Angela, with a flushed face, strikes the hammer next to the anvil.

I explained the whole story to her, who seemed to have misunderstood something.

The student she wants is not a blacksmith, but a tanker.

“Ah, it was a tank… .”

Her expression quickly darkens after taking the red pill.

what.

This feeling of having committed a sin even though I didn’t do anything.

“I want to learn as a tank, um… .”

Angela stands with her arms crossed with a gloomy expression, looking sideways at Shin Yu-jeong next to her.

Under her gaze, the already stiff body becomes even stiffer.

I guess I really want to learn.

If you go somewhere and see a guy who doesn’t get nervous easily, he’s so stiff.

“It’s embarrassing.”

An awkward expression.

Is it still a failure?

In a way, it is natural.

Even if Cerberus’ by-products are valuable, it would be unreasonable to push even disciples with them.

“I understand. It is definitely burdensome to suddenly teach complete strangers… .”

Before the relationship became awkward, it was time to give a detailed reason for her rejection.

“No, that’s not a burden.”

I don’t feel burdened by teaching others… ?

“Then which part?”

“That’s right… .”

She opened her mouth with a sheepish expression and continued speaking with a faint smile on her lips.

“I have never taught anyone how to be a tank.”

“Ah.”

“So that’s the problem. Even if I were to teach, I wouldn’t know what to teach… , Uhm, I can’t think of anything.”

“I see.”

surely.

That’s a problem in its own right.

Reaching your own level and teaching others are completely separate issues.

A person with great skills cannot necessarily be a good teacher.

This is especially true for those who instinctively identify problems and improve them, rather than delving deeply into their movements or techniques theoretically and developing them.

And if you think about Angela’s personality… , obviously the latter.

“Did you say oil well?”

“Ah, yes.”

“This guy looks talented, and just by looking at his muscles, I can tell how hard he works on a daily basis.”

“Thank you.”

Shin Yoo-jeong bows her head, not knowing what to do in response to the pouring praise.

Angela continues.

“It’s time for growth. That’s why I’m even more worried.”

Hunter’s growth is no different from that of ordinary people.

At least one year younger and younger.

A clean state in which it is easy to accept and learn something and there are no bad habits.

Shin Yu-jeong still remains in that period.

At most, the time is about 2 to 3 years.

Depending on how much you learn and expand your horizons during this time, it will have a tremendous impact on the remaining time.

I was already worried that I would need to find a good teacher for Yujeong and other team members.

So I was hoping that Angela would be a good teacher.

“It’s a shame.”

it’s a shame.

sincerely.

But I can’t help it.

A teacher who cannot teach properly and a student who follows him well.

This combination will only overflow with enthusiasm, and instead of improving your skills, you may just repeat the same steps and regress.

“This story never happened… .”

It was time to quietly do something that had never happened before.

Likewise, Shin Yu-jeong, who was standing with a sad and tearful face, stepped forward and interrupted me.

“I really want to learn from Angela!”

A desperate cry.

At those words, a burden appears on Angela’s face.

The sudden rush is embarrassing, but I understand.

It can’t be easy to give up when there is someone in front of you who shows you the ideal form of your dreams.

I lightly tap the guy on the shoulder and start talking.

“Yujeong, I understand how you feel… .”

But his heart was much stronger than I thought.

“You don’t have to teach me anything in particular. Just tell me the exact routine that Angela sent you! I will enlighten myself by following along!”

The will to learn somehow even broke through the burden on Angela’s face.

She looks a little confused and is lost in thought.

“What I did… ?”

It’s not easy.

Each person has a different personality and inclination.

There are many different ways to achieve enlightenment.

This means that there is no guarantee that something will be achieved by following one person’s routine exactly.

No matter how simple Shin Yu-jeong is, there is no way he wouldn’t know that.

In other words, it means that you are desperate enough to want to try it.

Angela, who was thinking deeply, soon opened her mouth with a humble expression on her face.

“If I want to do my job, I have to learn how to hammer first… ?”

Yes.

She is someone who prefers working as a blacksmith to working as a tank.

To discuss the daily routine of such a woman, it would also be necessary to work as a blacksmith.

I thought it ended there.

Shin Yu-jeong is the type of person who is not efficient unless it is something she is truly interested in.

Since he knew that, I thought he would give up his regrets and step down.

“I will!”

Angela and I’s eyes widened at the same time at his firm answer.

“That means… Does this mean you want to learn blacksmithing?”

“If that’s what it takes to recreate Angela’s routine, I’ll do my best there too.”

The corners of Angela’s mouth rise.

“Haha… , Then the story is different… ?”

My heart cheers.

Shin Yu-jeong does not miss this moment and bows her head again.

“I will treat you as a teacher, senior!”

“Hmm… !”

A wedge was driven in.

Her humble words broke Angela’s increasingly weakened heart.

Angela, moved by her heart, put the hammer next to the anvil into Shin Yu-jeong’s hand and shouted fiercely.

“Joooaaaa! Then start with 10,000 light hammer strikes!”

“… Yes, Master!”

This was concluded.

A similar yet different relationship between two priests.

It resonates at the same time.

The sound of powerful hardening for the future.

Taaang!

earth-!

“That’s not it! If you hit with just your arm strength, you will get tired quickly! Hammering is done with your whole body!”

“I will try again!”

Taaang!

“Okay, that’s it! That’s 10,000 times in that position! Clumsy posture is not strong!”

“Heo Eok, yes… !”

… It worked out well, right?

* * *

Although the Cerberus incident was over, the world was still noisy.

An article with strong criticism towards the World Hunter Association.

The absurd stories of conspiracy theorists and doomsday theorists spread across the Internet.

One surprising thing is that bullshit that would normally not have been noticed is causing ripples in people’s minds one by one.

Because they saw it with their own eyes.

The Greek disaster suddenly appeared and raged in the middle of Korea.

That served as evidence.

Weak support that the stories of doomsday theorists and conspiracy theorists may not simply be lies.

In addition, people who just like to make fun of stories and cause trouble in a turbulent situation are making up and spreading false rumors, further adding to the confusion.

“… It’s a big deal.”

The saintess struggled alone amidst the ever-growing chaos.

Reports from Guardians branches in each country are full of bad stories.

That wasn’t all.

The number of visits by rich and anxious people has doubled or tripled compared to usual.

They even told strange stories.

“Saint, does the Orthodox Church in the Vatican not sell indulgences?”

“Yes… ? And, it’s an indulgence.”

“Indulgences that other denominations have recently started selling! They say that if you have it, God will forgive all your sins… .”

“That… !”

Indulgence.

Who on earth is selling such nonsense?

According to common sense, this is nonsense.

There’s no way the sins I’ve committed so far will go away just because I bought a piece of paper with a few words written on it.

But surprisingly, it worked now.

“Indulgence… , Is there really a religion for sale?”

“Sadly, it is true, saint.”

“People pay money to buy that.”

“… Yes.”

If there is no demand, there is no supply.

It is only possible for other religions to sell indulgences because there are so many people looking for them.

It’s deplorable.

The current situation is that religious people who are supposed to guide people to the right path according to God’s will are taking advantage of this chaos to make money.

“Saint, how about we sell indulgences too…? .”

“No, it’s not because we want money, it’s what other believers want.”

“If it truly brings peace to their hearts, wouldn’t that be a good thing?”

Even within the Orthodox Church, a movement to sell indulgences began to emerge.

Of course, I flatly refused.

“If anyone brings up the idea of selling indulgences one more time… Please understand that I will immediately strip you of your position and declare you a heretic.”

I didn’t forget to leave a sharp warning.

She was sure.

This chaos will not sleep easily.

because.

‘It’s clear that someone is causing more confusion.’

Seven deadly sins.

Or something else.

They want the world to be chaotic.

Only then will it be easier for them to operate.

And if this chaos continues, the existing power becomes evil, and the new power that brings it down becomes good and reigns.

If that happens, there will be a huge chaos that cannot even be compared to what it is now.

‘It must be stopped, absolutely.’

The confusion must be put to rest.

To do that, we had to catch those who were causing confusion.

Fortunately, the Guardians’ current power is at its peak.

In addition to the 7 great apostles of good fortune, heroes with good influence are joining one after another.

If they join forces, this chaos can easily be put to rest.

So she decided to bring forward the scheduled event and handed the maid a letter with her handwriting.

“I need to move up the exchange meeting. Please forward this to each branch.”

“Yes, saint.”

A maid who takes the letter and quickly disappears.

Alone, she looked down at the garden where beautiful flowers were blooming colorfully and thought.

Exchange meeting.

An event held quarterly or semi-annually where members of the Guardians working in secret from all over the world get to know each other and build friendships.

This was her desire and belief.

The desire for the Guardians members to become close friends and family.

The belief that the power of such strong relationships is the true power to save the world.

“I’m looking forward to it.”

What kind of relationships will they build with the people they have carefully selected?

What kind of synergy will you create that will surprise you and the world?

She was so looking forward to it that she couldn’t erase the smile on her face for a long time.
