005. Talent development
I am in a situation where I can avoid all skills by seeing them first with [Piercing Eyes].
It was obvious who had the initiative in the situation.
‘Of course, it won’t be easy to approach because of the gravity attack.’
It was predictable, but it was because they kept pushing me away with their attacks.
‘It’s definitely a good ability to be selected by the Academy… … .’
Supporter, or mid-range dealer. It was a skill that could definitely deal damage, whether it was tying up the feet or dealing a significant blow with one hit.
It’s still at a level where I think the ability is good.
I made up my mind on how to knock her down, and immediately picked up a plate of food scattered around and threw it at Han Ji-soo.
Of course, the food plate that was flying due to the gravity attack fell down.
‘I should have avoided it.’
As expected, it was a moment where Han Ji-soo’s skill usage and inexperience in actual combat were revealed.
Naturally, no matter how quickly you use a skill, it will take some time.
The plate of food I threw didn’t stop at one, but continued with two, then three, and although I was able to block the third plate with a consecutive skill, I couldn’t block the second plate that flew at a rapid pace, and my face got hit by the food.
Pasta filled with cream sauce.
“This fucking… … .”
Han Ji-soo cursed softly and wiped her face, but her eyes stung because of the sauce on them.
And the moment I opened my eyes, the spot where Lee Chang-hyun had originally been was empty.
Instead, a sound was heard from the side.
“head!”
Han Ji-soo covered her head with both arms because her vision was blurry and she was confused.
But I laughed at that and punched Han Ji-soo in the stomach.
It was a really well-made, well-polished hit.
“Fuck… … I said head… … .”
My hands didn’t stop there.
“head!”
‘Where are you going this time? You said head again and stomach?’
While Han Ji-soo was absent-mindedly hesitating and unable to make a decision, the guard threw a punch at her again with a blank expression on his face.
“Head! Head! Head!”
As soon as the guard let down, I hit Han Ji-soo without hesitation like I was hitting a sandbag.
It didn’t take long for Han Ji-soo, who had been getting hit so many times, to collapse.
There are people in this world who just have to get hit.
Those are the dogs in human skin.
‘One index was also right.’
그런 개새끼를 두들겨 패서 교화시키는건 반드시 필요한 일임에 틀림없다.
The problem was that after hitting her once or twice like that, at some point Han Ji-soo suddenly collapsed.
But, unfortunately, when it comes to dealing with the aftermath, they won’t take into account the sacred purpose of education.
‘What should I do… … .’
I suddenly started to worry about how to handle the aftermath.
I didn’t break into the store, but I was the one who struck first. I was the one who fell. I was the one who got hurt.
If I just solve the store compensation problem, I’ll end up being the only bad guy…
I don’t know where Kim Do-jun went. Actually, I was thinking that maybe I could help him out a bit so that he wouldn’t hit me so much and could resolve the situation more smoothly… … .
That worry didn’t last long, because soon the sound of a police car was heard outside.
‘What should I do? It won’t work now… … .’
Before the regression, I had accumulated a lot of money and had some power, so I could cover up the fights between the Awakened. But not now.
I barely got my mom’s permission to become a hunter, but then my son woke up and started fighting outside and got called by the police?
This is probably the end.
After much deliberation, the answer was simple.
‘Let’s wake up Han Ji-soo again.’
I put my hand on his nose and he was breathing normally.
I lay down on the dirty floor of the restaurant, which was a mess, and made Han Ji-soo sit on top of me.
After that, I wiped the blood off Han Ji-soo’s face and put it on my face.
After finishing the preparations, I shook Han Ji-soo thoroughly while she was lying down and splashed cold water on her face.
Then Han Ji-soo quickly woke up.
“Ugh… … .”
Of course, the mind is practically in a daze and unable to make proper judgments.
I don’t know what Han Ji-soo was thinking, but fortunately, the guy moved according to plan.
“이 개새끼가.”
I don’t remember what happened, but when I woke up and was on top of him, he hit me in the face just like his role. When that happens, there’s only one thing to do.
“Stop hitting me, stop… … .”
He acted while lying down and crossing his arms to cover his face.
When the police came in, they would see the blood on my face, my disfigured face, and Han Ji-soo who was on top of me.
And it’s a win-win situation since it gives Han Ji-soo a chance to hit the kid she finds annoying.
Han Ji-soo didn’t miss the opportunity and swung his fist.
It wasn’t as spicy as I thought. It was because the condition wasn’t good and I blocked it well.
As expected, it seemed like he was either a supporter or a mid-range dealer.
There’s a guy there who came in with little skill and doesn’t know how to hit well with his fists.
But Han Ji-soo’s happy times did not last long.

The police arrived while I was struggling, swinging my fist at my face in a daze.
Beep beep beep-
“Officer, here you go!”
Kim Do-jun brought in the restaurant owner and special police officers specializing in the Awakened.
“Raise your hands and surrender quietly!”
The timing was perfect.
***
Was it because, fortunately, the police witnessed me being brutally(?) beaten at the end?
Compared to Han Ji-soo, I had almost no physical problems, but I was rarely identified as the perpetrator and suffered no harm.
Perhaps it was also because Han Ji-soo didn’t want to tell the story properly because she didn’t want to reveal to herself that she had been defeated by a young kid who had just awakened.
Of course, even if he had said that, there were still many traces of Han Ji-soo’s gravity skill left, so Han Ji-soo would have been judged to be largely at fault.
According to what I heard from Kim Do-jun, Han Ji-soo was put on probation while being looked down upon by her teammates, wearing a poison bottle. Kim Do-jun’s expression looked quite bright as he said that if he did something wrong, he might be kicked out of the academy.
‘As expected, justice still exists in the world.’
I guess it can be organized like that.
In fact, that kind of aftermath was fine, but there was also an unexpected outcome to this fight.
For some reason, my skill evaluated this as an achievement, and my talent blossomed to “full bloom.”
[keyword]
[Full Bloom – Talent Bloom: The One Who Talks and Strikes]: Shouting out the skill name and using it, or saying where to hit and hitting it, increases the destructive power. What you actually say and what you do don’t have to match.
‘What the hell… … .’
Unfortunately, there is no direct attack skill, so the skill cannot be used, but it seems like a skill that can be used in close combat. But what is this… … It is completely ridiculous.
‘I think it’s a keyword I’ve never seen before… ‘
Well, actually, there’s nothing wrong with having it, but… … I think it’s a keyword that’s perfect for getting called crazy if you use it too much.
Of course, the really important news wasn’t that I had gotten these keywords.
[Hunters, The Next Generation]
An audition program that discovers and trains the next generation of star hunters.
The news of the participant recruitment arrived by email.
“You want to go on the Hunter audition program?”
“Yes. First, I’d like to show you my potential there.”
Maybe Mom was wondering if I should take the academy exam.
But, unless you are a player being trained as a promising player at an academy, you must have been worried because the cost is enormous.
“But aren’t audition programs too competitive?”
It is definitely a very competitive program. It is a place where the most promising players from the Hunters League are selected by gathering all the Awakened players from around the country.
Of course, since the competition rate is high, even if you are not first place, you are given many opportunities if you have a high ranking… … .
‘Even so, it’s just picking the best among amateurs…
“Just let Changhyun do whatever he wants. People have to keep challenging themselves to succeed.”
“So you were just taking on challenges and then wasting all your work like that?”
“Why are you always talking about the past… … .”
Dad said something else too, but still… … It’s better than not saying anything. Sorry, Dad.
“I heard that if you win first place here, you can choose a team to go to not only the Academy but also the 3rd league, and the prize money is high, and they even make a custom weapon for you.”
“Well, since the competition is fierce, I guess they can do that much… …
“Since I’ve decided to do it, I’ll make sure to do it.”
“Then do that… … Even if you fall, Mom won’t know.”
I guess he feels a little heavy-hearted because, unlike other families, he can’t afford to give them expensive custom weapons or Awakener aptitude tests.
Since I couldn’t do those things, I guess I would have just closed my eyes and tried to help you when you tried to take the academy entrance exam…
Well, it’s fortunate that this will be the last financial worry for the family.

[Hunters, The Next Generation]. A festival for promising awakened people held once every three years.
Winning here alone brings recognition and huge rewards.
It’s only natural, as this is an event that aims to nominate the next star of the most popular sport, the Hunters League.
And of course, the judges were also only the top hunters in Korea or those who had been at the top.
Even though Korea is a remote country, even if it is the best in the world, it is not that great.
Anyway, Lee Min-seok, who was a member of the Korean national team and played for an overseas team, was one of them and raised the status of Korean hunters internationally.
Of course, Jo Ara and Jin Soo-hyuk, who are sitting together, also had considerable fame in Korea.
“The document submission period is coming up soon.”
“But Minseok oppa, at least while you’re still active, you don’t serve as a judge, so what’s going on?”
“I’ve been thinking a lot lately. I won the world championship, but… … Korea is my home country, so I wonder if I’ve been too indifferent.”
It is true that Lee Min-seok received the best treatment in the league due to his outstanding skills, but it is also true that there is a clear gap in the level of Korea compared to the world leagues.
Just because there’s one good player doesn’t mean the country is a hunter powerhouse.
“And I also wonder if there might be some outstanding talent among the gems that my juniors haven’t found yet… … .”
“I understand what Senior Minseok said… … In fact, there’s probably no one who catches your eye. If that were the case, you’d already be playing in the pro league or something. If you have that level of skill, the academy will treat you with special treatment and take care of you.”
“Junior Su-hyeok. That’s why that’s wrong. You can’t find the best players by finding ordinary, outstanding guys.”
It certainly sounded plausible. Not that the words themselves were convincing, but they were coming from a player playing for the best team in the world.
“Then how do you find it?”
“First of all, a guy who is not normal. And if you raise him, he is a real crazy guy who can put his abnormal methods into practice. He has the best chance.”
“Oppa… … You’re talking crazy again. A guy like that shouldn’t be a player, he should be taken to a mental hospital~”
“That’s because you guys haven’t seen Ethan. If he’s the best talent, then that’s how it should be. If you make normal choices, you’ll spend a dozen years just following the old-school League kids.”
Ethan was the team that Lee Min-seok was on. He was the ace of PEH, which is solidifying its absolute throne in the Hunters League in France. He is a hunter who is currently called the best player.
“Those kids usually lose their balance because of their crazy behavior, or they end up ruined because they follow other kids, so we’re correcting that.”
“Yes, yes. Oppa, do as you wish. After all, we each get one vote.”
Jo Ara and Jin Soo-hyuk didn’t seem to be listening to Lee Min-seok’s words, but it didn’t matter.
Lee Min-seok was participating as a judge for the first time, and he was burning with passion to find the best promising talent in Korea.
‘Let’s raise Korea’s Ethan with my own hands.’
Knowing that his time as a hunter was running out, Lee Min-seok steeled his resolve.
