Chapter 22 – Push and Pull (1)
“Right, just one more.”
“Okay… !”
This… , The same year as Little Red Riding Hood.
“Okay, that’s it for today.”
Hehehehe….”
It’s been 3 weeks since I came back from being killed by an orc.
Ignoring the fact that my arm was cracked, Shin Yu-jeong rolled me.
It’s because I can’t use my arms, it’s not like I can’t move my legs.
“Come on up.”
Unable to overcome the guy’s urging, I climbed onto the scale with a tired body.
Bouncing numbers.
Busy going back and forth, the number that stopped was 99.8.
“Wow!”
As soon as I saw this, I unknowingly cheered.
Finally, my weight went from triple digits to double digits.
Shin Yoo-jung, who was watching the instrument panel carefully, smiled and touched my arm with her elbow.
“Hey, are you tall too?”
“Really?”
Oh, it’s real
161.3 cm is stamped on the instrument panel.
In fact, in a way, it was a natural growth.
About two weeks ago, I invested most of the mana I had accumulated so far and put it all into the growth plates that hadn’t closed yet.
If I had to pick the most important things for a young man, wouldn’t it be the size of the face, height, and lower body?
The lower part has already been fixed, and the face is not a part that I can do anything about, so I pass.
It’s only natural to be blinded by the one remaining height.
It’s only been 2 weeks, but I’m seeing the effect.
“Lee Yeol, young. Are you feeling better because you lost some weight?”
Standing on the scale, I looked at the mirror in front of me.
It is true that he still gained weight, but the features buried under his flesh began to show little by little.
The eyes that had been suppressed by the flesh above and below widened slightly.
Maybe it’s because I’ve lost a bit of weight in my face, but my nose seems to be a bit more prominent.
How can I say something, feeling like a cute pig in the style of a piggy with slanted eyes?
I turned my head and looked at Shin Yoo-jung.
“It’s all thanks to you.”
I could have lost weight without her.
No matter how sincere a person is, there is a big difference between someone paying close attention and not.
Thanks to him keeping his eyes wide open, I pulled it out much faster.
“Hmmmm! Well, I know.”
I feel embarrassed to hear you say thank you.
It’s to the point of doubting whether it’s Shin Yoo-jung who has been harassing this body so much in the past.
“Well, what if you’re grateful… , At least one meal. What are you, I received a hefty reward from the association the other day.”
Hey, that’s amazing
The kid I’ve only met at the gym for the past three weeks asks me to buy him some food.
Did he even feel affection for it, or was that a trick to tame me?
Either way it doesn’t matter.
“Sorry, I have somewhere to go today.”
I don’t have time today
Shin Yoo-jung’s face turned pouty.
“… Where’s the kid who’s a mess in the corner of the room going?”
This.
You can see the bad mood in real time.
It seems that Chinta, who still thought he was far below him, didn’t like the fact that he rejected his offer.
However, I have a card that will instantly reverse his displeasure.
“Today, the association said they would enroll you in a magic academy.”
“What… ? In association?”
Association card.
“Oh, didn’t I tell you last time? The association said they would allow me to attend Korean universities from the second semester. So, they told me to learn basic magic first.”
The expression that was full of anger becomes gentle as if it was like that when.
He seems like an easy-to-understand guy.
“So… , The association will teach you magic and send you to university… ? That too as a special admission.”
“Yes.”
Oh look at that
It is obvious that he is forcibly holding back the corners of his mouth going up.
“Hmmmm! Then you are my motivation. Ha, true It was a bit big on the topic of Chinta… ?”
Haha, is that so….”
I awkwardly scratched the back of my head as I answered, and he patted me on the back.
“Come on, if that’s the case, go quickly. Don’t make the Association people wait for nothing.”
“Yeah, yes.”
I was pushed into the locker room by the guy’s backbone.
I quickly washed off my sweat and came out and changed my clothes. At the same time, Shin Yoo-jung came out of the women’s locker room, shaking her wet hair.
“I didn’t dry my hair again.”
“Oh, it’s annoying. Dry yourself off.”
I showed it once, and every time they ask me to use it.
She had no choice but to dry his hair dry using dehydration magic.
“I really wish I could use this magic. Reorganize, really.”
“Talk to me anytime. I will write for you.”
I secretly push my presence to Shin Yoo-jung, who is regretting it.
“Ha, kid. See how he sneaks up on you?”
Shin Yoo-jung, who lifts the corner of her mouth and rests her legs.
I acted embarrassed and hurriedly waved my hand.
“Oh, no. It’s not like that… , Just because you said you were comfortable.”
Preliminary work is the most important law to hit the back of the head.
You should feel close to him little by little and give off the feeling of being subordinated to him.
Seemingly satisfied with my answer, he puts his arm around my shoulder.
“Baby, are you going right away?”
“Yes. It’s not very far from here.”
“Ah~ It looks like the magic academy over there.”
The boy pulled his arm from his shoulder and walked away.
“Then I go. See you.”
“Oh, bye.”
Like a well-behaved puppy, I waved his hand lightly until he walked away.
“Ugh.”
When I’m with Shin Yoo-jung, I feel like my energy is going faster.
It’s all because of this body.
Just looking at that face makes me feel tension all over my body.
Still, looking at it, it’s better than before, but it seems like it will take quite a while for it to disappear altogether.
It doesn’t make sense that it was rolled for 3 years and then forgotten after only a month.
Turn your body in the opposite direction he walked.
I heard there’s a magic academy I need to go to not far from here.
“Let’s see….”
I walked along the road looking at the map sent to my smartphone.
Did you walk for about 5 minutes?
“Oh, is this place?”
I can see a 5-story building that is incomparably taller than the other buildings.
At the top of the building, there is a signboard that reads ‘Park Cheol-soo Magic Academy’.
As I walked closer to the building, I saw Yoon Ji-an wearing the same outfit as last time.
“Hello.”
“Ah, you are here.”
Her leader followed her into her academy.
Looking around, there are quite a few people pacing around the academy.
“Wow… , Are these all Awoken?”
“Yes that’s right.”
“Certainly, the status of a wizard is enormous.”
The people gathered here didn’t come to the academy because they were all talented in magic.
Maybe I have a talent for magic… ? These are the people I found with my heart.
Because if you can become a wizard, you truly become a noble.
How many of them are real wizards?
I wonder if it would be more than two or three people.
Take the elevator to the top floor, the 5th floor.
“This is it.”
A door with the words “Director’s Office” Written on it.
As she opens the door that Ji-an Yun opened, she sees a gray-haired middle-aged man.
That person must be Director Park Chul-soo, who was caught on the signboard of the building.
Yoon Ji-an, who came in after him, greeted him politely.
“Hello, Director.”
“Welcome, Mr. Yoon Ji-an. Oh, this one… ?”
The director’s gaze glares at me.
“Yes, that’s right. This is Mr. Kim Do-jin, who took the special lecture this time.”
Yoon Ji-an’s gaze also turned to me.
Reading her notice, I immediately bowed my head toward Director Park Chul-soo.
“This is Kim Dojin.”
“Nice to meet you, Director Park Chul-soo.”
We shook hands lightly.
“Now, let’s sit down.”
Park Cheol-soo sat down first, and I and Yoon Ji-an sat on the chairs across from him.
“Okay. I heard that he succeeded in self-taught magic….”
“Yes, the earth needle was successful.”
“Huh… , It’s not common magic, but attribute magic has succeeded.”
Common magic refers to magic that is used only by using the array of magical powers without changing properties.
Magic missiles and shield-like magic belong to this category.
Apparently, the magic circle in charge of attribute conversion is reduced, so the difficulty is a little easier.
“Can I have a look?”
“Yes.”
At his suggestion, he immediately draws in the magical powers around him.
The image of the land that emerges as an image is overlaid on magic, and it is gathered to take shape.
This time, I implemented the shape as it was seen on Me Tube.
Before long, sharp brown needles appeared before my eyes.
“Here you go.”
When he put the result in front of his eyes, Director Park Chul-soo’s mouth dropped open after confirming it.
What is it, why are you like that
* * *
It’s night.
It was afternoon when I entered the magic academy.
Realized once again
There are no normal people among wizards.
“I’ll write a little slower….”
Director Park Chul-soo was surprised by only one thing.
It was the speed at which the earth needle was created.
It took about 20 seconds for beginners who were just learning magic, who couldn’t even be called wizards yet, to create an earth needle.
Beginner wizards are said to be around 10 seconds.
But the time it took me to create the earth needle was only 5 seconds.
It was an absurd speed that an awakened person who had never learned magic should not show.
It started from then.
Director Park Chul-soo’s courtship song.
“Oh, creepy.”
He almost grabbed me by the crotch of his pants, hanging on to me and asking me if I had any intention of becoming his disciple.
The position of director of a magic academy is not easy to obtain.
Only magicians who have passed thorough verification through government agencies can be permitted to establish an academy.
In other words, Director Park Chul-soo is a competent person guaranteed by the state.
Others would have accepted it straight away, but I declined.
If I use my abilities well, I can get suggestions from even the top wizards in Korea. Why?
“What… , It still feels good.”
Director Park Chul-soo came out like that, and Yoon Ji-an looked extremely surprised.
She, who took me to the front of the house a while ago and went back, will report it to the association as it is, and my stock price will rise even more.
If you ask for something sneakily, I think he will do everything.
It was when I was walking up the stairs with a hearty smile.
“Ah… , Do Jin-ah.”
Just in time, I ran into a woman who opened the door and came out.
An awkward atmosphere engulfs the surroundings.
“Oh, hello. Madame….”
I greeted her aunt in the most awkward way possible.
“Yeah, yes.”
It’s been almost 3 weeks.
To see her face to face like this.
Morning workout? Didn’t
Even after we parted like that, the lady always came to visit me at dawn.
She refused, giving the excuse that her arm was sore that she wouldn’t be able to exercise.
Even so, I exercised with Shin Yoo-jung every afternoon.
Perhaps at least once I heard from her that I was doing her workout.
To cut ties with her auntie? Not.
It can be seen as a step back to go deeper.
A high level of aim to make people keep paying attention even though they are not looking.
There is no such thing as advanced technique between a man and a woman.
However, I just want to solve it my way.
Isn’t it similar in a way?
Dealing with monsters and dealing with women.
It is all about grasping the other person’s psychology and behavioral patterns and preoccupying a better position.
“I… , Do Jin-ah.”
In the midst of the silence, the lady called me.
His expression was strange.
It’s awkward, but it feels like there’s something dissatisfying.
“Arm, are you all right?”
“Ah… , Yes.”
“Then exercise in the morning… , I can go.”
“That….”
Can go
Can go or not
But he didn’t immediately answer yes.
There was something on his mind, so he constantly expressed the feeling of hesitation.
Then the aunt opened her mouth again.
“Do you have anything else to do tomorrow morning?”
“No, there is nothing like that….”
“Then you can go.”
The woman’s tone became a little more forceful.
“I will go up in the morning, so be prepared.”
A terrifying aura seemed to emanate from it.
So she decided that it was impossible to stay away from it any longer.
“Uh, yes.”
I was a little scared.
