Imagine Everyone in the Academy Using Medieval Weapons But this Guy Uses a F**in Gun! - Manhwa Recap

In every story there are main characters on whom all the attention is focused while no one pays attention to the secondary characters they are always around but no one cares about them in the body of such a minor character ended up our protagonist Kim hajin interesting fact he is the author of this novel in the world of which he found himself at first glance this story was the most ordinary and started like thousands of Others Dungeons and monsters appeared all over the Earth everything was plunged into chaos and Humanity was on the verge of Extinction

Korea had become the worst place on Earth but as always there were Heroes with Incredible Powers who began to defeat the monsters and destroy their layers in the dungeons hero guilds appeared and with their help Korea became the most prosperous place on Earth to train the strongest Heroes was founded an academy the cube in this Story there was a protagonist and his adversary but our hero became neither of them immediately upon entering this world the author has seemed to gain some sort of super hearing power he can hear the people of the crowd sharing their

opinions about Kim suho's rise both in positive and negative light but their opinion isn't of a concern to our protagonist it's the fact that he can hear everyone loud and clear despite sitting so far away from them as Kim Suho's promising results are brought to the table the Headmaster of the cube is impressed by his results she's even more impressed by suho's age as he's managed to achieve a successful track record at the age of 17 the name Kim suho runs a muck in the author's mind suho is supposed to be the main character of

this novel and the world that the author created he's the one who is supposed to lead the ruined state of the world to an Era of Harmony and peace since he is the Typical hero he possesses a hero's kindness as well as a striving heart for good but what's even more interesting is a dark secret that suho has been guarding with his life keeping that part of himself locked away with him aside our nameless author focuses on suho's Rival the guy who is supposed to oppose him in the story and give him some competition entering

the stage the second place Cadet is revealed to be Shin jong-hak he's a confident dare I Say rather arrogant guy he's your average trust fund baby because his dad owns one of the best companies in the country the author highlights that Jong Hawk's talents could potentially give the main character a really tough time especially because he later ends up turning into a villain and an evil character at the current stage of the world all of the important characters are just Cadets but in the near future Yung hok's constant comparison and Inferiority complex toward suho ends

in his demise he becomes evil in order to oppose suho in the hopes of overcoming him like opposite forces of both light and dark suho and Jong Haw stand against each other in the future while standing shoulder-to-shoulder in the present both main characters of the novel are right before his eyes once again the author is most certain that this is the same world of the novel which begs the big question if those two are the main characters Then what role does the author play in this story is he also important well he thinks that if

he's starting out in a novel he wrote he should have a name at least his thoughts are disrupted by another student who calls him chundong and asks if he got any sleep last night but okay the author now has a trillion questions to ask he can't even believe that he was called chundong just now the chubby fellow confirms that he's the only Kim chundong that he knows about The name chundong shoots down our boy's expectations tenfold he was at least expecting to become some kind of important character or have some important role to play like

in most transmigration isekai stories but this chundong fellow is so random that he didn't even write in the novel not even the author remembers writing about a nobody like his own character so this hot shot thinks something will be different if he just sees his face Because maybe that will help his memory a little and make him remember things better the burning question plaguing his mind is just who is this chundong guy at all the funniest part about this hilarious situation is when the author realizes that his face is nothing more than a question mark

he's not even important enough for the game to render a special face for him faced with this puzzling situation the author experiences a shock and tries to come to His senses he gains a realization at last there's nothing more than discovering your face is a damn question mark but check this chundong is not even a character he intended to place in the novel his character has no special appearance doesn't have a unique name and basically doesn't even exist in the significant landscape rejected by the world of his own creation the author faces despair realizing that

not even the crowd is focusing on his faceless Features it's like he's an NPC character a nobody that no one even cares about inside the cube he's the most normal person and will likely never even interact with the main characters or influence their stories if you thought you weren't the main character of your life think again then imagine this poor guy's situation he's nothing more than a mob even worse than a mob just a placeholder to fill up a seat in the game defeated the author shrinks Realizing that he's nothing more than an extra character

with no worth in the novel now for a little background on how he ended up here the author received a surprising email one day he was being offered a remake offer for the novel he wrote The Returned hero Kim hodan's fantasy novel is a story that he's barely continued after facing an extreme writing block of more than half a year here you ever feel like you start something but you can't find yourself Finishing it yeah that's basically what's happening to this guy hajin wondered what the email meant he figured that his fans wanted him to

remake the story a little especially since hajin stopped working on it the dude was already facing so much guilt for delaying his fantasy story and as an author he thought that it must be a prank or maybe even a weird request from one of his fans so as a responsible author he typed up a response and sent The mail this little and seemingly insignificant event then all altered his life forever transpiring the events of the current story where he unexpectedly ended up in his own creation back to where we left off with our question mark

this faceless freak is starting to adjust to his unique appearance after bearing with it for 2 weeks 14 days have already passed and nothing has changed he retains the same facial ambiguity as he started two weeks have confirmed to Him that his current life isn't Just a Dream but rather he's actually transported inside the novel every word inside the novel is hain's personal creation and now he walks in the midst of the characters he helped create and bring to life the Kim chundong character is one of the many extras in the novel despite hajin possessing

this guy's body as expected hajin tried many ways to string together information and conjure an explanation for how he ended up in This hole but his research went down the drain because he doesn't know how he ended up here or who was responsible what's more he's wondering how he's going to ensure his personal survival in this world especially since there's no hope of returning to his home planet hajin estimates that it's going to take a decade until they reach the point in the story when he stops writing but this thought just eats him alive the

horror of surviving for a whole 10 years In a foreign world as a nobody is terrifying to hajin his faceless appearance also doesn't help anything hajin Grieves for the life he lost and doesn't want to get stuck in a novel that didn't even reach its own completion an exhausted hajin once again decides to think of ways to undo the process of his transmigration the only loophole or perhaps exit route he sees is him catching up to the events of the main story after all there's a chance he Might be freed the author thinks that if

he just holds on until the story completes halfway he should be good it's not like he can do anything else to help Salvage his situation so this question mark looking NPC decides that it's what he's going to do but in order to achieve his goals he's going to relive as a high schooler again let's shift our Focus to the cube and explore what's so special about it it's a man-made Island harboring the best hero Cadets to lead The future generation it's like a mini Society of 50,000 residents the city is a standing example of innovation

and advancement reflecting the top tier magic and Industry skills of mankind the cube is single-handedly the reason Korea is considered a superpower in this novel standing before the hero Training Center hajin reflects that it's the main stage in his novel where everything relevant is supposed to happen it's a beautiful blue structure where Heroes train with Special skills the superpowers in hajin novels are called gifts and just like you'd expect every Hero has them however only the best of the best the top Elites are granted qualification to become the cadets of this facility the same goes

for chundong whose Body hajin Is possessing this boy is also supposed to be a Cub Cadet meaning he's probably got some skills going for him the problem is hajin has zero knowledge or idea of this guy's abilities so it's Kind of like starting from scratch and not knowing your powers even exist the author is at least confident that chundong might have some connection to the training center he's hoping to find whatever resources he can to use to his Advantage as that is the only way he's got a shot at surviving the terrifying school and its

Fierce Cadets hajin enters class Veritas a classroom considered the center of the cube Training Center this place has everyone The good the bad the cute and the Ugly there's Jong Haw and even the main character of the novel suho soon most of these characters will have their own objectives and run into different events which will cause many things to happen hajin takes his seat and feels disgusted by the fact that he's got to survive 10 whole years with this same class to top it off he doesn't even have a damn face to greet them with

confidence it's the worst outcome imaginable for the author After after class the students return to their dormitories hajin is no exception and doesn't really know how to describe his day he can't even figure out how he was able to focus in class when he first went to high school suddenly a delivery box grabs his attention this is quite unexpected for even the author as he never wrote about a delivery system in the game as he's unwrapping the Box various thoughts come to his mind he wonders if this is supposed to be chund Dong's personal belongings

to his utter shock it's hajin own laptop but this doesn't make any sense to even him an object like this shouldn't exist here the laptop kickstarts and a system screen begins sinking him hjin drops his laptop in panic and finds the system screen alerting about his synchronization with Chun dong the system downloads all of the necessary settings and presents him with a bunch of stats like strength intelligence and Even things like luck what's more they're the exact settings that Kim hajin wrote himself many questions strike his mind but before he's able to collect his thoughts

his body morphs as the synchronization finally reaches its completion the screen goes blank before alerting that he has achieved setting intervention ability The Faceless chundong body transforms into haji's real body completely resetting his stats hajun reality has been reset once again This time what he sees in the mirror is an actual face instead of the mockery that he received by seeing a question mark appearing but this is where things get even trickier than before tens of system screens are popping up out of nowhere and hajin doesn't know what they mean the system confirms his synchronization

process he wonders if this has something to do with a special process called enlightenment you see Enlightenment is an Awakening that Happens once a person surpasses their limitations that's what it's called in this world and hajin knows because he wrote the ability after the enlightenment ability one's gift superpowers skills are all transformed into a digital format this way the person can access them with ease the real kicker is the growth experienced by his body hjin will be allowed to become way stronger now that he's received a taste of Enlightenment in normal words Hajin can see

his status window which has a bunch of different points and talks about his abilities one of his powers is the observation skill which is pretty basic the same goes for his second skill reading he also has stats showing up for him although they're not remarkable and pretty tame hajin decides to inspect each status screen One By One The Most Interesting one is the synchronization tab which transformed him from chundong to his original body Causing a reset what he sees on the screen is beyond his imagination while he doesn't get how things change this way hajin

is convinced that the synchronization caused his face and appearance to change there's also the fact that his personal stats are way weaker than shindong who is supposed to be a Cadet of the school but instead of stats he gets points to compensate for his shortcomings anyway with that out of the way hajin fixates his attention on The unique Authority screen apparently he has the ability to create new objects by spending his SP points by doing so it will consume his SP bar but it can help unlock a world of new possibilities for him SP or

story points will only be obtained as the plot progresses and his importance increases what's unique about this aspect of the novel is that hajin doesn't even remember writing anything about story points from his side the author is soon to catch on that he must Increase his importance in the novel so that he could influence the story and gain story points as a consequence he's starting to piece together his objective in this world the reason he's getting access to his laptop as well as the status screens is because this man is supposed to go through hell

fighting monsters and eventually influencing the main storyline it's not an ideal outcome so hajen is already in the mood to curse the heck out of his own creation but Just as he's mouthing his frustration another screen prompts him surprising the author it's supposed to contain hidden information about something stuck in this rut hajin is frustrated that he has to interfere in this world so that he has a sliver of a chance of returning to his old one he gets up and starts running his fingers on his laptop since he doesn't have a choice hajin believes

it is better to act now rather than wait for the story to reach the point where His novel stopped there's also no guarantee if he will return to his previous world if he does reach that point the writer thinks that even even if the undisclosed information is irrelevant to his goal of returning home he could still find an important clue to navigate through his current world and make things simpler by helping him interact with the main characters in order to achieve his goal hain's only option is to fight and become strong he Starts investing his

points so that he could Outlast the story and whatever is supposed to unfold speaking of leveling up and increasing points hajin explains how his novel doesn't really have the concept of growing one's stats freely the leveling up show that happens in every other novel doesn't happen in this one the only method is to spend points making them invaluable to the users the best way to spend one's points is to concentrate all of their attention On luck it is the only stat that isn't limited and always reaps some effect it helps with money bonus and even

relationships the best kind of Stat one could ask for to help with one's daily life it's like a cheat code basically but for stats like luck points can't be used to raise its effect which makes hajen wonder if he can somehow influence and manipulate his luck stat by converting his points into SP points to test his hypothesis he decides to give It a shot by confirming the transfer of 10 points as a consequence they're converting into 10,000 SP points hajin decides to spend 9,000 SP points into his luck stat allowing it a boost of Nine

the mysterious luck ability activates and kicks into effect slightly bumping his luck stat by a point this means his luck passive stat affects even itself making it a really valuable investment hajin then focuses on the protagonist's stats suho's magic power Stands at a powerful nine and is capped at that level hajin has just surpassed that barrier by increasing his Lux stat to 9.1 as for the rest of his story points he decides to focus on perseverance to help him survive the harsh training of the facility thanks to hajin increasing his luck stat it also helps

with significantly boosting his perseverance ability when he boosts it with points he's already feeling grateful for its effects as the Investment is showing promising results suddenly the system glitches and issues him a warning screen his tampering with probability has caused an error to occur since hajin was basically cheating the system the system creates a restriction to prevent this loophole he can no longer manipulate his abstract stats with story points the author is a little peeved that he was hit with a restriction like that because otherwise he would be too overpowered hajin Realizes that he has

hit a wall with his gimmicks but still he managed to increase both luck and perseverance to a high level which should be enough for him to overcome many obstacles in the story a thought crosses his mind he gained 10,000 story points for being a novice those points can be used pretty sparingly hajin wants to put more thought into what he's going to invest them in so for now he decides to keep them aside the next morning he shows up In his class their Professor gives them an introduction Kim suyak will be acting as their instructor

for the next year he's globally recognized as one of the most capable Heroes notably standing in the intermediate grade five rank in the association concluding his introduction the man alludes to his point he mentions how the institution known as the cube isn't just a fancy place for the cadets to enjoy as they please its most reliable indicator is the student grade Which means failing to achieve them and uphold them to a standard will end up with the cadet getting kicked out it's also not easy to just maintain one's grades as only half of the cadets

will even manage to survive the program without bailing the institution strives and cultivates the next generation of Heroes so their category for judgment will also be harsh the instructor commands Tay students to get up and follow his lead as the first schedule Will talk about deciding on a main weapon for each Cadet entering the weapons room the students are left speechless eyeing down on all kinds of beautiful yet terrifying weapons their amazement is cut short by their hard ass of a teacher who reminds them that this isn't playtime for them to enjoy and commands the

students to pick a weapon at once he also advises them that after choosing a weapon they won't be able to switch from it for at least 6 months Which means if you make a mistake now you'll be stuck for half a year with a terrible weapon Kim suho the protagonist of the novel is drawn towards a sword and finds himself satisfied holding it one of the girls decides to pick a bow and arrow beleving that she's fit to become an Archer then there's a girl with blonde hair who prefers a Rapier for precise strikes the

other students also choose different weapons like whips and other things the author hajen is Contemplating how most of the main characters are simply choosing weapons without giving it a second thought but instead of focusing on what they're choosing he has to ultimately decide one weapon for himself as he lays down his options hajin believes that he has to be careful because even the slightest misstep could become a problem for him his current stats are seriously low so he can't compare to other Cadets when it comes to weapons like Spears or swords The same goes for

defensive Shields to make his selection process simpler hajin decides to carve out a bunch of conditions for his weapon selection the first aspect he is considering is that the weapon has been used in his previous world and the second factor is that he should be able to adapt to it with ease when it comes down to those two factors hajin finally decides to choose his weapon his selection in particular draws the attention of the rest of the Students even their teacher their teacher is bewildered and particularly addresses hajin asking if the gun he is holding

in his hand is really the weapon he's going to select it's funny how this man said I'll hle things the American way and bring a gun to a knife fight hajin receives a stare from his teacher who is confused because he remembers the cadet listing himself as a sword user back at his Academy deciding to come up with an excuse hajin states that he Changed his mind it's a surprising reason for his teacher to accept who can't grasp why hajin would decide to switch his weapon of expertise right when he entered the academy the teacher

confirms his choice as the student chooses their own fate in the cube in a wave of frustration he advises hajin to remember that his responsibility for choosing his fate rests with him suddenly the author's super hearing ability kicks into overdrive he hears Murmurs of the other students making fun of him for picking a gun none of them can comprehend his reason for using a firearm in an academy that is supposed to bring up Elite Heroes some of them even wonder if they should advise him during combat practice taking him for an attention seeker and nothing

more despite the crybabies making fun of this man the author explains that guns are actually reliable even in this world They're the best weapon for ordinary people who don't have access to magical superpowers the bullets used in this world are of a special kind Magic Bullets have Mana imbued inside of them releasing a destructive shot that's even more devastating and wrathful than normal bullets however those are the only advantages of a gun the reason they're seen as a terrible choice and neglected for their use is because they don't have the ability to grow in power

This is demonstrated by Kim hak who effort lessly smashes a bullet with his bare fists the author further adds that the limitation of the Magic Bullets rests in their destructive power which is always fixed no matter who is using the weapon the second reason relates to their build they have a weak origin and formation this world differs from the real one in the sense that myths and legends are actually materialized these myths and Relics are given form and made Into weapons causing the wielder an immense advantage in battle the older the origin the greater is

the formation overall boosting the weapon grade hierarchy which is the most crucial factor for how effective it is because of that nobody among the cadets tries to pick weapons that are modern and newly created since they have weak origin points for being made in the modern era older medieval weapons take more preference and are generally stronger Instead of relying on the destructive power of the Magic Bullets they rely on their personal skills and even Skyrocket their growth using the weapon power surpassing their limitations but everything hajin mentioned so far is basically useless for him he's

got nothing to benefit from and he's definitely not the protagonist of the story he doesn't know how a sword works and believes his skills with a melee weapon will be far worse than the other Cadets internalizing his thought process hajin believes that he chose a gun for a good reason he knows how to use it and it will effectively help him earn story points because simply using the gun is bound to help him Stand Out Among his peers the more important he is to the story The More Story points he will earn that's what he's

hoping for now that he's done figuring out what to do with a weapon his next concern comes with obtaining in talent talent is an ability Special to this world so special that it's considered a superpower every person is supposed to have only one Talent OR superpower but there are some individuals who are exempt from this rule there's the protagonist of the story suho who hasn't manifested his talent yet and already possesses the skills of a sword Saint the scene shifts to suho who catches up with naun to train his dense protagonist dialogue earns him nun's

anger who doesn't get How a dude like him ended up at the top of their class suho changes the topic and mentions that there's another top student beside him in class at first naun is confused but then she remembers he's talking about hajin that guy's name alone turns her face into a sour expression it's because this hajin student is a joke for being called the top student in class nun can't fathom how he's taken seriously when he's carrying a tiny dick pistol with a small Range she figures that the guy probably gave up on becoming

a hero and stuck to stupid weapons naun wonders if this is hajin strategy to drop out somewhere in the middle of the year but hearing those words suo can't help but criticize her for being rash about the situation naun doesn't get what he's yapping about and stares at him with a puzzled expression she lashes out on the guy for wasting her time instead of training while they're yapping about hajin he's out Here dozing and wondering if he will earn SP for people talking behind his back it's a really good question what do you guys think

tell me in the comments back to our boy hajin reflects that the protagonist of the story suho is supposed to become the greatest hero ever using his one gift which means gifts are also equally important to hajin he doesn't want to waste the opportunity of purchasing his first gift using his manual hajin writes himself a Dead eyee gift it's an ability to help him wield longrange weapons with precision as a consequence of him writing down his newest Power 10,000 SP points have been deducted from his account the system is so Advanced that it edits everything

else on its own providing him with numerous perks of the skill he just wrote like bullet time and others the skill is Handy for not just his gun but all weapons involving range which means hajian could also use Bose Now to top off the benefits it's a growth type skill so while it seems terrible at the moment he could always nurture it and grow his skills it's a valuable investment in the long run hajin Figures it's best to go with what he has and with his preparations finished he feels ready for what's to come with

the only gift he has all that's left for him is to bet everything on it and survive until the main story reaches its end the scene switches over To their class A teacher is explaining strategies regarding how the cadetes should deal with towers and dungeons the funniest part is for hajin to realize that the explanations he wrote in his novel are now appearing in the textbooks of this class imagine taking a class of materials you wrote and created hajin is having an easy time just enjoying the lecture since he doesn't really have anything new to

learn he's actively deploying his observation and reading Gift to help him more information about these two gifts is provided observation allows him to observe everything in his field of vision he can see through things and even read stuff from his laptop without having to waste effort the teacher instructs them to review the contents of the lecture since since their written exam is supposed to begin soon nun gets fired up in frustration she's bored to death and really can't stand the lecture suddenly class Veritas Is interrupted by someone who instructs the cadets to show up at

the plaza hearing this naun is excited she gets to escape the boring lecture it's finally time for practical training a subject that our boy hajin isn't looking forward to arriving in the training Arena the teacher explains how everyone should already know about the contents of the class first they will make teams of four Cadets each consisting of two Warriors a sharpshooter and finally One support Warrior further these teams will remain the same until their mid-semester exams come around all teams are supposed to be balanced between the high- ranking and low-ranking cadets for a Fair competition

the instructor tells them to go and find their teammates at once hajin glances at the status board shocked to note that he's neither in suho's team or naun worst of all he's stuck in a team with the one person he didn't want to pair up with the person In question is yanha drawing a surprising look from his face things are unraveling exactly like in the novel many main characters were written down specifically to interact with the main character of the story causing events to transpire and forward the story however among those characters Yona is the

most special she Dons a beautiful purple hair and is simultaneously the top favorite Cadet of Korea's best Guild the essence of the straight what's more she's the Successor of the U family so her family background is pretty strong too in the original novel suho is supposed to oppose Yona at the beginning but eventually he gains her trust and they become friends later becoming the supporter of the team for this same reason it's crucial for hajin to grow closer to Yona because interacting with her will allow him to get even more story points helping him become

important in the story with a determined Expression hajin is prepared to do whatever it takes to attract Yana's attention and involve himself with her Yana's team members come and greet her apart from her and hajen there's hosung and hazuki making them a team of four just like planned since yanha is a thoughtful and calculating person she contemplates speaking with them at first but ultimately accepts because they're her teammates what's funny is that she boasts a blooming and formal attitude With her teammates once she decides to talk to them both of her teammates are weirded out

but Yana turns her attention to the final member of the group hajin makes his presence known by coming forward and approaching her while he's a little scared he knows that yanha will have a sour relationship with him if he's not confident in carrying himself hosung interrupts his train of thought and immediately calls him out for being the Hot Shot who chose a gun as his Weapon the dude is busy yapping around carelessly not knowing that their teacher is about to slap the out of him for chatting ignorantly hosing receives a jump scare from their instructor

who Roars at them to get moving with the Monster hunting Mission the directions have already been provided to each team through their smart watches our team gets their move on and paces in the grainfield Yana checks her Smartwatch indicating that They're close to their target she wants her team to buckle up and prepare for what's to come further information regarding the monster will be revealed when they arrive at the location but while they're easily sprinting ahead our poor boy is suffering out here he needs some David goggin's level of motivation because this man has never

run this much in his life despite his stamina stats being above average he could barely keep up with his team to make matters worse It's not like these guys are special they're the average standard recognized for a cube Cadet Jana and The Others Stop realizing they've arrived at their targets location this part of the map is called the eighth coast of the training Zone ahead is a boat where a monster is supposed to appear speaking of our creepy crawly the black hump octopus makes itself known by devouring the boat with its giant tentacles before confronting

the monster in a head-on Battle yanha believes it would be best if they shared a battle strategy and worked on what they should do the monster they're facing is a low intermediate grade creature and its physical attack is known to be very weak the real problem is the humps pointing out on the creature's head it's explained that the black hump octopus detects danger and shoots out baby octopuses to attack its enemies these small babies are no joke they're Bloodthirsty and every single one of them is dangerous enough to turn humans into mummies hassing suggests they

immediately Target the throng of baby octopuses when the fight kicks off the girl hazuki believes they're going to need a sharpshooter to handle the small octopuses with his gun so she thinks hajen would be best for that however opposing this idea strongly Yana claims that she's going to be the one to handle the baby octopuses instead She wants the rest of her team to save their abilities after she's done because yanha thinks they'll need to annihilate the monster in one hit since since it has super fast regeneration abilities Yonk sudden dismissal of hajin contribution strikes

him as odd he immediately figures out that she's just ignoring him and doesn't even believe he's worthy to be a part of this training y asks if the rest of her team is ready she marks the beginning of Their operation leaving our boy a little annoyed by her damn attitude the black hump octopus unleashes its destruction by destroying the boat while hung uses his battle ax to draw the creature's attention towards him his loud stammering sound is enough to catch the octopus and lure him close to the shore enraged the monster blitzes towards hung and

unleashes itself poor guy is scared shitless by its sheer size and runs the heck away hazuki is prepared while our Boy hajin is also nervous holding a tiny Glock the only determined fighter among them is Yona a whip user who is ready to strike down the monster at once just like they discussed the black hump octopus senses danger and immediately shoots out many baby octopuses from the top of its head this causes hung to panic because he realizes that he's the one being targeted the Mur ing babies are headed straight to bite his ass down

before they could make a Gojo KitKat out Of him Yana steps up like a queen and uses her whip to cut the down she stands majestically before the monster impressing the likes of her teammate with a display of her power to top it off Yana's combat capabilities alone render her the seventh strongest Cadet inside the cube among the newbies she allows husung the chance to run away while she's holding the monster by herself Yana manipulates her whip to strike the monster causing the octopus To go berserk and strike her down with its tentacles y quickly

Dodges its attack by evading but right as she's in the air a baby octopus is sneakily about to attack her from behind huki alerts her to care for the octopus behind her back before Yan can react to the creature it is shot down by a long-range weapon baffling her only one explanation makes sense it's hajin gun who saved her just now seeing him save her annoys yonah who finally acknowledges his name Let's take a little detour and discuss what SP points are capable of like previously stated they can be exchanged for stat points they also

increase when hjin importance among the main characters and the story Rises since he's supposed to be nudged in as an extra nobody standing out and gaining popularity is a tough thing the main characters already fill up the story after all so the only other option to gain importance is for hajin to interact And help with the story of the main protagonist that's what he did by Saving yon's life just now his shot shocks each of his team members a distracted Yana reminds him to know his place since she wasn't expecting him to take part in

the operation but while she's distracted the giant octopus shits out more of its fun-sized models for them to deal with yanha prepares to fight them but some of them are even targeting hajin it's not a tough fight for the author who can read Their attack patterns with ease hajin closes his eyes concentrating his full attention to performing his best in the given moment he activates one of his skills called bullet time which was one of the gifts that the system created and edited for him using it slows down the perception of time for 3 seconds

easily allowing hajin to become John Wick and shoot these ugly bastards with ease after locking his aim down on each of his targets the dude Embraces his American rights and goes all guns blazing on these by the time 3 seconds are up hajin has shot every single one of the creatures with his gun even the ones that were targeting Yona the duration runs out unleashing his bullets to fly away and zap each of the octopuses to paste now yanha senses the opportunity to strike the giant octopus's head unleashing her whip she binds the humps and

commands her team to strike hassing and huki make their move Unleashing magic Liberation strike and slaying the monster in a powerful joint attack the black hump octopus is defeated at last with its ugly brains hitting the shore an exhausted hodin crashes down in typical anime character fashion after that their team's Collective results are calculated allowing them a clearance time just underneath 1 hour it's far from the best but it still earned them 16th Place in the ranking board with that the first Monster round has been cleared the total time spent eliminating the monster lands them

the 16th spot among the hundred teams Yan is shocked to see this their fight was recorded via a drone device for monitoring purposes they can use that data to analyze their mistakes and improve in the future while 16th Place is an accomplishment to yanha it's a terrible score she was looking for something higher she's even more jealous that naun casually acquired a higher Score than her in individual and team performance ranking her the fourth out of the hundred teams while she intended to increase the gap between their families yanha can't believe she's so far behind

her then there's Jong Hawk the Arrogant Punk who seems to have a liking for naun and keeps staring at her from afar now pissed Jana gets annoyed and approaches naun with her unbridled rage but in a funny turn of events she acts all buddy buddy with her like a Fake friend she tries to extract information regarding nun's performance in her team the girl is still annoyed that they got fourth place since she was looking forward to beating Yong haak at the minimum Yana confesses that she earned 16th Place her expression is a calm and stoic

face on the outside but on the inside she's chewing her brains out angered Beyond hell but naun is rather amazed that she acquired 16th place with a loser like hajin on her Team after all she thinks he must be the reason they were stuck behind a low ranking but yanha knows the truth the reason she was treating him like is because they took 50 minutes to travel to their location because of our boy's stamina if only he was faster they could have arrived in 10 minutes and completed the mission faster but apart from that his

performance has been impressive to her he significantly helped in the monster battle they faced Yana keenly remembers how he shot down every single one of the baby ERS with his gun before they could even reach them yanha pers if an achievement like that is even possible with the use of Regular Magic Bullets since hain's accomplishments seem effortless and strong all of a sudden from having no interest in him Yona is now curious about the man's true identity as for our boy hajin he's just gotten done working out I bet he must be steamrolling Himself to

get better stamina after what happened back there the author explains that he forgot to check his alarms ever since he started training and wonders how much he gained points since luck is always help helping him out at Max potential his accuracy for defeating the monster has shot up dramatically his gift has also experienced growth now every single shot will be considered a bullseye Target hajin senses like eyesight and hearing have also sharpened And overall story points increased by just 27 remembering what happened with his performance in the monster round hajin reflects that luck must be

playing a key role then too helping out with his SP points his overall plan to involve himself with yanha is going well so far helping him with the points he needs his physical stats have also increased thanks to his training strength endurance and health have all experienced a boost which is further Amplified by his luck stat since hajin has already worked on his stats to this degree he believes that he should conclude his training session for the day and head home back at her dorm room Yana is busy reviewing the footage of their fight in

the monster round she's specifically drawn to hajin Crazy shooting skills as he was able to shoot 60 bullets in the span of 3 seconds with a single handgun for reference Yona tries to play around with the idea of Shooting 20 bullets a second it just seems impossible to her to do that with a handgun which makes her wonder if it was an automatic pistol of some kind she comments on his physical stats too hajin agility is great but his typical health and physicality is lower than the rest of the cadets to top it off he

switched weapons out of the blue at the weapon selection Yana's sharp senses are telling her that something is wrong she doesn't even remember this guy from the Military academy either while she's contemplating yanha receives a message from Jong Haw who she seems to find as a love interest she tells him that she's busy analyzing the footage Jana wants to see if she struck gold among her team since she obviously plans to take over the top Guild in Korea in the future but Jong Haw is surprised and doesn't think anyone among her team is noteworthy or

special more importantly he wants to Know about the mysterious shooter since his performance is the only one y Hawk is curious about with a smile on her face Yana is excited that her crush is displaying an interest in her after all Jana comments that he's doing just okay for his rank which by the way is in the 900s among the cadets Jong Haw is surprised and wonders if hajin got lucky yon reflects on this comment and wonders if hajin performance was really a fluke and if he really did get lucky the scene Ends there so

let's talk about a new subject The Guild building known as the holy grace of God here the Vice Captain is obsessed over suho's Stellar performance his footage among the rest has captivated sua the vice captain of The Guild she comments on suho's perfect and precise movements as well as excellent swordsmanship unlike anything seen before suho has achieved such Perfection that it seems like he's playing around in a gentle dance there's Also his wrathful cutting Force slicing away the very space in half all three top guilds in Korea currently have their eyes set on this young

Talent they're hellbent on recruiting him for his powers sua is among those people as she wants to recruit him as soon as possible especially since he's currently a free agent her next topic of interest is hajin as shocking as that sounds she's surprised that the boy uses a handgun of all weapons her assistant confirms Stating that he sparked an interest in the The Guild Community many people reviewed the footage since yanha was a part of his team and they wanted to view her performance the Hot Topic on the forums is how he shot 60 rounds

with a non-automatic pistol in 3 seconds it doesn't make any realistic sense because even if they accounted for his extreme agility hodan's gun wouldn't be able to survive the brunt of so much recoil in so little time since his talent is Surrounded by a wave of mystery and Allure some people have started calling him unorthodox the Vice Captain also comes to learn that he switched his main weapon from a sword and transition to using a handgun right after coming to the prestigious institution sua recognizes him as someone who has achieved Enlightenment the same phenomenon in

which a person manifests their talent or special ability it's of course impossible to know from the start What talent will be manifested because of that some Cadets prefer to switch weapons right after manifesting their gifts since it doesn't match what they're currently using however this kind of situation is known to cause a rift in the cadet's career setting them back by at least three years in terms of performance that's why the military academy usually encourages the students to become involved with numerous weapons and master them instead of relying on a Single one sua can't grasp

the fact that the boy became an enlightened Warrior at the age of 17 but she thinks his talent is limited if it is only related to guns still she thinks he's worthy enough to be reviewed as a candidate sea quickly changes her mind and decides that it would be best to allow hajin talent to manifest before they attempt to recruit him she wants to see if he's really capable of achieving her expectations as an unorthodox it's Wednesday which means A training session is going on suho is facing another student in an equal Clash this part

of the training program is called the anti-personnel training it's usually executed by twers groups where only training weapons are used allowing for easy results and little to no injuries however for Kim hodin he's being roared at for performing the worst poor guy has the shittiest luck in the world despite his passive skill he's the only student who had to face his teacher Instead of another student and as a result he lost 18 times straight the real issue with this training is that training guns aren't ready to be used which means using a real gun is

obviously going to cause injury if he faces another student that's why the instructor himself has taken responsibility to face hajen and handle him poor guy is suffering and calls for surrender but his pathetic whining is ignored by his teacher who prepares to Chuck a fist in his face before his punch reaches hajin the warrior evades a Critical Strike that crushes the ground his teacher is shocked that he dodged the attack hajin proceeds to dodge another two punch from him leading the instructor to realize that while he seems like a trash student with shitty posture he's

actually got a Godly pair of eyes for tracking his attacks Clairvoyance yet another skill hajin obtained as part of his dead eyee gift This sharpens his senses and allows him to detect a target's movement path helping hajin Loosely evade every attack it's true that he can see the attacks but the worst part is dodging with his own body the rest of the students view his performance and chalk it down as clumsy and lazy the gang may be making fun of him for being a loser it still helps boost his story points by 40 so in

a way he did manage to get what he wanted but he hates the fact that people Are making fun of him after the exhausting training hajin relaxes by taking a refreshment when he turns to his right he sees yanha passing him by she shares a look of disgust on her face almost as if she views him as an inferior nobody it's funny because he's the author who wrote about her personality in the first place he's in an experimental mood today and decides to call out yon's name before tossing her a drink she catches it with

her Reflexes and confusingly asks if he's taunting her to a fight Bros RZ is so bad that she's out here thinking he's literally trying to attack her hajin explains that he's just trying to extend his gratitude to Yona for helping them advance in the training session in his head this experiment may be simple but it's an important one he wants to see just how much story points he will achieve in a simple interaction from one of the main characters of the story After all he tends to gain 40 from the side characters Yana tosses him

his drink back and reminds the idiot not to address her so casually a first warning that he shouldn't take lightly while she turned turns away hajin has a smile on his face because he's already gotten what he wanted as Yona is carrying her bag outside she is puzzled to find that her bag is heavier than before detecting the subtle change she opens it up only to find another can inside our smartass Author was sneaky enough to plant a second one inside of her bag earning Yan's hatred she wants to smash the can but remembers that

a simple innocent can didn't do anything wrong by itself when it comes to yanha she loves ordinary food like burgers and Coke however she has never never seen purchasing the product for herself because of her family's reputation this experiment relied on hajin exploiting this part of her personality a part that no one else Should know about what's more is that he didn't really earn much points from a small conversation once again motivating him to take action in the events of the main story since he already knows what's going to happen next hajin believes the national

weapons Museum's demonic human Ambush is soon to take place demonic humans are evil entities who have made a pact with a demon they're granted a significant amount of power in exchange for their souls this way the demons use Them as their tools to do their biddings the incident to happen in the future will be caused by a demonic human who is currently hiding in the museum with the goal of eliminating a particular Target eventually the Demonic human is defeated by suho and the rest of the main characters who also happen to be there at the

event through this event suho gains the recognition and validation of the other main characters the main protagonists will be suho and naun who Are going to fight against the Demonic humans the villain won't be too difficult to deal with since this happens right at the beginning of the novel and is effectively suho's first enemy knowing what will happen ahead hajen is already thinking of ways to intervene in the event while he's figuring out a way to join the museum one of the instructors shouts at him for standing pointlessly outside the dorms hajin decides to take

his laptop and Leave during the same time he receives an important system message yet to be revealed in this institution there are clubs that are used for extracurricular activities within the academy Cadets can register themselves in a gathering in where they form their own independent activities among those clubs are academics martial arts and even simple Hobbies like painting and other instruments hundreds of clubs exist inside the cube perhaps the greatest Benefit is that they not only host a space for personal development but also allow the cadets to connect Network and know each other better so

it finally came the day where hajin decided he was going to join a club of his own at the cube gate hajin makes himself part of the travel Club where he is greeted by Han hun the club's president he's excited to welcome many club members from the first years in fact when receiving the applications for the first Time hanun couldn't believe what he was reading he's been blessed with amazing Cadets after all hanun welcomes them aboard once more and highlights the goal of their Club the goal is to rest which sounds simple enough they can

access a portal up to twice a month to travel outside of the cube for their first ever orientation hanun states that they'll be visiting a nearby location that location is none other than Soul the capital of Korea the author processes his thoughts Realizing that a trip to Soul should be easily managed if they just made groups of two so far nothing has changed from the novel hajin glosses over his objective for the day which is to take part in the First main story arc called The Soul weapon Museum when he's there with some of the

main characters henin will attempt to manipulate the story from his side the club president instructs them to go on ahead and draw Lots which actually catches hajin Attention as he never intended the group formation to be this way in the novel still it doesn't bother him since this guy could care less and move on his own when it comes to his group's partner lo and behold you'd be surprised but he ended up pairing up with yanha of all people yanha being herself emphasizes with caution that they should just move on their own hajin is okay

with that and leaves her to her business before leaving yanha turns around with a lethal Look on her face the face that screams I will kill you if you ever talk to me casually one more time this being his second offense hajin receives his final warning as Yona isn't planning on letting him off next time the guy simply accepts his fate and moves forward Ward the scene shifts to the National weapons Museum which is supposed to be the center stage for the first Arc of the story it's the largest exhibition Hall of weapon replicas across

the entire Country while it's a remarkable place hajin is breezing through the crowd with disinterest he spots naun to his left who seems to be obsessed with a particular weapon since nayun is close by hjin realizes that the main protagonist of the story must also be near him suho is just up ahead observing a weapon on his own as the main protagonist of the novel hajin attempts to spark conversation with him and asks if he's checking out the seven branched Sword he also introduces himself at the same time which reminds suho of who he is

he keenly remembers him as the Sharpshooter who joined the travel Club hajin reflects on suho's personality as he was written to be strong and handsome with a good heart often times his very own readers left the author hate comments for making an unrealistic and cheesy character damn I guess haters keep hating all of a sudden suho claims that there's a gun exhibition close by And he's interested in checking it out with hajin while Ain accepts his idea he thinks their meeting at the gun exhibition won't even happen because of what's to come from out of

nowhere the museum goes red and a transmission sounds the warning of monsters appearing right outside the museum the appearance of monsters strikes fear in the hearts of the civilians their excitement turns to horror as they all begin to panic and frantically start looking for an exit The people push each other around ignoring even the children and simply acting recklessly in this state of panic and Chaos one person punches the glass with his fist gaining everyone's attention his sheer power alone stops them dead in their tracks even suo is shocked when he finds out that nun's

the one responsible she tells everyone to calm down as the Museum's Reserve hero will be here soon to combat the threat using this Opportunity she snags the bow from the exhibition and reminds everyone that they'll just be living targets for the monsters if they rush outside but her Reckless move causes the security systems to go off and trapping them all in place inside she tells everyone to grab a weapon since they need a way to protect themselves until the real heroes show up to confront the threat suddenly naun senses the presence of a dangerous man

in the distance and prepares herself This man radiates a dark energy of red his face and violent Aura confirms that he's a demonic human who is responsible for this devious plan hajin reflects that this demonic human is called the dog of Lucius who becomes a villain that is pivotal for suho's growth in the story The Demon unleashes its claws preparing to cut nyun down but right as he's distracted and focusing on what's ahead suho uses this moment to jump him from behind with his seven branched Sword his sword is about to slice the demon clean

and the events of the main story still haven't changed it's destined for suho to defeat this demon with ease but for some shocking reason suho is wiped away in a devastating attack his body suffers a terrifying Blow from the villain and flops to the ground right before hajin eyes the author is expressionless and speechless this wasn't supposed to happen after all suho's body is on the ground just a few Moments away from hajin who can't figure out what happened clearly the story he wrote himself wasn't supposed to happen like this suho was supposed to win

and even though he would have struggled in the beginning he still has the power to completely annihilate the Demonic human that's what he thought was going to happen but it didn't suho's easy takedown causes naun immense worry as she screams his name coughing blood he's barely capable of standing hajin knows That his condition is in grave danger and he certainly doesn't have enough time to recover from this Monumental setback the Demonic human approaches suho with his menacing energy preparing to finish him off naun struggles to come up with a plan and speedily launches her arrows

right in his face but this guy is such a tank he eats that in the face like it's his lunch a confused naun relentlessly tries to shoot him down but nothing works as he seems to be Invincible against her arrows knowing that none of her arrows are having any effect on him nun's face succumbs to despair her confidence wavers and she simply can't fathom what's happening what's more is that the Demonic human isn't even using a special talent or skill to block her arrows no he's just taking it with the brunt of his body that's

just how strong his physical stats are hjin senses danger for nayun as she's being approached by the enemy The Demonic human releases its claws aiming right for her face it seems like the end for naun right until suho jumps back into the fight with a kick in the face thankfully he was able to get up with naun stalling for time before they can even catch up with each other suho is sent flying barely being capable of blocking the dark energy wave with his sword the Demonic human then Surprises suho by entering a transformation State engulfing

himself with his shadowy or His strength becomes so overwhelming for suho that he is taken down immediately nun starts shooting the Demonic human from behind in an effort to delay suho's demise turning his attention back to her the monster releases a giant claw targeting nun's face and smashing her into the wall everything that hajin is witnessing before his eyes is the definition of a disaster he's horrified by the reality that either of them could die at this point now that he's seen two Instances of his novel going against the script he wrote hajin can't figure

out what's causing things to change so much in the main story he kicks open his laptop in an effort to help Salvage the situation hajin gathers his bullets with his wavering confidence realizing that he won't be able to injure the Demonic human with his Mana bullets at all even if he uses them for a critical hit it's just going to be difficult still since this world was created by Him hajin is Confident that most of the important settings shouldn't change and knowing that he plucks away at his keyboard modifying the attributes of his Mana bullet

to fit his purpose he increases the attack power to six points and spends a total of 100 story points just to make the modification possible loading his magazine right back into his gun hajin prepares for the fight and emphasizes the importance of having Heroes with versatile skill sets to Overcome the situation attributes and Affinity alone allows him to climb to Greater Heights as suho and the Demonic human are locked in a stalemate this gives hajin the perfect opportunity to take his shot knowing that the Demonic human boasts a dark attribute hajin uses the only attribute

that will exterminate Darkness he calls for suho's name and shouts at him to move out of his way commanding the use of the light attribute hajin created the white light Bullet he releases a single shot that confirms the hit with the Demonic human's body and releases a blue beam of light that one bullet completely destroys the Demonic human's arm rendering him a great deal of pain while at the same time freeing nayun from his grasp as the dark energy evaporates nayun falls to the ground while hajin thinks his contribution is enough now that the enemy

is severely injured allowing suho enough time to finish the Fight his body is shaking from the use of his ability as he places the rest of his hopes on suho entrusting the story's protagonist to finish the fight with a final attack suho charges his weapon and covers his body in an aura of blue he activates the sword Saints magic power which is so strong that it can throw anything in existence the ultimate slash definitively ended the fight as suho destroys the Demonic human with one move the monster is defeated as his body hits The floor

an exhausted suho is barely Clinging On which is the same for naun he catches up with her and asks if she's okay distraught and angry she whacks his arm away hajin recommends that they leave her as she is since her brother will soon arrive to comfort her in this situation he knows this because it happens in the original story but his carelessness got the better of him as he received a shocking stare from both of the main characters after all an extra Character like him shouldn't know anything about their lives nun's voice flickers as she

tries to interrogate him but her condition gets the better of her so she stops meanwhile the monsters just outside the museum are shot down by the Vice Captain and her dual blades thankfully the situation outside is resolved and the monsters have all been killed she asks about the situation inside the museum and learns about the Demonic human who was instantly killed Thanks to the cadets of the cube wanting to know more about them she asks for their names the Vice Captain is shocked to learn that naun suho and hajin were all involved in the incident

she rushes right to the museum because all she cares about is meeting suho right now her excitement makes her wonder what she should discuss with him hajin is coming out of the museum when he suddenly run runs into her curious as she is she tries to inquire for suho hajin is Already one step ahead of her and tells the Vice Captain that he's inside the museum she goes inside but at once experiences a shock because this random Cube Cadet seemed to know her intention of finding suho in the first place yet another blunder caused by

our believable author the dude is catching a break at a park and reflects that he didn't expect sa to run into him like that he wonders if the situation is relevant to the story changing in some ways to collect His thoughts hajin tries to take it from the beginning he considers himself as nothing more than a foreign extra character and deems his current importance as insignificant the story has been progressing smoothly without any problem so far so it's impossible that he was directly involved in altering its route but then the realization finally hits him he

forgot about one thing and that one thing is the fact that this novel also has a Co-author I bet you weren't expecting that plot twist hajin explains the current version of the story is a remake of his novel this version is based around the email he received from one of his fans at the beginning of the story that's why stuff outside of his expectations happened in the main story arc however if that is the case then the predictions he was operating under so far will now all be useless this thought terrifies hajin because he won't

know What will happen next he checks his laptop there's a message regarding a critique the message reads that there weren't any main threats in the story allowing the protagonist to easily SWAT away any threats and achieve a smooth Victory this kind of development will just risk the reader getting fed up with the story and getting bored that's why why from now on every single boss character in the story has become significantly stronger than from before Regardless of the fact that it may create an unpredictable and chaotic story setting their instructor calls both hajin and suho

after the incident for a report he has briefly explained the situation and doesn't want to go in depth regarding the specifics for now placing priority over their well-being first a curious and worried suho asks about nun's condition and comes to learn from the instructor how she applied for a medical leave and left with her family For the time being the instructor advises both of them to follow suit and return to their dorms as well saying that he leaves them be allowing suho the chance to speak with hajin as he calls out his name the blue-haired

protagonist wants to inquire further he wants to know why he said what he did to naun about her brother for a moment hajin seems puzzled but then he remembers his words he tries to talk about it but remembers the mail he received from the Co-author and for some reason chooses to stop and ask why it matters to suho the protagonist is obviously not a dumbass and feels rather annoyed that hajin is playing the part of an idiot and taking him seriously in his state of annoyance he decides that they'll talk about it some other time

let's Deep dive into CH nun's character the author explains that she graduated fourth from her year in the military academy she's currently enrolled at the cube recognized for her Talents and her connections to the Chay family she's the daughter of shinuk and the younger sister of janun both are recognizable names to hajin who is conducting research on her right now what he doesn't get is why she reacted in the way that she did when he brought up her brother's name suddenly hajin reads a news report involving jun's condition resulting in critical Health after a monster

operation as a consequence janun was left in a coma the Operation that led to his demise is one that hajin knows about fiend suppression operation Firestorm was supposed to be an event that allowed Jin Yun to build his reputation by neutralizing the threat this would help Jin Yun improve his relationship with the main story's protagonists even more for the young naun the only thing that sparked joy in her eyes was seeing her older brother's success as a a hero however the event has completely changed now and it's Different from the author's wildest imaginations gin Yun

is the one who caught up in his demise leading to nun's trauma just then he receives another mail from the system notifying him that any further modifications to the story will immediately be revealed to hajin as soon as he points out the changes from the original story the system also relays that Jin yun's brother and the supporter of the protagonist Kim suho has undergone significant changes in This iteration of the story we're given a SE of what went down the Gravely injured hero was barely awake after suffering a brutal strike the co-author recognized that the

protagonist already had way too many supporters which is why they made the chances necessary to ensure some of them were taken out poor Jun had to be one of those people four years in the past just after being appointed hero for the first time janun ended up becoming a demon seed yes it's Much more terrifying than hajin wildest imaginations as he could never have predicted such a horrifying plot twist the scene cuts to nun's place the radio transmission is talking about the sudden monster attack that occurred at the national museum reporting a casualty count of

seven with 50 people injured from the incident a devastated naun can't bear to hear the news and turns the transmission off she sulks in her bed all by herself while her worried Father comes shouting her name naun sees him and wonders what he's doing out of Duty Shin huk doesn't give a damn about his work and asks about her health since she's at the hospital he wants her to have a full checkup just to be sure but naun pretends to be fine and just all right she she's trying her best not to make her father

worry and even thinks he did too much on his part by coming to visit her but of course he's still a worried father who cares for his Daughter despite her claims of being fine nayun addresses her father and requests wanting to see janun at least once before she's discharged from the hospital seeing her fragile state her father approves his daughter's request let's go back to the jun's demise and explore what demon seeds are demons are supposed to be the most powerful entities in this world more powerful than even the fiends are humans they possess a

unique yet terrifying ability To Target humans and turn them into demonic seeds the humans who have been marked demon seeds eventually go through a period of incubation no different from a parasitical state where the parasite is feeding on its host before long the demon seed completely takes over their body turning that person into a fully transformed demon this means jun's condition is much worse than anticipated and he's going to One Day become a demon the incubation period usually lasts for Half a decade before the transformation kicks in and it's been 4 years since the event

happened meaning jun's condition is nearing his end and he'll soon become a demon his little sister is on her way to see him in his room as she enters his room hajin reflects that there's only one solution in these situations before the demon inside someone's body fully manifests and takes over the human the only way to prevent a gruesome fate is to kill them that's what naun intends to Do as she stands before her brother's unconscious State preparing herself to speak to him at the same time the author thinks that it's just going to be

impossible since no one seems like the candidate to pull it off to kill genuine before he transforms into a monster not even a mercenary would agree to take on such a dangerous Target as Shin hu is supposed to pass down his position to the next Air Jun the germination process also advances without any physical Changes effectively stopping intervention from outside the biggest problem is the demon lurking inside Jin Yun will be way too strong and overwhelming for the story's main protagonist Kim suho to handle hajin also believes that if actual Heroes tried to stop a

demonic June many of their lives would be lost dealing with with a powerful demon like that in order to prevent that dark future from coming into existence hajin wants to do Whatever it takes to stop jun's germination especially since the heroes are necessary in the future events to come as nayun sits before her brother's unconscious body hajin gets a chilling sensation and a crushing sense of defeat because he has realized what he has to do in this situation he has to be the one to commit the heinous act of taking a life as it will

prevent the darker future to come naun speaks to her brother talking about the near-death Incident she had in the monster attack today she never fought a fiend so powerful before and believed that any ordinary Cadet wouldn't have been able to stop that monster annoying as it is to admit naun remembers hajin being the Sharpshooter who intervened and saved their lives she ultimately decides against talking about him and comes to learn that she has overstayed in her visiting hours naun decides to leave hoping to return to her brother soon but As she's leaving naun stops dead

in her tracks feeling a looming sense of dread coming up her brother she had tried suppressing her memory but there's no way she could forget about hajin words with such cold eyes he said those words which she interpreted as him bullying her in her State nun's eyes flare up in determination and anger remembering what hajin said letun go to the Tower of Heroes and see what Vice Captain SAA is doing she's out here viewing Unauthorized documents on her own risking her position and potentially getting in trouble SAA is interested in checking the records regarding the

Museum's attack which is exactly what's concerning her assistance and she's doing something illegal anyway sa learns from the investig that many traces of light attribute magic were discovered from the body of the defeated demonic human which also means that the people responsible for taking him down must Have been capable of casting the attribute in the first place the thoughts of a light attribute Mana user sparking up from out of nowhere is exciting for the Vice Captain since this type of hero would be an easy fight for the fiends they're all dark attributes and light Mana

is their biggest weakness sua wants to recruit this mysterious hero and can't wait to collect the new Talent observing the footage files sa vividly members there being only three Cube cadets at the Museum which means only one of them must be a light attribute user there's the obvious regarding suho and naun since they're already active on the hunt for both of their talents but the Vice Captain is most curious about the third Cadet who they have yet to know about to her shocking realization the final Cadet is none other than Kim hajin the same boy

who bumped into her at the Museum before leaving speaking of our boy he's busy Typing away at his laptop kind of like me right now the author expresses his new enlightenment it turns out that no one in this world can visibly see the laptop he's working on which is why he's easily capable of looking through the story's path without really worrying about the other characters observing him as soon as he came to learn about the invisible laptop hajin went the extra mile into adding another feature immediately his laptop alerts him about The changes in the

story in the training center Rachel is giving Demian a really tough time this chick has handed him nearly 20 L's back to back to the point he's begging for someone to trade partners with him the newest feature hajin is related to detection and alteration if something changes within 30 m from the original story hajin will be sent an immediate alert and this would further help him identify unusual situations in time after all he can't Simply wait for the co-author messages or rely on himself to detect everything detail by detail using this method he has made

sure to stay on top of any unexpected situations but while our boy is happy about the feature he certainly didn't expect a terrifying bloodlusted naun popping up from behind distraught and angered she requests a sparring match against our boy hajin stares at her and simply declines as it wouldn't really benefit him to fight her nun Calls him a coward for backing out and immediately points him blame for bringing up her family out of nowhere the rest of the students wonder if a fight is about to break out hjin explains that he isn't participating because of

his bullets since they could deal her some serious injuries in a training session and he doesn't want to be a part of that naun takes this comment as a mark of condescension only getting infuriated at him more the Training instructor arrives just in time to interrupt their argument he Roars at naun for trying to fight with the cadet Kim hajin especially because he's the only student without a training weapon considering the potential risks and injuries involved hajin is strictly prohibited from training with other students naun storms off in Anger leaving hajin to realize that it

may be far too late to issue an apology at this point I mean what he did was a stupid Move as the author but nothing can be done now hajin emphasizes that he has a different priority in mind which is why he's been training like hell to get even stronger as evident by the bruises on his hand that priority is none other than killing nun's older brother which is also why apologizing to her seems like a fruitless case if he gets close to her now it's going to ruin everything between them later and cause naun

an even worse betrayal the scene cuts from There and transitions to another club orientation there are many students who have gathered here the club president is Yun hun who leads the Varity Study Club he outlines the main goal of their club which is to conduct monster analysis and specialize in tactics research their goal is to meet together and engage in active discussions regarding monsters while he's giving out the orientation speech many students are simply Charmed by his presence and Allure This Charming Character possesses a unique quality to capture everyone's attention without fail but it's all

a facade and the only one who knows this is the author hajin internalizes that hun is using the power of a demon he circles back to the first half of the story which involves the institution Cube as its Center Stage various events like Cadet disappearances and monster invasion are supposed to occur at this level and this guy hun the leader of the club president is actually A slick bastard who is manipulating events from behind the scenes his looks are just deceiving hun is responsible for forming a pact with the demon Lilith and in exchange for

earning her powers of Enchantment he became a fiend because of hunk's true dark objectives hajin explains that he joined the study club for a reason among the cadets yanha seems to also be unfazed by Hun's Charming appearance the club president decides to showcase the students part of Their usual routine and how they conduct analysis a hologram of the Upper Intermediate monster called Monster Tyrant is brought up on stage this monster first appeared right out of the explosive event that caused the invasion of towers and dungeons in their world until now it has remained undefeated H

highlights that any information regarding the higher tier monsters is critical and invaluable to the institution since this helps them make Plans to subjugate monsters more so by just acquiring information about a monster's vital points they can sell it for billions a playful Hune decides to pick his Target from the audience and asks yanha for her opinion regarding the creature's vital points yanha counters that its vital points haven't even been discovered and she's right but hun still thinks her opinion would be valued as that is what they do as a fun activity at the club as

his closing note the club President invites them to attend the Afterparty to share their opinions regarding the creatures vital points with the speech settled hajin comes to speak to Yona asking if she's interested in going in response he's just casually ignored bro tries again but this time sh shouts at her just to get her attention Jana stops to confirm that she will attend the Afterparty as it might help her out with some information she could use figuring out her intentions hajin Blurts out and asks if she's going to use that information to lead her future

assault team in her Guild this remark catches Yana's attention The Straits of essence Guild is a Powerhouse with its Rich history when the monsters first emerged from the gates 50 years ago Yan's Clan founded this Guild which is the reason it is one of the most influential guilds in the entire country hajin further impresses and shocks Yono with his sharp knowledge of her Guild's Dealings in recent times the vice Guild Master seems to be the highlight for the guild to the point that he's threatening to take over the position of the successor in line yanha

herself hajin questions if that's her main goal to attend the Afterparty and acquire information annoyed that he's still beating around the bush Yana inquires about his intentions hajin surprisingly offers her the deal of her life he's willing to throw in the mountain Tyrant Weakness his sudden offer swindles her and catches her off guard hajin thinks it's just necessary on his part since Yana has to prove to her Guild that she's really serious about her business and capable of leading the guild hajin explains that there's a small blue Mark hidden on the monster's heel and prioritizing

the attack there will help immobilize the creature momentarily he further adds that he's not so generous to hand this information for free as He's looking to obtain something from Yan's Guild a prized weapon from their essential Armory his weapon of interest is the Desert Eagle this man is pulling out all of the stops and going full American at this point Yan asks to check if he's got any proof for the Mountain tyrant's weakness since he should have some notes or documentation backing his research to this he smiles and bluntly confesses that he doesn't it's a

ridiculous thing to admit and say out of Nowhere without any research Yana's face goes blank because she realizes that he is probably bullshitting her and wasting her time she furiously storms off but hajin reminds her that she'll regret not using his advice if she thinks he's lying there's the obvious issue that she might not end up taking his words seriously but at the same time if yanha really believes him he'll have found himself a new ally what's really funny is that yanha goes outside and contacts One of her Guild's handlers she issues a message for

the assault team assigned to take down the mountain Tyrant stuttering in shame she tells her team to Target the blue Mark resting on the creature's heel as it might be its vital point this confirms that yanha used hain's advice on a whim even if he didn't have any proof hajin reflects that he may have put in a wise investment because yanha is destined to become the king of souls someday Kim hajin faces off his worst Villain to date a loan payment invoice that's right playtime's over because this dude just got hit with 300 million one

the terror in his eyes is enough to tell you everything this guy can't even fathom how much he owes he's hit the upper limit for student loans off the bat this makes hajin just what kind of miserable things chundong does in his life to require all of that money for himself well his problems have become even greater hajin inspects his bank Account's balance and realizes that he's left with 3 million to his name that's a fraction of the amount he owes to the institution for borrowing so much money at this rate bro literally has no

shot of going back to his real world instead he's going to be stuck here doing jobs until the end of his life just to pay off this humongous debt hajin scratches his head and realizes that he needs a job which is a relatable feeling for some of you watching this video I hope Now in this world there are two ways to actually make some money fast and big the author explains that the first method is through stocks bro is out here trying to become the next Warren Buffet but here's the thing though since the Inception

of towers and dungeons emerging all over the world right now they are often sought and conquered by the guilds composed of Heroes now shares of those guilds are often listed on the stock market allowing those shares to be Traded throughout hjin got the knowledge of all the guilds that are going to be listed once again he's the author so he knows this kind of stuff for no reason the real issue is that he's got to acquire some level of capital to invest in the stocks which means it's not going to be an immediate golf for

now the second option is the field which hjin believes is his only option for now field hunting is a unique way of ear money the field in question is known to Be a danger zone filled with monsters different from the typical Towers in Dungeon events the fields have a large variety of monsters which then you could hunt and earn a fortune from it's kind of like Quest hunting and then selling the corpses of the monsters you just hunted however the real obstacle in hajin case is really himself his personal stats are shitty barely better than

the average male so in his current state his confidence is wavering because He's unsure whether he could safely head into field hunting with his current skill set the author Au reflects that it would normally be quite wasteful to extinguish his story points just to upgrade the training pistol he has so he wants to find another way of upgrading his weapon or buffing his stats suddenly the door rings and a voice calls out for his name alerting him that he's received a package from Cadet yanha remembering her name hajin wonders what this could Mean especially since

yanha isn't HTE type to engage with him he opens the door to check things out anyway and what he finds is a small box the cadet opens the Box only to be shocked by what he sees and that's how the scene shifts to the wanju field zone of the gang onean Province Kim hajin has made his way to his first field hunting event by traveling through the portals Dawning a rather clean outfit hajin receives best wishes from the receptionist and Internalizes how Cadets are well respected no matter where they go he heads outside the portal

station and into the gangan province this part of the province is usually considered a low danger area and it quickly Rose to fame and tourism from many adventurers traveling from other countries earning them the province its newest moniker the international Metropolis one man shouts his request he's looking for a party member specializing in Magic so that he Could enter chiak Mountain there's many people just like this guy and hajin calmly breezes through them observing what they're doing he sees one of the employees confirming the defeat of three hobgoblins seeing this hajen realizes that it might

be profitable for him to sell the monster loots using an agency as it would make the process smoother he tries scouting for an agent around the area when suddenly one man calls him from behind this man seems to have Sensed hajin goal and asks if he wants to hunt Monsters the cadet confirms and learns that this nervous wreck is actually an agent he shows his business card to prove his identity hajin wasn't expecting him to be so anxious however suddenly the author reads the name of the agency on the business card it's led by Park

suak this guy is the big shot that will one day become suho's personal agent one day which means that while he may be nervous he certainly got the Skills to recruit the best of the best he will become the CEO of Korea's top leading agency eventually and it's strange enough that hajin is running into him so early in the story right now he's inexperienced and new which is why suyuk is acting the way he does hajin takes special Intrigue in their agency and forwards his hand he's ready to have himself recruited by their agency in

his mind hajin knows this is just the start of the story so many characters have yet To uncover their full potential and Bloom into the characters they're supposed to be he's basically investing in people right now by forming early connections a sudden thought comes to his mind since this guy is supposed to be suho's agent in the future hajin wonders if steing him is really the right thing to do in this situation a little while later as they're making their way to the monster Zone hajin asks if the agent is doing well on his own

we Then see that this dude is just exhausted like he's never done this much cardio in his life he's probably at the verge of having a heart attack which makes sense since Cadets are physically stronger than agents who usually use vehicles to track them as they approach the danger zone the agent spots a bunch of hobgoblins tracks hobgoblins aren't the hardest to beat and a pair of them can lump nearly 400,000 w one so it's a good offer according to the agent However that kind of money is still not enough hajin reflects that only one

of his Mana bullets costs a whopping 200,000 one which is way more expensive than he would like so he's looking forward to earning something more than just striking down a bunch of goblins fixing his sights on a Target hajin points to a boore monster just below the cliff and asks if hunting it would be fine the agent immediately becomes worried since this is a steel boar a Monster that is known to be immune to bullets as they're not strong or sharp enough to penetrate it skin hjin takes his words UNS seriously and happily goes ahead

without a care in the world in response the agent is literally left speechless since from his point of view this is like signing your own death wish hajin emphasizes that he carries a pretty solid gun on him bro is literally saying his strap can put down anyone more importantly there's a reason he's So confident hajin just received a new gift from Yona in exchange for the precious information he traded lo and behold this man pulls out the desert eagle in all of its Glory this beautifully leth gun is further assisted with a brand new feature

that he added by spending a few extra story points in the mix the agent is against provoking the boar and warns our boy to be careful but hajin is pretty daring and doesn't give a damn he locks in the Target and Releases a single explosive shot that one shot literally Cuts past the monster like a precise laser beam putting it down in an instant the sudden Kill Shot shocks the agent as he falls down in disbelief the system informs him about the special feature that hajin added every time he marks a kill with his weapon

its destructive power amplification is doubled do you know how insane that is this man is going to become Unstoppable with that ability Hajin is quite satisfied with what he pulled off with his new weapon seeing hajin exceptional weapon as well as his shooting skills the agent is left impressed the boy has little time to accept the compliment and merely targets his next kill before releasing a powerful shot the agent questions what he killed this time around hjin explains that he saw a Black Pelican from afar and decided to shoot it down it's amazing to the

agent that he can see This far with such accuracy to the point he could shoot things in the air Kim hajin confirms with confidence in his abilities playfully remarking that he possesses eagle eyes after all he tells the agent that he'll go down the cliff to take care of the monsters the agent runs after him in a hurry with a Black Pelican down as well as a steel boar they've acquired two heavy monsters back toback hajin asks if he's capable of safely transporting them Back suuk explains that it would be rather convenient to pay the

dispatch fee and call the logistics crew he even calculates a budget for the amount they'll receive after taxes hajin is simultaneously impressed by his Keen attention to detail which will soon become the agent's reason for National Fame he shakes hajin hand in confidence and the two of them hope to work together extending their partnership in the future the agent recalls hajin Mentioning that it was his first experience in field hunting from that he wants to know how the boy is going to spend his money once he receives it like a true businessman hjin expresses that

he's going to buy stocks completely shattering the man's expectations with his answer the fledgling Guild called packhorse master was originally founded by a demonic human or fiend in the original story they play a big role sitting at his laptop in his room hajin Reflects that the guild isn't the thing that should be worrying him it's rather the upcoming dungeon assault in the main story The packhorse Masters guild raid the devil's Lair dungeon right after this raid the stock prices of this Guild go crazy out of the water climbing up by nearly a th% that's why

he's happily investing his money in buying their stocks early so that he can reap the benefits of the boom later it's the easiest most efficient way to make money After all thanks to his foresight about the future spending 3 million one he completes the purchase and wonders if there's some other place he can find information regarding stocks hajin couldn't figure out much on the internet forums so he thinks a sketchy website like the Violet Haze might be of some use to him instead come to think of it hajin remembers something he remembers the masked Syndicate

who became responsible for playing the part of the Main villains in the second half of the story just like their name they're a criminal organization without much information about its members however since he's the author of the novel he knows their exact identities as well as their Hideout hajin figures that he might be the only one in the world to know about them while these guys are nasty criminals on their own they still despise fish humans like they're even worse hajin wonders if he can strengthen His connection with the leader of the masked Syndicate which

would somehow help him take down chai jinyun someday when he is resurrected as a demonic human figuring out his options hajin believes that there should be a vacancy in the organization meaning he has a chance to act as he's conducting his search the laptop screen suddenly shuts off surprising Kim hjin as he draws his face near in worry this is a terrible thing that's happened to him the laptop Was his only way of returning to his previous World losing it would set him back immensely fortunately it turned back on relieving him to some degree one

whole month has passed since he got into this world the laptop is receiving a sudden update bro was hit with the Microsoft update and nearly collapsed thinking he'd lose his work anyway let's cut to another scene at a restaurant a couple is sitting by themselves attracting the attention of the people It's the disinterested Jong hok and the delighted yanha jongok starts the talk expressing his annoyance he doesn't want to take part in polite and Noble meetings like this Jana pokes fun at him and thinks he's only gaining benefits from partaking in this meeting after all

he's talking to someone who is destined to lead Society one day she asks about his grades and learns that he's doing just okay yanha mocks him for not pursuing first place but the thing is Jung Haw believes his grades are just okay specifically because he's in second place bro is winning but has really high standards for himself interrupting their meet and greet comes an unexpected guest it's the dazzling naun Jong Hawk's crush this guy literally Springs up from his chair and breaks his personality just to gain her attention seeing him jump up like that with

so much interest turns yanha off since she really likes him jongok checks on nayun and asks if she's Doing all right nayun expresses that she was fine but while their bickering is going on Yona is getting irritated at being ignored all of sudden naun brings up Kim hajin name and catches yon's attention Yona turns to naun and inquires about him the girl explains that during the Demonic human incident at the national museum there were only three Cadets and one of them just so happened to be hajin the Demonic human got the better of them and

crushed both Suho and naun so much so they couldn't beat him until one man stepped in the fight out of the blue Kim hajin annihilated the fiend's hand with his shot and naun was there to Bear witness to The Impossible event she couldn't believe how he could pull that off with a training pistol which leads her to wondering about his real motives yanha is in deep thought when nayun decides to ask more about him she wants to know what yanha thinks of the guy especially Since they were teamed up together in their first training the

girl flinches to respond it turns out that she did a background check on Kim hajin because of her own suspicions she learned that he's just an orphan who joined the cube and owes a staggering debt of 300 million but apart from that basic information it's not like she knows anything out of the blue about him what's more she can't figure out how he came to know about the mountain tyrants vital point something That not even the top researchers or analysts knew at the time yanha remembers trying to ask him how he knew but he was

being a stubborn hard ass about it and refus to elaborate that's why she wanted to investigate him because Yana thinks he's going to become a useful asset to the guild one day yon expresses that she first thought of him as an unremarkable person she collects her thoughts and reasons that his attacks in the training round weren't Nearly strong enough to take down an entire fiend's arm just like that so based on that information she deduces that he must be hiding a secret Ace card that he keeps hidden from others naun Whispers an interesting suggestion that

Kim hajin might actually be a fish human himself this suggestion coming from her baffles both Yong haak and Yona in place even the purple-haired brat has a hard time believing a fiend would kill another fiend just like that na Yun Can't figure out what but she knows that there's something weird going around Kim hajin speaking of which hain's laptop is acting weird and is close to reaching 100% update suddenly he senses a warm sensation emerging from his wrist the pain becomes sharper and blood splotches begin appearing on his sleeve hajin panics as his wrist Burns

in painful Sensations the newest update is creating a stigma representing the Creator's Authority every time he Increases his influence and the story Point level evolves his Mark will evolve as well the magic contained within the mark could be deployed whenever necessary and after using it once it will replenish back in 24 hours hajin experiences headaches and pains throughout his body it's as if information is flooding inside his brain and he's got no way of resisting it back at the restaurant Yung Haw slams his palm on the table irritated to find naun Upset by hajin recent

actions during this time hajin can barely even stand and collapses to the ground jumping back to naun she can't help but remember those cruel words uttered by Kim hajin naun confirms that she really doesn't like him at all hajin rests unconscious his body gives up on him and we see the stigma Mark that he received from the latest update the laptop receives a sudden notification for him a new ability has been added to his his Observation and reading gift enhancing its effects let's go to the association Tower in Soul you see right after the incident

at the National Museum suho naun and hajin were involved in the fight and received certificates of commendation for their amazing deed their efforts were recognized for their service to the city Kim hjonk wrist still throbs in pain from what happened yesterday he's better now but the pain is noteworthy what's more he's yet to Figure out what its purpose is Kim hajin has the unfortunate Encounter of sitting next to naun who is madly pissed at him and tells him to shut the hell up even when he didn't say a damn word naun is so annoyed by

his mere existence that she can't handle him next to her hajin curiously asks if she's yet to have forgotten something he did then he reminds her that on that very day he also saved her damn life with his powers naun is a little frustrated to hear this Coming from him but it's not like he isn't speaking the truth she lashes out at him which invites suho to stop their banter he even offers naun to switch seats to help her out but this stubborn ass doesn't want to do that either after a long argument she manages

to switch seats with suho who sits next to hajin and prepares himself for a talk he thanks Kim hajin for saving their lives something our boy clearly wasn't expecting them to admit suho confirms That without his intervention they would have lost that fight so he became their Saving Grace and earned their gratitude but our boy is a chill guy he thinks they could have won anyway even if he didn't intervene see if hajin wasn't around to save their skin it's likely that suho would have pulled out his plot armor and evolved to a greater level

of power just to take down the threat that's the literal point of the protagonists in the story after all each Time they're faced with danger they always get back up and get stronger the scene switches to the auditorium where one of the most prominent heroes in the entire world is making his entrance Dawning long hair with a notable outfit filled with Dragons the man walks with a confident yet disinterested stride commenting on how useless his current task is this man is Yu shiuk a top tier hero considered ranked 37th in the association in his dominant

presence the Entire crowd is silent everyone can sense the strong Aura emanating from him this marks the beginning of the award ceremony where naun suho and our boy hajin are all awaiting the awardees are called to step on the stage these three Cadets are selected for their honorable act in service of the city the awards are granted by shihyuk one of the most notable heroes in the association all for the sake of blessing the cadets for their brilliant act in Exterminating a Demonic threat and saving the lives of the Innocents in the city first sh

huk addresses suho and hands him the reward he sees promise in suho's powers and comments that he's a talent worth recruiting suho is granted The Honorable certificate just when shiuk makes a crazy offer to him he wants the boy to forget the association totally and completely start working for him as a hunter for forsaken Plaines Guild he reminds suho that the role of a hero is Just plain and boring involving a ton of responsibility that shiuk himself doesn't value however The Confident boy declined his offer content with his choice to become a hero despite those

words shiuk feels like he just had the fun reaped out of him and moves on to his next Cadet in the presence of shiuk naun seems to be flustered because he seems to recognize the girl turns out this dude is actually her master well that's what naun would like to believe Because in truth shiuk doesn't really find her a student at all it's just that her father begged him to train her and that's how they got to this point his disappointing yet blunt truth kills her enthusiasm and makes our boy happy because this deserves to

be humbled a little and then comes the final Cadet shuk seems to really like hajin right off the bat because he doesn't recognize this plain looking kid at all the first question he asks is who He is because that's how insignificant and plain he seems hjin describes the situation by comparing it to indifference it's as if his presence is being completely ignored because shuk doesn't pay him any attention like the others the award ceremony concluded just like that as boring as that sounds Cadet nayun is the first student to be asked about her thoughts after

receiving her award well after the ceremony our boy is the happiest he has ever been he's just Received 15 whopping Millions as the prize money for the fiend extermination it's great because he's going to need everything he's got to cover that 300 million he sits by himself and decides on how he'll invest the rest of the money his interest is to buy more stocks from The Guild in the meantime he's dying to inspect the new features his laptop received right after the painful update upon opening his laptop he sees a message notifying him about the

updated Functions the first is the stigma Mark he received the second is the internet activation the last one is the to of Truth truth added to his observation and reading skill the stigma Mark is related to what happened to his left arm but there's almost little to no description provided on it it just tells him he can use magic whenever needed while it does say that hajin is having a difficult time figuring his way on activating his ability just as he's thinking about the Activation the mark forms a Crest signifying that it is about to

activate scared that he might blow some up here hajin wants to take these risks back at the dorm where no one else can see him it's going to be Troublesome if someone spotted him after all the second update is regarding internet activation hajin hovers his cursor over the button and clicks on it after a brief pause the screen redirects him to a bunch of different websites like law-abiding Spirit violent hay Jeremy sword and some others not only is he getting free access to normal websites he's also getting the restricted websites for free of all the

websites he sees the most important one is the Violet Haze which has everything he needs it's the most famous out of all the membership websites serving as a place to trade critical information weapons rewards requests and much more there's only a few Heroes that don't use This website because of that the government has decided to turn a blind eye to the trading of the underground there's a crazy access fee that is necessary to be paid just to access this website in our boy's case all he needs to do is spend 200 of his precious story

points he does the purchase to create his account for the time being and the moment he is thinking about connecting to a particular page someone calls for him it's the beautiful sua and the Vice Captain has called caught him she knows that hajin knows about her identity and she also remembers how he is the only person who disappeared from the ceremony a while ago she came here to especially hand him the card of their Guild the holy grace of God this isn't just any deal as even hajin believes earning this card means a big accomplishment

Su has a bunch of important questions to ask him so she sits down and wonders if he's willing to entertain her with them of Course hajin already suspects that she's interested in scouting him potentially so she sits down and asks if he's prepared to help her out with her questions normally sa looks the most kind when represented in the media but in reality she possesses a different side to her even the best of the best talents are kicked around when it comes to her she only cares about the best of the best and deals in

absolutes leaving behind anyone that is unnecessary and Unimportant that's the true personality of the vice Guild Master shunga forming a connection with her at this stage is going to be tantamount to hajin success in the future events to come so that's why before she even wants to speak to him bro just cuts her off and coldly states that he's got nothing knew to tell her after facing this rejection Su tries her best to clarify things she wants to tell him that she's the one expressing a key interest in him and Surely reminds him that she's

the vice Guild Master of Korea's top Guild hajin seems to acknowledge her position in ranking but he's dismissive of it because he knows she came here for personal reasons he knows for a fact that SAA is only coming here because she reviewed the footage of him using the light attribute shot it's not like she's genuinely interested in recruiting him right now instead she wants to satiate her curiosity with a bunch of curious Questions that's why this dude is playing hard to get to make himself seem like he's got everything going for him this way he's

going to Swindle her emotions and eventually receive her actual interest instead of the fickle curiosity she has right now this man pulls out a power move and states that he's going to take his leave at once shocking the heck out of shunga back to reviewing his stigma ability more information about its use is provided When his total story points exceed a threshold then the attention score will increase by one level and another stroke will be added to his mark it also makes makes it clear that hajin can activate its power whenever he desires and after

using it once it will be replenished in the time span of 24 hours to test his newest ability hajin concentrates his focus on forming a dagger via his magic all of a sudden the mark forms him a mythical blade out of nowhere the dagger Is actually a real deal as hajin moves it around and feels like it's ready to be used at once the thing about magic is that it's a stat influenced by one's innate talent and knowledge since hajin popped inside of this world without any explanations about his background he naturally assumed he wouldn't

be capable of handling magic at all but he's happy that he's found a way to use magic in his own way through the stigma Powers the last thing he wants to try out is The Tome of Truth which is supposed to enhance his pre-existing skills of observation and reading hajin thinks for a moment and decides to call out the ability's name the ability triggers his stigma once more materializing a book containing the truth the mystical energy of the book allows hajin the ability to answer any question as long as it is within the scope of

its magic now now how crazy is that even the author stops for a second to digest what he just read To check if it's bullshitting him or not he asks about his height turns out our boy is a short King standing at 174 CM or just over 5' 8 in in Freedom Units using the to of book consumes one story point for every question as a cost suddenly hajin Smartwatch beeps crazily king for a sudden emergency alert from the school there's a group message coming from someone who is asking for a student's location seeing this

red emergency notice our boy wonders what It's about he thinks it may have triggered the second major event that is supposed to occur in the main storyline the serial disappearances of the cadets at the cube this episode will involve The Disappearance of six Cadets from out of nowhere the culprit responsible for the ACT is meticulous in covering their tracks and doesn't leave a single trace behind the investigations are all useless causing the number to only increase as if they are all trapped in An endless game hajin remarks that this episode is important because the perpetrator's

final Target is supposed to be none other than Yu yanha self now even hajin knows that things would be Troublesome for him if the co-author interfered in this part of the story and edited in some changes since they could threaten to just remove one of the main characters like at the Museum incident our boy takes matters into his own hands to catch the criminal but thinks that Even that would be proven fruitless since his needless interference will disrupt the course of the story forever all he can do for the meantime is simply wait and observe

for the story to go down the scene switches to the training center the next day suho is replenishing himself with with water when one of his friends points to the scene just up ahead while hajin is attempting to work out and enhancing his physical strength a bunch of annoying bullies come to Tease him and disrupt his workout they call him a loser for being unable to lift a simple weight despite being enrolled at the prestigious institution they even suspect that he must have bribed his way inside suho tries to help him out since he has

a strong sense of justice but his friend grabs him and pulls him away suho can't believe that the class rep Yung H Han isn't doing anything to stop those guys but yungun explains that it's clear from the Delinquents that hajin somehow got on the bad side of Jong Haw which is why any involvement will label suho a Target as well there's also a possibility that these guys are faking to test his reaction suho can't believe what he's hearing but yungan thinks that a dude who shattered the Demonic human's arm couldn't be afraid of dealing with

a bunch of amateurs all by himself he's of the opinion that hajin deliberately hides his true strength but this theory Is proven ridiculous pretty quickly because our boy cannot for the life of him lift that barbell he's just struggling out here before giving up even the losers think that he's just pathetic Yan is starting to believe that luck may have been on his side this fake ass switched sides so quickly anyway suho ignores him and rushes to save hajin anyway the rest of the cadets quickly realize that a fight is about to break out and

naun is eavesdropping too Once again their instructor comes out roaring like an angry dad he's pissed that they're making a mockery out of their training session the instructor tells the students to gather around for their scores for the quiz to be revealed the sheet will be put on the wall so everyone can view the results in groups the cadets come around checking the board and realize that a ton of them were annihilated in the quiz in that very same quiz only one Student's name Is at the top it's none other than Kim hajin the same

annoying who couldn't even lift a simple barbell earlier Rachel and Jong Haw are respectively second and third I mean hajin isn't surprised by this outcome since he practically knows about everything in the story he authored himself seeing his result a girl's Raper drops on the ground this is Rachel and she's utterly speechless by what she sees she's the British princess who Ranked third in the admissions there's only one notable detail about this girl's character and that is the fact that she never places second in any given written test no matter what so the fact that

she's just scored second has winded her she stares at him as if she's seen a ghost of some kind hajin is stunned too not knowing what to say let's explore what happened back when Rachel first got accepted into the cube with her brilliant result her attendants Were all worried for her that she might be taking part and standing next to one of the world's best hero candidates very soon what's more she'll have no one to relate to as everyone in her class would be Korean Rachel was okay with that never feeling a sense of anxiety

and simply wanted to live up to the expectations of others for the sake of the royal family but today she has felt a sense of dread defeat and disappointment unlike any other she Feels like she has failed her countrymen with her performance the teacher reviews hajin notes in class specifically pointing out the boy's Brilliance in writing a new take on phenomenological analysis he's even given a special mention to be followed as an academic weapon now Rachel knows that that the subject of phenomenology isn't just any easy subject to master she doesn't even think it's possible

for her to close their gap before midterms come around This aloof and Lost Boy Kim hajin is finessing her when he doesn't even pay any attention to his lectures burning with inspiration and an aching desire to know how he studies Rachel takes a wider interest in him at the information office our boy is digging up a bunch of his queries he's finally acquired the T of Truth to answer all his problems so it should help him out thanks to this new shiny ability he can learn about any in this world or whatever gaps of Knowledge

he has at the cost of spending just a bunch of his story points especially since he has nothing going for him right now and wouldn't really make a profit hajin is hoping for things to get better eventually he goes to complete agent registration and from here he wants to use some of his precious story points to take care of the rest let's talk about the second major event that's going to happen in the story right after it happens the Institution's position as a place of security and Authority is put under Fire by the people it

is no longer considered a safe Zone the thing is is even with his current Powers hajin believes he's too weak to solo a fiend all by himself however he has been getting a ton of story points after Jong Haw got annoyed with him and sent his little goons that's turning into his benefit and working things out for the guy hajin wants to spend some of the points to Ensure his survival for the things to come in the future the first area of interest is increasing his weapon Buffs since he has the Desert Eagle handgun with

him he wants to add a convertible function to the gun allowing it to become a sniper rifle now I don't know about you but a hand handgun transforming into a sniper rifle just sounds cool as hudin wonders if he's doing a little Overkill with this feature but he still ultimately makes The decision by spending two 50 story points for the added feature right that moment his gun warps and takes the form of a beautiful gold sniper rifle reflecting its changes even hajin is impressed by the skill but he thinks it's too flashy for a gun

and will draw a lot of attention so he reverts it back to its handgun state for now next his focus is to create a technique that's going to help him out he has three slots to work things out what differentiates The Supernatural and Magic based Powers called abilities from techniques is that they're considered honed physical skills that are acquired instead of given arguably the most important skill for arranged weapon users survival to prioritize any successful elimination is positioning themselves in top Advantage so right now the technique hajin is hoping to acquire is related to getting

him the ideal position for him to avoid any mishaps in the future he types away At his laptop auditing the E techniques skills at last the techniques properties are there for him to use it's a skill he decided to call parkour and it helps with helping him become an agile monster throughout the field this will ensure that he keeps moving and doesn't stay stuck in one place to expose his position for this effect 350 points have been consumed but strangely our boy doesn't seem to feel anything different from his body he's at least confident That

he scored some changes although he doesn't feel them suddenly his Smartwatch receives a notification it's a group message and this time people are looking for Sunan the girl who has become the second victim of the perpetrator from within the institution hudin explains that the students who disappeared before yanha were actually murdered by the culprit In Cold Blood this means the moment they disappear they're as good as gone since he's the Author he knows about this dangerous mysterious villain acting from behind the scenes he also knows the persons that will be involved in The Disappearance faced

with this morally gray situation hajin wonders if he should really be turning a blind eye to what's happening right now for the sake of the story and his personal benefit that's an interesting question though tell me what you guys would have done in the comments below would you be Pragmatic or ethical these kinds of thoughts are weighing heavy on the author who is trapped in a tough situation with no right answers the scene shifts to the outdoor training ground under the cubes premises the instructor leads the announcement for each Cadet and explains that they're going

to be part of a special practical training session the cave they see just up ahead is actually called an artificial dungeon and it was created Thanks to the magical wonders of magic Tech this place is inhabited by illusions of the real monsters so away it's the best form of training possible to train the cadetes to fight against real monsters in the future that's why the cadetes will be participating in a mock dungon assault Mission today however the instructor intently reminds them that they shouldn't take the exercise lightly just because it's training or it may come

at a cost to Them the thing about the artificial dungeon is that it's immense in size which is why the two groups called veritus and cultural will work together in order to effectively dismantle it one team from each unit will merge to form an assault team to tackle the dungeon the instructor tells them to make their own teams from here on out there's countless chatter of the students trying to link up and communicate with each other so they could form teams among Them is also Team 8 consisting of our boy hajin and the rest of

his allies like Yona huki and hosung from the cultural unit they have Jaden Jing Yu sujung and jinsha making it a team consisting of eight Cadets total in the artificial dungeon there are many terrifying traps waiting for them some of these traps were deliberately planted by the fiends which is at least hajen suspects to tack the possibility of dealing with demonic humans he's already Prepared a bunch of Special bullets for them beforehand but even at this level hajin is confident in himself and wonders if he's going to survive this practical training event suddenly the system

begins roaring out a warning informing him about the discrepancy caused in the story this is troublesome for the author especially since he won't know what those changes are the worst part is three aspects of the story have been altered in one event so it's Definitely cautioning hajin who doesn't know what's going on or who's causing such alterations to occur as the teams are gathering up hjin biggest worry is that he doesn't know about the changes while he's completely lost in thought Kim suho's teammate Yuna from the culture unit mocks him for being a dumbass and

not paying attention to the instructor the system informs him about yuna's temper rising at the same time yanha gets to meet Jaden from the Cultural team but she doesn't share the dude's enthusiasm and has a dead look on her face the system informs that Jaden's growth potential has also increased based on this interaction then lastly naun interacts with a specific Cadet that she's seen around at The Hunting Club the cadet introduces himself as Sven Dawning a beautiful pair of blue eyes and a charming smile he's paired up with her but for some reason his mental

breakdown is only worsening which also Means he is highly susceptible to become a demon puppet during the raid hajin is just baffled listening to these story changes popping up from out of nowhere and he is deeply troubled since they're going to impact the story to a significant amount the author fixates his attention on the two characters that he has to keep a sharp eye on the first of them is Jaden from Team 8 since he's supposed to be a delinquent type character with a personality of a bully While he possesses the qualities of a fine

Cadet what's really bothering hajen are the growth potential points he's receiving from out of nowhere Jaden politely introduces the rest of his team those being Jing Yu sujun and jincha from yanha side she does the same but she tends to misremember our boy's name causing him annoyance it's funny because I think she called him Lee hajin just to with him back to his thoughts hajin focuses on what he should do regarding His second topic of Interest Sven this dude is actually on a government scholarship since he's considered an elite candidate hero from Germany there's only

one detail to note about this guy and it's the fact that he's got the hots for naun is it me or does everybody just like naun someone needs to check if she made a contract with the demon of Enchantment anyway like the rest of the international students inside the institution Sven came with The purpose of attaining glory and reaching the very Heights of success but that remains to be an unfulfilled dream for him especially when talents like nayun suho and even Yona are in the picture as the main characters seeing their monstrous and Brilliant abilities

Sven became lost and mentally torn he had never felt true inferiority and humbling defeat before coming to the institution his insecurities got the better of him which is why in his mad Pursuit for power Sven sells his soul in exchange for ultimate strength well those are the details the author wrote that he's confident about the real problem is that his transformation is going to happen during the raid it has moved forward in the timeline and while he's hoping it doesn't have much of an impact hjin is still worried his thoughts are crushed by Jaden's sudden

greeting who squeezes his shoulder and reminds him not to get lost in his Thoughts hjin snaps away his arm to push him off Jaden is too quick to denote him as a scumbag and thinks the rumors about him must all be true hearing those words hajin internalizes that his reputation is at an all-time low right now a particular rumor has taken effect in the orbus unit causing many people to set their sights on him the rumors are that he's using his status as a Cadet to intim ate other people but it's one of those rumors

that are manufactured from Out of nowhere to talk about a person it's pretty clear who made the rumors though since hajin knows it's definitely related to Jong Haw and his Lackey seeing his so-called friends hajin is a little upset that hazuki and hosang aren't even stepping in to help him out here despite being a team anyway the order of the teams is decided and they'll start entering from Team One in the meanwhile Jaden tries to chat up yanha in any attempts of rising her he Goes on talking on and on about how their teams are

a mix-up of being overpowered right now they even talk hajin for being a dead weight which is just funny it's like all the haters gathered in one team and their victim is poor hajin at last it's time for Team 8 to enter the dungeon they pull up inside seeing the artificial cave in all its Glory they walk together and explore the Dungeon with Jaden being the most confident ahead suddenly they find a Place with many paths a curious yanha wonders which path will be the most effective to take Jaden explains that they always have Jing

Yu as a ranged weapons user to rely on hajin breaks his silence and suggests exploring route number six out of the blue his sudden Interruption annoys Jaden a lot but strangely Yona seems to trust his gut and actually accepts his suggestion her sudden approval surprises hajin and while she calls him useless in front of The group she can't help but admit that he's got a good pair of eyes on him hajin is a little upset that she has to drag his name through the mud just to give him a compliment he's okay with it as

long as they can meet naun down the same rout the thing about Sven is that he might really end up making a PCT with the demon lurking in inside the cave that's why the burden will fall on naun and she's going to have a tough time dealing with him alone if she falls Right now the rest of the story will be in shambles since her character is crucial to forwarding the plot she's an invaluable piece that can't be lost they enter path six but Jaden is still a jealous who calls hajin an attention seeker our

boy doesn't care about his insults and simply chooses to focus on the monsters ahead the rest of the cadets can't see a thing in the dark but haene seems to be fine with spotting a salamander in the near distance he Also thinks thinks it might be some kind of dungeon switch which could reveal some properties about the dungeon worried Jing Yu thinks he should try shooting a light arrow and check things out for them with Yan's approval he prepares a shot and releases it carving a path of light just ahead to everyone's shock there is

indeed a salamander monster up ahead Jaden is shocked while yanha alerts everyone to get into battle position to strike this down hajin On the other hand is anticipating something before making his move Jana brings out her signature whip weapon and takes on the battle head on she unleashes her strong whip aimed at the Beast interrupting it charging an attack from its mouth I'm not going to lie this dude looks like a Pokémon with its mouth restricted hazuki and the other melee Fighters pounce in to crush the monster with their powerful attacks since it's only a

hologram they defeat it rather Easily suffering little to no consequences from the fight y hears the rumbling sound and realizes that the dungeon is transforming after the monster's defeat the electric charge coming from her whip is observed by hajin who is impressed that she has already a wakened her Eve of Awakening power just as they're about to move hajin trips on a pebble and crashes on top of yunha from behind at the same time a sharp projectile swiftly misses Them by the mark which would have hit if he didn't stumble just now both of them

hit the ground in a hard crash hajin face is sweating bullets because he knows he's dead now Jana tries to ignore his act and tries to ignore him for a moment but then she gets fired up and wants to beat him up as she's preparing to beat him down the rest of their teammates point to the arrow that nearly killed them just now it's during this moment that hajin realizes that When they stumbled just now they actually avoided a lethal poison arrow the scene cuts to Sven who has been injured by one of such arrows

and begs naun to leave him behind carrying his heavy ass weight naun shouts at him to shut up if he can't run she still can't believe what happened earlier an arrow from out of nowhere came flying and hit Sven from behind she couldn't believe that it was a part of their training so she made a run for it especially since This is an artificial dungeon where situations like these aren't supposed to happen now let's explore the giant ass demon she's trying to escape from this lava Golem is a mini Godzilla that's chasing after naun no

wonder she's pissed at Sven for yapping while being injured the artificial cave has its training underway for the cadets they're busy fighting the Fire Salamanders shooting beams from their mouths hajin team is defending against Them pretty well especially the cultural unit they defend and Counterattack with long-ranged weapons the same goes for hajin and yanha who are swiftly cleaning up the mess with ease Jaden is having fun slicing down on the monsters on his own this back-to-back fight seems to be an easy victory for Our Heroes they haven't faced a really difficult monster so far since

they're nothing more than fodder apart from the poisonous arrow they don't think they have encountered Any traps to watch out for so they're fine with pushing in and exploring deeper but something about the poisonous arrow does not sit right with the author he even received a notification about it from the system he can't believe that these idiots still think the arrow is just a part of training and not an actual threat hajin is riddled with so many thoughts when suddenly a strong creeping presence from behind terrifies him a fully charged salamander is Preparing its devastating

fire beam ready to launch at any moment hajin is utterly shocked that one of the salamanders survived and wasn't dead after they made sure it was down the enormous fire blast is released in their path with Yona and the others standing defenseless this one attack could annihilate all of them this is why hajin intervenes in the battle with his stigma magic releasing his one time use ability to cast a water barrier at once the Stigma magic releases the water barrier protecting them from the beams wrath the beam is powerful but eventually it fades against the

defensive properties of the water barrier engulfing their team finishing up its attack the salamander crashes as it was its final Resort but what hajin pulled off just now has shocked the eyeballs of his teammates huki and hosung just don't know what they saw just now they also couldn't believe that the attack from the Salamander is so powerful and a part of training it's the real flame breath at full strength and while it didn't fully connect with the heroes it was dangerous Jaden is the only one enraged from the incident and immediately grapples hajin for hiding

his water attribute Powers especially since they needed them a while ago hajin tries to play at calm and explains that he's just using an effect of a magic item but Jaden isn't going to buy his excuse yanha pulls in To break them off what's troubling them is the fact that they faced a real monster in an artificial dungeon yanha reasons that the place is supposed to mimic a traditional or normal dungeon which means it's likely that one of the salamanders evolved in some way or something else caused it to pop up she doesn't want to

focus on the details of that for now because she's confident they'll receive points for taking out a real monster later Yona leads the group And acts like she doesn't really care about what happened but in her thoughts she is much too confident that hajin is bullshitting about the magic item excuse the fact that he couldn't afford the Desert Eagle is proof enough that he couldn't get his hands on a magic item out of nowhere what's more is that it's specifically a water attribute magic and while Jong haak and suho seem like candidates to pull that

kind of off a guy like hajin is just out of the Question y connects the weird coinci es involving him so far such as the mountain tyrant's vital point and the fact that he's capable of using magic she can't figure out why he's going through so much to hide his powers which reminds her of nun's initial assumption that he's probably a fish human because of her puzzled thoughts and her inability to trust hajin Yona has kept a close eye on him let's run it back to our girl naun and see how she's facing Her monster

the Maga megalith is a real threat an intermediate grade monster that seems Unstoppable they think it's a dungeon boss and even wonder if it's possible to deal with such a monstrosity especially with a normal team their plan is to join forces with the other teams and lead a joint attack there's the concern that sven's condition is fragile too naun is stumped about the poisonous arrow darting from out of nowhere she's starting to believe the dungeon is way Too challenging for a Cadet level's training sven's condition is shown to be worse than what everyone believes he

feels like the burden of the group for letting everyone down and with this his mental condition worsens he has Troublesome thoughts and comes to question his abilities it it tortures him from the inside until one voice decides to take advantage of his crippled State The Voice asks if he's seeking strength especially since he Suffered so much throughout this time this voice promises to give him exactly what he wants by offering him the strength of his dreams in exchange this demonic voice requests that he surrender everything else faced with this offer and in his pitiful State

Sven gleefully accepts the offer without thinking about anything else just as he accepts the offer the Demonic fiend captures his soul in its trap causing him whirling pain he shouts in agony as his body Succumbs to pain naun rushes to him and requests her partymates attention but all of his screaming has actually drawn their ugly old Goliath to this location he stares at them for a casual hello before obliterating the place with its lava the monster sways its giant fist to crush the structures the cadets are probably performing athletic level Sprints here because they're so

afraid a damn fist will crush them if they're not fast enough the monster slams the place Down sending some of the cadets flying in place they're stuck with practically no way out even naun has hit a hard wall just carrying Sven and can't see a way out before she can even recover her breath the horrifying creature pops up with its scary eyes now that's a nightmare right there no one would want to be naun right now the girl can't believe what they're facing and is now convinced that this isn't a dummy faced against its wrath

naun is terrified to Admit that they might just die in a place like this an artificial dungeon the monster prepares to unleash its attack when one Mana bullet comes flying from out of nowhere striking the monster down and penet ating the top of its head nun turns her attention to the shooter who attacked the monster from afar it's none other than our boy hajin who has saved her ass a second time if she's still ungrateful after this I swear he better leave her to die let's go back a Few minutes and see what happened between

Yonk team they ended up hitting a massive wall annoying Jaden because this path was supposed to lead them to the dungeon's boss monster hajin confirms that they're still at the right place in fact they've never been closer but he himself didn't anticipate the wall just ahead in instead of fixating on the details of that hajin claimed that the monster is lurking right behind he wanted the group to try and break the Wall for him Jaden was pissed that he's the one taking charge of the operations and running the show anyway he still attacks with the

full force of his sword the result poor guy experiences a sharp shock because the wall has been infused with strong defensive capabilities so even an attack infused with magic is fruitless against it huki notices something and points to the Gap just above the wall hajin believes they could use the Gap to cross over the place but Jaden thinks it's a ridiculous idea and that he's crazy for thinking he could make it out of a 10- meter climb realizing that Jaden's a fool who probably can't do what he's about to pull off hajin decides to go

first he uses his parkour technique strengthening his grip and making him so agile that he turns and tosses his way up lunging like an expert until he reaches the top from there he avoids the group and just dashes away right then the entire group Hears a sudden Boom coming from the other side the dungeon is once again experiencing a sudden unexpected change Jaden doesn't know what's going on but what they don't know is that the giant lava Golem has been wreaking havoc inside hudin comes to rescue naun he's pleasantly surprised that the stun properties of

his shot just wore off and didn't last very long against this creature of bulldozing size he calls for naun to run away while she still can Instead of sitting idle things get worse for our boy since the Towering monster just so happens to have found its newest Target bro's face turns pale as he begs naun to save him now instead of running her ass away instantly the group assumes battle formation and Strikes the lava Golem from many angles but despite their heavy blows none of the hits work against this Beast as it stands impenetrable as

ever seeing them come to their rescue naun is glad and decides to Get down to business as she readies a powerful arrow shot she wants them to keep the monster distracted while she prepares her shot a few more moments pass and eventually Sven shows up from out of nowhere with his surprise entrance he keeps the monster busy and distracted allowing nun to wind up more of her strength remembering the outcome against the Demonic human from last last time she swears that this time things will turn out differently and then naun Releases her obliterating Arrow which

utterly annihilates the monster's face upon impact the Golem's corpse hits the ground as lava melts out of its head the cadets can't believe that they were able to defeat such a ferocious monster with their combined strengths some of them are hoping they're getting rewarded with a good amount of points naon and Sven also catch up with them the rest of them are shocked by nun's sudden attack and she calls it her finishing move hajin is Disinterested about the rest and fixates his attention on Sven who has yet to transform into a fiend at this level

it's an alteration from the original story which is certain to cause future changes the transformation will occur no matter what especially since he has made a PCT with the demon in this cave now it's going to be tough because there's no telling when he'll act up against the group and make the story chaotic nun's attention drifts away at the boy in the Distance who is catching his breath she takes a moment to forget about her anger towards him and comes to talk with him in private knowing that she owes him a bit naun tries to

utter the word thank you feeling embarrassed about saying them too earning her acceptance is actually a radiant experience for our boy who can't wonder what the just happened he spaces out and questions what she said causing her annoyance as she confirms that she won't say it again For him what hajin can't believe is that she actually went ahead and thanked him like this her entire life has been riddled with nothing but tragedy the very first tragedy trailing her life occured when she turned six it was tough for the poor girl to lose her mother at

the hands of a fiend which strengthened her resolve to one day become a hero normally kids were taught to have fun and laugh but naun was different she was filled with anger and abused her body to Its utmost limits from a young age she was shut off and couldn't build meaningful connections because that would risk her being vulnerable and being open to others about her past as a consequence only a handful of people have earned her gratitude and there's barely any who can confidently call her a friend that's why this moment is so special to

hajin because the character he wrote to only say sorry finally said something completely contradicting Herself self he knew it better than anyone else as the author of the novel naun goes on a tangent and questions why he's letting Jung Hawk's goons annoy him when he's so strong and capable in real situations after all just one shot from his gun was able to stun the monster in place there's just no way the goons are a match for a guy like him so she doesn't get his intentions hajin expresses that he doesn't really have a way to

beat them truly it's strange to Naun who has seen him beat a monster with his weapon the boy demonstrates his new gun the desert eagle and explains that it's just a custommade craft which helps take care of things for him all in all he's trying to avoid looking like a strong guy naun goes crazy hearing him admit to a crime so openly modified weapons are actually illegal in the institution and would cause an immediate suspension hajin confirms that it's the only reason he uses the weapon when he Truly needs it thankfully he's found a way

to hide this gun inside the stigma Mark allowing him to keep stronger weapons tucked inside his inventory without getting suspended every time however naun is still not buying his excuse seeing how strong he is that's when she curiously questions if he possesses some kind of gift related to his firearm skills hjin doesn't give her a proper response but she's pretty content and leaves she isn't going to Rat him out for using the gun but recommends he stop using it before leaving she stops to touch another topic the same topic that spiraled her hatred towards him

hajin grows silent for a moment and still refuses to apologize or clarify he doesn't want to apologize and earn her a connection since she will forgive him which is really bad for what's going to happen in the future bro is literally plotting to assassinate her older brother of course he's not going To her over mentally by befriending her right now his Target is locked in to kill Chay Jin Yun in the Future No Matter What when naun returns to her group they all are dying to know if she's somehow friends with the guy she declines

quickly but Sven seems to have caught on something with his creepy look a sudden announcement is made to the cadets and the dungeon training exercise is suspended at once they want all of them to exit the dungeon right away I Mean they caught on pretty late they'd probably be in corpses if not for hjin now there's a bunch of different problems that came up during the assault exercise the first is the fact that all surveillance cameras were shut down right after the exercise began then real monsters instead of artificial ones found their way and spawned

in place of the dummies finally the staff didn't act until the last second when things went wrong it was a serious incident but Involved no casualties which is why the cube decided to launch an internal investigation instead of using the help of authorities hajin explains that the fish humans secretly lurking in the Cub's executive staff probably succeeded in suppressing the matter at hand he knows that the investigation won't happen until episode 2 is fully concluded right now what's truly troubling him is the objective of the co-author and his intentions with Sven There's one side effect

of making a PCT with a demon it causes a person emotional distress as well as an obsession the worst possibility that comes to hajin mind is Sven going ballistic and killing nayun he wants to make sure that that future doesn't come to pass that's why he's secretly tracking both of their movements hajin clicks on his messenger app apologizes for his immoral ways to get the results he wants the system connects him to Nun's Messenger account there he sees a bunch of chats like with suho Sven and Yung Hawk his only topic of interest is Sven

himself who is texting her out to the hunting club's event this week in the original story this same event is the breakout of sven's erupted State just to make sure nothing happens hajin intends to Trail them and do whatever it takes to neutralize the situation he's also increased his stats now so he thinks it's finally time to go hunting For the Garrison dungeon in class hajin receives a sudden message from his Smartwatch he doesn't know why suho is calling him out of nowhere suho personally asks if our boy is free on Friday because he's been

meaning to ask something let's talk about the gisan it's a mountain in the gangwondo province known for its spiritual effects it's often called a training Haven by the martial artists who gather from all over the country just to train there but It's not just them the Garrison is visited by many vagabonds who love touring the mountains for buried Treasures instead of risking lives to fight monsters well one of these vagabonds is the ginang Digger Kim yunjun and he's going to be accompanying our boy for this event hajin isn't the least bit excited or touched by

yun's enthusiasm Yun jun's confident that he will never be able to find gin sang with how he's doing but Hajin corrects him stating that his purpose isn't gin sing but something else there's lots of blabbering that really crosses odds with our boy and he simply chooses to ignore him yunjun arrogantly assumes that this kid is inexperienced and he's kind of right because hajin trips and falls so many times just on his way but right then he finds the dazzling ginang he can't believe his eyes bro ends up munching on the 7-year-old ginang route thanks to

The modification function it will allow him to double his stats by two points for a shortened duration what's so damn crazy about this specific gin sing is that if he sold it he could have made 700 million from it it still kills me why he didn't use it to pay off his debt though hudin stumbles and finds himself troubled to travel up so far he thinks it's reasonable that the dungeon he's looking for hasn't been discovered yet in the Garrison Beyond its Glory lies The place he's looking for the undead dungeon the cave of Terror

that the author now stands before the boss of the dungeon is called the death knight and he's a really tough Upper Intermediate grade monster the ginang buffed his stats quite a bit but this dude is still going to destroy hajin from his expectations as he steps inside hajin expresses that he doesn't care about that because he's got different goals in mind just then a scary hand emerges from The underground then myriads of the undead monsters come creeping out to greet our boy at the entrance of the dungeon prepared to fight them all off hajin prepares

his stigma magic and reflects that his true intentions aren't to take down the boss monster today the real goal is to access the dungeon's hidden stage suddenly all of the skeletal monsters Rush forth to attack the seemingly defenseless boy but they'll regret what's about to happen to Them bro pulls out his strap and literally annihilates one of the undead monsters at Point Blank Range talk about a stylish kill shot the same happens to the rest of the undead monsters who are easily taken down by every shot hajin activates his Eagle Eye Precision ability to Trail

the trajectory of his shots he then uses his quick mobile agility to leap over the monsters only to attack them from above and score more kills after killing enough of them hajin Stops shooting and realizes that he's done defeating them all however the number of these Undead monsters is bound to increase as he approaches the hidden stage this is a clear sign that he's headed towards the evangel's location now this Evangel person is actually a witch who is supposed to act as the boss of the Garrison dungeon's hidden stage This Witch actually plays a role

in the future she's going to construct the castle of Evangel the most terrifying Undead Fortress in the history of mankind she will make an abandoned School its host and reek Havoc she's going to be really Troublesome to deal with when she becomes mature and more powerful which is why our boy is interested in taking her out while he still can after defeating her he's hoping to acquire two drop items as a reward the first item is the upgradable equipment called The Ether and the second one is the seed of Evangel now in The original novel

both items were responsible for helping the fiend toor to become so powerful that he became the executive force of evil that means if hajin is looking to become strong at an even faster rate the best thing to his Advantage is The Ether he approaches the door of the Hidden stage of the dungeon where only Darkness awaits the boy activating his Precision Eagle Eye he's able to peer far into the cave without worrying about any monsters there he Sees a shiny dead tree with crystals emerging from it his Target is the young witch who has yet

to mature and is very vulnerable at her current state since it's incredibly tricky to to beat a fully mature witch his only chance to defeat her is now when she's physically incapable and weaker than her mature self the little witch is fiddling with her spell and playing around the sight is too innocent for our boy hajin who has literally come here with the purpose Of preventing the Doom that she will one day unleash in the future his emotions are trying to get the better of him as the author he takes full responsibility and musters the

spirit to kill her after all even the future executive of evil toor did the same as he approaches her hajin reasons that the little witch is nothing more than a bit of his own creation when it all comes down to it he is the reason she exists and he is the reason she will die a normal witch in Her spirit form can't be taken out with bullets even if they're infused with Mana so in this particular situation hajin activates the power of His stigma magic and creates a magical spear imbued with light attribute magic this

should be enough to kill the witch in one strike he's also really impressed by the Aged ginang effects since they boosted his stats by a lot believe it or not this man Chucks the damn spear full force at the baby witch annihilating her Spiritual form with a clean head shot I wasn't expecting him to be so brutal but damn anyway hajin was expecting his previous attack to finish her off completely but for some reason she's way stronger than she looks even while immature she managed to survive the brutal attack the twitch recovers her lost spiritual

body with what's left of her powers the dungeon begins shaking in a massive earthquake as the baby witch finally becomes unable to sustain her Form and explodes in a wave of dust before Haj Jin's eyes at last the two items he was looking for have both dropped the seed of Evangel contains the soul of the witch allowing Evangel to resurrect once the germination process is complete The Ether on the other hand allows the owner to reinforce their weapon and upgrade their powers having acquired The Ether item it Buffs all of hajin stats by 6 the

system also informs him that this item cannot be further Traded back at his dorm hajin is glad to experience the effects of the item his mission ended up a success the effects of ether will only implify his skills even more once he levels up with all of the skills he's acquired so far he thinks he's somewhat capable of cube Cadet at his current level not to mention he's also gained nearly 50 story points as well as experienced the effects of the ginang arguably the best part of his raid is the seed of Evangel That he

acquired which can be used to resurrect the witch at any time through germination The Witch of Despair title may make her seem like a villain but in reality if hajin plays his cards right he could help develop Evangel into a strong Ally now the growing part of the isn't so difficult according to the author it only sounds complicated but all it needs is a bunch of blood to develop overtime the personality of the witch is determined by the blood of the Person who is providing it which is why it's best for hajin to select an

ideal candidate bro is already thinking about asking suho and Rachel so the witch turns out to be a little nice to him at the same time he just can't fathom asking from either Yona or naun since they'll cause a scene and spoil the witch's personality a great bit it's a red flag that he's going to avoid the real question is how's he going to acquire the blood hajin puts it off for Later and thinks he should take some rest since tomorrow is the main event that's going to exhaust much of his strength the hunting club

where Sven will likely cause a scene against naun is right around the corner after all the following day at the Baka Mineral Springs a bunch of cube Cadets are delighted to become a part of their first outing orientation one girl is giving a speech addressing the cadets and decides to repeat the club Activities a final time hajin is a part of this group paying close attention the girl explains that the leonitis hunting club will conduct its usual hunting but she also reminds them not to treat this as a hobby it's a serious responsibility as it

works to help the public and the citizens of the province while this is going about hajin is sweating bullets he doesn't know what's going to take place and how things are going to change directions all he knows is a simple Description of what happened in the original novel sven's outlash against nayun rendered her severely injured while he himself was killed in battle hajin wrote the story this way to allow suho to become closer to nayun and care for her the really interesting part is that while people are severely focused on nayun as the fiend's target

yon becomes the victim while defenseless hajin is extremely cautious and even terrified of the outcome since it is Much different from the original story arc he created for sven's character while he possesses some bits of demonic power at his current level he's yet to manifest into a full transformational state hajin is hoping that it would be ideal for Sven to throw a tantrum here so that he has the best chances of taking him down with other people while he's fixated on Sven naun is bothered by our boy consistent stares she doesn't get why he's looking

at her like that Not knowing that he's keeping an eye for sven's every move naun is also starting to feel afraid that this guy might secretly have a crush on her which is just funny Sven is also wary of him and tells her to be careful but naun takes his warning as a joke since he doesn't pose any threat to her Sven clarifies that he's talking about the disappearances that have been going on as of recent implying that our boy hajin might be related however nayun has Developed some form of trust in him and believes

that he's an innocent guy who isn't the type to act like that the hunting begins as Sven and naun go on ahead with hajin trailing and keeping an eye on them for any incidents sometime passes and they're off in the forest where an innocent deer is annihilated by a brutal demon this brutal demon is none other than the bastard Sven who is testing out his newly acquired demonic Powers Sven releases the animal when he Hears nun's voice calling for him she's hunted an animal down herself but what really amazes her is the fact that this

dude hunted down way more than her in such Swift motion is standing there like an innocent freak while she doesn't know what's going on Sven claims victory for the hunting Mission and as part of their deal he could ask anything from her but when it comes the time to say His Wish bro fumbles in his feelings and tries to ask her out while this is happening our Boy hajin is keeping a sharp eye on them both after all he knows this could prove to be problematic the demon 7 made a pacta with is called the

carnal of desire and as such a person that becomes a fiend as its puppet is riddled with their own desires that's why Sven is incapable of restraint right now anyway Sven becomes the big boy and lets out his words he wants naun to be his girlfriend hearing those words the girl pauses momentarily not knowing what to Say her puzzled and startled reaction makes him wonder if she's trying to refuse nun confirms that she doesn't know how to feel about dating someone she's barely known for a while her cold words really sting him hajin thinks it

should be enough of a trigger to activate sven's Obsession causing him to lash out and reveal his fish nature naon further clarifies that she's into guys that are more powerful than her well if her previous words didn't hit him this Sure will in fact they do bro looks completely dusted and they said the worst she could say is no anyway naun emphasizes her point and tries to leave but Sven isn't exactly getting the memo here and asks if he just has to prove that he's stronger than her at this point she's getting peeved and getting

creeped out by his words all of a sudden a demonic hand lashes out at her Sven annihilates the very ground she's standing on he's acting like he's being Possessed by the nine-tailed fox with this tailed beast form of his and anyway the reason our girl survived the brutal attack is because hajin stepped in and Amplified his defense Shield thanks to The Ether equipment just as he's turning to ask if she's all right Sven impales him with a strong strike naun attempts to grab her weapon in what little time she has while hajin is fighting for

his life as the fiend strangles him naun activates magic condensation immediately And cuts one of the tentacles demanding that he free hajin this guy goes completely mad and starts yapping about how much he loves naun and obsesses over her his obsession causes his demonic form to become stronger nayun is enraged and still uses her magic condensation while hajin is powerless a beam of green light illuminates as nyun manages to achieve the heights of her potential the author explains how there are some characters in the world who end up Choosing incorrect weapons that don't match their

gifts of those characters naun is at the top of the list since her real specialty isn't with long range weapons but magic she materializes a giant sword out of her full strength and demands Sven to free hajin at once naun goes ahead and releases a cataclysmic attack against the fiend the aftermath of this attack is nothing but destruction from where nayun stands it shredded the ground itself impressing Nayun with her own powers hajin can't even believe what the he just saw he thinks the girl casted a damn lightsaber like she's The Last Jedi or something

she's just as confused as him and doesn't know what happened more importantly naun is worried if he's okay hajin confirms that he's doing well but her own condition is a real mess as her last attack drained her power completely her vision turns hazy and she collapses to the ground rushes to her Aid after a While the unconscious girl finally wakes up and flinches realizing that he's carrying her on his back she's so embarrassed that she wants to be put down at once hajin doesn't think that's a wise idea and he's trying to help her out

but this girl is far too embarrassed to accept his help he lets her go causing her legs to give out on her as she collapses to the ground once again naun is terrified as she doesn't even possess the strength to stand on her two Legs it's almost as if she's lost control of them bro looks at her with a baffled face and questions if this is the first time She's suffering from a Mana burnout from her winded and stunned expression it confirms to hajin that she's probably never even heard of it before he explains how

a Mana burnout is when a person has exhausted every last ounce of their Mana causing them to become powerless this means it's going to be tough for her to walk on her own For the next two days minimum hajin teases her and wonders if he should just leave her here with no choice left nun is forced to accept his help and climbs on his back as they're making their way back hajin asks if she's still going to keep using her bow as her main weapon since he's seen an incredible development in battle nun is confused

where he's coming from but hajin tells her that even she must have felt something inside of her she unlocked a New ability that was previously unknown to her thanks to her magical powers she could help annihilate hundreds of monsters and fiends with just a single slash when it comes to an allout War nun's Powers are borderline Unstoppable with the talent she has manifested just now that's why she's called the supreme ruler of the battlefield in the future but for that to happen she is going to have to give up on her precious weapon which she

has used since a young age Naun feels enraged because of how much he knows about what's best for her hajin thinks she's going to stick to the bow for a while he helps her get close to the portal and recommends she carry the rest of her way on her own nun is left helpless by his sudden leave even begging him to stay but this dude is just a chill guy and walks away because he's not a s the following day news of China yun's assault reaches the eyes and ears of many cadets at the cube

they Even come to know about the identity of the fiend Sven hajin merely Paces through the cadets without paying any attention he approaches a door and opens it only to find a bunch of notable characters gathered all in one place there's hak jong-hak Yona and then the class rep yongan the key players have gathered in one location and hajin is a part of them now let's talk about the day before the incident involving chy Yun suho asked our boy out to spare some Time on Friday because he was looking for a favor from hajin when

the author asked for more information suho told him that he is interested in investigating the missing students the institution has put him in charge to lead the team from among the cadets since the institution hoped to prevent outside intervention they decided to form an internal investigation at the hands of cadets from every grade in order to eventually catch the culprit involved the Representatives of the firste investigation team are notable characters like suho Jong haak and naun suho also added that the institution could have done an investigation using a personal team but they figured the most

effective way to catch the perpetrator hiding among the cadets is by using the C Debs themselves hajin could get all of that but he couldn't understand why he's the one being asked surprisingly he learned that naun made a personal Request to add him to the group which is why suho decided to take the step and invite him in that's why hajin ended up going it would also help him acquire more story points on the side which is good for him overall suho begins explaining that they'll need opinions to decide the case he also wants to

lay down the deductions everyone has made so far none of them believe that sven's correlated incident with naun is tied with the investigation But just as suho is talking about this point jonguk becomes riddled with rage questioning if they're talking about the same nun from their class suho doesn't know why he's being dramatic and believes that she'll be the next Target from their class this is backed by the fact that fiends are given orders via demons that means the demon who formed a pact with Sven will likely keep on Hunting nayun using its other puppets

suho then asks if the rest of them find Anyone suspicious to be mentioned in the list as it would be a great help to know now hajin himself knows the ident of the person responsible for the disappearances however he's trying not to interfere with the events of the story which is also why he doesn't want to reveal the guy's identity that's what hajin believed as six students disappeared in two months from out of nowhere in the original story but what's really interesting is that three Students have already disappeared in 2 weeks in the current timeline

meaning the plot is advancing faster and more students may fall victim to this guy faced with this situation and remembering how he helped nayun hajin is faced with a difficult decision while he wants to let the story unravel at its own pace it also means he would risk the people involved that he cares about he no longer wants to be the person who ignores evils which is why hajin Promptly raises his hand claiming that he knows someone who might be a primary suspect his name drops this person it's the bastard hun the Charming and the

president of the study Club his sudden accusation causes the entire room to fall dead silent suho argues that it can't be him since they've already investigated the guy and nothing came out of him jong-hak particularly mocks this suggestion as it would mean that hun is is using psychic magic to lure His victims hajin counters that he doesn't know if he's using typical psychic magic but he's still doubtful all of a sudden yanha joins the discussion taking a sharp jab at our boy hajen she thinks that it's rather odd for him to accuse others in reality

instead of the club president yanha believes that he may be the person most likely to be the fiend involved hajin is baffled by her words let's go back to the beginning of the novel right when it Was being created hajin felt the need to add an assistant character to the main protagonist this character he thought would be necessary to help suho using their strong personality and complex interests happily adding the character back then the author Kim hajin named this character Yu Yona and now let's return to the present Yona emphasizes her point counter accusing hajin

to be the real fiend among them suho tries to defend our boy explaining that hajin has The excuse of using a portal at the time of the incidents yanha explains that she's just dealing in baseless accusations just like our boy she thinks it's pointless to bring up the study Club president's name like that when Hun's excuse is more solid compared to hajin the author tries to control the situation but he's already lost it as one of the other characters is enraged and suggests they all attack him and see if he transforms or not the situation

Turns in the benefit of Yong haak who has been meaning for this to happen all the while hajin is struck colorless and doesn't get why he has to Bear the brunt of their suspicions he lets out a small laugh and instead of backing down Roars at the cadet daring him to come and try attacking him if he's really interested in eating a head shot I'm not going to lie I really like like this side of him suho attempts to break their quarrel while hajin argues that they should Consult naun to clear suspicions about him he's

just about to bring up how they were together at the portal when Jong Haw suddenly whacks a basketball full force at him enraged that he brought up her name Jong Haw questions why he's bringing her up at all hajin argues that when she ended up getting attacked by the fiend they both combined their strengths to beat the monster he even belittles Yong Hawk and his lackes for screwing around and not knowing the Obvious details about the incident Jong Haw loses his temper while while the class rep helps calm him down hell is breaking loose between

the main characters over here hajin clears his name and proceeds to take his exit but just as he's reaching for the door the cadet rushes to Pummel him with a powerful fist hajin senses his overwhelming presence and instantly Ducks the punch that obliterates the door to Pieces even Yung Hawk is Surprised by his sudden attack while the assault is shocked that hajin managed to duck his immensely fast strike just now hajin is now effectively pissed and brings out his gun to shoot him down the cadet lunges to attack him as hajin prepares to take his

shot both of them are stopped with a sword slash by the main character suho himself he thinks hak has overstepped his boundaries quite a bit and even believes yon is doing too much instead of Consulting nayun about Her suspicions first she pauses before using her Smartwatch hajin storms off as yon learns from nayun on a call that hajin is physically impossible to be a friend as a suspect now that nayun herself has cleared his name everyone in the room is not only embarrassed but also fully wronged by how they mistreated him these don't deserve his

help honestly hajin storms off and clears his head in the field he's faced with a real rut and doesn't Get why he's facing so much trouble putting up with his current life at first he fell victim to the plot of the novel he wrote and now he's out here fighting the characters he passionately wrote unable to carry on any longer hajin shrinks in defeat and confesses that he's tired of the world he's living in he misses his real family back at home and expresses a desire to go back to his own world little thoughts like

his expiring lease are beginning to Bother him and he wonders if he's already been listed as a missing person in the real world by now then there's his parents he wonders if they're okay and if they're looking for them there's so much to unpack that he was trying to suppress at this moment he feels helpless and vulnerable fragile and boxed there's no way of going back yet he can't help but let out a yearning desire to go back well the dude is whining when the system pops up and Reveals that his resilient stat has increased

in response to what happened today hajin thinks it's kind of pointless but he's still glad his resilience increased a little bit he believes the person that entered this world may have taken his life by now if he didn't have the resilience to keep on going deciding to move past his whining he cleans himself up like a champion and from the same shrinking posture now stands a confident Hero ready to face Life headon again let's revisit suho and the rest of the idiots who spectacularly up yongan asks where hajin went and suho thinks he's out to

get some space for himself there's yanha who knows the dumbass hak even went ahead and used his ability just now what's more she kind of thinks it's really sketchy how hajin managed to dodge an attack from a martial artist while being a ranged weapon user himself it just causes her even more suspicion over him Well she receives a sudden message from hun who requests to see her in the study room the upcoming day this is exactly happening like hajin said but as much as she likes to be suspicious this dumb accepts the offer of a

person who is literally getting done murdering someone right now hajin is starting to understand why people say it's better to be busy when you're depressed ever since he joined the novel story he's just been so busy working on improving himself and Hunting that he forgot to think about anything in detail about what he's missing from The Real World he's sitting all quiet to himself while the rest of his characters like suho and young Han are visibly worried for him especially after the phenomenal cause the other day hajin is a little frustrated when he realizes he

stuck in a story of the characters he wrote he thinks it's a good time to start investing in ways of getting back home naun rejoins the class Having recovered her health despite Jong hok's concerns for her suho offers to assist her since she's still not in top shape jongok is a little possessive of her and not afraid to show it hajin is focused on yanha who is sitting without a care in the world for what happened yesterday class begins with the instructor reminding them about the incoming midterms after the written exam has been conducted they'll

move on to the Practical exam where they will be Judged on two tasks of evaluation the first task is a duel among the cadets while the second task is going to be judged on the basis of a monster battle using Mage summoned beasts the instructor highlights that the difficulty for both will be more rigorous than the normal exercises they usually do do hearing this hajin reflects that he's not at all worried about the written exam the only thing bothering him is the duel every Cadet Will be given three nomination cards which will determine the cadets

they'll face as their opponents at first it seems like the top students would easily crush the Bottom rankers by picking them as their targets however the cube institution knows this which is why they implemented a reward grading system this means that if a top ranker defeats a bottom ranker they're not going to get much points from them they might even receive negative points based on the Cadet's ranks however not everyone seems to be affected by this rule like horo who is generally a brawler and thinks with his head he's just trying to beat up hajin

as his only target for example apart from that hajin is bothered by another thing Rachel has been acting a little weird around him and has been keeping close hajin explains that she's always been secretly observing what he's doing when normally she's studying all by herself he doesn't get what she's Trying to do and if her intention is to copy his assignments Rachel darts an eye at his notes while he's happily writing down the names of his parents this just causes the girl to get even more confused the scene cuts to yon's side where hu is

eagerly awaiting her arrival she doesn't know what's this about and approaches the study room where this charming Prince is happily awaiting her yeah she doesn't give a and realizes that none of the other club Members are here yet hun insists that she take her seat since they'll be here very soon Yana sees a strange scented candle that's been placed out in the open hun makes an excuse that he's using it to improve his Focus during studying he talks about how she's a part of the investigation team to hunt the fiend responsible for the missing students

hu is also on one of the teams himself but he hasn't seen any progress from his side so he wonders if Yona has a leading Suspicion of her own she claims that no one really comes to mind at the same time she can't help but remember how one idiot talked about some baseless accusations intrigued hun inquires further and with a snap of his finger he controls yon ha's body causing her to feel incredibly relaxed as if she's hypnotized she confesses the truth stating that one of her classmates seems to be convinced that hun is the

FI and he's using psychic powers on the victims Involved hun enthusiastically asks if there's any evidence to prove that this is the part where this slipped up you see yanha immediately catches on to the word evidence as mentioned by Hun he tries to play it off cool and claims that he misspoke but he's already far too deep into her suspicions now Yana readies her weapon and claims that innocent people never talk about evidence when suspected of wrongdoing after all they're innocent to Begin with yon brings out her whip lashing out at hu and demanding his

true identity the curtains have been lifted at last this Sinister fiend unravels his true nature and tells Yan that her turn will come soon so there's no reason to rush the scene ends there and switches to the second-year student dorms here yanha wakes up finally regaining her Consciousness only to discover that she's stuck all tied up her eyes glance away at the objects placed inside the Empty room she is quick to recognize that these are the second-year dorm rooms which means hon has captured her which also means that he's the hidden fiend responsible for the

disappearances of all the the students here's the kicker this idiot finally realized that hajin wasn't bullshitting her instead of blaming herself she prioritizes a way to get out of this rut she tries to break free from the Rope binding her hands begging for someone to come free her but It's of no use as hun is already here and prefers she stay quiet and do as she asks the scene cuts to our boy hajin who has just received a sudden message from someone at the dead of the night it's from Yan too so he can't place

a finger on it Jana sent just a simple number nine which is just way too cryptic of a message for this dude to understand anyway the bastard hun breaks away her Smartwatch and mocks Yana for sending cryptic messages at the dead of the Night in her struggling State he also takes note of the recipient Kim hajin who was supposed to be the person yon ha rebelled against he thinks it's just inevitable for hajin to die as well now J Roars at him claiming that he won't get away with his actions especially since the investigation team

is going to be hot in Pursuit after him the murderous hun breaks her smart watch and reminds the girl that he has no interest in staying at the institution he's just Going to kill her and leave the cube hearing his words yanha is filled with unfathomable rage much to the entertainment of this charming he decides to call forth the demon Lilith who made a PCT with him hun wants to transform her expression to one of horror instead let's go back to hajin who is still wondering what yunha tried to imply with this message there's a

bunch of questions popping in his head when all of a sudden he connects the Dots and realizes that it's supposed to be 911 instantly equipping himself with the Tome of Truth hajin asks for y 's immediate location when the book reveals the answer hajin is surprised that she's in the seconde dorms the scene reverts to Yan's demise who is currently facing the voice of the demon Lilith she Comforts the girl who has faced so much loneliness throughout her life Hun's psychic powers are not enough to take her down however since Yana glares at Him with

a look of anger proving that her will is strong and that she isn't ready to throw away her dignity she resists his mind control so he takes it a step further and brushes her hair claiming that even the demon Lilith wants to succumb to her spell the girl flails as best she can to break free from the psychic spell while the monster hun gleefully remarks that there's no way to escape Lilith's powerful magic no matter how much she tries to resist it Then from out of nowhere bro gets headshotted from the window his brains hit

the floor as he wailes in agony one voice calls out to yanha taunting her for the situation she's put herself in by refusing to believe in his words the wounded fiend calls out for the impudent asent hajin happily adds that the bullet he used just now was tailored to his liking this bullet won't be removed unless proper surgery is conducted so there's No way of Simply healing from it hu goes batshit crazy and unleashes his demonic Powers urging hajin to reveal his location in his outrage he destroys the entire room even striking down Yono with

his attack hajin thinks he's just pointlessly wasting his energy he ridicules hun Wu and still doesn't know where he is our boy is ready to pull the trigger a second time and claims that he's sitting somewhere far then he launches three more shots bursting Through the fiend's body and putting him him on the ground his body crashes as he finally sees hajin hidden location from afar he was sharp shooting using his calibrated sniper rifle easy kills is why he loves longrange shots he reminds yanha that he's going to waste all of the bullets she gave

him he puts more holes in hun and is hoping for Yona to cover his expenses later this guy has literally terrified the fiend who thinks hajin is crazier than a literal demon Hajin puts another hole in his back with another powerful shot at this point Hun's a walking zombie full of holes content with his work hajin thinks it should be enough he asks if Yana's hurt but thankfully she isn't he recommends she lay unconscious as the rescue team will be here soon her Consciousness Fades as she releases words of gratitude to the person who just

saved her life Yona wakes up at the hospital where suho is sitting by her side peeling an Apple For her suho mentions that there's nothing wrong with yona's physical condition so she should be fine she's the one bothered to ask why he's here suho explains that each of them took turns to nurse her back to health and now it's his turn yanha doesn't get why they're doing this for her suho expresses that they feel responsible for the situation caused they were the members of the investigation team and yet one of their own was harmed while

They focused their efforts elsewhere suho apologizes on the behalf of the entire group Yona is speechless and has a feeling suho is stubborn she's also formed a positive opinion of him through this interaction however the misunderstanding caused between her and hajin hasn't escaped her mind she wants to know if a specific individual came to check on her suho doesn't get what she's talking about to too embarrassed to clarify yanha decides not to bother and Stares at the beautiful sky outside later that day hajin receives a personal message from Yona who wants to help repay him

for his actions the situation turned out positive for hajin personally since he increased his story points by nearly 500 his Dead Eye skill also bumped up a grade and reached grade seven hajin notes that it's the most amount of story points he's ever received from one action he thinks the effort required to resolve one of the Main arcs justifies the points he received while hasn't really used much of his sniping skills they were good enough to put Yana's life out of danger just then a voice calls out for hajin it's the agent suak who is

delighted to find out the young Cadet contacting him out of the blue the man immediately drops to his knees begging hajin not to resign from the contract they made it's not that serious for hajin though because he never planned on doing Something like that instead he presents a briefcase to the man claiming that he's interested in investing his cash in sh entertainment his words shock the agent let's unpack hjin thoughts process here the ginang he Acquired and posted on the website returned him with a brilliant 300 million1 first he used 250 million from that amount

to invest in pack horem stocks and the remaining 150 he wants to invest in sh entertainment considering the growth potential of the Company hajin is confident that it's going to reap him profits just like packhorse Masters the agent is too stunned to speak he can't even find himself worthy of receiving such a massive amount hajin tells him that he should just take the amount for the best of both their benefits he he makes an additional request to buy a magic pouch as well as a high utility vehicle with the amount after confirming the agent's age

hajin tells him to be at ease with The formality and just address him casually the agent can't accept that coming from his newest investor which makes hajin wonder if he should cancel the investment instead now that is something that puts the agent back on his toes as he decides to address hajin casually they decide to take a walk by the convenience store for something the agent asks why they're worried about lottery tickets now hyene is so damn smart he knows he can't receive the Prize money for the lottery without an active Guardian he wants to

prioritize the best of his luck ability hajin wins 2 billion1 from the lottery alone to give you guys a rough comparison that's equal to a million5 doar hajin is prepared to invest this amount as well and wants the agent to edit the contract accordingly the agent tries to receive his Blessing and guards it with his life scared that someone might end up stealing the sum from him anyway at an Unknown Warehouse a spiritual creature materializes and tells its master that a certain group has begun making their move the packhorse Masters has been listed the leader

intends to steal a particular item and disregards the rest the spiritual creature also remarks on witnessing something strange he has come to notice how someone is aggressively buying the packhorse Master's Guild stocks at first this person invested 3 million then 10 million and now a Whopping 250 million it seems suspicious for someone to have so much money without a proper name the leader doesn't care though and prioritizes working on their goal the spiritual creature also reports that he saw a bunch of new pages opening up on the website there's stuff about The Relic search party

and the truth agency something about the truth agency strikes odd with him he wonders if they should file a request to locate the target the leader aggressively Addresses drun by his name warning him to cut out his comedy drun remembers that the midterm exams are also supposed to begin from Tomorrow onwards everyone is talking about Kim suho and shin jong-hak drun wonders if his boss will infiltrate the scene turns out she plans to make a move and she's hoping to find someone useful from among the group which in this case is implied to be Kim

hajin sometime passed and the inauguration for the Practical tests of The midterms had finally begun hazuki jumps and Embraces her mother in kind as it had been a while since they last saw each other during the Practical week it is explained that the cube opens up to many employment agencies like guilds and the association as well as the families of the cadets involved this results in a giant crowd taking form like that of a festival an announcement is made confirming the Cub's position as the world's leading hero Academy to nurture The talents of the future

one of the top heroes Lee junha is personally making the announcement but hajin doesn't seem to be thrilled about anything so far he wonders if he should wait a bit longer he acquired drones from suyuk and set them all over the institution for his personal investigation of finding Intruders while he's there he accidentally bumps into a lady and apologizes for his intrusion this woman is the same one we saw at the secret Warehouse the one who has come here looking for a talent seeing her face to face hjin expressions are rocked because he totally forgot

about adding this character who was supposed to make an entrance in the Practical exams his surprised and fidgeting expression has left him a little too open hajin averts his eyes realizing that he's made the situation a little awkward he tries to remedy the situation by saying something bro wants to apologize but the words That come out of her mouth end up praising her beauty instead the woman looks at him with a cold dead Pann stare confirming that this idiot made the situation a 100 times worse she merely turns away without responding back as if to

say he isn't even worth the effort the woman disappears into the crowd and requests drun to watch out for the person she just crossed paths with because this individual somehow managed to notice her despite her perception Blocking item since he's suspicious she wants drun to investigate him further the author reflects that it's not only the heroes who come to welcome the cadets among them is the chameleon troop another group inside the cube they have the singular objective of either scouting suho or Jung Haw as one of the top rankers suho really doesn't fancy their belief

systems and he eventually gets disqual qualified as a prospective student from their IST then they pay Attention to Jong Haw specifically and that's how the original story of the novel goes the infiltration isn't the problem that's bothering hajen it's the story changes that could emerge from the alterations causing the security Heroes to also be involved the fight won't just end in a couple of people dying but much more speaking of the chameleon troop the heroes get a little annoyed at being unable to find a suspicious person one of the heroes thinks that they would get

A really bad reputation if an intruder passed them right in the middle of the Practical week by the way these two heroes are junuk and yongji both respectively ranked pretty high in the association for their skills they're trying to eliminate a threat before it manifests in the Practical week exam anyway let's talk about the suspicious leaders team they're surprised that one boy was able to see past the siren necklace which offers a perception Blocking feature to hide its Target the man is actually invested now because all he sees around him are nothing more than weaklings

as for drun he can't figure this dumbass out since all this guy thinks about is fighting strong people and that's what he wants to do with hajen he is instructed to stay grounded and focused on the mission since they are unsure about the boy's true capabilities or whether he poses a threat to them drun also tells him that The duels are soon about to commence the second arena is filled with a large crowd preparing to witness the first matchup of the day the first duel announced involves a nomination ticket being used Kim hajin is making

his way when yon stops him suddenly and asks if he's headed to the arena he confirms because he's supposed to be part of the first match A Satisfied yanha decides to use her servant to offer him a 100 top grade bullets like she promised of Course he isn't supposed to use any of them during the test but they're still up to him to use however he needs she's also ready to lend him more in the future if necessary as hajin accepts the briefcase yanha clarifies that she's not trying to make things even out between them

just because he saved her life rather she wants him to see it as more of a gift from her side she also tells him that many people have been asking her about the person who defeated the Demonic human hun during the previous incident however since she knows his identity is precious to him she decided to keep shut hajin is glad and hopes she behaves that way in the future there's obviously going to be a bunch of trouble popping up for him if people figure he's the one responsible for taking out the fish hun Yona is

strangely talkative today and even claims to accept that hajin hides his powers for a reason at the same time she thinks he's got no Shot of passing the exam without using his powers in response to her claim hajin is a little baffled she asks if he knows who's he facing up against and the surprised look on his face is enough to say that he didn't know until now inside the trainy waiting room one Furious Mead is lifting weights hoping to utterly demolish Kim hajin in this upcoming match The Scene goes back to drun who is

investigating everything there is to know about Kim hodan's background There's nothing special to note about him he was an orphanage who ended up in the military academy he's also a low-rank student without any special talents the only thing about him is that he's got a giant debt of 300 million to pay off reflecting on what happened between the two of them the woman questions how he broke past the perception blocking feature of her artifact she doesn't know how it happened and drun doesn't have any clue Either jung-yong the muscle head from before decides to meet

up with the leader of the chameleon troop she's annoyed that he bolted off someplace else before coming here jungyong tries to play it cool but she doesn't care about him and simply asks what he was able to investigate he claims that he didn't see anyone special from the group apart from weaklings in his way drun thinks it's obvious but he wants to know if there's a particular Cadet that stood Out a bunch from the rest jung-yong claims that he doesn't find anyone noteworthy drun explains that the first years are supposed to be exceptional this year

so he prefers jung-yong to investigate them instead there's also the fact that hajin duel is just about to start the same boy who managed to see past the perception blocking ability of their Captain back at the arena the high-grade heroes are munching on food being careless as they could ever be Instead of attending to their surveillance duties they talk about old times and family when suddenly a man catches their attention it's yungy and he's oddly sitting there and smiling for some strange reason they wonder if he's some kind of fan of the heroes since he's

staring at them from afar anyway the fight is supposed to begin hak of the martial arts is the first contestant to appear on stage the one he is supposed to face is ranked one of the Worst students in the institution Kim hajin both Fighters stand to face each other since hajin knows he's previously gotten on horo nerves before he plays around and Deals some heavy psychological damage HX special move involves using the Mana within his body to bring forth an invisible layer this is called the enhanced protection energy this means the guy is basically bulletproof

to training ammo and not only that he's a walking threat to any Opponent that makes the sorry mistake of standing before him it's the first matchup of the year and both Fighters are ready to rumble as the referee commences the start hak is the obvious aggressive fighter who makes his fist move while hajin waits in anticipation immediately activating bullet time to feel him out also he's increased the duration of bullet time from 3 seconds to now a whole minute which is just insane this will allow ow him the Necessary time to catch up to H's

insanely fast movements well it still doesn't save him from the dude punching the out of the arena and tumbling him even hajin thinks he's some kind of monster horo is heavy on the offense and chases after hajin all the while obliterating chunks off the arena the cadet finds an opportune moment and whips out his pistol at last hajin is able to use his shot inviting the Arrogant horo to believe that his Opponent is clueless for disregarding the defensive capabilities of his protection energy he thinks the bullet coming his way will be easily deflected Ed without

any problems but that's exactly what hajin wanted him to believe the bullet connects and causes him an overwhelming amount of pain damaging his shoulder a shocked horo is as puzzled as the rest of the people watching this fight a bullet piercing through the enhanced protection energy has never Been heard of before it's only now that horac is starting to realize who he's up against there's just no conceivable way for a bullet to pierce his impenetrable shield after all the confusion causes him worry and he shrinks his body to block the incoming bullets however every single

one of them causes him sharp throbbing pain hajin feels sorry for his opponent who assumed that he was more than capable of deflecting his bullets so easily the truth is these bullets Have been especially infused with the Mana of the stigma magic at the same time they boast anti-demon properties making them a force to be reckoned with hajin releases more of his shots putting hak on the defensive and the back foot the crowd cheers for the boy but hak has had enough and in a fit of rage pummels the arena to stop hain's ruthless attack

the debris chipping away from the arena causes hajin to switch positions and evade he then gives his opponent a Warning before tossing a knife right in his face afraid hak chooses to avoid instead of deflecting fearing that his opponent may have equipped a device on the knife however it was just another tactic deployed by hajin to trick his opponent as the knife was a fake now that he has hak in the open he shoots him down many times again making him unable to stand back up on his feet hajin slowly approaches the martial artist with

his gun hak's body trembles As the crowd is struck horrified by what the cadet is about to do next hain's finger is dead set on the trigger and he's ready to finish this fight hajin is prepared to take the shot while horo is defenseless to everyone's shocking surprise Kim hjin runs out of bullets at the last second hak may be exhausted but somehow manages to stand right back up still as interested as before but using this situation to his prime Advantage this guy literally throws in the towel And surrenders the fight rendering his opponent the

ultimate bitter taste of both Victory and defeat his sudden resignation even leaves the heroes stunned The Duel comes to a sudden close with the winner being named hak this kind of disgraceful Victory is at odds with the Meathead who Roars at hajin to come back but our boy is too chill to care about him and leaves the stage after the fight ends the doctors are shocked that hak recovered so quickly From his injuries despite being shot by actual bullets as for the high-grade heroes junuk asks for yung's impression of the fight that went down she

remarks that the cadet hajin was rather competent while his opponent made a ton of mistakes if only he took the fight slowly to his advantage anage instead of rushing he could have won despite her thoughts yji is solely obsessed with hajin performance there's the fact that he casted inhuman firing speed and even Displayed shocking visual prowess to keep track of the martial artist and put him in check then there's the fact when horo started getting weakened his opponent matched his Pace yungi wonders if hajin possesses a gift that makes him a rival to any opponent

he faces she's also concerned about the bullets he used that were infused with Mana but this is a ridiculous argument to junuk who knows for a fact that even Mana infused bullets aren't strong enough to crack The durability of the enhanced protection shield yongji claims that they have yet to fully grasp the gifts hajin poses to know for sure then there's the possibility that he might have enhanced himself from what yji has seen here today in the duel she's almost confident to admit that hajin boasts the potential to become the greatest hero of all time

she memorizes his name because of his noteworthy brilliant performance as for jung-yong he doesn't find himself Fancying hajin for some reason he thinks the boy is too weak and just so boring with a small pistol it crushes him that the captain told him to investigate his fight drun explains that hajin possesses the power of demonic destruction which is reason enough Yung Yong still isn't interested though and thinks it's a useless comparison to strength drun criticized him for acting like a just because hajin ended up being a ranged Fighter the warrior within Jungyong believes that a

true fight is when fatal intentions to murder another opponent is involved drun ridicules and challenges this blowhard to go and find some suitable Cadets with that level of desperation he also asks if this idiot ended up checking on suho and Jong haak their main interests jung-yong claims that they're all right he's seen Jong haak spear in combat and finds his physical prowess to be quite commendable there's also his aggression that puts Everyone else on the defense because of intimidation drun thinks Jong Hawk must possess one ugly character for this guy of all people to like

him then he talks about suho whom he considers a weird person suho's fight was rather interesting when it came to his swordplay since he can dance around with perfect Strokes in combat he has very sharp and refined movements but something about those movements didn't seem right to him suho ultimately won The fight but jung-yong kind of believes that suho is likely suppressing his true personality as if he's someone other than what he appears as drun thinks that this confirms suho's combat ability lives up to his reputation well jung-yong isn't really pumped about either fighter so

far lastly he asks about hajin whose name alone is enough to get this guy's blood boiling drun explains that the captain is interested in someone boasting anti-magic skills After all jungyong still hates the guy but while he's shouting out in the open one guard seems to catch him reminding the citizen that Outsiders aren't allowed in the forest so he must leave at once irritated to have been caught jungyong approaches the annoying bug and proceeds to squash him like an insect just a simple flick from his hand crushes the man's head as his body hits the

ground hearing what he just heard drun asks if this idiot knocked Someone's skull out jungyong is happy to confirm that he did which is bound to infuriate the captain since it causes needless trouble for them the scene switches back to the leader of the chameleon troop who is reminiscing of about some tragic flashbacks of her past it seems that she lost someone dear to her and hopes to exact her revenge someday she tasks drun with keeping a close eye on all three of her favorite candidates however the one who takes the Most priority out of

all of them is Kim hjin who could help them smash the Mana impairment with his special magic drun wonders if this is really the right move since they know next to nothing about the guy the leader doesn't care however and simply wants him to get the job done after all she intends to meet Kim hajin in person tomorrow on the second day of the midterm terms the arena is as Lively as it was yesterday there's a scout from The knife's Edge Guild and even the holy Grace of God so many highlevel people are making appearances

just to scout promising Cadets emerging from the duels according to the cube institution's ranking system suho is supposed to Face Off against Yohi the number eight in the academy then there's Rachel fighting against naun and their ranks are nearly identical to each other it's the best of the best dueling it out against each other the first matchup is between the girls hajin is playing a part as a Spectator nearly observing the scene since he already knows what happens hajin explains that Rachel will utterly demolish nayun in this fight today this is all thanks to nun's

oblivious stance since she has yet to switch weapons the eighth duel among the first years begins nayun thinks this is the perfect opportunity for her to switch rankings with Rachel since they're bordering next to each other she releases a powerful Arrow into the air which further splits In a cluster attack descending down her opponent Rachel awaits the attack and Dodges each one however one of the arrows is aimed for her head so instead of evasion she chooses to deflect instead naun is stumped by her defensive capabilities especially since the melee fighter is slowly gaining ground

and approaching her opponent The Crowd Goes Wild in this epic fight at the same time the leader of the chameleon troop decides to join Kim hjin and shares Seats with him she stares at him blankly while sitting right next to him bro is literally too stunned to speak letun finally Deep dive into who she is this chick is supposed to be one of the most wanted criminals ever and the person who is the captain of the masked syndicate while simultaneously boasting a powerful reputation as an underworld figurehead with multiple aliases her real identity is only

known to herself and just as the poor woman is about to say hello to our Boy some spills a cold drink all over her face it ruins her hair and destroys the mood even hajin is flabbergasted the man apologizes and they end up unable to see the outcome of the match Rachel takes the victory just like hajin wrote the novel anyway he hands the woman a handkerchief to clean herself up she finally gets to the topic of Interest having seen his duel against horac impressed by his performance she hands him a business card to reach

her She also wants to know if the power he used was an ability of some kind the card she's handing him is just one of her many aliases it reads Lee Shao Fang but it's not her real name because hajin would be able to recognize it as the author he FS ignorance and asks if she's here to scout him as a Guild Master hajin tries to take the card despite the fact that it's illegal to scout Cadet so early but as he's trying to pull away she grips it strongly refusing to let go The woman

remarks that she's incapable of proving it immediately but she has enough to offer to him she's expecting him to give her a call sometime after that she gets up and takes her leave hajin is left with a puzzled impression since he doesn't think there's any logical reason for her to come up and find him like this this begs the question why she came here at all anyway the rank between suho and Yohi concludes and the winner is as obvious as day it's The protagonist suho that's it for today's duels everyone is talking about suho's brilliant

performance at the same time many are discussing nun's downfall against Rachel until now no one had ever seen a Korean top talent get defeated by an international student like that hajin retrieves his drone in the hopes of capturing useful footage that will help with his investigation he wants to go to his room and pick apart the footage but right then he sees a miserable girl Crying all to herself it's naun and she's a mess for suffering a painful loss bro remembers writing this scene in the novel nun's state is in Decline but suho stops by

and helps her by comforting naun after her defeat this helps naun to eventually warm up to suho's character allowing her to open up to someone for the first time as much as hajin wants to encourage her he thinks useless consolation won't prove to be useful in her situation right now he Strongly believes that there are times in life where people should learn how to let things go but that's just not the kind of person Kim suho is as he's stubborn and unwilling to let things go hajin wonders if suho is going to be capable of

helping naun out in this situation this Sparks a brilliant idea in his head he decides to text her out of nowhere praising her for her fight Nan reads the message with confusion while wearing a flushed face hajin Teases her through his texts reminding her that she would have done so much better with a sword he thinks it's best for her to switch weapons like he did his words oddly hit her in a confusing light speaking of suho he comes by to execute his part from the novel but as he's about to comfort her he sees

nun's face filled with the anger of 10,000 Lions instead of pitying herself she is now fixated on hating the dumbass who is belittling her after her loss and that's How the first semester midterms exams came to an end hajin was casually viewing his Drone footage when he spotted something horrifying it's junyong popping someone's head clean off with a flick the site is just a brutal mess leading him to wonder if this dude is also related to the criminal group from his actions hajin can tell he's a serious nutcase who doesn't bear a single hesitation before

killing someone what's worse is that he did it for his Personal enjoyment there are many people like him in this novel the cities now filled with advancements make daily life comforting but underneath them lurked the monsters who didn't have any sense of right or wrong while these people were human from the outside they still opposed the heroes of the world they wield a power beyond the ordinary criminals these Psychopathic Maniacs are the villains of the story hajin reflects that it's simply not enough to be wary Of the antagonists in the novel he's also dealing with

an edited version of the novel because of the co-author which means just about anyone could become his enemy in this world the midterms first test has concluded and so that leads us to the monster testing site for the second practical exam the cadets are all welcomed by Jin jua a mage that will supervise the competition among the cadetes jua wants to summarize the exam contents before beginning this giant Stage is the place where monster battles among the students will take place JEA will cast the monsters and the cadets will have to fight them the examination

is supposed to be the most dangerous training they will have gone up to this point as the summoned monsters will be just as powerful as real monsters and they won't disappear even if jeah tries to cast them away the cadets are intimidated realizing they're staking their lives for this one training exam JEA prefers they accept defeat as quickly as possible if needed now for the criteria regarding their evaluation their performance will be judged based on how well they did against the monster JEA tells everyone to take a position and do their best in the exam

four people will be called at one time to initiate group one's exam these four people consist of junho huki junun and Spencer all of them are put on standby until the monsters are summoned the Mage Tells the rest of the cadetes to pay close attention to the fights the cadets who aren't f writing will have a chance to analyze the performance of their classmates they'll be the ones to score them based on how well they performed they could even add their own notes on what strategies could have been deployed instead JEA wants to initiate the

exam but first she requests everyone to turn off their SmartWatches she also reminds them to offer a sincere report since it Will affect the grade of their written exam so in cases like these not even the lazy naun can half-ass the report anyway the monster battles finally begin the Mage casts a summoning magic to bring forth one of the beasts from her spell materializes the first Monster before huki the evolved ghoul this strong and agile creature is quick on the draw and gives her a tough time from the get-go the rest of the cadets mark

their reports as the battles are taking place Group one's fights are concluded allowing group two to enter in their place one of the cadets annihilates the snake monster it's the class representative young Han who has impressively defeated the creature without any trouble suddenly a beam of light from above comes roaring down on another monster it's naun who used her cluster arrows to beat the Unicorn monster also clearing the test then there's yanha who seems to be toying Around with the creature she's dealing with a few more groups pass by until it's time for group 10

to arrive Kim hajin is faced against a unique monster the Chrome wolf as expected he shoots down the Beast with his evasive tactics having found a comfortable position hajin believes that the fight is too easy for him and he'll be done in no time with it but suddenly something bad happens causing confusion amongst the cadets hajin looks up to ask what Happened while the hero Jun huk receives a report to on duty he also gets scolded for ignoring his responsibility yongji reminds him that one of the guards was literally murdered yesterday so this is no

time to be lazing around an emergency alert has been fired off but Jun huk asks if she's uncovered the origin of it yongji suspects it came from the seafloor near him as junuk is speaking to her a man comes out from behind it's jung-yong the villain and he's happy to Take care of the guy who has become their newest obstacle junuk warns him that he should be trespassing into off-bound locations jung-yong simply doesn't care and prepares to fight this guy he warns Jun huk that it will be a fight he's going to regret but as

they're taking position the vibration grows stronger stealing their attention from the sea a tall twister manifests forcing the examination to come to a suspended State Cadets are instructed at One to evacuate the site and prioritize their safety the final group engaging in the monster battle is told to immediately evacuate instead of completing their battles hajin is agitated leaving things halfway and questions what's causing so much trouble the building rumbles as the monsters roam free hajin is hiding behind cover afraid for his life since the monsters haven't been unsummoned he calls for help but no one

seems to be around he Analyzes the situation realizing that a mere coincidence couldn't have caused this level of madness he wonders if it's the work of a fiend from among the Mages who is secretly the perpetrator hajin lays down his suspicions he marks out Jin JEA from his suspect list because of the mere fact the system would have informed him about it it's clear that no one in the examination center expressed any new changes that would have caught his eye then hajin faces a critical Realization as his eyes Dart around realizing what's truly causing this

Havoc over to a different side Rachel is confronted by a mysterious Warrior their mere presence causes her unease as hajen collects his thoughts he thinks it's possible that the story is causing an original event to occur just like the existence of Kim chundong a character whom the author didn't write sir Lancaster is revealed to have a connection to Rachel and is likely the Culprit manipulating the scenes the story has just experienced another major twist that hajin doesn't know a thing about Rachel confronts Alex Lancaster a mage who mysteriously disappeared in the London incident many years

ago Rachel questions him but in response the man lets out a Sinister smile across his face Rachel instantly catches what happened this man sold his soul to the demons in the name of power she can't accept the fact that the Royal guard's Former captain could stoop so low but Lancaster is mostly unaffected by her words and arrogantly corrects her he reminds Rachel how he was betrayed while he served the king in his country so all he did was adopt a new master to serve Rachel grips her blade recognizing this man as her enemy and professes

that she will bring him to Justice with her incredible speed the exceptional student attempts to slash her however she is shocked when her blade simply phases Through his body as if it's intangible Lancaster apologizes to her after all the person in front of her is nothing more than an illusion incapable of receiving any damage the really Troublesome aspect for Rachel is that everyone is focused on the external attack leaving Rachel exposed as no one would come to check in for her the rest of the monsters will keep them busy Lancaster points out how different the

institution is as her country would have Thrown hundreds of people just to protect those of the royal family remembering the horrors of what Lancaster faced after losing someone precious which likely caused his switch he is even more convinced the Mage tells her that he doesn't have the time to discuss much else right now so he'll leave her be Rachel tries to seize him but let's be honest it's not like she can stop him anyway Lancaster's body dissolves in black but from there a Dangerous faceless assassin emerges with his twin blades the Assassin disappears Into Thin

Air before striking Rachel with an incredibly powerful blow she's physically shaken and sent on the back foot the Assassin continues hammering his powerful attacks so much so that Rachel's body is receiving mild slashes throughout this is an opponent she can't overpower in a direct flight so she plans to wait for an opening to strike unfortunately that won't happen as Rachel's weapon is swindled away leaving her completely defenseless the dark figure stares at her prey now that she's left with nothing but her human body but Rachel has a few more tricks up her sleeves as she's

able to use telekinetic magic to draw her sword the weapon comes flying back right as the Assassin prepares to deal the finishing blow but an unexpected explosion from the outside causes a distraction stopping them both one man steps inside on top of the Rubble seeing this person the Assassin switches targets and decides to attack him at once hajin converts his weapons configuration once more and this time he pulls out American breathing style second variation shotgun mode hajin has eliminated the target without much trouble apparently he didn't even take more than a single shot he's okay

with spending 250 story points for the cause since it was all worth it in the end now for Rachel she figures out that it's Actually one of her classmates who has come to her rescue the boy offers her a hand and asks if she's okay completely forgetting that this girl is bleeding all over the place haene uses his bandages to wipe her blood but it seems embarrassing for the princess who fidgets as he goes about his business thankfully it's not as bad as it could have been while wiping her blood hajin inspects the bandage and

unexpectedly realizes that he's just acquired the Sample of the top ranked Cadet it's just the kind of thing he was looking for Rachel thanks him for all the help the Mages of the institution also rush to the scene questioning if either of them are hurt they come down to help them out while jyn the Mage instructor is informed how two more Cadets are seriously injured JY is infuriated and also questioning the person responsible for causing so much destruction let's revisit the hero at the shore junuk is Met with his friend who asks about the monster

attack fortunately the monster was chased off and not by junuk but by the works of an intruder junuk wonders what made the creature so tense and angry and yet the Intruder still defeated it with little to no problems without a doubt from the looks of his strength the man seemed immensely powerful she has trouble taking his words seriously and junuk agrees because he thinks the same he's also certain That this same terrifying man was linked to the killing of the guard with the appearance of both a highlevel creature as well as this mysterious Intruder the

institution's midterms have been expunged in chaos a day passed and yesterday's monster incident ended up flocking up in the news the entire world raised questions causing the postponement of the midterm exams with most teachers drawn to explain and help with reconstruction of the damages the Classes of the students were eventually called off that's how hajin class celebrated in joy as they had 10 full days to themselves with no work to worry about their instructor couldn't believe his eyes they were celebrating right when their classmates were nearly killed but I kind of understand their excitement all

of a sudden hjin laptop is hit with another notification he learns that it's yet another Divergence from the story About to take place which is annoying enough for him to deal with the Mage known as Alex Lancaster is the topic of Interest we come to find out that he lost an important family in an incident and his infuriated State increases the chances of him targeting Rachel there's also his ever Rising potential to become an even greater villain depending on how the story pans out thankfully hajin remembers Lancaster from the list of British characters he wrote

this guy is Supposed to to be a serious villain but his appearance here is premature and unexpected at this point hajin is regretting not adding more Heroes on the protagonist side because the villains in this story are getting out of hand deep in thought he's at least glad to have acquired Rachel's blood without any suspicions suddenly one girl hits his head only naun is bold enough to do that she's pissed at him but it's warranted because hajin keeps telling her to Forget about archery and pick up something new that's because he knows it's an incompatible

weapon with her potential suho and the class rep are watching ing the scene from afar realizing the two problem children are ated again suho for some reason thinks they're behaving better than before naun goes back to her dorm room satisfied that she was able to annoy the heck out of our boy for teasing her yet naun receives a message on her Smartwatch It's the feedback report on her recent test performance and excited naun is interested in checking others reviews as well like suho for example very surprisingly suho wrote High remarks for the girl he mentioned

how scared and uncertain naun was until she became confident and eventually proved herself as a skilled Cadet he describes her persistence and talent to be one of her strong suits and actually favored nun's decision to keep using the bow suho even Mentions how some doubt her abilities but the only aspect she's lacking in is her self-confidence lastly he thinks that nayun has the potential to become one of the strongest Heroes as long as she keeps proving herself reading such words naun is shaken and flustered to tears she is further convinced in her prowess as an

Archer and disregards hajin bullying n reads the second report which is written from an anonymous account this person wrote an entire Essay for some reason excited more than ever especially after suho's review she jumps ahead to read after a small pause nun's entire body trembles with anger her blood is boiling at the words she's reading to the point hazuki catches her screaming from inside her room filled with anger naun vows to prove this Anonymous bully wrong having placed the sample from Rachel on top of the seed hajin waits in anticipation the seed of Evangel that

he discovered in Garrison Holds a special power upon being fed sufficient amounts of human blood the seed will eventually rebirth The Witch of Angel hajin is a little glad that it's got the qualities of Rachel now so the seed won't turn out to be a menace to deal with otherwise he'd be dealing with a damn villain he impatiently pokes at the little seed begging it to just grow already suddenly the author experiences a sharp Pang across his body his face grows pale because he literally Can't deal with what is about to happen the second stigma

Mark has just appeared on his wrist promising him a hell of a pain like last time his screams Roar as the night comes to an end the following day our boy has spaced the out even his agent sees his Restless face and wonders if he's all right hajin changes the subject and asks about the agency's business thankfully they've acquired a proper transport for hunting now and they've also grown in customers it's Given the man some clarity compared to the stressful setting he had to face on the field he thanks hajin for his endless support and

hajin decides that it's best to change topics again seeing a crowd gathered nearby he asks what's going on at first he wonders if they're from Guild then it is revealed that certain heroes from The Straits of essence Guild are making their way causing such an uproar from among these people hajin glances at Yona and wonders If she's also here for an investigation with her team surprisingly she also manages to catch him peeking at her Yona comes up to ask if he's got anything to do with the field he politely explains that he's just here for

a quick cash grab and even introduces his agent the dude is stunned that hajin shares a connection to a prominent member of The Straits of essence Guild hajin thinks about it for a second and realizes is that suyak being paired with Yona has Got to be one of the worst combinations because of their opposite nature as established before suyak is supposed to become the main Hero's agent in the original story when Jana discovers about his agency she becomes the Catalyst to investing in suu's company causing an enormous growth for the business but now a real

problem has risen it's undecided whether or not the current yanha will deem suu's business a worthy investment it could cause a really negative Trajectory for suuk if she doesn't anyway Yana pulls out a surprising move and decides to join them for the hunt it's a shocking twist to hajin who has a thousand questions raised over his head anyway the tense car ride continues with both of them being distant from each other hajin Waits patiently and wonders Yana's intentions the girl finally speaks and straight up asks if he's got anything planned for the future stunned hajin

requests her to clarify the Question yanha expresses that she wants to know what he plans to do after he's done graduating from the institution the author reacts normally and states that he didn't invest any thoughts since it's so far away Yana explains that it's reasonable to spend time thinking about the future since in the third year they won't be seeing the institution as often the third year is when Cadets are classified as trainee Heroes complicating their lives here comes the Main point Yan directly offers hajin an invitation to her Guild reasoning that they're standing just

in second place in top rankings the holy grace of God being the best Guild all over however as soon as Yana Takes Over The Guild she aspires to make it the best Guild in all of Korea she also promises him plenty of support all around ranging from Agents to weapons poor suyuk flinches when he realizes his job might be cooking Yana confidently shares that she's presented A lucrative offer to someone who has yet to realize their potential as a hero the boy reminds her that she can't just do whatever she wants since scouting cadets at

this stage is considered illegal for any Guild it actually causes an enormous fine of nearly $350,000 but this girl is so rich she thinks it's worth the risk the vehicle comes to an unexpected hard stop launching Yana's face into the seat and giving her a nose bruise she shouts at The damn driver for stopping all of a sudden a nervous suyu explains that they've already arrived at their destination which is the monster point for today's mission yanha is in disbelief and mocks him for pretending to find a monster Point while being a normal agent suuki

explains how monsters seasonally love going wild in April causing my heroes to go and hunt them down this is the reason many Monster points are overcrowded at this time of The year the place he selected was mainly to highlight hajin strengths as a sharpshooter giving him an environmental Edge on the field to back up his agent words the author confirms that he's already verified the information so there's no need to worry hajin tells them that he'll return after he's done with his hunting Mission saying so he leaves the two of them but it seems yanha

is also disinterested in sharing a chat with the agent and leaves quickly Saying her Guild members are soon to arrive she knocks at the window surprising suyak with her sudden return turns out the agent has impressed her with his skills so she's interested in doing business with him in the near future 10 days passed since the midterms came to an abrupt end classes now naturally resumed their Pace allowing the cadets to return to the institution the Curious Cadets explore the results board wanting to know about where they Placed we can see from here that Kim

hajin placed at the top of the list which is a natural expectation as he believes himself right after beating hak during the Practical exam the idiots who J Haw sent after him decided not to bother him so these days have been nothing but filled with tranquility and peace the kind of piece he didn't initially receive when he first entered the institution as he's going about his business one punch crosses his face and Smashes the nearby wall it comes as no surprise but the chick is naun and she's mad and pissed because of the report hajin

wrote under her profile however from his reaction it seems like the author is unaware of this report naun isn't in the mood to play with his and explains that only he could write such a terrible report on her turns out hajin did in fact write the report and did it because he wanted to help her an infuriated naun hounds him For constantly reminding her that archery isn't suitable for her the cadets all around them observe the scene as naun presents him with a bet surprisingly hajin accepts the BET his conditions are simple if she loses

the BET then she isn't ever allowed to pick up the bow again the stakes get on her nerves as her blood boils just to prove him wrong hajin emphasizes that he'll use a bow just to prove his point but in exchange he needs some training to Equalize the BET nun thinks any amount of training he goes through won't be enough to save him from the bet she walks away believing that she'll win this stupid bet while Hayne reflects that he's achieved a proficiency of level seven when it comes to to his Sharpshooter skill that means

if he raises his level a little higher he's basically going to curb stomp her in this challenge to top it off his luck stat will help him too the author Believes that nun's current struggle is avoiding the harsh reality she thinks her skill with a bow and a sword is equal when they're not at the same time hajin knows that praising someone won't improve their skills and the only way to get better is to get stronger at whatever you want to achieve the scene cuts to room 303 of the Grace Hall where the travel club's

president h hun is giving an announcement following the conclusion of the midterms hajin is Spacing out in his thoughts recalling how the study and hunting club were both suspended after being related to fish incidents the current events of the story are also advancing at a slower less significant Pace than they were in the original story this is reassuring since hajin now knows which storyline to focus on Han Hun's announcement continues as he announces the club's next destination they're going to go France and this same event will involve The gruesome murder of the Paris millionaire adding

another twist to the story hodgin explains how it initially started with a death threat he received from a dangerous group of Assassins they told him the exact time and date of his planned assassination the person who received the letter was a man named Videl known for his kind heart the man doesn't blow his money and lives a normal life but that's exactly where the twist happens he wasn't what he appeared To be deep down Fidel is actually called vervet and he's invested in a criminal Secret Life known to be the worst of the worst this

man actually Rose to riches by manipulating and frauding people with his schemes typical Crypt bro Behavior anyway he ended up escaping the consequences for his actions but he could only Escape for so long until even his Trails were exposed he couldn't go to the police for help and didn't have enough time to hire a protection group For his security after all they would need to be strong enough to defeat assassins the fear of death began creeping up on him just when everything seemed like a grim ending for him he found away vle ends up getting

his hands on this unique method which became possible thanks to the cube students journeying to Paris in the original story hanuk struggled with finding a suitable space for the cadets to stay while they were discussing this Fidel Sniped at the opportunity like a snake and kindly presented himself forward he invited the cadets to stay at his Manor large enough to fit every Cadet that's how the story followed well it was more of a plan to Shield himself from the Assassins since they would have to go up against the cadets just to kill him hajin computer

receives a message informing him about a new job offer he's excited to receive a message from his first client the boy explores the Contents of the job the client wants him to find a scammer who caused the downfall of their family they also attached relevant information for hajen to locate this person down hajin explores the information and finds himself rather surprised the scene ends there and we get a glimpse of the warehouse where a few members are rewatching horo fight against our boy one of them is thrilled to find the capabilities of anti-d demonic magic

Others are impressed by this year's freshman batch specifically hajin asking their Captain a question the woman mockingly asks why they're reviewing rookie fight all of a sudden while she's on the fence a different member vouches for the boy's Talent they also explored his background and learned that he doesn't have any connections to worry about they think hajin fixation must be materialistic and related to money so they're going to use their endless cash To make him join the group somehow one of them highlights their main objective which is to track down the Traer from their group

and punish them eventually he thinks Kim hajin will be a suitable candidate for the job assuming the idea that they're going to enlist him they face trouble assigning him a Color Spot the only color left is black which represents the strongest of the bunch and it's also the same color of the one who betrayed them one man decides to Step it up to claim the color himself it's the brute Maniac who killed the guard however the rest of him R down insults on the guy for being too much of a bonehead to claim such a

color this leaves them to cast a voting decision with the captain's opinion their Captain decides as much and requests the group to raise their hands if they want hajen to become part of their organization we see a total of eight people in favor of the decision and two against which means The outcome is one-sided in recruiting him the captain tosses her subordinate Jane a VIP party invite to Paris which is supposed to be the location of their next mission as the yellow member of the masked Syndicate Jane is ready to execute A thieving mission to

steal a ring the time for the France Tour is here hanun as the president confirms the attendance of the cadets and explains that they'll be drawing lots for teams before entering the portal as Yona is The first one to approach the box hajin is thinking how he's never really explored Europe in the real world but here in this world it's all possible if things go according to the storyline he intended then this chick will end up in suho's group Yana's hand reaches for the box as the scene cuts off we now see the beautiful Eiffel

Tower signaling that the cadets have stepped foot in Paris as for the teams everyone probably expected at least one twist and it's That naun ended up with our boy much to her anger she's busy harassing him while the citizens of France are glancing at the students of the reputable Academy turns out hanan's got a lover in France and they collectively make the rest of these losers jealous it's so hilarious how the entire trip to France was probably planned because the Dude wanted to see his girlfriend hanun introduces his girlfriend as well as the team doctor

for the trip Natasha pleasantly Introduces herself and greets the group with that settled it's time for the cadets to break off into their selected groups they can spend the day on their own but have to return for the party at night with naun and hajin paired with each other she asks what place he's interested in exploring since he's got no clue He suggests exploring some restaurants and finds it pretty surprising she's choosing to stick with him nun believes It's just the obvious since they're paired up while hajin remembers how his previous partner Yona just ditched

him without caring about the pairing anyway our boy being as preppy as always has made a list for them to navigate the place without getting lost all he asks from naun is to follow up with her she reminds him that she's got a picky pallet and won't be merciful they end up coming to a really fancy restaurant much to the shock of naun turns out hajin Already got his reservations ready as they take their table the girl is out here wondering how he landed a reservation in the first place the author chooses not to reveal

how but it's actually because he used the book of Truth for the menu hjin tells her that it's fine if she orders anything catching her off guard the boy already knows she's a picky eater paired with the fact she's from a rich family suddenly hajin spots a familiar presence And becomes startled enough to get up from his seat this dude was doing everything well but then he just raced off leaving the girl to herself sensing the danger of the situation hajin questions if this is yet another alteration from the storyline he rushes to approach a

couple and calls for their attention the glasses girl is Yun songa another main character who isn't supposed to pop up in Paris sua doesn't know what to say while hajin had to step On the gas just to catch up with her sua pretends not to know this guy even though hajin wants her to drop the act at this point the system offers another story alert as saa's boyfriend steps up for her hajin decides to back off and explores his laptop the system has given him a story modification alert regarding Jane and shunga forming their connection

to Paris while he's busy outside naun doesn't get what this dude is doing on his own hajin recalls that their first Encounter was in the headquarters of the Holy grace of God Guild both of them signed up as new recruits at the time shared missions with each other and even bore through difficult times together they were basically Inseparable best friends who always supported each other but then that image of friendship shattered as Jane decided to betray SAA in their duel SAA Was Defeated and begged for answers Jane the person who she took for her friend

ended up being a Sadistic person who just wanted to toy around with her her real identity was valerin the yellow member of the masked Syndicate she's a villain and the queen of Disguise and thievery right now Su seems to be Undercover on the hunt joran remarks how she looks annoyed she shares her relief because this moment is an opportunity for her to move on from her past joran doesn't want to trust the informant who told them about valin's eventual appearance at the party and While seunga is suspicious of the information she also knows Jane well

and knows that she's likely to come to steal something valuable after all how could she resist the Priceless ring of Homer valerin has the information about its keeping so she'll do whatever it takes to steal the object that's when sua is hoping to strike naun ate to her heart's content and with that settled hajen asks if she's ready to part ways with him now since she's got places of her own Interest to go and visit the truth is he's looking for a way to get himself alone to prepare a strategy for the party since she's

got no reason to stick with him she tries leaving but this conversation wouldn't be a conversation without hajin leaving a cheeky comment naon snaps at him as usual the scene transitions to the hour of the ball where we see suho and yanha getting all the views the people around them wonder if these two are supposed to be Celebrities of some kind yanha is glad they took measures with their disguise while the main protagonist finds it a little convenient to wear a tight suit Yana offers her hand to dance with him since it would be unusual

for them not to as this is going down we zoom out to see hajin who has arrived at 5:30 and has also confirmed the arrival of seunga so far there isn't anything unusual catching his interest the event is being held at an old Palace right in the Outskirts of the city hajin is here to make sure no drastic changes occur from the story using his Dead Eye ability a surprised hajin discovers a magic portal opening out of nowhere which isn't meant to happen now when it comes to portals like these only demonic humans are capable

of opening them what's even worse is that only powerful fiends are capable of opening these portals which means the threat they're dealing with isn't just Child's Play one of the People inside the hall is secretly acting as the fiend and maintaining the Portal's activation right then hajin receives a system notification this time it's a critique from the co-author to explain his reasoning behind the changes the mysterious co-author believes that an ultra rare item like the Ring of Homer should have a greater interest from the characters hunting for it for this reason a fish group called

The Fellowship of evil Deeds have taken Interest and intervened in the event learning this fact hajin remembers just how powerful the fish organization truly is their leader Kim hakio is a dangerous man they love Waging War and stealing valuable artifacts and they're involved in many of the conflicts in the world in other words our boy now has to deal with an entire evil organization all because the co-author decided for him activating his ether spell hajin seems to have covered his face with a mask and intends To stop this plan from happening scouting from above he

checks for Valor and Jane speaking of that woman she's currently choking the life of a waiter in secret maintaining her disguise she passes the authorization to the safe where the ring is being held the mission seems to be an easy success for her as the artifact is just inches away from her valerine attempts to snatch the ring when an apprehensive yet familiar voice calls out from behind turns out that Valerin is using Jordan's identity to do her Dirty Deeds she's surprised to encounter SAA at a place like this The Confident sua claims that she's out

here checking up on her assistant playing the part of a fool she steps forward and decides to hug him from behind valerin is losing her mind not knowing what's happening out here suddenly SAA tightens her grip and reminds valerin that she's not interested in being Fooled Again saying so this chick literally pulls a Suplex and pummels her body into the ground the explosive battle catches the attention of the outward Hall people thought a bomb went off just because of their fight valerin lunges past the smoke and transforms back to her original body she's actually impressed

by Sha's ability to see through her Flawless disguise SAA is in no mood to talk and speeds up to attack her she knows that joran went missing the moment they stepped into Paris and she could Tell by the difference in their speech pattern that valerin had already made her move impressed by her sharp eye valerin thinks it's only natural she's cautious because of the first time she was betrayed before SAA can attack her a whip catches her arm it's yanha and she wants them to stop wreaking havoc in the hall sua asks about their identity

since she doesn't know their Cube Cadets yanha breaks her disguise and instructs her to lower her weapon so they can avoid chaos But sa isn't planning on backing off her electrical energy destroys Yana's whip causing her literal shock that her weapon is no more SAA turns her attention to her opponent who quickly dashes in with a piercing strike thankfully she dodged it and began counterattacking with her sword the sheer power emerging from their strikes is blinding SAA is having a hard time keeping up with valerin but she eventually finds an opening of her own And

deflects her with her sword chipped and smashed valerin lays defenseless on the ground a bloodlusted SAA raises her sword aiming to finish her off for good but right as she's about to kill valerin suho intervenes and blocks her Blade with with his own valerin is sweating bullets out here realizing that she literally could have been killed just now shunga offers suho a polite warning to get out of her way unless he also wants to meet the same fate the hero Refuses to back off acknowledging that he's unaware of their reason to fight despite that suho's

strong sense of justice compels him to stop the two from fighting his words are useless against a provoked SAA who literally kicks him away but when she turns to valerin she is no longer there it was enough time for her to make her Escape sa rushes to catch her while she runs off suddenly a wave of black darkness comes in between the two with both of them left Astonished at the scene one fiend has managed to acquire the ring for herself the Ring of Homer is now in the hands of a demonic human who seems

to have the combined powers of a mermaid with tentacles observing the scene from outside is the author hajin let's break off from here and see what nayun is doing poor girl ended up getting lost just like our boy thought she would she's been struggling to navigate a damn map and ends up always coming back to The same location nun's pissed at her useless Smartwatch and suddenly realizes that her father is the CEO of the company who manufactures them girl instantly retracts her statement and decides to call yanha for help unfortunately she's unable to get in

touch with her making nayun even more frustrated revisiting the hall sua immediately recognizes the Demonic Human by its powers since she's also a powerful hero sua demands the creature Let go of the ring at once the Arrogant fiend persists in her act and states that she and her fellow demons are more deserving of the prized artifact hajin is still watching the scene waiting for things to escalate he collects his thoughts stating how the group of fiends have acquired the ring and what's worse is the fact that none of the heroes in the hall stand a

chance at retrieving the object assessing the need for a plan B hajin makes his move by releasing a Slime whip he launches it at full speed causing it to break the window and crash inside the fiend is alarmed and unexpectedly caught off guard hajin is safely able to recover the ring from her grasp while the demon looks around clueless as to what happened with her distracted SAA rushes in to make her move at full speed the fighting begins and has allowed hajin the opportunity to escape unnoticed while he's observing the ring hajin is suddenly attacked

out Of nowhere he barely escapes a giant explosion leaving a crater in the ground one man steps forward with an energy blade in his hand he's here to stop the Intruder from escaping with the ring hajin wasn't expecting another fiend to pop out of nowhere the man politely greets him and introduces himself as cidus he also shares his association with the fellowship of evil Deeds the talkative bastard is rather impressed by H's impressive ability to steal the ring Without trouble he doesn't care if hajin is quick witted and fast on his feet after all cidus

demands that he return the ring at once our boy declines making things annoying and complicated for the fiend so his second option is to steal the ring by force cyas prepares his lightsaber and lunges forth to attack he releases a dark red wave of magic which cuts through the landscape hajin barely made it alive without being turned to ashes this man is not to with he's Overpowered as hell cyas explains that his weapon is a MAG magic sword a really pricey object that cost him Millions so long as the person wielding it can supply it

with enough magic power the capabilities of this weapon are Limitless he offers hajin to Simply return the ring without getting himself needlessly hurt now here's the thing about demonic humans when they form a packed with demons their Mana Supply goes up by several magnitudes which Means the weapon he's holding is the perfect one for a fiend making them really hard to deal with hajin focus is on the magic sword and he's thinking of ways to somehow subdue the weapon first IUS confidently prepares another swing unleashing a wave of energy again hajin evades with his defensive

Maneuvers and he finds himself forced into a corner starting to feel the need to strike a conversation hajin tries his best to negotiate cidus almost doesn't want to Take him up on that offer since he's already turned down negotiations before he also taunts The Masked Warrior for thinking that he could best him by buying time cyas has sharply assessed his abilities and claims that hajin is much weaker than those Heroes inside the hall he's got nothing more than a gun and a skill to evade it's bewildering to the fiend that nobody like hajin has the

confidence to oppose a powerful fiend with his monologue over cyas prepares to Unleash a final sword strike hoping to end his opponent for good funnily enough the magic Fades into nothingness surprising both the fiend and our boy cyas doesn't get what happened with his weapon while hajin standing there speechless he offers an explanation the magic sword is now rendered useless for the rest of the day a fact that not even the fiend knew about what's crazy about this is that hajin passive luck factor intervened and because of that it Malfunctioned the magic sword of course

cyas thinks he's just mouthing things off like an idiot because he doesn't have the knowledge of hain's powers he's also confident that he'll Slaughter the human without a weapon but hajin is uncertain about that claim which seems to be an overestimation with the remaining stigma the author channels light magic and Alters the mode of his gun cidus charges full speed to blow hajin away with a single kick but right Before his attack could connect hjin releases his shot ending the fight the the scene transitions back to naun who is playing video games instead of searching

for the ball she sees a bunch of police cars patrolling by and wonders what's going on at this hour there's also the fact that literally no one is talking to her making her feel alienated nun is in a bitter mood and fails to understand why she's acting the way she does all of a sudden one boy decides to Take a seat next to her it's hajin who popped up right out of nowhere startling her he's in an injured State and barely capable of forming a sentence because of his previous battle the dude literally collapses before

her eyes giving her a shock naun worriedly asks if he's okay but the fatigued battleworn hajin is unconscious and incapable of responding in his dream Kim hajin experiences one of the events of his actual life he had just finished his csad exam during this Time his parents called for him and they were around for him he questioned why they risked their health to come for him suddenly their image begins wavering becoming hazy at the time the boy broke into tears apologizing for failing the exam badly his parents tried to comfort him understanding of his condition

they Embrace their son in a loving manner showing him support even in hardship remembering that touching memory hajin wakes up crying his eyes out heun's on a Bed but the question is where the worried suho and naun come over to check on his condition naun is annoyed she had to drag his ass all the way here because of his unconscious State she also notices his dried up eyes and taunts him for crying suho orders her to go outside while an assistant shows him support by bringing him apples she explains how his condition reflected exhaustion and

she wants to rest as much as he can hajin doesn't get why he's receiving all of This support or where he even is right now turns out he somehow ended up in the manor which means they've come in contact with Videl it's already late but hajin isn't hungry and refuses to join the others for dinner his mind is flooded with the thoughts of the assassination incident which is going to initiate its plan very soon hajin is glad that he's awake to see things happen in real time the maid requests naun to leave along with her

for the Night causing her to become upset suho bids them farewell and proceeds to peel Apple for hodin he's unsure if it's the right thing for our boy to get up so soon the author checks his Smartwatch and learns what was reported in the news thankfully the report states that no one was killed and most people suffered minor injuries at best however there's also no mention of valerin in the report which means she escaped without trouble hajin decides to share a conversation With suho requesting information about the fiend suho explains that he also isn't an

expert on knowing what happened the monster escaped before the heroes could defeat her hajin takes the Apple slice and eats it as suho is slicing the Apple for him hajin observes his injuries and advises the hero to take care of himself the author even sarcastically asserts that he's the protagonist of the story so it would be a real problem for him to get injured Hajin reflects how suho confronted sua without any hesitation and in response she was prepared to kill him because he got in her way it's the thankful timing of the fiend that saved

suho's life or else he would have suffered brutal injuries while hajin understands the hero's intentions and the path he is supposed to follow there's a problem and a major weakness because those who follow the good have to make difficult choices at the same time the author Reminisces his own thoughts he misses his parents and wants to return to his home world suho thinks the word protagonist means little to nothing in their world and if it was the case then he thinks hajin would be as much of a protagonist as he is in suho's optimistic and

bright worldview everyone is a protagonist speaking of which suho talks about the report that hajin wrote from his Anonymous account he noticed that he was going unnecessarily harsh on Nayun for seemingly no reason at all hajin begs to differ emphasizing that archery doesn't suit her Talent that's also the reason he made the bet with her if she loses she will never use a bow again suho offers his thoughts criticizing hajin approach for forcing his way with her into quitting hajin bounces back with a sharp response of his own questioning if it is the correct approach

to praise people up to no good after all praising them all of the time Doesn't make people any better or stronger there's also the chance that they'll ignore the advice making the process frustrating hajin questions if someone like suho would be okay with accepting responsibility in that case suho asks an obvious question inquiring the basis for hajin thoughts on nun's archery skills he wants to know if hajin is willing to take responsibility if she ends up on the incorrect path hajin explains that he's done research on her And studied her more than anyone else in

simple terms since he wrote the character himself he knows what her weaknesses are it is the reason he can see things Beyond suho's understanding suho doesn't really get what he means by that and here's a clamoring sound coming from from outside using his special eye he's able to tell that naun was actually eavesdropping in their conversation using the concealment skill her Precision was so sharp that they Couldn't detect her until now anyway naun bolts into Yonk room completely flustered and embarrassed she doesn't get what he is murmuring about Yana wakes up asking what's caught her

so troubled naun tries to play it safe and tells her it's nothing Yona returns to bed leaving naun to her own thoughts she's trying her best to calm down and maintain composure she also thinks neither suho nor were able to detect her just now still his careful selection of Words raced through her mind naun finds herself flustered when suddenly a loud scream wakes her up an extremely agitated Yona wakes up from her sleep a second time demanding naun to shut the heck up already poor girl tries to explain that she didn't even make any noise

this time both of them are quick to realize they just heard a real scream coming from outside the scene shifts to videl's maid who is utterly horrified to find the man murdered in Cold Blood the Assassins have done their work just as they promised every Cadet bursts out of their rooms to see what's going on suho is the fastest among them and descends down by himself hajin came outside too with a gun in hand and he's equally as shocked that this man jumped from the third floor suho dashes the fastest he can and slams open

the door there his eyes widen as he sees the sight of videl's bloodied body videl's maid is struck with horror and explains what Happened the rest of the cadets are also terrified to discover the horrifying truth due to an enormous amount of blood loss vettel's state is unbearable he's Beyond saving the butler is the first to point fingers at the cadetes believing that they're responsible for murdering their beloved master of course his frustrations are understandable so the cadetes just listen without responding the maid plans to call the police and an ambulance to sort things out

requesting The cadetes to return to their rooms for the night but right then hajin pops open the light switch because he already knows what happened the rest of them are confused as to why he would turn the lights on so suddenly without responding he walks up to videl's body while the assistant shouts at him for interrup in the scene of the crime she demands that he leave at once but hajin isn't in the mood to around and pulls up his Glock on her neck suho and the others Are actually stunned even naun thinks this guy

has finally lost it hajin finally speaks calling the maid Natasha a liar hajin explains that Videl isn't even dead to begin with after all even in the original story The Villain vervet didn't die here his plan was to fake his death and eventually form a packed with fiends rooting himself in a more Sinister group than ever before since his fate is in the hands of the co- author editing the story hajin doesn't Know what this guy will end up doing in the future that's why he wants to ensure he goes down here and now for

good hajin has the entire room silent and he completely understands that the act of persuasion especially in a setting like this is difficult to pull off his intervention may also create problems for him later down the line but the reason he acted in this manner is because of suho's influence hajin wants to believe it in his heart that he's Just as important of a protagonist as the other main characters he also thinks there's no point blaming himself for twisting the story when it has already received so many edits anyway hajin is bent on his ruling

that Videl is still alive and claims that it's just a gimmick these guys are pulling off by putting him in a state of suspended animation to counter his ridiculous claims Natasha uses her Authority as a doctor to shut him down however our boy Is already a step ahead of her and explains his reasoning his first area of interest is the wound which shouldn't have been possible to inflict onto someone from above there's also the fact that this man is practically leaking rivers of blood which also shouldn't be possible since the human body only has so

much but perhaps the most conclusive evidence of it all as hajin Taps on his Smartwatch reveals that videl's identity is listed on the international Wanted List under the name swindler vervet he accuses Videl to be the same person which is why they're doing so much Natasha asks the Butler and wants to know if the ambulance is on its way after learning that it is she still tries to downplay hajin claims and prefers leaving this matter into the hands of the experts she concludes the discussion when all of a a sudden hajin decides to take things

one step even further ahead this man takes out his gun And points it at the supposed corpse shocking Natasha she worriedly turns to him questioning why he's pointing a gun at the dead man even the rest of the cadets think he's taking things too far at this point and should stop however this guy is ruthless in his stand and emphasizes that he'll pull the trigger on the count of three which would be enough to prove whether or not the man is Dead hajin countdown begins with Natasha losing her mind she begs for the Rest of

the cadetes to stop this psychopath from aiming at a corpse however hajin countdown doesn't stop as he presses the gun against the man's head preparing to deal the shot Natasha inquires why he's so desperate to prove things when the authorities are on their way at last the boy reaches his third count and by this point Natasha has a mental breakdown because she can see it in his eyes that hajin isn't going to around he will actually shoot Videl She attempts to sacrifice her own life by leaping ahead and covering Videl begging for him to stop

finally Natasha confesses that this man is actually her father father and she doesn't want anyone killing him well that gives away her Muse because now everyone knows what's up the butler is suddenly startled by a gunshot hajin declares that they need the help of Heroes instead of the police right now after all they've just confirmed and caught a Wanted criminal in the manor the authorities eventually arrive and arrest Natasha while retrieving her father's body the supposed murder was in reality a scheme played by the father and daughter Duo knowing that everyone was searching for him

across Europe due to his snide reputation they wanted to help Videl Escape ape investigations by faking his death they also wanted to use the testimony of the gullible Cube Cadets to make sure their case was solid And convincing the plan was to use the Revival technique right after putting him in suspended animation fun fact the drug for putting someone in the state of Animation is not that costly so Natasha who had a background working for the institution was able to acquire it with little to no trouble on her hands beyond that it was a piece

of cake she made an illusion of a chest wound using the illusory magic of an outlaw Mage she also used a bunch of transfusion blood Packs to make the blood more convincing now the First Responders coming to the scene wouldn't really know what's going on they just assumed the man was assassinated somehow the same goes for the police authorities who were secretly paid to be on their side during the retrieval of the body they would replace it with a fake one and escape the investigation after that the cube Cadets laid out their own testimony from

what they saw strengthening vel's case after All it's very hard to oppose the reputation of a cube Cadet beyond that Videl would be classified as someone officially dead allowing him to continue his life of crime under another secret identity well that was the idea in the original storyline at least which won't happen anymore using the book of Truth the boy learns that Videl is being apprehended by the hero Association in France it's safe to say that he's cooked and never coming back hajin hums a tune Satisfied with his inquiry and actually giving the institution a

positive name in the media yanha comes around impressed by his deductive capabilities and calls him Sherlock for being able to figure out so many things she even recommends that he he start his own detective agency as a joke the real question bothering her is the fact that hajin seems to know about criminals a little too well to make up an excuse he chalks it down to his family's history Speaking of History the author doesn't even know about Kim Chong's actual backstory since it's a character he didn't even write in the novel let's take it to

the headquarters of the fish group Sison reports her failure to successfully retrieve the Ring of Homer due to the intervention of a Masked Warrior she's even more shocked that this Warrior was capable of defeating cyas the leader of the group wants to know if this person was also a fiend by Chance but Sison is dead certain that he wasn't a friend nor a hero with those possibilities narrowed down he wants her to investigate the mercenary and Hunter groups to connect the dots since he's dangerous he reminds her not to track him on her own and

prioritize informing him instead the leader of the fellowship of evil Deeds is extremely annoyed that Sison openly advertises herself as a fiend as if she's proud of the fact she tries to feain ignorance but he knows Her well he Roars at her for not keeping her ident as a fiend a secret from the rest she apologizes for her act and shifts her appearance into a human form allowing her to blend in with the others the leader wants her to investigate The Masked Warrior and asks about the magic sword that cidus lost Sison isn't exactly thrilled

to reveal that they've lost the magic sword speaking of that light saber it's resting in the author's hands but he's yet to understand what He's going to do with it he doesn't really have a Proficiency in Magic and can only reliably use the stigma magic it's basically a useless weapon all in all and while selling it seems profitable it would be a waste of a weapon inspecting the extremely rare ring of Homer hajin reflects that unlocking the real capabilities of the Ring requires someone to penetrate it with a large amount of magic however for his

case he can Swindle past that Barrier with ease just by spending a bunch of his story points he could alter the properties and awaken it manually with the purchase confirmed the artifact gleams and shatters to become a silver ring its abilities include increasing the IQ of the user as a passive skill every day it also amplifies magic to some effect hajin is proud that he can use it safely and even trade it later if he doesn't want it in his mind he's thinking about giving it to suho or naun Who would be far more capable

of realizing its effects there's the fact that nayun is exceptionally advanced in Magic without her knowledge so she may be more suitable of the two curious about his personal stats he checks the system and learns that he hasn't experienced much change Beyond agility and sensitivity it's starting to feel like hajin abilities are stagnating since there's only so much growth he can go through through however he's Confident in his tenacity to work hard and overcome the wall while pondering the question he wonders if he can face the bratty nayun in his current state which reminds him

to investigate chund Dong's personal history after all he's certain the co-author left some clues for him accounting for the fact that chundong ended up in the institution despite being an extra character he's still classified as an exceptional Cadet who has promised to become a hero Someday with that consideration there's just no way he had normal parents for the investigation he decides to hire Eugene huk an expert PeopleFinder and background investigator this guy is at the top of his league in his field and his extremely high fee reflects his skills but since hajin doesn't really have

any other options he thinks he should hire the guy suddenly a bolt of realization hits our boy he has emptied his bank account by investing all of his Portions of money in stocks leaving him broke suddenly his eyes glance towards the seed he's been nurturing he tends to its daily feeding and the scene ends there next we see Yan's view who seems to be phoning jinuk likely to investigate hajin background Norway's chilly winter is here and you might be wondering why we're here of all places the author doesn't want to get into the nitty-gritty details

and instead gets his face bashed with a snowball it's the Pesky brat naun again with her precise aim hajin delves into his summary reflecting how Club activities resumed after the short break caused by the fish Sven incident the hunting club decided it was best to go on a reunion event by renting a cabin in Norway the senior Cadet decides to explain the contents of the event numbered flag have been placed throughout the forest and acquiring them rewards the finder with a gift ranging from all sorts of valuable Goods the Cadetes are inspired to look for

the flags because of the promised rewards like always it's time to draw lots for team Arrangement like always rotten luck finds naun and she annoyingly ends up with Kim hajin at this point she's convinced he's rigging the outcome to with her mood pissed off she demands that he doesn't slow her Pace while hajin politely warns her about the boore Trap she's about to step into poor girl gets caught in the Trap much to his Amusement and anyway naun is a little surprised hajin isn't wearing heavier coats to cover himself the cadet explains that his jacket

is functional enough to survive the coat what she doesn't know is the fact that he's using a special Relic called The Royal coat jacket allowing the user to manipulate the temperature at will this coat was actually Rachel's happy gift to him for the midterms she's just a sweet angel in his eyes funnily he thinks he should Have written Kinder characters in the story just like her a curious naun points to the flag just up ahead hajin confirms the number with his eyes declaring it to be number one still he doesn't get why it's placed up

so high naun doesn't really give a damn about climbing and starts leaping up like a monkey the author gathers something from his pocket and finds a blade attached to a bunch of wires naun finds them ordinary and doesn't get his initiative However the author reflects that these wires have been particularly strengthened by the stigma magic making them powerfully unique he throws the blade aiming near the flag believing that its initial trajectory doesn't really matter after all he can manipulate it with his magic the knife ends up hitting its Target at the base releasing the flag

from the top nauan is pleasantly surprised that his gamble worked the flag pops down in front of The boy who reaches out for it to inspect the prize while an excited naun comes running hajin reads the note and learns that they've stumbled upon first place turns out it's sua's actual phone number while it seems like an amazing prize to naun Bro is looking depressed and tells her to just take it she yaps about her status as the vice Guild Master of an elite Guild but that doesn't matter and hajin isn't looking for for her contact

since he already has It this unintentional display of kindness makes her flustered she tries to return it claiming that she did nothing to earn the prize hajin is okay with that and recommends they return to the cabin the scene shifts to yanha who remembers her inquiry to hajin and his response she's got a puzzled look on her face trying to create an association on how vettle could have ended up in hajin head after all he's a European criminal so there's no way for them to know each Other so her second assessment is that he may

have memorized faces of wanted criminals but but that doesn't make much sense either her main hypothesis stemming from all of this is that yanha believes hajin has had a tragic past in his life and because of that he's probably finding the person responsible for making him suffer that's why he memorized the criminals Wanted list there's the fact that he's an orphan too which makes her wonder if his parents May have been assassinated in secret it makes sense to her that he would memorize the faces of criminals and keep his true Powers hidden from everyone Jana

believes his true objective is to keep a low profile hunt the criminal and eventually deal them the killing blow but despite her contemplation her thoughts are nothing more than a theory and his past is still etched in mystery however if it's truly the case then yanha thinks she can turn that into an Opportunity for herself to one day recruit him in her Guild all that strategy dumping makes her feel depressed because she secretly hates calling Jin huk the scene shifts to jinuk's office who picks up a ringing phone call for his agency but when he

hears Yana's voice he's surprised and wonders why she's calling her uncle all of a sudden she makes things simple and states that she's got a job opportunity for him to track Kim hajin a 17-year-old Cube Cadet she wants everything there is to know about his past in trusting His Brilliant detective capabilities yanha thinks he's the only person who can confidently execute this job the students are shocked that hajin was capable of finding the number one flag as well as the fourth coincidentally the fourth flag's prize is somewhat more useful as it's a VR headset rather

than a chicks number anyway the group enjoys their stay at the cabin food is Top-notch and hajin helping prepare it for others this way he's actually gaining a positive image of himself much different from the rumors that others presented about him at the beginning hajin remembers his aunt having her personal barbecue place which is why he's Adept with handling a grill the students discuss the end of the semester talking about how one shouldn't trust anyone during the finals because of the Difficulty of the exam what's worse than the difficulty is that it causes a lot

of conflicts between friendships finals week is critical to a student's grade after all a bunch of them bring up the remedial unit drawing hajin attention this unit is just like its name implies a class full of cadets who became failures and couldn't Advance there's actually a scale of 200 students in that class 20 of these people have decided to make deals with demons and have become Fiends all in the name of passing their grades that's also the reason this year's finals could prove to be Troublesome there's the lingering issue of the co-author manipulating the events

of the story causing the remedial unit to become larger it would also be the reflection of the institution's current state which is in crisis one student shares her compliments to hajin who seems to be cooking pork belly to Perfection she even offers him to join Them while they eat but hajin is okay with eating on his own he also thinks it's rather strange of her to chat him up over grilled meat it makes him wonder if it's really that good with the cadets finishing their meals it's time to rest and relax in the lodging nun's

group bullies her thanks to hajin messing around after the meal he enjoys the moment remembering how it's been a long time since he laughed like that receiving a sudden system notification The author learns that his client is searching for the scammer jome Miller hajin thinks it might have something to do with vervet just to make sure he activates the book of Truth and requests a bunch of inquiries the author learns everything there is to know about Jerome Miller and it's so much information that it's hurting his head a typical experience while using the book of

Truth punching keys on his laptop he files the report and receives 5 million points for The information he shared easy money for him as he closes the laptop shut enjoying the beautiful view of the Aurora habitually Kim hajin picked up a habit of smoking in his real life during Times Like These he remembers his smoking addiction for nearly half a decade and yet ever since he jumped into this world he's forgotten about it completely naun silently observes him and is shocked to pick up on that detail hajin is startled to find her spying on Him

but it turns out naun had just arrived she's a little underwhelmed he had a smoking habit and even thinks he must have had a terrible background in high school bro is getting hammered with accusations and tries to deflect them naun Towers over him and decides to ask an important question she wants to know if hajin can truly best her the author wants to know if she's prepared to leave her bow for good as part of the bet with a sad look on her face naun thinks There's nothing to worry about because she's going to win

anyway but it's clear from her body language she's uncomfortable and might actually cry if she loses just like in the game earlier she changes topics and shares the recent news shared in France this guy is getting called the Korean Sherlock Holmes for solving the case of the wanted criminal vervet instead of being impressed she thinks it's an insult to compare a lousy smoker to Sherlock hajin Thinks she's just bullying him at this point naun bolts off in her typical style being childish and Petty as always but before leaving she stops to ask him what cigarettes

taste like hajin response isn't shown as the scene ends there let's explore the detective side of things Jin huk is playing his part investigating Kim hjin background he's using concealment to mask his presence and growing impatient suddenly he sees a covered figure placing a baby near an Orphanage this person's identity is also a mystery and before Jin huk is able to together more information the illusion melts into nothingness he's getting increasingly puzzled about Kim hajin identity approaching his assistant's room Jin huk makes his return he's still got no clue about the case he's also got

his priorities straight and wants to attend Nature's call before splitting the details so Kim hajin grew up in an orphanage thanks to the detective's Powers he was able to revisit the past on the day hajin was admitted in order to look at the person's identity however it seemed to be a child who brought the baby out of nowhere nothing more Jin huk couldn't really connect more dots because he sensed strong interference the only way he'll be able to explore further is by maintaining full strength for a long time also dude is literally while he's thinking

about these details he wants to tell yanha but Almost feels ripped off doing something for free his cheeky assistant peaks in with an interesting Revelation one other person wanted a report on hajin and they could use the same information as a cash grab this person is actually a violet hay website user ranked just the same as jinhu himself he reads the W which is straight to the point without any fluff they're willing to give up 100 million points as an advanced fee and 500 in additional job completion that's a lot Of money for one guy

with so much money involved Jin huk has a rough idea of who commissioned them it's definitely the criminal group The Masked Syndicate Jin huk is starting to believe that this kid really might be special for being investigated so thoroughly it's Friday's class and the instructor announces the approaching final exams in one month one part of the exam will be a practical portion even tougher than the midterms the exam will Encompass the use of the Various hero skills the cadets have been learning over the course of the semester the midterm sparked Joy from the cadets but

hajin explains that the finals won't really have any Spectators viewing the matches the test location is also designed to be on a remote island teaming with dangerous monsters requiring a week of survival without a doubt hajin just knows the co-author will make his life a living hell in this case with his numerous edits still even Without the edits there's a bunch of problems that are going to surface hudin wants to stay sharp to avoid getting being caught in them the instructor refuses to delve into the details of the test but emphasizes that this time the

testing grounds won't receive any outside interruptions many highlevel Heroes have made sure to avoid such a thing so all the cadets have to focus on are the exams with that the cadets are told to be dismissed for the day our boy Is preparing his stuff when naun comes reminding him about their bet hajin loves annoying her so he reminds her she'll be losing her bow soon in response she wants to wipe the floor with him in the fight it's finally time for their one-on-one they head over to the Archery Center where both Cadets prepare to

compete hajin is rather surprised she brought a crew along just to observe the outcome Jong Haw suho and the class rep are stoked to see them Brawl yungun acts like there's no bad blood between him and hajin especially with the hiccups they had in the past Jong Hawk straight up yinks him by the hair clearly offended that hajin told naun to give up her bow so in return he wants hajin to leave the institution naun isn't very crowd loving and kicks them all away to start their match the game is called target shooting there's a

trap thrower up ahead launching a bunch of targets for both of them to shoot Down naon recommends they start at 100 met the range will increase by 50 m each time a Target is hit with that settled she thinks he must be pretty scared and intimidated by now however hajin is as cool as a cucumber because he was expecting the challenge to be a little more difficult naon is ready to break his confidence both archers get into position naon activates the Trap thrower releasing discs of targets up in the air naun releases her bow smashing

through The Target with her perfect aim she's pretty convinced he can't do any better 100 m is nothing to this girl she's also surprised he didn't shoot anything turns out this lousy idiot wasn't expecting the discs to come out so fast so he didn't even release his Arrow hearing this naun and the rest of the crowd is stumped they all collectively break into a loud laughter taking him for a joke interestingly instead of picking on him she's annoyed by their annoying chatter She also thinks hajin stance is way over the place since she's convinced none

of his attempts will matter she lets have a second try hajin gets into position and pulls the string it's true that nun has the better form of the two but that's not the important thing in this competition hajin isn't the type to play by the rules in every situation as there's plenty of things beyond the fundamentals of a sport the deciding factor between the weak and the strong Are one's abilities and haj's Powers aren't a joke at last the Trap thrower releases discs prompting hajin to release the arrow with the aid of his Marksman ability

a perfect hit smashing through the disc hajin raw skill has utterly baffled nun and the rest of the naysayers now that he's ready to rumble he requests for round two let's explore the girl's background a little see nun was often looked up to by others when she was a Stern disciple at the time she Made an awful request to transition into archery instead of using her sword it was clearly related to her mother but she tried to feel like it wasn't pretending that she would be okay no matter what weapon she utilizes she returned the

magic sword and apologized to her master provoking the renowned hero he thought of it as her decision to ultimately make and decid decided to confirm one last time if this was the right thing she wanted to do after all It might cause her a great deal of regret back to the match various discs are getting smashed one after the other with hajin and naun competing equally it's actually strange to others seeing him match her skill they've already progressed to 400 m too one of the cadets explains that this guy is not only just hanging he's

actually trying to pressurize naun on psychological Battlegrounds the pressure is slowly building up inside her head adding to Hjin impressive tactic at this point they're shocked to accept the reality in which hajin may come out as a Victor Jong hack's shitty face is enough to tell you that he's mad and pissed he wants her to win unfortunately nun's recent shot is imperfect and doesn't hit a bullseye hajin times this as the perfect moment to remind her that she's not suited for archery naona is annoyed and tells him to just take his shot observing her personality

the author Internalizes how she isn't a calm and collected type of person she's easy to provoke and this kind of personality is one deciding factor why ranged weapons shouldn't be her thing and yet she became an Archer hajin doubles down on her fears calling her afraid and getting inside her head this time she's actually pissed for real blazingly reminding him that he should shut his damn mouth but it's not like he's backing down in fact it's the only right answer to him as There's no reason to defend her choice everything she has said so far

has been nothing more than just hubris she made for herself nun's composure is fading and she Quivers to hold her bow once again reminding him that he should shut up hajin breaks her by reminding naun that good isn't great and that she'll never be able to defeat a fiend on her own or avenge her family now this was the kicker as naun releases her shot at the flying disc the arrow completely Misses the mark much to the shock of everyone including Yung Hawk she herself is stunned at how she missed that in the end nayun

was defeated in a competition That was supposed to favor her after the match Yona finds naun sitting by herself and sulking considering her friend she wants to know what happened naun only remembers one thing from their fight it's the fact that he insolently brought up her family he disregarded how it would make her feel and hurt her Feelings deeply she feels betrayed for trusting him even though she knew he wasn't the nicest person around she thinks he's an who refuses to give up on her Yono wonders just what hajin is scheming to plot with his

behavior knowing that she wants to scout both hajin and nayun in the future Yana feels the sudden urgency to help them maintain their behavior so with a heavy heart instead of supporting nayun she talks about hajin life as an orphan she Also thinks he shares a similar life in background to naun who lost her mother this shifts everything for her Jana thinks that while she's putting out an assumption it's possible he sees her as someone important someone he wants to teach important lessons hoping she lives a better life coming to this realization nun's eyes gleam

while Yona decides it's best to leave her be for now with naun left to herself the girl remembers the decision she made in her childhood Claiming that swords were boring to her at the time her brother was there to support her decision believing that she was capable of achieving great things however he wanted her to make One Last Promise he wanted her to reconsider her choice when the time was right which means that he also believed his sister was more suited for a sword remembering that promise nayun feels some level of conviction now as for

the author he's improved his story points massively Thanks to his influence in her life by the end we see nun's confident stride to A New Beginning revisiting the detective we come to find that hajin life shares a connection to Crime that's what he tells his niece and requests if it's better to leave the investigation here yanha wants him to persist in his investigation and claims that she's hellbent on recruiting hajin into her Guild this makes him beaming with happiness jinuk is prepared to do double the effort for the cause Following the match with naun things

got complicated because of the many people watching the match this time hain's afraid of what's going to happen once he enters his classroom he even contemplates skipping and suddenly finds an unexpected early arrival it's naun practicing with her sword her hair now cut short she's surprised to see him and embarrassingly hides the weapon not like it would make any difference hajin asks if she's practicing and glances at her Hair naan demands that he speak his mind hajin taunts her for going overboard and cutting her hair because he stepped on her nerves enraged she excuses that

she did it for the Summer's heat hjin forms a genuine smile and Praises her looks asking if she's feeling good naun agrees so hajin leaves her to her business and decides to go about his own training she remembers the fact that Kim hajin was supposed to be a sword user when he entered the academy he threw away an Entire life's worth of experience risking it on a different weapon the same same as she is doing right now she wonders why he chose to do that nun's magic sword blazes with her powers amazing herself with her

reach his comments now seem like heartfelt advice to her she is now convinced that hajin knew better for her ever since the start speaking of our boy he's busy making a bunch of purchases right now right before final start an inspection will be Carried out on all of the cadets to check their gear and weapons he's taking care of the camping stuff for the island the seed disturbs hajin with its request to feed her hajin inspects its size and realiz IES that it has grown in size so hatching should also be around the corner she's

supposed to look like the typical four-year-old straight out of birth he thinks it should be all right to keep her hidden inside the dorm as long as she transforms her appearance Inspecting the seed it enjoys hajin Embrace and he hopes for it to hatch soon now let's head to the masked syndicates meeting valerin is shocked that their leader is taking extra steps to transform her appearance into a Cadet just so that she could observe what's going on in the finals she requires Jane's help who still doesn't think it's necessary for her to go over board

the captain explains that her objective is to verify someone's skills as well as Retrieve something from the testing grounds valerin has no choice but to obey so she casts her magic and transforms her appearance she's already prepared documents of the cadet she'll be impersonating it's important for her to follow the cadet's personality to blend in valerin feels worried for her which is out of character for someone so careless the boss reassures her that nothing will go wrong back in the classroom Ean is being teased by her Classmates she's got an expressionless face which definitely doesn't

doesn't suit the average student she tries to play around with ean's friends just like valerin advised all of a sudden Kim hajin brats into the scene right when she's delivering an Oscar worthy acting performance the funniest part is that this dude is literally dying inside because he can see right through her disguise using his observation skill even the boss knows that he has figured It out bro tries to hurry the away and takes his seat he's demolished and can't figure out what is going on there's no plausible reason for the captain of the masked Syndicate

to be here anyway the written exams wrapped up quickly which means it is time for the Practical exam the cadets are on board a ship as their transport hajin is eyeing down Ean with Keen Precision knowing that it's the captain in secret he originally thought she wouldn't make an Appearance again but she broke the pattern from the original story and came anyway just to make sure things proceed smoothly he's got his eye on her he once tried talking to her but received nothing apart from a beverage he wonders if this is related to her investigation

on suho and Jong Haw the instructor demands the cadet's attention and EXP explains the rules for their exam they'll have to survive up to 5 days on the island and try to score points as Much as they can their goal is to beat monsters or steal points from other Cadets and it's also possible to purchase and sell points the ones who are hoping to get an excellent score are encouraged to try and steal a supervisor name tag earning them 200 points sounds like easy money but hajin reflects that it's impossible to try and challenge the

hero supervisors the exam is about to begin with the ship nearly arriving on the island having arrived at the shore The cadets come through hajin finds Rachel immediately and requests that they complete the final exam together she's surprised by his sudden invitation but when it comes to the characters he created hajin is trying to take measures in the best way possible to counter any edits from the co-author there's the looming threat of a powerful villain Mage who is trying to hunt her down so hajen believes she's the one who is at most risk in the

exam which is why he Wants to protect her surprisingly even this polite girl knows when to reject someone the author isn't surprised that this happened since to prankers prefer going about their business by themselves so for that reason he wants to exchange his location information just to be safe he's definitely not in any mood to follow the storyline set by the co-author Rachel receives his location and doesn't think much about it that night on the island one student is Carefully treading by herself it's naun who comes to a stop as a monster leaps to attack

her from behind there's not just one but a bunch of these ugly bastards releasing her magnificent magic sword she slices them clean effortlessly the fight has ended naun Giggles in annoyance because she's fed up with constantly fighting monsters Without End there's just no end in sight no place to rest or eat and recover judging by her exhausted condition she's afraid she'll Be the first one to lose a beam of light in the distance catches her attention filled with hope she excitedly runs in that direction she knows that someone is cooking some delicious food and thinks

she's saved that is until the girl runs into hajin who had brought his essential camping equipment and prepared for everything beforehand nun's excitement died while hajin is a little surprised she came to visit and reminds her they're not supposed to fight so soon She's shocked that he was able to get all of this gear but to the author it was just the obvious thing to do naun pretends not to care but her rumbling tummy exposes her instantly hajin guesses that she must have acquired at least 25 points he's happy to share the food so long

as she exchanges the amount naun is startled by his high demands but it's not like she has a choice in the matter for being hungry the author prepares some bacon for her and that's How instead of meeting with Rachel this guy ended up with aun who is happily chewing on her food he's fidgeting with his laptop and just finished hacking the Drone servers this helps him see all of the footage of every Cadet across the island it helps him keep an eye on Rachel too since she's doing okay hajin wonders if there aren't going to

be any changes this time seems like Rachel found a Cadet group and requested to purchase food from them one of them Suspiciously told her that they don't want to charge her but it's clear by his arrogant smile that he's hiding something it's early and hajin is already up to get started for the day he spots the sky and wers if it's supposed to be a polar night since the sun hasn't come up yet naun also slept right next to him and she's still out cold as for the little seed hajin realizes that it's her feeding

time and tends to her he finds her extremely cute for being a Tiny little thing hajin reaches for his pocket and places the seed inside he asks naun if she wants to get up or not but she hasn't responded yet despite his statement about packing up the tent hajin thinks it's best for him to leave after packing up his stuff this is the part where Cadets begin fighting each other which also means it would be best for him to eliminate the best Cadets to make it easier for him murdering isn't an option but the cadets

he suspected to Be fiends haven't really shown their true colors to become demonic humans so far there's one difference between fiends who have sold off their souls to other fiends and then those who have sold their souls to Demons fiends relying on other fiends can be sacrificed and they can also help recharge each other's Mana to prevent immediate transformation their contracts are comparably lighter with each other as for the fiends who have directly sold Their souls to the demons they have strict limitations as well as problematic side effects only one Cadet comes to mind and

that's ju yohon hajin prepares his luggage and believes he should search for High Ground to get a strategic Advantage his first destination will be the world tree right at the dead center of the island sensing the urge to act quickly he bolts off leaving nayun unattended we see her still sleeping soundly even after he Left as hajin is making his way through the island one Cadet working with Yona has located their target she asks permission to strike this person down but Yona strongly opposes her decision and explains that they won't be hurting hajen at any

cost during the competition it doesn't make any sense to her teammate since hajin ranking is at the dead end of the bottom rankers at Cube however yanha knows what he's capable of and thinks that they would be unable to Defeat this guy even if they challenged him the author approaches the world tree and descends to prepare for something Rose doesn't get what he's doing by assuming such a position and wonders if this Maniac is going to start leaping the world tree at this point preparing himself hajin defies expectations and does exactly that with his incredible

agility he Maneuvers past the world tree bouncing with extreme agility it leaves Rose Completely winded while yanha uses this as an example of why they shouldn't be attacking this guy she reminds rose that his rank is just a false assessment of his true powers in fact he's so sharp that he'll detect her arrows without even having to look at where they're coming from say requests Rose to keep this information a secret because she wants to Value hajin privacy with her future goals in mind Rose understands and decides to keep the secret while Yona receives a

notification on her Smartwatch alerting her about Eun she decides it's best for them to head back now hajin is still navigating his way through the world tree he activates his special eye ability to get a good view of the cadets lurking nearby one particular candidate stands out to be a noticeable issue hajin is locked in and has discovered one of the fiends he thinks it's the easiest job in the world because now he just needs a stick to Attach directions and imprint a certain message on top with his preparations finished hyene swings the stick at

full speed and manipulates its trajectory using stigma magic the stick is aimed right for his Target and approaching him full speed the fiend seems to be unaware until the stick hits the ground just nearby surprised the cadet picks up the stick to inspect what's going on then he Scouts the direction it came from to see where the person could be hiding his Immediate suspicion is the world tree where hajin is sharply staring him down the final aspect of his plan is to patiently wait as things unfold on their own let's go back to the sleeping

naun this girl is treating this competition way too lightly until she wakes up in a jolt she wakes up to the thought of hajin words making her feel embarrassed like a donut in love it turns out that hajin said those words right before leaving her naun knows that people have Always found her looks noteworthy but the fact that he said those words while she was sleeping bothers her the funny part is hajin was actually talking about the damn seed and naun is out here thinking this guy was either talking about her or a pet or

even himself still the possibility of him actually saying those words to her makes her feel embarrassed as hell she doesn't know what to do in that situation let's go back to our boy who doesn't know what he Just did though he is getting the feeling that someone is mouthing off about him in the distance the onset of the morning has awoken the rest of the cadets who are making their way among Rachel's group she's worried because of what happened the previous night she joined jun's group and they didn't even ask for any form of payment

from her they were being overly helpful which is exactly the kind of thing that troubles her her intuition about them senses that There's something wrong the rest of the cadets are prioritized ing splitting up and hunting for points however yun's group in particular isn't focused on doing that they really don't care about the points what really troubles Rachel is that she can sense their deep interest in her realizing that there's definitely a problem with this group she prefers backing away wondering if it's best to rejoin hajin but right then Yun addresses her and explains that

he found A monster worth 10 points he wants her help in taking it down Rachel doesn't think much of it and decides that she'll leave them after the hunt she follows him along but for some reason the the rest aren't following making her feel uncertain about her Escape arriving at the monster's location Yun points out the Big Bear he was talking about well instead of a bear it's a masked assassin who looks like he's literally Out For Blood Yun acts like he doesn't know this Guy at all but Rachel senses trouble she quickly shoves him

out of the way dodging the lethal attack aimed for the both of them thankfully they survived the crushing blow but Rachel can't figure out what a fiend is doing all the way inside the island her first priority is to help Yun Escape so she tends to him this guy is making a fuss over a sharp cut he received even though it looks pretty damn tame in comparison to what Rachel has faced Yun literally Vanishes at the speed of light after realizing there's a fiend in sight Rachel knows that he was bullshitting with worse acting than

a YouTuber's apology still her only option is to confront the fiend so she points her weapon at him her suspicions proved her right even though she never expected Yun to sell her out to a fiend the Demonic human happily takes her on and sends a wave of sharp strikes Rachel evades them just in time but leaves herself open to Be attacked she blocks the fiend's attack just in time and realizes that she's facing someone incredibly powerful however this girl refuses to back down and believes she can take on the threat despite the odds Rachel's one-on-one

melee duel elapsed until she found an opening to strike him down her sword cuts the fiend but all of a sudden she senses Terror realizing that her own foot is caught in the ground this allows the fiend to Counterattack her right When she's immobile Rachel is fearing for her life because another fiend has popped up from behind she's exposed to both and admits that she's found herself incapable of dodging as the fiend confidently swings its attack a wave of light penetrates it and kills it immediately the second fiend tries to finish the job by sending

its wave of slashes at Rachel's Direction she can't avoid it so suho decides to make his entrance and slashes the attack down the Protagonist gives naun the signal to strike equipped with long-ranged weapons naun picks up the bow again and unleashes a powerful magic Arrow finishing the fiend her friends come rushing to her Aid claiming how these guys were anything but supervis ERS thankfully Rachel didn't receive any noticeable injuries suho observes that the fiend just now escaped the Arrow by jumping off the cliff since they're under the threat of being attacked again Suho requests they

team up with Rachel for the time being they decide to travel together as a group When Rachel is suddenly drawn to something close by she sees a buried bullet and wonders where it came from this makes her remember who took down the first fiend especially with a barrage of light focused attacks turns out it was our boy hajin just doing his work he's currently sniping the bastard yohon who ran off sharing a fireplace suho learns that nun has Transitioned into becoming a sword user of course she finds herself too embarrassed to admit the truth and

claims it's just a secondary weapon meanwhile the princess is still fixated on her suspicions about hajin no one other than him is capable of channeling a gun let alone a sniper rifle but it doesn't make sense how he was able to detect she was in danger or why he bothered to help then again she doesn't know why he would prefer hiding in that Situation her contemplation is interrupted by naun who had just offered to team up behind the scenes since she and suho are doing just that she thinks about it for a moment and decides

that it's best for her to leave the group despite suho's worry the princess explains that it's necessary that she sees someone at once likely referring to the person who helped her the author has gained 22 points in total from both naun and the Monsters he killed still he Requires at least 50 more points to make it out safely just like naun he's a little peeved with the amount of monsters he'll have to hunt in complete surprise one person comes to visit hajin out of nowhere it's the captain of the masked Syndicate hiding herself in eun's

Disguise the author is himself wondering if she's really come here to battle him since he knows the chick is too overpowered and can't be stopped at his current level hudin tries to regain His composure and believes that she might be here for a motive of her own he tries to chat her up casually but the second she draws her sword hajin starts losing his damn mind again he faces her with a smile but internally he knows he's about to get in this fight Ean requests that he draw his weapon for the battle hesitantly hajin reflects

in his thoughts that there's just no way he can take her down so he attempts a different approach by buying himself Time hajin thinks that there's only one deciding factor when it comes to duels he releases The Ether slime without her noticing Ean emphasizes that if he isn't going to use a weapon she'll take him down the thread reaches her and finally manages to catch her hjin has her right where he wanted the captain doesn't get what he's doing and realizes that he's choosing to surrender by taking off his Smartwatch the funniest part is that

it's not even his own watch using The Ether thread he swiftly managed to catch her watch without notice she's utterly shocked by this strategy hajin claims that Cadet duels are always decided based on the person taking their opponent's Smartwatch this means the second he presses the fingerprint recognition button she's as good as defeated the captain is stumped that he managed to catch her off guard like that while the author thinks she should have done her research a little better Deciding to be merciful on her he tosses back the Smartwatch claiming that he's choosing to be

merciful in this situation however the captain doesn't get what he's saying bro uses this opportunity to run the away still he has left a significant impression on the captain of the masked Syndicate unfortunately valerin wasn't watching the scene unfold because she was distracted even though her senses have been cut in half after using valeron's Disguise ability she was still outsmarted by a young Cadet for the future she thinks it's best to have a spell calling gate prepared in advance back to his Camp our boy is happy that he escaped in one piece he was so

close to death after encountering her it's a good thing she was nerfed in her disguised state hajin has done his part for now and thinks he should refuel himself for the time being while observing his points hajin attention is Drawn to Rachel who popped up from out of nowhere he wonders if she's trying to look for him turns out the girl is also hungry so hajin offers her a chance to grab a meal with him to spark conversation she wonders what he's been up to all this time hajin keeps it casual explaining that he's just

hunting points inside his mind he knows she's trying to ask why he saved her but she's too shy to say so he also notices that she's in injured which is just obvious When you're facing a fiend the food's preparing meanwhile the seed of Evangel is acting crazy in his pocket suddenly it darts out and Dives right into Rachel's jacket causing an awkward scene and causing her to scream finally Rachel takes out the seed and is begging for an explanation of what an almond is doing inside her jacket bro is way too embarrassed to tell her

that he's raising an almond and clarifies that it's more of a seed she returns him the Seed but Rachel is still pretty embarrassed by the awkward scene as hajin is checking on the food Rachel finally makes the request she's been meaning to ask she wants to team up with him behind the scenes like suho and naun earlier hajin explains that nayun said the same thing in the novel anyway the princess explains that there may be a team out there hunting for her she talks about Yun hajin tells her not to worry because he won't be

going after them Anymore the scene hints that Jong Hawk has already eliminated the group in his Fury Jong Haw has brutally annihilated the rest of yun's teammates he doesn't get what's going on or why Shin Jong Haack of all people is here with a sharp grin The Man greets him with a powerful projectile causing the stick to land right next to yun's face the stick has a provocative message written on it as well as a location attached Yun tries to explain that it wasn't his doing and That he's hunting down an innocent person but Jong

Haw isn't the rational type and doesn't give a crap this makes Yun his pants as Jong hot grips his spear claiming that he despises people like him grabbing the cadet's throat he chokes him and mentions his annoyance with manipulating snakes like Yun the scene ends there and when we see a glimpse of the supervision Tower governing the exam a part of this team is seunga herself who seems to be busy In thought her friend comes to ask what's keeping her up sua mentions hajin name instead of fixating on suho like always she explains that while

suho is still the top candidate they hunting for she's managed to receive interesting information about this guy too she was able to get her hands on a secret document called the yanha report interestingly enough in that report yanha personally believes that hyene is a stronger candidate even over SU While the document is likely to be fake they've still discovered a special thing about the boy and his ability to use light magic she thinks his rank is irrelevant in this particular case she doesn't have proof for now so she's planning on baiting him through her name

tag after all stealing a supervisor's name tag can get you 200 points back at the campsite Rachel observes hajin bullet confirming her thoughts she still doesn't get how he was able to find her In danger something about it seems strange but one thing is for sure she knows it was the Mage Lancaster who perpetrated the attack back in a regretful thought Rachel wonders if it was better for her to have died that day meanwhile the author is busy hunting down monsters from the world tree the best location for his sniping he thinks the hunting is

going easier than expected he found Rachel in a pretty depressed state earlier but she quickly Regained happiness with food hajin eyes are drawn to something glimmering close by he stumbles upon a beautiful Lake thinking that there's bound to be a bunch of monsters with valuable points casting a light sphere hajin thinks it's ideal to bait them suddenly he senses someone close and addresses them nothing responds back but it's clear that this person is sharply trailing them hajin activates his special eyes and discovers nayun past her concealment skill he Fires a shot next to her breaking

her concealment by startling her naun is almost pissed that he did that while hajin wants to know why she's spying on him she tries to make an excuse but nothing significant comes to mind confirming his thoughts that she was following him all along hajin wants to know the real reason so nayun gives up and confirms that she's hunting shunga this surprises the author a little but naun is really curious how he managed to Cut past her concealment skill instead of answering he gets on his laptop keep in mind that no one can see his laptop

so she doesn't know why he's kneeling all of a sudden hajin remembers soo's part in the novel who observes suho initially and then focuses on observing other candidates that means it's likely that sua could also be following him nearby he uses his surveillance to see where she's hiding and finds her on top of the tree this makes the author wonder If he's become a prospect in her eyes hajin is figured things out while the short-haired brat is getting impatient she's shocked how he was able to make the light sphere bro out here plays a charmful

prince and thinks she shouldn't look further into it he must have negative RZ because it only ends up weirding her out she no longer wants to care and with both of them at odds with each other they decide to go the opposite direction hajin knows that There's just no way he can risk telling her the truth explaining the stigma magic would also include telling her their world is taking place inside a mere book that he wrote anyway the author resumes his Monster hunting it's it's been 2 hours since she went away and he's acquired 15

more points in that time span however someone else is bothering him this person decides to unveil their presence SAA remembers him well and prefers that he feel at ease Around her she explains her mission to test various abilities of the cadet with a small challenge the rules of this challenge are simple she's not going to do anything but stand in place with her left hand Kim hajin is supposed to attack her with whatever he can however if he manages to land even a single blow that isn't on her left hand or move her even a

single step from her spot she'll happily hand over the name tag it's quite the offer but it's cunga and hajin Knows it's not going to be easy still it's tempting because the offer could gain him 200 points jumping him straight into first place the main obstacle is the fact that he's dealing with the brilliant Sia so it's going to be difficult she wonders if he's going to reject her or take her on hajin reaches for his gun implying that he's ready to fight her for it he shoots a bullet aimed right at her sua thinks

this will be the perfect opportunity for her to Gauge his skills she wipes the bullet with a flick of her finger showcasing her amazing senses and speed she's already seen him pull off a light sphere and while she wiped the bullet away she can still feel her fingers throbbing from the impact SAA is happy that the report proved to be reliable after all hajin on the other hand is a little disappointed he used a strengthened round only for her to deflect it without even using magic this means the direct Approach will be impossible with this

hero he uses his stigma to craft two blades and swipes them at her but this attack is rather easily dodged by sua who notes how he used to to be a sword Warrior before his conversion his variety of skills impresses her the author arms his gun again and attempts to shoot her back to back all for shunga to speedily block every attack she notes how his weapon is beyond powerful for a training weapon issued by the Institution this confirms to her that he's using a gift related to honing his guns what she didn't expect was

for the knives to come flying right back at her hajen is intelligently using an off angle to catch sua off guard since she's only allowed to use her left hand however she wouldn't be a hero without her own tricks sha ignites her Aura blasting away the knives from her spot she didn't break a rule since the attack didn't connect with her body and she Didn't move now it's certain to our boy that he just won't be able to beat her sea is extremely impressed that he can alter the trajectory of the projectiles using magic she

swooned like hell and wonders what kind of ability he used she Compares him to an onion with one new layer after another she wants to inspect his entire arsenal of talents but this dude is done as he puts away his gun and literally just starts walking away way sua's shocked as she struggles to Believe that he's just leaving like that she asks why he's headed the other way right when things were beginning to enjoy her suddenly the clever author turns back and reminds Sia that she just lost for taking a step she was careless and

forgot about her condition not to move a single step the sudden horrifying realization sets in for sua who can't believe she's just been outsmarted she's infuriated but hajin clarifies that he doesn't really care about it since their Fight is a waste of time he doesn't see anything working against her so he's giving up bro just leaves after surrendering while SAA Trails him like an ex-girlfriend who is still not over you the reality is hajin wanted to see just how strong he was against yunga believing he had a small chance but this dude now knows she's

a monster in every sense of the word sua is still walking after him and calling for his name this whole scene was observed by Ean who is Assessing hajin abilities drun asks if everything is going well because she left her friend group just to come here however the captain believes she made the ideal Choice suddenly the island Shakes as something greater is happening the captain refers to this shaking as palpitations we then catch a shot of a cocoon of a butterfly sapling which is about to emerge soon let's talk about the sapling butterfly this is

a kind of parasitic monster that nurtures its Growth through trees in the original story Rachel and suho were responsible for defeating the creature on the last day of the finals this way the main character suho stumbles upon the sapling butterflies powder and Rachel receives an evolution in her own abilities however currently Rachel is stuck with the author he has to find some way to indulge her into the events of the story so she can fight the sapling butterfly there's one glaring issue though Rachel Suddenly asks where they're headed since they're aimlessly searching around the problem

is hajin has no idea where the the sapling butterfly will emerge from let's visit suho's group now who have collected a pile of monsters placing them directly in first place 20 hours are left until the end of the exam suho is going about his business when all of a sudden nayun intriguingly asks suho's opinion on hajin abil abilities she mentions that he acts like he's Masking a ton of his powers the first encounter at the Museum then in Paris wherever they encounter him he's always insanely powerful despite his low physical stats and ranking suho suddenly

remembers what hajin told him he thinks that he's got a crush on her so this boy is just beaming like an idiot for no reason naun is upset and wants to know what he's smiling about while they're carelessly chatting a tree root erects from the ground to attack them both of Them are shocked that the roots are moving on their own at the same time hajin also sees the roots giving him a good idea of the sapling butterflies location The Roots dominate the cadets leaving Rachel and hajin defend for themselves hajin lays out his plan

he has to uncover the source of the earthquakes and eliminate the monster but he wants her protection on the way it's a typical request so Rachel accepts this leads to the author's contemplation Regarding the cadets he knows they'll head right to the source giving them the best shot to challenge the butterfly sapling meanwhile Su is seeing things go down she wonders if she should intervene or not given that this creature isn't supposed to be a part of the exam on second thought she believes that this creature would be a great test of the cadet's capabilities

it may sound harsh but it's just that she believes they should be Able to handle a threat like a hero good heroes are always nurtured by adversity we see naun descending with her magic sword attack obliterating one of the tree roots with a clean cut she's Amazed by her own attack and even suho's reaction is one of joy since he's a swordsman he guides her how to use a sword and perform better slashes this causes naun to get up upet because the Dude is ruining her Shining Moment The Roots seem endless but not impossible to

Beat suho realizes that fighting The Roots shouldn't be their focus they'll have to kill the source leading to the trunk some of the cadets point out how the tree looks particularly strange they can see a creature swirling around in the Cocoon suddenly the shell bursts open revealing the terrifying sapling butterfly in its true form the sheer size of the creature alarms the cadets the butterfly separates from the tree and takes flight its wings leave a Potent powder in the atmosphere spreading it all around the cadets naun is the first person to experience its Dreadful effects

as the powder is reaping away her strength the same happens to the rest of the students naun faints but suho catches her before she falls for some reason he's the only person unaffected while the rest of the crew is drained of energy the reason is revealed that suho held his breath to make sure he wasn't affected by the Powder but he's struggling to keep up and wonders if he can safely take out the threat at that time suddenly suho senses two sharp Cadets coming from out of nowhere Rachel and hajin are fast on their feet

and have already taken countermeasures by wearing masks they're going full speed to catch the monster Rachel observes the Fallen Cadets and realizes that they've been affected by the powder the really strange part is that hajin was aware of everything that Would go down which bothers her he calls for her attention and points to the monster hovering in the air he wants to defeat the monster by himself and wants Rachel to take care of the roots preparing his shot hajin releases powerful bullets shattering the creature's wing and inflicting incredible amounts of pain the sapling butterfly cries

in agony causing the roots to emerge from the ground Rachel has been waiting for this moment and Dices them down with her exceptional sword skill her eyes turn back to hajin as she realizes the roots are attacking from underground a gigantic root pops out and it could have killed hajin but thankfully Rachel acted quickly and shoved him away unfortunately however one of the roots has caught her right foot it snatches her away and propels her right into a tree hajin is worried for Rachel allowing himself to get distracted The Roots Target him next and It

looks like it's all over for him all of a sudden the main protagonist of the story suho makes his Valiant entrance saving hajin life unfortunately because of his previous attack the poor guy compromised his breath hajin attention is drawn to the defeated Rachel as he's afraid she is knocked out surprisingly the seed Wiggles its way out of his jacket and bounces away to find its mother hajin is literally losing his damn mind seeing this thing bounce in The air the seed strikes Rachel's face and starts adoring her hajin is pissed right now while suho calls

for his help his condition is also getting worse leaving them with little options hajin reflects that he can only use three fire bullets using stigma magic but that also means he's got only three shots to take the creature out turning to suho the author confirms he needs his help out of nowhere someone cast an electrical strike upon the sapling butterfly Knocking it down to the ground hajin wonders who took it down the figure is revealed to be the captain of the masked Syndicate crackling lightning surrounds her figure as the sapling butterfly crashes to the ground

hajin suspects that she might also be after the powder now that suho is given the opportunity to strike he uses his last bit of power to deal the killing blow the monster plummets in defeat while suho's strength wanes from his body as he collapses on The ground Ean stands before the sapling butterfly and reaches for the object she came looking for suddenly hajin confronts her and demands her to stop claiming that it's not something she should be taking according to the author not even the captain knows the function of the powder at this point in

the story in fact she's just retrieving it to resell the product and make money but that's going to steal suho's powerful development he needs a strength Buff by acquiring the powder to take down future enemies a disinterested Ean checks her surroundings and sees that everyone except for hajin seems to be knocked unconscious with the effects of the powder wearing off the captain can't believe that a typical Cadet like hajin can resist the power for so long she's found him an object of interest and plans to observe him closely in the future speaking of which hajin

is blocking out the effects by using ether To conserve his breathing he tries to wear his mask again but then all of a sudden Ean engulfs him in a portal of black inside the spatial Dimension the captain reveals her identity she knows that hajin always possessed knowledge that it was her from the beginning he tries to play it safe and remembers the name she told him back when they met at the midterms for a fast minute even the captain can't recall that name because she has so many aliases that it's hard To keep up she

remembers the card she gave him with a fake identity attached hajin wonders if she's some kind of test supervisor the captain is suspicious and probes him for more information he tries to Gaslight her but she issues a warning shot with a serious look on her face the captain is prepared to eliminate him but suddenly remembers she's supposed to act like a hero the author is scared shitless and explains that he figured it out when he gave her the Smartwatch he Adds that he's got special eyes but even she knows that brilliant eyes won't just help

anyone to see past valin's crafted disguise as she stands before him the captain theorizes that his magic ability might be inherently linked with anti-magic in attribute effects in that case every aspect of magic being produced from his body will wield anti-magic properties this is the only way he would be able to see valeron's ability by concentrating the effects in His eyes believing that assumption the captain is now completely persuaded by Kim hodan's value as an asset she breaks the illusion sphere and in Goodwill decides to share the saplings powder with him the captain has a

condition of her own but valerin stops her at the last second by reminding her not to blurt something stupid lo and behold the simplest thing she could ask for was hajin phone number after the conversation the feels a breath of Relief he was convinced it was game over for him still he got what he wanted the saplings powder is his for the taking the captain's intrusion messed up the timing of things hajin wonders how he can safely deliver the powder to suho without racking suspicion suddenly he remembers both Rachel and the seed that was tending

to her her body is glowing in a beam of light hajin is scared because the seed is finally undergoing its hatching State the beam of light Blinds hajin while Rachel slowly wakes up from her dream she spots a girl before her eyes a girl who Embraces her with love healing all of her injuries something about this girl feels familiar to her Rachel realizes that she looks like a younger version of herself the girl tries to communicate with her but Rachel couldn't comprehend her words she wants her to try and repeat what she said unfortunately her

dream ends with hajin rushing towards her there's a mini Rachel sitting next to her Evangel addresses the horrified hajin as her father and tells him that her mom has fallen asleep again youngan and the others are knocked out and finally regain consciousness they see the Dizzy hajin carrying suho while shunga manages others the fourth day of the final exam finally ended they are on their way back to the institution we see hajin in a contemplative State as the finals have ended though the sudden appearance of The butterfly caused some issues additional points would be given

to the ones who were involved in taking down the monster inspecting his Smartwatch hajin realizes that she has yet to contact him after all the captain has taken his contact information for their plans still he doesn't get what made her so interested in him specifically while he's busy in thought nyun comes and asks how he was able to beat the sapling butterfly the author doesn't get what She's talking about so she reminds him how she was put to sleep because of the powder she learned from suho that he beat the Butterfly by Smashing its wings

however it doesn't make any sense that he could smash a creature's wings with a handgun hajin also politely asks why she has suddenly invested in using a sword instead of her bow of course he loves stirring The Hornet's Nest causing naun to blurt out in anger on how he was the one who asked her to hajin tries to s Switch rolls here and acts like she might face difficulty if she used a weapon with less experience during combat however she's fine with that since she's quite decent with a sword and won't be facing much trouble

hjin is okay with that so he asks how it felt like wielding a sword again seeing that she's dismissive in her body language hajin thinks it must have been a scary experience this causes the girl to get hot and nervous because she wants to Sell the impression she didn't face any trouble adjusting hajin can easily spot whenever Chay Yun is lying after all it's a characteristic he added in writing to her he smiles realizing that despite the changes in the story nothing about her personality Has Changed by much he thinks it will be okay in

the end and tells naun that she was born to use a sword which is true considering the intentions of the author the scene shifts to Yona who is sharing a meal With suho and nayun she's a fan of the hajin X nyun ship which causes her to get embarrassed even suho thinks that there may be something between the two going on considering hajin words the purple-haired brat thinks that the only people who try to get close to that guy eventually give up because of his unfriendly personality this is in direct contrast to nayun who he

has consistently shown interest in nayun tries to backfire and reminds yanha that She was the one who got close to him at first but that only happened because she wanted something from him on the flip side hain's relationship with naun is different embarrassed like hell she tries to mask her flustered reaction they are wondering how she's going to handle this situation speaking of our boy he's spotted standing nearby causing poor naun to try and play it off like she doesn't care hajin gives her a glance before going away causing Yana to Tease her even more

underneath nun's defenses are starting to dull evidenced by her face anyway the author returns to his dorm to check on Evangel she looks like a mini Rachel who is extremely excited to see her papa she pounces on him to ask where he went hajin reminds the little girl not to call him daddy as that would complicate their relationship and people would know the little girl is stubborn and wants to know the reason why hajin is starting to realize the Patience necessary to handle a young child the cute girl innocently Smiles at him with a radiant

beam of Happiness hajin can't help but Smile Back Evangel ended up evolving by Rachel's side on the last day of the exam he was extremely nervous when he found out about her she also jumped him in joy for raising her with care hajin was losing his because a scouting helicopter was checking on the cadets he requested Evangel to return to her seed State like She was before poor girl didn't want to do that and kept calling Rachel her mommy she felt sad leaving her mother in a Flash Evangel reverted to her seed State and that's

how he brought her back to his room the monster child is roaming around causing destruction while this dude has become a teen father all of a sudden it's lunchtime and Evangel is sparkling in Joy eating the yummy food hajin wants her to finish up and shifts his Focus to the butterfly saplings Powder the powder is a magical substance known for attaching itself to a Target and revealing their hidden potential the main target of the powder is the potential and it can be applied to both humans and objects the thing is it should have ended up

in the hands of suho but the captain intervened and made things complicated now he still got to think of a suitable way to get the powder in suho's hands the scene cuts to Rachel resting on her bed pondering About the dream of a child she had she vividly remembers feeling her as if it were more than just a dream she thinks it might be a kind of Elemental tree altering her dream or possibly even a hallucination at the same time she can't take her mind off of the hallucination the very thought of it makes her

happy and warm she thinks she'll always feel that warm from now on implying they might someday meet again we go back to Yona who is patiently waiting for Someone that person arrives at last and it's revealed to be our boy hajin who she was expecting to cancel she tells him that one more person will be joining them but since they're running late they should proceed ahead at this point the author is wondering about the identity of this final person yon congratulates him for performing well in the final exam but hajin thinks very little of his

score Yona teases him that he should have cut down on 20 points to enter the Average line still many other guilds are starting to take an interest in this guy and she's aware of that hajin glances outside the window before getting shocked Jana finally welcomes him to The Majestic headquarters of The Straits of essence Guild let's go back a few hours earlier the author receives a message about the guild experience many guilds are going to be contacting certain cadetes of Interest via SmartWatches it's a system that provides Cadets with An opportunity to see current heroes

in action each Guild is granted the right to select any Cadet of their choosing however priority is given to the guilds with the highest ranking hajin is pretty excited for this day because he wants to see the heroes in action each Guild is supposed to select three Cadets from the first and second years consequently the firste students ranking below 300 rarely get a chance and since hajin ranking was in the league of 900 when he got the Admission he thinks he's doomed no matter his test score in the finals a sudden Smartwatch notification shocks him

hajin is actually stunned that he was picked by someone turns out that it's the Straits of essence Guild who extended the theme of the invitation back to the present we see Yona and hajin strolling around it turns out that many Heroes perform indoor work after careful analysis of dangerous missions before stepping into the field he Sharply glances at yanha realizing that she's the single reason he ended up for the guild experience after all she has the authority as the guild Master's daughter to bend the rules a little the group enters the research and Analysis Chambers

one of the heroes points out how hajin played first in his theoretical exam so he thought this place would be one of interest to him sangho is a middling hero and Yan's most reliable assistant he's responsible for Conducting Guild experiences for potential Scouts he appears to be a really nice guy and if not for the fact that hajin wrote the story as the author he wouldn't have ever come to know that this guy would one day betray Yona in a brutal manner one person draws near them addressing Sango and the new Cadet liina knows about

Kim hajin and she's Another Hero from The Guild she's quick to judge him based on his rank eyeing down yanha for abusing her power and arranging such A meeting of course this woman does not want him to be here she's the main supporter of the current Vice Guild Master hosio which means she is in direct opposition to yanha however her resentment towards yanha is temporary and is supposed to shift in the later part of the story she becomes the vice Guild Master eventually and Becomes Her strength sangho tries to offer hajin merits as he placed

first in the theoretical exam but she thinks That's not an impossible feat she doesn't see the importance of education at the cadet level and tries to get the better of hajin Gina thinks it would be a good idea to test his ability and hands him a report to solve sangho reminds her that she isn't supposed to be sharing confidential data Gina thinks little of it because all she cares about is belittling hajin bro is infuriated and thinks it's the best chance to prove her wrong extending his hand towards Gina he requests for paper to jot

down his thoughts Gina continues to egg him on by poking fun at him while he doesn't understand why she's being such a hard ass meanwhile yon realizes that their second visitor has also arrived both she and her assistant decide to go visit that person leaving hajin to figure out the report he assesses the dungeon raid variables and admits that its concepts are far advanced for the average Cadet however thanks to his observation Ability he can swiftly calculate anything with ease and note down the answers he's about to finish up the final part of his proof

when suddenly Gina steals the damn paper from him she's frustrated that he kept solving the report instead of following his friends bro is 1 second away from shooting her in the face anyway hajin leaves the analysis room a little distraught that he couldn't finish up the conclusion he's hoping to God that She doesn't ask him to retake the test as he's about to leave the elevator hajin finds himself startled to run into nayun she is even surprised to see this guy here and directly confronts yanha about it hajin observes yona's reaction and seems to have

intentionally kept information about both of them from the other person it's been a while since we checked on jinuk's detective agency he's out here exhausting himself trying to string together every clue he can dig up On Kim hajin and yet there's nothing promising or significant about him his past is Jaded in black and there's no information on his parents or how he became an orphan jinuk is reaching his limits after his niece tasked him with an impossible job at the same time everything about this boy is making things interesting for him we see a snippet

of a report that mentions an accident that took away the life of a pregnant woman and her unborn child next Up is the mobilization assignment for naun and hajin to experience sangho wants to know what made the girl take her time naun expresses that she had a meeting with her grandfather before bolting all the way here her grandfather is no joke he's the Great Hero Chay juel yonah receives an important call and signals them to go on ahead in the restroom she talks to her uncle Jin huk and requests a report on the investigation Jin

huk teases her by Saying that he didn't even get the chance to start yet Jana is enraged hearing that while Jin huk asks what's gotten her interested in the boy's parents to begin with after all it's not like hajin is actively looking for them based on her earlier hypothesis about hajin interest in criminals yanha thinks he is looking for his parents which makes her wonder if they were also linked to some kind of crime past life this connects to Jin hu's investigation In the guango shelter Massacre he cuts her off and claims that he's got

a client to handle Jin huk drops the call on her and begins to wonder if there's a connection between the boy and the massacre speaking of the massacre 16 years ago a surge of monsters flooded guango and took many lives the incident resulted in the death of nine Heroes and 87 civilians jinuk was responsible for investigating the incident in the past and was eventually expelled from his Family because of it the government came to the conclusion that fiends were behind the attack but that was just a cover instead the real perpetrator were hiding elsewhere the

president of the country at the time Kim sooko the chairman of the dun group juul and finally yona's father janon they didn't bother hunting him down and instead went with assassins to do their bidding the incident didn't really matter all that much to them this begs the question what If there was a Survivor from the incident what if hajin parents lost their lives in the brutal Massacre leading to the boy's vengful path sensing a critical danger jinuk feels obliged to stop investigating the case after all if he becomes jil's Target he's the one who will

be in danger the story jumps back to naun who is enjoying herself running full speed with the others unfortunately hajin has physicality so he's barely keeping up With these guys sanho wonders if hajin will be okay but naun isn't worried about him but for some reason yanha is pissed as hell she's mainly angered at her damn useless Uncle who cut her off they arrive at the monster destination where a bunch of Golems are wreaking havoc one Golem is about to end the life of Innocence it swings its powerful fist into the ground when suddenly Yan's

whip catches and stops it this allows sangho the opportunity to bolt ahead with his Spear releasing it with full power and destroying the Golem meanwhile hajin has just caught up with the group thanks to his slow pace naon prepares her Arrow to shoot down the Golem she senses the need to use her sword instead reflecting that Golems share one main weakness she lunges Full Speed Ahead to slice down its ankles nun's sword supercharges with magic and the moment she's about to deliver her strike the Golem catches her off guard with a powerful punch to her

Abdomen nion receives a jolt of pain and falls to the ground with a thud she can't believe that Golems have become so strong the creature prepares to finish her off when one voice calls out to her help it's hajin who manages to pull her away using his ether magic but maybe a little too close for comfort surprisingly just the mere thought of saving naun caused his ether to react on its own this causes an awkward situation between the two while hajin is thinking Of ways to resolve the situation with some kind of response he decides

to give her meaningful advice that she should fight from range if she finds herself in trouble he even tells her that her sword is capable of longer ranged strikes naun doesn't take his words offensively and finds herself spaced out she pretends to keep her tough girl act turning away she thanks him for his help the author internalizes that there is a crucial reason for her to continue wielding her Sword because it will allow her an overwhelming advantage of gaining 10 times the Mana capacity of normal Heroes nun has an innate ability called the Mana ocean

which she uses through her sword to Channel its effects in simple terms she has a monstrous pool of mana and even surpasses Kim suho's magic power in raw output the mission is successful with the heroes taking down the Golems the relief teams are here to take care of the rest suddenly hjin Feels a sharp stare from someone observing him the moment he exchanged a look with this person he could tell who he was facing naun calls for him because they need to go so he turns back and feels sorry for the person watching anyway Gina

is tired from working long hours in her office her friend recommends delegating the task but this arrogant thinks she's better than everyone her friend glances at the paper hudg and wrote Gina being a D1 Hater tries marking the exam for the cadet in order to belittle him further but when she read the report she was simply too stunned to speak her attitude towards him immediately shifts she floods hudin with messages and an immediate request to call her poor guy doesn't want to revisit the headquarters and certainly isn't interested in meeting her again in fact he

leaves a message to sangho claiming that he won't be joining The Guild experience tomorrow Hajin thinks of a spicy plan to ramp up the fun hajin sarcastically replies to sangho reminding him of his ranking in the institution and believing that he's unfit for an amazing guild like the Straits of essence this in turn makes the assistant mad because it's all thanks to Gina's blabber mouth that led to the boy's Interest being shattered knowing that Yona is going to be mad and pissed at them later hajin believes this is the best course of action he's Starting

to feel sleepy after the exhausting day especially with how much he has to keep his little energetic child busy he lifts up the girl girl and believes that he should take care of something else while Evangel is still soundly asleep the boy reaches out for the powder and inspects it properly something has been busying his mind lately about the use of the powder it's the fact that the powder is in great abundance meaning he could use it to Nurture many main characters all at once including himself so he decides to split the powder into three

parts the author reminds himself that he also has to survive apart from the main characters and that's why he should be taking strategic advantage of each situation with the powder split in three he takes one part and thinks that using it on his body would be the worst because he doesn't have any hidden potential to be awakened that means the one thing he Should be using the powder on is his ether magic and that's what he does by sprinkling it on top of the golden sphere now the powder is going to take effect soon hajin

receives a sudden message from naun at a late hour prompting him to wonder what could be bothering her she messaged him being thankful for his help and for some reason she wanted to continue her message and kept our boy waiting for 10 full minutes she tested his Insanity all Until the as what she wanted to say naun pretended that it was nothing and decided not to pursue the matter hajin just told the chick to sleep since she's going crazy she laughs at his joke instead of feeling offended the author fails to understand what's causing her

to react this way lately the fact that they're speaking casually like this is just one way of telling that something is wrong he started off this story as an extra character with no influence or Importance in the story but now he has become a vital piece among the important characters this makes him wonder if he should classify himself as a supporting character still there's a lot for him to solve despite what he's done the scene transitions to the hardworking yanha who is exhausted regarding the amount of work she's been having to do lately The Straits

of essence Guild has its personalized intelligence team but they're lacking when it comes to Information gathering that's why Yona is attempting to recruit new agents for the role of course she's still mad at her cheeky Uncle who left the investigation halfway leaving her to do the Dirty Work surprisingly nun calls her at the late hour she picks up the call and explains that she's busy doing work naun keeps it simple and tells her that she and suho were planning to attend a seminar and wanted her to come this girl is such a simple person she

was going to refuse Until she heard that Yung Hawk was going to attend the event Yana seeks to end the call and asks if that's all however nayun shifts the topic and talks about the Drone footage that was recorded yesterday in their fight against the Golems yanha confirms that she did after all she's the one who has to write a report on the guild experience for management sharp as she is she immediately realizes that naun is trying to emphasize the moment where our boy Caught her the footage was able to capture a really good angle

of the two against each other naun is begging to God she doesn't spread the shot around but Yona continues to tease her by asking if she felt nice being held like that their girl talk ends with naun getting flustered and yanha ending the call we finally see nun's perspective after the call ends only to find out that she's a ball of pink embarrassment meanwhile Yona is convinced that nayun Is trying to stop herself from believing in the truth she happily returns to her work work uplifted by the conversation she just had until she receives a

sudden message which shocks her so much that she gets up from her seat in disbelief Kim hajin voluntarily decided to resign from The Guild experience because of Gina's stupidity she's now infinitely more mad and talks to Gina for ruining a spectacular Prospect she's also mad at hajin for always doing the Opposite of her expectations going back to the author his story points are receiving a hit because of his increased influence in the story hajin wasn't expecting to receive many points lately and thinks it's only best to spend these points on the right purchase in a

pensive State the author admits that his physical stats are going to lag behind the rest of his abilities his greatest strength is being strategic in the fights he chooses like applying the Powder on his ether magic in the same manner hajin wants to spend his story points into his weapon while it seems like a risky bet it's worth the effect since his luck is always there to help him deciding to go all the author confirms to awaken the ability begging for things to go right tapping away at his keyboard he confirms the activation scared of

what could happen but when he opens his eyes the system meets him with a sad outcome the quality of his ability Was reduced due to a lack of story points however his luck Factor saved him at the last moment so he didn't really lose that much hajin is relieved but not really satisfied with the outcome it was a ridiculous idea but he's glad that he didn't lose that much with the preparation phase finished he remembers why he's choosing to enhance his abilities right now peeping at his Smartwatch hajin receives a notice from the travel club's

next decided Destination it's about time the m main story line resumes from where it left off the past whole week hajin has deliberately decided to go all in on his physical training he didn't want to give up on his body despite spending points on his weapon it always leaves him exhausted at the end of each training session and he doesn't really find himself improving his physical stats to the level of a regular Cadet activating The Ether magic he's glad that at least The development of his ether is finally complete more information about the ether's properties

is provided it's basically a fluid that can be manipulated into any shape or use case thank y hajin has raised its physical strength modifier to 7 and there's also a detailed materialization function now available influencing the color and texture of the fluid he plays around with it and decides against making guns since they're just too difficult so in Order to test the fluid he manipulates it into a knife the effect worked successfully and passed as a regular knife however one thing is different popping the use of his observation ability hajin learns that each materialized object

gains a strength boost up to 44% so his blade is way stronger than the real one he throws it with full strength to test its strength causing the blade to cut past the boulder something a regular blade could Never be capable of the detail materialization is an amazing boost paired with the random boost system both abilities are pretty strong despite being weaker than mythical weapons hajin wants to use this ability to deceive his opponents when the time's right he mentions how careless people are prone to receiving injury from even a simple knife which is a

good thing for him in this case the scene transitions to The Lovable Evangel who who is playing Around with the ether fluid haene tells her to stay in her room while he's gone for his Club activities even promising to buy her something delicious if she promises him he teases the cute potato before deciding to head off aangel waves at him with a cute smile and anticipates his return meanwhile Rachel receives her servant who wants to come and ensure her safety after the recent incidents the institution has decided to place important Personnel guarding her there's Also

talks about the cadet who saved her life the Royal Guild is interested in scouting Kim hajin which makes her very happy after all she knows for a fact that his fighting prowess exceeds that of a bottom ranker she suspects that other guilds are probably already on their way to extending their offers of course they can't do much at this stage since it's illegal to seriously offer an invitation at this level the Royal Guild doesn't hold the same ranking as the Best Korean guilds however they do have one of the best systems to approach Cadets this

way Rachel thinks they could create the most valuable offer for Kim hjin compared to other guilds let's Jump Ahead to the travel club's president who is introducing the group to England burning hot as it is nun's a little upset yanha questions why she decided to swoop in with her Cadet uniform on what's more the chick is shocked that our boy is chilling despite wearing a Jacket on top of his damn uniform Psychopathic Behavior bro gives her a thumbs up stating that he's all well what these guys don't know is that he's using the royal black

coat he received from Rachel which regulates body temperature according to the environment suho and hajin are amazed by the architecture of the country turns out their final destination for the day will be a spot that do doesn't exist in our world it's the Clancy iset a floating Island the only way to get there is via the use of a portal the author explains that this artificial island is owned by the government and is made out of floating Stones it's a place where currency flourishes allowing for entertainment and opportunities auctions and even product launches it's basically

considered the golden Island comparable to Las Vegas above all it's the center stage for the story's next Arc having hopped on the Clancy eyelet nayun is Beaming with happiness suho is surprised to learn that both yha and naun have been here once before poor girl remembers that she last came with her brother and right after that he was caught in a terrible incident suho tries to help ease her mood and wants her to be the one to help him navigate the place naon is pumped to do that for her group the club president explains that

there will be an event on the eyelet in the evening thankfully they've all been Granted permission to join he recommends they enjoy time by themselves until they gather around for the event naun excitedly raises her hand for a question inquiring if they're permitted to check out the casino this chick is a gambler it turns out that the cadets are treated as adults so they're allowed to explore the casino area the four of them decide to head to the casino with naun being the most excited of them all this casino is glittering with gold all around

hajin Wasn't expecting the place to be so bold in its appearance naon being the gambling addict wants to go right away and have fun but before that they need to show their ID cards with the receptionist thanks to hajin special observation ability the dude immediately sees through valerine disguise and inquires how how long she's worked here he plays around as if it's nothing but knows that valerin has already made her way inside the event that's going to Happen at 7 is problematic for several reasons there's going to be several demonic fiends Gathering here for it

clenching his fist the author hopes to maintain his sense of reason and calm even though he knows his anxiety will be testing him greatly but not for the reasons you're expecting this dude is low-key thrilled to go gambling to test the limits of his luck stat the incident is going to occur at 7 leaving him with plenty of time to mess around after a While hajin ends up cleaning out the entire slot machines thanks to his monstrous luck he wonders where he should go next poor naun on the other hand is on a losing streak

big time the man she's facing is called Bert annoyed at her losses she's done with the game and tries to leave Bert suddenly stops her to give 20% of her amount back all because he feels bad for her loss this kind gesture only makes her angry like a damn lunatic she slams the table Mouthing off her annoyance at the game the really funny part is that in just about 2 hours she's going to be crying around in the casino with not a single penny to her name unfortunately for her the people at the casino are

the ones to control the trajectory of the game their leader Bert is a side character with some level of significance in hajin Story the author sees her losing again he thinks she can only do so much against a dude who gambles for a living And has tricks up his sleeve so hajin offers to become her hero and takes her spot beaming with confidence because he wants to see how this game will go naun thinks he's the one being Reckless since the minimum bet to be placed is at least 100,000 one but Haj jeene joins in

regardless prompting her to get annoyed the players are quickly dealt the cards and begin checking them with everyone ready to play the game one man turns to the boy surprised to ask why he isn't Flipping his cards yet hajin calmly tells him that he doesn't intend to do that thanks to his observation ability he can see them even while face down it seems like crazy Behavior coming from a kid so they wonder if the boy knows how to play this game at all the author doesn't care much about his banter and intentionally reveals the card

with the lowest value the man is fed up with h looking down on him and acting arrogant but our boy reminds him that he's the One who decided to talk to him it causes a scene until Bert calmly takes control of the situation and reminds his friend that they're dealing with a cube Cadet so they have to be respectful now when it comes to Bert he's equally as stunned by hjin stunt but he's a fine actor who is trying to maintain his composure that is until our boy breaks it of course a while passes at

the casino we see a shot of valerin in her disguised State having confirmed six members from The Fellowship of evil deeds and three heroes from the association under cover there's also a scammer and a hero acting on his own though the last guy seems to be harmless speaking of which she's also encountered hajin whom the captain is fond of still she wonders if the boy will be able to recognize her having previously encountered her before the captain tells her that he can see past her disguise by using his special ability but even she thinks he

wouldn't Do that on normal people she couldn't be more wrong about this assumption since hajin ability is active all the time now let's go back to Bert's shitty face who seems to be in a rut while hajin is playing confidently it's the 12th round and there's a huge jackpot of nearly 60 million one Bert's card is the Ace of Hearts pair that with the rest of his cards and he's got the full Ace stack with him despite having amazing cards Bert is an expert Gambler who maintains His poker face he swings for a call which

in gambling terms means to accept your opponent's bet and place one of equal value naon chimes in and raises the BET higher than another player hajin Trails her with the same Choice Bert's got four aces which means the bare minimum requirement of beating this guy requires four of a kind normally this is considered impossible overcoming a full house with four of a kind has lower chances than winning a damn Lottery but Hodan's case is different Berke points to the cadet who is placed Allin surprisingly he's got his eyes set on hajin necklace ring which is

the artifact he acquired at the hall naun is surprised and asks further about the ring hajin chooses to play dismissive and tells her it's not important but knowing this L struck fool naun probably thinks he's keeping it for someone she's done with the game and gets up to leave hajin wants her to stay but naun knows The game is already over she even wants to compensate him by paying him the money he lost instead of tossing an important ring on the bat hajin Yanks her and tells her that it's fine since he's not going to

lose this unintentional move by him makes her feel embarrassed again hyen tells Bert that he's got his hands on a really expensive ring so he wants the man to offer his bracelet in response bird is fine with doing that both artifacts are on the Table now it's time for the main event to flip the card Bert is the first to do so and Reveals His Three Aces paired with Two Jacks a full house naun is dead and lost in defeat Bert apologizes and immediately tries to take all the chips for him after all there's no

way he would lose now right that is until our boy reminds him that he's yet to reveal his cards the game's not over Bert is almost offended at the thought so hajin reaches To flip those cards for him revealing his four of a kind nun's face is all you need to know about her reaction she thinks it's impossible for him to pull that off while hajin acts like it was all luck in the end even bird is done for it's impossible to him how this could have happened his calm composure is destroyed as he lashes

out against hajin so much so that security has to come and restrain him security checked numerous times and proved that hajin is Innocent in his victory she thinks of the guy as a loser while he's inspecting the bracelet it's a special magic artifact with a magic seal reducing the wearer's damage and restoring it as their Mana the funny thing is not even Bert knew about its true power the only reason for that is is the fact that obsidian bracelets wearer can't access the Mana directly which means the Mana is left inside the artifact while adding

one or two magic seals could open the Bracelets Mana for use Bert wouldn't have found out until a year later in the original story naan is curious and wants to know what would have happened if he lost he calmly tells her that he would have accepted death in that situation also since he's rich now he even tries to offer her the money she lost naun doesn't really care about it and tells him to keep it she's only got one thing to tell him a polite compliment that she found him really cool this girl is Definitely

in love anyway suho and Yona are reunited with hajin and nayun they barely manag to make it in time for the event bro is all dripped out like a fashion model and even yanha asks what caused the change hajin expresses that he just had to swing by an antique shop for some premium designer outfit as for the Money naun Talks highly of how hajin won all of the games that involved luck like a crazy maniac their conversation is interrupted by a guy who seems to Know naun she wasn't expecting to meet him in this place

and comes to learn that he just came here for fun hajin asks if he's her secret boyfriend or something causing her to get worked up and flustered in a strong refusal this guy is Kim junwu from The Forsaken Plains Guild the same hero whom valerin regarded as harmless Yan has got lucky on him and greets the guy in a very business-like manner they chat with each other while the captain of the masked Syndicate is secretly eyeing them she asks for valerin who materializes using her magic ready to carry out her role the event begins with

a bunch of Transmissions broadcast in it talks of VIPs having come from all over the world are surfacing about marking the event's Global significance there's an announcement of the new white crystal usage method and people are stoked to learn more arriving in her hot ride Rachel steps out of the vehicle looking At the most majestic person there she's met with a dozen interviews begging for an opinion the princess ignores all of them and her guards step in to maintain distance she slams the door shut standing in front of what appears to be a spatial portal

Rachel is glad to have some peace all alone when zeelen the CEO greets her Rachel isn't thrilled to meet him and asks if he's ensured safety from the fiends apparently the Clancy iset is highlighted as the safest place in the Entire continent of Europe the best of the best heroes are here to check for disruptions so there shouldn't be any trouble the leton corporation is also a huge supporter of the royal Guild which is why they're doing their best to highlight the Guild's reputation through this event but something about his words sounds Sinister and untrusting

to Rachel the man's mischevous smile is enough to say he's hiding things but he does advise the princess to look forward to The event let's cut to hajin sitting all by himself at the table there are still 30 minutes until the event officially starts yet the place is packed full what's really bothersome is why they would ever decide to host a dangerous event right when the place is swarming with demonic fiends the author created many evil corporations in the story but perhaps the worst of the RIS is the leton corporation while there isn't an abundance

of fiends among the company The humans themselves are disgusting this same group holds the powerful white crystal a gem that no fiend should ever be allowed to lay their hands on according to the main storyline hajin believes at least three fiends will reveal themselves today the first is the crystal carrier himself nade the second is Sison whom they faced for the ring of Homer and the last guy is the captain of The Fellowship of the evil Deeds collection team hakio at his current Level there's practically nothing he could do to stop these guys from doing

what they're supposed to this time he really has to let the story unfold on its own an unexpected visitor calls for his name it's the captain of the masked Syndicate who surprises him with with her sudden appearance she uses security as her excuse for patrolling the area while valerin is teasing the captain for talking to her Crush hearing that she gets insanely pissed and poor hajin is Left wondering if he's the one who made her mad regaining composure the captain apologizes explaining that she heard something strange in her earpiece the funny thing is hajin apparently

heard what valerin said too which is why he experienced double the shock suho catches hajin talking to an unknown woman and asks about her he introduces the captain as shiao Fang a personal acquaintance hajin extends his greetings by introducing his friends the captain Acts like she knows them thanks to their exceptional ranking one other guest decides to chime in and it's junwu he's very much interested in knowing how shaoang knows about the cadet additionally he's interested in knowing about her Guild Association which means this dude has probably caught on to her we jump forward to

the event finally starting both suho and Yona are together leaving hajin with the other two shaoang doesn't answer his question and states That she is going to return into her assigned position she quickly leaves while hajin is sweating bullets hoping that this clown didn't figure out her identity just yet we then see Rachel observing hajin table from the top she also notices that he's wearing the same royal black coat she offered him making her smile the event takes off with zalen introducing himself as the CEO of the company highlighting his efforts to propel Innovation he

talks about the Source of power responsible for motivating the monsters in the first place it's mana and after receiving natural condensation Mana becomes a treasure with holding amazing power from among such Treasures the white crystals of Mana are extremely valuable in the history of mankind only 480 of them have been discovered the only problem until now was identifying their usage but now Zealand has good news to share as he unveils the cloth from the artifact Thanks to his corporation's exhaustive efforts they've discovered the best way to use the white crystal the big reveal is in

the form of a white crystal resting in enclosed Chambers its purpose yet to be shown the audience offers their Applause in curiosity and amazement while hajin patiently Waits The Vacuum Cube chamber shares a connection to the Persian Empire and its Rich history while the announcement is going on Rachel is sharply observing a Bunch of shadowy figures who are suspiciously moving around at first it seemed like these guys were security staff but the princess is beginning to doubt that now she knows something bad is about to happen yet she can't act recklessly to confirm it herself

it's then she notices hajin standing up and swiftly leaving without a reason it doesn't make sense for him to go away when the event isn't even finished yet this concentrates her chilling doubts on Hajin who seems to always be caught in trouble and even has a mysterious Vibe coming from him it's hard for her to not see him as a suspicious figure Rachel directs her guards to check in on suspicious activity taking place in the hall both of them Dash away leaving her unattended Rachel plays around with her ring and activates Shadow on furl allowing

her to mask her presence this allows her to freely move around unnoticed her primary concern is going After hajin knowing that something is definitely Brewing behind the scenes both zelen and hajin considered something will happen in the Clancy Hall an investigation regarding the leton corporation's internal documents has already been conducted the item in t Clancy Hall is deemed a real artifact and its Essence is ancient Earth andwar the thing is no one knows why zeelen pulled out a risky move by putting the real artifact up for show instead of a Replica hakio thinks that the

man must be overconfident in his approach and thinks that this will somehow influence the company's stock price it seems like an okay idea in theory considering the fact that the entrance portal of the Clancy eyet is properly monitored the island was also created with the help of magic which means artificial ports of fiends are also rendered useless in this domain so in this situation hakio and his group used an aircraft to do their Job something no one would expect for fiends to do anyway hajin is walking his way to an unknown location with Rachel slowly

trailing him behind she's very cautious and wants to observe him from a distance thanks to her concealment skill she catches brief glances of him as he's fiddling with the door leading to the rooftop there's the fact that the the doors won't open for security reasons hajin thinks for a moment and reveals a hammer completely baffling Rachel with His approach she wonders if this idiot is planning to knock the door down the Clancy eyelet strictly prohibits its visitors from carrying weapons which is why a tool in this situation is the closest one could manage as a

weapon however the idea of smashing a fortified Magic Door down with a hammer sounds ridiculous this dude doesn't really care and seriously swings the hammer full speed obliterating the doors and leaving Rachel stunned to speak she can't Believe what the the just happened this dude is just casually walking with Superman levels of strength suddenly she hears the clamoring coming from the hall Destruction has begun as various fiends have begun their Onslaught they're massacring people in Cold Blood even Zealand is pinned as one of the fiends gets their hands on the white crystal the fiend is

suddenly attacked by a hero by the end of his attack the hero is pleasantly surprised that he dodged the Attack and casted a multiplication ability making this guy a really annoying opponent to deal with Jin shangin introduces himself as an Elite Hero but for some reason the copies of the villain choose to scatter and run away Shang chin calls him a coward and doesn't even want to know which one he should catch first observing the scene is the captain of the masked Syndicate waiting to make her move the monsters are wreaking havoc in the event

leading Naun to wonder what just happened there are not just fiends but also monsters for them to deal with Jun Wu worriedly comes rushing to her aid though he's covered in blood he tosses suho a sword to fight with since he couldn't bring his own junwu knows it's necessary for him to fight after after all he snatched it off a fiend and wanted him to make it work at the rooftop hajin is observing what's going on like the original novel Nate ended up duplicating himself into Eight copies and ran off with the white crystal now

one hero is pursuing one of the copies but that bastard doesn't have the crystal so it's pointless valerin is also pursuing one of the copies having disguised herself but this nade is also fake and then there's the captain chasing the real nade who does have the white crystal according to the original story she's jumped by a bunch of fiends who outnumber her in a surprise attack but they keep forgetting how powerful This woman really is she sends out a tiny little ball of black which makes her opponents severely underestimate her skill that is until they

come in contact with the sphere that is sucking the very existence of the person near it the man Roars in pain as his body is expunged into the crushing weight of the black hole the sphere pulls in the rest of the fiends as well who all are swallowed by the attack even Nate is scared to find out the move she just used a black whip Swiftly catches him and impales his body mercilessly holding him in place even though hajin is the one who wrote about her abilities he still thinks she has a deadly fighting style

focusing on the original events the white crystal will now end up in the hands of the masked Syndicate but then there's a shock turns out that in this timeline this nade was also a copy and doesn't have the real crystal on him this immediately prompts the author to check on his laptop if the Story has any planed changes still there isn't any message about it which means it shouldn't be a major or direct change rather this change is caused by Shifting the variables of the story but there's the issue that hajin is clueless on how

to handle a situation he knows nothing about that is until he remembers his stigma mark his last hope in this situation by casting magic power from the stigma and focusing on his Eagle ey ability hajin could severely increase His perceptive Powers using that he's able to scan through walls and observe the surrounding areas with ease the author has yet to find the white crystal and desperately searches for the person who has it one vehicle catches his eye the person inside has the cube vacuum but something happens causing hajin to jolt away the author staggers as

information is being flooded to his brain he overexerted the use of his powers but this is no time to rest as he Jumps off to see the white crystal hajin lands near a motorbike and finds it convenient timing he hops on and apologizes for stealing the bike hajin revs it up and rides away the scene transitions into the Reckless state of the Clancy Hall where naun is doing her best to help Evacuate the people hajin comes and asks for her causing her to get irritated that he didn't arrive sooner he tosses her something valuable and

it turns out to be the magic sword He stole from cyas he explains that it's supposed to be a weapon suiting her abilities after all she can't fight fiends without anything to use this magic sword is special in its ability to react based on the Mana capacity of the Healer as previously established Chase nayun holds a monstrous pool of Mana which means she's going to rival any fiend she encounters with this powerful weapon nayun asks why he's giving her the sword of all people but hajin Doesn't have the time to explain and decides to leave

as he's got something to take care of naun tries to stop him but he's already bolted away having acquired some distance hajin tracks the location of the vehicle containing the Mana Crystal he speeds up to narrow the Gap as quickly as possible the dude inside the car is curious about how long it will take for them to leave suddenly hjin comes crashing his bike against the car forcing a powerful impact that flips The vehicle on its head he finds himself catching a breath after putting so much strength into the tackle the dude frustratingly kicks the

door open to kill the bastard who put him in this position more importantly he's waiting waiting for his escort to arrive hajin realizes that this guy always had backup on standby which is why he was so confident just now the escort is a cargo plane but what they don't know is that the author is planning to spend the Necessary story points to send it back this greatly shocks the man holding the white crystal since they're leaving him without any explanation the aircraft simply zooms away and now this dude doesn't have anyone to fend for his

life causing hajin to draw near him he pops a suggestion for them to have a small conversation suddenly the author senses a sharp presence coming from another Direction seconds after an enormous blast descends from above obliterating Everything in its past this dude is the same brute working for the masked Syndicate and he's already taken care of Rachel too this appears to be the worst timing for this guy to show up the author's advantageous situation has just flipped he experiences an even greater shock when he sees Rachel's unconscious Body by his side preparing to fight he

readies his ether magic hajin wasn't expecting things to get this complicated Jong yyong sees what he's trying to pull Off and recommends that he doesn't engage in a fight unless he's looking to get hurt but the author isn't ready to back down and aims his gun at the briefcase containing the white crystal threatening his opponent jongan realizes that hajin concern is regarding the princess and states that he only brought her along because he figured she was also tracking down the crystal he doesn't get why she's important to this guy but he does have a bone

chilling Dilemma for the cadet he asks hajin if he's so confident about pulling the trigger before he rips Rachel's head off of her shoulders the author refuses to back down and prepares to pull the trigger reminding reming the villain that if he doesn't stop here he'll just destroy the very thing thereafter impressed by the boy's tenacity Jong Yung decides to concede and tosses Rachel's body to the ground now she's left in the middle of the battlefield Prompting the man to demand for the Mana Crystal now hajin swiftly throws the briefcase and the guy catches it

without any trouble the thing is the author wasn't really going after the crystal as he knew it was going to be out of reach for him at best he could use it as a bargaining chip to save someone's life which in this situation happened to be the princess of the royal family he wants to ask her a bunch of questions when suddenly jongyun reveals a Sinister Smile and attempts to catch the boy off guard with a Fierce and sudden strike hjin oh what the face is all you need to know about his reaction especially with

a fist blitzing at him full speed the powerful attack unleashes a shock wave impressively implying Jong yong's raw strength the Smoke Clears with the villain standing impressed by what he sees his fist was stopped just moments away from the boy's face hajin didn't even hesitate or fear the Upcoming attack it's at this moment that Jong Yong recognizes the boy's fighting Spirit he was just testing the kid and is now convinced that he's someone talented calling his performance commendable jung-yong walks away from the author who finally releases a sigh of relief after he's gone the situation

was so tense that it makes hajin collapse on his knees it was the very definition of facing a near-death encounter right as he was busy in his Thoughts a fist was checked in his face just inches away from Impact there was nothing in his Arsenal that could have saved him from the brutal attack if he had even made the slight slightest mistake his head was as good as gone well Rachel is moving which means she's awoken from her State she doesn't get what happened as things happen too fast hajin tells her that the villain already

left so there's nothing to worry about she doesn't understand what he's talking About so he explains how they've acquired the white crystal curiously the author inquires if she was also hunting for the crystal expressing the truth she reveals that she was just trailing him extending her hand Rachel shows him a bullet that she stumbled upon during the finals hajin realizes that it must have SP when he used the sniper rifle he tries to reach for it but she quickly snaps it away placing it back in her pocket Rachel was worried for him which Is what

made her Trail haene but unfortunately she got overpowered by the enemy and lost sensing the opportune moment the princess inquires why he decided to help him out back during the finals it wasn't just the midterms but also the finals which makes her wonder why he's going out of his way to help her out Rachel thinks he's intently keeping an eye on her it's a tough situation to answer so hajin slowly confesses an excuse bro says he's her Biggest fan which comes out weird he blooms in his confidence and talks about how he signed up for

her fan club online too deep down the author wonders if he overdid it after all he can't just tell her the truth Rachel happens to be one of the characters who is prone to face adversity from dangerous situations in the off chance that she dies or gets seriously injured the story would plunge to the point of no return finding herself worked up Rachel strings Together her words of confusion asking if he actually likes her then once again our boy is sweating bullets he he's got that Troublemaker Riz anyway let's revisit the state of the Clancy

eyelet which is a mess yon's annoyed that her hair got burnt while nayun hurriedly asks if he saw what happened just now the chick is confused and really doesn't get what naun is talking about she talks about how junwu was single-handedly annihilating the monsters with his Monstrous fists without even using a weapon then there was the swordmaster Kim suho with the ability to cut through anything becoming an Unstoppable Force finally there was nayun now wielding a magic sword so powerful that it practically vaporizes any monster with a single swing she's really excited about her new

weapon naun points to hajin mysterious takeoff on a bike y mentions seeing him for a second before he disappeared naun doesn't know where he Went but she's got her eyes set on that bike and I can't blame her because I do too anyway Blue Boy suho anxiously announces about Rachel's missing State her useless agents are conducting a search while naun fails to understand where she went after all she was just here prior to the attack y faces a sudden realization that the fiends must have made her a Target too it could become a hostage situation

to use the British government bribing them to Possibly surrender the Clancy eyet like always yanha is mad and pissed when suddenly people see the sight of the Damsel in Distress and her nervous experience on the bike she backs by herself relieving Yona until they realize that it's the same bike hajin used to escape the guild Master's daughter assesses the situation with everyone distracted hajin ran off in a rush and Rachel is the one who came back it only implies one thing only causing Her to overestimate Kim hajin incredible ability to defeat every fiend on his

own she stumped to even believe that she could always picture him strong but now he seems Out Of Reach for the cadet level at the double star premium Hotel nun seems to be waiting for someone hajin comes to meet her surprising that there aren't any other club members around turns out they all left to eat since he came so late she wants to treat him and expresses hurry to leave hajin Doesn't get why she's being so generous and he really can't place what's going on with every step naun takes her feelings grow stronger she stops

and decides to confront hajin facing him directly but her confession isn't a Lover's confession or anything naun embarrassingly asks if they're friends and I have to remind you guys that this is quite significant considering her backstory instead of you know accepting her words and simply saying yes hajin Strongly declines with a serious look on his face this causes her to get annoyed so she turns away claiming that it was just an unserious comment she Paces ahead hoping he forgets her words soon now here's the thing hajin likes her but he can't be friends with her

knowing the dark path he has to take in the future this guy will become responsible for taking away the life of the one person she Treasures the most so he can't hurt her feelings by deepening their Relationship he lets out a silent confession that they were never supposed to become friends the following day our boy returns to the dorms and Evangel is so excited to meet him he brought her a yummy chicken meal which is all the girl needed to excitedly run away the author is starting to really appreciate her presence now with no distraction

it's time to get back to work before vacation starts the first thing is sinking his SmartWatch with the laptop he always Found it Troublesome to hop over to the computer for unexpected story changes but he's willing to make the feature purchase now by the way Jong yong's fist didn't just stop because he wanted to it was also paired with the author's Insane luck stat which intervened at the last second preventing his death having gained story points from that he's willing to spend nearly 200 for his Smartwatch and now the syncing is completed he can access

every single Feature with this thing which makes him wonder why he delayed the purchase for so long with that issue resolved it's time to call his agent suyak hajin asks his agent if he's got what he ordered turns out the dude ordered a bike suuk explains that the minimum purchase is going to cost him at least 150 million one which is a lot hajin is prepared to go one step further by maxing out his budget range causing suak to remind him about the ridiculous price the author Proceeds with the purchase after all this is the

same guy who scored 2 billion one at the damn Casino so this is chump change to him also the story is soon about to reach the part where the packhorse Masters Guild will raid the devil's Lair dungeon consequently it will improve their stocks exponentially and all of hain's investments just now will be worth it realizing that he's about to be Filthy Rich the dude Chuckles Like a Villain the vacation Eventually comes to an end and we see hajin observing the excited people nearby speaking of social media it's been a while since he checked the main

characters posts he used to check daily to see if there was something noteworthy fast forward to this dude seeing Jung Hawk's thirst trap with an edgy caption same dude just keeps annoyingly posting like he's making money on Instagram hajin is a little disgusted by him when it comes to suho and yanha they keep a Rare social activity as for Rachel you can just imagine that her account is run by the Royal Palace finally it leaves naun who has yet to upload anything at all since the events of the casino the author understands that his words

may have stung her but it's nothing she can't get over joining class hajin is glad that things are progressing smoothly their orble teacher announces the start of the second semester and explains the necessary changes going Forward first is regarding their rankings and the second is regarding newcomers to the cube institution there was a transfer ceremony conducted recently this ceremony is responsible for bringing over some of the best Mages from top ranking magicmy they're all aspirants who want to become Heroes which means 20 new students will be added in each class completing a batch of 200

the author has already taken the extra step of memorizing their Identities for now the instructor announces their arrival the students applaud and respect as the Mages take space inside the class surprisingly one of them is someone that hajin fails to identify which makes him question if he's seen this person before when the newcomer exposes her face it turns out to be toer her appearance may seem different but the author is convinced that it's her the bigger question is why she's here the system suddenly offers Him a notification about the story change the co-author has conveniently

decided to add her to the lineup of main characters so her role seems more prominent that part worries hudin because now he has to deal with even more annoying changes in the story from toor's evil smile we can predict that something evil is brewing behind the scenes going back to hajin space he's got a brand new dorm setup thanks to his promotion to the second semester Rachel Is beaming with joy as it is spacious as hell apparently he got this privilege with his upgraded ranking as the 334th student at the institution this guy jumped over

600 ranks and now sits in the bracket of middle tier Cadets he thinks it's good enough as Evangel can jump around freely with the new space more importantly he's got his mind set on toer who he has yet to contemplate about hajin politely tells Evangel that he's heading to class and leaves for his Business the first class of the semester is conducted in an outdoor training session with their instructor the goal is to help establish a connection between the newcomers and the old this session is called the dangerous hike and while there may not be

dangerous monsters lurking on the mountain there's the fact that many traps are cleverly hidden these traps will mimic monsters created by fiends but only this time the stakes are higher as even the slightest Mistake could very well drop the cadets into the hospital this sends the cadets into despair they will be divided into teams of 12 and start off from their designated locations naun and suho are paired together in the same Squad and it appears Rachel and hajin are off on their own with the formations made the dangerous hike event begins we catch a glimpse

of nun's group who are a little intimidated by the dark atmosphere after all it was morning just now the Protagonist suho reminds them to stay clear of any traps since they may come to encounter one soon speaking of the devil one student steps onto a trigger causing a bunch of monstrous Vines to catch him the students each draw their weapons to combat the threat until eventually all of them are trapped except for the two sword fighters naun helps rescue them and they're eventually scared to death by a chick who looks like she's from The Ring

movie both suho And nayun are scared shitless realizing they just had a haunting experience supporting as always the blue boy Praises her for her performance this makes her want to ask him the same question she asked hajen she wants to confirm the friend ship between the two surprised by the obvious question suho confirms that they are and asks what's up the girl is visibly nervous and still bothered by hain's response but she chooses not to say anything she thinks That anyone in that situation would have said something normal like suho just did but hajin is

different he rejected the mere thought of her this makes the delusional girl wonder if he's out to confess his love and wants a relationship deeper than friendship anyway they're surprised to run into hajin group at the same site Gathering Together the cadets discussed the talks of an illusion barrier after all they've been circling the mountains for an hour Now Delk points to the author who ended up taking matters into his own hands and freed them from the barrier Delk Praises hajin for being a Godly Navigator with his impressive skills he remembers that it's almost time

for their team training session Jun confirms it too when asked if they've selected Partners to team up with yet both naun and suho state that they have yet to decide Jun has seen enough of the cadet Kim hajin to conclude that she's going to pick him as Her teammate her words catch both naun and delk's shocking attention there's the fact that the team has to be balanced and when weighing the cadets among the mid tiers he seems to be the most intelligent pick of the bunch naun expresses her frustration but doesn't have the words she

tries to paint him as a hard ass who is annoying to deal with in reality even naun herself is a little confused that she's going so far as to say these things Delk Whispers And Reminds her about the Dark Rumors surrounding the Sharpshooter talks of him always leaving the campus and investing his time into his expensive purchases catches both suho and nun's attention Delk carelessly talks about hajin prompting a really frustrating reaction from nayun who is the most pissed she has ever been she reminds the that she wants to know if Delk ever even saw

him doing those things with his own eyes she and Suho are infuriated that these people believe in baseless rumors they even try to stand up for hajin claiming that he's a good guy fuming with anger naun steps away while suho recommends they return to the hiking Mission the scene transitions to yanha who has just finished masking her voice considering her first meeting she doesn't want to make the slightest mistake with these guys the falling blossoms intelligence Guild a newly Developed group of agents that are directly under her control Yano wears a cloaked outfit and addresses

her team she thinks it's going smoothly so far she's already divided the falling Blossom Guild into three departments the first team will actively gather information from different guilds these are known as the spies their priority is to uncover the plans from guilds like the holy grace of God and the desolate Moon let's talk about the second team Which will be responsible for searching exclusively strong monsters or dungeons this team will be referred to as the scouts then comes the third and final team this group will operate from the Shadows away from the public eye they

will take care of any unusual activities even things as brutal as murder they're called the shadows and they play a more passive role addressing team three she tasks them with five people to conduct a research on their only condition is to Ensure they are never noticed and that they don't cause any harm to the people involved the interesting thing about this test is that four of these copies are actually fakes she's interested in seeing how these guys are going to react she's looking forward to their findings among the five people she mentioned the only real

person is Kim hajin her object of Interest the alarm has finished beeping and Morning Has Come Around sooner than hajin expected he's Surprised to find the cute little Evangel resting on his bed realizing that she's dead asleep he Pats her before hearing a cats meow coming from outside the author mentions how Phantoms are easy to cast when it comes to witch Magic but the special thing about this Phantom cat is that it's actually a real cat Evangel materialized with her powers she seems like a cute visitor for the time being and might help him later

he decides to head outside for some Breakfast and finds himself surprised to run into yanha who is curious to know where he's going the dude tells her he's off to get some food they walk together as yon brings up how his ranking shot up by a lot at the same time he admits that it won't improve Beyond this level which makes her wonder if he's thought about his future hajin states that he isn't worried at all since they have a lot of time time but to Yona time is of the essence as she reminds him

of the Probation period kickstarting in the third year in typical fashion she invites him directly to the Straits of essence Guild the same Guild that she is destined to lead in the future it would be pretty easy for him to ride the wave and become successful but shockingly he tells her that he is interested in the Forsaken Plains Guild instead still he's unsure if they'll ever accept him but he likes their mercenary style in an effort to persuade him Jana claims that maybe She can help him change his mind if only she can find him

something that he's desperately looking for the author is a little creeped out by her words and asks what kind of information he would be looking for Yana swiftly Dodges the question like a cat and also reminds him that she made sure to discipline the heck out of Gina Who messed with him going back to the classroom we see the author silently observing the protagonist suho who is soon to raid the Dungeon in the original story after returning from the vacation break and climbing the geomac mountain by himself he stumbles upon a hidden dungeon raiding a

dungeon on one's own seems like an impossible task but Kim suho challenges this idea as the main character of the story and becomes responsible for slaying the dungeon's boss there he receives an important weapon and a buff with the butterfly saplings power that weapon helps him Climb to Greater Heights the only problem being the hain's the one who has the powder with him so that weapon won't be getting boosted anytime soon that's why in this timeline Kim hajin wants to accompany suo on his journey while tackling the dungeon because this version of the story does

not favor the protagonist as much as the original did did also this greedy bastard is also in it for himself believing that he'll probably strike gold too by the evening And in his dorm the author reflects on his strategy to handle tomor there's the cute Evangel resting on his lap while he thinks of ways to come up with a solid plan before entering the dungeon raid with suo toor isn't exactly on good terms with the fiends so if her father can be located it's actually possible to convert her into an ally after all this dangerous

Mage has only one objective in sight and that is to locate her father and end his life life still it's not Like this guy knows about her father's location either making things difficult interestingly not even the tone of Truth could help him in this situation with the detective jinhu only limited to researching in Korea it's hard to task that guy too this leaves only one Prospect the only person in Kim Chong's life according to the data system the kid is called kimosop and hajin wastes no time getting in touch with him hoseop seems to be

working his ass off in an Intelligence gathering agency which is why hajin wants this guy to find someone for him hoseop is a little worried his boss will catch him but he accepts the job anyway hajin also wonders if their school bully still bullies hoseop since he's speaking like a zombie he offers hoseop a way out if he ever decides to quit his job hajin recommends that he join the falling blossoms Guild under Yan ha's command with that their call ends with hajin believing that he Strengthened Yan's agency even more it's time for the solo

dungeon raid by Kim suho who is busy meticulously practicing with his sword and perfecting his slashes hajin comes out and talks to him which makes the hero wonder if he's also training at the late hour the author thinks that suho might be overexerting himself by training this hard so early into the new semester he cleverly asks if suho is training for a dungeon Mission or something initially Blue Boy Plays it safe until hajin straight up named drops the geomac mountain dungeon claiming to know about the same dungeon he's after the protagonist is shaken and questions

how he was able to figure it out hajin acts like he saw him when he found the dungeon pointing to His Brilliant eyes hajin emphasizes that he's good at what they can do he lays out a proposition for suho wanting to join him for the dungeon Mission together even willing to split the Rewards in a 90 to10 ratio hajin is fine with tagging along and letting suho do what he wants it's quite the proposition suho confirms that he did discover the dungeon last week it looked smaller than the others so he felt like the challenge

was doable for him on his own recognizing the dangers of raiding alone hajin thinks that it would be wise to take someone else along suho claims that he's unsure about hajin being a reliable teammate for the raid so for now he Wants to test hajin skills to see if he's up to good yeah you can tell the author wasn't expecting his own main character to challenge him out of the blue the only way hajin remotely has a chance against suho is if he's handicapped in some way but even then the difference in their abilities would

be far too great still he thinks it's better to prioritize evasion in the upcoming fight hajin accepts the idea however he has a complaint regarding the Open ground since it would be pretty disadvantageous to him suho is in serious mode and explains that he's not here to test weapons and there's no point for for hajin to try and win the fight after all he's going to stop on his own when he feels necessary hajin realizes that this dude is in some real testing mode and isn't willing to back down he turns to use his intelligence

as his only saving grace the wooden sword he's using as a training weapon is Infused with Mana immediately rendering hajin bullets useless if he ends up doing that he's about to get humiliated by suho that means the only reliable weapon in his Arsenal right now is his luck Factor suho wants hajin to give them the green signal to start the fight he's trying to drag this out while slowly fiddling with his Stat system with all settings cleared hajin thinks it's time they start ayria suho starts the fight by dashing right in his face At maximum

speed hajin activates bullet time to get him a few seconds as a cushion to react to his lightning fast speed thanks to that he can see suu's sword trajectory before his attack is even casted with a few slashes dodged hajin manages to evade most of suho's outlash still even for him he's getting chipped against the Monstrous speed realizing that he can't be on the back foot forever hajin goes on the offensive by shooting a bullet in his face suho Casually reacts and this time he's the only one going on the evasive the fight is a

really humbling experience for the author after all despite the activation of a literal time slowing ability hajin can't evade suho's attacks the fight will continue to put him at a greater disadvantage if he lets it drag on he's trying his best to manipulate suho into making a small error sensing the opportunity suho vanishes and appears right behind hajin in a flash of a Second since his back is left wide open he rushes to use ether magic to pull him away by attaching himself to a tree the protagonist's Monstrous attack shatters the ground which impresses suho's

expectations at the same time suho rushes with full speed to get right up in hajin face apparently this is exactly the thing our boy wanted as he had been baiting suho into stepping onto his jacket the moment he sets foot an explosion sends suho flying into the air Totally catching him off guard thanks to that suho crashes onto the ground while hajin timely gets the better of him the fight is over with a Glock pointed towards the protagonist's head hajin assesses that while it didn't do any fatal or meaningful damage the cadet's jacket he modified

was a trap made using story points the unexpected gimmick got the better of suho who senses hajin determination and agrees to go along with him for the dungeon raid the two Friends shake hands marking the start of their partnership fast forward to one of the desolate factories in suan a piece of glass shatters on the ground turns out Jong Yong broke the Relic according to drunk's orders it's a calculated strategy to double the value of The Relic the only thing left is to activate the white crystal drun initiates the activation causing the white crystal to

send a beam of concentrated light the light rearranges the material and Reforms it into a weapon in the form of magic swords these are copies of the original made from just mere fragments drun thinks they don't have to look for anything else as the result of this test proves the creation of fake weapons that are stronger than low-grade relics with one fragment they could make 30 swords as for the total amount drun estimates 600 swords to be made even if they sold one sword at 800 million one they would earn a staggering 500 billion one

in Profit which is one hell of an amount that's nearly $400 million Jong Yong realizes they've stepped on the most valuable lottery ticket valerin shares news similarly favorable to the group she talks about the pack hor Masters Guild who intend to raid the dungeon soon that Guild is their next Target as the captain of the masked Syndicate intends to sees everything from them conducting a Battle Analysis of their fight suho remembers how hajin left a Dozen openings in his movements and yet there wasn't a single time that he managed to strike him down to make

things even more surprising he used an unusual attack at the end suho still doesn't understand what happened there he wonders if it was the result of physical Force driving him away or perhaps a surge of Mana coming to a smile The Lovable protagonist expresses his failure to understand hajin Powers still it's clear to him now that hajin Is actually quite powerful and the only reason he's hiding his powers is for his own benefit it helps him relate to someone other than him as suo is also muddled with hiding himself he just wasn't expecting someone else

to mirror him like that anyway he hears a sound coming from nearby and realizes that it's naun practicing at the park suho's voice startles her out of nowhere making her embarrassed she's also surprised that he's going home at such a late hour This Sparks a brilliant idea in this guy's head he casually tells her about his meet up with hajin which makes her wonder why they met up to tease this balloon of embarrassment suho tells her that they were cheering for her nayun explodes at him prompting suho to reveal that they were lightly sparring with

each other it's quite the surprising Revelation since nayun generally believed suho to be way stronger than him which means there's no point in Sparring suho decides to keep their matters private making her sad she's done with his teasing and decides to resume her training being the helpful and supporting friend as always suho offers nayun advice in handling her sword he demonstrates just how fast one can swing their Weapon by easing their grip just a bit the beautiful slash leaves her stunned for Words She's So Am am that she requests another demonstration from him in the

end suho Ends up training nun for a while fast forward to her resting in her bedroom she remembers suho's offer to help her out with her sword training at this level she's starting to get the hang of things naon jumps up all frustrated and annoyed she looks to gaming as her one means of escape from reality she grabs the VR headset and equips it this game is recently taking an uprising in this world for image training the game is called the Gladiators of the century Tournaments about the game are held every season and brought casted

live making the winners so popular that they could take up their household names the game is particularly unique because unlike other games it doesn't boast a status or item system in effect one has to fully utilize their strength to control the trajectory of the fight nun has an impressive record of 98 wins with only 17 losses she doesn't care about her rank for now and thinks it's best to Find someone for a match her eyes are drawn towards a sword Warrior called the extra 7 this guy has an equal amount of wins and losses he's

also Platinum which makes it seem like the ideal Target she's expecting a couple of hits to finish the job requesting a duel with the guy extra 7 accepts her request their match is about to begin in 3 seconds nauan is actively assessing her opponent and is ready to see how this person will initiate their attacks what She didn't expect was for this guy to start coming at her before the countdown finished they exchanged the first sword Clash which puts naun on the disadvantage what's more is that this guy grabs her by the collar and then

throws her off balance with a kick from underneath extra seven renders the killing blow and that's how naun lost to a guy with a 50/50 stat ratio this makes her so mad that she thinks that guy is cheating she requests for an immediate Rematch but winds up defeated a second time so a third match follows between the two the outcome stays the same as naun is defeated again one more round would change things right no the stickman naun is killed again she's seriously annoyed at having to accept her helpless State while her opponent stares her

down the guy wants to leave to get to sleep while she's begging for another rematch she learns that he's usually active around this time so naun Requests that he teach her a bunch of new skills each time they run into each other extra 7 is okay with that and decides to log off the author puts off his headset not knowing why that kid was so stubborn just now he won seven times in a row his goal was to test the random buff system inside the game and he used it on the headset to enhance his

stats immensely the random buff system is proving to be more helpful than he originally intended the investment was Costly but it strengthens the properties of any equipment which takes his console experience to another level this makes it feel like his senses have been sharpened and as a consequence boosted it's a little underwhelming that the maximum boost is only 44% but hajin thinks it could soar higher with the luck effect Evangel is out here eating a whole cake by herself hajin realizes that he has to actually parent the child and snatches the cake away she sobs

Begging for another slice but hajin pulls the ultimate anti-child attack he puts it on the top shelf then he lifts her tiny little body and Promises to get her something even more delicious in the morning this relieves some of her sadness hajin promises to follow up with his words as long as she doesn't eat cake tonight while she's fast asleep he checks his Smartwatch and finds a message coming from suho who invited him for the raid Meetup wearing a smile the Author is satisfied with the date and believes everything is proceeding like he planned the

only thing left now is clearing the raid a few days after that his training session continued all the same classes were no different either finally inside the game he unknowingly ripped naun apart but she just got all the more Curious to learn his moves since he's a lousy teacher hajin doesn't have actionable advice what's really confusing to naun is his 50% win rate Especially when he's so much better between the two to come up with an excuse extra7 tells her that he barely cares about the outcome of the fight she admires this side of him

because naun takes losses very personally extra s believes it's good to end things here for the day she's hoping to see him tomorrow as if she's dead certain he'll be here at the same time nun's face is beaming with joy as she waves him goodbye hajin logs off confirming he'll Be back the game has taken up space as a part of his daily routine now he's actually surprised to find this person being so polite still he doesn't get what to call her since her username looks like a keyboard mashing attempt yuto's six-man yes I did

the extra effort of spelling it all out for you guys so please like this video now hajin brainstorms what could possibly mean by her username that's until all the puzzle pieces fit into one name and that's naun However he just can't see herself behaving so politely like that their behavior is different so the author is convinced that it might be a guy behind the screen going back to the brat herself we see that she's getting better and better with her swings suho is similarly impressed she talks about how she's playing a game and it's really

helping her improve her skill Blue Boy realizes that she's definitely talking about the Gladiators of the century he Doesn't play the game but did hear from others about how useful it is naun explains that she ended up finding a master inside the game with amazing skills he helps her train each day he's the one person who really makes her feel excited to fight against she talks about how has an aggressive and precise style to cut down his opponent each step is calculated and allows for a personalized close combat experience suho thinks this guy must be

pretty sharp and probably is A hero of some kind naun claims that she remembers asking but it didn't turn out like that suddenly hajin voice draws her attention as she gives him an embarrassed look hajin is surprised to find the two of them together and asks what's up suho tries to mention their training but she smacks him shut by acting like they just met each other bro has a surprised look on his face while naun cutely communicates with her annoyed face hajin thinks they should Hurry and get going prompting suho to say goodbye curious naun

asks where they're headed suho acts like it's a personal matter and decides not to clarify details before leaving hajin tells her to have fun training nun's a little baffled and finds herself really confused to see these two getting on good terms with each other she knows that suho was joking around when he teased her earlier but now it's really starting to make her wonder if they Might be meeting because of her nun's delusions are getting the better of her she thinks it doesn't make sense for hajin to do that especially after he rejected her friendship

this hilarious girl acts like she doesn't care one second but on the next she's secretly tailing them behind nayun spots them chatting when suddenly hajin does bring up nun's topic which surprises her a bit this sells her delusions even more the girl is now convinced that he's in love Or something both suho and hajin share lunch before heading to the dungeon in suwan they'll have to be cautious since suan is considered the single most dangerous area in the capital the emerc event of monsters and dungeons left a permanent ground deformation reducing the place to nothing

more than mountains because of that the western part of suan became a restricted area as for the geomac mountain it's located right at the border the author internalizes that He created many hidden pieces in the world yet to be discovered for some of these pieces he can't obtain with his one strength but that would also create the risk of leaving them in the hands of the antagonists of the story if he goes to the dungeon with a hero like suho hajin is confident that he might be able to obtain one one of the Hidden Pieces

by himself the mere thought of it attracts suho's attention as they're finishing up their meal suho didn't Bring any cash with him so he's the one who's going to take care of equipment and preparation suddenly one person enters the restaurant with a completely covered look their outfit puts hajin at unease the person physically shakes seeing him and hurries away to make their request seeing their state hajin realizes what's going on this evil Punk probably figured it out using his observation ability dude boldly calls out Yana based on her purple hair he Tries to be as

loud as possible to attract her attention of course hajin knows that this has to be her since she usually can't eat normal food without attracting attention he requests her to come and share a meal with them making her condition even worse being thoroughly humiliated like this she takes her order and bolts off without even paying hajin decides to cover for the girls Bill and mentions how yon ha did her best not to show her face for Three whole days it's time for Friday and the day of the dungeon raid suho's all ready and leads the

way deep in the mountains they both make their way having walked many miles the geomac mountain is a dangerous location since it's right next to the restricted area hajin wants to stay sharp for their surroundings until they arrive suho marks the location and shows the entrance to the dungeon hajin thinks it's reasonable to assume why it's hard To find because of the small entrance knowing that the opening is narrow suho reminds him that they'll have little chance of running back out it's dangerous and he wants his teammate to prepare for the consequences but hajin is

as best prepared as always he whips out his baby the golden deagle claiming that it packs quite the punch just to be safe he invested some points to make light bullets while they won't be extremely effective against the high Tier boss monster the author thinks suho will be more than capable of handling everything else as they're about to head inside hajin extends his hand for suho to hold it draws a confused look from the guy because he doesn't get what he is doing hajin explains that the pathway inside is dark so it will be tough

to navigate otherwise a flashlight is just going to draw attention from Monsters suho loves the idea as the two clasp each other's hands and yes I can't Believe I said that suho mentions how the cave unusually has a narrow entrance for how wide it is inside it's also way too cold here suddenly hajin senses something and recommends they wait a moment to his utter shock there's a second opening to the dungeon something not even he knows about there's just no way activating his perceptive eyes hajin scans the other entrance and discovers a bunch of intruders

approaching hearing their every step he knows their drawing Closer and closer from the other side the scanning ability has revealed two men from the other side suho doesn't get what's bothering him but he tells him to be quiet concentrating on their conversation he fails to identify their association with any group however based on the evil energy radiating off of them he can tell they're up to no good at last the system informs him about a critique from the co-author who has decided to edit the raid sequence the Co-author found the dungeon raid quite boring and

small compared to the rewards promised that's why they decided to modify the whole of the dungeon by including it as the hidden stage of the devil's Lair dungeon what an unbelievable change this means that the two dungeons have formed a connection in this timeline worried he asks suho about the date it's the 14th of August the worst possible date as it's the day the packhorse Master's Guild plans to raid The devil's Lair with that in mind he's almost convinced that both of these men belong to the same Guild he wonders if they just came here

to scout for the day still it's causing hajin to get tensed up which worries suho the author breaks the ice by revealing the location of The Intruders the packhorse Masters Guild is known to be one of the strongest all around these guys only have mid to high tier fake Heroes even someone like the protagonist of the story would struggle In this case which begs the question what should they do now Lady Luck is on their side as it turns out the two fiends came here just to scout this part of the dungeon they decide to

regroup with the main party and head back hajin takes note of the situation and thinks that it's the only chance for them to defeat the boss as soon as possible first he activates his Eagle Eye and then infuses it with the magic powers of his stigma now he can see far and wide Even making the boss monster known having marked the navigation hajin jots down the location and places emphasis on beating the boss quickly around the same time in the suan devil's Lair the main party finds themselves exhausted from the hunt the leader of the

raid comes in contact with both of his subordinates that he sent to scout this guy is jiny Young The Guild Master of the fish group they pass him the information about a secret opening leading to a hidden stage Jiny young is satisfied hearing that and tells him to stay put instead the main party will be coming to them the situation is turning out really bad for Our Heroes because Jin young is more interested in exploring the hidden stage instead of the main dungeon before leaving one of the group members points out how two members are

missing from the main group tapping their earpiece they draw attention from another kaing seems to have opened a giant portal of black Behind him even though no one asked him to kaing is irritated waiting for things to roll out he doesn't want to explain the specifics of the portal to the person he's speaking to jingyong commands Callen to close it shut at once but he just casually plays with the earpieces jingyong is pissed and leaps forward to attack him but with a point of a finger the man is brutally murdered with a spike piercing his

skull and then slashes his body in half his scattered Remains hit the ground leaving the rest of the fiends to experience sheer horror at the sight they confront kaling's recklessness when the real perpetrator seizes the opportunity to come out it's everyone's favorite bad the captain of the masked Syndicate she releases waves of dark energy before taking down every single one of them all by herself the only reason she didn't kill them is because she's waiting for the stock prize to experience a boom so Now the captain wants to explore the hidden stage connected to this

dungeon and she wants to do it on her own Kelling questions if the plan changed to some effect she expresses that the other two Targets who entered the dungeons aren't their enemies but rather their candidates this is a test to determine if they're worthy of being recruited morphing her body in a shadowy fluid the captain proceeds to chase them down meanwhile the hidden stage is teaming With low-level Undead Monsters hajin has been shooting them down one after the other with his gun since long range is more favorable in this situation he takes care of suho's

side too who can barely navigate in the dark setting the fact that he was able to beat all of them with ease really proves hajin strength impressing the likes of suho still they don't have enough time so he urges them to hurry the undead monsters are blasted and cut down by the Unstoppable Duo there seems to be an endless amount waiting for them but thankfully they're so weak that it isn't a problem to deal with them at last suho stumbles upon some writing which indicates to hajin that they've finally found the boss location something is

scribbled on the wall in an old language suho wonders if their Smartwatch would be of any help in this case hudin activates it for scanning and realizes that it's an elaborate riddle suho States that he's heard of many dungeons of the like in the actual story he wasn't able to solve this riddle and merely translate it at best that's why he had to seek Yan's help who used her intelligence Guild to work it out but right now they don't have the luxury of time since he's the author the dude obviously knows the answer to the

riddle since he made it it's actually lightning and the answer causes the writing to disappear suddenly the ground beneath Them starts to shake and the wall splits open with a loud Rumble leading to a pathway inside turns out the answer was correct the riddle wasn't even his personal invention as hajin copied it from another story he breaks down the riddle mentioning that lighting and thunder both occur together but always perceived at different timings based on location lightning appears first and then the sound of thunder is heard due to the difference in speed suho thinks This

guy is a genius with his quick thinking not knowing the truth about the situation he readies his gun to finish the dungeon raid the both of them head inside while the captain is once more impressed by hajin individual ability she thinks his decision-making capabilities and forward leaning approach makes him an amazing person despite being a small dungeon he was able to navigate this far in the span of 10 minutes without help this information Is plentiful evidence and enough reason for the captain to consider recruiting him to the masked Syndicate still one aspect seems to bother

her she has yet to see him kill anyone with without hesitation in sight she also overhears the two lunatics that were sent to scout the hidden stage the captain realizes that hajin isn't aware of these guys being fiends themselves so she thinks they'll be perfect as her test subjects the two Cadets are prepared to confront The boss who is sitting on his throne he's The Swordsman of Ruin and the master of the dungeon The Swordsman is peering them down with his sharp eyes he moves with a Godly speed concentrating his attention on suho who didn't

even know what happened just now he quickly rushes to grab his sword when hajin Roars his name turns out that he was spaced out but suho is convinced that the boss probably used some kind of teleportation skill just now but then he Realizes that the sheer energy coming from The Swordsman of Ruin is enough to destroy his composure this is an upper intermediate level monster that is even capable of human speech a creature far above the Realms of other monsters he has previously faced his confidence is flailing as The Swordsman of Ruin plunges his sword

promising them a quick and easy death this sword is hajin object of Interest he tries to talk to the protagonist who seems to be all good Now because he's confident in sword fighting suho's Talent primarily rests in swordsmanship and he's supposed to reach True Perfection in his craft when facing another sword User it's impossible for him to lose hajin explains an important detail to him apparently the sword is the real boss and the voice from earlier also came from The Sword the Knight is a common corpse in the original story suho only figures this part

out in the middle of Their fight but hajin wants to rush things and hopes to end this quickly he plans to Target the Knight and instructs suho to concentrate on the sword this way he can cover him before they're able to finish their chat The Swordsman of Ruin leaps ahead to catch them off guard it doesn't even make sense that this is happening according to the author the attack leaves a crater making hajin worry about what happened to suho being the main character he ended up blocking It with his blade at the last moment their

initial Clash separates the two Swordsmen suho dashes right back at the Knight who is impressed by his abilities suho catches him off guard with an aerial strike the Knight reacts timely and arrogantly assumes that he has caught his opponent but when the smoke settles his sword has only hit the ground suho uses his impressive speed to outmaneuver his opponent he attacks the knight from his blind spot aiming right For the sword just like hajin told him the stab connected but not where he wanted it only hurt his body but that's not enough the Knight commends

his swordsmanship having blocked the attack by sacrificing his arm not only that the Demonic sword intends to possess suho's capable body for itself
