Chapter 61: New Effect (1) (1)
.
Bonus chapter thanks to @ Someone subscribing to Legendary Tier on Buymeacoffee.
Busan, a lodging in Nampo-dong.
Inside a spacious room.
Kim Chae-eun was dripping with sweat as she manipulated her magic.
Jeong Seon-young watched her grueling training with sharp eyes.
Already on the third day.
It had been about that much time since Jeong Seon-young had been exclusively coaching Kim Chae-eun’s training, but there were still no significant results.
The growth of a magician was slow and abstract, just as much as the other mage classes.
Jeong Seon-young, who had been quietly observing, opened her mouth.
“More precision. Don’t use your magic casually, thinking you just need to freeze things. Just because ice magic is easier to control than other magic doesn’t mean controlling its intensity is easy. Whether you use it only enough to suppress your opponent, or to deliver a powerful blow. Those settings are for you, Chae-eun, to decide.”
“Yes...!!”
Even in her highly concentrated state, Kim Chae-eun didn’t miss Jeong Seon-young’s words and responded.
Jeong Seon-young secretly regarded her with admiration.
‘She certainly has talent.’
From Jeong Seon-young’s perspective, Kim Chae-eun was a talented Holder.The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via N0v3l-B1n.
Taking her in as a temporary disciple and spending three days in Busan.
Although visible results were not apparent from an outsider’s perspective, there were subtle changes that were undoubtedly evident to Jeong Seon-young, an A-grade Holder.
Compared to other C-grade Holders, her magic power was higher, and her control over ice magic was exceptional for an ice mage.
She also quickly absorbed the lessons taught by Jeong Seon-young and sometimes attempted to apply them autonomously.
At first, when Jeong Seon-young started teaching her, it had seemed fun without much thought, but upon closer inspection, Kim Chae-eun was a disciple who lacked nothing.
‘It’s intriguing since her main rune is normal.’
While [Freezing] was a relatively rare rune among magic runes, it was still categorized as ‘normal’ in terms of its grade.
For Kim Chae-eun, a Holder with considerable talent, to have a normal rune as her main rune was quite unusual.
Even Jeong Seon-young’s [Frozen Battlefield] was considered epic.
However, it wasn’t a significant issue.
While awakening runes were the most crucial, there were many cases of obtaining runes during training or growth, and sometimes they could be acquired during dungeon exploration if luck was on their side.
In fact, handling normal runes as the main focus wasn’t a big problem.
What was more important was that she showed remarkable talent.
“Don’t be too impatient. Your current abilities are already superior to most of your peers.”
“But... I still want to reach B-grade quickly.”
“Tsk. Is that because of that fellow, the Academy’s top student, Kang Juyeon? Kang Woo-hyun’s daughter?”
“...Yes.”
Despite being classmates, she had already reached B-grade, a student Holder.
Kang Juyeon.
Kim Chae-eun was working tirelessly to catch up to her, driven by the desire to surpass her.
And that...
It was also one of the reasons why Jeong Seon-young, who had a free-spirited nature, had taken on a disciple for the first time.
A day before the opening of the auction house in Daegu.
Kim Chae-eun had visited, saying ‘I wanted to become a Holder who could assist Jae-hyun’.
Her earnestness was so touching that Jeong Seon-young had granted her request to become her disciple.
Jeong Seon-young’s face was full of playful expression as she asked again.
“So? Is Jae-hyun currently interning at the Judgement of Fire?”
“Yes.”
“Oh my. What if he’s snatched away by Kang Woo-hyun’s daughter? Like a sneaky cat.”
“...That won’t happen. No, no! It’s not about snatching or being snatched in the first place...”
“Hehe. My disciple is cute.”
Although Jeong Seon-young had expended quite a bit of energy watching over Kim Chae-eun for a long time...
For some reason, she didn’t feel tired at all.
The fresh love stories of twenty-year-old student Holders. She, who was worn out by her life as a Holder, found a refreshing source of energy that allowed her to endure the day.
