Personality Broken Hero - Chapter 104
104 – Episode 104
“Why are you so excited about going to train high school students?”
The day before the picnic, Han Seung-hee saw Nikolai, who was excited like a child, and asked.
“Ah~ What’s exciting. Just prepare in advance.”
Han Seung-hee, who saw Nikolai preparing for this and that with a smile on his lips as he hummed, was dumbfounded when he heard the excuse that he was not excited.
“It’s not persuasive to say something like that after preparing it while humming like a man, right?”
“Honestly, I’m looking forward to it a little bit. Seunghee, wasn’t there a tradition like this at the school you graduated from?”
“Ah, our school also invites senior heroes to fight, but a strange tradition like your school…”
As soon as I heard that it was a strange tradition, Nikolai replied.
“A strange tradition? How good is this education for top-tier heroes to develop their ability to deal with surprises and crises?”
“You don’t do that at the training ground, you do it while riding in the mountains at night.”
“Is that all to create tension like a real fight? It’s just visible in a bright place, so there’s no point in taking a surprise attack. Are there reasons for all our traditions?”
“Well… That statement is correct, but wouldn’t it be more appropriate to train against surprise attacks in crowded places or alleys? How often do heroes get attacked in the mountains at night these days?”
“…”
This time, Nikolai, who had no excuses, was silent.
“Well, even though the training method is a bit outdated, it will be helpful as it becomes a training partner like a real-life hero.”
When Nikolai looked a little gloomy, Seung-hee hurriedly made an excuse.
“Is this more effective than I thought? How much did I expect during my school days, but what kind of active hero will come? How much difference will it make? While thinking about this, I trained like crazy from a month ago.”
As soon as I made a little defending remark, Nikolai’s expression brightened noticeably and replied.
“So, did you see any effect after training for a month?”
“No? Most of them couldn’t fight back properly, were beaten up, and never reached their destination. If high school students have to gather, will they be able to compete with the top heroes? No one has been successful so far. Everyone thinks, ‘I am different,’ and then realizes the reality of how different I am from the pros.”
Han Seung-hee, who had been working as a hero with Nikolai for many years and had hardly seen him lose, became curious about the fact that Nikolai hadn’t even fought back properly.
“What is it, you haven’t even fought back properly? Who was your opponent?”
“I thought I would be successful thinking ‘I am different’. It’s not like I couldn’t even counterattack, but the senior ‘God of War’ held sand in his fist and sprinkled it…”
“Sand? Wow… Isn’t that too much for kids just graduating from high school? And if it’s ‘God’, isn’t it a veteran who listened to the strongest voice in active service at the time? I am retired now.”
After hearing Nikolai’s story, Han Seung-hee asked as if it were absurd.
“At that time, my body strengthening ability level had risen to that of active heroes, so I was honestly confident.
“So how did it go?”
“However, when I was dragged away, all the other subdued kids gathered there. Since it was a training at night, I didn’t know who was attacking me and my pride was hurt, but it wasn’t until after the training was over that I realized that the opponent was ‘fighting’ and I thought it would be hard to win even if I just fought, but I cursed inwardly, asking if I even used sand. Now I understand why he risked his life so much….”
“So you are preparing tomorrow to bully high school students like you did in the past?”
“Teasing? Is it just traditional ‘training’?”
At Nikolai’s answer, Seunghee looked at him with subtle eyes.

On the bus to the training ground, Park Jung-hyun was very excited about how great a hero would be to participate in today’s training.
It wasn’t just Park Jung-hyun waiting for today’s training, everyone was looking forward to what kind of hero would come and attack today.
“Which senior will come today?”
“Well… There should be so many seniors from our school. It won’t be successful anyway, so I’d rather have a top-notch hero in the industry like Nikolai, get an autograph.”
“Don’t say anything terrible, you madman! Then there is no chance of winning.”
“What? Were you thinking of winning? Wake up dream There’s a reason it hasn’t been successful in decades. The Nikolai you just said didn’t succeed either.”
Seoul Hero Training College conducts a training that requires students to arrive at their destination every year in their senior year, but for over several decades, no one has succeeded in reaching their destination even once.
The reason is simple, because it was close to impossible for high school students to arrive at their destination while avoiding or avoiding a surprise attack by top active heroes while riding a mountain at night and traveling a considerable distance.
Not only that, but thanks to the situation in which active heroes with strong self-respect do not want to make others succeed that they themselves have not succeeded, and even have the motivation that if their juniors succeed, even high school students will be treated as idiots who couldn’t stop them, It was a matter of picking stars from the sky for a high school student to be able to withstand the surprise attack by the heroes participating in the show with all their might.
“How much attention will we get if we succeed this time? You have to pass the hero qualification test to become a hero anyway, but you’ll still get a lot of attention, right? Even before debuting as a hero, you will be noticed as a top-notch prospect.”
After hearing Park Jung-hyun’s words, most of them ignored him, saying, “Don’t say nonsense.”
“Our school’s traditional training is not to the extent that it can be covered in articles, but all seniors in the industry know it, right? If you succeed, you will be called here and there after you pass the hero test as Jung-hyun said? I honestly want to go to the VIP security team if I can pick and choose…”
“Hey! Are you talking about the VIP security team, the Blue House security team, or just a politician? If you are a hero, of course you should go to the special ability response team!”
“Are you crazy? There are f*cking frequent dispatches, but due to a lack of manpower, the work is hard, and the villains you deal with are at a level that ordinary heroes can’t respond to. Why are you going to such a dangerous and difficult place? Is there a reason why security teams have such a high competition rate? First of all, they say it’s very spacious since working hours.”
The children argued for a while which department was better, and in the meantime, a bus arrived at the training ground.
Around the mountain where the sun was already setting and it was becoming dark, the chirping of birds could be heard from afar.
“Come on! Arrived at the training ground. Everyone, get off and go inside the building over there.”
“Yes.”
After answering the voice of the lead teacher, they got off the bus, and everyone seemed excited with a combination of anticipation and tension.
Some children were already jumping lightly or warming up.
“Stop talking nonsense and come in quickly. It starts right from the 1st row. It probably won’t happen, but when you trip or slip and get injured on a mountain, you press the rescue button on your smart watch right away.”
“No, we’re not even regular high school students, so would you ask for help just because we fell down?”
The competition rate at the Hero Training College is quite high, and since all of them are talented people who undergo intensive training to become a hero, he answered with a little bit of pride when he was told to call for help if he gets injured while walking on a mountain trail.

“Surprisingly, it happens more often than you think. It’s dark and it’s hard to see, but sometimes there are kids who overdo it and drive it into a stone or tree and break something. I beg you, please, I hope you don’t get hurt by overdoing it. Ruler! Group 1 ahead!”
When the children in group 1 came out to the leading teacher, the leading teacher led the children out of the building.
As the lead teacher led the first group out, everyone started chatting.
“Oh f*ck, I’m so f*cking nervous.”
A close friend of Park Jung-hyun came over and started talking to him.
“Aren’t you nervous and banging your head on a stone? If I really drive myself somewhere and break it, how will I carry it with my head up?”
“Am I an idiot? It’s fortunate that I trained with just a few months left before graduation, but if I had to go to school for a year after being broken and asking for help, I would never be able to attend.”
“How did your group decide to go? Our group decided to gather and go.”
“Ah, our group is just a separate life. If everyone scatters around, won’t one lucky guy arrive?”
“Ah! That looks good too. Still, our group of 10 decided to fight. Even the senior heroes have to adjust their strength anyway, so if 10 people are fighting against one person, wouldn’t there be some possibility?”
It wasn’t long before we started chatting like that, but the lead teacher returned.
However, the returning teacher was carrying a group of students from earlier on his shoulders.
“Now, one member of Group 1 has already been eliminated. If you fail, you can go to the infirmary to get a diagnosis and then go to the next building. You can’t give information to kids who haven’t started training yet!”
“Ugh…”
The guy who was carried on the teacher’s shoulder did not lose consciousness, but he could not walk properly even after the teacher lowered him to the ground, so he was helped into the infirmary.
“Wow… crazy, how long has it been since you started?”
“Who are you today?”
The children who were waiting, including Park Jeong-hyeon, each exclaimed, realizing that today’s training would not be easy.
