Hunter Academy’s Greatest War God - Chapter 22
Episode 22
Gaon Academy’s principal’s office.
Jin Byeong-cheol, the principal, gave a business smile as he brought out a cup of tea that was only served to special guests.
“No ha ha ha… what does that mean? Are you going to make that Sumire student the same student?”
“yes.”
Let Shin Yoosung answer confidently. The headmaster was crying.
“Are you really talking about that Sumire student I know?”
“Sumire is number seven. Are you not qualified enough?”
It was an open fact known to everyone at the academy that the reason why Sumire was able to become number 7 was thanks to Shin Yoo-seong’s outstanding performance.
It was a natural reaction considering Sumire’s grade ranking before becoming Shin Yoo-seong’s partner. So, Jin Byeong-cheol persuaded Shin Yoo-seong as carefully as possible without going against the planting.
“No, but… isn’t Sumire an F-class trait? I’d rather have the other students in Class S…”
But Shin Yoo-seong was adamant.
“principal. I’m also an F-class trait. And traits aren’t everything for Hunters.”
“Ah yes! By the way! But it’s a horse… It’s a competition representing the academy…”
Jin Byeong-cheol was upset. It would be a huge loss to Gaon Academy if Shin Yoo-seong went against Shin Yoo-seong’s heart and declared a transfer.
However, it is unacceptable to send Sumire to the association’s tournament and ruin the image of the academy.
Shin Yuseong looked at the teacup that was cooling down and started talking in a calm tone.
“An F-class trait that is said to be the weakest. Even so, Master believed in my talent and gave me a chance.”
King Kwon stopped by the orphanage and noticed Shin Yoo-seong’s constitution. It’s an F-class trait, but it has the same talent as a gemstone. If King Kwon didn’t believe in the possibility, the new Yuseong wouldn’t exist.
He would have stayed that way for the rest of his life as a child abandoned by his family.
And the same goes for Sumire.
In the [Cemetery of Despair] overflowing with undead monsters, Sumire’s potential was limitless. However, Jin Byeong-cheol did not trust Sumire. It wasn’t even given a chance.
So Shin Yoo-seong could not accept Jin Byeong-cheol’s proposal. Just as usual, he persuaded Jin Byeong-cheol with his calm voice and straight eyes.
“So Sumire should be given a chance.”
Just as his teacher, King Kwon, believed in Shin Yoo-seong. This time, it was Shin Yoo-seong’s turn to believe in Sumire’s potential.
“Kuhmm…”
Jin Byeong-cheol salivated and nodded slowly instead of answering.

Luxurious seven number dormitory.
Sumire, who returned from training at Shin Meteor and the Forest of Dead Spirits, was once again impressed with the dormitory’s facilities.
“Wow…”
Shoot aaaaa!
‘hot water!’
Hot water pouring from the shower.
A bathroom with fragrant bath salts.
There was even a large TV on the opposite side of the bathroom.
‘…There’s even a TV in the bathroom!’
fidget. fidget.
Sumire touched the remote control with thrilled eyes. When I was living in Japan, I had to give up the small TV every day. There were few days when Sumire, who had a weak personality, could hold the remote control. However, all the facilities in the dormitory were prepared for Sumire.
Pick!
Soaking in the bathroom, Sumire turns on the TV with the remote control. Various news streamed on TV.
Among them were some familiar faces. It was reporter Yuhanna who interviewed Sumire at the academy.
[The Academy City branch has assigned 10 active hunters as security guards to prepare for the dungeon competition to be held tomorrow!]
Yuhanna on TV asked again, holding the microphone to Meirin, the manager of Academy City.
[Is there a reason you mobilized the workforce this far?]
Meirin, the manager, answered calmly.
[Because the safety of students is the top priority for the association. It’s a natural treatment.]
Sumire was moved by Meirin’s words on TV, but the reality was complicated.
Students participating in Korean competitions abroad are the elite representing the country.
The association just didn’t want to get into trouble if an accident broke out.
This is a nationwide broadcast.
Mei Lin continued, looking at the camera for someone listening.
[…and the Hunter Association has prepared the best artifacts worthy of Korea’s status as a reward for the competition. You can look forward to it.]
Pick!
Artifact.
The best treasure that can be obtained with a very small probability when attacking the tower.
‘Am I going to participate in a contest with such a great thing?’
Sumire swallowed and walked out of the bathroom. The wind from the heater that dried the body was warm, and the sleeping gown wrapped around the body was made of high-quality material, so it was pleasant to the touch.
For Sumire, the current situation seemed like a dream.
After studying abroad in Japan.
Sumire’s grades always ran at the bottom. However, the current Sumire was number seven. Sumire thought it was all thanks to Shin Yoo-seong.
‘He gave me my hair…’
Shin Yoo-seong reassured Sumire, who was trembling for not being a nuisance.
[It’s okay, because you did your best.]
Of course, the result was first place in the lower class.
Shin Yoo-seong swept all the points in Jewel Island with his tremendous performance. It was only natural that he had even defeated the level 4 boss Golem.
Favor for Sumire was a rare experience, and Shin Yoo-seong said this tournament was important. And he told me that Sumire’s characteristics would be the core of the strategy. Shin Yoo-seong was the first person who trusted Sumire this much.
“…I want to repay you.”
Sumire, who was looking at the ceiling, muttered involuntarily.
back.
Sumire, who closed her lips, looked at her hand. Although he is F-rank, if he uses the [Call of the Dead] skill well, which can deal with undead, he can help Shin Yoo-seong as he wishes.
‘By all means! I have to do it.’
Sumire, who was lying on the bed and making a promise to Shin Yoo-seong, fell asleep very slowly.

The day of the capture contest.
Let the 30 selected and curated parties arrive. The progressing agents of the Hunter Association started guiding the students in perfect order.
“All participants, please follow the guidance of the host!”
“Parties from abroad should come here and finish the process!”
Let’s merge famous academies in each city as well as academies from other countries. Close to 100 people gathered at the association.
However, even among so many parties and people, there was only one party with a single participant.
1st place in Gaon.
Adela Ortensia.
Although Adela won one of Gaon’s two seeding rights. Didn’t party with other students.
Perhaps because of that, Adela stood out among the participants and caught Yuhanna’s radar net.
‘oh? What about him?’
While looking for an interviewee, Yuhanna approached Adela with her eyes shining.
“Gaon’s grade ranking first place! Adela student! Right? I’m from K-Channel, can I do an interview for you?”
Adela did not answer Yuhanna’s question. I just looked at something with expressionless eyes.
‘That’s good. I don’t like it.’
Yuhanna hated the type like Adela, but still asked reference questions for the interview.
“I think I was the only one who participated in the competition alone. Any reason? Maybe to monopolize the artifact that is the reward? Or else…”
Adela briefly answered Yuhanna’s countless questions.
“…Because alone is enough.”
A dungeon attack competition that most academies fear with all their might. But Adela needed no preparation.
‘Astella Ice Castle.’
Adela looked at the portal. It was a dungeon where the boss was an ice witch who was said to freeze even the bones, even though it wasn’t working yet.
The estimated grade of the boss is 4th to 5th grade.
It was a place that no one would be able to challenge alone, except for Adela, the first place in Gaon’s grade ranking.
Yuhanna smiled at Adela, who was lost in thought.
“Alone is enough. Are you still number 1? Then, do you have a student who can be considered your rival?”
Adela pondered over Yuhanna’s question. Adela, who had been undefeated so far, was unfamiliar with the word rival.
However, there was a person who continued to care. A disciple of the King of Power who defeated Adela’s grandfather. Although he has F-class characteristics, he became number 7 and beat Park Soo-hyun.
“…Shin Yuseong.”
Yuhanna smiled at Adela’s answer that she had unknowingly uttered.
* * *
Even though the venue is Korea, China’s representative is considered the best dark horse.
Jin Ryu (刘俊)
As if he had made a promise to his appearance, the eyes of the participants gathered. Ryu Jin was a disciple of the famous swordsman, and he was a hunter receiving attention from mainland China as well as the world, so it was a natural reaction.
However, Ryujin, the person in charge, did not care about the eyes of the participants. Deep in thought, I was staring at my cell phone that didn’t ring.
Han Seol-ah looked at Ryu-jin and spoke sarcastically in fluent Korean.
“Wow, are you worried about your brother by coming all the way here?”
Ryujin did not succumb to Han Seol-ah’s provocation. To Ryujin, Seolah Han is just a noisy woman. It was that kind of evaluation.
Han Seol-ah didn’t even care about Ryujin’s reaction and continued talking at her own pace.
“Ha~ If I were you, I would have enjoyed some popularity. In the meantime, get on the air for a bit.”
As expected, Ryujin did not respond.
Han Seol-ah clicked her tongue in regret when she saw Ryu-jin. Although the face did not affect the fighting power of the hunters, it did increase the awareness of the citizens. It was natural that many opportunities were given to hunters with high recognition.
“Tsk faces are all meant to be used for such times. what a waste. Such a waste. Uh… but what about them?”
Han Seol-ah, who had been talking for a while, looked somewhere with interest.
“Poetry Shin Yoo-seong! 10 minutes left! Oh, it’s 9 minutes now…”
“You don’t have to be nervous.”
The protagonists of the voice were Sumire, who was trembling with tension, and Shin Yoo-seong, who had a calm expression. Han Seol-ah looked at the two and spoke to Ryu-jin.
“O disciple of the Kwon King. isn’t he The name… I don’t know, I don’t remember.”
Ryujin was the first to react.
It was strange to Ryujin that Shin Yooseong was chosen as the disciple of King Kwon, who had F-class characteristics and was famous for being picky.
Ryujin confirmed the name of the portal Shin Yooseong was waiting for.
[Graveyard of Despair]
A dungeon that is incompatible with martial arts because undead monsters that are strong in physical power appear. Han Seol-ah looked at Shin Yoo-seong with a puzzled expression.
“Didn’t you choose the wrong dungeon? Why do fighters catch the undead?”
The 4 parties who clear the dungeon the fastest can take the Artifact, which is a reward for clearing the dungeon. Nevertheless, Shin Yoo-seong chose the most unfavorable dungeon for him.
Gying!
When the time comes, let the portal work. Shin Yuseong and Sumire passed through a portal that shimmered in blue and disappeared.
growl.
Ryujin drew her sword and spoke to Han Seol-ah for the first time.
“Do your best.”
The only result Ryujin wants is 1st place.
Team members who did not meet her standards were only obstacles to Ryujin.
