Chapter 24

Chapter 24: Early Discharge (1)

Looking at Hwang Hana who had suddenly come to visit, Dohyun was perplexed but not greatly shaken. Thinking there might be some guidance matter to discuss, he nodded his head, and Hwang Hana immediately spoke.

“Excuse me.”

Saying that, Hwang Hana entered Dohyun’s dormitory.

Since the dormitory wasn’t too cramped and had a table and chairs suitable for sitting and talking, Dohyun went first and sat on a chair, and Hwang Hana sat facing him.

Then, seeing Hwang Hana whose atmosphere had changed somewhat, Dohyun looked at her strangely, and Hwang Hana, looking at such Dohyun, became somewhat softer from her previously authoritative attitude as an instructor.

Then.

“First, I’d like you to understand that what we’re discussing now is as hunters, not as instructor to trainee.”

“…?”

The sudden shift to formal speech from what had been an authoritative tone just moments before was unfamiliar, but Dohyun nodded his head in bewilderment. Hwang Hana carefully began to speak to such Dohyun.

“You might not know well since you’re a trainee who’s just started receiving education, but there are quite many factions within the Black Gate. There are powerful forces so strong that even the guilds of the United States, a superpower recognized worldwide, cannot compare.”

“Yes, I’ve heard.”

“So please, I hope you’ll join a powerful organization within the Black Gate rather than an Earthly Guild.”

“Pardon?”

Hwang Hana’s words that could seem somewhat out of the blue.

However, Hwang Hana calmly continued speaking.

“You might think you’ll suffer some losses immediately, but considering Dohyun-nim’s value, other organizations will definitely approach you. I recommend making your choice then. Until then, if you receive support from the Association, you won’t lack much compared to other guilds.”

“Hmm.”

Though he was flustered by her sudden visit, Dohyun slightly crossed his arms at Hwang Hana’s words and read the message that appeared in one corner of his vision.

Even Hwang Hana belonged to Taebaek, South Korea’s number one guild, so he had thought she came to scout him for Taebaek, but he heard an unexpected story.

Moreover, it was all true.

Though he wasn’t sure of her intentions, trusting the analysis’s words, he decided to listen more and asked.

“What’s your reason for telling me this?”

At Dohyun’s words, Hwang Hana chose her words for a moment before answering.

“Initially, I intended to scout you for Taebaek Guild even if it meant breaking rules as an instructor and receiving disciplinary action.”

Though it was the first time hearing this, Dohyun calmly nodded his head.

Even Dohyun thought the abilities he had shown were outstanding. He could have expected that much.

But the story that followed was something he hadn’t quite expected.

“However, I felt that Dohyun-nim’s vessel is too large for Taebaek to contain. Rather, I think if you joined Taebaek, you might not be able to fully spread your wings.”

Though it was a story of being viewed favorably, conversely speaking.

“That means the powerful factions of the Black Gate are much better than the guilds on Earth.”

“Yes. There are quite many from Earth who have entered forces of other dimensions, but no hunter has entered a powerful faction that could be said to rule the Black Gate. But I think Dohyun-nim could make it possible.”

Seeing Hwang Hana answer with such certainty, Dohyun knew everything was true and nodded saying he understood.

Hwang Hana’s sincerity reached him this much.

Her heart that truly wished for Dohyun to do well, and truly wanted South Korea to become more outstanding, was clearly conveyed.

“Thank you for the good advice.”

“I’m the one who should be grateful that you listened attentively.”

When Dohyun listened positively, Hwang Hana’s expression could finally relax somewhat.

And Hwang Hana returned to her original instructor atmosphere.

“Then now I’ll tell you the guidance matter as an instructor.”

Though it was fascinating how she changed like flipping a palm, perhaps because he had heard Hwang Hana’s sincerity? It didn’t sound as authoritative as before.

And the guidance matter that Hwang Hana continued with was also an unexpected story.

“Trainee Lee Dohyun and Trainee Ji Yuchan will proceed with early discharge from the Training Facility next Monday.”

“…Early discharge?”

So surprised was he that Dohyun stammered as he asked back, and Hwang Hana nodded her head.

Well, there wasn’t really anything left to learn except magic, so it didn’t matter. Of course, one of Hwang Hana’s skills, Shadow King’s Swiftness, remained, but unfortunately, even if he wanted to learn it, he lacked too many points.

Since Hwang Hana was too strong, he needed at least 2000AP to obtain Shadow King’s Swiftness, an A-rank skill, so he couldn’t possibly get it right now and planned to obtain it later when he had gathered points.

But if it was early discharge, wouldn’t there be no more opportunities to see her? Just when he was thinking that, a thought flashed through Dohyun’s mind.

‘Wait?’

If it was early discharge, he could quickly enter the Black Gate and rapidly supply points and AP by hunting different races and monsters, and if he didn’t exceed a month, couldn’t he come visit this Training Facility again and obtain Hwang Hana’s Shadow King’s Swiftness too?

When his thoughts reached that point, Dohyun couldn’t help but smile, thinking it was a perfect plan.

On the other hand, seeing that smile of Dohyun’s, Hwang Hana momentarily felt goosebumps rise on her body and swallowed her saliva.

She had just felt like prey standing before a predator, but without showing it, she looked at Dohyun and cleared her throat before speaking.

“Ahem, anyway, make sure to know about the early discharge. You’ll receive notification through the Hunter Association.”

“Yes. I understand.”

Only after Dohyun said that did Hwang Hana get up from her seat, and Dohyun saw her off, sending her outside.

And only after coming outside like that could Hwang Hana escape from Dohyun’s gaze that had been seeing through her, shaking her body and shaking off that eerie feeling.

As always, Dohyun’s gaze that saw through everything had somewhat uncomfortable aspects.

Though that would be Dohyun’s talent.

Anyway, thinking like that, Hwang Hana gave similar guidance to Jiyuchan as well before coming out of the building.

Now all that remained was going to report to the Hunter Association.

So Hwang Hana thought.

‘The Association will be turned upside down.’

Since it was only the second day and she hadn’t reported information about Dohyun and Jiyuchan yet, she chuckled thinking about the shock the Association would receive.

Who could have dared predict that such talents would emerge after herself and Hanalin.

With such idle thoughts, Hwang Hana headed to the Association.

* * *

Just as Hwang Hana had foreseen, a great commotion was stirring at the Korean Hunter Association headquarters located somewhere in Seoul.

The Association had been expecting that Jiyuchan’s scores might possibly break Hwang Hana’s record, but they couldn’t help but be turned upside down by Jiyuchan’s performance that far exceeded their expectations.

From physical abilities to techniques and skills, every single aspect showed numbers that wouldn’t fall short even when compared to Hunters currently active in F-rank zones, leaving the Association people with no choice but to be amazed. However, upon seeing Dohyun’s absurd numbers that made Jiyuchan look insignificant in comparison, they couldn’t even open their mouths.

The Association executives, who had been trembling in shock for quite some time, stood there dumbfounded, and the Association people had no choice but to question Hwang Hana, who had come to submit her report.

“…Is this real?”

“Chief Instructor Hwang Hana wouldn’t manipulate the numbers. If anything, she might reduce them when reporting, but she wouldn’t fabricate such ridiculous numbers and present them.”

“…A talent that combines Hunter Hwang Hana and Mage Hanalin.”

“No, even looking at each individual talent, his abilities far surpass theirs.”

“To think that Jiyuchan also exceeded Chief Instructor Hwang Hana, this is beyond imagination.”

“Huh. No wonder there was talk of early graduation.”

Everyone had no choice but to mutter such words.

The appearance of two such talents was quite an exceptional occurrence.

At Hwang Hana’s report, the Association executives had no choice but to nod their heads.

With this level of ability, talk of early graduation was inevitable. What would be the point of saying more here?

Since they couldn’t afford to let Hunters who could immediately become combat assets anywhere in the world rot away in the Training Facility, they spoke to Hwang Hana with almost unanimous agreement.

“Proceed with the early graduation.”

When the president of the Korean Hunter Association, speaking for all the executives, said this with eyes full of enthusiasm, Hwang Hana looked at the president and slightly bowed her head.

Then.

“And there’s something I’d like to discuss regarding that.”

At her words, the president, Han Muyeol, an A-rank Hunter who had reached one of the few A-rank zones in South Korea, looked at Hwang Hana as if telling her to speak.

Even without applying mana pressure, Hwang Hana felt the oppressive presence of Han Muyeol and spoke to him with some tension.

“Could you please keep the matter of early graduation and the story of their talents strictly confidential?”

At Hwang Hana’s words, Han Muyeol, though he had guessed as much, asked her back.

“The reason?”

Though it was just one word, the oppressive feeling and gaze that seemed to weigh down the entire room could have made anyone tremble. However, Hwang Hana composed her nerves and spoke confidently.

“It would be too regrettable to have these talents stolen by the hyena-like Earthly Guilds.”

At those words, Han Muyeol’s eyes lit up as he looked at Hwang Hana.

Hyena-like Earthly Guilds. Though it was an extreme expression, there probably wasn’t a more fitting description. The Earthly Guilds that operated like businesses for mutual profit and the organizations in the Black Gate differed from their very ideologies.

Han Muyeol looked at Hwang Hana and asked again.

“Oh? Do you think they possess talent worthy of entering one of the places called the Abyss?”

Talent worthy of belonging to one of the 10 powerful organizations existing in the Black Gate called the Abyss. Certainly, while Jiyuchan was questionable, looking at Dohyun alone, his numbers were more than sufficient for that.

But the world wasn’t that easy. To Han Muyeol’s question asked just in case, Hwang Hana answered confidently.

“Yes.”

A confident answer without even a hint of wavering.

Han Muyeol nodded, understanding.

“I’ll take measures.”

Since she knew well that when Han Muyeol, the Korean Hunter Association president and A-rank Hunter, said such things, they would definitely come to pass, Hwang Hana joyfully bowed her head in gratitude.

“Thank you.”

As Hwang Hana left the conference room expressing her sincere gratitude, the other Association executives and Han Muyeol smiled with amusement and muttered.

“Next week, was it?”

Early graduation.

Curious about what kind of people these two young men who had accomplished this unprecedented feat were, Han Muyeol asked his secretary.

“Clear my entire schedule for next week’s early graduation.”

“…Understood.”

Though there were many busy schedules, the secretary had no choice but to answer that way.

When Han Muyeol wanted to do something, no one could stop him. The moment early graduation was decided, he muttered with a wrinkled smile.

“Let’s see just how much of a monster they are.”
