Chapter 146
He was in a room surrounded by transparent glass.
[Training Room - Dodge Curriculum]
[Difficulty - Level 6]
[Code-GA-SN2 Shin YuSung]
[User verification complete.]
YuSung checked the hologram.
Whir-
The sound of wind over the whirring of machines spread to the surroundings.
Tang!
At the same time, a mana bullet shot toward him. YuSung controlled the mana in his body.
I can even feel the texture of the wind Is it because of Super Sense?'
The mana bullet moved at 400 meters per second. The speed was close to how fast an actual bullet would move.
A normal student wouldn't be able to dodge it from such a short distance, but even that speed was too slow for YuSung.
'I can do it.'
He guessed the speed and direction of the mana bullet, which was simple enough if you knew the bullets properties and where it would hit.
Then he needed to twist the result. Shin YuSung matched his mana frequency to the bullet's and caused a mana resonance.
Battle God Style 5th Form - Wave Resonance
Blue light beautifully scattered away from YuSung's hands.
Whir! Pang!
The first mana bullet headed toward him vanished without a trace.
'I succeeded.'
It was the most basic type of mana resonance. It was so rare that a normal hunter might never see it in their lifetime, but hed purposefully triggered it. Still, he wasnt satisfied with that.
Slide!
YuSung extended his hands toward the second mana bullets origin. That time, it didn't end with the same amount of mana being shot.
Fwoosh!
With a simple hand gesture, the wind blew. It rose like a shockwave, and the direction of the shockwave changed in the direction YuSung wanted.
Pang!
The mana bullet shot toward YuSung was cut in half and scattered horizontally away. He could neutralize the opponent's skill just by controlling mana and also alter the trajectory of an attack.
He was the first hunter capable of using mana resonance as he wanted.
Shin YuSung fell into thought while looking at his hands.
'It's still hard to maintain the form I want.'
He wanted to maintain the shape of the mana that he'd changed the trajectory of.
If he could do that, he would not only be able to eliminate the opponent's attack but also use their attack.
'I guess it will be possible once I get used to the Super Sense a bit more.'
He had finished the morning warm-up, so it was time to meet with his party members.
'Then, should I get going?'
Shin YuSung left the training room, a smile on his face.

Within a room in Clock Tower Academy, The Gaon party members were waiting for YuSung.
"Should I get some snacks and tea?"
Since Sumire couldn't participate, she smiled awkwardly and looked cautiously at the others.
"No."
EunAh shook her head, and then she looked at both Sumire and Amy.
"I wonder who the last member of this round will be" Kim EunAh looked at the other party members while touching her chin.
Sumire and Amy looked at each other. Since Sumire couldn't participate because of the Saint's Sphere, there weren't many candidates left.
Amy carefully lifted her hand. "P-probably me? Sumire can't participate because of the Saint's Sphere after all"
"You have you used your Trait recently?" Kim EunAh was direct with her; Amy shook her head.
"I I havent No! I couldn't! I'm really busy! I've been working for almost 16 hours a day!"
As Amy complained, Kim EunAh frowned.
"Are you proud of not practicing? You're too lazy"
Amy's face teared up as EunAh clicked her tongue with her arms crossed.
"E-EunAh, you've changed! Since when are you so intense? Wh-who Are you?" Amy asked, tearing up while being held by Sumire. Amy seemed shocked at the change in EunAh's character, but EunAh's mind had been re-wired.
"Isn't it normal for Hunters to practice 12 hours daily?"
As Kim EunAh told her the training standards from YuSung's point of view, Amy shook her head while making a shocked expression. "You What happened to you? Who made you like this?! I've never heard of such a fierce training schedule! You'll die!"
"You won't."
"You'll definitely die!"
"But I did it."
"C-crazy. As expected, you aren't the EunAh I know Say it. Who are you?"
While Kim EunAh and Amy were going at each other, Sumire interfered. "But still! Maybe There's a chance Amy might be able to win, right? You never know until the end"
Amy made a bitter smile. "Really? I wonder if there's someone in that party I can beat They're all Sevens I, in reality, thought of myself as the party's mascot Like someone in charge of promotions"
Thanks to Amys low confidence, the atmosphere worsened. Although Amy was strong in the A class, there was still a distance between her and the Sevens.
Clack.
The rooms door opened.
Sumire's expression brightened when she saw YuSung.
"YuSung!" Sumire's eyes widened, and she seemed excited.
"I made everyone wait." YuSung smiled while looking at his party members, and Amy laughed.
"Party leader! I'm prepared! Since its like this, I'll do my best like my life depends on it!" Amy shouted confidently.
"Just don't get hurt." Kim EunAh said in a worried voice.
"I'm sure Amy will be able to do it! We're going to win this round, too!"
Clap, clap, clap-
Sumire clapped while making a kind smile, but Shin YuSung smiled awkwardly.
"Amy, I'm sorry."
"What?"
"There's someone else who's going to participate."
YuSung's shocking revelation caused Amys eyes to widen in surprise, and someone entered from the opened door.
He had a small height and a familiar face.
Unlike before, his atmosphere had completely changed. He was more relaxed than before.
"Hi. Long time no see."
The club room was turned upside down at the unexpected appearance.
"What's going on?!"
"So it was Lee SiWoo"
"Woah It isn't me."
Kim EunAh's eyes widened in surprise.
Sumire said, Aha.
Amy made a relieved expression.
Lee SiWoo smiled awkwardly at the widely different reactions.
"Yes. I'm going to participate in this round."
EunAh seemed suspicious about Lee SiWoo's skills. "YuSung, can he really beat England's team?"
"Yes, EunAh. I guarantee it. I believe in SiWoo's skill."
Because the party leader guaranteed it, EunAh wouldn't ask any further. Still, she couldn't help but be suspicious. It seemed like SiWoo was expecting EunAh's reaction.
"I understand why you're thinking that, but don't worry. Leave it to me I won't hesitate anymore."
Even at EunAh's suspicious eyes, SiWoo replied while making a relaxed expression. She wasn't sure about his skills, but his atmosphere had definitely changed.
SiWoo looked up at YuSung and smiled. "I'm sorry, YuSung. I was baggage until now."
SiWoo was thankful to YuSung for giving him a chance to change. YuSung was the only one who believed in his potential and had waited for him.
Even SiWoo's father didn't believe in his potential as a hunter and had proposed he should become a city guard, but YuSung had waited for him even though the match round was about to start.
He was a party leader he could trust and follow regardless of the situation. SiWoo looked at YuSung with eyes full of trust.
"And thank you If not for you. Who would've believed in me?"
EunAh wasn't swept away by the atmosphere. She sat on the sofa while making an uninterested expression. "So you became that strong? Well, I believe in YuSung, so"
Seeing how EunAh agreed, it seemed her personality had softened. Amy made a relaxed smile at having narrowly dodged danger.
"Okay. Then since everyone is here. How about we have dinner?"
"Ah! Dinner's great! Good! I want to try that. Sumire~ The party leader said your fried chicken curry is great~" It seemed like Amy had fully recovered. She reacted very well to Sumire's proposal to eat.
"Y-YuSung praised" Sumire looked at Shin YuSung with shining eyes.
"That's right. Your curry. No, your cooking is always delicious, Sumire."
As YuSung praised her with sincerity, Sumire rolled her arms up and shouted, "Okay! You all need strength for tomorrow's match, so today, I'll make fried chicken curry!"
'Curry'
YuSung nodded while making an expectant smile.
SiWoo grinned and spoke to YuSung. "Then, YuSung, do you want to try this after dinner? It's a cookie Sakura made."
SiWoo's words grabbed Sumire and Amy's attention.
"S-Sakura?"
"Hng~ Cookies she personally made? I'm good at guessing~ EunAh, isn't this~"
Sumire and Amy were surprised, but Kim EunAh didn't seem interested in SiWoo's dating life. She just yawned.
"Well, that's possible."
On the other hand, YuSung was more interested in the word 'cookie' than 'Sakura'.
'A hand-made cookie? It would be great to have something to drink to accompany it.'
As expected, YuSung was still unaware of such things.
