Seo Woo Jin -3-
“What!”
The representative shouted in rage.
It looks like fire is being breathed out of the mouth.
“You call that talking now!”
What else is nonsense?
It is not that I am asking for a vision that is only passed down to the head of the family and his immediate lineage, nor is it that I am asking for martial arts that are open to the lower levels, elders, and collateral lines.
Bankruptcy prosecution is only an intermediate level prosecution.
Currently, even a deputy chief of the Jegeommun, which has transformed into a private military company, can learn it.
This is enough to negotiate.
I said without blinking an eye.
“I said it was a success bonus, not an execution bonus. Is that something to be so angry about?”
“No, this guy?”
“This isn’t the Joseon Dynasty, and you can learn martial arts like bankruptcy law at a university or a superhuman academy. I’m sure you’ve tried everything you can think of, but you’re trying to make something that you’ve failed at work. I think you can ask for this much.”
“Ahem!”
The representative’s face distorts involuntarily.
The deputy representative, who had been listening carefully, stared at me intently.
“Does that mean that we can definitely cure Jinwoo?”
“I guarantee it.”
“If we fail, Lee and I will be really angry. Are you okay with that?”
The deputy representative slowly builds up his momentum.
The magic wave of a level 6 superhuman, combined with the power of life, stabbed me with a tingling sensation.
The hairs all over my body stand on end and the back of my neck becomes stiff.
My mouth was parched, but I smiled broadly.
“Of course. Would you have mentioned bankruptcy prosecution without that kind of determination?”
I grumbled a little inside.
What’s the use of vision in the information age?
Well, it’s an intermediate swordsmanship, but if you learn the bankruptcy swordsmanship properly, you can easily advance to level 4 or 5.
To get into university, you need connections, and to study at a private academy, you need a lot of money.
For me, a beggar at level 1, bankruptcy law is the most appropriate.
‘I’ll learn the three great swordsmanship techniques later.’
The method of self-examination? The method of self-examination?
Even if given, I won’t take it.
The representative said as if he was not pleased.
“Very well. I will put the bankruptcy law on top of the nectar as a success fee. If you wish, I will personally guide you.”
“I don’t even want to go that far. Just give me the memory chip.”
“Okay, but you have to use the memory chip in front of me.”
“Of course.”
“Whoa······”
Chief Choi, who had been holding his breath until now, let out a short sigh.
I wondered if I was being too greedy, but I felt relieved when the CEO couple gave their approval.
“Is there anything else you need?”
“I need 200 bottles of magic concentration and intermediate magic potions.”
“That much?”
“This is not something I intend to use, it is something I will consume. If there is any left, I will return it to you.”
“Are you trying to induce forced awakening through a surge of magical power? That won’t do. Is that because you don’t know what happens to superhumans who are forcibly awakened?”
“I’ll drink it. Not you, Woojin.”
“hmm······”
The representative couple looks at them with suspicious eyes.
I repeat, I’m only level 1.
Of course, the total magical power is extremely small. Even if you drink the lowest level magical power potion, it will be half full, and if you drink just one sip of a medium level magical power potion, it will be full.
“And the magic concentration is to be installed in a secret training room, and there is no need to monitor it with CCTV or magic detectors. I want Woojin and I to do it alone.”
“That’s about it······ You can definitely succeed, right?”
“I know that my life is precious. If I were planning to cheat and run away, would I ask for a secret room?”
“Yeah, that’s good. Is there anything else you need?”
“Lastly, I have something to say to Mr. Woojin.”
“Me?”
Seo Woo-jin, who had been sitting blankly, is startled.
Why does this guy look so stupid?
Is this the sword of the evil god?
“I’ll tell you in advance, it’s definitely not an easy task. I’ll try to reduce Woojin’s burden as much as possible, but in any case, the work can only proceed if you take off your gloves.”
I have to take off my gloves······
Seo Woo-jin’s eyes wavered at those words.
of course.
Because the burning pain caused by fever is the most intense and excruciating of all pains a human can experience.
I don’t want to experience it for even a single minute or second.
Seo Woo-jin tightly closed his eyes.
“Ha, I will do it.”

“Are you okay?”
“Rather than living like this for the rest of my life, I’d rather just get sick for a little while. I won’t be able to practice martial arts, and I won’t be able to leave the house properly… But you absolutely, absolutely must succeed, right?”
“I promise you this much. Mr. Woojin will be reborn today.”
Seo Woo-jin glanced at the black flames floating next to me.
Then he nods, biting his lower lip.
A very heated atmosphere.
Even a bull’s horn must be pulled out in one go. I immediately got up from my seat.
“Let’s start right now.”
“Right, right now?”
“Ahem?”
“That’s fine for me and Mr. Woojin. Sir? Do you happen to have a secret training ground with a concentrated magic power? If you just prepare a magic potion, we can start right away.”
It is a martial arts school with a long and storied tradition in Korea.
There’s no way there wouldn’t be a secret training ground or magic potion in a place like that.
The representative spoke with a mysterious expression, as if he was amazed and dumbfounded.
“Of course. Are you sure it’s okay to start now?”
“If you waste time trying to prepare yourself mentally, you’ll only end up more stressed, Woojin.”
“Oh, teacher, but······”
Seo Woo-jin called me teacher out of surprise.
The deputy representative took one look at Seo Woo-jin and stood up to follow him.
“I like your execution, Superman. Of course. You have to swing your sword when you have momentum. Since you have both the magic concentration and magic potion, let’s get started right away.”
“mother!”
“Mom believes in our son. Son? This is the chance to get it all out. How long are you going to live like this? If you want to train in martial arts, take classes at work, and date, you won’t have time. You won’t have time.”
Seo Woo-jin clearly wanted to postpone it for a few days.
But he couldn’t beat his own mother.
I was almost caught and ended up in a secret training room in the basement of a house.
A fairly spacious space.
Magic lights twinkled on the ceiling, and magic circles were engraved on the walls, ceiling, and floor.
That familiar pattern.
I stuck out my tongue inwardly.
It was a three-dimensional magical power concentration. A flat magical power concentration alone would be sufficient, but it was dozens of times more expensive and only a few times more effective.
Boom! Boom!
The representative personally brought a plastic box and placed it on the floor.
It looked like a box for soju bottles, but inside it was filled with glass bottles with blue liquid sloshing around.
“This is an intermediate magic potion. Is this enough?”
“That’s enough.”
“Please take good care of me.”
The representative left after saying just those words.
The deputy took my hand and spoke in an earnest tone.
“Superman. Our Woojin is such a poor child. He was forcibly baptized by a saint 10 years ago, and he can’t go to school or make friends. It breaks my heart to see him just playing games at home. Now, the only person I can trust is you, Superman. Please make our Woojin healthy. Then I’ll give you nectar, bankruptcy law, or anything else.”
“Don’t worry. I will definitely make it a success.”
“I will only trust you, Superman. Woojin? You must listen to Superman and endure even when things are difficult. Got it?”
“all right.”
The deputy representative consoled Seo Woo-jin once and then left the training ground.
There was a clicking sound as the door lock locked, the magic lock activated, and the padlock was put in place.
Then Seo Woo-jin started to tremble in earnest.
A face that had been pretending to be calm until now.
A deep fear spread across both eyes.
“I, teacher.”
“yes?”
“I’m not really drinking that, am I?”
Eyes fixed on a magic potion.
I knew the inside story.
I nodded vigorously.
“As I told you before, I will drink the potion.”
“Teachers didn’t do that in the past······”
“I see. You tied it up and put fluid in it, right?”
Both magic potions and life potions are much more effective and efficient when administered intravenously than orally.
“Yes. I need to awaken my magic power······”
“That won’t do.”
The most classic way.
There is a limit to the amount of divine heat that can be applied to a level 0 character who has not even reached level 1, and if magical power is supplied without limit, there will inevitably come a point where the magical power supplied will exceed the magical power burning from the divine heat.
If you feel that magical power through your mind that is being forcibly awakened, and start to counter the fever by operating it according to the magical power operation method you have learned in advance, you are halfway done.
After taking nectar, your body will evolve to become a superhuman and you will naturally overcome fever.
The problem is that the target was not Kim Cheol-su, who lives in a back alley, but Seo Woo-jin.
Seo Woo-jin was born with a bee veil and received gifted education when he was just starting to walk. Even though he was still young and had not yet acquired magical powers, the foundation had been laid and a great deal of magical power was dormant within his body.
Naturally, the new island will become stronger on a different level.
“What else have you done besides that?”
“They tied my body up and inserted electrodes into my nervous system to stimulate my magical powers. A magician came and put me to sleep and tried to force my body to awaken.”
“Oh my, how uncivilized.”
These are all ways to get cursed at.
So it failed.
In fact, the characters in the game have limitations.
This would be best if you’re not like me and have memorized all the in-game and out-of-game settings and the conditions for acquiring all the traits in the game.
“Anyway, let’s get started. Mr. Woojin, just do whatever I say.”
“Uh······What should I do?”
“I have a lot to do right now, so just sit back and watch. You can even take a nap. Oh, but there’s one thing to keep in mind.”
“What is it?”
“You must never tell anyone what you see from now on. Even if the CEO or Vice-CEO asks you, you mustn’t tell anyone. Got it?”
“If you want to keep it a secret, I can keep it a secret, but why?”
“It’s my secret. It’s a promise between man and man. Can you keep a secret?”
I strained my eyes and looked straight at Seo Woojin.
Seo Woo-jin is a character who, according to the game’s settings, keeps his word even if a knife is put to his neck. Since that’s the setting, you can trust him.
Seo Woo-jin looked at me with slightly shaking eyes.
He nodded his head immediately.
“I have to trust the person who will cure me. Strangely, I trust you, teacher.”
Well, I’m sure of that.
Are you like other people who say, “If it doesn’t work out, then don’t worry about it, but if it does, then fine” because you’re yelling because you know it’ll work out 100%?
I brought the box of magic potions and laid them out roughly next to me.
“Then let’s begin.”
Take a deep breath.
Also, change the characteristics.
[Magic Shield][Vitality][Deep Breath]
[Magic Recovery][Magic Absorption][Magic Heart]
I removed the sacred resistance and equipped only the magic recovery related characteristics other than the magic defense shield.
Woohoo!
The martial arts field’s magical power concentration is activated, pouring magical power into me.
The amount of magic power recovered thanks to the synergy effect with my characteristics is so great that even I am scared.
Instead, the divine resistance was gone, and the divine fever burned like wildfire.
Of course, it cannot penetrate the shield.
Because my magic power is supplied to the magic defense barrier before the new heat.
“Hoooo.”
It can’t stop here.
I concentrated my mind as much as possible on the magic shield.
A magical shield that expands without stopping.
It expands. It grows. It stretches out.
Originally it barely covered my body, but now it has expanded beyond that. Almost twice as much, and up to eight times as much in volume.
Crackle! Crackle!
Naturally, the density and strength are bound to decrease.
The black flames rushed in, rushing in like a hawk, biting at my defenses. A hole was easily made and the black flames began to devour my body.
“Eww!”
A pain that is absolutely unbearable.
It’s a world of difference from when there was no shield, but it’s still painful.
It feels like you’re being stabbed with a hot iron, even if you can’t burn your body.
I groaned on my own and my body shook from side to side.
Seo Woo-jin opened his eyes wide.
“Sir?”
Ignore it.
Instead, it further increases the defensive barrier.
To the limit of the magic shield.
The pain intensified and a sense of emptiness set in. It was a sign that even the magical power that had been supplied so ignorantly was about to be cut off. As soon as I realized that, I took the magical power potion.
Mulberry!
Pouring the magic potion into your mouth in one gulp.
Magic power was rising steadily. My body was filled with energy and my magic defense barrier became clear. However, it was only for a moment, and I had to pour the magic potion again.
The magic potion is added. I drink it down like a delicious drink. Each time, the magic barrier gets stronger and weaker, and the black flames rage and tear my nervous system apart.
“Seo, teacher. If that’s the case······”
I know, me too.
It’s not good to drink magic potions like this in a short period of time.
Actually, that’s exactly what I was aiming for.
How many bottles did I drink?
At some point, the magic potion tasted as sweet as honey, and a refreshing feeling spread throughout my body, like when I drink a carbonated beverage.
When I opened my eyes and checked, there were blue veins all over the back of my hand.
[Drug dependence]
A trait that slightly increases the usual damage taken and amount of magic power consumed, but increases the effect of the drug by a certain amount.
But this is not the trait I want.
Just something I picked up along the way.
Instead of vitality, I equipped drug dependence. Feeling that my magical power supply had become smoother, I continued to focus on the magical defense shield and expand its range.
That’s when I destroyed 100 bottles of magic potion.
The point at which [Drug Dependency] evolves into [Drug Addiction] due to drinking so much magic potion.
Finally, the surface of the magic barrier began to sparkle and take on a rainbow sheen.
I rolled my eyes when I saw that.
‘Now is the time!’
I told you once.
A magic shield is something that all defensive warriors must have.
The answer was here.
A magical shield with a rainbow sheen.
I looked at it and shouted inwardly, concentrating.
‘Grow up!’
The magic shield evolves into one of three forms.
Armor, shield, area.
The one I chose was that area.
The magic shield expands rapidly, containing my will.
A magical shield that originally only covered an area about 1 meter away from me.
It grows rapidly and becomes more than twice as wide.
As a result, it grew to a diameter of 5 meters and bubbled like a soap bubble.
[Area Defense Shield]
A shield that is incomparably stronger than the original magic shield.
The black flames that had been tormenting me until now died down in an instant.
No, it gets lost.
The fever hadn’t completely disappeared. It was still lurking in my body.
However, it is also true that if you drink nectar in this state, you will completely disappear.
“Wow······”
Seo Woo-jin looks at me with eyes full of respect.
It seems like he was impressed by seeing the fever disappear right before his eyes.
“Are you done?”
No way.
It’s just starting now.
Both you and I have nothing left to do but suffer.
