Chapter 136
Episode 136
An open-air bath at dusk.
The cold wind outside and the warmth of the bath were a refreshing experience.
‘…This is the black card’s rest facility.’
Feeling so comfortable, Shin Yooseong put his back against the marble and closed his eyes.
‘It makes me want to fall asleep like this.’
But I couldn’t.
No matter how good the open-air bath was, Sumire’s cooking was waiting outside. Sumire’s cooking is the best gift to Shin Yoo-seong after completing his training.
‘The smell… was really good.’
Contrary to his ambitious goals, Shin Yoo-seong felt happy in trivial daily life like fried chicken in curry.
PS-
As I move my arm slowly, the water from the bath scatters from my fingertips. Shin Yoo-seong felt that his body had changed.
The beginning of change is the room of time.
Yuseong Shin has evolved his ability [Enhance Concentration] into [Supersensory Awakening].
Previously, it was simply about speeding up thinking and increasing concentration, but the power of supersensory awakening transcends human limitations.
Right now Shin Yoo-seong just closes his eyes and concentrates his mind. Seeing things you couldn’t see before. I could hear what I couldn’t hear.
‘…I didn’t know there were so many wavelengths of mana around me.’
Even in water.
even in the air.
even in sound.
Like light and sound, waves of mana are also reflected from objects.
A sensation that no other hunter would have felt. Shin Yoo-seong was the first Hunter to clearly feel the wave of mana to this extent.
‘If this power…’
Mana Resonance.
An extremely rare phenomenon that occurs when the wavelength of mana is right. However, if you had super senses that could see the wavelength of mana, you could directly induce and manipulate it.
Mana Resonance is a power that can pulverize everything that is exerted by mana from the root.
‘…so far, no hunter has succeeded in this.’
Through training, Shin Yoo-seong honed his ability to concentrate, so he was able to taste a little of the realm called the sixth sense.
[Supersensory Awakening] is the power that I was able to obtain because I exercised those experiences in the room of time. In other words, [Supersensory Awakening] was the same as a characteristic acquired through Shin Yuseong’s experience.
‘…This is the only way I can prepare for my sister’s psychokinesis.’
What Shin Yoo-seong is holding in check now is not the rivals in the national competition.
What Shin Yoo-seong really wants to overcome is the monster of the Shin-Oh family who has never shown his all to anyone.
As long as Shin Ha-yoon declared that he would have Shin Yoo-seong. A head-to-head match was unavoidable.
‘…He’s the one who hid his power even from the family head since he was 5 years old. No one knows the limit.’
The only 7th grade member of the Shinno family. Shin Kang-yoon.
The only 7th grade member of the Yu family. Yoo Min-seo.
Even from them, Shin Ha-yoon has hidden her power. That is Shin Ha-yoon’s personality. From the moment he was born, Shin Ha-yoon was meticulous. It would never show its teeth if it couldn’t be swallowed.
In addition, Shin Ha-yoon’s ability is [Synchronization].
offense and defense.
near and far.
He was free from any type of battle. In particular, it is the worst match for a martial artist like Shin Yoo-seong, who has to close the distance.
‘I need to master Chapter 5 as soon as possible.’
After thinking, Shin Yooseong slowly got up from the open-air bath. Whether it was because he was relieved of fatigue from half-body bathing or because he organized his thoughts, Shin Yoo-seong’s body felt much lighter.

Shin Yoo-
seong drying his hair with a hair dryer while wearing a gown. Shin Yoo-seong’s face looked redder than usual, perhaps because of the heat from the hot water.
As if predicting such a situation, Sumire cautiously held out something.
“Yoosung! …here!”
What Sumire offered was banana milk, which Yooseong Shin usually enjoyed drinking.
“Oh. This….”
Upon receiving the banana milk from Sumire, Shin Yoo-seong’s face was spurious.
“…because it’s good to drink water before and after bathing.”
Sumire smiled briskly at the sight of Shiny Yooseong.
“It’s not good to have a sweet drink before a meal… but still! Because Yooseong likes banana milk!”
Sumire’s personality that pays attention to even the smallest details.
“thank you. Sumire!”
I put my mouth on a straw stuck in banana milk. Jyuueup- Let’s give strength and suck. The banana flavor and soft sweetness spread throughout the mouth.
Seeing Yooseong Shin genuinely happy while drinking banana milk, Sumire covered her trembling mouth with her palm.
‘Yoo-seong’s ears are so cute…’
Shin Yoo-seong is unbelievably strong as a student, but still so pure in this area. Sumire was willing to take care of Shin Yuseong.
“When are you coming? Yoosung~ I’m hungry.”
Suddenly, Kim Eun-ah’s voice came from afar. Oh Sumire! I was surprised and put my hands together.
“Mr. Yooseong… You have a good side. Do you like rice?”
Today, Sumire prepared Sokijiru, a local Okinawan dish made with pork, radish, kelp, and green onions simmered in soy sauce.
According to Shin Yoo-seong’s answer, Sumire intended to prepare one of noodles or rice for Shin Yoo-sung’s meal.
“I am both.”
However, Yoosung Shin chose both.
In response, Sumire muttered with a serious face.
“That way…”
Shin Yoo-seong choosing one of the two menus is a stupid idea.
Sumire nodded her head alone with a face that said she had learned a lesson, then greeted him brightly.
“…then Yooseong-san! We’ll be waiting for you at the table!”

London, UK. Clock Tower Academy.
At the top of the academy, which reminds me of a medieval castle, there was a huge clock on the wall.
The Clock Tower Academy, which has produced numerous hunters so far, is a proud symbol of London that no British citizen knows about.
However, there was one more famous than the Clock Tower Academy in England.
First is the King. Aris, the witch called the strongest hunter along with the Sword God.
The second is the only student of such a witch, and a student who conquered the Clock Tower Academy at the age of a freshman and was given the title of Oracle.
Lorelai Cornette.
“…Are you sure?”
graceful voice.
Lorelai, who had closed her eyes, rose from her seat, her beautiful well-groomed blonde hair moving.
“yes. Information from the British Hunter Association. The next opponent country is sure to be Korea.”
Sebastian, a member of the party, treated Lorelai with so much respect.
It’s like being treated like royalty.
It was not wrong. Lorelai, at least here, was like royalty. London, of course, was loved by the entire British people.
He is the only heir to the British hero, the Witch. It was the hope of shedding a new light on the British hunter world.
Proof of this is that he reached the top of the clock tower at the age of a freshman.
“okay. Korea… is it Korean?”
Angela, who was next to Lorelai’s small murmur, asked with a serious face.
“hmm? Lorelei. Is there any problem you are pointing out?”
The magician of cards. Sebastian.
hands that don’t let go. Angela.
The two men and women were more like butlers serving Lorelai than party members. But it wasn’t Lorelai herself who built that hierarchy. Loyalty born only from the hearts of the two of them. Lorelai, who seemed weak, had the power to strongly attract people around her.
“…no. Angela. There is nothing wrong with it.”
[Lorelai. Your teacher has a dream.]
It was the first time.
[…Only you in this world can make it happen.]
That Master is asking for it.
It was also about having a disciple. It was all on a whim that he chose him as his disciple. Lorelai knew Aris better than anyone.
Aris, watched by Lorelai, is a free person who is not bound by anything and has no desires.
[…even for the sake of. be sure to win Lorelai. My proud baby.]
That person asked for a favor and kissed him on the forehead.
Lorelai still couldn’t forget that moment. Just thinking about it for a moment immediately made my heart race.
Maybe it was natural. A request from someone I’ve always admired. Lorelai couldn’t help but be happy.
“I just… just remembered a request from Master.”
After she finished speaking, Lorelai looked at the pocket watch stopped in her hand with empty eyes.
Lorelai’s watch has stopped, along with a long-lost memory. But Lorelai didn’t fix the watch.
You can fix a broken clock, but you can’t fix the time that has passed.
Even if the clock stops, time doesn’t stop.
So, there was no way to restore the broken self.
The best way is just to be faithful to the present. Lorelai put her pocket watch in her pocket and slowly walked out of the clock tower.
Bubbly.
The thrilling sight of the Clock Tower Academy unfolds as you cross the threshold.
Lorelai Cosette.
All the students of the Clock Tower Academy were lined up for just one freshman. Students who remain silent despite Lorelai’s appearance. No sound was heard from the academy.
This is a pious ritual unique to the Clock Tower.
Breaking the silence, the Student Council President of the Clock Tower stepped out from afar to congratulate Lorelai on her dungeon challenge.
“…Vedrama. Kalt. to the oracle. God bless you.”
All the students of the academy drew the sign of the cross as one body to bestow blessings on Lorelei Party.
This is their support and prayer.
Lorelai was not afraid to participate even though she went to clear the 6th level dungeon with only 3 people.
I just silently walked forward with two party members.
