoon couldn\'t find words to fully express her feelings.
In the end, Seoyoon had no choice but to be satisfied with ‘it seems like chestnuts are rolling around in my head\'.
Then, Seoyoon remembered how things had come to this point.
And that was because of one reason and two details derived from it.
The first reason was none other than a man named Seojun.
In fact, yesterday Seoyoon had investigated Seojun while issuing Seojun\'s temporary license.
If it was a background investigation, it could be called a background investigation, but Seoyoon couldn\'t help but wonder what kind of person Seojun was.
But I couldn\'t figure out anything. I\'d say there\'s nothing to pinpoint.
Just that he had a lot of debt and had a major surgery a while ago?
“Crazy...!”
Whiik!
Aww!
But that wasn\'t enough reason to beat the kobold like this.
It\'s also like a crude iron bar that is often seen on construction boards.
yes let\'s say it can be
Seoyoon thought about what happened earlier.
The kobold at the time when it was abruptly attacking Seo-joon from behind. It was an exquisite surprise that Seoyoon could only notice right before, as if he had been aiming for it from the beginning.
And Seo-joon was obviously not aware of that.
A monster is a monster, even though it is only a 2-star kobold.
The human body is infinitely fragile, so even the swordsman in the world can get hurt if attacked properly in a defenseless state.
Of course, it is limited to when the attack hits properly.
And Seojun was just a student, not a swordsman.
“danger...!”
So Seoyoon shouted and pulled out her sword.
Whiik!
No, I took it out and listened.
Seo-joon avoided the attack of the kobold, which was naturally ambush.
as if you knew To be precise, Seo-jun\'s appearance seemed to react as soon as he saw it.
Then, he smashed the kobold that had attacked him with an iron bar and said,
“It\'s climbing as expected.”
That was what it meant.
“No, what...”
From this point on, Seoyoon\'s head started to get a bit confused.
It was because I wondered if Seoyoon would be able to follow the movements Seojun just showed.
“I’ll speed it up a little bit.”
However, Seo-jun started to slaughter the kobolds, whether or not he knew what Seo-yoon was thinking.
massacre.
Whik Puck.
“Sizzling...!”
puck. purpuck.
“Crazy!”
“Chii Ii!!”
purbubuck.
Yes, that was a massacre.
Seo-jun\'s actions could no longer be defined as a raid.
So it really didn\'t take long for Seo-joon to clean up the Kobold Dungeon.
Could it be that the big surgery was cyborg surgery?
“I caught them all, but they don’t go up as much as I thought…”
And what the hell is going up when you’ve been climbing since a while ago?
Seoyoon endured it and finally had no choice but to open her mouth.
“What is it?”
“What are you talking about?”
Then, Seo-jun tilted his head and asked again.
Seoyoon said with an absurd expression.
“Didn’t you say you were doing a raid for the first time?”
“That’s right.”
“But how…”
“Ah! Come to think of it, this is not the first time.”
Then it is.
Seoyoon nodded inwardly...
“I tried catching a manticore yesterday.”
this crazy
Seoyoon felt like she was going out of the country.
Of course, kobolds were only 2-star monsters.
However, Seojun was not a professional hunter, but just a student.
A student who faced a monster for the first time without receiving proper education.
It was normal for most of the students who raided for the first time to be lazy, get hit here and there, and have worse instructors come forward.
However, rather than being foolish, Seo-joon slaughtered the kobolds like a skilled hunter who had been rolling for 10 years.
‘I think I heard my grandfather say this when I was young.\'
Even up to this point, Seoyoon hadn\'t had chestnuts rolling around in her head.
The reason Seoyoon ultimately felt that way was because of the two details that unfolded afterwards.
And the details first.
flash
“What are you doing?”
“Move the corpse.”
Seojun suddenly lifted the kobold corpse and placed it on his shoulder.
One, two, three... After putting on as many as five carcasses, Seo-joon nodded in satisfaction.
“Then why are you moving it?”
“So, are you leaving?”
Seeing Seo-jun reply as if he were saying something obvious, Seo-yoon lost his senses for a moment.
“No, why is Seojun moving it? You can call a carrier.”
“Why pay high fees when you can do it yourself? You should save what you can. Oh, do you have a separate exclusive contract with a transport company?”
At the Hunter Academy, which could issue temporary licenses, students often went to raid.
Of course, it was cumbersome to call a carrier every time, so it was customary to entrust the job through an exclusive contract.
“No, it\'s not like that...”
However, there was no company that would sign a contract with an academy without students.
“Good.”
Seojun nodded in satisfaction once again.
And it was only then that Seo-yoon was able to recognize that Seo-jun had rented a truck before coming here.
“You really meant this from the beginning?”
“Isn’t that okay?”
“...”
Seoyoon had no choice but to think seriously about how to answer this.
“Hmm, but moving it alone and dismantling it is tight.”
Suddenly, Seo-jun turned his head and looked at Seo-yoon.
And as if everything went well, he approached Seoyoon.
“If you have nothing to do, let’s move this together.”
chuck.
“Ugh!”
Seoyoon groaned at the sudden feeling of weight.
The average weight of a kobold is about 50 kg.
It wasn\'t that heavy for Seoyoon, a B-class hunter.
However, in order to carry 5 animals like Seo-jun did, he had to borrow some amount of mana power.
“Let’s move quickly.”
However, Seo-joon moved on casually.
No, rather take a step.
“one!”
Squat!
take another step
“two!”
Squat!
Even so, Seo-joon\'s appearance quickly moves away.
“What the hell are you doing...”
In Seoyoon’s head, chestnut berries began to roll around.
Seoyoon\'s worries did not end there.
The second detail of chestnut clusters rolling around in Seoyoon\'s head.
That happened at Dream Academy, where they returned after disposing of the corpse after the raid.
Seo-jun said he would like to use the training center at Dream Academy.
Ugh...
But training is a piece of shit. Seo-joon was just staring at his smartphone.
“What are you doing?”
Seoyoon asked while looking at Seojun blankly at his smartphone.
Of course it could.
There could be various reasons, such as being blank or thinking for a while.
Because Seoyoon herself had such experiences often.
“Do you know how many hours you spend on your smartphone right now?”
But if the time exceeds 4 hours, maybe that\'s a problem.
That too is a very big problem.
At Seoyoon\'s words, Seojun suddenly came to his senses as if waking up from his thoughts.
And he replied, scratching the back of his head.
“Ah, I was listening to the lecture.”
“A lecture?”
Seoyoon approached Seojun and looked at the smartphone Seojun had been staring at for four hours.
However, nothing could be seen in Seoyoon\'s eyes.
“What lecture are you talking about?”
To be precise, it was just a black screen as if the power had not been turned on.
“uh? Can\'t you see this?”
“If you’re referring to the black screen reflected on your smartphone, you can see it.”
“Uh...”
Seoyoon was just telling the truth, but somehow Seojun seemed very surprised.
Even so, Seo-jun did not stop staring blankly at his smartphone.
Seoyoon was curious about what he was doing and watched Seojun\'s actions until the end.
Seo-jun spends several hours staring at the black screen of his smartphone.
In fact, Seo-joon was just quietly listening to the lecture.
No, now that I know that the transcendentalist lecture is not visible to Seoyoon.
It was very comfortable to listen to the lecture without paying attention.
[Actually, speaking of words, Hercules said that I died because of an arrow shot by a bastard. The arrows were coated with hydra poison. It was so painful that I almost searched... No, I did.]
[Anyway, if you\'re going to get hydra poisoned later, be sure to avoid it. keuhmm Anyway, if you want to finish the class again...]
“Avoid Hydra poison unconditionally... Memo.”
[Once, I went to pick up my friend\'s breasts and fell into a trap. At that time, songs from the country of Chu can be heard from everywhere, and how the costumes are turned upside down!]
[But who am I! Rushing alone without saying a word! like this! like this! It\'s all swept away! Of course, I lost because there were too many. ha ha ha ha! It\'s all memories now, but they\'re memories!]
“What did you just do? Are you doing this?”
[Leave me. So experience the silence...]
“If you leave me, you will see the world...”
Seo-jun listens to the lecture more diligently than anyone else and follows it.
However, in Seoyoon\'s eyes, all these things.
‘As expected, he was a madman...\'
He just looked like a madman.
And Seoyoon became nervous at the same time.
It was because he hadn\'t told Seo-jun that his grandfather, Geomseong, would come.
Now, Seoyoon was thoroughly hiding it, so the swordsman did not know of Seojun\'s existence.
But I couldn\'t hide it forever.
It wasn\'t long before Geomsung learned of Seo-jun\'s existence, and it was clear that he would come to test Seo-jun.
And until now, there were no pro hunters let alone students who had endured the pressure of the Sword Saint.
In fact, it was just a test, nothing more than a threat to leave the academy.
“hot!”
Seo-joon suddenly jumps up from his seat.
“shit! It\'s past 12 o\'clock! I haven’t finished the lecture yet!”
“...”
What kind of Cinderella are you?
Haha, Seoyoon unknowingly let out a deep sigh.
‘Did I really make a good choice...\'
Seoyoon felt as if chestnuts were rolling around in her head.
late morning.
Returning home, Seo-joon lay down on the bed and manipulated his smartphone to check his bank account.
[Account balance: 9510000 ?]
Seo-joon rubbed his eyes, wondering if he had seen it wrong.
The account balance remains unchanged.
“and... Is this money earned in one day?”
Seo-joon was proud, but he felt somewhat discouraged.
The profit from one kobold corpse was about 300,000 won.
The number of kobolds Seo-joon caught in the dungeon was about 30, and after deducting various taxes and auction fees, about 7 million won was put into Seo-joon\'s hands.
A 2-star dungeon raid was just one-time money earned.
Of course, the amount was possible because Seo-joon was on his own and there was no fee from the carrier.
Of course, it cannot be denied that a lot of time and effort went into it.
“Should I rather propose to Mr. Mancheol that we work together?”
It was a sudden thought, but it was a pretty good idea.
If it was Mancheol, he could trust him, and more than anything, Seojun didn\'t want to cut ties with Mancheol.
I thought maybe it wouldn\'t be bad for Mancheol to set up a transport company.
“I will try to contact you when the time is right.”
Seojun looked at his account balance once again.
Compared to the time when I worked all day and received 200,000 won per day, my income was incomparable.
“Still, 100 million isn’t even close.”
However, the amount was not enough to purchase the Longinus spear sold at the Transcendent Academy.
Seo-joon was able to realize how much money 100 million is.
If 100 million is like that, Seo-joon doesn\'t even know when he will be able to listen to Jecheon Dae-seong\'s lecture, which costs 27 billion.
‘But if you move forward like this, one day...\'
Seo-joon once again burned his will.
At the same time, Seo-jun calmly repeated what had happened today.
Certainly, as the raid progressed, the progress rate of the lecture increased.
And as the progress of the lecture increased, Seo-joon\'s skills also increased.
“But it didn\'t go up like I thought.\'
The increase of 0.6% and 0.4% when I first caught 2 kobolds started to decrease rapidly as I continued to raid.
When I caught the last kobold, I didn\'t climb at all.
So, in this raid, I ended up raising the lectures of Chiron and Xiang Yu by 4% each.
It didn\'t seem like the progress rate of the lecture was going up simply because they were doing raids.
Literally, Reid seemed to be ‘applying\' what he learned in the lecture. It seemed that if there was no learning, it would not go up.
‘Maybe the experience point has also grown.\'
Seo-joon laughed at how ridiculous it was to keep comparing it to a game.
In any case, there was no change in the fact that the lectures had to be continued.
And there were three lectures that Seojun was currently listening to.
[Required lecture for introductory combat transcendentalists. (Instructor: Keiron)]
[Physical is a piece of paper the moment your mental collapses. (Instructor: Shakyamuni)]
[Reverse divergence is like this. (Instructor: Hang Woo)]
And the skills that could be obtained by taking this course were as follows.
< Hwangol Metamorphosis [A] >
< Unmoving Heart [SSS] >
< Reverse Divergence Spear Art [A] >
“It would be difficult to hear anything more than this.”
Seo-joon wanted to take all the lectures in the free pass.
However, there were still cases where I could not listen to the lecture for more than 24 hours.
If you gain a little more knowledge, you can take more lectures, but I thought 3 was the limit for now.
‘Is there any way to increase the progress of the lecture more quickly?\'
Seo-joon fell asleep while thinking about this and that.
next day.
Seojun woke up early in the morning and headed to Dream Academy.
Originally, I was going to do a raid, but today all the dungeons were closed.
To be precise, among the dungeons that could be accessed with a temporary license, all the dungeons that Seo-joon could go to were closed.
An era where you and I can become awakened.
There were so many dungeons created per day, but there were so many students and pro hunters spread across the country.
However, Seojun was not very sad.
It was because I had to listen to the lecture to raise the progress rate of the lecture anyway.
So today, with the idea of doing his daily assignments and attending lectures, Seo-jun headed to the Dream Academy.
And the reason why I went to Dream Academy was because it was convenient because there was a separate training room.
“one! two! three!”
Seo-jun, who was doing daily assignments at Dream Academy.
“Hey...Seojun?”
Seo-yoon called Seo-jun carefully.
A look that seems to have something to say.
“What are you doing?”
“That...”
Seoyoon seemed to hesitate for a moment, then slowly opened her mouth.
“Have you ever heard of an academy competition?”
