I Became a Student at the Transcension Academy

Chapter 7 - Growth (1)

-20km canter. [0km/20km]

- 500 squats. [0/500]

- 200 push-ups. [0/200]

- 300 sit-ups. [0/300]

- 150 pull-ups. [0/150]

This was the pop-up window that engulfed the screen.

And Seo-joon ignored it.

It was because the level required by the task transcended the concept of exercise.

Currently, Seo-joon has decided not to overdo it for a week.

For now, I just listened to the lecture and decided to start properly when I was discharged after a week.

but.

< There is an unfinished task. >

< Please complete the task. >

“Oops...”

When I clicked on the next lecture, the lecture did not play with the pop-up window that popped up.

I repeated it several times, but the only thing that came out was that I couldn't listen to the lecture if I didn't complete the assignment.

“What should I do...”

Seo-joon pondered for a moment, but quickly shook his head.

“Yeah, it’s only one week. There is no need to overdo it.”

That's how Seo-joon was about to listen to Shakyamuni's lecture.

Seo-jun caught something written in small letters in one corner of the screen.

< Remaining period until the member's free pass ends: 83 days >

Stop.

“Did you have a period?”

Seojun was embarrassed for a moment. He would do that too, because he had been rummaging through the transcendent academy for the past week, and now he knew that there was a period.

“I was too into the fun of reading the community...”

If you think about it, it didn't make sense that the period was unlimited.

Anyway, the remaining period is 83 days. At first, it seemed like 90 days and three months.

The problem was that Seo-jun did not have the confidence to complete the lecture he was currently listening to within the remaining 83 days.

It was impossible to know whether I would be able to complete the course even if I listened to Shakyamuni's lectures 24 hours a day.

He would also have to understand the contents of the lecture clearly and gain some realization about how this strange academy was in English to increase the progress of the lecture.

Naturally, he had to listen to the same lecture over and over again, and even though Seojun only listened to Shakyamuni's lecture for a week, the progress rate was only 1.3% for that reason.

I didn't know what they were doing, but there was no point in wasting time without meaning.

“Are you saying that the free pass is, after all, a taste?”

It seems that the transcendent academy is also an academy after all.

“I decided not to overdo it…”

However, I couldn’t help it when it happened like this.

“I don’t know.”

Seo-joon eventually left the hospital room.

After coming out of the hospital room, Seo-joon took a deep breath.

The feeling of clearing the mind as the air cooled by the winter weather passes through the lungs.

The muscles that had been lying down for a week stretched and rang all over the body.

“What shall we do first?”

Seo-joon checked his smartphone once again.

-20 km canter. [0km/20km]

- 500 squats. [0/500]

- 200 push-ups. [0/200]

- 300 sit-ups. [0/300]

- 150 pull-ups. [0/150]

All of these were not easy tasks.

So, Seo-joon decided to start with the simplest things he could do.

So, with push-ups and squats in between, I decided to do push-ups first.

“I haven’t been exercising in a really long time.”

To be precise, Seo-joon didn't need to exercise during that time. That would be the case, and what Seo-jun had been doing was transporting monsters raided by professional hunters.

And on average, the monster carcasses weighed about 70kg.

Of course, it was different depending on the grade and type of monster, but most of the monsters that Seojun had done were like that.

Carrying it around all day long has been what Seo-joon has been doing for the past 9 years.

Work itself was exercise, and moreover, Seojun was an awakened person, so he did not feel the need to exercise separately.

Awakeners could use a special power called mana. But being able to use it and using it were separate issues.

An Awakener, to be precise, was a person who had the qualifications to use the power of mana.

Most Awoken cannot use mana.

So, the place that teaches and reminds you of that is the Hunter Academy. This is one of the many reasons why people say that you have to go to the academy to become a hunter.

Of course, there were people who learned and used it on their own even without anyone teaching them.

Hunters who were called heroes in the early days were like that, and we called such people geniuses.

Seo-joon was just a person with a stronger body than the average person.

“shall we start.”

Seo-joon looked around and put his palm on the ground. And without hesitation, I started doing push-ups.

One... two... three...

How much time passed like that.

“Whoa...! 200!”

After completing 200, Seo-jun jumped up from his seat. His chest and arm muscles were trembling, but he was able to do about 200 of them without difficulty because of the jjambab he had been doing for 9 years.

Seojun brushed his palms and checked his smartphone.

however.

- 200 push-ups. [81/200]

“What is it?”

For some reason, instead of 200, only 81 were counted. Seojun tilted his head at the unknown phenomenon and looked at his smartphone.

Then a thought suddenly came to mind.

“no way?”

Seojun put his palm on the ground again. Then, after doing one push-up, he checked his smartphone again.

- 200 push-ups. [81/200]

This time, I did push-ups in an upright position as if I had just started doing push-ups.

- 200 push-ups. [82/200]

“Did you have to do it properly to count?”

Seo-jun sighed slightly. If I had known it was a system like this right away, I would have done it right from the start.

Above all, there was the hassle of having to check with the smartphone every time whether or not it was done correctly.

“Maybe that is also a kind of assignment?”

Seo-joon let out a timid smile and put his palms on the ground again.

.

.

“Haha...! crazy!”

Seo-joon was not kidding, he felt like he was going to die any moment.

After I had already completed 200 push-ups, trying to fill in the remaining 118 felt like dying.

That too, in a straight posture without any distractions.

Now, beyond the trembling of his muscles, he couldn't even put his strength into it.

- 200 push-ups. [157/200]

But this crazy task didn't even care about Seo-joon's condition.

It didn't even count if I didn't have the correct posture, whether or not I put strength into my muscles.

There was not even the slightest hint of tricks.

So, Seo-joon had no choice but to proceed in the form of resting for 1-2 minutes and then doing it once.

“Haha...! Haha...! can not! No more!”

Seo-joon gave up every thought of getting up and lay down. Breath and muscles that seemed to burst at any moment.

However, Seo-jun desperately reached out to check his smartphone.

- 200 push-ups. [200/200] (Achieved!)

Fortunately, Seo-joon let out a sigh of relief at the displayed task.

But that was only for a moment.

-20 km canter. [0km/20km]

- 500 squats. [0/500]

- 200 push-ups. [200/200] (Achieved!)

- 300 sit-ups. [0/300]

- 150 pull-ups. [0/150]

“Fuck...”

Seo-joon fainted again.

On that day, Seo-joon was finally able to complete the task.

Of course, like the push-ups, the other tasks also required correct posture.

In the case of a 20km canter, it was not measured unless a certain speed was reached.

So, by the end of the film, Seo-joon had almost become a madman, and the time of a day had disappeared just like that.

The muscle pain that makes you feel like you're going crazy the next day is a bonus.

Contrary to Seo-jun's expectation that he would not be able to move, he was able to move to some extent.

It seemed that there was a compensating effect because it was a transcendent academy task rather than a general task.

More than anything else, Seo-Jun thought that since he was able to attend Chiron's next lecture, he was able to endure it.

but.

< There is an unfinished task. >

< Please complete the task. >

“What is it?”

For some reason, there was only a phrase that said that if you did not complete the assignment, you would not be able to attend the lecture.

Seo-jun checked the assignment with a feeling of just in case.

-20 km canter. [0km/20km]

- 500 squats. [0/500]

- 200 push-ups. [0/200]

- 300 sit-ups. [0/300]

- 150 pull-ups. [0/150]

Then the tasks that have been initialized.

“This crazy...”

Only then did Seo-joon realize that the task was a ‘daily' task.

In a word, it meant that you could take the next lecture when you could complete the assignment in one day.

“Haa...”

Seo-joon had no choice but to leave the hospital room again to eat mustard while crying.

After that, another 5 days passed.

And in the meantime, Seo-jun's life was like this.

As soon as I wake up in the morning, I carry out Chiron's daily task. And before going to bed, listen to Shakyamuni's lectures.

Of course, the whole day had passed when Chiron's assignments were completed, but Seo-jun could feel himself changing day by day.

That's because the speed at which the body develops was visible.

The human body cannot grow all at once in a short period of time. It is common sense to grow through a long period of recovery.

However, exercises through daily tasks did not.

Would it be like this if I took my body apart and reassembled it every day?

“It's crazy, it's just...”

Seo-joon could only express it that way.

That's how I was on my way back to the hospital room after finishing my homework today.

“oh? Are you on your way to exercise today?”

“You are working very hard.”

The nurses recognized Seo-jun and greeted him. Even though it was late, the nurses were sitting in the center of the aisle, as if they were on duty.

“Ah yes. It's a little frustrating to be alone in the hospital room.”

“No matter how frustrating it may be, working out all day is a bit...”

“Haha...”

Seo-joon smiled lightly and walked past them.

That's when I thought I was far away.

“Kim Seo-joon has a patient. How come you don't seem to be getting more and more cool?”

Suddenly, I heard a groaning sound from behind.

“Is it right? There is also a sense of calm somewhere attractive. Totally my style!”

“Actually, the other day I came in drenched in sweat… I pretended to be worried and touched my body a little. But wow… I’ve never seen you in such good shape.”

“really? If this Ji-bae had something like that, he should have reported it to me right away!”

A squeaking noise followed.

Seo-joon hurried his steps with a feeling of embarrassment.

“Why don’t you go and check your blood pressure now?”

“uh...? Is it really?”

As my body got better with daily assignments, it seemed that my hearing was getting brighter.

next day.

Seo-joon, who woke up early in the morning, prepared to leave the hospital room again.

“Bachelor, are you going to exercise again?”

But then the voice you hear. When I turned my head and looked, it was the grandmother who was the caregiver of the patient next to me.

“Ah yes.”

“Hi goo. I'm eager I'm eager I like being young.”

Seeing the grandmother's expression as if she were looking at her grandson, Seo-jun smiled slightly.

And when I turn around and leave the hospital room.

[Next news.]

Suddenly, the sound of the TV came to Seo-joon's ear.

It was early in the morning, but the breakfast in the hospital room was early, and unlike the single room, the TV in the six-person room was always on.

[This is the news that a 4-star monster Behemoth suddenly appeared in downtown Seoul around 5 am today. Reporter Jeong Tae-min will report the details.]

Seo-joon's gaze naturally turned to the TV at what he had heard.

On the screen I looked at, I could see the scenery of the city broken here and there.

It was a scene as if it had been hit by a bomb, but it was quite neat for a 4-star monster to appear.

Then, like a narration, a man's voice came out. [Today

at 5:32 AM, a 4-star monster Behemoth suddenly appears in the middle of downtown Seoul and is in great shock.]

It turned out to be.]

[The association announced that the Behemoth was in a state of sleep. The monster corpse transportation company was unaware of this fact and concluded that the Behemoth had awakened in the middle of the city.

] It didn't happen.]

[Amid the criticism of the hunter team and transporter that carried out the raid, attention was also focused on the awakened person who defeated the Behemoth.] [The

awakened person is a cadet at Gaon Hunter Academy, and Gaon Academy is an S-class hunter. It is known as the academy that has produced numerous ranker hunters, including Jeong Heon-yeong.]

[It is surprising that people are not yet professional hunters, but they are fighting 4-star monsters. Indeed, it is Gaon Academy. [ This is

reporter Jeong Tae-min.]

“I draw that the hunters saved people again. They are truly great people. Truly.”

As soon as the news ended, the grandmother who came over muttered as if she was proud.

The grandmother nodded several times before speaking to Seo-jun as if she had just remembered.

“Come to think of it, bachelor. Didn't the bachelor also say that he was an awakened person?”

“Ah yes. that's right.”

“Then the bachelor is also a hunter? Are you going to be on TV like that later?”

“Ah... that's...”

“Grandma. Do you think anyone is on TV?”

Those were the words of someone other than Seo-joon.

When I turned my head, there was a man in his mid-50s with a lanky look looking at Seo-joon.

“And how difficult it is to be a pro hunter these days.”

“Isn’t it possible for all awakened people to become hunters? Even when I was like that...”

“It was like that when I was a grandmother. But not these days. Becoming a professional hunter is a star in the sky. Picking stars.”

“Is that so, bachelor?”

Seojun gently nodded.

Then the man looked at Seo-joon as if he knew it and said.

“If you’re exercising with the thought of becoming a hunter, stop. Don't waste your young life on things that don't work.”

In an instant, something that made Seo-joon cry rose from his chest.

The man was just a word, but Seo-joon felt as if his past life had been denied.

“My life is on my own. Instead of worrying about the lives of others, you worry about your own life.”

“With all those words! If an adult gave you advice because you were worried, you should know how to listen. Anyway, things these days... tsk tsk.”

The man then shouted something, but Seo-jun tried to ignore it and went out of the hospital room.

The morning air is somehow colder.

A complex thought rushed into Seo-joon's head.

Realistically, Seo-joon can no longer attend Hunter Academy.

It's because it took too long to collect money from now on.

And the current reality is that you can't become a pro hunter if you don't go to the academy.

‘Someday I will...'

But Seo-joon had a transcendent academy.

Although he does not yet know the details of the transcendent academy, Seo-joon is directly experiencing and feeling its effects.

Seojun was convinced that becoming a professional hunter would not be a dream.

Is that why?

-20 km canter. [20km/20km] (Achieved!)

- 500 squats. [500/500] (Achieved!)

- 200 push-ups. [200/200] (Achieved!)

- 300 sit-ups. [300/300] (Achieved!)

-150 pull-ups.[150/150] (Achieved!)

“I did it...!!!”

For the first time today, Seo-joon was able to finish Chiron's daily assignment without consuming the entire day.
