After finishing the conversation with Moon, Seonghyeon decided to take some time off.
Seonghyun’s achievements so far.
It started with the first year participating in the national competition as a representative of the academy.
This alone was a great achievement that already left his name, but Seonghyeon was not satisfied with it.
In fact, he hadn’t even made such a grand and altruistic plan to make a name for himself or to help many people.
It wasn’t that he acted like that.
He just moved while looking at the single goal of extinction of the beast, and the process and the results all came together and returned to Seonghyeon.
At least, from Park Han-wook, who first became the subject of Seong-hyeon’s devotees, to now 130,000 people in the United States.
In the meantime, from being named as the top hunter to taking over the American Association.
If I were to list them one by one, even talking all night was not enough.
The most important thing is that all of this was accomplished in just one year.
“Is the time slow? Am I fast?”
Looking back on the achievements achieved, it was an achievement that could not be achieved even if someone dedicated their entire life to it.
Up until now, Seong-hyun thought this was the right thing to do.
Until you talk to the window.
“Because it’s not good because it’s fast.”
As Seong-hyun achieved such an achievement that was difficult to bear, of course, there was also a reaction against it.
The 5th grade door disappeared.
An increase in the mutation frequency of Level 3 doors.
The 3rd and 4th grade doors are reinforced.
In addition to this, numerous reactions followed, such as the fact that the organization’s activities were moved much earlier.
“okay. Let’s take it easy.”
When the extinction of the beast is accomplished, if no one is left around, can you really think that your wish has come true?
He didn’t sacrifice cattle for the sake of the generations, he just became a dictator who sacrificed the generations for the generations.
“Then what should I do? What else can I do?”
Now, Seonghyeon has reached a level where whatever she does is not a sacrifice.
Even healing others was a good thing for each other because it was an opportunity to gain people of faith, and even with financial support, Seong-hyeon is now on the verge of losing money, so it was a good deed, not a sacrifice.
“Shall we build a treatment center? Or are you applying for another guild’s subjugation schedule?”
After thinking about it for a while, Sunghyun realized that something was wrong.
“Do I have to…do I have to do something?”
A thought that suddenly occurred to me.
Every time we take one step forward for the extinction of the beast, the place we have passed is collapsing.
Naturally, those on the road will sink.
Only if the bridge is made strong enough that even if it collapses, there will be little damage or it will not collapse at all.
However, Seong-hyeon could not go all out in this process.
From the moment you heal someone, those who have lowered the standard of religiosity will be added.
“What else do I have other than healing?”
When I thought about it, I had a lot more than I thought.
There was also rotting money, and although it was not wide, there was also a network of people who each had quite a lot of power.
“Therapy? subjugation support? This was not the time to do this.”
There was one very inefficient thing that cost a lot of money.
“Does that mean I have to go to the academy first?”
At the same time, there was a suitable person at Hana Academy.
A person who even tried to do it himself.
——————————————–
Before the Academy’s summer vacation begins.
Seonghyeon appeared directly at the academy after a very long time.
“Ki, this is Kim Seong-hyun.”
“What’s going on at the academy?”
“…I think you are all mistaken. Kim Seong-hyun is still a student…”
“Ah, that’s right.”
Now, the gaze on Seong-hyeon has changed to such an extent that it is indescribably different from before.
The best hunter representing Korea.
His performance in the United States is an achievement that will go down in history.
Nevertheless, he was already entrenched in the perception of everyone as a person with no greed who did not make great demands on the United States.
“Seonghyun-ah!”
“It’s been a while since I’ve seen you here.”
In-hwan and Sang-yeon, who were waiting for Seong-hyeon, were also feeling the changed gaze of other students.
“Hey, it feels like we’ve become top-level hunters too, don’t we?”
“Don’t be arrogant. You can’t even reach those claws.”
“It’s a start again. So, if you don’t light the mood candle, where will it hurt?”
“It would be better than having a headache like you.”
“this…”
Now, Sang-yeon accepted In-hwan’s words without even a blink of an eye.
“Ttt, why did you say you were coming to the academy?”
“You don’t need a class…”
“What… a scout?”
“scout…?”
It was an expression of wanting to know, but the two did not ask Sunghyun.
things you’ll find out anyway.
“let’s go.”
“Are you going to class?”
“Didn’t you say you were scouting?”
“I know when I go.”
Sunghyun took the lead in the classroom first.
“We’re upstairs, kid.”
“How long has it been since you came to the academy, do you even forget the classroom?”
“…”
Seonghyeon, who took the lead, stopped on the way and turned around again.
“let’s go.”
“Hey, that’s shameful.”
“It has evolved.”
When we arrived at the classroom, the noisy atmosphere disappeared in an instant.
“Seo, Seonghyun?”
“Why are you here…”
“You’re a student, but why are you here?”
Unable to speak directly, they began to gossip among themselves.
“So who are you scouting?”
Inhwan asked Sunghyun as if to listen.
Then the gossiping voices began to look at Seonghyeon with expressions full of anticipation.
“Because you can see it.”
“Come on, let’s start class…”
As always, Professor Sung was about to start the class.
Until I check Seonghyun’s appearance.
“Ki, Hunter Kim Seong-hyun?”
“Today I am a student.”
“Ahh. Yes. Okay. Well, then, let’s start class.”
Professor Sung’s class was slightly different from the classes of other professors.
Perhaps because he had experience in educating hunters the other day, the content was a little more related to actual combat.
“Continuing from last time, the operation sequence of magical power is condensed from the outside rather than inside the body…”
It was basically a description of the required magic power.
As a professor at the Academy, he also published his own theory.
“…This way, you can unleash a more powerful ability even if you consume the same magical power. Of course, it is not without its drawbacks.”
Seonghyeon looked at this class with great interest.
Although the content was not very helpful for Seong-hyeon, who had an infinite amount of magical power, it was very impressive to see Professor Seong looking for a more advanced theory rather than explaining the existing theories in detail.
“Basically, we are used to using magic in our body first, so this method has the disadvantage that it takes a little longer than the conventional method. But once you get used to it, it will be a different story.”
Professor Sung continued explaining something with trembling hands.
“professor. Aren’t you so excited today?”
“Is that so? haha. I must have been a little nervous.”
Perhaps the cause of the tension is you.
Seonghyeon kept silence throughout the class rather than going out in person.
“…so, today’s theory class will end here.”
“thank you for your effort.”
“thank you.”
After the theory class was over, the students started leaving the classroom for the practical class.
Professor Sung had time to look back and rearrange the students’ questions from this class.
“professor.”
“Any question… Ah, Hunter Kim Seong-hyun. What’s going on?”
“Can we talk for a moment?”
“sure. If you are Hunter Kim Seong-hyun, you can use my vacation today.”
“Haha, you should use that precious vacation for your daughter.”
Professor Sung’s eyes looking at Seonghyeon were full of trust.
As a standard for how people treat people, regardless of whether they are subject to religious beliefs.
“Conversation may take a while, so I think we should ask the principal for forgiveness for the next theory class.”
“yes. I will wait…”
Then, Professor Sung’s phone started ringing.
“Well? The principal…”
“Come on and take it.”
“Yes, headmaster. Yes. Yes, that’s right. Yes? No, how did you know… First of all, thank you. Yes. All right.”
After hanging up on the phone, Professor Sung’s expression looked quite complicated.
“What are you saying?”
“I’m going to the next theory class myself, so let’s talk comfortably…”
“You are a fun person too. Shall we go then?”
While moving along Seonghyeon, Professor Sung could not erase his puzzled expression.
The next class was scheduled, so we couldn’t go far, and Seong-hyeon and Seong took their seats in the professor’s lounge.
“I have been watching very well in the United States. 130,000 people…”
“no. Isn’t it something only me can do? Is Jihyun getting along better than that?”
Perhaps surprised that he remembered his daughter’s name, Professor Sung opened his eyes wide for a moment and then answered with a look on the face of a person thinking of something precious.
“of course. I love seeing Hunter Kim appear on TV so much that even though it’s usually time to watch cartoons, I only watch it. Thanks to you, how hard I am… haha.”
“I’m glad you seem to be doing well.”
Professor Sung already looked like a happy person.
And he looked at Seonghyeon with straight eyes and said, as if he had never forgotten who brought that happiness back.
“So why did you come to the academy today? If you had called me, I would have gone.”
“no. I want to scout, but I have to come in person.”
Professor Sung’s eyes flickered at the word scout.
If it was a hunter like Seong-hyeon, there would be talented people all over the place.
“Hey, is there anything I can do?”
“There are things only Professor Sung can do well.”
“I don’t know what I can do, but if you tell me to do anything, I will give my life.”
Thanks to his faith, Professor Sung swore allegiance to Seong-hyeon.
“Is that so? Jihyun must be sad.”
“Even Jihyun… would understand if I gave my life for Hunter-sama.”
“Don’t say that, even if it’s a joke.”
Professor Sung’s expression seemed to be real, so Seonghyeon deliberately smiled and changed the topic to dismiss it as a joke.
“Didn’t Professor Sung educate hunters before?”
“Yes, that’s right. Although it wasn’t that big, I worked hard on my own.”
“We need a professor at that time.”
“Are you saying that… you want education?”
“yes. you’re right.”
Professor Sung didn’t seem to fully understand Seong-hyeon’s meaning yet.
“Could you please explain in detail?”
“of course.”
Where should I start explaining?
Seonghyeon explained from the disappearance of the 5th grade door to the strengthening of the 3rd and 4th grade doors.
Except, of course, that the cause is Sung-hyun.
“Then it’s pretty obvious what’s going to happen next.”
“Whether the lower-class doors disappear, or they become more powerful…”
“you’re right. And what will happen if that happens?”
“Existing hunters will do a lot of damage. Naturally, the number of hunters who will subdue the gates will decrease, and the number of gates that are left unattended will increase and the number of gates overflowing… Huh, this is a vicious cycle.”
“If the top hunter comes forward, we can somehow stop it, but if that doesn’t happen, the damage will be huge.”
“So how can all hunters become stronger…”
“That’s right. But the first person that comes to mind is the professor.”
Seonghyeon reached out to Professor Sung.
All he had in his hand was his body temperature.
“Would you like to join us?”
Professor Sung responded to Seong-hyeon’s question with a smile as if he had been waiting.
“It is an honour.”
