YM778.TV Chapter 51
He established a mana reactor.
However, this is an item that cannot be used right away.
“At the very least, it needs to be dedicated to the level of the kids before I can use it.”
If I overcome the trials I impose in this space overflowing with mana, I should be able to accumulate an immense amount of mana.
But currently, there is no one who meets those conditions.
Abel, who has unique blood, and can handle an irresistible power, might be the closest.
“But the Wargnacht is meaningless.”
His… or her power is an irresistible one.
A concealed power with a disposition to reject mana.
An intangible force, moving like psychic energy,
Seon Woo-hyun seems capable of trying.
“It’s more complete than I thought.”
He recalls while looking at Seon Woo-hyun.
In some ways, he seems similar to me.
The feeling of returning after losing everything in the most complete prime.
“So, that’s the issue.”
He built a towering tower without laying the foundation.
Originally, it should have collapsed long ago, but he forcibly erected it with a power called “specialty.”
“It feels like building a tower and making flying bricks.”
And if it’s Seon Woo-hyun, he won’t be building from the foundation; he’ll be out looking for flying bricks again.
“That seems right.”
In this world, that’s the way to go.
However, I’m a bit hesitant.
“…Because the power is too comfortable.”
Not as much as me, but characteristics created by things equivalent to him.
Providing the most perfect abilities without any cost.
Is there really no cost?
‘No way.’
There’s no way I can possess such power without any cost.
‘Well, such concerns are all luxurious.’
While there is a need to prepare for the future yet to come, worrying prematurely is a fruitless endeavor.
I headed straight to the training room.
《Agility +1 increases.》
《Mind +1 increases.》
《Skill +1 increases.》
‘I roughly understand the physical aspect.’
But I still can’t grasp the mind or skill.
According to Yoo Eun-chae, skill allows one to handle acrobatics well, and the mind possesses the ability to erode or break the power of anti-magic, curses, and illusion spells.
‘I want to learn other attributes as well.’
But I can’t.
The moment I tried to learn the spatial attribute, it was blocked as if the vessel were full.
《Attribute, Spatial (B) learned.》
《Inherent trait, Eternity fills the vessel, Spatial (B) becomes inactive.》
Originally, Han Seo-jin had the inherent trait of Eternity.
By possessing his body, Eternity evolved into Eternity.
I thought the vessel had widened accordingly.
‘But the original Han Seo-jin became a demon king without such things.’
The Demon King.
Sharpening one unique trait, Han Seojin was called the Eternal Demon King, trampling over the world.
“He’s on par with that guy.”
Chungryong King, Belzebuth.
The one who gave me the final enlightenment in my second life.
Just from the aftermath of our fight, three neighboring countries vanished.
On top of that, the entire empire’s capabilities were focused on me.
With those capabilities, one could say it’s similar to the end of at least the third life.
“At least, if he’s on par with that guy….”
It’s right to turn a blind eye with a unique trait.
However, time is scarce now.
“It’s almost time for class.”
It’s time to teach the students.
I’m looking forward to it a little.
“They say teaching is more effective than expected.”
There’s a saying like that.
Teaching is a way of learning.
The saying that one learns while teaching didn’t really apply to me.
It was natural, of course.
Magic and martial arts.
About that, I looked forward to the end.
Unless it’s a genius with transcendent abilities or extraordinary talents, it can’t even give me inspiration.
However, the unique characteristics are different.
The unique traits being used here with a mysterious power give me tremendous inspiration.
‘Each one is interesting.’
And among the traits, there are peculiar connections.
By combining traits that fit regardless of rank, they create synergy.
‘Not just addition or multiplication…’
They possess powers reaching the level of squared values.
That’s the thing called traits.
Moreover, traits can evolve through magic or martial arts.
‘Of course, the mediocre ones might degenerate there.’
Certainly, they will come out.
Those who will evolve there.
And I am confident that some of them will come out among the students I am teaching.
‘Should I go teach them little by little?’
*
This time, I gathered all the kids.
“What mischief are you up to again, gathering everyone?”
Yoo Eun-chae raised her hand and asked.
“Ah, I think I know! You recently had an artificial vein installed, so what are you going to do with that?”
I ignored Yoo Eun-chae’s words and replied, “I’m about to start advanced training.”
“Advanced training?” It was Nam Hye-rin who responded to my words.
“Yep.”
Yoo Eun-chae spoke up, “Doesn’t that hurt?”
She was shivering, wrapping her body around herself.
“Doesn’t it hurt? Well, you might lose consciousness, and there could be a slight damage to your mana circuit or danjeon, but…”
“That’s abuse!”
“It’s okay, it’s okay. Do you really think I’d leave you guys alone up to that point?”
“Well, that’s true, but…”
“Anyway, before we start the advanced class, I thought of testing you all once. Since this test will also be included in the evaluation.”
I turned my gaze away from Yoo Eun-chae and looked around.
10 people.
Unlike the first time, their eyes were alive. The boring gazes were now filled with hostility.
Professor Alves’s respect deepened even more.
Still, the eyes of the other nine were fierce.
“Who should I kill?”
The way she lives is a bit elusive to me, but…
“Well, okay.”
I had to start letting go gradually.
I pondered a lot on my way here today.
A lot, really.
Should I increase the weight of the iron ring and release the monstrous thing?
Or should I push the kids off the cliff and cast spells from below?
“Well, that would be really fun.”
Growth is slow.
Lately, it seems like I’ve lost my motivation.
So, after careful consideration, I decided to choose the most interesting thing.
“I taught you with a compassionate heart.”
“…”
“….”
“Why is everyone suddenly so quiet?”
“Um, is there a reason?”
I guess when you teach, you inevitably accumulate resentment. It’s like Sparta.
“That’s right. Pretending to do physical training, crawling up the cliff, only to be pushed back down when you’re in last place, or after betting on lifting a weight more than twice your body weight, being pushed into the swimming pool.”
There seemed to be a considerable amount of resentment.
It’s better this way.
“So, this time, I pondered to give you motivation, especially.”
“What were you pondering about?”
“To advance to intensive training, you need to detach from the basics. However, increasing the intensity in the current classes won’t lead to significant skill improvement.”
Left hand hanging behind, the right hand extended forward.
Before the fight, the basic stance.
“Well, chatting like this is amusing. The crucial thing is the actual combat, isn’t it?”
“Well, no way…”
“Originally, no way catches people. You guys, individually talented but ever tried coordinating or combining your strengths?”
The students raised their weapons.
I looked around.
I roughly knew their levels.
“There are some sinister ones hiding their strength.”
Only three, though.
My eyes narrowed.
However, they weren’t a threat to me.
“I won’t use my left hand.”
The right hand, usable as the main weapon, was sufficient.
“Slowly, I need to loosen up my body.”
My body was almost complete. Enough to handle a Fengshinbo without difficulty.
That revealed one outcome.
—
“Come at me, all of you.”
“Are you really not using your left hand?”
“You’ll regret those words.”
Yoo Eun-chae and Wi Gun-ak stood before them and spoke.
With a steady rhythm, Wi Gun-ak was loosening his hands.
Seon Woo-hyun quietly stepped forward.
*
Seon Woo-hyun.
The chosen one.
Though he’s dubbed as such, his true nature leans towards that of a psychopath.
He doesn’t hesitate to use any means necessary for personal gain.
He doesn’t spare a thought for empathy, but then again, he does most everything else.
You could call him a villain.
It’s fitting, considering how broken he is.
“No, it’s natural.”
This world divides between the superhuman and the non-superhuman.
Much like the old caste system between nobility and commoners.
In a world where strength rules, the weak are trampled, stripped of all they have.
In such a world, Seon Woo-hyun chose to take rather than be taken from.
He takes everything and saves the world by devouring it all.
That was Sunwoo Hyun’s attitude towards the world.
“I’m coming for you!!”
“Oh, how dare you threaten your master with death.”
“I’m coming, I’m coming!!”
Sunwoo Hyun was running to the end of cruelty.
With broken teeth, his pronunciation was distorted.
When Sunwoo Hyun first stepped forward, he was knocked down in one blow, and that’s when his teeth fell out.
Perhaps that’s why.
With blurred vision, he aimed at Han Seojin.
Bam!
Sparks flew from Sunwoo Hyun’s sword.
A skill that only those who have reached the pinnacle of martial arts can use!
But Sunwoo Hyun was not at the pinnacle.
He had only found the ability to substitute sword energy like Han Seojin.
A red light flickered, targeting Han Seojin from all sides. Each sharp sword energy thread aimed at Han Seojin.
However.
“Try to distribute your strength more effectively. You’re wasting too much.”
Han Seojin dodged like a catfish, avoiding every attack effortlessly.
What he couldn’t avoid, he casually brushed away with one hand.
‘What’s that again?’
An unheard-of trick.
“This might hurt!”
Abel’s blood spear flying from behind, Shin Yura’s magic, and arrows from Yuseollang and memorizations from Jo Gaeun – they all targeted Han Seojin’s every defense.
“Disappear.”
In an instant, Han Seojin vanished.
‘What kind of sorcery is this?’
Inherently, it’s incredibly fast. Yet, it disappears as if performing dangerous teleportation.
Avoiding students’ attacks with finesse, only Sun Woo Hyun is the focus of the attacks.
Sun Woo Hyun attacks with both hands wielding knives based on his attributes.
“Too shallow.”
Han Seojin lightly laughed, grabbing Sun Woo Hyun’s head.
Bang!
From Noble mtl dot com
Slammed him onto the ground.
“Die, you damn teacher!”
Seo Boram, wielding a sword larger than herself, rushed at Han Seojin.
Simultaneously, Nam Hye Rin appeared from behind.
Kwoong!
The appearance of the Emperor’s Divine Form. It was Nam Gungsega’s martial form, the Emperor Sword Form.
“It might hurt a little.”
“We’ll pay back at least half of what we received!”
The two were engaged in a fierce battle.
“Nice attempt!”
However, Han Seojin grinned as if enjoying the situation, clenched his fist, and extended it towards Seo Boram.
Wham!
“Boram has weak lower body strength.”
He tossed Seo Boram aside with a single blow. Then, with a swift spin on his axis using his leg as the pivot, he raised one leg.
“Hyerin has a big opening.”
Each leg.
In other words, he unleashed a kick.
Yoo Eunchae watched the scene unfold and recited an incantation.
‘No, I knew this was coming!’
Truly monstrous.
The more he faced opponents, the more he felt it. He avoided most spells as a rule.
If he tried to use dangerous magic, it would interfere like a ghost. If that didn’t work, he would swat it away with his hand or use disappearing enchantments.
What was frightening was that even when other students tried to intervene, he immediately knocked down Shin Yura.
‘Didn’t expect a punch to the face.’
Honestly, it was a bit unexpected.
However, it was a problem, if you could call it that.
Most of the students were already lying on the ground with their legs stretched out.
And.
The fist that had blown away Shin Yura.
“Eunchae, you seem confident.”
“Ha, hahahahaha… Can you let me off just this once?”
“Will I let you off?”
“Damn it.”
It was coming towards me.
*
The Pungsinbo had risen more than I had expected.
“I got excited without even realizing it.”
Pungsinbo.
There are only two techniques in this form.
Just moving quickly and accelerating in dangerous moments.
I looked ahead.
Thud-thud – as I undid my hands, Wigung and Yoo Eunchae were watching me.
“You’ve already made it?”
Unbelievable.
I strongly felt that power from Wigung.
More overwhelming than before, or should I say, more forceful.
My body tingled slightly.
“But, is that person really a woman?”
Is it the price paid for storing the inexorable within my body?
It seems like the boundary has become thinner.
“Have you already succeeded?”
“That’s right.”
“Wow, your talent is amazing.”
“If it’s amazing talent, to what extent?”
“Talent that can reach the tip of my toes?”
“…I’ve been feeling this since last time, but Master, you’re really unfortunate.”
“Is that so?”
This is really a compliment.
Talent that can reach the tip of my toes.
‘Usually, only those who transcend.’
In other words, promotion.
Only those who can stand on an equal footing with the headmaster.
“Well, then I’ll go.”
“Sure.”
As I snapped my fingers, the ominous energy rushed toward me.
