#71. Awakening (1)

Under Lim Tae-hyun’s hypnosis, it’s actually unnecessary to snap your fingers.

It was activated by chance, and Im Tae-hyun himself knew that, but the real conditions are like this.

Imprint your existence on the other person.

However, since the judgment of this imprint is very generous, even thinking about ‘what is that bastard doing now?’ Is hypnotic.

In any case, it occupied most of the opponent’s head for a while.

However.

Nari Seo did not fall under this category.

Since her head is filled with the existence of ‘Lee Yoo-hyeon’ 24 hours a day, even if an impurity called Lim Tae-hyun intervenes, the number is insignificant.

The result.

“······What do you keep saying?”

Nari Seo was not hypnotized.

‘Nonsense.’

Lim Tae-hyeon looked blankly at the sky.

The sky is very clear, as if making fun of his plans all ruined.

I felt bad for nothing.

“The winner, Nari Seo!”

The referee announced the winner, and Nari Seo exited without regret.

Things that seem to be safety agents soon approach Lim Tae-hyun.

“Are you okay?”

It wasn’t okay.

No, more than that.

‘Should I be hypnotized?’

Because I was sure of success, I chewed up all contact.

If Lee Hye-seong had been watching this scene…

Aren’t you killing me?

‘·········································.

Although he failed, Lim Tae-hyeon’s abilities are worth using.

I won’t kill you.

“I think I am conscious.”

Lim Tae-hyeon, who gritted his teeth, raised his body slowly.

Blood dripped from his nose.

“f*ck…”

It’s not over yet.

If I had focused on the game, I might not have heard it.

Okay, let’s go to the waiting room under the pretext of saying it was a good match.

Then hypnotize me again.

······First of all, get some treatment.

About 10 minutes passed like that.

Lim Tae-hyeon found Nari Seo’s waiting room, fumbling with her nose, which had fortunately returned to normal.

I asked the staff for the location and they gave it to me.

Of course, they didn’t tell me, so I hypnotized them.

‘I’ll forgive you for breaking my nose. It’s mine now anyway.’

I arrived at the place the staff showed me to, cleared his throat a few times, and knocked on the door.

Smart.

“This is the guy from the match earlier.”

Nari Seo did not appear.

‘······It’s okay. I just need to open the door somehow.’

Knock Knock.

“Can I talk to you for a second?”

After that, she kept knocking on the door.

Result of 5 minutes of continuous attempts without giving up.

Shiiik.

The door is open.

“What?”

However, it wasn’t Nari Seo who came out.

“Oh, no…”

“What is it?”

It was Lee Yoo-hyeon.

***

I was in Nari Seo’s waiting room.

─Yuhyeon, I feel lonely.

I came to play after receiving this text message.

“I saw the game, it was great.”

They complimented us on this and that, and we were watching Jang Hara’s game together.

By the way.

Smart.

─This is the person from the match earlier.

Lim Tae-hyun came to visit us.

Nari Seo didn’t want to open it, so she pretended not to be there.

Knock Knock.

However, Lim Tae-hyun did not give up.

If you don’t answer, you’ll think it’s not there, so why do you keep trying?

Annoying.

“I’ll go out.”

“Are you okay?”

“It’s okay.”

From noble mtl dot com

From what I heard, it kept making strange noises for a short period of time.

Let’s see each other’s faces.

I opened the door.

“What?”

“Oh, no…”

“What is it?”

As you can see on the screen, Lim Tae-hyun was a person who was not different from what was expected.

“Ah, did I come to the wrong place?”

Just an ordinary person.

“Uh… Then I’m done? I’ll go.”

Maybe that’s why?

It was more of a question.

How did Taehyung Lim pass the preliminary round?

They say you shouldn’t judge people by their appearance, but it was strange.

It was unlikely that a B-class or higher hero would lose to a guy like this.

“Wait.”

So I caught on.

To find out properly.

[ Use the skill, ‘Observation’. ]

It was kind of a sense, but there was nothing wrong with being careful.

[ Observe information. ]

=

Name: Lim Tae-hyun

Age: 26

Alignment: Atrocities

Possessed Power: Hypnosis

Risk Level: S

One line evaluation – If you don’t care, you may lose someone important to you. Be careful.

=

“Why is that?”

Yes.

Was it like that?

Tendency to be atrocious, ability to hypnotize.

The degree of risk is also S.

“Ha·······.”

I was annoyed.

This guy is, of course, here.

Could this really be a coincidence?

Of course not.

“Tell me.”

“Yes?”

“Are you Hyeseong Lee?”

The foreshadowing of an urgent quest appeared not too long ago.

And this right now in front of my eyes.

Given the circumstances, Lee Hye-sung’s actions were certain.

“······Damn it!”

Lim Tae-hyun hit my hand as hard as he could.

It seemed like he intended to shake it off, but he didn’t.

“I told you to talk.”

“f*ck me!”

It wasn’t an answer, but it was an answer anyway.

Lee Hye-seong That’s right.

“Yoohyeon, what’s wrong?”

As the commotion lengthened, Nari Seo stuck her head out.

“Good!”

Lim Tae-hyun’s face turned bright.

And a hand reaching out to Nari Seo.

Probably trying to hypnosis.

I knew it, but I didn’t stop it.

The fact that I didn’t close the waiting room door immediately after checking the information in the first place was what led to this.

Damn!

Lim Tae-hyun snapped his fingers.

“Uh, huh…?”

Then came a panicked voice.

I thought so.

The defeat of the hypnotist means the failure of hypnosis.

She happened to visit again, so Nari Seo was not hypnotized for some reason.

In a word, immunity.

Well, even if it’s not that…

[ You have met the conditions for the skill, ‘robbing’. ]

It’s enough to steal it.

The condition of extortion is to see the opponent’s ability ‘with the naked eye’.

[ Use the skill, ‘robbing’. ]

[ The robbery is successful. ]

[ 1/3 ]

“Why… why not?”

“Sure, why not?”

I just checked, but Lim Tae-hyun’s ability only works against women.

Because of this, it is impossible to interrogate using hypnosis.

“The ability is really useless.”

I can’t help it.

“Listen carefully. I will ask you a question from now on.”

I have no choice but to try to tell you well.

“If you don’t answer correctly, I will break your fingers.”

“Hee, hee hee…”

Soon, a “Sound” Interrogation began.

After a while.

I could hear Just’s plan.

“······The executives are here?”

“Yes, yes!”

“All?”

“This time it’s true!”

Lim Tae-hyun has three fingers bizarrely bent.

Lim Tae-hyeon trembled and added an explanation.

“My, my mission was to brainwash your closest aides including Nari Seo…”

“·······.”

I vaguely guessed it, but I never thought it was real.

I’m a bit embarrassed.

······No.

The important thing now is not this.

This is a problem that has already been resolved.

The real problem is the news that all executives have gathered here.

“What is it…”

It’s burdensome enough just to come with gossip, but did everyone come together?

Even other executives are likely to be people I don’t know.

According to Lim Tae-hyeon, it seems that Lee Hye-seong has completely replaced the executives.

Whatever it was, it was clear that it was a troublesome situation.

“Well, now my ability is…”

“Will you give it to me?”

“Ugh…”

Lim Tae-hyeon is slumped in pity.

I didn’t feel sorry at all, but I started talking to him pretending to feel sorry for him.

“Do you want to get your ability back?”

“Yes? Yes of course!”

I’ll be honest.

No matter how much I think about it, there really is no answer this time.

The fact that all the executives came together was the worst situation I had been concerned about.

So, should we give up?

No.

I’m thinking of finding a way somehow.

This is an appeasement for that.

“Then let’s do one favor.”

I summoned good will and gave it to Lim Tae-hyun.

“You spy.”

Fingers restored in real time.

Immediately, Lim Tae-hyun nodded.

.

.

.

Time passed and passed, and the tournament became my turn before I knew it.

I wanted to give up, but after thinking about it, I didn’t.

If I suddenly give up, Lee Hye-seong will surely be suspicious.

Taking action is after Lim Tae-hyun gets something.

Ah, I didn’t have to worry about Lim Tae-hyun betraying me.

When I looked at the information again, the risk level was F, and there was even a sentence saying that I would not betray in one line of evaluation.

I don’t blindly believe that, but…

I will do well what I ordered. It seems that the hypnotic ability is desperate.

“You can go now.”

Following the staff’s guidance, I went up to the training ground.

There wasn’t much cheering.

At most, a few classmates, and.

“Yoohyeon, do your best!!”

“Hey, cheer up…!”

Shin Yeo-eun, Jang Ha-ra, and Seo Nari.

I personally asked you to stay in the stands.

I am relieved to see what I can see.

Anyway, since all three are watching, I have to work hard too.

“·······?”

By the way.

Something was strange.

A bewildered referee and time just passing by.

The problem was immediately identified.

The opponent did not appear.

“Wait a minute.”

No way?

[ Warning! ]

[ Warning! ]

[ The character, ‘Lee Hye-seong’, noticed your scheme. ]

[ Urgent quest has been moved forward. ]

“·······.”

I forgot.

That ‘best’ can never be ‘best’.

It was best to use Lim Tae-hyeon, but that didn’t seem to be the answer.

I looked up at the sky.

Something was flying over the stadium.

The object that fell under my feet was Lim Tae-hyeon’s head.

I let out a sigh.

“Anyway, in many ways, you’re a great bastard.”

I was well aware of Lee Hye-sung’s damn choice.

I told the referee.

“You are also an employee of the association, right? Evacuate civilians immediately. . . . Even the aspirants.”

This is an unfavorable fight.

Not in terms of power, but politically.

If even one civilian is killed in this incident, the association’s status will fall to the bottom.

On the other hand, the villain side has nothing to lose.

“And please gather the heroes.”

The fortunate thing is that the only opponent is Just.

[ An urgent quest is created. ]

I pulled out the synchronization potion.

Yes.

Let’s try it somewhere.

Who wins.
