A room with the lights off.
Light leaking from multiple monitors.
Crack! Crash!
Cheat typed something at an invisible speed.

[Location: Italy]
[Grotte di Castellana]
A member of the villain group Rebellion.
Among them, for Cheat, whose specialty was hacking, checking the location of the tracking device was a very simple task.
“Hmm, Italy~?”
Bingle.
Cheat playfully turned the chair he was sitting on.
“I’m dizzy~”
Tuk.
Claw grabbed Cheat’s shoulder and spoke in a serious voice.
“Don’t play around. “This is important.”
“I’m serious now. … … maybe?”
Ta-da-da-da!
With a loud keyboard sound, the cheat started tracking again.
Then, he looked at the bright light on the screen and grinned – a cheat that revealed his teeth as sharp as a shark.
“Hmm~ But as expected, the captain is amazing~ I guess lizards actually appear~?”
Castellana Cave, Italy.
The mana that filled the air there was not in a normal form.
“Around here. Overall, the mana density is very high. “The forest I saw last time was high, but 150 times that high?”
“… … Right.”
Even though it doesn’t appear, it increases the mana density around it by 150 times. As expected, the dungeon materializing in the Castellana Cave clearly belonged to a being called the ‘Master of Mana’.
“But this… … .”
However, even though the prediction was correct, the cheat quenched its appetite and enlarged the screen.
“I guess the Association guys smelled it too?”
What you see on the screen are Italy’s 6th level hunters, including Korea’s association president Kang Yu-chan. If these prominent hunters gathered in one place, there was only one reason.
“… … “Is it Reid?”
Most level 7 bosses, including Laplace, who is called the ‘Witch of Disaster’, have nicknames.
The nickname given to the level 7 boss who will soon descend on Italy is ‘Emperor Jong’.
A noble being who reigns supreme over all races. It was a courtesy to the servant of transcendence called the master of mana.
“It’s shocking that a level 7 dungeon is becoming a reality in this day and age… … . A joint venture between Korea and Italy? I thought we were going to fight over food. Times have changed. “Everyone is really cool~ Cool~”
Cheat muttered in a sarcastic tone, but Claw had a point.
‘… … Silver Wind Aden. ‘Did he use his hands?’
If you think about Aden’s colleagues, conquering the level 7 boss was not difficult. Although Rebellion is prone to state-level terrorism, the ‘Legends of the Tower’, including King Gwon, are opponents that even Claw wants to avoid.
“also… … “Is that the only way?”

Clear the 20th floor of the tower.
1st grade flower. Evaluation test.
Semi-final match of national competition.
Shin Yu-seong had a mountain of schedules to complete before finishing his freshman year.
Moreover, if you combine Shin Yu-seong’s performance so far, it can be seen as an achievement that no hunter has been able to achieve in one year.
‘… … The thing with the tightest deadline is the evaluation test.’
Although Shin Yu-seong was careful and did his best in everything, he had no intention of wasting time on exams.
Now, Shin Yu-seong and the party members were too strong to prepare for the school exam.
An entity that destroys the ecosystem, like a giant snakehead fish introduced into a small pond.
Each and every one of them had the ability to change the game of the exam. Of course, Shin Yoo-seong’s skills are out of the question.
‘As expected, the problem now is the tower and the national competition.’
The tower was an unknown structure with an individual ecosystem on each floor.
Hunters call it the word ‘tower’, but in reality, it is a subspace where you don’t know what kind of world will unfold.
Climbing 20 floors of such a tower meant successfully completing 20 reckless adventures that could lead to certain areas.
‘The most important thing among them all. 10th and 20th floors.’
The 10th floor in the tower was commonly called the boss stage.
A place that boasts quests of a different level of difficulty than the previous floor.
‘We need to get our team play right before we get to the 10th floor.’
The power of a party does not end with the strength of each party member.
The true essence of a party is that 3 people create synergy with 10 people. There was no point in forming a party if everyone moved individually without being in sync with each other.
‘Everyone will learn a lot from this climb.’
The last remaining event was the semifinals of the national competition. What made Shin Yu-seong worry was the rules of the semifinals. So far, it has been 1-1 in the form of country vs. country, but not from the semifinals onwards.
The semifinals are a survival game that brings together the teams that have survived so far.
I had no idea what kind of politics and strategy would unfold there.

‘The biggest threat right now is… … ‘It’s a European region.’
Spain.
germany.
And including Italy, where Adela belongs, as many as three teams from European countries survived until the semifinals.
Japan was eliminated, leaving Korea and China.
It was an encouraging achievement compared to East Asian countries, where only two teams remained.
In particular, East Asia, a powerhouse of hunters, is a target of checks for European countries.
‘… … There will definitely be a movement to join forces in Europe, where there are large numbers.’
Of course, Shin Yu-seong thinks the worst case scenario. To carry out such an operation, an overwhelming leader was needed to bring each party together.
If it weren’t for the talent of such a leader, Shin Yu-seong wouldn’t have kept Europe in check. The story is different now.
Now in Italy, Europe.
‘There is Adela.’
The genius of sloth.
A girl who maintained first place in her grade in Korea, a powerhouse of hunters, even though she had never done anything like cutting bones.
Adela Ortensia.
But Adela has changed recently.
In order to defeat his rival named Shin Yu-seong, he was devoting all his time to training.
The slothful genius has found a reason to make efforts.
‘If the European teams really join hands, Adela will be a very difficult opponent.’
Although there are other teams participating, Shin Yu-seong was confident that the game would be centered around Europe and East Asia.
‘If that happens… … .’
Shin Yu-seong smiled leisurely as usual. To prepare for his opponent’s unexpected strategy, Shin Yu-seong held a card that had not yet been shown.

Murmur.
Class S was filled with loud noises from students.
“What, does this make sense?”
“You’re mixing the upper and lower classes?”
“Who the hell are you thinking? “Aren’t the final evaluation exams the same as last year?”
Judging by the fact that they were divided into ‘high level’ and ‘low level’ from the name alone, the grading of characteristics was actually a type of status in the academy. The association’s theory is that even if combat power or performance is low, S-class and other upper-level characteristics can greatly contribute to the hunter world due to their special characteristics.
But at least in Gaon Academy, that formula has been destroyed.
Angela and Sebastian. Lee Si-woo, who single-handedly killed two party members at Clock Tower Academy.
Sumire awakens as a true necromancer by successfully ministering to Dullahan and Succubus.
The strongest first-year student, Shin Yu-seong, also known as Irregular.
As long as there are students in Class F who are stronger than Class S, Gaon Academy’s classification has become meaningless.
“If you look at the fact that only our first-year test was applied like this. “It’s obvious who it’s because of, right?”
Let’s say Chaehyun Lee with a disapproving expression. Min Seonghyuk nodded.
“yes. But I also don’t want the hierarchy between the upper and lower classes to collapse like this.”
Even Min Seong-hyuk, who became the class president of S class, gave a negative evaluation. One of the female students suddenly approached Min Seong-hyuk.
“Ha, that’s right! It would be better if they promoted only a few of the students in Class F. “What is this that makes the quality of all other classes combined?”
The moment the female student aired her complaints in a rapid-fire manner, a student from Class S shouted loudly from the hallway.
“hey! “The list was posted on the bulletin board!”
Only then did Lee Chae-hyun and Min Seong-hyuk turn on their phones and check the list with sullen faces.
[List of partner members]
No.12 [Min Seong-hyuk] [Lee Chae-hyun] [Shin Yu-seong]
Seonghyuk Min and Chaehyun Lee looked at each other as if they had made a promise. A situation in which he became a partner with Shin Yu-seong, who is considered the strongest among first-year students.
“thinking about it. The professors must have had their own thoughts and changed the rules. What we are arguing about is… … .”
Let Min Seong-hyuk get lucky.
“That’s right, I think that goes too far. “Why don’t we just go this time?”
Lee Chae-hyun responded quickly.
A female student with a puzzled look on her face at the sudden change in their attitude. Min Seong-hyuk and Lee Chae-hyun avoided eye contact with each other as if they were embarrassed.
