The device was basically a magical YouTube. At first he thought to join a martial arts class but after researching, he gave up.
Even the cheapest classes were worth at least a million won per month. The rise of Gates meant that such knowledge was highly sort after which also meant that the prices for it would rise quickly and continue to be rise.
Of course in exchange, it meant that a Martial Guild was formed. That simply meant that you know you are getting your money's worth each time you pay because the teacher is legit.
Fakes were ousted almost as soon as they created their dojos so it was sort of a good system but never in a million years would he pay that amount when all he had to do was pay around a thousand won or so for YouTube premium to access locked videos.
Uploading those videos to the device was no easy fit but his abilities were not known to be normal in the first place.
"I wonder how the Association would see this" Steve thought
Hiring Martial art masters were expensive so he believed that if he showed it to the Chairman, he would immediately buy it.
However, he also didn't want any smoke from the Martial Guild. It was a world wide organization and had several S-rank hunters and National-level Hunters amongst them.
The old man couldn't even be counted amongst the top ten S-rank in Korea and he was so much more powerful than him. He didn't want to find out how things were in the Martial Guild.
However, the temptation of money overcame all, as Steve immediately put a video call to the man.
"Mr. Gunhee?" Steve asked as soon as the call got through
"Yes, who's this?"
"Its me, the craftsman, Steve Grant, I have something I think your association would like, should I come over or you guys would come over… It's quite sensitive to me" Steve said in one full breath
"Steve?... That's right, you cheat, you still haven't created my sword, you took my money and ran"
"Ran?... You guys never contacted me after I left and besides did you expect me to carry that heavy thing as I went to the bank that day" Steve asked
For the next few minutes, the two argued back and forth for no good reason but even then the smile on his face showed that no malice was involved.
"Okay, enough of that, what exactly are you talking about?" the Chairman asked
"Okay, I'll put this on video call so you can see for yourself" Steve replied as he did as he said then placed the phone somewhere he could get a good view.
"Okay now what's it?... Since when did you have a twin?" the man asked noticing the extra him, that stood behind him.
"Its not a twin, it's a device, I created, in scientific terms, it's a hologram"
"You can create those?"
"Of course, it's still just manipulating light.. Anyway, it's not the main thing, that is, I call it 'Trainor', it does exactly as it's name says, it trains people in martial arts" Steve introduced
