Academy Life of a Career Hypnotist

Episode 79. Experienced Trainer’s Trial (1)

Meteor Shower National Team Qualifier.

The first day of orientation and light pruning was successfully completed.

“and. I was at a loss as to how I could sleep comfortably tonight, but it’s really thanks to you.”

10 pm. lights out time.

Oh Myung-Jun, who was lying on the bed opposite, said in an excited voice.

“Sleep well. If you take the test in the best condition, you will have less regret if you fail.”

“By the way, are you really a good guy? He also avenges people like me.”

“Don’t be burdened. I didn’t like sleeping in the same room as them.”

With the trio of arches eliminated early, our dorm gained peace. Two people were able to use the six-person accommodation spaciously.

For reference, there was no seat for the last remaining one from the beginning. When I asked the examiner, he said that one of the 3rd year seats in our dorm was vacant during the page numbering process.

“I definitely realized this time. I couldn’t believe the stories I heard around me straight away. Signal has too much bullsh*t.”

“That’s right.”

“Oh right. I have a classmate from the same class as me a little closer. I heard from him that famous seniors are coming out as assistants in this selection test?”

“A little while ago, you said that you shouldn’t believe the rumors as they are?”

“Yes, yes, but this is real! My friend saw the seniors come to the camp in person.”

It was a story I knew to some extent.

‘Those who have experience participating in the Meteor Shower, or seniors who are showing excellent performances externally even if they have not participated in the competition are coming as teaching assistants.’

In the selection process, three main officials are involved in the examination.

One is the instructor who leads the flow of the test. The two are examiners who observe students overall and score them in real time. The last three were teaching assistants.

The core task of the teaching assistant is an area that is difficult to notice from the eyes of faculty members. Because they are in the same position as each other, they can be measured because they are the same students, that is. It is to observe the realm of hidden talent.

‘Because there are adults who are intimidated in front of high-ranking people and cannot fully demonstrate their skills.’

Did you say that famous seniors will appear?

I remembered who the seniors who appeared as teaching assistants in the original work were.

‘I don’t think there was anyone who could be called a name.’

I asked just in case.

“Myungjun. Did you hear who the seniors who said they were coming as assistants were?”

“… … .”

“hello? Myungjun Oh?”

did you fall asleep I was lost in my thoughts for a while, so there was silence, but it wasn’t that long.

I slowly opened my eyelids that I had been closing to fall asleep. There was no answer, so I thought of looking at Oh Myeong-jun for a moment because I really wanted to sleep.

“Shh. Stay still. Unless you want to die.”

Inside the dorm where the moonlight shines in. A man wearing a black cotton mask was pointing a bow at my head.

It was an obvious intruder.

“… … .”

He did not display his genius hastily.

I didn’t feel the presence of people coming in, but before I knew it, it was a high-level enemy that was right in front of me. If he feels the energy of nature, he will probably shoot an arrow right away.

‘To dare to use a bow in Korea, where gun control has been lifted with the advent of adults.’

Even if you look at it, it’s an adult, not a normal person. In particular, in a world like the Psychic Age, there are only two cases of using romance weapons such as swords and bows. Either a really insanely strong adult or a mediocre adult.

The assassin in front of me was the former.

“Kim Do-yoon. Have you ever heard of the term retribution?”

“… … .”

“What he has done in the past. If you think of the women you’ve made all the time cry about, you’ll be able to meet a day like this one day… … . Have you ever thought about it?”

“… … .”

“Answer me.”

I opened my mouth slowly.

“Isn’t there a chance to take responsibility?”

“responsibility. be responsible you?”

“I don’t know how far you’ve researched me, but you seem to know quite a bit. Then, wouldn’t you also know about my recent activities?”

“Humans are not creatures that can be rewritten. It could be a smoke screen operation.”

“Then, how far will the smoke screen operation go?”

The arrowheads reflected in the moonlight flashed blue.

“It’s also a smoke screen operation.”

“It didn’t mean that, but it meant that I wanted to see how far my changed image would go.”

“why me.”

“At least now Shin So-ra must be happier than before. I don’t think you would want to destroy it with your own hands.”

Seruk.

The arrowhead, which was poised to crush my head at any moment, is directed downward.

“Could you please stand up for a moment? A guest has arrived, but I don’t think it’s polite to lie down and stare at it.”

“Don’t even think about doing anything stupid.”

I spread my hands out to show that I had no will to resist.

The first thing I saw when I got up halfway from the bed was Oh Myung-jun’s condition. He was shivering as the spear was pointed at someone else.

“Even though I am, the friend in front of me is not guilty of anything.”

“It’s troublesome to cause a commotion.”

The man with the spear answered.

‘I’m afraid someone might not be Shin So-ra, a group of fanatics. Not to mention violent behavior.’

The two men and women who broke into the dorm were Shin So-ra’s three loyalists.

The man aiming a spear at Oh Myeong-jun is Kwak Min-ki in the second year. The woman in front of me who was aiming a bow at me was Cho Seung-ah, a 3rd grader.

‘I can’t see it here, but maybe Jeong Gyu-min is somewhere.’

Like Cho Seung-ah, he is in the 3rd year, but he used a super-sword.

All of these guys’ skills are genuine. That’s because they only appear as helpers in the second half of the main episode.

In particular, Jeong Gyu-min, who is not here, is the most powerful among the talented people who can face off against the end-spec Yuseong.

“Senior Cho Seung-ah. Is there anything you want from me?”

As an opponent who could die without being able to resist, my tone became more serious and dignified than ever before. Once life is attached, it is a law to plan for the future.

“You know me? I was wearing a mask.”

“In this day and age, old-fashioned like a bow… The only person who can use noble weapons is Seungah Cho from Signal.”

“He’s a junior who knows something.”

“Idiot. You’re turning it around.”

Kwak Min-gi, who was standing next to him, quickly tackled him.

“Anyway, if there is anything you want from me, please tell me honestly. If there is anything I can help with, I will help.”

“huh. Right now, by Shin Sora’s side… … .”

“With just one word from me, you might get a chance to stroke Shin So-ra’s hair for 10 minutes.”

From nob le mt l. com

Jo Seung-ah did not answer for a moment.

“Hey, asshole. Surely you are not swayed by such absurd temptations?”

Kwak Min-ki, who was wary of Oh Myeong-jun, glanced at Jo Seung-ah.

“Kwak Min-ki.”

“what.”

“It’s not 3 minutes, it’s 10 minutes. It’s tripled the best time I managed to get from Sora?”

“Wake. Haven’t we forgotten our purpose?”

Looking at the atmosphere of the conversation between the two, it was true that they were the ones I knew.

“Senior Cho Seung-ah.”

“Forget about it. I just peeked it out to test you.”

“If you stand by my side now and oppose senior Kwak Min-ki, I’ll give you a 15-minute hug Shin So-ra ticket.”

Without hesitation, Jo Seung-ah aimed her bow again.

“sorry. Please understand my situation.”

Not to me, but to Kwak Min-gi.

“Somehow it seemed like this! This is why I tried to make you lookout!”

“Lay down your weapon and surrender.”

“Do you really believe what he says?”

“Contrary to what I heard, you are very polite. And after talking, it seems that he is not a bad junior than I thought.”

“You are being tricked!”

“It’s a woman’s intuition. My intuition has never been wrong.”

『Pondris pheromone』, which was cumbersome, shines here. Since it’s in battle mode, it won’t be affected much, but it didn’t seem to work at all.

“Seniors. Could it have been done like this? I understood the intentions of the seniors, but the roommate over there is really feeling threatened for his life.”

“Tsk. Ehyo. everything is ruined I tried to discipline myself with the dignity of a senior.”

Kwak Min-gi sighed and took the spear away. Oh Myung-joon, who was so frightened that he had tears in his eyes, still had a face that made him wonder what the situation was.

“Kim Do-yoon junior. That’s great. You should have felt the pressure, but you look quite calm.”

Seungah Jo said.

“I am a specialist in that field.”

Usually, the commonly used combat stance is a form of making a ‘mana shield’, simply put. The feeling of continuously consuming one’s own magic power and raising the resistance against the opponent’s nature.

‘But it can be said that it only scratches the surface of the battle posture.’

If you apply this more. Like the method Kwak Min-ki and Cho Seung-ah used now, they can exude life through the battle posture. Opponents exposed to this lethal force were in such a way that their minds shrank.

of course. I was able to not be intimidated at all because I have a strong constitution in that respect.

“First of all, I would like to move. I’d like to put him to sleep for tomorrow’s exam.”

“At the same time, you take care of your friends. Friendship is great.”

“It hasn’t been long since we met, but we’re in the same grade.”

“huh. I was sure If it’s you, I think I can entrust Shin So-ra with just a little bit.”

“Leave it to anyone! Don’t do things your own way!”

Kwak Min-ki shouted out loud.

and.

“You guys have started again.”

As the door to the dorm opens, Shin So-ra is the last of the three loyalists. Jeong Gyu-min appeared.

Looking at him, Jeong Gyu-min met his gaze and said repeatedly with a kind smile.

“Kim Do-yoon. Those two are idiots by nature, so leave them alone and come out and talk about us?”

“All right.”

At first glance, he looked perfectly fine, but this guy was the most dangerous. It wasn’t just because he was the strongest among the three loyalists.

What would be a good way to concisely express the kind of person Jeong Gyu-min is? I was able to find a clear answer after a moment of trouble.

‘The male version of the wild forest.’

To be sure, there is no more suitable analogy.

***

Dormitory roof.

Along with me, Jung Kyu-min and Cho Seung-ah and Kwak Min-ki, who hurriedly followed, were there.

Only one.

I just wanted to elaborate on one thing that I said earlier.

‘It’s said that it’s the male version of Pyo Yu-rim, but the feelings Pyo Yu-rim has for me and Kyu-Min Jung’s feelings for Shin So-ra are a bit different.’

I was able to hear the difference directly from Jeong Gyu-min’s mouth.

“Shin So-ra is a special and precious existence to us. If I had to explain it in an easy-to-understand way, would it be the relationship between an idol and a fan? In fact, Shin So-ra did idol activities, and we got to know So-ra through that, so it wouldn’t be wrong.”

I knew that Shin So-ra was an idol.

From the original work, she was already popular, and she couldn’t use it. As much as that, there was a background that he had once jumped into the idol market, a job called the peak of popularity.

They gained explosive popularity with the feeling of being a so-called ‘underground idol’.

A good-looking personality and a style that dresses well. A graceful dance move with an outstanding body. He even received evaluations that he was attractive, saying that he would be good to be a voice actor with his unique, easy-going voice.

‘For this reason, I received numerous offers from the majors… . I heard that idols are nothing more than a means to achieve one’s dreams, and he refused.’

Where is that?

Shin So-ra had a history of working as a streamer besides being an idol. And in less than a year, the average number of viewers reached 20,000. I heard that it was quite popular in this industry as well.

“You may feel like an idiot. Getting the driving force of life by watching idols. The joy of being able to meet and get to know idols in person that you could only see under the stage or through the monitor. Still, you will never be able to know this one feeling.”

“What feelings do you mean?”

“It is said that a bad hand is extended to the person you hold dear… … Unpleasant!”

Whoa!

A wild wind blew up and a supersword appeared in his hand in an instant. The storm that erupted from the sword raised high in the sky tore the floating clouds in the sky like paper.

‘Even though I use so much strength, the magic wave pulse phenomenon doesn’t explode.’

Mana wave pulses appear when mana fluctuates wildly. In a word, it means that he is a strong man who can exert his mana stably while exerting such tremendous power.

strong. Even though I already knew that fact, there was a definite difference in realizing it on the spot.

“Even though the three of us have different directions, the ultimate goal is the same. Shin So-ra is happy. We know Shin So-ra’s past. Because she told me the old story with her own mouth.”

“okay.”

A strong bond that transcends simple fan sentiment. The foundation comes from the fact that those three heard about her past.

“I never specifically mentioned your name. Beings who died humanly without being able to get out of the swamp of life. He said that he was able to survive until now because he had such a grateful person who lifted him up from being half submerged in the swamp where the rotting corpse vibrated… . That’s just what I was told.”

“If you had known that far, you wouldn’t have pulled out your sword and threatened me like this.”

“Because if you think about the past that Sora told you about, you feel a sense of incongruity somewhere. We also felt something was off, and after investigating separately, we found out about you.”

He smiled sadly and continued.

“In the past, you were someone I could never forgive. I still wanted to forcibly tolerate you for Sora’s happiness. If you don’t do that, well. I’ll spare you this. It’s kind of hard to bear.”

sereung.

Before long, the extra-large sword pointed at me was trembling weakly as if expressing anger.

“Coming back to the point. I made my own compromises to suppress my feelings for you as much as possible. Even though everything you did to her was disgusting, it seemed like she cared for her very much. Even if those cherishing actions were to raise her ransom, I’m grateful that the beasts kept them from touching the child’s body. Even if he made that poor child live a life like a gisaeng. I’m just glad that her body has always kept it pure. Yes, you must consider yourself very fortunate. if it wasn’t If it wasn’t for that… … .”

――――!

A soundless, colorless, odorless, shapeless wave that trampled on all the laws of physics and could not feel any precursors was shot out as if passing through the side of my head.

Squeak.

It was quiet.

There wasn’t even wind.

However, the slash that passed by me made a red scratch on my cheek as if it were clearly present, as if to show off its presence.

“Because you must have already become a dead body before you even entered Signal.”

From nob le mt l. com

Jeong Gyu-min’s tone as he slowly drew back his sword was peaceful throughout. A smile hung on his lips, which still gave him a good impression. Maybe it’s because the eyes look clear.

At first glance, he didn’t seem very upset.

‘but.’

It wasn’t.

I saw it in my eyes. His eyes weren’t smiling at all.

“You are the seniors who were said to be coming as teaching assistants. Right?”

“okay. Originally, I didn’t plan to come, but I changed my schedule in a hurry. I wanted to know the plan because you persuaded Shin So-ra to go to the Meteor Shower.”

“One thing I can say for sure. Shinsora will be a great help to my goal, but it’s a goal I can accomplish without her. You can take it back if you are concerned.”

From nob le mt l. com

Jeong Gyu-min shook his head helplessly.

“I already tried to take you. And none of the three of us could break the boy’s stubbornness.”

“I just want you to know that I have no intention of harming Shin So-ra.”

“I know. You always treated the things you wanted to use with great care. yes? The problem was that when the value of the item fell, it was ruthlessly thrown away.”

“Not anymore… … .”

He cut off my protest and spoke softly.

“one more. I really don’t like the act of you trying to achieve something with Shin So-ra’s power. You know why even if I don’t tell you? Put your hand on your conscience, think of the past, and you will understand.”

“I said that the direction we pursue is different. I still haven’t heard what senior Gyu-Min Kyu wants from me. What do you want?”

“Simple. Your goals aren’t going the way you want them to. For that reason, I’ve been chasing all the way to the testing grounds of this tournament, which I’m not interested in. As teaching assistants, we will use our powers to the fullest, and treat you very harshly in the name of testing. You’d better be prepared. Just know that.”

From nob le mt l. com

Jeong Kyu-Min finished with those words and left the rooftop leisurely. Kwak Min-ki, who had been watching silently with his arms folded against the wall of the building, followed him without saying a word.

Lastly, Jo Seung-ah.

She was looking at me with an expression left to say.

“Kim Do-yoon junior.”

“yes. Seungah Cho.”

“You must keep the words you said at the dorm… … .”

“Stop talking nonsense and follow me! I ruined all the good atmosphere and sat down!”

Kwak Min-gi appeared again in a hurry and disappeared, dragging Jo Seung-ah by the back. Being dragged away with a sullen expression was the best part.

I laughed out loud.

I wondered if the trio of bullies would disappear, but this time a trio of fanatics appeared.

As expected, things seemed to be bothering me.

‘Be prepared? It makes me want to pass the exam even more because it pisses me off.’

I tried to find another way as soon as I fell. Now that this has happened, the only thing I can think of is that I must pass the selection process.

Shouldn’t a man’s pride be exercised at a time like this?
