Ugh!

dump

tear A image

tear A

Haa..haa..v! Is this training not over yet?

tear V image

tear V

Wake up! You're being punished. I told you clearly... 10 hours of hellish training... Get moving!

tear A image

tear A

Ugh..damn!!

This is a special training ground in the swamp

aka hell of a swamp

It is literally hellish special training where you have to block all the attacks from the assassination dolls that tear N himself created in pitch-black darkness.

A is currently undergoing 10 hours of hellish special training under the guidance of V, who is furious that N's injury was caused by A's foolish mistake.

But as everyone knows, N's production and modification skills are better than anyone else's, so each and every one of the iron dolls he makes has skills similar to N's.

A's body, which had been training for two hours, was covered in cuts and bruises.

But Boss V just looked at A with his cold gaze, as if he was well known for his cruelty.

tear J image

tear J

V..Are you really going to make me do 10 hours of hellish training?

tear V image

tear V

I never go back on my word. If I say 10 hours, it's 10 hours.

tear J image

tear J

Isn't that too much? If you keep doing that, A will die!

tear V image

tear V

Seriously? Because of that guy's ridiculous mistake, N almost died. We almost lost N, who made up half of our organization!

tear J image

tear J

that...

tear V image

tear V

And... I don't think he's weak enough to die from this level of training. You know that, having experienced this training yourself.

tear J image

tear J

.....

tear V image

tear V

K! Call N and M. We need to discuss something.

tear K image

tear K

All right.

tear J image

tear J

I'm going back to my room. I'm tired.

tear V image

tear V

No! You're still here. I have something to talk about with you too.

tear J image

tear J

......?

20

20 minutes

20 minutes later!

tear N image

tear N

What's going on? You called me here? Is there something wrong with the Iron Man training system?

tear m image

tear m

If that were the case, J and I wouldn't have been called here.

tear V image

tear V

I have something to tell you. It's something I can only tell the four of you who have completed this Iron Man training system.

N,M

...?

tear V image

tear V

Let me get straight to the point. I'm thinking of increasing the difficulty of the training A is doing... What do you think?

N,M

......!

tear J image

tear J

V! Are you in your right mind? Even the lowest difficulty level is already hard for A. Plus, I'm covered in bruises! And now you're going to raise the difficulty again?

tear V image

tear V

I hope you don't get swayed by emotions and look at it with a broader perspective. J.

tear J image

tear J

What is that...

tear V image

tear V

I may be being too cold-hearted, but... given A's current abilities, he can't survive in our organization. That's why I had no choice but to come to this conclusion.

tear N image

tear N

Well... he may seem calm, but his personality of losing his cool often and his bad habit of insisting on a knife rather than a gun are fatal. Look.

N stopped talking and pointed to the training ground where A was.

tear N image

tear N

Right now, we're helpless against puppets who only use knives and fire guns from afar.

tear m image

tear m

Then... wouldn't it be better to give them a gun from the beginning and then raise it to level 2? If using a knife is a disadvantage, it'd be better to force them to break that habit.

tear N image

tear N

I think so too. V, what do you think?

tear V image

tear V

Well... I don't think there are any other opinions, so let's just decide! Before we do that...

tear N image

tear N

?

tear m image

tear m

?

자까 image

자까

?

tear N image

tear N

You go in.

자까 image

자까

yes..

tear V image

tear V

N, you haven't forgotten, have you? The Iron Man training system requires manual manipulation of the dolls starting from stage 2...

tear J image

tear J

What? Manual?

tear V image

tear V

Yes. In short, you have to input all the various movements into the brains of those countless iron dolls and make them move.

tear J image

tear J

Do you think that's possible now?

tear N image

tear N

You did it. Stage 2, which I personally control.

tear J image

tear J

No matter what, the situation is completely different now than it was then! And my head is injured too...

tear N image

tear N

I really appreciate your concern, but I'm fine. For this organization, I can do anything.

tear m image

tear m

N...

tear V image

tear V

So it's decided?

In response to N's answer, V pressed the training pause button, temporarily stopping the movements of the iron dolls.

tear A image

tear A

What are you doing?

tear V image

tear V

You will now enter the second stage of the Iron Man training system. You will only be given guns as weapons.

tear A image

tear A

Are you kidding me? I've only ever used a knife as an assassin. You expect me to pass the second stage armed only with a gun?

tear V image

tear V

If you join our organization and remain as a member who only handles one weapon, it will be a loss for the organization's reputation.

tear A image

tear A

Selfish bastard..

tear V image

tear V

I have permission, so...M, give the two guns you took from the armory to A.

tear m image

tear m

huh.

At V's command, M went down to the training room with the two guns he had brought beforehand and handed them to A.

tear m image

tear m

I'll tell you how it works.

tear A image

tear A

Okay. Who do you think I am? Do you even know how a gun works? Why isn't it firing?

tear m image

tear m

That's why I said I'd tell you. Listen carefully. This is a gun that N specially made. It's perfect for beginners who are using a gun for the first time.

tear A image

tear A

Are you kidding me?

tear m image

tear m

Don't empathize and just listen to the explanation. Usually, you have to pull here to release the lock before pulling the trigger on a gun.

tear A image

tear A

huh.

tear m image

tear m

But this gun has been modified to reduce such cumbersome actions and to be released only once for rapid firing.

tear A image

tear A

How do I solve it?

tear m image

tear m

Just flick this bullet cap once. Then the lock inside will be completely released.

tear A image

tear A

here?

tear m image

tear m

And one thing to note is that when you put in bullets and close the lid, the lock automatically locks, so you have to reload the bullets and then unlock it again.

tear A image

tear A

okay.

tear m image

tear m

then..

As M, who had finished explaining everything, went up to the training room, V sent a signal to N, who had been preparing in advance.

tear V image

tear V

N! Now start.

tear N image

tear N

okay!

N, who received V's signal, moved his fingers dazzlingly on the keyboard, and the two-stage iron dolls, whose movements were inputted, began to run towards him with guns and swords.

As the iron men ran towards him, A tried to remain calm and started shooting them one by one.

tear N image

tear N

Hoo... Your body vision is pretty good, isn't it? M, you gave me the auxiliary bullets properly, right?

tear m image

tear m

huh.

tear A image

tear A

..ugh...there's a mouse on my finger..

tear V image

tear V

As expected, since I'm not used to guns, my fingers get cramps easily.

tear A image

tear A

I can overcome this... I left that organization with such determination... Do you think I'll give in to this kind of training?!

tear N image

tear N

.....uh..

A, who was madly firing bullets in a fit of rage, suddenly realized that he had run out of bullets and quickly reloaded.

tear A image

tear A

Ah... That's why guns are annoying... Okay. Hurry up and do it again.

Grumble.. Grumble..

tear A image

tear A

Huh? Why... isn't it firing?

tear J image

tear J

You have to unlock it!

tear V image

tear V

It's no use. All sounds here have already been blocked out.

tear J image

tear J

Why don't you pull the lock?

tear V image

tear V

'When people are put in an unfamiliar situation, their brains suddenly shut down and they forget what to do next.'

tear V image

tear V

How would you react in this situation?

N, who saw V's gaze, muttered quietly.

tear N image

tear N

So that's why they gave me that punishment...

one side,

A, who was in the training room, was in a state of panic and unable to unlock the door. His body was badly damaged from being hit multiple times.

tear A image

tear A

Damn it... why the hell aren't the bullets firing! Ah...

A giant iron doll, unlike the previous iron dolls, appeared 5m away from A, boasting an enormous size and long, sharp, thorny claws.

tear A image

tear A

iced coffee..

tear J image

tear J

If you keep doing this, A will die! Stop the training now. V!

tear V image

tear V

No, keep going like this. If he dies here... that's his fate.
