Chapter 308
“Ryu Jun-Yeol. Stop playing that weird game and go over to the Academy already.” That was the first thing Kang-Hyun said as he stepped into the office, holding an official document sent by the Academy.
Jun-Yeol, who had been engrossed in a dating sim on his smartphone, glanced at the document placed before him. The request was simple: the academy wanted him to give a lecture to second-year students.
***
S-rank Hunters were occasionally invited to the Academy to give lectures to the students. While stories of real-world Hunting experience were important, these lectures also offered students valuable industry insights from active Hunters on the front lines.
By the time students reached their second year, they usually had a decent understanding of how the Hunter industry operated. As a result, the lecture content tended to be somewhat routine: gathering intel before entering a Fissure, formulating a plan, handling emergencies, dividing profits from monster by-products, current market trends, and so on.
“That concludes today’s lecture. I’ll be in the counseling room this afternoon. If you have any questions, feel free to stop by. Enjoy your lunch,” Jun-Yeol said.
Murmurs filled the air as students filtered out of the auditorium, but a few students lingered, clearly waiting to speak with Jun-Yeol.
Suppressing a sigh, he assumed they were hoping to curry favor with an S-rank Hunter.
“Counseling starts at 2 PM, so come by later. I need to eat, too, you know,” he told them.

The meals provided by the Academy were quite good, which made sense given their high tuition fees.
Jun-Yeol finished two bowls of stone pot fish roe rice and made his way to the counseling room, tucked away in the corner of the Academy’s main building. The space, resembling a large cafeteria, was easily over 150 square meters.
