Personality Broken Hero

22 – Episode 22

Participation in the combat training curriculum for American pilots who had applied for was approved.

It is a one-month training schedule, and the government fully supports the cost of travel and maintenance of dignity.

The benefits and treatment of high-ranking talent in Korea are good. If treatment is not good, heroes will be recruited from other countries.

In fact, in the case of poor countries, security is broken due to the continued leakage of hero resources, and the number of heroes who want to leave the country increases, repeating a vicious cycle.

Of course, Korea’s treatment is not the best in the world, so talents are often taken away by other countries.

A hero who grew up receiving government support for over ten years immigrated to France a few years ago, and was subject to confiscation of domestic assets and a lifetime ban on entry, and is still being criticized on the Internet.

The US is famous for its aggressive recruiting. It has a good relationship with Korea, but no country is exception to the US recruiting strategy.

I contacted him several times during my rehabilitation training in the US.

The last presidential medal was also part of the recruiting activity. During the rehabilitation period, the foreign ministry staff who translated for me was quite restless, but I could only speak Korean, so I never thought about living in another country.

A few days ago, I quietly arrived in the US and stayed at a hotel near the training ground, where I saw world-famous heroes from time to time.

Any country that is friendly with the United States can participate in combat training for pilots in the US, but most countries do not share the combat training method for pilots.

It is not like that if the US spreads it like a hukou. The cost of participating in training is high enough to be a burden on heroes, and it is also an opportunity to openly recruit heroes who have come to receive training.

After I submitted my application for training, I was also asked by the relevant government officials whether I had any intention of converting.

The first hour of the curriculum was theoretical education.

It was a typical American-style university lecture hall, and I saw several other heroes who came with interpreters.

Approximately 30 heroes seem to be participating in this training. In Korea, I am the only person currently active in active duty who has the ability to simultaneously strengthen the body and the ability to fly, but for a population of 80 million, there are few people who possess both the ability to strengthen the body and the ability to fly.

Most of the heroes are people who have built a wall from studying, so I don’t know how effective it will be, but the lecturer enthusiastically explained that there is a big difference between knowing the theory and not knowing it.

The interpreters gave ample time to interpret each time they explained, and they explained it through simple terms and video materials that matched the heroes’ eye level, so I was able to understand to some extent.

Of course, there were heroes who were awakened by an interpreter while sleeping, and even among heroes who did not need an interpreter, there were also those who tried to overcome their drowsiness.

Honestly, I was a bit sleepy, and it was awkward since it was over 10 years since I last studied, but I desperately focused as I recalled the hundreds of millions of dollars in education costs.

I was listening to the lecture while remembering the battle with invincible taekwon that I fought before, and realized that most of the invincible taekwon was used in accordance with the theory and application method.

When the hero was active, there was less theory establishment like now, and even though some countries had already completed textbooks, they only shared them internally, and it gave me goosebumps that they had mastered them almost perfectly only through actual combat.

It is regrettable what it would have been like if invincible Taekwondo had not lived alone and had been in charge of educating his juniors after his retirement.

After the first theory class, a 30-minute break was given, and the interpreter, who took notes instead of me, followed me with a tablet.

Lecture content cannot be recorded as a video record, and writing can only be done on a tablet provided by the training facility, and must be returned after the training is over.

Personal electronic devices were not allowed to be used in the training facility. When entering and exiting the training facility, it was checked with a metal detector, but I think a clairvoyant would have checked everything.

This is because even in Korea, clairvoyance talents are deployed in important facilities. In the case of female heroes, it can be unpleasant, but in this case, it can’t be helped.

The next time is practice training, but the break time was long, so I decided to go to the park bench inside the training facility and take a break.

I was chatting with the interpreter when a Westerner who looked about the same height as me approached me.

Among foreign heroes, he was uniquely tall, and he was a hero that stood out during theory education.

“Hey, Nikolai. Hello.”

It was a Caucasian man who appeared to be in his mid-twenties, but to my surprise, he said hello in Korean.

“Uh…Hi?”

I was a little embarrassed and said hello in English instead of Korean.

“Nice to meet you, I’m a hero from England. My name is MacIjauskas Germantas.”

“Makaijau… What?”

The name was so unfamiliar that I couldn’t memorize it at once.

“hahahaha, just call me ‘McCoy’ or ‘Mack’. Even my friends have a hard time calling them.”

My Korean accent was a bit clumsy, but I spoke Korean very well enough to have a conversation.

“Yes, hello McCoy.”

“I have a lot of interest in Korea. I studied Korean hard. Nikolai I don’t do well in dramas and variety shows, but I know because of the attacks on the last flight.”

McCoy, with a pretty excited face, was about the same height as me, and a bit slim.

If it weren’t for his tall stature and well-trained body, he would have looked like a college student who was good at studying.

“Nikolai, I plan to be a hero in Korea. It was nice to meet you here, friend?”

A friend? It seemed like he was saying that we should be friends, so I brought my fist up too.

I felt like the interpreter, who seemed excited about being a hero in Korea, wanted to ask, so I asked instead.

“You say you’re a hero in Korea? What do you do in the country where you were originally active?”

“I’m from Lithuania. There are only a few months left in my English contract. After this training, I will apply to Korea.”

“May i interrupt here for a second? I’m working for Ministry of Foreign Affairs Korea. Here’s my business card. If you want to know something or need help, feel free to contact with me.”

(Can I interrupt you for a moment? I work for the Korean Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Here is my business card. If you want to know something or need help, feel free to contact me)

As if he couldn’t miss the opportunity to recruit top-notch personnel with physical strength and flight skills, a foreign ministry employee who had followed him as an interpreter and manager handed him his business card.

He must have come to Korea on his own anyway, but taking the lead in recruiting a high-ranking person would be a good contribution.

After receiving the business card, McCoy briefly exchanged a few words with the foreign affairs official before looking at her tablet and talking to me.

“Hey, bloke. Training time is here. Let’s go together.”

McCoy has a nice face and seems to be a very friendly guy.

I was a bit worried because I didn’t know anyone and could only communicate through an interpreter, but it’s fortunate that I had a friend to talk with during the combat training course for pilots with flying abilities.

The second training was conducted in such a way that an American retired hero demonstrated movements and techniques and corrected postures and methods.

To be honest, I was a little expecting Roberts Corey, America’s most famous hero with physical enhancement and flying abilities, to come as an instructor, but he didn’t seem to come as an instructor because he’s still a hero on active duty.

I was able to follow the techniques easily without much difficulty. It’s probably because it took a long time to acquire the ability to fly, and it’s because I’ve been dealing with skills similar to those in the textbook in real combat.

On the other hand, my English friend, McCoy, was having a bit of trouble copying.

There were many heroes who took off their tops, probably starting to sweat from the difficult movements.

Many of the topless heroes had tattoos on their bodies. It was a bit strange to see a sight rarely seen in Korea.

Because tattoos are viewed very negatively in Korea, there are very few heroes with tattoos, so I have never seen a hero with tattoos.

McCoy also had tattoos on his back, with runes and symbols drawn in intricate patterns resembling magic zines.

He showed the struggling McCoy the techniques from the side and explained them.

“You have to think of it as the basic state of floating in the air, and feel that you are flying in the opposite direction in advance so that you can fall at the same time as you hit.”

“sh*t, it’s harder than I thought.”

It seems to have solved the question of why the UK did not lock a hero with physical and flying abilities into a long-term contract.

Anyway, it seemed that it was difficult to subconsciously maintain the state of being suspended in the air, perhaps because I had recently awakened to the ability to fly, just as I had a hard time in the early days of acquiring the ability.

In the beginning, it was difficult for me to attack while maintaining flight, so I could only use my flying ability for simple linear acceleration.

“I wasn’t used to it at first either, but if you keep flying frequently, you’ll soon get used to it.”

A lot more heroes than I thought had difficulty applying their flight abilities, so the drill instructor was busy giving advice.

The instructor saw me repeating the technique and explaining it to McCoy, so he let me explain and was helping the other heroes.

Aside from me, it caught my eye that some heroes who seemed already familiar with aviation technology were helping the heroes around them.

At the end of the two-hour training session, a large number of heroes began to show off their skills little by little, as if it was a lie that many people were lost at the beginning of the training session.

Certainly like the top heroes of each country, they quickly got used to using their abilities. Most of the heroes who are trained enough to go through training here are elites who have developed their abilities through painstaking efforts.

I learned a little bit from today’s technical training, but I still had some results.

I’m still only learning basic applications and techniques, but I’m already looking forward to learning more advanced techniques.

After the practical training, time was given for personal practice.

Except for a few heroes, most of them were desperately practicing at the training ground until late at night. As expected, the sense of mission and enthusiasm was great, probably because they were heroes.

McCoy practiced so hard, so I trained until the sun went down, helping me from the side and trying out techniques on each other.

I became friendly with the other heroes I trained with by talking to them little by little and trying out their skills.

McCoy’s tattoo in action

Isn’t it a national joke that an Englishman from Lithuania over 2m is a Korean fanatic? Where is the probability? In case you do, I’ve attached a picture of a real person.

It’s a bit twisted, but I actually know Korean dramas and variety shows better than I do and watch a lot.

You can think of bloke as something the British use, dude.
