“What… Anyway, it’s not morning, but let’s start the class.”
As always, at the words of Professor Grossman, who had a tired expression on his face, Lee Yu-na stiffened and closed her eyes.
Professor Grossman, who looked at him cutely for a moment, looked around us and said:
“Attributes, resistance, and resistance… I’ll go into more detail on the magic side, but it’s not really limited to magic. Attributes and ability to resist them are very important. I don’t even need to explain why, but I think you all know it well, so I’ll just move on.”
Professor Grossman rummaged through the pockets he was holding in his arms.
“To give one example, resistance to poison increases your chances of surviving not only in combat situations, but also when someone maliciously poisons you. Simply fire, freeze, lightning, etc… There are major ones, but even minor ones… Anyway, it’s hard to explain, but the attributes are huge, and the types of resistances that can be acquired are diverse.”
Coughing and coughing, she paused for a moment.
“Simply put, is that Lee Myung-jun? If that human had no resistance or resistance to the lightning, he would have been struck by the lightning he summoned and died. It’s crunchy like an electric chicken.”
As none of us laughed, she tilted her head for a moment.
It’s strange, it was a gag of conversion.
she muttered a little.
“Anyway, returning to the main point, it can be said that tolerance is easy to acquire and difficult to obtain. In other words, the only way to get that resistance is to be exposed and endure a lot. There’s nothing more certain than that. The problem is that aside from the pain, it takes a lot of time.”
So here… .
Professor Grossman made a sound with his mouth and pulled something out.
“Let’s go, Ma Yeon-seok.”
To be honest, I couldn’t help but be a little surprised to see what she took out.
Because I know the value of them well.
“It’s called mayeon stone… For a detailed explanation, it would be faster to read the thesis. The important thing is that this is something that helps you gain tolerance and resistance in a short time.”
She said so and gave each of us one by one.
[Lightning Stone of Thunder]
What was handed to me was a magic stone that increased resistance to lightning strikes.
As you can see, each one was given something different.
“Okay then, let’s each infuse some magic into it. By the time each of you get used to what has been given to you today and the stone breaks by itself, tolerance will settle in your body.”
“Isn’t this a lot more expensive than that? I don’t think it’s something that should be given to us.”
She answered Jin Ye-seul’s question in a relaxed tone.
“It’s okay, so don’t worry.”
At her words, Jin Ye-seul grasped the red mason stone with both hands as if she knew it.
Then, unintentionally, she turned around and rushed to Lee Yu-na.
“He must have gone crazy, hey! spit it out! That’s Gigi, Gigi!”
“Wow!”
Jin Ye-seul forced Lee Yu-na’s mouth open and put her finger in it.
As soon as she took the blue abrasive stone out of her mouth, Lee Yu-na began to vomit in vain with the sound of woo-wek.
“Do you know what kind of peppermint candy this is!? Know what this is and put it in your mouth!”
“No, yes. my words… Cole.”
Lee Yu-na held out her hand as if as an excuse to Jin Ye-seul, who was pushing a stone stone in front of her, and kept her back down and coughing in vain.
And soon after, she began to explain to Jin Ye-seul about her peculiar constitution.
I was well aware of Lee Yu-na’s peculiar constitution.
She is sensitive to changes in magical power, senses the flow, and is unmatched in change.
And, strangely, it was most effective when directly consuming magical materials such as magic stones that increase resistance or magic cores that restore mana.
… Thanks to that, in the case of other characters in the original story, the magical materials obtained were processed or smelted and used.
It was strangely addicting to watch him eat the golem’s core or the wyvern’s heart with a bright expression.
“Oh my gosh… .”
In the meantime, Lee Yu-na began to chew Ma Yeon-seok in front of Jin Ye-seul as if to prove her words, making noises.
Jin Ye-seul looked at her as if tired of it, and then shook her head as she saw a faint cold air erupting around Lee Yu-na.
“after.”
While watching it, I also used hemp stone, and then I could feel static electricity around my body.
Immediately in front of my eyes, a notification window stating that a new resistance to lightning had appeared.
Jin Ye-seul, who was looking at Lee Yu-na with a complicated gaze, also grabbed Ma Yeon-seok with both hands as if she had just remembered it.
And after a while, heat began to flow around her as well.
“… Aren’t you too much?”
And Professor Grossman, who looked at us calmly, muttered as if it was ridiculous.
“It should take at least three hours, and no matter how fast it takes an hour… .”
She muttered with a small sigh.
“Um, first… Actually, I thought today’s class was to raise your tolerance and make you familiar with it, but at least a three-hour class was over in 10 minutes.”
She said looking at us with strangely empty eyes.
“You finished it so quickly, so why did you send it out early? First of all, let me help you with the individual tutoring for an hour in the order you finished it. Others can do whatever training they want to do freely in their spare time… Personally, I do not recommend that you carefully look back on the introspection you have just acquired.”
Having said that, she went to the next room with Yuna.
And unintentionally, when Jin Ye-seul and I were left alone, I secretly approached her because I wanted it to be this time.
“it.”
Before I opened my mouth, Jin Ye-seul pointed a finger at Yado’s dagger hanging from my waist.
“Are you broken?”
“Uh, what… .”
I smiled and lifted it up.
“I’m sorry, I just gave you a present.”
“Ugh, that’s what weapons are supposed to be.”
Jin Ye-seul shook her head as if she didn’t really care.
Then he looked at it and asked.
“Can I buy you another one?”
“uh? No, it’s okay. now.”
“ah… .”
For some reason, Jin Ye-seul had a slightly hurt expression on her face.
She nodded as if she understood before I could react.
“but… Now I can write things that are so good that they can’t even be compared. I’m sorry, I just went out of my way… .”
“Wait a minute.”
Feeling something strange in her words, I immediately approached her.
There was no need to build up misunderstandings.
“It’s not what you think. I made up my mind to use a different weapon instead of just a dagger, and above all, I’m sorry for burdening you with it.”
“But I never thought it was a burden at all.”
Watching her shake her head, I quietly opened my mouth.
“I’m sorry, yes, I. And I think I know what you’re misunderstanding, but because of that, I had something to say to you.”
“misunderstanding?”
“Hey. Loud talk about me these days.”
“ah.”
Jin Ye-seul nodded her head as if she understood.
And he looked at me with strange eyes and asked.
“… But is there any misunderstanding?”
“It’s not a misunderstanding, it’s the back story and general stories related to it. Because I thought I had to explain it to you.”
She looked at me without a word.
I hesitated for a moment and then nodded.
“And, I have a story to tell.”
“A story that must be told?”
“okay.”
“… Is it important?”
I nodded.
For some reason, she blushed slightly and mumbled in a hazy voice.
“… I like Hawaii for my honeymoon. But anyway, it’s the best, so Jihyuk will follow your opinion unconditionally as to where to go.”
“What? no. Not that kind of story… .”
“know. I was joking.”
Jin Ye-seul grew tall.
Then she looked at me with her eyes twinkling like amethyst.
“Are you relaxed a bit?”
Having said that, she continued speaking in a quiet voice.
“I think this is the first time Jihyuk has seen you so nervous. Are you sure it’s that important?”
Jin Ye-seul slowly reached out to my chest.
Like a doctor palpating a patient, she touched the part of my heart with careful gestures.
“I can hear? bang bang bang bang… It’s the first time I’ve run so wild.”
“… … .”
I didn’t say anything.
After a while, Jin Ye-seul slowly withdrew her hand.
“I will be waiting. So, when your heartbeat calms down a little, then tell me.”
“okay.”
I nodded.
“Thank you for your consideration.”
Jin Ye-seul didn’t answer.
It was just a smile that was deep enough to be ecstatic like a painting.
* * *
“Okay, is your training going well these days?”
Professor Grossman, who muttered in his characteristic slack tone, took a deep breath and looked at me.
Looking at her like that, I spit out the words I had been thinking about beforehand.
“Professor, actually… .”
After listening to my story for a while, she looked at me with a puzzled expression.
“There it is. I understand your nervousness, but that’s definitely backfired. At your level now, one thing is certain… .”
“I would like to take a look. then?”
Saying so, I picked up the false sword from the cradle next to it.
Professor Grossman frowned slightly, but picked up the false sword as if he knew for a moment.
“Suck!”
He ran straight to her and swung his sword.
After several flowing sword attacks, she immediately straightened her posture and gripped her sword.
With her eyes wide open as if surprised, she let out my sword strike a few times and then quickly backed away.
Then he picked up two spears from the stand next to them and threw one at me.
“Try it through the window. Throw away the black.”
As she said, he threw away his sword and held the spear in his characteristic posture.
After throwing away the sword, she also held the spear and looked at this side.
After a while, Professor Grossman, who had gathered his weapon, said that he had enough, muttered, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
“… The demons are singing.”
She murmured as if she really couldn’t believe it.
“How the hell is this possible… ? Obviously, I was a beginner at that time… .”
After thinking about it for a while, she looked at me.
The eyes were filled with something deeper than usual.
“Looks like something big happened. It’s something so big it’s hard to explain.”
“Yes.”
“okay… .”
She nodded as if that was enough.
I paused for a moment in her simple attitude, and she looked at me as if she knew why she was doing it.
“why. Is it strange that I don’t ask in detail?”
“Yes. To be honest, I thought you would ask.”
So I had some excuses in mind.
But she smiled a little, as if for a reason.
“I was happy when I was happy with the growth of my disciple, because I don’t want to ask about things that I don’t want to talk about.”
She returned the spear and sword to the cradle with a shuffling sound, took a small chair and sat down on it.
After confirming that I was also sitting on the chair, she nodded and stared at me.
“So, the concern was obviously which weapon to use as the main weapon?”
“Yes. I guess this is because they teach you to have one main weapon unconditionally. There’s also the positional problem… .”
In order to change the main weapon, the approval of the advisor was absolutely necessary.
To be honest, it was okay to change it arbitrarily without getting approval, but there was no need to make a book.
Because there was a hard part in the unexpected part.
“Do you really need to be tied to that? Just write what you like.”
But she shrugged her shoulders as if she was thinking about something like that and leaned back.
“Jihyeok was definitely in your position as a vanguard. But that’s it. In the end, the position is just a half-forced setting for you to understand and keep in mind your role in the academy more deeply. You don’t have to get hung up on it. In the first place, when you go into a real battle and the variables explode, there are many cases where the Vanguard holds a shield and acts as a guard, and the supporter fires support.”
She scratched her forearm.
“The weapons Jihyuk can use are swords, spears, bows, and daggers. Are these four?”
“Yes.”
“Honestly, you can use all of them equally, but if you have to choose one and focus on it… As far as I know, the avant-garde line of your team used a halberd and a sword and shield.”
She knew details about the composition of my team that I had not told her.
With a serious expression on her face, she pursed her lips.
“Considering the balance and other factors, the sword seems to be good, but honestly, I think I will have to watch you fight a little more to find out. But right now, I’m not feeling well… .”
As she said that, she secretly pulled up her collar as if trying to hide the darkened tattoo on the nape of her neck.
If so, are you going to have a battle with either Yu Na or Jin Ye Seul?
While I was thinking it was probably weaning with a high probability, I suddenly heard Professor Grossman kick and burst into a small laugh.
“Come to think of it, yes… Let’s hear it, the last time I heard there was a girl who easily defeated you in a match, am I right?”
Did I mention that his name is Ahn Do-hoon? .
Professor Grossman, who had muttered like that, glanced at me.
“How about you, don’t you want to hang out with him? In the sense of a prelude.”
“Is it a dinner party?”
“okay.”
She nodded.
“And above all else, you want to check your skills. That will help when I teach you later.”
“… … .”
After thinking for a while, I gave her an answer.
Hearing my answer, Professor Grossman smiled bitterly and satisfied.
