Chapter 5
As Haneul returned home and felt warmth within his house, he froze.
“Good Job. You must have just gotten home.”
“M……..other?”
“Mother? You shameful! Son, just call me how you normally would. Why are you being like this all of the sudden.”
Haneul’s mind went blank as he saw his mother’s figure receding back into the kitchen. He forgot that he asked his mother to make him something delicious for dinner tonight.
“What are you doing not coming in?”
Haneul walked in.
He changed his clothes and sat there with a stunned expression. He could hear a tong tong sound coming from the cutting board, as well as the bubbling sound from his mother’s soup.
‘It’s mom’s sound.’
It was the sound his mother made before she passed away 9 years ago.
She still looked the same as she did back then, which made Haneul confused.
However, Haneul shook his head.
‘This is definitely different from the world that I used to live in, however mom…….will always be mom.’
“Come eat.”
As soon as Haneul walked into the dining room, he could see a myriad of different kinds of food. There was Soybean Paste Soup, Rolled Omelet, Stir-Fried Anchovies, etc.
“Thank…….you for the food.”
“You’re welcome, eat a lot.”
As Haneul was eating away, he suddenly started to choke up.
“What’s wrong?”
“Nothing, it just went down the wrong tube…..”
“Here, drink some water while you eat.”
“Okay….”
After Haneul quickly finished one bowl of rice, he started to take glimpses of his mom. She was infallibly Haneul’s mom.
‘My father passed away in this life huh.’
“Umm, mother.”
“I told you not to call me that.”
“M…….om.”
“Yes, what?”
“Do you by any chance remember how father passed away?”
His mother’s hands, which were washing dishes, abruptly stopped moving.
“Why are you suddenly bringing all of this up?”
“Do you remember the earthquake that happened not too long ago in Central South? I hit my head during an accident there and can’t seem to recall most of my memories.”
“What? Why are you telling me this now?”
Haneul’s mom walked up to him with a worried expression, and started to look over his head.
“Did you go to the hospital?”
“Yes, don’t worry. You won’t find any scars. I’m just a little confused. Please tell me, how did father pass away? I can’t seem to remember.”
The next day, Haneul headed towards his school.
Because he had to commute to school, Haneul had to leave an hour before it started.
He was now on the train, trying to recollect his thoughts from the conversation he had with his mom the night before.
‘It was the same.’
The day that his father passed away in World B, was the same as the day his mother passed away in World A. The reason was the same as well. Traffic accident. Haneul being a hero showed evidence to the difference between World A and World B, but the biggest for him was his mom and dad.
“I have no idea how things are being played out right now.”
Haneul got off the train, got on his bike, and starting climbing uphill. The strange thing was, he wasn’t feeling tired in the slightest way. This hill was sharp to the point where he would normally be gasping for air, or would have to get off and climb up while carrying the bike, but not today.
He felt free.
Finally, after getting to the top of the hill, Haneul was now in front of the school.
‘What’s this? Is my stamina amazing in World B?’
As much as a hero school is needed in order to raise a hero, one’s stamina must also be up to par.
“Today, in Comprehensive Response System, we will be taking a practical exam for the different techniques needed for the various TYPES of monsters.”
An obstinate looking, old professor.
When I used to major in computer science, there was that one teacher that everyone hated in their first year. With the alias of Psycho Doctor, he was an old professor with a head filled with grey hair. He had that alias because his voice was raspy, always made it his goal to give the lowest possible grade, and had the most evil laugh in the world.
At least that’s what he did in World A. In World B, it seems like he’s in charge of this eccentric class called Comprehensive Response System, and just as eccentric as the name is, the experiments and experience seems just as eccentric.
“KYAAAAKKKKKK!!!”
It was the sound of a giant monster that was caged in.
It was the same Type D Reptile that was going around destroying things in Central South not too long ago.
“As everyone already knows, the alias we give these monsters is Reptile because they’re similar to the lizard. The monster’s form could have a limitless amount of differences, but we only look at their size as well as their attack power. Let’s discuss the Hero Organization’s current classification for these monsters.”
The psycho doctor pointed towards the back where Haneul was sitting.
As soon as he did that, everyone looked back at him.
Everyone’s eyes were sparkling. Nobody was saying anything, but everyone already knew. The results from the school hospital spread out to all the students, because they loved gossiping about people awakening.
“That is……..a Type D Reptile. Any of those that are similar in height to a human, up to 2 meters, falls into that category.”
“Wonderful. That is correct. We will be taking a practical exam on the weaknesses and techniques needed to handle these Type D Reptiles. We’ll do this in order. Everyone gathered here today received excellent grades last semester, and also have the most stable and excellent magic in the school. I feel that this Type D would be easy to get rid of for everyone in here.”
Even if that’s the case, is it okay to use a real monster like this in class? Although that’s what Haneul was thinking, it seems to be a normal occurrence at the school.
Everyone got in line as if it wasn’t anything new, and continued to talk to each other on the techniques needed to handle the monster.
“Now, let’s start.”
These students were on a higher level than Haneul thought.
He figured that everyone here had the capabilities to be in the Murray’s Heroes list.
The problem was, Haneul didn’t know the weaknesses or features of the Type D Reptiles.
In the midst of the chained monster’s loud grunts, students were going up with different weapons and overpowering the monster with sharp movements.
Haneul was completely focused on watching the other students.
When it was finally his turn, everyone got quiet and watched him attentively.
‘This is very uncomfortable. Since when have I ever been in this type of situation…..’
“Now, hurry and try it.”
Haneul reluctantly picked up a sword and did the exact same thing the 3rd student before him did.
While the Psycho Doctor could visibly be seen getting disappointed, Haneul tried to go back to his seat after putting away the weapon.
“What the, there’s rumor going around saying he’s the Hero in Silver, but I guess he’s not? He doesn’t even know how to take care of a Type D Reptile.”
Haneul quickly spun his head.
Someone definitely said some nasty things just now, but it got quiet again as if nothing was ever said.
‘Oh ho, look at these guys?’
A fire was lit inside Haneul.
He turned back around.
“Professor, can I destroy that thing?”
“Why are you suddenly……”
“From my understanding, that monster is in the care of the Organization, correct? It shouldn’t be easy for a normal public institution to be able to get their hands on one.”
“Th, that’s right but……..”
At that moment, Haneul walked up to the Type D Reptile. The captured monster opened its mouth to show a bunch of its teeth missing. Not only that, they shot muscle relaxants into its system, so its movements were even slow.
If compared to the real Type D Reptile, it was incomparably weak.
There was a glint of light in Haneul’s eyes.
“Hold on, If you get that close to it, it’ll be dang………!”
Booomm!
Flesh exploded and scattered everywhere.
A huge hole could be seen in the torso of the monster as it fell to the floor to breathe its last breath.
It was finished in one blow.
Everyone turned pale with surprise.
No one was able to see what Haneul did, not even the professor.
‘Just as I thought.’
There was a difference in the amount of magic energy that could be released, but the way to release it wasn’t too different. Even without the armor on, Haneul was able to employ a certain amount of his powers.
Haneul turned his head. His face was brindled with blood.
“I’m sorry. I think these students wanted an extreme practical experience, Professor Sung Hwan Yoo.”
