Episode 6-The Person Without Talent

Choi So-ah took me to her private training center.

As much as she has the title of a war hero, I thought she would have a grand and great training ground, but she was a training ground that was small enough to do only the bare minimum.

“Have you ever fired a gun?”

“No.”

Before she was possessed, she had served in the military, but she shouldn’t have thought that she would be able to use the skills she had accumulated before she was possessed.

Because there is no way you can fire a gun right now while your posture is messed up even if you run right away.

“A guy who has never fired a gun, please teach me how to shoot a gun? Sounds funny.”

She picked up one of her wooden swords rolling off her floor and threw it at me.

“Wield it.”

“Okay.”

The more I swung the sword, the more stern her expression became.

“It seems that he has no talent for swordsmanship.”

This time it was a window.

Likewise, as time passed, she only had wrinkles on her face.

************

“Haa…”

Min-ah let out her big sigh.

She was called a war hero, and the reason she came to give her lessons at her academy could be seen as a kind of volunteer work.

During her battle with the monster, she was seriously injured and she decided to retire at an early age, but she still wanted to work for humanity.

When she heard that she had a cadet who wanted to learn gun skills, she immediately came to her 3rd academy.

“Aren’t you that talented?”

“I don’t want to kill you, but…”

Min-ah thought for a while and then nodded her head.

Her cadet talent, which she took on, was bad enough to be called the worst of all her Awakened ones.

It was not simply a matter of weak physical ability and weak magic power.

She showed no talent whatsoever in all the uses of her body.

‘A guy with such a mind is a b*tch in body…’

She wouldn’t have felt this pity if her cadet was in a bad state of mind and despaired of her own damn talent, deciding to live her life as a meager and just living it.

In that case, the mental state of her cadet was not good, and she could be comforted by the fact that she hadn’t made an effort.

‘Even in this situation, his eyes are very clear.’

Cadet Lee Joo-eun was a strong human being. She

Was well aware that her body was weak and that her own talents were not very good, but she was a wonderful human being who somehow managed to find her way to live and hold on to her will.

She has no talent to wield a sword or spear, so she knows that she will be despised by other awakened people, but she came to learn gun skills. Was burning

Her eyes were not those of a person in despair.

It was an intense gaze that tried to do its best in the situation given to it.

It was a formidable will.

If talent is holding back my ankles to this extent, I could blame the world for not being able to grow because of my talent…

‘A guy like this must have talent…’

It was very unfortunate that no talent was given to a person with a strong will enough to be called a hero even with ordinary talent.

“Then I can’t help it.”

Lee Joo-eun bowed her head to her.

“Thank you for watching, even for a short amount of time. We’ll see you again if we get to know each other later.”

“Where are you going? I have no intention of giving up on you.”

He was a cadet with a mind too brilliant to give up.

“Isn’t there no answer if you don’t have talent in gun skills?”

Firearms was a skill that Awokeners rarely learned.

There is the advantage of being able to stably produce good power if you have the minimum skill, but since the growth of Awakeners far exceeds that, there is no such thing as an Awakener who learns gun skills in the world.

I have no talent for such gun skills, so what the hell am I supposed to do?

In fact, it was easier to give up.

You just need to accept that you have no talent and live a mediocre or worse life.

However, Lee Joo-eun was a very pitiful human being to live like that.

Choi So-ah had no intention of leaving Lee Joo-eun alone.

“If you don’t have the ability to handle your body, you’ll have to use your brain. I’ll share with you the experience I’ve gained from battles with monsters. I won’t bring you strength strong enough to fight on the front line. It will bring you enough power to do it for one person.”

Lee Joo-eun responded right away without thinking about Choi So-ah’s serious look.

“I’m grateful, but it’s okay. I don’t want to take up the hero Choi Choi’s time.”

*******

‘I did it by chance, but it’s as expected.’

She showed no talent for anything that uses her body, so I expected that she wouldn’t have the talent she deserved in gun skills.

Of course, no matter how talented she is, she will continue to learn gun skills.

The talent Choi So-ah is talking about is a talent for being able to serve one person as an Awakened person, not a talent for being an ordinary soldier.

I probably won’t be able to forget Choi So-ah’s sad expression while looking at me.

She also has a strong love for humanity, so she doesn’t have talent like me, but she has a strong will, but when she sees a strong person, she feels sorry for her and can’t earn it.

‘You can use your head if your body is weak?’

That’s right.

The problem is that the information I have is far greater than that of Choi So-ah, and Choi So-ah’s time is not light enough to be used for conveying her experiences to someone like me.

At that time, it would be a million times more efficient to pass on skills to talented kids like Yang Ga-hyun and Lee Seo-yeon.

So she politely declined, but she tried very hard not to force me to stand next to her.

“Are you leaving school already?”

“Yes, I didn’t take any extra training.”

The instructor guarding the main gate glared at me with disapproving eyes.

If a cadet doesn’t take additional training, you’ll think he’s a properly perverted guy.

A cadet’s refusal of additional education was a completely different problem from a high school student’s refusal to attend a palm.

Because it was no different from not doing basic activities as a cadet.

‘That’s why you can’t make and listen to additional training that doesn’t exist.’

Starting from the next class, you can enter the empty seat, so you just have to be patient for today.

Leaving behind the instructor’s stinging gaze and leaving the academy, I saw a fairly developed street.

The Academy is a place to nurture Awakeners, and instructors from Awakeners were always on standby.

In addition, since it was the first place where awakened people appeared when monsters appeared, the commercial district was active near the academy.

It means that it is a town where there is faith that the awakened people will come to their rescue no matter what problems arise.

Land was expensive and the cost of living was high.

I walked slowly, leaving the developed streets behind.

Thanks to the academy’s influence, the active distance disappeared before even taking 500 meters.

A street of people who intermittently do what the government tells them to do and live on food distribution.

There were no shops on this street.

Every building was a shack with a size narrow enough for a family member or one person to lie down.

From the point of view of modern people, they were very pitiful people, but in the end times, those who lived to this extent belonged to the middle class.

Where can I get food? Where can I drink even dirty water? Where can i work

In this world, many people died because they could not afford one meal a week.

I kept walking out of the streets of those who were still given the opportunity to work for humanity.

Unlike the downtown area that ended in only 500 meters, the middle-class people’s area continued for several kilometers.

It was a bit far to walk, but it wasn’t too hard to walk this distance because it was always a walk.

“Keep it off…”

As soon as I set foot in the neighborhood where I live, I heard the sound of someone getting sick.

It was a common sound, so I neatly ignored it and moved through the collapsed buildings to my own comfortable nest.

-Kikii Iik

Everything has collapsed, and now only the first floor remains, and the interior of the apartment is completely destroyed.

This is where I live.

A place without any hope.

A place where only those who wait for death every day live.

A place where the young and the old who cannot work survive before they die without receiving food

I have lived there.
