Episode 198 Education

When selecting a player, I basically consider the team’s compatibility and ability. Realistic circumstances are important, but I also think it’s quite important what the team members think of the person.

That makes sense. After all, in order to work together as a team, there’s no need to bring in teammates who are just a bunch of rascals, right?

“Do you know player Cha Jun-gyu?”

So, in Part 1, I asked Lee Seong-tae, who had some time, to look at the applicant profiles and ask if he knew about certain players.

“Ah… … That guy? He’s just that guy. He joined SSA because his abilities were pretty good, so the team wanted to use special tactics, but he was more useless than expected, so he was always on the bench. Should I pick him?”

Lee Seong-tae grimaced.

Did you really think it wouldn’t help at all?

“I wasn’t trying to pick you. I just asked you to see if you knew about your image and performance. There are many cases where what’s shown on paper isn’t everything.”

But it seemed like there was no need for Lee Seong-tae to say anything more.

Because it seemed like he had already heard the whole story from her expression.

‘Well, who knows… … You never know. It might be quite interesting in the first test.’

On hold for now.

***

Enchantment. Cha Jun-gyu’s ability to add special properties to weapons.

It was such a good ability that it caught the eye of Jo Ara, SSA’s top player and senior, and it was thought that she would be able to support him.

‘But then you kicked me out like that… … You just used me once and let me rot on the bench.’

There were so many people who didn’t have an eye for people.

‘But now it’s different.’

On the other side. It seemed like a guy with a name tag that said Kim Do-jun was also using a sword.

A fight between two inspectors of the same class. However, Cha Jun-gyu can enchant his weapon.

It’s a fight where you can tell who has the advantage without even looking at it.

‘In something like swordsmanship, someone who has practiced it for a long time will have an advantage.’

With that thought in mind, Cha Jun-gyu enchanted the sword he was holding.

[Enchant]: Magic Sword – Increases destructive power and can grant attributes.

In addition to the magical power that overflows, it has an ice attribute that is enchanted with a characteristic that causes a debuff that dulls the opponent’s sword the more it is combined with the opponent’s sword.

With this, even if our swordsmanship skills are similar, the fight will be decided easily.

Cha Jun-gyu, who was ready, ran towards Kim Do-jun.

But surprisingly, the opponent seemed to have been waiting for that.

‘Smile……’

He thrust his sword out wide, as if to further expose his weakness, as Cha Jun-gyu rushed at him, looking for an opening.

‘What special abilities do you have?’

At that moment, I was nervously staring at the sword, anticipating all the different changes that would occur.

It shone.

The sword simply shone brighter than I could ever imagine.

It’s a truly overwhelming feast for the eyes.

“Kuaaaahh …

The absurdity of not being able to understand what happened in the moment. And the level of eye strain where even when you close your eyes, a faint light flickers in front of you.

Yes. It wasn’t some kind of ability, it was just a simple, absurd trick.

It’s like being blinded by a headlight dazzler while driving a car. It’s something that makes you think it’s cheap and petty.

In a fight between sacred hunters… …

The guy didn’t miss that opportunity and came after me openly.

I couldn’t help but get even angrier when I heard the guy’s voice chuckling softly, as if he was laughing at me getting properly stabbed in the eye.

But somehow, even in such a dangerous situation, I felt like I was able to block his sword with my intuition…

‘Good. That guy’s sword will now have the cold attribute transferred to it, making it much heavier.’

Is there a mountain beyond a mountain?

It’s funny to think that way. The change that occurred when their swords clashed was completely unexpected.

Kkieeeeeek!

The sound of a person with long fingernails scratching a blackboard with both hands was as loud as if it were being turned up by a loudspeaker.

My eardrum is ruptured.

I don’t remember much after that. My ears kept ringing and I couldn’t see well even when I opened my eyes because of the blurred vision.

I think I got hit by something blunt right after that.

My memory was cut off there.

***

Suddenly -.

How much time had passed since the film cut off?

When Cha Jun-gyu opened his eyes with a start and raised his upper body, he found himself in the waiting room.

And perhaps because the test had already been completed, the screen in front showed other people taking the test.

‘……’

It took me a while to figure out what was going on. It seemed like some time had passed and the test was nearing its end.

But now that I was starting to understand the situation and think about it, I started to get a little angry.

Yes, we can make a hundred concessions and bring in dealers from other teams to make the test more difficult for the players who are coming to take the PER test.

And you can create the most favorable conditions for your proud team dealers and show them to the test takers.

How proud must the owner be to have such good players in a team that has just entered the first division.

but

‘You’re going to fight me with something that’s more flashy than the high beams of a car, and that’s clearly intended to be a dazzling sight?’

This was a deception.

It would be like looking at the applicant as nothing more than water. There is a limit to how much you can tolerate. It was very difficult to see it this way.

At that moment, the gradation gradually increased the anger.

Just as the last person’s test was over, the people who appeared to be the manager and coaching staff, and Lee Chang-hyun, the person with real power on this team, came in.

“Thank you all for your hard work in testing. I had prepared some more tests, but I don’t think we’ll need any more. You can go back. I’ll contact you separately later.”

Upon hearing that, the applicants began to leave one by one.

‘No… … You said it was the first test. I haven’t shown you anything yet. Then what about me? What about me??’

I couldn’t help but open my eyes in a moment of confusion.

Meanwhile, most of the people had left and only a few people were left.

“Oh, and the last applicant… … Lee Seo-hyun, could you please wait a moment?”

PER called the last applicant and whispered to him.

Almost everyone went out.

He was speaking without lowering his voice.

“Thank you for your support. If we hadn’t held an open recruitment, we would have missed out on such talented individuals.”

“Me… …? Me?”

The woman had a helpless expression on her face, as if she didn’t know she would be chosen. Her face was flushed with joy.

‘That guy got picked? Me?’

My head suddenly went blank. They said they would notify the other applicants separately after they had left, but they only caught the successful candidate and notified her of her acceptance.

Well, if you don’t call my name, it’s no different from failing.

I couldn’t stand it any longer.

“No. Look. You said it was the first test. And you put a guy who can deal with such ridiculous things in there and that’s considered a test? Oh, really. Just feed the applicants. The higher-ups must have been laughing at how they did it.”

As I spoke, I remembered the humiliation I had suffered and seemed to be getting angrier.

“You came to a team that had no foundation to test you out, and not only did you not treat them well, but you made them do such strange tests. When you went inside to be serious, they started messing around, making a scene, and making noise. What? This is deception. They have no manners toward the players.”

Still, it’s a do or die situation. It’s going to end up like this anyway. I have to say everything I want to say.

But surprisingly, the guy was laughing rather than answering it.

“Kick… … Kickkickkick. Oh. Is it rude? There are still people left. But what, a prank? A player deception. Hmm… … Coach Jong-gyu. Wasn’t that the kid who got knocked out by Do-jun?”

“Oh. So Dojun was carried outside. He said he was surprised when he fainted even though the pain wasn’t that bad.”

“What did you just say… … !”

“Oh, I wasn’t trying to tease you. I just thought of you when I saw you fighting with Dojun earlier. Oh, so what did you say? A strange test… or something? I didn’t tell you that I failed, so how did you know?”

“If you think about it, that’s obvious… … .”

“Do you think you deserved to fail? But you still find it hard to accept it? Okay, Coach Lee Jong-gyu. Please prepare the practice room.”

The guy suddenly entered the practice room where the lights had been turned off and it was bright again.

“The real test… … No. Since you asked why I’m not doing a second test since it’s the first, let’s do a second test. It won’t be weird this time. I’ll do it myself.”

I was clearly angry until just now, but maybe it was because I was giving him a cold stare overall.

I felt a little intimidated.

‘But we still have to argue. After all, we got another chance through a legitimate protest.’

Phew. I heard it’s pretty good, but there’s still a lot I haven’t shown you yet.

Even though I argued with him, judging from his smile, it doesn’t seem like the mood is that bad yet.

Cha Jun-gyu followed Lee Chang-hyun into the practice room.

***

Among the Hunter’s intelligences. No, I don’t know if this applies to ordinary people as well. Self-objectification is really important.

‘Especially in the case of hunters, just by becoming self-objectified and recognizing in advance that it is a losing fight, they can change the game by running away.’

Especially since there is no such thing as an unconditionally strong hunter.

Unless you have the ability to turn the tables by using [Mana Expansion], there are many cases where there are compatibility issues and the upper hand is reversed depending on the ability.

In that situation, because you’re in a good 1-on-1 form these days, you can’t just consider your opponent, fail to be objective about yourself, and just recklessly charge in thinking you can win?

To be blunt, I couldn’t help but see that as disqualifying him from being a hunter.

‘But a guy who only knows how to charge like a dog says the test is weird?’

There is a fairly tightly woven evaluation standard. And there is also a certain level of insight that comes from having won several international leagues.

It’s been a long time since I’ve been ignored like this.

Even more so recently, since he has been receiving some recognition even after his return.

It was a refreshing shock.

‘Although it is a 1-on-1 test, we looked closely at the players who are not specialized in one-on-one matches so that we could see their strengths.’

It seems that all such arrangements and observations through concentration were meaningless.

When I see a guy talking nonsense like this in front of me.

Well, anyway, things have come to this.

Then wouldn’t there be no choice but to inject them one by one into the head?

“The real test… … No. Since you asked why I’m not doing a second test since it’s the first, let’s do a second test. It won’t be weird this time. I’ll do it myself.”

Wouldn’t it be easier to understand the evaluation if you directly insert the evaluation concept one by one?

“Oh, and this time, I’ll explain it clearly so that you understand, so that something like what just happened won’t happen again.”

Okay, let’s educate this rude guy.
