Transcendent Genius Trainer 151

Kay forced his eyes open, straining to focus through the haze of his vision.
He had been dreaming for a long time.
It was a dream of being submerged in deep water, thrashing about helplessly.
He had given everything he had to escape.
Breaking free. Breaking and breaking again.
Using all his strength to rise above the surface.

But he could not.
His breath came faster and faster, and still he could not escape the abyss.
It was over.
Everything was over.
Then he heard a voice.

—Save me!

He wanted to cry out, but at the same time the pain was unbearable.
So without thinking, he had spoken.
This long, endless suffering.

—End it.
—Kill me.

He had screamed those words.
Then a voice came again from outside.

—Whether you die or live is mine to decide.

Whoooosh—
And the sound of water.
Something was cutting through the water at tremendous speed, descending from above.

He looked upward.
In the space so deep that nothing could be seen,
Whoooosh—
Light was beginning to shine through.

“……Huh?”

And a hand suddenly reached through the light and lifted him up.

“Cough—cough—cough—!”

His vision brightened and sound became clear.

“Hack. Hack.”

Kay began coughing violently.

“I’m alive……I lived……!”

Yujun gestured for Tsukishima to come over.

“The Runaway Syndrome has stopped. Thanks to your help.”
“But—but—you said he would surely die if the syndrome stopped…….”
“I did. That’s why I needed your help. From you, Tsukishima. To save him.”
“Hmm…….”

Tsukishima was an SS-rank Awakener who had been through everything.
But even he could not remain composed.

“I’ll need translation.”

Yujun spoke to Tsukishima and then examined Kay’s body.
He was still in pain, still confused about what had happened.

‘He’s essentially still asleep.’

So he would wake him and train him.
That was when Kay collapsed.

“……!”

Yujun’s brow furrowed.

Smack—!

“If he faints now, he’s really dead.”

He had been trapped in the Runaway Syndrome for far too long.
His mind and body were probably both in terrible condition.

“I need to call a healer—a healer first…….”
“It’s fine.”

Yujun stopped Tsukishima, who was about to call for a healer in a panic.
He had been through something similar before.

“I’ll restore him and then train him.”

Tsukishima nodded repeatedly.

“What should I do!”

He already trusted Yujun to such a degree that he would believe anything he said.
Normally, he should question the idea of restoration and training and immediately call a healer.
How could a trainer possibly do anything like healing?
There was rehabilitation training, but that wasn’t healing.
But hadn’t he already seen miracles?
If the person who caused those miracles said to do it, then he would simply do it.

“Potions. We’ll need a lot of Recovery Potions.”

* * *

“……?”

At the Osaka Training Ground.
Sato, arriving on schedule, was startled by a loud boom.

“Has the Runaway Syndrome worsened?”

The interior of the Osaka Training Ground was sealed with Artifacts to prevent sound from leaking outside.
As Sato quickly approached the Training Ground, he heard the boom again.
This sound was not leaking from inside.

“The Training Ground door is open.”

He bit his lip and began to run.

“He shouldn’t have arrived yet, so why is the door already…….”

Might Team 2 of the All Stars, who had picked up Yujun from the airport, should have brought him to the hotel to unpack and only then come to the Osaka Training Ground.
Knowing this, Sato had come ahead expecting to arrive before them.

“Could the seal have broken? Has the Training Ground door been destroyed?”

The Prince had been sealed within the Training Ground by Artifacts.
If the door was open,
Could he have broken free himself?
Sato arrived at the Training Ground in a hurry and could only rub his eyes.

The door to the Training Ground was indeed open.
But the Prince had not opened it.

Crash—! Crack—!
Training was in progress.
Might Team 2 of the All Stars was at the back, breathing out faint Mana with considerably tense faces.

“Welcome, Sato.”

A member of Might Team 2, noticing Sato, greeted him.

“What’s going on here?”
“Trainer Kang Yu-jun is currently training.”
“Why did he arrive so quickly?”
“He didn’t stop at the hotel. Trainer Kang Yu-jun wanted to come directly to the Osaka Training Ground.”
“Directly to the Training Ground? Why…….”

Either way, he would need to unpack.
There was no need to come to the Training Ground so quickly.

“He said today…… he would finish it.”
“What?”

Sato, bewildered, quickly looked forward.
Crash—! Crack—!

“Huh……?”

He could only rub his eyes again.
Prince Kay was not in the Runaway Syndrome state.
He appeared to have regained consciousness and escaped the Syndrome.
This was because every time Kay used Pyrokinetic Powers, Yujun struck him.
Thud—!
He would strike, and the Prince would faint. Strike, and he would faint.
But Kay would quickly regain consciousness and get back up.

“His Highness has regained consciousness. He is currently undergoing training.”
“……Ah, but this is…….”

Sato blinked.
He could not understand how the situation was unfolding.
The Runaway Syndrome had been lifted and the Prince’s consciousness had returned.
And all of this had happened less than an hour after Kang Yu-jun had entered Japan.

“I brought them!”

Tsukishima came running with a clinking sound.

“Team Leader Tsukishima!”
“Ah, Sato, you’ve arrived! My apologies, I have something to do right now.”

Tsukishima quickly handed a glass bottle to Yujun.
Yujun was focused on Kay and had not even noticed Sato’s arrival.

“What—what is all this? Team Leader Tsukishima. I don’t understand what’s happening right now!”

Tsukishima, his task complete, stepped back.
He was breathing heavily from how quickly he had moved.

“Phew…….”

Tsukishima took a deep breath and explained the situation.
From Yujun’s arrival at Osaka Airport to this moment in the Osaka Training Ground where he had calmed Kay’s Runaway Syndrome.
Hearing the story, Sato’s mouth fell open.
It was beyond astonishment—it sounded like a story from legend.

“So right now…….”
“He has resolved the Runaway Syndrome. From what I understand, Kay’s internal condition was severely damaged, and right now he’s recovering while simultaneously reconstructing it…….”
“What?!”

Sato’s eyes widened to their fullest.
What was this person saying?

He understood preventing the Runaway Syndrome.
After all, they said Yujun had trained Baek Hyun-jin, a hero comparable to Bito Ryuichi.
He could accept that this impossible training had succeeded.
But this was unreasonable.

“Mana Circuit Reconstruction isn’t such an easy technique. And he just escaped the Runaway Syndrome!”

That would mean his internal condition was severely damaged.

“……You anticipated this much, didn’t you? I was rather shocked. How did you manage to bring someone so extraordinary? Through what connections did you bring him?”

Tsukishima was actually quite impressed with Sato and the Awakened Person Management Bureau’s power.

“……I didn’t expect it to be this extent.”

He had thought Yujun might be able to somewhat suppress the Runaway Syndrome.
But he had not anticipated a result like this.
How could one predict something like this?

“That Trainer Kang Yu-jun. He’s not just S-rank. He seems to have transcended that. I received some brief training from him earlier…….”

Tsukishima’s words did not continue.
A loud boom drew both men’s attention to Yujun.
Yujun was easily stopping Kay’s uncontrolled Pyrokinetic Powers with his Crystal Stone Staff.

“How is that S-rank?”

Crack—! Crack—!
Yujun swung the Crystal Stone Staff, shaking the Prince’s body.
As he injected Mana, he suppressed the backflowing Mana and gradually reconstructed the Mana Circuit.
Sato gasped anew at the sight.

“He’s not even using his hands……?”

Mana Circuit Reconstruction alone was difficult enough, but Yujun was now performing the reconstruction by piercing with his staff, his hands never touching.

“What in the world has happened in South Korea……?”

Where did such a monster of a trainer come from?
Sato swallowed.
Then he could not tear his eyes away, entranced.
Not only him, but everyone present was in the same state.
They were mesmerized watching Yujun train Kay.
Thump—.

“Technique. Breathing. Method…….”

With each movement Yujun made, each touch of the Crystal Stone Staff, Kay came back to life.
Kay, whom no one else could have saved, was coming back to life.
Gradually the agonized expression faded, and in his eyes there kindled the will to live.

“The Mana Circuit has been reconstructed. Next is to properly imprint it upon the body.”

Yujun snapped his fingers.
Whoooosh—
A dark Aura spread from Yujun’s body and soon Fen and Tан were summoned.

“……A monster?”
“Those Demon Beasts you trained……!”

Sato marveled at the sight of the dragon and wolf.
Both Demon Beasts moved with precision according to Yujun’s gestures.

“Hmm…….”

Japan had long devoted itself to Demon Beast Training.
Sato himself had taken considerable interest in this training and kept attempting it, but he had never succeeded, not even found a lead.
Yet there before his eyes stood a trainer who had accomplished what he could not.
Kay, now conscious, spoke to Yujun in English.
Yujun smiled slightly in response.

‘Now we can actually communicate.’

“This is live combat training. The Mana Circuits newly constructed within your body are not yet perfectly rebuilt. I cannot complete that for you.”

Yujun spoke while meeting the other’s eyes.

“Kay. You must imprint it yourself. Because originally it belongs to you.”
“……I understand.”

Kay nodded gravely.

“Fen. Tan.”

Yujun called the two Demon Beasts and pointed at Kay.

“Kill him.”

The two Demon Beasts charged at Kay at tremendous speed.

Boom—!
Then Pyrokinetic Powers erupted.
Fen and Tan’s bodies stopped momentarily and began spinning round and round.

‘Oh.’

Yujun was inwardly impressed.

‘Truly different. Distinctly different.’

It was strength in a completely different direction from Baek Hyun-jin.

‘Clearly different from having lost everything and rebuilt from scratch.’

Fen and Tan tore free from the Pyrokinetic Powers binding them and charged straight at Kay.

“Ugh!”

Then Yujun moved forward.
Thrust—
He stabbed near Kay’s heart with the Crystal Stone Staff three times, as if giving a massage.

‘The long Runaway Syndrome has left the body functioning incorrectly.’

He had restored it to some degree, but stability was at rock bottom.

‘Immediate adjustment is necessary.’

—Immediate adjustment is activated!—

Whoooosh—
Sato’s eyes lit up.
He took in every single movement of Yujun’s training.

“Beautiful.”

He could score each movement.
And based on those scores, he conducted score-based training records.

Thump—
Yujun moved forward and swung the staff.

10 points.
Predicting Mana Backflow. He thrusts.
10 points. Turning around to thrust. From the side. From the front. Avoiding the Prince’s Pyrokinetic Powers. Thrusting. At some point the score stabilized.
10 points. 10 points. 10 points. 10 points.
Every movement had no waste.

Moving with precision at the correct location, correct speed, correct direction.
Then the strength of the Pyrokinetic Powers began to weaken momentarily.

‘Now.’

“Ability Enhancement.”

Yujun immediately used the Ability Enhancement skill.

‘Sufficient preliminary training has been accomplished!’

The preparatory training had been conducted thoroughly.

—The ability is enhanced!—

Boom—boom—boom—boom—boom—boom—boom—!
With a tremendous boom, shock waves burst forth from Kay’s body.

“Ah…….”

Sato let out a gasp of wonder at a training method he had never seen before.

“Now I understand.”

Why that white lion had said he lost to Yujun.
And everything was proven before his eyes—how South Korea’s special Awakened Person, the hero Baek Hyun-jin, had been trained.

Whoosh—!
The Prince collapsed to his knees as if falling, and Might Team 2 was startled.

“……!”
“Is he injured……?”
“No. He is not.”

Sato, who understood the situation, shook his head and spoke calmly.

“The training…… is complete.”

After watching Kay for a moment, Sato watched Yujun turn toward them and bowed deeply.

“That was a perfect training.”
