Regressor’s Life After Retirement Chapter 342

—————————————

[ (Side Story) Attention everyone! ]

After a fierce battle, the boss room was reduced to ruins.

[Keu… That’s pretty cool…]

In the middle of the ruins, the Demon King (Minjae in disguise) was glaring at the party confronting him.

Traces of the fierce battle remained all over their bodies.

“As expected, the Demon King….”

“He’s stronger than I thought.”

“Tch! “If only I could use fireworks, it would be gum.”

While everyone took a moment to catch their breath and take a silent break, Minjae brought his eyebrows together and thought.

‘I don’t know if we would have just let it pass from the beginning, but we can’t do anything roughly once the fight has started.’

That would diminish the meaning of this test, and it was something that Demon Ball Kim Min-jae’s pride could not tolerate.

So I seriously fought as hard as I could….

‘…I can’t go any further. Really unreasonable.’

We had been fighting for several hours already, and there was no bone in my body that didn’t ache.

In particular, the area where Lily, who had transformed into a martial arts girl, had hit her had blue bruises.

Those little fists are so hard they’re like marbles…

‘No, what on earth did Master Cheonma teach you?’

If it was that Cheonmugeuk, I would have thought it was cute and taught Lily all sorts of new tricks.

‘It’s fortunate that he seems to be able to control his strength in his own way without using flames…’

What if Lily had used her strength properly?

It must have been roasted in minutes, not hours… It was terrifying to even imagine.

‘Anyway, this is enough. They also seem pretty exhausted…’

Absolutely! It’s not that I don’t think I can win.

Minjae, who had been notified of his acceptance and thought that he should exit gracefully, opened his mouth.

[haha. Thanks to that, I was able to enjoy it for the first time in a long time….]

If it weren’t for the face being so unrecognizable, it would have been a line that suited the situation quite well.

[I have seen enough of your strength at this level. Now that I’ve proven my qualifications, let’s go to the next step…]

It was when Minjae relaxed his body and quietly tried to induce a heartwarming ending called a ‘draw’.

“Found a gap!”

“How are you going to end it in a draw?”

“…I came this far, so I have to see the end.”

Without missing the moment, Lily and the two girls rushed in and said,

“Hey, guys. Wouldn’t this be enough for us…”

“Shinhan. “Let’s go too.”

Soshinhan and the knight Gerold, both with dying faces, followed behind them.

[Now wait a minute…!]

Minjae was taken aback and tried to block it by hastily raising his magic power, but he was already so exhausted that he had no strength left to resist any longer.

-Bah! Bah! Ba-ba-ba-baak!

[Stop that…!]

“Oppose special treatment! Fair test!”

[Oh, okay, so surrender…!]

“No questions and answers!”

Lily’s dropkick, which flew without a question-and-answer attitude, landed squarely in Minjae’s face.

-Bah!

It was the final blow.

Minjae slowly fell backwards as if in slow motion, looking at Lily, who had dealt him the final blow, with resentful eyes.

‘Are you hitting me while I’m talking in a mean way…’

-…Kow!

The Demon King, lying down on the floor, closed his eyes after leaving a single word as if he were making a will.

[…It’s your victory.]

At that moment, a fanfare rang out from the ceiling of the cave and a congratulatory message flowed from the speakers.

[Hidden mission accomplished! You have defeated the Demon King with amazing skills!]

[Congratulations! You are the first party to defeat the Demon Lord! Bonus points will be awarded to the entire party as a reward for amazing achievements!]

[Additional bonus points will be awarded by calculating each test taker’s contribution to battle!] [Because the

hidden mission has been completed, a ‘special reward’ will be awarded.]

[Points and Rewards can be checked with the smart band and are reflected in future test scores.]

“You won!”

An excited Lily hugged Wendy and Anna at the same time and jumped up and down.

“I’m dizzy!”

“Stop that…”

The two weak(?) magical girls were swept around as Lily held them and shook them.

“Oh my god… we really beat the demon lord… what are they…”

“Is there anything more surprising?”

Soshinhan, whose body was scorched and torn here and there, looked at the fallen demon king and the girls alternately with his mouth wide open, while Gerold chuckled and put away his sword.

Minjae looked at the whole scene with a distraught expression.

‘shit. I am the first demon lord to be defeated…’

I must be the first and only.

I wonder how much the other professors at WHA would laugh if they found out…

Minjae already wanted to hide in a rat hole.

[Candidates who passed the mission are asked to proceed to the final exam site.]

That was the last message.

The group turned to the side and passed by so as not to step on the demon king who had fallen in the middle of the road.

They glanced at the Demon King with a slightly sorry expression.

Gossip and gossip.

‘But didn’t you hit me too much? Still, he’s going to be our professor…’

‘You won’t be disadvantaged later because of what happened today, right?’

‘Oh no way. ‘Can a hero be that petty?’

…I can hear everything. Hey guys .. hey guys.

It was then. Lily rushed over and whispered in Minjae’s ear.

“You didn’t think we were acquaintances, right? “My uncle said that preferential treatment is absolutely prohibited.”

[…No.]

I wish it were that way.

Lily whispered as she gently applied the potion to Sirutdeok’s swollen face.

“I’m sorry for hitting you so much. But the sirutteok was much stronger than before, so there was nothing I could do about it. “It looks like you trained hard?”

Hey Lily.

I’m going to be your professor from now on?

Why can’t you look at me happily?

[…really? Do you think I’ve become too strong?]

“Yes! “It got so strong!”

Minjae’s mouth twitched as if he was happy to be praised for that again.

Lily squatted down and diligently applied the potion to Minjae’s face and body, then stood up.

“I’ll wait for my friends and go first. See you later!”

[…okay. I’ll go eat next time.]

Minjae watched the back of the girl running to her friends and slowly stood up.

“Ugh…”

He turned off the voice modifier and flopped down on the half-broken Demon King’s throne.

Lily applied the potion all over my body so thoroughly that my whole body felt sticky.

“what the. It’s not like I’m giving you a bottle or giving

you medicine…” Even though my body was in pain, I couldn’t help but laugh.

It wasn’t because I felt bad.

It’s not like he’s a pervert who likes to be beaten.

“Anyway, I can’t hate you…”

If you think about it, Lily—even though she’s actually a big person—was right.

Opportunities should be given equally to everyone and no preferential treatment should be given just because of acquaintance.

All the professors knew that Lily was strong.

However, as long as Lily kept the fact that she was the master of the flame a secret from everyone, it was right for her to take the test in a way that everyone could understand.

‘I was just going to let her go because the other person was Lily… I was short-thinking.’

If Lily hadn’t reminded him of that fact, Minjae wouldn’t have known his mistake until the end.

Minjae muttered as he looked at Lily’s back, which was already so far away that she looked like a small dot.

“Be sure to pass. “It’s Lily.”

The final testing ground won’t be easy for Lily either.

Because WHA was not established simply to develop strong heroes.

But if it’s Lily…

‘I learned from watching Daein next to him. There’s no way it’s going to fall.’

So….

“It’s a relief. “You’re going to have a hard time too.”

Sigh.

As he thought of his colleagues who would soon suffer more than him, the pain seemed to be bearable.

***

Murmur.

The candidates gathered in the final exam room were looking around and chatting.

The final exam hall where the candidates who passed the Demon King’s test arrived was a pure white space.

Everything from floor to wall to ceiling is spotless white.

It was a space where one could feel a bit fearful, but among the test takers who arrived there, although there were some who were nervous, there was no one who was scared.

“What are you asking me to do here?”

“Maybe I should find the mission myself?”

“They might be trying to gather us here and have us fight….”

“I think it would be best to wait carefully first. Let’s wait until something changes.”

A total of 23 teams have arrived at the final testing site so far.

The story was that the average number of parties passed by professors disguised as demon kings in 10 caves was less than 3 teams.

As expected of the applicants who overcame such low odds, each and every one of them possessed a considerable level of strength.

‘This place…’

‘Only real guys gathered here.’

Candidates secretly kept in check other parties who might soon become enemies, checking the color of the band on the other party’s wrist.

Most of them were wearing orange or yellow bands.

Classes were divided from the start of the exam.

Red in order. orange. Yellow. green. blue. Navy. purple.

And white.

Even test takers who initially questioned the classifications made by the WHA were now forced to admit that the classifications were quite accurate.

‘The guys here. Everything is orange or yellow. Drawn by Choi Ha….’

‘If the color increases by one, the skill improves by more than several times.’

‘…Then how strong are those two?’

As a result, attention naturally focused on the two boys with red bands.

“hey. Jang Young-shin.”

“…What’s going on? Kuro.”

Youngshin Jang and Shin Kurodama.

Two boys, the number one object of caution for all test takers, had just come into contact.

-Passion!

Due to the fierce fighting between the two boys, even the team members who came with them couldn’t get closer and took a step back.

-Ji-ing!

Kurodama Shin, who blocked the sound from escaping with a curtain, asked Jang Young-shin.

The expression on his face was stiff, as if he was about to fight.

“Have you seen Lily?”

Kurodama Shin was often misunderstood because of his strong impression.

“…I didn’t see it.”

Jang Young-shin was also famous for his cold expression.

‘Look at that! ‘I wonder if these two are going to have a fight!’

‘Fight! ‘It’s clearly a fighting look!’

Because of this, the moment the two boys stood face to face, the test takers felt that the situation was imminent and tensed their bodies.

However, the conversation between the two was actually peaceful.

“okay? “You didn’t see it either?”

“…uh. “If I had used fireworks, I would have known right away.”

The two boys had no idea.

How they are reflected in the eyes of other test takers out there.

The two had no interest in anything other than Lily.

“Hmm. That’s strange. There’s no way I failed the test…”

“…It’s an impossible assumption.”

“Maybe I was eating something and didn’t hear the announcement?

“…hmm. “That is a very possible assumption.”

The two boys, who had finally reached an agreement, said, “Hmmmm.” and nodded at the same time.

They both had soft smiles on their faces as they remembered Lily’s cute face eating everything deliciously.

Murmur.

“I just laughed…”

“Why? “Weren’t you trying to get into a fight?”

“Isn’t it like smiling before killing someone?”

“What on earth are you two talking about?…”

The test takers watched the two boys with anxious eyes.

They stare at each other coldly, then suddenly laugh out loud, and then they stare at each other seriously, as if they’re about to fight again, and then they start giggling like people who have lost their minds again. It’s like… “… aren’t you a total psychopath?

”

“Is that what a conversation between monsters that deviates from common sense is like?…”

“What is that scary…” As

the test takers watched the scene in real time, goosebumps appeared on their skin and cold sweat formed on their backs.

That was when the absurd misunderstandings about the two boys piled up like a snowball.

[Attention everyone!]

A man appeared in the exam room with a booming voice.
