Chapter 17 – Personal Growth
Awakening center.
This is a place where you can check the ability of the hunter who has the characteristic, experiment with the characteristic, find out how this characteristic should develop, and which hunter agency can help you.
Hunters would regularly visit the Awakening Center to report their progress and check if there were any unusual issues.
A simple test that took place in the second year of high school. It was a nationally accredited institution that became its main body.
“Let’s go to the Awakening Center and examine the characteristics. After registering as an Awakener this time, I officially entered the guild…”
Excited for some reason, Lee Yu-na drew a plan for the future through the awakening test.
No, but Actually, I’m not an all-master.
An ‘All Master’ trait that was made hastily to cover up the original trait ‘Milk’.
Of course, there was no way that such fictional characteristics would work in the Awakening Center.
[The Standard of Qigong] Read the book and learn qigong,
[Understanding Kendo] Reading books and mastering swordsmanship,
Read [Introduction to Magic] And learn the basics of magic.
What kind of genius am I, that kind of thing is possible.
However, Lee Yu-na must have believed my words completely, and devised a way to use the ‘All Master’ trait more actively.
I started searching for which guild to join and which senior hunters had similar characteristics, and how to maximize my abilities.
Maybe this is the natural way for her.
As soon as she was awakened in her second year of high school, she was registered as a formal hunter, joined the Hunter Association, graduated early, and immediately entered the real world.
As a woman who remembers her own growth process, the most important thing was to make the best choice in which direction to develop.
But the important thing is that I was a shepherd boy.
Being an ‘All Master’ is not my specialty.
You should be able to pretend to be a true All-Master by stealing other people’s skills through [Suyu], But now [Suyu] Only did it for Lee Yoo-na and the Arachnes, so there were few skills.
And above all, the target of breastfeeding was limited.
As long as I didn’t suddenly go crazy and catch any passing female hunter and suckle her milk, there was no explosive skill increase.
It was all about applying the [Milk] Skill to monsters in cracks or fields without the knowledge of other hunters. And this is also the first time.
In many ways, the Awakening Center was a premature story.
“Yuna, calm down.”
“Yes?”
I stopped Lee Yoo-na, who was drawing future plans with more heart than I did.
“It hasn’t been long since my characteristics have been manifested yet. Now is the time to look back on myself and find out why the traits were manifested, what skills and how much I can learn. The Awakening Center is too early.”
He said plausible things, but the bottom line was that he didn’t want to go to the Awakening Center.
Why do you keep your eyes wide open and look incomprehensible, like a mother looking at a child who doesn’t want to go to the dentist?
I had a hunch that it was time for my muzzle to work.
I put together a reason why I couldn’t go to the Awakening Center and explained it to her.
“I got this quality through enlightenment. It’s not like the natural talent he had like other hunters has blossomed. I don’t know what Qigong and All Masters are related, but it seems that long study and training have affected the flowering of attributes. Considering that, unlike other normal hunters, what I need is a long study, practice, and continuous effort to understand the manifestation and principles of skills. Even if you go to the Awakening Center right away, nothing will change. Like last time.”
Lee Yu-na flinched when she brought up the word “Last time.”
She was particularly sensitive to the story of ‘Awakening’.
In high school, after she finished her Awakening and I revealed that I was not an Awakener, our paths diverged completely.
She rose from victory to victory and developed to a high-ranking hunter of the Hunter Association, but I fell into an unknown outskirts F-class hunter.
So that’s it. She is sensitive to the awakening center and the word awakening.
Unlike normal hunters who are examined at the Awakening Center when the time is right, she insisted that she go to the Awakening Center as soon as her characteristics manifested.
I was stung by such an outrage.
“Of course, I should visit the Awakening Center once. As a hunter, it is your duty to periodically report to the Awakening Center and report your progress. But I think it’s too early to go right now. My purpose is not to register for awakening and enter a guild to earn money or join the Hunter Association to devote myself to the work of the country. Right now, I just want to appreciate my belatedly manifested traits, think about how to use them, and develop slowly and gradually as I have always done. That is my wish.”
After she finished her words softly, Lee Yu-na looked at me with her relaxed eyes.
A gentle wind blowing.
Seeing me with a calm expression on her face, as if she was not very greedy, as if she had no regrets about her life in obscurity for the past five years, she seemed to admit that she was impatient.
To her, at least I was steadily developing. He is walking his own path without feeling impatient despite the slow development of characteristics that are different from others. He showed such a seeker-like aspect.
Will something change if I suddenly register for awakening and make an urgent development plan?
There is a study that I have been doing up until now, and there is a separate direction to become stronger.
Knowing that drastic change isn’t always good, she seemed to understand what I meant.
“Okay. That’s right… Cheonwoon, luck, you have your own way. Sorry. I was short-tempered.”
Yui lowered her head as if embarrassed, looked away from her, and blinked her eyes.
“No. In general, it is correct to use the Awakening Center. And since I have to go to the report regularly anyway, I’m going to go to the Awakening Center in about six months. Until then, slowly review my skills.”
The explanation really flows like a clearing flow.
I just persuaded me why.
She nodded her head slowly and complied with me.
*
In the end, I decided to visit the Awakening Center after 6 months.
Anyway, that time is the last deadline for the regular report of Hunter Awakening.
It may be possible to be recognized for the manipulated characteristics of being an ‘All Master’, but until then, I need to learn as many skills as possible.
Only then will the false trait of being able to learn all of the various strains be recognized.
Lies beget lies.
In order to hide ‘milking’, a new characteristic called ‘All Master’ was created, but now it has come to the point where you have to learn a variety of skills to prove the characteristic of ‘All Master’.
I really hope that the day will come when I can freely share my ‘milking’ trait.
I wish I had held my head up proudly and proceeded with ‘milking’.
“…”
Come to think of it, it was terrifying when that day came.
I wondered if the world would come to a world where men breastfeeding women on the streets would be the day of the end of the world.
My characteristics were also close to a villain that shouldn’t spread widely in the world.
It suits the negative rather than the positive.
After the explanation, I was thinking about miscellaneous things, and Lee Yu-na called me and woke me up from my thoughts.
“Yeah, do whatever you want. It would be nice in many ways to register for awakening, but it seems that you don’t even want that.”
Again, the smiling face seemed to have no complaints.
“I’m sorry I interrupted your workout. Do whatever you do I’ll be watching from here.”
As if she was looking at me like before, she came out to a bright position and robbed her seat and sat down.
“Are you going to watch?”
“Yes.”
What is fun about the way I exercise?
Lee Yu-na smiled brightly and took the posture of the audience.
I’m a bit strange, but I continued my training.
It was a morning routine to train until the time was right here, so it would be empty if I left it out.
“Lol.”
When she finished her exercise, Yu I nodded her head as if satisfied.
She was fooling around behind her, with her hair pulled back as if it felt good to get some morning air.
“Are you feeling okay?”
I asked if she didn’t have to rest at her house.
“Yes. It doesn’t seem like much of a problem today. I can come out to play like this sometimes.”
The reason for going back to her house My steps were light.
Next day.
And again the next day.
Reason: When she wakes up early in the morning, she comes out to see me.
The frequency of going out for walks in the morning was increasing, as if her physical condition was definitely improving.
One day when you were looking at me like that.
“That’s not what you do.”
He started giving me lessons.
*
“…”
Just after I used the [One Point Crushing] Skill.
Lee Yu-na tackled her.
Having been quietly watching her, I looked at her with her slightly embarrassed eyes.
She raised her finger and pinpointed my posture.
Eyebrows furrowed as if they didn’t like something.
“‘One point crushing’ is not written like that. I don’t know what your swordsmanship style is, but if you want to stab, you shouldn’t throw your sword like that.”
“Then what should I do?”
“Come here.”
The reason I came up to me and she corrected my posture.
The angle of her arms narrowed and her legs a little more apart. Her waist was lowered to keep her center of gravity lower.
To be honest, her pure swordsmanship skills are better than mine.
She is me. After learning at Hunter School, she taught herself while watching [She Understands Kendo], But the reason was that she had learned swordsmanship by learning from senior hunters at the Hunter Association.
She is the one who has grown up receiving various kinds of support as the face representing the Hunter Association in the future.
His characteristic is ‘Swordsword’, so he was one of the top five masters in Korea when it comes to swordsmanship.
The 17th place in the Hunter Ranking didn’t get it for free by eating ground. Lee Yu-na had that much skill.
“Like this?”
[One-Point Crushing LV.1]
I used the skill again as Lee Yu-na corrected it.
“No. That’s not it.”
Reason I shook her head.
“You have to pay more attention to your front foot when you draw the sword. You need to change your position so that the target enemy is within range, and you can stab the enemy from the center of your body, and do not rotate your wrist like that when you draw your sword. Penetration is key. I had already twisted her wrist while she was extending her arm…”
Her explanation was detailed.
I kept her words in mind and used [One Point Crushing] Again.
“That’s not it!”
Why are you shaking your head?
I came back angrily and corrected my posture.
“Try again.”
“Like this?”
“No!”
I tried it several times, but it didn’t seem to like it.
He didn’t care too much about anything else, but he was serious about the sword.
“Can you show me?”
I asked her
What is the correct posture.
Lee Yu-na should have known better than I did.
Because my [Single Point Crush] Is a copy of her [Single Point Crush].
“Now look.”
Lee Yoo-na received the sword from me and gathered mana.
I tried to get her in position, but she was stabbing her on the other end.
Lightning fast.
I wondered if I would be able to avoid it if it had targeted me instead of stabbing the air.
“Ah, that’s how you do it.”
“Yes. So try again.”
I looked at it and stood up again.
The reason why my [One Point Crushing] Skill is still at level 1.
It was because it was only possible to acquire skills through [Feeding], But developing them required skill and repetition.
As the user of her original skill, if she let me know, it was me.
[One-point crushing]
“It’s a little better than before.”
After repeating it several times, Lee Yu-na put on a satisfied expression.
[The skill level has risen.]
[One-Point Crushing LV.1 〉 LV.2]
A system message was also heard.
I guess my skills have definitely improved.
“By the way, are you okay?”
“?”
“You used mana and ran fast.”
Come to think of it, Lee Yu-na’s expression is fine even after spending mana to use [One Point Shatter]. Until now, even if she used a little mana, she couldn’t move easily because of the scars on her chest, but now she seemed relaxed.
“Is that so?”
It was the same reason why I realized that.
