Transcendent Genius Trainer Episode 72

“….”

“….”

The Manager and Director fell silent.

In fact, both of them were thinking the same thing.

Those who hold S-rank licenses have a distinctive aura about them.

This is true whether they’re Awakened or Trainers.

Those who have reached high levels all emanate an aura.

An aura of strength.

This strength doesn’t simply mean physical force.

It was the strength gained when reaching the level of a master in any field.

Such an aura could be felt from Yujun.

“But what’s puzzling is, who on earth did he learn this training method from?”

Seo Yu-ri pressed her forehead.

“I heard he only recently switched to being a Trainer. He only got his license not too long ago, right?”

He became A-rank at the same time as obtaining his license.

Therefore, his career wasn’t very long compared to his rank.

In addition to that.

“Of course, he was a Youth at Promise Guild until recently, so he would have had experience, but it’s still puzzling.”

It was even more puzzling since he hadn’t gained trainer experience during his Youth days.

“Surely he didn’t… come this far on his own.”

Self-taught.

Nothing was more difficult than being self-taught in the training industry.

To teach others, one must first receive teaching from others.

Since it’s fundamentally about training Awakened individuals, understanding many different Awakened was necessary.

“Each Awakened has different abilities and physical conditions. To teach such Awakened, you’d need as much information as possible, and to acquire training skills based on that information, you’d have no choice but to attend an academy.”

Academies already had information about countless Awakened, as well as the information needed to teach them.

Self-teaching clearly has its limits.

Teaching without any information could injure the Awakened. There were many cases where the Trainer themselves got hurt.

“I also tried to become a Trainer through self-teaching at first.”

However, Seo Yu-ri also felt the limitations of self-teaching.

Moreover, after injuring one Awakened, her will to self-teach was completely broken.

“There’s no record of him attending an academy.”

“I heard he went straight to Sky Guild right after being expelled from Promise.”

“….”

That meant.

“…It might really be self-taught.”

This could only be seen as self-taught.

It meant these were Yujun’s own training skills that he had mastered by himself without learning from others.

“Mmmmm.”

Seo Yu-ri let out a small groan.

“Perhaps I… have been thinking wrong all this time.”

She continued with a sigh.

“I think I’ve been drawing lines. That what an A-rank Trainer can do is different from what an S-rank Trainer can do. But that wasn’t right. By drawing such lines, you can never become a higher-ranked Trainer.”

She was convinced after seeing Yujun.

Did he really think about whether he was A-rank or S-rank when training?

Probably not.

He probably only thought about better training.

“It’s probably a thought that came from being self-taught. If he had attended an academy, he would have thought like me.”

Better training.

He had to give his all to draw out all the power the Awakened possessed and further turn the subject’s potential into actual ability.

When thinking only about that wasn’t even enough, dividing things into possible and impossible from the start was wrong.

Seo Yu-ri took a deep breath.

She closed her eyes and erased all the limitations she had drawn in her mind.

Whether it would work or not could only be known by trying.

“From tomorrow, I think I’ll have to pour out everything I have.”

Then she clenched her fist with firm resolve.

“This won’t do.”

She had thought Hong Jun-yong’s training was the real deal.

If she held back in this situation, she might not even reach where Hong Jun-yong was.

If she wasn’t careful, she might not even get the opportunity and end up handing it over to Kang Yu-jun.

* * *

“Quite exhausting.”

Yujun stretched his tingling body.

He had taught a total of 7 Awakened today.

Since they all had to achieve 10 points, he couldn’t let his concentration slip.

As a result, all seven Awakened received perfect training scores of 10 points, but Yujun inevitably became quite exhausted.

-You gain stats due to the effect of the Incubation skill!

-Your stats increase significantly!

All seven who received training from Yujun not only scored 10 points but also showed considerable growth.

Therefore, Yujun was able to properly receive the effects of the Incubation skill.

“Normally, I would have fallen asleep by now.”

He still had some strength left to endure.

Shaaaaak-.

Yujun repeatedly clenched and unclenched his fist, checking his sensations.

Then he smiled at the meaningful change.

“It’s tough, but if stats come in at this rate, I have no choice but to endure the difficulty.”

Tomorrow, with these stats, he would be able to train at least one more person.

Yujun’s stats, which had begun accumulating steadily, had already risen to a level similar to that of a B-rank Awakened.

“Going from non-Awakened to B-rank Awakened level is incredible.”

It was quite a satisfying result.

Yujun sat in his chair and closed his eyes for a moment.

“I’m tired, but one thing has become certain.”

Teaching ranged-type Awakened was something he had only done in the Tower of Infinity.

‘I had taught ranged-type Awakened before that.’

But they weren’t full-fledged ranged-type Awakened, so this could be considered his first proper attempt.

“I can easily teach up to A-rank Awakened without much effort.”

Yujun smiled.

“I can utilize all the knowledge I accumulated in the Tower of Infinity.”

As the Awakened training system grows, it will become possible to reach even higher levels.

[Insight]

-Ranged-type Awakened Training 8 / 10

“Two more to go.”

If he taught just two more people, he could obtain Insight.

Once he gained Insight, he would be able to see things he had never seen before.

Yujun then checked his accumulated points.

-Current Points: 810P

“Even after spending quite a bit on skill awakening, I still have 800 points left.”

It was quite encouraging.

“Training ranged-type Awakened is definitely difficult.”

All seven people Yujun trained had problems stemming from the unique sensations of ranged-type Awakened.

‘Without experience, it’s impossible to teach these problems.’

Even if he tried to teach, he couldn’t properly address the problems they were facing.

That’s why Yujun had to constantly draw upon his experience.

So training points inevitably accumulated.

“The problem is here.”

Except for Lee Dong-seok, all the Awakened he taught today were of low rank.

He had deliberately focused on training those who were relatively easier to teach.

‘I did that because it was the first day and I wanted to review the training sessions.’

But even this turned out to be no easy task.

“Tomorrow will definitely be harder than today…”

Still, his stats had increased through the Incubation skill, and he had roughly figured out the knack.

“Tomorrow might be more manageable. I’ll awaken Insight too, and I plan to use artifacts I didn’t use today.”

Seuruk-.

Yujun took out the artifact orb that Kim Gyu-cheol had made for him.

Shaaaaaaaak-.

The artifact orb instantly transformed according to Yujun’s mana.

“Since their awakening abilities are different, the weapons they handle are different too. To help them understand more clearly, I ultimately need to show them.”

Today, Yujun taught them through explanations using verbal correction and the Geumgang Staff.

In other words, he taught while carrying a kind of penalty.

‘But from tomorrow, I can show them.’

Lee Dong-seok used a sniper rifle, and another Awakened used a bow.

And there were various types of bows too.

Longbows and shortbows, of course, and crossbows could also be included in the same category.

Besides that, there were also Awakened who created and shot arrows without bows, or used mana bullets.

So Yujun planned to use the artifact orb according to their awakening abilities to demonstrate in a way that would be easier to understand.

“Let’s try one more thing that could create synergy.”

Simply showing them would have some effect, but Yujun was thinking of going one step further.

“I’ll unlock a skill.”

Yujun was planning to spend points to unlock a new skill.

“Awakened Training System.”

-Opening the Awakened Training System.

He opened the Awakened Training System and entered the skill window.

-Synchronization Lv.1

-Required Points: 500P

-Skill Acquisition Condition: S-rank Awakened Training

It was an additional skill for Lv.2 skills and also a conditional skill.

The condition was S-rank Awakened Training, which was actually a skill that couldn’t be learned individually while having Lv.2 skills.

‘I have experience training S-rank Awakened while being Lv.2.’

Yujun immediately acquired the Synchronization skill.

-You have learned the Synchronization skill!

Shaaaak-!

The Synchronization skill was a skill that synchronized with the training target to mimic their movements.

‘It’s a skill optimized for understanding the training target.’

Using this Synchronization skill, he would be able to quickly identify the target’s problems through his body.

‘So it’s easier to fix them.’

Not only that, he could also input his own movements directly to the training target.

‘They’re ranged-type Awakened where precise movements for angles, mana circulation, and reading the flow of wind are important. For them, there’s no skill better than this Synchronization.’

Yujun had used this Synchronization skill quite well even when playing the Tower of Infinity.

Having learned the skill, Yujun immediately reached out his hand.

“There’s one more thing I need to use in earnest starting from tomorrow’s training.”

Following Yujun’s command, darkness poured out from his hand.

“Fen.”

“Grrrung-!”

Yujun was planning to utilize Fen in training as well.

Fen was a Demon Beast.

Training using an actual Demon Beast would be much more vivid than training using VR machines.

“It would be a waste to use him just as a mount.”

He had been planning to use Fen this way from when he first brought him.

“Grung-!”

“Fen’s abilities are particularly perfect for dealing with ranged-type Awakened.”

Fen was a considerably fast Demon Beast.

As such, he could provide suitable training for ranged-type Awakened.

“Dodge, block, and counterattack.”

He would allow them to gain practical experience that couldn’t be obtained through VR machine training or target practice available in the Training Ground.

‘For short-term growth, practical experience is the best.’

Originally, this training was one of the training systems in the Tower of Infinity, but even in the game, it had the disadvantage of only being available after entering the Tower of Infinity.

‘But if I train the Demon Beast like this, there’s no need to enter the Tower.’

Yujun petted Fen’s head.

Fen was following Yujun better than before.

“But is it okay that I haven’t fed you even once?”

He had tried to feed him meat and such, but Fen refused the meat.

‘I heard Demon Beasts are omnivorous.’

But Fen wasn’t a simple Demon Beast.

The legendary Demon Beast Fenrir.

So what he ate must surely be different too.

“What do you eat, Fen?”

Sniff sniff-.

Fen sniffed around and soon showed interest in Yujun’s artifact orb.

“Don’t tell me you… eat magic stones?”

“Aooooo-!”

At those words, Fen wagged his tail as if excited.

Yujun couldn’t help but let out a hollow laugh.

“Your food expenses are going to be too expensive, aren’t they?”

“Aooo-!”

Fen let out a small cry.

At that sight, Yujun chuckled and patted Fen’s head.

“That’s right, if you earn your keep in this training, I’ll buy you some magic stones.”

“Aoooooo-!”

Seeing Fen burning with motivation, Yujun’s eyes also lit up.

“Tomorrow is going to be fun.”

The first day had been just a taste of what was to come.
