Transcendent Genius Trainer Episode 6

Guild Master Lee Hyeok-jun burst into anger at the nonsensical words.

“What are you talking about, Manager Han! Are you still half asleep? Are you trying to joke around with me?”

“No, Guild Master. I’m serious.”

“Tell him to come right now! No, I’ll go there myself!”

As Manager Han kept saying strange things, the furious guild master abruptly stood up from his seat.

“No, this doesn’t make sense. He just started yesterday. Manager Han, didn’t you also report after seeing it yesterday? But he fixed that problem in just one day?”

On the way to the training ground, the guild master poured out words like a machine gun.

It was natural. Woo Ha-na’s weakness had been a problem that persisted for quite a long time.

It meant this wasn’t the kind of problem that could be solved so easily.

“But you’re saying it’s fixed? That weakness? Did you confirm it with your own eyes?”

“Yes, from what I confirmed myself, that’s correct.”

“You really confirmed it yourself, right?”

“Yes.”

“Let’s go quickly.”

The guild master arrived in front of the private training ground, took a deep breath, and stepped inside.

If Manager Han’s words were really true…

Whoooooosh-!

As soon as he opened the training ground door and entered, a gust of wind blew.

The one who created that gust was none other than Woo Ha-na.

“Uh…?”

Woo Ha-na was crossing the training ground at tremendous speed.

Explosive acceleration.

It was an ability she should have originally handled, but due to a fatal weakness, she had been unable to properly control until now.

The guild master stared blankly at Woo Ha-na, then shifted his gaze to Yujun, who was earnestly training her.

“Just how…”

He was left speechless.

Manager Han, who was watching from the side, nodded as if he understood his feelings.

The guild master was probably thinking the same thing as himself.

How is this even possible?

What the hell is going on here?

“Didn’t I tell you? I discovered a talent.”

10 minutes later.

Woo Ha-na, drenched in sweat, bowed her head to the guild master and Manager Han.

“The training went really well, didn’t it?”

“Thank you!”

Woo Ha-na was in quite an elevated state. It was natural. She was freely displaying her abilities that she had never experienced before.

“Go rest. You worked hard.”

“Yes!”

After confirming it was break time, the guild master strode over to Yujun.

“Trainer Kang.”

“Ah, Guild Master. Thank you for trusting me and entrusting this to me.”

“No, no. Rather, I’m grateful! Thank you for signing a contract with our guild! To think you’d solve Ha-na’s problem this quickly! I’m shocked! It’s something we couldn’t fix for such a long time…”

With explosive mana circulation now possible, she could properly handle her abilities, and even her original potential could be properly drawn out.

Confirming that reaction, Yujun smiled inwardly and asked.

“Are you satisfied?”

“Of course I’m satisfied!”

“Then I’d like to make one more proposal.”

Through Woo Ha-na, he had clearly shown what level of skill he possessed as a trainer.

‘Then now it’s the next step.’

“A proposal?”

“I’d like to try teaching Sky Guild’s Youth.”

“Our Youth…?”

It had already been over 10 years since guilds started putting effort into Youth development.

Each guild considered the Youth as their future and paid considerable attention to nurturing them.

Therefore, trainers who taught the Youth required considerable experience and skill.

As they demanded a lot from dedicated trainers, another custom emerged: generally, they wouldn’t entrust Youth to freelance trainers with short-term contracts.

Woo Ha-na’s case was an exception since existing trainers couldn’t solve it, so they entrusted her as a test.

So the guild master pondered with a troubled expression and made a different proposal.

“Hmm… How about officially joining the company instead?”

But to that proposal, Yujun just smiled silently and bowed his head.

It was a gesture of refusal.

The guild master immediately smiled awkwardly.

Not only the initiative but even the choice was in Yujun’s hands.

Yujun’s achievement was that remarkable.

When such a Yujun said he wanted to take charge of the Youth, from the guild master’s perspective, it was better to accept even if it meant breaking custom.

Yujun was a shining gem right now.

Having obtained a gem that others hadn’t yet recognized, shouldn’t he make good use of it?

In that sense, maintaining a good relationship with Yujun was the priority.

“Right, since we’ve signed a contract, it’s proper to have such discussions after the contract ends. But you see, we don’t entrust our guild’s Youth to external trainers. You know the reason, right?”

“Yes, I know.”

That’s why she had made the request.

The guild master let out a deep sigh at that confident attitude.

But hadn’t he seen it with his own two eyes.

How Woo Ha-na had changed.

He decided to bet on that possibility.

“Huu… Fine! First, I need to talk to the exclusive trainers. The exclusive trainers might feel uncomfortable about this.”

They might think their positions were being taken away.

Handing over their territory like this would be quite a blow to the pride of the guild’s trainers.

“Before that, let me ask you something. Did you make that proposal because there’s someone specific among the youth you want to take on?”

Yujun nodded and spoke the words he had been thinking.

Through Woo Ha-na, he had shown he could train a good youth member.

Then now it was time to do the opposite.

“Yes. I would like to try teaching the youth member with the lowest performance in Sky Guild.”

* * *

“I heard a new trainer is coming?”

“Could it be Baek Seong-ju? He’s a free agent right now.”

“Our guild would be worthy of Trainer Baek coming!”

Baek Seong-ju was one of the famous trainers rated as A-class, who had recently left his guild and was currently a free agent.

The guild he had been with was Dream Guild.

Dream Guild had recently recruited a new trainer, and as a result, Baek Seong-ju had to step down from his position.

If that Baek Seong-ju came, they could achieve quite good results.

His price was expensive, but what kind of guild was Sky Guild.

Wasn’t it a guild with excellent financial backing from its parent company.

“Our guild’s financial power is solid after all.”

“I heard it’s someone new?”

“New? No, a new trainer is coming?”

“Don’t we already have plenty of trainers? We wouldn’t need someone new.”

Sky Guild Training Grounds.

The training grounds were filled with many promising Awakened belonging to Sky Guild.

Especially those who had just graduated from the academy and were full of confidence.

Since they had entered Sky Guild, ranked in the 60s, as their first job.

Even if it wasn’t a major corporation, it was a mid-sized guild, so their self-esteem couldn’t help but be high.

Moreover, since they had been through numerous trainers at the academy, it was natural for them to look at a new trainer with suspicious eyes.

“A new trainer seems too unreliable.”

“Hey. It’s not just any newcomer. I heard they’re a freelance trainer? A freelancer trainer.”

“A freelancer? Why? Our trainers are also skilled people…”

“Don’t freelance trainers usually not teach youth members?”

“Then they’re probably not teaching all of us, right?”

The youth members were quite puzzled.

Being a freelancer meant they weren’t a new trainer belonging to Sky Guild.

Even so, the fact that news was spreading like this meant that freelance trainer was quite skilled.

They wouldn’t entrust all the youth to a freelancer, so they were probably planning to select a few to assign.

“I’m suddenly getting a bit excited.”

“They must have called them because they have tremendous skills, right?”

“But who is this trainer?”

While everyone was murmuring.

Woo Ha-na entered the training grounds.

Her face was quite flushed with excitement.

It had been exactly two training sessions.

Those two training sessions had changed everything.

It was on a completely different level from all the training she had received so far.

‘Had training ever been this exciting before?’

Training had always been something to worry about.

Woo Ha-na was an Awakened with a guaranteed future within the guild.

Even so, on days when she couldn’t properly keep up with training, she felt bad.

It was because she could feel her limitations.

But Yujun’s training was different.

‘I can immediately understand what he’s saying.’

Understanding is a very important element in training.

No matter how well you explain, if the person receiving training can’t understand, the training is essentially meaningless.

From that perspective, Kang Yu-jun’s training could be called ‘real’ training that Woo Ha-na had never experienced before.

Had learning ever been this enjoyable?

Had she ever felt changes happening immediately like this?

That’s why Woo Ha-na had come to the training grounds early in the morning today too.

Moreover, she had canceled all her schedules with personal trainers.

No, beyond canceling.

-[I want to terminate the contract.]

She had no intention of receiving their training anymore.

-[What’s suddenly going on? Shall we meet and talk?]

-[I found a better trainer.]

She could have said it more nicely, but there was no need to sugarcoat it.

‘I found a real trainer!’

When Woo Ha-na showed up early in the morning, everyone murmured in surprise.

“She should normally be receiving personal training at this time.”

“That’s strange? Did she come to learn from the freelance trainer?”

“I heard Ha-na has been hitting a wall lately too. She’s not young enough to be called a Youth anymore.”

Woo Ha-na was 21 years old.

She should have graduated from Youth and become a guild asset by now, but she had been stuck at a wall all this time.

Of course, that was only until yesterday.

Thanks to Yujun’s training, she had awakened her senses.

However, strictly speaking, she had only barely grasped a clue, so she absolutely needed Yujun to make this sensation truly her own.

With Yujun’s training alone, she could sprout wings.

That’s what Woo Ha-na believed.

Just then, someone entered the training ground.

“Good morning. I’m Trainer Kang Yu-jun, and I’ll be working with you all for a while.”

Kang Yu-jun.

The Sky Guild’s Youth members looked confused.

It was definitely a name and face they recognized.

As far as they knew, Kang Yu-jun wasn’t a trainer.

One of them cautiously raised their hand.

“Um, I have a question.”

“Yes, please ask.”

“Are you by any chance that Kang Yu-jun?”

“Yes, some of you might know me. I’m that Kang Yu-jun.”

At those words, everyone’s eyes and expressions twisted.

Kang Yu-jun was very famous.

As the epitome of a scammer, that is.

He had received tremendous support from the Promise Guild but ultimately failed to become a proper Awakened, so he could only be called a scammer.

And now that same Kang Yu-jun had come as a new trainer.

Everyone couldn’t help but look displeased.

Yujun understood their reaction.

‘Once we do some training.’

Those distrustful gazes would change to trusting ones.

Yujun approached the Awakened who had asked the question.

“What’s your name?”

“Kim Gyo-jun.”

“Kim Gyo-jun, do you perhaps not trust me?”

Yujun asked directly.

Kim Gyo-jun seemed flustered and couldn’t answer.

“Yes!”

The answer came from elsewhere.

It was a Youth who seemed to have quite a personality.

Judging by the blue light emanating from various parts of their body, they could be considered among the top tier of the Youth.

“I see. The rest of you probably feel the same way, right?”

Yujun looked around at the other Awakened. In the process, his eyes also met with Woo Ha-na’s.

Yujun smiled slightly.

Woo Ha-na already knew from experiencing his training firsthand.

‘She’s a living witness.’

Normally, Woo Ha-na wouldn’t have any reason to be here.

But she was here with the single-minded desire to receive training from Yujun.

Yujun liked that mindset.

And conveniently, there was also suitable teaching material right in front of him.

‘Perfect timing, Kim Gyo-jun.’

Kim Gyo-jun’s entire body was so full of cracks it wouldn’t be wrong to call him completely fractured.

‘He’d react no matter where I touch.’

Yujun could tell immediately.

This Kim Gyo-jun was currently the lowest grade among the Sky Guild Youth.

“No other words are necessary. Trainee Kim Gyo-jun. I’ll show you what kind of training method I use with trainees.”

Yujun immediately used his Awakened Scan skill.

-Scanning Awakened.

-Analyzing Awakened!

Soon information appeared.

-[Kim Gyo-jun] Overall Grade D-

-Physical: [E]

-Mental: [A]

-Awakened Ability: Weapon Enhancement

-Special Notes: High concentration

-Potential: B

-Awakened analysis completed.

-Current Awakened Analysis level is 1.

It was truly an analysis sheet that analyzed the Awakened itself.

‘Special traits and potential.’

Thanks to unlocking the Awakened Analysis skill, Yujun was able to grasp Kim Gyo-jun’s definite strengths.

‘His potential isn’t particularly high. But his concentration is quite remarkable.’

This could be considered the answer key to training.

The physical grade that must be grasped for training, plus the mental grade that allows checking mental state, awakening abilities, and even special traits.

Based on this, training couldn’t possibly fail.

‘It would be more foolish not to develop him.’

Yujun grinned.

‘More importantly, if his special trait is concentration…’

That meant he would definitely focus completely on whatever training he was given.

‘Plus, seeing that the Awakened Analysis level is 1.’

It meant the current Awakened Analysis was analyzed very simply. If the level increased, he would be able to analyze in much more detail than now.

‘Normally, strengths and weaknesses would also appear.’

At high levels, he would also be able to know strengths and weaknesses.

‘Physical grade is E. Mental grade is A though.’

The difference was far too great.

Awakened Scan, and Awakened Analysis.

Based on the analyzed Awakened’s information, Yujun decided how to teach Kim Gyo-jun.

“Please use your ability.”

Kim Gyo-jun hesitated for a moment, then drew his sword from his waist.

Shaaaaa-.

Instantly, mana burst forth from his body.

The mana was weak, but unlike Woo Ha-na, there were no problems with circulation methods or such.

However, as he drew up mana, the cracks began to spread even more.

‘Mana circulation is normal. But the mana is being used elsewhere.’

His weakness was his frail body.

‘He’s instinctively using mana to compensate for his weak physique.’

Yujun grasped his condition in an instant.

With the information available, understanding was very easy.

Of course, just because information is given doesn’t mean everyone can do this.

The experience of following an elite course for 13 years and receiving teachings from countless trainers.

Combined with his naturally born insight, it all came together to shine.

“Trainee Kim Gyo-jun, about that mana.”

Yujun approached Kim Gyo-jun closely and raised his index finger to poke precisely at the cracked area.

It was a hand movement imbued with a trace amount of mana.

Shaaaaa-!

Yujun’s mana traveled through his fingertip into Kim Gyo-jun’s body.

It was a very dangerous act, but for Yujun it was an easy task that posed no problem.

“Spread it out. Don’t clump it together.”

He had probably received training to clump mana together to strengthen his weak body.

But that wasn’t the correct answer.

Kim Gyo-jun’s body swayed for a moment.

He felt strange.

Oddly enough, his body was moving according to his words.

‘The cracks are disappearing.’

It meant this was the correct answer.

But there was still no glow.

It meant the problem was only temporarily resolved, not that it had become an advantage.

“Please use the swordsmanship you learned at the Academy.”

At the Academy for the Awakened, they receive education in handling various weapons.

Since Kim Gyo-jun had weapon enhancement abilities, he would have also received professional sword instruction.

Kim Gyo-jun obediently followed Yujun’s words.

For some reason, he felt like that’s what he should do.

Swish-!

The moment Kim Gyo-jun swung his sword.

Yujun took out a conductor’s baton he had brought separately and moved. The baton was thin, like one carried by an orchestra conductor.

‘Infusing mana into this.’

The baton precisely pressed against Kim Gyo-jun’s shoulder.

Then the mana spread throughout his body concentrated precisely on his shoulder, timed to match the sword’s striking moment.

Swiiiiish-!

The swordsmanship that had started slowly accelerated rapidly toward the end.

Whoosh-!

Kim Gyo-jun’s sword tore through the air.

“Huh…?”

Kim Gyo-jun was bewildered even after thrusting his sword. It was a power he had never experienced before.

Both the speed and force were astonishing. Had he really just accomplished that himself?

There was pain, but the situation was so overwhelming that he forgot even that pain.

“How….”

Confirming Kim Gyo-jun’s eyes filled with shock, Yujun looked around and said.

“Training will proceed in this manner.”

Everyone stood frozen in bewilderment at the completely unexpected result.

However, Yujun paid no mind to this and continued his explanation.

“And not all of you will receive my training. I only plan to teach exactly three people.”

At those words, the trainees’ eyes changed as they began to focus on Yujun.
