The Tutorial Is Too Hard Chapter 227:

[You’ve obtained the token . ]
After breaking through all the traps and reaching the end of the branch path, we finally retrieved the token in the form of a blue gem .
[You’re not allowed to enter yet . ]
[Please wait until all teams have retrieved their tokens at each branch path . ]
It seems that there’s a team that hasn’t retrieved their token yet .
Maybe it’s John Overton and the frog .
The frog would be of little practical help .
Or perhaps it’s Lee Joon Suk and Lee Jin’s group who hasn’t obtained the token yet .
Because Lee Joon Suk must want to proceed slowly .
Lee Jin may think the same way .
“It’s quite interesting . ”
I nod after hearing what Lee Hyung Jin said .
I can see why everyone repeatedly challenges the tournament stage to gradually raise their records .
The tournament isn’t just competitive, but it’s also fun .
It felt like playing a virtual reality game, solving puzzles, avoidings traps, figuring out the correct direction, they were all enjoyable .
“Do challengers of other difficulties use this method to clear stages?”
Asked Lee Hyung Jin .
I shake my head .
“No . They would never find the stage enjoyable this way . ”
What if the stages in the tutorial were designed just like this?
The tournament is able to maintain a relaxed and joyous atmosphere to increase motivation among challengers regardless of their difficulties instead of inducing tension and fear . .
Challengers may achieve higher results in the future due to this .
On the contrary, the opposite may occur as well .
In any case, there won’t be as many people dying due to the new design .
“Big bro, What’s wrong?”
“Nothing . I’m just pondering something . . “
As I am in deep in thought, Lee Hyung Jin beside me asks .
This guy is talented at reading faces, which is not always a good thing .
The other two groups haven’t finished their branch so I give Lee Hyung Jin a break .
Then I continue my internal strife .
My end goal is to escape the tutorial system .
I don’t want to escape alone, I want to also liberate others trapped in the tutorial .
As long as they want to .
The problem in this case is that the tutorial system itself could crash .
No matter how superhuman I am, it’s an almost insurmountable challenge to destroy the system created by the Gods with a human body .
But I still want to consider the consequences of that .
Because I’m toiling away to achieve this goal and making this futile dream a reality .
So I want to scrutinize it in advance .
If the tutorial truly disappeared .
The tutorial exists for two purposes .
One is to cultivate the apostles of God and have them collect the essences from origin monsters .
The other purpose is to cultivate superhumans through the tutorial so that they can suppress the monsters in the external world .
The first reason is trivial, but the second is a necessity .
If I completely get rid of the tutorial one day, people who have nothing to do with it will suffer .
I’m concerned about that .
If the tutorial is destroyed, a new tutorial needs to be created so I’m pondering how I can incorporate the tournament’s design into it .
It should be enjoyable so that it can stimulate the interest of the challengers .
Just make it more like a game .
Naturally, problems concerning the tensions and the mindset of the challengers may arise, but there are also those who risk their lives to play games .
Overall, it shouldn’t be a pressing concern .
Above all, this will prevent people from committing suicide if they can’t withstand the despair .
For now, the concept has been sorted .
It is pointless to worry anymore .
I haven’t even completed the first goal of escaping the tutorial so I shouldn’t think too far ahead .
Now is the time to solve the more urgent issues .
“Hyung Jin . ”
“Yes, Big bro . ”
“Have the other teams arrived yet?”
“No . ”
“Then stand up . Let’s spar . ”
“…Huh?”
“Hurry up . It’ll only take 10 minutes . ”
Lee Hyung Jin’s face loses blood after heading what I said .
He calls me as he unconsciously retreats
“Big bro . ”
“What?”
“Give me a break . ”
* * *
“You always have this problem . It’s good to be realistic and intuitive, but it’s not good to constantly avoid danger . Am I going to kill you, huh? ”
“Th-That’s dangerous!”
“Hey! It’s dangerous to go to the supermarket in winter! Many people die when they fall on the icy roads . We all bear that risk when going to the supermarket . It’s natural to be at risk when you’re trying to gain something . “
Although I’m the one who said it, I find my metaphor a little strange .
So I change the topic .
“Before thinking about how dangerous it will be to spar with me, you should think about how valuable it will be to you . This is an opportunity that no one else will ever get . “
“Still…”
“Sparing is no more dangerous than walking on icy roads . The gap between our strengths ensures that there won’t be any dangers . “
“But there could be accidents . ”
That’s what the skill difference ensures that there are no accidents .
Everyone is afraid of the potential damage and the death that follows danger, but Lee Hyung Jin’s avoidance of danger is surprisingly high .
It’s even more surprising since he’s a challenger who has made it to the 13th floor of Hell Difficulty .
I question how such a safety oriented person made it to the 13th floor .
It took me a while to convince Lee Hyung Jin to stand up .
Others would think I’m pestering him like a teacher if they saw this .
I give Lee Hyung Jin a little time to warm up .
His warm up lasts more than five minutes .
“Let’s get started, big bro . Please . ”
Ugh, this coward .
After his words, Lee Hyung Jin makes a quick leap towards me .
I’m a little shocked .
I didn’t expect him to come straight at me .
And it’s quite swift .
He would be faster than the past me if I didn’t have Blink .
I put out my hand and ready a counterattack .
As Lee Hyung Jin rushes towards me, he sees this and swerves to the side .
But because of his inertia, he goes past me .
This bastard, what is he doing?
His sprint puts him all the way back creating a huge distance and then rushes up again .
I turn around to prepare for his attack again .
However, Lee Hyung Jin changes his direction again as he approaches me .
Then he runs far behind me a second time .
“Hey, bitch, stop messing around!”
“But as soon as I close the distance, I feel like I can’t do it! What can I do!?”
Lee Hyung Jin protests .
I ask him to explain in detail, he claims he would feel impending death once he enters a certain range so he felt he couldn’t do it at all .
I smack my lips at his explanation .
A wonderful intuition .
“Ahbooboo, help him . ”
[Yes, warrior . ]
Ahbooboo comes out of my waist and flies towards Lee Hyung Jin .
Lee Hyung Jin mistakes it for an attack upon seeing it and starts running away .
I feel a headache at the sight of him .
Eventually Ahbooboo catches up to Lee Hyung Jin by tripping his leg, thus ending the game of tag between a sword and a man .
Then Ahbooboo is clasped in Lee Hyung Jin’s hands .
Although Ahbooboo acts like that, he is a holy sword gifted by God .
His main feature isn’t his own attack prowess, but assisting the wielder and supplementing his strength .
In addition, Ahbooboo has a very special ability .
“AHHHHH!”
Lee Hyung Jin screeches in madness .
