Chapter 151
Han Changsu calmed his breath and looked down at the two clubs on his feet . They didn't look heavy .
He took a deep breath and picked it up . It took him all his might to bring himself back up and swing those two clubs .
It wasn't the best skill, but he had been training the skill for the past 5 months with all his effort . Anyone who saw the clubs wouldn't be able to tell that they weighed over 500 pounds each as Changsu was moving them effortlessly through the air .
The movement stopped and Changsu dropped his clubs on the ground . He let out his breath and crouched . And to his ear-
"That was very good . "
There was the alluring voice of a woman and it was followed by people cheering and shouting .
"That was awesome!"
"Way to go!"
"Great job, Changsu!"
He looked up . He was pale from lack of air, but his bright smile was full of confidence . He was the official 'sixth' rank based on the power ranking within the city . With Dohyuk and Blass at the top, Giwon and Yuri as 3rd and 4th, Heeyun was 5th since Blass she approved of her as a genius .
Every other person was similar in terms of power compared to those five, but still, there was the difference in potential .
Han Changsu was a former slave . He had no special Nature or special abilities, but he was good in terms of general ability . He had good judgmental skills and focus too . Yuri once said that he would have been powerful if he had not died to the early earthquake in the first life .
Because of such a reason, he was the first to become a 'Senior Fighter' in the city . It was not just the title as Dohyuk gave him a hefty amount of coins in front of everyone . With that, Changsu now was the first citizen with 3 physical stats to exceed 500 .
"You adapted faster than I imagined . "
Yuri walked over to Changsu .
"Good job . "
Changsu brought himself up, pretending he wasn't out of breath . He didn't want to look weak in front of her .
"I did suggest for you to be the best next to the Mayor, but I didn't expect this much . I think I can even let you be my assistant in next battle if you keep it up . You won't embarrass me at least . "

"N-no way… I'm not…"
"Huh?"
Lee Yuri brought her face closer and asked . "You don't want to hang around with me?"
Changsu's face blushed quickly .
"I'm joking . "
Yuri smiled and turned . Changsu wasn't they shy type, but to the people of the city, especially men, Lee Yuri was worshipped like a goddess . Even though she was from the Circle, there weren't many who hated Yuri as she wasn't the type to abuse slaves in the first place .
Besides, she was now one of the most close lieutenants to Dohyuk and the 2nd battle tactics teacher, especially for 'real life' battle . Many men had a crush on her for those reasons .
"Alright!"
Yuri slapped Changsu's back loudly and looked around at the people .

"Now, don't be envious or jealous at him like fools . Our mayor is a good man . If you put your time and effort in it, you will become something more than your worthless self now . "
It was apparent that she was taunting these people, but she did it on purpose . These people were hand-picked by Blass who seemed to be ready for a real battle and Yuri knew what they were thinking right now . They were envious of Changsu . Surprisingly, this was a good sign for her .
'Very good . '
As for these people, Changsu was different from Dohyuk . He was different from Giwon, Yuri, or even Heeyun . Unlike them, Changsu was never 'powerful' . He was one of 'them' and just up until while ago . That's what brought the competition . They admired Changsu for his achievement, but they also felt challenged to do the same .
"Then I'll see you all tomorrow . Dismissed . "
People shouted their goodbyes and began going on their way, to either finish their work or take a rest .
"I think I enjoy this more than I thought I would . "
Yuri talked to herself as she smiled . She never objected Dohyuk's suggestion to become a battle tactics teacher, but her original reason was because she was told to .
But now, she was quite into it . These students showed her subordination and admiration . It was different from 'control' she had when she was in the Circle, but it was good . It was also great to see these students grow and achieve things . She even felt that she owned these students in some way as she got closer to them . It was surprising to say the least .

"I bet our good mayor didn't think this far . "
Whatever the case, it was a peaceful environment for humans and beasts, corrupt and non-corrupt like . Dohyuk had managed to find it .
"Maybe I should treat myself to some whiskey today . "
Lee Yuri began whistling old songs that were buried in her memory as she walked toward the city . And as she got closer to the city wall…
She paused in her steps . People gathered around under the wall wasn't unusual as there were farming fields there with people watching over it 24 hours . But this… something wasn't right .
The crowd was definitely not there to farm . There were too many and it was too loud . As she got closer to the crowd, she felt the people's confusion and fear . Someone found Yuri and began running up to her .
"…Dammit . "
She bit her lips . She knew a possible reason for this commotion . But she wished that it was not what she thought . She wished that it was something more simple, something commonplace .
But that wasn't the case .Please download our sponsor's game to support us!
