Chapter 182 – The Second Couple
Perhaps because there is no one around him, his usual gentle appearance has disappeared and Choi Hyeon-woo shows an arrogant attitude.
Seong-il is furious at his appearance, but turns his back on him, suppressing his anger.
‘Baby… See you soon.’
Since Seong-il was getting stronger very quickly after awakening as a game master, he was confident that he would surpass Choi Hyeon-woo sooner or later. Because of this, he dissipates his immediate anger and moves to the training ground to meet Lee Ah-hyun.
‘Still, I can’t help but get upset. Now that it’s come to this, I need to quickly make Lee Ah-hyun my woman. Then Choi Hyeon-woo would be worth seeing, right?’
Unlike the messy game world, Seong-il thought it would be okay to have at least one woman in real life. If the target is Lee Ah-hyun, I think there is nothing lacking.
‘Well… I was trying to seduce Lee Ah-hyun with a voodoo doll, but if Choi Hyun-woo pisses me off like that, I’ll have a sense of purpose and it’ll be better.’
Seong-il, who had such a sinister thought, arrived in front of the training room before he knew it, and he opened the door to find Lee Ah-hyun.
“Do you have Ahyeon?”
“Oh, are you here?”
And in front of Seongil’s eyes, Lee Ah-hyun with a neat face appears.
‘Hehe… It’s been a long time since I’ve seen her, she’s pretty.’
Similar to Eun-wol, Lee Ah-hyun has a cold beauty style. If Eun-wol is cold on the outside and has a beagle on the inside, Lee Ah-hyun is cold and cold to the core, so Seong-il wants to crush her as soon as possible.
‘Sooner or later… Lee Ah-hyun will also be in my hands…’
Hiding his inner feelings, Seong-il quickly changes into her training clothes in her dressing room and goes out in front of her.
“If you change into your combat uniform, are you going to start right away?”
“No, before that, I need to ask you something.”
“Hmm? What is it? Tell me.”
“Ah, it’s because of Choi Hyun-woo’s work.”
Lee Ah-hyun’s facial expression stiffens at the appearance of her name, Choi Hyeon-woo, and her Seong-il begins to explain what just happened to her.
“…So you came and told me to leave the team?”
“Yeah. Saying that I really wanted to be on your team.”
“…”
Lee Ah-hyun, whose expression rarely changes. After hearing the explanation of her holy day, she starts to look very tired.
“Haa… That’s a pain in the ass…”
“So, what are you going to do? Listening to what he says, he doesn’t seem to have the slightest intention of giving up on you. It’s annoying, but should I just leave?”
Now, Seong-Il is upset with Hyun-Woo Choi, who acts arrogantly, saying that he is doing well. As he grumbled with a stiff expression on his face, Lee Ah-hyun continued talking as if to soothe him.
“Don’t worry, I have no intention of letting you leave and accepting Hyeonu. No, it’s true that Hyeonu Choi cannot join the team I made regardless of you.”
‘…It must have suffered quite a bit.’
Seong-il smiled bitterly at Lee Ah-hyun’s reaction and started answering.
“Doesn’t he think so?”
“…?”
“Looking at the way you talked to me during the day, later on, you were going to intimidate our teammates and kick them out and force them in. You’d better be careful.”
“Hmm…”
Lee Ah-hyun, who once again hardens his expression at the warning of the boneless Seong-il. As she stands contemplating something of hers, her seong-il serves to arouse the atmosphere and changes the topic.
“First of all, I’ll tell you later if Choi Hyeon-woo plays tricks. For now, let’s start with sparring.”
“Haa… Ok. You don’t have to give your head a headache over something that hasn’t happened yet.”
Having said that, the two naturally moved to the middle of the gymnasium. After that, Seong-il thinks as he takes the ceremony of starting bankruptcy for the first time in a long time.
‘Recently, I’ve been training mostly Taegeukgeomgyeol… But that doesn’t mean I’ve let go of the Bankruptcy Priesthood training.’
‘And! There is also advanced acceleration!! This time, I will definitely win against Lee Ah-hyun!!’
For Lee Ah-hyun, only about a week had passed, but for Seong-il, it was almost 3-4 months, so he looked at Lee Ah-hyun with a very confident expression.
Ah-hyeon is puzzled by Seong-il’s appearance and asks a question.
“Huh? You must be quite confident.”
‘Oops!’
Seeing her self-confidence and wanting to take a pity on her puzzled Ah-hyeon’s question, Seong-il starts making excuses for her to her.
“Ah, since it’s been about a week since Chu’s awakening, I’ve gotten used to how to use my abilities. It’ll be different from before. I guarantee it.”
“Well… It’s good if you’re full of confidence. For you and for the team. Then where should we look at your skills?”
The melancholic appearance disappears, and Lee Ah-hyun looks down at Seong-il with a lofty appearance. Seong-il feels a strange excitement at seeing her like that.
‘Hehe… It must be fun to bring such a cold beauty to her knees, right?’
Thinking so, Seong-il pours his inner energy into her body and uses her 『Emotion』 To prepare for Ah-hyun’s distortion of space.
‘It won’t be like last time!!’
While he thinks so. The timer in the arena starts announcing the start of the battle.
“5… 4… 3… 2… 1… Let the battle begin!!”
‘Now… Shall we go?’
Seong-il starts to rush at Lee Ah-hyun, stepping on the unique step of the bankrupt priesthood.
Seeing Seong-il like that, Lee Ah-hyun casts space distortion with both of her hands, making the road he runs on bumpy.
‘I’ve been hit once, will I get hit again?’
Seong-Il gritted his teeth at Ah-Hyeon’s trick and spread her Jin-Gak (震脚), stepping on the floor as if to break her floor.
Quaang!!
She stepped so hard that she cracked the floor of the hard gymnasium. In such a situation, Seong-il uses the power of his one foot as a driving force and starts charging at Lee Ah-hyun at an incredibly fast speed.
‘Eat this!!’
In this way, Seong-il raises all the 4-star inner skills of the Heaven, Earth, Yin-Yang, and the Heavenly Earth, Yin-Yang, and gives an explosive recommendation.
“Heuk!!”
Lee Ah-hyun is embarrassed because Seong-il did not know how to easily close the distance by destroying his ability so quickly. She spreads her palms to block his fists.
Watery!!
‘Huh?’
Seong-il turns his eyes to his knuckles without realizing it. Then an amazing sight to behold.
‘Is the space… Warped?’
Lee Ah-hyun created a distorted space that looked like a large disk in her hand. She uses the space as a shield to block Seongil’s destructive offensive.
Ahyeon then pours the power of the elastic shield forward on Seongil as if pushing it forward. Then he gets stuck in the corner of one wall.
Pew!!
“Cheuk!!”
Seong-il looks curiously at Lee Ah-hyun’s shield (?), Which reflects the power of her own fist. Then Lee Ah-hyun smiled and started explaining to him.
“It’s a shield made by applying space distortion. As long as it’s not destructive enough to tear space apart, it can reflect damage as well as block it.”
Having said that, Ahyeon Lee removes her shield again and raises one hand to spread her distortion ability on the floor near Seongil.
‘Is that so…?’
At Ahyeon’s words, Seongil unfolds 『Emotion』 And once again promptly grasps the obstacles on the floor.
‘I feel it.’
The strange power felt everywhere and the situation on the floor distorted by it. Seong-il receives intense stimulation as if architectural blueprints are unfolding in his head, and he feels something awakening inside him.
‘Um… What is it?’
Seong-Il feels a strange sense of incongruity in the feeling of 『Emotion』 That is different from before. However, since he was still in the middle of the battle, Seong-il puts that feeling behind and starts charging Lee Ah-hyun while holding the ceremony for bankruptcy priesthood once again.
‘Are you going to block this this time?’
“Whoa… Suck!!”
After taking a breath, Seong-il takes on the steps of the hegemonic bankruptcy priesthood. As Lee Ah-hyun unfolds her spatial distortion in accordance with the situation, Seong-il uses the imprint of her advanced haste and charges at her twice as fast as before.
“!!!”
Ah-yeon is frightened by Seong-il’s terrifying rush. She once again creates a space shield in one hand to block his attack.
‘It doesn’t work twice!’
At Seong-il’s ridiculous speed, she quickly turns to Ah-hyeon’s side and wields her jangbeop.
“Cheuk!!”
Seong-il strikes Ah-hyeon’s vital point by crossing his palm in a straight line between his side and abdomen. The blow caused her to collapse on the spot in excruciating pain.
“Heo-euk… Heo-euk…!!”
Ah-hyeon finds it difficult to breathe because of the pain in her stomach.
‘Fuck… I tried to hit with a spear instead of a fist just in case… Did I hit it too hard?’
Worried about her, Seong-il quickly approaches her, pats her on the back, and asks about her condition.
“Are you okay?”
“Keahhhhh!!”
Lee Ah-hyun just stared at the floor without answering, perhaps because the pain was too severe. She eventually even drools in her excruciating pain.
‘…Fuck, I’m sorry about this.’
Ahyeon, who had been on her knees for about three minutes and picked her breath, answered as if she had calmed down, looking at her Seongil with a shocked look on her face.
“You… Vs… What the hell happened in a week?”
Even a week ago, when he just awakened his fighting ability, Seong-il’s ability was unusual, but now it is safe to say that his fighting ability is on a different level, and Ah-hyun is shocked.
Feeling proud of her attitude, Seong-il pretends nothing is wrong and opens up to her.
“Ah, I told you. You now have a sense of your blossomed abilities.”
“But you’ve gotten this strong in just one week? That’s right…”
Seong-il, unable to answer Ah-hyeon’s response, makes up her rough words and starts answering her.
“Ah, actually, it’s probably because I synchronized the martial arts, which I had been studying with the martial arts master I had before, with my changed body.”
“…Martial Arts?”
“Yes. It’s a martial art, but it’s a one-person transmission. In the last match, I used it clumsily because I was still familiar with the body of an ordinary person. After about a week, I was able to naturally optimize it and spread it. As a bonus, the body strengthening ability was amplified as a bonus.”
“Hmm…”
At Seong-il’s words, Ah-yeon looks at him with a strange expression.
“It’s a simple martial art, but that kind of thing is possible…?”
“Sure. Would you like to see it?”
“…It would be nice if you would.”
Ah-hyun expresses curiosity about the bankruptcy priesthood’s ability to subdue her easily. Seong-il is quite interested in seeing her like that.
‘Hoh… He seems to be interested in things like this? When you use this to seduce her later, you’ll probably see her use it?’
Thinking so, Seong-il helps her Ah-hyeon make her sit comfortably, and then in the middle of her gymnasium, Seong-il holds the flag ceremony for her bankrupt priesthood.
“Look closely. This is the Kwonbeop called the bankruptcy priesthood. In fact, the Kwonbeop training itself isn’t too difficult. It’s only eight moves at most.”
“…Eight?”
“Yes. Eight. However, if you use Byeoncho well, there are infinite ways to use it, so you shouldn’t just think of it as eight. Also, every time you use Herbsik, it helps to control your strength (internal energy) and control your breathing. There are also different uses, eight, but not eight.”
After saying that, Seong-il begins to practice bankruptcy in front of Ah-hyun with all his might. Ah-hyun feels a sense of surprise at the very strong momentum.
