chapter 29
Episode 29 Metamorphosis (1)
Cha Hyeon-ho strongly stretched out his hand toward Kang Seo-jun and gritted his teeth.
“Ugh… Profit!”
Since I couldn’t cast magic, I was planning to use instant magic several times to knock that wretched body down.
However,
[ The Eye of Providence interprets the opponent’s magic. ]
“Dispel.”
-Park! Paang! Pop!
Cha Hyeon-ho’s hastily condensed magical powers burst like soap bubbles before they could take shape, let alone being ejected.
-Beetle.
“Ugh…!”
For a moment, the pulse of mana was cut off and Cha Hyeon-ho became dizzy before his eyes.
That moment of intense dizziness.
When Cha Hyun-ho barely managed to keep his balance and opened his eyes,
-Whoop! Phew!
The red tumor monster was raising its magic wand high in front of its nose.
“Ah, evil…!”
-Boo!
A blunt object soon fell with force onto Cha Hyun-ho’s head.
“Ha, Hangbook…!!”
Cha Hyun-ho declared defeat, holding his head with both hands.
-Beep!
Almost at the same time, the sparring ended with Kim Joo-hee violently striking her family member.
[The constellations admire your honorable duel.]
[The constellations are amazed by your appropriate strategy.]
[The constellation “Wise Old Snake” Sponsors you with dimensional currency.]
[The constellation “Indomitable Shield” Sponsors you with dimensional currency.]
[The constellation 《Sage of Distant Ridge》 sponsors you with dimensional currency.]
[The constellation “The One Who Shines Brightly” Sponsors you with dimensional currency.]
.
.
It was a clean victory for Kang Seo-jun.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★
-Chang!
-Kyaang!
After Kang Seo-jun and Cha Hyun-ho’s sparring, the cadets continued their passionate sparring.
Kim Joo-hee looked at Kang Seo-jun with her bright eyes.
‘It’s a dispel that’s almost instantaneous….’
Even for Kim Joo-hee, who has worked with various active players as an A-class hunter, the performance that Kang Seo-jun just showed was truly impressive.
– Balgre.
‘You’re so cool!!’
Kim Joo-hee.
Her preference was for capable men.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★
The sparring class ended with Kang Seo-jun’s victory, and with this, the first hurdle was overcome.
But he still had many, many mountains to overcome.
Now, we have only crossed one very small peak.
I somehow overcame the sparring because it was a training held in a small space, but if I were to enter a dungeon or field mission, I would definitely fail with my current spec.

‘If you want to survive the actual training that will follow, you must quickly and somehow resolve the physical debuffs.’
◆Characteristics
[Hunchback Lv. Lowest], [Club Lv. Lowest], [Twisted Arm Lv. Lowest]
The debuff characteristics that Kang Seo-jun wanted to solve this time were these three.
After deciding on his goal, Kang Seo-jun first inserted a white syringe into his twisted arm.
It was a ‘hometown anti-cancer injection’ bought at a dimension store.
-Shooooo!
The vacuumed injection is sucked into Kang Seo-jun’s body.
“Umm…!”
The effect is immediate.
The disc weighed down by the tumor felt much refreshed, and breathing also improved.
If the cancer was in the terminal or stage 4, anti-cancer injections would not be of much help, but if the cancer is managed consistently in this way from stage 3, it will soon be possible to lower the cancer to stage 2.
After taking a few deep breaths, Kang Seo-jun poured three large pills into his mouth and passed them along with Jeong-su.
[You have taken an insect repellent! The man-eating parasite goes into a state of stupor! ]
If the growth rate of man-eating parasites is slowed down as much as possible in this way, it is still safe.
However, it is a situation where there is a fixed expenditure in dimensional currency.
I am using the ‘Business All-Purpose Moisturizer’ on my skin and the ‘Business Cleaning Spray’ on my bed to prevent diseases, so my fixed expenses were greater than I expected.
◆Characteristics
[Hunchback Lv. Lowest], [Club Lv. Lowest], [Twisted Arm Lv. Lowest]
It is not that there is no means in the dimension store to treat these three things at once, but it cannot be used in a situation where fixed expenses are incurred every day.
Therefore, other means had to be used.
Tomorrow is the weekend.
“I will solve two of those three issues during the weekend.”
Kang Seo-jun had a plan.
I’m going to catch a mine.
The target is the necklace that the demon has.
However, the necklace itself is not that valuable.
That’s why you need to purchase several materials from the dimension store and then combine them to skyrocket the price.
The original combination probability is extremely low, but a creative economy is possible thanks to 50 luck.
And then sell it back to the store and use the currency of that dimension to buy the ‘Business World Reconstruction Serum’.
“Two to get rid of club feet, two to get rid of a twisted arm, and three to get rid of a hunchback.”
There are a total of 7 ‘world reconstruction serums’ needed to repair the distorted body.
Kang Seo-jun planned to obtain at least three reconstruction serums through this plan.
“Then at least we can fix the hunchback or the twisted half of the limb.”
◆Heavenly Demon God Technique
※This product is not yet available for purchase. [Reason: lack of dimensional currency, lack of required abilities, lack of required conditions.]
In order to learn Wang Gui’s essential skill, Heavenly Demon Godkong, you had to remove the debuffs that block physical growth as quickly as possible and grow the necessary stats.
-Tut-duh-duh.
At that time, a dry ringtone rang on Kang Seo-jun’s smartphone.
When I looked at the sender, I felt sad.
– Kuuk.
“Hello?”
“Yes. What’s going on?”
“Oh, that’s good then.”
You’re lucky, Kang Seo-jun thought.
“Will you repay the favor and help me with one task?”
★ ★ ★ ★ ★
A small cafe near the academy.
Kang Seo-jun suggested that we meet and talk because he had something to tell.
Not long after, Seo Eun-ha heard something shocking from Kang Seo-jun.
“……Administration Department Director Kim…. Mine…?”
“Yes. To be exact, he is a spy to steal internal information from Sungjin Group.”
He delivered shocking information that there was a Mine spy among the Sungjin Group executives.
“No… Uh, something like that…”
No matter how extraordinary the appearances Kang Seo-jun has shown so far were, it was difficult to believe this much.
“I know you’ll find it hard to believe. That’s why I prepared this.”
Kang Seo-jun handed a beautifully crafted glass bottle to Seo Eun-ha.
It was the ‘favored saint’s holy water’ that Kang Seo-jun often used.
“What is this?”
Seo Eun-ha asked, looking at the sparkling liquid in the glass bottle.
“To an ordinary person, it’s just water, but to a person, it’s like hydrochloric acid. If you sprinkle this on Director Kim Hak-yong, you will know whether what I say is true or not.”
Seo Eun-ha sprinkled some of her saint’s holy water on her table and then carefully touched it with her fingertips.
The water droplets on the table sparkled beautifully, but when I touched them, they were no different from ordinary water.
-Swooooop!
Kang Seo-jun took a deep breath from his downtown asthma respirator and continued speaking.
“Director Kim Hak-yong also comes to work on Saturdays and will get off work around 8 PM. It would probably be best to approach him from the parking lot when he gets off work.”
“Uh, how could something like that…”
It is said that executives at Sungjin Group appear on the company website, but how do they know his patterns so well?
‘The guy who hits Sungjin Group hard on the back of the head in the latter half of the game will be eliminated here early.’
Currently, Kang Seo-jun’s specs are an unmatched opponent, but with Seo Eun-ha and her security team, it is possible.
“Take this too.”
Kang Seo-jun held out the hilt of a sword without a blade to Seo Eun-ha.
“This… What is it again?”
“You can use it when the guy reveals his true form. To use it, just infuse mana into the hilt. Ah, it’s a sword, so be careful.”
As Seo Eun-ha carefully infused mana into her sword, a pure white sword body emerged from the sword hilt.
“Huh, huh?!”
Seo Eun-ha quickly dissipated her mana and placed her sword hilt on the table.
“Where do these relics come from?”
It was an artifact made by Kang Seo-jun last night by purchasing materials from the dimension store and combining them.
“That’s not important. All I ask is that you reveal the identity of Kim Hak-yong and deliver to me the necklace that person had.”
Kang Seo-jun looked at Seo Eun-ha.
“Can I ask you a favor?”
“Umm…”
His request is absolutely absurd, but it’s not that difficult to sprinkle holy water on a person.
Then, if Director Kim Hak-yong really turns into Mine, you just have to do as he says.
If things don’t change, all you have to do is write a letter of condolences.
This is a request from a person who saved his life once from Mukcheol trap and once from Guibul, and it comes from a man who has a strange amount of information, so on the other hand, I felt an obligation to at least check it properly.
“I’m not asking you to arrest me from the beginning. I told you to sprinkle water on me first. I understand.”
Seo Eun-ha grabbed the hilt of her sword and put it on her waist.
“It would be best to bring at least three team members with you. Also, please deliver the necklace as quickly as possible.”
Once you obtain the necklace, you will finally be able to repair this strange body.
Kang Seo-jun smiled with anticipation, as if the necklace had already been placed in his hands.
