Transcendent Genius Trainer Episode 63
Shaaaaaaak-.
Yujun’s body, mounted on Fen, was dyed in darkness.
In this state, to other people’s eyes, both Yujun and Fen would appear as pitch-black darkness.
“Did it have this kind of effect?”
“Grrrrrung-!”
Fen let out a small cry.
“You’re saying it’s your power? As expected, a legendary-grade Demon Beast is different.”
Yujun admired it and tried instructing Fen to move.
Whoosh-!
The feeling of running through the darkness was quite pleasant.
‘This way, I won’t need to only move in the evening.’
If he ran while in a darkened state, he could run without worrying about the gazes of those around him.
“Let’s go to Goyang City.”
He planned to meet Kim Gyu-cheol before going to the One-Shot Guild.
* * *
Geumgang Forge in Goyang City.
Clang-! Clang-!
Kim Gyu-cheol was hammering away in front of a hot furnace.
Ever since Yujun had saved the forge, he hadn’t left this forge and continued hammering away.
He only went out briefly when he needed to obtain materials, devoting all his energy to the forge.
“Because training is dangerous.”
He wanted to make equipment that would help with Yujun’s training.
The staff, which could be called his signature equipment, was completed.
Moreover, Yujun didn’t go around wearing armor or anything like that.
A neat suit with a coat.
That was Yujun’s usual attire.
“Then I can make something to wear underneath.”
He thought that making thin armor to wear underneath could increase defense.
“From now on, he’ll be teaching S-rank Awakened.”
To Kim Gyu-cheol, Kang Yu-jun wasn’t simply an A-rank Trainer.
A great Trainer whose skills reached the heavens.
If that was the case, the Awakened who would receive training would also be endlessly strong and dangerous.
Clang-!
“You must stay safe.”
At least he could repay his debt by solving that problem.
So Kim Gyu-cheol devoted his heart and soul to making thin armor.
Clang-! Clang-!
“Gyu-cheol.”
Just then, Yujun’s voice was heard.
“?”
Clearly there was no one around.
“What? Am I hearing things now…?”
Swoosh-.
Suddenly, a massive Demon Beast emerged from the darkness.
“!”
Startled, Kim Gyu-cheol was about to swing his hammer.
“It’s me. And this is Fen.”
“Teacher!”
Kim Gyu-cheol looked at the Demon Beast in shock.
“Don’t tell me… you trained it? A Demon Beast?”
Yujun chuckled and answered.
“I was lucky.”
“My goodness, this massive Demon Beast…”
Kim Gyu-cheol cautiously extended his hand.
Then Fen opened its jaws wide.
“Gasp.”
He hastily withdrew his hand.
“Come to think of it, what were you doing?”
“Ah, I was making armor suitable for you to wear, Teacher. I’m adding lightness to solid defense so it can be worn under your usual clothing. It’s not finished yet, but it will be completed soon!”
Yujun looked at the ultra-lightweight armor Kim Gyu-cheol was making.
“Oh.”
Shaaaaaaak-.
-[Ultra-lightweight Armor] Grade: S
-Special Features: Extremely light. High defense.
It was armor that possessed both lightness and high defense simultaneously.
‘Now I can even see the special features?’
Previously, Yujun could only check the grade of the Vajra staff.
But now it was different.
Along with the grade, he could now read the information that the artifact possessed.
‘I’ve grown.’
Yujun stroked Fen’s head.
Then he spoke to Kim Gyu-cheol.
“I’m already grateful just for the Vajra staff.”
“Not at all! Training is dangerous! I thought you should at least have armor since you could get hurt!”
“Thank you.”
“By any chance, what brings you here today? Is it perhaps an artifact for that Demon Beast?”
If it was an artifact for a Demon Beast, there would be things like collars or Demon Beast-exclusive armor.
“No, it’s something else. I have a new commission.”
Yujun explained about the Archer Guild.
Then he picked up a smart pad and began drawing.
Swish-. Swish-. Swish-.
“…What is this?”
“It’s an artifact that becomes a bow when you inject mana into it.”
“…”
What Yujun had drawn was a sphere.
It was a sphere slightly smaller than a baseball, and he had even drawn effects that looked like mana rising from it.
At the very simple drawing, Kim Gyu-cheol opened his eyes wide and looked at Yujun.
His expression said an explanation was needed.
“So you inject mana here and…”
Kim Gyu-cheol’s pupils shook at Yujun’s explanation.
It was a considerably high-level artifact.
Kim Gyu-cheol was a blacksmith who had just started working at the forge.
“Will I be able to do it?”
At Kim Gyu-cheol’s question, Yujun spoke with emphasis.
“I wouldn’t ask you to do something you can’t do.”
It was a difficult request, that was true.
But this was Kim Gyu-cheol who had made an SS-grade Vajra staff from his very first creation.
‘Rather, there would be no meaning in making something easy.’
At those words, Kim Gyu-cheol regained his confidence.
“…I’ll try it!”
“Can you do it in a day?”
“…Excuse me?”
Kim Gyu-cheol was momentarily flustered.
It was already difficult to make, but to make it in just one day?
However, Kim Gyu-cheol didn’t make any excuses.
He would try it first.
If he tried and it didn’t work, it wouldn’t be too late to say so then.
“I’m counting on you.”
“I’ll, I’ll try!”
* * *
Clang-!
Kim Gyu-cheol first took out the materials.
“Place the magic stone and…”
Magic stones, the most valuable material in the Tower, are used effectively when making various artifacts.
And likewise, he took out blue steel that only comes from the Tower.
He planned to make the sphere Yujun had requested using this blue steel and magic stone as the core.
“Hmmmm.”
A picture gradually formed in his mind.
What Yujun had drawn was a simple picture, but thinking differently, it was no different from giving him the idea itself, which was both alpha and omega.
A sphere-shaped artifact that creates a form by injecting mana.
Swish-. Swoosh-.
The design took shape in Kim Gyu-cheol’s mind.
Because it was so difficult, his concentration was actually considerable.
He had to pour everything he had into it.
Limited experience.
However, Kim Gyu-cheol’s innate skill completed the blueprint in an instant.
“This should work.”
Kim Gyu-cheol, who had completed the blueprint, struck with his hammer.
Clang-! Clang-! Clang-!
As he brought down the hammer, his eyes suddenly widened.
“Training… I see!”
Why would Yujun have entrusted him with such a high-difficulty commission?
“To give me training…”
Kim Gyu-cheol, who had awakened the Geumgang Forge and even established a new home in Goyang City, was in a somewhat stable state of mind.
His immediate goal was nothing but creating equipment for Trainer Kang Yu-jun.
He had no greater goals and his direction was unclear.
Now Kang Yu-jun was providing him with a new direction.
Through this difficult artifact creation commission, he was helping him focus his mind and providing training!
“As expected…”
Clang-!
-You have received a growth bonus from Awakened Kim Gyu-cheol!
-You have received 30P.
-Training has been completed!
-Training score 6 / 10
-You have received points!
-You have received 50P!
“?”
Yujun was confused.
‘Why did training activate?’
Yujun was watching Kim Gyu-cheol intently.
Kim Gyu-cheol swinging his hammer was emitting quite brilliant blue light.
There were deep cracks in his shoulders and waist, but since they wouldn’t be fixed immediately, he was just observing for now.
With his current skills, attempting corrections wouldn’t yield much benefit, so it was much better to maximize strengths rather than fix weaknesses right now.
So he had been quietly observing, but suddenly an alarm appeared saying training had been completed.
‘Could it be.’
The commission Yujun had given had functioned like training.
‘It’s because he’s a blacksmith.’
Yujun grinned.
‘I gained an unexpected benefit. In a way, this could also be considered training. I didn’t actively intervene, but I did provide direction.’
The artifact Yujun had drawn for him certainly required using all of his talents.
‘I did draw it rather roughly for him. Explaining it verbally is easy, but actually making it requires deep design work in various aspects.’
Wasn’t Kim Gyu-cheol from the Geumgang Kim Family and inheriting the abilities of that family’s first Awakened?
Since he thought someone of that caliber should naturally be able to handle it, he had spoken without much worry.
‘You should be able to handle this much.’
Clang-!
After investing a full day like that, Kim Gyu-cheol came out carrying something.
Shaaaaaaak-.
In his hands was a freshly made round artifact.
It was an artifact with exactly the same shape as what Yujun had drawn and shown him.
“It’s complete, Teacher. This is my masterpiece. I’ve incorporated that core function you mentioned.”
Guuuung-.
When Yujun grasped the orb with his hand, he felt power.
‘Magic stone.’
As he felt that power, a considerably heavy sensation spread throughout his entire body.
‘This is better than I thought?’
He hadn’t expected him to create something this good.
-Artifact Orb [Grade: S]
‘Wow.’
S-grade right off the bat.
This is what real talent looks like.
‘Just a little nurturing and it blooms beautifully with fragrance.’
“Please try using it!”
Yujun gripped the artifact.
“Its name is Orb.”
Kim Gyu-cheol grinned.
“And as you mentioned, if you just inject mana…”
Shaaaaaaaak-.
“It transforms into any form.”
Not just a bow.
It was an artifact that could transform into any form as desired.
Yujun infused mana into the artifact to shape it into a bow.
“What I pictured in my head came out exactly as imagined?”
“…No. That requires creating each part directly through mana control, which is actually its biggest drawback….”
Kim Gyu-cheol, who was about to explain further, looked at Yujun in bewilderment.
“You just… made it.”
It wasn’t an artifact that changed according to what you pictured in your mind.
You had to inject mana and control it through the orb.
Since that controlling process was quite difficult, Kim Gyu-cheol had planned to mention it when Yujun injected mana and tried to shape it.
But a bow shape just appeared.
“It was easy though.”
At Yujun’s words, Kim Gyu-cheol let out a hollow laugh and nodded.
As expected, he was as expected.
“You’ve even trained the artifact, haven’t you.”
Mana control was essential for training.
So it wasn’t particularly difficult for Yujun.
Rather, Yujun was impressed by Kim Gyu-cheol’s skill.
‘An even better artifact than I had in mind came out.’
Yujun looked at Kim Gyu-cheol and praised him.
“A much better artifact than what I wanted came out. This isn’t the level of someone who just started blacksmithing.”
“No, haha.”
Kim Gyu-cheol laughed awkwardly.
Shaaaaaaak-.
Yujun immediately transformed the artifact into various forms.
It became a bow, then a sword, and soon converted into a staff.
‘I haven’t taught many people though.’
He thought Kim Gyu-cheol could reach S-rank first.
Even surpassing Woo Ha-na, Lee Su-yeon, and even Im Seok-jae.
“Among the Awakened I’ve taught, your growth rate is the fastest. Gyu-cheol, well done.”
At Yujun’s words, Kim Gyu-cheol shook his head vigorously.
“No. This is all thanks to your training, teacher. With this training, I feel like I’ve moved two steps forward. It was really tough though….”
Dark circles had deepened under his eyes in just one day.
But his eyes were sparkling brightly.
“Thank you for the good training! I’ll contact you immediately once the armor is completed!”
Yujun immediately picked up his phone.
“I have something to give you.”
Ding-!
“Sent it. Check it out.”
Kim Gyu-cheol, who checked his phone, began counting the amount.
“Huh…?”
One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand, hundred thousand, million….
Hundred million.
It was a whopping 500 million won.
“Why suddenly such a large amount…?”
To Kim Gyu-cheol who was quite flustered, Yujun said nonchalantly.
“Material costs.”
