The best academy in Korea.
1st place in Gaon’s grade ranking. The strongest first-year student, according to everyone.
Adela Ortensia entered the image room. Although it was her time off, Adela did not neglect her training.
“background. random.”
A cold voice that seems to freeze your bones.
Adela’s expression was as emotionless as a robot.
[The background was designated as a field.]
Let the hologram create the background. The cool breeze swayed her silver hair beautifully.
“To level 4. “Three.”
[Sparring Monster. Level 4 difficulty, 3 centaurs set.]
Crackling!
What the hologram created was a monster with a human head and the body of a horse. The centaur boasted a tall and muscular body, in contrast to the slender Adela.
“Krrrng!”
“human! “I’ll crush you!”
Although it was a hologram, the Centaur’s intimidation was incredible.
The image room is a space that embodies all five senses of battle. The floor shook as the centaur charged.
Thump thump thump!
Adela stretched out her hand towards the floor with emotionless eyes.
Jump! Damn it!
Then everything froze.
In the world of ice where Adela was frozen, only she was free.
bang! bang! Clink!
The frozen centaurs were shattered like carved statues.
“Weak.”
Adela said.
Even though I came from Korea, which is said to be the strongest country, to an academy that is considered the best.
“Too weak… … .”
Her opponents were too weak. So Adela continued to feel empty. If Shin Yu-seong had trained his body under King Kwon. Adella was a hunter who only honed her characteristics.
And her characteristics are S grade.
Adela had the qualities to become the strongest hunter not only in Gaon but also in the world. No wonder he had no opponent.
[You have updated your highest score.]
Adela was never happy to hear mechanical sounds congratulating her.
[Image Room – 1st Year Records]
[1st place – Adela Ortensia]
[Total of 15,000 points for 3 grade 4 monsters]
Adela, who was indifferently trying to close the hologram window, discovered an interesting name.
[9th place – Shin Yu-seong]
[5 grade 3 monsters total 10000 points]
“… … “The King’s disciple?”
Adela is the only hunter who defeated her grandfather. She did not forget King Yuwonhak of Kwon. Maybe that’s why Shin Yu-seong’s name lingered in Adella’s mouth.
“… … God, shooting star.”
Although he entered class F with F-grade characteristics. Shin Yu-seong achieved 9th place just one day after taking the class. This wasn’t simply a matter of her skills.
Adella still had an expressionless expression, but she seemed to be interested in Shin Yu-seong’s actions.
‘If he really inherited King Kwon’s skills… … .’
As proof, Adela looked at Shin Yu-seong’s name written on the hologram for a long time.

Gathering time for potions.
Class F went out to practice in the forest within the grounds of Gaon Academy.
“… … “What on earth is a weed and what is an herb?”
“They all look similar.”
“Ugh, the flowers… … “There are too many of the same colors.”
Most students found collecting difficult. Shin Yu-seong was talking leisurely with Lee Si-woo, pointing to a red flower.
“This is a flower called Heines.”
“wow. Did you find it again? “Is this toxic too?”
Lee Si-woo asked with interest. Shin Yu-seong shook his head.
“Not usually. but… … .”
Shin Yu-seong crushed Haines’ petals on the stem of the plant he had collected earlier. Then, the two became more and more sticky and turned into a purple slime.
“If you combine it with the stem of Hajid like this, it will cause fatal food poisoning. “It’s impossible to live a normal life for almost a day.”
“and! “Where on earth did you acquire this knowledge?”
Lee Si-woo asked in surprise.
Shin Yu-seong, who was searching through his memories, also remembered his conversation with King Kwon.
[Yuseong, you are a hunter! A guy with a lot of knowledge will thrive! Even if you know just one seemingly useless herb! You say it saves lives in times of emergency?]
Shin Yu-seong, who was 7 years old at the time, was collecting herbs that King Kwon had mentioned. He wandered here and there on the mountain. Instead, thanks to his training at that time, Shin Yu-seong was able to have more than a senior level of knowledge about medicinal herbs and poisonous plants.
“I learned it from my teacher.”
“S-If it’s Master! King Yu Won-hak!? “It’s really the best!”
Lee Si-woo’s eyes shine and he likes it.
The students who were watching began to whisper as they saw the two looking friendly.

“I guess you’re nicer than the rumors say?”
“Hey, don’t you know the devil of the sparring hall? In class D, Joo Ha-jin gets excited just by hearing Shin Yu-seong’s name! “How much would it take to do that?”
“I beat you to death… … .”
All the students in the same class had questions. Why is Lee Si-woo okay? Why do you get along well with Lee Si-woo? One student, who was looking at Shin Yu-seong and Lee Si-woo alternately, narrowed his eyes and muttered.
“… … Aren’t cute people okay? “Why are there so many people who are weak to cute things?”
Sumire, who was eavesdropping on the students’ conversation, wrote something down in her notebook.
[memo! Shin Yu-seong is weak to cute men!]
The cute thing turned into a cute guy, but Sumire didn’t notice. Of course, Shin Yu-seong, the person involved, was talking with Lee Si-woo, not knowing that strange rumors were spreading following his nickname as the devil of Dalian.
“Master taught me many things other than fighting.”
“Learning this and that directly from the King… … .”
Lee Si-woo was excited as if it were his own work. I asked Shin Yu-seong with a smile.
“Oh right. Yoosung! “Have you finished preparing for the test?”
“… … test?”
Shin Yu-seong recalled the words of principal Jin Byeong-cheol. He definitely mentioned something about grade rankings.
‘Now that I think about it, they said that if your ranking is high, you will be moved to a good dormitory.’
Of course, the dormitory was not very important to Shin Yu-seong. Compared to the days of sleeping in a cave in the wind and rain. The current dormitory was closer to a hotel.
‘If there’s a problem. It’s not a dormitory, it’s something external… … .’
Students with low rankings were subject to many penalties from the academy. Participation in various off-campus events was restricted, and current grades were important for hunter activities after graduation.
‘If you aim to be the strongest hunter like your teacher. Because academy grades are basic.’
In fact, King Kwon was in his academy days. He once participated as a representative in a national competition. Although the opponents were diverse, they ultimately won, raising Korea’s status.
It was thanks to such feats that he was called a legend in the hunter world.
Lee Si-woo looked at Shin Yu-seong in worry and smiled mischievously.
“no way! Don’t worry too much! Luck is important, but with your skills, you will get good grades!”
“Do all the other students know the test content?”
“hmm… … . There is nothing set in stone, but the general outline is similar. Until now, my partner informed me the day before the exam started. “The events were always similar.”
Shin Yu-seong expressed his disapproval at being called a partner. King Gwon repeatedly emphasized the strength of the hunters, but at least the students in class F seemed far from strong.
“Partner… … .”
The test partner is usually the student with the highest ability in the class. And we matched the student with the lowest ability. In class F, Shin Yu-seong is a person with unrivaled skills. Therefore, being the party member with the lowest grades suited Shin Yu-seong.
Gaon Academy’s last place was Sumire Hanajima, who ranked 209th out of 209 people excluding Shin Yuseong, who had no ranking. Sumire, who happened to be in her party, glanced at Shin Yooseong and muttered softly.
“Okay, partner… … .”
* * *
8 p.m. It’s too early to go to sleep.
Shin Yu-seong entered the dormitory and sat down on an old chair.
Creak.
Beyond the glass, I could see the site of Gaon Academy. The endless rain drenched the whole world.
“… … rain.”
Shin Yu-seong recalled a memory from when he was 5 years old.
It rained endlessly that day too. But what made Shin Yu-seong cold was not the soaking rain.
[Anyway, you won’t be able to survive in the Shinoil family with F-grade characteristics.]
Shin Yu-seong still remembered those cold eyes. A look that will freeze you to your bones, as if you are looking at something insignificant. That was absolutely not the way to look at a child. After saying those words, the man who was Shin Yu-seong’s father left without even looking back.
And the person who was the mother dismissed the claim by giving the director of the orphanage a bag containing a large sum of money.
[It wouldn’t be a bad idea to give up being a hunter and live a normal life.]
The Shinno family tolerated non-talented people who were not hunters, but they did not tolerate the disgrace of being graded F. She can be tested for traits at age 5. Shin Yu-seong was abandoned like that.
But King Kwon was different.
Yu Won-hak said this on the first day he saw Shin Yu-seong.
[Little! You are truly blessed with incredible talent!]
He smiled brightly and added to Shin Yu-seong, who was abandoned by his parents because he was born with F-class characteristics.
[Why don’t you become my disciple and become the strongest hunter?]
It didn’t rain that day, but heavy raindrops fell on Shin Yu-seong’s feet. Age of 5. Ironically, Shin Yu-seong was abandoned because of her talent, and chosen because of her talent.
“… … Shinno family.”
Shin Yu-seong, who was lost in reminiscing, opened his mouth. And then slowly opened the glass veranda door.
Shoot!
The rain was like a downpour.
Of course, the five-year-old Shin Yu-seong and the current Shin Yu-seong were different people. He was no longer a member of the Shinno family. I wasn’t even a 5-year-old abandoned in an orphanage.
“I am… … .”
Shin Yu-seong was King Kwon’s only disciple.
He was a decent hunter aiming for the strongest position. He is the god oil who abandoned him. The King who chose him. And to everyone in the world who persecuted Hunter for his rank, Shin Yu-seong wanted to prove it through his existence.
“Become the strongest.”
Gaon Academy was just a staircase for Shin Yu-seong to reach his goal.
