Chapter 115
Episode 115
Korea-Japan War.
After a fierce 2-1 match, the winner of the national competition was decided.
“Sumire’s victory in the third round! The winning team is Korea! The Japanese team will be moved to the losing group and will have a revival match later…”
Before the host, Yuki, finished explaining, Sumire walked toward the new meteor near the portal.
grasp!
“Yoosung! I did my best!”
Sumire smiled and took Shin Yoo-seong into her arms. Sumire looks up at Shin Yoo-seong like a puppy looking for praise.
“Must be for Yoosung! certainly! I wanted to win! Whoops.”
A strange laugh that I can’t understand. That was definitely a smile that wasn’t like Sumire’s usual.
“Sumire. Thanks to your performance, we were able to win.”
In the end, Shin Yoo-seong smiled slightly.
Sumire tapped her own head without the Queen’s aura she had shown earlier.
This is an expression to stroke one’s hair. In addition, while looking at Sumire’s charming act, Shin Yoo-seong took off Laplace’s decoration.
‘I’m affected when I’m in this state.’
Tok.
“…ah? Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.”
Sumire, who was attached to Shin Yooseong’s arm like a leech, fell in surprise.
“Sorry! Strange behavior towards Yooseong…”
When the embarrassed Sumire urgently apologized, Shin Yooseong finally smiled at the Sumire she knew.
“no. good job. Sumire.”
Shin Yoo-seong pats Sumire’s hair while saying that. Sumire’s face was flushed and she was holding back her smirking lips.
“Ah heh heh…”
Sumire’s face was full of happiness.
The presenter, Yuki, watched the scene with a confused face.
“ruler! Then, along with the interview, we will award the prizes provided by the Hunter Association to the winning team!”
At Yuki’s guidance, two men in suits were bringing a fancy box.
The artifact contained therein is a reward for the 50th floor. thousand years old.
‘…thousand-year prison!’
Shin Yoo-seong also confirmed the winning product for the first time.
However, he already knew the identity of the thousand-year-old.
‘…It’s an artifact that Master and his colleagues obtained.’
The power contained in the millennium jade had the power to grow mana and the body. However, it was a gimmick for Kwon King and his colleagues who had already reached the pinnacle.
Hunters who had already become too strong had relatively low growth expectations.
However, if students with relatively high growth potential were absorbed, the efficiency could not be guessed.
‘To train the successor. You donated an artifact.’
And Shin Yoo-seong’s party got it. The Cheonnyeonok is an artifact that formally carries on the will left by King Kwon and his colleagues. Shin Yooseong smiled pleasantly.
‘If I can absorb all the power of the thousand-year-old…’
Shin Yoo-seong did not know how strong he would become. Sumire was even more delighted with Shin Yoo-seong’s happy expression.
“I am really, really happy to be able to help Yoosung.”
Sumire’s heartfelt words.
Sumire, who was an inferior student, was doing her part firmly by holding the hand that Shin Yoo-sung extended. All of this was the result of Shin Yuseong’s trust.
Odo dodo –
the sound of someone running.
“Sumire! Really the best! Hehehe Party leader, I knew we would win! Did you say the broadcast broke today?”
The identity of the footsteps is Amy.
As soon as the broadcast ended, it seemed that somehow he ran quickly.
“Hehehehe…”
Today’s Sumire did not hesitate to praise. He seemed really happy to be close to Shin Yoo-seong.
Siwoo Lee tried to smile.
“Thank you so much. Sumire. I almost lost because of me…”
“But… hehe, is this the result of everyone doing their best? In the first round, Mr. Yu Yoo-seong won…”
Sumire’s cheeks turned red as she looked at Shin Yoo-seong. With the victory in the national competition, the atmosphere of the party was harmonious.

Winning or losing is decided.
Now, the final stage of the competition.
– no. good job. Sumire.
– Ah heh heh….
Shin Yoo-sung and Sumire’s voice heard by Isshin. However, Isshin stood on the stage with blank eyes, motionless.
‘…Don’t be one.’
Seeing Sumire smiling with the new party members seemed happy. A smile that Isshin had never shown before.
Maybe Isshin and Sumire weren’t really party members.
The relationship between the two was not one of mutual trust.
Isshin didn’t believe in Sumire’s ability, and thought that he should be strong enough to protect him.
But now, Sumire is stronger than Isshin. I don’t know what happened in Korea, but he seemed happier than before.
Shin Yoo-seong and a Korean party member gave her the comfort and trust she had not been able to give to Sumire.
So, the only thing Isshin can leave behind is a bitter smile.
‘The reason I reached out to Hanajima…’
Maybe it wasn’t just to get a party member. My skills are low, but I keep getting worried and it’s hard to watch others get hurt.
It wasn’t just a feeling I had as a colleague.
Sirigo.
sick
feel comfortable.
Isshin finally realized what feelings he had for Sumire.
‘…of course. It’s already too late.’
Pak!
Someone’s hand wrapped around Isshin’s shoulder.
“Isshin! Cherry Blossom! Good job everyone!”
Seiji, the party leader, said with a smile. Even though he lost, Sakura smiled at Seiji who brushed it off coolly.
“Huh~ Did you recover quickly after losing so hotly?”
“no way! If I knew I was weak, I should be stronger! Don’t you have time to be depressed?”
Saying that, Seiji laughed. Seiji’s answer was as strong as Ryuko’s. Sakura looked at Isshin and said.
“You say…?”
Isshin stared blankly at Sumire without answering, then nodded belatedly.
“…okay.”
The feeling that something that shook the heart has escaped. The headache that used to make my head throb is long gone.
cat.
Rainy Day.
white violets.
Memories and words that remind me of Sumire. Isshin looked up at the sky. Light was shining down from the clear sky. A view you will never see just by looking back. Isshin threw off his bridle and smiled lightly.
“Let’s go back.”
Although timid and stupid.
With a kind and tender heart. one’s own crush. Now, Isshin acknowledged his inexperienced past and prepared to let go.

A long time ago.
In the cave where the bonfire was lit, Yu Won-hak, the king of Kwon, said to Shin Yoo-seong.
[Come to think of it… I also have one thing that I regret.]
A teacher Shin Yoo-seong knew never put the word regret in his mouth.
It was a surprise for Shin Yoo-seong.
[…Is that what Master said?]
Shin Yoo-seong asked with wide eyes.
Yoo Won-hak made a loud noise and stroked his beard.
[No surprise! It’s just that now that I think about it, it’s a pity.]
Searching.
Yu Won-hak turned over the meat on the skewer and continued.
[The former me. I never imagined that I would raise a disciple.]
Yu Won-hak looked down at himself. Shin Yooseong laughed bashfully.
[So I gave away all the unnecessary artifacts to my friend, what is it?]
They were unnecessary items for Yuwonhak, who had become the strongest. Yuwonhak has reached a point where it does not need the help of artifacts.
However, Shin Yoo-seong, his disciple, was different.
If there were artifacts left at that time, Yoo Won-hak could grow Shin Yoo-seong at a much faster rate.
[Among them… there were several artifacts, including the Black Dragon Cannon. Of course, there is one thing that is most memorable.]
And the most memorable among them is the best artifact for rapid growth.
[Master, what is that?]
Shin Yoo-seong, curious, asked with his eyes shining. Yu Won-hak said with a solemn face.
[It’s a thousand year jade!]
A jewel that absorbed mana for a thousand years in a specific leyline. With that artifact, he could raise his mana potential to a certain level.
[If you absorb the power of the millennium jade, you can drastically shorten the training time, such as meditation or mana training.]
Hemm- and let’s stroke Yu Won-hak’s beard with a look of regret. Shin Yoo-seong shouted with a clear expression.
[I will train hard enough that I don’t need those artifacts!]
At that time, Shin Yoo-seong did not know that he would be able to obtain artifacts such as the black dragon cloth and the thousand-year jade.
‘But… I have it all.’
Shin Yoo-seong got both the Black Dragon and the Millennium Jade through the association’s competition and victory in the competition.
If only this power was fully absorbed, Shin Yuseong could become much stronger than now. However, absorbing the millennial jade was risky. An artifact that needs to be handled more carefully than ever as its strong power is sealed.
‘…I need a place and time to focus.’
With a pounding heart, Shin Yoo-seong tightly gripped the thousand-year-old.
