42. Arches True Education
What is the most useful thing when making an ally? huge money? Or expensive items you can’t refuse? no. Those tangible things don’t make true allies. If you entice people with money or things. Because it goes over to the person who offers bigger money or goods.
The important thing in making a true ally is the psychological part. This person is truly on my side, thinking of me. The psychological part that leans on this affection.
People express this as ‘loyalty’ or ‘trust’. There are times when even merchants give up profits in order to maintain trust with customers, and there are cases where even criminals take huge losses to keep loyalty among themselves.
In a word, regardless of race, culture, or personality, the emotional part is more efficient in making allies than anything else. A mind that will not change even if you give hundreds of billions of dollars. There’s no way I can turn that mind around. That’s why Lee Hyun-seung thought it was an opportunity when Ryu Nam-gi was hit.
“Because I am Lee Hyun-seung, talk to me. And do it in moderation. Take that foot off before I kill you.”
Ryu Nam-gi is one of the men who received a weapon from Lee Hyeon-seung. A man who awakens to be a useful guy later. But that wasn’t what really mattered. Ryu Nam-gi was the first person in Class F to take Lee Hyun-seung’s side, and then suffered physical violence.
In other words, he acted for Lee Hyeon-seung and suffered losses. If this incident is overlooked, from now on, people will be reluctant to act for Lee Hyun-seung. Lee Hyun-seung himself was well aware of that part.
‘If I make good use of this day, I can make more reliable sides.’
have to show He had to confirm what benefits existed when he sided with Lee Hyun-seung, and what Lee Hyun-seung himself thought of his alliance. The method was simple.
sure retaliation. If I touched my allies, all I had to do was show them what would happen.
“What if you don’t like it?”
Im Tak-joo speaks arrogantly. Lee Hyun-seung pulled the gun and loaded it.
-Clap-!
“Don’t regret it, I’ll never use your feet again.”
-gulp
In an instant, a chilly silence began to flow in the hall. Lee Hyun-seung only pointed his gun at Im Tak-joo, but did not fire.
‘It’s not the timing yet.’
A clearer justification was needed. Even if a problem arises in the future, Lee Hyeon-seung himself has a cause that is so sure that he will not avoid it.
When Lee Hyeon-seung stayed still, Im Tak-joo smiled and walked forward.
“Hey, are you afraid to pull the trigger? f*ck you. I’m moderately messy because I’m class B. An idiot like you who was demoted from Class A is not someone who can do anything about it.”
To be precise, Lee Hyeonseung voluntarily moved from Class A to Class F. People knew about this, but most thought they were demoted. It has to be. There is no way there would be a madman who gave up the advantages of class A and went to class F on his own, even though there was no problem.
-Koo Woo-wook
When Lee Hyun-seung did not respond, Im Tak-joo became even more energetic and this time pressed Lee Hyun-seung on the head.
And then he pushed hard against the wall.
-Kwaaang-!
Lee Hyun-seung finally spoke with cold eyes.
“You came first and started a fight, and you were the first to strike. If anything goes wrong later, it’s your responsibility. Do you know what I hate the most? you’re touching my man You are behind now.”
“What are you talking about, you asshole!”
Im Tak-ju started running quickly. He tried to strike Lee Hyeon-seung’s belly against the wall. However, Lee Hyeon-seung avoided it by moving his body slightly to the left.
-Quaang-!
Lim Takju’s foot hit the wall. However, Im Tak-joo also kicked the wall as if it were flowing, and attacked Lee Hyeon-seung with his feet again.
A beautifully curved kick from the right oblique line to the center.
‘This bastard is a fighter.’
Lee Hyeon-seung was able to identify Im Tak-ju’s occupation with just one attack. People who use their bodies as weapons. They call them fighters. Its ability is not as outstanding as that of a magician or a swordsman, but it is one of the most respected professions as a martial artist.
-Sueug
Hyunseung Lee raised his gun and received the falling kick.
-Quaaang-!
“under?”
Im Tak-joo looked at the scene with eyes that seemed to be absurd. To block the kick he hit with all his might with a small pistol. It was a spectacle close to a stunt, but at the same time I was irritated.
“Such an asshole… Don’t keep running away like a loach!”
– Whirly Rick
Soon, Im Tak-joo turned around in the air and tried to hit Lee Hyun-seung with his back foot.
At that time, Hyunseung Lee draws out his gun and aims it at him. Bullets are fired quickly from the pointed gun.
-Taaang-!
– Push-!
The bullet grazed Im Tak-ju’s thigh.
At the moment, Jung Eun-seo, taken aback, quickly deploys a noise-blocking magic. It was because of the anxiety that Lee Hyun-seung might be punished if the sound even increased.
Lee Hyun-seung also confirmed it. The interior is now completely blocked. There were several people who could prove that it was self-defense.
The use of violence within the academy is taboo. However, if you can at least prove that you responded in order to protect yourself, there will be no problem. justification. It was something that existed in this world. Above all, the president owed a debt to Lee Hyun-seung. So even if there is a little problem, it won’t be a big problem. Thinking so, Hyunseung Lee quickly aimed his gun again.
-Jureureuk
Red blood starts pouring from Im Tak-joo’s thigh, which was hit by a bullet. Im Tak-joo thought.
‘Damn it…I didn’t even get hit properly, so why is it so painful?’
Additional damage attached to the Legendary Gunsmith trait. It wasn’t just about increasing destructive power. Damage that accumulates on the body. It also played a role in amplifying things like pain. That’s why Im Tak-joo was feeling extreme pain that a general gunsmith couldn’t feel.
-daldaldal
Im Tak-joo’s arms start to tremble. Legs do not move. The reason was simple. because it was so painful. If it was this much with just a direct hit, he didn’t even have to imagine how terrible the pain would be if he got hit right.
‘I … I really tried to smash my legs.’
The moment Lee Hyeon-seung fired the bullet, if he hadn’t twisted his body to defend it, the bullet would have hit the center of his thigh.
“Are you… are you… out of your mind? How are you going to take care of the back?”
Im Tak-joo, who became afraid, tried to talk rather than attack. It was because he already felt with excruciating pain that he had no chance of winning. However, Lee Hyeon-seung was not at ease.
“Getting behind? I’m also fighting Yoo Hee-yeon, but should I fight thinking that I’ll take care of a jerk like you? You have to think about the aftermath.”
-Sueug
Lee Hyeon-seung is a man lying on the ground with his hands. Pointing at Ryu Nam-gi, he spoke to Im Tak-joo.
“If you kneel down and beg him, I will forgive you once.”
When Lee Hyeon-seung gestured as if to lower his head, Im Tak-joo swallowed dryly.
‘Damn it… such humiliation…’
He is class B. And fighting is an Awakener who has awakened his job. To think that he had to bow his head and apologize to an F-Class jerk, was something he didn’t want to do even if he died because of his pride.
– flinch
However, whenever I looked at the gun Lee Hyunseung was holding, my body reacted. terrible pain. I felt a pain that I didn’t want to face anymore.
‘If I were to get hit directly by that…’
I really thought that one place might be crippled. Earlier, I realized desperately that Lee Hyunseung was not bluffing when he said that he would never be able to use his feet again.
-Sueug
The moment Takju Im was about to kneel.
The representative of Class B who was watching from behind. Han Seong-gil whispered softly.
“If you kneel, you will die to me. Fight straight.”
– Stop.
Han Seong-gil’s voice was not excited or mischievous, but terribly cold. There was only one case where he was like this. A situation that is terribly outrageous. Lee Hyun-seung was also afraid in front of him, but at least Lee Hyun-seung seemed like a person he could communicate with. However, Han Seong-gil was not the kind of guy to have a conversation with. Thinking so, Im Tak-joo chose the lane he could choose.
“aaagh-!”
Im Tak-joo pretended to kneel and rushed at Lee Hyeon-seung in an instant.
“You pitiful bastard. It would have been fine if I had just gotten down on my knees and begged. this is what you choose Do not resent me.”
Lee Hyeon-seung finished with those words and aimed his gun at Im Tak-joo, who was running towards him.

[C] Last Ballet – Consumes all bullets in the current magazine to fire a single powerful bullet.
Before long, a huge energy began to gather in the muzzle.
-Taaang-!
A ball of tremendous energy was fired at Im Tak-ju.
