Transcendent Genius Trainer Episode 104

Director’s Office of the Awakened Management Bureau.

“Hmmmm.”

The Director had originally planned to take about a week’s vacation after returning home.

But in this situation, a vacation was a luxury.

Kang Yu-jun.

He needed to talk with that trainer as soon as possible.

“The Deputy Director has handled most of the work during this time.”

Fortunately, there wasn’t much work that the Director needed to handle immediately.

Since he had left the acting director position to someone, Deputy Director So Gang-cheol had handled all the work except for important matters that required the Director’s decision.

“Everything I need to decide is all connected to Trainer Kang Yu-jun.”

So it could be said that once he talked with Kang Yu-jun, virtually all the work would be handled.

“What’s the current evaluation of Trainer Kang Yu-jun? Is the public opinion on Hunternet okay?”

Awakened who suddenly emerged into the spotlight like this usually didn’t receive good evaluations.

Even if their abilities were decent, if there were problems with their character or attitude, it was difficult to use them in important positions.

That’s why Hunternet’s evaluation was also an important factor in many ways.

Hunternet, the community for Awakened, was used by virtually every Awakened person.

So the Director also often browsed Hunternet.

Since it was a place where anonymity was maintained, there were many raw opinions and many posts that were helpful to the Management Bureau.

“Currently on Hunternet, there’s a meme called ‘Kang Yu-jun possessing nation.'”

“Kang Yu-jun possessing nation, isn’t that quite a compliment?”

“Yes, that’s right. Hunternet is a really cold community, so this level can be considered high praise.”

Director Lee Ji-tae couldn’t help but chuckle at those words.

Kang Yu-jun possessing nation.

“Isn’t that a phrase that goes around like a meme for countries that possess SSS-rank Awakened?”

Korea didn’t have any SSS-rank Awakened.

All countries that could be called superpowers had them, but only Korea lacked Awakened of that rank.

Of course, it wasn’t hopeless.

Among the Awakened who had reached SS-rank, there were some with the potential to reach SSS-rank.

“Especially compared to overseas, don’t we have areas where we’re lacking? So originally it was used as a negative meme, but regarding this Trainer Kang Yu-jun matter specifically, it’s not being used negatively.”

That’s why domestically, the term “possessing nation” was often used negatively.

In the sense of self-deprecation and disparagement of falling competitiveness.

But this time it wasn’t disparagement, it was genuine praise.

“Well, I was feeling bitter about returning without any harvest, but who knew such a joyful thing would happen.”

Moreover, there was an even more joyful matter.

“To think our Suyeon’s problem has been solved!”

It had been the biggest headache and worry.

His daughter Suyeon clearly had tremendous potential, but the problem of how to draw out that tremendous potential had been solved!

“I can’t just meet him casually.”

Deputy Director So Gang-cheol had already provided support including a house.

Then for the future, he needed to prepare an even greater reward.

“Would the prize money be sufficient?”

“Yes, he’s made large-sum deals with various guilds, so money shouldn’t be lacking.”

“That’s right. It would be better to give something more necessary instead.”

As a father, he was a benefactor to be grateful for, but as the Director of the Management Bureau, he was absolutely a talent that couldn’t be let go.

“Then…”

Prize money, artifacts, and.

“Good potions should do. Looking at what’s reported here, it seems he’s become an Awakened.”

He had been discharged for failing to awaken, but it seemed he had awakened after the discharge.

Since he was active as a trainer, there was no definite information about his awakening ability, but it seemed to be an ability related to training.

In that case, potions would be best.

“He wouldn’t have had time to accumulate mana either.”

Physical strength was important for training too.

If mana was insufficient, it was difficult to continue training.

Then the highest-grade potions that could help quickly accumulate mana would be a good gift.

Highest-grade potions came out in such small quantities that they weren’t easy to buy, but Director Lee Ji-tae possessed a relatively large quantity.

“I was going to give these to Suyeon when she came back with her problem fixed.”

Clink-.

Five brilliantly blue-glowing potions were contained in the box.

“They’ve finally found their rightful owner.”

The Director smiled and immediately contacted Lee Su-yeon.

“Suyeon, where are you now? I saw your text. I’m going to meet Trainer Kang Yu-jun now. Don’t worry, this father will properly repay the debt for fixing you.”

After finishing the call, Director Lee Ji-tae adjusted his appearance.

Just then, the door suddenly burst open.

“…!”

The person who entered was So Gang-cheol.

“Brother! Why are you so late!”

“I told you not to call me brother at work.”

The Director and Deputy Director.

The two people with the highest positions in the Management Bureau bickered like they were in their twenties.

“About what you reported. I cross-checked everything written here.”

“It’s no joke, right?”

Deputy Director So Gang-cheol nodded at Director Lee Ji-tae’s words.

“It seems the dismissal became a turning point.”

Kang Yu-jun was a talent that even the Management Bureau had been watching.

Promise Guild had tried everything to save Kang Yu-jun, even requesting various trainers through the Management Bureau and looking into items.

Of course, since he couldn’t awaken at all, it was difficult no matter which trainer they assigned to him.

“There was even a trainer who claimed they could induce awakening itself, but it didn’t work out.”

Director Lee Ji-tae had frequently gone on overseas trips due to his disappointment with youths suffering from non-awakening.

Though there hadn’t been any notable results.

“Even a small trigger can cause such an explosion.”

No matter how many times he read it, the results were unbelievable.

“There’s a high possibility he’ll become S-rank soon.”

“His scores are high.”

The S-rank trainer license had different acquisition conditions from awakened of the same rank.

This was because trainer licenses fundamentally had strict conditions attached.

It was unavoidable due to the many accidents caused by training.

Thanks to this, incidents of low-level trainers becoming S-rank and causing accidents had greatly decreased.

“It’s difficult for newcomers to enter the trainer field.”

You gain one thing, you lose another.

While accidents decreased due to strict verification and testing, the number of proper new trainers was gradually declining.

Yet Yujun was breaking through all of that and emerging as a supernova.

It was no wonder the industry was being shaken up.

“The Insect Tower and dragon training. These two things are the most important.”

The Deputy Director nodded at Director Lee Ji-tae’s words.

“No response from Blue Dragon?”

“Other guilds aren’t responding either.”

The towers were under the Management Bureau’s jurisdiction.

Therefore, each guild could receive tower conquest rights through the Management Bureau.

Of course, there were towers that could be entered without the Management Bureau’s permission, but basically they had to go through the Management Bureau.

As a result, the Management Bureau gave each guild the authority to conquer towers like outsourcing, but this process sometimes created difficult situations.

This was exactly the situation with the Insect Tower.

Since the Insect Tower’s difficulty was too high and the possibility of conquest was significantly low, each guild simply didn’t bid at all.

So they had discussions, but the guilds expressed their difficulties.

The Management Bureau had the authority to forcibly mobilize guilds, but doing so would likely create an irreparable relationship afterward.

Guilds were not in a hierarchical relationship with the Management Bureau.

The Management Bureau existed to mediate and control guilds within a nation.

But forcing guilds to risk their lives entering dangerous towers? That was absurd.

So what was currently deployed was the Management Bureau’s own military team.

The powerful military team composed of S-ranks was handling tasks that the Management Bureau needed to deal with directly.

Tower conquest was one of them.

“What’s the status of Might Team 1?”

“Same as always.”

For that reason, the Management Bureau had viewed demon beast training as a breakthrough.

They tried to make demon beasts, along with Might Team 1, into the Management Bureau’s strength to reduce dependence on guilds.

“Trainer Kang Yu-jun has arrived.”

The door opened and Kang Yu-jun entered.

Kang Yu-jun who entered was dressed in a neat suit.

“Nice to meet you, Trainer Kang Yu-jun!”

He had seen Kang Yu-jun before.

But Kang Yu-jun from his non-awakened days hadn’t left much of an impression.

However, the current Kang Yu-jun was different.

Though he knew it was definitely the same person, he was so intense that it didn’t feel like the same person.

Shaaaaaak-.

Especially his eyes.

The intensity felt from his gaze clearly showed how he had achieved his results so far.

“I’m Kang Yu-jun, Director.”

Yujun greeted politely.

Crack-.

Yujun was also amazed looking at Director Lee Ji-tae.

‘This is insane.’

He had been amazed when seeing his aide, but the Director was even more impressive.

There was considerable golden light here and there, and he couldn’t see any areas that needed training at all.

‘I want to see more with my Mind’s Eye.’

Just looking with his regular vision wasn’t enough to confirm whether he truly didn’t need training.

‘There must be something.’

There was no such thing as a perfect Awakened.

If there was, he would actually want to try training that perfect Awakened.

Crack-.

But once again, Yujun didn’t use his Mind’s Eye intensely. Today wasn’t the occasion for such things.

“Deputy Director, you were here too.”

Yujun greeted Deputy Director So Gang-cheol as well.

“I need to head out now. I only came by briefly. Well then, you two have a good conversation, and I’ll be going.”

Deputy Director So Gang-cheol left the room with a smile and a parting greeting.

And the Director invited Yujun to take a seat.

“While I was away on an overseas tour, I heard about Trainer Kang Yu-jun’s remarkable achievements. Truly impressive! This is something even trainers who have spent 10 years solely on training would find difficult to accomplish. Truly excellent.”

It wasn’t empty flattery.

These were genuinely amazing accomplishments. For a discharged Youth to achieve such results immediately after switching to become a trainer.

There couldn’t be anything more astonishing than this.

“I was lucky.”

Despite his intense aura, Yujun was quite humble.

Having climbed back up from the bottom to the top, he could have been arrogant.

As the Deputy Director had said, he was indeed different.

“First, let me express my gratitude regarding Suyeon. Suyeon told me many stories about Trainer Kang.”

Director Yujitae took out a box as he spoke.

“These are top-grade magic stones and top-grade mana potions.”

Yujun opened the box and showed a surprised expression.

‘This is…’

Yujun had received various mana potions before.

Naturally, he had also received Evolution’s high-grade mana potions.

But this was truly top-grade.

This was Evolution’s most expensive line, famous for potions, and a product that was produced in such small quantities that there were conditions attached to purchasing it.

“I’m glad you seem satisfied.”

This was Kang Yu-jun who had healed his daughter.

Not only that, but he was someone who could become Korea’s hope in the future.

This level of reward for such a person was only natural. No, he actually wanted to give him even more.

“You can try it right away. You’ll probably be surprised.”

“…!”

Suddenly, Yujun’s body began to glow.

The intense power he felt in his esophagus as soon as he drank the potion. In addition to that, an aura began emanating from his entire body.

“…!”
