Declaration Of Extra Strike Chapter 32
Chapter 32
Han Seo-hyun, who saw the president of the association’s expression harden in the confrontation between the two grandchildren, sighed and warned.
“What are you doing in front of your grandfather? Han Seo-no, sit down.”
“…….”
Han Seo-jin turned his head as if he didn’t want to talk anymore, and Han Seo-no also slumped into the chair with a loud noise.
There was a strange silence in the room where the four sat. It was the president of the association who broke the silence.
“Seo-jin ah.”
“Yes, grandfather.”
“Your medical service is almost over, so you should get ready to engrave it.”
“…….”
“I actually have some children who fit in with you, so I knew them separately. They are talented and have a good family. I heard there’s a kid you know. I’m sure you’ll like it.”
“Grandfather.”
“Shouldn’t there be an imprinted guide, if not immediately? The guiding potion can’t be delayed more in the wrong yard. Other families are already moving as soon as they hear the news.”
The fist on his knee was clenched.
There was nothing wrong with what the president of the association said. At the end of the mandatory service period, the affiliation will be changed to an elite unit.
At that time, the difficulty of the mission increased beyond what it is now, so an imprinted pair guide was essential.
‘If I had a guiding potion, I would have been fine on my own…….’
The only producer who could make the potion, Kang Eui-jin, died, so there was no other way.
The Guide who can control my runaway level needs to be at least A-level.
‘C-level would be far short.’
I didn’t know why I thought of Joo Ho-hyun now or why his low rating felt so unfortunate. There was nothing I could do anyway. It was a matter of course long ago.
Han Seo-jin nodded slowly with an unwilling head.
“……No need to worry.”
“Worry. I didn’t even worry from the beginning. Who are you? Hahaha!”
When the president of the association burst into a big smile satisfactorily, Han Seo-no, who sat in front of him, gritted his teeth and stared. Han Seo-jin, who did not blink, immediately looked at the president of the association and said,
“I have a favor to ask of you. Grandpa.”
The president of the association opened his eyes wide at the sound of ‘grandfather’, not ‘President of the Association’, and his expression relaxed. Then he nodded in a soft voice.
“It’s my grandchild’s request. I’ll have to do anything. Yes. What do you ask of me?”
“I want to shorten my service period.”
“Hum…?”
At the unexpected words, the president of the association, Han Seo-hyun, and Han Seo-no all looked absurd. Han Seo-jin continued without caring.
“Please reduce about half of it.”
“It’s….”
“Please. Grandpa.”
There was no way I could refuse the request of my most cherished grandchild. That’s also the sound of a precious grandfather from a hard guy’s mouth.
The secretary was rushed in at the invitation of the president of the association. When asked if he could shorten the mandatory service period, the secretary was embarrassed for a moment, and soon began to call and find out. Soon after, he finally found a way.
“Yes. It’s possible. However, in order to avoid any other noise, Seo-jin needs to improve his performance……. Your schedule will be busier than now, are you okay with that?”
“Seo-jin, what are you going to do?”
He was busy enough even now. His head was pounding at the thought of him becoming busier that he could only meet Joo Ho-hyun at night.
Of course I didn’t like it, but I couldn’t do anything. Han Seo-jin nodded with a strange face.
“Yes, then, please.”
After the secretary stepped down, Han Seo-jin also got up after checking the time.
“I’ll get up now, too.”
“Yeah. I’m sorry to hold you for a long time when you’re busy. Go ahead.”
“If you come, I’ll visit you again.”
Han Seo-jin, who bowed to the president of the association, passed Han Seo-no and opened the door and left.
“Yah! Yah, Han Seojin!”
A voice came through the closing elevator door. Soon the door opened again, and Han Seo-hyun threw herself in.
“You knew I was coming. If I didn’t call you, you’d just leave, right?”
Han Seo-hyun shed Han Seo-jin in the affirmation of silence.
“You son of a…. Who the hell are you?”
“What?”
“What do you mean, when asked to imprint, you looked at me with such a look of chewing poop, but why did you want to complete it early? Did you change your mind?”
“What’s wrong with you? You know I don’t want to engrave it.”
“What’s important is your thoughts. You have to do it anyway. In the meantime, I thought you had accepted reality.”
Han Seo-jin smirked at Han Seo-hyun’s words. Arriving on the first floor, he shook his head, moving his foot out of the open door.
“Not really. I want to take a break.”
“…only that? You’re going to move it up three months just because of that?”
Despite the absurd question, Han Seo-jin still nodded.
“I’m going abroad. Do you have a private jet?”
“You know…? Why all of a sudden. You want me to lend it to you? Where are you going?”
“I think it would be better to see the sea. No, do you like water? Then Venice…….”
Han Seo-hyun, who was listening to the topic that was slightly out of focus, waved her hand, doubting her ears.
“Wait, wait, wait. Are you talking about Guide? The C Grade? Are you going to go with him?”
Han Seo-jin exercised his right to remain silent. Han Seo-hyun shouted in astonishment, but Han Seo-jin went ahead without an answer.
“Hey!”
Whether or not, only Joo Ho-hyun, who was already excited to see the sea, remained in Han Seo-jin’s head.
“In three months…….”
***
“Of course I’ll run away!”
Joo Ho-hyun’s voice rang through the lab. Yeon Seung-yeon, who was surprised while organizing the ingredients that had just been delivered, looked up with a shudder, and soon nodded when he knew that was the answer to his question of what I intended to do in the future. Then I said it carefully with my heart.
“Well, with me……. I’ll get ready to go. How long do you expect it to be?”
Joo Ho-hyun, who was roughly estimating the main quest, answered casually.
“About 3 months?”
It was a perfect dream.
***
Something is being made.
► Add ingredients
►Manufacture
Two options came to mind. I chose without thinking.
“Manufacture.”
—The god of luck has turned his head.
—Are you sure you want to proceed?
“Ah, I said I’ll do it!”
As soon as I answered with annoyance, the status window disappeared, and the pot that was boiling in front of me burst with a loud noise. And a teasing state window came up in front of me.
I’ve created an unspeakably terrible thing!
—The reputation is reduced by ten.
“Argh! Damn it!”
“Ho, Ho-hyun nim…… Are you alright?”
Spicy smoke came out of the burnt pot. Yeon Seung-yeon, who hurriedly blocked his nose and approached me, tried to operate a ventilator and recover the spilled liquid. Either way, I clenched my fist, staring at the pot.
Failed, failed, failed again!!
To the shame of asking Yeon Seung-yeon to prepare ingredients proudly, he has failed to manufacture potions several times so far, exploding the pot. I’m sure, how could I have forgotten, but at the moment I had only low-level skills. Since the materials used in the castration pot are advanced, it was almost impossible to handle them with lower skills even if they were well controlled.
Every time he failed, his reputation continued to be diminished, and Joo Ho-hyun’s reputation, which had originally been double-digit, was now falling into negative territory. It was not the first time I saw a system window indicating failure. However, I was frustrated when I failed to make something that was not a tricky potion and was not a star.
“If you have a 30% chance of success, shouldn’t you succeed at least once in three times?”
Of course not. I didn’t mean to try until the percentage was as low as 30% as the system said, but I meant to give up because I couldn’t. But I was so annoyed that I thought it was a beginner. I even felt pessimistic because I couldn’t hurt my pride.
‘What if you don’t complete the quest? Then, for the rest of your life, you’ll only have these lower skills…….’
Just imagining it made me delirious with a poor family.
“…… Shit……Same as…….”
As he bowed his head and chewed the curse, a trembling hand was placed on his fist. When I turned around, Yeon Seung-yeon was fidgeting like a dog in need of something.
“Ho-hyun nim… Phew, I think it’s better to take a break and do it again……. At this rate, you’ll be exhausted.”
“No, let’s do it again. You still have ingredients left, right?”
As I looked around the roughly organized experimental table and headed toward the material, Yeon Seung-yeon, who closed his eyes tightly, opened his arms and blocked me in front of him.
“No way!”
“……What? Come out.”
“After you make it three times, it’s a rule to take 30 minutes off! But Ho-hyun has already done it eight times…….”
As I turned my eyes along with Yeon Seung-yeon, who pointed to one side, a safety campaign poster was posted on the wall.
Wash your hands and go to the lab. After three productions, take a 30-minute break. Ventilate thoroughly…….
It was like rules for safe research work. Yeon Seung-yeon, who pointed at him, also looked determined as if he could no longer step down.
‘Eight times was enough for Yeon Seung-yeon’s personality…….’
I got annoyed at the thought of being threatened with purified water again, so I ended up laying my head on the cot in the lab as Yeon Seung-yeon led me.
Flo here!
