Chapter 129 – You Are a Genius!

#

Why did this happen?
Eana Kim’s mother was very happy that her daughter’s boyfriend (who might become) had come and seemed to be ready to treat her to a meal, but now not only was it time to eat, but Kim and I had already eaten.
It was because I couldn’t stand hunger for a long time because I practiced in the morning.

After the story of her meal broke down, Eana Kim formally introduced me to her father.
In the first place, that was the purpose.
Why I came here

Eana Kim explained somewhat exaggeratedly.
Like I’m a genius
All the people my father called talents until now will not even reach my toes,

Seeing Kim Kil-sung’s threatening expression, he wanted to stop the words pouring out of Kim Ea-na’s mouth right away, but it was already too late.

Kim Gil-seong said to me with a solemn expression.

“Follow me.”

Without further explanation, he quickly walked back to the place he had come from.

“Oh, I guess my husband is going to test this or her future husband for himself?”
“When did you become a husband again? Not even a boyfriend!”
“Inaya, mom has the ability to see the future. No, she is actually a regressor.”
“Stop talking nonsense! You just changed the settings as I said. I mean it’s a lie.”
“Hu-hu-hu, don’t you think it would be both? Being able to see the future and being a regressor at the same time. Isn’t it a setting where the two are tied together in the first place?”
“Uh? Really?”

It was some kind of stupid conversation.
But it was also cute.
It was clear that Eana Kim inherited her quirky, friendly charm from her mother.

‘But the regressor is here…’

The main character of the setting that appeared in the conversation was right here.
Of course, there was no need to tell them about it.

“I’m coming.”

In general, it was a situation that should have been greatly intimidated.
I came to my classmate girl’s house, and her father took me to the training room.

But I was more excited than that.
Because you get to see firsthand the abilities of a person whose name is engraved as a legend.

He almost reached level 4 in his ‘Sword Saint’ special ability.
That’s why you must have heard that it’s an A-class, close to an S-class.
It was probably S-class later with a high probability.
It is extremely rare for an A-class Hunter to rise to S-class.
But it was nothing.
In particular, in that case, A-class hunters who became S-class hunters often had special abilities.

‘The Swordsman’.

In particular, the 4th level ‘Sword Saint’ was a difficult ability for A-class hunters to have.
It must be one of the two.
Either the ability disappears, or the rank of the hunter with it rises.
Of course, the former rarely happens, so the latter is likely.

‘Just raising it to level 4 is amazing.’

Even if he had the special ability of ‘Sword Saint’, it was great that he had already raised it to level 4.
That’s how talented he was and he never stopped training.
And there would be a lot of field experience.

Being forty years old, this is a possible story.
I knew his story only from my memory.
It was also possible that he had run or belonged to another guild before establishing the ‘Path of the Sword’.
And there was a high possibility that he had continued to accept general requests, which was one of the characteristics of ‘The Path of the Sword’.

Anyway, these were all things that helped Kim Gil-sung’s personal growth.
Otherwise, Kim Gil-seong, who has the current 4th level ‘Sword Saint’ ability, cannot exist.

“Don’t worry too much. Even if you look like that, Dad is a caring person.”
“Okay, I’ll boil the chicken for our future son-in-law when I get back.”

It’s boiled chicken.
It was nice to feel the mother’s love.
Of course, I wasn’t Kim Eana’s boyfriend at this point, much less her future husband.

Kim Ea-na told her not to worry, but Kim Gil-seong, whom she met in her training room, was afraid to live.
I remembered Kim Eana’s shock when her mother mentioned her boyfriend.
The giant was about to stagger.

He never had a daughter, but that’s what his father’s heart is like.
To be honest, 20 is a very young age.
But at an age where anything can start.
From the father’s point of view, it would be heartbreaking.
That’s what actually happened.

In front of her daughter’s boyfriend (who might become it), a male student 20 years younger than herself, Kim Gil-seong was spouting death.

‘I don’t mean to actually kill him.’

To him, this training room would be a sacred space.
It was like that, and there was a lot of energy in it.
I’ve been to this place a few times in the past.
Hunter who made great achievements, S rank.
In the space where they showed their passion, an indescribable energy is created.

There was such an atmosphere in Kim Hae-na’s house, but she was still young.
Therefore, it was unreasonable to have the same aura as the training room I am standing in now.

“Are you a genius?”
“Sorry. I never said it with my own mouth.”
“So you’re saying my daughter lied?”
“That… No.”

It felt like something was driven into my limbs.
The tremendous energy of Kim Gil-sung and the pressure that this training room exudes made that feeling stronger.

But even though I had the appearance of being 20 years old, I was actually a hunter with more than 15 years of experience.
I’ve been through a lot of crises in the dungeon.
There were many experiences where he almost lost his life during the struggle against the underground guild.

More than anything…
Twenty NTR’s made my mental strength incredibly strong.

I went through that too, but it was impossible for me to be overwhelmed by the energy radiating from someone who had no intention of actually killing me.

“Let me show you what I do best. Then I judge Are you a real genius or not? I will judge for myself whether you are one step above the talented people I have seen and acknowledged with my own eyes.”

‘Shit…’

Kim Gil-sung was infinitely sincere.
In fact, there was no reason for me to be tested by him.
I’m not Kim Eana’s boyfriend, and I’m not taking a test to get into his guild.

But somehow, it became that kind of atmosphere.

In any case, it is unavoidable.
To be honest, the current situation and atmosphere made me feel good.
Because I have been a training geek who has been performing routines for over 20 years.
It has only been about a month since I returned and the situation has changed.

I had respect for the existence of Kim Kil-sung and the space he had trained in.
It was an honor to be able to showcase my abilities in front of such a person and in this space.

“All right. Thank you for the opportunity.”

I bowed down to show my respect.
Then, Kim Gil-sung’s expression changed slightly.
The crumpled forehead straightened, and the look in his eyes became as if he was saying, ‘Look at this guy?’

I took the sword out of my inventory.
Choe Ju-ri, that is, an ordinary college student airlifted from GP, was something that could not be easily owned.

Regarding this, Kim Kil-seong did not show much surprise.
In any case, his economic power was considerable.
The family itself would be good enough to inherit such a large-scale traditional hanok, and Kim Gil-seong himself would have accumulated wealth.

It means that a sword like this isn’t enough to surprise him.

Of course, I had no intention of surprising him with a sword.
What really mattered was what could be done with this sword.

I stretched out my sword and blew my breath,
Seeing the haze rising on my shoulder and the sword blade sharpened at the end of it, Kim Gil-seong untied his arms.

I turned my body sideways.
It doesn’t mean much if it’s just showing ordinary ‘sword skills’.
Because there are many hunters with ‘sword skill’.
In particular, there were many cases where hunters who did not use only the ‘sword’ as their main weapon had them.
I was one of them too.

So I decided to show what only I can do.

‘The Swordsman’.

That special ability settled well within me over the course of a few days.
And the same goes for the ‘fire attribute’ and related skills.

Combining two special abilities and skills is not an easy task.
However, for a hunter with a lot of experience, it was of course possible, and it was also something that should be possible.

Roaring!

Stuck to my sword

Seeing this, Kim Gil-sung’s mouth opened slightly.

I put ‘fire attribute’ and ‘sword skill’ into one sword.
Needless to say, what made this possible was the special ability of the ‘Sword Saint’.
It was the ‘Sword Saint’ that gave buffs to all abilities and actions with the sword.

I swung my sword.

Roaring!-

It wasn’t just a slash, it was a ‘flame launch’ skill.

Tremendous heat exploded, and a fireball exploded along the tip of the sword he swung.
It flew up to the wall and crashed into it, making a roar.

Phuong!-

“Ah…”

I felt I had made a big mistake.
Because the wall where the fireball I shot exploded was scorched black.

It was probably because she was used to the training room at Gaon Academy.
The facilities in this house probably aren’t that high-tech.

“Sorry.”

When I apologized, Gilseong Kim smiled on the contrary.

“After all, my daughter never lies. You are a genius!”
