Chapter 72 – Education
#072.
“Lee Cho-rin? Do you have anything to say?”
“No. No, it’s just that I’m bored because I want to be alone. Were you rude?”
“It’s not like that. Please sit here.”
“Thank you.
Chorin lightly approached and placed her butt on the chair across from Gaon.
The smiles they make while facing each other are dazzling. The sunbeams from her window made her face even brighter.
For some reason, Chorin, who rested her chin on her palm and looked down at her garden, suddenly asked.
“Gaon, do you have an ideal type?”
“… Yes?”
When I asked the question again, Chorin turned her head and met her eyes. Her emerald eyes seemed to pierce his heart like daggers.
She seems to be face to face.
Straight and desperate eyes that do not allow lies look at him.
“It’s just that Lady Aris seems to have a lot of interest in Mr. Gaon. Hayeon also follows Gaon well. In fact, the fact that I secretly met… ?”
“It can’t be, can it? Lady Aris is a child, and Ha-yeon Joo is my disciple. A master cannot touch his pupil. Above all, I have no interest in dating at all.”
“… Is that so?”
It was a very surprising face.
As if she had heard something unexpected, Chorin had a complex expression mixed with strange emotions.
Power drains from her eyes.
“Yes. Any mixture of private feelings between master and disciple severely undermines the relationship. I never do anything like that.”
Watching Gaon firmly answer, Chorin narrowed her eyes. She drew a faint smile on her lips and she denied his words.
“Never… La. There are no absolutes in this world. Gaon.”
“But that doesn’t happen.”
“If you say that, I understand. Sorry. I’m a bit interested in dating other people.”
“It’s okay. Lee Cho-rin is a young lady in her prime.”
She is 23 years old. She is in her prime of youth.
It was only natural that he was interested in other people’s relationships.
However, Chorin burst into laughter at Gaon’s remark.
“Pu-huh! Mr. Gaon is really strange. What you just said sounded like an old man. I know?”
“…”
To say he looked like an old man, actually, it wouldn’t be strange to be called that when all his ages before returning were added together. But she was never nice to hear.
When Gaon was silent, Chorin shook her head and said.
“Sorry. I won’t ask you any really embarrassing questions.”
“I would like you to do that.”
With that, the conversation ended.
She wondered if she had come all the way to the room just to ask this, but she didn’t think it through.
For now, she was just enjoying a short break.
Time passed without any conversation.
Flow and flow, when five minutes had passed, Chorin got up from her chair.
“It’s been 10 minutes. Come on down. Ha-yeon will be waiting for you.”
“I should have left earlier, but I forgot. Let’s go.”
Gaon got up from her chair, returned her to her original state, and left the room.
Awkward silence. But not uncomfortable silence. While only the footsteps of the two pairs quietly echoed down the stairs, they came down to the first floor and found Ha-yeon sitting on the sofa.
As soon as she saw the two of them, she jumped up and approached with a smile.
“Master! Chorin sister! Came?”
“Sorry. I must have waited a long time.”
“Sorry! Are you late?”
“No. Are you okay. Rather sit here. I love the sofa!”
Saying it was nothing, Hayeon, waving her brown ponytail, shouted vigorously as she slammed the sofa. Even the two of us watching that look feel like the tension is rising.
Gaon and Chorin turned their heads and looked at each other without asking anyone first, then sat down next to Hayeon with a faint smile on one side and a smile on the other side that was so bright that even the sun seemed to fade.
As soon as he sat down, the gazes of the two women focused on Gaon. He opened his mouth at the will that was conveyed even without words.
“For the time being, I am staying here to develop my personal strength. Lee Cho-rin, learn magic. Joo Ha-yeon, you will learn the basics of spearmanship from me. Do you have any questions?”
Immediately upon being asked a question, Chorin raised her hand and said,
“Once I know. But what about Gaon? Will it be okay while teaching Ha-yeon?”
“That’s right! What about Master?”
It seems a bit shallow.
I didn’t show it on purpose to hide the regression, but it’s not enough to make them worry.
Killing the prisoners this time didn’t seem like a big deal to them. Or, it was more memorable that I became a wreck while defeating them.
Gaon replied, thinking that he should work a little harder to raise his level.
“I know. Above all, once you have taught the basics, then you have to do it on your own. From then on, I will do individual training.”
While teaching the basics, if the talent is clear and trustworthy, I plan to pass on rubella.
After that, you’ll have plenty of time to focus on mastering the skills you’ve already learned for a while. In fact, what he lacks right now is physical growth and mana, but it was right to say that he was almost finished in terms of technology.
As if his thoughts were revealed, Chorin also erased his worries.
“If you say that, I will believe you. So how long do you train?”
“It is one month. After a month, I plan to go to the Devil’s Palace to check my progress. I am just thinking about it.”
“Aha! I must work hard and become strong! I don’t want to disappoint Master.”
“Yes, work hard. Because I won’t see you.”
In order to carry out the plan, Ha-yeon must grow to the point where she will not get in the way. Then the intensity of training is bound to be strong.
Despite Gaon’s warning, Hayeon jumped up to greet him and pulled his forearm.
“Then let’s go! To be honest, I wanted to learn spearmanship as soon as possible! Are you okay?”
“… Okay. Let’s go. Then Lee Cho-rin, let’s go.”
“Oh, already? Uh, um… All right. I need to go to my room too. Let’s go together!”
After all, training requires preparation. And Chorin also had the magic book in the room, so eventually all three of them headed to the second floor together.
“Do you intend to stay in the room, Lee Cho-rin?”
“Yes. Until dinner.”
“All right. Then, Joo Ha-yeon, take the spear you received earlier and come down to the first floor.”
“Yes!”
After a brief conversation, they headed to their respective rooms. After putting on the leather armor, Gaon took the training wooden spear he had obtained from Lijenny and left the room.
“Oh, Master!”
“Let’s go down.”
I was in such a hurry that Ha-yeon came out before Ga-on. Waving her hand saying how long it had been since they broke up with her, he took her out of her villa in rejoicing.
This is a clearing near the forest at the back of the garden. It was wide enough to cover the entire villa, and it was well-trodden flat, so it was perfect for training.
Gaon rolled his foot a few times and kicked the floor, then nodded and looked at Hayeon.
“Ju Ha-yeon, I’ll lightly walk around before learning spearmanship.”
“Yes! I am confident in running.”
“Okay, then stretch first.”
Before running, Gaon and Chorin stretched their joints to make them more flexible, and then started running around the mansion.
He said he was confident in running, and his running form and breathing control were also excellent. It shows how strong the lower body is that it moves elastically as if bouncing, but does not shake at all.
The basis of all martial arts comes from the lower body.
If the lower body is not supported, no matter how excellent the other physical abilities are, it is useless. Ha-yeon had a very good condition to learn something.
She did that and she only had to spin for about 30 minutes.
It’s been two months and weeks since she left Earth. During that time, they worked hard to accumulate karma and strengthen their physical abilities, and they were not tired at all.
However, as long as he was a human, sweat flowed naturally and his body became appropriately heated.
“Huh—this should have been enough. Then pick up the window.”
“Yes!”
When I handed over one of the two spears that had been placed on the wall of the building before running, Ha-yeon hurriedly approached and accepted it, then looked up at it with wide eyes.
Then, when I pointed to one side of the clearing, I sprinted and stood there.
“Before teaching, I want to know your exact condition. Go ahead with all your might.”
“Yes, haaaaa!”
Perhaps that was her original personality, Ha-yeon did not hesitate when Gaon called her to attack and stabbed the spear with all her might.
From what I heard the other day, it was said that he definitely has the unique ability of one-point breakthrough. When you charge with a target, all your movements are accelerated?
Correspondingly, the speed was great, but the problem was that the basic posture and the way to hold the spear were wrong.
Gaon lightly bounced the stabbed spear away using Ran’s trick.
Damn-!
“Oh!”
“What are you doing? Are you going to die in a daze just because you missed one attack?”
“No!”
Ha-yeon, who hesitated for a while at Gaon’s complete stop, shook her head and took a more cautious stance. She then circled around, looking for an opening.
However, it is impossible to find gaps in Gaon at the level of Hayeon. Unless it’s a deliberate act.
“Suck!”
Was it a judgment that it was okay to run from behind? Ha-yeon turned and looked for an opening in her, then attacked her from behind to the left and brandished her spear.
The back, which can be clearly called a square. Among them, the judgment to aim for the left side that did not hold a spear and run. Very good.
Great but… That was too much.
Gaon exaggerated the flying spear and avoided it by a piece of paper, then hit him on the knee as it passed by.
“Evil!”
In any case, the wound can be healed immediately if you ask Chorin. The spear thrown under such judgment had enough strength to make Ha-yeon collapse by folding her hamstrings in an instant.
Ha-yeon sat down, screaming at the pain inflicted on her from her blind spot without a moment to perceive. The crook of her knee was red and it looked like it would bruise after a while.
However, Gaon did not have any sympathy for such an appearance and just looked down. Seeing that gaze, Hayeon bit her lip and pulled her body up.
“Joo Ha-yeon, aiming at the blind spot was great. However, she tends to put all her energy into one attack too. Think about what happens when an attack misses. It seems that it has developed this habit as its unique ability is specialized for single blows, which means that if the attack misses, a fatal weakness is exposed. Be more careful.”
“… Sorry. I will do it right.”
Ha-yeon apologized if she had any realizations about Ga-on’s point, and then took a deep breath and relieved the tension in her body.
With each repetition of her breath, the excessive force that had been exerted on her body was released, and she felt as light as when her movements were running.
She hovered around her again, and Ha-yeon, who was looking for an opening, rushed in and stabbed her with a spear.
I’m sure I didn’t make the mistake of putting all my energy into a single attack like I did just now.
Without losing her body balance, she deflected the rapidly thrusting spear using Gaon’s Ran and my tricks in a restraining manner.
Just before their weapons met each other, Gaon’s wrist twisted and the rotating spear blade smoothly brushed off Ha-yeon’s spear and strongly shook it off.
Gaon didn’t particularly counterattack, but continued to let off attacks. She gave up her soul once, so he doesn’t have to give Ha-yeon her pain.
After about 10 minutes passed, her breathing became rough. Sweat dripped from her forehead and dripped onto her chin, dripping onto the floor.
Even in the midst of this, the two spears continued to intersect and spread a clear sound of blows. At that time, when the workshop came and went several times, her spear of Hayeon skillfully rotated right before it met.
Whirk-
Gaon’s spear slid along the shaft of her spear as it rotated. There, Ha-yeon tries to forcefully shake him off and induce his gap, but there is no way she will be defeated so easily.
With a delicate sense, she rotates and retrieves her spear along the direction in which Ha-yeon’s spear rotates, and comes out of the airflow naturally.
Ha-yeon let out a bewildered sound as his conversion skills went back to nothing.
“What?”
Looking at Gaon’s window and her own window alternately makes it seem as if she is asking why she is fine. He let out a smirk at the rather cute reaction and said, putting his spear over his shoulder.
“Good job. I never thought I would be able to follow it to that extent after seeing it with my own eyes.”
“Ahaha… But in the end, the technology failed.”
“No, that was just my response. If it were other people, I would have suffered without knowing anything.”
“Is that so? I’m glad then. Then I’ll go!”
As if she had no time to rest, Ha-yeon took her posture again. Gaon shook her head at the momentum of stabbing her with a spear at any moment.
“No, that’s enough. Because I know what level it is. It’s important to start correcting your posture now.”
“Ah, yes! Then please.”
Gaon straightened his aiming posture and pointed the spear blade toward the floor. Gaon straightened the spear and moved closer.
