“I really have a taste skill now…”
“Hmm…congratulations. The cook must be jealous.”
Shortly after waking up, Jung Si-woo sat up in the bed, checking the condition window, and Soo Ah-rin responded back at him blankly spitting words. She was yawning not long after she woke up. It was very cute.
“Anyway, I’ve got a skill, so I’m gonna have to test it.”
Jung Si-woo jumped up and opened the refrigerator. Two bottles per 10 hours, so dozens of bottles of potions were filling each sidelong with a moderate amount of fruit…
“I’ll make you breakfast.”
“Huh?”
At that moment, Soo Ah-rin came up from behind and took the fruit. When Jung Si-woo tilted his head and turned around, she replied with a slight blush.
“You didn’t eat well because you kept saying it was a dungeon. I’ll give you a special service just while you’re resting at the resting place.”
“I’d appreciate it if you did…?”
She looked so happy, what happened? Jung Si-woo tilted his head but decided to obey her will. He had to admit that she was a good cook.
“Are you awake, Hyeong-nim?”
Jung Si-woo and Soo Ah-rin stood up, and Yong Se-ha, who was confined to the Training Center, poked out his head. Looking at the man who came out wiping his sweaty forehead with a towel, they checked the time, and only about five hours had passed. Was it delayed to dream of a dragon, or did it take a long time for the body to regain its normal breathing? Maybe it was both.
“Have you been wielding your spear?”
“Yes, Hyeong-nim, I’m fine no matter how hard I run, so I’ve been a little intimidated.”
All objects in the training center had the option of not being destroyed. So, Yong Se-ha, who became arrogant, went wild with his power, but there was no noticeable change…
“Are you a fool?”
“If your punch with all your might doesn’t break a sandbag, wouldn’t you be upset?”
“Hmm.”
Without further ado, Jung Si-woo followed Yong Se-ha to the training camp. The training center had a considerable space that looked like another 30-square meter apartment would fit inside. Other than the gym equipment, such as rings and sandbags, it was full of exercise equipment commonly found in training centers, and it was, of course, unknown how they were powered.
“It’s annoying to be getting used to this reality.”
“Hyeong-nim, would you like to try it?”
“Hmm.”
Sandbags were one of the things that made him feel nostalgic. As a child, when he trained to control his power, sandbags were an important test tool to gauge his muscle control.
“And I’ve eaten a lot…”
It was a few years ago that he was able to control his power completely and no longer burst the sandbags. Since then, he hadn’t touched one. But now it’s ironic that you didn’t have to control his strength.
“Whoa…suu!”
Jung Si-woo clenched his fist and hit the sandbag. It was a light blow from the side, but the moment Yong Se-ha hit the sandbag, a terrible roar filled the air, and the sandbag soared up and hit the ceiling. At that moment, an absurd vibration spread throughout the training center. He barely managed to stay up on one leg after the kick.
“Hyeong-nim…”
“Oh, it’s really not working.”
“How powerful are you…?”
It was just absurd that he lost his balance due to the aftermath of a blow that didn’t even contain mana. This was no ordinary sandbag. In line with the level of underground player Jung Si-woo, the shock absorption was beyond human common sense. And yet this was it! He checked his status a while ago. Of course, it had grown more as his level went up, but his destructive power just now was never explained by that alone.
“The same hardware doesn’t mean every computer has the same performance. It’s software, software. Suppose you’ve been obsessed with dealing with your body for more than ten years. You’ll be like me.”
“Kkk, if I had a room of spirit and time!”
Jung Si-woo beat the sandbag, leaving Yong Se-ha alone, who was talking nonsense. He couldn’t practice boxing because the rebound was severe every time he punched, but he was lucky to find a target to punch with all his might without exploding anything. Body and mind, hardware and software…that was definitely enough before. But that was no longer enough to explain it since he had mana.
Everything about Jung Si-woo changed based on when he got mana. His body, which was strengthened by mana, was able to perform more excessive movements, and his reaction speed was ridiculously fast. It was regrettable that he had no time to study himself because he had been so busy fighting.
“For the time being, I’m going to focus on the harmony between the flesh and mana.”
“More than that?”
“Now you’re just content to strengthen your body with Mana.”
Most players were struggling because they failed to achieve the level that Jung Si-woo was satisfied with.
“That’s not enough. The dragon in the dream is more…I’ve brought them together. When the body moved, the mana moved, and when the mana moved, the body moved. No, I didn’t tell them apart at all.”
“Is that possible?”
“I don’t know yet.”
Jung Si-woo’s super strength fundamentally worked under the influence of mana. However, the dragon’s body was always perfect without having to go through a cumbersome process. It was possible because there were countless passive and active skills interacting.
“Yes.”
If the body was hardware, the mind was software. If passive skills were hardware, active skills were software. In the end, they all become one.
“You’re creating a theory now. Moreover, to experiment with it…”
“I know. I don’t have enough mana.”
He didn’t have enough time. Therefore, there was no choice but to do what Jung Si-woo could for now, even if it weren’t enough. The first was the skill of five senses, and the second was the daily life of combat racing. Making the five senses skills would make it possible for Jung Si-woo to lightly identify passive skills within the body and to sympathize with active skills. So far, it had been impossible to do that, but now it was possible.
“I don’t know what to do with taste, but I got it, so I just need to solve my sense of smell, hearing, and touch.”
“If you do, I’ll do it too! Skills of the five senses, combat charge…I don’t have it…but I’ll try with a simple physical activation of my active skills.”
“Yeah, I’m sure you’ll get better, too. Well, first of all…”
Jung Si-woo stopped his fist and reached out one hand to catch the sandbag that hit the ceiling violently and came back.
“Let’s eat.”
“Oh, you’re done.”
Soo Ah-rin poked her head into the training camp. She was surprisingly pretty when she tied her hair down so that it wouldn’t interfere with the cooking.
“It’s strange that the noise doesn’t come out of the room. Anyway, you two should eat.”
“…Hyeong-nim, I’ve somehow become very miserable right now.”
“No, why? It makes me feel so warm.”
He couldn’t say anything to Soo Ah-rin, but Soo Ah-rin in an apron was a true new bride. 96% of men who saw that wouldn’t be able to endure without falling in love. But he couldn’t believe that Yong Se-ha was one of the remaining 4%.
“I’d rather be pleased if I were a TV celebrity.”
“It’s better to be in front of you.”
“That’s…ha.”
Did Jung Si-woo not know that Soo Ah-rin’s eyes are only on him, or did he not care even if he knew it? Yong Se-ha, who didn’t want to be punished by Soo Ah-rin again after bringing up something meaningless, chose to be silent. Jung Si-woo was the only one who tilted his head.
“As I was preparing for the meal today, the ingredients had decreased a lot. I think I should go grocery shopping again.”
“Then we’ll get it done today.”
“Yes! …Hehehe.”
Well, as expected, the smile was unnecessarily refreshed. Jung Si-woo gave up exploring the reason and sat down at the table. He didn’t think she had much time, but the table was really rich. Soybean paste soup with lots of pork, potatoes, and tofu, grilled hairtail, stir-fried sweet potatoes, steamed eggs, tofu pancakes…there was no time to make kimchi, but it was too good a spread.
“You could become a chef.”
“Let’s see after you eat.”
Soo Ah-rin’s expression of triumph made him think he knew the result without tasting it…Jung Si-woo shrugged and took a spoonful of soup. The universe unfolded in his head.
“Ugh!?”
“Does it taste weird? But that can’t be. I taste-tested it earlier…”
“Oh, no, it’s not that…”
He had forgotten his taste buds! In fact, Jung Si-woo’s sense of taste wasn’t very delicate, but now that he dreamed of a dragon and opened it, he felt like he could guess what the ingredients were in the soybean paste soup at what rate.
“It’s good, don’t ask for details. I think I can describe in five pages how this bean paste soup tastes.”
“You could’ve complimented me from the beginning.”
Soo Ah-rin’s mood improved instantly. Yong Se-ha quickly emptied the bowl and stood up, unable to stand the sight of looking at Jung Si-woo with a happy smile.
“I’m going straight into training. Why don’t you two go grocery shopping.”
“He’s trying to get himself into trouble…”
“Yes, not all three of us have to go out. Do it.”
“Hmph, that’s true too.
Jung Si-woo was able to test his taste skills to the fullest with a table prepared by Soo Ah-rin. The tasting skill was one that wasn’t much use in practice, but it was also inevitable that it would have to be learned in connecting with the other senses…most of all, he thought that he could never ignore the tasting skill to get the smell skill. He was very serious about eating, which made Soo Ah-rin feel very satisfied as a result.
“Good.”
“Oppa, you know that, right?”
Soo Ah-rin looked at him when she was done eating. Jung Si-woo nodded nervously.
“I’m in charge of washing the dishes, right?”
“Good. You know.”
Half an hour later, after washing the dishes, Jung Si-woo and Soo Ah-rin went out to rest. When they arrived at the mart and finished shopping, his tattoo began to shine.
