Side Story Episode 12 – The First Disciple…?(3)
“Oh, it’s Saksin.”
Seo-joon turned his neck from side to side once at the stiffness that raged throughout his body.
Recoil using none other than the collapse of the world.
I thought it would be okay since I regained about 15% of my strength with the causal effects I’ve gathered so far.
Still, is the collapse of the universe a collapse of the universe?
I couldn’t fully control the recoil.
“The true collapse of all things is still unreasonable.”
Type 2 Superpower Nanshin (怪力亂神) and Type 3 Taeheo (太虛) seemed to be able to use it if it was overdoing it.
However, Jin Mansang Collapse is a technique that contains the secret meaning of the Cheonwol Meteor Spear.
In the current state, there was no sense of being a little burdensome.
“Because I haven’t regained my full strength yet.”
On the other hand, the power of the Jin (眞) universal collapse (萬狀崩壞) also had an insane effect.
Seo-joon shook off his stiff body and straightened his sights.
In the aftermath of the collapse of the universe, the dark forest has repeatedly changed and disappeared.
It was at a level that could no longer be called a dark forest.
“This… there won’t be any dead bodies left.”
I knew that the corpses of demon beasts were particularly expensive…
I thought that the Cheonwol Meteor Spear should not be used for the time being.
That time when I sighed as I looked at the corpses of the demons that had vanished like that.
“…?”
Suddenly, Seo-jun saw something strange in his field of vision.
A dark forest that disappeared while repeating changes and disappearances.
In the meantime, none other than Carls was kneeling toward Seo-jun.
And for what reason?
Carl’s expression as he looked at Seo-joon was nothing short of spleen.
“… what is it?”
Seojun wanted something and asked Carls.
Then, as if he had been waiting for Seo-jun, Carls immediately opened his mouth.
“Will you accept me as your disciple? Master!”
student?
suddenly?
Strictly speaking, it wasn’t all of a sudden.
I had talked about this before coming to the Dark Forest.
However, the conversation was interrupted for a while because Carls was suddenly petrified.
So now the situation itself was suddenly right.
“I’ll give you any money! Please accept me as your disciple!”
More precisely, it could be called sudden acceleration.
Seeing Carl’s rapid acceleration, Seo-joon felt like he was momentarily dazed.
No, but he’s the crown prince.
Is it okay for the prince to kneel down like this to others?
Is that a foreigner too?
Did he even know about Seo-jun’s question?
“What would be shameful for a disciple to kneel before his master? Besides, isn’t Kim Seo-joon a close friend of Taesa? But what kind of a big deal is the crown prince?”
“I haven’t said that I will be accepted as a disciple yet.”
“Please accept me as your disciple!!”
Carl’s head thumped at Seo-jun’s words and slammed it on the floor.
The question is, how hard did you hit it?
It was enough to make the ground tremble.
<Ah, I do that, but close your eyes and teach me once.>
Seeing that, the mentor took Carl’s side and approached Seo-jun.
From the outside, it seemed like he was doing it for Carl’s sake.
<It would be great if you could take this opportunity to build up your teaching experience and, based on this, continue filming lectures at our academy!>
The look on Seojun’s face didn’t seem that way at all.
Why, does it feel like you are taking the first steps to make Seo-joon an instructor at the Transcendent Academy?
well, anyway.
“Please accept me as your disciple!!!”
<I will support you as much as possible!>
Carl and Mentor began to persuade Seo-jun with all their might.
Seeing the two of them like that, Seojun let out a small sigh.
Apparently, it was because if he was not accepted as a disciple, he would cling to him until he was accepted.
And to be honest.
It means you haven’t accepted Cals as a disciple yet.
It did not mean that I would not be accepted as a disciple.
As said earlier.
Seojun had no intention of rejecting Carls if he wanted to learn it.
There are many reasons, but the biggest reason is only one.
“I will give you 50 billion gold per hour! So please…!!”
Because it was an opportunity to earn 50 billion gold per hour!
And 50 billion gold is about 500 trillion in Korean currency.
Simply put, it was an opportunity to earn 500 trillion won by teaching for an hour!
I still don’t know how much causal it will take to return to Earth, but whatever it is, 500 trillion per hour is really a snap!
Seo-joon suppressed the laughter that leaked out.
Even so, the laughter that keeps leaking out.
Fortunately, because Carls had his head on the ground, he was not able to see it.
Seo-joon pretended to worry for a long time.
After the laughter was completely removed, he shook his head and opened his mouth.
“Kuhmm, ah, okay. Stop getting up.”
Startle!
Then, Carl’s body trembled greatly.
Eventually, Carls slowly raised his head.
“That, what do you mean…?”
“yes. I will accept you as a disciple, so please stand up.”
Following Seo-jun’s words, Carl’s expression began to brighten the world.
“thank you! thank you!!”
And, far from getting up,
thump thump! Then he started banging his head on the floor.
Why… I couldn’t think of him as the crown prince of the empire at all.
When I first saw it, it just didn’t look cheap.
He could feel the dignity of the prince.
But what now…
“I will work really hard! Thank you Master!”
thud! thud!
What the hell is my disciple doing like that? For a while, I wondered.
<Let’s sleep! Let’s stop and talk about tuition!>
The mentor started rubbing his hands together with a sinister smile.
Then, jumping into Seo-Jun’s arms, he took out Seo-Jun’s smartphone.
<This is like this, that is like this…>
Then, after manipulating the smartphone here and there, how much time had passed.
Mentor quickly approached Carls and showed him the screen of his smartphone.
<The detailed curriculum should be designed by Kim Seo-jun, but as I said before, the lecture fee is roughly 50 billion gold per hour!>
“·······”
Hearing that mentor’s words, Carl felt a flash of consciousness in an instant.
50 billion gold, which is called lecture fee.
Isn’t this amount, which is about 500 trillion won in Korean currency, the name of a dog!!
However, from the point of view of the crown prince, Carls, it was not money that he could not honestly spend.
Although 50 billion gold was a huge amount of money,
This dimension, Astelgia, boasted about twice the area of the entire Earth.
And the Volunw Empire, where Cals is the crown prince.
The Volunyu Empire was the only country that dominated the entire Astelgia.
To put it simply, he was the ruler of a territory that would exceed all the nations of the earth combined.
Of course, it was impossible to even dare to estimate the national budget for one year.
Of course, the finance person will collapse with crab foam…
Still, it wasn’t enough to squeeze out the blood of the people of the empire.
Above all, the inaction that Seojun just showed.
If you can learn them, 50 billion gold is honestly cheap… I could say.
Ah, maybe.
“······ Go, it is possible.”
Carls swallowed bitter candy.
I opened my mouth with great difficulty.
<As expected, the crown prince! You are very talented in this regard!>
Then, the mentor raised his palms together and shouted.
After a while, I started manipulating my smartphone here and there again.
<Then…>
Then he nodded his head in satisfaction.
<This is an advance payment!>
He shouted with a very strong expression.
“······ yes?”
At the same time, Carl’s mind went out for an instant.
advance payment?
So… you’re saying you have to pay first?
Well, it was only natural to pay tuition.
But what about an advance payment?
It was no different than the forest of darkness.
But how did he give 50 billion gold here?
I don’t know if I know Carl’s feelings or not.
The mentor sneakily turned his head and looked at Seojun.
And the look of the mentor looking at it is like ‘I did a good job?’ It looked like he was saying.
“ha···.”
Seeing such a mentor, Seo-joon let out a small sigh.
Something like that…
Because it felt like I had accumulated karma.
Above all, Seojun had no intention of coming all the way here to receive the advance payment.
of course.
Seo-joon’s rule of thumb was to pay in advance.
But that was limited to Transcendental Academy including Jinrihoe.
Jinrihoe was not reliable,
Because the transcendent academy ate the concept of cause and effect.
But not now.
In the first place, there was no way Carls would take the money,
Even if you take the money, can’t you visit it yourself?
“That’s Okay. Don’t worry, I can give you the money later.”
Seojun waved and shook his hand and said.
OK.
<No, no, no, no way!!!>
Suddenly, the mentor shouted as if shouting.
The look on the mentor’s face was a mixture of amazement, shock and fear.
Mentors never seem to be able to do that.
He shouted loudly at Seojun.
<Kim Seo-joon is doing deferred payment!!! Hey, this can’t happen!!!>
“·······”
Seojun had nothing to say.
And did Cals think that Seo-joon gave him a great grace?
“Thank you very much, Master!!! I will never forget this grace!”
Carls was about to bang his head on the floor again.
“no! That’s it! It’s okay, stop!”
Flash!
Seo-joon hurriedly blocked Carl’s actions, even bursting with TRP’s speed.
After such a short fuss passed.
“More than that, Master. You can speak comfortably. No, please make it easy.”
Carls suddenly said to Seojun.
Seo-joon looked at Carls like that.
Talk to the Crown Prince of the Empire.
That’s none other than a stranger.
If nobles saw this scene, it would be an insult to the imperial family, a strict imperial law, and so on.
It was going to bubble and glow.
“Okay then.”
However, Seo-joon immediately let go of his words without any hesitation.
You said to put it first, what more do I need to say?
At a glance, Carl’s age seemed younger than Seo-jun’s.
“Thank you, Master!”
Seeing Seo-joon let go of his words, Carls lowered his head one after another.
But what are you grateful for?
No, more than that, why do they like being my disciple so much?
How can you be so stupidly lost in thought?
<The instructor is none other than Seojun Kim, isn’t it natural?>
The mentor spoke as if he knew Seo-jun’s question.
“yes? Why me?”
<Are you asking because you don’t know? Is there anyone who is at the same level as the director and perhaps looks for more?>
“Uh… why is that?”
<No, of course…>
The mentor kept his mouth shut.
Seo-joon’s expression was that he really didn’t know.
In fact, Seo-joon is only standing in the position of learning.
I’ve never had the experience of teaching anyone.
“What should I do first!”
That’s why I couldn’t even figure out how to teach that bright-eyed Carls.
Most of all, Kals uses a sword, not a spear.
As Seo-joon, there was also a worry that he was just accepting money for no reason.
“hmm···.”
Seojun was lost in thought for a moment.
Let’s listen to what the mentor said earlier,
The curriculum seemed okay even if Seo-joon designed it.
Simply put, it meant that you could teach Seo-joon the way you wanted to teach him.
Seo-joon calmly traced the memory of the past day.
And I was able to find the concept of ‘teaching’ in Seo-jun’s experience.
“first···.”
Seo-joon said confidently, recalling the memory of that time.
“Should we fight or not?”
That moment.
“…?”
<·······?>
The expressions on Carl’s and Mentor’s faces began to dim at the same time.
And unlike Carl’s, Mentor’s expression was even more miserable.
It was because he knew how none other than Seo Jun learned from Jecheon Daeseong.
<Ehh…>
leaking sigh.
<Who is the master and not the disciple?>
Now, even though it’s a clean fish,
The skeleton and roots did not go anywhere.
#
To be honest.
Carls knew he could do it easily.
Nice——————Billion!
“Cheuk…!”
At the blow, which was completely imperceptible even to the senses, Carls vomited blood.
“What the hell…!”
Carls forcibly raised his body from the floor.
A pain that seemed to cut the nerves all over Carl’s body raged through him.
A fight under the guise of a lecture.
<I expected it, but this is no match.>
Mentor’s grim voice reached Carl’s ears.
‘shit!’
At the words of such a mentor, Carls gritted his teeth.
To be honest.
I thought I could do it easily.
He is also one of the few sword masters in the Empire.
Looking at it objectively, Carl’s skills weren’t inferior at all.
Even though Seo-joon’s inaction was overwhelming, I thought I could feed him at least one shot.
I thought it would be possible to brush it.
however···.
“Should I change the way I teach?”
What a bummer to be able to do!
Seojun was really crazy!
The emperor really couldn’t compare!
Kals momentarily committed a disrespectful act of saying ‘something like that’ in front of the emperor, but Kals didn’t care at all about that kind of thing right now.
No, I didn’t even have time to care!
The emperor is the ruler of the dimension?
Stop talking funny!
If the emperor is the ruler of the dimension,
Seojun here was the creator of the dimension!
Can’t win.
No, you can’t.
Carls was quick to concede.
Carls suddenly stood up from his seat.
Then thump
Carl’s legs gave out and he sat down on the floor.
“I probably won’t.”
Seojun shook his head at the sight of Carl’s like that.
It was because the teaching had not been accomplished at all in this state.
“It’s strange… I was able to learn to a certain extent when I was learning from instructor Jecheon Daeseong.”
<That was Kim Seo-joon-nim’s insane… No, he was crazy… Most of the time, this is normal. No, it’s good to endure this much.>
“You’re crazy. Anyway, that’s a little bit—”
<Isn’t that true!>
The mentor interrupted Seo-joon with a shout.
Seeing such a mentor, Seo-joon had nothing to refute.
I did something crazy to give Jecheon Daeseong a shot.
“Then what now?”
<Let’s fight back later, how about teaching Rannachal?>
A mentor who was less than good gave advice.
“Um… Will Kals be able to learn Rannachal?”
<Anyway, Kars-nim is at a certain level. You should be able to handle the intermediate level of difficulty without difficulty.>
Seojun nodded.
In fact, compared to Seojun.
As the mentor said, Carl’s level was not inferior.
“What is Rannachal?”
Carl’s voice was heard at that moment.
“It can be said to be the basics of spearmanship, but um… it would be faster to show it directly than to explain it.”
Seojun lightly grabbed Longinus’s spear.
“First of all, if you explain the concept lightly, there are three types of spears called rannachal. All spearmanship starts from here.”
At Seojun’s explanation, Carls jumped up and straightened his posture.
Seo-joon adjusted his viewing angle so that he could see Carls well.
“First, Ran. It’s an abduction, a motion that bounces outward.”
Seojun slowly swung the spear of Longinus from the inside to the outside.
slow motion.
and momentarily
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!
With a tremendous roar, the vision in front exploded at once.
“This, this, what…!”
At the same time, Carl’s eyes widened and opened.
“The second is me. The action of pulling the bounced outside window as if it were wrapped around it inside.”
Seojun wrapped the spear of Longinus, which had been swung, back into the gold.
Ku-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-gung…!!!
At the same time, heaven and earth turn over,
Fragments of the smashed earth soared into the sky at once.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
At the same time, tremendous wind pressure began to sweep all directions.
“Finally kick. It penetrates like a dot.”
And Seo-joon’s movements that followed.
It was something that was completely unrecognizable to Carl’s eyesight or senses.
Spaaaaaaa!!
Before long, the scenery began to rage like a storm.
Before long, everything ahead was in the correct field of view.
It was open, as if nothing had ever existed there in the first place.
“·······”
Carls really didn’t say a word.
I really couldn’t say a word.
“This crazy.”
At least that was all I could say.
The reason was simple.
The landscape in front of you right now.
Because this was so fucking ridiculous!
However, Seo-jun said as if it was not a big deal and brushed his hands.
“This is the basic of the basics of spears, Ran(欄), Na(拿), and Chal(扎). Simply put, spearmanship’s flat hit? It’s easy enough to understand. What… can you get a sense of this?”
Fuck.
Carls muttered to himself involuntarily.
Fortunately, I didn’t spit it out,
To be honest, it didn’t surprise me at all.
That’s what Seo-joon just said.
What, what?
Spearman’s flat blow?
So that’s… you mean a basic attack?
it’s shit
This is really nonsense!
Seo-joon cautiously spoke to me as I stood blankly with such a shocked expression on my face.
“Maybe—”
“I will change.”
“Have I not said anything yet?”
Carls said with a very determined expression.
“Didn’t you mean to ask if you would consider changing your weapon into a spear?”
“Uh… that’s right.”
“it’s possible.”
Carls answered without looking back.
As a sword master, Carls has been holding a sword all his life.
In a way, it was like throwing away everything that he had cultivated and polished his whole life.
But Carls had no hesitation at all.
Rather, he had an expression of honor at being promoted to a spearman for the second time.
He felt apologetic for that appearance, but Seo-joon didn’t care much.
It was easy for Seojun to teach swords if he learned spears, and it was enough if he taught them well.
but.
“A spear you can use right now…”
There was no spear that Carl could use right now.
The spear of Longinus that Seo-jun was wearing was stamped with the owner’s stamp, so no one else could use it.
In the first place, all items in the Transcendent Shop were like that.
“Mentor. Can Carls also use the Transcendent Shop?”
<Uh… it’s possible in principle, but as you know, the connection to the system is now disconnected…>
The mentor tried to manipulate Seo-jun’s smartphone just in case he wanted to, but immediately shook his head.
“Well, then how do you do this… ah!”
At that moment, a thought passed through Seo-joon’s head.
Seojun immediately put his hand into the kibisis.
And what was taken out was a spear, none other than a long time ago.
To be precise, it is a difficult point to say that he is a beginner.
It was a spear that Seoyoon gave as a gift to Seojun, who used an iron bar.
A workshop favored by Geomseong, Seoyoon’s grandfather and the hero of the cataclysm.
It was a high-quality spear handmade by the blacksmith at the workshop.
After that, he bought a fake Longinus spear, so he didn’t use it much, but he had cherished it because he had received it as a gift from Seoyoon.
‘Come to think of it, I don’t know if Seoyoon is doing well…’
Sudden thought of Seoyoon.
It felt like a part of my heart was numb.
A face I miss for some reason.
If we meet again this time…
“This, such a good thing…?”
At that moment, Carl’s words brought Seo-joon to his senses.
Carls was looking at the spear Seojun handed him with trembling eyes.
It seemed that the quality of the window belonged to the good side even in this dimension.
“Use this for the time being.”
Seo-joon passed the spear to Carls without much hesitation.
Carls took the spear with trembling hands and looked at Seo-jun with an expression almost crying.
“I will work really hard, Master!”
Somehow, the liver and gallbladder, the appearance of Carls who seemed to spread everything.
In fact, it was nothing compared to the money Carl gave.
well, anyway.
“thank you! thank you!”
good was good
#
After Carls became Seo-jun’s first disciple (?).
Seo-joon calmly taught Carls how to do lannachal.
And maybe he had the talent to become a sword master at a young age?
Kals was able to learn Rannachal without too much difficulty.
Of course, it’s still a long way to go, but
Despite the sudden change of weapon from a sword to a spear, Carls was following along well.
So Seo-joon started to investigate the dark forest while teaching Cals.
Teaching Carls was also teaching, but
Clearing and investigating the Dark Forest was also important.
However, it is also true that it is too late to do both at the same time.
so that.
“Kuhak…!”
Clearing the dark forest was mostly done by Cals.
“Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!”
cooong!
The Witchbeast screamed and collapsed at the blow of Carl’s blow.
After confirming that the Witchbeast had fallen, Calth sighed.
He sat down on the floor helplessly.
“Heo-euk…! Heo-eok…!”
Carls, who has become a complete wreck.
It was enough to understand what kind of trouble Carls was going through just by looking at him.
In the meantime, Seo-joon trudged and approached the fallen witch.
And then.
Kwajik.
puck.
Start dismembering the body!
The process took about 5 seconds.
Seo-joon looked around at the dismantled beast and said to Carls.
“It’s Carls. Your center of gravity was shaken when you kicked. That’s why you’re here, see?”
“sorry!”
“The hole isn’t clean.”
“sorry!”
“If you do this, you won’t get the right price for leather.”
“sorry!”
Carls kept repeating that he was sorry.
Actually, I couldn’t hear what he was saying because I was so tired.
So I don’t know what I’m sorry about.
At first it seemed like it should be.
Seeing Carl’s like that, Seo-joon let out a smile.
In fact, even if it looked like blaming the dead body, it was all part of the training.
If you try to completely dispose of the corpse like this, the skill level of rannachal will naturally go up.
It wasn’t because I never got the proper price for the corpse.
Really.
“More than that…”
Seojun put the dismembered corpse into the kibisis and looked around.
So far, almost all over the dark forest, the situation has been thoroughly scoured.
“What the hell did Aren say was strange?”
Nonetheless, there was nothing particularly unusual about it.
“Did Aren misunderstand?”
It could have been.
Aren only speculates that there is something strange in the dark forest.
It was because I wasn’t sure.
That’s why there was nothing wrong with the dark forest.
This could also be a clue.
Above all, clearing the dark forest was something that could earn 100 billion gold, so it couldn’t be said to be a waste of time.
“Still, I might have missed something.”
I haven’t even researched all of the Dark Forest yet.
So Seo-joon moved slowly.
And just when I was about to tell the scattered Carls to get up.
<Seojun Kim! Seojun Kim! Come over here!!>
Suddenly, an urgent mentor’s cry was heard.
