Cha Yeo-joo, professor in charge of the class.

She sighed deeply.

I searched my pocket and took out my wallet.

What caught my eye was a photo in my pocket.

What’s inside…

It was Cha Yeo-ju herself in her youth.

He was standing shyly with a youthful expression, holding two dual swords and a shield at his waist.

Standing right on the other side was a woman of similar age to Cha Yeo-ju.

A red-haired woman with impressive bronze skin holding a hammer, smiling brightly and holding out her finger in a V sign.

Lim Hye-ja’s appearance hasn’t changed much since she was young.

‘… ‘I saw it once recently.’

I heard that you visited the at the request of Chairman Yoo Neung-hae.

Im Hye-ja was unaware of it, but Cha Yeo-ju had seen it once.

A deceptively youthful look that doesn’t seem to have aged at all.

There doesn’t seem to be anything particularly shadowy about the face here…

Fortunately, he seemed to be doing well.

‘It’s been over 5 years since I haven’t seen you…’ ‘

Okay, that’s enough.

You and Lim Hye-ja can’t even be said to be close friends, it just feels like former co-workers.

To be exact, they were rivals competing fairly for one man…

In the end, both were defeated, so it was meaningless.

I look at the photo again.

Right in the middle.

Between Cha Yeo-ju and Im Hye-ja, there was a tall man over 190 years old who was smiling with a slightly troubled face.

He’s not handsome, but he has thick lines like a man.

He was a likable man who was often called a bear.

‘… senior.’

The leader of the party and Mahana’s father.

A person whom Cha Yeo-ju desperately loved.

It was Matthew Han.

widely.

Cha Yeo-ju quietly closed the photo album.

Beyond sight.

Crouching down and saying ‘Mmm…’ ‘The street looks at Mahana and Yoo Se-ha trying in every direction to comfort her.

No, correct me.

What catches the eye of Cha Yeo-ju…

An adult woman with an aura similar to Mahana.

It was the appearance of a woman who had intercepted senior Matthew Han, waving her two tails.

Cha Yeo-ju closed her eyes.

That’s the beginning… It was .

One day, she was suddenly discovered in the .

She was a girl who proved that she was definitely not from this world.

With a gentle, idiot-like appearance…

She is the fox-like woman who took away her beloved senior.

‘… … ‘

Cha Yeo-ju’s grip tightens.

I want to spit out resentful words right now, but…

‘… after.’

Soon I shake it off slightly.

Because this is nothing more than venting.

In the first place, what crime could that little girl have?

Cha Yeo-ju looked at Mahana again.

It’s true that she resembles that woman, but…

‘senior.’

He looks exactly like senior Matthew Han.

The bright smile he showed naturally overlapped with his senior’s face and evoked nostalgia for the past.

As a bonus…

‘You inherited the talent as well.’

Cha Yeo-ju saw clearly in the sparring match.

The sight of him performing a skillful [Shield Art] against Jeon Hee-joo.

A scene where he uses martial arts based on high speed against Yoo Se-ha.

In Yeoju Cha’s view, it was a ‘talent’ that met and exceeded the ‘standards’ she had set for herself.

Of course, strictly speaking, the growth that Mahana showed was Yoo Se-ha’s ‘Oh my gosh, our favorite!’ It is possible because it is based on the experience that was provided while working.

Cha Yeo-ju, who didn’t know that, just thought that Mahana also inherited great talent like her senior.

Cha Yeo-ju sighed.

Actually, I hoped not.

I hoped that I would fall short of the standard and be weak.

That way you will suffer less.

‘but… ‘

Since he proudly proved it like that, he had to keep his promise.

-Yeoju. Someday, ‘that day’ will come for our Mnyang. We need to prepare for that time. There is no one to guide it but you.

―… What are you talking about when you come so suddenly? And why did you become so thin while I wasn’t seeing you? Could it be because of that woman? Did it happen because of that woman? Answer me. senior!!!

―… Sorry. still…

Please.

“… Haha.”

Cha Yeo-ju placed her hand on her forehead.

I soon came to my senses.

Clap clap-!

I clapped my hands to get the cadets’ attention.

“… Thank you all for your hard work. That’s all for today’s class. The winner is requested to receive the store before leaving.”

After finishing speaking, Cha Yeo-ju’s gaze focuses on Mahana.

‘Muang…’ ‘ Mahana trembles slightly.

Cha Yeo-ju looked at her and nodded.

‘all right. senior.’

At least…

I will raise her to a level where she will not be ashamed of being the daughter of a senior.

Anyway, I don’t think there’s much I can do about it.

‘That kid already… ‘

Because he has found his own path and the existence he must protect.

Just give me some tips and they will absorb it well.

‘finally… ‘

The ‘thing’ that was entrusted to me.

When the time comes, I will hand it over to that child.

‘That is the payment of the last debt I owed you.’

* * *

Grumbling-

Chlorine blooming throughout the body.

I let out a small exclamation as the flame became much stronger than before.

‘I knew, but… ‘

I thought the Unique level was different.

The place I was currently in was Peng Jin-ah’s personal training ground.

I arrived here about an hour earlier than my ‘exclusive class’ with her.

The reason is the Unique grade skill I acquired a while ago.

To test [Burning Flame].

Usually, at ‘Gosra’, unique items are given special treatment.

If you win a hero through gacha and are at a level where you can use it.

From the next step, Unique, we entered a kind of final setting.

‘Well, I use all kinds of skills regardless. It doesn’t really have any meaning, though.’

Still, [Burning Fire] was a skill with sufficient decisive battle-level performance.

Because there are two .

‘And the first of them all.’

That is, [Eye of Red Flame].

Kaan-!

Bubbly-!

I blocked the dummies’ attacks with my shield.

As soon as it touched the shield, their weapon melted and burst into bubbles.

The training virtual dummies that were attacking hesitated and stepped back as their weapons melted.

‘Good.’

As shown in sparring, [Eye of the Crimson Flame] was an ability that would be useful for a long time.

Highly efficient performance that increases durability and grants a buff.

In fact, there was nothing left to throw away.

‘The downside is that multiple applications are not possible.’

I don’t know if it’s because I’m still immature, or if there’s a limit at all.

Simultaneous application to [Saint’s Sword] and [Shield] was not possible.

Anyway, it’s good.

[Eye of the Red Flame] had already shown its true value in Dalian, so there seemed to be no need to check it further.

‘Now, it’s the long-awaited time.’

It’s actually the highlight of the day.

I focused only on [Burning Flame].

Hot flames surround the surroundings like living creatures.

The second ability of [Burning Flame] is the recorded as [Flare Buster].

Yes, it is the .

Occasionally, there are cases where is recorded in some of the skills, but it is a very small number of cases…

‘As expected, I’m lucky.’

All of this must have been the luck of hanging out with Mnyang.

thud-!

While preparing, new enemies began to appear in the training area.

All the small piles scattered in front of me disappear, and a huge pile approaches at a reasonable distance.

A large being that could easily be 3 meters tall.

Here, there were a lot of iron plates covering the entire body, commonly called ‘rice cake gloves’.

It was a typical specialized dummy.

Ji-ing-!

When magical power was injected, both arms were engulfed in flames, revealing a red color.

‘Concentrate… ‘

It may be activated for the first time, but since it is a skill I have, it is ultimately my power.

Before I knew it, my left arm was aiming towards the guy with the palm open.

Hold your wrist with your right hand.

Magical power boils like an active volcano.

The tattoo announcing the is taking root and blooming on both arms.

“ !”

Manifestation of words.

Immediately after, the size of the flames swirling around my left hand increased.

Kukwakwa-!!!

A huge fireball.

A fiery judgment that seems to melt anything explodes upon the .

Pugh-!!!!

It was like looking at the spherical breath fired by .

After a while.

The , engulfed in fire, collapsed helplessly, emitting black smoke.

[The judgment of unfolds in your hands.]

[Casts ‘Flare Buster’.]

[It has a cooldown of 1 hour.]

“Hmm… … ”

I thought deeply as I cleared away the floating .

It was also powerful.

The scope is also complied with.

However, it was incomparable to the same , [Falling Destruction Island].

‘… As a rule of thumb, it’s about a quarter of the size of [Paetcheonmyeomseom].’

[Flare Buster] is definitely not weak.

This is just a phenomenon seen because the skill [Falling Destruction] is such a powerful ultimate skill.

However, as someone who is a dead person, I couldn’t shake the feeling that it was a bit disappointing in many ways.

If we were to really consider the tier, would it be said to be a tier 2 ultimate skill?

Of course, [Island of Destruction] is the highest among tier 1.

‘Still, the advantages are clear.’

Although you can tell from the rising window.

[Flare Buster] had a fairly short cooldown.

It is not that many times that is only 1 hour.

There were no special restrictions here.

It was proof that I was strong enough to handle it.

‘The magic power consumption is not that high… ‘

Crucially, it was very good that it was a mid- to long-range skill with a range of about 50m.

Currently, I don’t have any special long-distance skills other than attacking with a [bow].

However, as there were advantages, there were also definite disadvantages.

Even if it has mediocre power.

Maybe it’s because it hasn’t reached the mature stage yet.

I needed time to unconditionally extend my left arm forward and aim.

It was not easy to fly it to the desired location unless you held it with your right arm and controlled the recoil.

This means that it requires quite difficult controls.

Lastly, it is an ability created with the assumption of shooting from a long distance.

If I shot at close range, I couldn’t guarantee the damage either.

‘I think it would be okay if I defend with +[Red Flame Eyes]… ‘

You will have to be prepared to have some part of your body destroyed.

Anyway, with this, the analysis of the newly acquired abilities is complete.

I ended while thinking of Pang Jin-ah, who would come soon.

Tuk.

And then.

The sound of something falling brought my attention back.

*

“What… ?!”

I saw a beautiful woman with beige hair looking in this direction as if she couldn’t believe it.

The real identity is Pyeongjin-ah.

She dropped some of the training tools she had in her hands.

Probably, judging by how cheap it is…

It was assumed that he had brought it with him to use in class today.

“Professor… Ah, no, Master. Something like a sandbag fell on the floor-”

“-That’s not important, Cadet Yoo Se-ha.”

Pang Jin-ah cut me off and said, Pang-dad-dak! and came running.

She was so quick that I didn’t realize she was coming until she grabbed my hand.

It wasn’t that I was particularly relaxed, I was just pushed by pure speed.

‘… As expected, there is still a long way to go.’

It seemed like the road to the destination of Class A would be difficult.

Paeng Jin-ah looked at me all the time.

He made a cute fuss while watching the training ground on fire.

“Yu, Cadet Yoo Se-ha! A little while ago… Oh, a huge fireball. Is it really the ?”

“… Oh, yes, that’s right.”

“Oh my god… !”

Peng Jin-ah held her breath in the rising embarrassment.

Traces of burning flames.

Looking at its power, it doesn’t seem to be particularly special among .

Still, the ultimate is the ultimate.

Even among , there is a huge difference in power between learning and not learning the .

There is no reason why even in , those with are given much higher bonus points.

‘Because it is a hidden card that can turn the tide of battle.’

Yoo Se-ha just used it.

Usually, most students learn the “Ultimate Skill” while going from 2nd to 3rd year.

Some people who are called geniuses learn it around the middle of the second year.

However, this also varies from case to case.

Some people could only learn it after graduating from the academy, and there were many cases where they could not master it even if they trained their whole life.

‘I can’t believe I learned that while I was still a first year student… ‘

Additionally, in Peng Jin-ah’s opinion, the skill Yoo Se-ha just used was a fire attribute ultimate skill that could be used in the class.

Basically, skills are learned according to the owner’s talents and specialization.

Even though Yoo Se-ha possesses various abilities, he is basically a warrior figure.

For him to obtain an ultimate skill that exists in a completely contradictory position…

It was literally a manifestation of tremendous genius.

Peng Jin-ah couldn’t stop her admiration from rising.

‘also… ‘

He was a genius among geniuses.

Peng Jin-ah said, ‘Now I guess I’ll have to throw away some common sense.’ He promised this and cleared his throat loudly.

“Congratulations. Cadet Yoo Se-ha. Now that you have obtained the drama, there is one more strategy you can use.”

“Thank you.”

Peng Jin-ah looked at Yoo Se-ha like that and was quietly relieved.

Soon, I started saying something similar to talking to myself.

“Still, I’m glad.”

“Uh, yes?”

“It looks like you haven’t mastered [Falling Destruction Island] yet. So, you must be honing other abilities.”

“… … Uh.”

“Well, it won’t be easy. At the very least, it is a drama that is more difficult to obtain than the fireball you just wrote. Anyway, Cadet Yoo Se-ha. Even if you’re amazing, you’ll have to go up to the second year to try it.”

“… Hey, that… ”

Peng Jin-ah said, ‘Um, um…’ ‘!’ he nodded.

This was truly fortunate for Peng Jin-ah.

I was unable to acquire [Falling Destruction Island].

In other words, there is still something left to teach him.

‘Furthermore… ‘

It was said that it was an excuse and a reason to hold with Yoo Se-ha even for third graders.

In fact, Peng Jin-ah was nervous.

‘They say there’s really nothing more to learn… ‘

What if you leave me and go away?

It was Peng Jin-ah that I liked so much, but…

A word from Yoo Se-ha, who was soon crawling in, made me stiffen.

“… I wrote it.”

“… What?”

“[Fate of Destruction]… ”

I wrote it.

When finishing .

“… … ”

Peng Jin-ah could not believe her ears.

I blinked.

What the hell now… what?

Paeng Jin-ah looks blankly at Yoo Se-ha.

Yoo Se-ha, who was looking at her like that, could only show a shy smile.
