Effort… …

Do Yu-jin’s head went blank for a moment at the sudden emergence of the theory of tenacity.

‘No, isn’t that just nonsense?’

But suddenly, it occurred to me that it wasn’t completely unreasonable.

Until now, Do Yu-jin had only thought about raising her stats or increasing her [Talent] value, but had never thought about covering up her [Talent] with effort.

‘It’s possible. [Talent] doesn’t fix my status to an absolute state of ‘-60’, but rather puts a debuff of ‘-60′ on my current status.’

under-

‘I thought I was thinking flexibly, but am I still stuck in the frame of a game?’

At the same time, Do Yu-jin gains new insight through Darcy’s words.

“Actually, I find that interesting too.”

Darcy lightly stroked his chin and looked at Do Yu-jin with sharp eyes as if he was looking at prey.

“Not as serious as you, but sometimes there are guys who are shockingly untalented when it comes to using their bodies like you.”

“Really?”

“Yeah, guys who swing their swords and get dragged around by the sword and fall down alone in the middle of nowhere.”

“Well, there are definitely people like that sometimes.”

Do Yu-jin felt a new sense of despair at having to nod her head at such words and answered.

But that was only for a moment.

“Right? But people have the ability to learn, so if they continue to live in that body, they will somehow adapt and develop to the distorted state of their physical senses, and they will be able to live a minimal life, right?”

“Uh… … ”

As Darcy continued speaking, Do Yu-jin felt a slight chill run down her spine.

“For example, even a kid without motor skills can learn to walk. It’s something they do a lot in their daily lives.”

Gyaut-

“But why are you like this? It’s like you were suddenly put into someone else’s body.”

Wow, I feel like I’m being interrogated by a wild animal with incredibly keen senses.

Do Yu-jin answered with difficulty, hiding the beads of sweat running down the back of her neck.

“Well, I’ve never run since I was little because I keep falling down whenever I run, so maybe that’s why?”

“Hmm, is that so?”

It was a lame excuse, but since Do Yu-jin’s talent was so out of the norm and in a bad way, people thought it was just the same and let it slide.

Squeak-

“Here is… … ”

“Well, I was a little off topic, but that’s it.”

While Do Yu-jin was looking around the inside of the training room, which looked a little different from before, Darcy continued to explain.

“The reason you couldn’t run a little while ago is because you’re not used to running with your body. No, from what you’ve said so far, you’re probably not used to the act of using your body vigorously. Right?”

“Oh, yes.”

“Okay.”

Shhh-

“Then what you have to do from now on is simple.”

When Darcy looked at him with a deep smile, Do Yu-jin felt an indescribable ominousness for a moment and took a step back without realizing it.

And at that moment.

-Survival Mode, LV. 3 START!

Suddenly, Do Yu-jin heard the system sound coming from the speakers on the ceiling.

Clank-

Then, the walls and ceiling of the training room opened up, revealing numerous holes, and inside them, numerous sticks that looked like gun barrels moved, aiming at Do Yu-jin.

“This is… … ”

When Do Yu-jin was hesitating and backing away towards the exit behind her in a sudden situation.

Kwak-

Darcy stopped him by firmly grabbing Do Yu-jin’s shoulder.

“Just roll around like a dog. Don’t worry about your skin getting ripped, your muscles getting torn, your bones getting broken, until you’re literally exhausted.”

She said with a smile as refreshing as the spring breeze.

“Now, don’t worry. I’ll make sure to educate you just like you wanted.”

Those words were so incredibly kind that they gave me goosebumps.

◎ ◎ ◎

Beep-!

“Come on, don’t be a slacker and run with all your might. I’ve created an environment where you can use all your strength, so what do you want to do?”

Darcy said that and then chuckled.

“No, I misspoke. If there’s anyone who wants to see a hell worse than this tomorrow, feel free to slack off. It’s good to have some free time.”

Wooo–!!!

At Darcy’s single word, all the students cheered and gave strength to their whole bodies.

However, the type of spirit was slightly different for each.

“Run away! Run away even if you have to cut off my arm like a lizard and throw it away!!!”

“Kill him! Kill him first, then catch him!”

After giving Do Yu-jin a simple prescription, Darcy returned to the students of Class 3.

And literally squeezed them to the brim.

Thanks to this, the students were in a state where they were not only completely exhausted from both physical strength and magic power, but also literally fainted, and were no different from corpses.

Literally hell.

Even Sunny Ozment, who always had a self-love smile on her face no matter how difficult the situation was, couldn’t keep that smile on her face.

“Okay, did you get some rest?”

And after squeezing the students like that, Darcy gave them a proper break and divided them into two teams.

“Okay, you’re all probably tired, so let’s play a simple game for the remaining time.”

“A game?”

“Yeah, by the way, the name of the game is tag.”

Tag?

While the students were anxious about the appearance of a familiar yet ominous game, Darcy explained with a smiling face.

“By the way, there is a penalty for those who lose the game.”

“The penalty is… … ”

“It’s a simple penalty.”

Darcy answered a student’s question lightly, as if it were nothing.

“Those who were caught by the tagger or who were not caught by anyone will have their training load doubled tomorrow.”

Wooo–!!!

This is why the students are now playing tag, or rather hunting, with all their might.

In fact, originally this was a very dangerous thing.

Although they are students, everyone here is a superhuman.

Because if you were to make a little mistake, someone could get hurt in an accident.

But it was okay now.

“Ugh, ugh… … dildo, ugh… … broken!!!”

“Because of the training… … I feel weak… … ”

“Bar, binding is not possible… … ”

“Sword, the power to swing a sword… … ”

Because Darcy had squeezed all the students so hard, they were now no better than seaweed blowing in the wind.

‘It’s still a bit lively. I’ll have to squeeze out more tomorrow.’

Darcy muttered something to himself that would have terrified the students if he had heard it, then quickly checked the device.

-Whoaaah!

Do Yu-jin was seen struggling to avoid balls flying out from all over the place and clubs swinging at her whenever she stopped walking for even a moment.

Although the sight was closer to the quadrupedal walking of an animal than the running of a human, there was no problem.

Because it was clear that he was rolling with all his might.

‘You have perseverance. Well, that must be why you were thinking of taking the class that way.’

While the class was going on, Darcy took a moment to look over Do Yu-jin’s records.

From the records she saw, Do Yu-jin had been taking all kinds of classes without any break for the past two weeks.

‘This guy must have been trying to figure out a way to fix his situation. As proof, none of these classes overlap.’

In fact, Do Yu-jin had only done the trait work to obtain the trait, but to Darcy, who did not know him, it seemed like Do Yu-jin was just struggling to find a way to resolve his condition.

“By the way, that’s strange… … ”

Darcy lowered his gaze slightly.

“This guy, why is his entrance exam record like this?”

Students who enter the circle are usually divided into two groups.

One type is those who honestly took the entrance exam and proved their abilities.

The other group was those who were scouted because their talents or potential were recognized.

For reference, Do Yu-jin is the former, not the latter, and came in with average grades without any special features.

And that’s what Darcy was wondering about.

‘With this guy’s body, it would be impossible for him to get average grades on the entrance exam.’

Hmm… …

Darcy, who had been lost in thought, muttered while looking at Do Yu-jin beyond the device.

‘Is there something I don’t know?’

-Oh! Why are you shooting so many balls?

-Eww! Don’t hit me when I fall! I’ll get up!

‘… … But no matter how I look at it, it doesn’t seem to be hiding anything, it just looks like a weak rabbit.’

Darcy hesitated for a moment and then nodded.

“Well, it’s fun to watch them running around like crazy, so I guess I’ll just keep them by my side and watch them for a while.”

It was something that would have terrified Do Yu-jin if she had heard it.
