I Found the Regressor With My Reflexes

31 – Waiting Room (4)

In the thick silence of the square where the massacre ended.

Kang Dae-san was the first to leave.

After that, Seol-i took care of Lee Seon-hwa and went back to the hotel.

It was quite pitiful to see the corpses covering their eyes so they couldn’t be seen.

… She decided not to follow through.

‘I don’t think anything will get better because I’m next to Lee Seon-hwa.’

Besides, I’m still a bit confused.

You turn your eyes away from those who leave with that thought.

At some point, no.

My eyes met with Han Seo-yeon, who was next to me from earlier.

“How are you feeling?”

“…Just like that.”

It’s not unpleasant, and it’s not like I’m going to vomit.

I feel very depressed.

It was an unknown feeling.

“Yes…”

Is it that he is considerate of me unlike Seoyeon Han?

Because I have a strange feeling about the way they keep silence.

After a while, Seoyeon Han quietly opened her mouth.

“Then let’s train soon.”

No.

I was talking about something.

“Anyway, I want to rest today.”

It’s the first day in the waiting room, and people… I killed it for the first time

In many ways, the sword is difficult to hold in the hand——but he said.

Han Seo-yeon firmly shook her head.

“So I have to do more.”

“…Why?”

“Because it’s better to push those feelings away as new memories than vaguely waiting for oblivion.”

“Mmm.”

“It’s only after being pushed away like that that it slowly fades away.”

That’s true.

Usually, as a half-joking joke, I called him senior in life.

I think it’s a bit cowardly to suddenly talk like a senior in life.

‘As expected, a regressor is a regressor.’

Because she had no way to refute.

I had no choice but to agree.

“Then it’s Dalian today?”

“No, I’m going to do something else today.”

“Suddenly?”

“Because you need to fix your bad habits too.”

Bad habits?

When I was puzzled, Han Se-yeon, who slightly raised her eyebrows, began to explain.

“I’ve felt it before, but you have a habit of trying to finish the game without any damage.”

“Is that so…?”

“Perhaps it’s because of my perfect reflexes, but it’s also my fault.”

To summarize the words of Han Seo-yeon, who started blaming herself.

It’s that I’m too accustomed to the type of combat where I make loopholes with my full reflex ability and end it in an instant.

‘Come to think of it, I’ve never used my reflexes properly.’

Maybe it was because of the fruit-inflated abilities and mana sim.

It must have been because his offensive ability, which should have been weak, was too good compared to other climbers.

─This is probably the ‘my fault’ Han Seo-yeon said.

“It got worse from the time I got the cloak.”

“Ummm…”

“Of course, that doesn’t mean it’s wrong. All you have to do is win.”

But, as Han Seo-yeon said.

I’ve always won that way.

… Except for powerful enemies like Gobrick and Haktan.

Most of the battles were closer to one-sided massacres than fights.

“But in the battle with Haktan, because you used the chukji at the beginning, you didn’t have enough means to finish it, right?”

As a result, I couldn’t show my skills properly in a real fight.

“We need to fight a little more boldly.”

… It was word for word.

“Surely so.”

Even in battle with Haktan, whose stats are superior to mine.

I was able to stand in a more advantageous position when I raised my shield than when I went on the attack.

‘The reason I chose the sword set in the ordeal in the first place was to make full use of my reflexes.’

From some point on, it seems that it relied on its full defense ability, which was only a part of its ability.

“If you fix that, you’ll be able to lead the battle more advantageously.”

Do you like my attitude of meekly admitting it?

Han Seo-yeon nodded in satisfaction.

“So today is defense training?”

“No?”

No?

“Today we’re going to do pain tolerance training.”

“Write.”

‘Should I run away?’

Although it was already a name that caught my attention.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t escape the golden eyes staring at me.

Obviously the flow of the conversation was good, but why did the answer come out like that?

The regressor’s head was too esoteric for the criminal to understand.

“It’s an essential skill for a tanker.”

“…Is it simply to suffer?”

“Not so savage.”

As expected, regressors have all kinds of methods.

Relieved inside.

I’m waiting for the next explanation.

– Talk.

Han Seo-yeon’s hand touched my shoulder.

“I’ll do it more efficiently.”

“—Kuhuheugh!?!”

In an instant, a thrilling pain spread throughout my body.

The incomprehensible pain lasted for a very short time, then disappeared like a mirage.

“Keuh…Uh?”

To me who doesn’t know English.

“I damaged some of my bones and internal muscles with magic.”

Han Seo-yeon kindly explained.

“Is that so…”

“This is the least painful way to get pain tolerance.”

I see.

There were a lot of things I wanted to ask.

Perhaps he had just used up all the oxygen in his lungs by screaming, and he was gasping for oxygen and didn’t have time to breathe.

Fortunately, I don’t have to do this all day.

“Pain tolerance makes you feel the pain a little more objectively.”

A short break was given with an explanation.

“Muscle spasms and reflexes like tears are minimized so there’s no waste. Come on.”

“aaa!!!”

Again suddenly!

After that, it was repeated.

Take the pain, wait until you feel better with regeneration.

It suffers when played again.

“Turn it off.”

“It has the ability to regenerate, so if you do well, you should be able to finish it within today.”

“Just kill me…”

As a reaction to the pain, I felt a sense of shame because I had become quite ugly.

The fear of the pain that will come again is a bonus.

“Looking at what you’re talking about, it looks like you’re still okay.”

… How could the words just now be understood in such a way?

“Ahhhhh!”

I was really curious, but the pain that came soon made me forget even that.

At some point, I kept repeating him.

[You have acquired Pain Resistance (F).]

Slightly out of mind.

It’s a little different from fainting, but as Han Seo-yeon said, it should be said that she became a little detached from the pain.

It is a strange feeling.

Should I say it feels like looking at yourself in the third person?

“Looks, looks.”

“Pain tolerance?”

“Yes…”

“Then let’s take a break and move on to the next step.”

Is there a next step?

Because it spreads while feeling dizzy.

The conversation started with another topic.

“The last time you fought Haktan. Wasn’t there a reward?”

“…Ah. That.”

“Is there?”

Han Seo-yeon, whose eyes sparkle at my words.

“There was… But I suddenly moved to the waiting room and couldn’t check it.”

“…Oops.”

“No, because I was too sudden…”

“Look at the status window first.”

It’s a little unfair to make that expression, but I’ll have to check it out first.

“Status window.”

《Status Window: Hyunwoo Nam》

“There is no noticeable change in the status window.”

“Really?”

Hearing my words, Han Seo-yeon’s eyes scan my body here and there.

“Take off your clothes for a second.”

“…?”

“Quickly.”

I was taken aback for a moment.

I had no choice but to take off her clothes as her golden eyes stared at me without the slightest hint of darkness.

Of course, only the upper body.

Take off the top and stretch the ‘perfect preparation’.

– Suwook.

Then, ‘perfect preparation’ increased as if it were in a cartoon.

It splits in half from the back, then spits out my body and puts it back together.

‘… I wish it was as comfortable as half of this.’

Do you think so and wait patiently?

Han Seo-yeon, who was examining my body, tilted her head.

“I don’t see any new equipment.”

“Really?”

“This can’t be…?”

Han Seo-yeon, who slightly frowned at her, was struggling.

She raised two fingers.

“If this is the case, the possibilities are a little different.”

“Two.”

“Yes. I haven’t received one yet.”

I took a peek at my sword and shield at this point.

Perhaps it seemed to be referring to the possibility of (direct receipt).

“Or it hasn’t manifested yet.”

“It didn’t manifest?”

“Yes. It hasn’t surfaced yet.”

“Is it like a creature inside an egg?”

Things that are alive but still difficult to see as a whole.

It seemed that such a state could not be seen with Han Seo-yeon’s eyes.

“Similar.”

“Hmm.”

If this is the case, there are more questions.

“Let’s move on to compensation.”

“Yes.”

“I’m going to do attribute resistance training now.”

As soon as I heard her name, I slipped away from her this time.

“You want to run away?”

– Serung.

I stopped immediately at the sound of the sword being drawn.

“That, Seo Yeon-ah.”

“Why Hyunwoo?”

“I don’t think this savage way is very good.”

“I know. I don’t like it.”

It was half a joke.

Because of Han Seo-yeon, who suddenly gets depressed, I think something is wrong.

“But you know by now that strength is everything in the Tower.”

“….”

I followed Seoyeon Han’s eyes, which were not looking at me, and saw the bodies I killed.

“They didn’t become like that because they were weak, but anyone could become like that if the strong wanted it.”

Then he pointed a sword at my throat and said,

“From now on, if you don’t kill everyone in the waiting room, I’ll kill Snow White.”

… Even knowing that it wasn’t true, it was very unpleasant.

“─You really don’t think anyone would do something like this?”

However, there is sadness somewhere in Han Seo-yeon’s appeal.

I couldn’t open my mouth recklessly.

“…You can do it. If you do it.”

“Good idea. Sit here.”

Let’s sigh and sit in the position Han Seo-yeon designated.

Her expression returned to normal in an instant.

‘Have you been tricked?’

It made me feel a bit complicated at the change to the point where I felt that way at the moment.

Han Seo-yeon just started carving something of her on my back with her calm face.

“Huh…”

Of course it hurt to cut her flesh with her knife.

She was barely able to endure without moving, perhaps thanks to her pain resistance.

… It’s strange.

This tower was also a f*cking place.
