The time when I was lost in thought because of the affinity and characteristic copying.

Did you think it was strange not to let go of your hand even after standing up? I’ve been talking to Anton.

“What, do you have anything more to say?”

I also checked the affinity, and I must have acquired the characteristics because of that.

All of my business here is finished.

He said as he let go of his hand.

“The training will continue. Come on time.”

“It’s something I wanted to ask for from my side.”

Anton replied with a warlike smile.

He seems to be curious about his own strength as he has grown.

It would be nice if it was as strong as it was shown in the image space, but probably not to that extent.

Excluding the specificity of being in the image space, if we roughly estimate his combat power.

‘Similar to or slightly below that of Namgungik holding a sword.’

Roughly, depending on the level of transcendence and compatibility, you might be able to defeat even an A-rank monster by yourself.

I left the recovery room.

Anton wanted to leave the hospital right away, but he needed to be monitored, so he had to be hospitalized overnight.

“Not bad.”

The third-rate villain of the novel.

Anton Ivanov also failed to achieve the same achievements as he does now in the original work, and was given true education by the main character and left the body.

His presence will be a means to keep the main character in check, just like Baek Yu-ri and Namgung-ik, who would have been eliminated in the original work.

‘Of course, there was no law that the number would not be a handshake.’

My choices may have produced better results than the original right now, but in the long run, you never know.

Whether the number I put is a handshake or a player will be known in the not-too-distant future.

“My body is sore from just sitting there. Should I sweat a little and go to sleep?”

Coincidentally, the full moon hung in the night sky I looked up at.

There was one full moon, not three, not two.

After all, I like this one more than the three overly bright night sky.

“The next one is… .”

The academy’s first main episode, ‘The Sword that possesses people’, happened a little faster than the original.

Even the content and ending have changed.

The same goes for the devil worshiper case.

‘Even if events happen faster than I know. Even if the order is reversed, it’s absolutely not strange.’

Fortunately or unfortunately, I can’t touch the next episode.

Even if you follow the main character, it is fortunate that it is impossible to interfere and it is possible to observe from a distance.

There’s nothing I can intercept, so next episode passes.

As the next episode takes place during class, there is no choice but to be involved even if you don’t want to get involved.

“In the end, training is the only answer.”

I am weak.

Even Dook, who possessed that mighty power, was shattered by Kang Min-hyeok’s blow in the original work.

The situation was a little different from the original, but if you wanted to solve the case easily without saving Anton.

Kang Min-hyeok could have solved the case in the same way.

My strength has yet to reach even Kang Min-hyuk’s blow.

“after… .”

I adjusted my breathing.

It was known from the beginning.

My growth isn’t slow.

It may be slightly ahead of plan.

‘There is no need to be impatient. There are still 3 years left… .’

[It looks like an uninvited guest came.]

‘I know.’

Thanks to <Eye of Mind>, I was able to notice Kang Min-hyeok’s approach earlier than before.

It wasn’t long before I saw him.

If possible, I wanted to just pass by, but Kang Min-hyuk spoke to me.

“This is the recovery room right?”

“Did you come to visit Anton, too? The hospital visit is until 8 o’clock, so they won’t let you in.”

“Oh, did you? There are still many things I don’t know.”

performance.

Kang Min-hyeok is not interested in Anton.

It’s not Anton that he’s showing interest in, it’s me.

‘Damn it.’

Not good.

It’s not that I haven’t thought about getting close to Kang Min-hyuk.

As much as I learned that if the affinity increases above a certain level, one characteristic can be copied at random.

The possibility of obtaining Kang Min-hyeok’s unique trait, <player>, has arisen.

‘Even considering that, I thought that keeping my distance from Kang Min-hyuk would be advantageous for my future steps.’

I never thought Kang Min-hyuk would come first.

However, the feelings Kang Min-hyuk is showing towards me are not hostile.

If anything, it’s more like curiosity.

If that’s the case, there’s a high probability it’s because of what happened earlier.

‘Before defeating Doouk, should I have sent Kang Min-hyuk to another place… .’

No, he should have been left behind for any misfortune that might have happened.

If they couldn’t rescue Anton from the world of images, they needed someone to take down the resurrected Duuk.

‘Because Baek Yu-ri was strong, but Shin Sung-ah and Namgung-ik were not. If the two of them showed their skills, they wouldn’t need Kang Min-hyuk’s help.’

I don’t know why, but Namgung-Ik feels repulsed by the act of holding a sword.

Shin Seong-a has promised not to use magic with her grandfather, who is a great sage.

I wasn’t sure that two people alone would be able to defeat the resurrected Dueok.

‘It wasn’t a bad decision, but I didn’t think that choice would tighten my neck now… .’

It’s just that Kang Minhyuk showed curiosity about me.

It’s not a crisis.

“I just came out after confirming that he was awake. There are no injuries anywhere. You will be fine in class tomorrow.”

Minhyuk Kang passed me by, hoping he wouldn’t catch me.

“I’m glad. Thanks for letting me know.”

A brief thank you followed as he passed by, but he did not hold me.

‘… You have to be strong. More than now.’

I repeated that thought and headed to the training ground.

* * *

It’s been a week since the day of the ‘Possessing Sword’ incident.

[It was too hasty. If it wasn’t for the original woman, your body would have been shattered!]

‘… I know.’

I vomited blood from my mouth on my knees at the training ground.

It was hasty.

Due to the large amount of mana obtained after consuming the second shrine, the body is in a state like a bowl on the verge of overflowing.

In my current state, no matter how good the elixir is, I can’t confine the energy contained in it to my body.

Inevitably, I had no choice but to challenge the next level.

And the result of that attempt, as you can see, was a failure.

“Oh, saksinah… .”

Right after he coughed up a handful of blood from his internal wound, he could only taste the bitter taste of blood in his mouth.

I tried to reach the next stage by using the large amount of mana obtained through the shrine.

Not even half a penny was worth it.

‘I hit that much mana. I didn’t expect the door to open.’

Mana itself was enough to challenge the next level.

But if it fails, the quantity or quality of mana is not the problem.

It must be because of other things.

‘After all, it’s a lack of experience.’

In general, enlightenment is required to challenge higher levels.

And for that realization, it was important to gain more experience.

‘It’s because I fought with strong enemies one after another, but the number of fights itself isn’t that many.’

In addition, I have more records of fighting people than monsters, and my experience is too lopsided.

interpersonal warfare. They also prefer one-sided surprise attacks or ambush.

It was unavoidable.

‘An enemy that can be said to be the final target. Kang Min-hyeok’s presence must have also influenced my biased experience.’

In the end, the enemy I have to deal with in the end is not a gigantic Dragon or the Great Devil, but a single human being.

Personally, I think that facing a dragon or a demon has a higher chance of winning.

This is a kind of fate that came about because I am Hanzo, an assassin who has to kill the main character.

“Because of the actual experience of a monster… .”

Two weeks later, in the class that is the background of the third episode, there was an opportunity to experience monsters and practice.

It’s not about fighting alone, it’s a class about attacking artificially created dungeons with the crew.

‘If I ask for the understanding of the other members and defeat all the monsters by myself… .’

You won’t get enough enlightenment to reach the next level with just one battle, but it will somehow make up for the lack of experience.

I moderately wiped the blood from the corner of my mouth with the back of my hand.

“It means we have no choice but to maintain the status quo for a while.”

It was right after he confirmed that he could no longer increase his mana, and could not raise his level right away.

That doesn’t mean you can’t just sit back and relax.

‘Let’s check the tools first.’

The flow of the circuit, which had been distorted due to internal injuries caused by runaway mana, returned to normal.

Even with the help of <Relentless Life Force>, it was impossible to restore the flow of the circuit in just a few minutes.

Here, the <Hibernian> feature, which I thought was a bad idea, was surprisingly helpful.

-Manipulates metabolism, minimizing energy consumption.

I never thought that manipulation of metabolism would have an effect on recovering from internal injuries.

It would have been absolutely impossible with just one normal trait.

However, the ability to see the invisible and feel the invisible is added to this.

The nonsense was possible.

‘If it had been increased to the mana recovery speed, it would have been perfect. That’s too greedy.’

If that were possible, <Hibernate> would have to be a rare talent rather than a common talent.

I took out the daggers I had hidden inside my wrists and put them between my fingers.

Then, it was thrown at a target that was placed moderately on the wall.

Six daggers were embroidered in a row on a metal target.

‘I threw it in moderation. Throwing jokjok will hit.’

The memorization that I carry is not limited to the knives on my wrist.

I took out various forms of memorization hidden all over the body and threw them.

hit all.

None of them didn’t fly the way I intended.

‘I don’t think I need to train any more for the secret technique, especially the throwing technique.’

It was common for him to fight against enemies whose daggers could only help with containment.

Although there were not many cases where memorization was used in practice.

Even if I couldn’t do it, I practiced how to deal with memorization at a frequency of once every three days.

“Since I got <Mind’s Eye>, my accuracy has increased noticeably.”

Before obtaining <Eye of the Mind>, the accuracy would have dropped by 30% compared to now.

How to throw in order to hit the memorization exactly where it was aimed.

The trajectory was clearly visible.

-Maximize synesthesia and recognize the surrounding environment.

The sense gained through <Eye of the Mind> made the current hit rate.

He was a guy who ate three traits and paid off his growth.

‘It’s rare that today is a day to train alone. Should I practice this one too?’
