Chapter 155
the next morning.
After about 10 hours of training, I returned to my room.
I wanted to continue training, but I can’t stay in my room forever.
We headed to the hotel restaurant to have breakfast.
“It looks like you haven’t fully recovered from your fatigue yet.”
On the way to the restaurant, Mr. Seok-hyeon sneakily appeared and asked. The color of worry is thick in the gaze that looks at me.
“As expected, the injury hasn’t fully recovered yet… … .”
“It’s just because I’ve been sleeping too long.”
Actually, I was tired because I had been training for 10 hours, but since I couldn’t talk about it in detail, I was vague.
“Are you still sleeping?”
“yes. I was sleepy and sleepy.”
“It looks like the aftereffects of the potion are still there.”
“It seems so. It seems that the accumulated fatigue from preparing for this Olympiad has come all at once.”
“okay. It deserves it.”
Mr. Seokhyun replied with a slightly relieved expression.
It seems that he was relieved that my tired appearance was not due to an injury.
“Then you will continue resting in your room today.”
“yes. I also want to do some conditioning. today… … Or maybe I’ll take a good rest until tomorrow.”
“A great choice. Resting while resting is the best training.”
Mr. Seokhyun nodded his head as if he was very satisfied.
that dramatic reaction.
It seems that he was worried that I would say that I will return to training right away from today.
“Then I will go back to the shadows.”
“Can’t we have breakfast together?”
“I’m not so ignorant that it interrupts my time with my classmates.”
Uncle Seokhyun smiled with a slightly smirk.
‘You really think I have feelings for Adela… … .’
If Mr. Seok-hyeon reacted like that, it means that my father is also convinced deep down.
This, going back to Korea will be a bit difficult.
As the head of the Sinbiwi family is a seriously ill daughter-in-law, she will definitely not leave me alone.
“Enough then.”
“Oh, one last thing. I’m not going to eat lunch separately today, so please don’t invite me until dinner time.”
“It’s not good to skip meals… … . All right.”
As if he thought he was going to sleep again until evening, Mr. Seokhyun nodded.
At the same time, Uncle Seok-hyeon’s Shin-young disappeared.
As expected, the stealth magic that is close to perfection like Mr. Seok-hyun… … .
‘… … uh?’
should have been
‘… … Why can’t I see it?’
what is this
The figure of Mr. Seok-hyun, who is hiding, is visible.
‘Have you made a mistake?’
no. That’s not going to happen.
Currently being backed up by AI.
The probability of making a mistake in using magic is less than 0.01%.
Not to mention, there is almost no chance that magic used in a calm situation like now will cause an error.
‘And if the AI made an error, there’s no way Mr. Seok-hyeon would be so peaceful.’
If an error occurred, you would have to cancel the magic and use it again.
You can’t stay still like that.
In other words, there was absolutely no problem with Mr. Seokhyun’s magic.
This conclusion follows.
‘Unless there is a problem with Mr. Seokhyun’s magic… … Did my sensing ability increase?’
Did Shinan even grow?
no. That doesn’t even make sense.
‘But I didn’t see it until yesterday. Does it make sense to suddenly look like this?’
Sinan grows with the achievement of the Bytenor style.
And it was a week ago that I made the 5th circle.
In other words, Shinan finished growing a week ago.
But suddenly today, you can see Mr. Seokhyun’s hiding place?
I didn’t see it until yesterday, but all of a sudden?
nonsense.
In other words, this is not the same as the increase in sensing ability according to the growth of Shinan.
So why did this change happen?
‘If you say that yesterday and today have changed… … .’
Danjeon circular breathing training.
‘Presence or absence of a mana core.’
Now, the mana core is starting to settle in my body.

A millet-sized core that is still smaller than a bean.
‘Is it because of this?’
I caressed my stomach, just above where the mana core was.
‘… … A mana core of this size can produce such an effect?’
It was an incredibly powerful effect.
* * *
After a light breakfast, Soonchan and Adela were having a light coffee.
“Then, will Divi sleep all day again? What, are you trying to evolve by sleeping?”
Soon-chan insinuated while drinking a mint chocolate latte.
“If not at a time like this, when are you going to sleep? I’m going to take this opportunity to get some rest.”
“Do it. I was running so hard. well thought out Take this opportunity to rest well.”
Sunchan’s eyes brightened mischievously.
“Good. Then how about sleeping for a month at all? I can make you sleep well.”
Sunchan clenched his fists and smiled wickedly.
He slams his clenched fist straight into the air.
“You can really get a good night’s sleep with this sweet night.”
“Ah, sleepy fist? It’s good. My fists taste good too. Shall we exchange? It seems like you haven’t been getting enough sleep lately.”
I also smiled and clenched my fists. Then, with all his might, he slammed into the air.
Whoa!
The sound of my fist cutting through the wind resounded viciously.
Soon-chan made a ‘hi-ik’ sound with a cold expression.
“Adventure. Big hum. They say it’s not good for the body to force external blows into the barrel.”
Soonchan quickly lowered his tail and looked away.
Then, he brought his mouth to the straw and sucked on the drink with his blind eyes.
I’m messing around.
I smiled and lowered my fist.
“Cool, cool! big!”
It seems that I heard a sare from drinking too fast. Sunchan coughed violently.
“Hey. Are you okay?”
“Fine… Cool! water… Water, please… … .”
Soonchan looked at my cup and said with difficulty.
As I was drinking iced Americano, I must have thought of drinking it instead of water.
“sorry. I drank it all.”
But after drinking it all.
All that remains is ice.
“Cool! sooner… … Kellogg! Drink!”
Tears flow from the eyes.
It seems that the saree was caught very well.
“I was punished for eating something like mint chocolate latte.”
“Damn it… … . Cool! Adela… Just one sip of that… … Cool!”
“yes?”
Adela, who was next to her holding a straw like a hamster, asked back in surprise.
“… … .”
He made a serious expression as he alternately looked at the vanilla latte he was drinking and Soon-chan, who seemed to be suffering in the world.
It must be that he is clashing with the desire to help Soon-chan, who is immersed in pain, and the heart that he cannot hand over his vanilla latte.
‘I’m worried. Think about it.’
FYI, that vanilla latte is not an ordinary latte.
The chef, who has previously made bread with banana milk for Adela, made it using banana milk as well, making it a perfect Adela-like drink.
That’s why you worry like that. That’s because it’s not a drink that you can taste again if you want to taste it.
“… … .”
Adela removed her mouth from the straw and moved the cup around.
He handed it over to Soonchan, then held it back in his arms.
I pushed it out to Soon-chan again, and hugged him again as if it wouldn’t work.
After repeating the action a total of 4 times.
“… … Here you go.”
As if she had finally made up her mind, she handed the cup to Sunchan.
face is crying
‘I’m passing that.’
To be honest, I was a little surprised.
Adela’s obsession with banana milk is almost pathological.
To think that Adela would give up the original brandy vanilla latte.
“thank you.”
Soon-chan, who was constantly choking, quickly pulled a straw out of his cup and inserted it into Adela’s cup.
In other words, Soon-chan must have been considerate of Adela.
but.
“sleep… … !”
Seeing this, Adela opened her eyes and shouted.
However, the straw was already stuck in the cup.
“… … phew. I’m going to live now thank you.”
“… … .”
That’s a mistake.
That too is a huge mistake.
“Adela?”
“… … .”
Adela’s eyes are dead.
Eyes of a dead mackerel.
A lifelike look that will kill you right now.
“Why, why?”
Frightened by those eyes, Soonchan trembled in his voice.
“… … mixed up.”
“what?”
Sunchan asked as if he hadn’t heard.
“It was mixed.”
“Are you mixing? what?”
Soonchan turned his gaze to Adela’s latte.
“ah. Did you mix it with the mint chocolate latte? no way. what about It was a bit mixed.”
“… … .”
Adela’s expression grew even more frightening.
“If it was mixed like that, it would be rather delicious, right? Oh yeah. If you take this opportunity to try it, Adela, you too… … .”
Sunchan stopped talking and kept his mouth shut.
It seems that he has finally noticed Adela’s bloody spirit.
“When a drop of muddy water is mixed with water… … . Is it water or muddy water?”
“Uh, huh? That’s muddy water… … ?”
“It’s like that.”
Adela glared at the drink that “was” a vanilla latte with a cold expression.
“This is just mint chocolate now… … .”
“No, I will definitely eat it anyway, but comparing it to muddy water… … .”
“It means the same thing to me.”
I don’t think I need to say anything now.
Adela has a severe mint chocolate phobia.
If it’s mint chocolate, it’s very high.
“… … song.”
Adela took a deep breath.
I slowly got up from my seat.
“Uh, where are you going?”
“training… … I have to go.”
Soonchan broke out in a cold sweat.
“We decided to practice sparring today, right? I’m already looking forward to it. I have some leeway. It would be nice to take this opportunity to test the durability of the octagonal gate to the limit.”
“Adela? excuse me. Adela?”
Adela took Soon-chan’s hand and moved toward the training ground.
While being dragged away, Soonchan asked for help with his eyes.
I turned my head without the slightest hesitation.
“… … .”
Even if you touch it, you touch Adela’s evil.
I put my hands together and prayed for Soonchan’s safety.

that evening.
Working hard on training to weave mana cores on the pages of the fifth trial.
“stop. Today’s training will end here.”
Aslan announced the suspension of training.
“We still have an hour or so until dinner, are you done already?”
The current time is 6 PM.
Dinner is at 7 o’clock.
I still have a bit of leeway.
“It is not a skill to train for a long time. Especially in cases where repetitive training is required, such as a mana core.”
Aslan stared intently at my abdomen, the Danjeon side.
“If you put that much load on the mana core. You should rest for at least 5 hours. It is much more efficient.”
“okay.”
Load.
I actually felt the mana core creaking.
I thought this sensation was evidence of muscle soreness and growth.
It seems that it was not.
“All right.”
I got out of the lotus position and got up.
At the same time, I stretched my neck, hands, and legs by turning them around.
The lotus position is good, but this is the problem. After training, my whole body is sore.
widely-
Aslan, who had moved behind me, put his hand on my back and poured mana into it.
His mana traveled through my mana circuit.
“hmm. It should be about the size of a pea now.”
Through inner contemplation, I confirmed my mana core.
“Not bad speed.”
Aslan smiled and removed his hand.
“… … That’s not too bad.”
Average, neither good nor bad.
I guess that’s just about it.
To be honest, I thought it was pretty fast.
‘When I looked into the training process of the knight academy, they said it would take at least a month to get here.’
haha
Because Aslan said that he was in charge of educating many trainees.
The reference point will be different.
People of that era could have been much more outstanding.
“okay. To be more diligent.”
“yes. I’ll try my best.”
Well, I don’t mean to be in a hurry. what if average It’s just that I just have to go straight at my pace.
There is nothing more stupid than comparing yourself to others and overdoing it.
“… … It is already mentally completed.”
“yes?”
“I didn’t say anything.”
Aslan swung his hand down and opened the portal.
“Are you coming back right after dinner?”
“no. I have something to do, so I think I will be a little late.”
At night, there will be a tea party with the blue mage tower lord in my room.
After I finish the schedule, no matter how fast it will be 10 o’clock.
“It’s good to sell. To think that trainees prioritize their own personal affairs.”
“… … haha.”
Asran, who couldn’t tell if it was a joke or serious, passed the words off as a moderate laugh.
“Be back in five hours.”
“yes. All right.”
He was telling me to return until the mana core load was fully recovered.
“okay. Then just leave.”
“yes. See you later.”
I walked out to the portal like that.
‘Then what shall I do with the remaining hour?’
I slowly picked up the phone I had placed on the table.
‘I still haven’t heard from my sister.’
I recalled the phone number written on the note left by my sister.
After I was discharged, I asked to leave a text message, so I left it.
No news yet.
“hmm.”
Why did you leave me such a note, and what was it that you meant to say?
I let my imagination run wild and turned my phone’s lock screen off and on again.
It was then.
Ugh-!
Sure enough, the phone rang.
[Restrict Caller ID]
It’s a restricted caller ID. I got a call right away.
-hi.
“sister… … .”
Shin Se-ah.
Her voice came through the speaker.
―I’m running out of time, so I’ll tell you quickly.
The tone of voice is lower than usual.
It felt like he was very careful about saying a single word.
Sister Seah paused for a moment.
You can feel a lot of emotion in the sound of your breathing beyond the receiver.
Was it even crying?
The sound of breathing is trembling.
-Listen carefully.
It seems that I have finished clearing my mind.
Sister Se Ah began to speak in a trembling voice.
―Jihan oppa is using me to kill you.
“… … .”
My pupils have grown to the point where they can’t get any bigger.
-If this continues, both you and I will die.
