Chapter 333 – Talent, Dreams, and Happiness (9)
Seo Ju-hwan woke up late in the morning. Normally, he would have gotten up early in the morning and already went to exercise, but the violent action of the previous day had a slight aftermath.
“It’s refreshing though.”
Maybe it was because he hadn’t had a good night’s sleep in a long time. Even though I had just opened my eyes, my mind was clear. He believed in his ‘sleep’ talent his and overworked himself for a while, but all his fatigue his was restored with just one sleep.
‘Let’s see.’
He opened the system window and started his morning routine. First of all, press ‘Random Item Draw 2 Times’. As usual, items with little merit such as ‘aroma scented candles’ and ‘sweet candy’ came out.
Tsk, click your tongue once and open the status window. Anyway, the main of the day was different.
Talent, Fascination (F/A+).
It’s a talent I got from Gabriella last night. Points were invested immediately.
[Uses 21,500LP.]
[Talent, ‘Enchantment’ grade has risen to A.]
Then, special abilities were selected.
[Use 10,000 LP.]
[The special ability ‘Whisper’ has been acquired.]
‘Whisper?’
Whisper literally means whisper or whisper.
What does enchantment have to do with whispers?
Opened the special ability description window.
【Whisper】
▶ Effect 1: Talk to the other person’s unconscious.
▶ Effect 2: Decreases the opponent’s judgment.
▶ Effect 3: Unknown trust dwells in the user’s words.
※ Whisper’s effect depends on the favorability level of the opponent.
Seo Joo-hwan let out a small exclamation.
The ability to blur the opponent’s judgment and increase the reliability of my words by whispering words to the unconscious. I wondered what whispers had to do with fascination, but looking at the explanation, nothing seemed more appropriate than this.
Seo Joo-hwan looked back at the woman lying next to her.
A platinum-haired beauty who sleeps softly.
Suddenly, she remembered the time when she was almost bewitched by Gabriela. Dinner with her. On that day, he had listened to her story with an unusually somewhat clouded mind. As much as Whisper is a branch of the enchantment talent, it was no wonder that she also had the power to mesmerize her opponents her.
‘Depending on how you use it… It must be amazing.’
If persuasion and negotiation were needed, there seemed to be no talent as powerful as this. If you exaggerate a bit, you could call it ‘mind control’, and in common usage these days, it was an ability optimized for ‘gaslighting’.
After checking her ability her, Seo Joo-hwan shook Gabriella, who was still asleep.
“Gabriella, wake up. It’s morning.”
“Yes…?”
Gabriella mumbled and tossed her body her. She drags the blanket over and turns to lie on her back her.
Seo Joo-hwan grabbed Gabriella’s shoulder again and shook her. However, no matter how much she shook her, she did not wake up easily.
A few minutes to wake up like that.
“Gabriella, stand up…….”
Slap!
In an instant, Gabriela’s hand her flew up.
She glared at him with lightly open eyes and said coldly.
“Noisy.”
Then, as if nothing had happened, Gabriella closed her eyes again and cooed.
“… This year?”
Seo Joo-hwan let out a laugh as if he was full of energy. It’s not like he acted out of a sane mind. It seems that he has a bad sleeping habit. Well, he went through the trouble yesterday, so it wasn’t something he couldn’t understand why he couldn’t wake up easily.
However, today is the last time Gabriela stays in Korea. Considering my promise in the afternoon, it was time for her to wake up.
‘Whisper.’
As a test of her ability, he decides to use Whisper on Gabriella, who is still asleep.
[Use the special ability, Whisper.]
[Whispering your voice directly into the other person’s unconscious.]
“Wake up, Gabriella.”
A voice with a strange resonance vibrates.
In an instant, Gabriela’s body her trembled.
“… Joo-hwan?”
No matter how shaken she didn’t wake up, she opened her eyes right away at the call.
‘The effect is good.’
Seo Joo-hwan smiled and spoke again.
“If you don’t get up right away, will you put it in?”
“!”
Gabriela jumped up and stepped behind her, covering her body with her with the blanket. Leaning her body her against the wall, she trembled her lips as she looked at Seo Ju-hwan like a monster.
“What are you talking about as soon as you wake up? You did that yesterday!”
“Gabriella, can you see this?”
“Yes?”
Seo Joo-hwan suddenly puts out his hand.
The back of his hand was stained red as if he had been hit by something.
He licks his lips and says.
“Are you feeling sick?”
“… Could it be that I did it?”
“Yes. When I woke up, they said it was noisy and hit me.”
“Ugh. I’m sorry, Joo-hwan. I never did it on purpose.”
“Okay? I thought it was because it was useless now that I had done my business.”
“Oh, that can’t be! It’s a misunderstanding, Joo-hwan!”
Gabriella held out her hands in front of her, her bewildered face her, and clapped her hands. Thanks to her her, her blanket her flowed down, exposing her immaculate breasts her.
Gulp.
Seo Ju-hwan swallowed. Her naked body her, revealed in the brightly lit room, looked very beautiful.
‘It was a joke to put it in.’
Wasn’t one thing from last night not enough? Her blood her rushed downward.
At that time, Gabriella’s eyes her trembled as she discovered something.
“… Joo-hwan, isn’t it? You did that yesterday. Yes?”
Her eyes were looking at it standing tall.
Seo Joo-hwan smiled and whispered.
“Lets do it.”
*
Seo Joo-hwan made a promise after a bout of wallowing in the morning.
‘Let’s not abuse it.’
It was decided to use it appropriately if necessary, but not to abuse it indiscriminately. Especially for the women who are with them.
‘If I make a mistake, I’ll look like before.’
She was talking about when she broke up with Jeong Ha-yeon. At the time, he abused the effect of items that gave ‘addiction’and ‘obedience’, and his relationship with Jeong Ha-yeon was strained. One such experience was enough.
Of course, he had no intention of putting the abilities he had acquired so far on the grounds that he was afraid of the future that had not yet arrived. Depending on how you use it, it’s a very useful ability.
“Joo-hwan is a monster. I pity the woman who will marry you later.”
“You want to do it one more time?”
“…….”
“It’s a joke.”
“… Can’t you be a little nicer to me? They often threaten me.”
Gabriela grumbled, pursed her lips. I went out with a low profile because I was twisted from the meeting, but isn’t that a thing of the past now? We will break up tomorrow, but I wanted to unravel the twisted relationship before then.
Seo Joo-hwan scratched the corners of her eyes and looked at her. He had a tendency, in his opinion of her, to be a bit harsh with her. She also tested Whisper in the first place, something she wouldn’t have done if it had been other women.
He said, ruffling Gabriela’s hair.
“Sorry.”
“… Did you apologize to me?”
She opened her eyes wide in surprise.
“Well, it’s because I was a bit harsh. It’s not because I hate you. It was because it was pretty.”
“… That’s enough. It wasn’t just that I hated it.”
Gabriela said, avoiding her gaze at her.
Seo Joo-hwan smiled and whispered to her.
“So was it good?”
“Joe, I never said yes.”
“Well. Then why don’t we do it tonight?”
All of her abilities her have already been restored. The buff effect of’Sex Teacher’applied through the act of the previous night is 300% in total, including the affinity that reached A. Once and for all, she restored her abilities to her to S, so she no longer had to mix her body her with him.
But Gabriella frowned at her.
“I said I’m sorry, but I threatened again…….”
“Yes?”
“You’re threatening me with the restoration of my abilities. Joo-hwan needs me to cling to him, right?”
“No, not that… “
Seo Joo-hwan tried to clear up the misunderstanding, but Gabriella spoke faster.
“Okay, I got it. Please do it with me, Joo-hwan. Either tonight or tomorrow morning. That way you can recover.”
Seo Joo-hwan laughed.
‘Aha. Can I be the bad guy?’
Wasn’t she the one who sensitively felt the decline in her divination talent? There was no way that she did n’t know that all of her abilities her had been restored.
That is, she was looking for an excuse to have sex now. She urges him to be the bad guy.
Seo Joo-hwan smiled and said.
“Okay, if you want to recover your abilities, listen carefully. Got it?”
“… I can’t help it, really.”
I laughed out loud as I watched her speak softly. Apparently, he liked sex.
*
Around evening.
“Show me your ticket.”
“Here you go.”
“Yes. You can go to your seat.”
Seo Joo-hwan and Gabriela entered the building and took their seats.
After some time.
Gabriela said in a nonchalant tone.
“The level is not good.”
“Well, it’s not such a big match. Still, this is quite a lot of people.”
“This one?”
“Uh. The situation in the Korean martial arts market is not very good.”
Seo Joo-hwan looked around. There are empty seats everywhere, but there were quite a lot of people.
‘There are more people than I thought.’
The domestic fighting world is poor.
Before earning a name in earnest, most of the players who do not earn a single penny properly work a double job.
The situation in women’s martial arts is worse. The lower the interest, the lower the support and advertising. Among the spectators who bought tickets, there were often cases in which they woke up only to see male fighters fight.
But today the mood was a bit different. Even though most of the matches, including the main match, were over, many people remained. People who were going home saw the attitude of the fight fans and sat down again.
Fighting fans mentioned the familiar name.
“Deokja Jang, you really came back.”
“The exciting fighting was worth watching.”
“Surely Kim A-rang pointed out last month at the UFC in Busan, right?”
“Uh. So I thought I would come back, but I didn’t expect it to be this fast.”
“It’s too early to come back… Can I win?”
“It will be hard. Still, I don’t know if it’s because I’m a player who has even had a title fight.”
After a while, Deokja Jang climbed onto the cage.
The match begins.
Seo Joo-hwan and Gabriela watched the game from the front row. Gabriella said in a slightly sad tone.
“It’s hard to see a set result.”
The other day, Gabriella predicted the game of Deokja Jang. At the time, it was said that it would be a tough match, but in reality defeat was certain.
Seo Joo-hwan shook his head slightly.
“The future is always changing.”
“… Fate is fixed.”
“It’s different from what you said when we first met.”
“Yes?”
Gabriela looks at him in wonder.
Seo Joo-hwan said while watching the game without blinking.
“Fate can change at any time, and there are tens of thousands of ways. It is the will of a person that determines the variable path, so make your will strong. That’s what you said at the Tarot Cafe.”
“That…”
It’s just one of the things I say as an astrologer. That’s not a lie, but it was only true in the distant future. It was infinitely close to impossible to suddenly change the reality that was right in front of us.
“…….”
Gabriella turned her gaze back to Deokja Jang without a word. Apart from what she thought was near impossible, she also wanted Deokja Jang to win.
“Ah!”
At that moment, exclamations resounded in the stadium.
An exchange of fists and fists.
Baek! Deokja Jang’s body shook with a harsh blow.
*
Deokja Jang took a deep breath.
“Whoop, whoop.”
It was known through several workshop exchanges. Certainly, my senses have become incomparably dull compared to when I was playing active duty.
‘If only it was like the old days…….’
It was not a clumsy trade-off like the attack from earlier, but it was able to feed the counter. Even if he couldn’t see it, he would have instinctively avoided it.
But the break of the last few years has taken away his flair as a fighter. His stamina and other physical abilities improved his, but he became weaker as a fighter.
I bit my teeth softly, and the opponent grinned and said.
“I am a fan of Deokja. However, it is more disappointing than I thought.”
“…….”
Cheeky. In the old days, you were already rolling on the cage floor.
Deokja Jang chewed and swallowed the words that lingered in his mouth. Whatever the past, the important thing is the present. I regretted the time I left the cage again.
“Going.”
The fist approached with a shriek and the sound of cutting through the air.
Deokja Jang barely avoided him and stretched out his left hand his. But before he could reach his hand, he felt a sharp pain in his calf.
Wow!
After attracting attention with a jab, a low kick.
I was hooked on a simple paint job.
“Kuk!”
In preparation for the next attack, he crouched down and set up his guard tightly.
Damn!
Another low kick coming in.
I had to avoid it, but I couldn’t react.
‘Fuck. I didn’t come back for this!’
Throughout the first round, he failed to land a single effective hit and was only getting hit. I couldn’t finish without one proper attack like this.
Deokja Jang gave strength to his trembling legs and ran forward. Anyway, the physical is higher than before. Just one bite and you can get back the initiative.
“Dukja, no! Watch the first round!”
A call from the coaches.
Blah blah!
Cross counter. His left hand his, crossed over his outstretched right arm his, hit his chin straight. My consciousness flickered for a moment, and all the power drained from my body.
Stumble.
The cage floor rose up to his face. No, the body crashes to the cage floor.
‘Ah…….’
Am I the only one who has this A series of rudimentary mistakes even though he has a body that has been through the title fight. Also, the preparation time was too short. I should have raised the sense of practice more.
‘No!’
Tall. I caught the center of my body about to collapse. It can’t end like this. Fortunately, the body, which is better than before, withstood the shock.
However, the opponent did not give me time to control my body. The follow-up shot flew. Fists close Before I could even stand up. If it hits this time, it’s over.
Then, a familiar voice rang in my head.
– Do you remember the promise? What I decided not to do in front of the ground.
Deokja Jang opened his eyes and leaned forward.
Ducking. His fist his passes over his head his.
‘Can’t? I can’t do that!’
He then twists his waist and raises his fist to strike.
Liver blow that looks as if it was drawn in a picture.
Quadduk!
I felt a pleasant hand taste.
