Chapter 101
101: Dohyun’s Identity Revealed!? (2)
While spears could be brought to full power more readily than swords, they required considerably longer to master as a weapon.
Though thrusting alone seemed to offer accessibility in terms of lethality, from a martial perspective, the difficulty spiked dramatically compared to swordplay—requiring precise control of weight distribution, distance, and countless other nuances.
Dohyun was no exception.
Having learned spear technique while expending AP, I found myself inevitably captivated by the weapon’s subtle yet intricate allure.
Yet there were considerable advantages to compensate.
First, it was far more versatile than a sword.
By merely angling the spear blade slightly, I could execute unpredictable strikes, and relentless consecutive attacks were equally viable—which meant I could master it rapidly with genuine enthusiasm.
After that single night had passed, everyone could only shake their heads in astonishment.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
As Dohyun rotated the spear around his body, wielding it to defend and attack in all directions simultaneously, Jiyuchan was utterly dumbfounded.
Having declared a sparring match with Jiyuchan after mastering spear technique for barely half a day, the moment Dohyun pivoted the weapon around his center, his sword was blocked by the shaft—leaving Jiyuchan speechless.
“….”
Golden sword energy clashed against the grayish spear aura that flowed like starlight, tinged with cyan and yellow hues, forcing Jiyuchan to retreat considerably.
Yet the instant Jiyuchan pressed forward again, Dohyun’s starlit gray eyes flashed brilliantly as he advanced. Jiyuchan hastily attempted to block the incoming attack, but the spear tip was already streaking forward, scattering pale luminescence.
As the spear point shot toward his extended front leg, Jiyuchan was forced to retreat, causing his lower body to waver and his entire balance to momentarily collapse.
Seizing the opening, Dohyun’s pale spear tip—which had been targeting the ground where Jiyuchan’s front foot had been—undulated like a serpent, then surged toward the retreating Jiyuchan’s abdomen.
Clang——!!
The spear, wreathed in pale aura, was deflected by Jiyuchan’s golden blade, yet it was Jiyuchan whose balance shattered.
Though he barely maintained his equilibrium while retreating, he had surrendered a critical opening.
His balance fractured like a fissure, and his entire body began to collapse.
Meanwhile, Dohyun retrieved the rebounding spear, stepped forward, and rotated his entire body. Adding that rotational force, he swung the luminous pale spear shaft toward Jiyuchan, who found no means to defend—raising his hand to shield his head from the incoming left strike.
Boom——!!
Screech———!!!
A sound like something fracturing echoed as Jiyuchan’s body convulsed violently, driven backward.
Two long furrows carved themselves into the Dormitory Backyard as Jiyuchan’s expression twisted.
His entire left arm throbbed with sharp pain from the spear shaft’s strike, and his face displayed utter disbelief.
Though it hadn’t been a serious match, witnessing spear technique refined enough to exploit his weaknesses left him astounded.
That he’d mastered skill surpassing his own swordplay in merely half a day defied comprehension—yet he was grateful his opponent was Dohyun. Had it been anyone else, his spirit would have shattered alongside his body.
As Dohyun proudly demonstrated his spear mastery, Jiyuchan clicked his tongue and spoke.
“You’ve become a spear master.”
“Hmm, thanks. It’s certainly quite effective.”
Dohyun thought he could utilize the spear exceptionally well going forward. The moment he considered storing it via his bracelet, the spear vanished.
Witnessing this near-miraculous display, the other Hunters could only shake their heads in wonder.
“When exactly did Minwoo learn to handle a spear like that?”
“He could always do it, couldn’t he?”
“Swordplay, dagger techniques, and spear mastery? That’s remarkable.”
“Well, I’ve heard the name Dohyun frequently lately, but never seen him directly. I’d say Minwoo could beat that Dohyun fellow.”
“Of course.”
Unfortunately, they’re the same person.
Lamenting the truth he couldn’t bring himself to speak, Dohyun dispelled his spear and approached Jiyuchan.
Though it was a light sparring match, feedback was something he couldn’t skip.
As Dohyun approached, Jiyuchan swallowed hard as if expecting this, watching him draw near.
Then.
“Your lower body’s still unstable.”
“Ugh.”
Jiyuchan reacted with more pain than if he’d been struck by the spear, but Dohyun continued offering feedback regardless.
The decision to withdraw his legs for defense just now was certainly poor. More precisely, while the judgment itself was sound, Jiyuchan’s lower body and physique simply weren’t robust enough to remain stable during the immediate withdrawal. Had Jiyuchan recognized this, wrapping the spear with his blade would have been far superior to pulling his feet back.
Once Dohyun explained this far, Jiyuchan—initially pained by such pointed criticism—began listening earnestly, acknowledging the points and resolving to improve.
The fact that Dohyun could shake Jiyuchan despite having lower Strength stats was frankly nonsensical, so he offered analysis-based advice to reinforce technique rather than raw power, and Jiyuchan nodded gratefully.
“Thanks.”
“Don’t mention it.”
“Well then, I suppose it’s about time….”
Jiyuchan didn’t say more, but Dohyun nodded in agreement.
The time had come.
[Two or more of your stats have exceeded this Zone’s threshold.]
[You may advance to the next Zone.]
[Burden generation in 8:31:58]
Though eight hours remained, now was the perfect moment.
Considering South Korea’s time, it was precisely lunch hour—when no one would be occupying the designated seat—making this the ideal window to depart.
As Dohyun prepared for advancement and returned to his dormitory room, Hanalin seemed to sense the timing as well and asked him.
“We’re leaving soon, right?”
“Yeah, I need to pack.”
“I prepared everything in advance. We can leave immediately.”
“I packed mine last night too.”
Though drenched in sweat from sparring and training, neither Dohyun nor Jiyuchan showered since they’d be heading home anyway.
Once Dohyun stored all his luggage in his magic pouch, Hanalin and Jiyuchan rose as if ready.
They needed to reach the center of the Safe Zone to advance, but that posed no problem.
Using perception obstruction, transformation, and concealment simultaneously, all three quietly made their way to the Town Center, placed their hands on the stone tablet, and advanced.
They naturally exited the Black Gate and emerged at the designated seat where they’d first entered, then swiftly left without dispelling their perception obstruction, transformation, and concealment.
No one noticed, and since the CCTV was disabled at the designated seat through Han Muyeol’s consideration, no one detected their departure. Once the Dohyun Party completed point exchange through the stone tablet and exited the Association Building, Dohyun spoke to the two.
“Everyone worked hard.”
“Not at all. You suffered the most this time, so I’ll submit the report.”
“Dohyun did have it rough. Next time I’ll handle the report.”
At Hanalin’s words, Dohyun’s expression brightened, and Jiyuchan nodded as he spoke. With Jiyuchan volunteering to take the next turn, Dohyun’s smile grew even wider.
“Oh? That’s great.”
Grinning, Dohyun retrieved Hanalin and Jiyuchan’s travel bags from his magic pouch and took out his phone to hand to each of them, and it was then.
He tilted his head, puzzled by the unusually numerous notifications on his phone.
Why were there so many alerts?
I didn’t recall having anyone in particular to contact, but curious about the notification, I immediately opened the messaging app.
Seeing an unusual number of messages from my younger sibling Lee Dohee, I wondered if something was wrong at home and quickly opened them—and sure enough, there was definitely a problem.
[Dohee: oppa oppa oppa]
[Dohee: big trouble oppa you’re a hunter;;;]
[Dohee: oppa sorry but i told them please answer your phone]
[Dohee: oppa?? why aren’t you reading this???]
(continued below)
The messages were genuinely unsettling to read.
Dohyun checked another chat window just to be sure.
As expected.
[Mother: Dohyun, contact me.]
My pupils trembled violently at the sight of Mother’s message with my full name attached—there was no way to avoid feeling unsettled.
Seeing me suddenly engulfed in fear, Hanalin and Jiyuchan grew concerned and carefully asked.
“Oppa…? What’s wrong?”
“…Did something happen?”
At their words, I swallowed hard and let out a heavy sigh.
So that’s why my ears had been itching like crazy—this was it.
I spoke to them with a dazed expression.
“I think my family found out I’m a Hunter.”
“Al-already?”
“How!? Did it air on the news?”
At their dramatic reaction, I corrected them, looking between the two.
“No, my mother found out.”
“…?”
“…?”
They looked at me with expressions that seemed to ask “so what?” but I maintained a serious face.
My mother already worried excessively about me, and now that she’d found out so quickly that I was a Hunter, I knew there would be chaos.
Meanwhile, seeing their expressions of confusion, I asked them.
“What did your parents say about it?”
“Well, my father was worried at first, but once he heard I was a Mage, he felt a bit better. Since he knows I have talent, he worries less about it.”
“I was already athletic before, so my parents don’t think it’s that different.”
Both answered that way and tilted their heads at me with puzzled expressions.
Dohyun had always been quite talented, so even if they could worry, it seemed excessive—but then I heard something shocking.
“Sigh, I’ve always had a weak constitution, so they worry a lot. What can I do?”
“…Who has a weak constitution?”
“…You?”
Both of them looked at me in disbelief, and I scratched my head as I spoke to them.
“Anyway, I need to buy something. See you all later.”
As I said that and hurried off, Hanalin and Jiyuchan found the sight strange and watched me recede into the distance.
Then Hanalin and Jiyuchan looked at each other and murmured.
“A weak body?”
“That monster?”
Both of them dismissed the notion as absurd, chuckling softly before departing to their respective homes.
They figured Dohyun was simply being melodramatic.
