Transcendent Genius Trainer – Episode 229
“The flames are eating away at the lifespan of your joints. Given how severe the inflammation is, you’ve clearly overdrawn on your abilities far beyond what your body can handle.”
Jenna nodded at Yujun’s assessment.
“You’ve also been cycling your Mana Road more aggressively to amplify the power output.”
Through Thought Acceleration, Yujun began to see through all of her problems at once.
‘The issue is that this mana isn’t reaching every part of her body evenly.’
The mana had become heavier.
Its quality had improved, but circulation had become harder as a result.
‘Thanks to her Trait, this heavy mana is still circulating, but the efficiency is terrible. There’s too much mana loss, and it’s not distributing evenly across different regions.’
Her body was simply struggling just to maintain circulation.
‘Without her Trait, it would have seized up already.’
It was her Circulation Trait that allowed this malformed state to persist.
‘And on top of that, her hidden Gentle Breeze Trait is assisting circulation too. There’s a gentle wind blowing through.’
There was no doubt it was a dangerous condition.
‘This happened because of overambition.’
It was common enough for S-rank and higher Awakeners to experience this, but Jenna’s condition was more severe due to her excessive drive.
‘Jenna must have realized that she can’t reach Upper S-rank from Mid S-rank in her current state. So she pushed herself even harder.’
The micro-fractures and overload accumulating in her body must have worsened steadily.
-Special Condition: Micro-fractures, Asymmetrical Skill Proficiency
‘I knew this would be here.’
Awakeners are beings of extreme strengths and weaknesses.
Their strong points become endlessly strong, just as their weak points become endlessly weak.
‘It’s not a problem at lower ranks.’
A-rank and below.
Even if someone was only in the lower tiers of S-rank, their advantages could compensate for their weaknesses. Yujun had trained the Promise Guild’s Youths in exactly that way.
But to break through to Upper S-rank and beyond, these weaknesses had to be carefully addressed.
‘Otherwise the balance collapses.’
Upper S-rank and beyond couldn’t be reached through raw power alone.
‘The caliber itself has to change.’
Caliber.
An Awakener’s strength had to reach a minimum standard.
It meant reaching an entirely different grade of power than before.
But with this kind of asymmetrical skill proficiency as a special condition, the very opportunity for further growth was being lost.
“The problem is clear.”
Yujun immediately began preparing the training.
“Volcano. Unleash it.”
Whoooosh—!
Her Volcano roared to life with terrible intensity.
Flames. The flames that melted everything were far more fierce than anything Yujun had seen before.
Moreover, the wind ability awakened alongside it gradually ramped up her flames to even greater ferocity, like gears shifting into higher gear.
‘The power is good, but the sustainability is the problem……’
Her stamina was dropping, so the duration was poor.
“……Yes.”
It had been the same the first time she met him, but now when their eyes met, it felt like everything about her was being laid completely bare.
He understands without words being spoken.
With Yujun, she could be seen completely.
The sense of trust that came from that was extraordinary.
Even though the training hadn’t progressed very far yet, she felt a deep sense of stability.
“……Did I really?”
“Yes. In terms of raw power alone, you’ve far exceeded my expectations.”
But this wasn’t the time to relax.
“I couldn’t bring out the full power without sacrificing other things.”
“Five seconds……”
The firepower was tremendous. But this power didn’t sustain.
But now she was hoarding it, compressing it, then detonating once with a bang.
She was focused only on momentary bursts of firepower.
Someone with tremendous stamina also has powerful output and incredible speed.
To use a baseball analogy, they possessed diverse talents.
This Gentle Breeze’s power synergized extremely well with her Circulation Trait.
This time he pulled out the Geumgang Iron Staff and seized the crimson light and micro-fractures.
Then he restored her Mana Purity.
When the limit threshold was high, raising that ceiling would raise the base numbers as well.
-Stat Points increase!
-Stamina Stat increases!
‘Raising stamina.’
Yujun then raised her Strength stat as well.
-Strength Stat increases!
After raising Jenna’s stats, he began the serious training in earnest.
-Circuit Implantation Skill is used!
‘Starting with the Mana Road first.’
Yujun erased her damaged Mana Road and created a new one.
This enormous process took just five minutes in reality.
Whoosh— Whoooosh—.
As her body transformed in an instant, Jenna felt a profound sense of elevation.
“Just how… incredible is your skill?”
She didn’t know exactly how the training was progressing.
But she could feel that she was changing.
“It’s improved somewhat.”
Yujun smiled faintly.
“Force Sync: Avatar.”
After Yujun precisely synchronized their sync rate—
“Guide Light.”
Whoooosh—.
“You’ll see something with your eyes. That’s the answer key.”
“……!”
A brilliant light appeared clearly in her eyes.
But it was hard to follow, even though it looked simple. The movements were deceptively difficult.
“I’ll guide you.”
Yujun stepped forward.
He drew up the internal Mana Road and made it so her body could move according to what the Guide Light showed.
Whoooosh—!
“Volcano.”
Whoooosh—!
Her Volcano erupted with wild intensity.
“Sustain it.”
“I can’t sustain it. If I do, the power will……”
Drop.
That’s how it had to be.
“……?”
But it didn’t drop.
“It’s not dropping……?”
In fact, she could maintain it continuously.
Whoooosh—!
“Gentle Breeze.”
Yujun activated her hidden Gentle Breeze Trait alongside her Circulation Trait.
‘Guide Light turned out to be more helpful than I expected.’
With Guide Light’s cooperation, Yujun could proceed with her training smoothly.
“Nnngh……”
“Fen. Tan!”
Yujun summoned Fen and Tan.
“From now on, you’ll be striking those Demon Beasts with your Volcano.”
At the sight of the Demon Beasts, Jenna’s body stiffened.
Similarly, Im Seok-jae and Woo Ha-na, seeing them for the first time, froze in shock.
Only Lee Su-yeon welcomed the appearance of the two Demon Beasts.
She had trained with the Demon Beasts before.
“Wish I’d brought snacks!”
She expressed considerable regret.
Whoosh—.
Jenna paid no mind to their reactions and focused on unleashing her power.
For the past few months, she had only concentrated on bursts of firepower, never training sustained output.
But.
“I’ll support you. Just recall your previous sensation.”
Jenna immediately began recalling that feeling as Yujun instructed.
Whoosh—.
But it was difficult to recover a faded sensation all at once through mere thought.
‘It’s okay.’
Just as her Volcano’s momentum was about to drop, Yujun compensated.
‘Cycle the Mana Road faster and sustain the ability.’
“……!”
Jenna’s Volcano didn’t lose its momentum.
“Stronger.”
Crash—!
Fen and Tan pressed hard against Jenna.
She pushed off the ground and used her wind-based Trait to confuse Fen and Tan with erratic movements.
‘Her combat sense is truly excellent.’
But only briefly.
Rumble—!
Mana began backing up inside her body.
‘There it is.’
“It was good that I called Jenna. There could have been serious trouble.”
At the sudden mana backflow, Jenna’s arm trembled.
Yujun immediately flicked her arm while using Force Sync: Avatar to powerfully suppress the Mana Road in that limb, expelling the mana cleanly.
‘Back to her original mana.’
So it could circulate smoothly.
Whoooosh—!
“Wow……”
“That was mana backflow…… and he just caught it. How is that even possible!”
Im Seok-jae was dumbfounded.
When mana backflow occurred, one had to completely stop moving and halt the mana circulation.
Otherwise the body would be torn apart from inside.
Yet Yujun had simply flicked it away, neutralizing the backflow entirely.
Im Seok-jae’s eyes shone.
“He’s a god. A god of South Korea!”
“…….”
Lee Su-yeon looked at Im Seok-jae and shook her head.
“His abilities must be incredibly strong.”
The fact that someone this strange had been picked meant his abilities were truly extraordinary.
Leaving behind their murmurs, Yujun focused on Jenna.
“Jenna. Focus.”
Whoooosh—.
“Now we’ll break it.”
The false ceiling Jenna had created herself.
“Shatter.”
Crack-crack-crack-crack-crack—!
Her Volcano began to explode.
