He Has No Skill, But He Can Copy Talents INFINITE Times! Manhwa Recap

The story begins in the future, specifically on August 17, 2035 in the capital of South Korea, Su. It had already been 5 years since the great catastrophe struck humanity on August 17, 2030. This calamity was triggered by the appearance of portals that released monsters all over the world, appearing everywhere. Since then, humanity had become prey to these creatures, suffering a severe decline due to their Relentless invasions. The protagonist, Troy Jan Huk, was sitting on top of a building, waiting for a specific event to occur. He reflected on the state of the world and the survival

prospects of the remaining 40% of humanity still alive. Suddenly, he felt an unusual movement behind him and turned to investigate. He saw several monsters below the building where he was. After counting, he identified six class sea monsters of mid to high level and one Class of monster. It was exactly as his older brother Gchal had described. Jon used his binoculars to closely observe the area, knowing that the event he had been waiting for was about to happen. Everything Gchal had said was about to come true. Suddenly, a wave of energy surged, forming something strange, which

Jun monitored closely. He realized that this energy was due to the formation of what is known as a sudden portal. He was right. Within seconds, a massive Dimensional portal materialized. He was intrigued by rumors that people could emerge from these portals, although it seemed highly unlikely based on its appearance. Contrary to his expectations, human hands and feet emerged from the portal. A person jumped out, struggling to escape and eventually succeeding. After calming down, the individual took a deep breath and stood up. He was euphoric to have returned and began to scream in celebration, relieved To

have finally escaped the dimension in which he had been trapped because of the portal. However, his happiness was short-lived as the class C monsters Jon had seen earlier along with the class and monster notice the human presence and advanced to devour him. Realizing the danger, the person cursed his bad luck, lamenting that he couldn't even have 5 minutes of peace. "What keeps attracting these creatures to me? Will they ever stop chasing me?" he grumbled. John, on the other hand, was thrilled to see this individual, recognizing that this was the moment he had been waiting for

all morning. The monsters began their ruthless assault on the man who had emerged from the portal. Jun watched with pleasure, refraining from stepping in to help. He knew the man didn't need assistance and watched as he defeated many of them on his own. The man used his unique technique, sword cradle, to eliminate the remaining monsters. This Technique was highly effective, even though the situation would typically require at least 10 highlevel hunters to handle such a number of monsters. Though severely injured, he spared no effort to defeat them. He cast powerful spells and used combat techniques

to drive the creatures back, preventing their advance. In just one hour, he eliminated six class sea monsters. An extraordinary feat for any hunter. Even Jun, watching from a distance, was impressed and Surprised by the man's ability to handle so many enemies alone. Now, only the strongest monster remained, the class of boss, awaiting a final confrontation. This monster was so formidable that even if all five class S hunters in the world worked together, defeating it would be nearly impossible or extremely difficult. Jon watched the events unfold with intense excitement, even though he had heard about them

many times before. Hearing about such events was one thing, But witnessing them was a completely different experience. Especially because the true power of the clone master was about to be revealed, and Jun would finally see the impressive skills for which he was famous. If he waited just a little longer, that incredible power would rightfully become his. The class of monster launched its attack. But fortunately, the hunter managed to avoid it. Using his magical energy, he jumped away from the attack and propelled Himself into the air. Then he intensified the impact of his powerful strike, channeling

it toward the monster with relentless force. This technique, known as blade, was sharp and precise, capable of cutting through anything. Not even the monster's tough and durable body was an exception, and the hunter managed to bring it down with a single blow. The monster immediately collapsed to the ground. Jud noted that the battle had come to an end, and it had been an Impressive, breathtaking display beyond any understanding. He decided it was time to go down and begin his plan, heading toward the hunter, who had collapsed from exhaustion. Upon reaching him, Jim reflected that everything

so far had unfolded exactly as Gch had described. With a light movement, he shipped the hunter, asking if he was okay or feeling anything unusual. He remembered G. Chow's words, who had mentioned saving that hunter on that day And acquiring his powers. Shortly afterward, the hunter began to regain consciousness, coughing heavily due to extreme fatigue and severe injuries. Jun felt confused, not knowing how to help him and regretted not asking his brother for more details. Finally, with great difficulty, the hunter asked what the exact year was. Jud responded that it was August 2035. The hunter

tried to stand, displaying anguish and sorrow. Then he exclaimed in frustration that he Had spent nearly 30 years trapped in the dungeon, though only 5 years had passed here. Jun tried to calm him, advising him not to exert himself due to the severity of his injuries and suggesting he rest. The hunter replied that it was already too late for that. Jun understood this reality well, as he was certain the hunter would die that day, regardless of anything. The hunter continued, explaining that all of it had happened because he had used nearly all His power trying

to reopen the portal. He let out a bitter laugh full of regret, which awakened a deep sense of despair in Jun, who remained silent. The hunter made a specific request, taking out a photo of his family and asking Jun to find them and take care of them as they might still be alive. Jon replied that it was a great loss as at that moment he was in no position to care for anyone. The hunter insisted, stating that he was not making the request Without reason. He would give his powers to Jun in return. However, to

transfer his ability, he needed to know Jun's first name. Faced with the question, Jun hesitated, diving into thoughts about the true reason he was there. The hunter, realizing his time was running out, introduced himself as Park Kang Ho and repeated the question. John then recalled his past and the events that had led him to anticipate that moment. He remembered the threat he had received From a hunter with whom he had a troubled relationship, Jonathan, who had invaded his secret hideout in June 208, about 23 years in the future. Jonathan shouted at Jun, daring him to

try and escape from his hands again. At that time, Jun had the ability to copy the powers of any hunter, but was severely injured with serious wounds covering Mosu's body. He responded that it seemed there was no escape this time and asked Jonathan who had revealed his location. Jonathan revealed that Chay Jun Su, the rank 16 hunter, had betrayed him for a million dollars. Chay Junu had promised not to pursue him for a year, but as soon as he received the money, he betrayed Jun and revealed his whereabouts. Upon hearing this, Jun felt a rising

fury, realizing he had been deceived. Jonathan added that now that he had obtained the answers he wanted, it was time to finish Jun once and for all. Jun lowered his head, reliving the Memories of his parents' deaths, the false accusations that led to his imprisonment, and the car accident that claimed his siblings lives. He felt as if he had already lost everything, he pulled a small magic stone from his pocket and asked Jonathan if he recognized it. Jonathan's expression turned to pure shock, fearing the stone was exactly what he thought it was. Jen continued, explaining

that it was the legendary relic mentioned in various Rumors known as the return stone. Upon hearing the name of the stone, Jonathan flew into a rage and ordered his subordinates to kill Jun immediately before he could activate it. But it was too late. The stone began to glow, activating its power. Jun gave a faint smile and looking at Jonathan said he would see him in the past. wishing the stone would take him to a time when his siblings were still alive. The memories of his past and the events that shaped Him flooded his mind and

he reaffirmed his determination to carry out his plan. Finally, he answered Kang's question, revealing that his true name was Troy Jun Hick. He reached out to Kang who felt relief that they had finally come to an agreement. Kang began the process using his power to transfer the system. This time, the future belonged to Troy Jun Hick. As soon as the process began, the system issued a warning stating that the power transfer would result in the Complete destruction of Kang's body. He only laughed manically, saying he was going to die anyway, and ordered the transfer to

proceed. Minutes later, the system confirmed the successful transfer into Choy Jun Huk's body with data being progressively added. The system analyzed its new host, gradually integrating the acquired skills and capabilities. Jun observed Kang's lifeless body on the ground and heard his final warning not to let his guard down. Although the Transfer had been completed, caution was essential to prevent something unexpected from reversing it. Surprised, Jun questioned Kang about the meaning of his words. But before he could get an answer, he felt a presence behind him. He quickly turned and came face to face with an

A-class monster that had not yet been eliminated. Kang let out a bitter laugh, murmuring that life was truly full of surprises. The monster war furiously, preparing to attack Jon and Kang, threatening the success of the transfer. Kang remarked that in fairy tales, heroes always returned home and lived in peace. Catching Jun's attention, who was looking around in panic, he declared that he had already lost all hope. He urged Jun to run before it was too late, saying that this bad luck was still better than losing his life here. He added that this world was chaotic

and to survive, he needed to adapt to its madness. However, Kang was Perplexed to see Jun holding a metallic object and staring down the monster. Shocked, he asked what Jun was thinking, exclaiming that it was pure madness. Jun responded firmly that he had never been more lucid and aware than in that moment, stating he was tired of running and hiding over and over again. The colossal monster approached, observing them without attacking. When it finally reached Jun, he stood his ground, ready for whatever came next. To their Surprise, the creature simply turned and walked away without

doing anything. Kang was stunned while Jun felt relief for not having to fight that moment. Kang commented that they had been unbelievably lucky, but Jun replied that the credit was his. He explained that the monster hadn't attacked because it was severely injured. However, something caught his attention. Kang's body began to gradually fade away. Kang asked Jun to fulfill his promise to find and Protect his family. He warned that if the promise was broken, he would never forgive him and would curse him even after death. Then Kang disappeared completely and 100% of the system data was

finally transferred into Choi Jun Hook's new body. Although he had expected this outcome, Jun felt deep sorrow. Suddenly, a searing pain surged through his body as if his bones were breaking. It was the beginning of his awakening process. He knew the Transformation would be painful, but he hadn't imagined such intensity. It felt as if all his bones were being shattered and rebuilt while his muscles were torn apart and regenerated. Jun let out a scream of agony as the process continued. After an exhausting night, a wagon rolled through the abandoned city. The driver, enjoying the warmth

of the sun, wore a relatively cheerful expression. Upon seeing a familiar figure, he recognized June. Surprised to See him there, he wondered to himself what Jun was carrying and where he was going. Sensing someone nearby, Jun turned and saw the driver watching him. Recognizing him, he smiled and asked what had brought him there. Kai responded with curiosity, saying he should be the one asking that question, especially since he had swapped shifts with Jun the night before and had the day off. Jun chuckled awkwardly and explained that he had to return, but Ended up having trouble

with monsters and got stuck until sunrise. Kai reacted angrily, exclaiming that Jun was crazy for spending the whole night in that place. He asked if Jun had a death wish. Jun just laughed and asked him to stop scolding, assuring him everything was fine and that thanks to Bang Bang, he had found the real treasure. Then he asked why Kai was there so early, commenting that it was still too early for work and asking about the rest of The team. Kai replied that he had started waking up earlier lately and that's why he left before the

usual time. He added that the rest of the team was already on their way. Jun laughed but noticed that Kai as always was hiding something. After all, Park Kiel, the team leader of Hyena that day, was the true owner of the copy ability that Jun had stolen. The primary copy ability allowed its user to replicate and use the powers of other awakened beings. However, Kiol never had much talent for making the most of it. In his previous life, this limitation made him a target, and he ended up being hunted by other awakened ones until one

day, his body was found in an abandoned building. Jon climbed onto the wagon and told Kichchu he would go ahead, bidding him a good day. On the way, Jim reflected on how Kichchu's downfall in the past was mainly caused by the exposure of his power copying ability. The revelation Caused a major stir among the awakened, as his ability to easily replicate powers made him a significant threat. However, Jun had crafted a plan to avoid the same fate. Casting a glance to the side, he saw three B-class magic crystals and four C-class ones. He felt a

slight pang of guilt, knowing Kichi would never be able to find them. Still, he convinced himself that those crystals could save his life, leaving him no choice but to take them. The problem was He didn't know how to use them properly. Just one of those crystals could guarantee a comfortable retirement if sold, but that option was not part of his plans, rendering them practically useless for now. Nevertheless, he knew they were extremely rare. Kchul's words from his past life echoed in his mind. Right after Jon acquired Kang's power, Kiiel had expressed deep frustration over never

being able to obtain any magic crystals. He mentioned that when He returned the next day, there were none left, and he was furious because no one else had been there besides him. The more he thought about the past, the more he remembered Kchule's regret for not securing those crystals. For that reason, Jun decided not to make the same mistake. After acquiring Kang's power, he began collecting those crystals early on. If they had been monster cores, the need to sell them in complete secrecy would have been even greater. If caught Selling or possessing highlevel magic energy

stones, the Awakened Association, and the government would surely investigate their origin. In the worst case scenario, he wouldn't even get their full value and might be forced to sell them for a pittance. Even worse, he could become a target for hunters and end up as a lifeless body in an abandoned building. The only solution was to register quickly as an awakened one. Jun picked up the phone and called His friend Kang Shiel Min, who answered playfully, asking what had prompted such a busy man like Jun to call him. Jun replied excitedly, saying he had come

across some unexpected money and wanted to spend a nice evening with a dear friend. Hilman laughed surprised, saying he couldn't believe Jun not only wanted to go out with him, but would also cover the bill. Jun said it was the least he could do, but added that it wouldn't be entirely free. He needed a small favor. Later, Jun visited a local shop that presented the items he had collected to the merchant, asking about their value. The man assessed them and said they had some utility, offering $600 for the lot. Dissatisfied, Jon argued that finding decent

items was becoming increasingly difficult and demanded a better price. The merchant explained that in the past, those items might have fetched up to $800, but the current situation was complicated since the demand for Expensive goods had drastically decreased. He added that the population was shrinking and rising costs were making people more cautious with their spending. At that moment, two children ran toward Jun, crying and calling out to him. When they reached him, they clung tightly, sobbing as they said they were terrified when he didn't come home the night before, fearing he had abandoned them forever.

Trying to calm them down, Jun asked them to stop crying And talk to him first. He asked why they were there so early and why they hadn't gone to school yet. The merchant stepped in, questioning why Jun was scolding the kids, pointing out that they'd spent the night worried and couldn't sleep because of his absence. The merchant added that while money was important, Jun should also consider the emotional impact his absence might have on the children if something were to happen to him. Realizing they were still shaken, Jun Spoke in a comforting tone, assuring them

there was no reason to worry. The children wiped away their tears and said they had stopped crying. Upon hearing that, Jun told them to go home and prepare some meat for lunch. Their faces lit up with joy, showing great excitement about the meal. The younger girl, Cha Yun Jang, approached Jun and said the grandmother from the upstairs floor wanted to see him as soon as he returned. Jun asked if she met the land Lady, and Yun Jang confirmed, adding that the woman mentioned the overdue rent. Jun went up to apartment 601 with the children and

prepare a hearty lunch filled with delicious dishes. The children ate with enthusiasm and joy, but Jun noticed the grandmother hadn't touched her food. She asked why he had prepared such a feast and what the occasion was. John replied that he thought of her when passing by the butcher shop. The grandmother commented That she hoped he would save the money and food for his siblings. Jon apologized for the delay and handed over the overdue rent. The elderly woman said he could have paid later since she had planned to charge only half considering the difficulties he was

going through. Jun insisted it wasn't necessary, but Chong Su intervened, saying that in hard times, people should help each other and that Jun should accept the offer. The grandmother smacked Chang Su with her Chopsticks, saying she didn't need anyone talking as if they'd own the house. Chang Su grown in pain and complained that chopsticks were meant for eating, not for cracking skulls, adding that the house would be his once she died. The grandmother became even more annoyed, raised the chopsticks threateningly, and scolded him for neglecting his studies, which had caused her a night of stomach

pains. Chong Su defended himself, saying he wasn't Wasting time, but studying combat techniques for hunters, preparing for his future awakening. The grandmother responded sarcastically, saying that if everyone learned on their own, there would be no need for universities. Changu argued that this was the era of awakened beings and hunters, the foundation of the current world, and that the grandmother didn't understand anything about it. She turned to Jun, asking him to say a few words to make Her grandson see reason. But at that moment, Jun's phone rang, seeing that it was the person he had been

waiting for. Jun stepped away from the conversation and answered. Scholman informed him that he had spoken with a team leader and secure a meeting for him. Jun excited asked if it was true. Tulleman confirmed but explained that the job wouldn't be paid. However, if Jun performed well, he could be accepted as a regular team member even in a lower ranking role. Jun Agreed immediately. Surprised by the sudden change in attitude, Chulman commented that Jun had never accepted simple roles like carrying tools. Jun silently reflected that he didn't care about the position. He was doing it

to help Chulman. He replied that work with Hyena had become more difficult and that he was exploring other options. Cole Min informed him that the team would leave at 8:00 a.m. and that Jun needed to be at the west gate no later than 7:00 a.m. Jun felt relieved to see that his plan was progressing as intended, taking his first steps toward his goal. The next morning, he arrived at the west gate of the wall, waiting for the rest of the team. A voice called out to him, interrupting his thoughts about copying the defensive members abilities

and heading straight to the association. It was Shulman laughing when he saw Jun's excitement and commenting that he had arrived early just as agreed. Jun Greeted Shumen and laughed with him all while continuing to plan his registration as a defensive member to obtain the resources he needed. Koulan took Jun to the team leader and introduced him just as he had the day before. The leader approached, introduced himself as Yusangj, a member of the defense and team leader, and asked Jun to speak informally since there was a big age gap between them. Jen replied that if

Chulemen considered Him an older brother, then he would too, adding that he was excited to work with him. Sangjai said he was also looking forward to the collaboration and shook hands with both of them. At that moment, Jun felt immense joy as his copying ability activated, transferring Sang J's skills to him. The system displayed a list of abilities. The first was a unique skill called compressed iron skin at level one, which provided over 1,000 defense points, absorbed 10% of received Damage, and could be used without being registered in the skill list. The second unique skill

was Latif Shield Strike at level 11, which struck the enemy with a shield, drawing their attention, dealing 300 cumulative damage points and increasing aggression rate by 95%. It could be used without being added to the skill pack, but had a 30inut cool down and consumed all energy. The third skill was destruction card at level five, which released an aura capable of Intimidating enemies, drawing their attention, increasing aggression rate by 130% and reducing the target's attack power by 10%. It was executed instantly with a 1-hour cool down and no specific energy consumption. Jun chose to copy

the destruction card and compressed iron skin abilities and the system began integrating them into his database. After some time, the system announced the copying process had been successful and that the copied skills were now Available in the skill list. Jun was ecstatic, especially since the handshake had lasted only a brief moment, yet the copying process had occurred at an incredible speed during that time. Sang noticed Jun's inexplicable happiness and found it strange. Cho Min also picked up on it and asked what he was doing. Surprised by the question, Jun listened as Cho Min went on

mentioning his suspicious smile. Sangja laughed and remarked that Jun's grip strength was Unusual for someone with his appearance. Jun quickly let go of the hand, but Sang Jai reassured him, encouraging him to do his best on the mission. Then he said it was time to head to the vehicle waiting for them. Jun looked at the vehicle and saw several people inside. He assumed they were the team members who would accompany him on the mission. They all looked extremely powerful with impressive abilities. Sangjai instructed Jun to greet the team members before Departure. Jun realized that everyone

around him was a first class awakened, which meant that once he started copying their rare and unique abilities, they would no longer seem so exceptional. Even if he had to discard some of the skills later, he knew it was essential to copy them now. He aborted the vehicle with the team and the group set off toward their destination. During the ride, Jun managed to copy about 13 skills. He noticed that some team Members had healing abilities and realized how valuable those could be. Additionally, there were mapping and trap setting skills that also caught his interest.

Among the acquired skills, seven were combat-based, all incredibly powerful. Jun felt that joining this mission had been one of his best decisions, as it would allow him to perform the roles of healer, defender, attacker, mapper, and trap specialists. After a while, the team arrived at their Destination, an abandoned and evacuated area due to the presence of monsters. As soon as they arrived, the monsters began attacking the hunters. Sanji used his shield defense to prevent them from escaping. Jam reflected on the limited number of skills he could store in his skill package. Realizing that their diversity

would make him stronger depending on how he coordinated them. While immersed in these thoughts, Sanja called Lee Dong Hook and signaled the Start of the attack plan. Dong Huk acknowledged the signal and began his assault, firing arrows with extreme precision. Each arrow hit vital points. Next, Sanja called Su Yi Jun, who was positioned on a rooftop and instructed her to eliminate the monsters quickly. Su followed the order, firing a powerful and swift arrow at the strongest monster. Unable to dodge, the creature was fairly hit and fell dead instantly. Sangjai informed the team that only two

Monsters remained. Jon watched from a distance, realizing there wasn't much he could do at that moment. He decided to use the time to register the newly acquired skills, knowing that once registered, he wouldn't be able to change them for the next 24 hours. His original plan was to register as a hunter after completing this mission. But he realized there was no need to wait any longer. After the mission ended, Sanangji approached the team Members and congratulated them on completing another job without complications. He praised Jun, highlighting his endurance, especially considering the unusually high number of

byproducts collected that day compared to previous missions. Normally, these situations were exhausting for porters due to the excessive weight, often leaving them drained. He pointed to one of the porters struggling to carry the load. At that moment, Shulman chimed in Telling Sangja that Jun was known in high school for his strength and firm grip. Sangja showed mild admiration and asked if he was referring to the time before the great catastrophe. Tulleman confirmed, adding that before the disaster, Jun had incredible reflexes and without any training outperformed athletes who were considered his rivals. Stanja joked, asking if

that meant Jun was a troublemaker who used to bully others. Kleman clarified that calling Him a troublemaker would be an exaggeration, explaining that Jun only stood up to bad people and that his dream had been to become a detective when he grew up. He added that if the world hadn't changed, Jun would undoubtedly have become an exceptional detective. Sangja then handed Jun some money as a reward for his efforts. Jun firmly declined, saying he couldn't accept it, as he had previously agreed not to receive any payment. However, Sanji insisted he take it and just be

thankful, pointing out that Jun had been crucial to the mission's success and that the porter wouldn't have been able to handle the load alone. He then asked if Jun had ever considered becoming a full-time porter for hunters, offering to recommend him to a suitable team if he was interested. Jun thanked him and said he would definitely think about the offer. Sanji said his goodbyes, suggesting they meet again if the Opportunity arose. Shel then reminded Jun about the promise to pay for barbecue. Jun replied that it wouldn't happen this time as he had important matters to

deal with first, but promised he'd pay next time. Shu men teased Jun, saying he wasn't used to seeing him so busy, but Jum refused to reveal where he was going. At the Awaken Association building in the SU branch inside one of the offices dedicated to registering hunters in the defender category, the Secretary was visibly surprised by what Jun had just said. With a confused expression, she asked him to repeat and clarify his words. Jun responded that he had come to register as an awakened. The secretary informed him that the office was exclusively for registering defenders

and asked if he was sure he belonged in that category. Jun confirmed confidently, stating that he had awakened as a defender that very day. The secretary stared at him in Astonishment for a moment before speaking again. Jun asked if there was a problem or if something had gone wrong. She reassured him that there was no problem but admitted she was surprised as Jun was the first defender to awaken in the past 6 months. Still, she congratulated him and asked if he had brought his identification card. Jun confirmed and handed it over for verification. The secretary

asked him to sit down and wait until he was called. Jun complied and while waiting, he began reflecting on the past and the life he had lived before. He sighed deeply, feeling as if he were still in a dream. Unable to fully comprehend how far back in time he had come. Memories of his time in prison came flooding back along with the visits from his brothers which had ended tragically in the car accident that killed them. He remembered the anguish of those times, the tears shed, and the crushing pain that consumed him. The death of

his brothers had been the main catalyst for his descent into villain. However, after going back to the past and seeing them alive and well, his feelings completely changed, bringing him immense joy. At first, he thought it was all just a dream and didn't want to wake up. Now, he was determined not to lose the people he loved again. He resolved to use all his strength to protect them, sparing no effort. As he reflected, he activated His skill and opened the system interface, analyzing the reports. He noticed the average endurance levels ranged between 6,000 and 15,000,

while strength levels fluctuated between 2,000 and 5,000. This meant that 15,000 endurance and 5,000 strength were the upper limits for a first awakening. However, he noticed a new feature called core generation, the meaning and utility of which were unknown to him. Jun recalled that Kaiiel hadn't mentioned Anything about this, but concluded that he would figure out its purpose sooner or later. At that moment, the secretary called the name Chui Jung Huk. Jun was caught off guard, his thoughts interrupted, and he turned toward the secretary who had called him. Beside her, a man in a white

lab coat returned his ID card and informed him that the identity verification had been completed and they could proceed with the next steps. The secretary asked Jun to follow The specialist to complete the tests. The specialist extended his hand for a handshake, introducing himself as Lim Jay Hune. Jun returned the gesture, introducing himself as Cho Jun Huk and saying it was a pleasure to meet him. Jihung informed him that everything was ready and they could begin the tests immediately. Jan followed Ji Hun to the testing site, getting into the vehicle with him. During the ride,

Jun realized that Jaiv was a regular person and not An awakened, which meant he couldn't copy any abilities from him. Although Jaim's work with the association had initially made Jun believe he might be awakened, he soon realized that regular people were also part of the team. They finally arrived at the testing chamber where Jihun informed him that the exam would be divided into three stages. The first of which was to assess his endurance and physical strength levels. Once the preparations were complete, Jay Hune said everything was ready and they could begin. Jen took a firm

position in the testing chair while the machines were activated. Jay reassured him, promising the process wouldn't take more than 10 minutes and advised him to stay relaxed and calm. After completing that stage, they moved on to the second phase, which involved testing Jun's special ability, Shield Strike. For this, a simulated monster model was used, which Jun was to fight while Jihon And his team observed his performance from the control room. Jihon explained that the test would also measure his stress levels and assure him the process was simple. Jun understood that his objective was to use

his special skill to strike the simulated monster regardless of the area hit and that he shouldn't hesitate. With great force, Jun activated shield strike and struck the monster. The specialists in the observation room were impressed by the Power and intensity of his blows. They then moved on to the final phase, the overall assessment. June offered Jon a warm drink and informed him that due to certain circumstances, the evaluators for this stage were delayed, which meant the evaluation was postponed for 2 days. Jun took the drink and asked if that meant they were finished for the

day. Jahun confirmed that all previous stages had been completed and directed him to the office to receive the basic Equipment required. Showing gratitude and surprise, Jun commented that he could hardly believe the day had finally come for him to receive gear from the association. Jade Fumu shared his concern about the decline in the number of awakened in the defender and healer categories, highlighting that those numbers had dropped significantly in the last 5 years following the great catastrophe. He explained that although those who awakened through forced Awakening stones helped meet classification requirements, most of them became

fighters or support types. He added that awakening stones for defenders and healers were extremely rare and that even with them, there was no guarantee of a successful awakening. Jen knew this and considered himself lucky to have awakened differently, especially considering his past as a wanted criminal. He was aware that if he were still a criminal, he wouldn't be Able to register as an awakened again. Jihun realized he was talking too much and apologized, explaining that he hadn't met a defender in a long time, which made him more enthusiastic than usual, even though he wasn't someone

who talked much. J reassured him, saying the conversation didn't bother him. June reminded Jun about the final evaluation scheduled for 2 days later and asked him to return at the time specified in the message he would receive the next day. Jun smiled excitedly upon hearing this and shook Jahun's hand with enthusiasm, expressing his anticipation for their next meeting. After completing the procedures at the association center, Jun left and began his journey back home. Carrying the association's bag with a basic equipment for an awakened, he tried calling his friend Shiman to share what happened. After a

while, Chiman finally answered the call and Jun asked if he could talk at that moment. Shelman wanted to know if it was something important. Jun replied that it wasn't urgent, but told him he had awakened as a defender that day and was on his way home. Shaleman was shocked in disbelief and asked if Jun was joking or being serious. J assured him that he wouldn't joke about something like that. As the conversation continued, he entered a building and looked around to confirm he was in the right place. Still skeptical, Chiman asked once more if he

Had really awakened as a defender and not something else. Jim affirmed that he wouldn't lie about something so important and confirmed his awakening as a defender. Cholin expressed his surprise, commenting on how they had just been together recently and how such a monumental event could happen so quickly. Jim paused, staring at an absurdly expensive item on display, sarcastically thinking that anyone willing to pay 3 million for had to be Crazy. After a brief connection drop, Chielman resumed the call and heard Jun explain that he had visited the association that day, registered as an awakened, and

was informed that he would undergo a defender evaluation test in 3 days. Jun commented that watching experienced hunters could help him a lot and asked if he could join them again, even if just as a porter. Chieman replied that he had already seen them earlier. Jun remarked that he had been So busy carrying equipment that he couldn't properly observe Sang Ji during the battle. Laughing, he finally found the item he had been looking for. Feeling a sense of victory and satisfaction, Kolman said he would explain the situation to Sang Ji and get back to him

with an answer later. Jun picked up the bracelet he found and approached the vendor, saying he would buy it along with an elixir. He remembered that this bracelet was an Artifact once possessed by Jaden Russell, the third ranked among the villains. He recalled that before returning to the past when he was an eighth level villain, he had met Jaden, who explained the bracelet's properties and how to use it. The vendor gave Jon a suspicious look, but said nothing. Jun noticed the strange look and recalled Jaden's explanation about the bracelet, including the fact that merely possessing

it increased skill efficiency By 30%. He asked the vendor why he was being stared at and if there was a problem, the vendor apologized and asked if he could ask a question, wanting to know if Jun had awakened that day. Jun confirmed and suddenly he was caught off guard when he saw the vendor preparing to throw a punch. Jun tried to block it, but realized the strike stopped before reaching him. The vendor explained that he knew about Jun's awakening and revealed that he was also an awakened, Possessing a teleportation ability. Jun felt slightly embarrassed upon

realizing that the vendor hadn't meant to attack him, but was greeting him in a unique way. He returned the greeting and successfully copied the vendor's teleportation ability. At that moment, another person appeared, introducing himself as Huang Manso, also an awakened with spatial manipulation abilities. Huang extended his hand and greeting, expressing how pleased he was to meet Him. Jun shook his hand, saying he was also happy to meet them and felt excited to gain the ability he had been meaning so much. The vendor commented that he had overheard Jun's phone conversation and learned about his defender

evaluation test. He added that being a defender was considered a noble classification among the awakened and joked that he felt envious of June. Jun responded that he never expected to meet awakened individuals in that place and Asked if that job was a side gig in addition to their hunter careers. The vendor explained that it was actually his main occupation. Jun was surprised, but the vendor clarified that the large number of support class awakened made it difficult to find work in the field. He added that since his ability wasn't useful in combat, he ended up opening

a small shop to sell supplies and artifacts as a means of livelihood. John reflected on how hard life could be even For the awakened as the vendor handed him the elixir, informing him that the price for both the elixir and the bracelet was 350,000, but he would sell them for 300,000. Jun thanked him and realized that he now had almost everything he needed, including the elixir, the bracelet, and the D-class crystals he have stored at home. He felt that he had gathered most of what he was looking for. He put on the bracelet called the

Twilight bracelet. As soon as He wore it, system minifications appeared, informing him that artifact number 38 out of 101 items created by the original master of the system had been unlocked, registered into the system, and that a total of 16 artifacts were now listed in the artifact registry. The bracelet now fully belonged to Choy Jun Huk, the new master of the system. However, Jun was intrigued by the message and not understanding the meaning behind the 101 Items created by the systems master. At that moment, his phone rang, interrupting his thoughts. Seeing the caller ID, he

realized it was his friend Chielman. Jun quickly answered and asked what the call was about. Chelman said he had spoken with the team leader Sang Gi about Jun's request, but the leader found the idea ridiculous and unbelievable, saying he would only believe it if he saw the change with his own eyes. Jun laughed and told Chelman That he had scared him for a moment, thinking he was about to say the request had been denied. Chelman laughed back, teasing Jun for being so serious. Meanwhile, Jun activated his newly acquired spatial manipulation ability and created a subspace.

Kielman informed Jun that the meeting was scheduled for 7:00 a.m. at gate 7, the same gate as the last mission, and reminded him not to be late. Jun retrieved his bag with the basic gear from the subspace and Assured Chielman that he wouldn't be late and said he'd see him the next day. The next day, Jun arrived at the meeting point and found the entire team already gathered. He greeted them, but their faces showed surprise and amazement at seeing him standing before them in his new combat suit. Shiel Min looked at Jun in disbelief, commenting

that the new outfit confirmed he had really awakened as a defender and that it wasn't a joke. Sangji also expressed his surprise. Even Though Chu Min had already mentioned the situation to him, he asked Jun what could have happened in a single day to cause such a drastic change. Slightly embarrassed, Jun replied that he had awakened as a defender. While heading home the previous day, Captain Sangja responded, saying he knew that natural awakening rates had significantly decreased recently and that what had happened to Jun was truly remarkable. Jun answered that he had already Mentioned this

to Chol Min, but was still waiting for his evaluation test as a defender the next day. That's why he decided to join the team that day to observe Captain Sang Gi while he gave orders. Believing that this experience could help him, he apologized if his request caused any inconvenience. Captain Sangja replied, saying he didn't know if there was anything he could teach Jun, but offered a simple piece of advice as someone who had started in the Job before him. The captain asked Jun if he knew the real reason for carrying a shield, emphasizing that it

wasn't just about being a defender, but about choosing to be one. He added that during battles against monsters, there would be moments when Jun would feel exhausted and drained. At those specific times, what would help him get back up wouldn't be his stats or skills, but his determination and resolve. After those motivational words, Jun departed with The team toward the mission site, which was in a school courtyard. There, they spotted a huge monster resembling a giant bear. Each team member took their position and temporarily hid. Kathn Sanji asked if they had already identified the monster

and its type, and the team confirmed. He ordered Jeng De Jun to check the monster's location using his skill. Dejun used his map creation ability and a detailed map of the area showing the monster's position Appeared before the captain. Sangjai examined the map and informed the team that both the type and location of the monster had been identified. He announced that in fact there were two monsters, not just one, and both were of the advanced class. However, their attack power was low and their movement slow. On the other hand, their defenses were equivalent to those

of classy monsters. Chi Yolo Min expressed concern, fearing the team might not be Strong enough to take on the monsters. Dong Huck replied they already felt exhausted even before the mission started. He asked how long it might take to break the monster shields and added that attacking one might provoke retaliation from the other, which was in the sports court. Sanangji acknowledged that possibility, but pointed out that the monster's slow movement was an advantage. He added that their team was one of the most experienced in handling Such situations, and as long as they follow the plan,

there would be no obstacles. The team's healer assured that monsters with weak attacks wouldn't be a problem that day. Although the fighters might face some difficulties, Captain Samji asked Ji Chi if the traps were in the designated locations, and Gi Chi confirmed everything was ready. The captain then ordered Chi Yol Min and Dong Huk to go with him while Hiio and Jun Huk were to remain in their Positions until further orders. The team moved to confront the monsters, but Jun felt a growing sense of apprehension. His concern deepened, especially remembering what he had heard about

the complete annihilation of Sang J's group caused by the unexpected appearance of another monster during a mission. Jun thought that if the mentioned monster was similar to the ones there, the group wouldn't have much trouble defeating it. However, something felt off and Jun Looked toward the building, sensing something was missing in the plan. As Captain Sangju began executing his strategy, he asked Yi Jyn if she was in position to fire. She replied that she was ready. The captain gave the signal and she immediately fired a powerful and fast arrow at the monster. However, the arrow

failed to penetrate the monster's robust shield, causing no damage. Ejin announced she would move to another position since the first attack had been Ineffective. The captain expressed frustration, commenting that things were unfolding exactly as he predicted and that the mission wouldn't be easy. The monster awoke from its slumber, enraged and ready to attack. The captain shouted a warning to the team, advising them the monster was moving and ordering them to execute the plan quickly. Chay Yolin and Dong Hec responded that they were fully prepared. The monster charged toward them and began to attack fiercely. Dong

Huck tried to hit weak spots not covered by the shield and managed to land three direct hits with his arrows. The monster roared in pain, momentarily halting its assault. Feeling confident, Dong Hut believed he had made significant progress, but Captain Sang Ji warned him to stay focused and keep a safe distance. Ignoring the captain's instructions, Dong Huk declared he would move in to finish the mission quickly as he was feeling exhausted. He rushed Toward the monster, firing several more arrows before the creature collapsed to the ground. Dong Huk expressed a desire to finish the mission

and go home to rest. He continued bombarding the monster with arrows, disregarding the captain's warnings. He replied to the captain, saying the monster was too slow to retaliate effectively. To everyone's surprise, the monster suddenly lunged at Dong Huck with immense force, striking him directly and hurling him against the Wall with great impact. Chiay Min feared for Dong Huk's safety, but couldn't abandon his position. As the monster approached Dong Huk, Chi Yol Min informed the captain he was joining the fight. Chiol Min leaped high into the air and struck the monster with a sharp blow from

his weapon, managing to pierce its sturdy shield. However, the damage was minimal. Chiay men realized the shield's incredible durability, making the monster a formidable opponent. The Monster continued advancing toward Dong Huk, preparing to deliver a fatal blow with its sharp claws. Don Kimuk was paralyzed with fear, unable to escape or defend himself. In a critical moment, Captain Sang J interveneed with incredible speed, intercepting the monster's attack with a powerful blow from his shield. The force of the strike pushed the monster back, providing a moment of relief. The monster quickly recovers, becoming even more aggressive And

violent in its attacks. Captain Sang Ji struggles to block the monster's blows while giving commands to the team. He instructs Chi Yul Min to prepare for a close-range strike while assigning Dong Huk and Yin to maintain long range attacks. The captain uses his skill to draw the monsters full attention to himself. The monster attacks Sang Ji ferociously, delivering a series of powerful and relentless strikes. Sanangji uses his shield with all his Strength to block the assault. Meanwhile, the rest of the team joins the fight, launching deadly arrows at the monster, trying to break its tough

defenses and defeat it. Dong Huk signals to Ya Jin that it's the perfect time to fire. Without hesitation, Yin shoots an arrow with precision, hitting the monster directly in the head. However, the attack isn't lethal enough. The monster shifts into a defensive stance, shielding itself with its robust armor. Seizing the opportunity, Captain Sang Jag calls Chi Yol Min for a close-range strike. The team attacks from different angles, coordinating their efforts against the monster. The captain orders the team to continue their main assaults until further instructions. While struggling to break through the monster's defense, Sha Yo

Min comments that just looking at its shield makes him feel exhausted. He and Captain Sangj continue their relentless attacks as Jun Watches their efforts intently. The healer comments that if they're lucky, the mission might end right there. However, she expresses her frustration, saying that their team always gets the hardest missions. Jun is surprised by her comment and asks what she means. The healer explains that armored monsters are extremely rare and a lucky hunter might encounter one once or twice a year. Curious, Jen asks how many times their team has faced armored monsters. She replies that

their team has encountered them three times in the past 6 months, calling it pure bad luck. She adds that Jun seems quite eager to learn given how many questions he's asking. Jon apologizes if he's bothering her, but she pulls out a small device and hands it to him. Jun asks about the device and its purpose. She explains that it's called the Garham M7, a measurement device developed by the Garum company. She suggests that since Jun is there to observe monster hunting strategies in preparation for his test, simply watching might not be enough. She advises him

to use the device to analyze statistics and combat details, which could help him in both the test and future challenges. The healer explains that the armored monster has 30,000 health points, while it shield has 150,000 defense points, an incredibly high level compared to most monsters. Feeling frustrated, Jun comments that it Would take a lifetime to break such a shield. At that moment, the mapper announces a serious problem. The vital signs of the team assigned to deal with the second monster have suddenly disappeared from the map. Captain Sang J is stunned and demands an explanation about

the sudden disappearance of Sang Nam's entire team. Jean, sensing something is wrong, looks toward the building where that team had been stationed. He notices the building is Shaking violently. Suddenly, the wall collapses and a strange creature emerges. It's a giant mantis heading toward the team. Jon immediately realizes the gravity of the situation and the difficulty the team will face dealing with this new threat. The team members panic knowing they haven't yet defeated the first monster and now have to face a second. They ask how much time is left before the mantis reaches them and discover

they have less than two Minutes. Captain Sam G shouts ordering Jun Hook and Highio to leave the area immediately and find a safer location. At that moment, Jun understands that the sense of danger he had felt earlier was due to the presence of this deadly mantis nearby. The captain orders Ja to prepare the containment traps and Yin to stay in position and be ready. Jun grabs Hiu's hand, urging her to quickly leave the danger zone. Hiio nervously agrees, saying yes, but is shocked when Jun Leads her toward Captain Sanchi and the second armored monster instead

of retreating. She asks him why they're going in that direction, and he replies that retreating from this distance is practically impossible. If the monster catches them, they'll be torn apart. Captain Sang Jian notices Jon approaching and yells at him, ordering him to retreat according to the previous instructions. Jon confidently replies that retreat is no longer an option as The mantis is much faster than they are. He adds that dealing with the armored monster would take over 30 minutes and if the mantis joins the fight, they'll all be wiped out. Meanwhile, the gigantic mantis quickly flies

toward the team. It reaches Jim's position where he stands holding his shield, ready for the attack. Jun turns to the team and tells them that their only option now is to hold out for as long as possible. Koi Jun Huk is questioned by a colleague Asking if he's gone mad because of his audacity. The colleague seems worried about Junhuk's actions. He argues that not all awaken are the same, claiming that the colleague is a rookie with no real combat experience.

The other man accuses Jun Huk of using that thing hyperception which he used during tough fights in high school. He explains that he means hyper perception and recalls that using the skill previously caused severe headaches for a whole day. Jun

Huk's movements make no sense unless he used his hyper perception. He then asks if the other is okay. Maybe due to the awakening, the man says he's envious Since people succeed doing what they do.

Then Jun Huk says, "Hi Sue's name." He asks that whoever has something to say speak now. The woman jokingly says she'll stop healing people. Then Jun Huk apologizes for needing to take a call, but the woman

asks if it's his girlfriend. The protagonist explains that his siblings are at home. Then the phone shows an Incoming call from the association. He responds with a confused, "Huh?" A scene shows tall buildings at night. Jan Huk is in a white room and asks if his test has been moved up. A man explains that hunters sent to Thailand are returning.

The Thailand mission. He understands that the association is focused on the Thailand mission. Jun Huk realizes that the association wants to get rid of him quickly. He answers the phone, says he understands, and will start immediately, apologizing for the rush. Jun Huk is informed that the test will be a simulated battle in a virtual combat room using specialized equipment, and that the simulation is similar to the simulation room from before a Regression.

the score, and states that preparations are complete. Three people in business attire observe. The man asks if the judges can begin now. One of them looks a nodance.

The protagonist thinks to himself that if he

plays it right, he might copy the creature's skills. He smiles confidently, saying he might be lucky. Jun Huk says he just needs to pass the test for now, dodging the creature's attack. He thinks that even someone Powerful would need extraordinary senses to do what he's doing. While dodging the attack, the protagonist notes that the average hunting time is 4 hours and that his results exceed the previous ones. He fears that results that are too good might raise the association's suspicions. John Huk is practicing using precise and effective movements to defend himself. He thinks to himself

that if he keeps this up long enough without overexerting, no one will Suspect a thing. This time using a shield, he reasons that if he fills the time without much effort, no one will be suspicious. He continues his defensive practice for three uninterrupted hours using the shield to block imaginary strikes. The man in the lab coat comments that he's maintained the same defensive movements for three straight hours. Intrigued, he wonders if he should keep watching Jun Huk as he seems confident and secretive. He suspects the Judges have probably already noticed something. The judge is surprised

by the reactions of the other judges observing Jun Huk. He comments on how they're witnessing the emergence of an exceptional talent, an amateur with great potential. The woman observes that Jun Huick only reacts perfectly when there's an opening and immediately returns to position, maintaining calm behavior. The other judge remarks that the most surprising thing is how Jun Huk Can perform complex defenses with minimal movement non-stop for 3 hours. The woman interrupts her observation to go to the restroom, apologizing and saying she'll be right back. The judge complains he ate too much at breakfast and needs

to use the bathroom, too. Meanwhile, the judge with glasses notes that another person is very clever, comparing them to a rat. He states that continuing the test doesn't make much sense. The lab coat guy expresses Surprise at what was said. On the phone, the man in the green tie says he'll step out for a moment. The woman in red calls someone saying it's about the tank test and its maximum potential. The person on the phone says Jun Huk is incredible. He asks what exactly is meant by incredible. And the caller reminds him that textile movements

are the hardest ones. Another man on the line says someone is absolutely perfect. He says in his opinion, something is correct. While Jun Hook pushes a large stone block with his shield and he's planning an action with other guilds, but says if they're not the first to act, they need to stop the others from moving. He says they need to ensure no one else makes a move. A woman hands a registration card to a man. She congratulates him on the great work and gives him his registration certificate. The man looks at the card he received.

The woman says it's impressive that he got a C rank on His first awakening. He asks why a C rank and if there's a problem with that. She explains that it's rare to get a C rank on the first awakening and that usually is between E and D ranks. He wonders why he got a C-rank since he only fought trying to conserve as much energy as possible. The protagonist says anyway his awakening registration is now complete. Junhuk thinks about living a peaceful life with his younger siblings. He just wants to do good things. A girl

Declares her love for Jan Huk, calling him Aparano. He responds with a surprised hum. He tells his sister Jayan how beautiful she is and that he loves her.

Kang Jay Yian ranked as the second best domestic negotiator and sorceress. Kim Yong-ho ranked as the best domestic hunter and Lee Dau ranked as the best domestic Tank. Jun Hook observes Lee Dau and comments on his serious and intimidating expression. He worries that he may have irritated

Lee Dau and wonders if something bad will happen. He's concerned about Dau's reputation for being moody and he decides to move forward regardless of whether his decision succeeds or fails. He's surrounded by them, a question mark practically hovering over his head. Junhuk expresses his admiration, saying He's a fan. A nervous smile accompanies his words. He reinforces his admiration, emphasizing how honored he is to meet them. He seems a bit shy and embarrassed. The woman suggests that Jun Huk should autograph something for her, but Jun Huk tries to correct the misunderstanding, saying that's not what he

meant. He reveals that he's a fan of Lee Dau, not of Jun Huk. The man in the red shirt asks what Junhuk said. He wonders if he said something wrong. The Man in red asks again what Jun Huk said, showing irritation and impatience. Junek remains silent, clearly shaken, and unsure of what to say in response. Lee Gau asks the protagonist about his serious expression, wondering what's with that face. He comments that the man's appearance makes him look like a highle villain. Jenhuk asks if the man in red is trying to pick a fight with him,

but Lee Dauu asks the other man what he just said. The protagonist says He's a fan of Lee Dau. The man comments on what just happened, asking if the others heard. The blonde guy and a woman laugh with the woman saying they're almost there. The protagonist responds with a confused huh. Kim Jian complains about a monkey that appeared, but also says she has fans. 30 minutes earlier in the car, the woman reacts with disbelief, questioning the information. She recounts an incident where Dau kicked someone out for saying they were A fan, finding them annoying. She

says she's never seen anyone claim to be a fan of Dau before, showing disbelief. Kang Jayun doubts the story, saying she doesn't believe she's ever seen someone like that before, indicating skepticism about the earlier claim. And she says she doesn't like men who lie. The man introduces himself as Lee Dazu, the best tanker in the country, questioning the woman's belief that he wouldn't have any fans. She says that if at least one Person shows up as a Dasu fan before they get to the association, she'll take him to a romantic dinner alone. The man is

surprised and excited by the proposal and says he needs the woman's help. If no fans show up, he asks what kind of help she means seem a bit unsure. Kang Jay explains that they're going to hunt a highle monster and need a strong tanker because the current group is lacking in that role. She explains the bet. If they lose, Dazu will have to act As the main tanker for the group just once. He expresses surprise, saying that something is for free. Then he smiles widely, looking pleased. The woman crosses her arms and stares with a

challenging expression. Lee Dau strongly asks if the protagonist is his fan, repeating the question for confirmation.
