The Tutorial Is Too Hard Chapter 213.1 - Tutorial 40th Floor (?) (Part 1)

Proofreader: G.o.dlyCash

[It looks interesting. ]

Ahb.o.o.boo spoke as he looked at me silently.

It may look interesting since I’m playing catch marbles.

“What, would you like to try?”

[You know I can’t do it. But you play it well, marbles catching.]

“Because it’s a game that is to be played with others. Since I was a child, I have been reluctant to admit defeat for this kind of thing. So I made up my mind to win and my skill in turn grew.”

[Oh… so you played since childhood.]

What was that att.i.tude?

[If you lose one round, you’d be the annoying kid who declares it invalid and restarts the round. There are always such people. In order to get the results they want, kids struggle desperately, scream, and make trouble.]

The description is very picturesque.

Maybe it’s because I’ve seen so many children who act shamelessly after losing to me that I can imagine that scene immediately.

But that’s not usually the case in my childhood.

“Regardless, I haven’t done that.”

[Forget it. Everything has its first time. Anyways, the games played with other people should be lost in order to learn. You still refuse to admit defeat even now?]

“No, you swine. I’ve hardly lost anything like that so far.”

It’s true.

If I see someone playing catch marbles, I will observe the rules and methods of the game before consulting that person.

Then I’ll practice by myself and invite that person to play when I think I can win.

Since I was a child, I prefer winning games rather than enjoying them.

If one’s eyes are only set on victory, it’s impossible to make a fool of yourself when challenging someone without knowing the methods.

[Yes, yes. You are right.]

What should I do with that nasty mouth?

“Wait till I learn silencing magic one day, you just watch.”

[Then I’ll dispel it. You can’t touch me unless you’re better at magic than I am. Ho, Ho, Ho.]

I think that’s the biggest reason this guy doesn’t teach me magic.

d.a.m.n it.

Speaking of the long-lost childhood stories, I can’t help recalling that time I lost to an older kid in my community at a fighting game.

That is a very rare memory.

Note: It means that the MC seldom loses, so there are few such memories.

I put my bag in the seat next to the game console and was brus.h.i.+ng past instance zones, but very few people moved my bag aside to challenge me.

I didn’t practice it enough then and that kid was a very good master.

If I could win, pigs might fly.

After losing two games in a row, I ran out of coins and had to go home.

By the time I got more money and returned to the arcade, that kid had disappeared.

My revenge for that lost has not yet been completed.

Because I haven’t seen that kid since.

I chose to be an E-sports player as my profession, which must have been influenced by this memory.

In a sense, that experience had a great impact on my life.

I pick up the scattered marbles.

After about 10 minutes, I think I’ve played enough.

“Is this all right?”

[No. You must check for even slight symptoms of poisoning. The toxicity can penetrate into the body through the surface of the skin.]

Ahb.o.o.boo is right.

Every time this happens, I feel inconvenienced by my excessive resistance.

If my resistance is weaker, I could react immediately at any level of incubation.

After leaving the waiting room, I have to spend some time experimenting.

I was just playing catch marbles with crystals made from Poison Ki and aura.

This is what Kiri Kiri advised me to do.

When I asked Kiri Kiri about the development of the Poison Ki, she got angry with me at first, but then told me that I should improve the safety of my Poison Ki rather than its power.

She added that enhancing the power and flexibility comes after this.

She suggests that I should liquefy Poison Ki for coating first.

As soon as I return to the waiting room, I make poison blood and started testing.

But whether it’s gla.s.s, plastic, or steel, it’s not easy to directly coat things with dissolved Poison Ki (poison blood).

Magic couldn’t control the Poison Ki, so I had to store it as solidified aura crystals.

Making aura crystals was more difficult than I thought.

After several days of hard work, I was able to produce crystals of the shape and size I wanted.

As the final work, I made several crystals with black venom dangling inside and red aura wrapped outside.

Now it looks like a gem.

[Yes, it looks like a gem, a gem mined from h.e.l.l. The surface is as bright red as blood and there is a dark sticky liquid slus.h.i.+ng inside. The only person who can see these things as gemstones is you.]

I ignore Ahb.o.o.boo’s murmur.

That is just my personal feeling.

I appreciate the aura crystal, I was making sure my hands will not be stained with poison.

I should confirm it again outside the waiting room where I can try more experiments.

Kiri Kiri’s advice was helpful.

Have I known that even if she has a.s.serted that there were no tips for me, I would eventually get useful advice if I just approach a subject without going straight to the point.

Another thing is that just one cake won’t entice her to make suggestions.

[Kim MinHyuk, 30th floor: Hey, are you available?]

Kim MinHyuk’s message after such a long time.

No matter what happened, it’s usually Park JungAh who sends messages to me.

I have rarely talked to Kim MinHyuk since I handed over the personnel management of h.e.l.l Difficulty to Lee Hyung Jin.

Although we occasionally chatted, since he didn’t have to meet with me to discuss the Order of Vigilance and he had nothing to report, the chatting time naturally decreased.

[Lee HoJae, 41st floor: I’m available.]

[Kim MinHyuk, 30th floor:… When did you go up to the 41st floor? Well, forget it. I got information from the newcomers who entered this round. It’s said that the government is investigating the status and the location of the challenger’s family. It is estimated that they will get the information next cycle or the cycle after that.]

That’s a long time.

When those graduating from the tutorial come into contact with the government, their first action was to confirm the status of their families.

It’s been months since graduates began to appear. It looks like the government is finally starting to work.

[Kim MinHyuk, 30th floor: It seems that there are several graduates who are dissatisfied with the government. There is a rumor that they intend to go to other countries and because of this, they are now accused of being traitors or something. I guess it was because of this that the government rushed to action.]
