Chapter 105
As expected, there was a real uproar about the Pro Hunter exam.
In particular, this pro hunter test was released nationwide.
That\'s why the whole country could clearly see how crazy the difficulty was.
And even in the midst of such atrocious difficulty, Seo-jun still scored a perfect score.
『[I came to the Department of English without knowing English.]: Seo-Jun Kim
got a perfect score in all subjects on the 2nd day of the pro hunter test!』
.
.
└[guess Reggie]: The real Seojun Kim is different. Looking at the difficulty of this test, I thought that there would be no A-class hunters this year.
└[Lottery ratda aratta who will live in liquidation]: The key is which guild Kim Seo-joon enters.
└ [Junggu Gasiki DNA]: Would Seojun Kim join the guild because he was crazy? he will make it Rumor has it that Dream Academy is taking the same number of people?
└[A bird listens to daytime talk and don\'t use casual talk]: Crazy? Kim Seo-jun is also Kim Seo-jun, but aren\'t the Dream Academy students amazing? What kind of guild are you trying to create?
└ [Your sister-in-law is very excited]: It wasn\'t enough to break the 3 major academies when you were a student, so in Pro Hunter, you even destroyed the 5 major guilds in Korea? ?? My chest becomes magnificent...!
└ [Shit color power!]: To be honest, I did it for a long time. It\'s a dungeon bidding competition, but in fact, they monopolized everything. It is a time when change must take place.
└[The Man Who Scratched]: Can\'t you hear Ryu Jin-cheol riding on a poop rope?
.
.
Meanwhile.
Mooncheol Seo was moving briskly toward the Dream Academy.
Seo Mun-cheol is the elder of the Geomseong family and the most trusted right-hand man of the Geomseong.
There was no other reason for Seo Mun-cheol to go to Dream Academy.
‘He said he was at the lady\'s academy...\'
It was to meet none other than Seo-joon.
And the reason for wanting to meet Seo-joon was not elsewhere.
‘I didn\'t think the 5th guild would be aiming for something like that...\'
It was to give advice on the tricks the 5th guild is currently doing.
Of course, Seo Mun-cheol had first reported this to Geomseong before going to meet Seo-jun.
It seems that the 5 major guilds intervened in the Pro Hunter exam.
And the target is none other than Kim Seo-joon.
No matter how big the 5 guilds are, even if they are large guilds that have continued the cartel for decades.
With just one word from the swordsman, he had no choice but to stop his tricks.
Geomseong (劍星) is one of the five heroes representing Korea.
He was the owner of skills and power that the cartel of a large guild could not dare to reach.
I didn\'t even have to say a word.
If it was just hinted at that the Sword Master was ‘recognizing\' that fact, they would stop their tricks on their own.
however.
‘Leave it alone.\'
The swordsman didn\'t do that.
‘It was an issue that would come up someday. It\'s just that the timing was a little early.\'
I just left these words and didn\'t care more than that.
Of course, Seo Moon-cheol knew better than anyone else that Geomseong did not disapprove of Kim Seo-joon, contrary to popular perception.
So there was no reason for the swordsman to help Seo-jun.
And above all, the words of the swordsman were not wrong.
If he became a professional hunter, there would be a conflict with the cartel of the 5 guilds in some way.
There will be countless conflicts in the future, but the swordsman can\'t come forward and help every time.
So, if it was usual, Seo Mun-cheol would have just stepped back.
‘Lord Moon. This is not something to be handed over so easily.\'
However, this time, Seomun-cheol did not give up easily.
‘......Did you know you would say that?\'
And Geomseong also looked a little surprised at Seo Mun-cheol\'s appearance.
Seomuncheol slightly lowered his head and continued.
‘Kim Seo-joon will not be able to get an A-class hunter license.\'
‘Because the five major guilds are involved?\'
Seomuncheol nodded softly.
‘Even so, it\'s just a handful.\'
Geomseong didn’t take it seriously when he saw Seo Mun-cheol’s appearance.
And as Geomseong said, Kim Seo-joon was in a situation where he stood out and received a perfect score despite the manipulation of a large guild.
However, what was required to acquire an A-class hunter was a perfect score in all subjects.
There are 2 subjects left.
And if the information Seo Mun-cheol found out now is true.
Kim Seo-joon never did in this Pro Hunter test.
I was never able to obtain a Class A Hunter license.
‘In the first place, this professional hunter test was structured so that Kim Seo-joon could not receive an A-class hunter.\'
‘If it\'s because the 5th guild leader is directly involved, don\'t worry about it.\'
At the words of Geomseong, Seo Mun-cheol looked slightly surprised.
From the moment the five major guilds intervened, it seemed that the swordsman had already thought of that case.
However, it seemed that he did not know the details of the situation.
‘It\'s not because of that.\'
‘What... what do you mean?\'
Then, this time, the Sword Master looked slightly surprised.
Seomuncheol told the swordsman the hidden facts in detail.
‘......\'
Geomsung\'s expression began to distort slightly at Seo Mun-cheol\'s explanation.
but.
‘Leave it alone.\'
‘Lord Moon!\'
Even so, the meaning of the swordsman did not change.
‘If it collapses at that level, it must be that far. Above all, if it had collapsed like that, he wouldn\'t have come this far in the first place.\'
‘But Lord Moon!\'
‘Above all, it\'s not like only the five major guilds are involved. There\'s no way they\'d have the guts to do that.\'
The Sword Master just turned around and left, leaving a meaningful message behind.
Seomuncheol continued to persuade the swordsman, but the swordsman was unmoved.
In the end, Seo Mun-cheol had no choice but to give up on persuading the Sword Master.
However, Seo Mun-cheol could not stand still.
‘My lady...\'
It was none other than Seoyoon.
In fact, like Seomuncheol and Swordsman, it didn\'t matter much what happened to Kim Seojun.
However, it was not Seoyoon.
Seoyoon grabbed the sword she hated so much to be with Kim Seojun.
Even now, in order to keep that will, he was striving for training day and night.
The deadline suggested by the swordsman is until the Pro Hunter exam is over.
And the deadline for the future pro hunter exam is only one day.
Although it was Seoyoon who had not yet completed the ordeal given by the Sword Master, Seoyoon was working more desperately than ever.
But what if Kim Seo-joon doesn\'t get an A-class hunter license?
Seoyoon\'s efforts turned into nothing.
Those eyes Seoyoon saw at that time.
The will that Seoyoon showed at that time.
Seomuncheol was taking this step now for Seoyoon, not Kim Seojun.
Dream Academy arrived like that.
Koo Goo Goo Goo...!!
But for some reason, a tremendous energy was bursting out around Dream Academy.
“...?”
Mooncheol Seo carefully opened the door to Dream Academy.
With the sound of a click, the figure of Seo-joon sitting in a corner came into Seo Mun-cheol\'s field of view.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!
And the tremendous energy that bursts out around Seo-jun.
The terrible energy felt outside of Dream Academy was none other than the energy bursting from Seo-jun\'s whole body.
“What is this…?”
Seo Mun-cheol opened his eyes and looked at the scene.
It was because he couldn\'t have imagined that he was a student.
No, I didn\'t mean to push the student level.
I know it\'s a really, really crazy idea, but it\'s almost...
“Huh?”
At that moment, Seo-joon stood up, perhaps recognizing the existence of Seo Mun-cheol.
Then he slowly approached Seomuncheol.
“That...that...”
I couldn\'t get the words out and only scratched the back of my head.
He stood there as if he knew his face but didn\'t know what to call him.
Seo Mun-cheol said to Seo-joon.
“Call me the chief.”
“Ah yes. Chief Chief.”
Unsurprisingly, at Seo Mun-cheol’s words, Seo-jun smiled and continued.
“Elder Chief, what are you doing here... Ah! Isn\'t Seoyoon all right?”
Then, with an expression that reminded me of it, I shouted at Seo Mun-cheol.
“No way! What happened to Seoyoon?”
“It’s not like that, so don’t overlook it.”
It was only then that Seojun let out a big sigh of relief.
Seo Mun-cheol looked at Seo-joon blankly.
Seo-joon is making the entire Korean society lively.
However, the face he faced was nothing more than a stupid guy who seemed to have a screw missing somewhere.
‘But what about that energy...\'
But the energy that Seo-joon just exuded.
‘Did Lord Moon know from the beginning...\'
Seo Mun-cheol could understand at a glance why Geomseong reacted that way.
Mooncheol Seo was lost in thought for a moment.
“Uh… Why is that?”
As Seo Moon-chul looked at him without saying a word, Seo-joon showed a slightly flustered expression.
Seo Mun-cheol said to Seo-joon.
“I have something to tell you.”
#
The third day of the pro hunter test and the long-awaited last day.
Everyone\'s interest was, of course, toward the Pro Hunter exam.
“Today is the last day of the Pro Hunter exam.”
“Can Seojun Kim really get a perfect score this time?”
Among them, interest in Seo-joon was overwhelming.
That would also be the case because after this test, Seojun\'s Hunter rank was determined.
And depending on what grade Seo-joon received, his future moves changed dramatically.
Therefore, people\'s interest was bound to be further amplified.
“Do you think it\'s possible with the current momentum?”
“That\'s true, but...”
The test subjects on the last day are ‘Combat Power (Monster)\' and ‘Combat Power (Person)\'.
In the midst of everyone\'s expectations, the long-awaited final subject of the pro hunter exam began.
Of the two subjects, the first subject was none other than ‘Combat Power (Monster)\'.
If the previous dungeon raid was to deal with the monsters in the dungeon.
This ‘combat power (monster)\' was simply to deal with the implemented monster.
To put it simply, it was a way to deal with one boss monster.
and.
“How... Sounds a bit easy, doesn\'t it?”
“I know...?”
Of course, the difficulty itself was not low.
In the first place, the materialized monster was a 9-star Revenant, so the difficulty couldn\'t be low.
However, it didn\'t feel difficult that I only had to deal with one monster when it came to the monsters that were realized through sorcery.
In addition, since the score is measured without necessarily processing, it was not difficult to obtain a high score.
Of course, I had to deal with that monster to get a perfect score.
In any case, the difficulty level was high, but the type itself was not difficult.
Compared to the last exam, which was difficult and the type was damn right, it felt like it was easy.
Is that why?
< 5 subjects - Combat Power (Monster) >
[1st place] - Seojun Kim (100 points)
[1st place] - Lee Ha-yoon (100 points)
[1st place] - Lee Min-yul (100 points)
[2nd place] - Seok Su-yeon (92 points) )
[3rd place] - Jeong Si-woo (91 points)
.
.
.
In the 5th subject, combat ability (monster), there was a perfect score other than Seojun.
“Still, the difficulty level is adjusted because it is the last day.”
“The pass cutoff score was too low.”
In addition, the average score of test takers could also go up.
“If that’s the case, it wouldn’t be a problem for Seojun Kim to get a perfect score?”
“Wow... is it the first ever A-class hunter to be born?”
Now, there is only one test left: combat power (person-to-person).
And if it was the same type as just now, Seo-joon\'s perfect score was no different.
“I thought there would be no problem with Seo-joon oppa.”
“As expected, Captain. I knew you could do it!”
That\'s why Soo-yeon and Min-yul almost confirmed Seo-joon\'s perfect score.
“Well… it was meant to be.”
Even Lee Ha-yoon nodded as if Seo-jun\'s perfect score was natural.
however.
“......”
Seo-joon, the person in question, did not show any signs.
Rather, he was just sitting in the waiting room with a stiff expression on his face.
“Leader. what\'s the matter?”
“brother...? What\'s wrong?”
Right then.
“Breaking news! I heard that the last 4 major guild leaders are going to be judges?”
The door to the waiting room was thrown open, and the sound of a test taker shouting echoed.
“What what?! Are the four major guild leaders directly evaluating them?”
“Aren’t you crazy…?”
“I hope so. Didn\'t I hear that wrong?”
Then the entire waiting room started to stir.
That would be true, too, because the leaders of the 4 guilds were those who were at the forefront among active S-class hunters.
The ranks of pro hunters start at E rank.
And it was C-class that I heard that I had some skills.
It also depends on your experience, but on average somewhere ‘you have some skills.\' It is from C level that you hear the sound.
Class B was about the level of an executive in a small or medium guild.
The guilds each put forward unconventional conditions and try to recruit them somehow.
The dragon\'s tail and the snake\'s head.
The person located there is a B-class Hunter.
and A grade.
From A grade, the story is different.
Starting with A-rank hunters, you will receive special treatment even if you go to a guild within the top 20 called a large guild, not a small or medium guild.
Elite raid teams are natural, and the income and rewards of advanced dungeons are enormous.
In addition, if there is no guild you really like, there is a way to become a master yourself.
The small and medium guilds currently located in Korea were guilds created by these A-rank hunters.
Class A was just such a level.
Last S class.
From here on out, it was out of the question.
It was safe to say that the words were S-class and S-class, and it was virtually impossible.
In other words, it was the top level hunter that a professional hunter could reach.
Even in large guilds, he is in an executive-level position.
Even if they made a guild, they were skilled enough to rise to a guild of at least a middle or upper level.
The guild master is an S-class hunter.
There are pro hunters who flock to this title alone.
And the 4 major guild leaders in Korea.
Among those S-class hunters, they were the ones who took the top spot again.
Excluding the heroes of cataclysm, if you list the pro hunter rankings, you must be in the top 10.
“Somehow, the preceding test was said to be easy.”
“No matter how it is, this is…”
So, the confusion of the test takers could not help but increase.
“But it won’t be of any use to the captain?”
“that\'s right. If you are Seo-jun oppa, even if you are the 4th guild leader, a perfect score is enough.”
Suyeon High School Min-yul and Lee Ha-yoon looked at Seo-joon with hope.
“......”
However, Seo-jun silently waited for the final professional hunter test.
The pro hunter test was so shocking and confusing.
The last subject has begun.
And the one who was appointed to Seo-jun\'s test site was none other than Han Man-cheol, the father of the fight.
Han Man-cheol, the leader of the Fight Against Guild.
Called a swordsman of honor, he was known as a master of the extreme sword.
The Geukjin Sword, which uses a sword that is thoroughly combat-oriented, eliminates all techniques and tricks and only aims at killing.
It looked very simple from the outside, but its power was such that even the sword star acknowledged it.
Is that why?
[Lee Ha-yoon] - 64 points.
[Immigration rate] - 59 points.
[Suk Soo-yeon] - 43 points.
.
.
No one got a perfect score, and the score was disastrous.
Even Lee Ha-yoon, the greatest talent in the history of pro hunters, has not yet been able to compete with Han Man-cheol.
In the midst of being broken by Han Man-cheol one after another.
Seojun\'s turn finally came.
Seo-joon slowly climbed to the podium of the test.
And this scene is being broadcast live nationwide.
It was safe to say that virtually everyone\'s attention was now focused on Seo-joon and Han Man-cheol.
Seo-joon faced Han Man-cheol, who was looking at him in the midst of that interest.
The eyes of two people meeting each other.
“I\'m sorry...”
Han Man-cheol suddenly opened his mouth to Seo-joon.
It was a voice so small that only Seo-joon could hear it.
“You will never get a perfect score in this subject.”
Seojun neither nodded nor shook his head.
And what Han Man-cheol said was not because he was belittling Seo-jun\'s skills.
Rather, it was something he could say because he was well aware of Seo-jun\'s skills.
“Because I\'m not going to give you full marks.”
This was because the combat power (interpersonal) subject score was none other than the score given by the examiner.
Of course, there was a manual to measure the score because subjective elements had to be included.
However, the discretionary element of the examiner could not be completely excluded.
No matter how excellent Seo-joon shows against Han Man-cheol.
It was enough for Han Man-cheol to give Seo-jun a score of 99.
And it was great, but something was disappointing to give it a perfect score.
It was enough to say that.
In a situation where even Lee Ha-yoon received 64 points, 99 points is an amazing record.
Of course, it was clear that there would be a backlash.
Since the test was open to the public nationwide, there would have been fierce criticism from public opinion.
However, giving Seo-jun 99 points even after taking such damage was worth it.
In addition, they are guild leaders ranked in the top 5 in Korea and a huge cartel that moves the professional hunter world.
He had enough strength to suppress that level of backlash.
“Sorry, but you end here.”
In other words, Seo-jun could not get a perfect score in the pro hunter exam.
and.
“I know.”
Seo-joon already knew those facts.
“Huh... You already knew?”
Looking at Han Man-cheol, who opened his eyes in surprise, Seo-joon recalled the memories of yesterday.
.
.
That was when none other than Muncheol Seo came to Dream Academy.
Seo Mun-cheol told Seo-joon exactly what Han Man-cheol said.
And as if giving advice, he spoke to Seo-joon.
‘The only way to break through is for you to go to the Sword Saint and ask for a favor. If I set the conditions like last time, even the Sword Saint-nim will listen as if I can\'t win.\'
Certainly, with the help of the Sword Master, the work could have been handled easily.
However, Seo-jun could not easily answer.
Words help, but in the end Seo-joon also got a perfect score because of someone\'s intervention.
‘Don\'t you get a perfect score?\'
‘Yes, but...\'
Seo Mun-cheol urged Seo-jun, but Seo-jun did not answer.
And if Seo-jun didn\'t go to the swordsman and ask for it, Seo-jun couldn\'t get a perfect score.
That\'s why Seo Mun-cheol could only think of it with the attitude that it didn\'t matter if Seo-jun\'s appearance didn\'t get a perfect score.
So Muncheol Seo had no choice but to bring up the story of Seoyoon.
About why Seoyoon didn\'t come to the academy.
‘That kind of thing...\'
Hearing Mooncheol\'s story, Seojun put on a dazed expression.
Seomuncheol opened his mouth again.
‘If you don\'t get a perfect score, that girl\'s will will be in vain.\'
‘Seoyun-san... are you doing well? No, can it be completed within the deadline?\'
Seo Mun-chul shook his head resolutely.
‘To be honest, it is realistic to see it as impossible.\'
‘......\'
Seojun just stared blankly at Seomuncheol.
‘But don\'t even think about going out. it\'s a girl\'s fight And even if she can\'t be with you, she\'ll want you to get a perfect score.\'
This was the ultimate reason for Seo Mun-cheol to come and help Seo-joon.
‘......\'
And Seojun had nothing to say.
Because Seojun knew better than anyone else what Seomuncheol meant.
In addition, there was a certain conviction in Seo Mun-cheol\'s words.
And if Seo Mun-cheol would say that.
Perhaps Seoyoon couldn\'t complete the ordeal within the deadline.
If that happens...
Seo-joon is deep in thought.
‘So think carefully before making a decision.\'
Seo Mun-cheol turned around and moved on.
But just then
‘The chief.\'
Suddenly, Seo Jun grabbed Seo Moon-cheol and stood him up.
When Seo Moon-cheol turned his head, Seo-jun said.
‘Can I ask you one favor...?\'
Seo Mun-chul nodded as if to say something, and Seo-jun immediately continued.
‘Can I tell Seoyoon about my current situation?\'
‘...Why?\'
Seo Mun-cheol was a little embarrassed.
It was because he thought that Seojun would go to Geomseong.
‘Are you going to ease the guilt of the young lady by telling me about your impossible situation? After all, you can\'t get a perfect score either?\'
‘no.\'
Seojun firmly shook his head.
‘I want to show that impossible is nothing.\'
‘That... what do you mean?\'
To Seo Moon-cheol\'s question, Seo-joon answered without hesitation.
‘If only I could do it in the same impossible situation. You\'d think Seoyoon-ssi could do it too.\'
‘......\'
Looking at Seo-joon, the momentum itself was different.
The stupid guy who seemed to have lost a screw just now had disappeared.
‘I will not go to the Sword Saint.\'
Seo Mun-cheol blankly stared at Seo-joon.
maybe that\'s why
‘......I get it.\'
From Seo Jun\'s appearance, Seo Moon-cheol could vaguely feel why Seo-yoon wanted to hold the sword again.
.
.
.
“Sorry, but I have to get a perfect score.”
Seo-joon continued talking to Han Man-cheol as if nothing was wrong.
“There is someone waiting for me.”
“I don’t know what’s going on, but… the world of professional hunters is cruel. Under no circumstances will you ever get a perfect score.”
As Han Man-cheol said, there was no way for Seo-joon to get a perfect score.
No matter how much Seo-jun showed excellent skills, Han Man-cheol gave him 99 points and said he didn\'t know me.
In a word, it was impossible.
However, the transcendental person that Seojun wants to walk and become.
They are beyond even that impossible.
If there is no way, they are the ones who create the way.
Seo-jun said to Han Man-cheol.
“If an examiner who can evaluate is unable to evaluate, then who evaluates the score?”
Hanmancheol who hesitates.
Seo-joon continued to speak.
“At the same time, if anyone can see it, I have no choice but to get a perfect score. What will happen to my score then?”
“......”
After Seo-joon’s words finished, Han Man-cheol’s expression hardened.
It was none other than the judge, Han Man-cheol, who evaluated the score.
And when Han Man-cheol was unable to evaluate the score, no one knew who would evaluate the score.
Because that case wasn\'t assumed in the first place.
It was a situation that couldn\'t happen.
The only state in which the examiner could not evaluate the score was a state of unconsciousness.
And the number of cases where the examiner loses consciousness is only one.
This was the case when the judges were defeated by the test takers.
In the history of professional hunters, such a thing has never happened.
couldn\'t get up
A confrontation between test takers and pro hunters.
The difference in level was stark.
Of course, there could be cases where the test takers won.
I haven\'t had a single case like that yet... but anyway.
How could he have made a home at home to that extent?
But widening the gap so much that the examiner loses consciousness?
It literally shouldn\'t even have been an opponent.
In addition, Ryu Jin-cheol directly put forward the 4 major guild leaders to eliminate even the slightest possibility.
I don\'t know if it\'s an ordinary A-class hunter.
Even Kim Seo-joon would not be able to create an overwhelming gap against the 4 major guild leaders.
But now, the words that Seo-joon uttered...
“I believe you will not die. You\'ve been lying down for about a month.”
Only a test taker would dare to go to an S-class Hunter.
And that\'s also for the top-tier Hunter, who is at the forefront among S-rank Hunters.
“Heh heh...”
Han Man-cheol could only laugh at that arrogant yet sky-high arrogance.
Han Man-cheol was not an ordinary hunter.
He is the head of one of the five largest guilds, the Brawl Abi Guild.
Among active S-class hunters, the highest rank hunter.
No one could ever dare to say something like that in front of him.
Han Man-cheol hinted.
“I think you are going too far. Even though you surpass the students...”
“The score I have to get is perfect. So...”
Seo-jun cut off Han Man-cheol.
Han Man-cheol\'s distorted expression.
Seojun stretched Longinus\'s spear.
And then.
“I will give you the player.”
He flicked his fingers toward Han Man-cheol.
