You couldn't avoid injuries during training.
In the other world, while training with the sword, I sustained sword-related injuries. When I was studying articulations, I broke multiple bones.
The blond guy is a regenerative type hunter. He can heal from this kind of injury in an instant.
"'Theory class?' I didn't think that you would be interested in theory classes. After all, hunter Kim TaeYang doesn't seem to be an intellectual type of person. Oh, I'm not neglecting you. Oh, so you like to study? "
This guy had changed.
These past few days, he has been training even harder. Not only that, while sparring, he tried his best. And today, out of nowhere, he said that he wanted to take theory classes.
'Weird.' He's not the type of person that's interested in theory.
Now that I think about it carefully, most guild recruits were people that had finished their bachelor's degrees. Some have even completed their masters.
'So he likes to study as well as use his body, huh?'
Kids nowadays are undoubtedly built differently.
I smiled. Even if the other person is younger, there's something to be learnt from everyone.
"Then, shall we have audio-visual classes today?"
Kim TaeYang smiled, although a little while ago, he was trembling as if he had been hurt somewhere.
2 weeks passed.
"You've trained well, Kim."
"Thanks, coach."
The blond guy had a stern expression on his face. The self-centered, egotistical guy was nowhere to be seen.
The other trainers laughed after witnessing how much he had changed.
They say that if they leave me with an angry wolf, it will end up becoming a gentle lamb.
But that wasn't it. That was just a side effect of my heartfelt passion for teaching.
"That concludes our short training boot camp."
"Short...?"
"Oh, you're right. It was short indeed."
A young adult felt like he was the main protagonist of a movie just because he had awakened. It happened to a lot of people.
But, the blond guy had just discovered the brutal reality of society's expectations.
In that sense, I was probably some kind of mentor to him.
"Tomorrow, you're going to the Instance Dungeon, right?"
"Yes, I'll do my best."
"Yes, yes. I think that you're going to do a great job. It seems like the Instance Dungeon is in the amusement park of Anyang. You know how to get there, right? You have to get there by 21:00. "
Right after I finished talking, the blond guy seemed startled. Why is that?
"Uhm... Coach?"
"Yes."
"There's something I wanted to ask you about. "
"What is it?"
"Are you busy tomorrow?"
I looked at him suspiciously. Why was he asking me that? I mean, the answer is obvious.
I started to work as a trainer for two reasons.
The first one was to be able to enter dungeons. The second one was money. No, I'm not someone who cares about superfluous stuff like money.
If possible, I don't want the people I've trained to die. I'm being a hundred percent honest. I wonder if the blondie realizes that I'm such a great person.
"I'm going to be Hunter Kim TaeYang's support tomorrow."
"... "
"I wasn't expecting you to cry tears of happiness."
His tears moved me. The truth will always come to light.
It was finally the day of my wake-up call to awaken. I mean, the blondie's first dungeon raid.
I was getting ready to go to work when my roommate, the Lord of another world, spoke to me.
"Hey, you've received your salary. Right? "
"Huh?"
Yes, it was true that I had received my salary.
But, how did she know about that? Had she used one of the special abilities of the priest, the 'Eyes of Truth'?
There's no way that could have happened.
I closed the door.
"It's a shame you can't go to the dungeon. What's the purpose of becoming a hunter if you're a weakling who gets knocked down by a cold? Let's just train. Your house is rather large, is it not? Let's just use your house. Why are you not laughing? Obviously, it was a joke. "
Kim is a regenerative type hunter. He clearly said that he was sick, but he now seemed to be fine.
Isn't it nice to be a regenerative hunter? I'm sure he wasn't faking it.
The Anyang Amusement Park was a popular hangout for celebrities.
But one day, a gate appeared at the entrance.
Because they were unable to close the gate, the energy of the other world began to gather around it. That's how the gate turned into a dungeon.
This land has deteriorated to the point of becoming uninhabitable. There were no humans living here. It also didn't have any animals or plants growing in it.
These regions were claimed by life forms that humanity had never seen before.
Food trucks had been replaced by stores that sold and purchased weapons and magical stones. The local economy revolved around hunters.
"We buy damaged weapons or defensive gear!"
"This isn't the ordinary potion that you'll be able to find everywhere and anytime."
These were the people who bought and sold magic-related items. They still didn't know what kind of harm being exposed to magic could do to their bodies. Furthermore, monsters may appear at any time. However, in order to make money and live comfortably, many people opened shops in these areas.
"2 members of the Hwarang Guild checked. Isn't there a top-tier hunter with you? If that's the case, you'll be limited to the first floor. "
"The first floor is more than enough."
The blond guy's license was checked by the security at the dungeon door. Then he double-checked my identification, which had been issued by the gym where I worked.
The guard was a soldier employed by the government.
These individuals were in charge of assisting novice hunters in danger and arresting hunters who committed crimes, among other things.
They were basically armed police.
"Good luck with your hunt."
After the guard saluted them, they stepped inside the dungeon.
"Coach. Something feels odd," Kim said while looking at a tent at the entrance of the dungeon.
The entrance to the dungeon was formed by magic.
"Consider yourself walking into the ocean. You'll be able to breathe once you're inside. So don't be worried. Oh, I almost forgot to tell you something. Because there is magical power mixed in with the oxygen, the concentration is different here. "
After saying that, I entered the dungeon. As I moved across the tent, my body began to shake slightly.
The blond guy followed me.
I could feel fresh air entering my lungs every time I breathed.
I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. I could sense particles from within my body awakening.
"Hunter Kim, isn't the air around here fresh?"
"It smells a little bit fishy, but yeah."
The air inside the dungeon had been normalized.
The suspicious smell emanated from somewhere within this building. Someone was most likely slaughtering creatures.
Someone covered in blood was approaching us.
"Oh, teacher HyunBin! Did you come here for another test? "
"Hunter Kim CheolSoo, you have the appearance of a Hongik Ingan. Have you earned good money? "
"Hongik Ingan? Oh, hehehe. I was covered in blood because I'm still not used to using blades. Since I've earned a decent amount of money, I thought of going back. Do you want to go out for a drink later? "
"Today is going to be a difficult day. It's my first dungeon session with him, so... Oh, I guess I mentioned that before. But, hunter Kim CheolSoo, you're skilled with a blade. Your technique's angle is the only issue. That is why you are always covered in blood. This occurs because you are still missing the fundamentals. Cut in the same direction at all times. One of these days, come to the center. I believe you will be able to solve this problem quickly."
Kim CheolSoo listened to what I said with a confused look on his face. The blond gave him a pitiful look.
Huh? What? Is there something I'm not aware of?
"I still believe I need a lot of work. After all, simply learning isn't enough. I'm hoping I'll get used to hunting soon! "
"Oh, it's already past midnight! We'll see you next time! Also, our guild's leader requested that you call her if you awaken!"
He left the dungeon as quickly as he could after saying that.
I was a little disappointed with the result.
If I was successful in selling a training package, I would receive a huge commission. The salary was higher than that of regular training. Of course, I wasn't doing it for monetary gain.
If I completed a training program, I was given the opportunity to work as a supporter. This meant that my chances of awakening rose.
If I, who was the strongest in another world, awakened, I was sure I'd be able to clear every single dungeon.
I'd be able to bring peace to the world. And with it, I'd get fame, money, and women, among many other things. But these weren't the reasons why I wanted to awaken.
I'm feeling great tonight. So please, let me awaken once more.
