“It’s already evening.”

The day is long.

Maybe it feels unusually longer since I just woke up after passing out for half a day after getting off the recovery room.

The doctor said that when Principal Kim Cheol rushed to me holding me, I thought it was a big deal.

Even after hearing the diagnosis of mana depletion, it was said that he was forcibly dragged because of his schedule after wandering around for a long time.

“He is a very affectionate person.”

Shortly before I woke up, I got a text message from Principal Kim Cheol.

It was about being sorry that I couldn’t wait to wake up because of my schedule and left.

“By the way, I didn’t expect the first phone number stored in this terminal to be the principal… .”

The letter of introduction he asked for was said to be sent soon, and the damn scrap metal was placed on the table with the terminal.

I couldn’t hear my voice like before.

I threw it on the ground or stepped on it as a test, but there was no reaction.

It seemed that he was exhausted and fell asleep quite deeply.

I plan to leave it as it is for a while.

‘Because next time I won’t be able to defeat it as easily as this time.’

The Kowloon Shinhwajo, which is no different from the protagonist of this victory, is in a state of considerable damage due to forced use.

Until I can defeat the fox monster with all my skills, it will be sealed.

“There is also the option of getting help from Yoo Hyeon-hwa, but I’m not really interested in it.”

Yoo Hyeon-hwa is not the type to help me out of kindness.

Above all, if it grows faster than the original, like the last time, that is more of a problem.

“It will take some time, but I will not use it for a while, and I have no choice but to wait for summer vacation.”

During summer vacation, the main character will come out of Gwangma Palace.

In the empty light palace, the sacred fire that burns forever alone, the ‘Holy Fire’, is dormant.

You should use that one.

‘There are problems that need to be solved, but if you prepare thoroughly… .’

growl-

I was very hungry because I had skipped lunch.

Thanks to memorizing the map, I didn’t get lost on the way to the restaurant.

‘I like the fact that there are few people, perhaps because it’s a bit late.’

The number of students eating was less than ten.

I don’t have any objection to eating alone, but it’s been a while since I became a student.

Eating alone from the first day of admission was a bit so I looked for familiar faces.

“There is one.”

Namgoong Ik.

It was from the back, but it was easily recognizable because of its large size.

I put a heap of food on the tray and approached the table where he was sitting.

“Is the seat empty?”

“… … !”

Surprised, he hurriedly nodded his head in affirmation.

Judging by the untouched plate, it seems he was just about to start dinner.

I put the tray down and sat down and asked him a question.

“What did you do in the afternoon after orientation?”

“Actually, I’ve just woken up after I’m done, so I’m not sure… .”

Come to think of it, Namgung-Ik also fought against Cheon Yu-Ran’s dummy and was defeated, passed out and carried away.

If he had just woken up, it must have been quite a psychological shock.

It was reasonable because the opponent was nothing else, but the pile of Chun Yu-ran.

The moment I tried to continue the conversation while sympathizing with a similar situation.

“I didn’t do anything. About the introduction of the instructors and about the curriculum for the first semester?”

Shin Seong-a brought a tray, sat down next to me, and started talking to me.

She asked questions while tilting her head at Namgoong-Ik and me without an answer.

“why? Is there anyone else coming?”

“No, the seat is empty.”

I was taken aback by the unexpected, but continued.

I never thought Shin Seong-ah would come to me like this first.

Could it be that what happened at OT sparked her curiosity?

Whatever the reason, there’s nothing wrong with being friendly with Shin Seong-ah.

“From tomorrow you will experience hell. Even though I scared you to be prepared.”

She spoke in an exaggerated tone, as if she was impersonating an unknown instructor or threatening.

In the novel, the contents of the first semester class of the first year did not appear.

Naturally, the novel proceeds from the main character’s school transfer.

The main character’s transfer happened at the beginning of the second semester of the first year.

This is because what happened before that is only passed on to the extent that it is mentioned in the lines of other characters.

“Hell. Because the training at the Hero Academy is famous for being difficult.”

“Still, both of them seem used to working with their bodies, so I think they’re better than the others.”

Seongah said so, scooped up the soup and drank it.

He then opened his eyes, and immediately rolled the rice into the soup.

The spooning continued in an orderly manner.

‘So delicious?’

I exchanged glances with Namgung-ik in front of her as she quietly began to eat only soup.

Regardless of who said it, they lifted a spoon and drank the soup.

‘Mimi (美味)… !’

Namgoong-Ik probably thought the same.

This house, soup is art.

There was only the sound of chewing and passing food without a word.

The first to finish the meal was Shin Sung-ah.

Looking down at the empty plate, she said to herself with a pity.

“Well… . Would you like one more bowl?”

“Then you get fat.”

“It’s okay because I don’t normally gain weight.”

Seongah stood up with the tray, scooped out the same amount as before, and came back.

Then I focused on eating again.

When I checked Namgoong-Ik’s plate, he had finished eating like me.

Leaving Seongah, who was concentrating on the meal, alone for a while, I decided to talk to him.

“Since I’ve been lying down all this time, my body is sore. it is not so?”

“any… .”

“Would you like to move your body lightly while skipping dinner?”

During non-class hours, the training facilities are open to the public.

Dozens of such training grounds.

At least, the place where you can’t make excuses that you haven’t been able to train because the training ground is full is the Hero Academy.

Namgoong-Ik pondered for a while before answering my invitation.

“Yeah, fine.”

“Wouldn’t it be better if there were fewer people, if possible?”

“If possible.”

In that case, it would be better to use a small training ground located on the outskirts.

Needless to say, training ground 1 is the largest, and I know that there are many people who use training ground 5 as well.

‘It would be the 17th training ground or the 23rd training ground.’

There is no special training equipment, and since it is in a remote place, no one will come.

I know it well because it came out when the main character checked a training ground with few people in the original work.

“Only the two of you? I want to come too.”

Shin Seong-ah, who had eaten all the new food she had just received, intervened.

Although I know very well that training is meaningless for her.

There was no reason to refuse, so I decided to do it together.

“Then shall we go?”

“Before that, just one more bowl… .”

“Leave it.”

“okay. Ate it all.”

It’s been a long time since I’ve been in school, but it wasn’t too bad.

If you think about eating with someone, it’s been quite a while.

“let’s go.”

We headed to the training ground.

* * *

training ground.

Namgungik’s pupils were shaking left and right.

He carefully chose his words and put them in his mouth.

“Um, what should I say? The basic physical ability isn’t bad. Should I say that I lack practical experience? .”

“Aren’t you sick somewhere?”

However, Shin Seong-ah, unlike Namgung-ik, asked Hanzo directly.

“Except for being a little lethargic due to lack of mana, I have been in the recovery room all the time, so my body is fine.”

“okay? Then why are you so weak?”

weak.

There is no lie in that word.

It’s not like Namgung-Ik has excellent musculature and martial arts.

It’s not like he has brilliant talent like Shin Seong-ah.

I am only here thanks to the compatibility, characteristics, and knowledge of the original work.

I’m still weak

“I don’t think it would be that bad if you fill in the actual experience. Still, I think it will be difficult to surpass the first class.”

first class. It is not unreasonable for Namgoong-Ik to say that he will not be able to pass the C rank.

It was because I did not use any attributes, let alone mana, to test my full strength.

‘My pure skill is just that much.’

Although they decided to fight each other without using mana.

Namgoong-Ik did not use both his legs and right arm, but used only his left hand to deal with me.

Still, my side was pushed.

To that extent, there was a huge difference in skill between me and Namgoong Ik.

‘If I hadn’t used <Physical Arts>, Namgoong-Ik would have been able to deal with me with just one finger.’

It was warming up, but it was a bit disappointing to end it like this.

If possible, I would like to train regularly.

If the difference in skill between each other is too great, there is no reason for me to say that we should train together.

‘It’s a reason. I just need to make it from now on.’

Even if you don’t use mana, if you’re not paying attention right now, it shouldn’t be difficult to take a shot.

Due to the depletion of mana, the body is not in perfect condition, but one breath should be fine.

“Okay, one more time.”

“okay.”

Namgoong-Ik kept his posture without saying anything.

bare hands.

I didn’t even use the shield I used at OT, let alone the black one.

“Bare hands like before?”

“You are bare-handed too. It doesn’t matter if you use a shield. You don’t have to be trained either.”

“Today is fine.”

Namgoong-Ik took his stance.

Even though it was the same condition of not using mana, it seemed like Taishan was standing in front of him.

How did such a strong guy leave before the main character entered school?

‘Lower your presence and presence with the <Poem of the Raven> passive effect.’

Use all of the attributes that prevented activation.

‘I activate <Excellent Perspective> to widen my narrowed field of view again, and consume my concentration to use <Thought Acceleration>.’

First of all, an excellent eye and thought acceleration.

The field of view widens, and one second is cut off and stretched out.

A world slower than before.

Unfortunately, spotting weaknesses is a failure.

It’s not that weaknesses don’t exist, so it’s probably because of the extreme difference in skill with him.

“… … !”

Taking advantage of the experience from earlier, I rushed towards him once more.

I failed to detect the weak point, but I aimed for the breath between breaths.

Certainly, the response was a bit later than before.

But that was all.

‘There’s no answer because it’s pushed back from basic physical abilities.’

However, as before, it was difficult to deal with only one hand, so I immediately started using two hands.

Look at those wide-eyed eyes.

It definitely looks better now than before.

In the end, he was caught by Namgungik’s hand and flew away.

“Ugh.”

I hit the fall perfectly, but I have no intention of running again.

My head started hurting, probably because I used <Thought Acceleration>.

It was also late.

Namgoong-Ik approached and held out his hand and asked a question.

“Did you adjust your strength before, unlike this time?”

“Isn’t it similar?”

I answered by holding his hand and getting up.

However, my answer seems to have fallen short of him.

“But you still don’t have enough power, right?”

Sharp.

Is it a sense of innocence?

Due to the condition of not using mana, I didn’t even use <Poetry of the Raven>.

But other than that, it’s my strength.

“If I have the same mind, I want to try a little more using mana.”

It was quite late.

Since I just got out of mana depletion, I need to take a break for a day or so.

I don’t want to collapse again and be taken to the recovery room after using mana with excitement.

“Would you like to train together like this more often in the future?”

What I was about to say was replaced by Namgoong Ik.

Of course it’s okay.

“As long as you’re okay.”

“I, too, will visit sometime.”

Even today, she only watched, but did you see her smiling face?

It looks like it was pretty fun.

I trained alone, but then I trained with others.

It didn’t feel too bad.
