After Returning, My Abilities are Infinite

Don’t Touch (2)

I felt dull pain on the hand that I reached out for a handshake.

It was as if it was struck by a weapon.

“Huh? Don’t you know who I am?”

But the pain was nothing compared to the shock that followed when I raised my head.

“Don’t touch my baby.”

Han Yeon-soo.

The legend of hunters, the Queen, was there.

I felt like my head was spinning.

I don’t understand what this is right now.

Jeong Si-woo, who emerged as the best rookie… is with Han Yeon-soo?

A cadet and a Queen did not fit.

Besides…

“Si-woo, don’t worry about him, let’s go.”

“I think you hit him too hard.”

“Ah – I’m too hungry.”

Han Yeon-soo’s eyes were staring at Jeong Si-woo like a woman in love.

The sight in front of me didn’t make sense.

She was a terrifying fighter for a moment, but now she’s sighing and sighing.

Jeong Si-woo looked embarrassed.

“Thank you very much for visiting. I’m sorry, but I’m really in a hurry… this crazy woman.”

I nodded.

“Here’s my contact information. If you can schedule a meeting after the crack attack is over… I’m sorry I came to a busy schedule.”

“Ah, no. Nothing to be sorry about.”

Unbelievable tone. He was as good as someone who had this conversation countless times.

I handed him my business card, which shows ‘Sabangsin, Kim Hyun-soo’.

Upon receiving it, Jeong Si-woo muttered to himself, saying, “Kim Hyun-soo…”

Then,

“Yes, okay. We can schedule another meeting later.”

He didn’t seem too impressed at the Sabangsin guild name.

Han Yeon-soo, who was known to be cold and arrogant, was babbling like a child while clinging to Jeong Si-woo.

I can’t help but laugh as I watched them walk away.

I traveled for two hours just to see this weird scene.

“Uh, brother?”

Suddenly, I heard a familiar voice from behind.

It was Kim Hyun-tae. One of the most troublesome, along with our youngest.

“What’s going on here? Did you see that kid who went out with a woman?”

“…”

“Did you see it? Academy students are banned from dating. I got this kid. Discipline is coming right away!”

My face turned white at his words.

“Oh no… don’t do it, please.”

The goosebumps all over my body took a long time to subside.

* * *

“Why are you doing such things?”

“Yeah?”

“I feel uncomfortable with you doing that.”

“Ha…”

Han Yeon-soo looked down at the business card of Kim Hyun-soo, whom she met with a sizzling head.

I thought about what happened.

Kim Young-hwan was always starving for talent.

However, I never expected he’d send Kim Hyun-soo.

Kim Young-hwan’s first son, a man who grew up straight, unlike his second and third sons.

His talent is extraordinary, and he is considered a first-class hunter.

I guess the guild leader thought it was urgent to get me.

It didn’t feel unpleasant. Of the three major guilds, I consider Sabangsin as the strongest one.

“What do you think about so much, Si-woo?”

Han Yeon-soo hit my shoulder.

When I stopped thinking and raised my head, I’m surprised we’re already in front of the hospital.

“I think of you… for various reasons,” I told her.

“Ah… I’m sorry, I won’t do that again next time.” She smiled.

“Next time we meet, wear a hat. Everyone knows your face. It’s not good for both of us.”

“Uh, there’s nothing wrong for them to see me talking to my lover. Celebrities and ordinary people can have secret relationships, too, just like…”

When Han Yeon-soo started talking silly, I ignored her and went inside the hospital.

“Oh, wait for me! Let’s go together.”

She came along laughing.

* * *

Seong Hyun-woo’s hospital room was 302.

Suddenly, Han Yeon-soo pulled a fruit basket out of her pocket.

…Right. When you go to a place like this, you are not going with your bare hands.

Interestingly, she remembered such a trivial thing.

I took a step forward to open the door on behalf of Han Yeon-soo.

“Well?”

I felt something strange.

“This is Seong Hyun-woo’s room, right?” I asked her.

“Yes.”

“It’s a single room, right?”

“Yeah, why are you asking that?”

“Wel… I can hear words from the inside… like there are many doctors and nurses.”

Han Yeon-soo looked confused. “I can’t hear anything…”

[Open it.]

At the Traveler’s advice, I stopped thinking and decided to act.

“What?”

The knob turns, but the door does not open.

In response to that strange phenomenon, I activated Excellent Insight and began to check it.

The knob seems to be surrounded by a blue halo behind the door.

Someone intentionally installed a sort of device inside this room.

It may be a kind of skill or an artifact.

“Si-woo? Why doesn’t it open? Did the child lock the door?”

“No, I think someone intentionally blocked it.”

“Shall we break it?”

“Wait a minute.”

It’s much better to dismantle this lock than to break it.

I changed Nightmare to a key and started working on the knob using mana.

[There’s a barrier. That’s why only you could hear them.]

“…”

[Users of Akashic Records are not affected by stuff like that. They can’t deceive your eyes and ears with that kind of poor quality.]

Click-!

“Done.”

In a few seconds, the mana barrier that has been placed dissolved.

I opened the door carefully, but without hesitation.

“Yes. His mana levels alone are not ordinary… Definitely an awakener. But there is a feeling of unstableness.”

“There are so many needle marks. I think he’s been taking some kind of drug… He looks a little insane. It would be nice to classify it as a risk awakener.”

“Every time you look at the scan, mana levels increase, right? It seems to be a form of power that amplifies whenever stress builds up.”

There were ten men talking around the bed.

They were taking pictures of Hyun-woo with his top off, checking the scars on his body… it was as if they were handling a mouse used in experiments.

“What are you crazy guys doing?!”

Han Yeon-soo’s face was distorted.

I immediately grabbed her shoulder before she could jump at them.

Even if Han Yeon-soo is a legendary hunter and had the power to match a guild, there was nothing good that would come out in turning these guys into enemies.

The men turned.

I know them better than anyone. They were a great power in my last life, but also a big obstacle.

South Korea Association, the world’s largest and most powerful group of awakened people.

“Well, how did you get in here?” One of the men approached us.

“That’s a question I’d like to ask,” I replied.

I looked at Seong Hyun-woo’s weak form and barely controlled the boiling anger within me.

There’s nothing good about turning these people into enemies.

I could die on the hands of the Association even before I face the Overlord.

“Why would people from the Association enter this room without permission and do this to a child I’m protecting? I’d like to hear some explanation.”

At my words, the man opened his mouth.

“Well… we did not enter without permission. We received a report from a nurse and went to this place.”

“A nurse?”

“Yes. He said he had seen the stand floating in the air. In addition, he said that he had torn down comforters and pillows little by little…”

“But I don’t think you should be doing this to him here. Soon, we’re going to take him to the Association for evaluation, so I hope you will stop now.”

“Ah, you don’t have to. We’ve already tested him ourselves.”

He reached out and showed me a little device he was holding.

The words’ Risk A’ appeared on it.

“Awakeners with Risk B+ or higher can be taken and tested by the Association. It is also stated in the Awakening Special Act that an ‘unstable’ awakener can be taken.”

“…”

“And… your face is a little familiar. Jeong Si-woo, right? You have been quite a topic these days… It will be quite a blow if it turns out that a promising rookie was hiding a Risk A secretly.”

The man sounded worried, but his threat was clear.

“If someone sees us now, it might be misunderstood that Cadet Jeong Si-woo took a young boy and experimented with him, right? What a shame. The cadet is evaluated as superior to analysts in theory.”

Really, I expected nothing less.

The Association was notorious for its methods, such as blackmail.

I wanted to blow the man’s head off, but it was too burdensome to have the Association behind your back.

Damn, I didn’t want to get involved with them in this life.

Suddenly.

Pung-!

At that moment, everything they had in their hands exploded.

Fragments of the machines, needles, glass fell to the floor.

The cameras that were taking pictures of Seong Hyun-woo disassembled one by one and soon disintegrated into powder.

“What’s happening?!”

The man who was talking to me looked shocked.

The boy’s voice was still weak, but it is much clearer than before.

“Stop.”

Thud-!

With that one word, ten men fell down.

It happened so quickly as if they were string puppets with the strings cut.

Han Yeon-soo’s mouth was open in shock.

I knew instinctively.

Seong Hyun-woo did it.

Even though his expression was calm, he was building up stress.

How could he endure it?

He collected his stress and only released it when he wanted.

An apple emerged from the fruit basket that Han Yeon-soo held. It floated into the little hand of the boy.

Crunch-!

He bit an apple as he looked at us with an indifferent face.

“They hurt me first. Even if you tell me not to hurt them, I will.”

He murmured with a slightly incoherent pronunciation.

Like a little child, just learning how to speak.

“I hate hospitals. Boring.”

It was a good thing that he is now expressing his thoughts.

It wasn’t good, however, to knock out the Association guys.

“Why, are you worried about them?” Hyun-woo suddenly spoke to me, reading my thoughts.

“…”

“Don’t worry; they won’t remember it when they wake up. I erased it all.”

The boy’s eyes were still cloudy. However, unlike before, there was a little light on them now.

“I want to go somewhere else. I don’t want to lie down every day, and I don’t want to eat in the hospital.”

“…”

“It’s been a long time; can’t I eat something delicious? Can’t I see what I want to see and do what I want to do? Do I have to stay here?”

“No. Get anything you want to eat and do whatever you want. I have a lot of money,” Han Yeon-soo answered him. She doesn’t take long to decide.

“Okay, let’s go.”

I don’t, either.

* * *

Seong Hyun-woo decided to stay with Han Yeon-soo.

Possibly because he read her memory, Seong Hyun-woo avoided Han Yeon-soo’s hands whenever she tried to put her hand on his head.

In the end, she gave up and left with Hyun-woo.

Then, I returned to the academy.

“Hey, you were with a girl earlier. I saw it all. I’ll get you punished by saying you’re dating.”

“Then I will be disciplined… and you will die.”

“Uh? What?”

“Do whatever you want.”

“Hey, hey! It’s true… I’m really going to tell on you!”

I returned to the room, ignoring Kim Hyun-tae, who keeps bothering me.

Tell on me, huh. I don’t know what the result will be.

However, I’m sure it’s going to be a mess.

I sighed and lay down on the bed.

Then, a message arrived suddenly.

-Yoo Ji-yeon: Siwoo.

-Yoo Ji-yeon: My magic is a little weird. Can you look at it?

-Jeong Si-woo: What do you mean?

Only

Looking at the message, I expected one thing.

Then, I immediately shook my head and laughed.

It was ridiculous.

It was too soon. Too soon…

-Yoo Ji-yeon: When I use magic… the magic is not coming out.

With that, I sat up immediately.

-Jeong Si-woo: Where are you right now?

One of Yoo Ji-yeon’s fundamental characteristics is about to blossom.
