The Returner Wants Complete Victory - The Returner Wants Complete Victory chapter 21

21 – 021. Training

“Are you quite hot? You don’t even have to scratch it gently. “I cannot take responsibility for what happens outside of this inn.”

Rick gave me a reprimanding look as he cleaned up the mess in the lobby.

In the end, the situation was resolved without any further fighting, but where did the scoundrels go to clean up after themselves?

Of course, the cleanup was the responsibility of the remaining homeowner.

“I was probably planning on killing him anyway, so adding a few words won’t change that.”

I helped Rick organize the chairs and took the word.

For your information, most of my way of thinking and behavior was influenced by my teacher Rick.

So even though he’s looking at me like that, I’m sure Rick is thinking the same thing deep down.

“… .”

It will happen.

maybe.

I knew that guy would make that kind of expression.

Rick even stopped organizing his hands and narrowed his eyes, glaring at me.

Stung by those eyes, I continued speaking as if making an excuse.

“And, isn’t it wrong to be worried?”

“What.”

“Let’s say Chae Yoon declares that he will bring all the troops of the Vegetable Corps and destroy this city. So which one is Rick going to be worried about?”

“… Of course… .”

Rick paused and kept his mouth shut.

If it weren’t for a hat rack hanging on your shoulder, then of course you would be worried about this city.

Generally, an average stat of around 40 is treated as a combat soldier, and if the stats are above 70, they are treated as an elite soldier.

And the Martial Artist League, which is making noise in this city as if it were something, has less than 30 elite soldiers.

The current state of the Martial Artists’ League, the largest group in Kirnyu, is that it has ignorantly increased its size with beggars who do not even meet the standards of combat soldiers or combat soldiers.

On the other hand, the vegetable corps only has 300 elite soldiers.

Of course, this side is a bit overly strong, but even if you consider all of the mercenary groups in Emur, there is not a single one where the number of elite soldiers is less than 100.

“Even if all the mercenary groups in Emur, including the Vegetable Team, Rachel’s Flair, and Derek’s Sangvis, join in, Raven will do nothing but buy time. “Rick, you’ve never actually seen the One and Only Kind, right?”

And even if all of those mercenary groups attacked, Yuiljong was the only one who could hold out until the knight arrived, and I succeeded in defeating Yuiljong anyway.

It was only then that Rick realized what he had been mistaken about.

“… “I guess there isn’t one.”

Not only Rick, but also the Martial Artist League.

Emur’s mercenary group mainly carries out requests to infiltrate deep into the empire in conjunction with existing Proa forces, such as the Knights or the Magic Tower.

Naturally, the further you get into the center of the empire, the stronger and more numerous the Chimeras become, and conflict with the only species is inevitable.

Even if you don’t fight directly, you can already feel the strength of the knights by watching them fight against the Yuiljong.

On the other hand, Kirnyu’s mercenary group cannot do that.

You may have heard many people say that the unique species is strong, but you have never actually seen it in person.

Their main opponent is an ordinary chimera commander who is no better than a centurion compared to a human.

Kirnyu’s mercenary group is something that even high-ranking Chimera commanders have little experience with, let alone the only species.

“It seems like the people of Kirnyu are taking this line too lightly, saying that they defeated the Yuiljong.”

That was also the part I overlooked.

When I saw that the mercenary leaders in Emur were trying to establish friendly relations with me instead of keeping me in check, I thought that Kirnyu’s mercenary groups, including the Martial Artist League, would also approach cautiously.

I never thought I’d be so ignorant about it.

The problem is that that strategy is pretty effective for me right now.

This is an abnormal situation where the magic power is over 100, but the remaining stats are only around 20.

Physical durability is low, and senses are also low.

This means that if you are ambushed while on the road, you could die without even being able to do anything.

“So what are you going to do? Are you really going to go to war with the entire martial artist league? I can’t help you with that. “If you have an accident outside, we will stop you from coming in.”

“I’m not going out.”

“yes?”

“I’m not going out. “I will take care of you for the time being.”

When Rick heard my answer, he made a strange expression as if he had never imagined it.

why. what.

If it’s dangerous outside the house, you don’t have to go out.

*

Just because you don’t leave the house doesn’t mean you’re having fun.

Even if the Martial Artists’ League hadn’t fought so openly in the first place, it was going to take a similar amount of time.

Whether I was going to catch monsters or people in the future, I and the kids needed time to train.

As soon as 7 o’clock in the morning, I knocked on the kids’ door and came down to the first floor.

As I was sitting at the table eating, Eunha and Bokyung appeared with disheveled looks and sat across from me.

Rick naturally brought me two more breakfasts.

Sausage, soft bread, and half a tomato.

Bo-kyung’s expression brightened after checking the menu.

“Hey… .”

When I saw that, Dad automatically smiled.

“don’t worry. “There’s no rye bread on the menu here.”

“thank god… .”

Bo-kyung sighed as if she was truly happy.

At that time, Eunha, who was quietly nibbling on her fork next to her, asked.

“So what do we do now?”

It didn’t feel like I was asking because I really didn’t know.

As proof, Seo Eun-ha had eyes that longed for something.

If so, I guess I should live up to those expectations.

“training.”

At the word training, I saw Rick’s ears prick up as he was pacing back and forth in the kitchen.

He is a man who enjoys teaching others to the point where he is nicknamed the Great Master of Kirnyu, so it is impossible not to be interested in him.

“But there’s something I have to do before that, so when you finish eating, let’s go to my room first.”

*

“oh… . This is the senior’s room. “It looks exactly like our room.”

“It’s the same inn, so of course it’s the same. “What are you talking about?”

“Ehehehe.”

When I entered my room, Bo-kyung started talking nonsense.

Is this an action to relieve tension in one’s own way?

I said, putting paper, a pen, and the status-boosting pills I got from the tutorial on the table.

“Before I start training, I need to know the exact level. When you appraise the pill, you will find out how much your stats can be raised to the maximum. “Write down your current stats and maximum values on this paper.”

After hearing what I said, Eunha and Bokyung started to feel emotional.

I watched that scene and was quietly lost in thought.

Honestly, it is difficult to figure out aptitude just by looking at stats.

Of course, it is true that the starting point is advantageous for those with higher thresholds, and it is also true that the high point at the end of the play, when all achievements, missions, and equipment are used, is high.

But that doesn’t mean it’s absolute.

Right now, my magical power limit is only 11.

Even considering all the people on Earth who came to Proa, it is rare to find someone lower than me.

But in fact, there are less than five people on Earth, including me, who have reached the point where they can summon ancient spirits.

Even though they had 130 or 140 mana, there were many people who were worse at using magic than me.

… Still, it is true that having a high threshold is advantageous, so it would be right to train in that direction until you figure out your aptitude in the beginning, right?

Should I ask Rick to help me?

If you have that type of personality, I don’t think you’ll refuse.

“I wrote it all down.”

Bo-kyung held out a piece of paper and said.

– Strength: 7 (19)

– Agility: 9 (23)

– Senses: 11 (27)

– Stamina: 8 (24)

– mana: 0 (33)

“The front is the current stat, and the back is the maximum.”

I expected that strength, agility, and stamina would be low due to the characteristics of women, but it was so unexpected that I was at a loss for words.

In particular, when it comes to strength, the maximum difference is nearly 10 compared to other adult men.

The good news is that the maximum magical power is quite high.

I can only hope that he has a talent for mana control.

“Is it really low…?” ?”

Bo-kyung saw my serious expression and asked me carefully.

“uh.”

Bo-kyung looked like she had been struck by lightning at my honest answer.

Can you read the word ‘kugung’ on a person’s facial expression? Is this also a trait?

“But it’s not to the point of being discouraged. The mana is rather high. “Anyway, you accumulate 100 stats later, so being 10 short now is not a big difference.”

It’s a lie. However, there is no need to break the will to grow by imposing the harsh truth from the beginning.

Bo-kyung will later understand why I said this.

mind… Because she’s such a broad woman.

Eunha must have written everything down, so she picked up the paper and brought it to me.

I’m anxious. Why does he look so unconfident? .

– Strength: 8 (23)

– Agility: 11 (24)

– Senses: 18 (31)

– Stamina: 9 (23)

– mana: 0 (25)

Fortunately, it was not a bad number considering that he seemed very unconfident.

No, it is rather high considering that she is a woman.

By the way, why does this guy have such heightened senses?

Not only is the threshold as high as Bo-kyung, but the current figure itself is quite high.

Is it the influence of intuition?

“Hey, senior.”

While I was thinking about what weapon would suit them both, Bo-kyung spoke carefully.

When I looked at her as if asking what was going on, Bo-kyung wiggled her hands, then closed her eyes tightly and spoke as if she had made up her mind for something.

“Can you please show me your senior’s stats too?!”

“uh? Oh, no problem. I’ll write it down. wait.”

I felt a little sorry because I seemed to be keeping too many secrets, or because I seemed too nervous to just ask that question.

It’s not my fault, I asked first, but would you be mad at me for asking that?

While I was writing down that thought, my hand stopped.

Come to think of it, you can’t write down 100 mana exactly.

“… Well, I’ll just write down the basic stats and limits? If you build up your stats later through achievements and equipment, you can’t tell others about it, right? If you talk about things like that carelessly, it may work against you when there is an enemy targeting you… .”

It’s true that you shouldn’t talk about stats carelessly, but it’s a bit ugly to do this at this time… .

I became embarrassed.

– Strength: 13 (28)

– Agility: 12 (29)

– Senses: 13 (27)

– Stamina: 16 (29)

– mana: 1 (11)

I hid my embarrassment and quickly wrote it down and handed it to Bo-kyung.

“Now, here. Other men are like this on average too. “In terms of strength and stamina, there are often people who are over 30.”

“Hey, senior. Do women on average have higher magical power than men?”

“no? Not really, right? The average mana for both men and women is around 20… .”

I kept my mouth shut instead of speaking.

Bo-kyung was exclaiming to herself, ‘Wow, there’s something even seniors lack,’ and Eun-ha… .

Your eyes are irreverent.

This is not a look you should give to the person who is your lifesaver and who will become your teacher in the future.

Let’s go to the training ground.

I’ll keep rolling until you both ask me to stop.
