090. New
‘uh……?’
What was I doing? I couldn’t quite remember for a moment.
What he is holding is a carrier with luggage and someone whose face is not clearly visible.
Led by that person’s hand, I entered a fairly well-equipped accommodation.
‘The facilities are all good, but why is it so dark?’
It’s very spacious, but the overall atmosphere is dark. It feels like I’m the only one under the lights.
Well, it doesn’t matter as long as the training facilities are in good condition.
“You can use this room from now on. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Since it’s a single room, I don’t think you’ll experience any inconveniences.”
The door slammed shut.
It was a fairly spacious and comfortable room. There was also a personal feedback room where I could play back my past playlists.
It was only then that I noticed the new uniform and team name.
A familiar team.
‘That’s right… I was promoted from the 3rd division team to the 2nd division team, right?’
I don’t know why I only remembered this now. It’s not something I’d ever forget.
Even though I opened up ‘Mankae’, I now feel like I need to work harder.
‘I thought I had gotten stronger… … but the match against the 2nd division in the promotion/relegation match was surprisingly difficult.’
I couldn’t solve everything with just my own strength. Now that I’ve been promoted to the second division, my new team members are probably better than before, but my goal isn’t just this.
With that in mind, I went into the feedback room alone to review the match from the second division promotion match that I had lost a while ago.
The time spent sitting alone, simulating endlessly in my head, and moving forward.
No one else was needed at this time.
Looking back on previous games in that quiet silence, it was easy to see areas that needed improvement.
First of all, experience. It is true that he has excellent 1v1 skills, but there were many cases where he fell for the moves of experienced opponents.
I need to develop the ability to think. And also, in order to block the variables of the map, I need to memorize information about each map, and how to use mana equipment… … … … .
Before I knew it, time had passed by as I left the feedback room.
Outside the feedback room, it was still dark and quiet, nothing had changed.
Did he know that I was training? There was only a lunch box in the room.
‘Ah… … Now that I think about it, it was my first day on a new team, so I should have at least said hello to my teammates.’
I thought about it late, but it was still good.
I thought that since I wouldn’t be able to see her face again once I moved up to Part 1, there would be no benefit in being so attached to her.
Besides, we’ll get to know each other’s faces while playing. That’s not what’s important; in the end, it’s my skill.
That was what I felt most strongly while playing the 3rd match.
In the end, the only thing that proves a player’s worth is his or her own skills. Social skills and teamwork may all just be empty words.
‘Even I can see it that way. Those guys ended up rotting in the third part, but I made it to the top.’
I suddenly remembered the faces of the team members who had worked together in Part 3.
They were good guys. But that’s about it. Maybe it’s better not to think about them anymore.
Me too.
Even if I have a great skill called ‘Mankai’ and open it, I don’t know when I will be eliminated.
So, it would be better to not turn your head and just look forward.
That night too, I spent the night training alone until dawn.
Because we can’t stop here.
In a dark room with no one in it.
It was while I was trying to continue training again.
‘… … ! … … !!!’
What is it? A sound like something was ringing echoed.
Are you calling me from outside the room? At this hour of the morning?
Anyway, it was annoying to interrupt a player who was training. Even if he was a player who had just joined a new team, it seemed like he couldn’t go out with a good face.
The moment I opened the door, thinking I should let out a warning.
Wow!
Suddenly, a huge light came in.
‘… … .’
“Hey. Lee Chang-hyun! How long are you going to sleep!”
My vision was blurry so I couldn’t see who it was.
That was only for a moment. After rubbing my eyes, I could tell exactly who it was.
‘Han Ji-soo… … ?’
Who was Han Ji-soo? I was just training alone in the new 2nd team that I had just moved to.
Suddenly, my memories became jumbled up in a complicated way.
The time I failed the promotion battle in the 3rd division. And then the time I succeeded in getting promoted. The time my life changed. And then yesterday’s party.
All memories came flooding back.
Where I am now is not that place.
From the 3rd to the 2nd division, he had not just been called up and joined a new team, nor had he just opened up and started training.
‘I see… … It was a dream from before.’
I couldn’t help but laugh.
“Ah. I’m still not fully awake. I’m going to be late. Let’s go.”
This time, for real, I opened the door to the room with Han Ji-soo.
***
There were quite a few people gathered in the living room of PER’s home, which was reminiscent of an ordinary apartment house.
All the PER team members, and even me and the coach. Everyone looked busy.

“Why are you sleeping so late? Did you forget that you’re moving today?”
“I heard you received a lot of investment. Can I request a separate interior for my room?”
“Wake up.”
Entering the noisy and crowded living room, I felt a new sense of emotion.
Was it because I had a disturbing dream last night?
Lee Gil-han, who had stayed for a long time, looked like he had a mountain of luggage.
On the other hand, Han Ji-soo, who only brought in one carrier because she hates to accumulate a lot in just one season,
Just looking at the clothes he has packed, it looks like Kim Do-jun could open a clothing store…
Everyone was preparing to leave.
“Is it already today that I’m leaving… …
After receiving Lehmann’s investment, we decided to move the team home to a more professional and comfortable environment…
Work progressed faster than expected.
‘I told you that the team manager and coach will look into it soon.’
Now this team will become even better than before.
Naturally, that thought drew my attention to Coach Lee Jong-gyu.
“Why? Why… Changhyun, do you have something to say…? You’re not saying that you want to throw me away or anything, are you? We have feelings for each other.”
“I didn’t say anything.”
“No, it was because your eyes looked cold.”
He has no eye for the game, but his wit is incredibly quick.
Well, that being said, I honestly think it would be better to keep it going.
Even though it doesn’t help much internally, I’m doing various things externally.
“By the way, the last party was really fun. Wow. Is this what the second part is like?”
“I hate that. Drinking alcohol makes me dizzy and makes me vomit, so what’s the point of that?”
Han Ji-soo, who had intentionally not attended the party, rebuked Lee Gil-han for his words.
“Still, it’s a shame you didn’t come. You should have come and seen me. Yeonju was drinking and talking to Changhyun like that… …!”
“membrane…….”
Han Ji-soo opened her eyes wide without answering.
But the words never followed through.
Lee Yeon-ju, who couldn’t stand to watch anymore, stomped on Lee Gil-han’s foot.
“evil!”
After that, Lee Gil-han never brought up the story of the party again.
“By the way, Changhyun. Do you know what happened when you were away for a while on business?”
“Huh? What happened while I was away?”
Judging from the way Yoon Han-gyeol spoke as if he was holding back laughter, it seemed like something was going on.
But what could happen to that bird?
“After the awards ceremony, Kim Do-jun went out drinking again and then started flirting with another woman who was passing by, and he got really embarrassed.”
“what?”
When we were at the table together, my self-esteem would go downhill whenever I drank. What made that happen?
Kim Do-jun tried to make an excuse, but his excuse was drowned out by the laughter of the other team members.
It’s not that important. You don’t have to worry about it too much.
Since there was a party recently and the season was over, the team members were generally in a light and bright mood.
The home will change, and a new coach will come. Maybe Ryu Jae-jun or Jo Yeon-hwa, who were previously cast as mentors, will come.
“Changhyun-ah. The car is outside. Now, let’s just take our personal belongings and go out.”
“Okay, kids. Let’s go.”
***
As for the necessary furniture and facilities, they were all newly installed or equipped, so it wasn’t a large-scale move.
‘By the way, what kind of place is it…?’
I thought it would be okay to have high expectations since he was said to be a wealthy person who was quite well known overseas.
Of course, the facilities are good, but I think the best thing is that it is located in a big city, so transportation is more convenient.
With all that anticipation in the car, did you doze off for a bit?
The car suddenly stopped in front of a building.
“Wow… … Now our team is using this entire place?”
“I thought about this arrangement from the moment I came here. I came here despite being rejected by other teams, but the facilities should be at this level.”
“The facilities look a little better than others.”
It was a geometrically shaped building with six floors above ground.
A building with an artistic arrangement of all kinds of rectangular shapes, but with a somewhat lacking economic efficiency.
‘It’s cool, even if it’s a bit space-inefficient.’
It wasn’t just a long rectangular building, there were also some that jutted out and some that were twisted.
Lee Yeon-ju was so impressed by the clear glass windows on the first floor that she approached them by herself and looked inside.
As expected, someone came out from inside to greet us.
He was a pleasant-looking adult man dressed casually.
“Oh, you’ve arrived. Let me say hello. My name is Kim Seong-jun, in charge of facility management. Please take care of me.”
“Yes. I am Lee Chang-hyun, the owner and manager of Team PER. Please take good care of me.”
Since the building was so large, it seemed like they hired someone else.
“Oh, and this is what Lord Lehman said.”
[I happened to find a good deal, so I bought it quickly. This is good for you too. Since it is not a cheap deal, the return on your investment should be certain.
[There is no team name PER on the building. That means the investment in the team has not been fully confirmed yet. I hope you prove your team’s quality.]
This old man, he invested because of Chairman Lee Geun-taek, but he scared me.
This was followed by a description of the facility.
“The first floor is a cafeteria and restaurant. It’s not open yet today, but starting next week, my aunt will be coming to work.”
“Can I just pick anything here and eat it?”
Kim Do-jun, who was looking around here and there without properly listening to the explanation, ended up in a snack bar filled with snacks and drinks.
“Sure.”
At those words, Kim Do-jun seemed to be in a good mood already, as he took something out and started eating it.
Oh my. It’s not even a child… … No, is it really a child?
“The second floor is a ‘virtual reality practice room’ for Hunter’s League players. You’ll probably be surprised when you hear about the facility options, but even the pain options that apply from Part 1 are all possible.”
“It’s good.”
He said he didn’t have a choice, but it seems he did everything he could.
It’s expensive even if you don’t do it, but I understand that the price can change by several orders of magnitude depending on whether or not you have that option.
One barrel is a big yangban.
After taking a quick look around the practice space, I went up to the next floor.
It was a floor with only glass display cases and podiums.
“What is this place?”
