Chapter 100
Chapter 100 - Upcoming Hunter Exam (3) The
Seoul branch of the Pro Hunter Association.
In this large space set aside as a press conference hall, numerous reporters gathered and chatted.
“Haa-am, the meeting is getting really long…”
“That’s right. Has it been almost a day since the meeting started?”
“maybe? Well, it's the first time in the history of pro hunters, so it's understandable, but...”
“I really... Who knew that it would end up like this because of one Kim Seo-joon?”
The reporters each waited for the association's announcement with a laugh.
How much time had passed like that?
Click.
The door to the press conference room opened and someone entered the conference room.
It was none other than Lee Tae-beom, the head of the Pro Hunter Association.
And as if revealing how arduous the meeting process was, Lee Tae-beom's face was very dry.
Still, as if the meeting had come to an end, Lee Tae-bum had several pieces of paper in his hands that looked like announcements.
The reporters came to their senses and pressed the shutters of the cameras they were holding.
chump chump chump chump!!
Lee Tae-bum climbed onto the podium while cutting through the flashes that burst out without rest.
Then, after taking a quick look at the reporters gathered in the conference room, he slowly opened his mouth to the microphone in front of him.
“Sorry for making you wait so long.”
chump chump chump chump!!
“Is the meeting about the Pro Hunter exam over!”
“How is the pro hunter exam going this year!”
“Is Kim Seo-joon exempt from the pro hunter test!”
Along with camera flashes, questions poured in from among the reporters.
Lee Tae-bum put the paper he had brought in front of the podium and said.
“As our association is fully aware of the concerns of the people, we have been meeting day and night to resolve them.”
Lee Tae-bum paused for a moment before continuing.
“First of all, we considered waiving the pro-hunter exam as the top priority for the student. The pro hunter test is a nationally recognized test to the last. There was a preferential issue that went against the people’s purpose of equity.”
“Of course, I showed outstanding aspects in various competitions, but this was an act based on private interests, not public interests, and therefore it was concluded that preferential treatment for national examinations could not be applied.”
“There was also an opinion that a separate test should be applied only to the students concerned. However, the reverse discriminatory factor could not be overlooked, and the problem of imposing an excessive burden on those who were still students could not be overlooked.”
“However, it is clear that there are clearly problems that cannot be considered in order to proceed with the pro hunter test as it is for the sake of fairness.”
“So, after a long meeting, we, the Pro Hunter Association, would like to inform you that there are some changes to this Pro Hunter exam.”
Lee Tae-beom lowered his eyes slightly and looked at the paper he had just put down in front of the podium.
“First, this year’s Pro Hunter test is conducted in an absolute rather than relative evaluation.”
chump chump chump chump!!
“The reason why this problem arose is because of the method of the pro hunter test that evaluates opponents. This was to divide the initial pro hunter ranks through test scores, but it was judged to be an inevitable situation to address the seriousness of the current situation.”
Lee Tae-bum continued to speak.
“The difficulty of the second test is greatly increased.”
chump chump chump chump!!
“If the absolute evaluation method is applied, a situation may arise where perfect scorers can appear one after another. Therefore, difficulties in not being able to divide the initial pro hunter grades through test scores may also arise.”
“So, we plan to adjust the problem by significantly increasing the difficulty of this Pro Hunter exam.”
Having said this, Lee Tae-bum paused for a moment and slowly looked around the conference room.
It was a gesture to ask any questions.
“I am Reporter Hwang Dong-soo of the Hunter Newspaper!”
Sure enough, one of the reporters raised his hand and shouted.
Lee Tae-bum pointed with his finger at the reporter who raised his hand.
“You said that the difficulty level of the exam would be greatly increased. How much is that?”
Lee Tae-bum nodded slightly and said.
“I plan to make sure there is not a single perfect scorer.”
“Does that mean... the same goes for Kim Seo-joon?”
“I think so.”
buzz buzz.
At Lee Tae-beom's determined words, the conference hall started to stir.
That's because even Kim Seo-jun couldn't get a perfect score, which meant that the level of difficulty was beyond imagination.
“Then isn’t the difficulty of the test too difficult? If this is the case, I don’t think there is any reason to change it to an absolute evaluation.”
“you're right. Isn’t this just a test for the sake of testing?”
“You said it was fairness for the people, but in the end, isn’t it the same as downgrading?”
The conference hall was agitated and started to shake.
‘Haa...'
Lee Tae-bum let out a deep sigh at the sight of such a scene at the conference room.
It was because Lee Tae-bum also knew that this method was not without problems.
To be honest, no matter what you say about fairness, it means that in the end, the way of the national exam has changed because of one Kim Seo-joon.
Besides, as the reporters questioned, it was absolutely right to give him a professional hunter license as a preferential treatment in this situation.
It was the same with Lee Tae-bum's thoughts, and he was originally going to do that.
‘Damn the big guilds...'
But I couldn't do that because the big guilds got up.
Of course, Lee Tae-beom was not in a position to notice anyone as the head of the professional hunter association.
However, they could not ignore the cartel of large guilds.
There were no professional hunters in Korea who did not pay attention to them unless they were heroes of cataclysm.
And the reason they got up was simple.
If you just give Kim Seo-joon a professional hunter license, of course you have to give him an A-class hunter license.
However, if you took the pro hunter test, you had to meet the corresponding regulations to get an A-class hunter license.
“If there is no perfect scorer, what will become of this year’s A-level professional hunter?”
In the original rule, only those with perfect scores could receive A-rank hunters.
And in the existing relative evaluation method, 1st place is always 100 points.
However, in the absolute evaluation, 1st place did not mean perfect score.
So naturally, Lee Tae-bum wanted to change that rule as well.
“Without a perfect scorer, there is no A-rank pro hunter this year.”
However, even this was impossible due to the enormous lobby of a large guild.
buzz buzz.
Then, beyond the fuss, a commotion began.
‘I never thought it would come out like this.'
The ulterior motive of the large guild was obvious to Lee Tae-bum.
Leaving aside everything else, it is possible to create a guild starting with an A-level professional hunter.
So, in the pro hunter test, Kim Seo-joon is not allowed to receive the A-class hunter license.
By doing so, he was planning to prevent Kim Seo-joon from establishing a guild after the pro hunter test.
So, the plan to attract them to their guild.
Even if they couldn't attract them, they couldn't create a guild, so it was a shallow trick to maintain the cartel.
‘Crazy bastards.'
Lee Tae-bum knew very well how stupid and stupid it was and how inferior it was.
they don't know
Kim Seo-joon is a huge dragon they cannot bear.
To be honest, how could Lee Tae-beom change the A-rank hunter rule?
However, Lee Tae-bum deliberately did not do that.
It was because Lee Tae-beom knew well that no tricks would work on Kim Seo-joon anyway.
Besides, to be honest, I was so disgusted with their slang that I wanted to see Kim Seo-joon smash it.
so.
“Instead, this year, A-rank hunters will be given priority to dungeon raids for the next five years.”
Rather, using him as an excuse, he turned to giving preferential treatment to Kim Seo-joon.
‘I thought I would be able to reign on the throne forever...'
Those who reign over the professional hunter world while maintaining the cartel for decades.
A group of people who are thereby rotting and making the world of pro hunters sick.
Lee Tae-bum planned to take this opportunity to overthrow the cartel.
The starting point is none other than Kim Seo-joon.
The moment when Kim Seo-joon enters the pro hunter world.
Korea will enter a new era.
Perhaps, not only in Korea, but also in the world, a great change might occur.
So Lee Tae-bum decided to give Kim Seo-joon more strength this time.
Kim Seo-joon's skills are already sufficient. The background is good enough.
Then, what Kim Seo-joon needs is none other than public opinion.
“In addition, we have decided to open this Pro Hunter test to the public.”
chum chum chum chum chum chum chum!!!!
chum chum chum chum chum chum chum!!!!
Korean society literally started to explode.
#
Late night.
After leaving Sega, Seoyoon headed straight to Dream Academy.
There was no time to relax, but it was because I had to tell him about the changed pro hunter test method.
Of course, the Korean society was so noisy that it was on the verge of exploding.
More than anything else, she had to say that she wouldn't be able to come to the academy for a while, so Seoyoon moved briskly.
The academy arrived like that.
“ah! Seoyoon is here.”
The first thing Seojun found and welcomed Seoyoon.
Seoyoon also smiled happily, but tilted her head at something strange.
Unsurprisingly, in a corner over there, someone familiar was with Suyeon.
Aaaaaaaang!
“It’s powerful, but it’s too linear. What kind of idiot would just take a hit like this?”
“Oh, then how about lowering the power and mixing in an anomaly?”
“Try it.”
Seoyoon asked Seojun who was approaching.
“yes. But what is this?”
“Oh, that's it.”
Seo-joon smiled and explained to Seo-yoon everything about Lee Ha-yoon and what had happened.
“I guess that happened.”
Seoyoon nodded and looked at Lee Ha-yoon.
And Lee Ha-yoon, who discovered such a Seo-yoon, suddenly began to take on a bright color on her face.
Then, when I was slowly approaching.
“hey. You, Soo-yeon, come and help me. Let me talk to Seoyoon-ssi for a moment.”
“......”
Lee Ha-yoon hesitated as if he had something to say.
However, when Seo-jun frowned, Lee Ha-yoon lowered his gaze again and said.
“Ah Okay. You can just do it...”
Then he turned his back and started helping Soo-yeon with her training.
Seoyoon said with a smile.
“I guess you’ve already adapted to it?”
“Adaptation? He still has a long way to go to come to his senses.”
Seoyoon looked at Lee Ha-yoon, who helped Soo-yeon with her training, and said.
“Maybe it was because the people around me kept raising me up. No matter what I did, they covered me, so I didn't know it was wrong. That’s how it piled up and piled up to become that kind of personality.”
At Seoyoon's words, Seojun looked at Lee Ha-yoon once more.
Startle!
Then Lee Ha-yoon, who was glancing at Seo-joon, trembled as soon as Seo-joon's eyes met.
Seo-jun let out a deep sigh and Seo-yoon burst into laughter at the sight of the two of them.
“Still, nature itself doesn’t seem that bad, does it?”
Seojun shook his head.
“Rather than that, did you finish all the things you went to?”
“Oh, that's...”
Seoyoon was speechless, and it was only then that Seoyoon could find that Seoyoon's face was quite damaged.
The long, black hair was crumbly, and the visible skin was engraved with scars.
However, the obsidian-like eyes were shining more than ever.
“We'll talk about that a little later. Did you know that the Pro Hunter exam has changed?”
“yes? The Pro Hunter exam has changed?”
Seoyoon told me in detail about the changed professional hunter test as if she knew it.
After such a long story.
“Ah...”
Seojun nodded as if he understood.
Seoyoon looked at Seojun and slowly opened her mouth.
“And I… I don’t think I’ll be able to come to the academy often until the pro hunter exam.”
“yes? You say you can't come?”
“I would stop by sometimes. I probably won't be able to come.”
“Why... did you do that?”
Seo-jun asked carefully, but Seo-yoon only smiled and did not answer.
“Anyway, there won’t be any competitions Seo-jun can participate in until the pro-hunter exam, so there won’t be any major inconvenience.”
“What do you mean?”
Then Seoyoon opened her eyes in surprise as if she didn't know.
“Most of the events that were planned have been canceled. What remains are competitions that the 1st division academy cannot participate in.”
So, even in the first division, there was no tournament that Dream Academy, which is considered to be the best in the league, could participate in.
The justification was that the pro hunter test was not far away, so I would focus on that.
“But in reality, it’s because of matchmaking.”
“How are you?”
Seoyoon answered with a soft smile.
“Anyway, the winner is Kim Seo-joon.”
That was a word that was floating around in the community as the events of the exchange battle spread out in waves.
And if you look at Seo-joon's actions so far, it's obvious that he will only participate in the tournament after taking the prize money.
As a result, the organizers of the tournament said that the pro hunter exam would be imminent.
Rather, I was in a position to give up one year and focus on the next year.
After this year, Kim Seo-joon will move on to the professional hunter world.
“......”
“You did it in moderation, didn’t you?”
Seoyoon suppressed her laughter and said.
However, Seo-joon's expression, which continued to be dumbfounded, eventually burst into laughter.
Whatever he said, the truth is that Seo-joon didn't intend to go to the tournament anymore.
Unless it was a big competition like an exchange match, the prize money for winning the academy competition was not much.
Of course, it was not a small amount of money.
However, the money demanded from Seo-jun could not be covered with the prize money of the tournament.
Above all, Seo-joon didn't have much regret because money was not urgent right now.
Seo-jun slowly raised his gaze and looked at Seo-yoon.
And Seoyoon also looked at Seojun.
Seoyoon said that she wouldn't be able to come to the academy often until the pro hunter exam.
So, in fact, the relationship with Seoyoon had to end here.
Starting from this conversation, he couldn't see Seoyoon like before.
When the professional hunter test begins like that, this short relationship reaches its end.
When the relationship between the two first began.
Seoyoon wants to create the world's best academy through Seojun.
Seo-jun wants to become the world's best hunter through Seo-yoon.
The story of the two began through the same yet different goals.
And now.
Seoyoon beat Korea's three major academies and became the director of Korea's first academy.
Seo-joon became an irregular that no one in the class could touch.
A lot of events, a lot of things.
There were many memories that were made intertwined.
And the story of just the two of them has just reached the end.
Like that, Seojun and Seoyoon stood at the end of the story and looked at each other.
I had a lot to say. But I didn't have the courage to do it.
There were many things I wanted to say. However, I couldn't open my mouth.
in that complicated atmosphere.
“Hey, Mr. Seoyoon.”
It was none other than Seojun who spoke first.
Seo-joon hesitated for a moment and then spat out his words.
“Even if I become a pro hunter, can I still come to Dream Academy?”
Seojun scratched the back of his head as if embarrassed.
And, as if making excuses, he kept repeating his words.
“Even if I become a pro hunter, I still have to train, but as you know, my house is small. Because there is no place to train properly. And again…”
Although there were many incidents.
Seo-joon hasn't changed at all since the first time I saw him.
To be honest, Seo-joon was a person who could be treated the best wherever he went.
Seo-joon's skills were truly unapproachable, and love calls from large guilds in Korea were already pouring in.
It was only a matter of time before it expanded beyond Korea to the world.
“Something is comfortable here and...”
Seoyoon could feel a strange warmth rising from a corner of her chest.
Maybe that's why I thought that Seoyoon didn't even have the slightest regret about her choice.
“Actually, I also have something I want to tell you about that.”
Seoyoon continued to speak.
“I was going to tell you what it would be like if Dream Academy turned into a guild instead of an academy.”
“A guild?”
“yes. Since the scale is small, it should be called a raid team rather than a guild.”
On the other hand, Seo-jun is embarrassed by Seo-yoon's sudden proposal.
I couldn't immediately answer that question.
It was because he knew Seoyoon's dream better than anyone else.
And did he notice such a sign of Seo-joon?
Seoyoon answered without hesitation.
“When were you told that a job couldn’t be a dream?”
“Haha... did you remember that?”
Seoyoon said with a soft smile.
“There are conditions instead.”
Seeing Seojun tilting his head, Seoyoon replied.
“Seojun-ssi, please take charge of the guild.”
“yes? me?”
Seoyoon nodded.
“First of all, you can create a guild starting with an A-rank hunter. But as you know, my grade is B, right?”
“That's it...”
“As for the guild building, you can use the Dream Academy building here.”
Seojun had nothing to say.
And just then.
“What were you two talking about earlier?”
Min-yul approached the two, wondering if they were talking for a while.
Seoyoon briefly explained to Minyul what she had told Seojun.
OK.
“I agree!”
Minyul shouted with a smile.
“What are you in favor of?”
“Actually… I was going to talk about it too. But my sister already had a plan! Oh. Leader! will you accept me too? Aren't you abandoning me?”
“What nonsense are you talking about?”
And I wonder if I can't hold back my curiosity in such a fuss?
“What? What are you talking about?”
Soo-yeon slowly approached.
Seoyoon also gave a brief explanation to Suyeon.
OK.
“I agree! All in favor!”
Soo-yeon jumped and jumped in place and shouted.
“If the captain is the master, can I do a bugilma?”
“What are you talking about. Bugilma is, of course, Seoyoon’s sister!”
“Oh. Yes... Then what are we?”
“Let’s set positions one by one!”
At the same time, Min-yul and Su-yeon began to be suk-deok.
Looking at the two of them, Seoyoon said with a smile on her face.
“So Seo-jun, you should do well in the exam. Well… if it’s Seojun, there won’t be any big problems.”
Seo-jun had nothing to say, so he just stared at Seo-yoon in silence.
Seoyoon also looked at Seojun.
The brief relationship between the two has just reached its end.
But where is the end of the relationship?
“Shall I head the intelligence department? There is such a thing as obtaining information.”
“If my brother is the head of the information department, then I am... the head of the research institute?”
In the process, I met new people and created a new story.
The end of the relationship was neither the final nor the finale.
It just flows into a new beginning in contact with another life.
and.
“......”
Lee Ha-yoon felt left out.
#
Time passed really quickly.
And in those fast times, Dream Academy was having its own busy days.
“The concepts of Hwangeom and Transfiguration are clearly different! Dazzling opponents and ever-changing attacks. Keep in mind the difference between the two and act!”
“Ha!”
Seoyoon from the swordsman.
“The 4 elements of nature are sometimes... cool!”
“Master. Are you okay?”
“Don’t worry. It's just about time. Anyway, the 4 elements of nature are...”
Soo-yeon received from Maseong.
< Erasing the presence is the same as getting out of the opponent's cognitive ability. Therefore, by melting into the nature that the other person thinks naturally... >
“Oh...”
Min-yul from the ignorance.
And...
[Mana is the source of existence. So understanding mana means understanding the world after all. I hope you always keep that word in mind.]
T-ring!
< Merlin's lecture progress rate 100% >
Finally, along with Merlin's voice, a smartphone notification sound was heard.
And again.
T-ring!
< [If you learn mana, you can see the world.] You will fully acquire 'Insight [S]' by completing the lecture. >
Merlin's lecture has finally been completed.
It was thanks to the progress rate that started to rise rapidly after opening the triple battle and training mana.
Spaaaaaaaa!!
The bursting light soon began to capture Seo-jun's body.
“Um…what has changed?”
However, I didn't feel any particular difference.
It seems to be related to a certain concept called insight, but I felt like I should watch the epilogue lecture.
Before that, Seojun checked the progress of the lecture so far.
< Sakyamuni Lecture Progress 33.7% >
< Jecheondaeseong Lecture Progress 5.5% >
< Jangsambong Lecture Progress 61.9% > < Hercules Lecture Progress 74.7% >
< Lu Dongbin Lecture Progress 7.4% >
< Siegfried Lecture Progress 7.4% > A] Metamorphosis[A] Insight[S]}
Along with the 6 courses he took, the number of lectures he had already completed exceeded 3.
Compared to Seo-joon's level at the beginning, his growth is really ridiculous.
“It was good.”
Seojun clenched his fists.
At this level, no matter how difficult the difficulty is, you should be able to get a full score and an A-class hunter license.
The long-awaited pro hunter test was quickly approaching.
