My Right Hand Is Too Strong Episode 53

 

Episode 53. How to Tame a Cat (Complete)

 

One day passed, then two days passed.

 

Though the morning sun that announces dawn hadn’t risen, it was morning according to the clock anyway.

 

Walking out of the cabin, I stretched lightly, extending my body.

 

“Phew…”

 

Unlike the always dark and gloomy atmosphere of the forest, the air here was as sweet as the Verdant Forest.

 

Filling my lungs with fresh air, I exhaled thinly and looked back.

 

“…”

 

The door was still tightly closed.

 

Jini hasn’t come out of her room since the first day.

 

Thanks to that, I haven’t been able to see Jini’s face since that day.

 

Now it’s really time to devise a method.

 

‘I have no idea how I should handle this.’

 

Well, somehow it’ll work out.

 

Shrugging my shoulders, I trudged back toward the cabin and rolled up my sleeves.

 

Anyway, since today had dawned, I should do what needs to be done first.

 

* * *

 

Another day passed, then two more days passed.

 

During those two days, I lived the same daily routine.

 

The increasing frequency of successful attacks against Elpinire with each passing day was more fun than I thought.

 

During that time, I couldn’t properly see Jini’s face even once.

 

Even though an additional two days had passed, Jini showed no signs of coming out of her room.

 

After lightly washing with water from the well and returning to the cabin, I found the bowl in the same state as when I left today…

 

“Huh?”

 

It was empty.

 

Not all of the stew that had been in the bowl, but about half of it was gone.

 

I was so moved by this fact that I covered my mouth.

 

“Master. Why are you acting like that over there?”

 

“…It’s nothing.”

 

It’s nothing at all.

 

Shaking my head, I hummed cheerfully.

 

“You look quite pleased, Master.”

 

“Hm? Oh, I suddenly don’t feel tired at all.”

 

“I see…”

 

Wait a minute.

 

Why are you making that expression?

 

No.

 

It’s not what you think.

 

I made a disgusted expression while looking at Elpinire approaching with a grin.

 

* * *

 

Jini now sat down openly and watched the uninvited guests who had come to her home.

 

It had been over five days since they stayed here.

 

At first, she only wanted them to leave her space quickly, but now, how should she put it.

 

She was starting to feel like it didn’t matter whether they stayed or left.

 

Jini followed them as they stepped outside the house.

 

Usually they would spar for about 5 hours and finish, but today they seemed to want to do more.

 

As always, she followed them out and sat down on the ground to watch with interested eyes.

 

“Master. You’re getting better and better.”

 

“I think, I’m going, to die.”

 

“If you have the energy to talk, how about throwing one more punch?”

 

“…Can’t you just go back?”

 

“You’d be bored if I went back. Right, Master?”

 

“I have Cheo-ri, so I won’t be bored.”

 

Puhehe.

 

She didn’t really understand what going back meant, but watching them made her laugh.

 

After shouting and bickering for a while, they immediately began seriously exchanging punches without anyone taking the lead.

 

Even in those moments, smiles lingered on their lips.

 

“…”

 

Jini, who had been crouching, buried her head in her knees and watched them.

 

Han Mi-reo, who got back up as if nothing happened even after being beaten and knocked down.

 

Elpinire, who sparred with such Han Mi-reo while teaching him her techniques.

 

What on earth made them so close-knit?

 

What on earth.

 

“…”

 

What created the bond of ‘trust’ between them?

 

She didn’t really know.

 

In her world, those two were nothing more than incomprehensible beings.

 

That’s why she could only watch them with dampened, sunken eyes.

 

“Let’s do it one more time and then rest.”

 

“That’s for me to decide. Not you, Master.”

 

Jini smiled again as if she had never been gloomy.

 

She watched them start sparring again with a small smile.

 

“…”

 

Omen quietly watched such Jini.

 

Jini was cheering for both sides with an excited smile.

 

She who had initially watched from afar was now.

 

“Ah!”

 

Watching them from a distance of only about 50 meters.

 

* * *

 

Already the sixth day since entering the Tower.

 

“Today I’m definitely going to land a hit.”

 

Yesterday I almost landed a proper hit on Elpinire.

 

It was really a paper-thin difference, but this damn elf released mana and pushed me away before getting hit.

 

I’m so frustrated I could die.

 

How was I almost successful!

 

“…But I wonder how Earth is doing by now.”

 

After about six days, I’m curious about Earth’s situation.

 

Since I trust Seong Yu-mi and Jeong Chan-woo, I don’t think anything bad happened to Hyung-su-nim.

 

I’m just purely curious about what’s happening on Earth right now.

 

I should probably focus on achieving the floor’s conditions rather than training today.

 

Thinking that, I opened the door.

 

And.

 

“Oh, what’s for breakfast today…?”

 

I froze at the sight of Jini sitting at the dining table after coming out of her room.

 

Jini, who I naturally thought wouldn’t be there, had come out of her room.

 

She was even asking me what was for breakfast this morning.

 

‘…Don’t tell me she’s telling me to get lost now?’

 

Damn.

 

Maybe I was thinking too complacently.

 

What should I do….

 

“Um, by any chance is there no breakfast this morning…?”

 

“…Huh?”

 

I stared at Jini blankly, blinking my eyes.

 

No way.

 

“You really came out to eat breakfast?”

 

“Th-then was that not allowed…?”

 

It felt like getting hit in the back of the head with a hammer.

 

That Jini.

 

Jini who wouldn’t even answer when called.

 

To think she came out first and asked what breakfast was.

 

I looked at Jini while acting as nonchalant as possible.

 

This was definitely Jini’s cabin, the space where Jini had been living.

 

But Jini didn’t look comfortable at all.

 

Her hands were fidgeting restlessly and her eyes were rolling around.

 

I didn’t know why she suddenly came out of her room, but she had clearly made a big decision.

 

I asked Jini in the most casual tone possible.

 

“Today it’s soybean paste stew.”

 

“Soybean paste…?”

 

“It’s a paste made from beans, and I can make plenty with the ingredients I brought.”

 

Elpinire’s power is really useful.

 

Thanks to her, the ingredients that were lacking became abundant to overflowing.

 

‘Though every time she used her power like that, Elpinire suffered as if she’d been shot….’

 

Well, what can you do.

 

People need to eat to live.

 

After smacking my lips quietly, I immediately rolled up my sleeves.

 

“Wait just a bit. I’ll make it delicious for you.”

 

“Y-yes!”

 

Five years of living alone experience.

 

It was time to properly show the skills from when I used to cook everything I wanted to eat by watching MewTube.

 

* * *

 

“Haah….”

 

I chuckled watching Jini eat the soup with a blissful expression.

 

“Is it good?”

 

“Hup!”

 

Only then recognizing my existence, Jini covered her mouth.

 

I nodded while watching Jini roll her eyes around.

 

“Soup is always most delicious when it’s hot.”

 

“…I see.”

 

“From now on, don’t eat cold food, let’s eat together when we eat. I always make plenty.”

 

“Yes.”

 

Jini smiled faintly and continued eating in silence.

 

I glanced at Jini.

 

Judging by her expression, her wariness had definitely disappeared compared to when she first came out.

 

At this rate, we might be able to pass the 3rd Floor soon.

 

I also smiled and continued eating.

 

As time passed and both our bowls were nearly empty.

 

“Gasp! Master, don’t tell me you already finished eating without me… Jini!?”

 

“…You notice quite quickly.”

 

Unlike me who always wakes up at 8 o’clock, the Guardian who wakes up at 10 o’clock had finally risen.

 

I let out a long sigh and looked at Elpinire.

 

Jini was just smiling for some reason while watching me and Elpinire.

 

* * *

 

“Master. I hate to say this, but you seem to have quite a talent.”

 

“Is that so. Thanks.”

 

“No, really. I was fifteen when I had the same level of skill as you do now. I started training at thirteen, getting beaten by Grandfather.”

 

So I caught up to Elpinire’s two years of experience in just a few days?

 

Thinking about it that way, maybe she wasn’t just being polite.

 

“So from today on, let’s continue sparring using this mist that you use.”

 

“This?”

 

I looked at the mist with wide eyes.

 

Until now, I hadn’t used mist while sparring with Elpinire.

 

I had just sparred purely with fists and feet.

 

“Master, you received Mother’s blessing after being chosen by her, but you’re not an elf, right?”

 

“That’s right.”

 

“So you can’t perfectly copy elven combat techniques.”

 

No matter how similar elves and humans look, the fact that they’re different species is true.

 

Life expectancy, pointed ears, and various other parts are different, but there was one biggest difference.

 

“Elven mana is a bit special.”

 

Elpinire looked at me while wrapping verdant mana around her right hand.

 

Certainly, the mana she used was on a different level from ordinary mana.

 

A much more refreshing feeling than ordinary mana.

 

The color was also green rather than the blue color of mana.

 

This was because elven mana basically contained the power of the World Tree.

 

Therefore, elven techniques were unsuitable for humans to use.

 

“But this is the same for you, Master. The mana you use is quite unique too, isn’t it?”

 

“That’s right.”

 

My mana is essentially ‘mist’ itself.

 

It would be very far from ordinary.

 

“It would be difficult even with ordinary mana, but your mana is too rough. That’s why you can’t learn our techniques even more.”

 

That’s unfortunate.

 

All the techniques Elpinire used looked powerful, but I can’t learn them.

 

Still, after hearing the explanation, I think I understand what Elpinire is trying to say.

 

“The basics are done, so you’re going to work on the technical aspects?”

 

“Correct.”

 

“…That’s a bit hurtful to my pride.”

 

I admit that I lack basic skills.

 

I lived my whole life far from fighting, so naturally.

 

But being looked down on technically wasn’t very pleasant.

 

I may hate the Black Dragon, but I like ‘Black Dragon’.

 

Moreover, all the applications and derivatives of ‘mist’ are techniques I created myself.

 

Naturally, having that dismissed didn’t feel very good.

 

“Then come at me. Prove it directly, Master.”

 

“Fine.”

 

I absolutely won’t back down.

 

I smiled and stretched the black mist rising from the ground forward.

 

[Mist – Shadowless]

 

Whoosh!

 

Dozens of strands of black mist extending like tentacles.

 

Elpinire captured each strand of shooting mist with her eyes, then lightly kicked off the ground.

 

“Ha.”

 

Whoosh!

 

The mist’s tentacles sweep past beneath Elpinire’s feet.

 

Elpinire lightly stepped on those mist tentacles while rapidly spinning her body in midair.

 

The mist tentacles all narrowly graze past the spinning Elpinire by a paper-thin margin.

 

Following that, Elpinire deflected all the mist tentacles and kicked off the ground the moment she landed.

 

“Is this the end?”

 

“As if.”

 

There were many things I learned from facing countless villains over the past month.

 

There’s no way this would be the end.

 

I looked at Elpinire charging toward me and clenched my fist tightly.

 

The black mist tentacles exploded in an instant.

 

The intensity of that explosion was weak compared to ‘Rampage’, but.

 

It was enough to subdue villains.

 

‘Of course, it would be insufficient to subdue Elpinire.’

 

Thick smoke billowed up.

 

I calmly exhaled within it and glanced to the side.

 

Then I immediately kicked off the ground toward the front and disappeared into the smoke.

 

* * *

 

Gasp!

 

Jini covered her mouth with both hands and watched Han Mi-reo who had rushed over.

 

It felt like their eyes had just met.

 

That’s the feeling she had.

 

‘Did I come too close?’

 

She wanted to see their appearance from a little closer.

 

So Jini boldly approached right next to the well.

 

But it seems this wasn’t their usual sparring that only used fists and legs.

 

Green mana and black mist collided, shaking the ground.

 

Jini couldn’t hide her bewilderment at the unexpected situation.

 

Jini clutched her heart that was pounding as if it would burst, exhaled, and hid her body behind the well.

 

‘…Strong.’

 

She had thought this even when they were purely sparring, but those two people were strong.

 

Very much so.

 

If they had tried to subdue Jini, she was confident she would be subdued without being able to lift a finger.

 

However, they didn’t do that.

 

While being considerate of her wariness, they were steadily living their lives in this place.

 

“…As expected, you two didn’t come here to capture me.”

 

Jini muttered this and unknowingly smiled.

 

That smile was.

 

-…

 

A terribly bright smile that even Omen, who had stayed by her side for several years, had never seen before.

 

* * *

 

“Cough-!”

 

“Ma, Master!”

 

A window that suddenly appeared beside me.

 

Seeing that and becoming flustered, I couldn’t even defend against Elpinire’s incoming punch and got hit.

 

Pain as if all the bones in my body were shattered and my organs were tangled up.

 

I spat out a handful of blood from my mouth and rolled on the ground, trembling finely.

 

Elpinire, who had turned pale, quickly ran toward me and shouted.

 

“Are you okay, Master!? I used Grandfather’s technique…!”

 

“I’m not dead.”

 

Now that I’ve been hit, I think I understand.

 

Elsesto’s full-power attack would send me to the Underworld with one hit, even with the blessing of super regeneration.

 

I struggled to get up while receiving Elpinire’s treatment and exhaled calmly.

 

Fortunately, Elpinire also didn’t put her full power into it, so I didn’t die.

 

It just hurt enough to die.

 

I let out a small groan and entrusted my body to Elpinire’s treatment.

 

Thanks to the combination of her treatment and the blessing of super regeneration, my body quickly returned to its original state.

 

With the pain somewhat gone, I looked again at the window that had appeared earlier.

 

“What is this?”

 

“What, Master?”

 

“…It’s nothing.”

 

Just.

 

[Dispelling the Witch’s Wariness]

 

[Achieved]

 

[Moving to the next floor]

 

I didn’t do anything, yet the floor was automatically completed.

 

I looked at the system with a dubious expression, then glanced to the side.

 

There, it seemed like some kind of blurry shadow had been appearing constantly since a few days ago.
