Hunter Academy’s Greatest War God - Chapter 26
Episode 26
In order to achieve the pinnacle of Skyscraper Academy, Ryujin has had many rivals kneel before him.
Acceleration characteristics corresponding to the S class.
A swordsmanship honed under the strongest teacher, the swordsman.
In addition, for more than half of the day, he only clung to training and polished himself. The proof was the record of winning first place in this competition.
‘…That’s not even funny.’
Even so, Ryujin was not drunk with victory. Rather, he felt a sense of defeat while looking at Shin Yuseong. The record of
‘this…’
is overwhelming, but the difficulty of the two attacks was different. Unlike the Chinese team, which dealt with Werewolf with two people, the Korean team dealt with Lich and Dullahan respectively. In addition, Shin Yoo-seong’s performance in the last battle was close to solo.
‘It’s not my victory.’
Shin Yoo-seong chose the difficult but stronger path and eventually proved it. His name would be plastered on the news in China, but Ryu Jin was not happy with such an unpleasant victory.
‘…I want to be the best. It’s still a long way.’
Coincidentally, the goal that the Chinese Hunter Association wanted for Ryu Jin was also the same as Ryu Jin.
What China is trying to create is a flawless Hunter who is stronger than his master swordsman.
It was only with their support that Ryujin could protect her precious things.
‘…there is no next.’
Ryujin turned around with Shin Yooseong behind. Han Seol-ah, who was watching from the side, urgently called Ryu-jin only then.
“Hey there… Thank you earlier.”
Han Seol-ah was grateful that Ryu Jin had saved her from the Werewolf. Ryujin turned her head and looked down at Seolah Han. Seolah Han’s arm was wrapped in a bandage that looked like first aid.
Let Ryujin’s gaze stay. Han Seol-ah scratched her head as if it was awkward.
“Oh this? Just get treated in China. Because our schedule is also tight…”
Ryujin looked down at Han Seol-ah’s arm with a cold gaze.
“I’ll get in the way.”
“I’m sorry…”
Let’s avoid looking at Han Seol-ah, who is downcast. Ryujin ignored Han Seol-ah and passed by.

The time when all raids were completed.
After all the events prepared by the Association, the Artifact Conferment Ceremony was held according to the dungeons attacked.
[1st Place – Jin Ryu (Moonlight Sanctuary)]
[Reward Artifact – (Silver Moon Sword)]
Let the name and details pop up on the screen. Ryujin stepped up to the podium.
Kang Yoo-chan, the president of the association, looked down at Ryujin and smiled happily.
“Seeing you reminds me of my colleague, the swordsman. No, maybe more than that!”
“It is an honour.”
Ryujin bowed lightly and accepted the silver moon sword from Kang Yuchan. The pure white blade, as if bathed in moonlight, gave off a sense of mystery somewhere.
[2nd Place – Adela (Astella Ice Castle)]
[Reward Artifact – (Ice Crystal)]
Next, Adela took the podium. Adela silently accepted the jewelry box containing the 10,000-year-old ice crystal.
Perpetual Ice Crystal is a mysterious artifact that contains coldness. If Adela absorbed it as an elixir, the existing ice properties could be further strengthened.
Adela came down and the Japanese team took the podium. Soon, Shin Yoo-seong’s turn came. Yuchan Kang was very happy.
“This is the first time in the tournament that you succeeded in attacking a double, right?”
“yes.”
“Chuck! Do you covet strength even in competitions where records are to be set?”
Shin Yoosung nodded. Kang Yu-chan chuckled.
“If you’re a cancer hunter, you should! How common are opportunities for students to meet the boss? chuckle!”
After meeting at the academy, Kang Yoo-chan cherished Shin Yoo-seong as if he were his own student.
“Since the disciple inherited the Black Dragon Po after the teacher. Yuwonhak must have a different feeling!”
Heukryongpo was a beautiful uniform with gold embroidery on black cloth.
May Lin, the manager of this tournament, looked at Kang Yu-chan and carefully spoke out.
“President of the association. As for the treatment of the dropped artifacts…”
“Well, the dungeon in which the tournament was held is owned by the association… but the association cannot take the artifacts obtained by the students killing the boss. Give that to our Yoosung.”
“yes. All right.”
Meirin nodded at Kang Yuchan’s words. At least as long as Kang Yoo-chan was there, the association was on the side of Shin Yoo-seong.
“thank you.”
“okay. Hopefully, Korea’s status will shine. I’ll be in touch with you soon about the national competition. chuckle!”
Let Kang Yu-chan leave.
Shin Yuseong came down from the podium. Sumire was seen smiling brightly and waving in the crowd of students and officials.
Shin Yoo-seong was Sumire’s partner in the exam, but this was the first time he had seen such a bright smile.
“Shin Yuseong! Here you go!”
Yooseong Shin smiled and approached Sumire.
* * *
Way back to the academy.
The Internet was abuzz with topics related to the competition.
[Shin Yuseong VS Adela! Who is the representative of Korea’s national competition?]
[Successful double capture with F-class characteristics!]
[Student even got an artifact during the competition. First case in the association…]
Sumire muttered softly as she checked the news on her old-fashioned cell phone.
“…Really, we won a prize in a competition.”
Sumire still couldn’t believe the current reality. Sumire, whose ranking was the worst among freshmen not too long ago, has now won the tournament.
unbelievable reality.
Sumire glanced at Shin Yoo-seong from her phone.
“Of course… It’s all thanks to Shin Yoo-seong.”
Sumire thought about fighting the lich. According to the strategy, the undead were called in to win the game, but Sumire’s attack on Lich’s artifact tilted toward failure.
“If Shin Yoo-seong hadn’t come, I would have ended up with Richie…”
However, Sumire’s worries were not true. Shin Yoo-seong was able to shorten the attack time thanks to Sumire’s performance, which drew out the artifact effect of Lich early.
If you cleared the dungeon with 5th place instead of 4th place, you couldn’t take any artifacts even if you succeeded in double attacking.
“No Sumire. You shortened the attack tremendously. …So your performance is great in this tournament.”
“…Really?”
Sumire’s expression brightened even more, as if she was comforted by Yoosung Shin’s calm analysis. Shin Yooseong took something out of his pocket and handed it to Sumire.
“…So that’s what I mean. Sumire, let this be yours.”
“Oh yes? Hee! This one!”
With a tremendous reaction, Sumire stepped back. What Shin Yuseong held in his hand was the skull ring Richie was wearing.
“Yeah, but this is an artifact…”
Sumire shook her head and tried to refuse. Shin Yoo-seong pressed the button on his pocket.
“Look closely, Sumire.”
Jiing!
Then, a hologram emitted from the band floated in the air.
The options of the ring suited the necromancer Sumire, but. It was an artifact that Shin Yoo-seong, who used martial arts, did not need at all.
“It’s something I don’t need.”
In addition, Shin Yoo-seong has already obtained the Black Dragon Cannon. Since they participated in the raid together, it was natural for Sumire to receive the distribution of artifacts as well.
“ruler. Sumire.”
Shin Yuseong put the ring on Sumire’s palm. Sumire looked up at the new meteor. Kind eyes and a smile looking at oneself. Sumire stared at the ring with a blank face, wondering what she was thinking.
“The ring Shin Yoo-seong gave me…”
Sumire, who eventually received the ring, murmured softly.
“Put it on.”
Shin Yoo-seong asked about that appearance. Surprised, Sumire spoke urgently with her face and ears reddened.
“I’ll… oh my! I’m sorry!”
come and go
Sumire passed Shin Yuseong and returned to the academy at a faster pace than usual.

Concentration room prepared in the western training room of the academy. In the quiet, soundproofed room, Adela opened the jewelry box.
Saaak!
White chilly air radiated from the marble-like ice crystal. At first glance, it looks like normal ice. The perennial ice crystal held the chill that would freeze it to the bone.
Adela stared at the ice crystal for a long time.
‘…This is a 10,000-year-old ice crystal.’
Perpetual ice crystals were usually artifacts used to give cold attributes to swords or accessories.
But, like Adela, hunters with ice attributes or skills had other ways to use ice crystals.
‘It’s cold.’
Adela picked up the 10,000-year-old ice crystal with her finger. Even for Adela, who handles the cold, the chill of the ice crystal was too cold.
‘If you put something like this in your mouth…’
Adela had to deal with the tremendous cold of the ice crystal with her bare body. It was a reckless challenge that would freeze everything inside the body if it were normal.
Adela looked at the 10,000-year-old ice crystal expressionlessly. Originally, Adela did not need the help of these artifacts.
She is the absolute best of Gaon Academy. Although he is an international student in Italy, he was the strongest student among all first-year students in Korea, who are called hunter powerhouses.
However, Shin Yoo-seong made undefeated Adela nervous.
I challenged the double attack in the tournament and eventually succeeded.
[If this man…]
Watching Shin Yoo-seong’s strategy in the tournament, Adela expected. It reminded me of the heart-pounding battle my grandfather told me about when I was young. My heart beat faster than I had ever had before.
[Obviously.]
Shin Yoo-seong’s appearance was a turning point in Adela’s academy life, which was cold and dull because it was so strong.
So, Adela had to prepare in the best condition for the best fight.
Tup.
Adela put a 10,000-year-old ice crystal in her mouth.
The ice crystal, which was as hard as ice, disappeared without a shape when it touched Adela’s tongue. What remained was the terrifyingly cold air that the ice crystal held for ten thousand years.
Adela was heartbroken.
It felt like the blood in my body was freezing cold.
“…sigh.”
Adela frowned and held her breath. In order to absorb the effect of the artifact and strengthen its characteristics and skills, the current coldness had to be spread throughout the body.
Adela closed her eyes.
The coldness of the ice crystal pierced her body and gave her unimaginable pain, but Adela did not even sigh.
I was just quietly focused.
Saaak!
An hour passed like that.
Adela, lost in meditation, opened her eyes slowly, as if waking up from sleep. Adela was surrounded by white frost. Adela murmured softly in the winter-tinged landscape.
“…cold.”
Adela wrapped her arms around her and trembled. The Winter Queen was more sensitive to the cold than she looked.
