53 – Deep thoughts and deep questions

“………Ugh…”

“Ah, are you awake?”

Slowly, the closed eyes begin to open.

I hear the voice of a young man, not the familiar healer sister’s voice I’ve always heard.

I raised my head in awkwardness and looked around, and the surroundings were filled with glowing effects.

“Hey… Is this?”

“Oh, you don’t have to worry too much about it. In the case of the academy match, the situation is special, so you can think of it as a special device that can heal all wounds in one day.”

In the words of the man who answered, somehow he seemed to feel pride.

Oh, surely there was such a setting.

Certainly, having a new game scheduled for the very next day after a hit and run like this is, realistically… Anyway, that’s not the point.

“What time is it?”

“Oh, it’s 8:00 PM now. It’s been about 8 hours since you collapsed and came back after the game. Would you like to move?”

I see.

When I opened my eyes, the game schedule was over before I knew it. I’m glad it’s not the same development.

I got up from my seat and warmed up lightly to check my physical condition, but it turned out more neatly than I thought.

In particular, the left arm seems to move better.

“Isn’t there anything special?”

“Oh, yes.”

“Now, the treatment is almost finished, and if you wake up tomorrow morning, the rest of the minor muscle pain should be completely healed. If you have any problems, just call the manager.”

“Thank you.”

After such a formal conversation, I had time to myself again.

Apparently, there seemed to be a lot of things to think about about my current situation.

If I were to say that my biggest concern is the way I fight.

I am worried because there are so many conspicuous problems.

The first is the unity of the pattern.

The fighting pattern is fixed every time.

While somehow dodging the opponent’s attack, take advantage of the opponent’s carelessness to attack at high speed.

From noble mtl dot com

When I first conceived it, I thought it would be an almost invincible strategy in theory if there was an overwhelming difference in speed stats.

I thought it would be possible to clear enough with just this ignorant one pattern.

But, of course, that’s the story from the perspective of the game.

After actually going through a few battles, I realized that this is not the case at all.

Unlike games, there are too many variables here.

It’s not like you can see the enemy’s attack on the monitor screen, and it’s because I can’t even use all of my 999 speed.

Under such circumstances, sticking to this pattern alone is foolish.

I have to make a change somehow, and this leads to the second worry.

It is about my body and weapons.

The weapon I am currently using, the gauntlet, is very good for utilizing the speed stat, and I chose it because it was the only option given to me when I just fell into this world, but now I need to think again. There is.

And, due to the [Overimmersion] Attribute, you have to find a way to solve the problem of this body whose stats don’t increase well.

At this point, I absolutely can’t handle the enemies that pop up in the second half.

At least the basic level should be adjusted.

“To that end, what I desperately needed right now was the winning prize of this competition…”

Just one is not enough.

It would mean a lot to me if I just supplemented the lack of physical strength right now, but in the end, it doesn’t mean anything if the fighting pattern is the same.

What I need is the following.

A second, fundamentally different countermeasure is needed.

In the current situation, if I had to consider an option, I would polish the new skill called [Shunbo] And bring it down to the extent that it could be used in actual combat.

Trying to figure out another way to utilize the speed stat.

Or…..

[Overimmersion]

[Special]

[The boundary separating the game and reality is blurred, and it is possible to immerse yourself in one side as you can move between the two.]

[Passive – Look at the world from the perspective of the game. Observing a situation from a step back provides an extra boost to judgment and composure. In return, the degree of immersion in reality is lacking, and the improvement of stats and the effect of correction are limited.]

[Active 1: Over Immersion – Momentarily immerse the mind into the real world, and for a certain period of time (1 minute), the insufficient stat effort value, correction effect, and concentration on the battle situation are given to the maximum.]

[Active 2: ??? – It has not been unlocked.]

[???]

[Special]

[Release conditions have not been released yet.]

Well, the characteristics of the two [Special] Categories that have not yet been revealed.

If the other two traits exert an extreme but very outstanding effect, like the current [Active 1] Effect of over-immersion, the fighting style itself will be able to change from that point on.

This is a lump of unknowns at all, although the flaw is that there is nothing you can do about it.

I continued to think about finding a solution, but it felt like I was facing an impenetrable wall.

To clear my complicated mind for a moment, I approach the window of the hospital room.

When I open the window, the cool night air wakes me up.

‘…What the hell do I want to do? What should I do from now on… No.’

Pair!

Calm down.

There are so many tasks to be done in the future.

In order to solve these tasks in the first place, it is necessary to build a minimum foundation after all.

‘For the next three days, I’m going to set aside complicated thoughts for a while and focus only on the competition.’

So, just as I was about to force myself to sleep in order to prepare for tomorrow’s battle again, my bedside cell phone alarm went off.

When I checked, there was a message from Yoo Chun-hwa.

[Chunhwa Yoo]

[Are you awake?]

[If you wake up, can I visit you now?]

[I have something to say about the match tomorrow…]

What about the contents, it must have been something to ask in order to prepare for tomorrow’s competition.

Surely there will be a 6:6 team battle tomorrow.

It is still too early for her to fall asleep, and she has no specific reason or justification for her refusal, so she tries to send her an answer saying that she will know,

Smart.

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door of the hospital room.

Let’s get up at that sound and open the door to the hospital room.

“Who are you… Kilia? What happened at this hour…”

“Hello? I want to ask you something…”

What is it? What is she going to ask me?

Suddenly in the current situation?

Moreover, judging from the fact that she lengthened her words by saying ‘Yo’, it was to the point that her current state of mind was uncomfortable.

It’s not just one thing that worries me.

Her intuition tells her to reject it sharply, but if she refuses to visit her now, something bad will happen.

I’d like to send it back as quickly as possible.

“….. Haa. Come in first…”

“Aren’t you being too shy? You said you’d come to visit me in the first place. Besides, even though I’m one year older than you, the way you treat me is too much…”

“No, you told me to stop talking in the first place. Is it now? Besides, I didn’t expect you to come to me like this.”

“No matter how much it is, I’ve never been told to be colossal like that…”

“…… I think my personality is like this..”

“……..&”

What is it? Suddenly, goose bumps all over her body.

Her

She turned around and looked at her, her unknown subtle smile, she was looking in my direction.

“As expected… Um. I’d rather do that… Because I think it’ll be a lot more fun this way…”

Until I mumbled her incomprehensible words, my senses were reacting like crazy.

Now, it was warning me that it was very dangerous.

“Now what…”

“No. I’m going to ask only what I need to ask quickly.”

“Oh, uh. Yes.”

“I’m going to ask you nothing else…”

After I thoughtlessly skipped over it, the topic she brought up as her question was,

“Do you know about [Cheonakhoe]?”

Out of my range of thinking, he hit me and came in.

…….

What the hell is my point when she brings up this question?

What kind of reaction should I have?

“…… I know the name. It turned out that the culprit in the raid on our academy last time belonged to them.”

“Hmm… So that’s how it goes…?”

Things are going crazy right now.

Every time a question is spit out, the atmosphere rapidly becomes stuffy.

“Then, do you know about the various subunits that exist in the Cheonakkai?”

“No, that’s it…”

“There are teams in charge of various information, a group of fanatics who actually take action, a religious leader who directs everything from above, and various other teams, but…”

“…….”

“Among them, there is a special task force called [Dezire]. Do you know?”

As she continues to speak, her breath begins to choke.

“……Never heard of it.”

“Hmm. Then can I tell you more?”

“No, stop for a moment. What the hell do you want to say…”

“Did you know that as a member of the Desire, there is a wizard with long black hair and dark purple eyes who mainly deals with dark magic?”

“…….”

“What the hell, how long are you going to hide it?”

Somehow, I felt like I was firmly imprisoned.

“hehehe…”

In an instant, the room darkened, and the surrounding mana began to press against my neck.

The thickened magic power didn’t seem to allow my body to even resist the pressure.

Killia is gradually approaching me.

Her dark eyes met mine.

“Now, can you tell me? How the hell did you find out who I am…”

Somehow, it seems that I was wrong to survive.

I guess my life has ended here.

“Again, why didn’t you bring up my story after finding out… hehehe. Now, let’s have a good chat…? The night is still… Long…..? &”

Please save me.

“…… Why the hell is there no reply…”

‘You mean what you sent earlier? Well, he would have been tired after a fierce battle like that, so to say he was at least asleep…’

“No. The read mark has been erased…”

At the same time, in Yoo Chun-hwa’s room, Rachel and Yoo Chun-hwa were having a conversation.

“Why… Why don’t you reply now…? Ha…”

‘…Why don’t you wait a bit? That he’s not a character to be ignored…’

“No. I can’t wait any longer. The fact that there is no reply even after reading it in the first place can be seen as meaning that I gave permission, right?”

‘…….’

Rachel was looking at Cheonhwa, which had changed so much from before, with cold eyes, but it was already too late.

“Hmm, hmm. Then, shall we go to the hospital room…?”

‘…….I don’t know anymore. Acceleration.’

Her steps begin to head toward the heart of the case.
