Chapter 71

Chapter 71 - Standing still Seo-

joon really wondered if his eyes were wrong.

So I rubbed my eyes a few times, but the numbers on the screen didn't change.

“47.3%? Does this make sense?”

Even so, Seo-joon couldn't easily believe the figure.

It is also true that Seo-joon only listened to Hercules' lecture once.

If you added the first orientation lecture, it could be said twice.

However, it was only once that I heard a proper lecture.

It wasn't long before I was able to complete my daily tasks in one day, and I didn't have time to listen to lectures about going to save Mancheol and Demonic Castle.

“What is this...”

Seojun pressed Hercules' next lecture.

It was because I wondered if Hercules' explanation for this phenomenon would be in the next lecture.

< There is an unfinished task. >

< Please complete the task. >

“Oops...”

However, when I clicked on the next lecture, the lecture did not play with the pop-up window that popped up.

I felt like I had to do my daily assignments and check them out.

Seo-joon swallowed his regret and put his smartphone into his arms.

And just then.

“Seojun!”

A familiar voice came from behind Seo-joon.

Looking back, Seoyoon and Mancheol were hurriedly running.

After a while, Seo-yoon gasped for breath and approached Seo-jun first, followed by Man-cheol.

“Why did you two come out?”

When Seo-jun tilted his head and asked, Man-cheol answered with a disapproving tone.

“Why is the plague coming out? Then will you stay there?”

“I can’t stay still... that’s right.”

Seojun immediately nodded.

Now, in that hospital room, there were swordsmen and demons.

In the meantime, I fully understood the reason why I had no choice but to jump out when I thought I was lying all alone.

Mancheol looked at Seojun who nodded and said.

“Rather than that, you... did you really sell the Sword Master’s blue dragon sword?”

“Ah... that’s it.”

Seo-joon blurted out and evaded the answer.

However, for Mancheol, that could be a sufficient answer.

“Have you seen such a madman... I knew right away that you were a madman... Really me.”

Beyond being ridiculous, Mancheol had an expression that made him wonder if he was right.

“I will return it right away.”

“Patience.”

After Mancheol shook his head, Seoyoon spoke after him.

“By the way, Seojun-san. Are you okay?”

“As expected... Seoyoon is the only one who worries about me.”

For a moment, Seo-joon had the illusion that Seo-yoon looked like an angel.

I knew right away that the appearance was pretty, but even the heart was this pretty...

“It's fortunate. Then earn money quickly and bring the blue dragon sword. Otherwise, Grandpa might really kill you.”

“......”

Seojun’s shoulders drooped for no reason.

And seeing Seo-jun like that, Seo-yoon burst into a small laugh.

‘Well... I'm very fortunate just to get over it like this.'

So, Seo-jun trudged away leaving Seo-yoon and Man-cheol behind.

And how many steps did you walk?

“Seojun oppa?”

Seo-joon was able to run into Soo-yeon running into the hospital.

Startle.

At the same time, I could feel the movement of Mancheol trembling backwards.

“dad?”

Sure enough, Soo-yeon's gaze passed Seo-joon and reached Man-cheol.

Mancheol's gaze also quickly reached Suyeon.

“dad!”

And the moment their eyes met, Soo-yeon ran to Man-cheol's arms.

Man-cheol hugged Su-yeon with a half-embarrassed expression.

Normally, Mancheol was rough and crude, but only to Sooyeon, Mancheol was infinitely weak.

“I... I don’t have to go to the Hunter Academy.”

Soo-yeon, who was held in Man-cheol’s arms, cried and murmured.

Then Mancheol didn't know what to do and started to wander around.

Seojun looked at the two of them without saying a word.

Su-yeon's mother sacrificed herself to save Su-yeon due to a sudden dungeon break.

Man-cheol got into an accident while earning money to send Soo-yeon to the Hunter Academy.

If even Man-cheol had gone wrong, would Soo-yeon be able to bear the guilt?

Could I have forgiven myself for not being able to do anything?

“I won’t do anything like a pro hunter. So...”

Perhaps Seo-joon didn't know that it wasn't just Demonic Castle and Man-cheol that he saved from that dungeon.

“Soo Yeon-ah said it’s okay. The doctor said there would be nothing wrong with treatment.”

“Sister...”

Did you say that a woman knows her heart best?

Or is it because Seoyoon also has such pain?

Eventually, when Su-yeon fell away from Man-cheol, Seo-yoon began to soothe Su-yeon.

It seemed like the elder sister was comforting the younger brother, so Seo-joon wondered when they had become so close.

Seeing Seoyoon like that, Seojun suddenly felt like he had to do something.

So, as I slowly approached Mancheol, Mancheol suddenly turned his head.

“mister? Are you crying too?”

“...Seapearl. What is crying?”

Contrary to the words, Mancheol's eyes were also bright red with a depressing voice.

Like that, Mancheol spat out his words only after a long time had passed.

“Seo Jun-ah.”

“yes.”

When Seo-jun answered, Man-cheol said.

“...Thank you for saving me. really.”

still a hoarse voice.

“What.”

It was only then that Seo-joon could feel that everything had been resolved.

#

Did you say that the most beautiful scenery in the world is the one where everything goes back to its original place?

As time passed, Seo-jun, Man-cheol, and Ma-seong were discharged from the hospital, and they were all able to return to their respective places.

However, there were a few things that were different from before, the first of which was that Maseong took Suyeon as a disciple.

The day Su-yeon came to the hospital.

Ma-seong suggested to Su-yeon if she would like to become his disciple.

And first of all, Soo-yeon was surprised that Man-cheol was in the same hospital room as Ma-seong.

Aside from all other reasons, it was because he had to learn mana practice in order to fully absorb the energy of the elixir.

“In that sense, shall we take the Mana Training course?”

If you think about it, it was also a lecture that I had to learn anyway.

Although there was Merlin's lecture, strictly speaking, it was about understanding mana, not mana practice.

That's why the mentor recommended listening to it in an intermediate lecture, but added that it doesn't matter if you listen to it as long as it becomes causal.

Above all, training is always done by Seo-jun himself.

At the time, I thought it would be good to learn when I can learn now that I have a large sum of 9.5 billion.

After thinking this far, Seojun opened the 1:1 message box and left a long message to the mentor.

The main point was that he was going to take a mana seniority lecture, and was asked if there was anything he could recommend.

“I said I'd be in touch within a week, so I'll be back soon.”

That's when I tried to put my smartphone in like that.

T-ring!

A notification sounded that a message had been replied to.

“what? Did you get an answer right away?”

A knife reply is also a knife reply, but it was a bit embarrassing for Seo-joon, who knew he would find it himself.

Whatever the case, it was enough to get information, so Seo-joon immediately opened the message box.

Hold on.

< There is an inner core method and a mana practice method, but if you seek stability, the inner core method. If you are looking for efficiency, you can choose the mana practice method. If you go to the mana practice method, Instructor Arthur or Siegfried is recommended ! And it seems that something is different depending on whether it is stability or efficiency, but first, the price was checked first. “Let’s check it out.” Seojun connected to the transcendent academy again and checked the lectures recommended by the mentor. [The first step towards the Uhwa Deungseon. Internal Mind Law. (Instructor: Jang Sam-bong)] [Anguish in the heart. meet the whole self Cheondunsimbeop (天遁心法). (Instructor: Swordsman Dongbin Lu)] [Aura of the Round Table that combines Merlin's wisdom and the know-how of the Knights of the Round Table. (Instructor: Arthur Pendragon)] [Power like a seething dragon. Dragon Aura. (Instructor: Siegfried)] "I feel it every time, but the instructors... I can't adapt." Seo-joon shook his head and checked the cost of each lecture. < Training fee: 10000000000 ? >

And all the same, 10 billion.

That was a crazy price.

“Oh...”

Still, it was somehow possible because there was 10 billion won from Maseong.

However, after spending 500 million to return the blue dragon sword, the remaining money is 9.5 billion.

5 billion was not enough.

Of course, from now on, if you collect them one by one through raids, you can collect 500 million.

However, Seo-joon's status was still a student, so it took some time to earn through dungeon raids.

However, he couldn't bring the blue dragon sword and sell it, so he couldn't.

Now, there was only one way for Seo-joon to earn a lump sum of money at once.

Seo-jun quietly approached Seo-yoon and said carefully.

“I... Seoyoon.”

“yes?”

Seeing Seoyoon answering with a slight surprise, Seojun immediately told the business.

“Is there an academy competition in the near future?”

“A contest?”

Seoyoon tilted her head.

Then he said to Seo-joon with a puzzled expression.

“Could it be...you need money again?”

Seojun nodded slowly.

Then Seo-yoon jumped up from her seat and shouted at Seo-jun.

“no! Where the hell do you spend your money? Money every time! money! Are you singing?”

“Oh no... that's...”

Seo-jun had no words to reply to Seo-yoon's sudden words.

And is it because of Seo-jun's reaction?

“What kind of money bug are you raising?”

Seoyoon was really absurd.

That would also be the case because Seoyoon knew that Seojun had received a considerable amount of money from Maseong.

I don't know the exact amount, but it must have been a huge amount since I received it in the name of the cost of my life.

Because it was the life of a demon.

But after only a few days, they say they need money.

Does this bastard money bug earn money like that and then look for money again?

To be honest, even a money bug wouldn't eat money like this.

What's even more absurd is that Seo-joon was living in a single room even though he was earning money like that.

When she found out about that fact, she really felt so ridiculous...

So, with an honest heart, when Seo-jun said that he had received money from Ma-seong, he thought he would at least buy a house.

And I knew how to buy a nice car with a little extravagance.

Why isn't owning a sports car a man's dream?

However, Seo-joon still lives in a single room.

Instead of an expensive sports car, he takes a taxi.

Where are you going to spend that much money?

Does the money even evaporate?

And the reason I wanted to become a professional hunter in the first place was to earn money to spend in such a place.

But looking at Seo-joon, it seemed like he was just trying to earn money to spend money.

To be honest, even if I decided to write it, I wouldn't be able to write it like this.

“I will go crazy too.”

And in fact, Seo-joon was on the verge of going crazy.

No matter how this bastard's transcendent academy went on, no matter how much money he earned, there was no end.

The 27 billion Jecheon Daeseong lecture is far away, but the mentor said it was an intermediate lecture.

That means it's a high-level lecture, and the ‘Cheonwolyuseongbong' of Jecheondaeseong, which Seo-joon aims for, is said to be more powerful than that.

Seo-joon couldn't imagine how much he would receive.

“Haa...”

“Haa...”

Seojun and Seoyoon sighed in different ways.

Seoyoon then shook her head and said.

“There is a competition in the near future.”

“How much is the prize money?”

At Seo-jun's sudden question, Seo-yoon decided to just give up on her thoughts.

“If you win... 3 billion won.”

“Three billion!”

“But there is a problem.”

When Seo-jun tilted his head, Seo-yoon immediately continued.

“This competition can only be entered as a team.”

“A team?”

“yes. Up to three students from the same academy can participate.”

At Seoyoon's words, Seojun felt dazed for a moment.

It was also because the only students at Dream Academy were Minyul and Seojun.

Seojun slightly turned his head to look at Minyul.

“Aha! That’s how you do it!”

Min-yul was still training hard by himself while watching the secret level of the dark castle.

And with the Min-yul that Seo-joon had seen so far, even if they competed with the same team, they would do their part well enough.

In fact, maybe Seojun and Minyul.

Two people might not be enough.

However, according to the regulations, it was impossible to participate without three people.

That's why I had to find one more person, but I couldn't suddenly recruit students.

Above all, even if they suddenly recruited students, the question is whether they will be able to trust the students...

‘Hmm?'

At that moment, a figure passed through Seo-jun's mind.

It was a person who suddenly came to mind while looking at Min-yul, who was training alone as a secret star.

‘Suyeon?'

It was none other than Soo-yeon, who became the disciple of Maseong this time.
