After everyone’s class ended except Arin.

“Arin, are you okay?”

The three people were pacing in front of the training room where Arin was with worried expressions.

Because it was made of high-purity magicite, it was absolutely soundproof, so I couldn’t tell what was going on inside.

It was inevitable that I would be worried just because the training time was getting longer.

“I said I would receive counseling.”

Chae-yoon muttered in a worried voice.

“Because it is a consultation… of course, it may take longer than training.”

Na-hyeon, seeing that Su-a and Chae-yoon were overly worried, sighed softly and spoke.

“There is no way Gilma would have brought a strange person. Everyone is so worried.”

Nahyun’s words were actually 100 times correct.

When the women talked about their training, I realized that they all received training focusing on what was essential to each person.

I was very touched when I learned that the instructor was also considerate of the girls and recruited the most talented people.

And the fact that they were provided with the best instructors and training meant that Arin was also likely to be receiving the best counseling.

Of course, Chaeyun and Suah were aware of that.

“Still, what should I do if I’m worried..”

“That’s right, Arin is a girl who always hides everything and tries to embrace her alone. There are definitely a lot of things piled up.”

“So you need counseling..”

Nahyeon, of course, wasn’t worried about Arin, so she didn’t speak firmly.

She knew very well what kind of person Arin was, and she also knew that she had accumulated a lot because she had watched from the side.

Na-hyeon was shy and timid, and seemed to have no interest in others, but she was more interested in Arin, Chae-yoon, and Su-ah than anyone else.

But that’s why I didn’t think it was a bad thing for the consultation to take a long time.

“It’s better than having a short consultation without being able to say a few words properly.”

Of course, this story assumes that the counselor inside is a proper person.

Nahyeon believed that it would definitely happen.

To them, Geon-woo was a person they could trust.

If she hadn’t been trusted that much, Nahyun would have been even more worried.

“Yes, Nahyun is right. Let’s take some time and wait.”

“Ugh, I understand.”

Nahyun, who usually didn’t talk much, said something to reassure the two in her own way, and it worked better than expected.

“Anyway, was Nahyun okay? Wasn’t it hard because you were shy?”

For now, while waiting for Arin, we decided to talk about what we couldn’t finish talking about before.

“Yes.. The instructor was a good person.”

Of course, since I was shy, it was inevitable that my time with the instructor would be difficult.

Nahyun thought that was something she had to endure.

Moreover, other than that, I could clearly feel that the instructor in charge of Nahyeon was very talented.

Not only was he strong, but his teaching skills were also considerable.

It was also quite a refreshing experience to hear what was said so clearly.

“Wow, Nahyun said to someone she met for the first time that she was a good person! Isn’t this amazing?!”

“Hey, you said it was a man, right? Did you like it?”

Su-ah was the first to make a fuss, followed by Chae-yoon, who spoke teasingly with a sinister smile.

“..Don’t talk nonsense.. You know that’s not what I meant.”

Of course, it was inevitable that Na-hyeon would look at me with disdain.

“Chi~ Nahyun doesn’t taste cute.”

“That’s right~ Nahyun unnie is so cold~”

Nahyun was used to the two people’s teasing.

They were the type of girls who would make fun of anyone at the slightest opportunity, so they were often made fun of.

When the girls were playing pranks like that for a while.

“Thank you for your hard work, Arin. I look forward to seeing you again next time.”

“You worked hard because of me today, really.”

The door to Arin’s training room, where she had been waiting for so long, opened and Arin and Eunjung walked out together.

The two people felt very friendly.

“Then I’ll leave for today.”

After saying hello to Arin, Eun-jeong found the three people waiting outside and gave them a quick hello.

“Arin!”

“Arin unnie!”

Chaeyun and Suah ran out first and hugged Arin.

“Was it okay?”

A beat later, Nahyeon approached Arin and asked, looking at Arin’s eyes, which were swollen from crying.

“Yes, this is my first time receiving counseling like this. It was better than I thought.”

It would be great if the trauma could disappear with just one consultation, but unfortunately, such a miraculous thing did not happen.

But what is certain is that through this counseling, Arin felt that she could move forward.

Now that she knows she doesn’t have to deal with this trauma for the rest of her life, she feels confident that she can move on.

“It’s not just words, I think I’ll be able to use the skill again after a while.”

Because they were the three people who always watched Arin’s anxious side.

Her confident words made me feel touched and my heart was pounding.

“Really, it went well.”

“Yes, really. Arin, it’s okay. Really.”

“You had a hard time. Let’s do better in the future.”

Nahyun also walked towards Arin and gently hugged her.

That embrace is so warm and reassuring.

Arin felt tears welling up again.

“Ha, really. I guess I cried a lot. Are you all going to make me cry again?”

“Cry, cry! What do you think! If you’re sad, you cry!”

Sua was making a fuss and slapped Arin on the back.

“Evil! Oh, it hurts! You bastard! Because of you, I shed all my tears!”

There was no more crying.

The training room hallway was filled with only the hopeful laughter of four people.

***

“Thank you all for your hard work during your first training.”

The training lasted for half a day.

“I was informed that everyone followed along well even though it was not a short period of time. I’m looking forward to the future.”

Since today was my first time, it was actually the lowest intensity training.

Training that covers only the basics of the basics.

But in the future, the intensity would increase more and more.

In addition to basic training, full-scale weapon handling training would also be added.

Once you become familiar with handling weapons and using skills to a certain extent, sparring training with hunters of similar skill level was scheduled to proceed.

“Sparring training with hunters?”

Chae-yoon asked with surprised eyes.

“Yes, it will be conducted as a joint training with other guilds, and we have already sent requests for cooperation to other guilds.”

Of course, it was still a story that would take place in the distant future, but the guild was already preparing for the girls’ next training.

“Awesome. Sparring training with other hunters! I must win!”

Su-ah started to burn the flame brightly.

“Yes, you will have to train hard to win.”

Although they said they would bring hunters of similar level, there was a high probability that they would be people with actual combat experience.

“Of course, by the time we spar, each of you will have entered about one gate per day. By joining together with other engineering colleges.”

“Like other engineering schools?”

“Yes, it will be with another engineering school. Of course, I will accompany you for your safety.”

So everyone nodded once they realized that they were one team per day.

I had worked with other engineering schools, but most of the time I was in a porter position, so I couldn’t hide my excitement.

On the one hand, I was anxious and fearful, and on the other hand, I was excited and excited that it would happen soon.

“So now that training is over, what do you do in the afternoon?”

Su-ah asked if there was anything more left.

“Today was the first day of training, so you can go home and rest.”

The members, who thought there would be other schedules in the schedule, which was shorter than expected, looked a little disappointed.

“Eh, I want to do something more.”

Su-ah spoke on behalf of the women.

It could be because I rested for a long time, or it could be because I was overflowing with motivation once I started doing something properly.

All four of us had the same feelings.

I don’t want to go home and rest like this.

“This is the rest you can take because it is the first day. Starting tomorrow, we will learn things such as how to do dungeon briefings and dungeon information in the afternoon.”

Briefing was an essential skill for an engineering leader.

As of now, all four of them had comparable skills, so it was unknown who would become the head of the engineering team.

So, all four of them were to take classes together and learn it.

“Eh, theory class.. I don’t like theory..”

Naturally, Su-ah, who had expected more movement, looked disappointed.

“I wanted to learn how to properly brief!”

Arin’s eyes sparkled as she unexpectedly wanted to try something like this.

“Well, I thought I would like to learn it at least once.”

Like Arin, Chae-yoon wanted to learn how to do it at least once while watching the hunters giving briefings.

However, general guilds do not usually teach how to brief in earnest.

It was about learning through experience.

“I don’t care about anything.”

As expected, Nahyun didn’t seem very interested, but that didn’t mean she hated it as much as Sua.

“Anyway, that’s it, so let’s all relax today. It will be quite busy starting tomorrow.”

Everyone nodded at Geon-woo’s words.

“Yes, I understand. Well then, let’s get into it. See you tomorrow, Gilma!”

Arin came out first and said hello to organizing things, and the others also said hello one by one and walked out.
