Episode 242

companion (4)

The beginning of anything is difficult.

“Oh, one leaked. It’s Serin’s side! Mr. Serin. Free role! “In the meantime, we will support ourselves.”

“check. “I’ll be back quickly.”

“done! I went into shock. Deal timing! Mr. Seo-yoon. Yoo Seon, it’s now!”

“yes.”

“Please leave it to me!”

Boom! Yoo Seon and Seoyoon’s simultaneous attack exploded on the contaminated Death Knight. As Holy attribute damage was added with Seoyoon’s buff, the Death Knight screamed in pain.

“Sooooo… !”

thud.

As the Death Knight’s huge body fell to the side, Haesik lowered his shield and exhaled loudly.

“Whew. I think this wave is over. When Serin comes back, she will take a little rest and then proceed to the next wave.”

Yuseon and Seoyoon nodded at Haesik’s words. And Jeong-do, who was standing next to him and watching quietly, nodded.

‘It’s much better.’

It was visible that teamwork increased as the dungeon was cleared. Each party member was moving organically around Haesik’s orders.

‘I think things will be better if Seoyoon orders.’

The order for a dungeon expedition is usually given by a tanker who can immediately grasp the situation at the front line or a supporter who can make comprehensive decisions at the last line.

But if I had to narrow it down to just one, it would be supporters. In the case of frontline tanks, there were too many cases of being caught up in unexpected situations.

‘… But it won’t work.’

Jeong-do glanced at Seo-yoon. She was silently wiping away the foreign matter on her gauntlets. Then, perhaps sensing Jeong-do’s gaze, she raised her head and looked at him. Seoyoon smiled very faintly.

‘If you do half as much as you do to me, you’ll be able to function as a leader.’

I’m not saying she’s my favorite younger sister, but she’s very talented.

An all-rounder who possesses both a cool-headed mind and a wild sense, and is capable of both dealing and supporting.

He doesn’t shy away from bad things and doesn’t complain. In addition, he had the drive to move forward without hesitation when he thought it was right.

The super talented person that any guild could not help but covet was Seoyoon.

but.

‘It’s because my communication skills are so miserable… .’

She was still very shy. That too badly.

I can count on ten fingers the people she can open up and talk to. Probably Triple S guild members, including my family and myself.

It wasn’t like he had a proper conversation with other guild members either, he just accepted them when they said hello or made small talk.

I could tell that I had seen her for a long time. She hasn’t even completely opened her heart to Hae-sik yet.

It goes without saying, but smooth communication between team members is essential when exploring a dungeon. This is especially true if you are a leader who must understand all situations and issue orders in a timely manner.

‘This is Seoyoon, who yells at her team members to do this and that.’

To be honest, I never could have imagined it. Jeongdo let out a short sigh. That’s why I don’t know how I ever worked in sales in the past. According to her, she just took out the contract and showed it to him without saying anything, and the business partner’s boss was stunned for a moment and then signed it in a hurry… Does that make sense?

‘I’m glad I did well at least with the sea food.’

Surprisingly, Haesik had the talent to be a leader. He was originally a sociable guy, not to mention his communication skills, and his temperament, which could be said to be a bit distracting, changed 180 degrees when he entered battle.

Although my flaw is that my field of view is somewhat narrow, I didn’t think it was a big problem as I thought that would be resolved with experience.

‘I guess I’ll have to order it from Yuseon later.’

But no matter what anyone says, it is Yoo Seon who has the greatest potential as a leader.

Although he is said to have been a scarecrow with no real power, he once sat in the position of emperor. Moreover, doesn’t she now have <Command -lv.3>? He could truly be said to be a prepared leader.

Right now, I’m still adjusting to modern times, so I haven’t given him the role of leader, but his eyes sparkle as he decides that one day I’ll treat him like a dog.

“Ugh!”

“huh? Mr. Yoo Seon. What’s wrong?”

“Oh, it’s nothing. “Suddenly I got chills so stop.”

The party’s growth rate is satisfactory.

As growth began to be visible, the team members who rode the bus and the team members who rode the bus became overflowing with motivation.

‘At this pace, I will soon be able to play a part in the Demon World.’

good night. Let’s use this momentum to clear out all SS-class dungeons across the country.

In any case, no one in the association tried the SS-level dungeon, so the dungeon was closed using the enormous amount of mana stones that appeared.

In this situation, when the government stepped forward and said that it would handle all SS-level dungeons, the association welcomed it with open arms, and support was flowing in from the government either knowingly or unknowingly.

Everything is going smoothly.

In addition, Tinia, Cu Chulainn, who disappeared as soon as the first SS-class dungeon was cleared, and Cheok Jun-gyeong, the strongest swordsman, are also present.

The demon world is invading Earth?

From now on, it’s the opposite. Jeong-do felt that the moment to end this terrible relationship was not far away.

“Okay, rest is over. Then we will proceed to the next wave.”

The short rest came to an end with Hae-sik’s shout, and the party proceeded through the dungeon in silence.

And I was able to successfully clear 8 SS-level dungeons that day. Needless to say, the world record was broken.

* * * * * *

A few days passed like that.

“Hmm. “It’s a little lacking.”

In the large room, Do-do sipped beer alone and muttered. The situation on Earth was much more stable than expected.

What was significant was that all the angel-type monsters disappeared at some point. As the powerful and most frequent angels disappeared, I felt much easier to breathe. Of course, it was the result of Jeongdo shattering the heavens.

“devildom.”

Now the most powerful enemy left is the Demon World. Although less common than in heaven, these ignorant bastards often come to Earth.

A few days before Jeong Do’s return from heaven, an SS-class dungeon break occurred on an island in Indonesia, and as a result, one island was completely devastated. Although SS-class users and armies around the world worked together to repel it, it caused astronomical damage.

‘They were demon bastards.’

After hearing the news, I secretly visited the island and was able to feel the strong energy of the demon world there. The level was similar to the commander of the 7th Corps of the Demon World whom I first faced in Japan.

‘You have to become stronger.’

This was a story that applied not only to himself but also to his teammates. They weren’t the type to plot like heaven, but they were crazy in another sense.

Blood, struggle and strong self-respect.

Demons who will do anything for battle. Of course, strong military force was essential to fight them.

The team members were growing day by day. Every day was a series of high levels and the moment of death. Of course, my stats piled up and my sense of survival improved day by day.

Although it was unofficial, it probably wouldn’t be that far behind compared to other SS classes.

‘Growth is smooth… ‘The technical part is disappointing.’

But not everything was perfect. The level of technical proficiency was not keeping up with the growing body. It was also a problem that I had experienced and am still experiencing.

‘I need someone to teach me the technology.’

What immediately came to mind was Cheok Jun-gyeong, but Jeong-do shook his head. Cheok Jun-kyung specializes in swordsmanship to a certain extent. Ryu Serin was okay, but he wasn’t a suitable teacher for the other two. And that goes for Cu Chulainn as well.

But to ask an SS-level person from another country… It didn’t really catch my eye. In that case, it was clear that it would be much better for Cheok Jun-kyung to teach, even if it was not a specialized field.

At a time when Jeong-do was contemplating what to do.

“Can I help you?”

Jeong-do’s thoughts were shattered by an uninvited guest. I was so startled that I looked in the direction the voice came from, and there was Black Winry smiling brightly.

“Voila. All-purpose cheat key. Winry Machina. Appears here! I couldn’t bear to see you in such pain, so I came. “I’m nice, right?”

“… … .”

What concept is this again?

Even though I didn’t say a word, I was already tired. Jeongdo frowned slightly without realizing it, and Winry raised her voice as if she was shocked by the sight.

“What is it? That expression. “I thought about it so much that I came!”

“I never asked you to come.”

“no. You did it. There was such an echo from deep within Jeong Do-nim’s heart! “I can feel it.”

“What kind of nonsense is that? Do you use the interest method?”

Did you load anything?

No, it wasn’t even a method of interest in the first place. Because he never imagined that she would come.

“Well, it’s true that I have concerns.”

“Look at that. how is it? Would you like to share your concerns with me? I’m sure I can help. “You’ve already received my help once, right?”

“… Hmm.”

In fact, the level of hostility towards Black Winry had decreased significantly. White Winry had assured her that she was acting for her own sake, although she still doubted its purpose.

Moreover, as she said, she had used the ability ‘History Change Rod’ that she had received to great effect once in heaven.

First, let’s listen to the story.

Jeong Do decided that he needed someone who could be a mentor to the party members. Winry seemed to calmly listen to what he said, then smiled and suggested a solution.

“I’m sure there’s no one on Earth right now who can teach them.”

“Then should we look for it in another universe?”

“That’s a way too, but… I’d recommend something else. “We have a product that is very suitable for you.”

“huh?”

Winry spoke like a salesperson and waved her hand in the air. Then pong! An object appeared out of thin air along with a sound.

“… This.”

“Is this something you’ve seen before? “The detailed performance is a little different, but it’s basically the same as that product.”

I’ve seen it before.

What Winry took out was a wooden doll similar in size to a human. It was the very thing Zhuge Liang used in the wireless world.

Winry smiled brightly and continued.

“If it is difficult to find a teacher, wouldn’t it be okay for Master Jeong to summon him himself? All you have to do is provide them with a temporary body.”

“… … .”

In the world of Wushu, Zhuge Liang used wooden dolls and magic to give Yushen a new body. Although he was temporary, I remember being surprised because he looked just like a real, living person.

And there was no way Winry couldn’t do what Zhuge Liang could do. Jeong-do reflexively stretched out his hand toward the wooden doll.

Swish.

Winry hid the doll behind her. It seemed like there was still an explanation left.

“Mr. Jeongdo. This isn’t free. I really want to give it away for free, but that would destroy the balance too much. Think about it. If you buy a lot of these dolls and load each doll with a character and give them a body… “You know what’s going to happen, right?”

“Tsk. I understand.”

A crazy group of people who find the Demon World cute will be born. Although I briefly clicked my tongue, I was convinced.

“So how much is it?”

“Calculating with the achievement points you currently have, you can purchase a total of three.”

“…is this going to last forever?”

“It can’t be. Use it two hours a day! Cooldown time: 22 hours! The effect disappears immediately once you leave the Earth. Ah, Mr. Jeongdo. Don’t wrinkle your face too much. I know what you’re thinking, but I hope you’ll be content with just calling on someone who can be your teacher. “If you try to eat it too raw, you will get sick.”

Phew. I can’t help it.

Still, it seems that it can be used when a monster attacks that Earth users cannot handle. I decided to be satisfied with that for now.

“I’ll buy all three.”

“This is an excellent choice.”

* * * * * *

And the next day.

Jeongdo called the entire Triple S guild battle team. The location is a guild-only training room in the basement of the guild house. It was a state-of-the-art facility made with various magical devices and mana stones.

“older brother. It’s a little late… uh?”

Hae-sik, who was the last to open the training room, let out a questioning voice. This was because there were two faces in the training center that Haesik did not know.

“uh. I’m here? If you come, say hello first. “Because they are temporary teachers who will teach you from today.”

“… teacher?”

At those words, Haesik looked around.

Jeong Do, Seoyoon, Serin, Cu Chulainn, Yoo Seon, and Cheok Jun-kyung. These were already familiar faces. Among them, Cú Chulainn and Yuseon were like-minded and had already had drinks together several times.

The problem is that there are two other people besides them… It’s a very strange combination. Everyone except himself and Jeong-do was looking at them with curious eyes.

One girl and one big guy.

It was a combination that could be called Beauty and the Beast. Jeong Do called Seo-yoon and had her say hello to the beauty.

“Now, this is the person who will be your teacher for two hours a day. “You probably have a lot of other things to learn that I can’t teach you.”

Nod.

Seoyoon quietly lowered her head, and the blonde beauty also smiled and lowered her head. She looked at him as if she was satisfied with the situation, and this time she called Hae-sik.

“And this is where Hae-sik becomes my teacher. He is a very wise and strong man, so you will have a lot to learn from him physically and mentally.”

“Ah yes. i look forward to!”

“Hmm. He’s a young man with a great body. you. Are you interested in Pankration? “What about philosophy?”

“yes? yes?”

“Haha. If you don’t know something, I can teach you. “Follow me.”

Sloppy.

The large man disappeared, dragging the nearly 2m long Haesik like a child. As the two groups disappeared into another room, Jeong-do this time looked at Cu Chulainn.

“Cu Chulainn.”

“ok? me too? “Is there anyone who can teach me?”

Cu Chulainn is a White top-level person. Of course, there are very few people in the entire universe who can teach him. Honestly, for a being like Cu Chulainn who has reached the extreme, it is much more helpful to fight a strong person like Cheok Jun-gyeong than a teacher.

but.

“I haven’t loaded it yet, but I probably will. And to load this person, Cu Chulainn’s help is essential.”

“… huh?”

Jeong Do approached Cu Chulainn holding a wooden doll in one hand. And he used <Void Lock> to view Cu Chulainn’s information.

“There is.”

One of his talents.

<Misfortune-lv.2>.

Jeongdo swallowed a laugh. How on earth does one’s talent have to be so high that one can become this strong even with that?

“As expected, you are unlucky.”

“Yeah, right? But why is it so unsettling?”

“What was it like when you received training as a child?”

“…Just something. It was so hard that I died. I was happy to see progress, but that devilish teacher… wait for a sec.”

“okay. “You were unhappy.”

“No, no, wait a minute!”

Thump.

Jeongdo placed his hand on Cu Chulainn’s shoulder. Then, while holding the wooden doll in one hand, he used the <Run Draw>.

Faaah!

Jeongdo has always borrowed and loaded Yuseon’s <Kangwoon-lv.2> when drawing. Thanks to this, he was able to select good people at random.

So what about the opposite?

If I borrow Cu Chulainn’s <Misfortune-lv.2> and load it, will I always get a normal result? Because the degree is also subject to <Misfortune-lv.2>?

Shook.

However, the color of the falling business card was white. Jeong Do smiled upon seeing that his own experiment had succeeded.

The white business card soaked into Jeong-do’s forehead and traveled down Jeong-do’s body, landing on the wooden doll. The appearance of the wooden doll changed in an instant.

“oh. Setanta. long time no see?”

“Calm down. men and horses!”

“With Master right in front of you, are you looking for another man first? “I’m disappointed.”

“Ugh! “Get away from me, you ghost!”

<You have succeeded in strengthening Scathach by +1.>

<2 Ex-class tickets will be provided as compensation.>

Yes.

There was no rule to select a weak person just because he or she was unlucky. A person who is so terrible that you would feel unhappy just by meeting him could be a very powerful person.

Each person’s screams rang out loudly, and the final training before heading to the demon world began.
