#9

9. If you want to live, get on the rope well (1)

The next morning, come out to the square.

silence. The air was chilly.

There was no one in the square.

‘Where did you go?’

I clicked my tongue. After confirming that Jenna had gone into the house, she followed her, but it was not there. I was thinking of giving up the sofa.

no bed

It’s good.

The training camp is open. If he had moved his head for the past week, now it was time to move his body. I entered the gates of the training center.

[Training Center Lv.1]

The area is 50 pyeong.

There are scarecrows made of straw all over the place. The display stand in the corner contained weapons for practice, such as wooden swords, wooden spears, and shields. Other than that, it was empty, but it was only a level 1 training center. Even this much, it was a sense.

I started running along the walls of the training camp.

Inhale lightly twice, exhale deeply once.

It was a simple technique learned in the army canter. I ran like that for 10 minutes.

Running at a slow pace, I didn’t feel tight in my calves or out of breath.

I opened the status window.

[Han Israt(★) Lv. 5 (Exp 44/50)]

[Class: Novice]

[Strength: 15/15]

[Intelligence: 15/15]

[Health: 15/15]

[Agility: 15/15]

[Possessed Skill: None]

That’s miserable.

I frowned. The growth rate per level is only 4. Why does intelligence rise again? It’s a useless stat for a physical type.

But even so, it is clear that it is superior to my body on Earth. After being discharged from the military, I didn’t even pay attention to exercise, and I always rode a car, so I was often out of breath when I climbed just a few stairs.

I was the specimen of modern people who lack exercise.

But now it felt like I had returned to my days in the army.

To the time when I was desperate to get a special warrior.

‘This world has different laws from Earth.’

The ramen in the display case and the orange juice in the refrigerator will be filled the next day no matter how much you eat and drink, and after thinking about what you want, open the drawer or closet and the item will appear. Of course, there is no such thing as K-2 or AK-47.

All I could get was clothes, pencils, and household items like toilet paper.

After running for 30 minutes, my body warmed up to a good condition.

I took a deep breath and started doing push-ups.

I understand now.

There are a few heroes who are often of the same rank but have different fighting abilities than others.

one thing they have in common.

don’t neglect training

In the beginning, I didn’t know. Stats and levels don’t go up just because you train, so why don’t you come out of the training center like that. Still, it was admirable that they put effort into the subject, a game character, so they continued to upgrade the facilities.

Now that I think about it, I don’t think they were game characters.

In any case, their efforts bore fruit, and the higher the level, the higher the grade, the more they gradually stood out.

I defined this as ‘constitution’.

Just as a strong foundation is needed to build a tall building, it is to lay the foundation.

1-star heroes start with a base stat of 10.

Strength is 10, intelligence is 10, stamina is 10, and agility is 10.

Whether you are a hearty lady or a grandfather who works today, your physical abilities will be the same. But the results are different.

‘First mental.’

The Master doesn’t even pay attention to the heroes who often fall into fear or panic.

The power to remain calm in any situation and look for the possibility of victory.

That’s why the ‘combat logic’ that makes this possible is recognized as an S-class passive.

‘Technology second.’

The second condition for distinguishing gemstones is technology.

Some heroes are good at swords and some are good at spears. The talent for weapon skills is different for each hero. High-ranking heroes are usually summoned with their talents in bloom, and low-ranking heroes are often hidden and must be found by the master.

I don’t know my skills yet. There will be many opportunities to find out. I decided not to fret.

‘Third body.’

that’s what i’m doing now

Work that gives direction and momentum to growth.

mental.

technology.

flesh.

When these three elements come together, I will have the competitiveness to compete with the 5 stars.

I know because I’ve been dealing with

Those guys are real monsters.

We’re working out so hard,

“what are you doing?”

A familiar voice was heard.

I stopped doing push-ups and stood up. As I looked at the entrance to her training center, Jenna, her red hair braided back, was looking at me.

I said.

“I train to catch monsters. Why?”

“Why are you talking so aggressively? I tried to find it.”

Jenna entered the training center grumbling. She then fiddled with her neck bow in an old barrel.

“I’ve been thinking all night. What to do next. You can’t get out of here right?”

I didn’t answer.

Jenna took out her wooden bow and pulled the bowstring.

“Cuddle me too. I’ll listen carefully.”

“What do you wear?”

“I know, but I reply. Well, I’m good at shooting arrows. I won’t bother you. My father was a hunter, so it was my hobby to shoot arrows in my free time.”

Jenna lifted a wooden arrow from the barrel and fired it quickly. The arrow pierced the scarecrow 10m away with a shallow bang sound.

“I don’t think the situation will change even if I cry and drag on. Brother, do you know how to survive?”

“Is yesterday your first real fight?”

“Of course. I lived only at home.”

“How well do you shoot the bow?”

“It’s okay.”

Jenna fired her bow once more.

The same scarecrow. It was a hit.

‘Status window.’

[Zena Shirai (★) Lv. 2 (Exp 5/20)]

[Class: Novice]

[Strength: 11/11]

[Intelligence: 10/10]

[Health: 11/11]

[Agility: 12/12]

[Possessed Skill: Lesser Archery (Lv.1)]

Growth is low at 4, but instead of intelligence, agility has risen by 2 points. In addition, he has a precedent skill for 1-star subjects.

Of the three who escaped, he was the only one who returned.

It was the first real fight, so although it took fear, it didn’t go into panic, and I shot and killed a goblin. He wasn’t obsessed with dead people, and he had a clear goal of what to do next.

‘It’s a gemstone.’

I remembered yesterday’s battle. I gave them weapons, and the three of them ran away. What if the next ones are the same ass? Can I handle the enemies alone?

Shouldn’t we live before the competition?

I answered.

“Okay. I’ll help you.”

“Please take care of me, brother.”

Jenna smiled and held out her hand.

I took that hand.

[‘Jenna(★)’ feels favor with ‘Han(★)’.]

[A closeness bonus has been created.]

[Tips/Ability bonuses are given when forming a party with heroes who are close to each other. Make good use of it.]

“Because my father said, if you want to live, get on the rope well.”

“I see.”

“Isn’t he a wonderful father?”

I explained the basic rules for picking me up to Jenna.

That there is a Master who gives us orders. That we have to subjugate enemies or carry out missions according to that order. The number of floors increases every time you complete a mission, and when you reach the 100th floor, you can probably be freed.

“You mean you have to fight all the time with monsters?”

“That’s why I’m training. Because I need to develop strength.”

There are many ways to become stronger besides training, but most of them are unopened contents now that the number of floors reached is low. At this point, all I could do was train.

“Should it be just the two of us fighting?”

I also explained the summons. The Master summons humans from another world with gems and gold. That we came to this world caught up in that summon.

In the future, people will be constantly summoned, and we have to compete with them and sometimes cooperate with them to fulfill our mission.

I hid the identity of this world and myself.

“That’s all I can explain. Got it?”

“Yes, I understand.”

Jenna nodded. His face wasn’t good, but he didn’t show it openly. She is calming down.

There was no whining or childishness that a child would see.

He accepts the situation calmly.

‘It’ll be useful enough.’

“Are we a series of births?”

“Serial birth?”

“When I die, my brother dies, and when my brother dies, I die too.”

That’s not it.

Synthesis was not explained.

“Anyway, the Master will be back soon, and then the battle begins. Until then, do some training. It’s better than being lost.”

“yep!”

Jenna, who saluted with a loud movement, lifted the wooden bow.

Training started again. There was nothing special about training, just physical training or swinging a sword at a scarecrow and shooting arrows.

But neither I nor Jenna were playful.

Lives depended on it.

after a day of training.

The reason for not finding Jenna at the dorm is also revealed.

When I opened the door of the dorm, a modern house appeared, and when Jenna opened the door, it was the inside of a small tree house. I called Isel and asked, and she said:

[Are you dissatisfied? I’d be grateful if you didn’t end up in a barn!]

There was no dissatisfaction with life, so neither I nor Zena argued. The place seemed to change depending on who opened the door.

That’s how I started training and the third day.

[Welcome to Pick Me Up!]

I stopped the hand that was swinging the wooden sword.

The straw straw scarecrow was in tatters.

‘Status window.’

[Class: Novice]

[Strength: 15/15]

[Intelligence: 15/15]

[Health: 15/15]

[Agility: 15/15]

[Possessed Skills: Lesser Swordsmanship (Lv.1), Lesser Shields (Lv.1)]

Two skills were obtained. It is a low-level swordsmanship and a low-level shield skill, which apply corrections to the sword and shield, respectively. Jenna’s low-level archery has risen to level 2.

I did as much as I could.

“Get ready. The Master is here.”

“Already?”

“What? It’s been three days already.”

We returned our weapons and went out to the square.

Equipment from the training center could not be taken outside.

[Loading has finished.]

[TOUCH ! (selection)]

<Awesome event for new masters!>

<Write a review and get a star rating!>

<I am the strategy king! To the official cafe… … .>

The announcement was skipped and the master entered the main screen.

I calculated the time multiplier of the earth and waiting room. If the master accesses this place every day, a day on earth is three days here.

The door to the summons opened.

“Summons!”

“Yes, it comes.”

The maximum number of people in a party is five.

I will draw three times.

[Summon a Hero!]

[Summon a hero with gold or gems. Pick the infinite heroes summoned by Moebius Summon!]

[Master, start summoning. I’m looking forward to what kind of hero will come out!]

[Tack, durururu.]

[Follow me!]

[Common!]

[Master ‘Amkena’ has learned the hero ‘Aaron (★)’!]

[Common!]

[Master ‘Amkena’ has learned the hero ‘Toby(★)’!]

[Common!]

[Master ‘Amkena’ has learned the hero ‘Yelsons (★)’!]

Is it 1 adult?

A faint light leaked from inside the summoning station.

After a while, three men walked out with puzzled faces.

“Where are you?”

“That’s right.”

“Misters! Get ready to fight. I’ll teach you when it’s over safely!”

“Ready to fight? What are you? Answer me!”

[Form a party.]

[Drag and drop heroes!]

[‘Aaron (★)’ joins ‘Party 1’!]

[‘Toby(★)’ joins ‘Party 1’!]

[‘Yelson’s (★)’ joins ‘Party 1’!]

[Open, the opening of time and space!]

rattle.

The front door opened.

At the same time, the door to the armory opened.

It is much faster than the previous car.

“Jenna, raise your weapon before it’s too late!”

“yes!”
