Chapter 2455 – 2455. Seven Tiers

Recently, the whole world was in an uproar due to an awakened person. It was easy to hear the story of the awakened person on TV or the Internet.

-Appeared in the United States as an ordinary person who awakened at a late age in his 40s! What is the cause?!

Awakening usually occurs in the late teens, when physical growth has finished. Around 20 years old at the latest. Didn’t I just awaken in my early 20s?

Even if you are not awakened, you can find out whether you have awakened through a potential test.

In other words, all awakened people will be identified and be able to choose their career path before their 20s. Either become a monster hunter called Hunter or live as an ordinary person. He chooses the former these days. Although it is dangerous, it is safer than in the past, and the income level is higher than that of the average person. There is also the point that he can be admired by the public.

-How did Mason, who had no potential at all, awaken?

The fact that she awakened even though she had no potential was so unusual that even I was surprised. Even though I awakened later than others, I still had potential. Thanks to this, I was able to enter the Hunter Department at Kukcheon University without taking the CSAT.

‘Wasn’t there an error in the potential test? I think I heard that errors sometimes appear.’

Even if there is an error in the potential test, it doesn’t matter. If you have potential, it will eventually awaken around your 20s.

-Mason was an illegal porter. Even though she is not a hunter, she illegally forges her identity and enters the dungeon!

Of course, ordinary people cannot enter the dungeon. You can’t put ordinary people with no skills in a dungeon where even hunters can die if they are careless. It is natural to be controlled. This is why association employees control the dungeon entrance. To prevent the public from entering.

For that reason, all porters are also hunters. The F-level hunters, who are the lowest and have no background, work as porters. As he gains experience, he leaves his job as a porter and begins hunting monsters. That’s the standard route.

It’s not for nothing that there are separate hunter training centers and hunter academies. Everyone wants to learn combat skills as quickly as possible and become a hunter, not a porter.

-Mason said, “Three years ago, it became difficult to make a living, so I forged my identity and started working as a porter. It was during that time that I entered the dungeon. I went in 2–3 times a week, and at some point, I woke up. I believe that even ordinary people can become awakened if they enter the dungeon consistently. It is unfair for ordinary people to not be able to enter dungeons because they are dangerous. “The Hunter Association is taking away the opportunity for awakening from the public.”

It is not a story without any possibility.

There is more that is not revealed about the dungeon than is revealed. Most dungeons have a higher mana concentration than Earth. There is also a possibility that that mana awakened Mason.

‘The association is screwed.’

Most ordinary people envy hunters. In other words, it also meant being jealous.

He was just lucky enough to awaken, but he earns money more easily than others, uses mysterious and convenient abilities, and lives a long life without suffering from minor illnesses. It would be strange not to be jealous.

Until now, I just suppressed it because there was no way. Since the hunter was fighting for his life, he couldn’t be easily touched.

‘The story would be different if ordinary people could become awakened. I won’t criticize the hunters, but the hunter association that monopolizes the dungeon in the name of managing it will be criticized. Of course, ordinary people will also request permission to enter the dungeon.’

Hunter associations will refuse for safety reasons. An ordinary person could die even in an F-class dungeon. Hunters can escort ordinary people? What is Hunter doing? Does that make more money than hunting monsters? Who is responsible if an ordinary person dies?

‘It’s just me who thinks this, but other hunters must be shocked. It’s going to be noisy for a while.’

After experiencing various things, I could clearly see how things would turn out in the future.

Grrrr.

The smartphone vibrated. The sender is Kang Seok-su.

Master and representative of the Seven Tier Guild.

Of course, I was also a master of the Seven Tier Guild. Seventh Tier has a total of 7 guild masters, including Kang Seok-su and me. The representative of the Seventh Tier is decided every two years through voting and consensus among the masters.

“It’s me.”

-Still receiving phone calls strangely.

“That’s it. “What is your business?”

I have only put my name on the Seven Tier Guild.

I have no interest in guild activities. Guild support? What should I do when I have a life of entertainment? If I wanted my own faction, I would have created and operated my own guild.

The reason why I posted a famous score in the Seventh Tier is to block other guilds from bothering to appear.

-You know that Seven Tier is well known to the public. Taking advantage of the momentum, we recruited guild members this time.

“Is it a problem that no one wants to come to the Seventh Tier? Well, who would come to the beginner’s guild?”

-No, it’s the opposite. There was too much crowd. Even those who previously belonged to the top 10 guilds secretly told me that they wanted to come to the Seventh Tier.

“Okay? I don’t know what you believe and why you want to come to the Seventh Tier. Was your reputation that good?”

-What are you talking about. Because of you. S-class candidate Seong Yu-jin. If you become an S-class hunter like Han A-young, your leap to the Seventh Tier will be comparable to that of a teenage guild. Those who are tired of the existing teenage guild are looking forward to a new change called Seven Tier.

It is only natural that the stock price of Seven Tier goes up like crazy just because there is an S-class candidate. Although Seven Tier is not a listed company.

“Can’t we just accept everything?”

-I also want to do that, but I can’t manage it if I do that. And there is no way the teenage guild would sit still. I don’t really want to provoke the teenage guild right now.

“Hmm. So? “What is the real business?”

-This time, we decided to film a program introducing Seven Tier on cable TV. Of course, I want you to come out. I told you to row when the water comes in, so you have to row properly.

Do you think I would do something like that?

I was about to shoot but stopped.

“… Are there any celebrities coming too? Last time I watched a guild introduction broadcast, celebrities came and said, wow, that was awesome! I heard it’s a street.”

-They say celebrities are needed for the enjoyment and progress of the broadcast.

“Hmm. Appearing on broadcasts isn’t a bad thing either. “It’s not my first time appearing on TV.”

It was also a good thing for Seven Tiers growth. If I cooperate, Seven Tier will grow faster.

-Good. I will send you the schedule via message later. We can adjust it to fit your needs, so please contact us.

“Okay. By the way, Kang Seok-soo. “You probably haven’t changed your mind when you recruited me to the Seventh Tier, right?”

-Of course. The order formed by the existing 10 guilds. My goal is to destroy that order.

At first, I wasn’t very interested in Kang Seok-su’s goals. But as various things happen, the story changes.

“I’m starting to dislike the teenage guild, too. Especially the Suwol Guild. If I get the chance, I plan to destroy the Suwol guild.”

-… Suwol Guild? Ah, the words that come out from behind are not nice. But isn’t there Han A-young, an S-class hunter?

“Ayoung is on my side.”

-Then, well, it’s no big deal. If the Suwol Guild falls, the hunter world will also change significantly. But not right now. Seven Tier still lacks strength.

“It means that I will help you as long as you have enough strength.”

= Breaking the order of a teenage guild is the same as being hostile to a teenage guild. I have already made up my mind.

“What are the opinions of other guild masters?”

-What are you talking about? They became masters of the Seventh Tier because they also have the same goal. Just like you.

“…”

When it was proposed to me by Kang Seok-soo, I definitely heard its purpose. I didn’t think it was that important because I had full intentions of using Seven Tier.

I guess he became a seven-tier guild master because he agreed with Kang Seok-soo, unlike me, who is half-hearted about other guild masters.

I changed my mind for no reason.

“How is Jeongmi?”

Yoo Jeong-mi.

Kang Seok-soo’s childhood friend and girlfriend. I had sex with Yoo Jeong-mi.

-We broke up.

Kang Seok-soo’s voice was gloomy.

“Oh, I see. I did not know. But why did you break up?”

-He said he found another person he likes.

“Hmm. You can’t believe they dumped Korea’s genius wizard. “Who on earth does Jeongmi like?”

-… Not a hunter. He is a black man on a business trip from a foreign company. He probably has some charm that I don’t know about.

Black?

I imagined what the charm of that black man would be. I felt sorry for Kang Seok-su for no reason.

“Uh, that. Cheer up.”

-Done. Me and Jeongmi are just not meant to be.

Even Korea’s genius wizards don’t seem to find dating easy.

The Seven Tier Guild headquarters was a large building in Gangnam, Seoul. From what I heard, it is said that most of the money Kang Seok-soo received from investors went into this.

Damn the money. You could say that, but the Hunter Guild has this kind of bravado that works quite well. Looking wealthy means there is a lot of support for hunters.

Although it was my first time here, it was quite crowded with people right from the first floor entrance. Since I entered through the back door rather than the front door, it was easy to avoid the crowds. As soon as the guard saw me, he immediately bowed his head and said hello.

“Welcome, Guild Master! “I heard you’re coming!”

“Hmm.”

I nodded solemnly.

‘Kang Seok-soo did a good job with his education. I like it.’

There were private offices for the guild master near the representative office. There is even an office named after me.

‘What. There’s only a desk and a chair inside. First, it was made to be plausible.’

Other guild masters’ offices were the same.

I opened the door and entered the representative office without knocking.

“It’s me.”

Kang Seok-soo was not very surprised. He is also a class A hunter. He must have had a feeling that I was snooping around the guild master’s office. If you didn’t know, you’d be disappointed.

“Okay. Thank you for coming as promised.”

“There were no other guild masters?”

“They are just as self-indulgent as you. Some people will come in the afternoon. Some of them can challenge you to spar. “If you refuse appropriately, he will leave.”

“It looks like there are some belligerent guys out there. But why is your face so dead?”

“… “When you come here, you probably know that the first floor is noisy.”

“Aren’t they from the broadcasting station? Today is the day to film the broadcast.”

“The problem is that it’s not just the people at the broadcasting station. Promising hunters from ordinary people and teenage guilds are here.”

“Did you come to mess with someone else’s guild? Let alone the teenage guild, why do ordinary people do it?”

“Do you know Mason? They gathered as the hypothesis that ordinary people could awaken in dungeons became known. They’re going to join the guild, so they’re asking you to help them awaken. “Other guilds are also having trouble with this problem.”

“What you’re saying is that they are making a big fuss to accept them. But what about a hypothesis? Hasn’t it already been proven?”

“Except for Masons, there are no cases of ordinary people awakening in a dungeon. It’s a hypothesis because it hasn’t been proven. More important than that are the guys from the teenage guild. “These guys are 100% going to pick a fight with you when the cameras are rolling.”

“To me? These guys are cowards and have lost their heads. “It must have already been known that I am an S-class candidate.”

“Because he is an S-class candidate. Because it’s not S-class yet. Wasn’t it recently that he became A-level? They are trying to humiliate us through sparring under the pretext of exchange. “If you step down, you will be called a coward.”

It is a blow to Seven Tiers image. If you are embarrassed, your popularity will naturally decrease.

“It’s petty for a teenage guild to do this.”

“In other words, this is the only thing you can do. “You are paying attention not only to the Korean Hunter Association, but also to the World Hunter Association.”

“I’m sure you’re not trying to stop me, right?”

“No. “I want them to be destroyed as thoroughly as possible.”

“That’s my specialty.”

I wasn’t confident that I would lose to people who weren’t even S-class.
