It’s an absurdly short amount of time for people to change. However, it was enough time to lay the foundation for the first hidden piece to be written down in history.

‘Crazy…’

My stats went up by 2.5 Even though I didn’t take any elixir for 3 days. If you take into account the stats that rise with transcendental strength, it was the same as a 3.4 Increase.

In general, considering that the sum of stats that a wizard character can raise for a month without taking elixir before entering the academy is about 5, it can be seen as a ridiculous growth rate.

It may be because I trained without rest with infinite power, but it also means that the Huron training skill, which served as the basis for it, is showing ridiculous performance.

‘Honestly, the Huron training method shouldn’t be bad…’

I added the physical training efficiency increase feature to this, so if I keep training, I might be able to surpass even the strongest mage character I’ve ever created.

Honestly, I train to the point of driving a knife into my body, but if the performance isn’t good, I wonder if I’m innocent even if I blame the real world.

Shuaaa-

I can’t go outside with blood all over my body, so I wash my body in the shower. In fact, you can go to the dungeon safely after training a little more, but there was a little problem.

‘I can’t turn the Huron training method to its highest efficiency.’

The Huron training method is accompanied by the process of carving magic circuits all over the body up to proficiency level 3, but with a magic stat of only 1.5, The current state was limited, and it was impossible to raise the proficiency further.

This means that you cannot train with maximum efficiency. Of course, even if the efficiency was a little low, it was okay to practice more safely and go. No matter how well you know how to attack a dungeon, it’s still dangerous.

I think I can safely clear the dungeon if I train for another week, but is there any need to take the risk now to get the hidden piece?

I decided to go out and think about what to do, so I looked at the mirror in front of me. In the mirror, I saw a boy with scars from knife cuts all over his body, with a much improved body compared to his previous life.

‘The face is… Similar.’

Gamdol Choi Ha-joon and ordinary person Choi Ha-joon had the same face. However, that terrible belly fat is gone, the fat on my face is gone, and maybe it’s because I’ve gotten younger about 10 years, but I look much better than I did back then.

I checked every corner of my body to make sure there were no more bloodstains, then came out and wiped off the water with a towel.

It was a bit tight because I grew up, but this was the best.

Not only did his muscles increase, but his height of 177 increased to 180 when he reached level 2 in the Huron Training Skills.

I felt good when I reached my goal height, which I couldn’t reach no matter how hard I tried in my previous life, but there was a side effect that the clothes didn’t fit.

“If the sweats are this good, the other clothes will just explode..?”

First of all, I bought clothes in a slightly larger size on the Internet, considering that I would grow taller than I am now, and then bought a lot of protein-rich canned food, chicken breast, and shakes.

The delivery will come tomorrow, so you will be able to continue your deep training again.

Ding Dong-

The sound of the doorbell ringing at the front door.

“Is it Sunah?”

Common sense tells us that delivery could not have arrived within 5 minutes of ordering, and usually the only people who could ring our house bell were Seon-a’s family who lived next door.

My only childhood friend, Seonah Baek.

The guy I am grateful for stayed by my side and comforted me right after my parents passed away. Seon-ah’s parents knew that I lived alone, so they invited me to dinner or prepared side dishes for me.

No matter how close Sunah’s parents were to my parents, I was thinking that I would definitely pay them back in the future as much as they had received a lot of grace.

“Hey. Hajun Choi! Why don’t you come out when you’re inside!”

Maybe because she knew that I always turn off the lights when I leave the house, Suna realized that I was inside the house right away. She went out to the front door and opened the door.

“It’s a little late to get dressed because you’re all naked. What’s going on?”

“I don’t have to have a reason to come to you, right?”

In my eyes, I see the image of Sunah.

A height of almost 155, black hair that reached his waist, and sparkling eyes that were black like mine in the past, but turned green because of the wind, a natural magic attribute.

The moment I checked it, I was able to recall an incident. At the academy’s first gate practice, an irregular that does not fit the gate rating appears and an accident occurs in which a student dies.

As the first main event created to warn users in preparation for future events, a girl with a strong sense of justice who handles wind magic fends off monsters alone and evacuates students, but she dies.

And the name of the student who died was always… Baek Seon-ah. When she belatedly sees the students who have fled, the instructor enters and kills her monster, but her Sun-ah’s death is already irreversible.

I made several attempts to see if there would be a special event if I saved the girl.

If I evacuate Suna first and deal with Irregular alone, I couldn’t avoid the death of my character, no matter how well I trained up to that point.

Even if I stayed with Suna and tried to stop the Irregular together, the A-rank monster was not a monster that only two intermediate students could stop. Both died before the instructor arrived.

After persuading the other students to send only one instructor to bring them, we all tried to deal with the Irregular, but the moment he burst into peer, all the other students except for Suna got scared and ran away.

In the end, the two remained and died again.

I made several attempts to save Suna, and the moment the character I blew up broke through the triple digits, I gave up on saving Suna and quietly organized another party.

It’s because I didn’t want to waste any more time and reincarnation points just to save an intermediate girl who didn’t have much of an impact on the second half of the story anyway.

Of course, Suna’s talent, as seen through Insight, is worth cultivating, but no matter how talented she is, why spend more time for a character she doesn’t need?

But things have changed now. Sunah wasn’t a character that I didn’t need anymore… She was my friend. There was a reason to save Suna at all costs.

To do that, I needed to become stronger faster than I am now. You should choose the best option for growth, not risk-taking and choosing safe options.

Then, it comes to the conclusion that we must go get the Hidden Peace today, not a week later.

“Why is your expression so serious..? What’s wrong?”

Waiting for an answer, Suna looked at my face and she put on a worried expression. Not wanting to worry her more, I smiled at her and opened her mouth.

“Sunah.”

“Huh..?”

“I want to enter the Celestial Academy.”

“What?”

Everyone in this world takes an aptitude test for magic on the day they turn 15 years old. No one has a status window, but through a machine made with special magic, the person’s stats or characteristics could be recognized.

Of course, you can’t see body-related stats or attributes, but you can only check intelligence, magical power, mental strength stats, and magic-related attributes. And my results from that test were disastrous.

Elements, spirits, divinity, and death all could not be used, and there were devastating penalties for magic power, casting speed, and activation probability.

I have a talent for dealing with simple non-attribute magic, so if I had a high amount of magic, I might have been able to work as a wizard somehow, but even my magic was the lowest.

Even after 10 years of training in the most basic mana sim method that the government distributes to all 5-year-old children, the fact that he only had 1.5 Mana meant that he had no talent for magic.

It wasn’t for nothing that my teachers asked me to give up my mage’s path and become an athlete.

“I was looking for someone who could solve my magic-related problems. Actually, after receiving the training for three days, it worked. If I continue studying for another month like this, I might be able to enter the school with you…”

She looks surprised.

“Really?”

“Uh. I don’t lie about things like this.”

Although it’s a lie that he found someone, it’s true that he can solve magic-related problems, and it’s true that she goes to school with her.

“Very good.”

Sunah, who is happy with her work and hugs me like when she was young.

It bothered me that the large area, which was not suitable for her short stature, was pressuring me, but I just stroked her hair like when I was a child.

“Thank you.”

Unlike when she was young, maybe it’s embarrassing to pet her, she blushes a little and answers.

“You have something to thank me for. You found a way.”

That’s not why I said thank you.

“You are with me then and now. Thank you for being with me during my hardest times and my happiest times.”

When she heard me, she suddenly lowered her head and opened her mouth while looking down at her.

“Why are you making me cringe today…? You said we’d be together forever.”

Since Celestial Academy is a dormitory system, there will be many days where I will be stuck together.

“And if you’re grateful, tell me to take care of myself…”

I think so even if I don’t say anything.

“Oh. I will, so don’t worry.”

‘I will never let you die.’

She promised in her heart that she would definitely save her.
