chapter 4
4 – Sorcery, right?
*
“But Ha Jun-ah.”
“Huh?”
“You… You seem to have gotten a little stronger..? Besides, you’ve definitely grown taller than when I saw you four days ago, right?”
Having been with me for almost half of my life, Sunah noticed the changes in my body. In an instant, her height increased by 3 cm, and her body became somewhat muscular, although there was no way that Suna would not notice it.
“I heard that exercise has something to do with solving my problems? They say that I could grow taller in the process of solving my problems.”
I’m not lying because I’m going to solve the problem by getting a hidden piece with the stats I’ve accumulated through exercise. Training the Hurons was also a kind of exercise, so it was true that they grew taller in the process.
Suna released her arms from holding me and she looked at me curiously.
“Oh… Shall I take that too? I want to grow taller too…”
Sunah is almost 155cm tall. Now, compared to me, who is 180cm taller, she has a 25cm difference. A difference of almost one head. Still, I think Sun-ah is the right height.
“Your height is just right, but what?”
‘And the heuristic training method isn’t just about asking to be taller…’
I, who have a fairly high mental stat for my age, wanted to throw it all away and give up, but if a normal student tried the Huron training method, it was clear that he would give up after the first knife.
The creepy pain that seemed to pierce my spine was so intense that I never wanted to go through it again.
“Really..? Then, Yu Yi-seol and later, whose height is better?”
Yui Seol, belonging to the Yu family, one of the world’s top 10 magical families, was a great genius with a very high level of aptitude for freezing magic. Even though he hasn’t reached adulthood yet, he’s reached the level of a B-class wizard.
She was about 170 cm tall, and she boasted a sculpted face and a considerable body, so she was also the exclusive model for the Yu family’s guild and New Year’s Eve. Except for her blunt personality, she is a near-perfect woman.
She said, ‘Of course, there are a lot of people who even like her personality.’
If there is a fan cafe called “Ice Princess”, That’s all I’ve said. First of all, comparing Suna and Yui Seol, her height, skill, face, and wealth are all overwhelmingly superior to Yui Seol.
To be honest, in terms of talent, I thought the two were on an equal level, and the body… Suna was the winner. And to be honest, I actually preferred Suna’s height to a girl who was too tall.
“You’re better.”
She made an expression as if she believed after hearing my answer. Of course, you have to listen to Korean until the end.
“Although her face is prettier than Yui Seol’s.”
“Hey!”
Isn’t it too cheesy to just give compliments to a childhood friend? It was right to mix it up like this.
“Does she think she is prettier than Yui Seol?”
Seeing her angry look makes her want to tease her even more.
“Should I post this on the Ice Princess Cafe? ‘Breaking News) Celestial Academy freshman Baek Seon-ah remarks that I’m prettier than Yu Yi-seol.’ Or something.”
“Sir… You’re really annoying…”
At this point, I think I’ve had enough fun. Sun-ah is also the type who lasts quite a long time when she pouts, so it seems she needs to be released at this point.
“You know I’m kidding, right?”
“I don’t know..?”
“If you say yes now, your favorite dessert cafe will order you jumbo pudding.”
Then, Suna’s eyes shine.
“I know you’re joking. Let’s go eat quickly.”
As soon as the word that she would buy it for a dessert that boasts a considerable price came out, Suna immediately regained her usual appearance. She crosses her arm around my right arm and starts dragging me in the direction of her dessert cafe.
I don’t usually have much inspiration, but maybe it’s because the memories of Gam-dol Choi Ha-joon are mixed? The feel of her chest against her arm was unnerving. I thought that I had to adapt quickly because I couldn’t be a childhood friend of 14 years.
“Your arms are really thick…”
But it seems that Suna also felt a different feeling in my arm than usual.
“This is different from before. Would you like to see it?”
As she looked at her arm within her, I showed her the way she tapped her abs, spreading the fingers of her opposite hand. Her body is made very pretty, so I thought maybe she wanted to show it to others, but if she was Suna, she would be just fine.
Gulp-
I heard her swallow her saliva.
“…Yes.”
I don’t know why the guy who saw me naked a few times when I was young is so nervous. I just pulled up the belly of her sweats to show her her abs.
“How is it? Has it changed a lot?”
She
She asks a question, but she doesn’t get an answer from Suna. So I called out to her with a slightly louder voice.
“Hey. Baek Seon-ah!”
“Uh..! Uh..?”
“Why don’t you answer. Do you like my abs so much?”
Seon-ah, who was dumbfounded after seeing Choi Ha-joon’s abs. This is the moment to add a line of dark history.
“By…?”
“Then would you like to touch it?”
Originally, when you see nice muscles, you want to touch them. I heard that there is a custom at the gym to ask if you can touch someone with great muscles.
“…Do you really touch it?”
Sunah pretends not to be interested, but eventually says she wants to touch it. I nodded her head and her hand touched my stomach. She admires Suna as she caresses the hardened area with her soft hands.
“Wow… You can become this hard in 4 days. But Ha Jun-ah.”
She makes a slightly scary expression.
“…Why?”
“Have you ever asked other girls to touch me like this?”
She is a woman close to me, and Suna and Suna’s mother are everything. And I’m not a pervert asking a woman I’ve never met before, ‘Would you like to touch my abs?’
“How could I do that to anyone other than you? You’re the only one doing this.”
This means that Suna is the only person who can do something like this.
“Only me…”
Suna spoke in a small whisper, and her frightened expression returned to normal, no, a little brighter than usual.
“Your face is a little red…”
Suddenly, she released her hand from her abs and pulled her back before I could finish my sentence.
“Let’s go to the store quickly!”
For some reason, the tension went up, and she headed to the dessert shop with her.
*
After eating her pudding with her, we parted ways and headed straight to the wizard association.
To get the hidden piece, you have to go inside the mountain where the dungeon exists, but you can only enter the mountain where there is a high risk of a hidden monster appearing only if you have a wizard license.
‘I thought I would visit all of these places.’
The disastrous level of talent kept me down and I thought I would never come here. However, even though it was a bit far from the wizard, he eventually came to this place.
When I pulled out the number ticket, it was number 69.
“Number 69, please come this way.”
After about two minutes, I heard a voice calling me and I went to the reception desk and sat down.
“What did you visit?”
“I want to take the F-class wizard qualification test.”
The F-class wizard test is so simple that the test is over in 30 minutes and the results come out right away. Of course, I was the one who couldn’t even take on the easy test, but now it was different.
“You’re here to take the qualification test. After filling in your personal information on the document I just gave you, go into the No. 1 Examination room to the right of the counter.”
“Yes.”
He is an employee who solves the problem in a snap, as if he has not done it once or twice. After writing down information such as name, age, education, and contact information, I handed the documents to the staff and headed to the No. 1 Examination room.
‘Wow… It’s been a while.’
A device that shows the person’s magic-related stats and characteristics. It’s something I saw in my second year of middle school and saw it in two years.
“Raise your hand and infuse magic.”
“Yes.”
I put my hand on the device I met after 2 years, extracted magic from the heart, and injected some of it. After a while, information floated above in the form of a hologram.
Intelligence 2.1
mana 1.5
Spirit 5.0
The first thing I saw was my magic stats. First of all, it is possible to be an F-class wizard even if the magic power exceeds 1.50,000, So the first one was passed. However, the staff was very surprised to see the numerous negative characteristics emerging under it.
‘Because I’m the only one with 8 negative traits.’
Perhaps the person abandoned by heaven is thinking.
“…The mana level is passed, and you can move on to the next inspection room.”
“Yes.”
As I moved on to the next examination room, I saw a power measuring machine that I had only seen through the computer.
“Use the strongest attack you can use against the machine in front. You will be given up to 3 chances, and if the number exceeds 100, you will pass.”
A power of 100 was a level that could cause considerable damage to a goblin by roughly matching magic.
Goblins may seem weak, but in this world view, goblins are monsters with enough strength that even three strong adult males attacking them with cold weapons can hardly defeat them.
“Yes.”
I took a deep breath after standing in front of the power meter.
‘This will work…? It has to be real.’
“Strength.”
First of all, I decorated it as if I was using strength-type buff magic, gave strength to both legs, and put my fist into the measuring machine with all my strength.
Pang!
The moment my fist touched, the number went up in real time. The number that went up like that soared to 179.
‘Nice!’
I did not use any superpowers, and I broke through the power measurement test with only my pure physical strength.
“Uh…”
The staff couldn’t keep their mouth shut.
“Are you passing?”
“Passed…Passed…But it’s just magic, right?”
Even after she sees it for herself, she still asks me if it’s Gingamin or if it’s magic. When she looked at the name tag on her chest, her name, Choi Min-ji, was written on it. Rather, I asked her.
“Minji noona? Noona, right?”
“Yes? Yes…”
You must have seen my age when you came earlier, so I just called you noona.
“Do you think it is possible, sister, to draw three digit numbers from a measuring machine without magical powers?”
“Impossible…Isn’t it?”
It is absolutely impossible with the utmost common sense.
“Then let’s go to the next one.”
“…Yes.”
Anyway, it’s magic.
