‘The implementation went well.’

The training room in the stadium where we found out we had advanced to the main tournament.

He nodded while observing the three special forces commanders gathered in a row in front of him.

Each commander is armed with a sword, spear, and shield.

‘I made it a bit hastily, but… the design itself was done in advance, so there were no problems.’

The tournament preliminaries were held three times. All three times, the team sent out a command and won, advancing to the main tournament.

This is to show that I am good at writing Taesan, and to test the commander’s skills.

The performance was satisfactory.

A body made up of monsters of the 5th tier or higher. A complete and suitable ideology. From the manufacturing process to the operation, even the Taesan Mountain has been added.

This alone would make a good commander, but I added one more step.

Artificial skill.

So, is it possible to instill skills separately and utilize them with the power of knowledge?

‘It may not be unique, but it has enough skill.’

The result was a half success.

Even without any separate manipulation, this commander shows off his top-notch skills. He can easily slaughter even the most advanced superhumans or monsters.

In addition, it goes as far as to conduct a self-judgment strait attack.

My own judgment was through Taesan, but I confirmed that it was linked to skill.

You can tell by looking at the fact that all three games were won with only the commander. The last two games were also won with only one commander each.

‘It was amazing that Aiden caught one.’

Even though he adjusted his weight class, he was able to capture a commander with that level of skill in a match? He pretended it wasn’t happening on the field, but it was really surprising.

Compared to last year’s Aiden, this is a change of a world-class level. If I were to fight last year’s me, I would probably win even if it was a 100 to 1 fight.

… It’s funny that I even say that.

anyway.

‘With this, we can greatly increase the commanding force.’

Right now, there are only three special commanders, but if we steadily increase their number in the future, they will be sufficient power for a grand battle.

-… We will be of much more help than these filthy things.

While I was nodding my head, a strange thought came to me.

It was the idea of Terramor.

I flapped my wings and smiled bitterly.

‘Of course I think so too. But it can’t be a bad thing since there is a lot of power available, right?’

-That’s true, but… I’m concerned about the way you touch something unclean with your jade hands.

‘The gilding is so thick…’

Ok-su-ra-ni? This is the first time I learned that there is an expression like that other than Ok-che.

‘The spirits’ unique hatred for evil spirits is the same in Terramordo.’

Rather, it seems that the clearer the ego is, the more it is like that.

Other spirits were similar.

The expression on the face became a bit strange as I thought of the innocent spirits of the world starting a fight just by looking at the commander.

-Tiring

At that moment the alarm rang.

[Contact: Lee Ji-yeon]

[▷Lee Ji-yeon: Junior]

[▷Lee Ji-yeon: Can I go now?]

‘ah.’

Even if I don’t check all the contents, I can understand what it means.

I straightened my clothes and spread purification magic around me. My wings fluttered and changed into wing clothes…

The three commanders who were standing there looking embarrassed after finishing the check. I was going to put them in, but I thought about the status of the guests and just left them.

– Junior, shall we go in?

[Yes, come in]

Not long after, a guest arrived.

The door to the training room opened and Lee Ji-yeon came in first.

A normal student uniform. Green winged clothes floating. Jiyeon Lee’s face, who was smiling faintly while looking at me, was slightly tense.

As I nodded in greeting, Lee Ji-yeon moved to the side.

An old man came in after Lee Ji-yeon.

His hair is gray, and his hands and face are wrinkled. But his prayers are not shallow, but rather have a sense of weight.

His clear, gray-white eyes turned to me. For a moment, the old man opened his eyes wide, then a natural smile appeared on his lips and he bowed politely.

“I am Lee Seon-hyeong, the general manager of Taesan, although I am lacking in many things. This is my first greeting to you, Master Lee Ha-yul.”

[Oh, yes. Hello…]

Taesan Family’s General Manager, Lee Seon-hyeong.

There was no surprise because I had heard about his visit in advance.

There were many reasons to visit.

To meet Lee Ji-yeon, who is working as a proxy for the household. Also, to see the unidentified Taesan Manifestation before the meeting…

“Please don’t bow down to this old lady.”

When we bowed our heads, Lee Seon-hyeong slowly shook his head.

At those words, he slightly straightened his back. Lee Sun-hyung kept smiling and lowered his head slightly more than before.

“I sent you a notice in advance through Miss, but I am concerned that I may have disturbed you at such an important time. ”

[No, not at all. The preliminaries are over, and there is plenty of time to prepare for the main event.]

“Thank you for saying that. ”

I observed this line while shaking my head.

‘I saw this person in the original too.’

The position of Taesan’s general manager was the same as in the original work.

As Lee Ji-yeon said, contrary to her self-proclaimed old lady, she is an outstanding superhuman.

He is the head of the Gyeophwa family, the mother-in-law… no, he is not related to the head of the family like Jiyeon Choi.

Instead, he is a person who has been loyal to the family since his days as the head of the household and has been trusted, and after retirement, his work ability was recognized and he was promoted to the position of general manager.

“The teacher is old, but he is very mature. Sometimes he even gives training lessons.”

“Hehe, he’s not in his prime, but he’s still a superhuman. He’s not at the point where he walks around with a cane anymore.”

“I saw you teaching kids with a cane.”

“Oh, please don’t embarrass me in front of the master.”

Lee Seon-hyeong smiled faintly and shook his head at Lee Ji-yeon’s joking remark.

Soon, his gaze turned to me, but then landed on the three commanders standing blankly to one side.

“Hoo… ”

A small elastic sound escaped Lee Seon-hyeong’s mouth. Gray-white eyes studied the commander.

“That’s… the commander who raised Mt. Taesan.”

[Yes, that’s right]

It’s a look that you can recognize at a glance.

Indeed, the person who created Hanpyeong Ecological Mountain was invited, and the unique atmosphere it exudes is too obvious.

“Can I have your permission to eat?”

[Of course]

It was originally made to be shown to the relevant officials. After permission was granted, Lee Sun-hyung inspected the commanders one by one.

“Uhh… ”

As he looked at the commander with serious eyes, the surprise on Lee Seon-hyeong’s face grew larger.

“I’ve heard rumors, but to think it’s this complete… ”

[rumor?]

When a question mark was raised above her head, Lee Ji-yeon giggled and responded.

“On the way here. Rumor has it that a junior beat up some of the cadets as a commander.”

[Senior… Your expression is too malicious.]

“It was that overwhelming.”

Lee Ji-yeon shrugged her shoulders.

Meanwhile, Lee Seon-hyeong, who had been observing the commander closely, took a few steps back.

“… This old man has no right to give advice. Such precision and perfection. Implementation… Really amazing. ”

The surprise contained in the gaze directed this way is quite great.

‘I guess I can say that he’s pretty good at writing.’

He nodded inwardly and pointed at Lee Ji-yeon.

[Thanks to my senior’s help]

Commander Production Engineer Lee Ji-yeon also helped.

Of course, the power of knowledge is the power of inserting skills, but strengthening the commander’s body is a different matter.

“ I feel guilty about claiming that the system helped me a lot. The performance was already great. Especially the suitability and completeness of the commander were ridiculous… ”

[It actually helped a lot]

But Lee Ji-yeon kept insisting on being humble and belittling her achievements. I couldn’t help but feel embarrassed at that.

[dissatisfaction]

[Unable to communicate]

“Ahaha, I got it. I won’t say anything else. It helped me a lot.”

Only then did Lee Ji-yeon stop her rebuttal. The hand that came to her face pressed down on her cheek, forcing all the air out.

“… Ah.”

Lee Ji-yeon suddenly shrugged her shoulders.

I was curious about something so I observed it, and before I knew it, the commander had already been examined and I was looking at the delay.

“Ahem.”

“Do you have a sore throat?”

“Nothing.”

Lee Ji-yeon, who let out a cough, lowered her hand slightly. Lee Seon-hyeong, who smiled faintly, came closer again.

And then out of the blue, he bowed his head to me again. Deeper than before.

“Actually, I wanted to put aside official business and meet you in person to express my gratitude.”

[yes?]

As I tilted my head, Lee Seon-hyeong, who was smiling brightly, looked at Lee Ji-yeon. Her gray-white eyes seemed to be gazing at the present and the past at the same time.

“As someone who has taken care of you since you were little, your bad habit of lowering yourself has always been a concern to me.”

‘ah.’

The inferiority complex and sense of entitlement that Lee Ji-yeon has had since childhood.

Although it was not a good feeling to have, it was a particularly bothersome feeling for the Taesan Manifestor, who placed importance on self-esteem and pride.

“But recently, that concern has been resolved.”

Lee Seon-hyeong’s gaze returned to me.

“The young lady stopped being humble and started to have confidence and pride. It was all after meeting Master Lee Ha-yul.”

[… That wasn’t my help. Senior Lee Ji-yeon did it all herself.]

“Haha. That’s similar to what you said a little while ago.”

[That]

“Big.”

… If you just look at the tone, it seems like that.

But this time, the engine didn’t help. I stabbed Lee Ji-yeon, who was secretly laughing, with my wings.

“There’s more to be thankful for. The twin-headed dragon. You personally finished off the evil spirit that the Lord of the Household could not handle. And in the process, you saved Miss Lee Ji-yeon… From a public standpoint, this is a bigger favor.”

[I am the one who received the help… and I have already received more than enough in compensation.]

“I didn’t really give you anything… Ah, ah, I got it.“

The mouth of Age of the Winged Clothes, which had been poking at me, was bitten.

“Hahaha. Your relationship looks very close.”

[oh]

Lee Sun-hyung let out a laugh. His gaze alternately looked at my winged clothes and the winged clothes Lee Ji-yeon was wearing.

At that sight, Eijiyeon rolled her eyes and shrugged her shoulders.

“… It’s just… Since I often spend time with my junior… Naturally… ”

“Definitely. It looks really natural with it wrapped around your waist.”

“Yes?”

Lee Ji-yeon blinked. Her gaze, which had been thinking for a moment, suddenly landed on my waist.

Before I knew it, several layers of green winged clothing were wrapped around my waist.

In addition, an arm was raised as if pulling the waist. Jiyeon’s eyes opened wide as if she hadn’t noticed.

“Oh, wait a minute. This is… uh… I have some circumstances… ”

Lee Seon-yeong burst into laughter.

His expression was a little different from before.

***

The main event was held the day after the preliminaries.

I arrived at the players’ waiting room on time and waited, and when it was time, I started walking.

As soon as I came out, many voices poured out.

The stands were packed, as expected.

It was several times larger than the preliminary competition venue, but it was still the same. This was because the finals brought in not only students and faculty, but also external stakeholders.

‘hmm.’

There were some people I recognized. I went up to the stadium after the game, thinking I should say hello.

The opponent came up from the opposite side.

“Are you here? We met right at the main event.”

“Yeah.”

Coincidentally, my first opponent in the main tournament was Yeonhwa.

I nodded my head and stroked my spear at Yeonhwa’s words, who had the sword on her shoulder.

“… Wow. Did anyone else see it?”

Yeonhwa winked to one side. Finally, Nango nodded while checking.

“Yes. Can we go and say hello together after we’re done?“

“Okay, let’s do that.”

Yeonhwa, who was smiling and holding up her sword, suddenly blinked. She seemed to be thinking about something, but then she suddenly smiled mischievously.

“Ha-yul-ah. You fought against A-rin in last year’s finals, right?”

“Yes.”

“You’re going to be there and be with me all day?”

“Uh… Yes… ”

That was certainly the case.

As I nodded, recalling last year, Yeonhwa raised the corners of her lips.

“Then shall we make a bet?”

“Are you sure?”

“Yeah, since we’re doing it, why don’t we have fun doing it?”

“… Well, it won’t be as easy as last year.”

At Yeonhwa’s words, I opened my shoulders wide.

Last year’s interest rate and today’s interest rate are completely different entities.

Even in a fight where we watch each other like last year, he is not a weakling who can be easily subdued.

When I showed my confidence, Yeonhwa smiled brightly.

“If I win, Harul will naturally grant my wish.”

“Yes.”

“If Harul wins… My wish will be granted.”

“Yes, like that… Yes?”

“Okay. You accepted it?”

“?”

The head that had been nodding reflexively stopped and tilted to one side.

If Yeonhwa wins, Yeonhwa’s wish will come true.

If I win, I can make Yeonhwa’s wish come true…

Something is very strange.

“No, where is that─”

[Start evaluation!]

The words were cut off by the signal and shouts from the sky.

A frown formed on my face.

-It’s fatal.

Naturally, he winked one eye, sending a lot of noise.

As he tried to calm down, he pursed his lips and clasped his hands together.

Kukukung! Three pillars rose from the ground. The pillars collapsed and the three special commanders, armed with their weapons, stood up.

‘Attack first.’

The three commanders kicked the ground at Yeonhwa, who was standing still and looking this way.

The commander with the large shield took the lead. Behind him, the commanders wielding swords and spears followed on the left and right.

“After.”

Yeonhwa let out a short breath and lowered her sword.

The moment the wide shield was about to strike, Yeonhwa’s body instantly penetrated the square.

The shield did not react, but the response was swift.

The commander in the lead naturally turns his back and swings his blunt weapon, while the spears and swords following behind stab him.

A method of gradually applying pressure while blocking each arm’s retreat route.

It’s a classic tactic.

The combined power of the low-level spirits, both skilled and skilled, can overwhelm even the most advanced cadets.

It didn’t fit.

Quick and precise movements avoided the attacks. The attacks that could not be avoided were cleared away by the sword that moved like raindrops, creating a path.

Although he is not even using his sword properly, let alone his magic, he is easily able to withstand the combined attacks of the three commanders.

Yeonhwa, who had been responding from where she could, took a deep breath. For a moment, the sword became blurry.

The great shield was split vertically.

The head of the blunt weapon that had been struck down immediately flew away. The commander, who had lost his weapon, jumped backwards, and spears and swords rushed in from both sides.

The sword of re-enlightenment became blurred. Soon, the afterimage of the sword split in two and drew left and right.

The glue that I had worked so hard to repair the day before was completely split. The long shaft was cut off.

Movement that easily defies the laws of physics. It is an extension of the technological series.

It is a skill that has reached a level beyond proficiency.

The commanders, who had lost their weapons in an instant, spread out on the street.

“I don’t want to fight with a sword again.”

Yeonhwa didn’t just leave him alone.

A red health shield wrapped around the blade. Sparks formed on it.

The sparks expanded silently. The avalanche of fire poured out from the center of the sword blade, engulfing the area in all directions.

-Whoooosh!

The shadow of the commander swallowed by the fire rippled, and after a few seconds, it melted into the flames. The fire grew even bigger.

‘No, it’s my special forces commander.’

The set of commanders that took a day or two to make was burned in just 3 seconds.

Of course, it was restored after the game ended, but a strange sense of emptiness pounded in my heart…

Hurrruk!

There was no time to dwell on the futility.

The lotus flower that had burned the commander rushed towards me in a panic.

The enveloping cowardly flower is large and fierce. Its own output is strong, but it has just consumed the life force held by the commander and expanded its size.

Taesan’s technology is not only command. It is also manipulating life and land. It is also a long-term weapon that can be used in close combat.

Of course, burning energy can have a detrimental effect, but there are ways to deal with it.

‘Expression, homogenization.’

I was thinking of going against Taesan, but I changed my mind because I felt that Taesan was used enough in the preliminaries.

The rushing lotus kicked the ground and jumped into the sky. At the same time, a cold wind spread through the ground, freezing it solid, and large ice thorns sprouted up.

“Changhae?”

Yeonhwa furrowed her brows. She straightened her shoulders, which had been hunched for no reason, and stuck the spear, which had been full of water, into the ground.

The water pipe shook. Yeonhwa’s eyebrows furrowed even more before that.

‘Similar expansion capabilities.’

Although it is not yet fully established, it can imitate magic while simultaneously manipulating magical powers.

‘Tsunami.’

A waterfall gushed out from the ground.
