Transcendent Genius Trainer Episode 61
Yujun received the reward for this demon beast training project.
“500 million won in cash will be deposited directly into your account!”
The Management Bureau employee said.
Ding-!
As soon as he spoke, the smartphone immediately rang.
-KC Bank, deposit….
The large sum of 500 million won was deposited immediately.
‘Fast, for sure.’
Since it was a notice directly commissioned by the Management Bureau, the deposit was quite fast.
“And you’ll be awarded 5 performance points!”
These performance points were the most important score for trainers.
‘I heard you need to accumulate 30 points or more to get an S-class license.’
To earn 1 point, you had to perform high-difficulty commissions designated by the Management Bureau or maintain your license for a year without incidents after obtaining it.
‘They say it goes up by 1 point per year.’
Of course, even doing that, the maximum score you could get was exactly 15 points.
‘The remaining 15 points must be earned through performance points.’
After obtaining 30 points like that, you had to take a separate exam to receive an S-class license.
That’s how difficult it was to obtain an S-class license.
‘5 performance points are worth more than 500 million won in cash.’
The benefits you could get from obtaining an S-class license were considerable.
“But about that demon beast training. Could it be training that only Trainer Kang Yu-jun can perform?”
This demon beast training wasn’t basically aimed at taming the demon beast itself.
Demon beasts continuously emerge from the Tower.
The main purpose was to continuously tame the tameable demon beasts among them to use as the Management Bureau’s strength and South Korea’s strength.
That’s why demon beast training methods were needed.
“For now, it seems only I can do it.”
“Ah, yes, I understand. Confirmed.”
However, training wasn’t something that could be easily shared.
Even with the same training session, there were quite a few trainings that were difficult to implement without that specific trainer.
This was already within the Management Bureau’s consideration.
If it was training that only that trainer could perform, they just had to keep entrusting it to that trainer.
“Regarding this achievement, the Deputy Director would like to meet with you directly to hear about it. Would you have time?”
“Yes, let’s do that.”
Yujun nodded.
‘I didn’t expect to meet the Management Bureau’s Deputy Director this quickly.’
Until recently, it was something unimaginable.
“Then it would be okay to bring this demon beast along, right?”
“…Yes!”
The Management Bureau employee swallowed once.
It was a dangerous demon beast, but it would be fine if Yujun was there.
“Rather, it could be good performance!”
* * *
The trainers from each guild who witnessed Kang Yu-jun’s training returned to their headquarters and reported on this demon beast training.
“He’s a talent.”
“Honestly, I don’t want to admit it, but his skills are exceptional.”
There were still several trainers who didn’t like Yujun, but even they had no choice but to acknowledge Kang Yu-jun’s abilities.
“I even received training myself.”
“…Your dark circles have decreased. You’re frowning less too.”
The Guild Master who received the report was surprised to see Park Sang-gyu’s condition.
“The chronic headaches I’ve had for so long have disappeared.”
“That Kang Yu-jun trained you for that too?”
“Yes, Guild Master. That young colleague has extraordinary skills. To be honest.”
Park Sang-gyu was an exclusive trainer for one guild, but there were several areas where he felt limitations.
Due to his pride, he didn’t want to admit it and was strongly opposed to using freelance trainers, wanting to train the guild’s Awakened members all by himself.
But after seeing Kang Yu-jun, he had no choice but to let go of his stubbornness.
“I don’t know about other freelance trainers, but I think we can entrust our guild’s problems to Trainer Kang Yu-jun.”
“…Wait, if Trainer Park says that much, his skills must really be good?”
Trainers who suddenly rose to fame usually had a lot of hype around them.
Of course, the same was true for Awakened individuals.
“Yes.”
However, Yujun was actually in an undervalued state.
“To be honest, I don’t know how far he’ll grow.”
* * *
Jonggang, Yucheong Building.
This was where the Awakened Person Management Bureau was located.
Yujun put Fenrir in the Iron Blood Prison that the Management Bureau had prepared as a backup and moved.
Fenrir was quite docile.
‘At this rate, I could even ride Fenrir to get around if needed.’
Yujun took advantage of the travel time to continuously check information about Fenrir.
-The proficiency of Awakened Scan increases!
Thanks to that, his Awakened Scan proficiency increased quite a lot.
‘I definitely need to try various types of training.’
That included different species as well.
‘I can train beings that aren’t human too.’
Yujun realized that the Awakened training system had no limits.
‘Then I need to upgrade the knowledge I gained from the Tower of Infinity even further.’
While having various thoughts like this, he arrived at Yucheong Building.
Inside Yucheong Building.
The place Yujun was guided to was the VIP waiting room.
“Please wait a moment.”
And not long after, the Management Bureau employee returned.
“Let’s go, the Deputy Director is waiting for you.”
Deputy Director’s office.
Knock knock-.
As he entered with a knock, the giant Management Bureau Deputy Director So Gang-cheol greeted Yujun with a bright smile.
“Trainer Kang Yu-jun! I’m very pleased to meet you. You’ve accomplished something truly great!”
Then he extended a hand as big as a pot lid.
Yujun grasped that hand.
‘Oh.’
He felt tremendous power.
‘His completion level is considerable.’
All the Awakened he had encountered so far were people who needed training.
But So Gang-cheol was different.
‘Though blue light and cracks are positioned throughout his body.’
Yujun looked at So Gang-cheol’s abdomen with admiration.
There was a subtle golden light lingering there.
‘This is my first time seeing this. A part that needs absolutely no training.’
It was truly a part close to completion.
“Thank you so much, Trainer Kang. Trainer Kang has opened new horizons.”
“Not at all. I was lucky. Without the information from the senior trainers who attempted training first, it would have been difficult for me too.”
So Gang-cheol’s eyes widened at Yujun’s words.
During his Golden Youth days, he had definitely shown a more confident attitude than this.
No, it would have been fair to call it excessive confidence.
But such humility now.
He already knew from the reports he had received.
In this demon beast training, the previous trainers had achieved no results whatsoever.
The training logs only showed how they got injured.
Of course, he could have learned from how they failed.
But this training was entirely Yujun’s achievement.
It was something only possible because it was Kang Yu-jun.
“No, Trainer Kang Yu-jun. This achievement belongs entirely to Trainer Kang. Before Trainer Kang attempted it, we were at a crossroads of whether demon beast training itself was even possible or not.”
Until now, no trainer had been able to tame a demon beast.
“This isn’t limited to Korea. Currently, demon beast training research is being conducted worldwide, but no trainer has succeeded.”
The possibility was certainly there, but there had been no results yet.
No matter how much training was repeated, demon beasts wouldn’t be tamed, and they couldn’t be used as full combat power as expected.
But Yujun had proven it.
That demon beasts were beings that could be trained.
“This is something only our Korea has accomplished in the entire world.”
At those words, Yujun was also a little surprised inside.
‘I didn’t know this. To think it was a world first.’
He had thought there would be trainers in other countries who had succeeded in demon beast training.
But to think it was a world first.
But soon after thinking about it, he seemed to understand the reason.
‘It would certainly not be easy without the Awakened training system.’
The wildness of demon beasts was not something that could be easily controlled.
“Could I take a look?”
So Gang-cheol was inwardly very curious.
“Honestly, it’s hard to believe. Even after hearing the story.”
He couldn’t imagine it.
That such a powerful demon beast would listen to human words.
“I understand. I’ll show you right away.”
Yujun took Fenrir out of the Iron Blood Prison.
“Grung-.”
It was exactly the demon beast from the deputy director’s memory.
“It seems bigger…?”
It was a size that didn’t look like an ordinary Hell Hound.
“Yes, that’s right. This demon beast is not a Hell Hound. It appears to be a different type of demon beast.”
Yujun didn’t mention that this demon beast was Fenrir, a legendary-class demon beast.
‘The Management Bureau hasn’t decided what to do with this demon beast yet.’
There was no need to mention it.
“Then… you’ve trained a demon beast stronger than a Hell Hound.”
Deputy Director So Gang-cheol carefully gestured to Yujun.
Yujun nodded and gently patted Fenrir.
“Fen.”
“Grrrrrrrrrung-!”
Fen was quite wary of So Gang-cheol.
The power that Deputy Director So Gang-cheol possessed was the kind that any demon beast would be wary of.
‘Golden light is something I’m seeing for the first time too.’
So Gang-cheol was that powerful.
‘Even if Fenrir charged at him right now, he could subdue it with his bare hands.’
Nevertheless, So Gang-cheol was cautious.
“Fen, paw.”
Yujun quickly extended his hand to Fen.
Then Fen confidently extended his massive front paw.
“Ooooooh.”
So Gang-cheol was impressed.
“It’s been trained!”
“Roll over.”
Swish-.
“Lie down.”
Thud-!
Fen was not only smart but also a demon beast with quick perception.
That’s why he understood exactly what Yujun wanted.
Deputy Director So Gang-cheol was quite satisfied with this sight.
“Would it be difficult to share the method of how you did this?”
If other Trainers could also do this demon beast training, the Management Bureau could create new positions.
“Yes, I’d like to help, but this is related to my technique, so it’s difficult to share.”
However, the deputy director smiled and nodded.
“That’s enough. The fact that our Korea has such a Trainer is itself a great strength.”
From the Management Bureau’s perspective, just having the only Trainer capable of demon beast training was quite a joyful thing.
“Please call on me anytime.”
“Ooooh…”
‘I need to accumulate performance points anyway.’
There were still quite a few Achievements he hadn’t accomplished yet.
‘Rather, this is a situation where I should be asking for favors.’
Instead, he could receive great benefits from the Management Bureau and even get opportunities to try various training.
From Yujun’s perspective, it could be considered a significant gain.
“Thank you so much, Trainer Kang.”
Deputy Director So Gang-cheol expressed his gratitude politely.
“Well, it’s not quite adequate as compensation for this matter, but if you have any requests, please feel free to ask. If it’s something I can resolve within my authority, I’ll help you.”
Since he wanted to maintain a good relationship with Kang Yu-jun, he was prepared to fulfill any request he could handle in addition to the official reward announced by the Management Bureau.
“Then… could you perhaps connect me with a guild that specializes in ranged combat, specifically archers?”
“…An Archer Guild?”
The deputy director’s expression hardened for a moment.
“Don’t tell me you’re planning to train them?”
“Yes.”
“Why choose such a difficult path…?”
Awakened abilities are divided into several categories.
Close-range, long-range, support…
Among these, close-range is the easiest to teach, while long-range is the most difficult.
Therefore, trainers didn’t prefer teaching ranged Awakened individuals.
“I don’t consider it a difficult path.”
So Gang-cheol was quite pleased with Yujun’s answer.
It was full of spirit and confidence.
If a path that others avoided due to difficulty wasn’t difficult for him, there was no reason not to choose it.
“Understood.”
Of course, Yujun’s reason for choosing the Archer Guild was much simpler.
‘There’s a skill I can obtain through training ranged Awakened individuals.’
He could acquire that skill upon achieving the Achievement.
‘And ranged training is something I’m good at too.’
When playing Tower of Infinity, he had mainly trained ranged Awakened individuals.
That was what came easiest to Yujun.
S-rank and above ranged Awakened individuals that everyone said were difficult to train.
But Yujun had easily trained them and made them part of his division.
‘So there’s no need to be picky.’
A trainer can only grow by teaching various types of Awakened individuals.
If you swallow what’s sweet and spit out what’s bitter, you’ll inevitably hit your limits quickly.
‘And this is work that other trainers don’t prefer.’
To be precise, it was work that other trainers found burdensome and therefore didn’t prefer.
So he intended to do it himself.
‘Because I can do it.’
“That’s good then. It’s not a difficult matter. Archer Guilds are always requesting us to find good trainers for them.”
But for a trainer to actually want the connection instead – from the deputy director’s perspective, this was something he could easily accommodate.
“Then I’ll just take care of this for you. This is actually something we should be asking you to do.”
So Gang-cheol said with a gentle smile.
“Please tell me what you really want.”
‘This is what I really want though.’
Yujun thought for a moment before speaking.
“Then could I keep the demon beast with me? Officially, I mean.”
“…!”
At those words, So Gang-cheol looked at him with moved eyes.
“You’re saying you’ll personally take charge of that demon beast! Actually, I was wondering what to do about it. It’s been trained, but that’s something only Trainer Kang can handle.”
This was also something they should have asked him to do.
“My goodness…!”
This spirit of sacrifice.
What was this admirable mindset?
He couldn’t say such things unless they came from deep within his heart.
“To show such consideration for the Management Bureau…”
He must truly love his country.
“Thank you, Trainer Kang Yu-jun. I’ll entrust the demon beast to you. And please make just one real request!”
Yujun was puzzled by those words but soon smiled.
‘He’s viewing me too favorably.’
Yujun had simply wanted to satisfy his personal interests.
But there was no reason to voice this out loud.
If the second-in-command of the Management Bureau viewed him favorably, there couldn’t be anything better.
Yujun took a moment to choose his words before slowly opening his mouth.
“Then that request is…”
