Hwaaaa!
As soon as the match started, Yeom Junyeol summoned Hongryong.
I didn’t expect him to use his light skill right away.
Hongryong looked at Kim Shinrok with anticipation, but he looked very friendly even as they were about to fight.
‘I think Kim Shinrok will wait before using his light skill.’
Did he summon Hongryong thinking that Kim Shinrok would summon a tiger right at the start?
As I thought, Yeom Junyeol spoke with regret.
“You’re not using your light skill.”
“…Do you know about my light skill?”
“Yes, Jegun hyung told me.”
It was quite unethical to reveal information about other players without their consent, but considering that the purpose of this match was for Kim Shinrok’s training, it was understandable.
Yong Jegun knows that Yeom Junyeol is here for Kim Shinrok’s training.
‘Both of them have similar light skills while Kim Shinrok isn’t that good with using his, so it wasn’t exactly hard to guess.’
The ostensible purpose of this training is to teach Kim Shinrok to handle his light skill well.
Yong Jegun deduced that much, but I wonder if he knew the true purpose of this training.
Yeom Junyeol explained what he heard from Yong Jegun.
“He told me that my skills and light skill are well known, so it would be fair to know each other. And Jegun hyung asked me to tell you that he taught me.”
“…”
Yong Jegun can scratch other people’s feelings even in his absence.
Kim Shinrok didn’t say much after hearing Yeom Junyeol’s words.
If Yong Jegun had come to watch today, he might’ve stopped the battle with Yeom Junyeol and taken a blow at Yong Jegun instead.
Even if he was provoked like this, Kim Shinrok stayed alert to see who wanted to take the first strike.
“I’ve said this much but you don’t want to make the first move. It’s as Jegun hyung said.”
Yong Jegun predicted everything just from his knowledge of Kim Shinrok.
If the head of the Dragon Clan weren’t here, Kim Shinrok would’ve said “That damned dragon said that?” while grinding his teeth.
“Jegun hyung told me not to go easy on you. He said you’re strong, Professor Kim Shinrok.”
Hwaaa!
After the provocation, Yeom Junyeol finally moved.
The flame he summoned was low, and Hongryong, flying in the sky, fired over Kim Shinrok’s head.
The flames from the two dragons attacked Kim Shinrok as if they were alive.
‘I thought he’d aim both in front, but he knows how to hold his back.’
Yeom Junyeol’s flame technique didn’t extend in a straight line.
Instead, he blocked Kim Shinrok’s retreat by launching one on his back.
At this rate, Kim Shinrok will be engulfed in flames.
Kim Shinrok rumbled over the flame.
Fwiing! Shwik!
Before the flames swallowed Kim Shinrok, he leaned over and swung something.
It was a throwing blade only the span of his hand.
The flame the throwing knife cut sharply lost its strength and disappeared only with smoke.
‘He blocked that kind of skill with that kind of weapon?’
I didn’t know it was possible to do that.
It seemed to be a similar skill to what Baekho-gun used against the Class 3-0 seniors using his wooden sword.
It now shows that he’s Baekho-gun’s student.
When Yeom Junyeol’s flames were erased, a sighing Cheongryong looked at the knife in Kim Shinrok’s hand.
“So Yong Jegun’s tiger friend is still using a throwing knife. Is he still reluctant to use a weapon that stands out?”
“He tried other weapons, but he didn’t change his preference.”
“Is that so?”
Cheonryong looked at the battle floor where flames poured out without saying anything again.
It seems that Cheongryong also pays attention to Yong Jegun’s close friend.
I thought about the two heads’ conversation.
‘If the descendant of the Bear Clan uses a weapon that stands out among the Tiger Clan, they will be wary. Maybe that’s why Kim Shinrok chose that weapon.’
If Kim Shinrok chooses a prominent sword like his teacher, it’s unlikely that the Tiger Clan will take it well.
That’s why Kim Shinrok tortures with tools such as school supplies which don’t seem so threatening, and uses a throwing knife that can easily be hidden in his arms.
Hwaaa!
“You can’t erase Hongryong’s maximum flame output!”
Kim Shinrok threw the knife again, but one of the fires launched by Hongryong remained the same.
All the flames from Yeom Junyeol were scattered, but some of the ones that Hongryong launched remained.
Yeom Junyeol continued to fire and check Kim Shinrok, while at the same time, he was preparing a big technique using fire columns that Kim Shinrok couldn’t easily erase.
Hongryong rose triumphantly in the air, awaiting the summoning of the huge fire pillars.
“It must be tricky to deal with Hongryong.”
Kim Shinrok, who was wiping away Yeom Junyeol’s flames, looked up at the sky and murmured lowly.
Hongryong moved toward the air to prevent flames from spreading out while sleekly avoiding attacks.
The afterimage left by the throwing knife and Hwang Jiho’s boundary collided, causing several sparks.
Kim Shinrok will be at a disadvantage if he drags it into a long game.
Even if the battlefield becomes a sea of fire, Yeom Junyeol will be safe but Kim Shinrok will be slow in his movements because he has to protect himself from flames and energy waves at the same time. freewebn ovel.c om
Such a loophole can’t be missed by Yeom Junyeol.
‘But Kim Shinrok looks relaxed.’
I felt a sense of deja vu from Kim Shinrok’s movements.
My class had a chance to see Kim Shinrok in action from our combat practice classes with Class One and Two.
Kim Shinrok was moving similarly.
“I wanted to watch Hongryong a little longer, but it would be hard to drag him out for a long time.”
With that, Kim Shinrok disappeared.
Hongryong looked for him, turning in all ways to find Kim Shinrok who suddenly disappeared.
Yeom Junyeol found him first.
Kaaang!
Kim Shinrok quickly circulated energy waves, instantly accelerated his body, and jumped at Yeom Junyeol.
Kim Shinrok’s throwing knife came in contact with Yeom Junyeol’s arms.
Between Yeom Junyeol’s torn clothes, dragon scales were visible.
Yeom Junyeol made a split-second decision, knowing that it was impossible to dodge danger, and covered part of his body with dragon scales.
Hwaaa!
Hongryong hurriedly fired flames at the two and moved the fire columns to try to surround them.
He’s thinking of swallowing the two with flames because the fire doesn’t burn Yeom Junyeol.
But this failed.
“Euhk…”
Kim Shinrok was physically overpowering, and Yeom Junyeol tried to retreat his arm he used to block the throwing knife.
Kim Shinrok lifted himself and went behind Yeom Junyeol, hid himself from the flames, and took the throwing knife to the back of Yeom Junyeol’s neck.
Yeom Junyeol covered his skin with scales but to no avail.
“I know how to aim between dragon scales.”
He’s had a lot of opportunities to observe it, being a close friend of Yong Jegun.
Kim Shinrok skillfully dug through the scales, teasing the end of the knife to his skin.
Although there was no blood, Yeom Junyeol breathed shallowly, perhaps feeling the sharp blade through his skin.
Cheongryong was shaking as if he wanted to knock the knife away from Kim Shinrok and drag Yeom Junyeol out.
I think he would’ve done that if it weren’t for Kim Shinrok, whom he trusted for a long time.
‘Yeom Junyeol is excellent but Kim Shinrok is stronger. I think he wanted to observe Hongryong first, but the difference between experience and competence is too big.’
Yeom Junyeol resisted to the end by using remote ignition, a derivative skill from his flame technique.
However, he soon realized that all moves were blocked and admitted defeat.
“I lost.”
Yeom Junyeol deactivated Hongryong.
With the admission of defeat, Kim Shinrok immediately took off the knife.
It suddenly disappeared, and I had no idea where he hid it.
“Junyeol-ah!”
As soon as the match was over, Cheongryong ran toward Yeom Junyeol as if he were flying.
Yeom Junyeol moved his arms slower than usual, perhaps because his arm was numb.
He didn’t have other injuries though.
Still, his energy waves are consumed and his body must be uncomfortable.
More than anything, Yeom Junyeol seemed to feel more sick that he lost.
Nevertheless, Yeom Junyeol comforted Cheongryong who was the most worried out of everyone.
“I’m okay, Uncle Cheongryong. I’m sure you were worried, but thank you for keeping your promise.”
“There’s no way I’ll break my promise with my nephew.”
“Yes, I trust you, Uncle.”
Yeom Junyeol wisely negotiated in advance so that Cheongryong wouldn’t intervene.
Maybe he knew he was going to lose.
‘He wouldn’t think that Yong Jegun’s friend for so long was weak.’
While Yeom Junyeol soothed Cheongryong, Hwang Jiho and Baekho-gun talked to Kim Shinrok.
Baekho-gun briefly praised him with a “Well done,” while Hwang Jiho comforted him that Yeom Junyeol wasn’t hurt and Cheongryong wouldn’t hold a grudge.
The match ended safely, but the purpose of it wasn’t achieved.
‘Kim Shinrok is strong even if he doesn’t use his light skill. We can’t bring out Kim Shinrok’s light skill with a small amount of power.’
I didn’t think anything would change just from one course with Yeom Junyeol.
I was expecting and determined, but I think I should step up as well.
‘This is why I wanted Yong Jegun to come.’
He can’t hide this forever.
Cheongryong is scheduled to go to the Dragon Palace next month, and depending on the situation, they’d have to fight together. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝙚𝒘𝙚𝓫𝒏𝙤𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝙤𝒎
It may be better to reveal it in advance.
“I’d like to give another training once Yeom Junyeol’ sunbaenim’s energy waves stabilize.”
Yeom Junyeol nodded as if he were waiting for my suggestion, and Kim Shinrok agreed reluctantly.
Hwang Jiho laughed with excitement as if he noticed my intentions.
Cheongryong was left wondering.
“Our Junyeol is very good and great, but Yong Jegun’s friend is a child who’s born with outstanding talent and trained for many years.”
Cheongryong meant that there was a big difference between the two, so another match would be meaningless.
I took into consideration my status as the Dragon Clan’s benefactor and chose my words carefully.
“Yes, Professor Kim Shinrok is strong. That’s why I want him to fight two dragons next time.”
“Do you want me to join in? But that would be too one-sided to—”
“I’ll be the other one.”
Cheongryong stared, not understanding what I meant.
Yeom Junyeol knew at once as his eyes opened wide and smiled broadly.
“I’ll also summon a Hongryong and fight with Yeom Junyeol.”
