Chapter 28
The heroine saves the world episode 28
“I’m so nervous. What should I do? Oh no, I can’t even eat breakfast!”
“Me too. Now I don’t have to go to the mountains and exercise on rocks, right?”
It was finally the day when the training ground was completed.
Because it was the weekend, the sound of Lee Yu-eul and Jang Su-ho, who didn’t go to school, making a fuss since morning sounded like the sound of cicadas crying in the middle of summer.
“I’ll go down and do a final check, so call me and I’ll come down.”
If I stay like this any longer, my ears will start to bleed.
I checked my physical condition while going down from the 4th floor to the basement.
[ Current Stamina 50 / 100 ]
“As expected, not everything can be recovered in one day.”
My whole body is still numb from the aftereffects of cleansing Hanjiseong yesterday.
After returning to the room, I had to turn on the hot water and stand under it for a long time.
Otherwise, I felt like my whole body would freeze.
It was clear that the strange changes in my body after using Han Ji-seong’s ice ability and purification skill were somehow related.
It’s as if I’m absorbing some of the other person’s rampage.
“System, let me ask you one thing. Does purifying darkness always leave aftereffects like that?”
[ Information that has not yet been granted access . ]
This is the first time I’ve heard an answer like this.
It’s not that surprising since it’s the system of
‘Not yet’.
“Then when will it be released?”
[ Skill proficiency needs to be improved . ]
“So it’s not just the dark purification skill, but also the body healing skill?”
[ Yes . ]
Then there is only one way.
In the future, you will be able to use your skills without any problems to increase your proficiency and efficiency.
Not only my guild members, but I also need training.
“And I’ll probably need some stamina boosting items too.”
While I was making various plans, I arrived at the entrance to the training ground before I knew it.
Guari was already there waiting for me.
It seemed like he was the type to keep his promises like a knife.
“hello.”
“Oh, hello.”
Although he was originally a timid person, his condition was worse today.
He looked very anxious, unable to make eye contact with me and constantly fidgeting with his fingers.
‘That makes sense.’
I was reminded of a post that came up in the Hunter Community early this morning.
Seong Yona, the younger sister of Seong Rosa, the guild leader of the Fantasia Guild.
That is the true identity of the Guari standing in front of me now.
A class A magician whose specialty is the ability to manipulate space, especially space distortion that allows him to quickly move multiple people along with himself.
As someone who lives in hiding, I could understand the fear, anxiety, and social phobia, but I frowned at the part about ‘guilt’.
‘It’s not his fault.’
Seong Yo-na is the victim of an unexpected rampage.
One of the hunters who entered the dungeon together suddenly went berserk and killed his comrades.
Seong Yo-na survived, but was in a state of panic and was unable to properly control her spatial distortion skills, barely managing to escape on her own.
Moreover, because of this, he developed a fear of dungeons and the hunter life itself, so he chose to go missing and changed his appearance and name, and lived a quiet life while accepting requests for space remodeling to make a living.
But unfortunately, I was spotted by a hunter with the skill of observation.
How much of a rush you must be feeling right now.
But even in such a situation, seeing that he came all the way here to keep his promise to the Justice Guild shows that he has a strong sense of responsibility.
“Well, the construction is complete. If you check the inside and there are no problems, please send me the balance… … .”
“no.”
I said as I transferred the remaining money that I had promised through the app.
“Your complexion doesn’t look good. You should go to the hospital right away.”
Of course, going to the hospital wouldn’t solve anything, but I pretended not to know.
“If there’s any problem, I’ll contact you, so please come and check it out then.”
“Oh, yes. Yes. I, I will do that. Thank you for giving me the job!”
He spoke to Guari, or rather, Seongyo-na, who bowed deeply in greeting and then quickly walked away.
“hey.”
“yes?”
“If you ever need help with anything, come and see me.”
“… … .”
Seong Yo-na blinked a few times and stared blankly, then nodded again and left the Jeongui Guild building.
Seong-Yona’s life on the run won’t last long.
The place you are staying now will be discovered in no time, and there are limits to staying in a hotel or motel.
Soon, the Saint will be offering a huge bounty to find his sister and runaway hunter.
In that situation, Seongyo-na can’t help but recall what I said a little while ago.
That’s enough.
When that time comes, the cornered Seongyo-na will come to the Guild of Justice on her own two feet.
* * *
“Drumroll!”
“Follow me, follow me-”
When I called to say that the training grounds were complete, all the guild members who came down in an instant couldn’t hide their excitement.
Of course, the Eulsoo duo, who have their own background music, are also included.
“The Guild of Justice has a proper training ground.”
“I’m shaking to death.”
Han Ji-seong and Lee Yu-chan are on the quiet side.
“… … Phew.”
Even Kang Han-do, who usually practices the Tao through silent meditation, was sighing as if he was trembling at this moment.
And the moment the door opens.
“What is this?”
“Why, why is it so wide?”
“Uh… … . We did some construction to expand the existing building by adding a sub-space.”
Even after I gave a brief explanation, we were silent for a while.
Lee Yu-eul and Jang Su-ho, who had been so excited, could not bring themselves to step into the new training grounds and just stood there blankly.
“It seems to be almost ten times larger than the original underground space.”
Han Ji-seong, who was barely holding on to his sanity, said.
The only real space is a sort of break room that is visible as soon as you open the door, and the several rooms connected by glass doors along the hallway are all extensions of subspaces.
I wonder why they charged so much for furniture and training facilities.
However, that amount of money is ridiculously small considering the cost of creating a subspace that can be used at all times by the Awakened using their skills.
“… … Miss Na Yeo-ju, how much did you spend?”
Kang-han asked me.
“Oh, I did spend some money. But.”
I think I underpaid the construction cost.
