Chapter 375
The altar is a trick to disperse power. However, at the same time, considering Shin Yu-seong’s love for velvet, it was a trap that was sure to succeed.
“so… … There is no need to have elites at every altar. “If you distribute your power on the altar, you have already fallen into a trap.”
A first year student in Class S.
Seonghyuk Min stood up from the altar, stretching refreshed as if it had been a boring wait. Seonghyuk Min used polite language with Adela instead of informally as usual. That meant a growing distance between the two.
“I thought you were smart, but I’m disappointed. “Have you become indifferent to your duties as a class leader because of playing house, and now you’ve lost your sense of being a hunter?”
Adela Ortensia.
The only absolute leader in the first year before Shin Yu-seong came. The reason other classes couldn’t surpass Class S was because Adela always reigned as the strongest first-year student.
Not all students in Class S are stronger than Class A. However, the best first-year students in Gaon are in S class.
It was the pride of Class S and a symbol of sorts. But now the story was different.
Adella was defeated by Class F’s Shin Yu-seong, and in Min Seong-hyuk’s eyes, it seemed like she no longer cared about her class president’s responsibilities.
“Class monitor. No, Adela. After this incident is over, the president has decided to give me the position of class president of the next S class. Do you know what that means?”
As Min Seong-hyuk laughed, Adela raised her palms in a question-and-answer dance. The intention was not to allow even a second of meaningless waste of time anymore.
“I’m not curious. “Nothing for a boring person like you.”
“You should be curious. Because it’s not my story, it’s the president’s story. Gaon will soon change when the president enters his third year.”
“… … “After all, she is just a student.”
“No, absolutely not. Adella, do you really have no interest in how the Academy is run?
Externally, the person with the greatest power at Gaon was by far Jin Byeong-cheol, the principal. However, if we dig into the reality of Gaon one by one, the story is different.
Except for second graders and Adela, who would soon be third graders, most of the upperclassmen were following Shin Hayoon.
Shin Hayun was resourceful and had a background from the Shinno family and the Yusu guild. He developed a wealth of hunters by receiving requests from external guilds as well as companies, and students followed Shin Hayun.
Shin Hayun was a scary and harsh person in charge, but he also had overwhelming abilities.
“Now Gaon can’t run without a chairman. “The president won the guild’s contract, and the upperclassmen also follow the president.”
If strength was everything, no one would be afraid of Shin Hayun. However, Shin Hayun knew how to use the power in her hands.
From Gaon’s rookie, he became the head of the Hunter Department and expanded the Hunter Department’s position through his background and connections, as well as his natural resourcefulness.
When will Shin Hayun be satisfied?
He has earned the position of next president, and soon as he enters his third year, he will be given full authority over Gaon, which even principal Jin Byeong-cheol cannot interfere with.
If you graduate from the academy, you will be in the best position in the hunter world under the protection of the Sinnoh family and the leading guild.
“The chairman is different from us. You’re looking much farther away. Shin Yu-seong is strong, but… … “Compared to the chairman’s skills, he is just a mere hunter.”
Shin Hayun has no colleagues.
She always reigned supreme among people, but instead of trusted allies, there were those who obeyed her resourcefulness and charisma.
“If the president leaves for another academy, will the student council and Hunter club students stay at Gaon, or… … Should I follow the president?”
What Min Seong-hyuk spewed out step by step was a fairly reasonable story.
“From the students’ perspective, only the name of the academy has changed. However, the chairman has a prominent guild and a Sinnoh family. “If you work under the president, your life will be different when you graduate, right?”
It is a simple logic of capital, but that makes it even more powerful. Because I was asking whether to choose between 1 apple or 2 apples. There is a fixed correct answer to this problem.
“The president can put pressure on you whenever he wants. “Then who will take your side in Gaon?”
Seonghyeok Min puts his index finger and thumb together! He made a sound. The mana circuit drawn on the floor around the altar glowed for an instant, activating the prepared barrier.
“So, all I have to do is wait until the president comes.”
At first, Min Seong-hyuk’s body became transparent. But that was just the beginning. If it could only be used on one’s own body, it would only be a B-class characteristic.
“As you know, my ability is ‘invisibility’. But did you also know that there are stages of that ability?
Transparency.
Min Sung-hyuk’s ‘transparency’, which shows the inside without being blurred, touches the perception of the object.
“Step 1 for the first time.”
Level 1.
Seonghyeok Min or the body of the object is reflected and the location becomes unrecognizable. As soon as Min Seong-hyuk’s body disappeared, Adela could not even feel his presence.
“To the extent of hiding the location. “You can’t beat me.”
When Adella grabbed her palm, ice in the shape of a military flag rushed to the place where Min Seong-hyuk was.
Cheocheocheok-!
However, the ice only stuck to the floor meaninglessly and could not catch Min Seong-hyuk, who had become invisible.
“I guess so. But I told you. My role is all about taking time. ruler! Look Carefully!”
Step 2.
The floor Adela was standing on disappeared as if a hole had been opened. Basically, ‘transparency’ occurs because an object allows light to pass through. This occurs because visual information from behind, which should have been obscured by an object, can be transmitted without interruption.
“I just made the place where we were standing invisible. Location is relative. “If I don’t know the visual information of a place, I can’t know my location or your location.”
The feeling of floating in the sky like clouds. Because there is no place, I don’t know where I stand or where the other person is. At most, the visual information given to Adela was that this place was in the sky.
‘… … ‘I can’t know anything except that this is heaven.’
wince-
It was not easy for Adela to even walk because she could not see the ground she was standing on or her own body.
But even this wasn’t the end. Min Seong-hyuk, who has S-class characteristics, had the last three stages, which were nothing short of special moves.
“And this… … “My best.”
After Min Seong-hyuk’s words, Adela lost her perspective.
‘… … ah?’
For an instant, I felt like I was in a pitch-black deep sea. It was as if my eyelids were closed, I couldn’t see anything and everything was dark.
“Okay, give up now. “I can’t beat you, but neither can you.”
This is Seonghyuk Min’s third stage, transparency of space.
“This entire space, which was closed off with a barrier earlier, has been made transparent. Vision is what allows us to see things because they reflect light. “If everything in the entire space were transparent, you wouldn’t be able to see anything.”
Information transmitted from outside was blocked, and everything inside the barrier became transparent. Light is meaningless in the space where Min Seong-hyuk demonstrated the three stages.
“How are you going to catch me in a world where I can’t see anything?”
Advanced hunters were a type of decisive battle weapon. Among the S-class, some exceptional people had the power to shatter the world’s common sense.
Adela, who was ranked first in her grade, was a representative example, but the same was true for Min Seonghyuk, who was in class S.

“No matter how strong a hunter is, if you don’t fight, your strength is useless. “In my world, everyone is equal.”
I can’t see anything.
The fact that the light in the entire space disappeared did not simply feel like I had closed my eyes. I can’t get any surrounding data, and furthermore, I don’t even know if I exist in this place.
“ah… … .”
Since Adela’s vision was impaired, she tried to rely on her hearing and made sounds with her mouth. However, sight and hearing have a complementary relationship. Based on the data obtained from each other, vision replaces the empty information of hearing, and hearing replaces the empty information of vision.
Adela felt as if the voice she was spitting out was not her body, but floating in an empty universe.
“The other five senses are starting to collapse as well. “I’m used to it, but in a space like this, everyone goes crazy quickly.”
However, contrary to Min Seong-hyuk’s thoughts, Adela smiled weakly.
“In a world where vision is blocked, we destroy ourselves. Among the hallucinogenic properties I have encountered… … “It’s an incredibly scary ability.”
As Min Seong-hyuk said, if you are left alone in this world for a few days, your mind may gradually collapse and you may go crazy.
But this risk was nothing new to Adela. Min Seong-hyuk did not know the weight of the crown carried by the first place winner, but Adela did.
This match was decided by that very difference.
“… … You are not the first to prepare a plan to defeat me. But the reason I reigned as number one in Gaon despite such threats… … .”
It is not because they have prepared a plan for their abilities, nor because they have an excellent strategy.
“Because it has overwhelming power.”
At first glance, the hunters’ battle appears to be rock-paper-scissors. When you have similar combat power, a good strategy gives you an advantage.
However, the power of hunters is often not symmetrical.
“The scales of power cannot be reversed by strategy.”
[Opera of the Snow]
“Intermezzo.”
White winter flowers bloom in a colorless world. In a world where everything was transparent, flowers had no shape or scent, but they clearly existed.
Adela felt the coolness of the snowflakes spreading from her fingertips. I could feel the surroundings freezing with her coldness.
“Aria.”
Yeah, nothing has changed.
Winter is usually quiet. The world is immersed in a blizzard without form, and the world is filled with silence and silence.
Hwaaaaaaaaaaa!
“This is a simple power struggle… … . “Can your space accommodate my playing?”
The only thing you can hide in a small mug is an egg. You can’t hide a big watermelon.
“Finale.”
Adela played a simple finale using both hands like a conductor.
“Managa, the barrier… … .”
Seonghyuk Min received help from artifacts drawn on the floor in advance, but this was his limit. With Min Seonghyuk’s power, he was unable to block Adella’s mana from exploding out of the barrier.
Squirt-!
Snow flowers bloom in a pitch-black world of nothingness. The snow storm slowly revealed its shape, dispelling the darkness and illuminating the surroundings.
“It’s over.”
As soon as the barrier was broken, the world was restored. Her noble snow queen looked down with her impassive eyes at Min Sung-hyuk, who was kneeling on her knees.
An overwhelming difference in power.
The despair of never being able to win.
“My, my, defeat… … .”
Adella took out the Velvet Glass Heart from the altar as if she had no interest in Min Seong-hyuk at all.
“… … Even if you beat me, nothing will change. “The chairman created a castle, and you are all isolated in that castle.”
In response to Min Seong-hyuk’s provocation with his last pride, Adela turned around and said.
“… … are you okay. “Because such an isolated life is better than voluntary slavery.”
Unlike Min Seong-hyuk, who considered himself a slave, Adela had no intention of serving a tyrant named Shin Hay-yun.
‘Now, my role is… … Saving Velvet… … .’
It was not Adela’s role to bring down the tyrant from the throne. It was Shin Yu-seong’s role to present himself as the one rebel who shouldered everyone’s burden.
Adella, holding the glass heart, closed her eyes. Her expression, which seemed insensitive, was everywhere and she prayed so earnestly.
‘I will believe it. you… … .’
