063. Gap of understanding

I’m wandering.

If there was a word that best suited Jo Yeon-hwa, it would be this one.

It was a very unfamiliar situation for Jo Yeon-hwa, as she had climbed up faster and more quickly than anyone else.

Part 3 Debut. It was too easy. Insufficient weapon skills, immaturity that prevented him from even using mana equipment properly.

It only took a moment for him to make it to the second division, and he was immediately crowned the youngest first division league hunter.

The first division, which was looked up from below and laughed at, was not as easy as expected.

To be honest, considering the Hunters League’s standing in the world, I thought it wouldn’t be difficult to make it to the first division since Korea was lagging behind.

However, it was Jo Yeon-hwa who challenged the Hunter’s League and ended up getting crushed.

A decent all-rounder. That was Jo Yeon-hwa’s reputation as a first-division leaguer.

I couldn’t even dream of being called a legend of a hunter who succeeded the first generation of hunters, or a hunter who leads the Korean league.

I felt the wall. I felt suffocated.

But, a third-division leaguer I met by chance, no, someone I met because he said he was promising, said that this is where my limits are.

What would a guy who barely played in the third division know? But I couldn’t hold back my rising anger.

“Yeonhwa! Jo Yeonhwa!”

Jo Jun-ho followed and grabbed her wrist.

“… … Why. Why did you bring me out?”

My heart ached. It was nothing special, and it was nothing special. But strangely, every word he said struck me deeply.

“I thought it would be a stimulus for you. That guy is going through a similar path to you.”

I’ve heard a bit about him. He’s a rising rookie. However, he’s still a 3rd division player. It’s hard to be sure that he’ll make it to the 2nd division, let alone the 1st division…

As if he had caught onto my thoughts, Jo Jun-ho sent me an article from the Internet.

[Hunter’s League Part 3, Typhoon’s Eye Lee Chang-hyun. Who is he?]

In addition to the 2nd and 1st divisions that have been experiencing upheaval recently, there is a player who is a hot topic in the 3rd division. That player is Lee Chang-hyun, the winner of [Hunters – The Next Generation].

First of all, he was a hot topic for a while when he declared that he would act as a player, manager, and proxy owner right from his debut, but his activities did not end there.

It was the team that transformed PER, which had been a losing team all season, into the number one team.

It has been reported that despite being a third division team that does not receive much public attention, the team is beginning to receive a lot of attention from fans.

That’s not all. The most talked about point was the interview with Takumi Minamino, a famous Japanese long-range dealer, after the last Hunters League Korea-Japan national team match, which had nothing to do with him.

When asked to name the most impressive player or player to look forward to, Takumi Minamino did not name a single Korean national team player, but the one who was unexpectedly mentioned was Lee Chang-hyun.

Since it was a 3rd division league, many Korean fans did not know about it, and there was even an incident where they repeatedly posted question marks in the comments.

After the Korea-Japan match, an anonymous player said that Takumi Minamino and Chang-Hyeon Lee won a 1-on-1 match using the rules of ranked matches, but the truth of this has not been confirmed.

However, the general opinion is that Takumi’s mention of him in the interview is tantamount to proving his skills to some extent.

… … Omitted]

‘Owner, manager, and player? Something like that… … .’

When I first read it, I was dumbfounded.

However, I was a little surprised that they had brought the undefeated team to first place, and then I frowned at the fact that they had beaten Takumi, although the truth of this was not confirmed.

No way. It was most likely not true.

Of course, I have heard Takumi’s interview, so it is true that Takumi had his eye on him.

‘after…….’

But that alone was huge. The difference between the 3rd and 1st divisions is extreme, and the difference between the Korean and Japanese leagues is also huge.

In that situation, receiving Takumi’s recognition meant a lot.

But recognition is just recognition, and even then, he is only a third-tier player.

However, I couldn’t help but feel hurt. Unlike myself who had hit a wall, the sight of him moving forward without stopping complicated my feelings.

“Okay. I’m not interested. I’ll go in and rest.”

“……okay.”

After entering the room, I lay down on the bed. Suddenly, I thought of my childhood friend and training partner Ryu Jae-jun, who I heard had just debuted.

‘The guy just debuted, so he’s probably in the third part now… … .’

I wonder if Ryu Jae-jun has met that guy. If he has, what would he think? I was a little intrigued.

Suddenly, I felt curious and turned on my phone to contact Ryu Jae-jun.

***

Chairman Lee Geun-taek did issue a rather stern warning, and it was quite telling, but that didn’t mean there was anything special to do right away.

As a result, it was a problem that could be solved by raising the team’s own weight class, and that was my goal.

Of course, I wasn’t neglecting my training because I was worried about my teammates.

I had been steadily improving my status through basic training, so even at this moment, under the influence of [Full Bloom], I was growing faster than my teammates.

Also, to be honest, I’ve already reached the end of growth once, so I don’t know what to do next.

I honestly didn’t have to worry about my training because I knew what to do.

‘But these guys… … .’

These guys are really hands-on.

In the end, raising it would be one step closer to my goal, but it was an inevitable part that I had to be careful about.

And the guy we’re looking at in detail today is Yoon Han-gyeol.

“Han-gyeol hasn’t been able to exert much strength lately… … His ranking score has also stagnated. His score isn’t that low right now. Should I buy him some nutritional supplements?”

And today again, Coach Lee Jong-gyu was unable to grasp the context of the problem, as if he had just gotten the coaching position by swindling.

“The Hunter is a nutritional supplement?”

When I glared at him, Lee Jong-gyu backed away. It seems he knew something was off even after he said it himself.

Han-gyeol’s problem is not like that now. No, it’s a bit awkward to even call it a problem.

The problem with this guy is that he is stuck in that ‘frame’ studying and learning other swordsmanship, so he is not able to grow explosively.

‘The advantage of the Igi Sword is not simply that it allows long-range combat or that you can control multiple swords.’

The biggest difference between the sword and regular swordsmanship is the freedom of attack.

Because it is possible to perform movements that are normally impossible for humans.

It is impossible to predict the outcome of a sword due to human joints, body movement categories, etc. Is that all?

Because it moves independently of the human body, it ignores the organic flow of general sword strikes through the opponent’s gaze, footsteps, and body movements.

Also, since swordsmanship itself is something that humans do, when dealing with someone, it is inevitable that they will attack while blocking vital points or dangerous attacks.

With this sword, you can swing your sword with only the thought of attacking, without having to block it by touching it.

That freedom creates the possibility of infinite attacks that were previously impossible, and the overwhelming attack power that comes from that freedom is the essence of the Igi Sword.

In other words, Yoon Han-gyeol must ‘break away’ from the swordsmanship he has learned so far and walk his own path.

‘And that’s not something you can do just by telling them.’

Walking on a path that someone else has walked and walking on your own path are two completely different things.

While he was thinking for a moment, Yoon Han-gyeol had already finished the ranked match and came out.

“Don’t bother Coach Lee Jong-gyu too much. Coach Lee Jong-gyu is a bit incompetent, but… …he drives well, and most importantly, he always cooks for me.”

“Han-gyeol, you too… … .”

Well, he may not be very good at planning tactics and his analytical skills are lacking, but when it comes to cooking and driving, there is no one better than Coach Lee Jong-gyu.

It might be a better fit for you to do that.

“By the way, what’s going on?”

Since we usually wait until the individual ranking matches are over to talk about it separately, Han-gyeol seemed quite nervous.

“It’s nothing special, I just think I’ve been struggling quite a bit lately.”

“That’s true… … .”

Yoon Han-gyeol said with a bitter expression. Well, the one who feels the most frustrated is probably himself.

I thought that if I just worked hard, I would go up, but I haven’t made any progress lately.

‘I guess you wouldn’t be too happy to receive advice from me.’

Even though he is also a director, it must be quite a blow to his pride to be criticized by someone his age.

Well, getting hurt is inevitable. What can you do when skill is the top priority?

I said it with that thought in mind. I had to say it anyway.

“I’m talking about the Igi-geom you’re using now. You shouldn’t use it as if you were using a traditional sword technique. Right, don’t even think of it as using a sword technique.”

“It doesn’t feel like using a sword?”

He hesitated for a moment at those words, and I could sense that he was seriously thinking about it.

But after that wait, Yoon Han-gyeol nodded vigorously as if he realized something and said.

“All I had to do was change my mindset!”

As expected of a smart kid, he seemed to have felt something even though I only said one word.

‘He was a guy with some feel even before his regression.’

It would be nice to have at least one guy that takes less work to maintain balance.

Actually, it’s been like that since before, but I’ve been able to communicate fairly well with Yoon Han-gyeol.

“I understand. What you mean?”

As expected. Even though Yoon Han-gyeol has been acting a bit strange lately, he is a guy with a good head on his shoulders. He’s also pretty trustworthy.

With those words, Yoon Han-gyeol returned to the ranking match.

The opponent is a melee dealer with a similar score to Han-gyeol.

The compatibility was good. I think I’ll win easily this time.

It’s something that can be done by just changing your mindset. You can just break away from your usual swordsmanship and just blindly attack any gaps you see with your sword.

And once he understands what I say, he will show off his unexpected and sharp sword skills just like before his regression.

‘Am I the only one on this team?’

I liked this pretty perfect situation where I could communicate well with these guys and give them proper analysis and growth manuals.

I felt happy because it seemed like I was taking full advantage of the benefits of regression.

‘Raising children is also a job.’

But that expectation was really, really betrayed in just a few seconds.

That crazy bastard, Yoon Han-gyeol, told me not to use the Igi Geogeom like a sword, so he didn’t perform any swordsmanship at all.

As if… …yes, a gun. I was maniacally manipulating multiple swords like I was using a gun, and I was just throwing the swords like bullets.

Then, of course, the opposing hunter, being a superhuman, blocked all the flying swords with his shield and sword.

No, the other side seemed to be puzzled as well.

You probably thought something like, ‘Why does he just shoot the sword in one dimension and then retrieve it?’

What the fuck… … .

‘What on earth was I expecting… … .’

I should have figured it out when you said you understood it perfectly even though I didn’t explain it much…

As expected, Yoon Han-gyeol suffered a much bigger defeat than before despite being an opponent with a similar score.

“I should have shot more sharply, like I was shooting a gun, rather than using a sword. The direction you mentioned is definitely right, but it’s not something I can get used to right away.”

He was definitely talking nonsense.

“Hey, you idiot.”

When this guy tried to talk about swordsmanship that was free from common sense, it seemed like he understood that he was talking about shooting a gun instead of a sword.

In the end, I had to explain everything from start to finish that day in detail to make Yoon Han-gyeol understand.
