MEMORIZE Chapter 524

00524 Do you know that it is a crossroads? ————————————————– ———————-=

Isn’t it really amazing? I can’t believe I felt so mentally and physically stable just by watching the crystal ball video.

… Is there really some force at work that I don’t know about?

Suddenly, something I heard in the instructor’s office a little while ago comes to mind.

‘Because we always have faith in the Clan Lord.’

It felt like those words were finally making sense to me just a little bit.

After a while.

I raised both hands and slapped both cheeks hard.

match!

Following the sound of flesh clashing, my cheeks start to heat up. It was hit so hard that I felt a tingling sensation.

Still, the effect was clear. As if a cloudy fog was slowly clearing, I felt my complicated mind gradually calming down.

With a clearer head, I began to calmly organize my thoughts.

It is true that I was greatly shocked by my unexpected first meeting with Jegal Haesol. The shock was doubled when I checked the user information there.

That’s not all. The magical power competition in the vacant lot was on par with the development of transportation magic, which was his trademark during the first round. Wouldn’t it be possible to tell just by looking at those things?

okay. Jegal Hae-sol, unlike his user Gong Chan-ho, proved his specialness.

Maybe that’s why it was like that.

What was Jegal Haesol like in the past? And how special this time is. And how terrifyingly it will grow in the future.

I was afraid that Zhuge Hae-sol would grow into a fearsome person after running away out of my reach. Caught up in the ghost of the first episode, I unconsciously assumed and imagined the worst. In one word, I could say I didn’t have the confidence to handle it.

But now that I think about it, it was unfounded. no. At least for now, it was just a false hope.

Because this is not the first round.

A lot of things have changed as we start the second round. As I saw in the recording crystal ball, I am no longer alone. There are users called Mercenary Clan members who trust me and follow me. That’s over fifty people.

On the other hand, hasn’t Zhuge Haesol just entered the Hole Plain?

Of course, we acknowledge that user information is unusual. It has been proven that he has great talent, and his potential is likely to be enormous.

However, it is still at a manageable level, at least for now.

In other words, in the end, can you embrace it or not?

Or, it is a question of whether to live or not.

As always.

Why on earth did I make something so complicated when it could be summarized so simply?

Now that this has happened, the story is noticeably different.

First of all, I regret trying to kill Jegal Hae-sol without thinking at first. I thought about it before, but killing them unconditionally is not the solution. Moreover, Yoo Hyeon-ah, to whom Jegal Hae-sol was loyal in the first episode, is now dead and gone.

To that extent, this could actually be said to be an opportunity. There is no better opportunity.

Now, it is unknown to whom Jegal Haesol will go. The number of cases is endless.

What if I could have even one thing there?

If that were possible, wouldn’t it be the best move? It’s a pain to talk about user information, and isn’t it worth commending that he didn’t give up even though he received hundreds of recruitment offers before he died?

Of course, when we think of a user named Jegal Haesol, we cannot just imagine a rosy future. The opposite case should also be considered.

That is, if I cannot recruit Jegal Haesol.

In fact, I had to feel a very strange feeling during my first meeting with Jegal Hae-sol. For a trainee, he has an extremely bold attitude and a bright smile that makes it seem like he knows something. Feeling like you can’t be caught, but like you might disappear at any moment?

Just looking at what they say is the same.

‘It’s late at night. And you wouldn’t know if you were a life instructor. If an instructor brings trainees late at night, wouldn’t everyone think it’s strange?’

The more you look at it and the more you think about it, the more subtle it becomes. It almost felt like he was choosing the clan in which he would work.

But whatever their intention, it’s probably good. It may be a bit unfortunate, but I think the choice lies with me, not Jegal Haesol.

Anyway, the most important thing is to keep in mind the possibility that Jegal Haesol may not come to me.

In fact, in such cases, the situation becomes a little ambiguous, but I am still confident. Killing a chick that had just entered the hall plane without leaving a trace was a piece of cake. … Well, if the opponent is Jegal Hae-sol, it might be enough to eat lukewarm porridge.

Anyway, I was able to organize my thoughts that way, so I stretched out as hard as I could and looked up at the sky. The sky was still clear and blue.

As I look at the passing sky, a bright smile suddenly escapes me.

Probably because I felt like an idiot for thinking about it all weekend.

*

As I heard from Shin Jae-ryong, mental education was scheduled for this afternoon. This training was not just for some, but for all magic talent trainees.

What that meant was that Jegal Haesol would also be joining my training today.

“after.”

“Brother. Please go in. “Please show me your example today too!”

As I was slowly catching my breath, Ansol followed me and opened the classroom door. Her eyes were wide open, and I thought she was quite angry when she heard that the trainees had stabbed me.

I smiled lightly at Ansol and then calmly walked inside.

The classroom was very quiet. I feel an unexpected, quiet tension. When I look around, I see about 200 trainees watching me with their mouths tightly shut. And among them, Jegal Haesol was sitting right at the window on the left.

While everyone is nervous, he is the only one with a calm face. Then he suddenly made eye contact with me and said, ‘Hello.’ He formed a mouth shape and gently lowered his head. And as I just watched, he quietly smiled with his eyes and even waved one hand.

I looked at Jegal Haesol and smiled.

Actually, I still don’t know what he was thinking. But that doesn’t mean I don’t want to try my hand at the sword like last time. It looks like you have a very strong observational tendency, but one mistake is enough.

Either way, if I can’t read the other person, I just need to make the other person unable to read me.

Immediately, I walked to the central platform, leaving behind Jegal Hae-sol, who caught my eye.

“nice to meet you. This is Kim Soo-hyun, who joined us today as a mental education instructor. … Well, some people might not be happy.”

As I say that and look to one side, I see twenty trainees avoiding my gaze. These were the trainees who had received encouragement from me last time. Swallowing their saliva and closing their eyes tightly, these are the faces that, in vulgar language, say “X is done.”

Actually, if it were like before, I would have been enthusiastic from the start, but I didn’t plan on doing that this time. First of all, it is because the attitudes shown now are quite good. Of course, it was embarrassing to stab him, but I could just think of it as a small act of rebellion.

And more than anything else, I had no intention of playing into the intentions of other instructors who were trying to get me out of this recruitment war.

So I quietly opened my mouth.

“But first, I would like to express my deepest regret for the last fighting incident.”

Then the trainees opened their eyes. A strange light appears on their faces.

“Actually, the reason I came in as an instructor today was because I received a request from other instructors. These trainees. In particular, there has been a lot of talk recently about the attitude of magical talent trainees. However, it was not easy for them to control it, so they asked me to give them a hard scolding.”

If we say this, we can blame the other instructors to some extent.

“But I personally believe that you will be treated as much as you do and as much as you look. And your attitude today is great. Actually, I don’t even want it to this level. We just hope that you respect us as much as our instructors respect you. “It’s not difficult, right?”

First of all, I can see several trainees nodding their heads as if the statement is not wrong.

In the meantime, a young man suddenly caught my eye. He is a trainee with a secret class called Soul Commander. I don’t know where the mischievous look from last time went, but today he was stuck in a corner, showing a very timid look.

From the looks of it, I was far away from the trainees I was taking class with last time… . Are you being ostracized because of that incident?

Clicking my tongue inwardly, I continued speaking quietly. Now it was time to put aside the appeasing and really get into education.

“Then let’s start training right away. You’ve probably heard it a lot by now. “Our instructors are not the ones sending you home.”

The trainees look at me with slightly dazed faces. It may be a cliché, but it was just as important.

“Hole Plain is not a game. It is a reality where you only have one life and it ends when you die. And after the trainees complete the user academy, they will begin working in this world called Hol Plain. “Maybe I should live here for the rest of my life.”

When the word “life” was mentioned, a gloomy look appeared on some people’s faces. Now it’s getting a little more serious.

“In this whole-plane world, the death rate of users is very high. It can’t even be compared to a rite of passage. The moment you leave this user academy and go outside any city. No one can guarantee their life. In other words, the period of time your lives will be protected is now about four weeks.”

“… … .”

“Does this sound like a lie?”

“… … .”

“It’s unfortunate, but it’s true. “Even at this very moment, when I’m standing in front of you, someone could be dying somewhere.”

“… … .”

The trainees said nothing. They just stare at me or look at each other in turns. No matter how adaptable you are, there are bound to be differences in how you feel as you have not yet experienced this world.

I decided to change the topic a bit.

“The number of people who came this time was about 400 or 500?”

Then, you hear weak answers like “Yes.”

“What does this mean? This means that from the time the last User Academy ended until the new User Academy was activated, that’s exactly how many people were declared dead or out of power. And you guys came in as replacements.”

“… That instructor? What do you mean by that? “You mean it’s a judgment other than full strength?”

At that time, someone quietly raised their hand and asked. The voice was a bit husky, but judging from the tone of voice, it seemed like it was a female trainee.

I looked up in the direction where the question came from.

“It’s literally true. Actually, it is a hypothesis that has not been confirmed yet… . “When it comes to judgment other than power, you can think of it as having lost your function as a user, even though you haven’t died.”

“function… . “Loss?”

“yes. You can find out if you go exploring. There are many different groups that will try to attack you the moment you leave the city. Monsters that rush to kill you, and monsters with high intelligence. Or even the same user… . ah. In this case, they are also called vagabonds.”

“yes yes. “I heard that.”

“okay. Anyway, this means that the enemies mentioned above may have a purpose other than taking your lives.”

“different… . Purpose? Sorry, sorry. “I must understand you wrong.”

When he said he didn’t understand, I crossed my arms and licked my lips. Actually, I tried to say it as euphemistically as possible. For a moment, I was wondering whether I should say this or not, but I thought it would be better to do it anyway. Because mental education refers to these very aspects.

“hmm. This may be a bit cruel, but let’s look at a stark example. In fact, the purpose itself is simple. In the case of men, they often become prey on the spot. Because it doesn’t have much use. But the case of women is completely different. To put it bluntly, there are cases where monsters that are intelligent enough to have the ability to conceive are not killed right away.”

“If it’s conception… . Are you pregnant? Oh, no way. Are you saying that there are cases where a monster’s child is conceived?”

“yes. That’s correct. To put it bluntly, it means that it is reduced to a mother or livestock. So, until we die, we have to live as a breeding ground for the monster race. … That’s what a judgment other than power means. “In some ways, you could say it was my bad luck to be born a woman.”

“No way… !”

The conversation suddenly stopped. After that, no exact words were heard, but small screams came out one after another here and there. I guess I haven’t heard any details about this yet. Or even if I heard it, I thought it was impossible.

Soon the noise got worse, so I pounded the desk to calm the commotion. The trainees immediately closed their mouths and fixed their eyes on me.

Eventually, I looked back at the trainees and opened my mouth softly.

“For your information, what I just said is the instructor’s experience.”

The noise was no longer heard.

*

After the extremely dark mental education was over.

“Brother. Thanks for your efforts.”

As soon as I left the classroom, Ansol followed me and offered me a towel and a drink. I just looked at the two and picked up a drink. Did I just get out of the ring?

“Hmm. This concludes our schedule for this afternoon. Now the next schedule is… . Let’s see.”

As he was tilting his head, Ansol cutely cleared his throat and straightened his back. She then started looking at her records, waving her hands as if she were wearing glasses. … It seems like he’s into the secretarial game these days.

I took a sip of my drink and opened my mouth.

“Why are you looking at records that contain nothing? And there is no next schedule.”

“no. there is.”

“?”

“Go to a user named Ansol and play with him… . Ugh. “Don’t hit me.”

Ansol screamed and ran away. I went up to hit him on the head, but he noticed and ran away. Is it because she is so right that she notices it?

Ansol, who had been running away so often, suddenly stopped walking and stuck his head out. And the question mark floating on the top of my head seems to be telling me why I’m not following along. After throwing a few pointed gestures at Ansol, he was just about to turn away.

“Hey~. Instructor Kim Soo-hyun~?”

Suddenly, a voice rising sharply grabs me. At first glance, I saw someone standing there holding a pile of records in his arms.

“Today’s training was really impressive. As the saying goes, you are good at speaking in a fun way. Ho Ho.”

The woman who smiled sweetly at me and spoke was none other than Jegal Haesol.

Thinking that she was a woman who smiled a lot, I quietly opened my mouth.

“I’m glad you heard me well. But what did you call me for? “The training is over.”

It was then. Suddenly, I felt someone cling to my side. As I heard heavy breathing, it seemed like Ansol had come running back.

Jegal Haesol looked down for a moment and looked at Ansol, then looked at me and tilted his head slightly. Then, his hair, which was upright, moved to the side where it was tilted.

Soon, Jegal Haesol’s lips opened.

“yes. But I’m really curious about something… . “Can I ask you a few questions?”

“sure. Questions about education are always welcome.”

“Ugh~. What should I do with this? “Actually, it’s not a question about education.”

“hmm? “Then?”

“I guess this is a bit of a personal question. Ho Ho. Actually, about that night… .”

“Well, that night?”

Ansol is startled and holds my waist tightly. I pressed down firmly on the top of her head to tell her to stay still, and then calmly shook her head.

“Then I refuse. “Because you’re not allowed to ask personal questions.”

“oh. “You are so heartless.”

Perhaps because I’ve changed my thoughts, the words flow more smoothly than before.

… Actually, I was a complete loser at that time. Because I couldn’t even say a word with Jegal Haesol in front of me.

But not anymore. Jegal Haesol was not a being to be feared, but a large prey.

“I’m even more surprised by that. You probably know that part better… . Oops. And since I will be patrolling that area frequently from now on, you would be better off not sneaking in at night anymore.”

“… Hmm. “That’s a shame.”

Then Jegal Haesol let out a low nasal sound.

And after a while.

The smile slowly begins to disappear from the face that was full of laughter. Next, she opened her eyes and looked at me in various ways, almost as if she was making an observation. I smiled slightly as I received that gaze.

“It’s no use. “Those eyes are definitely a good ability, but they only see what you can see.”

“… Just what you see? “What do you mean by that?”

Unlike before, the voice was quite calm.

But, I shrugged my shoulders.

“well. I’m telling you not to use it carelessly. It’s not that there aren’t users with resistance abilities, and it’s possible that they’ll get the opposite effect. ha ha ha… . ah. That’s a long story. “Anyway, if you don’t have any questions about education, that’s it.”

And just as I was about to turn around.

“wait a minute.”

At that moment, I felt a cold and soft touch in my hand.

Jegal Haesol held my hand.

—————————= Review of the work ——————– ——-=

hello~. This is Ro Yu-jin, who returned as of today. 🙂

As expected, I can’t leave writing even for a day. It’s only been three days, but it must be so awkward. ha ha ha.

Thank you very much to the readers who waited. I wanted to set it at midnight if possible, but time was tight, so I started writing it after I got home. ㅜ.ㅠ

Still, I think the three days were truly meaningful. I thought a lot about Memorize, and was able to organize a lot of it. First, I’m going to finish this user academy part quickly, and then I’m going to show you each step as I go along. Originally, I was thinking about 8 to 10 episodes remaining, but I decided to shorten it and finish with 6 episodes. I guess that makes me want to write the next story quickly. 😀

Anyway, thank you again to the readers for waiting, and I will work hard again starting today.

thank you _(__)_
