Chapter 365
Shin Yu-seong climbed Mt. Musin alone.
It was a return for a little less than a year, and on the other hand, Mt. Musin was like a hometown where Shin Yu-seong had spent 12 years since he was 5 years old.
with a splash-
Rainwater splashed down the familiar stone steps, and mountain birds chirped with beautiful voices under the trees to avoid the falling rain.
‘It’s only been a year since I left Mt. Musin… … It feels really long.’
Shin Yu-seong remembered himself holding Yu Won-hak’s hand and climbing the stairs for the first time. Everything was new and difficult for him at first, but thanks to his teacher’s teachings, he was soon able to get used to it.
“Ah, this place… … .”
Shin Yu-seong saw a stream swollen with rainwater. In order to cross the stream, he had to step on stones like stepping stones, but when he was young, he was afraid of water, so a crane once carried him across the bridge.
My childhood self was so weak. He didn’t know what to be, he could be anything, he couldn’t be anything.
‘There is a possibility, but… … A stone with no name.’
If someone had called an F-class trait an inherently defective product, it would have been so. He must have lived his whole life thinking of himself as a rock, without knowing his own value.
How can you trust yourself when you have been abandoned by your parents?
However, Yu Won-hak called Shin Yu-seong a jewel. They recognized its value and ground and cleaned a rock that did not even have a name.
It started from then.
Shin Yu-seong was not a kid abandoned by the Shinno family, but a hunter chosen by King Gwon. He was the only disciple raised by the strongest hunter.
People are now calling Shin Yu-seong the best rookie. Among the countless students attending Hunter Academy, Shin Yu-seong was selected as the best talent to lead Korea.
As more than 10 years have passed, a lot has changed from when I first climbed Mt. Musin to where I am now.
“ah… … .”
The rain has stopped.
A blue bird flew and landed on Shin Yu-seong’s shoulder. Shin Yu-seong smiled because she felt like it was welcoming her back after a long time.
“I’m back.”
Shin Yu-seong said one day while looking at the cave where he stayed. From the top of the tree, a deep, low-pitched voice asked a question as if it had been waiting.
“What did you learn?”
King Yu Won-hak landed in front of Shin Yu-seong with very light movements that were unbecoming of his large size.
“hmm… … .”
Shin Yu-seong stopped talking as he faced Yu Won-hak in front of him. It was very difficult for him to guess what he had learned and what he felt in the span of a year.
“I learned to trust my colleagues.”
Just as his teacher Yu Won-hak believed in him, Shin Yu-seong truly believed in Sumire, who had low self-esteem due to a series of events.
As a result, Sumire has now become the best necromancer, Shin Yu-seong’s colleague, and someone he can trust and rely on.
“… … and?”
Yu Won-hak asked while smiling in satisfaction.
Shin Yu-seong recalled what he had experienced one by one.
“I met many people and felt emotions that I could not feel on Mt. Musin, including joy, anger, sadness, and tenderness… … “I learned how to be tough.”
Yu Won-hak nodded, hmm. He was silent for a while and sat down in a slightly wet spot.
“Have you made friends you can trust and entrust with your life?”
Sumire. Eunah Kim. Adela. Lee Si-woo. From Amy to Shin Yu-seong, I made many colleagues and built bonds together. Shin Yu-seong was able to trust his colleagues. He was trustworthy above all else.
So, I answered Yu Won-hak’s question without any hesitation.
“… … yes. “Master.”
Yu Won-hak touched his chin with a thick hand in response to Shin Yu-seong’s clear answer filled with only trust and not a single doubt.
“Right. That’s right… … .”
Shin Yu-seong calmly watched Yu Won-hak’s appearance. Yu Won-hak, whom he first met, was a strict teacher, but Shin Yu-seong knew that such aspects were not all that Yu Won-hak was.
His teacher, Yu Won-hak, was a lonely person. He was a man who chose the path of a hunter instead of a peaceful life with a witch because he had someone precious to him and did not want to create regrets.
He was a man who tried to walk the extremely lonely path to becoming the strongest.
“Now you have your own fighting spirit… … Are you walking your own path?”
Shin Yu-seong closed his eyes.
Is the ‘something’ that passes between your fingertips following a ray of dry wind really the flow of time?
Finely scattered photos passed by indifferently before my closed eyes.
“that… … .”
Shin Yu-seong trailed off.
The year given to Shin Yu-seong was a series of learning and learning. He learned how to use his power to save others, and he continued to ask himself what the right power was.
“Can’t you answer?”
On a day when the moon on the lake was so beautiful, I saw the color of mana that only I could see, and because my body was different from usual, I was able to gain enlightenment through that difference.
okay. Clearly, Shin Yu-seong was walking his own path. It was a path that only Shin Yu-seong, with his natural talent and experience combined, could walk, and it was very different from the path Yu Won-hak had walked.
okay. That’s what teaching is, I guess.
From teacher to disciple.
As son to father.
And it’s not just humans. The teaching will continue in some form.
“… … No, Master. “I found my own fighting spirit.”
As time passes and generations pass, new things are transformed and created. Nevertheless, the colors that spread like beautiful paint do not turn black or fade. It just sparkled beautifully in each color. Nothing disappears in vain. Something is bound to remain.
“Thanks to your teachings, I have found my own path… … “I’m walking.”
Shin Yu-seong got down on one knee and bowed his head. This was just gratitude. It was a greeting from a student who calmly suppressed his overflowing emotions because words cannot contain all of his emotions.
On the other hand, Yu Won-hak’s voice contained a very lonely and overwhelming emotion.
“I regret it.”
Shin Yu-seong had never heard such a weak sentence from Yu Won-hak’s mouth before. In the end, Shin Yu-seong met his teacher’s eyes, unable to hide his surprise.
Yu Won-hak placed his hand on Shin Yu-seong’s head. She said that Shin Yoo-seong stroked her head like she did that day when she was a five-year-old kid.
“If only I had tasted something so happy a little earlier… … “How great it would have been.”
Shin Yu-seong couldn’t believe it. I couldn’t answer anything. To Shin Yu-seong, Yu Won-hak has always been a strong being. It was the strongest being. He was like a strict father.

“Yuseong.”
The voice of a teacher who is so kind, now reaching old age.
“… … “Yes, Master.”
Perhaps because he lowered his head, Shin Yu-seong’s voice became subdued. The person in front of him was not the strongest hunter, King Yu Won-hak. He was just an old man.
“I was a coward who ran away from happiness my whole life. Even making friends… … It really took a long time. “Even that required a big decision for me.”
Yu Won-hak placed his hands on both Shin Yu-seong’s shoulders. Yu Won-hak’s eyes were full of trust.
“You are different from me.”
Yu Won-hak grabbed the broken beam of light between the leaves. It looked as if the beam of light could not be caught in his huge hand, but it eventually escaped his hand.
“You will become a better and stronger hunter than me. “Yuseong, walk your own path.”
Shin Yu-seong knew instinctively. This is the last lesson a teacher gives to his disciple. It was truly a process of descending Mt. Musin.
“The day you reach the truth of the tower. The day we reach the Hunter’s secret wish… … “I don’t trust Yoosung’s choice.”
Although it was so sudden, it was a moment that would come someday.
“Go down.”
There are no more teachings.
So Shin Yu-seong had to go down Mt. Musin. It was time for him to find and climb his own mountain and forge his own path. How many encounters await, how much joy, and how much sorrow we will experience.
However, Shin Yu-seong did not give up and had no choice but to walk silently.
Cheok!
Shin Yu-seong stood up, looked at Yu Won-hak, and took a bow with courtesy.
“until now… … . really.”
Memories are scattered.
Even just a year ago, Shin Yu-seong’s memories were all about Mt. Musin.
Some days we climbed trees to sleep, ran away from wild boars, and grilled meat over a campfire. He learned to punch and he learned to kick.
I was praised, I was scolded, I learned manners, and I knew respect.
Shin Yu-seong knew.
It was thanks to Yu Won-hak that he was able to heal from his wounds.
“… … thanked. “Master.”
Yu Won-hak now had no choice but to admit it. His actions, which had been aimed simply at creating the strongest hunter and receiving disciples who would continue the martial art, had suddenly changed.
Very late old age.
I just regained the happiness I had previously given up on.
“There is nothing to be thankful for. It was a really fun time… … When I remember, only you come to mind. I wonder why it feels so short… … .”
Cheok-!
Yu Won-hak patted Shin Yu-seong’s back, who had somehow lost his energy, and shouted to encourage him.
“Don’t give up at any moment! Yoosung, there is no wall you can’t climb. “You are a hunter who will pioneer a path even if it means breaking down the walls that block you.”
“Master… … .”
So Shin Yu-seong turned his head with a smile. Shin Yu-seong remembered the day he first descended Mt. Musin. I couldn’t hide the pounding of my heart because of the future I was looking forward to. It was so full of joy and fulfillment that I couldn’t stop walking even for a moment.
chin. Jerk. chin. with a splash.
But this time was different.
Shin Yu-seong took such heavy steps with his heart, engraving new memories and meanings with each step.
I slowly went down the mountain, holding in my arms the old teachings that may have faded after quite a long time.
King Kwon looked at Shin Yu-seong’s back and muttered with a kind face.
“If I were the king of power, Yooseong would be the god of war. A commitment to save this world with your two fists… … .”
