19 Chapter 35.2 - Keio Challenger # 2

In the end, the first round did not escape Hanwoojin's palm from start to finish. Shinji Ishihara never played the game, and Hanwoojin won the victory with an overwhelming score while maintaining his distinctive expressionless face.

Until the end of the end, Ishihara could not catch Han's serve. The gap between the skills between him and Hanwoojin was wide.

Elapsed time is 37 minutes 41 seconds. Perfect Scoredown, a quick decision.

"Match won by Ujin Han! 6-0, 6-0! "

Only after hearing the referee's declaration, Han Woo-jin released his grip on the racket. Although the skills gap was huge, the burden of perfect sub-games and the desire for perfect scores were tightening his nerves.

'It's a nuisance condition because I know.'

Hanwoojin breathed lightly and approached the net. Obsessed with the service ace, the health consumed was slightly beyond the expected range. But now that he lost a powerful scorer named Sparrow, he won the service ace.

It was thanks to Hanwoojin's ability.

As the two players across the net shook hands at the end of the game, the overwhelming content of the game shouted.

Oh!

'what?'

It was really embarrassing Hanwoojin side. For him, I couldn't get a good eye for the Korean player overwhelming Japan, and this university. What is this shout?

Hanwoojin came down from the court, knocking down his usual poker face, bewildered by an unexpected surprise. What caught his broken face was the system's sound at the end of the game.

[Overwhelming play! The experience point of the skill used in return for winning one round with a perfect score increases.]

[correction. There are achievements from the top leagues. Rewards are slightly reduced.]

[Skill upgrade progress: 19%]

'19%… ' Isn't it bad? '

If it's a perfect score, the sub game is only six times. If you've never returned, you have 24 chances to win a service ace. 19 of them won a good result for the challenger league.

Of course, Ishihara heard that even if he dug into the ground because the grass didn't die, I thought it wasn't enough. He left the tournament with some comfort, saying that his opponent was Han Woo-jin.

Hanwoojin's first round is over.

Each successful service ace increases your skill upgrade progress by 1%. If you fill up 100%, you don't know what it is, but it will benefit him.

Hanwoojin decided to find a way to make progress at 100% as soon as possible.

But I think there was a blind spot. To record a lot of service aces, you need to play a lot of sub games. But if you record an overwhelming score like in the first round, the game ends too quickly.

If you exchange points or games to some extent, you'll have more chances to hit the service ace as well as the number of sub games.

'Shall we pull a little?'

Can't we just drag the game out with points or games on purpose? Han Woojin came up with that trick. If that worked, it would have been clear to be able to meet almost every percent of the Keio Challenger as well as the Shenzhen Open.

However, it was a moment when the expectation collapsed.

In the second round the following day, Han Woo-jin handed over a game to his opponent with a deliberate mistake and was forced to frown when he saw the alarm.

[Intentional giveaway! Penalties will be added for actions that have nothing to do with the progress of the game.]

[The service ace of the set in which it was acted does not affect its progress.]

[Reward experience is reduced.]

Shouldn't it be tricky? The system, which had no words when giving points due to problems such as distribution of physical strength, plunged quickly. Han Woo-jin finished the second round again after scoring the same trick.

The progress achieved was only 8%. It was a tragedy because one set of progress was confiscated.

"Fuck, don't smoke."

Hanwoojin tasted bitterly. You can't make progress if you use that trick to achieve your progress. Sparrow was sealed in the past. It wasn't too bad to see the game with pure sub skills on this occasion. Where are the systems and skills

I was complementary.

If you raise your skills in practice or competitions, your skill level will rise.

Increase your level by accumulating experience.

It was a matter of whether the egg was first or the chicken first. Either way, it will help you. Getting all the sub games without special skills will be enough training. Han Woo-jin decided to take this penalty as an opportunity.

'I should try.'

I always did.

* * *

One round quickly finished with a perfect score.

Just one game, two rounds equal to a perfect score except for a deliberate run.

Hanwoojin's game, literally overwhelming, attracted the attention of those who filled the audience with half the attention and half the curiosity. No, it wasn't stringy. They cheered loudly as if it were Korean or not.

I even cheered on Hanwoojin.

In the third round, Han Woo-jin realized that one of his thoughts was prejudice. He thought Japanese people would have a lot of hostility toward other countries as well.

But it wasn't. Of course, there was no such person at all, but most of them seemed to be what is Korean. It was a little different from the Koreans whose terrors soar when their own players lose to Japanese players.

Is it the difference between the victim and the perpetrator, or the depths of emotions they have? Spiritually over 30 years old Hanwoojin can not guess the story.

Well, it wasn't bad for him anyway. The audience was so favorable that there was nothing to lose. On the contrary, the environment was better than Korea, which is hardly found. Ironic can only be expressed.

Pushing out the crappy sentiment to the corner of his thoughts, Han Woo-jin stared at an Australian player breathing on the court across the street.

'You're a rookie, but it's pretty It's a tennis powerhouse. '

The current score for the third round is 6-2, 3-0.

It was very good considering Hanwoo Jin, who had a perfect or close score in the previous two matches.

Oliver Hanson.

Like Han Woo-jin, he was a rookie who made his debut this year. Hanwoojin was ahead for several months at a time, but the difference between the months was not so large.

"Game 4! Oliver Serving Play! "

However, it was Hanwoojin's point of view that he did not recognize himself as a rookie.

Oliver and other rookies, or spectators Hanwoojin's skill was a monster level. On the rankings, he stayed in the 100th place in the second half, but if you only look at the skills were left in the top 100. More than just a normal challenger

It was hard to find a variable.

Sub's obvious hesitancy to return is hesitant. Oliver was self-extinguishing. The optimism that it could win anyway has long since been abandoned.

'You can't eat it, really.'

It was his skills in his own way. As any professional would do, Oliver from Australia, one of the countries hosting the four major tournaments, added even more. You can't be pushed like this in the Far East without any top rankers

The line was unthinkable.

Immediately after the start, even a few sub games could be thrown off for a while. By the way, the second set didn't get eaten as soon as the first set entered the second half.

It was the same now.

Paang!

Oliver inevitably tossed the ball as the referee tried to remind him. A 184cm physique jumped slightly over the court and swung the racket hard. The flexible arms like a whip were impressive.

But he knew. As soon as you practiced perfectly, this serve will return immediately.

Not surprisingly, Hanwoojin moved his feet to Oliver's serve, which was nearly 200 km long. Even the steep point that I got several times was the result of pouring it into agility. No matter how perfectly predicted, if the body can't follow, it's over.

Paang!

"Love Fifteen (0: 15)!"

The ball hit by a firing line flew in a similar orbit to the boomerang and beat Oliver's sideline. Oliver, who was completely on the other side, was too far to respond.

He finally gave up his score without using his hand.

Once a game has been flown, it is almost never overturned. It was even more so if the skill difference was clear. Han Woo-jin won the third round as well.

[Skill upgrade progress: 42%]

It was not a bad progress. The remaining game in the Keio Challenger tournament is twice in the semi-finals and finals. It seemed hard to fill the remaining 58% in two matches, but the goal of filling 100% before the quarter-finals of the Shenzhen Open seemed to be achievable.

That was enough. Hanwoojin is two stronger than those at the Mets Open.

* * *

In the semi-finals, which were rather easy than the quarter-finals, Han Woo-jin was able to achieve enormous progress of 20%. Almost every serve has a service ace. He kicked his tongue while watching his opponent go down the court with a completely frozen face.

Japan had similar symptoms to Korea. What was called the Hungry spirit, desperate determination was not enough.

The opponent couldn't even get a ball that Hanwoojin could catch. If I had run over all the time and didn't mind the form, I would have been able to win some games.

'To be pathetic.'

I'd rather be able to convince you if you weren't good enough. Are you insane because you're not ready to run because you're not motivated?

Han Woo-jin was displeased with the appearance of his opponent Ishihara, who met in the first round. He reaffirmed his progress and decided to reverse his feelings.

"62%… "

The figures exceeding half the level reminded me a bit. Han Woo-jin rolled his head to watch the audience start to disperse after two games.

The final was now a problem.

The final opponent was the Japanese ranker in the early 200th place as expected before participating. I didn't think he was going to lose, but it was a completely different story about whether he could easily win a service ace.

'I was kind of tired.'

It was lighter than the sparrows, but the pressure to pick up the service ace was a kind of pressure. Even the ball, which would have been hit more normally, would be overpowered and beaten. Han Woo-jin is starting to stir

The condition was checked by rubbing the right forearm.

It is not an injury. Can you move smoothly for an hour or two? The cumulative fatigue, however, was not something that could be identified by this acceleration. It's stressful inflammation that doesn't know when it's going to burst like a time bomb.

There was a voice coming from him who was deeply penetrated. It was the voice of Shin Se-yeon, who had been refrained from talking about Hanwoojin for a while.

"You look a lot tired, are you okay?"

"Tired?"

I thought that was the case. Didn't you know that you were excited to know? Only after listening to her words did Han understand the heavy displeasure remaining in her body.

"… I think so. I'm a little tired. "

Although I have a long career, I have never run this season. The harsh schedule that followed the race, and then the race, was damaging to the mind as well as the body.

I did it. Only thinking about taking down the opponent is living day by day.

Emotion, after all, is a consumable item. Even the hatred of being so strong melts helplessly in the face of time, but it was hard to keep the schedule while keeping the initials.

'I should get some rest after the Tokyo opening.'

Hanwoojin rushed the eyelids by rubbing a cold towel on his forehead. After the end of tomorrow, the Shenzhen Open waited, and after the successful completion, the Tokyo Open awaited.

It was not yet time to stop.
