Chapter 107
107: Dohyun, Please Kill Me!!!(2)
Though Jiyuchan had been a bit over the top, my training regimen wasn’t nearly as grueling as I’d feared. For Choe Yunsuk, it was torture, but I was actually being quite considerate—at least physically speaking.
With Muscle Healing Magic leading the charge, I was essentially reconstructing Choe Yunsuk’s body, so there was no physical strain whatsoever. Yet his mind felt like it was on the verge of collapse from the agony.
His body should have been screaming in pain, making it impossible to continue, but strangely his physique remained pristine, forcing him to keep going. It was like doing personal training at a gym where “just one more” never ends, where you feel like you’re dying from exhaustion yet your body is perfectly fine, so you have to do more.
In any case, he was in that dreadful state.
“Ughhhh…”
He lay collapsed, making strange sounds from the exertion, yet his body was in peak condition as if nothing had happened—it was enough to make Choe Yunsuk weep like a ghost.
Still, since he could feel his body growing stronger, he couldn’t bring himself to say he couldn’t continue.
And most of all.
‘Is he some kind of ghost?’
Every time his body nearly collapsed before recovering, I did something to heal him, and Choe Yunsuk watched me with a mixture of awe and terror.
He wondered how I could read his condition so perfectly, but lacked the energy to ask, so he rested on the ground instead.
The only silver lining was that I at least gave him rest periods like this.
I smiled slightly and examined Choe Yunsuk’s condition.
According to my Analysis, his stats were incomparably better than yesterday.
『Choe Yunsuk』
『Trait: Spiral Spear Knight[B]』
『Skills』
▶「Spearmanship[C]」
▶「Spiral Spear[C]」
『Stats』
▶「Strength: 5▶7」
▶「Agility: 4▶7」
▶「Stamina: 6▶8」
▶「Mana: 7」
All physical stats except mana had increased by 2 or more, so I wasn’t doing anything wrong.
If I’d been harsher, I could have raised all physical stats to 4, but since he’d be receiving stat boosts at the Training Facility anyway, I held back.
After moderating the training appropriately, I analyzed Choe Yunsuk.
His physical stats were now distributed much more evenly than before, so it was time to move on to the next phase. Normally this would be taught on the second day at the Training Facility, but since I’d received permission, I spoke up.
“Now let’s learn how to use mana.”
“Huh?! Mana?”
The moment he heard those words, Choe Yunsuk sprang to his feet.
Since we’d been friends since childhood, Choe Yunsuk had naturally watched countless manga and web novels, so his fascination with mana was considerable.
His eyes sparkled again, so I explained the principles of mana manipulation to him.
After teaching him how to channel mana through his body, how to use it, and how to increase his stats, I had to wonder—was it the trait’s overwhelming power? Or was it because I was teaching so effectively with my Analysis?
After practicing for a while, more than two hours passed before he grasped mana manipulation.
Uuuuuuung——
Choe Yunsuk felt the mana trembling finely as it infused his body. As he felt his strength and various physical specs increasing, he swallowed hard at that strange sensation.
Realizing this was the power of mana, he was quietly experiencing it when I spoke up.
“Now, naturally swing the spear while using mana control, and the mana will naturally flow into the weapon.”
“Huh? But why a spear?”
“???”
Since I’d only been conducting physical training without actually having him wield weapons, Choe Yunsuk’s question about why a spear left me momentarily speechless.
If I explained this to Hanalin or Jiyuchan, both would immediately accept my reasoning as correct—their trust in me bordered on faith—but since they possessed exceptional talent and aptitude, they grasped the logic instantly without requiring further elaboration.
Choe Yunsuk, however, was different.
His talent was certainly good. Otherwise, his characteristic wouldn’t be B-rank. But that talent was slightly ambiguous.
Because it was B-rank and not A-rank, he couldn’t grasp my meaning immediately. If it had been A-rank instead, he would have cut at least an hour or more from learning mana control.
I explained things to Choe Yunsuk step by step.
“Looking at your reach and leg length, it’s better for you to master the spear than the sword.”
“Really? Hmm, I prefer the sword though.”
At my words, Choe Yunsuk pouted his lips in displeasure, but since he was learning from me, he retrieved the spear hanging on the Training Room wall.
Though he obediently followed my instruction, I shook my head as if I had no choice but to show him the difference.
“Then try holding the sword first. You’ll understand once you experience it yourself.”
“Ooh?! Yeah, yeah, I’m actually a sword expert, you know. Hehehehe.”
“Go ahead, take it out.”
As I played along with Choe Yunsuk’s antics, he immediately drew the sword. However, his grip on the hilt and his stance were clumsy.
Choe Yunsuk had short legs and a relatively long torso, so when he swung the sword, it looked wobbly.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.
After swinging a few times, Choe Yunsuk sensed something was off, so he sheathed the sword and picked up the spear instead. Because his legs were slightly short, he swung it with stability, and as he rotated his waist simultaneously to transfer rotational force, the power was completely different.
Whoooosh——
Whiiiing——!
Even the sound of cutting through the air was different, and the feel in his hands was different. Moreover, since a spear isn’t just about swinging but also thrusting, when Choe Yunsuk grasped the shaft and thrust the spear, his posture was quite refined.
Soon after, as mana flowed into the spear and spear technique manifested, Choe Yunsuk was startled.
“Whoa!? It worked!?”
“See? What did I tell you?”
“Y-yeah!?”
As Choe Yunsuk blinked in surprise, I chuckled and began teaching him how to handle the spear. When I explained how to grip it and how to use it, he absorbed the information like a sponge soaking up water.
As Choe Yunsuk accepted the spear techniques I taught him, his movements changed considerably.
When he wielded it while using mana, he resembled a decent F-rank Hunter.
I watched Choe Yunsuk with satisfaction, and mana control soon appeared on his status window.
Furthermore, I analyzed Spiral Thrust and taught him the method, and since it was a skill he already possessed, he could learn it more easily.
Normally, as one uses a spear, they gradually discover their own skills and naturally develop them, but the moment I taught him, Choe Yunsuk could use Spiral Thrust—it was unbelievable.
The instant he thrust, he twisted his wrist like rotating the spear along with the mana, causing the rotational force to grip the mana and pierce through the air with considerable rotation.
It was clearly a technique of considerable power, so Choe Yunsuk couldn’t help but swallow hard.
“Wow….”
As admiration escaped him naturally, I smirked and spoke to Choe Yunsuk.
“How about that.”
Though we’d trained for over eight hours, Choe Yunsuk showed no signs of fatigue, his eyes sparkling with wonder.
Realizing this was what a Hunter’s technique was, his eyes gleamed, and I couldn’t help but smirk at the sight.
“Come back tomorrow too.”
“Ugh, it’s tough, but I guess I have no choice.”
“But it’s fun, right?”
“Yeah, it’s seriously amazing.”
“Then I’m glad.”
I smiled warmly, fully understanding what Choe Yunsuk was experiencing.
It was only natural to feel considerable joy upon awakening a talent. Even Elves, the superior species, and Dwarves, the mid-tier race, were said to possess talent at the B-Rank level—how much more would a human like Choe Yunsuk feel?
With that in mind, I decided I’d need to teach him more tomorrow as I prepared to leave the Training Room with him.
Just as I was about to shower and head out for a meal, having already stayed quite late, I sensed something odd and lifted my head.
From the direction I turned, an intensely powerful aura seemed to leak through, but when I looked again, that presence vanished immediately. I tilted my head in confusion. When I didn’t move, Choe Yunsuk looked at me and asked.
“What’s wrong?”
At his question about whether something was the matter, I shook my head.
“Nothing.”
I figured it was just my imagination and let it go.
I wondered if something suspicious was happening, but dismissed it as an unnecessary thought.
Because.
‘That’s the Association President’s Office, isn’t it?’
With Han Muyeol there, there was no need for me to step in.
So I left the Training Room with Choe Yunsuk.
* * *
At that same moment, in the Association President’s Office.
Han Muyeol was in the midst of various tasks to cover up the Dohyun Party when he frowned at the urgent call coming through the Association President’s direct line.
The direct line rarely rang, so he felt a sense of foreboding as he answered, and a familiar voice came through.
-Association President, this is an emergency.
It was none other than his secretary and the Secretary-General who oversaw all secretaries at the Hunter Association. The task Han Muyeol had entrusted to her was the management of Hunters who had emerged from the Black Gate.
The fact that she was contacting him meant something had gone wrong with that management, so Han Muyeol responded immediately.
“What’s the matter?”
Behind Han Muyeol’s stern voice, Secretary-General Jeong Yumi answered in a grave tone.
-…Currently, a C-Rank Hunter Party should have returned, but they haven’t. And the number of C-Rank Parties with severed returns has now exceeded three teams.
“More than three teams haven’t returned?”
-Yes, that’s correct. To understand the situation, I also checked the status in other countries, but….
Though she didn’t continue, Han Muyeol’s expression darkened as if he had heard enough.
And he asked.
“Are other countries experiencing severed returns as well?”
-Yes, sir. The confirmed total is 15 teams. The United States and Japan also have teams that haven’t returned and are out of contact.
“Are the connections still active?”
At Han Muyeol’s words, Jeong Yumi answered immediately.
-We’ve confirmed that other C-Rank Parties can still enter, so we’ve blocked all C-Rank Party entries for now.
“Good work. I’ll look into it as well, so let me know if there are any updates.”
-Yes, understood.
The call ended, and though Han Muyeol’s fury flared for a moment, its aura rippling outward before he quickly reined it back in.
‘Return Suspension’ referred to the state of a party that could return but had chosen not to.
Ordinarily, some parties did decide to linger longer, but three parties? That was unusual.
And if parties from other countries were also experiencing Return Suspension, it meant only one thing.
“Damn these villainous bastards.”
A significant villain had emerged, so Han Muyeol ground his teeth and muttered the words.
Earth Hunters—humanity itself—were being hunted in the C-rank Zone.
