Chapter 198 – Chapter 198

See.
Because the guard is cool, it is pierced, so when I was sparring with Hwang Bona-young, I was mistaken for not being able to see it, of course… So I saw a clean hitting point.
I was so happy that it was the only thing I could see.

‘But, if it were Nayoung, she would have taken advantage of this gap and inserted a body blow into my side and quickly switched places.’

Glancing, twisting your back in case you enter… I was dumbfounded when I was wary of a body blow that would break even my ribs.

‘This bastard… Do you have no thoughts?’

The fact that the guard was blown away in embarrassment is that he it’s not acting, it’s real?

[I only sparred with the national team from the beginning, didn’t my eyes get too high?]

Then, just as I usually practiced, I just had to hit the jab I really wanted to put on Nayoung.
However, the timing of the practice and the actual game were inevitably different in many ways.

‘Ah… !’

You realize it the moment you jab with your left hand.
Conversely, the power of the jab weakened because he put too much force unlike in practice.
As expected, the opponent is started by the lack of speed, so he reflexively turns his head and blocks my fist with the thickest part of his headgear.

「Puong!」

Nevertheless, when the headgear and gloves collided, the sound of a bomb exploding was heard, and the other person’s head tilted sharply.

“… !”

I was even more dumbfounded when I hit him.
I wanted to overaction on the wrong jab. Still, the fact that the other person’s head was tilted back and the view went up had the advantage that it was difficult to react if I swung my fist under the shoulder next time.
It’s not like I’ve been through this to Nayoung once or twice.
However, if he lowered his head too much, he subtly restrained himself with a hook, and an uppercut like a bullet came up from the bottom.
Then, along with the pain as if the real nose bone was being crushed, the power that could blow away consciousness came out. Of course, I was able to maintain my composure and consciousness at any given moment thanks to my tenacity and Irene’s support.

‘So when you raise your head like this, you want to dig a little more concisely so that the other person’s eyeballs come down.’

“Kick!”

I dug right under him, turned his waist hard to the left, and inserted a body blow with my right hand into his side.

「Puuuuuk!」

Now, if he just swings it like a response here, then just hit him with a moderate mix of hook, uppercut, and jab like a punching bag…

“Ku-hehe, ku-hehe! Kkeuuuuu!”

Dump.

“… Uh.”

I was going to practice hitting right away, but I fell to the floor with a single body blow and lost my words while watching the guy in pain.
I didn’t hit anything with my bare fists, I swung it with thick boxing gloves for sparring, but that kind of reaction is too harsh.

“Huh, ugh…”

I quietly took off my headgear as I watched the person still struggling to breathe properly. To be honest, I was worried because it hurt so much, but I was a little annoyed and regretful.
What sparring is this
Every time I sparred, I was beaten for 9 minutes. When he swung his fist, he hit the air, or he only gently tapped the guard who was not in a good mood.
Because Hwang Bona-young doesn’t just guard, she absorbs my power at the same time.
Even when guarding, she perfectly positioned her counterattack.

‘I still can’t forget it.’

Her first jab her, an extended fist, suddenly descended from top to bottom with a single snapping shot, followed by an uppercut and a hook that came in the moment it went down.
I realize it now, but such a skill was something that even pros couldn’t do.

Because you have to accurately read the trajectory and timing of your opponent’s fists. Even more so, no matter how new I was, it was the first time I spar with you.

“Looking at the situation, I can’t do it anymore. Next, will you come up?”

I put on my headgear again.
If you act like an adult, it might be right to stop here. But today, for the first time, I also felt the taste of fists.

Break through the guard.
Eat a jab.
One body blow.

“…”

Never been satisfied
The number of jabs I got hit by Nayoung in 9 minutes exceeded 100, but I didn’t work hard to enjoy sparring that lasted less than 30 seconds.

“Ha, look at this arrogant bastard. It’s because he’s not feeling well today. I’ll have to teach you something. I thought you had toughness, but you must be strong enough?”
“Okay, so I’m going to prepare quickly and come up. I don’t even sweat.”

A person who was moved by my words put on blue headgear and blue boxing gloves and climbed up to the top of the sparring box.

As we became the second, the rest of the people who had been watching from a distance at first began to gather in the middle.
They were people I often watched when I sparred with Hwang Bona-young.
Since I was beaten every day, I must have looked like a dick. It’s normal to go further and think that sparring in a row is a lot of stamina consumption.

“If you finish quickly, let’s fight with me next time.”

You know just by looking at the atmosphere.
These people were secretly trying to suppress me in the absence of Nayoung. It’s called discipline.

“I see.”

I was blunt, so I answered.

I could see how real human beings like to line up. Furthermore, if you don’t bend to yourself or show an attitude you don’t like, it’s amazing how you feel offended by that alone.

Conversely, it was simple to make people who are angry with something like this calm down.
It clearly shows the difference in level with strength.

Then be quiet

“Vox!”

The second person who came up was openly outboxer style.
The steps are light.
The jab is quick and sharp.

‘Let’s get it right this time.’

Even if the jab was a light fist, if it hit properly, it could knock you out with one punch. But for some reason, I don’t feel that sense of danger at all.

“Puck, puck, puck!”

Put on less weight.
The thought of wanting to avoid at any time is embedded in the steps, so there is no ambition.
This was really a ‘light fist’.
Even though I’m giving my face correctly, seeing that my head doesn’t bend backwards even a millimeter, it’s to the point where I’m mistaken that I’m being hit with a mallet.

「Fuck!」

Whether he knew it or not, I greeted him openly, so he hit the arm of the guy who was swinging his jab with excitement.
I copied what Nayoung was trying to do, but in my case, I just hit it with force, so if it was an official game, it would have been an unconditional foul.
By the way, this is not an official match.

“… !”

The startled opponent made fun of his smart feet and ran around the narrow ring to run away, but I was right about what I thought.

“Are you jumping?”

The ring fit into a very narrow space.
If you step lightly and move forward, the distance that the other person’s face and your face can touch is narrowed in an instant.

“… !”

As if waiting for this, he quickly raised his right hand over his shoulder and fired a counter straight with all his might.
I got it right too.
Instead, with the determination to counter, I also threw a right hook and smacked the other person in the face.

“Puck!”
「Puuuuuong!」

I thought my headgear made a cute sound, but the other person’s headgear came off and flew away with the sound of wind blowing.
And, without fail, a fluff and knockdown in one shot…

“Write, ha…”

I just let out a deep sigh.
I think I know why Nayoung told me that someone like me who can keep hitting me in the real ring is so precious.
The stronger you get, the harder it is to meet someone like me.

‘Irene.’

[Yes, why?]

I gestured to the next person to come up quickly and told me what I had realized.

‘As expected, people learn quickly only when they are beaten by someone who has reached the top.’

Even when playing games, it wasn’t for nothing that they said that if you really want to become strong, you should keep getting hit by dead people to the point of tears.
As much as she held me all day to prepare for the Olympics, I wasn’t standing still, I was definitely moving forward.
I just didn’t know because I hadn’t experienced it.

“Next, come up, suck.”

I had to bite the mouthpiece again and spar with five more people after that. Nonetheless, no one was able to complete the first three-minute round.
So I got angry and hit them all, and suddenly the atmosphere on both sides became stern.

“Fuck, I can’t eat it because it’s dirty. Quit this gym!”
“…”

At that moment, my mind flashed.
Come to think of it, this wasn’t my gym. If I had been a little more mature and dignified person, I might have built up a bond with the other person while taking care of it a little bit.
I was just kicking and kicking and beating for real, and on the contrary, the other person was bursting with resentment.

Of course, this wasn’t my responsibility.
But messing around in other people’s gyms and ruining their livelihoods was never right. Even though the director came in earlier and was watching everything, he quietly kept his mouth shut out of consideration for me.

‘Ah, fuck Kim Hyun-woo, Kim Hyun-woo! When will you become an adult?’

I had to rectify this situation somehow.
Before everyone just piles up and quits the gym starting today. In fact, when one person said he was quitting while swearing, the others were riding the flow as if they had been waiting.
I can tell just by sneakily taking out my personal gloves and shoes.
When I saw it, I quickly shouted.

“Ugh! A moment, a moment! Guys, stop there for a second.”
“What the fuck. Wanna lose more? Yes, you are fucking fuck. What would a dickhead like us do by learning more about boxing?”
“Let’s calm down. Like a man, do you loosen it with your fists?”
“You want to hit me more?”
“No, I will unilaterally treat the stomach this time. Instead, if I give each one a minute and still can’t defeat them, I’ll admit my weakness like a man and go to the gym harder. I’ve done this to this extent, but if I can’t admit it, shouldn’t that be why I should remove the pepper?”

Even if the seven people who were all knocked down by me show disapproval at my words, they don’t want to be humiliated even more here.
He shook his head carefully.

“It’s okay, fuck.”

When I saw that, I was just amazed. After being catnip once, watch him immediately become cautious with his passive attitude of his. Seeing how they pretend to be strong on the outside, but become cowards because they are at a disadvantage, it turns out that humans are cunning animals.

Madam, I had no intention of doing this.

“Instead, if you guys win, next time you’ll have a drink with me on University Street. I’ll somehow make you sit with pretty college girls. Oh, by the way, I will openly reveal that I am a married man.”

A spark flickers in men’s eyes at my words, then suddenly subsides again when I openly show off that I’m married.
I know what you’re worried about.

“Do not worry. Even if I openly show that I am married, and furthermore openly show that I have no intention of dating, I have the confidence to make women stick to me.”

At my words, all the muscular men trained in boxing ask me cautiously.

“Really? Is that possible?”

Looking at these people, I lightly took off my headgear, let my sweaty hair fly, leaned against the wall lightly, put both hands down, and raised one foot while taking a pose.

“Do you think it won’t work with this face?”
“Yeah, I think it will be…”
“Call? Then, one by one, from now on, when-“

Before I could finish my words, the men came rushing in and carefully rubbed my shoulders.

“I will serve you as my brother, brother.”
“Yes? Anyone can see that the men are older than me…”
“Oh, where is that? In today’s world, a good person is always an older brother. Why are you hitting the stomach, making my precious brother feel bad?”
“…”

Looking at this, it was true that a man cannot escape the existence of a woman unless he is gay.

“Hey, Dad… It was so cool today.”

Gently lifting Noah, who was clinging to my leg, I quietly left the gym.

“Let’s go home and wash up today. Understand? Because Nayoung is not there.”
“Yes, Dad.”

As I walked out, everyone smiled and greeted me as if I had waited.

“Go in, brother! Please be sure to ask next time. We have a lot of time, so whenever we can afford it!”
“Yes, yes, I, Nayoung, are going to go to Tokyo to watch the game, so let’s set up a schedule after that.”
“Thank you! Hwang Bona-young, fighting! We will watch all the games at the bar and cheer for you!”
“Aww, thank you! Let’s show how loud our Korean voice is. I would like to ask you to come to the Tokyo Stadium.”
“Republic of Korea pietyeeeee Whoa!”

The director just shook his head as he watched everyone screaming together as he tightened his abdominal muscles.

“If boxing had been done with that sincerity, everyone would have been on the national team.”
