The Dungeon Cleaning Life of a Once Genius Hunter - Chapter 206

206

Practical test site located at the multi-purpose training center attached to the support team.

Key figures from the rank evaluation committee, including me, Director Lee Ah-young, and Director Lee Doo-sik, were in attendance and evaluating the skills of the hunters.

“Then… Operation Team 4 will end here.”

Assistant Manager Song Hye-yeon from the support team in charge of conducting the practical test.

Her voice, once an aide to Kim Min-ju, rang out in the exam room.

It’s been quite a while since I saw him, and it seemed like he had completely taken off his new look in the past year. No, beyond his naked body, at first glance, he looks so bad that you might mistake him for a manager with 15 years of experience and a lot of work.

From what I heard, he is working in the Hunter Management Office, succeeding Lee Ah-young.

‘Is that job really a bit tough…?’

It was a time when I was casting a sad look towards assistant manager Song Hye-yeon.

“Team 4 has good balance.”

Director Lee Ah-young, who was checking the evaluation sheet, opened his mouth implicitly.

“Obviously, the positions and classes are balanced, but it is a position that only looks at each individual’s abilities. “There are some shortcomings in that respect.”

“Well, Team 4 is focusing on backup and support subjugation rather than initial deployment.”

“Unless there is something unusual about performance or experience, I will barely be able to maintain the status quo.”

I said, taking a long breath.

In fact, 90% of the horses will not deviate significantly from their existing ranks unless something goes wrong during the rank re-evaluation.

Even then, the majority of the remaining 10% fell in rank.

Raising the rank will only be possible for very few people.

‘It’s much worse than expected…’

Wasn’t the purpose of the rank reorganization in the first place to place our hunters in the top rankings in the world?

If this is the case, the world ranking will not change much.

But now that I was committing injustice, my pride was hurt…

I lost my appetite, feeling regretful for one reason or another.

“Then we will proceed with the review of Operation Team 5.”

Assistant Manager Song Hye-yeon’s voice soon rang out again.

“Hunter Jonghyuk Choi, please come in.”

When she called, a man appeared in the middle of the training ground.

As soon as I saw that face, I frowned.

I immediately looked through his personal information to see if anything…

‘That bastard…’

Sure enough, it was the guy I knew.

“What’s wrong?”

As I was frowning, Director Lee Ah-young asked with a puzzled look on my face.

“…Is there anything unusual about that person?”

“Hunter Jonghyuk Choi? well. “I have been affiliated with the Seoul headquarters since I joined the C-level company for 8 years… There is nothing special about the documents.”

Lee Ah-young also shrugged his shoulders while shuffling through documents.

“Well, if you’ve been in the headquarters for 8 years, I’m sure you’ve seen me at least once on your way there.”

“Are you sure you just saw it?”

I clicked my tongue, openly showing my displeasure.

How could you forget?

He was sentenced to prison for continuously sexually assaulting an aide in the support team before returning.

‘I ended up smearing my business card called Hunter with ink.’

A crime that lasted for two years.

In addition, during the investigation, it was revealed that he had made threats using his position as a hunter, which further angered citizens.

‘Did I say a single word could make them never work in this field?…’

After that incident, citizens began to increasingly distrust hunters, and the government formed a special prosecutor and conducted a thorough investigation of all hunters.

This immediately created a butterfly effect throughout the association.

Big and small incidents that had been buried in the past were brought to the surface, causing many hunters to lose their minds.

Of course, I couldn’t avoid the spark either.

Violent boss abuse of power controversy, etc.

All kinds of sources were distributed to the media, but fortunately, thanks to the association’s efforts, they were able to prevent it from spreading.

However, I just managed to keep my mouth shut and couldn’t make it all go away.

In the end, on the day that Team Leader Park Geun-tae’s assault incident broke out, when the events that I had worked so hard to prevent became known, the reputation I had built up over a lifetime was destroyed in an instant.

So, how could that kid look pretty?

‘Looking at you here, it looks like the accident hasn’t happened yet…’

As I was glaring at him with a serious attitude, a recent memory flashed through my mind.

It was none other than Moon So-yeon being assigned to Team 5 as the person in charge of personality evaluation.

‘Tsk, I’m a bit anxious…’

However, if the person in charge changes now, the undercover may be noticed.

While I was trying to figure out what to do, my exam preparations were over.

“Operation Team 5 Choi Jong-hyuk. “It is a C-rank wizard class.”

The test began with Choi Jong-hyuk’s brief self-introduction.

thud-.

Eventually, a large object appeared in front of him.

It was a training dummy made of semi-permanent stone handed over from the International Association.

The purpose of the practical test is to identify the monster’s tendencies and your own skills in an actual operational situation and evaluate how effectively you can distribute and use your skills.

It would be most accurate to conduct the process in an actual dungeon, but since it was realistically impossible to evaluate all the hunters, a dummy was used.

Because of its ability to absorb this ability, it does not fail even if the skill is hit multiple times, making it perfect for training.

“Ghost-type monster. As for the current situation, let’s assume that all melee positions have taken a lot of damage and are retreating. “If you are ready, please begin.”

As soon as Director Song Hye-yeon finished specifying the situation, Choi Jong-hyuk adjusted his posture.

[Unique Skill: Blizzard Phoenix]

Saaaa―.

Soon, a large phoenix enveloped in cold appeared in the air.

The moment it flaps its wings loudly.

[Feather fire]

Kwagwagwagwang-!!

Dozens of feathers rained down on the pile, causing a huge explosion.

It is powerful enough to shock even those of us who are far away.

[Acquired skill: Summoning – Wailing Wall]

[Acquired skill: Anti-phasing]

[Unique skill: Blizzard Phoenix]

[Quick Freeze]

Blah blah blah!

Quagwagwang-!!

Choi Jong-hyuk naturally linked several skills afterwards.

“Hmm…”

He observed the figure closely and stroked his chin.

After drawing the monster’s attention with one large attack, build a wall to block its movement.

Then, to secure a close position, he blocks the ghost-type monster’s phasing skill and attacks again using his unique skill.

Director Lee Du-sik, who was watching the connection, opened his mouth quietly.

“It’s pretty good for a C grade, right? “The skill distribution is not bad and it seems like you understand the characteristics of your skills well.”

“More than anything, it’s quite powerful.”

Director Lee A-young also added a word of support.

It certainly cannot be denied.

Ability to accurately grasp the situation, high class understanding, and solid firepower.

Any way you look at it, it is far above the C rank level.

There are no problems with the career evaluation yet, and the performance is not bad at this level.

‘I’m not the guy I like, but…’

Still, evaluation is evaluation.

If there are no major problems with the personality evaluation during the remaining evaluation period, I will probably be promoted this time.

“The exam will end. “The next person, please enter.”

Choi Jong-hyuk, who had successfully completed his turn, left with a light silent bow.

I looked at his back and cautiously opened my mouth.

“Well… please contact Soyeon Moon and ask her to report immediately if anything happens. “In particular, please tell me not to get close to that guy.”

“yes? why?”

“Please just do that.”

Because he’s a guy with whom there’s nothing good to be associated with.

Director Lee Ah-young looked puzzled, but nodded without asking any more.

Afterwards, the practical exam continued.

We concentrated on grading the evaluation sheet, and after about an hour, the test for all 5 teams was coming to an end.

“sorry. “I’m a little late because there’s an urgent subjugation.”

Operation Headquarters Director Kim Min-ju appeared at the test site.

Originally, it would have been the first order, but it looks like they ran straight in as soon as they finished subjugating him.

“How can we proceed with Hunter Kim Min-ju first before proceeding with Team 6?”

Director Song Hye-yeon asked me.

We exchanged glances with each other and then we all nodded.

“Then please come forward.”

Minju Kim followed the instructions and moved to the center of the training ground.

Soon, he grabbed the sheath and stood in front of the training dummy.

At the same time, the attention of the hunters watching from the second floor was focused at once.

It was a golden opportunity to see the skills of this person who rose from a mediocre B-level hunter to A-rank in just one year, and at the same time rose to the head of the operations headquarters at an unbelievable speed.

“A golem-type monster. Let’s assume a situation where all the people capable of subjugation other than yourself have been wiped out. If you’re ready…”

Before the situation was even specified.

[Unique Skill: Thousand-Armed Avalokitesvara – Awakening]

[Six Avalokitesvara Inside and Out]

[Contact – Avalokitesvara Sound]

Blue energy exploded throughout the training ground.

All of the other hunters who were watching turned their heads at the strong energy.

Soon she took out her sword.

[Right Dharma King Tathagata]

“Hey hey…! for a moment…!”

───!

A blue light flashed, blinding everyone there.

I also hastily covered my eyes with my sleeve.

A few seconds until silence fell.

When I carefully opened my closed eyes, the first thing I saw was.

“Oh my…”

This was exactly what the training field looked like, divided diagonally.

“…What is that crazy thing?”

“Is that possible…?”

“Wow… Is the head of the headquarters the head of the headquarters?”

The test site is shaken by the shocking sight.

But there is nothing more absurd than that scene.

“….”

He said he was more embarrassed than anyone else.

‘Have you not realized that you have grown?…’ It’s

too much, it’s too much.

I shook my head slowly.

“Do you think it would be worthwhile?”

Director Lee Ah-young tapped me with his shoulder and joked.

“…I didn’t teach you anything.”

“Humility.”

No really.

Well, putting that aside…

‘If this is the case, S rank is a given.’

I nodded as I looked at Minjoo Kim, who was leaving in a hurry.

Afterwards, it was time to continue testing.

“How about you give it a try, CEO?”

A hunter who was watching from the second floor suddenly said something.

I raised my head and looked there.

“Isn’t the CEO also a talented person? “He is even the director’s teacher.”

It was Hunter Choi Jonghyuk.

“Seeing as how you rose from a job as a janitor to that position in just one year, you must be even more amazing than the general manager, right?”

“….”

“Take it as a demonstration and show it to me. “I can’t say who it is, but there are people who think the media exaggerated it a bit.”

When I saw him openly raising his eyebrows at me, I burst into laughter.

“If you want to refuse….”

“I will refuse.”

I cut him off and gave a short answer.

“I am not a registered hunter. Not only is it not subject to review, but I’m not sure why I should waste my precious time doing something meaningless. Above all, there is no reason for me to follow what you tell me.”

“We also need to know the extent of the CEO’s skills to trust us…”

“Mr. Choi Jong-hyuk.”

I smiled and continued.

“Please understand the topic.”

“….”

He looked at me quietly with a stern expression.

“what… Don’t be too upset. “I will show you my skills someday when I get the chance.”

After saying that, I didn’t want to talk any more, so I immediately gestured towards assistant manager Song Hye-yeon.

“Then continue with the test.”

“Yes, yes… we will begin operation Team 6.”

Exams resumed.

I crossed my arms and glanced at Choi Jong-hyuk, and he was still glaring at me.
