After all the fight was over, the shocking ending quickly spread through the cadets and teachers sitting in the auditorium.

“The first son of Chang-eun guild lost to a silver class cadet?”

“Even not by one, but two people in a row. Even the weapon was taken by one of them.”

"wasn’t it a mistake or in bad condition?"

“I heard that it was more powerful than usual, rather than bad.”

The first son of Chang-eun guild. Lee Byung-ho, who has one of the best skills in the gold class, was overwhelmingly defeated by the silver class, not even by one, but two.

The story quickly spread to the entire hunter industry beyond the Sungjin Academy, and it was so intense that Hwang Hwi-chan's topic faded.

“The cadet named Kim Jin-hyuk is great, but the cadet named Kang Yoo-sik is really not unusual…”

“He’s in first grade, but he’s already that level…”

“I heard that he belongs to Nam Gung-ryun's first group. In fact, it is safe to say that he is at the level of the diamond class…”

Even if other cadets suffered all kinds of hardships for three years, it’s hard to tell the industry a single letter of their name, but they spread the name stone characters widely after one fight.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, it was a tremendous record, and naturally, interest in the two began to increase.

“Huh…”

And it was the same with Chang-eun Guild's guild leader, Lee byung-ho's grandfather, Lee Jung-ryong.

Kwaaang!

On the TV screen, Lee byung-ho rushed in with lightning strewn, but soon he was caught by the spear and struck with a sword, and rolled over the ground.

The gap is overwhelming enough to not close the battle. Lee Jung-ryong laughed a little when he saw his grandson roll around.

When it comes to the skill itself, there may be some better cadets in the diamond class.

However, what Lee Jung-ryong admired was the time it took to start growing and climb there. And above all, it was the mind trick hidden behind the fight.

‘There was no need to fight, and even if it did, it could defeat easier. Nevertheless, having chosen a tricky method of taking away weapons and subduing them….’

To break Lee Byung-ho's strong pride. Lee Jung-ryong recognized the trick and twisted his mouth.

‘You're a good child.'

Against the background of Chang-eun, the decisiveness points out exactly what Lee byung-ho needs. An insight into the weaknesses of skill.

He may be the same cadet, but in the eyes of Lee Jeong-ryong, there was no one suitable for teaching Lee Byung-ho as Kang Yoo-sik.

‘It could be a good opportunity.'

Lee Byung-ho, who had excellent natural talent, but did not want to admit his shortcomings. Maybe that attitude can be corrected through Kang Yoo-sik.

Realizing that it was an opportunity he could never miss, Lee Jung-ryong called Lee Byung-ho to tell him to make an appointment with Kang Yoo-sik.

"Well…?”

Normally, he would answer before the beep sounds, but for some reason, he didn’t answer the phone.

Lee Jung-ryong saw that he could not be contacted and smiled bitterly as he looked at his cell phone.

‘It looks like he’s downcasted a lot.’

He thinks it would be better to contact him after the aftermath of the fight. Lee Jung-ryong, who thought so, hung up the phone.

* * *

"Ah…!”

The noisy ringing sound went off, and Lee Byung-ho, who couldn't answer his grandfather's phone, immediately stared with dissatisfied eyes.

Kang Yoo-sik stared at it while sitting on the sofa.

“Hey, raise your hand straight.”

He stabbed Lee byung-ho's side with his feet, where his arm was bent.

“Ugh…!”

As he kicked, Lee Byung-ho's arms stretched straight toward the sky, and his knees were evenly attached to straighten his posture.

A typical punishment position, kneeling on the floor and raising both arms. He is doing the posture he did when he was in elementary school in front of Kang Yoo-sik.

“There are still 10 minutes left.”

"I know…”

"What?"

“…sir."

Lee Byung-ho's face, who said honorifics to Kang Yoo-sik, turned red and he turned his head down.

In the fight, He was defeated to the point that I hate to think of it, and now he was forced to speak in honorific in this shameful posture.

It was indescribable humiliation to Lee Byung-ho, who was full of pride.

‘I should have done it publicly at the Dome Fight Hall.’

Kang Yoo-sik, who felt a little regretful that he had avoided the scene because of the crowds, looked at his side.

“Snoooore…”

Kim Jin-hyuk is sleeping while leaning on the sofa.

The mental fatigue was so great that he came to Lee Byung-ho's accommodation and knocked out right away right after he sat on the sofa.

Kang Yoo-sik looked at him and Lee Byung-ho alternately.

‘It would have been easy if he was simple like this guy.' When Kang Yoo-sik was thinking about how to handle Lee Byung-ho.

"You know…sir."

Lee Byung-ho, who glanced at the clock, opened his mouth.

“The time is up…sir."

Kang Yoo-sik nodded his head with his arms folded at Lee Byung-ho's awkward honorific talking.

"stand up."

Lee Byung-ho quickly stood up as Kang Yoo-sik said, and he recovered a little bit of his pride from it.

Kang Yoo-sik was aghasted by his shamelessness and calmly opened his mouth.

“Tell me what you did wrong.”

“…What?"

“I said, Tell me what you did wrong.”

At Kang Yoo-sik's question, Lee Byung-ho's face quickly turned red. Asking about wrong like to a child!

He could bear kneeling and raising hands, but his pride doesn't allow this. The moment Lee byung-ho protest.

"will you not?"

“I will, I will.”

He opened his mouth, fluttering at the appearance of Kang Yoo-sik trying to stand up.

“Failure to admit defeat…I kept pushing it.”

“The expression is mild.”

“…Cowardly, I did not admit defeat and forced myself ugly. I apologize for it."

Lee Byung-ho's face turned red again. Kang Yoo-sik nodded and asked at the figure of his shame.

“Are you going to do it again?”

"never…I won't.”

"Well. Good."

“Then it’s about the contract now…Remember what you promised me in advance?”

"Yes…”

“Unconditional contract with my newly created one. Are you keeping your promise?”

“…?”

He made a blank expression at Kang Yoo-sik's talk.

Even if it is possible to write a new contract, is it an unconditional contract? The moment Lee Byung-ho tried to say something about this unreasonable story.

[On the contrary, if I win, write a new contract and make a contract. You both have no objection?]

[okay.]

Kang Yoo-sik played the recorded voice as if he had been waiting, and Lee byung-ho looked confused when he heard it.

“I told you clearly. You are going to sign a contract with a new contract.”

“Well, that could be a negotiation…”

“If so, I would have said a negotiation. Anyway, after the midterm exam, I will make the contract and find you, so keep it ready by then.”

"then…”

Whatever contract he brings, he has no choice but to sign it.

Lee byung-ho's face, who understood the situation, turned pale, and Kang Yoo-sik gave a satisfactory expression to this appearance that seemed scared.

In fact, this condition can never be made if the guild nitpicks about it. Nevertheless, it was not a special reason why Kang Yoo-sik said this.

‘Behave yourself'

If it was before, it would be a presumptuous act of the cadet, but he will understand well because he has seen my abilities properly with this battle.

‘And if I season more here… .’

Kang Yoo-sik, who made a plan in his head, immediately opened his mouth as he looked at Lee byung-ho, who was stunned.

“By the way, do you know why you lost today?”

Although it was a sudden change in topic, Lee Byung-ho quickly came to his senses because it was a story he had been curious about after losing at the fight.

And when he saw that Kang Yoo-sik was in the mood for something to teach, he quickly shared his thoughts.

“Because I can’t control my body properly…?”

It seems that the cause is well understood because it was four times. Kang Yoo-sik nodded to the answer.

"right. Reflexes are inefficient and muscle strengthened by the Thunderer. These two things don’t get along together and that’s why it happened”

"I knew it…”

“Then what is the solution?”

Lee Byung-ho pondered for a while to Kang Yoo-sik's question, and he immediately thought of one thing and answered.

“Training agility?”

As the agility increases, the reflexes increase, so it is not just the wrong answer. But Kang Yoo-sik shook his head.

“It's not entirely wrong, but it's that it leaves your Thunderer immature. You're running off the side road.”

In fact, before returning, Lee Byung-ho felt a great lack of every time he fought a strong enemy and belatedly began improving his Thunderer.

However, at that time, he was too accustomed to the combat method that depended on agility stats, so it could not be easily fixed, and he said that the bad habit remained until now.

‘But from now on, it will be different.'

Before returning, teaching improvement method Lee Byung-ho found, making his skills improve, and securing a contract with debt and sincerity.

That was the plan that Yoo-sik Kang came up with.

“Think about applying Thunderer. To use a different method than usual.”

“Hmm…”

Lee Byung-ho frowned to see if he could easily come up with a method, and there was no sign of an end to his worries.

Kang Yoo-sik reached out before Lee Byung-ho really comes up with something.

‘Lightning chain.'

Patus-tsu-tsu.

A chain made of lightning gushed out over his hand, and Lee Byung-ho looked surprised at the sudden use of his skill.

In that gaze, Kang Yoo-sik wrapped a chain of lightning around his body, releasing magic in all directions.

Pa-ji-ji-jik.

Then, a small lightning bolt began to erupt out of the lightning chain, and it was maintained as much as the supplied spell power, and the surrounding 20cm of Kang Yoo-sik was filled with lightning.

"Ah…”

The moment I saw the “realm” made of that lightning. Lee byung-ho exclaimed without even knowing.

He immediately understood what Kang Yoo-sik wanted to say to him.

“It's not just about making lightning in your body, you're using it flexibly. Do you know what I mean?”

"Yes…”

Lee Byung-ho nodded with a blank expression, and Kang Yoo-sik dissolved the lightning chain and woke up Kim Jin-hyuk.

"Let’s go."

“Oh, yes. okay…”

Kim Jin-hyuk, who woke up, staggered and followed, and Kang Yoo-sik got on the elevator.

And the moment the door was about to close.

Thump thump!

Lee byung-ho, protruding from the corridor, ran towards the emergency exit at a terrifying speed, and when he came down to the entrance, he saw a back figure running to the building with a personal training room.

Even though I only solved a little, he was already excited. Probably the moment he gains achievements from this advice, he will naturally incur debts.

Kang Yoo-sik laughed and muttered at the appearance that he understood well by himself and grew steadily.

“Anyway, geniuses…”

* * *

Hwang Hwi-chan's scandal and Lee byung-ho's defeat. And Seong-jin calmed down after the story that someone won more than 50 million won in the fight money betting.

Now, the exam period is really short. For the midterm exam in early May, all the cadets went into preparation for the exam.

Kang Yoo-sik also started preparing for the test according to the atmosphere, and the written test gives him pain a bit.

‘what. Hasn't this been corrected yet? What the hell…’

The knowledge that has not yet been proven or that remains in error.

Because he couldn't write them down rashly, Kang Yoo-sik had to memorize the wrong answer instead of the one he knew, and that made it more confusing.

Kang Yoo-sik encountered an unexpected situation but he seriously prepared for the exam, and in the blink of an eye, time passed and it became the day of the exam.

“Woo…”

Kang Yoo-sik, who fell asleep early yesterday, got up before the wake-up bell rang and took a light breath and relaxed.

There is no problem in physical condition, and preparation is perfect. Kang Yoo-sik, who once again recalled that if he did what he had done, the highest rank was confirmed. He looked at the test schedule posted on the wall.

「May 3rd-Written exam

May 4- Battle Test against Evil

May 5- Battle Test against Monster」

total of 3 days of the midterm.

The first day began today.
