novelGanesha 2
| ← Ch.463 | Ch.465 → |
There were fewer monster attacks now compared to when they had first started. However, they weren't easier to deal with. The wyvern attack had been all over the news. The areas the wyverns had destroyed were in the process of being rebuilt. At the same time, because of the scale of the attack and of how sudden it was, the evacuation shelters had been of little value.
Now, they had the new decomposition liquid, but the managers could always send stronger monsters.
Ganesha could help as well.
Before Friday, Junhyuk called Elise and Aditya and trained them. He called Sarang as well and asked her to participate in their training. During the training, he wielded Aksha's Longsword.
Junhyuk had come a step closer to mastering Aksha's Longsword, and he beat the crap out of the two champions. Elise was busy sticking her tongue out from exhaustion, and Aditya called Junhyuk a true warrior and asked him to teach him more.
Junhyuk taught the champion many things. He could've killed Aditya a number of times, but he was able to slow down his attacks at the last minute. Not killing was twice as hard as killing, and Aditya felt the gap between himself and Junhyuk.
Junhyuk kept training Aditya until the champion collapsed on the ground. Aditya was gathering his breath when Junhyuk asked, "Are you OK?"
"I'm fine."
He stared at Aditya. The champion had gotten all new items, but he still couldn't do much against Junhyuk. Still, he would be of great help when fighting monsters.
They hadn't distributed the Red Dragon gear to the champions, but Aditya was wearing armor made from A-ranked monsters.
Junhyuk offered him a hand, and Aditya took it and stood up.
"Fighting other champions will be hard, but you have unlimited lives, so don't worry."
"I can die?"
"Have you died in the Dimensional Battlefield?"
"No."
"Dying once can be a good experience."
"You want me to die?"
"You won't forget it."
Junhyuk had died many times, and death had helped him. Of course, Aditya objected to the idea, but death should be experienced. Elise had died, and from that, she had become a champion. After Junhyuk himself had died, he had learned more about Aksha's Longsword.
He had grown much faster since his last death. Aditya should die, and from that death, he might learn something about becoming a hero.
Right now, humanity only had two heroes, and Junhyuk had to fill the other three spots any way he could.
He patted Aditya's shoulder and left. Junhyuk went to watch the flight training at Guardians. All of those expert and above had to participate in it.
The drones used mana stones for energy, so unless they were completely destroyed, they would keep flying. With the advances in the drone industry, the drones were flying faster than ever.
"Did they use dragon scales to build them?"
Because the drones had been made from Chinese dragon scales, they were now jade. They looked like the Green Goblin's glider because of their color.
"They can paint them."
The drones had been distributed to all champions and experts. After training, they were extremely tired, but that was life. After the monster areas appeared, all the powered people did was train at Guardians.
Thinking about that, Junhyuk decided to give them time to relax. If training continued at that pace, the others would lose their minds. They had to relax.
Junhyuk went to see Eunseo, who was working on a pile of documents. She got up and adjusted her glasses when he walked in.
"How are you?"
He shrugged and said, "I'm worried about the others, but I realize now that I should be worried about you as well."
"What do you mean?"
"We should take a vacation together."
"A vacation?!"
Eunseo shook her head no, but he smiled and said, "Everyone is tense and overworked. People will collapse soon. I need to get them to relax for a while."
Eunseo agreed with him there and said, "Good thinking. No wyverns have shown up in a while, so now should be a good time."
The monster waves were not on a schedule, so there were no good times for resting. Still, Eunseo agreed with him anyway.
"We can't go far. How about Jeju Island?" she asked.
With Junhyuk as the center, he could take people anywhere around the world. His teleportation only had a radius of five meters, so he couldn't take many at a time. For that reason, he would need an airport to transport more people, so he agreed with the suggestion.
"I wanted to visit the shore of Inchon, but Jeju sounds great. I'll take them there myself."
They could fly to the island on the drones. It would be better than taking a plane and it would also be good flight practice.
Touching her shoulder, he added, "You should come with us."
"What?!"
Eunseo was surprised by the idea, but he smiled and said, "You need to rest."
She adjusted her glasses while he continued, "The powered people need you, and you need to rest."
She laughed awkwardly and said, "I have too much work. I can't go."
Junhyuk stared at the documents on her table and asked, "Which documents have you finished already?"
They all looked similar. When Eunseo pointed to a pile of paper, he swung Aksha's Longsword. The blade flashed, and the other piles of documents were shredded. Bits of paper were flying in the office.
"Ah... !"
Eunseo was speechless. The expression on her face normally didn't change, but now, she was shocked.
Smiling, he said, "Tell them to resubmit their work and let's take a three-day and two-night vacation."
She stared at him. He was unreasonably shocking. Those had been important documents from dignitaries and diplomats, and there had been many of them. He hadn't solved anything by cutting them up.
Junhyuk grabbed her wrist then and handed her the microphone for the compound's intercom.
"The champions and experts finished flight training early. Have them go to the second training facility."
"Understood."
"The novices will need a plane, " he told her.
Eunseo sighed and said, "They will. I have a cabin in Jeju, but it's small, so I'll rent a hotel."
"Is that possible?"
"The hotel will have other guests, but I'll pay them extra to close it out."
"Complaints?"
"We can ignore them." Eunseo stepped outside for a moment and adjusted her glasses again, adding, "We'll leave from Gimpo International Airport in an hour."
"Understood. I'll tell them we are going on vacation."
"OK. I'll tell the novices."
When he reached the second training facility, he saw the champions and experts already there waiting for him. They were curious about what was happening.
Junhyuk explained everything calmly, "We'll take a three-day and two-night vacation."
"A vacation?!"
Junhyuk tapped his head with his index finger and said, "You can't stay stuck in your heads all the time. All tense. We won't go far. We are going to Jeju Island."
"Can I stay and train?"
"No, everyone must go, " Junhyuk said, and everyone looked at each other.
Smiling, Jeffrey said, "My body aches, so this is good."
Junhyuk looked at them and said, "We'll leave in an hour from Gimpo International. Bring whatever you need for a vacation."
They all left on their flying drones, but Sarang stayed in front of him.
"Go get ready."
"I have to go?"
"Do you need your parent's permission?"
She laughed and said, "I need to go shopping before I go. I'll be back."
Sarang also flew away on her drone, and Junhyuk teleported. Inside Elise's lab, he told her about the vacation.
"Elise, take a break."
He had convinced Eunseo, but Elise shook her head.
"I don't have time for that."
To him, Elise was extremely precious. She needed a vacation, even if it meant him earning less gold. He had to take Elise with him.
"You won't ever have enough time, but you still need a vacation. Let's go."
After some thought, Elise said, "OK. I have a simulation to run, but I'll go after that."
"We leave in an hour."
She pondered something and said, "I'll take my drone."
"Have you trained with it?"
Flying a drone wasn't an easy thing. Elise had not trained with hers, but she smiled and said, "No. You'll fly me."
"What?!"
She pressed a button, and a two-person drone appeared.
"It flies the same as the one-person drone."
Junhyuk thought she had probably planned that. He gave her a wry smile and said, "Let's go."
