Episode 41.
Siwoo returns home after enjoying Omakase with Seoah.
Let’s throw away my impressions of Omakase… no, roughly speaking.
It was tasty.
But 600,000 won is a lot of money.
But I really like Seo-ah so I would like to go again.
I was able to organize it to this extent.
anyway.
What was important to Siwoo was not his impression of the omakase.
A video from none other than Confucius Channel.
“This is seriously fucking boring.”
What happened was not at all unexpected.
Is this a YouTube video?
Or maybe it’s a lecture video.
I was completely unaware of it.
And, as expected,
└
└
└
The running comments were the same.
And what.
As expected, they were the people called the Hundred Schools of Thought.
In a word, Confucius’s disciples.
More precisely, members of the Confucian school.
Anyway, you could say that this was a damn school affair.
But if you look at the comments below a little more closely, it’s not just about school ties.
└
The founder of Buddhism and one of the three greatest saints in the world.
A being known as Buddha.
It seemed that the Buddha was also a subscriber to the Confucius channel.
That wasn’t all.
Great figures in the lineage of Western philosophy, starting with Socrates.
Thoth, the god of wisdom in Egyptian mythology.
Also, Apollo and Minerva, who are called the gods of wisdom.
In short, I am full of knowledge!
All those gods were gathered here.
Of course, there were some characters that didn’t fit in.
└
“Why is this guy here again?”
He was truly the most mismatched character.
I was wondering if you were recommending the Confucius Channel.
I myself was a subscriber to Confucius’ channel.
Well, anyway.
The video was seriously fucking boring.
It was so difficult, so difficult.
If I didn’t have Insight (S+), I wouldn’t even be able to understand it.
but.
I was able to increase my proficiency.
And this means:
“Now you can learn the art of Shinto.”
A trembling heart.
Siwoo went straight to the Hercules channel.
* * *
[Hmm…]
Beyond the smartphone screen.
Hercules let out a short sigh.
He seemed lost in thought, caressing his chin with one hand and saying nothing.
The problem was that my fingers weren’t touching my chin.
Biceps bulging like balloons.
Crunch, crunch!
Because of those muscles, my arms wouldn’t bend.
So Hercules pretended to caress his chin.
I was caressing the empty space.
What on earth are they doing?
I had that thought naturally, but I didn’t point it out.
“What’s the problem?”
[No. Rather than saying there is a problem. No, rather than a problem… .]
Hercules waved his hand slightly.
Hercules still uses formal language when he is surprised.
This trend has become more prevalent these days, perhaps because subscribers have gotten a taste of the fun.
They were also secretly requesting the next video content.
And Siwoo had something in mind too.
‘Not now.’
But not now.
That’s a card that can be a strength for Siwoo against Hercules.
There was no need to reveal everything at once.
anyway.
[I was wondering how to teach the art of Shinto.]
It seemed that the long struggle did not mean that the Shinto technique could not be taught.
[If what you say is true, then it means that although I have acquired Confucius’ brain muscles, I have not acquired them completely?]
“Yes. You need to increase your proficiency.”
[That skill level is currently 0.01%?]
“Not right now. But if you work hard, you can keep improving.”
[That’s right…]
Hercules nodded slightly.
[As I said, the Shinto technique is not something you can use at your level.]
[An anchovy like you… no.]
Hercules glanced at Siu.
And then, he gave a clear cough and continued speaking.
[A beginner like you can completely destroy your body and mind if you use it incorrectly.]
[First of all, Shintoism does not simply mean martial arts.]
[What should I say?]
[Should we call this a method of overturning the laws of the world?]
[This is exactly what it means to develop brain muscles.]
“uh….”
[That means it’s not just about using a body trained with brute strength.]
[The center of the mana vessel located in the body. It draws mana to the center of the energy and blood vessels.]
[Mana is the source of existence.]
[It can be said that it is a conceptual entity that allows all matter to exist.]
[However, the power of such a being cannot be used carelessly.]
[To use the power of the source more actively, one special device is needed.]
[An organ that projects will.]
[You can think of it as an amplification organ that makes it easier for your will to influence mana.]
[The oriental gods over there call this the dantian, anyway.]
Hercules continued talking like this.
and.
“uh….”
Siwoo didn’t understand a single thing that was being said.
Seriously, I didn’t understand a single word of it.
Even Hwa-tu’s divine medicine (S+) wasn’t to this extent.
Even with the help of Insight (S+), I still couldn’t fully understand those concepts.
therefore….
[Are you bored as a dog?]
It was boring as a dog.
[I’m so bored, I wonder what this kid is talking about?]
[How do you know something like that?]
[Were you thinking this?]
It hit the nail on the head.
It was so accurate that it made you wonder if Hercules had learned mind reading.
Then Hercules lifted his right foot high.
Slamming it straight down on the ground.
Kkaaa …
The scenery beyond the screen collapsed in an instant.
Thick dusty fog.
After some time had passed, the screen appeared to have disappeared into space.
It was never a joke or an exaggeration.
“Oh, no, what…?”
The space was literally destroyed!
Above that annihilated space.
Hercules pointed at Siu with his finger.
[You just want to learn this kind of martial arts!]
And then the shout of Hercules was heard.
[I don’t want to learn complex concepts, I just want to gain these powers!]
[Am I wrong?!]
[Your muscles are too dishonest to say no?]
“Uh… That, that’s right?”
Siwoo nodded absentmindedly.
Because it wasn’t a wrong statement.
But did it really have to be said like this?
I had my doubts, but as expected, I didn’t have the courage to ask.
How can you object to that screen?
[So I thought about it!]
[How can I make it easier for you!]
[I wonder if it’s possible to learn the art of Shinto more simply!]
So here’s the conclusion.
[It’s muscle!]
“…… yes?”
Siwoo’s expression became blank without him realizing it.
Of course, it’s muscle, right?
How did they reach that conclusion?
[As the saying goes, if your body is not well, your head suffers!]
“…….”
Siwoo was at a loss for words.
Wasn’t it the opposite…?
[Complicated concepts will naturally be learned as you build muscle!]
[Give all that headache-inducing knowledge to a dog!]
[No, just give it to Muscle!!]
[Pump it up or something!]
Crunch! Crunch!
Hercules’ muscles writhed as if they were about to explode.
And certainly nothing seemed to mean anything in front of those muscles.
To begin with, that muscle itself was at a level that distorted the laws of the world.
I don’t know if you know Siwoo’s feelings or not.
[Welcome to the world of crazy muscles!]
Hahahahahahahahaha!
All that could do was let out Hercules’ mad laughter.
* * *
SH Group’s headquarters building.
The office of Chairman Han Tae-san, located on the top floor.
“Please come inside. The chairman is waiting.”
Chaerin nodded slightly and turned the large doorknob of the office.
The double doors opened with a click, revealing the scenery inside.
A space that looks like it’s easily over 200 pyeong.
Is this an office or just a house?
The interior design of the office could not be described with the word ‘antique’.
Beyond the glass.
The scenery of Seoul was visible at a glance.
Seoul, the capital of South Korea.
Taking in the scenery at a glance, I felt like I was standing at the top of Korea.
“Are you here?”
An old voice came from one side.
I slowly turned my head and looked at that place.
There was an old man sitting there.
White hair that turned white and wrinkled skin.
It gave me an idea of his age.
But why is that?
The eyes that looked at me were not like that at all.
The sparkling eyes were shining golden like the sun.
The eyes that held some kind of unspoken power looked strangely young.
Chaerin met those eyes and slowly lowered her head.
“It’s been a while, Grandpa.”
SH Group Chairman, Han Tae-san.
“Okay. How have you been?”
Han Tae-san said with a warm smile.
A person who controls the business and political world of South Korea.
Furthermore, it is a giant among giants that has a huge impact on the world economy.
But now he was just a grandfather treating his granddaughter.
“You didn’t do something like that last time, did you?”
“No. I realized my shortcomings and devoted myself to training.”
“That’s good. But since you have something important coming up, don’t push yourself too hard.”
Han Tae-san nodded his head once.
Then he got up from his seat and walked to the sofa in front.
“It’s been a while since we last met, but I feel like I’ve been nagging you too much. Come over here and sit down instead of just standing there.”
Chaerin also walked towards where Han Taesan was.
The place we met like that.
“I heard you bought some equipment this time.”
“yes.”
Chaerin nodded slightly and answered.
“How was it?”
“I was really satisfied.”
And to Han Tae-san’s question that followed, Chae-rin answered without hesitation.
Taesan Han showed a slightly surprised expression at Chaerin’s appearance.
“I heard it was 4 billion.”
Because it was a reaction that could not be seen in equipment worth only 4 billion.
Of course, 4 billion was by no means a cheap sum.
But to Han Tae-san, it couldn’t be seen as money.
Likewise, Chaerin also had the same meaning.
First of all, the sword that Chaerin uses.
Master Aurelian’s sword was worth 23.7 billion.
It was that amount even though it was recognized by Aurelian.
A sword that would originally be worth hundreds of billions.
In other words, this meant that Chaerin would be satisfied only if the price was that high.
But, Chaerin’s reaction is visible now.
“It can’t compare to Master Aurelian’s sword, but it’s an excellent piece of equipment for a secondary role.”
Chaerin looked into Han Taesan’s eyes and answered.
And there was not an inch of lie in those eyes.
That makes sense, since he has used the gauntlet himself.
Because I could clearly feel its performance.
As the saying goes, it was incomparable to Aurelian’s sword.
However, it was performing its role as auxiliary equipment very well.
A grip that fits comfortably in one hand.
The efficiency of power amplification, even if only by a small amount.
Thanks to that, Chaerin was able to spend less time worrying about holding the sword.
I heard that among the best swordsmen, there is a secret method called the Paji method that teaches how to hold the sword.
That means that knowing how to hold a sword is quite important.
And Chaerin could immediately understand why this was so.
He had no hesitation in swinging his sword, as he had no fear of dropping it.
More boldly than before.
And it became possible to engage in battle more efficiently.
Just one piece of equipment can help you advance your skills to the next level.
“I am really satisfied.”
Chaerin spoke in a tone that did not contain a single lie.
“I’m glad you are like that.”
Han Tae-san showed a warm smile.
If Chaerin was satisfied, then that was enough.
There was an expenditure of 4 billion, but it was meaningless.
To be exact, I didn’t even care.
“If you need anything, just ask.”
“Thank you always, Grandpa.”
Chae-rin slightly bowed her head at Han Tae-san’s words.
Full support from SH Group.
But the reason for that support wasn’t just because she was his granddaughter.
“I think it’s time to start an S-rank dungeon raid.”
As expected, Han Tae-san’s gaze changed.
At the same time, the grandfather who had been visible just a moment ago disappeared without a trace.
What you see now is the head of SH Group.
There was one ruler who reigned over the business and political world.
Although he was clearly just an ordinary person, Chaerin could feel the majesty of an emperor.
Raid of S-rank dungeon.
On the surface, it could be said to be Han Chae-rin’s debut.
But the hidden meaning behind it was not like that.
SH Group’s first step towards advancing into the hunter industry.
“I have high expectations for you.”
Chaerin bowed her head slightly.
