chapter 88
88 – Special Training (2)
Right after finishing the test training.
Returning to my room, I was watching the training video from earlier again.
“At this timing… No, did you predict it a number faster than that?”
Exactly the way I trained in games before, I was getting a sense of how to train in real life.
Since I was holding on to the video like this, I felt like I was a genuine gamer from the past, so it was fun.
“….. That’s right. Back then, I only played games without thinking…”
…….
Things have changed a lot now.
I had already realized for a long time the impact my actions would have on this world.
Since an unknown and unknown enemy has also appeared, it is necessary to prepare more thoroughly.
“Not only Bell, but also me…? Okay. I get the rough idea.”
Now the analysis is over.
If it’s something that can lead to a method of predicting an attack with certainty, then there’s nothing I can do with that side’s training anymore.
You get your senses.
Therefore, the part I need to intervene is mobility and firepower…
“I don’t know if it’s mobility, but there are people who are qualified for firepower…”
Well. Because it seems like we’ve always been friends.
Besides, we’ll have to work together as colleagues from now on, so it wouldn’t matter if we checked each other’s strength.
……
I’m worried about something.
Am I missing something somewhere?
“….. It’s all right, right?”
————————————————————————- —
No.
It must have been something special.
“……. Ha. Are you really thinking of putting a bell in?”
“Uh, uh. That’s right, but…”
“………”
What are you going to do? This awkward atmosphere.
Isn’t it more serious than before?
Besides, it’s not just awkward, it’s an awkward atmosphere for some reason.
Could it have something to do with Bell not being seen for several days?
“Wait a minute. It seems like the two of us have something to say. It’s a matter of mutual understanding…”
“….. Convince? What kind of consent are you talking about?”
“….. Yes. It’s a serious conversation between women.”
“Hmm. Okay.”
A conversation between women.
There’s nothing we can do about it if you come out so resolutely.
Just just.
Contrary to my anxious feelings, I just pray that things will go smoothly.
————————————————————————- —
I had warned you before, but I felt it vaguely.
“…….”
That woman in front of me, that she might come back.
It’s a very complicated feeling, but there was nothing more I could do on this side.
That man pretended to be insensitive in this part, because he was the kind of person who just went overboard.
But that’s it, and this is this.
“Hmm…..Yes. She’s back at last.”
“…… It’s been here since the beginning. My place is.”
“Really? Then… You must have thought about what I said before.”
Apart from understanding, it is the realm of understanding.
“So. Are you ready?”
“…….”
“I don’t want the resolution I spit out at that time to be in vain.”
If you still have the bell from before.
It’s not even worth thinking about.
She has no right, no reason, no ability to be by his side.
Come on. What kind of answer did Bell have prepared?
“……. Don’t get me wrong.”
“….. What?”
Somehow, it seems that there has been a bit of an extreme change.
“I mean, just because you’ve been around a little longer, don’t set your own qualifications.”
“……. Hmm.”
“My fate is decided by me. So, don’t try to stop me with such determination.”
Those eyes.
It is an eye that is dying as if it is about to fade, yet harbors only one longing inside.
Like.
Enough to remind me of my former self.
As soon as I thought that, a feeling of displeasure enveloped my body.
It seemed that such a mistake was felt even more severely because it had already been tightly wrapped up and buried beneath it for a long time.
“To be honest. I feel bad.”
“………”
“You don’t know how painful it is to be by your side with those thoughts.”
Complacent, arrogant.
Will she be able to survive at the last moment?
“But… It’s still better than before.”
“…… Be quiet.”
“Now I’ve barely crossed the starting line, I’ll admit it.”
But it’s not bad.
In a position where victory is already certain, it is more fun to have a competitor on the edge than an intrusive bug.
After raising it to the same level as me, I will make you realize the gap at that height.
“I hope you continue to work with that level of determination in the future.”
“Sounds natural.”
“It’s hard. Let go of your expression. Accel will be surprised to see it.”
“…….!!”
He is like a child who is still not used to controlling his emotions.
It’s okay to look a little cute.
“Come with me. If you have no choice but to join me, shouldn’t you have at least that much power?”
“Whoa….. Okay.”
“I’ll tell you in advance, but of course I don’t intend to watch it.”
“This is what I’m going to say. Don’t even try to look at it.”
————————————————————————- —
“………”
It’s bloody.
I can’t hear it, but it’s like silent pressure.
It feels like a breathtaking nervous warfare is unfolding, as if beams are coming out of each other’s eyes.
Finally, after the tense exchange of glances, the two entered the field for training, when Killia appeared from behind and started talking to them.
“Wow…. Women’s war of nerves is scary, isn’t it?”
“…… Are you here?”
“You can give me a softer answer.”
Ha ha.
Another useless sound.
“So, why did you call me today…? Maybe you miss me…”
“Didn’t we already explain everything? Let’s stop talking nonsense and we’ll get ready soon.”
“Yes. You’re just bouncing around…”
I’m preparing a lot for Bell’s promotion match and all, but that doesn’t mean I can’t rest.
Of course, for the promotion match this time, there is also the seat I currently occupy.
Undoubtedly, the current second-in-command, Yoo Jung-min, and Kyler, who is under him, will also aim for my position.
For training in preparation for him, I called the strongest person I knew, and that was only Killia.
“But actually, you’ve already defeated me, right? I might not be enough as a training opponent…”
“…Don’t joke around. At that time, the situation induced this side’s advantage in the first place.
“You’re overestimating me quite a bit…? Well… I’m not saying it’s wrong…”
Look.
That smirking smile.
Now it seems like you are my colleague, but…
The thought that I could turn my back at any moment never gets out of my head.
“Then I’m ready. This time I don’t need to look at it. I’m going to attach it properly.”
“Yes. Now, shall we begin?”
So now, at this moment.
There is no choice but to get as much development as possible.
————————————————————————- —
.
.
Come on. Time passed and the day of the promotion match dawned.
Unlike other big events in the past, the Promotion Match started in an academy-like atmosphere that was not open to the outside world.
It’s probably the most sensitive time s*xually, so he probably didn’t want unnecessary controversy to spread.
Even if that’s not the reason, there are things that try to exclude external factors as much as possible in order to record and analyze the game, but let’s leave that out for now.
“Two cadets. Please enter.”
“Ah, starting soon.”
There is still time before my promotion match arrives, so I came down first to watch Bell’s match aiming for promotion to class A.
“Left camp. Class B’s Arna Bell. Are you ready?”
“…Yes…!”
“Okay. Right side. Chief Lane cadet from Class A. Are you ready?”
“…… No problem.”
Bell, who has improved rapidly recently, and Chief Rain, an extra you may not know, who is experiencing a decline even within Class A.
It seemed that who would win was already decided, but let’s focus on the process a little more.
“The match field is an urban area. The method to determine the winner is one match. Any fighting method that does not violate the academy rules is permitted. If both sides are ready… Let’s start now…..!”
As soon as the referee finished speaking, the two were sent to the field.
It’s a city.
Depending on the situation, it can be advantageous or disadvantageous to the shooter.
It is advantageous to preoccupy a high position first or to be able to identify the opponent’s position first, but in a narrow space, both the front and side matches can be disadvantageous to the shooter.
Personally, I’d like to see how to solve this…
“…… Cadet Kim Ga-sok?”
“… Yes? Did you call me?”
“Yes. There is an opponent who has applied for the 1st place promotion match. I think you should start preparing for the match from now on.”
Right now is just the right moment to have fun, but the call suddenly hits the candle.
By the way, someone already called me?
It is said that it is afternoon, but there will be no one to apply to me right now.
Yoo Jung-min and Kyler still have to accept applications from the bottom.
Wouldn’t it be normal for the promotion match, which determines the 1st place, to be held at the very end?
“So. Who is the applicant?”
“……… Ah. I’ll explain as we move……”
“Ah. I thought I was trying to say something…”
Well.
I must have moved quite quickly, and I was running away before the referee’s words to inform me were finished.
Well, when we arrived, we could see who had walked.
“Have you arrived. Cadet Kim Ga-sok?”
“Yes. I am, but… Where is my opponent?”
“He’s walking out in front of you.”
What I saw in front of my eyes as I looked ahead after hearing those words.
“…..It’s been a while, isn’t it? It’s not training, it’s a duel like this.”
“……… Yoo Chun-hwa?”
It was none other than Yoo Chun-hwa.
Why are you here?
