12 – First broadcast, then (3)

That evening.

From noble mtl dot com

As usual, Eugene was exercising in the park in front of the house.

Since she returned to Earth, it has been one of her daily routines that she has not missed a single day unless there is something special to do.

“Haaa… “

Take a long breath in and exhale slowly.

After picking up a long twig that was rolling around on the road, swing the twig around like a sword.

And the sight of Eugene swinging a tree branch like a sword, people passing by the park or exercising at the same time stared blankly at it.

‘What is that person doing over there?’

‘Have you learned any martial arts? The movements don’t look like a joke.’

Anyone who has learned swordsmanship in real life will know this well.

It is easy to associate the word ‘swordsmanship’ with flashy movements in dramas and movies, but in reality, kendo in reality is nothing more than a list of crude and clumsy movements beyond imagination.

For this reason, ordinary people are often greatly disappointed when they see martial artists wielding swords.

To that extent, the swordsmanship that people subconsciously imagined and the actual swordsmanship in reality were far apart.

But now, Eugene’s swordsmanship through tree branches was different.

His swordsmanship didn’t just swing the sword, it looked like he was dancing.

The motion of unfolding the sword moment by moment was very natural, and in some ways it was even beautiful.

However, that didn’t mean that Eugene’s swordsmanship was nothing more than a simple sword dance.

Those who were watching his swordsmanship as if spilled on something had to taste the eerie feeling that their hearts were being squeezed every time Eugene’s branches pointed at them.

‘If that person had a real sword in his hand, I think he would have peed.’

‘I remember their faces, and if I ever run into them, I can’t fight them. I don’t think a guy like me would be just a handful away.’

Meanwhile, Eugene didn’t even care if the people around him were watching him.

Twenty years have passed since I worked as a hero in another world.

Having other people spying on you secretly or whispering while looking at you was a common occurrence, so isn’t it a bit funny to be conscious of others’ gazes now?

“Whoa… “

Eugene, who had practiced the swordsmanship he had mastered once, gathered the branches and held his breath.

‘As expected… I wondered if it was like that.’

Just now, Eugene wielded a branch and at the same time tested to see if he could capture his will in his swordsmanship.

When he fought Ariandel, he used his will in a state of extreme immersion, so he speculated that if he artificially reproduced a similar situation, he would be able to deal with his will again.

But as expected, the result was a failure.

He had high hopes just in case, but he was not too disappointed because he knew roughly what this would turn out to be.

‘In the first place, it was strange that I was able to unconsciously use my will before.’

To be more precise, it can be said that it is absurd that he was able to use his will so naturally in a state where there was no mana in his body.

Intention is a special power that is manifested when an individual’s will transcends even the laws of the world.

If you make good use of your will, it becomes possible for humans to wield mighty power that goes beyond their limits.

A while ago, when Eugene was fighting Ariandel, in a battle where there was no chance of victory, he won the victory in the end.

But since it is such a powerful force, in order to use it, you must first sharpen your body and mind to a very high level.

‘So roughly, with a human body, enough to stand alone against an enemy at the level of the Four Heavenly Kings?’

Only then, after the mere human will has become solid, will it be able to exert enough power to distort even the laws of this world.

That’s why Eugene couldn’t believe at all that he had unconsciously used his will just before.

Even if it was Eugene, who was active as a hero when he was in this world, the current Eugene who returned to Earth had only a small amount of mana in his body.

‘Of course, since I have accumulated experience, it would have been easier for me to express my thoughts than someone who didn’t know anything… ‘

No matter how favorable the conditions are for expressing one’s will than others, it does not mean that the impossible turns into the possible.

Then, why was Eugene able to use his will?

Just a mere coincidence? Or is there some other reason?

‘How do I know that.’

Eugene scratched his head with his hand and let out a sigh.

In another world, he was just a warrior before he was a hero.

A simple fighter who spends his time throwing his fists and watching rather than thinking theories in his head.

If he had been a wizard, we could have hypothesized, but unfortunately he was not a spellcaster who stood in the back row and clucked with magic.

‘Well, that doesn’t mean there aren’t any hints, though.’

Just in case, Eugene tried hard to practice swordsmanship in real life, but in the end he couldn’t express his will.

There was no possibility that his skills would suddenly decrease just because he wielded a sword in real life.

A master like Yujin was always able to display his skills regardless of changes in the environment.

Then there is only one possibility that can be derived from a series of facts.

‘The reason why I was able to use my will was because it was the world inside the virtual reality game?’

Even though there was no logic or evidence, Eugene somehow felt that this guess would be the correct answer.

‘If I could freely use my mind even in a virtual reality game… ‘

Perhaps, with that opportunity, I might be able to use my intentions in real life as well.

And if he can freely use his will in reality, it might be possible to quickly regain the power he lost altogether when he returned to Earth.

Of course, in Earth’s modern society, what’s the point of regaining the power he wielded as a hero in another world?

‘Still, he’d rather have power than no power at all.’

Well, like Marvel’s superheroes, they had no intention of protecting the Earth’s peace, but if they still have power, there must be a place where they can use it roughly anywhere.

Of course, all of this was just a simple assumption.

Even if it was just a coincidence that the previous intention was used, Eugene was still thinking about playing the virtual reality game.

‘Because it’s fun.’

I had given up on returning to Earth that I would never be able to fight to the death with anyone again, but it was nice to be able to experience such a fight, even if it was fake.

Ariandel captured by Eugene was only a tutorial boss in Nightfall, and even if it wasn’t Nightfall, there were infinitely many games he hadn’t played.

‘Of course, it’s not just because of that one reason.’

Eugene smirked and took out his smart phone from his pocket and opened KakaoTalk.

[Younger sister: I just deposited money, so check it out quickly.]

[467,300 Won has been deposited into Yujin Han’s account.]

100,000 Won that Eugene agreed to receive in return for helping with winter’s broadcast.

And the moment Ariandel was captured, 367,000 won in donations poured in from viewers.

A laugh escaped spontaneously from Eugene’s lips after earning a whopping 460,000 Won for just playing the game for an hour.

‘I don’t have to accept pocket money from my parents for at least this month.’

There is no place to go anyway, and there is no one to meet.

Of course, Eugene didn’t think of himself as someone who had no friends.

On this side of the world, it’s only been five years since he disappeared, so it wouldn’t be impossible to meet up with friends from high school if you put your mind to it.

However, for Eugene, his high school days were like an old story from 20 years ago, so he didn’t feel the need to meet them.

‘And what would they look like if they found out that I was spending pocket money on my parents despite being an unemployed jobless person without a high school diploma?’

Han Yu-jin, a legendary warrior who defeated the demon king in another world and saved the world at the end.

For him, 23 years old… In fact, receiving pocket money from my parents at the age of 38 was a very serious problem.
