Chapter 184
Trying to become a Hunter worthy of the S-rank title was like reaching for the stars.
Among countless Awakened individuals lauded as prodigies, only those sharp enough to stand out from the crowd could become S-rankers in South Korea. These Hunters would then rise above everyone else, recognized as those who possessed the trifecta of talent, luck, and relentless effort.
When such cream-of-the-crop S-rank Hunters gathered, one topic would occasionally come up.
“If you need talent, hard work, and exceptional luck to become an S-rank Hunter....” The S-rank Hunter trailed off.
There was one man who ruled above all the S-rank Hunters in South Korea, an irregularity beyond common sense.
“Where do we even start with him? Like, what is he supposed to be categorized as?” said another S-rank Hunter.
A man named Lee Do-Jun, a low-level civil servant working in the Fissure Management Division at Seoul City Hall. If he were to become a Hunter, could he even be confined within the boundaries of the S-rank, who were already considered the stars of the Hunter world? Only the top 0.1% of all Hunters knew the truth about Do-Jun.
“There’s one thing we know for sure, and that’s the fact that we’re insanely blessed that he’s on our side.”
Ten years ago, the Encroachment started, and people worldwide gained Status Windows. Some Awakened, acquired skills, and became Hunters. Since then, Hunters had been waging a war against the monsters threatening humanity.
But what if Do-Jun had been an enemy lurking deep within the Core beyond Earth?
“That would’ve been absolutely terrifying,” said one of the Rankers with a shudder.
From the enemies’ perspective, nothing was more terrifying than facing Do-Jun.
