I Became the Student Council President of the Academy City

7 – Boyhood ~Let’s start training~

Yeon family direct training ground 『Jincheongwan(進踐館)』

I don’t know Yeon Je-seong, the owner of the training ground, but the training ground was the best training ground in the empire with the essence of the Yeon family.

The seismic design using the arcane construction method handed down from generation to generation made it impervious to even a moderate shock, and the barrier combined with the power of magic and sorcery has overwhelming regenerative power that instantly recovers not only external attacks but also internal attacks. Made.

In short, it means a training ground where no matter how wild you go!

The training ground, which only focused on durability in consideration of Yeon Je-seong’s outstanding talent within the family, was a building of such high perfection that even the architects who built it showed strong pride, saying that it would be used for 1000 years.

Koo Goo Goong──!

“Good.”

And then, to test the durability of the training ground, the patriarch lightly fired his sword and let out a satisfied voice as he confirmed that the training ground was starting to be restored in an instant.

“Hut! The ground is split!”

On the other hand, Yeon Je-seong, who witnessed the blow of the family head, did not hide his excitement and asked him about the technique of the sword.

“Stop it. It’s not a trick you can deal with yet.”

“But——!”

“Let’s start soon.”

Dismissing his son’s bullshit at once, he took something from his bosom and threw it at his son.

“Wow…!”

Yeon Je-seong, who received the thrown object with his excellent reflexes, checked the object in his hand and let out a panicked voice.

From the hard touch of an unknown material to the modeling reminiscent of a face.

“This, this…!”

“Yes, an heirloom…”

“The stone mask!”

“No.”

“If you wear it, you can surpass humans!”

The world inside the game!

You did a collaboration too!

“Yes, I’m a complete creature with this…!”

“Again, it’s not like that.”

“Oh!”

The family head sighed heavily at his son’s foolishness and continued to explain slowly, taking away the mask with the help of empty water.

“This is the mask of moderation. It is a treasure worn by the direct descendants of Yan for generations.”

“Treasure?”

Looks like a normal mask, doesn’t it?

“Yes, it is a treasure. This is an item given to me by the God of War.”

It seems unpleasant.

Yeon Je-seong is greatly surprised by the words of the head of the household, frowning and exclaiming.

“God of War? Did that exist?”

God of War

He is the strongest person who exists in the setting of Failed Hero.

Due to the setting of the story, he is portrayed as a stronger being than the Demon King, and at the ending of Failed Hero 1, he is a person located at the top of the strong stone left by the main character for future warriors.

Yeolgangseok, which represents the best warriors of the time, excluding demons, made it official that the god of war is the strongest.

Unlike the lower ranks, where the number of people fluctuates as the times change, the upper ranks of the Great Powers have never changed except for the main character of Failed Hero 2.

Though the main character of 2 only managed to rank 2nd just before the demon lord subjugation.

I can’t even imagine how strong the God of War will be, considering that even the main character, who was covered with all kinds of equipment before the final battle, ended up in second place because of the name of God of War.

Even when one user asked, ‘How strong is the God of War?’, The fact that he replied, ‘The God of War alone is equal to the Demon Lord’s army.’

However, when I asked some NPCs, they frowned and shook their heads, and some even kicked them out as if they were displeased. Without exaggeration, all NPCs showed similar reactions.

With this situation, users naturally gave up on searching for the god of war and just waited for it to appear during the story.

However, unlike his high reputation in the game, he did not appear in Fallout Hero 1 or 2.

Right now, even I was looking for a military god when I was organizing a party for Time Attack, so he was a memorable figure for users.

‘I thought it wasn’t there because I searched all over the continent and couldn’t find it…….’

Even in the game’s bad ending, he didn’t show up until the end, so I thought he was just an unrealized character.

Does this mean that unrealized characters exist as much as the game has become a reality?

“You’re talking about a strange story. Isn’t the war god the guardian of our imperial empire? There must be no one who doesn’t know the blue star of the imperial empire.”

Eh.

A guardian deity?

Is it implemented that way?

“This is an item that our ancestors met and received from the god of war in the distant past. We, who show off our expressions for generations, learned to kill our emotions by using this.”

“Whoa.”

“Before there was a mask, I suffered a lot of damage due to my immaturity of expression. Not only was it a political disadvantage, but it also acted as a weakness when going uphill. I didn’t lose. The expressionless face that makes up for the lack of speech is one of the best hidden players in negotiations.”

“For some reason, people around me seem to be able to understand how I feel…!”

“No, that’s because you’re really simple.”

It has nothing to do with facial expressions.

“That’s…!”

Am I the simple type?!

“Anyway, it’s a bit early, but since you’re starting training now, make sure to wear a mask during training.”

According to the explanation, the expression of emotions is restricted when wearing this, and once you get used to it, you can maintain an expressionless expression even after taking off the mask.

“Hmm… In a word, it’s like a magic tool that seals emotions, isn’t it?”

If that’s the only effect, there’s no particular reason to use it.

In response to such muttering, he lifted the mask with a slight smile.

“If that was the end, I wouldn’t have told you to use it during training. It’s an heirloom, so that’s the end.”

Oh! There’s something more!

“If you wear this, you can use it for training because the operation of your inner energy is limited. As your inner energy grows, your growth slows down, so if you only have this, you will be able to grow even higher.”

…… !!

“Give me. I’ll write it.”

If it’s a training item, you should use it!

‘The main thing is internal training, and emotional sealing is like a demerit.’

After figuring out about the mask, I took it over without delay and put it on my face.

“Hmm. I don’t really feel anything special… Hmm?”

Is it the effect of the mask?

A calmer voice than usual pops out.

It feels like you are being forced to speak in a calm voice.

‘This is what suppressing emotions means.’

“I feel slower than usual…”

My body staggered from the sudden sense of exhaustion.

I managed to keep my body steady right before I collapsed, but if I was a little late, I would have collapsed.

“Whoa…”

As I was fiddling with the mask out of curiosity, the family head walked to the corner of the training ground.

“For the time being, wear it during training. Since the contemplation of internal energy has already reached its full maturity, try contemplating while wearing the mask.”

“Okay.”

“It is said that it seals emotions, but it only limits the expression on the outside, so be careful with your behavior so that people around you do not get caught.”

If you can control your emotions well enough that you don’t need a mask, then take off the mask.

He took out a wooden sword from the corner and threw it at his son.

“Now, let’s start in earnest. Come.”

───

“Enough. That’s it.”

Thumb—

“Heo-euk…!”

As soon as it ended, Gajoo looked at his son who collapsed on the floor and sent him a look with complicated thoughts.

‘It’s really ridiculous to start moving the aura already.’

The Mask of Temperance.

This object, which has a great influence on suppressing facial expressions, was an object with such a great demerit that even untrained warriors could not move their bodies if they wore it for the first time.

‘If you wear a mask for the first time, your inner energy will be like lead.’

If your usual aura feels like clear water, now wearing a mask it will feel like heated molten iron.

Speed, power, control.

It’s normal when everything falls apart and it’s hard to even stand…….

“Lord, I thought I was going to die!”

‘Standing wasn’t enough, so mixing me and a sword.’

Of course, it’s subtle to say that they mixed up because they fought against each other with a lot of effort, but it’s true that they crossed swords anyway.

At the same time, Kaju burst out laughing.

‘In the meantime, he was contemplating.’

Brought to his eyes by the aura, he could feel the aura pulsating inside his son.

It seems that he was contemplating while wearing a mask.

That’s why Gajoo was convinced when he saw that.

‘The next one is that guy.’

Originally, the family head of a yeon is made through competition between direct relatives.

Of course, if you are born early, you can precede the training, so in most cases the eldest son or eldest daughter takes the position of Sogaju.

A talent so high that it ignores the gap of time makes it possible to compete with one’s brothers and sisters.

Traditionally, successive family heads have chosen the stronger among them.

The person who looks stronger in the eyes of the family head, whether by force or intellect, becomes the next head of the family, and the family that was founded in that way has developed into an influential family in the empire.

If Yeon Chang-hyeok, the current head of the household, was also original, he would compare his son, Yeon Je-seong, and his daughter, Yeon Ji-eun, to judge lumber as the head of the household.

After seeing Yeon Jeseong’s aura operation, he stopped thinking about the next family head.

‘100 Years. No, he’s a genius that only comes out once in 1000 years.’

How am I going to hand over the position of head of household to another child ahead of the greatest genius of all time?

‘Your words and actions are a little light, but if you use the mask of restraint, it will gradually get better.’

The son, who was preoccupied with training, seemed to see the mask as a simple training tool, but in reality, it was a mask that made a family head.

The body wearing the mask naturally wears an authoritative voice, and of course it also acquires the dignity of the head of household.

For that reason, the nickname attached to the mask is also Yeon’s mask.

It is not wrong that only direct descendants can wear it, but to be exact, the mask of temperance is an item that is like the mark of the family head given only to the person who has been appointed as the next head of the family.

‘In the first place, if it’s a magic tool that helps with training, it’s scattered around the warehouse. With just that kind of effect, let alone an heirloom, it doesn’t even become a ghost.’

It is an heirloom because it can make a family head complete with a mask of temperance.

‘The true value of the mask of moderation lies in hiding one’s expression. In the future, if he remains expressionless even without a mask, even a guy with no political power will be able to continue trading to some extent.’

Compared to that, the suppression of aura is rather an additional effect.

Because even the head of the household used a mask to make up for the lack of speech skills, he was acutely aware of its efficacy.

‘The only downside is that he always has a stiff expression and is easily misunderstood by those around him… Well, he’ll take care of that part on his own.’

“Then, today’s training will end here.”

“Yes, good job.”

“I’m done with this, but other excellent teachers will teach you, so be sincere.”

“Yes!”

“And I ask you once again to wear a mask during training.”

“That’s fine. I’ll wear it everyday anyway.”

What?

“…Can you live wearing it?”

“Hmm… It’s a bit inconvenient to have heavy auras, but you can do it if you want to, right?”

“…….”

Are you already free to move?

How the hell did that body turn into?

Then, a thought struck Gaju.

‘Certainly infinitely slow…’ !’

A legendary body that is said to become stronger just by breathing.

It was a fraudulent constitution that was said to have fallen from the sky because of its outstanding performance.

And the head of the house, who recalled the characteristics of Cheonmu’s body, made a confused expression when he matched the characteristics of his son.

“Did it really exist!”

“Father?”

“Oh, no. It’s nothing. Then I’ll let you go, so you’ll be training until the next teacher comes.”

“Yes! Thank you for your hard work!”

I look at my son, who has just picked up a wooden sword and started wielding it, and leaves the training ground.

‘I’ll have to go to the councilor first.’

Because if your son is truly retarded, you will need to drastically change your training plan.

“Hmm?”

Then suddenly.

Gaju, who was rushing out, found a girl waiting outside.

“Meet the Lord.”

“Yes. Are you your son’s attendant?”

“Yes, it’s called wired painting.”

A rather modest attitude and clear tone.

You’re a smart kid even when you’re young.

Inwardly, he scored an extra point and looked at his legs, which were wriggling little by little, as he spoke.

“I heard the story. Take good care of my son.”

“Yes, leave it to me.”

“Hmm.”

He hurried away from her because of her obviously uncomfortable expression, and when he was out of sight of her, he felt her squatting right away and sighed at her.

“I still have a baby.”
