Not All Heroes From Earth Are Bad-Chapter 167

“You want me to teach you magic?”

“Yes.”

Park Hyun-a’s brows furrowed.

“Why magic all of a sudden?”

“After seeing you fight, older sister, it seems magic is stronger than fighting techniques…”

“This isn’t about magic being strong, it’s about ME being strong, you fool. Do you think you’ll become like this just by learning magic now?”

“Well, that’s not what I meant…”

“Forget it, just stick to fighting techniques. It suits you better.”

Park Hyun-a said coldly.

Choi Hyun-seok didn’t give up and tried to appeal further.

“I may look like a physical fighter, but believe it or not, I’m confident in my magic control. It might take time, but if I learn, surely…”

Park Hyun-a cut off Choi Hyun-seok’s words.

“Enough, enough. I know you’re talented.”

“…”

“Fine. You could probably learn it. With a little effort, you could use intermediate hero magic. No, like you said, you’re naturally gifted. You might even be able to use advanced hero magic quickly.”

“Then why are you saying I can’t?”

“Because the efficiency isn’t there, the efficiency.”

“Efficiency?”

When Choi Hyun-seok showed a confused expression, Park Hyun-a irritably scratched her head.

“Ah, explaining all this would take too long…”

Park Hyun-a looked up at the sky.

The sun was already setting.

“I’m tired today, so let’s rest. I’ll explain properly tomorrow.”

“Yes… I understand.”

Choi Hyun-seok had no choice but to let Park Hyun-a go, despite his disappointment.

***

The next day.

As promised, Park Hyun-a began the magic education.

The students were Choi Hyun-seok and Abelson.

They both sat on the ground, looking at Park Hyun-a with eager eyes.

“Do you know the difference between fighting techniques and magic?”

Choi Hyun-seok raised his hand enthusiastically.

“Isn’t it ranged versus close combat?”

“If everything ranged is magic, then what about fighting techniques that shoot magic? Are those all magic?”

“Hmm…”

Choi Hyun-seok closed his mouth.

Come to think of it, even Reidrun-style Fighting Techniques allowed for ranged attacks.

“Abelson. Do you know?”

“It’s the difference in where the magic is processed.”

“Correct.”

Park Hyun-a smiled with satisfaction.

“Whether it’s fighting techniques or magic, the fundamentals are the same. Both use magic, demonic energy, holy power, and the like. So where does the difference come from? It’s in where the magic is processed.”

Park Hyun-a released magic and let it float in the air.

Water, flame, light, darkness.

The magic changed constantly.

▫Level: 852

·Strength: 267

·Agility: 268

·Stamina: 273

·Magic: 310

·Demonic Energy: 307

·Charisma: 102

·Fighting Spirit: 76

“I’m level 852 now.”

“Oh, much faster than expected. You might really hit level 1,000 within half a year?”

“These days my growth rate isn’t very satisfying, so I’m not sure.”

“Then you need to work even harder, kid.”

“Yes…”

Choi Hyun-seok’s lips protrude in a pout.

‘How much harder can I work!’

Choi Hyun-seok has been continuing battles without proper sleep.

Thanks to pushing himself to the limit every day, even his Fighting Spirit stat was rising steadily.

“Well, seeing that your combat power is almost 150,000, you’ve improved a lot. At this level, you could handle most heroes.”

“Oh, really?”

Choi Hyun-seok brightened at the mention of being able to defeat heroes.

“Usually, heroes have combat power around 150,000. Sometimes there are ones over 200,000, but that’s rare.”

“Aha.”

“You’re stronger than others with similar combat power, so you probably won’t lose to heroes in one-on-one fights.”

Heroes.

They seemed like distant, unreachable strong ones.

It didn’t feel real that he could now face them head-on and win.

“Stop making that stupid expression. Follow me.”

“Where are we going?”

“Fighting only monsters here every day will mess up your senses. You need proper real combat experience sometimes.”

Park Hyun-a said with a grin.

“So where…”

“Follow me and you’ll find out. Kid.”

At their destination was a spatial transfer gate.

“Hey, mutt.”

When Park Hyun-a called, Bobo wagged his tail vigorously.

“You can get smaller, right? Reduce your size a bit.”

“Kwang!”

Bobo started shrinking.

Park Hyun-a picked up Bobo, who had become small enough to hold.

‘He’s so docile…’

It was strange seeing Bobo being as gentle as a countryside dog.

“I’ll go in first with him, follow right after.”

“Yes.”

Park Hyun-a entered the gate first.

Choi Hyun-seok and Abelson followed.

‘Oh… This is really smooth?’

Usually, gate travel makes you queasy, but this barely had that feeling.

Choi Hyun-seok looked around after coming out.

“This is…”

On the surface, it looks like a quiet village.

However, there was one crucial difference from normal villages.

‘What is this, a monster gathering?’

Everyone walking around the streets was a high-level strong one.

Even the elders taking walks on the street had magic comparable to decent heroes.

“Older sister, what kind of place is this…?”

At Choi Hyun-seok’s question, Park Hyun-a grinned.

“A kind of humanity protection force? Something like that.”
