‘Nothing special? ‘Is it just this much?’
‘Damn it, instructor guy. Discrimination against people… ‘
‘If only I was next to that guy named Lee Min-ho instead of this bastard… ‘
The new transferees glared at Kim Jae-yoon with eyes full of jealousy. They could not forget the disdainful look on their faces when they asked the instructor why Kim Jae-yoon and Min-ho were not being educated together with them.
Their eyes seem to say, ‘These people live in a different world from yours.’
It was a look they could never understand.
In fact, most of the people who were dissatisfied with Kim Jae-yoon and Minho were not in a very good situation in the original world.
Most of those who originally worked as members of a good society in the world soon came to terms with the situation they were in and did their best to adapt. Because they were busy learning new knowledge and training their bodies, they couldn’t afford to be jealous of others like them.
Those who argued with Kim Jae-yoon only ended up in the tower by chance.
The days of learning jobs and skills while away in a world called Top, like something out of a novel or cartoon. Unlike their helpless hometown, they even got a status window and inventory. It was commonly known as the system.
But it was only for a moment that they felt their hearts pounding as they envisioned the brilliant days ahead. They were people who had no experience in achieving anything in the first place and lacked will.
Of course, there was no way such people could stand out in the tower, where they had to live more intensely than in reality.
While he was increasingly falling behind others and growing anxious, he discovered Kim Jae-yoon, who was training alone, and his dissatisfaction exploded.
They argue while touching the training equipment. One of them happened to notice that the color of the logbook had changed.
“Huh? Hey, look. Logbook has been updated.”
“Really? Open it quickly. What kind of feat is this?”
“I heard that before our rider, there was a man named Wolfram in the upper class who achieved the feat most recently. Is it him again?”
“Ah, a feat isn’t a feat if it can be achieved so continuously.”
They forgot about arguing with Kim Jae-yoon and took out the logbook from their respective inventory and opened it.
Soon, dumb expressions appeared on their faces.
“?”
“W-what is this?”
“Companion? Contract?”
“Damn, it’s Lee Min-ho again.”
What they saw were two new feats that Minho had achieved.
They were confused at first, but soon went through similar reasoning as Kim Jae-yoon and came to the same conclusion.
Minho achieved this feat by becoming in a relationship with Shinsoo.
“Khahahaha!!!”
“Shinsu’s companion? Is there such a strange feat?”
“Boo, I’m jealous… No. What nonsense… !”
The guys burst into laughter and started chewing on Minho excitedly.
“Companion? Is this guy Lee Min-ho really hairless?”
“Khahahaha. Isn’t this a completely dirty guy? Huh?”
“That… That’s right… ! How can you imagine something like that with animals? ! uh! It’s strange even to me!”
Strangely, there were people who seemed to be watching in an awkward manner while others were arguing, but they laughed at Minho to their heart’s content anyway.
Murmurs also spread among the other transferees who did not join them and argue with Kim Jae-yoon, but just watched this place from afar.
“… … .”
In fact, Kim Jae-yoon was a little embarrassed after reading the records in the logbook. When it comes to divine beasts, it is common sense that they are closer to animals or monsters than to people, but no matter how much you respect their tastes, animals are a bit difficult. There were no monsters to speak of.
However, Minho was still a valuable colleague who would join the clan that Jaeyoon Kim would create. He was even guaranteed to be a hard carry in climbing the top in the future.
He was a talented person whom it would be a waste to hit a wall with only a minor flaw of taste.
“You throw away human dignity just to achieve some feat!”
“If we train together, won’t we just spread the disease?”
“Maybe it’s a good thing that they don’t train with us.”
“Yeah, right! More than that, I’m curious about what kind of divine beast it is!”
In response to their increasingly severe criticism, Kim Jae-yoon finally opened his mouth.
“Just do it in moderation.”
“What, are you furry too?”
“… … .”
Quick.
‘Okay, I’ve endured enough.’
Kim Jae-yoon finished training and took out the sword he had put away.
“If you have so many complaints, prove it with your skills.”
I flinch.
Kim Jae-yoon’s ‘fighting spirit’ skill is always activated. Thanks to that skill, when the burning eyes turned towards them, they took a step back without realizing it.
However, a total of four people approached Kim Jae-yoon to start a fight. There was an overwhelming difference in number. Soon the guys looked at each other and regained their confidence and spoke.
“You think I can’t do it if I say that?”
“Then let’s spar… ”
“But, I understand that you are receiving special training separately thanks to Lee Min-ho.”
“… What does that mean?”
“This is a story that is disadvantageous to those of us who received an ordinary education. Wouldn’t it be worth it if you at least have a handicap?”
If you think about it even a little, it was ridiculous and unreasonable.
When sparring was initially accepted to resolve the dispute, there was no reason for both sides to use equal force. Because he thought it was right and proceeded to carry it out with force.
It was natural for one side to be stronger than the other, and there was no reason to match it.
But Kim Jae-yoon nodded obediently. He felt such a shame losing his precious time to these trash.
“… That’s it. Then attack them all at once.”
Sigh.
“I’ll make you regret those words.”
“It’s okay to ignore people… !”
In this way, a 1-on-4 sparring match was completed.
Before I knew it, the transferees who were training had left a large space empty in the center of the training ground. The delinquent transferees took their seats across from Kim Jae-yoon, whispering among themselves.
One of the referees, appropriately enough, stood in the middle of them and raised his arms.
“Start!”
fault!
As soon as the sparring began, Kim Jae-yoon jumped towards his opponent. Since we had a lot of people, we didn’t plan on having the luxury of giving up the first strike.
visor!
“Ugh!”
A moan came out from the mouth of the man who clashed swords with Kim Jae-yoon. Kim Jae-yoon, whose talent was already being pushed aside, achieved a feat and was one level higher than them.
It was natural that he was no match for his physical ability.
That’s why they were talking about handicap.
Kim Jae-yoon was planning to just lower his sword and cut off his wrist. There was no need to worry because the temple here was equipped with amazing healing skills that could revive even simple injuries as long as they were alive.
At that time, two swords stabbed in from either side of Kim Jae-yoon, aiming at him.
“Lower pressure!”
“Chit.”
Since he had no intention of engaging in a fight with just one gangster, he pushed back with force with his sword.
“Wow… omg… Fuck, I almost fell!”
“Who wants to fight like that?”
“Even if you let this bastard live, it’s a damn thing.”
“Oh, get out of the way. There is no place to swing the sword.”
Even during sparring, it was pitiful that they were bickering because they couldn’t get along.
The battle that followed repeated similar patterns.
When Kim Jae-yoon targeted one person, the other guys sacrificed that guy and swung their swords recklessly.
It was a method so crude that it was hard to believe that they were literally the same colleagues, but it was effective in dealing with Kim Jae-yoon.
“Whoop… Huh… ”
Kim Jae-yoon moved with all his might from the beginning in order to quickly deal with one person, but he had not yet achieved his goal.
When the guys fought one-on-one, their level was so low that they couldn’t compare to Kim Jae-yoon. However, Kim Jae-yoon did not have any experience fighting against multiple people yet.
Moreover, his profession is a gladiator whose abilities are focused on attack. If there was no one to support you, it was a job where your shortcomings were greatly highlighted in a team competition like this.
This was also the reason why their water ghost operation worked.
Although Kim Jae-yoon is the main character, the time he spent at the tower was absolutely insufficient. If you think of it as a race, it’s like you’ve just left the starting line. Of course, it meant that the gap with others had not widened significantly because he had not yet grown sufficiently.
The level 1 difference and talent allowed Kim Jae-yoon to deal with four people at the same time, but it was only about maintaining balance.
‘Damn, maybe it was me who was conceited… ?’
He was also at a disadvantage in terms of physical strength.
The fact that four rogue transferors were not skilled enough to attack at the same time meant that the resting members were conserving their stamina.
“That guy looks tired?”
“Unlucky bastard. Let’s just hit him with one bamboo stick.”
“If you break it in one or two places, it will heal on its own in the future.”
“That bastard was definitely aiming for my wrist earlier! I’m taking every inch of this bastard!”
“… … .”
Kim Jae-yoon is in danger of being dealt the opposite blow. The word sparring did not remain in their minds at all. All they had was thoughts of mass lynching Kim Jae-yoon.
That is, until a voice was heard.
“Hey, there. Are you doing something fun? Can you join me too?”
“!”
