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

43 – Training alone with the secretary

“Ha… Something is tight.”

After returning home, the next day I arrived at the familiar training ground with uncomfortable steps.

As soon as you open the door and enter, the air inside the empty room feels especially heavy today.

“Why did he suddenly think that way?”

I couldn’t fall asleep because I was worried about Kang So-young’s bombshell-like comments that I threw on my way home yesterday. However, since Sujeong also allowed her to do so, there was no reason or justification for refusal.

Kang So-yeong also felt that her skills were S-class or close to her, so she was not lacking at all as her training partner.

Besides, since she started dating Sujeong in earnest now, there is nothing uncomfortable about it.

In the first place, Kang So-yeong was in a position not to look favorably on me when she didn’t make up her mind over Su-jeong.

Just what can I say? Whenever I deal with Kang So-young, I feel uncomfortable and difficult, as if I am meeting the parents of her soon-to-be-married girlfriend beyond her boss.

She said that she actually took care of Soo-jeong and raised her, so in a way, she was right.

“After…. I need to relax.”

She moved her body enough to slightly sweat while stretching her hands and knee joints sufficiently.

You don’t know what’s going to happen today, so it’s essential to prepare yourself. Just looking at his personality the other day at the item storage, he looked at her lightly or didn’t seem like that at all.

“You came out early and prepared.”

When the training ground door opened and she turned her head to the place where the voice was heard, she saw Kang So-young, not her suit.

She was wearing her unusual white T-shirt and black leggings underneath, revealing the beautiful curves of her seductive thighs and buttocks.

Her eyes went to the unconventional sight of her in her sportswear after looking at her stiff image.

“Hey, Wonwoo. What are you staring at so closely?”

She came to her senses belatedly at the words of Kang So-young, who frowned her eyebrows and raised her eyes as if asking in a bad mood.

“Oh, sorry. I only see the secretary in a suit every day, so this look is fresh.”

“Of course you can’t wear a suit and participate in training, right?”

“That’s right….”

She couldn’t say anything more about Kang So-young’s determined attitude, and after answering as if making excuses, she hesitated.

She is a very difficult person to deal with no matter how you think about it.

As I stood there hesitantly without saying a word, Kang So-yeong looked at me slowly and said.

“It seems like you have warmed up your body in advance, so you can start right away.”

“Oh, yes. You see.”

She immediately agreed with Kang So-young without saying a word.

Then Kang So-yeong held out her own hand.

A dagger with a purple blade appeared in her hand as white light radiated at that moment.

Kang So-young lightly gripped the dagger that appeared in front of her, and she swung it lightly.

The dagger began to move dazzlingly, moving back and forth between her fingers.

Unlike her usual expressionless expression, Soyoung Kang had a slight smile on her lips.

The dagger, which had been moving so much that it was difficult for the eyes to keep up with it, spun around on my wrist before I knew it, but the blade of the dagger did not hurt at all.

And at the end, the purple dagger that came out of my hand.

Unbeknownst to me, I had no choice but to swallow the silence at that figure.

Hunters who use daggers were almost unheard of, and it was the first time that they were skillful enough to draw attention.

However, when faced with a bigger problem than that, I cautiously asked Kang So-young.

“Are you going to help me train with that dagger?”

“Is that what you plan to do? Any problem?”

Kang So-yeong responded bluntly, asking why did she ask such a thing. But from my point of view, of course, I have no choice but to ask.

Because that dagger looked pretty rolling in real combat. Sharp anticipation never seemed fake.

In other words, if you get hit wrong with that thing, apart from hurting yourself, there could be an unfortunate incident where you leave this world without being able to make any further progress with Sujeong, whom you love.

Because I felt that my life was at stake, I had no choice but to take an active part.

“It’s training over there, so I thought it would be dangerous to use a really sharp sword.”

“You seem afraid of dying.”

“Wouldn’t that be natural for everyone?”

“Isn’t that kind of person doing so much, risking his life every time for the lady?”

She answered while thinking about what to say to the previous story that suddenly came in with a hook.

“The situation was unavoidable. It is a situation that can be ruled out enough now.”

“Really? Then what about this?”

After saying that, Kang So-young suddenly disappeared leaving behind her.

She appears in front of her after a while and tries to thrust the dagger in her hand into the scruff of my neck without hesitation.

I was too close to avoid it, so I couldn’t react.

I don’t know why he’s doing this, but if the dagger moves as it should, it was quite predictable that the blade would get stuck in his throat and he would die.

There is no choice but to be stunned by the sudden approaching shadow of death.

Unexpectedly, however, the blade of the dagger did not pierce the neck and bent as easily as a model sword.

Then Kang So-young retrieved her dagger from her throat and bent it again with her own finger, she said.

“As you can see, my dagger ‘Yeoubi’ is not so easily bent and sharp as usual. But it reads the user’s mind and sharpens only for a very short time when there is an intention to attack.”

“… Okay. It’s just like the name.”

She pretended to be calm, but her words were cold. Kang So-young’s eyes and actions a while ago made her feel as if she would kill people at any moment.

At the same time, she wondered if it was necessary to actually show what could have been explained in her own words, but she decided to keep those words in her heart because it would make training more difficult. .

No matter how careless she was, just looking at her movements, her speed was as fast as Kang Hyeon-seok or even faster.

He’s a person who still has bad feelings for me, but it’s not nice to mess with him.

“So, can we start now? Regarding her training, she listened to the lady yesterday and called guild leader Kang Hyeon-seok to ask, so don’t worry and just follow me.”

“Yes, I understand.”

“And try with the best of your abilities. Even using magic power.”

“I will do that.”

When my answer failed, Kang So-young, unlike Kang Hyeon-seok, stood in front of me, still holding her dagger. On the other hand, I raised her mana by raising her guard while holding her fist lightly as standard.

‘I still can’t feel any magic, this person.’

She has some confidence in her ability to detect magic, but strangely, she couldn’t notice it as much as this person.

Thanks to that, considering Kang So-young’s ability to capture magical powers, I wondered if she might have a fighting style that was better at surprise rather than long-term head-on combat.

Of course, he seemed much stronger than me.

‘Anyway, did he just keep staring at me like this?’

Unlike Kang Hyeon-seok’s multiple attacks, which made it difficult to measure the timing, there was no particular attack.

We are just facing each other and confronting each other.

Just when I wondered if I might be misunderstanding the contents of the training, Kang So-young suddenly burst out with a terrifying life.

And then, Kang So-yeong’s gray magic enveloped her whole body as if hitting her.

“Are you not concentrating properly?”

Kang So-yeong, who was facing her, approached her as if she had teleported again, gave her a word as if to warn her, and then jumped up as if her spring had bounced off her, and hit her hard on my abdomen with her knee.

“Ugh.”

With the scream of her short-haired horse, her body leaned forward in pain.

In the meantime, Kang So-yeong burrowed behind me.

Then, bending one of her defenseless arms, she whirled the dagger in her hand, which she was holding in her free hand, and brought it precisely to the vicinity of her carotid artery.

Something that happened in a very brief moment. If this was a real battle, he would have already been killed by Kang So-young.

“Isn’t it natural that everyone doesn’t use the same attack method as guild leader Kang Hyeon-seok? Rather, it is more common to end something simple and clear in an instant like this.”

Kang So-young removed her arm from her hold and the dagger from her neck, she said.

She couldn’t help but admit that she had a complacent thought that Kang So-young’s words would match her training without her knowledge.

This is probably what Hyeonseok Kang meant to practice with someone else.

“Then I will go really well now. It was meant as a test to find out how much it was just now.”

With those words, she felt the strength of her Kang So-young once again, but she also received a different stimulus from her, so she took a posture once again.

“Please!”

In response to my answer, Kang So-young raised her dagger to the vicinity of her chest and held it in her reverse hand.

“Concentrate, otherwise you might get really hurt this time.”

With that said, the full-scale training began.

*

Puck.

Again, Kang So-yeong kicked and fell helplessly to the floor.

I don’t know how many times I’ve already rolled on the floor today.

The most unfair thing among them is that even though there is pain for a moment, it is not fatal, so you can get back up right away.

The fact that he has improved his skills compared to before also played a part.

So-Young Kang uses a completely different training method from Hyeon-Seok Kang, striking and hitting her very efficiently, giving her a practice partner.

It is said that they are hurting and inflicting great pain on the line that does not interfere with training, but why is it that it feels more vicious from the point of view of the victim?

“Wake up, Wonwoo. I didn’t price that hard.”

“Whoa….”

He sighed and stood up.

When I arrived in the morning and looked at the clock, it was already around 3pm. I’ve been doing this without lunch, so now I’m starting to get tired.

Kang So-yeong looked at me like that and then she said.

“If possible, I prefer to let him think on his own, but Wonwoo seems to think too much, so I’ll just say something very briefly.”

I don’t know if I was satisfied with the bullying so far or if I felt sorry for him now, but I listened to the sudden advice.

“The content itself is not a big deal. It’s a bit vulgar, but I think it’s the right word, so I’ll say it.”

Kang So-young paused her words for a moment, then continued.

“What are you so afraid of?”

From Kang So-young’s mouth, words that can be said to be of poor dignity, which are hard to hear normally came out. Because she was always cautious in her speech.

Why is she so scared, she said. But her words filled her with doubts. She couldn’t understand the meaning of those words because it was clear that she was scared of Kang So-yeong or anything like that.

“I didn’t want to say that, but in fact, the compatibility between me and a type like Wonwoo is atrocious.”

I thought so too. It’s hard to detect magic power and it’s faster than me. Overwhelmingly, I was considered at a disadvantage.

However, the meaning of the words that came out of Kang So-young’s mouth was completely different.

“I am at an overwhelming disadvantage. If it were my current mission, I would have chosen to flee or avoid all-out war. Because Wonwoo is very good at detecting magic power.”

“Secretary, but as you probably already know, he is the only person I have met who cannot detect magic….”

I tried to raise an objection, but Kang So-young denied it with a rather firm voice.

“Is that so? That’s all the hints I can give you. But what I can say for sure is that I don’t think there’s anyone who can help Wonwoo-nim as much as I do when it comes to learning the [Counterattack] Skill. See you again tomorrow.”

From noble mtl dot com

Kang So-young opens the door to her training ground and leaves as if she has already finished what she has to say. Looking at her back, she seemed to know the answer to something.

After she disappeared, she sat down on the training ground floor. Unlike her exhausted body, Kang So-young’s words kept ringing in her head.

‘I’d rather be in an advantageous situation?’

No matter how much she thought about it, she couldn’t figure out the meaning of Kang So-yeong’s hint.
