chapter 34
034. Dalian (4)
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Tang-!
The sound of hitting the shield fills the training ground, and attacks pour down on Lee Yu-ri.
“…… Why why! Eyes!”
“Why the hell is the attack!”
The opponent cannot resist the provocation skill that forcibly attracts an attack, and is led helplessly.
“What kind of tanks are there!”
Her opponent, while being her flagship, slashed her sword at her with all her might.
I thought that if it attracted an attack, it would be enough to quickly deal with the tanker.
However, with an expressionless face, Lee Yu-ri avoided the opponent’s sword by taking half a step.
‘Jin Yuha’s sword is incomparable to this one.’
The sword she saw when she faced the Blood Goblin was deeply etched into her brain.
As soon as the sword was pulled from the waist, a flash of light was drawn in front of my eyes in an instant.
The boss monster didn’t even know that he had been cut himself and he was decapitated.
‘Can I block that sword then?’
To be honest, I had my doubts.
Lee Yuri dug deeper into the enemy camp.
Poof—!
Poof—!
Poof! Poof!
Kwaang—!
Enemy’s position composition is special to dealer set, healer. One each. It was an extremely offensive team.
The sword, the two-handed ax, and the pole are beaten.
And from far away, a special type alchemist threw a bomb.
However, all of those attacks did not cause significant damage to Lee.
Since he handles all attacks alone like that.
Hook!
Hook!
Hook!
Hook!
Hook!
The dealer on Lee Yu-ri’s side, who was hiding, fired a long spear and took out one by one.
Those who were sent out of the training ground in that order.
“Woah-! Leader! Are you really crazy today!?”
The dealer on Lee Yu-ri’s side, who threw a spear at the opponent a while ago. She said in a voice that made her feel somewhat deja vated.
‘The way he speaks is somewhat like Go Yoon-seo.’
It was a dealer that was included on the recommendation of Jin Yu-ha, but should I say Go Yoon-seo’s higher compatibility?
Not only her, but the others also definitely showed decent abilities.
I feel sorry for Go Yoon-seo and Choi So-yeon, but there was a huge difference in experience compared to when I was active in Carmella’s Forest before.
“…… I have someone I really need to deal with next week.”
Somehow, since he was a person with a familiar atmosphere, Lee Yu-ri spoke a little more comfortably.
I was wondering if I would have a sparring with Jin Yu-ha’s party today, but that didn’t happen.
It’s a bit of a pity, but on the contrary, it’s a complicated feeling that I’m glad I was able to prepare properly and deal with it.
Then Jjam Yun-seo put on a mischievous smile.
“Aha! That face genius!? My captain’s husband!”
“…… Hey you!”
“It’s already famous, right? Come to the dorm in the middle of the night. I don’t need heaven, it was you from the start. Then kiss with the moonlit night in the background!!!”
“Captain. Sorry, I’ll crack down on this guy.”
The short-haired supporter standing behind blocked Jjam Yun-seo’s mouth.
“…… But boss. Are there any strange rumors going around there?”
“…… Rumor?”
“Yeah, there are rumors that the winners of this group match are tentatively decided.”
“Because of Cheonhwa and the fighting dog? But are they wearing their magic restraints?”
“They say it’s nameless. And more than that……. There are rumors that they seem to be trying to push through the male quota system.”
“What…… ? Tell me in detail.”
Lee Yu-ri asked in bewilderment, and the supporter nodded and answered.
“Because there is a fight dog with Cheonhwa. After all, the victory is theirs, and if they neutralize the opponent, Jin Yu-ha steps in and strikes the last blow…… Called. There are rumors that they are trying to raise the male quota system introduced this time.”
Yuri Lee snorted at the absurd rumor.
“Damn it. You’ll know when you see it next week at the open sparring anyway.”
“Captain, is that man really that strong?”
Jjam Yunseo asked with a questioning face.
“Uh. It is on the same level as Cheonhwa or Fighting Dog. More than that.”
Lee Yu-ri nodded her head with a serious face.
“I honestly can’t believe it.”
“Why is such a man a male quota… ….”
That’s because of me. The word
Reached her throat, but Yurii swallowed it down.
“Ah, anyway! Never be careless What we need to be most careful about in that team is Jin Yu-ha, not Cheonhwa or dogfighting. I want you to follow my words completely this time.”
Lee Yuri ordered the party members to pay attention.
“Yes.”
“Okay.”
“We only trust the captain.”
“Right. He’s the head of a reliable soup.”
Yuri Lee earned the nickname of rice soup again here.
* * *
“Keuugh—!”
“Damn!!! I was careless about Cheonhwa and the dog fight!”
The third sparring followed after the second sparring.
Both of those couples went the same way as the first one.
My strategy for dealing with those who are distracted by Shin Se-hee and Kang Do-hee.
Since this was the surest and quickest way, there was no need for any other strategy.
‘I rather prefer the first archer I met.’
“Damn it!”
A male cadet was pushed out of the training ground by Kang Do-hee’s kick.
It was a familiar face.
The guy with the square jaw who was beaten to dust after arguing with me before.
‘But he was a healer…… ?’
Unbefitting of his size, his position was a healer.
He lay face down on the floor and looked up in our direction, filled with resentment.
“Cheonhwa-nim!!!”
“Yes?”
Shin Se-hee tilted her head with an innocent expression when her name was suddenly called.
“…… Don’t be swayed by a coward who surprises you from behind like that! And that guy…… !”
A guy who calls out like a servant advising the king.
It seemed like he was trying to warn Shin Se-hee that I was in danger, but…….
“Ahahahaha!”
His words were interrupted by Shin Se-hee’s sudden burst of laughter.
“A coward who does surprise attacks? Who are you talking about? Isn’t that what you mean by our party leader?”
Shin Se-hee then turned his head and looked at me with moist eyes like dripping honey.
‘…… I thought you’d calmed down a bit since yesterday’s drunkenness, but have you recovered already?’
I looked at her with her tired expression on her face.
“Then who else besides him—”
“Excuse me. Cadet Byun Ik-soo.”
“Huu—! My name…… !”
As soon as my name came out of Shin Se-hee’s mouth, the square-jawed guy widened his eyes.
“I have to know. Cadet……. You’re the one who’s been stalking me for a year already, aren’t you?”
Shin Se-hee exploded an unexpected bomb with a bright smile.
“!”
The square jaw opened its eyes wide.
“I didn’t stay quiet because I didn’t know. Cadet.”
The temperature of the voice is gradually getting colder.
“It’s just, ah—nothing. I left it alone because it had no value.”
Shin Se-hee suddenly put her arms around me and leaned her head on her shoulder.
“So. A man like you would not dare to say such a thing to me? To have been chasing after me for a year and taking pictures. It is so disgusting.”
Then Squarejaw looked at us with a face that had lost its soul.
The other team also had cold eyes on him.
“On the other hand, our party leader—. He’s handsome, strong, smart, and how can he care so much about people’s hearts……. To the extent that even if I cling to you like that, you wouldn’t even give me a glance…….”
Shin Se-hee held out her hand toward my face.
“Do it in moderation. Shin Se-hee.”
I took her hand and untied her arms. Then she smiled lightly and removed her hand from me.
“Why, isn’t it true?”
“Have you changed your strategy?”
“Yes. It’s already all covered up. Now that this has happened, I just decided to be honest. I want to get into Jin Yu-ha’s party somehow.”
She laughed and said.
It was rather difficult for Shin Se-hee to come out with a direct ball like this.
Flinching─
Kang Do-hee, who was watching her from the side, trembled.
The defeated opponents bit their lips and left with their backs to us, and Seolhee Baek approached.
“Today’s group match was hard.”
“Instructor Baek Seol-hee.”
Looks like she’s about to finish her training. I went ahead and talked to her.
“Hmm?”
I thought about Lee Yu-ri.
Shin Se-hee, from the beginning, she couldn’t even wear a side in front of Lee Yu-ri.
The two allotment agents also work hard to use their skills, but their roles are extremely insignificant.
In the end, only Kang Do-hee and I can face Lee Yu-ri in the next week’s Dalian.
5:2 By simple calculation.
Originally, I was confident.
Even if she is limited in magical power, Kang Do-hee is Kang Do-hee.
‘But, the restrictions are stricter than I thought.’
Perhaps to avoid controversy, today’s mana limit was much stricter than during training.
‘If, like the people I met today, Gukbap would be okay, it would be fine.’
That can’t be.
The look in her eyes that she showed at the end was full of determination to win over us no matter what.
She will pay enough attention to me as well as Kang Do-hee and Shin Se-hee.
If she focuses on me and her party members attack…….
I wouldn’t lose, but I didn’t think I could win.
Shouldn’t she have confidence in me as well as a party leader in front of Gukbap?
But as it stands now, it was a draw at best.
‘Tsk, it’s no wonder you’re recommending usable guys.’
I clicked my tongue inwardly.
So I asked Seolhee Baek.
“I would like to hear your advice about the Dalian next week.”
*
When Jin Yu-ha started a discussion with Baek Seol-hee.
“Tsk, it looks like you care about her too.”
Shin Se-hee clicked her tongue as if she didn’t like her.
“…… The woman?”
Kang Do-hee, who normally wouldn’t talk to Shin Se-hee first, reacted.
Then Shin Se-hee turned her head to her slightly surprised face, and she soon put on a deep smile.
“Kang Do-hee. Are you waiting too? When will Jin Yoo-ha propose a party? Do.”
“No, I apologize first… ….”
“What, did you act carelessly with Jin Yu-ha before? So what if you apologized like that? Would you really be all right without a party offer?”
Kang Do-hee then bit her mouth shut.
“I know everything. You look at people so anxiously, but who knows.”
Shin Se-hee snorted at her. She then said in a broken voice.
Shin Se-hee, who came after Hyeon-ta, was quite honest after she had already done all the rude things the day before.
“Well, unlike me, you might get a party offer. Jin Yu-ha said from the beginning that she wanted to be friends with you.”
“I see.”
Kang Do-hee felt a sense of satisfaction welling up in her heart at those words.
“By the way, there is. Ganghee Kang. You are second after all.”
“…… Second?”
“Yes, there is a woman Jin Yu-ha cherishes very much. She said she was her first party member.”
“First… ….”
Koo-wook-
Kang Do-hee unconsciously bit her lip.
Looking at her, Shin Se-hee spoke to her in a hesitant tone.
“…… Therefore. Ganghee Kang. Why don’t we join forces just this time? I also covet the seat next to Jin Yu-ha…….”
