13.
All hunters start at D-rank.
‘Even the Seven Heroes who reached S+ rank in their previous lives, and even I who experienced regression, are no exception.’
To be promoted to C-class, you must play a promotion match.
E-class gate strategy.
Clear D-class gates 2 or more times.
Acquire 2 or more D-rank skills.
It was a condition for obtaining a C-class promotion ticket.
2. D-class Gate 2nd Attack [1/2]
Seo Yi-jun also needed to attack the D-rank gate once more to receive a promotion ticket.
‘I guess we can solve the <Conqueror of the D-Class Gate> achievement at the same time.’
But there is one problem.
‘To do that, I need to secure a D-class gate entrance ticket.’
As a D-class hunter, it is difficult to obtain even an E-class gate entrance ticket, let alone a D-class one.
‘But if you join the raid team, you won’t be able to complete the achievement.’
The difference in level between Seo Yijun and other hunters is also a difference in level.
This is because only Seo Yi-jun has achieved the preceding feat of <impossible, incomprehensible, unfathomable>.
Inevitably, I had to attack alone.
This time, Kwon Young-woo was able to solve it with a chance, but Seo Yi-jun definitely needed a D-class gate entrance ticket.
‘There is a way.’
Luckily, Seo Yi-jun had a way to get tickets.
“I have to go out for now. You guys go in and rest.”
-Less!
-Less than that~
-Dalgrak!
-Clap clap clap.
Seo Yi-jun came out through the exit.
‘… …Why is this person here?’
And I had to wonder.
I went to the management office to get my hunter ID back and to file a report of Kwon Young-woo’s death.
“I’ve been waiting for you, Hunter Seo Yi-jun. This is Yeon Ha-eun, the head of the Management Bureau.”
The highest ranking official in the Korean administration, with a sharp gaze despite his fatigue, was waiting for him.
‘The timing is good.’
He was the person absolutely necessary to secure a D-class gate entrance ticket. * * *
Before regression.
Korea was one of the seven countries that held out until the end.
Korea was not a hunter powerhouse.
‘The commander went to China a long time ago.’
Nevertheless, the reason why Korea was able to endure until the end.
‘Director of the Korean headquarters of the Management Office, Yeon Ha-eun.’
It was Yeon Ha-eun’s ability that made her the top of the Korean headquarters of the Management Bureau at the age of just over 30.
From Seo Yi-jun’s perspective, joining hands was a person who would benefit in many ways.
‘Before re-entering the Cobalt settlement, I checked with the staff of the management office and left a record of the core sale in the Hunter Mall.’
So, he started dropping clues little by little to make her aware of his existence.
‘I thought it would come in a day or two after Kwon Young-woo’s death was reported.’
However, Seo Yi-jun didn’t know it would come this quickly.
‘Your ability has been proven once again.’
But competence alone is not enough.
If you look at it that way, I’m on my way back from dealing with the one who stood at the top of the Seven Heroes.
‘I need to know what kind of person he is.’
If we do form a relationship, it will be a long-term relationship.
‘I don’t want to get hit in the back of the head in this life.’
A person’s character was as important as his abilities.
In that respect, Yeon Ha-eun passed.
‘A person who was not shaken by foreign love calls, and became the center of the survivors after the final break.’
The actions of a past life are also actions.
Just looking at his attitude towards Seo Yi-jun right now, you can see that.
‘The head of the management office. He is a so-called high-ranking official.’
A person like that takes the time to come all the way to the D-class gate and doesn’t even mention his own business.
‘Because I heard that someone I knew from orphanage was lost.’
He was a delicate person.
However, that does not mean that he was always considerate.
“Our staff will escort you home, Hunter.”
They sent people here under the pretext of helping.
‘You have to do this much.’
I actually liked that part.
Just because you judge someone by their character doesn’t mean you’re looking for a good person.
I’m a workaholic, so I sit in a chair too much, so my pelvis, spine, and cervical vertebrae are free, which is a disadvantage…

‘I’ll fix it later.’
I thought it was worth it to correct it, so I saw it as an advantage.
“Chief.”
Anyway, Seo Yi-jun made a decision.
“I am the one who caused the Black Gate phenomenon in the Cobalt Village.”
“Well, I was planning to make room for it later.”
Yeon Ha-eun sat down again and thought.
‘If Hunter Seo Yi-jun caused the Black Gate phenomenon… … It seems that he was the one who attacked the Kobold village one after another on his own.’
What a prospect with such potential.
It was worth coming down to meet Seo Yi-jun.
Even though I will be recruited by the three major guilds sooner or later, it is important to build relationships like this in advance.
Yeon Ha-eun asked.
“Then let me ask you three questions.”
“As much as you want.”
There are many things I want to know about the Black Gate, but as the head of the Administration, there is one question I must ask first.
“Black Gate phenomenon, doesn’t it harm humanity?”
Is the Black Gate dangerous or not?
“That won’t happen.”
Fortunately, Seo Yi-jun immediately shook his head.
If the risk has been ruled out, it is time to confirm its identity.
“Why does the Black Gate occur?”
“So that I can become more like a hunter.”
Being a hunter means being good at hunting monsters.
The unprecedented phenomenon known as the Black Gate was a phenomenon that occurred in order for the young Hunter in front of him to become stronger.
“Will it happen again?”
“This no longer happens at E-class gates.”
“So you’re saying that it’s different at the gates beyond that?”
“If I attack the D-class gate alone, it will happen again this time.”
“…Is that possible?”
“If only I could go in alone.”
Seo Yi-jun nodded willingly.
‘That’s amazing.’
Yeon Ha-eun was deeply impressed inwardly.
If I could just enter the D-class gate by myself, I would definitely conquer it by myself.
‘It was all Hunter Seo Yi-jun’s intention.’
They are shown entering the Cobalt Village, and are brazenly trading cores in the Hunter Mall… … .
This is because he realized that this entire process was Seo Yi-jun’s grand plan to summon the management office, or perhaps Yeon Ha-eun herself.
‘After losing Hunter Kwon Young-woo, his state of mind must be beyond words, but he still has that kind of tenacity. He is truly a model for hunters.’
I was so impressed.
‘… Something feels strange.’
One question arose.
‘When and how did Hunter Kwon Young-woo die?’
It is not uncommon for new Hunters who choose practical experience instead of basic training to enter the D-rank Gate with advanced Hunters and die.
The opposite case is also very, very rare, but it does happen.
‘A case where a high-level hunter dies while covering for a new hunter who made a mistake.’
But if Kwon Young-woo died protecting himself… … would Seo Yi-jun be so bold and confident in his solo attack?
“This time, it was practically a solo attack.”
Seo Yi-jun added as if he would solve that question.
“… … ?”
Yeon Ha-eun’s confusion grew even bigger.
A virtually solo attack?
Are you saying that Kwon Young-woo died at the starting point and was not active?
But there are no monsters at the Lizard Swamp starting point?
Seo Yi-jun opened his mouth again.
“If Kwon Young-woo meets the conditions, he can imitate not only other people’s skills but also their characteristics.”
“What are the characteristics? What are the conditions?”
Yeon Ha-eun suddenly realized that Seo Yi-jun had not addressed Kwon Young-woo by any title.
It was worth it.
“Kill that guy.”
“… … !”
Kwon Young-woo attempted to take Seo Yi-jun’s life.
The process is unknown, but Seo Yi-jun was the one who survived.
‘He doesn’t look like he’s lying. He doesn’t seem like the kind of person who would do that.’
Yeon Ha-eun didn’t bother asking about the process.
I quietly drank a mug full of espresso.
‘write.’
The caffeine was absorbed quickly and my brain started working quickly.
Yeon Ha-eun remembers the time when humanity was still the lord of all creation, and the end of that time.
‘It’s only been 20 years since the world changed.’
The gate blooming red.
Monsters pouring out.
An era shrouded in darkness where one cannot know even an inch ahead of one’s eyes how the world will change in the future.
It’s a cataclysm.
‘I believed that the Hunters would put an end to this world.’
I joined the management office and supported the hunters with all my might.
As a result, he even earned the title of the world’s youngest headquarters manager.
It’s not that there were no hopes met there
But I couldn’t tell when this darkness would disappear.
‘It wasn’t the existing hunter, it was Seo Yijun Hunter.’
The young man with the delicate lines before his eyes was the torch that would dispel the darkness.
We will continue to do our best to support Korean hunters in the future.
‘I guess I’ll have to start by solving the D-class gate entrance ticket problem.’
This moment.
“Hunter Seo Yijun. Would you be willing to accept a request from the Management Bureau?”
A priority was created. * * *
Area where entry is controlled due to gate occurrence.
Vroom-.
A black sedan with a special license plate reading ‘Management’ pulled in smoothly.
It was a vehicle belonging to the management office.
‘You drive well.’
Seo Yi-jun opened the passenger door and got out, thinking that as he greeted the driver.
“Thank you for your hard work. Thanks to you, I was able to come comfortably.”
Yeon Ha-eun didn’t come in person.
‘Of course it should be like that. The position of the head of the headquarters is not one of leisure.’
As expected, I saw the person clearly.
Yeon Ha-eun decided to assign one of the management office staff to take her place, and Seo Yi-jun personally nominated one person.
“No, it’s my job!”
The name of the large man who responds bravely is Seonwoo Chan.
He was a new employee who issued a hunter’s license to Seo Yi-jun and witnessed him entering and leaving the Cobalt Village.
The reason why Seo Yi-jun designated a new employee as his dedicated person.
“I just remembered that you had a hard time writing reports because of me.”
“… … Well, writing reports is also my job!”
When I asked Yeon Ha-eun, she said that after witnessing Seo Yi-jun, she wrote that it was a refraction phenomenon, but it seems that it was broken quite a bit.
‘Getting scolded isn’t part of the job.’
If you move with Seo Yi-jun, you will be able to achieve results here and there.
“I ask for your continued support, sir.”
“Yes, Hunter!”
I was promoted to manager while working outside the company right away.
The problem is that I’m still immature at handling things.
“I will report this to the director as well!”
That problem was also solved when Yeon Ha-eun decided to receive the report herself.
‘It’s definitely an advantage to report directly to the head of the headquarters.’
“Ugh… … .”
Seonwoochan is shivering while looking at his cell phone screen.
‘I guess it’s not like that.’
You have to experience social life to know.
Seo Yi-jun glanced away.
Woof woof, woof woof, woof woof.
There was a gate.
The gate information observed next to it was completely different from both the Cobalt Village and the Lizard Swamp.
[Hill of Corpses (D)]
[Number of people allowed: Up to 5 people]
[Number of channels remaining: 10/10]
[Number of attacks remaining: 10]
D-class gate, hill of corpses.
There are fewer channels than other gates Seo Yi-jun has been to so far.
It’s a newly built gate, and the number of times it can be conquered is only 10.
That means the difficulty level is high.
Even the guilds that compete fiercely for gate entrance tickets were lukewarm in front of this gate.
Because it is difficult to form a strategy team.
Therefore, these gates are mostly commissioned by the management office to freelance hunters with the ability to conquer them.
‘Chief Yeon Ha-eun introduced me to the perfect gate.’
This time, the first request came to Seo Yi-jun.
The surroundings were deserted.
There is no need to pay attention as you enter the gate alone.
You don’t have to worry about other Hunters being kicked out by the Black Gate phenomenon.
“Have a nice day, Hunter! I’ll be waiting for you here!”
“Yes. I will be back.”
After exchanging greetings with Seonwoochan, Seo Yijun headed to the gate.
[Enter the Hill of Corpses (D).]
A low, gloomy, gray sky.
Seo Yi-jun was standing on the top of a low hill.
The difficulty of Corpse Hill is high due to its unique characteristics.
First of all, the hill where Seo Yi-jun was standing was all that was inside the gate.
Therefore, Seo Yi-jun didn’t need to go around here and there to hunt monsters.
And the hill of corpses.
[The first wave begins.]
It was a wave gate where a certain number of monsters would rush in every hour.
Urgh. Urgh.
Down the hill, a viscous object is heard dragging the ground.
‘It’s unpleasant whenever I hear it.’
Seo Yi-jun frowned.
zombi.
It is a class F monster and an undead monster.
Just like the skeleton soldiers.
Is that why?
Whenever there is talk of undead monsters or necromancer summons, there is one topic that always comes up.
[So, who is better, a skeleton or a zombie?]
-ㅅㅂ I don’t usually point out spelling mistakes, but ‘natal’ in skeleton zombie is a bit much
Which is stronger, a skeleton or a zombie?
‘The appearance is different. Zombies buried in rotten flesh lack the aesthetics of bones.’
First of all, both skeletons and zombies are undead that living people tend to feel aversion to.
‘Zombies can’t even be compared to skeleton soldiers. It’s so unpleasant to be compared to them.’
It’s the same undead, same F-class, so how different can it be?
‘The zombies are slow and bursting.’
Although the skeleton has the advantage of speed, the zombie’s power offsets it.
In fact, whether it’s speed or power, it’s only a story between F-class, and both are slow and weak.
‘It’s not worth discussing.’
After all, the answer is already out there.
‘The skeleton soldier has the upper hand.’
He is he.
