Chapter 18 – 18. Written Test
18. Written test
‘There are a lot of humans like garbage.’
I took a quick glance around. About 300 people were sitting in the spacious room.
There are about 100 rooms like this, and in addition, rooms without chairs or desks are also renovated, so it turns out that at least 30,000 people are taking the test this time.
30,000 people flocked to the Hunter Exam, it’s literally the end of the world.
Besides, the Hunter exam wasn’t the only one to see here. On the other side of Seoul, the Hunter Association’s branch in Busan and the Association’s branch in Gwangju take the exam on the same day.
There were also people who took the test there, so it could be seen that at least 50,000 people took the Hunter test today.
In fact, it is said that about 50,000 people applied last year.
I sat down while looking at my admission ticket. Even with about 30 minutes left, there were hardly any empty seats. Everyone knew that if you were late, you would be screwed, so I came in advance.
But everywhere you go, there are amsaeng. There were also several empty seats. Some will be filled in 30 minutes, some will not be filled even after 30 minutes. It is the seat of imaginary people.
Dang, dang, dang.
As expected, until the bell rang, about 5 seats remained empty. Shortly after the bell rang, supervisors in suits entered. Appearing to be incumbent hunters, they put a bunch of test papers on the podium.
“Hey, nice to meet you. Before starting the exam, I will briefly tell you about the precautions first.”
It was obvious things like not cheating or turning off your cell phone, so I listened to it with one ear and let it go with the other. I turned off my phone and put it roughly in my bag. Then, turning the pen, I waited for the test paper to arrive.
‘Hmm, where should I solve it?’
The Hunter exam is divided into two parts, a written test and a practical test. First, take a written test in the morning, eat lunch, and take a practical test.
If either of the two fails to pass the threshold, it is dropped as it is. I had no choice but to wait for the next test.
Even so, in fact, the written test was no different from giving it away. It was because even a middle school student could solve it if they had at least some common sense and personality.
I’ve never really studied, but I’m a person who works at the Hunter Gallery and the Porter Gallery for 6 hours a day. There was nothing to be afraid of.
The exam started, and I quickly unfolded the exam paper. I thought I would quickly unpack it and go out and play.
[Problem 1.]
– Choose the year in which the cataclysm occurred.
1) 1940
2) 1950
3) 1960
4) 1970
5) 1980
‘Hmm…;
What was it
No, what does this have to do with Hunter? If you don’t know the cataclysm date, you can’t catch monsters?
I got stuck at 1st. I’m sure I heard it when I was in school, but I can’t remember it well. I remember that it was roughly after the industrialization of Korea… What year was industrialization?
I’ve been digging my memory. Then it dawned on me that it was roughly 70 years after the Cataclysm.
Because the year is 2032…
‘It’s 1960. It’s easy.’
I checked 3 times and moved on.
I looked at my watch once. It was 10:50. Since the test started at 10:40, it took 10 minutes to solve number 1.
But there was no problem. There was still 1 hour and 10 minutes left. Since the total number of questions is 50, it seemed that I could pass easily if I solved the remaining questions one at a time.
[Problem 2.]
– Choose one of the followings that is not the general structure of a dungeon as defined by the World Hero Association.
1) tower type
2) open
3) maze type
4) cross
5) My type
The next problem was fucking easy. I checked number 5 without hesitation and moved on.
‘Fuck my hyung~. What kind of dungeon is Menaldo?’
After that, the problem continued to be solved. Occasionally, the content I saw at the Hunter Gallery also came out. If this is the case, passing the written test seemed to be easy.
‘It’s good that you didn’t study.’
I roughly checked my OMR card and submitted it to the supervisor. And I went out first before the exam time was over.

“Whoa.”
So Eun-byeol took a deep breath and relaxed her tense body. Although I studied hard, I was still anxious.
‘But even if I fail the written test, I can take it again soon.’
But it wasn’t that much of a burden. Unlike the practical test, it was not difficult to take the written test again even if I failed.
I thought so and took care of my heart. I thought it was nothing, so my trembling heart seemed to calm down quite a bit.
“Okay then, take the test paper, and the test time is 1 hour and 20 minutes until 12:00. You can go first if you have finished the questions before 12:00, but you know that it is impossible to take the test after 12:00, right?”
I unfolded the test papers under the guidance of the supervisor. And I quickly scanned it with my eyes. Fortunately, it was a problem that almost everyone knew about.
[Problem 1.]
– Choose the year in which the cataclysm occurred.
It was a simple common sense question. It’s been a little over 60 years since the cataclysm occurred this year, so the answer is 1970. It was 4 times.
Even the local kindergarteners know it.
So Eun-byul checked lightly and moved on to the next question. The next problem wasn’t too difficult either.
[Problem 2.]
– Choose one of the followings that is not the general structure of a dungeon as defined by the World Hero Association.
There were a total of five general structures of dungeons. There are tower type, maze type, field type, sealing type, and cage type.
Therefore, the answer is four crosses. It was so easy that I wondered if anyone could get this wrong.
So Eun-byeol continued to solve the problem. It was a little easy up to number 30, but the questions at the back were a bit confusing because of the somewhat specialized issues related to the Hunter Special Law, Association Articles, Mana Stone Engineering, and Magical Science.
Still, I was relieved because it looked like I would easily pass the pass cutoff of 60 points. In the first place, it was a test designed so that even middle school students could pass it, so in a way, it was even more strange that I couldn’t get past 60 points.
‘I’ll have to run away before that bastard comes out.’
So Eun-byeol gave out the answer sheet and quickly left. Anyway, if Lee Hyun sent a KakaoTalk or phone call, he was in a position where he had to come back without saying anything, but it was enough if he didn’t look at his phone.
She ran far away from Lee Hyun. She wanted to be at ease, even during lunchtime.
She pulled out her phone to turn it off.
Then she saw what she couldn’t see.
[Caller: Master]
“Ah…”
As long as she saw Lee Hyun’s phone call, she had no other options. She answered the phone with a sad expression.
“Hello…”
***
“Let’s see, I wonder if Eunbyeol’s exam is over.”
I went out to the front door and called Eunbyul. Not long after, she answered her phone.
– Hello…
“Did you pass the test?”
– Yes…
A voice without power. Didn’t you do well on the test? I’ve seen it well, so I need to go and comfort him.
Eunbyeol seems to be sincere, but her brain doesn’t seem particularly good. She said that if she had good brains in the first place, she wouldn’t be able to attend the Ming Dynasty.
“Hehe, then come to the front door. Let me eat.”
– Yes…
She had to eat before the nearby restaurant was full. After waiting for about 3 minutes, she walked out with Eunbyul whimpering.
“Did you do well on the test?”
“Yes…”
“But why are you dying?”
“… Just.”
What do you eat for rice anyway? Since it’s exam day after all, shall we eat something expensive?
I walked down the street and looked around. I saw a sushi restaurant. After watching it, I was craving sushi.
Eating it for lunch was a bit cheesy, but it didn’t matter anyway since Eunbyeol was eating with money. She even ordered udon to eat.
“Let’s eat sushi.”
Eunbyul nodded her head.
I slurped up the 20,000 won sushi set and even the udon noodles. I could see Eunbyeol’s expression rotting when I was paying the bill.
I felt sorry for Pyunsuni because it was a bit of a big expense, but that trivial feeling soon disappeared. After all, if she becomes a hunter, this won’t be a big deal. It was no different from borrowing money from Eunbyeol in the future.
By the way, the triangle in my heart has long since worn out. If I had any conscience left, I would have dropped out of the 1000s long ago and helped her father with her work..
I will also call the ship. I enjoyed going on a Gangnam date with Eunbyeol to help digest things. Girl friend… It was a bit unreasonable to say, but anyway, it was fun to go around with a girl. I live in my own way.
I wondered if this is why everyone has girlfriends and dates.
“Hehe, it’s already half past one. Let’s go back.’
“Yes.”
Eunbyeol also pouted her mouth at first, but later she just followed me around without saying anything. Knowing that she couldn’t get away with it anyway, she seemed determined to just have fun.
It seems that the teaching assistant is slowly taking over.
She seemed like a little more gaslighting would turn her into a pretty, obedient woman.
But then, I think her fun will be lost.
Eunbyul, who is obedient anyway, I am enjoying as a Constellation.
Well, does it matter anyway? Whether it’s an obedient Eunbyul or a rebellious Eunbyul, Eunbyul’s pussy will be chewy.
Eunbyeol and I went back to the Hunter Headquarters. Now it was time to take the practical exam.
