21. A look at your abilities

Even Class D gives you a private room.

Then, looking around, I was finer than I thought.

The bed was quite soft, and everything was there.

‘It’s a room that seems to be in a house where even commoners live a little better.’

In fact, it is natural.

No matter how low-ranking a room is, it is a place with the name of the best academy in the empire.

Coming here is not a family honor, but in Korea, it is a place that is at the level of Seoul National University.

It is said that it is the lowest class, but it is a relative evaluation.

Even so, it would be difficult for nobles to accept.

[ So, who is born into a good family and comes to Class D? ]

What Anise said was exactly Helios’ position.

This is not a place to come to learn theories or education at leisure.

I came here to improve my skills as much as possible for the past three years.

If you look at the cadets, they are all combat personnel.

It was a structure that had no choice but to do that from the entrance exam in the first place.

It’s like a training center for war weapons wearing the mask of an academy.

For the aristocrats and the rich, who can be said to be the mainstream of society, strength was a virtue.

If you are born into an aristocrat and live an aristocratic life, but living close to a commoner is embarrassing, then become stronger.

Yooseong lay on the bed and thought.

‘It’s about time to move.’

Now that it is night, it is time to go to work that we have been planning.

Before that, let’s check it out.

‘It’s been a week since I last did that.’

Yooseong had something to do every week.

It is a reflection on the suspension of time.

It is essential to think about your abilities often and clearly.

All things change.

There is no guarantee that abilities will remain fixed forever.

Doesn’t the world’s most famous time stopping ability, ‘The World’, change the amount of time it can stop depending on your fighting spirit?

In order to prevent failure by not checking, you should periodically check for changes, even if it is cumbersome.

‘The first triggering condition.’

Yoosung found out that the only triggering condition for time stop is for the sword to come out of the scabbard by more than 3cm.

Serung-

‘Unchanged.’

Yoosung inserted his sword and turned back time.

Then I pulled it out again and then timed it.

‘Duration 10 seconds… slightly longer than No change.’

Next thing to check is the reuse delay.

About 3.1 Seconds when all 10 seconds were used.

About 1.2 Seconds when using only 5 seconds.

Almost non-existent when used for only 1 second.

‘Unchanged.’

Next was the time stop cancellation condition.

Yooseong found out in three ways.

Use the entire duration.

Fully insert the sword into the scabbard.

Think strongly about canceling the time stop.

‘This is also unchanged.’

Now that you have checked this far, it is time to pay attention to the time stop itself.

Yooseong clicked his thumb again and stopped time.

Then everything freezes and hardens as if the game was paused.

Yoosung swept the pen and notebook with his left hand on the small desk attached to the bed.

He could clearly feel the pen and notebook rubbing against each other, but his hand just brushed past and couldn’t move the object.

However, if we release the time stop here.

Flutter! Took….

It is blown away by the impact received during time stop.

In such a state where time is stopped, no changes can be made to the surrounding objects.

I couldn’t get out of the place if the door was closed.

However, the shock caused by the interference remains intact and enters at once when the stop is released, but the problem here is that the actual attack power is zero.

‘It’s not that I can’t kill if I want to.’

Yooseong turned back time and picked up his ballpoint pen.

Then stop time again.

The ballpoint pen, which had been hardened to a gray color until just now, was able to move freely just by the meteor holding it.

When time is stopped, the areas of ‘self’, ‘what is being worn’, and ‘what is being held’ in the unconscious are immune to the stop.

First of all, that’s what Yooseong is guessing.

This was a fairly difficult area no matter how much I tried.

But what seems certain is that while time is stopped, you are getting older than everyone else.

Also, it seems that the detailed laws of physics, such as the fact that if time is stopped, the air hardens, the light stops, and the rotation is broken, causing the planet to split apart, are being ignored.

I wondered why this was happening, but there were no time stop experts around me, so it wasn’t possible to ask, so I had to guess on my own.

‘Next is the sword…… It’s the side, but there’s no way to test this right now.’

Originally, it was supposed to catch a bad bully, but I can’t do that because it’s inside the academy.

Still, I decided to point it out again.

Because I have to make it a habit to always consider at least this.

Chuck.

Yoosung held the sword he was now completely used to in both hands.

Although it is similar in shape to a katana, this sword, which is not a katana, can now be called the identity of a meteor.

It’s a sword that stops time when pulled out.

I really stopped like breathing, but there are still times when it feels strange.

It would have been nice if I could just stop time, but there was a really absurd penalty.

Reduces all damage inflicted by the player to close to 0.

It’s the same even if you pick up a different sword or hit it with a fist instead of a sword.

Does strong power come with a price?

It was also the factor that had the biggest influence on the concept of Yooseong being an immortal swordsman.

Jjiik!

Yooseong tore up a page of his notebook, tossed it into the air, and drew his sword.

And shhh!

After cutting the paper, I turned back time.

The paper that was split in two at once falls fluttering.

From the start, it’s such a good sword when targeting a simple object, but when targeting a person, it won’t take any damage and won’t cut a single piece of clothing.

And the reason for that is probably because of the curse that exists in the game.

If there is anything comforting, it is that the pain and shock itself remain.

That’s why even if you can’t kill it, you can take it down.

‘When I become stronger, my attacks become equally strong. But it can’t do damage to living things.’

Originally, I wasn’t sure, but seeing that this trait was maintained even in the goblins in the vision, I felt confident.

‘No matter how you think about it, it can only be because of the curse of reversal. It doesn’t apply to objects, and the final damage is reversed.’

Let’s take a closer look at the characteristics of the curse of reversal.

First.

The curse is only applied to targets classified as ‘living creatures’ in the game system.

Objects, that is, normal objects and monsters that are not classified as living things, cannot be activated.

In Wizardry Caliber, monsters are classified into several tags.

Humans are humans, monsters are monsters, artificial bodies are artificial bodies, and so on.

The funny thing here is that if a guy was originally classified as a creature, the one created as an illusion is also classified with the same tag.

Apparently, that’s why I couldn’t defeat the goblin in the illusion.

Second.

All final damage inflicted by the user is reversed and the damage goes into a negative number.

The final damage is the one that comes after all the formulas, so it was the same that no matter how much the attack power was raised, there was no actual damage.

However, you have to raise the attack power to properly insert even the stiff CC.

Also, negative numbers do not mean healing.

Conversely, considering these characteristics, it was that monsters that were not classified as ‘living creatures’ could be defeated with time stop.

For example, living swords and selfless golems.

If I had to lower my experience later, I thought I could pick a hunting ground where those guys appeared and raise my specs.

‘And…… Wouldn’t the method of killing without touching be of much use?’

Just because it was cursed didn’t mean it couldn’t deal damage at all.

In games that cannot use natural objects, it is true that there is no answer at all.

However, there is a way to somehow avoid the curse here, where a lot of environmental elements have been added as a reality.

In any case, the criterion is the damage inflicted by the user.

Surprised, I fell alone, but accidentally fell into a lava pool and drowned to death is just a natural death.

What if you accidentally stepped on something strange and slipped, and there was a black blade stuck in it by chance?

The fact that the ceiling suddenly collapsed and the debris rushed in did not mean that the user was directly attacking.

These have been tested on wild animals.

At first, I thought that I might be able to get through it somehow, but in the end I realized that it wouldn’t be of much use.

This is the world of superhumans.

Mana users are protected from hair to claws by a mana shield that always flows over their bodies.

Wizards have poor defense at all times, but they have many means to evade, and when the shield is deployed, it is much harder than the knight’s side.

Under such circumstances, the damage caused by using the natural environment is at a level where even a slightly stronger opponent does not work at all.

After all, it is for massacre of civilians.

There were many reasons why Yoosung decided on the non-killing concept.

‘Of course I can’t do shock yarn experiments.’

In the case of a case of shock due to pain, he killed people for fun, kidnapped women and sold them to brothels, etc. In particular, he disguised a poor bully, kidnapped him, locked him up, and harassed him for over 10 hours.

Even if it really hurts like crazy, I would faint first before dying.

In the stunned state, there was no reaction even when cut.

I think it’s right to see that it’s impossible.

I haven’t been able to test the durability of the sword because I’m nervous, but looking at the fact that not a single tooth has gone out yet and the black blade is maintained, there seems to be no problem yet.

Sooner or later, I’ll get a new sword for attack.

There was a reason why Yoosung hadn’t gotten a sword yet.

‘I also need a stabbing test subject…… I’ll have to catch me later.’

If you pierce the opponent’s body with a sword and turn back time, it will remain stuck, but if you pull out the sword here, it will come out without a drop of blood.

As if he were a ghost sword.

A cut without an actual wound also doesn’t make sense, but I don’t use this because it makes no sense more violently.

There was a reason Yooseong didn’t raise the stab level.

If the opponent has a shield, stabbing with a small impact area will not work well, and it will take too much time to stab and retrieve.

It is too difficult for a beginner in swordsmanship to quickly stab and withdraw a longsword.

So Yooseong chose to cut.

Actually, the biggest reason is that cutting is cooler.

I’m sure I’ll put the stabbing up someday.

‘Then let’s finish this one.’

This time, like the last time, I couldn’t find anything different.

After completing his examination, Yooseong got up, put on his sunglasses again, and left the dormitory.

“Stop. Please state your class and name.”

Class A training room.

A guard guarding the meteor stopped it.

“It is a Class D meteor.”

“D class? What is Class D doing tonight?”

As soon as it was revealed that it was Class D, the security guard’s attitude became somewhat awkward.

“I wanted to take a tour of the Class A training room.”

It seems that a low class cannot even get close to a high class dormitory or training room, but it is not.

If you want to take a tour, you can do so.

However, if class D, the untouchables of Helios, goes on a field trip as a higher class, he just doesn’t know what kind of situation he will face, so he doesn’t hesitate to step out.

This kind of field trip culture was mainly used to motivate the higher class to see the poor environment of the lower class or to come to tease them.

“Do you think you can visit peacefully if you come at night? It certainly seems like a sharp analysis, but that seems to have underestimated Class A too much.”

“Yes?”

“I don’t know what class D is like, but in class A there are cadets who are concentrating on training even at this time. Will you still come in?”

“Well, since we’ve come this far, it would be nice if we could go in.”

“Okay. If so, I will send it to you. But no matter what happens inside, I can’t take responsibility.”

A guard who gives a warning and then gets out of the way.

Regardless of the class, there is a tendency to regard Class D as arrogant when they enter their facility.

Freshmen must have learned from the seniors that Helios has such a beautiful culture.

However, Yooseong became a celebrity thanks to his victory over Labian, so it was safe to say that he had nothing to argue with.

The security guards don’t seem to know, but anyway, you don’t have to notice others and go in confidently.

Yooseong moved into the Class A training room.

From now on, I’m going to go meet the sophomore playable character.

A woman who is expected to be able to reap the rewards of a relationship very easily if she only knows the tricks.
