before the storm

“Hello sir.”

“yes. good morning.”

a bit tired

Did you work too hard on the weekend?

Although he taught me directly after the declaration of control of laptops and ramen, as time passed, he returned to a little fluttering mode, but unlike before, the master was really enthusiastic.

I cut my sleep to a minimum and pushed aside my favorite food, saying that I could eat it when I wasn’t there anyway, and really filled the two weekends with training.

It’s good that the master is cooperative, but I’m worried because he seems to be expecting a lot.

He said he would hit five, but reality is reality.

Even if I set a standard, unfounded confidence is only arrogance.

Even if I failed the five times I told Master, I would have to hit at least two more times to stand on my side.

I finished my meal thinking that I should really do my best for the rest of the period.

After eating, I arrive at the teacher’s office and take a card to go to work.

This time, I wanted to ask for something else, but he said that even dog poop can’t be used for medicine, so he’s not there.

However, I knew right away the moment I entered the education information system to enter the performance evaluation scores of the children who had not finished yesterday.

[Notice regarding the selection of excellent teachers for the first semester.

In the case of outstanding general subject teachers selected by the principal, the criteria are the same as the previous year.

In the case of excellent teachers in practical subjects selected by the vice principal, the decision will be made by reflecting the results after the match with the vice principal.

* Differential advantage given according to rank.

How to apply in Dalian: Apply in person at the vice principal’s office.

Dalian application and implementation period: From today to the day before the vacation ceremony.

Current Dalian Applicant: Kang Shin-hyeok, 1st year swordsmanship instructor (scheduled for July 30.)]

As soon as I logged into the system, this banner came out right away.

I don’t know what the hell I’m going to do

Did you think I would suddenly cancel Dalian?

When I first accepted the offer, he even said that it was the best of all boys, but it is absurd.

“I don’t think I can see anything because I won over Mr. Jeong last time. What the hell do you believe in and act like that?”

“You can see the size just by looking at it. A half-punch who didn’t even go to the Hunter School covets the title of excellent teacher without knowing the subject.”

“You say you have an advantage, but don’t you know?”

“Ah, what kind of person is the vice principal… . Would you win if you closed your eyes and fought one-handed?”

I expected it after seeing the banner, but I’m very excited about it.

I don’t think it’s like they’re talking in a low voice, but they don’t deliberately ask you to listen, but since I became a master, my body senses have improved, so I can hear them even if I don’t want to hear them.

I suppressed my irritation and headed straight to the vice principal’s office.

I knocked almost to the level of knocking and entered, and the Vice-principal greeted me with a smile.

“Oh, Mr. Kang, good morning. What are you doing in the morning?”

“What is a banner in an educational information system?”

“Is that why you came? I couldn’t help it. Can’t we just give Mr. Kang the chance to become an excellent teacher?”

“Yes?”

“There is a high possibility that other practical teachers will complain about preferential treatment. Opportunities should be given to everyone equally. Other than you, other teachers won’t apply anyway.”

At first glance, it sounds like a very plausible answer, but honestly, I think it’s an excuse.

If that was really the purpose, there wouldn’t have been a need to post the current Dalian applicants on the notice.

I guess it’s because you don’t trust me… It’s ridiculous.

I hated the vice-principal’s facial expression asking, “What’s the problem?”

If I knew this was going to happen, I would add the condition that at the beginning of the appointment, I would quietly call in only two or three members and do it without others knowing… .

done.

Even if you regret it, you won’t be able to turn back time… Nothing changes.

If the sympathy comes out in this way, there will be more coming.

If so, five is not enough.

At least ten… No, I’ll definitely give her a kick in the ass.

* * *

“It’s not even past this angle yet, are you tired already?”

The master provokes him, but he is out of breath and has no energy to answer.

I blocked the tree branch coming towards the bottom with a knife, but the fist that came into the abdomen couldn’t do that.

puck.

“Tsk tsk, they said it was a sparring the day after tomorrow. Can you even hit me like this?”

sick.

There is almost no pain, probably because the master relaxed at the end.

But the fact that I couldn’t attack properly this time is too painful.

“Where’s the sudden use of fists?”

“Should I tell you that I will use my fists kindly during sparring? And the guy who sparred with you used to use his fists?”

“No, that is, but… Sigh. Now that I know it, Master, it’s true that you’re doing it at the level of transcendence… Ouch!”

It’s honeymoon again

“Are you saying that your guy is at least super-climaxed? If I had been sincere, would you have been able to stop it?”

Prior to the sparring with the vice principal, not only training but also intense sparring were conducted every weekend.

No matter how much I think about it, it seems that the master’s standard is a little higher, but there is nothing to say since he can’t avoid even a sweet night.

“But didn’t you last quite a while this time?”

“So you’re just going to hold out during the real sparring?”

“Okay, so let’s take a little break and try again.”

“Tsk tsk, I don’t think doing more will make a difference. How about just giving up?”

I don’t mean it, it seems like he’s doing it to stimulate me to improve my skills, but I hate the sarcastic master.

It reminds me of the saying about whipping a running horse.

But you can’t run indefinitely just because you keep hitting the whip.

I should give him some carrots and appease him.

There is a saying that praise makes even a whale dance.

I think I’ll reduce the amount of ramen when I come next week.

“Based on the training results so far, the chances of you winning are less than 10%.”

Let’s just say it looks a little better.

Debt on a burning house… No, it’s pouring oil.

“Last week you succeeded in sword fighting, but isn’t that too much? Why does Master seem to want me to lose?”

“What will you do if you succeed? It took a long time, so it’s a gag that can’t even be used in practice.”

Even if it looks like a gag, I have an idea… too much.

In the first place, I didn’t just go all-in on swordsmanship, I really worked hard to achieve this… .

“You are swearing very badly.”

“It’s a joke. Say no because your skills aren’t up to that level. Would I deliberately lower it? At your age, defeat is an experience, so come back after being humiliated.”

Seeing the master grinning, I was annoyed and wanted to refute something, but what to say… . Oh right.

“There is one thing I forgot to tell you. If I lose in Dalian, I won’t be able to come for three weeks.”

As soon as I finished my words, the master who giggled and laughed frightenedly froze.

New teacher training is held at a training center in Daejeon for three weeks.

Last time, I heard about Seo-ra Choi talking about training for new teachers. At the training center, it’s free time after the training period, so going out is more free than going to school.

However, he said that training is concentrated mainly in the morning, so staying out overnight is not allowed.

“what? No, why are you saying such an important thing now, you bastard!”

“I thought it wouldn’t matter if I won anyway. So I forgot.”

“all… Are you coming next week? When I go down tomorrow, I’ll make a list of things to buy next week.”

“no. If I lose in Dalian, I won’t be able to come back from next week.”

It’s not a lie.

The vacation ceremony is on Tuesday, and new teacher training starts on Friday.

“No, you bastard! But this time it’s ramen, and why are the snacks like usual… .”

“Didn’t I tell you that you were doing it?”

It’s a shame, you bastard.

“… Wake up.”

“You said it wouldn’t make any sense to do more? I haven’t even recovered yet. Since I kept moving, I’m hungry, so I need to boil some ramen.”

Master eats so well that he usually buys plenty of groceries.

Of course, I won’t be able to last 3 weeks, but I will deliberately spend more.

In a beggarly environment full of people who dislike the student, it seems like three weeks of golden vacation are lost, but if the master is comfortable, it can’t be used.

I want to eat two bowls of ramen.

Eat some sweets for dessert.

Why don’t you chew on tree roots for three weeks?

I get up from my seat and try to enter the cave where the ramen is, but the master catches me.

“Why are you like this? You’re not saying that because it’s a waste, are you?”

“Kkeu, let me tell you a herbivore.”

It’s ridiculous to say it with a pained sound.

“The day after tomorrow is Dalian right now, are you coming now?”

“It’s not that difficult, so you’ll learn quickly.”

“Is there any chance of learning one herbivore? As Master said, defeat is an experience, so you have to accept it.”

“This bastard, for real!”

“Really, I want to eat ramen. I’m going to eat two. Master will eat too, right? How many will you have?”

“No, it hasn’t been long since we had dinner… . Guy, if you learn it perfectly, it’s at least 30%.”

I heard that it was less than 10% a while ago, but 30% at once?

Ha, this man will not work.

With that kind of mental state, he said he lost before it even started, so he set the mood and put the wind in. Did he really want me to lose?

“If there was such a thing, you should have told me earlier.”

“Because it’s not my martial arts.”

“Yes? What do you mean?”

“I met a lot of people while cruising around Gangho when I was younger, but there are only two that I can call close friends. It is a herbivore used by one of them.”

“Your friend martial arts? If warriors are friends, do they share martial arts?”

Usually in martial arts novels, the setting is that one’s martial arts are never told to others unless they are disciples, but it’s strange.

“Nonsense. After competing several times, I came to know about it naturally. Originally, stealing other people’s martial arts is a great sin and, of course, teaching them is forbidden. But now it doesn’t matter that you’re the only one who uses martial arts.”

“Oh, so was that friend as strong as your master?”

“He wasn’t as good as me, but he was a good guy. At the time, he was at his peak, but he was an herbivore that embarrassed me when he was one step ahead.”

“When you talked about strong players before, you said you had never been defeated, so you must have lost?”

Anyway, the moment my master thought it was a lie when he opened his mouth, he thought he was going to hit the honey chestnut again, so he quickly rolled his body to avoid it.

“Seeing that he was going to hit me without saying a word, am I right… Ouch!”

I couldn’t avoid it this time.

“Who loses! When did I say I lost? You said you were embarrassed.”

Strong denial was said to be positive, but when I saw them heat up, it seemed like they were really defeated.

“Am yea, um yea. Master is King Wangjjang. But, does the win rate go up by 20% with only embarrassing herbivores?”

Originally, it doesn’t take that long to learn herbivorous food, but if Master says it’s easy and you can learn it perfectly in two days, it won’t be that great.

“Even though it is lacking compared to now, my experience was never, ever, small even in those days. It was an unconventional herbivore that even I had never seen before. Since you’re the only one who learned martial arts in the outside world, wouldn’t 30 percent be enough?”

He talks a lot more than usual and at first I thought he was selling medicine to make me not eat ramen, but after hearing it, it seems to make sense.

“All right. You have to go down anyway, so let’s learn.”

* * *

After lunch, we arrived at the swordsmanship training ground again.

Even with an umbrella, it was very windy and wet.

Since yesterday, it rained all night because it was affected by a typhoon, but today it is pouring all day from the morning.

Time flies.

Tomorrow is finally the Hunter school vacation.

So, today is the day of the long-awaited rapport and sparring.

Dalian starts at 7pm.

From one month when I accepted the pairing proposal from the vice principal to yesterday when I trained with Master.

I did my best to the point that I never slept more than four hours a day.

The sound of the wind and the dreary rain beat outside the window of the office at the swordsmanship training ground.

before the storm

In the meantime, I didn’t say anything to the teachers who laughed at me, even at school, on the SNS community ‘Together Time’, and to the teachers who are still laughing at me.

The results will tell you whether the people who laughed at me were lame or I was lame.
