Trait Absorption Hunter Hunter Episode 75
75. Classmates
High school classmates gathered together for the first time in a long time.
“Here it is, here it is.”
“Su-hwan, it’s been a while!”
“Has it been almost two years since graduation?”
“I used to meet Soo-hwan often.”
“Did you call Taeyoung too?”
“Then you called them. You called Minji and Soojung too?”
Daughter-
The men sitting in the restaurant talking turned their gaze toward the door.
An ordinary woman wearing glasses and a woman with a model-like body were walking towards me.
Minji and Sujeong were in the same class in the first grade.
“Hi, nice to meet you guys.”
“Minji and Soojung, right?”
“Hey, you guys have changed so much I can’t even recognize you?”
Then the women started shouting.
“What? It’s the same as before.”
“Hey, you can tell just by looking at me that I touched your face.”
“What the hell are you talking about? It’s because of the makeup.”
“If you say something like that in front of Dojun later, you’ll die?”
“What? You put on makeup to look good in front of Dojun?”
“This is real!”
The men laughed out loud.
It was possible for us to joke around like this because we were friends without any selfish motives.
But among these people, regardless of gender, there was no one who did not have selfish motives toward Min Do-jun.
“Is Dojun coming?”
“When did you come?”
“It’s 6 o’clock, so he’ll be here soon.”
“Are you really coming?”
“Dojun has decided the time, so he will definitely come.”
“Just try to make a joke.”
“Hey, Im Soo-jung. Is it a bit suspicious that you’re obsessed with Do-jun?”
“Be honest. Do you like Dojun?”
Lim Soo-jung shouted angrily.
“What are you talking about? I’m just saying that because it’s been a while since I’ve seen it!”
“You weren’t that close with Dojun when you were in school.”
“Yeah, I’ve never seen her talk to Dojun.”
“Oh, no! We’ve talked about it a few times.”
It was a lie.
Im Soo-jung didn’t even know that Min Do-jun was in the same class.
No, I didn’t even know it existed.
I only found out about it when I heard from my classmates that a hunter came out of the same class.
It was from that time that I suddenly became interested.
Daughter-
When the store door opened, everyone’s eyes turned to one place.
It didn’t take long for anticipation to turn to disappointment.
“Hey, it’s Hyungchan.”
“I thought it was Dojun again.”
The person who disappointed his classmates was Lim Hyeong-chan.
“Why are you so late?”
“What? I’m only three minutes late?”
“But you have to come quickly. Sit here.”
Lim Hyeong-chan, who had been needlessly bullied, glanced across from him as he sat down.
‘There’s a correction too?’
Im Soo-jung was his first love in high school.
Although we were in the same class, I was too shy to talk to him and only liked him inside.
In a word, it’s first love and unrequited love.
‘You’ve become prettier since you became an adult. Hehe… … .’
The corners of my mouth went up without me knowing it.
Im Soo-jung frowned at the sight and turned her gaze away.
‘What the heck? That pervert. He’s annoying.’
She didn’t recognize Lim Hyeong-chan because she wasn’t interested in the boys in her class.
Strictly speaking, it was like our first meeting.
That’s why I couldn’t help but make a strange expression when Lim Hyeong-chan approached me.
“Sujeong, your last name is Im, right?”
“……however?”
“I’m also Mr. Lim. Mr. Lim Hyeong-chan.”

“……so?”
When I responded coldly, Lim Hyeong-chan scratched his cheek in embarrassment.
“I just wanted to talk to you since we were in the same class and never really talked before.”
“… … .”
Lim Soo-jung kept her mouth shut as if she wasn’t interested.
Lim Hyeong-chan felt the need to get attention.
“I work at the Hunter Management Center. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.”
At those words, Im Soo-jung’s previously indifferent eyes regained their vitality.
‘Okay, that got my attention!’
Lim Hyeong-chan felt good just by having the person he liked make eye contact with him.
“Really? You work at the Hunter Management Center?”
“huh.”
“Then can I check other people’s rankings too?”
“Of course. You can easily check it on your tablet. Just a moment.”
Lim Hyeong-chan opened the bag he had brought and took out a tablet.
“Just type in the name here and you’ll find out. Who cares?”
“Min Do-jun.”
At those words, his hands, which were trying to manipulate the tablet, stopped.
Because it was the name he hated the most.
‘Why that kid?’
As Im Hyeong-chan remained silent, Im Soo-jung urged him on.
“What? Why are you still here? Can’t you search?”
“Oh, no. I can do it.”
‘He must be showing interest simply because we’re classmates… … .’
Lim Hyeong-chan looked at Min Do-jun with an anxious heart.
“I’m ranked 585th in the country… … and I’m level 1,400… … .”
Lim Hyeong-chan trailed off at the overwhelming level.
‘How come this kid’s level goes up so quickly every day?’
I could tell because I was trained as a person in charge.
How ridiculous the speed of Min Do-jun’s leveling is.
“Wow, that’s a pretty high ranking. Isn’t that 500th out of 40,000 people?”
“Wow! Is it true that you’re level 1,400?”
“How long has it been since you turned twenty?”
Unlike the men’s enthusiasm, the women’s reaction was lukewarm.
It was because I didn’t know much about the hunter industry.
“What? Level 1,400 is high?”
“That’s so tall!”
“What is the grade?”
“It’s a B-class. Soon it’ll be an A-class.”
The women who had been understanding grades rather than levels opened their eyes wide.
“Even if you only get a B grade, you’ll earn a lot of money, right?”
“What is a B-class? Even if you only get an F-class, your annual salary is over 100 million won.”
“Really? I thought everyone below C-class were maggots… … .”
“Then how much does Dojun, who is a B-class, earn?”
“Don’t I know that? You should ask Hyungchan.”
Everyone’s eyes were focused on Lim Hyeong-chan.
“Hyungchan, you know that right? B-class hunter income.”
“How much is it on average?”
Lim Hyeong-chan, who felt unnecessarily jealous, said something that deliberately reduced the profit.
“… … You could probably earn ten million won a day?”
“Wow… … This is crazy.”
“I only have to work for 3 days to get my annual salary?”
“Then how many billions does Dojun earn?”
Even though he spoke in a low tone, the men praised Min Do-jun, who was not even there, saying that he was great.
The women were quickly calculating their salaries in their heads.
And when I reached the conclusion of 3.6 billion, I gulped.
“Dojun succeeded.”
“You’re amazing at such a young age.”
Im Hyeong-chan felt annoyed at the sight and retorted without realizing it.
“Even so, Hunter, that’s just luck.”
“luck?”
The women countered that they had heard something though.
“But isn’t it true that you can’t be a hunter just by having luck?”
“Yeah. I heard you need to have skills too?”
“If I were you, I think I’d be too scared to fight.”
“That’s why Dojun is amazing.”
Men and women were talking to each other.
The topic of conversation was Min Do-jun.
‘What the heck, you guys. I told you to come here, but all you do is talk about that bastard Min Do-jun… … .’
As for Lim Hyeong-chan, who had an inferiority complex, even just the name Min Do-jun made him feel bad.
Lim Hyeong-chan, who was feeling annoyed for no reason, looked at the empty table and said.
“Guys, aren’t you going to order food?”
“Huh? Dojun hasn’t come yet.”
“You’re trying to order me around when Dojun isn’t here?”
At those words, Lim Hyeong-chan felt as if he had been hit with a hammer.
“… … What? Did you call Min Do-jun too?”
“Of course I called you. Why are we gathered here?”
“It would be a shame if Dojun were to leave.”
It was a shock to Lim Hyeong-chan, who didn’t know that Min Do-jun was coming.
‘You little punk Kim Sang-hyung! Then at least tell me you’re coming!’
If I had known Min Do-jun was coming, I wouldn’t have come out at all.
Lim Hyeong-chan glared at the mastermind, Kim Sang-hyung.
“What? Why?”
“Oh, no.”
Lim Hyeong-chan, who was cowering under the pressure, suppressed his anger inside.
‘Ah, I don’t want to see that bastard Min Do-jun. Should I just say something urgent came up and leave?’
The moment when you finally make a decision and get up.
“Huh? It’s Dojun!”
“Dojun, come here!”
Min Do-jun appeared.
“It’s been a while, everyone.”
Min Do-jun showed off his cool by meeting his friend.
He wore a nice suit and even had wax on his hair.
He wore a watch on his wrist that looked obviously expensive.
“Sang-hyung, Su-hwan, Tae-young, Min-ji, Su-jeong. Nice to meet you all. Oh, and Hyeong-chan too.”
“Huh? You remembered my name?”
“Wow, this is touching.”
It was our first reunion in almost 4 years since we last saw each other in the first year.
‘What? You remember my name too?’
While everyone was rejoicing, Im Soo-jung blushed.
‘You weren’t interested in me, were you?’
Unlike himself, who didn’t even know the face of the person in the same class as him, Min Do-jun looked straight at him and called his name.
‘You wouldn’t know unless you were interested… … .’
But it was only her delusion.
Min Do-jun just said that because he had the weakness detection trait.
“Nice to meet you all.”
Min Do-jun naturally sat next to Im Soo-jung.
‘omg.’
Maybe it was because he knew he was a hunter, but up close he looked manly and handsome.
My heart started pounding even though I was just sitting next to her.
“Is this the first time you’ve seen each other since freshman year? What do you all do for a living?”
Min Do-jun’s friends each answered his questions.
The content was about how difficult it is to make a living just by eating.
“Should we eat dinner first? I’ll buy it, so order as much as you want.”
“Wow, really?”
“Dojun is the best!”
Everyone ordered one dish each that they wanted to eat.
There were a lot of menus since there were 7 of us and we each ordered what we wanted to eat.
Because it is a fusion restaurant, the menu was varied.
Min Do-jun called the waiter and ordered food.
“… … Please give me the pepper rose pasta and the bracken fern carbonara tofu pizza. Four bottles of soju and beer… … .”
My classmates were surprised when I listed more than ten menu items without even looking at the menu.
“Dojun, did you memorize everything we talked about earlier?”
“huh.”
“Wow, awesome.”
“Come on, really.”
“It’s nothing.”
The women looked at Min Do-jun differently.
‘I thought hunters were just strong, but they’re smart too?’
After a while, when the alcohol came out first, everyone raised their glasses.
“I will follow you.”
“No, Dojun! I’ll do it. You just receive it.”
After filling the soju glasses, we toasted.
“For Dojun!”
I don’t know why Min Do-jun was included in the toast, but no one was dissatisfied.
Except for Lim Hyeong-chan.
‘Everyone is desperate to look good in front of Min Do-jun.’
His classmates’ intentions were plain to see in his eyes.
Because they were guys obsessed with money.
‘They’re vulgar, really.’
The friends chatted until the food arrived.
“Is Dojun the only one among your classmates who became a hunter?”
“I guess so? Dojun is probably the only one among the students.”
“Hyungchan, didn’t you say you wanted to become a hunter too?”
“Huh? Huh huh… … .”
“I remember. Didn’t you go around saying that you were going to be a hunter when you were a freshman?”
“Heh heh, it’s funny when I think about it now. It’s not like you can become a hunter by taking a test or anything.”
“He thought he was going to be a hunter and played around until his birthday.”
“Wow… … That time, Hyun-ta must have been no joke.”
The men giggled and shot at Lim Hyeong-chan.
He couldn’t refute what he had said, and he felt like hiding in a hole.
The women also tatted on what Lim Hyeong-chan had said.
“That’s right, Dojun. Just now, he said that being a hunter just requires luck. Is that true?”
“No. You need to have skills. You need to have the courage to face monsters.”
“right?”
“It was a good idea to ask Dojun.”
“What the current hunter says is more accurate.”
After a while, the food came out and we all started eating together.
The friendly atmosphere continued with toasts every now and then.
“Dojun, this is awesome. I took this picture. Did I take it well?”
Lim Soo-jung, who was acting cute with her tongue-tied voice, showed me her smartphone and clung to me tightly.
At that sight, Lim Hyeong-chan’s pupils shook as if an earthquake had occurred.
‘Hey, Min Do-jun, that bastard!’
Even though Min Do-jun remained silent, Lim Hyeong-chan blamed him.
‘Get off me now, you punk!’
Im Soo-jung started talking to Min Do-jun in an aegyo-like tone to become closer to him.
Min Do-jun also answered the annoying questions in a soft tone, as if he didn’t mind.
“He said that earlier, did he really earn 10 million won?”
“Ten million won?”
“Yeah. I heard that B-class hunters earn ten million won a day?”
Min Do-jun glanced at Lim Hyeong-chan and then snickered.
“What’s 10 million won? You should make close to 200 million won.”
“uh……?”
Im Soo-jung looked dumbfounded for a moment at the unimaginable amount of money.
The abacus rolled quickly in my head.
“Even if you sell just one Grade A magic stone, it’s worth 360 million won. But that’s only one every two days.”
“Then, the annual salary… … .”
“Over 60 billion.”
“Wow, really?”
Even while they were each talking to each other, the classmates all had surprised expressions on their faces as they listened to Min Do-jun’s story.
“Hey, Lim Hyeong-chan! You said you earned 10 million won?”
“How can you disguise 200 million won as 10 million won?”
“That kid spoke in a condescending tone on purpose.”
“Why do you have such a grudge against Dojun?”
“You must be jealous. You little punk.”
Lim Hyeong-chan’s face turned red and blue when he was openly attacked by his classmates.
Min Do-jun just chuckled at that sight.
“Okay, guys. You might not have noticed.”
“You work at the Hunter Management Center, and you don’t even know that?”
“You were so scary as if you knew everything, tsk tsk.”
“Stop it. It’s not nice to see your friend say this because he made a slip of the tongue once.”
Min Do-jun’s words made his friends change their stance immediately.
“I’m sorry, Dojun.”
“As expected, Dojun is very understanding and generous, right?”
When Min Do-jun said one word, his friends praised him ten times.
Actually, there was no friend who said sorry to Lim Hyeong-chan.
‘f*ck.’
Lim Hyeong-chan trembled with an expression like he had chewed shit.
When Min Do-jun defended himself, he felt even more miserable.
He glanced at Im Soo-jung.
Im Soo-jung was talking to Min Do-jun with a smile on her face.
The two of them had become close friends and there was constant laughter between them.
‘Even women are stolen… … .’
Lim Hyeong-chan thought that his wife had been stolen from him even though she was never his.
‘You’re so handsome, kid.’
Min Do-jun didn’t feel sorry for Lim Hyeong-chan at all, who was eating silently with a haggard face.
Because he was a guy who tried to scam people by eating his back.
“Should I get up after I finish eating?”
“Where should we go now? Should we go to karaoke?”
“Dojun, what would you like to be like?”
“I’m sorry, but I have something to do and I think I have to go now.”
His classmates were surprised by those words.
“What? Already?”
“I have to go for round 2!”
“I don’t have time. You guys drink more. Oh, right.”
Min Do-jun said while looking to the side.
“Sujeong, follow me.”
“Huh? Why me?”
Min Do-jun said with a sly smile.
“I have something to tell you.”
