Transcendent Genius Trainer Chapter 145

“It’s the Japanese Government.”

At the Director’s words, Yujun’s eyes widened.

‘Japan?’

Not long ago, a proposal had come to South Korea’s Management Bureau from Japan.
Director Lee Ji-tae smiled ruefully as he continued.

“I was surprised a proposal came from the Japanese Government.”

Proposals from Japan came rarely, if at all.

“We’ve sent them requests several times, but this is the first time they’ve sent one back.”

South Korea lagged considerably behind Japan in both the number and quality of Awakeners.
Trainers were the problem area in particular.

“We’ve made proposals to Japan for Trainer recruitment before, but we’ve never received a proposal like this in return.”

Yujun knew this much himself.

‘Even when I was at Promise Guild, quite a few promising prospects from Japan came through.’

“But this time, they sent a proposal. A request for cooperation regarding Trainer needs.”
“As far as Trainers go, I understand Japan has a considerable advantage…”

Japanese Trainers were already showing substantial results overseas.

“There’s Yamamoto and Tsuchi, for example. So I was puzzled, but…”

Director Lee Ji-tae continued cautiously.

“It seems the problem is more serious than we thought. They have that… SS-rank Awakener of royal descent in Japan, don’t they?”

Yujun was aware of that existence as well.
Since it was a problem he’d never expected, he couldn’t help but open his eyes wide.

“That Awakener’s condition has apparently worsened further. They say a continuous Rampage state is ongoing, and at this rate, the person may need to lose their life.”

That made sense. Japan must have swallowed their pride and requested help from South Korea out of desperation.

“They’re likely hoping for one of our five top Trainers or healing-type Awakeners, but I suspect no one will accept.”

Yujun nodded at Director Lee Ji-tae’s words.
Yeon Da-seul and Do Kang-myeong, who had already garnered enough fame, certainly wouldn’t accept. Nor would Han Gyu-jin, who was making rapid progress.

This was a poisoned chalice.
If they succeeded, enormous glory could be gained.

Until now, South Korea had barely been considered when major training operations were conducted overseas. This could change that.
Moreover, since Japan had come with their pride bowed, the compensation was certain to be substantial.

“But it’s dangerous. Extremely so.”

The fact that Japanese Trainers couldn’t solve it and passed it along meant the chances of domestic Trainers solving it were also very slim.

“If a Rampage state is continuing, training will be difficult. You’d have to worry about safety before training.”

That’s why Director Lee Ji-tae, even as he spoke, hoped Yujun wouldn’t take it on.
But.

“You’ve decided to go ahead with training an overseas Awakener, then?”
“Yes.”
“And it has to be SS-rank without exception?”
“Yes.”

Director Lee Ji-tae sighed.
Then this request was perfect.
An overseas SS-rank Awakener wasn’t something anyone could just train.
Even if Director Lee Ji-tae wanted to do his best to help, this wasn’t something within his authority to handle.
And on the other hand, he felt hopeful.
If they accepted this proposal from Japan and solved that problem…

“It could be an opportunity to put Japan in our debt significantly.”

When help was needed in Neutral Territory, Japan’s support could be obtained freely.
Moreover, if Kang Yu-jun’s training could properly train the royal, it would have a substantially positive impact on establishing relations with Japan.

“I’ll try to create a debt myself.”

Yujun smiled.

‘The timing is quite good.’

He had been thinking about how to train an overseas SS-rank Awakener.

‘I was even considering doing the training at a loss, but now I can get compensated too.’

Director Lee Ji-tae looked at a tablet and spoke.

“Then let me tell you the compensation right away.”

Yujun’s eyes lit up and he leaned in to listen carefully.
If the Japanese Government had gone so far as to humble themselves and request help, the compensation would be substantial.

“The compensation is… I’ve checked this multiple times and it’s truly remarkable. First is the Golden Wheel Shield. Japan has dozens of Sacred Treasures as artifacts, and this is one of them.”
“…!”

The first compensation alone was considerable.

“And two billion yen.”

Roughly two hundred billion won in Korean currency.

“Fifty High-grade Runestones will be provided.”

The compensation was staggering.

‘Gyu-cheol would be thrilled with high-grade Runestones.’

It was the kind of compensation that would make even Fen drool.

‘I wonder if he’d eat the Demon Stones or the Runestones.’

After confirming the compensation, Yujun nodded immediately.

“Tell them I’ll do it.”

Yujun accepted an official document from Director Lee Ji-tae.

Subject: Japanese SS-rank Awakener, Royalty Kei.
Ability: Super Pyrokinesis

‘Super Pyrokinesis.’

When it went Rampant, this Pyrokinesis type was one of the most difficult abilities to suppress.
But Yujun wasn’t worried.

‘This should be interesting.’

“The official training itself came through the Training Association, so you’ll need to discuss the details with them. I’ll contact Chairman Ryu Jung-hwan at the Association first.”

The two finished their discussion and talked about Hero Training.

“Wow…”

While he wasn’t deeply versed in training, just hearing about it showed how far this training deviated from common sense.

“So the Hero’s current condition is…”
“Fully restored.”

Yujun spoke simply of restoration, but in Director Lee Ji-tae’s assessment, the Hero’s current condition wasn’t just normal—it had far exceeded the level of their prime.

“Really… I can’t help but be amazed. Trainer Kang. I honestly thought this would take quite some time.”

Though he’d said to come soon, that was because the Chairman wasn’t particularly diligent.
There were cases where people would come a week or a month later after hearing something like this.
But to restore the Hero to their original state in just two days, and on top of that, achieve Awakener Recovery…

“I did work hard, but it’s thanks to Awakener Baek Hyun-jin following along so well.”

Director Lee Ji-tae shook his head firmly.

“If training worked just from following along well, there wouldn’t be any sick Awakeners by now!”

Then he directly contacted someone.

“We’re not letting this go quietly!”

The Director spoke like some sort of villain.

“The Hero’s training success is something the President is currently paying attention to. When I report this success to him… something significant will come of it.”

It was a direct report to the Presidential Office.

“You’ve worked hard. Trainer Kang.”

* * *

After sending Yujun off, Director Lee Ji-tae moved quickly.

“Drop the bomb fast! It’s a race against time! No need to go lukewarm!”

While the public was still abuzz with the Dragon Training.
He planned to drop something else big.

“With this, all that talk of him being new or whatever will disappear.”
“We got the Association authentication! They say they’re uploading the video!”

This matter was being handled with the Training Association.
Chairman Ryu Jung-hwan had promised unwavering and unlimited support for Kang Yu-jun without any hesitation.

“You’d have to be an idiot not to. After seeing the Hero Training.”

Director Lee Ji-tae took charge of the situation with a smile.

-[Breaking News] Management Bureau Recognizes Hero Baek Hyun-jin’s Training Success… A New Legend Born from Kang Yu-jun’s Fingertips.
-[Breaking News] Kang Yu-jun Trainer, Once Unrecognized as Non-S-rank, Takes a Leap Forward. “Hero Training.”

Journalists friendly with him began writing articles quickly.

“Is this right?”
“Is the source accurate?”
“Yes. The source is accurate. I got it from Director Lee Ji-tae.”
“Huh. This is honestly terrifying. It’s a scoop, but is this really true?”

Top executives at each media outlet cross-checked multiple times.
The claims were simply too unbelievable.

“How does someone reach Hero Training level in just two months?”

What was especially remarkable was Kang Yu-jun’s composure and his continued willingness to take on challenges.

“At this level, his shoulders should be in the clouds.”

He’d already surpassed the supernova standard.
Starting with Demon Beast Training, he’d been attempting impossible training, achieving consecutive accomplishments that any single one would be remarkable for a Trainer.

So he had the right to enjoy it.
He also had the right to refute those spouting nonsense and trying to tear him down.
But Yujun simply continued training quietly and showed through action.
That he had the qualifications.
That he had the skill.

“It’s a human victory for real. Let’s make a feature article fast. How about we run with: ‘The Fallen Hero was Revived by the Fallen Awakener, Kang Yu-jun.'”

The narrative of Yujun being expelled from Promise Guild carried considerable weight.
Starting with breaking news, YouTube, broadcasts, and Hunternet began buzzing with hot topics.

-We’re still talking about Dragon Training, though.
-Hero Training?
-The plot threads just keep coming.

Hunternet was thrilled with the new development.

-I told you, right? I said Kang Yu-jun would skyrocket?
-Yeah, you did ;;
-Good call betting on Kang Yu-jun’s coin. Good choice not leaving hate comments. I was skeptical, but he proved it with results.
-My victory for not leaving hate comments.

“Hahahaha! I knew it!”

Sky Guild.
When news of Yujun broke, the Guild Master of Sky Guild was delighted beyond measure.

“Should I make a banner?”

-The first guild where Trainer Kang Yu-jun was active.
-The training ground where Trainer Kang Yu-jun trained.

He quickly prepared banners.
While Yujun had succeeded in numerous trainings so far, this training elevated his standing to a new level.

“Hero training, no less.”

Who was Baek Hyun-jin?
A former Awakener who had represented South Korea.

“Isn’t this already the level of South Korea’s representative Trainer?”

Having trained such a hero, it was fair to say he could be considered South Korea’s representative Trainer, surpassing the existing five top Trainers.

“At this point, it’s just a matter of preference.”

While his career was still short, his peak was higher, so it could be argued he outshone them.
The enthusiastic Guild Master of Sky Guild paused for a moment.

“I didn’t get permission.”

While true, it seemed better to get Yujun’s permission separately.

“Just to be safe.”

The Guild Master of Sky Guild immediately contacted Yujun.
But right after sending the message, a thought occurred to him.

“He’s probably getting calls non-stop right now.”

There was a chance a reply might not come quickly.

“Then I shouldn’t make the banner yet.”

He didn’t want to cause trouble for Yujun.
He couldn’t impose on Kang Yu-jun for the sake of the guild’s profit.
How much profit had the guild gained because of Yujun?
Especially with Woo Ha-na’s recruitment, Sky Guild was currently achieving tremendous results in Tower conquests.
Ha-na had already become a main player in the first team.

Fortunately, Yujun seemed to remember Sky Guild, as a quick reply came back.

-Yes, you can use it.

And at that same moment, the Guild Master at Neverland Guild was also laughing cheerfully.

“His talent showed from the sprout stage. I knew this would happen.”

He was the man who had taught an S-rank Awakener back when there was no license.

“But this is still surprising. Hero training!”

Who was Hero Baek Hyun-jin?

“The very person all Trainers had failed with.”

That Hero had been trained by Yujun.
And on top of that, achieving Recovery was remarkable.

“Was it really all fixed? Did his abilities really come back completely?”

Hunternet.

-The Hero is returning??
-How in the world did he fix it??
-Healing-type Awakeners couldn’t even fix it, right?
-Apparently it’s all fixed now.
-Did you not know?
-They said there’s a press conference soon, so we should be able to confirm it clearly then.

This Hero Training of Yujun’s came as a tremendous shock.
For decades, the Hero had attempted Recovery in various ways.
Because of that, even laypeople knew.
The Hero would never return.
There was no one who could train the Hero.
That Hero, thought to be finished, had returned.
It couldn’t help but become a hot topic for Trainers and Awakeners alike, and for the general public as well.

-I don’t know how many times I’ve heard the name Kang Yu-jun today.
-He’s everywhere.

South Korea was being painted with Kang Yu-jun.
