After Returning, My Abilities are Infinite
Chapter 7: Friday’s second class was phenomenology.Friday’s second class was phenomenology.
“It has been a long time since the dimensional distortion phenomenon, cracking has occurred. However, the cause of the cracks and the type of cracks are still not well known.”
The world’s phenomena.
It is necessary for any superhuman to analyze the phenomena and to know about the previous cases, but it was a crucial study for hunters.
“Ah… When does it end?”
Teenage students who wanted to play in full swing could not stay focused on the class.
“You won’t make a mistake if you release your body. What was the 1st class today?
Besides, Friday was the day of the ‘real evaluation’, a decisive event for students.
The students were not as attentive as usual, as the class was boring, and they had a practical evaluation ahead.
“We can’t concentrate any more today.”
Lee Ho-Jun, professor of phenomenology analysis, disliked the situation.
He was still a high-quality man who was still receiving love calls from various guilds and government intelligence agencies.
As an educator with such standards, he refused such suggestions and then stood at the pulpit.
“There.”
Hojun Lee pointed out a cadet sitting behind and drawing something.
“Cadet Jung Si-woo.”
I slept through the first hour, and I didn’t raise my head throughout the class.
He was persistently vexing.
“You did not lift your head, but you wrote something in your notebook. So if I ask you about today’s class, can you answer correctly?”
I shook my head slowly.
Fatigue was pouring out from me.
“Ah… Well, yes.”
Responding confidently, Ho-Jun Lee thought.
He was already memorizing Jung Si-woo’s embarrassed face.
“What are you going to ask?”
I asked, looking at him through my sleepy eyes.
“… I think I’ve taken this class thoroughly, and I’m confident.”
The attitude made Lee Ho-Jun more irritated.
“The three largest cracks have occurred to date. Tell me about the nature of the crack and when it happened, and what happened to them.”
He asked the most challenging question he could.
“What? I learned that in class…?”
“How can you remember the features if you don’t even know about the three big scales?”
“I was really taken by that professor…”
The cadets around me noticed the difficulty of the question and began to mumble.
Everyone thought that I would not be able to answer, and would be embarrassed.
Lee Ho-Jun thought the same.
The question was about something he just taught in class. However, it was impossible to remember the traits and periods that were explained and the phenomena they caused in such a short time.
However.
“The great crack in Germany on June 20, 1991, a dark crack in China on January 14, 2003, and a red crack in Korea on April 7, 2006; these are the three largest cracks that have occurred. The largest crack is more than 10 times the size of the other cracks, and the monsters that appeared there were allegedly over-class A. The peculiarity is that all the monsters from the crack are large species…”
However, contrary to everyone’s expectations, it was not Jung Si-woo who was embarrassed, but Lee Ho-Jun and the other students.
‘… What. ‘
My answer was perfect. It had no gaps as if I had read it straight from the textbook.
‘… A cadet who just came to the second grade can give such an answer?
He explained the phenomenon with his own analysis, which was surprisingly sharp and accurate. Professor Lee Ho-Jun spat out the exclamation.
“…”
The entire classroom froze in silence.
I looked around and muttered in an indifferent voice.
“Is that enough?”

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“How did you know it in such detail?”
Jinwoo Lee asked me with a strange look.
“The hunting department should know everything, well.”
I replied loudly.
It was futile to dream of being a hunter and not know these basics.
Those who enter the catastrophic cracks can’t make sense of it if they didn’t know about them.
All those who think that excellent hunters are those with strong characteristics and skills must be stupid.
It was a lesson I learned from experience.
A strong idiot is only a hindrance.
The traveler murmured as he looked at me.
[An untrained body, but his head is full of knowledge about monsters.]
“…”
[You fit in with the users of Akashic Records. You’re filled with useless information.]
“Oh, stop it.”
[Why? It’s a compliment.]
I didn’t know if it was a compliment or a gag, but I wasn’t happy to hear it.
While in the middle of a conversation with the traveler, someone burst into the room.
“Full-scale performance evaluation begins in one hour.”
It was instructor Park Hyun-suk.
Everyone was focused on it,
“If you have personal equipment and a scroll or potion to use in a crisis, bring it all.”
“Scroll, Potion… This?”
Some frowned at these words.
Scrolls and potions were expensive items used by active hunters.
It wasn’t something that academy 2nd graders could use.
Of course, a handful of people, the gold spoons, could easily afford them.
But most cadets didn’t have that kind of equipment.
In other words, there was no restriction on the use of expensive items in the tests.
It meant that the gap that would result would not be reflected in the evaluation.
It’s like saying that they prefer gold spoons with expensive artifacts, scrolls, or potions.
It was natural for the students to look bitter.
Park Hyun-suk continued.
“Every year, when I say this, the students look unhappy.”
“…”
“I don’t know how many times I’ve said this, but one of the most important things for a hunter is preparation. And there is no limit to preparation. That’s also why cadets always complain. Shouldn’t the evaluation be fair, shouldn’t the scrolls and potions be disabled, or should at least the artifact be the same?”
Park’s eyes were burning bright.
“But do you think monsters are fair to hunters? Do you think that they would pity hunters who did not kill women or the elderly, or hunters who could not prepare artifacts because they did not have the money? There is no such thing. They are wicked, and they will swallow the weak old people and children alike. To take them out, hunters have to be stronger than these monsters.”
These weren’t words from an academy instructor, but the words of a retired hunter who had been active for a long time.
“So if you’re going to murmur in front of the monsters and say they’re not fair, don’t prepare anything.”
“…”
“That’s the first thing you need to learn to be a hunter. I’m not blaming you for lacking things, but for not finding other ways to fill the gap, for not finding enough weapons to surpass others.”
“…”
“Monsters are more powerful than humans from their time of birth. They can fly faster than the speed of sound, and their bodies are harder than steel. Are you saying that you will be dealing with such creatures and that it is not fair that students have artifacts, scrolls, potions? Huh?”
His words were harsh but laced with advice.
Park Hyun-suk went on.
By the way.
“When the test starts, let’s take a look at Cadet Jeong Si-woo since he said that he reawakened.”
Of course, my name was mentioned.
“Did you find a weapon you could use?”
“…”
Park Hyun-suk’s words turned into a threat as I left his question unanswered.
“I don’t want to hear you say that you didn’t find it. As I said, I detest those who are not prepared.”
“I prepared the best weapon of the second grade.”
“…!”
The traveler laughed.
* * *
In one hour, all second graders gathered.
Even with 400 people gathered, there was plenty of room, and I realized how spacious the training ground was.
I could see some familiar faces.
I was standing in the corner and staring at the other students.
As this is one of the world’s leading Academies, there were quite a few talented students here who will become famous in the future.
[Why are you looking around?]
“Ah… I’m just taking a look because they’re the ones I’m going to test with.
I was looking for talented people I’ve met in the future, but the traveler didn’t know that I reborn.
‘It’s a little too early to tell.’
I still haven’t been able to properly understand my personality and the identity of the traveler.
I’d be happy to be sure that the traveler is entirely separate from my dimension, and that him knowing about my regression can help. Or to be sure that it’s something you’ll never tell others …
Until I was sure, it would be better not to tell anyone about this phenomenon.
If they knew that I’m back from the future, there would probably be more people trying to exploit the knowledge of the future that I know than those trying to help me.
And it may change the flow of the future.
[I don’t think there are any great people… Is it a little different for you?]
“There is nothing very different in my eyes…”
I was killing time talking to the traveler before the full-scale evaluation began.
Thanks to the actual evaluation, no one was interested in me. I stood in line and fell away from Lee Jin-woo, so it didn’t matter whether I muttered alone.
The traveler murmured as no one was interested in me.
[You think only one boy, Jinwoo Lee, as a friend?]
“… Well, right.”
[It’s okay. A good heart is enough to make a
good friend.]
That was correct.
It’s not that good to get close to these guys in my situation.
There will be a lot more social networking than I could cope with.
So it didn’t matter if I didn’t have many friends.
“Everyone seems to have gathered, so let’s start with a brief explanation.”
The instructor explained the ‘real evaluation’.
Things I already knew.
In summary, it is similar to the ‘raid’ of online games.
Students are assigned a position that fits their talents, forming a group of 4 players to fight a monster that was captured from the crack.
‘Hunting skils’ are essential for hunters.
It was like experiencing hunting in advance.
Of course, the difficulty was too great for the students.
The success rate is less than 50% … The students continued to get injured one after another.
I have experienced it too.
I was in the auxiliary position, to carry the load from behind or to give approximate information of the monster.
Of course, after being given an insignificant role and being neglected openly, I never participated in the actual evaluation again
I remembered that the difficulty level was high.
But it seemed that the traveler wasn’t listening.
[This is a simple test. You simply have to face a beast with four trained humans?]
“Well, if you say so…”
[I’m looking forward to seeing what role you will receive.]
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“…”
Maybe this time, I might get a secondary role.
I said that I had awakened, but from what I saw earlier, it seemed to have piqued the instructor.
‘Well, you can do better than last time.’
Although I’ve only played one role in the field evaluation, I’ve played hundreds and thousands of times as an ‘analyst’ in the field.
Besides, even if I retake the secondary position, I have no intention of giving up.
If I proved my ability correctly this time, I would have another chance next time.
“Article 1 is announced.”
And then, the instructor began.
“Kim Hyun-Cheol, the front position tanker.”
The first picked was Hyun-Cheol Kim.
I think he’s overflowing with money. He bought a new sword, again.
I smashed his sword, but the guy was walking up with a sword better than that.
“…”
Then, when he met my eyes, he mouthed, ‘What are you looking at, you bitch?’ and stood in front of the instructor.
“Lee Hak-soo, assistant position expert.”
However, when I looked at him, I saw that his face was dark, it seemed like he was not expecting a secondary role.
It’s also good to hear that you’re an ‘expert’.
“Eugh.”
He seemed to sigh.
And.
“Next.”
“Yoo Ji-Yeon, rear position dealer.”
My head was spinning.
[Huh? Why? Is it someone you know?]
I was just looking at the woman strolling forward.
“what? Why are you here? You can’t be here …”
[What does that mean? Explain it to me.]
The traveler couldn’t hold back his curiosity, but I wasn’t in a state to answer.
The whole mind was focused on that woman, Yoo Ji-Yeon.
She wore a cadet uniform with a unique robe and a magical cap that fitted tightly on her head.
She had long, straight hair that fell to her waist. I glanced at the brim of her hat.
Her eyes were light purple, which was a bit unusual for a Korean.
It was clear.
‘It’s not Dongmyeong-in, it’s real. She was attending Hwayeon Choin Academy during this time? I never knew that … ‘
She was someone I knew well.
She walked slowly and stood in front of the instructor, timidly shrugging her shoulders, her face inscrutable.
It was very different from the Yoo Ji-Yeon in my memory.
This was a woman who didn’t match her at all.
… No, she asked me to call her my sister.
Numerous thoughts mingled in my head.
“Then, I will announce the last trillion.”
Of course, the instructor didn’t care about my musings.
“Jung Si Woo.”
Only
“Central position.”
Another unexpected event.
“… Yes?”
Why am I at the center?
[Oh, congratulations. It’s a decent role.]
In this outrageous situation, the traveler laughed and applauded.
I heard loud applause, and I couldn’t take my eyes off the instructor’s face.
What?
