Yeo Joo Saves the World – Episode 29

“Let’s head inside and take a look.”
Kang Han led the way, stepping into the Training Facility.
Though everyone filed in behind him, the rest area was so spacious that our voices echoed off the walls.
“Wow, it’s huge.”
Jang Su Ho murmured, not knowing where to look first.
“The day our guild gets a training facility this incredible… I never thought it would come.”
Lee Yu Eul couldn’t hide her excitement, lost in emotion.
“Those rooms all appear to be pocket dimensions.”
Han Ji Sung pointed to the various specialized training spaces connected by transparent doors.
“I did request the pocket dimension expansion work.”
Does Sung Yo Na not care about hiding her identity at all?
Large pocket dimensions like this, available for constant use, couldn’t be created by just anyone.
If ordinary D-rank Awakeners possessed such abilities, Seoul’s real estate prices would have plummeted long ago.
With just a small plot of land, one could expand infinitely using pocket dimensions.
“Shall we take a slow look around?”
I stood in the center of the rest area visible from the entrance and surveyed our new training facility.
“The pocket dimension dividing walls are all glass, so we can see everything happening inside from here.”
It was the optimal structure for preparing for any unexpected situation.
There would be no more incidents like Han Ji Sung’s, where he nearly lost control while locked away attempting something alone.
This attention to detail was especially necessary for Justice Guild, where everyone’s abilities were still unstable.
“From outside it looked kind of like a pizza slice, but now that we’re inside, it’s so much wider and more rectangular!”
Lee Yu Eul exclaimed as she opened the door to the basic physical training room.
“Is this some kind of magic or what?”
Once inside, the pocket dimension was even larger.
“It puts the Association Training Grounds to shame.”
“Right. We won’t have to worry about anyone’s opinion here.”
The twins spoke, perhaps recalling our visit to the Association.
Those bastards from Titan Guild.
Thinking of how much Lee Yu Chan suffered that day, I couldn’t find kind words.
And I remembered why I hired Sung Yo Na to create this training facility.
“Why would we worry? This is all Justice Guild’s.”
At my words, everyone seemed lost in thought.
One thing they all shared was that their shoulders, tense as if they were visiting someone else’s guild, had relaxed considerably.
And so we began our proper tour of the new training facility.
“Starting from the right, there’s the guild master’s exclusive lightning training ground, the Archery Training Ground for Lee Yu Chan, the basic physical conditioning room, the combat simulation chamber, and a mana recovery room combined with a focused meditation space that will be useful for Han Ji Sung and Jang Su Ho.”
I hadn’t bothered explaining it to the guild members, but there were two training grounds where I’d invested a bit more money than elsewhere.
The first was Kang Han’s training ground.
To absorb S-rank lightning without causing damage to the surroundings.
And the second was the simulation training chamber, which occupied the largest space.
It looks empty now, but if you control the device in front of the door, the space beyond transforms into various dungeon ecosystems—caves, glaciers, jungles, and so on.
“Wow, you really have everything we need.”
“But unnie, what’s that door?”
Lee Yu Eul pointed to the door on the left side of the entrance and asked.
“That’s Han Ji Sung’s exclusive research lab.”
“I have my own research facility in the training grounds?”
Han Ji Sung looked at me in surprise.
“Yes, you’ll only sleep in your room. Do your research down here. You know why, don’t you?”
I couldn’t bear to watch him collapse again like last time, left alone to helplessly spiral out of control.
“It might be a bit inconvenient without privacy, but I’m willing to accept that. Besides, I specially made it semi-transparent instead of completely transparent like the other rooms.”
“…Thank you.”
Han Ji Sung looked away from me, his gaze turning toward his new research lab with a hint of embarrassment.
He looked like an ice sculpture at first—I thought his facial muscles might have actually frozen—but after spending time together, I’d reached the point where I could tell he was quite excited about the existence of this research lab.
“And this break room is designed to help with stamina recovery, so it’s good to rest here for a bit after training before heading back to your rooms.”
I settled into a plush, oversized sofa I’d specially chosen and carefully selected, speaking as I did.
It was a prime spot where I could see all the training rooms at a glance.
This was my exclusive seat now.
“I should start training right away.”
Kang Han said, removing the jumper he’d been wearing.
Inspired by him, the other guild members began stretching or heading into their desired training grounds.
Oh, right.
I almost forgot.
“Don’t forget to come out periodically and get healed by me!”
“Huh? It doesn’t seem like anyone will get injured during training?”
Lee Yu Eul’s eyes widened as if thinking, ‘Surely you don’t mean we should train hard enough to get hurt?’
“You only get healed if you’re injured? I mean, don’t keep training while your stamina is depleted and get hurt—prevent it beforehand.”
And I needed to practice my healing skill too.
The system’s hint was simple.
Whether it’s body healing or darkness purification, do it a lot.
Then by raising proficiency, I can escape this damn ‘Beginner I’ level.
In other words, this training ground is a space for everyone in the Justice Guild.
Including me.
“Ah, perfect.”
I found a plush cushion and blanket, settling down and lying back completely.
Meanwhile, the guild members were too busy adapting to the new training grounds to notice.
Kang Han, Lee Yu Chan, and Han Ji Sung each entered their private training rooms, while Jang Su Ho and Lee Yu Eul headed to the basic physical conditioning facility with its heavy equipment.
“Just like gym… these young saplings, I tell you.”
Yes, train hard and grow stronger quickly.
You all have such a long road ahead of you.
“Then I’ll catch a quick nap.”
The aftereffects of guiding Han Ji Sung yesterday still lingered—my bones ached with a cold, piercing sensation.
I pulled the blanket higher over myself and suddenly thought of Sung Yo Na.
‘It seems like she was just trying to do a rough job, but somehow ended up concentrating intensely and creating a masterpiece.’
If she’d constructed such an absurdly excellent subspace for other requests relative to the payment received, she would already be incredibly famous.
Finding an ability user named Gua Ri with subspace powers was already incredibly difficult in the first place.
I’d had to scour the entire internet for it.
“I’ve incurred a debt.”
With Sung Yo Na’s terrified expression as my last thought, I drifted into sleep.

* * *

Crack, crack, boom! Kaboom!
Explosive sounds continuously erupted from Kang Han’s training room.
The fact that it pierced through the Training Facility’s powerful soundproofing to this degree—I wondered if Kang Han’s eardrums were alright.
No.
Perhaps S-rank ability users had sturdy eardrums too.
Each time Kang Han incinerated and detonated the virtual monsters generated in the subspace with electricity, his brown hair scattered in the wind, and golden waves flickered across his emerald eyes.
Unlike before, when he could only fire attacks in straight lines, I could see he’d now reached a level where lightning moved fluidly following the motions of his powerful arms.
‘That face and back are a blessing.’
Beyond the lottery luck itself, Kang Han’s kind face and dangerous physique were certainly fueling my surging motivation these days.
Kang Han wasn’t the only one throwing himself into training.

Lee Yu Chan’s obsession with training was even more intense than the other guild members.
There were nights when he’d shoot arrows without sleep until I half-cursed at him, saying “You’ll never grow tall at this rate!”
‘Does this short guy really have that much pent up inside him?’
I was so shocked seeing his fingers torn and the bowstring stained red with blood.
After going through such an intense period over several days, Lee Yu Chan now hit the center of every moving target he shot at.
Though his skill re-awakening remains at the [Possible] stage.
But at this rate, I don’t think it’ll take long.
So all the guild members practically lived at the Training Facility.
“But why, huff, do I have to, puff, do this too?”
Damn, this is exhausting.
My legs trembled as I stepped on the infinite stair machine that Jang Su Ho had introduced as the “Stairway to Heaven.”
“I mean, I just need to, puff, practice healing… that’s it!”
I seriously thought I’d reach heaven before preventing the apocalypse if I kept this up, so I attempted an escape.
But then cold fingers grabbed the back of my neck.
“Didn’t you tell me that, Yeo Joo? That even mages need good stamina. Healers are no exception.”
The height difference and basic strength gap were so large that no amount of struggling could free me.
“You have to exercise hard to stay healthy, Yeo Joo.”
This guy definitely didn’t want to suffer alone.
He was getting revenge for having to do cardio because of my nagging!
“Come on, just 10 more minutes.”
Han Ji Sung’s long, pale fingers mercilessly pressed the button to add 10 more minutes.
“I could just buy a stamina-boosting item….”
“Yeo Joo.”
“Fine, fine. I got it.”
Just do it.
I’m exercising out of spite!
It’s definitely not because I’m scared of Han Ji Sung’s glare!
“Haaah….”
So I started climbing the stairs toward heaven again.
Ah, I think I can see Mom and Dad.
Then, at that moment, my phone that I’d set aside rang.
Trrrrrrr- Trrrrrrr-
“Oh, a call came in?”
I quickly stopped the machine and answered, feeling Han Ji Sung’s sharp glare on me.
Well, what can I do.
A call came in.
“I wonder who’s calling me.”
Right now, I could even gladly accept a persistent recruitment call from Yoo Myung Hwa of the Dongbaek Guild.
“Let me see, the caller is….”

[ Sugar Workshop ]

“That was quite an important call.”
It had been from Jung Je Hwa, the guild master of the Maestro Guild.
