Chapter 36 – I Was Wrong, Sister
[Use 3,000 LP to increase Talent, Baktu (C+) to Bak2 (B).]
[Speed reading (F) increases to speed reading (B) by using 7,500 LP.]
[Use 10,000 LP to purchase talent, 『Baktu』’S random special ability.]
[You have acquired the special ability 『Concentration: Slow Video』.]
[Use 10,000 LP to purchase talent, 『Speed Reading』 Random special ability.]
[You have acquired the special ability 『Intensive Reading & Speed Reading』.]
Seo Joo-hwan raised Baktu and speed reading to B grade and purchased special abilities for each. That alone consumed a huge amount of points worth 30,500LP.
More value than the points obtained from Choi Mi-hwa.
However, it was worth the price when it was a special ability.
【Focus: Slow Video】
▶Effect: Moving vision and accidents are quickened.
※ The full effect is only exerted in a fight situation.
【Intensive reading & speed reading】
▶ Effect: You can do speed reading like intensive reading without missing a single letter.
A satisfied smile appeared on Seo Ju-hwan’s face when he saw the two special abilities.
It was a relatively simple explanation compared to writing or games, but the effect was outstanding.
“Now I won’t be beaten anywhere.”
Of course, originally, I wasn’t the type to get hit anywhere.
As much as he lived an unhappy life, he also had a toxic side. After becoming an adult, I didn’t have to fight physically, so I became docile.
What I particularly liked was the second special ability. For him, who likes reading as much as writing,『Intensive Reading&Speed Reading』Was a special skill he liked enough to be compared to 『Stenographer’s Keyboard』, Which he acquired from his writing talent.
“Status window.”
The first status window you open after being discharged.
Name: Seo Joo-hwan
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Height: 175cm
Weight: 76kg
Talents: 【Writing (B/B+)】, 【Games (B/B+)】, 【Education (D+/A+)】, 【Bactu (B/A)】, 【Speed reading (B/A+)】
Skills: 【Pheromone (Rank: B)】, 【Holy Touch (Rank: C+)】, 【Holy Seed Sac (Rank: F)】
Special Ability: 【Stenographer’s Speed】, 【Multitasking: Multitasking】, 【Concentration: Slow Video】, 【Furious&Speed Reading】
Blessings: 【Dreamer’s Blessing (23)】, 【Helchang’s Blessing (23)】
It was updated incomparably with the simple status window at the beginning.
Just looking at it made me feel confident and confident that I could do anything.

Another week passed.
It’s already mid-February.
In the meantime, Seo Joo-hwan has been writing sincerely, and after the contract, he was recording a performance that could not be compared to before returning through successful conversion to pay for more than 10,000 purchases per episode.
He checked the points that came in all night.
[Accomplishment, 『Today’s Best 1st Place』, 1,000LP will be paid.]
[Accomplishment, 『Weekly Best 1st Place』, 3,000LP will be paid.]
The biggest change after the paid conversion was the activation of serialization-related achievements.
Today Best 1,000LP.
Weekly Best 3.000LP.
I haven’t been able to confirm how much the monthly best gives yet. I thought maybe I could check it out within this month. Of course, if they do not win first place, they will have to aim for next month, but with the current momentum of ‘Master of Possession’, the possibility was sufficient.
‘Because there’s also a first month buff.’
Anyway, the important thing is that there is a stable LP supply source. Surprisingly, the best series achievement was an achievement that could be duplicated, and a small amount of LP was awarded if it was only in the top 10, even if not as much as the first place.
Thanks to this, Seo Joo-hwan was able to obtain LPs to use for 『Blessing of Concentration』 And 『Item Draw』.
“Hmm. I’m not sure if it’s okay….”
He scratched his head while looking at the post he had finished editing.
It is difficult to look at his writings objectively. Even though he possessed B-level writing talent, writing was still a difficult task.
“Whoa. Just because you raise your talent doesn’t mean you’ll be all prosperous.”
It was something I realized recently, but even if I raised my talent, it didn’t mean that my essential skills increased.
Should we say that the domains of talent and knowledge are different?
Taking Baktu talent as an example, it was clear.
Seo Joo-hwan had a box-fighting talent that could be compared to that of quite a few pros, but that wasn’t the case if he could really win.
They are literally pros. It is a monster with a body optimized for combat as well as trained in all kinds of martial arts.
On the other hand, he simply had talent, but he was in the state of unprocessed gemstone. Of course, he also has a special ability, so if he decided to fight, it was something he wouldn’t have known.
The point was that in order to bring out 100% of one’s talent, one’s own effort is also required.
‘Am I using all my writing talent?’
At least compared to other talents, the efficiency is definitely good. It was only natural that he had a rhythm that he wrote while making writing his profession.
However, whether it is 100% utilized is still a question. Still, it wasn’t once or twice when I got stuck in the middle of writing.
Fortunately, there was someone who could relieve a lot of this stuffiness.
Seo Joo-hwan sent the stockpile that had been renovated to Choi Mi-hwa. 1 disappeared immediately, and a reply came back shortly after.
[Choi Mi-hwa (Lewd Rabbit)]
– This episode is also fun!
– By the way, the psychological description of Namgung Seo-rin seems a little awkward. Can you explain what you were thinking when you wrote it?
– Oh, and there’s an inscription, check it out.
– … Here is this part
Choi Mi-hwa was an excellent editor, as expected.
There were times when she told Seo Joo-hwan something he hadn’t thought of, and she never missed a single epitaph. She also helped portray the psychology of a female character who felt awkward for him as a man.
Even now, she has clearly released the parts that were caught in her unconscious.
“Big. Beauty, too.”
After a short consultation, the frustrating part was resolved.
Originally, Seo Joo-hwan tended to worry alone rather than seek opinions from others. It was because if I listened to her clumsy thoughts and thoughts of her, it seemed that she would lose her balance and be swayed, but Choi Mi-hwa’s advice to her was an exception.
(B): Thank you. I’ll fix it like that.
(Choi Mi-hwa): If you fix it, show me!
(Me): Yes
(Choi Mi-hwa): Write quickly, writing slave. Get to work Hassan!
(Choi Mi-hwa): (Rabbit emoji holding a carrot and threatening)
The rabbit taps the floor with its foot and knocks the carrot into the palm of its hand like a stick.
What kind of emoticons are so dynamic.
Seo Joo-hwan laughed at the thought of her asking her to release the next episode quickly.
“Looks like you’re okay now.”
After that day, Choi Mi-hwa was quite awkward with him. I didn’t see her her face her, but I could feel it from her her KakaoTalk message her.
However, he is a writer and Choi Mi-hwa is his PD.
There was a situation where I had no choice but to keep in touch, and the awkwardness gradually disappeared.
In the first place, as a typewriter addict, she had no choice but to contact him first because of her will her to see the stockpile of ‘Master of Possession’in advance. Now, it seems like they have given up on the issue of titles and short words.
“OMG. I wrote everything.”
Thanks to her advice to her, I was able to fix the snag in no time.
I was going to send her corrections to Choi Mi-hwa, but she saw two things that she couldn’t see.
Soon after checking the message, Seo Ju-hwan’s eyes widened.
[Class of 2016, Alternative University group chat room]
[Lee Jung-hoon]
“How did this hyung send Kakao Talk?”
Let’s say the alternative university is like that. Although he is a returning student, it was not unusual for him to be invited to the class of 16 group chat room as he was a freshman.
But how did Lee Jung-hoon, who was in the army, send KakaoTalk? The use of smartphones will be solved in 20 years.
“Did you take your vacation ahead of schedule?”
He confirmed Lee Jung-hoon’s Kakao Talk.
[Lee Jung-hoon]
– How are you?
– Oh, this is a mophone, so don’t call me.
“Aha. This hyung got this locker.”
Knowing the circumstances, he giggled.
The 4th company he was in is a small company. Because of this, it received less attention from the officers, and since it was located on the third floor, the cell phone locker was separated from other companies.
Thanks to this, it was easy to secretly use the cell phone, and in order to use it, the old seniors made a lot of spare keys in the storage box. And that spare key was still handed down to the seniors of the 4th company.
The person who inherited the spare key used to play the morph phone knowingly or unknowingly when he was in his later years.
He didn’t really need to because he was exercising in his later years.
[Lee Jung-hoon]
– You handed over the chief of staff award?
– I’ll give you a word in advance. Are you always out of the blue?
– Anyway, thank you. It seemed that I was the only one receiving it, so I gave the cold weather reward I received last time to Seok-gyu.
– Oh, I’m going on vacation on the 20th. See you soon clear the time
– In return for the reward, my brother burns it on Friday.
– Hit the grand slam home run. I’m looking forward to it.
A hearty smile appeared on Seo Joo-hwan’s face after confirming Lee Jung-hoon’s Kakao Talk.
“I remember.”
It is worthwhile to transfer the award. We are already looking forward to Friday.
Next, he checked the 16th class chat room.
[Class of 16 at Alternative University]
(Jung-gi Baek): Nice to meet you freshmen. I am overworked in my 2nd year. As everyone knows, there is an entrance ceremony on February 23rd. In addition to the simple entrance ceremony, we are going to tell you how to register for classes and the university life you will be living in the future, so make sure to attend. If you check KakaoTalk, I will reply.
(Lee Soo-hyun): I see! Thank you!
(Kim Hana): I see.
(Lee Seok-chan): I see.
(Jeong Ha-yeon): I see.
……
….
Except for the notice, only the answer that I knew was coming up. Maybe it’s because it’s a chatroom that’s just been created, so the freshmen don’t chat with each other.
Well, there are seniors who are uncomfortable with it, so it’s probably like that. Later, if you make a separate chat room, or if the butcher leaves, you will start talking.
By the way, it’s a butcher… Seo Joo-hwan frowned at the dim memory of him.
“There was this child.”
He didn’t cause a lot of friction, but he wasn’t a guy with good memories either.
First of all, the way you talk is annoying. Even though the people in the chat room were freshmen, they were already talking nonsense. What would you do if there were people older than you?
“Ah, he was the one who gave a damn about his student number his.”
A guy who never went to the military really liked jockey games.
There is no need to point this out now.
“Don’t just yell at me.”
It doesn’t fit your personality to step forward and cause conflict. He was a guy I didn’t like, but it wasn’t even a big enough feeling to call it resentment.
However, if he was touched first, he wouldn’t even bother to put up with it.
“Anyway, it’s college again.”
When he is invited to a Kakao Talk room, it starts to feel real.
For a moment, Seo Joo-hwan remembered his previous life as an assassin and shook his head.
It’s different from back then.
He has grown taller, lost weight, has no trauma, and his self-esteem his has increased. There he does n’t worry about money, so he can go without worrying about his grades.
Everything was different from before his return.
“Let’s get rid of the bad guys.”
I wonder if this time I can spend a campus life full of dreams and hopes.
I was starting to get a little excited.
*
The next morning.
Seo Joo-hwan left the house to exercise.
“There is not much time left until the blessing period.”
There were only 15 days left for both the Dream Demon and Hellchang’s blessings. In the meantime, he received a lot of benefits, but thinking about disappearing made me feel sad.
“Lucy, will this happen later?”
[It will happen when the level goes up. I can’t tell you what level it is.]
“Well. Does it also appear in the item draw?”
[Yes. Probability is a secret.]
“I’ll have to level up to use it as a confirmation.”
As the name suggests, the desire system absorbs and grows various desires. It was important not to simply collect a lot of LPs, but to absorb various desires. That desire could have been Seo Ju-hwan’s own or someone else’s.
“As expected, the gym should be close.”
Reborn Fitness in Anyang is also 10 minutes away from home.
As soon as I got used to taking a membership card and entering, I saw people exercising as always.
Today is the day to receive Petey.
Trainer Lim Soo-hee, whom he had become quite close to, saw him and said hello.
“Hello, Joo-hwan. Did you come early today?”
“Because it’s a habit to go leisurely at the appointment time.”
This was also a habit created because of the misfortune before the regression. It has become a habit to leave 20 or 30 minutes early because there are many cases where it is delayed due to unexpected events even if it departs on time.
“Ho Ho. It’s a good habit. It is important to be diligent in exercise.”
Lim Soo-hee shakes her head, saying that it is the mindset of a correct athlete.
Seo Joo-hwan shrugged his shoulders. He was a man who was truly passionate about sports.
“Come to think of it, did you say that Joo-hwan is a college student?”
“Yes.”
“Will classes start soon?”
“Yes?”
“Well. Even if the semester starts, will you continue to exercise?”
“Uh… I do not know?”
“You don’t want to come out? Do muscles lose quickly if you don’t exercise regularly? Muscle loss.”
“Did you lose muscle so easily?”
Health people live with muscle loss half-seriously and half-jokingly, but as far as he knows, muscle loss doesn’t come easily. If you’re really trained to the limit, you don’t know because there are a lot of muscles to lose, but on the contrary, beginners know that they did less because they didn’t have a lot of muscles to lose.
However, Lim Soo-hee resolutely nodded his head.
“Then! Especially Joo-hwan, people like you who haven’t exercised in a while fall into it quickly.”
“Well. I’ll keep going as long as I can. But I’m not sure because it’s my first college life.”
“Ugh. It’s because I’m really very sorry. Juhwan-ah, you are truly a natural body, so if you keep working hard, I think you will be able to compete in competitions within a few years.”
“Haha. The contest is… My goal is fashion muscle.”
Seo Joo-hwan scratched his eyes as if in trouble. He had no intention of going to the competition at all.
It wasn’t that he had any objection to his big, thick muscles. Of course, muscles that were burdensome enough to explode were not recommended, but that was out of the question as it would require an enormous amount of time and money to invest your entire life even with medication.
Then he would have to go to the natural competition held in Korea, but he was very uncomfortable to participate in the natural competition.
‘Actually, it’s like doing legal doping.’
『Helchang’s Blessing』, Which is still being applied, was a doping that was more effective than most medicines.
With the normalization of karma, many changes occurred in the body, but would it have been possible to make such a big change in such a short period of time without the blessing?
No, absolutely impossible.
It was an insult to other natural health people for him to enter the gym after using the blessing.
At least Seo Ju-hwan thought so.
For the same reason, he had no intention of stepping into not only fitness but also sports such as ball games, boxing, and competitions where he trampled others to compete for rankings, such as UFC martial arts.
‘Writing… Just because I’m doing well doesn’t mean I’m suppressing others. And this isn’t doping, it’s talent.’
It may not be different from the big picture, but this was the last line set by Seo Joo-hwan.
Lim Soo-hee nodded slowly with an expression dripping with regret at his words.
“Sorry…. Yes. But if you continue to exercise, your thoughts may change. Tell me then I will help you with all my might.”
“Haha. Thank you.”
Instead of denying it, Seo Joo-hwan expressed his gratitude.
What you shouldn’t do anyway.
I said this, but I was sorry for repeatedly refusing.
At that time, Trainer Lim Soo-hee, who was regretting it, approached and said with a playful expression.
“But until when are you going to speak up? We were supposed to be friends.”
“Haha….”
During her PT her, Lim Soo-hee never revealed her age her, but she asked a while ago how old she was, so she said she was around 25, and she jokingly said the same thing as before. .
‘Hey, sister. Let’s take care of our conscience. You and me are 7 years apart.’
Of course, in terms of their age before returning, there were more of them.
‘Should I let go?’
We are getting closer, but the difference between talking and not talking is bigger than I thought.
After thinking about it, Seo Ju-hwan said playfully.
“Sister… It’s not, but she’s an older sister, but she’s a bit like a friend, so I’ll put my words aside. Are you fine?”
He said to let go, but he confirmed one more time. There are people who don’t like it if you let it go right away.
“Then. What I said to let go.”
Fortunately, Lim Soo-hee smiled and nodded her head.
“Then, shall I prepare something?”
“Yes.”
Saying that, I turned around… After thinking about it, Lim Soo-hee turned her head halfway towards him and said.
“Would you get scolded if I called you sister once more?”
It’s scary to say it softly with a smile on my face.
Is this the spirit of a woman who has reached the age of 30?
Seo Joo-hwan answered with respect without even realizing it.
“… Yes.”
“Half words.”
“Yes.”
I was wrong, sister.
