Chapter 598 – S-Class Hunter (7)
*
__Puddeuk. Puddeuk.
‘I let my guard down.’
There was something I forgot about raising my stats after a long time.
If you suddenly increase a large amount of stats, there will always be a backlash.
To be honest, I didn’t think there would be any more transformations, but it seems I was mistaken.
If you think about it, it’s hard to call it a complete transformation, but it’s still inevitable that changes will occur in the body.
‘Because of my son-in-law.’
It seems like the problem was that I uploaded it in a hurry because it was being scraped right in front of me.
__Ji-ing. Ji-ing.
When I checked my cell phone, which was ringing loudly, I saw a text message from my kids asking where I had gone.
He seemed worried because he didn’t come back after saying he was going to the bathroom.
The big thing is that I didn’t expect it to take this long.
“Whoa.”
Well, it was a stat that had to be raised anyway.
Since the main quest is up, I have to challenge myself to become an S-class hunter, but honestly, it would be unfair if I got cut at the entrance.
With trembling hands, I replied to the text message that something unexpected had happened and waited for the body reorganization to be completed.
At that moment, I heard a conversation coming from afar, as if someone had entered the bathroom.
“Tsk. “Is it right to retire when you get older?”
“Sir, someone will listen.”
“If you want to hear it, listen to it. Who will care about people who are in the end or people who have a bright future?”
“Haha.”
A unique tone of voice that made one feel irritated just by hearing it. Even without seeing the face, one could tell who the person was.
‘It’s me. ‘Isn’t this bastard going home?’
The person who finished the test a long time ago waited for a long time and hasn’t returned yet.
“So that means you’re still a cadet. “What can these guys who were protected by instructors do?”
It was easy to find out who he was shooting.
I think the person I mentioned at first was probably the old man who recommended me.
Isn’t that guy scared of you?
I think I could fold my spine about 4 times if I wanted to.
“I heard that there are some cadets who passed.”
“What? “Who?”
“I don’t know the details, but maybe it was Yoon Seo-ah? They say he is the head of the Korean Academy.”
“Ah. Yoon Seo Ah? Well… I only measured the amount of magic attribute. One or two people will stick around.”
Na Dae-nam, who was shocked by the news of Seo-ah’s acceptance, wondered how he would react if I also passed in the future.
“I didn’t think I would fail either, but you are amazing. “Senior.”
“Yes, that is the minimum condition. Just because you pass doesn’t mean you become an S-class hunter. “It means we are now at the starting point.”
Na Daenam’s condescending voice was not wrong.
It’s not the end when you get accepted, but it’s right to see it as just the beginning.
“However. Is it meaningful to evaluate it this way? Just because you have a lot of magical power doesn’t mean you’re necessarily strong.”
“Under. This bastard. “That’s why you can’t get promoted.”
“… “
“Don’t you know what a hunter’s rank means?”
“Isn’t it like a measure of strength? “Class B is stronger than Class C, and Class A is stronger than Class B.”
“Well, it’s not wrong. That’s not important. In the end, the level of a hunter is important in terms of whether they can hunt monsters of the same level.”
“But, senior. Aren’t there people among B-rank hunters who can hunt A-rank monsters?”
“How many of those guys do you think you can catch?”
“Yes?”
“You might be able to catch one or two. But do you think those guys can continue to hunt?”
“That must be difficult, right?”
“It’s all the same. Even if you are strong. “If you get tired without even catching a few, can you call that kid an S-class hunter?”
Wasn’t it just simple force to classify the classes?
Maybe it’s because I’ve never thought deeply about rank, but it was a meaningful interpretation.
I don’t know if it’s accurate.
“By the way, what smells like that when you eat it? Let’s get out as fast as we can.”
Na Daenam, who disappeared like that, gave me an unexpected gift, so I should return the same.
[Do you want to load save point?
*
Since I had just raised my stats, it still felt awkward to move my body.
It’s to the point where I wonder if I were to fight right now, my combat power would probably be lower than before I raised my stats.
But anyway, what is important in the measurement now is the amount of magic power within the magic heart, so it was not particularly important.
[Pass.
The notice had only two letters written on it, and I felt like it was missing something. I guess it was me.
I wanted to just raise the magic stat and be done with it, but if the balance was broken, that was also a problem, so there was nothing I could do.
No matter how much magical power you have, it is meaningless if you cannot handle it.
As I was standing still like that, Hyeji came towards me like before.
“Whoa. Did. Did you fall too? Are you okay? That can happen.”
“Has Hyeji failed?”
“Yes. Miss Minji and Miss Sua also failed… Passed?”
Hyeji, who casually came over and comforted me, started blinking when she saw my notice.
“How. Is this.”
I think Hyeji could pass if her magic level was just a little higher, but what can I do?
As I was chatting with Hyeji, I noticed Na Daenam coming towards me from afar.
I felt it today, but I don’t know why that guy is so interested in me.
“From the looks of it, it fell… ? What? A guy like you.”
Daenam, who came to enjoy tea bagging, saw my acceptance letter and his face was distorted.
The guy’s face immediately distorted, probably because he was so twisted after passing the test, and the crumpled face was more worth seeing than I expected.
“Please give it back.”
“No.”
I easily returned my notice from his hand.
At the same time, you shouldn’t forget to smile, right?
“Thank you very much.”
You are now the same competitor as me.
I could understand being upset in that guy’s situation.
If you look at it honestly, isn’t it true that a child who has only been awakened for a few years is now on an equal footing with him?
She must have been on active duty for ten years, but is she in the same position as someone who just joined as a cadet?
I had no idea how much his insides were bubbling.
Well, I’m an experienced hunter, but I couldn’t understand other people’s situations.
“… “
Suddenly, Na Daenam, who was grinding his teeth, had forgotten how to speak.
He opened and closed his mouth several times, as if he was so shocked that no words came out, and then disappeared without looking back.
They must have waited a long time to laugh at me, but instead they congratulated me on passing the exam.
“How could you pass.?”
“What’s the matter. “Shouldn’t you congratulate me if I passed?”
“Chu. Congratulations. But.”
“Kim Si-woo passed?”
Minji, who came late, accepted my acceptance letter and made a subtle expression.
A confused expression that seems envious, happy, but unable to be happy at all.
To be honest, Jeong Soo-ya, S rank was too much for me, but I don’t know if there would be a chance if there was a separate class for healers.
I guess he thought so too, but he didn’t look that disappointed about the results.
‘Hyeji was very disappointed.’
“But did Da-eun and Seo-ah go first?”
Before loading, I didn’t pay attention because I failed, so did you both go first?
“I went because the examiners called me.”
Are long-distance series evaluated separately?
The next test is in two days, and before that I have to deal with Minji and Hyeji, who look depressed.
*
Two days later, the number of people at the test site had decreased so much that it could not be compared to the number who were at the first test site.
Since it was measured in terms of magical power, it would be correct to say that everyone here is an A-rank or higher hunter.
I could feel that everyone was nervous.
‘There’s Jia, instructor Siyoung Kim, and that bastard.’
I made eye contact with instructor Kim Si-young, but I didn’t particularly approach this way.
I’m already looked down upon as a cadet, but if I approach the instructor here, it won’t look good in the eyes of others.
I felt strange trying to be alone among the veteran hunters leading Korea.
‘Seeing as Seo and Da-eun are not visible, it seems that the long-distance classes are evaluated separately.’
Are you planning to subdivide the grades?
Since I can’t know what the association thinks, it’s probably right to do as they’re told for now.
As I was waiting like that, an old man appeared with an unusually serious expression on his face.
Normally, he seems like a friendly grandfather, but in an event like this, he was showing off the dignity of an S-class hunter.
‘Ah. Should we call them SSS level hunters now?’
It seems like something is missing from before, but what can I do? If the World Hunter Association has decided that way, I have to adapt to it.
“It’s time. “I don’t think anyone will be late.”
Taesoo Choi’s voice seemed to hit my ears. I don’t know if it was because it contained magic, but there was something overwhelming.
“I think there might be some dissatisfaction with the standards. The first time is inevitable for anything. “Cluck.”
Taesoo Choi smiled leisurely, stood in front of the unusual-looking door, and began to operate the device.
Then, a door appeared where the inside could not be seen because the entrance was blocked with red magical power.
“In front of this gate, there is a space artificially created to resemble the Red Gate.”
Red Gate, an unknown space known to be the most dangerous of all gates.
Even though it was made artificially, everyone here looked nervous due to its notoriety.
“The magic attribute density inside this place is overwhelmingly higher than that of a typical gate. To put it simply, if an ordinary hunter enters, his body could be crushed to death.”
A place where you can die just by entering.
“If you want to give up, you can give up at any time. “You only have one life, so nothing good will come of being brave.”
Choi Tae-soo’s words sounded as if he could die. No one came with a light mind, but everyone stiffened when he said that their lives were at stake.
“Then follow me. “Cluck.”
Choi Tae-soo disappears inside the door like that.
Tae-soo Choi entered and the number above the door, which appeared to be a time limit, began to decrease.
“What. Has it started already?”
“Rain. Get out of the way! “I absolutely have to become an S-class hunter!”
Hunters who quickly enter the door during a sudden time limit, do they fail if they do not enter within the time limit?
I couldn’t fall behind, so I hurried inside the door.
