Transcendent Genius Trainer Episode 92
“Yujun!”
Thunder Guild had been working on a new project recently.
Project: Enhancement.
To raise the level of their affiliated Awakened, Thunder Guild dispatched sales teams to Korea’s raid hotspots.
There are countless towers in raid hotspots.
Thunder Guild increased the intensity from the existing once-daily raids to twice-daily raids, and provided correspondingly large rewards.
Additionally, promotions were planned for those with good performance.
Uijeongbu, Gate Front.
Sales Team 2 had come to this Gate Front, and Im Seok-jae was included among them.
“Have you been well? It’s been a while.”
“We just saw each other recently.”
As he said, it hadn’t been that long.
But to Im Seok-jae, it felt like quite a while.
“Why are you here? Weren’t you supposed to be at One Shot?”
“The One Shot matter is finished. Has the rumor already spread that far?”
“That Hong Jun-yong person, I heard he conquered even the Tower of Winds. The rumor is spreading throughout the industry right now.”
Im Seok-jae spoke excitedly.
“I was lucky.”
At Yujun’s humble attitude, Im Seok-jae shook his head vigorously.
“The Tower of Winds is the graveyard of ranged Awakened. Hong Jun-yong conquered that place, and he even gave an interview saying it was possible thanks to your training.”
Hong Jun-yong was someone who would never give such interviews.
“Hunternet is in an uproar too. Did you see Hong Jun-yong’s expression?”
They said that bratty Awakened had a quite affectionate expression when talking about Kang Yu-jun, even politely adding the title “teacher.”
“I saw it too… Wow, that interview was really something else. How on earth did you do it?”
“Me? I just did what I always do.”
At those words, Im Seok-jae’s eyes changed.
“Then… I have no choice but to acknowledge it.”
Im Seok-jae was also someone who had been properly changed by Yujun’s “doing what he always does.”
“This worked out perfectly.”
Yujun contacted him as soon as he learned that Im Seok-jae was here.
‘I couldn’t do training before going to One Shot.’
-Seok-jae.
-I’ll come right now.
Even though he just called his name, he replied immediately as if he had been waiting, and came running this quickly.
“I was waiting for your contact.”
Saying that while emanating mana, Yujun narrowed his eyes as he looked at Im Seok-jae.
‘He has passion. But something feels different.’
Shaaaaa-.
“I repeated the training session you created for me every day and used the VR Machine too. I went on tower raids frequently as well.”
‘Hmm.’
Yujun was impressed as he looked at Im Seok-jae.
‘He really worked hard.’
Shaaaaa-.
The cracks that were visible before had almost all disappeared.
-Mind’s Eye is activated!
Even with Mind’s Eye, the cracks had greatly diminished and the blue light had become much clearer.
-[Im Seok-jae] Overall Grade A-
-Physical: [A]
-Mental: [A]
-Stats: [Strength 48/65] [Stamina 50/65] [Agility 35/65]
-Awakened Ability: Superhuman Strength
-Potential: High
-Special Notes: Overload
‘It was a somewhat lacking training session. But his stats are high and his stat limits are high too.’
He probably modified it to suit himself better while repeatedly doing that training session.
‘Seok-jae’s status window, which wasn’t visible back then, is now clear.’
Seok-jae’s grades, which had all appeared as question marks, were now all visible without exception.
‘There’s a special note.’
Looking at the word “overload” written in Im Seok-jae’s special notes, Yujun let out a contemplative sound.
“Hmm. You look like your body can’t handle your abilities right now.”
Right now, Im Seok-jae had what anyone would consider a considerably good physique.
In fact, Im Seok-jae had been hearing from people in his guild and acquaintances he met after a long time that his body looked good.
-Your physical condition looks good?
However, only Yujun spoke negatively about it.
And that was accurate.
“…No, how on earth did you know that? Everyone else said my physical condition looked the best it’s been recently.”
Seok-jae’s eyes widened greatly.
As expected of Kang Yu-jun.
His training was the truth.
“Blunt weapons. You seem to be focusing too much on them?”
On top of that, he immediately identified the cause.
“…That’s right. Thanks to your training, I became able to exert my full power, and by converting my strength into blunt weapons, I could increase my destructive power even more.”
But that’s where the problem arose.
His abilities kept getting stronger, but his body couldn’t keep up with that pace.
As a result, his attack speed had decreased too much.
“Show me the weapon you’re using now.”
After seeing the weapon, Yujun shook his head disapprovingly.
‘It’s not the right size for Seok-jae. Too big. And the material is mediocre, but it absorbs a lot of mana.’
-Scanning artifact!
-Magic Stone Steel Blunt Weapon [C]
-Special Feature: Gigantic
After scanning the artifact, Yujun immediately gestured to Im Seok-jae.
“Want to try swinging it once?”
“Got it.”
Swooooooosh-!
Im Seok-jae swung the blunt weapon with all his might.
Shaaaaa-.
Then it became clearly visible.
To produce great power, he concentrated a considerable amount of mana into the blunt weapon at once and let it flow out in an instant.
‘Power is leaking.’
Not only was power leaking, but his body was also swaying.
As a result, even his body’s balance collapsed.
‘His lower body is bearing all the force. His body is receiving additional burden trying to control that lower body.’
Because of that, considerable load was placed on his waist and shoulders.
‘Since he has superhuman strength as an awakened ability, his physical capabilities are quite good. That’s why he’s enduring it.’
Normally, if he were to collapse, he would have collapsed long ago.
‘I didn’t expect this.’
Thunder Guild was quite a good guild.
Who would have thought such a guild would provide equipment like this.
“Your guild doesn’t give you good equipment. That weapon is ruining you. Just changing weapons would make your physical condition much better than now.”
At Yujun’s words, Im Seok-jae made an awkward expression.
“I did make a request, but they wouldn’t give it to me.”
“Why?”
“Well…”
His current equipment already had considerable power, and Im Seok-jae wasn’t an overwhelming ace within the guild.
So they couldn’t provide him with expensive equipment.
“My position within the guild has gotten a bit worse.”
At those words, Yujun smiled as if pleased.
‘If Thunder Guild is acting like this.’
Yujun was thinking of including Im Seok-jae in his team as well.
‘Im Seok-jae would feel relatively less sorry too.’
Yujun immediately finished the training check in his head.
“You’ll need a new session. And.”
He immediately took out the equipment he had prepared for Im Seok-jae.
“Use this.”
It was a blunt weapon made of expensive-looking materials with an overwhelming size just from looking at it.
“Th, this is?”
“Equipment for you.”
“Equipment… for me?”
“Right, I’m going to become an S-rank Awakened now. Can I just use any equipment?”
“….”
S-rank Awakened.
After advancing to upper A-rank, Im Seok-jae also began dreaming of S-rank.
But he could clearly see his limits.
That’s why he was desperately seeking Yujun’s training.
“Do you really think… I can become an S-rank Awakened?”
‘There must have been quite a bit of competition within the guild.’
The fact that Im Seok-jae secured the main dealer position meant the original main dealer had been demoted.
‘They probably gritted their teeth.’
They would have continued competing, dedicating themselves to training day and night.
‘Growth doesn’t happen overnight.’
At upper A-rank, whether one reached S-rank or not was determined by truly small moments of enlightenment.
“Your position becoming a bit unstable, that’s about the main dealer position, right?”
“Right. I lost the main dealer position. The current main dealer became S-rank.”
Until recently, Im Seok-jae had been Team 2’s main dealer.
His ultimate goal was to maintain Team 2’s main dealer position well and then move to Team 1.
But another guild member surged ahead and passed the S-rank promotion exam, becoming Team 2’s main dealer.
Naturally, Im Seok-jae was demoted to Team 2’s support dealer.
“Even though I received training from you.”
Im Seok-jae bowed his head as if apologetic.
Kang Yu-jun was becoming an issue on Hunternet.
All the Awakened he taught were soaring, and word was spreading that they were breaking through their limits to the very end.
Yu Je-na, Hong Jun-yong.
Two S-ranks were performing like crazy, and Lee Su-yeon was also becoming a minor issue.
Yet only he, who learned from the same trainer, was in this state.
“No. Don’t worry about it.”
Yujun comforted the dejected Im Seok-jae.
A trainer doesn’t simply help grow the body alone.
‘Training involves nurturing not just the body but the mind as well.’
Then he needed to provide motivation to his currently deflated spirit.
Yujun already knew from Im Seok-jae’s training what words he wanted to hear.
‘Personality-wise, he’s an Awakened who needs praise more.’
He’s the type who performs even better when praised, but whose condition drops sharply if not believed in even a little.
Yujun looked at Im Seok-jae.
His thoughts rapidly accelerated.
And his mouth opened.
The words he wanted to hear right now.
Those words came out very naturally.
“You’ll be my pride, Seok-jae. Having trained you will become my greatest achievement. So don’t worry. There’s no success without trials, right?”
“….”
Im Seok-jae’s pupils trembled for a moment. His body shook and his fists clenched tightly.
-Im Seok-jae’s bond reaches its limit.
-Im Seok-jae begins to revere you.
-You have trained Im Seok-jae’s mind!
-Training score 9 / 10
-Power dwells in his spirit!
‘Oh.’
-You have achieved an Achievement!
-You have achieved the Achievement [Mind Care]!
-You gained 500P!
Achievement Mind Care.
‘I guess it appeared because the bond went beyond to reverence.’
Then the Incubation skill activated as well.
-The Incubation skill activates due to mental training!
-Stats increase!
This was the first stat increase since performing limit enhancement.
-Strength stat increased by 1.
The number that increased was 1, but the sensation felt was different from before.
‘This is incredible.’
It wasn’t simply a stat increase of 1.
Right now, Yujun’s stats had risen beyond his previous limits.
Because of that, he could feel tremendous power just from clenching his fist.
‘This is why stats are important.’
Yujun smiled and gestured to Im Seok-jae.
“I believe in you.”
Shaaaaaaaak-!
Then Im Seok-jae began to emit mana.
‘As expected.’
The deepened bond led to admiration, and further led to blind trust toward Yujun.
“I’ll work hard. I’ll become S-rank. Without fail.”
* * *
“Is Trainer Kang Yu-jun here?”
“Over there, he’s over there. Oh my, a Prominent Figure has come in person.”
After Im Seok-jae’s training ended.
Yujun, who was resting, felt such an intense aura that he turned around to look.
‘He’s here.’
Prominent Figure.
At those words, Yujun realized that the person he had been waiting for had arrived.
‘Let’s see what kind of Prominent Figure this is.’
A white-haired man entered through the entrance.
Yujun smiled the moment he saw the man.
‘Crazy.’
The person who entered was a real Prominent Figure.
‘What a catch.’
And an incredible Prominent Figure at that.
