I Became the Handyman That the Heroines Are Obsessed With

Episode 32 – You can fix something like this? (2)

A verification process of my abilities requested by the president of Glesius Academy.

It was a request to fix myself, who had become younger due to the side effects of the elixir of rejuvenation.

But, how do I fix it?

“With my abilities, can I fix something like that?”

I have used my abilities to fix things, but I have never tried to fix people.

No, more than that, I could heal people with my abilities? I don’t know that either?

“You said it with your own mouth. The ability to fix everything. “Then doesn’t it mean that people can also be healed?”

The president asked me a question with the innocent look on his child’s face.

And there was only one thing I could say to her question.

“I don’t think I can do that because I don’t know where the limits of my abilities are.”

“Huh? “You don’t know the limits of your abilities?”

The president looked serious after hearing what I said.

Is it so serious that I don’t know the limits of my abilities?

So I looked at Shannon and saw that Shannon also had a serious face.

“Hey, is this such a serious surprise?”

I don’t know much about the ‘abilities’ that ability users receive as a gift from God.

So, I feel frustrated because I don’t know why they have such serious expressions.

“Ha… “I’m not from another world, so what’s going on?”

“It’s fascinating. “He is an ability user, but he doesn’t know the limits of his abilities.”

I was able to find out one piece of information from the conversation between the president and Shannon.

‘Ability users seem to instinctively know the limits of their abilities.’

After listening to the conversation between the two people, I closed my eyes, concentrated my mind, and tried to think about the limits of my abilities.

But when I try to think of the limits of my abilities, I don’t know where to set them as limits.

‘They say they can fix anything, but how far does the concept of fixing go?’

Instead, I focused on the word ‘fix.’ The word ‘fix’ is used a lot in everyday life.

For example, fixing something. This is a very basic usage method.

It also fixes other problems. Cure the disease fix the recipe Edit the contents of a book. Fix bugs in the program, etc.

The word ‘fix’ was used in many ways.

‘Huh? Wait for a sec. Then literally, if I think I can fix it, I can fix everything, right?’

If you think about it, what happened when I hit the hammer on the bread that had lost all of its moisture and hardened?

Hardness became soft, squishy became moist, and tough became chewy.

I even remember that the taste of chewing sawdust disappeared and I could feel the savory taste.

That means, we can assume that my ability to fix something somehow brings that object to its ‘best’ state.

If not, I think the object in question is ‘fixed’ only when I make up my mind to fix it.

Let’s put aside all complicated thoughts and come to the simplest conclusion possible… ….

‘It means that with my ability, I can cure the side effects that occurred when the President took the elixir of rejuvenation.’

As her president says, she can fix her problems with her own abilities.

But is it okay to hit someone with a hammer?

I took out a hammer from the sack I always carry with me, just in case.

An old hammer found at the place where we first met Epirina.

I was using the rusty hammer as is, except for replacing the broken handle.

“Huh?”

“Oh my?”

The president and Shannon’s mood became serious when I suddenly took out a hammer from the bag.

What is it? Who do you think I’m going to kill with this hammer?

“President. “It is definitely not what the president thinks.”

“What was I thinking? But why did you suddenly take out the hammer?”

“Yes? No, I want you to cure the side effects that occurred after taking the elixir of rejuvenation.”

The president didn’t seem to understand that I had taken out the hammer.

Ah, is it because there isn’t enough explanation on how I use my powers?

“My ability is the ability to fix anything. But to use it, you have to use this hammer.”

“Uh, how do I fix it?”

“It’s simple. “With a sincere desire to fix something, just hit the object you want to fix with a hammer three times.”

“…… Gulp.”

When the President and Shannon heard how I used my abilities, they swallowed their saliva.

The sound was so loud that it could be heard even in my ears, which were slightly away from the two people.

“It’s okay. “It doesn’t hurt.”

I was hesitant because I thought it would hurt if I got hit by a hammer, so I said it didn’t hurt.

It’s not like I’m hitting the hammer hard in the first place.

“Well, hey, no, are you really okay? “You just don’t have to fix it!”

“No, you said you would verify my abilities by fixing the side effects?”

I didn’t understand the president’s retreat.

No, he said he would test my abilities first, so why did he run away when I said he would get my abilities tested?

“Hey, over there. “I’ll hit you with no pain, so just stay still.”

I held the hammer and walked slowly as I approached the president.

“Ugh, ugh! No! I don’t like it! “I don’t want to be sick!”

The president started to back away, bursting into tears, probably because he was scared of me.

“Ugh! Shannon! Help me! “I don’t want to die!”

“Ugh.”

Shannon sighed at the president’s request and stepped between me and the president.

“Well, I’m sorry. “I think the president was bored or just said it as a joke, but he seemed very embarrassed when he actually said he would test his abilities.”

“Yes?”

I couldn’t hide my embarrassment at Shannon’s words that blocked my path.

No, you said you wanted to test your abilities first, but then why did you act like that when you actually came forward to test your abilities?

“If you think about it, can you cure the side effects? “I just have to hit it three times with a hammer?”

“Well, I wasn’t going to tell you about this, but in fact, there is one more side effect of the elixir of rejuvenation other than becoming too young.”

“Yes? “What do you mean by that?”

I was once again taken aback by the words coming out of Shannon’s mouth.

No, it’s an elixir of rejuvenation? What kind of elixir has so many side effects?

“Actually, after taking the elixir, the president has changed into someone who likes to play pranks on trivial things. The problem is that when the person he pranks on turns out to be serious, he gets embarrassed and gets scared and then bursts into tears.”

“Huhhhhh. Sorry. I won’t do that again. “hehehehe.”

“… ….”

I saw the president crying behind Shannon.

The president has the appearance of a child who has just graduated from elementary school.

Seeing a child crying like that makes me feel sad somehow.

“Ugh, I understand. Well, if you want to fix the side effects later, come visit us. “I’ll really fix it then.”

I sat down and put the hammer back into the bag.

“Now, President. Pop!”

“Keuung, pop.”

Shannon skillfully calmed the president down, as this seemed to have happened often.

The president, who was pouring out all her tears and snot, took out her handkerchief and wiped away all her snot and tears.

Only after the atmosphere had calmed down to some extent was the conversation between me and the president able to take place again.

“Well, I’m sorry. “I looked a little ugly, unbecoming of an elder.”

“No. “They say it’s a side effect of the elixir, but it can’t be helped.”

“Heung. “I don’t do this all the time, but the side effects seem to have gotten worse recently.”

“Is that so?”

I decided to just accept the president’s excuse that it was because the side effects were getting worse and move on.

Because I was a little mentally exhausted from asking for no reason.

“Then why did you want to test my abilities?”

“Because it’s amazing. The ability to fix everything. “If what you say is true, this is the first and only ability that has never been discovered.”

When the conversation began again, the President began to participate in the conversation with his eyes shining.

The crybaby from earlier had disappeared, and now she looked like a girl full of curiosity.

“Is that so? Then you can experience it yourself…….”

“Hmm, I think it might be possible now.”

“Really? “Then let’s test it right now!”

When the rector responded positively to the test, I unzipped his sack and took out his hammer.

“Hey, over there! But the sledgehammer is a bit scary, right? “Can’t I use a different hammer?”

When I picked up the sledgehammer, the president waved his hand and tried to stop me from using the sledgehammer.

“Another hammer?”

I asked the president if he had another hammer.

“Uh, yes! “Shannon, do you know where I can find a low-impact hammer?”

“Wait a minute.”

The president asked Shannon where the low-impact hammer was, and Shannon rummaged around the president’s office for a while and took out a rubber mallet from a box piled up on one side.

“What is this?”

“This is a low-impact hammer. It was made by dwarven craftsmen with expertise in architecture to use when working on tiles…….”

If I were to sum up the president’s explanation in one word, it would be that it was a rubber mallet used at tile work sites.

A hammer head made of elastic material absorbs shock and prevents damage to the target?

I picked up the rubber, no, low-impact hammer that Shannon gave me.

It is said that it was made by dwarves, and although the handle was short, the hammer head was relatively light compared to other hammers, making it easy to swing.

“Okay, now let’s treat the side effects of the elixir of rejuvenation.”

“Ugh.”

“Please close your eyes first. “When the ability is activated, a halo of light will appear and your eyes will hurt if you open them.”

When the president told me to close my eyes, I closed them tightly.

Then I went to her bedside and struck the rector’s head with the impact hammer in her hand.

―Puck!

A sound like hitting a punching bag rang out from the president’s head.

I struck it two or three times without hesitation.

―Puck! Puck!

A sound like a sandbag being struck rang out a couple of times, but nothing happened to the president’s body.

“Okay, what is it? “Why isn’t anything happening?”

“Huh? “Why isn’t my ability activating?”

Just in case, I deliberately tore a piece of paper and hit it with a low-impact hammer, but nothing happened to the paper.

“What is it?”

So, just in case, I took out the iron hammer I had put in the bag and hit the paper.

―Just right! Perfect! Perfect!

From Noble mtl dot com

The cold sledgehammer was struck three times on the paper, and at the same time, a faint halo of light appeared on the paper, and the paper torn in half became one again.

“I guess the ability doesn’t activate with a low-impact hammer.”

“Well, that means…” ….”

I looked away from the president’s fearful gaze and looked at the sledgehammer in my hand.

What is the difference between the two hammers?

The hammer head of the low-impact hammer was not made of iron, and the hammer head of this hammer was made of iron.

Also, the hammer head I used at the Bergen chancellor’s house was made of iron.

“It seems like my abilities won’t be used unless the hammer head is made of iron?”

I laughed it off, but the president didn’t seem to like it.

“Well, I’ll just let the verification pass! Even with a low-impact hammer, there was quite a bit of impact, but if you hit your head with a sledgehammer, you could really die… I’d rather live with the side effects…….”

In the end, although I could not resolve the side effects that occurred to the president, I was able to figure out the only penalty to my abilities.

‘Ability is only revealed through a sledgehammer with an iron head.’

This was the only penalty for using the ability I have now.

Or, it may be the only condition for activating the ability.

“Shannon.”

“Yes.”

“Could you please catch the president?”

“Huh?”

I asked Shannon to catch the president.

If a man takes out a hammer, shouldn’t he fix something?

Shannon looked at my face and hugged the president from behind with a confident look.

“Ugh, ugh! Shannon! “What are you doing?”

“Stay still. President. “It’s a golden opportunity to fix the president’s side effects!”

“I hate poetry! I don’t like it! Help me! Help me!”

“It’s okay. It won’t hit you too hard, so don’t worry. “Inhale!”

I saw that while Shannon was tying up her rector, she walked up to her and struck her rector’s head three times with the sledgehammer in her hand.

As I said to the president, I hit the hammer on his head like a honey chestnut without applying any force.

―Kong! Okay! Okay!

A very slight sound rang out, and changes began to occur in the president’s body.

Shannon’s arm, which was holding on to the president, spontaneously relaxed and the president began to rise into the air.

Then, particles of light began to rush towards the President, and a clear group of lights, instead of the previous faint group of lights, began to cover the President’s body.

“Oh!”

“Well, what’s happening?”

Pure white light enveloped her chief’s body, and her group of lights surrounding her gradually began to increase in size.

The halo, which was initially about the size of a small girl, changed to the size of an adult woman.

And then the halo of light surrounding the president’s body disappeared in an instant, and the president, who was floating in the air, lightly came down to the ground as if nothing had happened.

The president who looked like a young girl no longer existed.

“Ha, yes. I feel this way. This feeling of being set free, rather than being trapped in a stuffy cage. “Has it been so long?”

The president standing here now had the appearance of a perfectly mature woman.
