Transcendent Genius Trainer 192

“Hello. I’m Choi Yu-na.”
MyTube.
—New video from the [Trainer Choi Yu-na] channel.
Originally, she had been quite active on MyTube until her condition deteriorated to its worst.
But after reaching a point where she couldn’t train, she’d let the channel languish in neglect.
Now, after a long absence, a new video appeared on Choi Yu-na’s channel.
“Some of you may have seen my broadcast announcement, but I felt it proper to make an official introduction, so I recorded this video.”
In the video, Choi Yu-na appeared remarkably bright and cheerful.
“I received training from Trainer Kang Yu-jun, and my condition has improved significantly. So now I’m preparing to return to work as a Trainer in earnest.”
Her official comeback declaration detonated the comments section.
—Wow.
—I really thought we’d never see her again.
—I received training from Trainer Yu-na before. Thanks to her, I can even clear A-rank Towers now.
—This is a triumph of the human spirit, truly.
—But what exactly is this Kang Yu-jun guy??
—He’s a god’s hand, basically.
—God. Yu. Jun.
—God. God. God.
Choi Yu-na laughed lightly, then immediately demonstrated her current condition.
Crack—. Crack-crack-crack—!
“I now have perfect control over my Lightning Mana. You don’t need to worry about anything.”
It was a widely accepted fact that Trainers from the Cheonrae Choi Family benefited greatly from their training methods.
Through their powerful Lightning Mana, the human body received stimulation, Mana pathways expanded readily, and most importantly, within just a few training sessions, Awakeners could grow stronger or resolve existing problems with ease.
Yet despite those advantages, there was a massive risk—one of safety.
When Lightning Mana ran rampant, both the Trainer and the Awakeners undergoing training could suffer severe injuries.
That was why people described Cheonrae Choi Family training as High Risk High Return.
But now that risk had vanished.
Low Risk High Return.
“Not just me, but all Trainers from the Cheonrae Choi Family have overcome the dangers of Lightning Mana. Now Lightning Mana is no longer a curse—it’s become a complete blessing and a partner to us.”
It was a shocking declaration.
—Wait, only Trainer Choi Yu-na overcame it?
—Wow, doesn’t this completely change the standing of the Cheonrae Choi Family?
—Will they become the top family in Korea?
—Yeah, this changes everything now.
With the weakness of the Cheonrae Choi Family gone, only efficient training through Lightning Mana remained.
The same held true for the Awakeners themselves.
“Not only our Trainers but Awakeners who use Lightning Mana will also actively conduct raids and work as mercenaries.”
The Cheonrae Choi Family did operate raid teams composed of Awakeners, but fundamentally, they were dispatched as mercenaries to other Guilds and raid teams more often.
Now the Cheonrae Choi Family’s Awakeners were stepping into the arena without risk.
The Cheonrae Choi Family, which once had only past glory, sought to reclaim the glory they had lost.
—So they’re going to beat the Kim family and become the best?
—But wasn’t the Kim family also trained by Trainer Kang Yu-jun?
—Haha. So it’s an internal rivalry between Kang’s trainees.
—The family head there changed anyway.
—They’re selling artifacts guaranteed by the Hero.
—Either way, South Korea’s power has increased. This is great news for us.
From the perspective of Awakeners and Trainers, competition had intensified; but nationally, it was a massive gain.
“…My explanation went on too long, didn’t it? I’m truly grateful to be able to return and meet you all again as a Trainer. I thought I was going to die soon.”
A new life.
The life that followed could be considered a bonus existence.
So she no longer held back.
“The first person I’ll be training is…”
She paused for a moment before continuing.
“Awakener Hwang Dae-geon.”
Hwang Dae-geon.
—Hwang Dae-geon?
—Hwang Dae-geon?
—Insane. That Hwang Dae-geon?
Everyone was shocked.
The time-bomb, Hwang Dae-geon.
Like the Hero Baek Hyeon-jin, he was an Awakener who had been forced into retirement with an Untrainable Judgment.
“As you all know, he’s the one called the time-bomb.”
—Why would you train Hwang Dae-geon?
—Wow. However did Kang Yu-jun train Choi Yu-na…
—Why attempt such a difficult training right after your comeback?
Was she really going to train Hwang Dae-geon immediately after returning as a Trainer?
“The reason I’m pursuing such difficult training is simple. Because I was trained by Trainer Kang Yu-jun.”
It was a beautifully simple reason.
She wanted to follow in Kang Yu-jun’s footsteps.
“I’d be grateful if you’d watch over my progress.”
***
Association President Ryu Jung-hwan, upon receiving Yujun’s contact, was deeply taken aback.
The Cheonrae Choi Family training was complete?
“How did you overcome the Lightning Mana?”
This wasn’t something to accomplish easily.
It was Lightning Mana, no less.
From the day the Cheonrae Choi Family rose to prominence as a great family until now, it remained unsolved.
How many Awakeners from the Cheonrae Choi Family had retired because of Lightning Mana?
How many had died because of it!
The Choi family members Ryu Jung-hwan had seen in his youth had all retired tens of years ago.
Brilliant talent combined with early retirement had become the symbol of the Cheonrae Choi Family, and so he’d thought it could never be overcome.
“The Cheonrae Choi Family really tried everything to resolve this.”
Every generation of Cheonrae Choi family heads had poured their strength into solving the Lightning Mana problem.
Money, prestige, and connections.
They mobilized everything available to a great family standing at the top of South Korea, yet ultimately failed.
They had given up on this Lightning Mana.
Instead of seeking a way to overcome it, they focused on strategies for how to utilize family Awakeners who bloomed brilliantly yet briefly.
It was a kind of surrender.
They had officially admitted they couldn’t handle Lightning Mana.
“But that…”
He had done it in mere days.
Not just days.
“Two days.”
Exactly two days.
He had solved the Choi family’s problem in two days.
“Trainer Kang Yu-jun will be arriving. Prepare things.”
“Sir?”
At the Association President’s words, his aide’s pupils quivered.
“He says he’s finished.”
“The Cheonrae Choi Family training is already complete, sir?”
Hearing the President’s words, his aide’s face filled with bewilderment.
“The Lightning Mana problem has been resolved…?”
“That Lightning Mana has been resolved, he says. All members of the Choi family were trained, and they’ll no longer suffer from Lightning Mana, he says.”
At the Association President’s words, his aides’ faces filled with shock.
“Um… but…”
“That doesn’t…”
“I know it doesn’t make sense.”
The Association President let out a hollow laugh.
“I’m shocked too. But it does put my mind at ease.”
The British Queen showed no sign of departing Korea until Yujun arrived.
A day or two of official protocols could be managed, but afterward, President Im Cheol-jun would also need to conduct business elsewhere, which meant the full burden of the Queen’s protocols would fall entirely on President Ryu.
Protocols for the Queen had been continuous since today, and while hosting her, he couldn’t properly handle his own duties.
It was because the guest was such a prominent figure.
So he’d been under considerable stress, but that stress would end soon.
“What a relief. What a relief.”
“…But really, how did he manage it?”
The Association President shook his head.
“I don’t know either.”
How he’d done it in two days remained a mystery.
The Association President immediately contacted the Queen.
“Your Majesty. Trainer Kang Yu-jun has completed his training, I’m told. I’ll contact him right away.”
“Oh, really? I heard it wasn’t an easy training.”
The Queen responded with a puzzled air.
It was a training undertaken after declining a Knighthood.
Of course the difficulty level had to be high.
“Yes. It was very difficult training, but…”
The Association President spoke with a troubled expression.
“He finished it in two days.”
***
Not long after sending the message, a callback came immediately from the Association President.
—Trainer Kang!
The Association President’s agitated voice came through.
—The President is waiting for you now. And…
With the Association President’s further explanation, Yujun couldn’t help but be startled.
A visit from the British Queen?
“Surely she came to award me Knighthood?”
—Yes! This is unprecedented! If it wouldn’t be presumptuous…
It certainly wasn’t presumptuous.
‘I never thought she’d come in person.’
Yujun himself did find it a shame to miss out on a British Knighthood.
‘Meryl must have made a strong request on my behalf.’
Yujun laughed softly to himself.
‘Guess I should accept it then.’
There was no reason to refuse when they’d come all this way to bestow it.
And in doing so, it would be good to proceed with additional training for Meryl as well.
It was an opportunity to diagnose her once more with the True Eye.
‘I had some lingering regrets, actually.’
He had released all twenty-two curses and trained her to make her far stronger than before.
But thinking about it now, there were quite a few things left to improve.
‘The True Eye. And Thought Acceleration, which I learned recently.’
He wanted to draw out Meryl Holland’s potential to the fullest.
***
Cheongwadae.
After finishing his training, Yujun arrived at Cheongwadae and, guided by security personnel, reached Sangchunjae, where state guests were received.
‘Truly the British Queen. The security level is impressive.’
Here were security personnel of President Im Cheol-jun as well as the British Queen’s own security detail, all of them radiating formidable strength just by their presence.
‘All S-rank or higher.’
Among them were those who appeared to be SS-rank Awakeners.
In particular, the tallest among them stood out—he appeared far more powerful than even Meryl, Baek Hyeon-jin, or Japan’s Kei.
Whoosh—.
When Yujun observed him with the True Eye, the man seemed to sense something and looked back at Yujun.
‘Good instincts.’
Yet he appeared to only feel something; he didn’t seem to grasp the intention behind Yujun’s gaze completely.
‘The True Eye is certainly powerful.’
If it had been Mind’s Eye – Extreme, he would have been discovered just now.
“This way, please. They’re waiting for you!”
Just as he was about to enter with the security personnel, Association President Ryu Jung-hwan hurried out urgently.
“Trainer Kang!”
“President.”
“Ah, you must be exhausted. Come this way. And congratulations! To have succeeded in training the Cheonrae Choi Family!”
“I think you’re the one who’s been working hard, President. After all, the British Queen suddenly came because of me.”
“Not at all! I never imagined such a thing would happen in my lifetime, but now that I’ve experienced it, it’s wonderful!”
Inside were the British Queen and Meryl, seated together.
“Your Majesty, I’m Kang Yu-jun.”
“Pleased to meet you.”
At Yujun’s formal greeting, the Queen rose from her seat to accept it.
Isabella IV.
He’d heard she was in her nineties, yet she appeared remarkably vigorous for her age.
Crack—.
Yujun’s eyes gleamed.
As they exchanged greetings, Yujun activated the True Eye, and his gaze fixed on the area near the Queen’s heart.
And his brow furrowed slightly.
‘This… her physical condition is…’
