Kanto region of Japan.
The national park in Tochigi Prefecture, known for its beauty, had the best academy in Japan.
Choten (頂点)
As its name suggests, it is the best academy that is sweeping various competitions in Japan.
And the strongest among the first years is the Hunter Club.
A unique club in Choten where all students are hunters and uses the name Hunter Club.
In Choten, there were only 9 students belonging to the Hunter Club. In other words, the Hunter Club is the most elite in Japan. However, Seiji’s party’s three team members were all elite members of the Hunter Club.
A top-notch player who has never experienced a single failure so far. However, in the competition in Korea, she was pushed to third place by Adela, who competed alone, and lost with a record.
“It’s a new meteor! This is truly amazing! “You can’t believe you defeated Adella with an F-class trait!”
Seiji, the party leader, laughs heartily as he reads the article. Sakura, sitting at the desk, shook her legs and smiled.
“Hmm, I didn’t see your skills. The face is amazing. Totally my style!”
Isshin frowned at Sakura’s playful laughter.
“… … Take it seriously. Cherry Blossom.”
Sakura pointed her thumb down behind Isshin. A kind of rebellion.
“see.”
However, at Isshin’s words, Sakura slowly lowered her hand.
“But I can use this opportunity to test my skills. Isn’t it good? “If we attack together, we can see the opponent up close.”
Sakura, who was speaking seriously, added something as if Isshin was listening.
“Don’t misunderstand~ I’m talking about skills~ I’m not talking about face?”
“… … “A useless story.”
Nervous Isshin.
Seiji, the party leader, laughed as he mediated between the two.
“that’s right. It’s a good opportunity to prepare for the competition. “It will be the same for your opponent!”
Sakura, who was listening to the story, pushed back her hair. Her hair, flowing from sky to sky following her hand, resembled cherry blossoms.
“It’s not fun. But who are the other party members coming with you?”
Seiji immediately opened his mouth to Sakura’s question.
“Hmm, the rumor is that the 3rd ranked student from Gaon joined Shin Yu-seong’s party?”
“Hmm, I guess we’ll come in third place as expected. But isn’t she a girl? Ah~ I’m so disappointed~ They both must be pink.”
Sakura’s face became trembled.
Isshin slowly stood up.
“… … If only I had the skills to have my back. “I don’t care about anyone.”
Isshin sets the mood and chants.
Sakura imitated Isshin’s mouth from behind.
‘I’m in the middle of nowhere~’
Seiji eventually burst out laughing while looking at Sakura.
“cook!”
Isshin placed his hand on the empty waist belt as if holding a sword sheath.
“I would have said I could see it.”
Take a peek.
This time, Sakura quietly took a step back and frowned. The two acted like enemies, as if they were going to eat them.
However, it is Seiji, the party leader, who provides the balance here.
“Okay then! “Let’s go meet the guests quickly!”
Seiji patted the two on their backs and smiled brightly.

Tochigi Prefecture, Japan.
Shin Yu-seong and Sumire passed through the portal.
Sumire, who returned to Japan after a long time, was clearly excited.
“Shin Yu-seong! This! “This dango is really delicious!”
Sumire is a Japanese style rice cake skewer. Dango. Sumire came with both hands full of dango with various sauces to give Shin Yu-seong a taste.
“This sauce is soy sauce! This is a smile! “This is honey!”
As he walked to his destination, Shin Yu-seong tasted each piece of dango.
‘… … Did you bake rice cake? ‘That’s genius.’
Shin Yu-seong is deeply satisfied with even the simple snacks. Sumire, who was excited, kept bringing food here and there.
“Hey, here! “We also have takoyaki!”
no. 1.
“Rice, shaped like a chick… … Manju! This thing is so cute you can’t eat it, right?”
No.2.
“There’s a ramen restaurant over there!”
number 3.
Shin Yu-seong, who eats endless amounts of food despite his thin body, and Sumire who continually recommends food. The harmony between the two was truly fantastic.
After a pleasant walk, we arrived at the national park.
Shin Yuseong and Sumire sat on a wooden bench and talked.
“Well, you must be so excited. No more… … “I can’t eat it.”
“It was fun.”
Sumire smiles happily at Shin Yu-seong’s answer while holding the chocolate banana. That was a smile that Sumire would never have been able to make before meeting Shin Yooseong.
“… … This, before I came to Japan. I had a lot of worries. “I guess it was a pointless idea.”
“worry?”
Sumire, lost in thought at Shin Yusung’s question, wiggled her fingers.

“just… … .”
But I couldn’t answer in detail. I don’t know why, but Sumire wanted to hide her weak and ugly side from her god, Yusei, as much as possible.
“W-in many ways!”
Sumire forced a smile while saying that. Japan, where her family is located, is Sumire’s home country where she grew up. It made Sumire lost in many thoughts.
‘I am … … ‘I ran away from Japan.’
[Because of you! Just a teacher for no reason!]
[Damn it! Should I end up in the hospital because of an idiot like you?]
[how… … What are you thinking, Isshin? Why like that… … .]
When I think about it, it was natural for me to be bullied by my classmates. It all happened because of his own reckless driving. The only emotion Sumire felt for harming her was regret.
After meeting Shin Yooseong, she thought this time was different, but Sumire still had a heavy burden in her heart.
‘That’s how I am…’ … ‘Is it okay to be happy?’
Sumire thought that even if it wasn’t her, Shin Yusung could meet a good party member. Because the strong and upright Shin Yu-seong deserved it.
‘I am… … ‘Maybe I’m not qualified?’
As her thoughts continued, her happy feeling subsided, and familiar questions eroded Sumire’s self-esteem.
“Sumire?”
Shin Yu-seong’s voice is heard from next to him. Sumire answered without thinking.
“yes!?”
“Now it’s time to go to Choten.”
Sumire pursed her lips at Choten’s name. Choten Academy, where Japan’s representatives are waiting. Now it was time for Sumire to face the past she had run away from.

A hospital room at Metro Hospital.
Next to Kim Jun-hyuk, who was lying in bed for his final treatment, Kim Eun-ah told him one by one the stories that had happened over the past two years.
“So, we held a counter-protest at the water park. Oh, you probably forgot, right? Do you remember? “The place we went together.”
“then. know.”
Kim Junhyuk smiled and nodded.
Kim Eun-ah looked at Kim Jun-hyuk with a sour face.
“Again, people get really depressed for no reason. “Does your brother know that?”
“… … That’s right. “I’m sorry.”
“Is that the expression of a sorry person?”
Eunah Kim narrows her eyes. Kim Junhyuk scratched his head.
“But Eun-ya. I’m just saying that because I’m really curious… … .”
“what.”
Kim Jun-hyuk asked with a puzzled look on Kim Eun-ah’s sullen expression.
“I heard you joined the party?”
“How did you know that?”
Kim Eun-ah had completely left out the story about the party. But Kim Jun-hyuk heard it from someone.
“Haha, Lee Soo-hyun… … .”
“… … “How much did you hear?”
“Your party leader. “Are you even talking about how you personally saved me?”
“okay?”
Kim Eun-ah made a hmm sound.
‘Well, that’s an important story.’
Just when I was trying to calmly pass it over. Junhyuk Kim added.
“And that you stayed in a tent?”
“No, then you heard everything! That and! There was another girl too! “Why do you keep leaving her out!”
Kim Eun-ah’s face is red and she’s running wild all the time. Kim Jun-hyuk laughed haha.
After laughing, Kim Jun-hyuk, who became calmer, smiled leisurely.
“… … Still, you are a very grateful student. “You’re fighting against Rebellion as a student.”
“what, … … So I signed up. Debts have to be paid off, right? Of course, until the competition ends… … .”
Kim Eun-ah lies down on the bed.
Kim Jun-hyuk slowly stroked Kim Eun-ah’s head and smiled.
‘… … ‘Is it family after all?’
Kim Eun-ah looked very similar to Kim Jun-hyuk himself. Although the mind is weak, the pride is strong. Even the fact that I am very bad at expressing myself first.
“Now then, Eun-ya?”
“ok?”
“To the benefactor who saved my life. I’d like to express my gratitude in person… … .”
Kim Jun-hyuk thought that this time, as his older brother, he should step forward.
“Your party leader. Student Shin Yu-seong… … Where are you now?”
Kim Eun-ah’s answer to Kim Jun-hyuk’s question was simple.
“japan.”
Kim Jun-hyuk was taken aback as the distance was farther than he expected.
“… … japan?”
“okay. Because the patient can never go. Rest quietly?”
Kim Jun-hyuk smiled shyly at Kim Eun-ah’s bloody eyes. Two years of hiatus. While I wasn’t seeing her, my younger sister Kim Eun-ah had become too strong in many ways.

The exterior of Choten Academy.
The three members of the Hunter Club were waiting for Shin Yu-seong at the head table overlooking the beautiful natural scenery.
“It’s almost the promised time.”
Seiji spoke while checking the pockets on his wrists. Sakura suddenly got up from her seat.
“Isshin. Don’t just speak Japanese like before. “It’s not polite to do that even though you speak Korean well.”
Isshin clicked his tongue as if he didn’t like Sakura.
Nowadays, if you have a pocket, translating languages is no problem. The past when pockets were not created.
Humanity needed a [common language] for smooth communication.
The process of choosing an official language was simple.
Influence at the top of the country. Thanks to this, the country chosen as the official language was Korea, which discovered most of the technology used in pockets.
Because Korea had many gates and dungeons, it produced strong hunters and was able to dominate the top.
The cursed disaster of Outbreak, which was thought to be a bad news, happened to strengthen the nation’s power.
In the current generation, the number of hunters targeting the tower in other countries has increased, but Korean has already been completely established as the official language.
“okay. Knowing how to speak It’s not good to ignore your opponent for no reason. “We are now a party that will attack the dungeon together.”
While Seiji was laughing, someone walked from afar.
Jump and jump.
The opponent, of course, is Shin Yu-seong, wearing Gaon’s school uniform. Sakura, who was laughing, looked embarrassed when she saw Sumire standing next to Shin Yusung.
“uh?”
If you think about it, Gaon had three people participate in the association’s competition. However, Choten Academy only remembered the names of Shin Yu-seong and Adella.
“The rest of Gaon’s party members… … .”
Seiji, the party leader, looked at Isshin with a puzzled look. It was surprising. The party member was Japanese. It’s also a very familiar face.
“… … what.”
Seiji and Sakura’s eyes focused on Isshin’s muttering voice, as if he had made a promise. Isshin wakes up with a frown on his face.
Sumire kept her mouth shut, as if she had expected this whole situation.
“Well, I… … .”
Sumire’s voice becomes blurred as she tries to say something.
bang!
Isshin hit the wall hard enough to make a sound. He looked down at Sumire with contempt in his eyes.
“Why are you… … .”
