Academy Munchkin Grew Up To Become a Genius - Chapter 124



Episode 124 the Heart of the Red Cross (2)

-Wow!

Park Tae-ho’s embrace of Kang Seo-jun gained even more strength.

“Wow, wow… !”

It feels like my tongue is sticking out of my mouth.

“Western River is our family’s treasure!! A treasure!!!”

-Boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo…

“…Ugh.”

… Ugh.

The furry old man hugs me and rubs my cheek, making me feel like I’m being held by a muscle furry.

“Grandpa… It tickles.”

Please stop now…

Haha! I was in a good mood, so I acted like a fool. I’m sorry!”

Tae-ho Park let go of Seo-jun Kang and patted him pleasantly on the shoulder.

“Thanks to you for dealing with that troublesome demon sword… Tyrving, I’m in great shape today. I feel like I’m almost 20 years younger! I’ve reached my prime again in my later years!”

Haha!

Park Tae-ho shook Kang Seo-jun’s shoulder and laughed heartily.

Kang Seo-jun responded by shaking without resistance to Park Tae-ho’s touch.

“That’s good.”

It wasn’t just empty words.

This week-long farming trip was going to be a forced march not only for Kang Seo-jun but also for Park Tae-ho.

‘I have to work hard to destroy the Red Cross Society within a week and complete the hidden dungeon as a bonus.’

If his condition improves, he will be able to hold tighter than the schedule.

“Then shall we leave right away?”

Even while we are talking about this skit, time is passing.

The time that Park Tae-ho devoted to Kang Seo-jun was only one week.

In order to make the most of this week, I had to move as quickly as possible.

“Okay. I’m ready. Um… But you. Are you planning on going dressed like that… ?”

Currently, Park Tae-ho is fully armed with plate armor.

On the other hand, Kang Seo-jun was dressed in a white shirt and black slacks.

No matter how you look at it, it didn’t look like they were going to fight right away.

“Wouldn’t it be better to at least wear light gloves?”

Kang Seo-jun shook his head.

“I’m fine as is. I need to keep my body as light as possible.”

“Hmm. I guess so. Well, since you’re Seobu Kang, you probably have an idea. How do you plan on getting around? Helicopter or light aircraft? Just tell me. I’ll call you anything.”

Park Tae-ho’s words that he would even give away an expensive light plane to me if I just said the words were very reassuring, but there was no need for such a flashy thing.

“Helicopters and light planes are fine. “I plan to fly myself.”

“Directly? Huh… ! You say you can fly with your bare body now?”

Taeho Park’s eyes, nose, and mouth got bigger.

No matter how much of a regressor he is, he is still an academy cadet and he can fly long distances bare-handed?

“Yes. However, I think I will have to fly to know how fast I can get. Please understand if my speed is a bit frustrating.”

“Huh. Is speed the problem? That’s really ridiculous.”

Taeho Park couldn’t hide his expression of emotion and stroked his beard.

“Where to fly?”

“I’m planning to go to Gangwon-do.”

“Huh… It’s not even close.”

A look of admiration deepened on Park Tae-ho’s face.

“You are probably the only academy cadet in all of the world who would fly from Seoul to Gangwon-do bare-handed.”

“Haha…”

Because it was true, Kang Seo-jun also laughed heartily.

The average qualifications of academy cadets are around grade [D] Regardless of time and place.

Even world-recognized geniuses like the golden sun, Kenji Kuyamoto, are only rated [B+].

On the other hand, Kang Seo-jun’s pure specifications are currently rated at [A], And his actual specifications including all characteristics and skill corrections are rated at [S-].

[S-] Level is incomparable to most instructors, let alone academy cadets.

It was a perfect spec for playing in a tower full of all kinds of monsters.

‘Academy cadets are ranked [S-]… This is so ridiculous that there is no similar case throughout the entire history of the world. But of course I have to do this.’

Kang Seo-Jun’s goal is to become the ultimate king who surpasses even gods.

It was a goal that could only be achieved by continuously accumulating incredible feats that were unprecedented in the entire world’s history.

Because that’s what mythology is.

“You know. I’m just a shell of a cadet.”

Haha! Of course. But officially, he’s a cadet. And he’s my granddaughter-in-law.”

-Pang pang!

Park Tae-ho patted Kang Seo-jun on the back as if he was proud.

He was a very hands-on grandfather.

“Then let’s get out now! I want to see you fly! Take the lead!”

“Yes. Let’s go.”

Kang Seo-jun and Park Tae-ho passed through the lounge and hallway of the mansion and came out to the garden outside the entrance.

Kang Seo-jun stood in the wide open space of the garden and took a deep breath.

“I will take the lead and take you to the location.”

“Okay. Don’t fly too fast. It’s hard for people to keep up.”

“Haha…”

Even though he said that, he didn’t seem to have much expectations about the speed itself.

No matter how much of a regressor Kang Seo-jun is, his body is currently a half-awakened body that has not yet eaten the’Fruit of the Aspect’or the’Fruit of the Sun’.

It was historic that an academy cadet who had not yet fully awakened could fly long distances, but to fly faster than [S+] Grade Taeho Park was something that went against the laws of the universe.

‘I don’t know if it will work out as I expected.’

Kang Seo-jun also never expected that he could fly faster than Park Tae-ho.

I’ve flown countless times in the game [Grand Hunter Academy], But now that the game has become a reality, it’s my first time actually flying like this.

‘Well, in theory, it’s not impossible to fly faster than Grandfather Park Tae-ho.’

If I combine my current abilities, it would not be impossible to surpass the speed of sound and fly faster than Tae-ho Park.

But I’ll have to try it first to see if it turns out as I thought.

Seojun Kang slowly reviewed the steps required for flight.

‘First, start by floating your body.’

The first ability that is key to flight is 《Spirit Sensitivity (Wind) Lv. Narrative》.

-Huuung!!!

When Kang Seo-jun moved the wind spirit, a strong wind blew across the area.

-Whoa!

At the same time, Kang Seo-jun’s body also began to slowly rise.

“Oh!”

Park Tae-ho looked at Kang Seo-jun with eyes filled with anticipation and was impressed.

For a normal cadet, even this would be astounding.

However, for Kang Seo-jun, it had not even begun yet.

‘Let’s stay calm. If you surround yourself with the wind spirit, you will never run out of mana unless you run out of it.’

The second ability that is key to flight is 《Muyeong Black Wind Attack (2 stars) Lv. Epic》

Kang Seo-jun used the martial arts black wind technique to infuse the energy of wind and darkness into his body.

-Saaa…

Soon, black fog flowed from Kang Seo-jun’s body, and he felt his body becoming lighter.

Rather than saying the weight has decreased, it feels like I am less affected by gravity.

With the power of Muyeong Black Punggong, which contains the techniques of wind and shadow, the body was made like fog so that it could fly more freely.

-Huuu…

Kang Seo-jun’s body, which was much freer from gravity, was pulled by the wind and rose even higher.

‘Oh oh…’

It has risen so high that the horizon appears round.

Of course, it was my first time flying this high with my bare body.

-Excited! Exciting! Exciting! Exciting!

However, there was no fear or fear in Kang Seo-jun’s heart.

‘Amazing!’

Rather the opposite.

At this moment, the sense of accomplishment and elation of having transcended the limitations of wingless humans struck his heart.

‘Now it’s the final step.’

The third ability that is key to flight is 《Fire Attribute Magic Lv. Rare》.

From noble mtl dot come

‘If you add momentum by spewing fire under your feet…’

-Hwareuk… !

-Paaang!!!

“Oh my gosh!!!”

With the sound of tearing the air, Kang Seo-jun’s body crossed the sky at the speed of a bullet.

-Prrrr!!

At that moment, I thought the tremendous air pressure was pressing down on my face, turning everything from the skin of my mouth to my eyelids.

Kang Seo-jun quickly moved the wind spirits to create an air curtain that protected his face.

-Sweet… !

“Whoa…”

The transparent curtain in front of the face moves forward with the sound of tearing the air.

Now I can finally breathe comfortably.

‘It’s not bad?’

Even though it was my first time flying, the characteristics and skills felt so natural that it wasn’t at all as difficult as I thought.

‘I could speed it up a bit more.’

-Sweet baby!!!

Kang Seo-jun has increased his wind spirit and fire attribute magic even more.

-Good luck! Kwaaa!!!

The body, light as fog, flies into the air like a rocket.

-Wheeeee!!!

At the same time, the wind created a horizontal torrent and gradually accelerated.

-Sweet…

As the speed increased, I felt the sound of tearing the air getting further and further away.

And soon.

-Paaa!!!!

As soon as I felt the impact of a sonic boom on my leg, the sounds of the world disappeared.

“Oh, oh oh oh oh!!!”

The surrounding scenery changes indescribably quickly.

It felt as if the entire Earth had become a giant treadmill.

‘Fuck! This is life in another world!!!’

The exhilaration of humans who achieved flight for the first time, transcending primates that crawled on the ground.

Right now, dopamine was flowing like a waterfall in Kang Seo-jun’s head.

“Let’s go!!!”

Even shouts of excitement are buried in the speed of supersonic waves and disappear in an instant.

The heart of the Red Cross, the Gangwon-do hideout, was getting closer at a very fast pace.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

-Huuu… !!!

‘Her…’

Park Tae-ho followed Kang Seo-jun at the speed of sound and laughter.

‘It’s too much to chase after this…’

The maximum speed that Taeho Park’s armor 《Comet Plate Armor Lv. Legendary》 can achieve is Mach 1.5.

However, this is only possible when the armor’s output is maximized.

‘If you keep going at that speed, the armor gets ridiculously hot.’

If the speed was around Mach 1, a [S+] Grade body could withstand the temperature of the armor to some extent, but if the speed was higher than that, even a [S+] Grade body could not avoid burns.

‘It’s hard to make an old man suffer…’

Although he said that in his mind, the corners of Park Tae-ho’s mouth turned up happily.

Even if he is a regressor, he can reach that level at that age.

I couldn’t help but look forward to how much my granddaughter-in-law would grow in the future.

‘Kang Seo-jun… ! You are my granddaughter-in-law! I am happy as if I have won the whole world since yesterday… !’

The truth hidden beneath happiness was not always beautiful, but at least now Park Tae-ho was happier than anyone else.

It was a moment when Park Tae-ho’s healthy life span was extended by five years due to the happiness of having the strongest granddaughter-in-law.
