From the moment we entered the waiting room, the meerkats were staring at us.

Various negative emotions such as jealousy, ridicule, and vigilance pass me by and I run into Han Yoo-jung.

As the second Lee Ji-ah, the first place that appeared like a comet fell. Currently, the people in the waiting room here are the most sensitive to the rumors about Han Yoo-jung.

A fallen number one is always in trouble.

[The exam will begin soon.]

Prospects are running out.

Han Yu, who had been sitting quietly, got up.

“Uncle, I will go.”

“Don’t be too nervous. cheer up.”

*

A month has passed since the second test was overturned by illegal lobbying. The controversy over Lee Ji-ah’s administration of retaliation was also raised.

If you look at it this way, I think the association will be absurd. Because I ate two rooms in a row by a young blue-eyed guy who worked part-time at a cafe. It’s illegal lobbying. I don’t know who did it.

The voices of disbelief were raised.

Small and medium-sized companies in the lower ranks, the general public who are interested in the activities of the association, etc.

It was a request for measures for the third test. The association, which had to prove transparency, hastily came up with an improvement plan.

The exam is completely open.

I sat down and watched the inspectors check various items.

I must have become an audience member. Observational arts and such. A small exclamation bursts out when I feel like I should even clap.

I wondered if it was because of it, but it was because of a promising youngster named Park Kyung-soo. The guy who ate Han Yoo-jeong overturned and took first place.

Why are you so fussy?

I, who had been far away out of curiosity, lifted my head. The count is written in the upper right corner of the large screen. About 20 seconds have passed.

A large man was fighting a giant about 4 meters tall.

He moved vigorously with a huge sword, and even though the height difference was more than double, his strength was not pushed at all. Rather, it seems to be overwhelming.

At 45 seconds, the great sword pierced the giant’s eye. The Hunter, who had trampled on the corpse, wiped the blood from his forehead. With that, the exam was over. The screen went off and a voice came out.

[End of Test No. 27]

Managers are arguing loudly.

“He has good balance and good technique. If I gain more experience, I can take him to the current position right away.”

“If there are no surprises, the 1st place will go as it is, right?”

“What is a disaster, a natural disaster. how do i put this down? Looking at the speed, I think I’ll be ranked number 1 with no problem.”

It was a compliment. Seriously, he’s a strong first-place candidate for the Hunter exam in the second half of the year, but he can’t come out without compliments. It means that all the hunters in charge are below that prospect.

Even if I curse, I feel meaningless jealousy, and I lie down and spit.

While waiting for Han Yoo-jung’s turn with her arms folded, a dark shadow falls to the side. A prospect on the screen just passed me by.

Hunter gulps a bottle of water and asks the man who appears to be the manager.

“How are the test results now?”

“You are number one.”

“How about Han Yoo-jung? Did the test results come out?”

“no. Now let’s start slowly.”

Suddenly, he met the eyes of the Hunter.

The guy opens his eyes and gives a meaningful smile.

Why are you there? are you gay

“uh? This is Han Yoo-jung.”

He turned his head when someone muttered.

*

before the start of the exam.

Han Yoo-jeong, who was sitting on the chair, closed her eyes and took a small deep breath.

He glanced at the man sitting next to him, and looked at Han Yoo-jung’s jawline, which was protruding through her hair.

The love-comedy movie I saw three days ago was playing in my head.

He swallowed his saliva and opened his mouth carefully.

“there… .”

“Don’t talk to me because I’m going to break my concentration.”

“Yep.”

With a bloody momentum, the man responded coldly and turned his head. The love comedy that was playing in my head stopped. This time, the thriller movie I saw a week ago turned on.

It was about a murderer with an ax killing college students who came to play at the mountain lodge one by one. He felt like he was possessed by a crying college student because the phone line was cut off, and he was sweating profusely.

It was such a creepy look and atmosphere.

It doesn’t suit a pretty face.

Han Yoo-jeong, who was wheezing, quietly closed her eyes.

[#44 Han Yu-jeong, I will start the test.]

And when I opened my eyes again, it was a field in virtual reality.

The sharper she focused, the more she could feel the memories of her past come to life.

The murderous intent of the Thousand Killer is clearly something she hated and feared, but in battle, it becomes a more willing weapon than anything else.

As if there was noise, the polygons gathered and formed the shape of a giant. The one-eyed giant that appeared in the distance stands stupidly.

The timer moves.

[0:01]

Han Yoo-jung thought.

Come to think of it, how many seconds did Lee Ji-ah record in the 3rd test? I don’t remember well. Anyway, I think it was over 10 seconds.

[0:05]

[Action restrictions are lifted.]

[Processing the Cyclops… … .]

The voice guidance that I heard in my head passed over my ears.

The test started, and Han Yu-jeong jumped high.

and swung the sword.

*

A street performer holds out a card and says: Pick any card, and don’t tell him.

Then the audience will notice all of this. Somehow, the color and shape of the card the player chose will appear, woven out of nowhere.

There is such a thing as a person.

If you think it’s a little strange, everyone closes their mouths a little, shouts oh oh, a little, and claps their hands for saying you did well.

After all, it was happening at home. People are not so surprised by what happens within the imaginable range. Just a little fuss.

However, when faced with an unexpected result, people become speechless rather than fussy.

That was the atmosphere in the test room.

The stillness fell.

[Exam 44 ends.]

Only the inorganic mechanical voice is heard loudly.

Managers, prospects, and supervisors all stared blankly at the screen with hardened faces.

The first person to wake up to the sound of the machine was the manager sitting in the front row. He stuttered open his mouth.

“… … Bar, how many seconds was it?”

From that point on, the buzzing grew louder in an instant.

“Is it ten seconds? 11 seconds? It went by so quickly that I didn’t see it.”

“No, how did you just deal with that? did you cut it with a knife? fist? Has anyone seen you?”

“Where did you say Han Yoo-jung belonged to? Bastard?”

There was no clear answer. A collective monologue followed. Everyone was equally perplexed.

When Han Yoo-jeong was lit up in the first test, I was quite convinced.

Since you have to find and destroy the monsters yourself, if you have a certain amount of combat ability, a hunter with superior tracking skills has an advantage.

Although it is said to be 3,000 points of magic, it is only a symbolic meaning to the last. There were not many cases where it reached close to that score.

If Han Yu-jeong is a guide specialized in tracking ability, it is understandable that she failed the second test.

It depends to some extent on luck, but the strength of the body is also important. Guides specialized in tracking were forced to become burdens in the second test. The second half of the wave was practically giving up.

That being said, it wasn’t all awkward.

Han Yu-jeong was the guide.

It was the thing that exceeded 3,000 points and that the second exam was ruined.

All the legs fit.

So no one expected Han Yoo-jung to make a big rebound in the 3rd test.

The manager asked the hunter, who was standing awkwardly.

“Hey, Kyungsoo. Aren’t you the most intelligent of all the people here? The people sitting there are ignorant managers, and among the prospects, you are number one.”

“… yes?”

“Han Yoo-jung, how did you deal with it?”

Hunter could not answer and hesitated.

The manager did not rush. I was roughly expecting it.

“Didn’t you just see?”

“… … yes.”

“Since when?”

“Yes?”

“Since when have you not seen me? when wielding a sword? Or before that?”

Hunter couldn’t even open his mouth at all. I was embarrassed to answer. and sold out I remember the words I used to rant to the manager in the waiting room.

He muttered, biting his dry lips.

“When you take the first step… from.”

It was when the manager swallowed a smirk. At the top is the aggregate score. He asked the hunter who bowed his head.

“How old was Lee Ji-ah?”

“11 seconds… It was the best record.”

“Damn, when will that damn record be broken? When I was a freshman, I bet with the hyungs.”

Hunter also looked at the electric sign embedded at the top.

[Han Yoo-jung 9 Seconds]

It was 2 seconds faster than Lee Ji-ah.

“It was updated after 10 years. I was on the side that wouldn’t break.”

“… What about the managers?”

“What?”

“Where did the managers walk?”

At the Hunter’s question, the manager looked at the entrance. The eyes of the managers and hunters are focused on the girl who comes in with the door open.

Although the focus of attention was daunting, Han Yoo-jung was walking naturally as if it were someone else’s business.

“Of course everyone said it wouldn’t break, so I bet, bastard.”

*

As soon as the exam was over, I headed to the parking lot with Han Yoo-jung.

It’s because the manager’s gaze was not serious. It was the eyes of a hawk looking for food.

I sat in the driver’s seat and took a deep breath. I felt a gaze on my side and turned my head. Han Yoo-jung has a triumphant face.

How are you?

Is this record-breaking?

If it was someone else, I would have felt unlucky, but because I am the hunter in charge, I only look cute.

“Are you going to be surprised, Jia? The record was broken.”

“I saw it on the Internet.”

“Internet?”

“It’s been a year and a half since I woke up to my aunt taking the hunter exam.”

“really?”

“Really.”

I didn’t know that

How did I know what I didn’t know?

Han Yoo-jung speaks in a voice that looks like she is looking forward to it.

“And it’s been a year and a half since I woke up.”

Ah, now I know.

I think he’s hungry for praise.

commendable If you don’t praise this, what would you praise? It was even more so when I think about how hard I worked after the second exam.

“I don’t know how I was in charge of a hunter like this from the very beginning. I was lucky, very.”

The skill of recognizing the hidden emotions in Han Yoo-jung’s blunt face was my specialty.

But, it seemed like he knew it even if he didn’t need that kind of skill.

How excited is the kid now?

“If other hunters were also in charge, it would be a big deal… .”

“why?”

“I’m afraid that the hunters will threaten me for not meeting expectations because my eyes are too high. Expectations are lowered when the first hunter is in the opening class… .”

Seeing your face makes me laugh

I put in the car key and checked Han Yoo-jung’s seat belt. Even though I didn’t say whether the nagging in the past was effective, I’m wearing it well. As I started the engine, I suddenly remembered what I had promised.

“Ah, Yoojung.”

“yes?”

“You know what we talked about this morning.”

“What is it?”

“It’s a wish. I’ll tell you later.”

He asked while moving the gears.

“What is your wish?”

I was really curious. He seldom asks me for a favor. But, I tried so hard that I wondered if I could really work so hard.

What the hell do you want to ask for?

“Yoo-jung?”

Suddenly, Han Yoo-jeong takes out her cell phone from her arms.

“what are you doing?”

“It’s a video shoot.”

“Why are you filming a video?”

“I want to take a picture as a souvenir.”

I don’t think it’s material.

By the way, this makes me anxious.

What the hell are you even trying to film for?

Looking at her with anxiety, she smiled round and round.

“Call me Yoojung for a week. Just like you do with your aunt.”

“… … What?”

“I also put a respectful note.”

Han Yoo-jeong approaches with a strange smile.

she whispered softly.

“Hurry up, Hyunwoo.”
