Hunter Academy’s Greatest War God - Chapter 129

Episode 129

[You have entered the Hidden Stage Room of Time.]

[Quest: Endure for 7 days.]

[Information: Time spent in the Room of Time does not apply to reality.]

All you see is darkness.

The tower’s hologram was the only thing that emerged from the darkness.

Pod!

However, when even that hologram disappeared, Shin Yoo-seong had nothing left.

‘The pocket doesn’t work.’

When vision was limited by darkness, the next target was hearing. My ears tingled and now I can’t hear anything.

‘…The quest said you had to endure it for a week. I can’t tell how much time has passed.’

Let your hearing and sight be limited. Shin Yoosung couldn’t properly feel his bodily sensations.

Even if you try to open your eyes.

Even if you try to move your body.

It’s pitch black where you can’t confirm anything. A void where no sound can be heard. It felt like floating in the deep abyss.

‘…7 days in this state.’

In the Room of Time, you cannot drink water or eat food. This is a space where all five senses are limited. I didn’t know that a normal person would go crazy in just one day. What’s even more frightening is that you don’t even know if a day or two have passed.

‘It’s a carefully designed space.’

Sensation is relative.

That’s why people see because there is light. Hearing because there is sound. You can feel the touch because there are objects.

However, the chamber of time seemed to limit all senses and erase even the challenger’s existence.

‘…At moments like this, what is needed is peace of mind.’

The situation facing Shin Yoo-seong now was unknown for the first time.

‘I have to keep my reason cool somehow.’

It was dangerous to go against the room of time and try to somehow confirm one’s five senses and existence like Yooseong Shin’s judgment.

It’s like struggling on the sea saying that you’re afraid of water.

‘…Fear comes from ignorance. No matter what senses the tower takes from me. doesn’t care.’

Shin Yoo-seong was alive.

I was thinking of my own will.

The ordeal that the room of time can give is enough to take away Shin Yoo-seong’s five senses. Of course, ordinary people would suffer every minute and every second, but Shin Yuseong thought that nothing had changed.

‘Anyway, the time we have to endure here is seven days, fair to everyone.’

Shin Yoo-seong changed his mind and thought of the 7 days given by the room of time as an opportunity.

‘Rather than just letting go…’

Coincidentally, Shin Yoo-seong also had a tower buff that reduced fatigue. A kind of challenge for Shin Yoo-seong. Just in case, he raised mana in an instant from the depths of his body.

Saaaa-!

It was only then that Yooseong Shin could feel a clear sense for the first time since entering the room of time.

‘…I can feel the mana!’

I couldn’t see anything in front of me, let alone light, but inside Shin Yoo-seong’s body, the mana of the thousand-year-old was running around.

With just this sense, Shin Yuseong knew that he existed.

But that wasn’t the reason Shin Yooseong was happy.

‘I can practice!’

Feeling mana means you can train efficiently in the Room of Time. Shin Yooseong was delighted with that fact.

Even Shin Yoo-seong, who has the ability to concentrate, could not erase all senses in any closed room. But the room of time was different.

This terribly quiet and limited space was rather helpful to Shin Yoo-seong.

‘It’s good that there’s a buff for the tower.’

Millennium Jade’s mighty mana.

The reason Yooseong Shin had trouble absorbing it was because of the unique nature of the mana of the thousand-year-old.

condensation.

While being tied to the leyline for nearly a thousand years, the mana of the millennium jade was firmly united. It was like an adamantine made of carbon.

Its power is mighty, but it is too much power to drag and use freely. So Shin Yoo-seong had to make the mana of the thousand-year-old be similar to the nature of the mana he had.

So Shin Yoo-seong chose a method. Breaking the millennium jade’s mana with your own mana, like splitting a rock into pebbles.

Of course, it was difficult to break the powerfully condensed Mana of the Millennium Jade.

‘…But it’s enough if I focus on it for seven days.’

Even the seven days spent in the Room of Time were only a moment in reality.

Being able to absorb even the mana of the thousand-year-old while clearing the hidden stage is a great opportunity for Shin Yoo-seong.

‘I’m expecting a reward.’

Even the hidden stage of the notorious tower couldn’t stop Shin Yoo-seong’s speed, forged through the King’s training.

* * *

Simple breakfast.

Bathing in a narrow bathtub.

Shopping in Hunter City.

Eating snacks and watching a horror movie.

As the night approached, the pajama party was over, and Sumire and Kim Eun-ah spent an entire day together.

Now it’s time to go to sleep after a short but long break.

Sumire and Kim Eun-ah were lying down with Orca as a pillow.

“…I really enjoyed today.”

It was Sumire who spoke first.

For some reason, Sumire’s expression was refreshing.

“…that’s right.”

It was the same with Kim Eun-ah’s expression as she looked at the ceiling. If the experiences Kim Eun-ah and Sumire had so far were as party members and colleagues, today’s experiences were as friends.

“Hehe, I… even when I’m drunk. I was very happy that Eun-ah said she wanted to play with me.”

At Sumire’s words, Kim Eun-ah smiled and said.

“What am I so happy about playing with?”

“yes? Eun-ah is so amazing. Unlike me, you’re sharp… strong… hehe, and most of all, you’re pretty, aren’t you?”

Sumire’s praise kicked in.

“Why are you suddenly like this? Big! It’s embarrassing…”

Kim Eun-ah cleared her throat, but she seemed happy at the compliment. Eunah Kim glanced at Sumire and opened her mouth.

“…You’re amazing too.”

“Me?”

“You are good at cooking. Very tasty.”

Sumire is proud of the story that the food was delicious. Kim Eun-ah added praise to it.

“It’s comfortable when we’re together… isn’t it different from me?”

“Hehe, but… I do think about that. If I had a little courage… I wouldn’t have hurt so many people…”

This is the first story that Sumire tells.

When Sumire recalled ‘that incident’ and smiled bitterly, Kim Eun-ah opened her mouth with her eyes still fixed on the ceiling.

“…we. Shall I tell you a secret? 3 each. I am of the opinion that friends should not have secrets.”

“Ah, three? All three of them have secrets…”

Let Sumire fold her fingers with a serious expression. Eunah Kim sighed and said, “Ehh.”

“fool. You can say anything roughly.”

“I came to study in Japan. …Actually, he ran away.”

Sumire tells the story from the beginning. There was no change in Kim Eun-ah’s expression. was just calm

“Because I… ran out of power and because of me… the students in my class got hurt.”

Kim Eun-ah, who had been listening to the story in silence, threw a comment.

“Are you scared?”

Sumire, who was talking, smiled involuntarily at the thought that she had been found out.

“yes. I was very scared. Facing the people who were hurt because of me… and enduring that guilt…”

Sumire took a breath.

For some reason, it felt like my heart was getting tight. But I didn’t know why, but I wanted to tell this secret to Kim Eun-ah.

“So I ran away blindly to Korea. I didn’t even tell Kirashima-san, the head of the party…”

Sumire’s heart felt a lot lighter after she told her all about it.

“Because of me, Kirishima-san… must have been hurt again. So sometimes…”

Sumire caught her breath while looking up at the ceiling. Confessing your secret was harder than you thought.

“Oh… I hate myself for being selfish. While only hurting others and running away. I’m ashamed of myself for coming into Yooseong’s party… and being relieved.”

When Sumire’s story is over. Kim Eun-ah frowned.

“hey.”

“Eh yes?”

Sumire turned her head at Eunah Kim’s call.

Too-wook!

Eunah Kim pressed Sumire’s cheeks with her palms and fixed them looking at herself.

“Ugh!? (Mr. Eun-ah?)”

“What is embarrassing about that and what is selfish about it?! When you meet a good person, of course you feel good! I would have never met you if I was in Japan! And you can be relieved! right or not?”

Kim Eun-ah suddenly throws up a passionate speech.

Caught on the cheek, Sumire murmured with difficulty.

“That skirt…”

“But what the hell! Isn’t that right!?”

“Let’s go…”

Tuk.

After hearing the answer, Kim Eun-ah let go of Sumire’s cheek. Then he sighed lightly to calm himself down.

“…If you are selfish. Are all people in the world selfish? never think like that okay?”

“Uh Eun-ah…”

Sumire wept in consolation. Kim Eun-ah gave up her arms as if she couldn’t do it.

“…Cries when something is wrong. Come on.”

Kim Eun-ah tries to hug Sumire and pet her.

Imprisoned –

However, Kim Eun-ah ended up in Sumire’s arms. In addition, this time, Sumire stroked Kim Eun-ah’s head first.

“Thank you so much… Eunah said something like that…”

Eunah Kim, who was trying to console her, was in Sumire’s arms in an instant, letting her head rest.

smack smack.

“I’m so happy that Eun-ah… is a party member!”

Eventually, Sumire starts to cry. Eunah Kim gave up.

‘…I should just stay like this.’

After the commotion passed, Sumire, who had calmed down, looked at the ceiling again and asked.

“…But what is Eun-ah’s secret?”

“me? It’s nothing compared to your secret. It’s just…”

Eunah Kim smiled shyly and whispered in Sumire’s ear.

“Will you not tell me~”

Sumire was taken aback by the unexpected answer.

Kim Eun-ah was smiling single-singly, smiling like a goblin, as usual.
