The Girl I Saved Came Back As An S-rank Hunter

42 – End of training and return home

“Are you okay, Wonwoo?”

When I opened my eyes, what I saw was Sujeongi’s worried face. When he turned his head, Kang Hyeon-seok, who was standing next to him, was also in trouble.

I was able to quickly realize that I had fainted as I remembered the situation from a while ago.

“It’s okay. It didn’t hit me too hard.”

Obviously, by my standards, it was pretty strong, but I felt slightly embarrassed that I even fainted with that one shot, so I pretended nothing was wrong with Sujeong.

However, at those words, Sujeongi rather rolled her eyes at Kang Hyeonseok and said.

“I’ve definitely heard that this man teaches well, but looking at things like this, I honestly think these are exaggerated rumors.”

“Keuheum, I’m sorry. Unknowingly, I instinctively let go, but the attack went right in.”

At Sujeongi’s sharp point, I coughed and apologized while extending my hand as if I was embarrassed.

“No, that’s fine.”

I said grabbing Kang Hyeon-seok’s outstretched hand and getting him up.

Rather, should I say it’s because I feel like I’ve grasped the subject properly. The complacent mind that I thought that I could be a little bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of

It was an opportunity to realize once again that there is still a very long way to go.

“So you were able to recognize what it felt like?”

“Honestly, I don’t even know what is what.”

I answered Kang Hyun-seok’s question without lies. Then he let out a slight spittle voice and touched his rough chin.

“That’s why it’s so tricky to explain. Probably, in the eyes of you who were dealing with me, I looked like I was doing nothing and then suddenly moved.”

“Yes, that’s right. It just disappeared at some point and was hit.”

“That’s the magic of this [Counterattack] Skill.”

Kang Hyeon-seok smiles softly on his lips as if he is satisfied with my reaction.

However, Sujeongi frowns and glares at her as if she doesn’t like her appearance.

Perhaps he felt that stinging gaze, Kang Hyeon-seok erased a smile from his mouth and spoke to me.

“The reason I asked you to feel it was because I wanted you to learn the timing.”

“It certainly makes sense that words cannot express it.”

I sympathized with Kang Hyun-seok’s opinion and calmly reviewed what had just happened.

The moment you stretch out your fist first, the situation is already over.

I thought Kang Hyeon-seok was immobile, but rather, I was hit in an unexpected moment.

Generally, the basics of combat are to attack the gap while blocking or avoiding the opponent’s movement.

However, just now, they came into the attack rather than excluding that part.

‘Rather, he came in first by attack?’

In that moment, I was able to clearly understand what kind of skill it was.

“Looks like you noticed it to some extent?”

“Yes, I can understand why mana sensing is so important.”

I was able to confidently answer Kang Hyeon-seok’s question as if he had read my expression of understanding.

The principle is very simple, but the actual execution is a heinous skill.

As Kang Hyeon-seok said, it was true that to call it a skill was in some way crude.

It was very simple. It was just a matter of reading the moment the opponent was about to start an attack and attacking first in a short amount of time.

Because the time when you focus on attack is the most vulnerable state for defense.

This is why magic sensing was essential.

There is a high chance of an unexpected attack when dealing with monsters that usually appear in dungeons or gates.

In order to react to such attacks one by one and use [Counterattack], It is important to set the exact timing of the attack, and magic detection is what makes this happen.

It is possible because he is at an age with the ability to detect magical power that has been acknowledged even by S-rankers.

Kang Hyun-seok also understood why he was saying that it would be possible to pass it on only to me.

“But I can’t feel the timing at all, so what can I do? It makes sense in my head, but….”

I wondered if he had any other tips, so I looked at Kang Hyeon-seok and asked.

It’s easy to say, if you’re even a little bit faster, the opponent will read and change the direction, and if you’re late, the opponent’s attack will reach you first.

I wondered if there might be a know-how to accurately catch that ambiguous timing.

Kang Hyeon-seok answered the question with a dignified attitude.

“My theory is that if you learn something like this as you go along, you will learn quickly.”

“hahahaha…. Okay.”

I expected it, but it was as expected. Kang Hyun-seok is not the type to think very deeply. He fights very cleverly, but he only knows it instinctively.

“Ha….”

A spontaneous sigh. Seeing that day, Kang Hyeon-seok tapped him on the shoulder and said,

“Don’t worry. If you have a sense like yours, you’ll be able to figure it out in no time.”

Then he raises the dagger in his hand.

At that time, Sujeongi, who was next to him, intervened and heard something.

“Control your strength so you won’t get hurt this time, mister.”

“Okay, okay. Don’t worry. I have a clear sense of how much to do. Let’s start over.”

Kang Hyun-seok looks at me as if he is confident. From that figure, the future that would stretch after being exhausted was drawn.

“Haa… , ha….”

I was lying on the floor, breathing heavily.

“Are you okay?”

I answered Kang Hyun-seok’s question with only my upper body raised.

“Whoa…. Yes, that’s fine.”

It’s already been 5 days since I started training before I knew it. He still didn’t get a good feel for it.

Following Kang Hyeon-seok’s advice, if it’s slow, it’s a little faster.

“Hmm….”

Kang Hyeon-seok ponders with his eyes closed. Sujeong was also standing by and watching.

And after a while Kang Hyeon-seok opens his mouth.

“It seems that further training is pointless.”

“What does that mean?”

Receiving Kang Hyeon-seok’s words, Sujeongi quickly asked.

“It is literally. I already told you everything except the last one. The important thing now is to learn it yourself.”

“So, shouldn’t I rather keep watching from the side?”

Kang Hyeon-seok shook his head at Sujeongi’s obvious point.

“On the contrary, it seems like I can’t catch my senses because I keep dealing with only myself. Apparently, since we’re similar types, we seem to confuse them even more.”

There are some differences in small parts, but it was true that they were similar types, so I sympathized with them.

Kang Hyeon-seok adjusted his strength, but the timing of his attacks was still varied according to his own style.

Maybe that’s why it was more difficult to guess the timing.

“So what do you do, mister?”

“How about practicing with someone other than me? If you have the best connections, you might be able to find a decent training partner. I think it’s better to go back and train instead of here.”

At Sujeongi’s slightly annoyed question, Kang Hyeon-seok said.

“And seeing that the skeptical disciple has been locked in his room for the past few days and has not come out, it seems that he is quite lost, so he needs to be more careful.”

“Sorry. It happened unintentionally.”

I got up and apologized.

It’s not really something to apologize for, but I was the cause anyway.

Hyeonseok Kang shook his head with a small smile.

“No. Is that what I suggested? I am rather thankful that he believed in his own talent and broke his heart full of arrogance. He must have felt a lot because he was beaten by a person he thought was weaker than himself.”

“Hmph, how easy it is to see Wonwoo.”

At those words, Sujeongie seemed to have more negative thoughts about Lee Jihoon.

“With this opportunity, I will be able to grow further. I believe in my disciple. Anyway, this is my teaching for today.”

“Thank you for teaching me so many things.”

I bowed my head and said thank you. Hyeonseok Kang shook his hand and replied that it was nothing.

“No. I’ve completed my magic detection to some extent, so I didn’t have anything to tell you. Oh, and can you postpone the sparring we were supposed to do this time, teacher Choi?”

When I looked at Sujeongi and asked her doctor, she just nodded slightly as if it was annoying without answering.

“hehehe, thank you. No matter how much I like battle, I’m not a heartless person to the extent of leaving my pupil like that.”

“If I were that kind of person, I wouldn’t have even dealt with you.”

Sujeongi spit out a compliment that wasn’t a compliment to Kang Hyeon-seok and left the training ground.

Perhaps they went out to call to arrange a car to take us.

At that time, Kang Hyeon-seok looked at me as if he had remembered something and said with a serious face.

“Oh, and my last piece of advice, as I said similarly before, but don’t underestimate yourself.”

“Oh, yes.”

“I heard what kind of life you lived through a rough investigation, but you are enough to aim for S rank. Don’t get eaten by the strong lights around you. You have to go your own way.”

I was slightly moved by the story, as if it accurately penetrated the weakest part of me.

There was no lack of anxiety that no matter how hard I tried, I might not be able to reach the place where Sujeong is.

“Thank you. I will definitely listen.”

“I’ve seen enough of people who aren’t without talent and who aren’t lazy in their efforts. Believe in yourself, I guarantee you, having gone down a similar path.”

Being acknowledged by someone at the top of the domestic S-class made me feel a little lighter.

It must have been because I was given the correct direction to do what I was carrying on alone, which I couldn’t even tell Sujeongi.

“Wonwoo. The car is coming in a while, so let’s pack our things.”

“Ah, yes. Then let’s go.”

“Sure. When we meet next time, it would be nice to meet someone we can properly stick to.”

After saying goodbye to each other like that, I went to the room with Sujeongi and quickly packed my stuff.

I’m a bit confused because the training ended abruptly, but the person who taught me taught me everything and asked me to build experience through others, so I can’t help it.

After packing my belongings, I came out of the door where I was staying and saw Kim Min-jung, whom I hadn’t seen since the first day.

“You said you were going to die, so the guild leader asked you to see you off.”

“It’s okay if you don’t pay attention.”

“It’s because I’ve had you as a guest.”

At Sujeongi’s words, Kim Min-jeong reached out her hand with a determined attitude and took the lead as on the first day.

“Wasn’t your stay uncomfortable? Most of them are away from home due to guild work, so I’m sorry I couldn’t take a closer look.”

“Not at all. From lodging to meals. I was treated very well.”

She took the lead and answered Kim Min-jung’s question about how she spent the day.

“I asked the workers well, and it is fortunate that they were satisfied.”

“You don’t have to worry, Deputy Guild Manager Kim Min-jung.”

Soojeong also helped and reassured her. She looked back at us as we arrived at the exit a moment later, she said.

“Then I’ll see you next time. Go carefully.”

“Yes, thank you for the hospitality and seeing off.”

After Sujeongi replied to Minjung Kim’s greeting, the two of us left the door.

“My lady.”

At that time, Kang So-young, who quickly approached and received Sujeongi’s burden, came into her eyes. She then glanced at me and pointed to the car waiting behind her, she said.

“Looks like you arrived on time. Let’s get on quickly.”

“Yes, I understand. Wonwoo, shall we ride then?”

Without Sujeongi’s answer, I immediately got into the back seat of her car. Kang So-young put Soo-jung’s luggage into her trunk and sat down next to her.

“I’m leaving.”

A limousine departs with the driver’s horse. Kang So-young asked Soo-jeong about what she had been up to.

Sujeongi explained in detail what had happened so far.

“That’s why the uncle says it’s still incomplete. She said I needed to get a feel for it by practicing with various other people.”

After Sujeongi finished her words, Kang Soyeong looked at me again with a slight frown on her face.

Just looking at it, it seems that Sujeongie cared so much, but she seemed to be not doing it right, so she expressed her dissatisfaction.

But even if she frowns like that, she doesn’t know what she doesn’t know. In this case, shamelessness is important.

“So, lady, do you have any training partners in mind?”

After hearing everything like that, Kang So-young asked Soo-jeong.

“No? It happened suddenly a while ago, so no one comes to mind right now.”

At those words, Kang So-young smiled softly, and she said.

“Then can I help you with a practice match?”

Suddenly, words like lightning bolted from her mouth.

“Secretary Kang will do it? Aren’t you very busy?”

“I thought it would be good for me to help since the lady can now return and become a spouse.”

“Um.”

She looked at Sujeong, who was troubled while twisting her silver hair, and begged her to say no.

It’s an uncomfortable relationship, but I don’t want to be alone again just because I’m training.

However, words that were different from what I expected came out of Sujeongi’s mouth.

“Okay. I can trust Secretary Kang because he is also my teacher.”

“Thank you. I will make sure I master it perfectly.”

At the same time, he never showed a friendly gaze when he looked at me.

‘I really screwed up….’
