Chapter 255 – 255. Ambush 2
“Okay, just repeat what you did before. Can you do it? Are you feeling okay?”
“Yes. It feels a bit better because of the cold air. Then, shall we give it a try?”
“Yes. All you have to do is run to where Seung-gyu is… I thought the duration was 10 seconds, right?”
“Yes. 10 seconds.”
“Hmm. Then should we turn around and come here? No. Let’s just keep the conditions the same. Don’t forget to raise your hand when you get there.”
“Yes, I understand.”
“Then… Get ready… Land!”
Minjun ran, and the speed was truly unbelievable.
“1.8 seconds?”
If 50 meters is 1.8 seconds, 100 meters are 3.6 seconds.
Fuck… The speed has doubled?
Doesn’t this make sense? It goes up twice?
So you’re saying the speed is 100 kilometers per hour?
Hehe… This is really fast?”
“That’s right. I was surprised. Minjun came to me in an instant.”
Minjun and Seunggyu came up to me and talked, and I showed them the stopwatch.
“His speed… Is 100 kilometers per hour.”
“Yes!?”
“Huh!?”
“It means running at the speed of a car on the highway.”
“Wow… I’m crazy.”
“This… Is it really amazing?”
“You know what’s even funnier? He’s only at intermediate level.”
“Ah! Is that so!?”
“Oh my god… Then if it’s 50 kilos for low level and 100 kilos for intermediate… What about advanced? 150 kilos? 200 kilos?”
“Well, you have to take a picture to find out, right? Is it 50, 100, 150, 200 or 50, 100, 200, 400?”
“4… 400 kilos?”
“I think 400 kilos is too much… 200 is more realistic… No, this is just as absurd.”
“Right? But I think it’s like 200. I don’t know what the proficiency level of the acceleration skills I saw was… But I don’t think it was around 400 per hour.”
“Wait a minute… Minjun’s speed is 100 kilometers per hour?”
“In terms of numbers.”
“So, if Minjun can maintain acceleration for just 4 hours, she can run all the way to Busan.”
“In theory, yes.”
“And if you master it and say 200, it’s 2 hours to Busan?”
“That will happen, right?”
“It should accelerate.”
“I’ll do it next time. And why didn’t you say something about keeping your seat?”
“That’s right… That’s right… It’s a scam.”
“But all skills are like that. Of course, there are some trash skills.”
“Hey… By the way.”
Minjun intervened in the serious conversation between me and Seunggyu. Seunggyu and Jinyoung, who were listening in silence, also look at him.
“At that speed… Can a person withstand it?”
This is a question to consider. But I don’t think it will be a big problem.
“How are you feeling when you run now?”
“Is that because… I ran straight? It was okay. But… I felt a little dizzy.”
“Yes… Motion sickness. It’s possible to get motion sickness. I don’t know if it’s going straight, but if it’s curved or going back and forth, it’s going to be difficult, right?”
“That too… Is it okay to have this with intestines?”
“Looking at your shoes and the soles of your feet are intact, it looks like you’re protected by a skill. If you’re a bastard whose body can’t hold up just by running, they must have some kind of problem. And those who use super strength skills just smashed things with their bare fists. That’s it. If it hadn’t happened, his fist would have been shattered already, right?”
“Oh. I guess so.”
“Okay then… Anyway, the effect has been confirmed.”
Effect of acceleration. Quite good.
The time increased from 5 seconds to 10 seconds. In the end, I think it will go like this: 5, 10, 15, 20?
The speed is also likely to go to 50, 100, 150, or 200. The faster it is, the better.
200 kilometers per hour. It’s a speed that can travel 55 meters per second.
This means that you can get out of the detection range in 2 seconds. Okay. That’s why Jeong Jong-chan was so fast back then.
Of course, he’s already dead.
Isn’t the skill balance too bad? Those guys who made the skills… You’re terrible at doing things.
As for the penalty… There doesn’t seem to be any physical loss, but there seems to be motion sickness anyway.
Then… Am I not able to speed up? Or are you picking up the pace but not able to keep up?
“Ah, Minjun. I’m sorry, but would you like to run one more time?”
“Of course. Shall we do it right away?”
“Yes. Tell me when you’re ready.”
“Anything is possible.”
“Then… Get ready… Land!”
Min-jun ran up to the spot she had marked earlier and raised her hand.
Same time. So is the speed fixed?
Before I knew it, Minjun had returned to my side. I asked him.
“Minjun. Can you slow down the speed when running that thing?”
“Ah… That’s it. It feels like my body is moving according to the speed. It’s not that I’m controlling it.”
“Really? Then the speed is fixed?”
“Yes. If I go faster, I think I might not be able to hit the shots delicately over short distances.”
“Ah. If I run at the speed I want and my max is not 100 kilos, does that mean I’ll always be 100 kilos?”
“Yes.”
It’s definitely a penalty. It means there is no deceleration. Then… It’s not acceleration, is it? Shouldn’t it be called speeding up?
Acceleration is getting faster and faster. Ah… This is the bastard who created the skill. Anyway, you’re a piece of trash.
So, if you delay stopping just a little bit, it means you could crash and die. Or fall to death… Falling…
Anyway, if you don’t get used to it, you’ll end up ruining your own body.
This means that even if I just extend my fist, if a guy with acceleration comes running and hits me, I might fall behind with a stationary punch.
“Minjun.”
“Yes?”
“Does things like object recognition work well?”
“Yes. Fortunately, I think so.”
Still, it looks like there are conscientious safety measures in place. Is that fortunate?
I don’t want to lose her because I couldn’t control her after telling her to learn from her.
If it’s a skill that can destroy you, you shouldn’t be able to learn it no matter how good it is.
So, you need to think carefully about the penalty.
It is natural that the better the skill, the more there is a penalty.
“For now, the experiment is over.”
“Yes. You had a hard time.”
“Then… I’ll just leave.”
“Great. Why didn’t you say that?”
“I’m done with my business, so I should go.”
“Okay… I can’t catch you going… Would you like to talk to me?”
“Huh? A story? Well… Okay.”
After letting Jinyoung and Minjun in, Seunggyu walked with me.
Uh… Where?
The greenhouse I was talking about with Jiyeon earlier.
Seunggyu naturally goes in that direction. What? Did you see him with Jiyeon earlier?
After entering the greenhouse, Seung-gyu stands for a moment and asks me.
“By any chance, did something happen with Jiyeon?”
“Huh? Uh… Did you see it?”
“Oh. There was one?”
“Huh? You didn’t talk about it after seeing it?”
“Huh? What are you looking at?”
“No… I talked to Jiyeon here earlier.”
“Oh… Really? Oh, that’s not true… I brought them here because it was a greenhouse where harvest had finished, and it was quiet.”
“Ah. Is that why you brought Jiyeon here too?”
“Probably so. It’s the most deserted place in the logistics center right now.”
“Uhm…”
Seunggyu is silent for a moment. I asked him that.
“I didn’t even see it, so how did you know there was something going on between me and Jiyeon?”
“Ah. Well… I thought Jiyeon’s expression brightened when we were eating earlier. To be honest, I’ve been a little… Anxious lately.”
“Ah…”
Also… To be a leader, do you have to pay attention to the facial expressions of your members in such detail?
Do all leaders do that? Probably not. I guess it’s because Seung-gyu is a little more considerate, right?
“Well… I don’t know. Furthermore, I think the problem has been resolved to some extent.”
“Okay. Well then, I’m glad. I have one less thing to worry about.”
It seems that Jiyeon’s condition was really serious. If you look at the fact that that talented person even said that he was worried.
But… I think it was quite serious that he tried to kill himself.
“Is that why you came here?”
“Uh. There’s that too… And also…”
“Again?”
Seung-gyu hesitates to speak for a moment.
Why are you taking such a long time?”
“You could say this is my foolishness… Do you remember what we talked about before? That some women live celibate lives?”
“Yes. I remember.”
“Yeonseo and Miyeon. Sigh. It’s really a bit awkward to say this to someone else…”
“I know.”
“What?”
“I know what you’re going to say. I know how the plant sisters look at me. Well, it’s because I planted the seed.”
“Huh?”
“I still feel sorry for them. If my brother feels that way… It must be serious. I understand. I will solve it.”
“Hmm… I’m glad I don’t have to explain it since I know what it is, but… And there’s more.”
“Yes?”
“The future.”
“Ha. I think he knows.”
“Huh? What don’t you know?”
“Because that’s the seed I sowed.”
“What on earth did you do?”
“Uh, that’s a little hard to say… Anyway, I’ll take care of the future as well.”
These are all seeds I sowed.
Especially for the sisters and Mirae, it would have gotten worse due to their charm skill. It’s all my fault. I thought it would get better or something if I just left it out of sight for a while… When I saw it at the restaurant earlier, there was no improvement at all.
In the end, I have to solve it. They tell me to end the decision.
Even if it’s cumbersome and annoying, you have to take responsibility.
“Okay… I’m glad you know something. I hope you can figure it out on your own.”
“Okay. Well… While we’re at it, let’s settle one thing now. Are you coming in? Could you please call your sister over here? I’ll make an excuse for you.”
“Okay… Then I will do that.”
“I’m going to talk to my sister and then go right away.”
“Oh. Do you want to? Then should I say hello in advance now?”
“Okay. See you later.”
“Okay. You too, be careful when you go in. Solve it well.”
“Yes.”
Seung-gyu went in, and I was left alone in the empty greenhouse.
You can see the marks where Ji-yeon rubbed her feet on the floor earlier.
Something like that happened here earlier… Here again.
What kind of greenhouse is this, a greenhouse for counseling and solving problems?
Ha. Uneasy. Women’s hearts are not easy.
This is too much for me, who thought they would just put him to sleep, rape him, and then kill him.
Things are so tangled now… In the end, it is a trace of my clumsy self wandering here and there.
In the end, things I should have dealt with or resolved, but left alone.
Now that I’ve realized it, I need to resolve it for sure.
“Huh?”
“Oh!”
As I was reflecting and regretting inside, a sister came in.
Two women are surprised to see me. I guess I didn’t tell you I was here? When I see you so surprised.
“Are you here?”
“What are you doing here…”
Yeonseo asks me, and Miyeon stands slightly behind her.
What should I say? Really… It’s overwhelming.
“First… I’m sorry.”
I did everything I could to start with apples.
Two women looked puzzled at my apology. That would be absurd. You don’t even know what you’re sorry for.
“Uh… Ugh. I’ve been very indifferent, haven’t I?”
When I said that, the two women’s expressions hardened.
Hmm… What does that mean? Really… I’m really at a loss as to what to say.
First, I’m not sure what these women are thinking.
There must have been amplification due to fascination… I don’t know what I’m feeling right now.
It would be great if you could say something or show a reaction.
Tsk. Ugh. Why are you thinking so complicated? Wouldn’t it be better to just be honest?
