I Became a Student at the Transcension Academy

Chapter 87 - Interaction (4)

It was a short sentence, but Seo-joon could understand why Su-yeon was so nervous.

Of course, Suyeon had never seen Lee Ha-yoon in person.

Even the name Lee Ha-yoon must have been unfamiliar to Su-yeon, who had only recently become a student.

But just because you've never seen it doesn't mean you don't know it because you're unfamiliar with it.

In the first place, if you look around the community a little, there is a name called Lee Ha-yoon.

For instance, the fact that Lee Ha-yoon was being compared to Seo-joon was a huge pressure on Su-yeon.

It was because the Seo-joon that Soo-yeon had seen was at an absurd level.

Even if only Suyeon herself, she couldn't even dream of comparing herself to Seojun.

Lee Ha-yoon was definitely a tough opponent for Soo-yeon to handle.

It was all the more so when it had not been long since he had received the demonic teaching.

“I, I… can I do well?”

Susan's voice was still trembling.

“I’m not even going to a dungeon raid, so what? As soon as you lose, as soon as you win, as soon as you win. take it easy It’s good to have a competitive spirit, but it’s not good to be too obsessive.”

“But...”

Despite Seo-joon's advice, Soo-yeon couldn't shake off the tension easily.

Is it because of Suyeon's appearance?

Seo-joon could see the nervousness in Soo-yeon.

and true.

‘I also... have to show that I can do something.'

As Seo-jun predicted, Su-yeon was obsessed with an obsession close to an obsession.

It was because of what happened in the last raid battle.

To be precise, it started from feeling that Soo-yeon enjoyed the raid battle.

It was good to be a dream team, and it was good to do something together.

to be recognized by people Unleash your honed skills.

In the end, she was in danger of dying, but Suyeon enjoyed the entire process.

That's why the fact that it wasn't much help came as a big pain to Suyeon.

It may be greedy, but Soo-yeon had a desire to continue to be with them.

It's not long before the pro hunter exam.

Seojun and Minyul should have been able to pass the professional hunter test without difficulty.

Because those two were talented enough to do so.

But what about himself?

Soo-yeon couldn't answer the question she asked herself.

If I'm the only one who fails the pro hunter test... what will happen to me?

Even if they do, am I qualified to stand by them right now?

Of course, if it was Seo-joon, he wouldn't be kicked out.

But is it really right to want such sympathy and affection?

Soo-yeon has already received so much from Seo-joon.

Now, Soo-yeon wanted to help Seo-joon instead of receiving it.

In order to do that, at least he had to be qualified to stand by Seo-jun's side.

No, they couldn't stand shoulder to shoulder, but they shouldn't have grabbed each other's ankles.

So Su-yeon reduced her sleep and practiced again and again like an obsession.

And now.

“Suk Soo-yeon, a student at Dream Academy. Please come to your seat when you are ready.”

I wanted to confirm that qualification.

“Do well.”

“Whoa...!”

With Seo-jun's encouragement, Soo-yeon took a deep breath and moved slowly.

Seo-joon changed his mind about going to the waiting room and watched Soo-yeon play.

“Lee Ha-yoon Lee of Hunter Mill. Please come to your seat when you are ready.”

As Suyeon stood in her seat, the referee spoke again.

buzz buzz.

At the same time, a small commotion began to rise inside the arena.

Lee Ha-yoon of Hunter Mill.

The atmosphere in the hall heated up with just the name Seokja.

After a while, Lee Ha-yoon appeared on the pitch.

At the same time, the commotion was even more intense, but Lee Ha-yoon did not express anything and moved on.

A grimly cold face.

Of course, it was not much different from what I saw at the entrance.

However, Seo-jun felt that Lee Ha-yoon's expression seemed to have a strange annoyance.

And was it conscious of Seo-jun's gaze?

For an instant, Lee Ha-yoon's gaze turned to Seo-joon.

two people facing each other.

A strange silence passed between the two.

However, Lee Ha-yoon soon looked away as if he was not interested.

“Are you both ready?”

As Lee Ha-yoon stood across from Su-yeon, the referee immediately asked the two of them.

The referee confirmed the appearance of the two nodding slightly, and then shouted.

“Then… let the game begin!”

At the same time as the referee shouted, Suyeon quickly spread the distance.

Then, drawing out the mana, he prepared the magic.

however.

“......”

For some reason, Lee Ha-yoon did not show any movement.

He just watched Soo-yeon's actions with cold eyes.

Then Lee Ha-yoon spat out the words.

“try.”

“......yes?”

Lee Ha-yoon slowly took out her weapon, the sword.

“Do everything you can.”

“What is that…?”

Lee Ha-yoon opened his mouth again with a long sword.

“This is how you realize your own insignificance. So try to do as much as you can.”

Then Lee Ha-yoon stood still, as if he really had no intention of attacking first.

It was a remark and action that went beyond confidence and bordered on arrogance.

“......That word. You will soon regret it.”

“How can everyone say the same thing?”

Soo-yeon bit her teeth and focused her mind.

Woo woo woo!

Then, a wave of tremendous magical power began to rage from Suyeon.

Soo-yeon's mouth opened several times, followed by a tremendous murder, and Su-yeon's signs began to blur.

A magical fear that puts pressure on the opponent with thick flesh.

And it was the blocking of magic that erased one's presence.

Of course, it didn't even mean anything to Seo-joon, who had a sense of immobility and Chiron.

But for others, it could mean enough.

“This pressure… What is it?”

“Besides, does something feel strange?”

Soo-yeon's magic started to stir the hall.

Pajijijik!

Then, Soo-yeon threw a thunderbolt in her hand and rushed at Lee Ha-yoon.

Seo-joon wonders why the students at the ale academy who dealt with Su-yeon were so surprised by Su-yeon's appearance.

At the same time, I could understand why Maseong praised Suyeon so highly.

Wizards were precious talents who usually fell into the rear and ejected powerful magic.

Not only that, but the various conveniences and uses of magic were one of the reasons why he was considered an essential talent in the raid team.

So, when it comes to magicians, when it comes to talent, they pick intelligence.

A mental function that organizes and unifies what is perceived to give rise to new perceptions.

Intelligence was an invaluable talent for a mage who could understand and comprehend phenomena.

Since magic itself was like that in the first place, wizards had no choice but to focus on research and exploration.

Naturally, the majority of magicians' physical abilities were relatively modest or weak.

That's why it was a common feature of wizards to fall behind and be protected.

however.

“Now... are you going to engage Lee Ha-yoon in close combat?”

The appearance of Soo-yeon that she sees now is one step away from the prejudice of those wizards.

Unlike other wizards, Soo-yeon boldly ran into Lee Ha-yoon.

It was for that reason that Soo-yeon blocked her peers and presence just before.

In fact, unlike the stealth technique, Presence Blocking was a magic that literally only erased the presence.

Therefore, if you miss only the field of view, there is no problem, but on the contrary, if you miss the field of view, it will be a big problem.

Soo-yeon intended to hit directly with the thunderbolt she caused by using her peers and presence blocking.

Pajijijik!

Soo-yeon inserted a thunderbolt into Lee Ha-yoon.

Lee Ha-yoon dodged it lightly, but didn't expect it to stick close.

A look of bewilderment appeared in Lee Ha-yoon's eyes for a moment and then disappeared.

Hwareuk!

Pajijijik!

And Soo-yeon, not wanting to miss the opportunity, cast magic one after another.

“Why does a wizard bother melee?”

“Is that necessary?”

Seeing Suyeon like that, people began to express their doubts.

Then, as if answering the question, someone's voice followed.

“It hurts my pride... but I can see why our students struggled so much.”

It was none other than Cha Hye-in, the representative of Ale Academy.

Did he come to see Lee Ha-yoon or Soo-yeon?

Cha Hye-in was standing on one side of the arena, watching the two of them.

“To think he was a wizard focused on thorough combat...”

In fact, strictly speaking, a wizard didn’t have to be like that.

If you fall behind and use only powerful magic, you have done your job as a wizard.

But is it really like that in practice?

No one knew what would happen in real life.

What if mana is twisted? What if the chant or mana is restricted?

What if right after a gigantic magical explosion that shakes even the laws?

What if there are no other hunters to protect you?

It is real life that can be twisted and wrong at any time.

Circumstances also change according to the ever-changing environment.

That's why Chiron also emphasized the importance of intuition and physical training to beginners in the magic profession.

“Still, how could the students go so far…”

But that wasn’t something anyone could do.

In the first place, being able to perform turbulent movements and magic calculations at the same time boasted a considerable level of difficulty.

In addition, a combative sense is also required, so along with magic research, physical training is required.

It required several times the effort compared to others.

Soo-yeon had been repeating the effort, reducing her sleep at night.

Above all, in that way, it was bound to be affected by his own magic.

Therefore, it spreads a partial barrier and absorbs the damage coming to it.

Sometimes, even taking such damage required judgment to carry out an attack.

It was not a preferred method because there were many things to consider and it was an inefficient method.

The current mage style of falling into the rear for nothing had not been settled.

but only one.

“It's a method that has been almost dead since Demon Star...”

Demon Star, the hero of the cataclysm and the pinnacle of wizards, used that type of combat method.

During the heyday of the cataclysm, it was known that such a demonic nature was like a disaster.

In that sense, in foreign countries, demons were called ‘War Mage'.

And now.

Pajijijijik!

Soo-yeon was showing a sample of such a war mage.

If it were other students, it was Suyeon's attack that would have been quite difficult.

but.

“Keugh...!”

Even if the opponent wasn't good, it wasn't too good.

Whoop!

Lee Ha-yoon, as if predicting Soo-yeon's movements, lightly attacked.

And the move was so effective that it gave goosebumps.

Lee Ha-yoon did not allow even the slightest gap.

A movement that seems to have reached a certain level.

“Is this all you have?”

The difference in level was obvious to anyone.

Su-yeon admired even the demonic nature, but Lee Ha-yoon overpowered even such talent of Su-yeon.

Lee Ha-yoon, who is said to be the greatest talent in the history of pro hunters.

“Keuk...!”

Like the others, Soo-yeon couldn't overcome Lee Ha-yoon's wall.

At this rate, Suyeon's defeat seemed certain.

It seemed clear that the match would be decided by the point where Soo-yeon's physical strength and magical power were depleted.

perhaps.

Fuck!

I didn't know that I wouldn't even need time to drain my mana.

“Turn it off!”

Lee Ha-yoon evaded Soo-yeon's attack with an amazing movement and hit her in the abdomen.

In the process, he did not even use his weapon, the sword.

Literally an overwhelming gap.

Lee Ha-yoon grabbed Soo-yeon, who was suffering from terrible pain, by the collar.

“Do you understand now? How are you...”

But.

“Caught...all...”

“What?”

Pajijijijijik!!!

Suddenly, a thunderbolt was ejected from Soo-yeon's hand and covered Lee Ha-yoon.

A raging storm of magical powers and thunderbolts.

but.

“......”

Lee Ha-yoon was slightly scorched, but suffered no damage.

Despite being hit directly by Soo-yeon's magic, Lee Ha-yoon just stood still, holding on to Su-yeon's collar.

“Three Gods…”

“This is an absurd gap…”

It was a fight that couldn’t be won in the first place.

At that moment, Lee Ha-yoon's eyes began to change fiercely.

His expression, which had only been kept cold, distorted, and he raised his opposite hand, which had been gripping his collar.

and.

Tada——Evil!

with a shout.

Courage!

Suyeon's body flew through the air.

“…”

“…”

“…”

A chilly silence fell.

Lee Ha-yoon crossed the silence and approached the fallen Su-yeon.

And then he twisted his collar again and pulled it up.

Tada——Evil!

Tada——Evil!

They started slapping each other in succession.

Tada——Evil!

Suyeon's face started to swell up every time she heard a single sound.

Su-yeon's body was limp, either because she had no strength to resist or because she passed out.

Kwap!

Seo-joon grabbed the spear and ran out.

But then.

“Ha... don't... oppa...”

Soo-yeon's thread-like voice pierced Seo-jun's ears.

Seo-joon had no choice but to stop running away without realizing it.

The referee hadn't declared victory yet.

If Seo-joon entered the match like this now, Seo-joon could be disqualified.

Then, the prize money that Seo-jun wanted so much is gone.

“It's okay... It's okay...”

T—Damn it!

Could Su-yeon be holding Seo-jun's ankle?

was worried about that.

That's why Seo-joon couldn't bear to break in.

“Lee Ha-yoon, student! What are you doing! Stop right now!”

In the end, Seo-joon could not take any action until he heard the referee's declaration of victory.

And Lee Ha-yoon finally let go of Su-yeon.

To be exact, he threw Suyeon to the floor.

Kwa Dang Tang!

Seo-joon hurriedly ran at the sight of Su-yeon falling through the air again.

Soo-yeon's face was swollen beyond recognition.

“……Annoying.”

Lee Ha-yoon's voice followed.

Seo-joon felt as if something was cut off in his head.

however.

Suyeon grabbed the hem of Seojun's clothes.

Then, with a swollen face, he muttered:

“It's because I... I'm not good enough...”

Soo-yeon passed out without a word.

#

The medical staff hurriedly rushed to her, and fortunately, Suyeon had no major problems.

Hearing from the medical staff that he would be fine as long as he was treated well, Seo-joon was finally able to feel relieved.

In addition, Lee Ha-yoon, who did such a thing, was also held accountable.

Anyone can see that Lee Ha-yoon's action was an act that crossed the line.

Of course, there had to be punishment for it.

However, the punishment given to Lee Ha-yoon is a warning. That was all.

The justification was ‘It was a duel between the students, and it was the result of the injury.' It was called.

furthermore.

“Sorry… Captain. Soo-yeon tried to get revenge... but I was also beaten.”

Min-yul also suffered a major injury against Lee Ha-yoon.

At least it was Minyul, so he wasn't beaten like Suyeon was, but his left arm and several ribs seemed to be broken.

When I listened to the words of the students who watched, there were words that Lee Ha-yoon seemed to do it on purpose.

“Boss… be careful. There's a reason people say it's the best ever.”

Even so, Minyul did not express anything.

When the situation reached this point, Seoyoon tried to protest strongly.

However, Seo-jun stopped such Seo-yoon.

“yes? uh why...?”

“Leave it.”

Seojun didn't say anything different.

“Leave it.”

He just repeated these words and stopped Seoyoon.

After that, Seo-joon continued to host exchange tournaments, but he couldn't remember.

With vague memories.

“Seojun-ssi...”

Seoyoon's worried expression and changed the spear several times.

This was the only thing that came to mind.

When Seo-joon regained his senses, he was in a situation where he was already in the finals of the exchange match.

And that opponent is none other than Lee Ha-yoon.

People started going crazy.

In the hall, not only reporters, but also all the students who participated in the exhibition gathered.

Even the relevant officials were all gathered, so the hall was literally on the verge of bursting.

Unapproachable irregular Kim Seo-joon.

Lee Ha-yoon, the greatest talent in pro hunter history.

The match everyone had been waiting for and was curious about was about to begin.

“Seojun Kim, a student at De Dream Academy. Please come to your seat when you are ready.”

The referee in charge of the game also stuttered as if he was nervous.

Seo-joon went up to his seat without a word, and the referee continued.

“Lee Ha-yoon Lee of Her Hunter Mill. Please come to your seat when you are ready.”

Lee Ha-yoon also came up to her seat without a word.

Seojun and Lee Ha-yoon faced each other like that.

“Are you both ready?”

Lee Ha-yoon nodded slightly at the referee's words.

However, Seo-joon raised his hand and stopped the game for a while.

“What is your problem?”

For a while, everyone in the hall was puzzled by Seo-jun's sudden action.

“Let’s ask one thing.”

Seojun looked at Lee Ha-yoon and spat out the words.

“Did you have to do that?”

“......”

Lee Ha-yoon said nothing.

He just looked at Seo-joon with a consistent cold expression.

“Do you think you can ignore people like that just because you’re great?”

However, Seo-joon continued talking as if he hadn't even expected Lee Ha-yoon's answer.

“The greatest talent ever in the history of pro hunters. You've never experienced anything like frustration. That's why it's quite dog-like. You probably don't know.”

Seo-joon speaks again.

“That really looks like a dog.”

Seojun's past 10 years.

It was a year when I struggled to become a professional hunter.

No matter how much I struggle, I endure the reality that I can't do.

Looking at an uncertain future.

A time when I was in despair countless times in the reality where others were far ahead but I was always in my place.

Seo-joon struggled for 10 years like that.

People say.

Do your best in any matter.

Then even if that doesn't happen, there will be no regrets left.

Because you can choose another path without regret.

So Seo-joon did everything he could for 10 years.

So that there will be no regrets later, so that there will be no regrets.

Even so, Seo-joon was able to realize the reality that couldn't be done at that time.

Even if you did your best in life, if it still doesn't work.

“At that time, I only thought that I was really ugly. that's really scary I am really afraid.”

That you do despair, not regret.

Rather, only deeper lingering feelings and despair settle in a corner of my heart and constantly torment me.

People say it's frustrating.

But those who have really experienced it know.

It's not really frustrating.

“That is the real substance of the name effort.”

That is the true meaning of hard work.

Effort is not passion. so it's not hot

cold and still

The darkness is so filthy dark that I can't even see its end.

Taking a step in the depths of loneliness is more frightening than anything else.

Seo-joon could feel it in Soo-yeon's last words.

“You trampled on those efforts.”

That's why Seo-joon was angry with Lee Ha-yoon.

It is only natural that those with outstanding talents are ahead of others.

It's not that they don't make that cold, static effort.

but.

There is no right to disparage the efforts of others anywhere.

“I don’t dare to ignore your petty talents.”

Lee Ha-yoon was still speechless.

“Yeah, you don’t know just by hearing about it, do you?”

Seo-joon stretched out his spear.

“try.”

And spit it out.

“......what?”

Only then did Lee Ha-yoon begin to show meaningful reactions.

Seo-joon told Lee Ha-yoon clearly.

“Do everything you can.”

Lee Ha-yoon's distorted expression.

“You should try something out of the blue, too.”

Seo-joon said in a voice that was colder than the cold.

“Feel how dog-like it is.”
