Chapter 23 – Raise the ‘Scouter’ Level.
#
Today’s training with Shin Hye-yeon was also successful.
Most of the time, it was me who led the training.
Because she had a lot of experience, Shin Hye-yeon couldn’t have known more than me.
It’s just that Hyeyeon Shin knew quite a bit about new techniques that I couldn’t have imagined.
She asked and she said she had been learning when she was in France.
When she was in high school, she wouldn’t have had a chance to learn combat skills, so everything she learned about her swordsmanship must have come from the French academy.
I was greatly inspired by her swordsmanship.
I could see that it was a high-class technology that I had never experienced in Korea, at least at my level.
So, I was more curious.
Who is Shin Hye-yeon’s father’s acquaintance, the director of the French Academy?
She thought that it was not normal for her to teach a girl who had just graduated from high school ‘swordsmanship’.
The fact that she generously handed down advanced techniques, including ‘sword skills’, meant that Shin Hye-yeon recognized her potential.
It’s surprisingly not an easy task.
To find out how much the Hunter will grow and develop.
Usually, it is easy to judge just by looking at the present appearance.
There were many factors to consider in order to judge the potential.
I also had a lot of experience participating in interviews to select new members of the guild, and even though I thought I was carefully selected, there were many times when I realized that the decision was wrong.
On the contrary, she saw quite a few hunters who were not accepted because she judged that they had no prospects, but were active in other guilds.
It was difficult to see through Hunter’s future.
‘That’s why he’s acting as the director of a famous academy.’
Anyway, it was very meaningful to see Shin Hye-yeon’s skills acquired in France with my own eyes.
Now I’m twenty years old too.
The meaning was completely different from encountering them at the age of forty.
We practiced until it was completely dark outside.
I stopped practicing because I was simply too hungry.
We were so engrossed in training that we even forgot hunger.
‘Hmm…’
I checked the condition of my muscles while taking a shower.
I was definitely overdoing it today.
I wasn’t currently a B-class, nor was I a hunter with more than 15 years of experience.
My body couldn’t keep up with the intensive training for more than 6 hours.
In other words, I trained to the limit, so I was very satisfied.
All that was left was to eat, go back, take the ‘recovery potion’, and rest.
I have to buy food on the way home.
All that late-night snacking would have been used for excess recovery.
‘Training effect quadrupled!’
It was a huge deal.
Moreover, he trained alone with Hunter, who was evaluated to be equivalent to S-class in the future.
I realized that I was living a completely different life from my previous life.
I changed my clothes and left the training room.
Shin Hye-yeon is a woman, so it would take her more time.
I took two cans from the vending machine, put one in my pocket, and drank the other right away.
After waiting for a while, Shin Hye-yeon came out.
I was about to hand over the canned beverage in my pocket, but before that, her serious expression caught my eye.
“What’s going on?”
“That, that…”
Shin Hye-yeon tried to say something, but she swallowed it inside.
Seeing that she struggled to talk, she wondered if it was a family problem.
If so, don’t get too deeply involved.
“If there is something urgent, go back first. I will go home separately.”
“Sorry.”
I gave her her ‘recovery potion’ that I had made before she forgot.
Shin Hye-yeon took it seriously.
“Thank you, really.”
“What. Don’t mind me and go in quickly.”
“Yes, I will contact you.”
Shin Hye-yeon put her cellphone to her ear and disappeared.
She didn’t know what was going on, but she did if she didn’t have a big problem with her.
It was a problem that I couldn’t intervene anyway, so this was all I could hope for.
“…”
I was unbearably hungry.
I thought it would be hard to go home because I was so hungry.
I looked around.
This place was mostly familiar to me.
Even though the scenery was very different from 20 years later, the guild office I belonged to was not far from here.
A densely populated area of guild offices.
It was still less, but this was an area where hunters were concentrated.
That’s why there are training facilities like this.
‘Do you still want to stay?’
There was a Korean restaurant near here that I often went to.
Today, I couldn’t stand it. I pulled kimchi stew.

“Seulgi, what’s going on? Mother passed out!”
Shin Hye-yeon called Lee Seul-gi with a worried voice.
– Heukheuk, Hyeyeon… What should I do? No money, no money…
“What does money matter? It’s important for mother to get surgery and get well soon! How much are you lacking? I will help if I can.”
– But… I even said such a harsh thing to you… I’m sorry, how can you do that~
“Misunderstanding… Hey. Sunggyu is your boyfriend. We just practiced together.”
– Training? Could it be that we were together today?
“Yes…”
– Whoa… Okay. Anyway, I said I could help, right?
“Yeah, how much do you need? I will provide as much as I can.”
– 1 million.
“Huh?”
Shin Hye-yeon was surprised by the amount she heard over the phone.
Even so, it was not easy to raise money of 100 million as a college student.
“100 million…?”
– Yeah, can’t you? Your car is a ferrari How can I not use that as collateral?
“The car is in my father’s name. And it will take time to raise money for it. All I can do right now is…”
Shin Hye-yeon thought.
Cash and things you can dispose of right away.
“I think I can get 5,50 million won by tomorrow.”
– Five thousand… Yes, I can’t help it. Could you send that to me too?
“Okay. But where is the hospital? I want to visit my mother. You won’t be too hard I will stay with you.”
– Oh, no. Mom can’t visit me right now. I’m out of my mind too. Anyway, five thousand as promised. Be sure to send some by tomorrow! Understand?
The phone is disconnected.
Shin Hye-yeon let out a deep sigh.
Her mother collapsed.
How much does it hurt
Suddenly, I remembered what had happened last night.
It didn’t look good as she was shown in scenes with her friend’s boyfriend no matter what.
If she had changed her position, she would have been very hurt herself.
‘It’s natural to misunderstand.’
And kiss…
It was an ecstasy, and it was a moment that felt like a blessing.
But…
‘This isn’t it.’
Shin Hye-yeon captured her heart.
She didn’t know why Seong-gyu Choi was being nice to her all of a sudden, but she couldn’t hurt Seul-gi Lee anyway.
She was a friend of hers for a long time and is deeply saddened by her mother.
A friend shouldn’t betray at a moment like this.
Shin Hye-yeon felt the sadness spreading in her heart.
However, she soon shook her head vigorously, and she moved to raise 50 million won, which she was supposed to send to Seulgi Lee by tomorrow.

“Kyaaa~~”
I admired the taste of kimchi jjigae after a long time.
After getting married, she did not come to this store often.
After becoming a guild executive, he went to a more luxurious restaurant for dinner.
As soon as the kimchi jjigae went down my throat, I literally felt like I was going to live.
I frantically ate two servings of kimchi stew and rang the bell.
“My aunt~ Just give me two more servings of kimchi stew~”
“Oh my, did you eat that much?”
The owner of the restaurant, who looked familiar, turned to me and smiled.
It’s the first time I’ve seen it in this life, but I’ve seen it often in previous lives.
Like me, 20 years younger.
That fact made me proud.
The owner’s lady glanced this way and she said.
“Looking at his size, I should eat that much. Do you want to eat kimchi pancake? I’ll give it as a service.”
“Thank you!”
It is also a shop full of affection.
I thought I would be a regular at this store again in this lifetime.
【The sub quest has been opened.】
【It is not possible to arbitrarily decide whether or not to accept a sub-quest.】
================================
Title: Show me you
Goal: Raise the level of the skill ‘Scouter’.
Deadline: 24 hours
Difficulty: E
Success Reward: Double Level Up
Failure Penalty:-
=================================
“Huh?”
It was the third sub-quest.
Sub quests always appeared at unexpected moments.
I read it carefully.
‘Raise the scouter level?’
Certainly, ‘Scouter’ was a useful skill.
Today I thought the ability of the director of the French Academy was great.
Recognizing Shin Hye-yeon’s potential and generously passing on her skills.
Even if the type was a little different, if I raised the ‘Scouter’ level, I would be able to easily get a lot of information from other hunters.
It was difficult to even gauge how much merit this would bring to my hunter life.
‘But how…?’
How do you level up?
There must have been a reason why this quest suddenly came to mind.
“Ah…”
As I watched more and more people start to fill the restaurant, I realized how.
He’s kinda stupid isn’t, or maybe he have short memory where he forget after the system tell him
